"Terror leader: Fox News files 'lying reports'
Group representing al-Qaida tells WND abduction of reporters to punish America"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "TEL AVIV -- Fox News is controlled by Jews and Zionists, files "lying reports" from the Middle East and treats all Muslims as terrorists, the leader of a terror group that claims it represents the interests of al-Qaida in Gaza told WorldNetDaily in an interview today.
"Fox News is one more proof that all the media organizations in America are controlled by the Zionist lobby and the Jews. The journalistic policy of Fox is too pro-Israel. We are all terrorists in the eyes of Fox. It never tries to give an accurate image of what is happening on the ground. They show what is the opposite when it comes to Muslims," said Abu Mohammed, leader of the Palestine Army of Islam.
The Palestine Army of Islam is one of three terror groups that claimed responsibility in June for the kidnapping of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit. The group is a splinter of the Popular Resistance Committees, a coalition of terror organizations operating in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
Abu Mohammed said although his group works with the Committees, it formed its own organization because the Committees was "not Muslim enough." He said his group is the closest Palestinian organization ideologically to al-Qaida.
The Committees itself is accused of orchestrating attacks along with groups affiliated with al-Qaida and has in the past carried out anti-American attacks. Israel says the Committees was responsible for the bombing of a U.S. convoy in Gaza in 2003 in which three American government contractors were killed.
After nearly two weeks of silence, an unknown Palestinian terror organization took credit today for kidnapping Fox News journalist Steve Centanni and his cameraman, Olaf Wiig.
The Holy Jihad Battalion says they have the two Fox News employees. Analysts are speculating the group is a front for al-Qaida."

"Federal case in sting trial detailed
Documents show former wife of accused man is ready to testify about an anti-Semitic statement"
By MICHELE MORGAN BOLTON, Staff writer
First published: Saturday, August 12, 2006
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "ALBANY -- The ex-wife of a city pizza owner charged in an FBI counterterrorism sting is ready to testify next month that he once told her he hates Jews, according to court papers filed by federal prosecutors.
The woman, who split from Mohammed Mosharref Hossain in 1992, also claims he married her to obtain a green card and then divorced her once he was naturalized, documents said.
Hundreds of pages of information now part of the record in U.S. District Court in Albany offer more insight into the federal case against Hossain and Yassin Muhiddin Aref, a Kurdish refugee and mosque leader who moved to Albany with his family in 1999."
ARTICLE SNIPPET #2: "Aref has been denied bail five times.
Federal authorities describe the mosque leader as a religious scholar with strong links to some of the world's most notorious terrorists, including Mullah Krekar, founder of a violent Iraqi terrorist organization with ties to al-Qaida.
Defense lawyers said the case against Hossain is "guilt by association." They hope to ban the testimony of two witnesses who are experts on missiles and the formation and structure of Islamist groups, their ideology and members."

"Somali jihadists open militia camp"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Hello Mother... Hello Fathah... Greetings from Camp... Jihad fi sabil Allah.
Somali Jihad Update from the Hizballah News Agency, aka Reuters:
MOGADISHU (Reuters) - Somalia's powerful Islamist movement opened a militia training camp on Wednesday with trainers from Eritrea, Afghanistan and Pakistan, witnesses said.
The presence of foreign trainers points to what many fear is a growing internationalization of a crisis that has split the Horn of Africa nation and threatened the slim authority of its interim government.
The Islamists' hardline leader, Shiekh Hassan Dahir Aweys, attended the opening of the camp for more than 600 Islamist militiamen at Hiilweyne, north of Mogadishu.
"You will study military tactics, because you will defend your country with Islamic morality," Aweys told the recruits.
Witnesses identified foreign trainers from Eritrea, Pakistan and Afghanistan at the camp."

Iranian foot-dragging may compel Israel to 'go it alone'

ug. 24, 2006 0:30 | Updated Aug. 24, 2006 3:31 Iranian foot-dragging may compel Israel to 'go it alone' By HERB KEINON [Print this Article] [EMail this Article] [Subscribe] [SMS Alerts] [JPost Toolbar] [JPost ePaper]
Israel is carefully watching the world's reaction to Iran's continued refusal to suspend uranium enrichment, with some high-level officials arguing it is now clear that when it comes to stopping Iran, Israel "may have to go it alone," The Jerusalem Post has learned.
One senior source said on Tuesday that Iran "flipped the world the bird" by not responding positively to the Western incentive plan to stop uranium enrichment. He expressed frustration that the Russians and Chinese were already saying that Iran's offer of a "new formula" and willingness to enter "serious negotiations" was an opening to keep on talking.
"The Iranians know the world will do nothing," he said. "This is similar to the world's attempts to appease Hitler in the 1930s - they are trying to feed the beast."

I was listening to the G. Gordon Liddy show yesterday, and he was talking about yet another airline incident. He stated that for some reason, it isn't being reported in the MSM, only on his show.
You're right - it's enough.
>>>In his new book "Terror on the Internet: The New Arena, the New Challenges,"
Another one I'd like to read.
Excellent links, Mamdearest.
Should be an interesting trial.
WOW!
Do you recall the incident Liddy described?
|
Yes, a flammable liquid in a drink bottle was discovered hidden behind a coffee maker in the galley. It was found right before landing, and would have spilled if it hadn't been discovered. I think he said it wasn't there at the beginning of the flight. I may be wrong, but I could have sworn he said UAL flight 94, which creeped me out.
