It’s rather fascinating, how much leverage Wilkinson had, and how pivotal he was to Burr’s plans, which didn’t always jive with Wilkinson’s.

Wilkinson awaited a provocation from Spain, which despite some efforts to provoke a confrontation never materialized.
That was to be the trigger for the invasion of Mexico, a new country in America, the seperation of Mexico from Spain.....no one really knew.

Early secessionist tendencies of the Kentuckians, Ohioans and Tennesseans were a reaction to the high prices of tobacco in New Orleans and the restrictions placed on trade with Spain by the Eastern Colonies.

Anyway, New Madrid was apparently one of the most forward forts set up by the Spanish.

Al-Qaeda: Our Operatives in Yemen Will Strike GCC Oil Facilities, Hit Hard at ‘Immorality’ in Dubai

Deputy leader of al Qaeda in Yemen, Said al-Shahri

SANAA, 09 Oct — In a statement published by Islamist internet websites, al-Qaeda network Friday said its operatives in Yemen “constitute an advanced front to strike oil installations in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries,” and condemned what it dubbed “perversion and immorality in Dubai.” Al-Yaqeen press centre quoted an unidentified al-Qaeda militant as saying “we know where the next strike will be but we don’t know the timing or the purposes,” adding “the number of American fighters joining al-Qaeda is growing but for organizational reasons, we don’t reveal their numbers.” “Many university teachers in western countries started contacting us and providing us with important information,” said the unidentified militant, adding “the families of killed American nationals also began contacting us,” and “if the entire population of Texas were to perish, we would not have done our duty to the Muslims. We will continue to fight the Americans and will never let them go,” stressing “the US administration never represented the people and seeks to achieve its own personal interests.” He said al-Qaeda network is “fully aware of the axiom: Fight your enemy with the weapon he fears not the weapon you fear,” adding “what al-Qaeda’s enemies fear most is a biological or chemical strike.” Meanwhile, Interior Minister General Brigadier Mutaher Rashad al-Masri Thursday said security agencies in Yemen are “closely monitoring the movements of al-Qaeda operatives.”

“Terror Arrests in Yemen: From The American to Al-Sakhi to The Australians Who Go Free”
Filed under: Al-Qaeda, Judicial, Somalia, Yemen, prisons — by Jane Novak at 8:10 am on Thursday, December 14, 2006
All around the mulberry bush

SNIPPET: “Short story: Previously under investigation in the US, American Iman Anwar al-Alwaki a/k/a Abu Atiq a/k/a Anwar al-Aulaqi was recently arrested in Yemen. His arrest led investigators to another group connected to September’s thwarted terror bombings in which two of the February al-Qaeda escapees were killed.

The al-Awlaki arrest also led to a later arrest of eight foreigners accused of smuggling guns to Somalia for al-Qaeda including a Dane, a Briton, a German, a Somali, three Australians, and a European of undetermined nationality who may be Austrian. One media report indicates the group was under surveillance by Western intelligence and the arrests disrupted an otherwise productive intelligence operation; other sources dispute this. The Dane is known as Abu Zakaria, whose given name is Kenneth Sorensen. The central figure was reportedly a Somali named al-Ansar. This group of eight included the Australian Ayub brothers, sons of JI leader Abdul Rahim Ayub, who fled Australia after the Bali bombings. Seven of the eight confessed according to the official Yemeni media. However six of eight were subsequently released without charges.

Details: American Anwar Al Awlaki a/k/a Abu Atik was was arrested in Yemen 8/31/06. Born in New Mexico of Yemeni parents, al-Awlaki was the Muslim Chaplin in Residence at George Washington University. He was also reported to be an associate of two of the 9/11 highjackers and a protege of Sheik Zindani.

According to FSM: “MAB (The Muslim Association of Britian) had invited American imam Anwar Al Awlaki to talk in Britain in June 2003. Awlaki was the spiritual adviser of two of the 9/11 attackers, Khalid Almihdar and Nawaf Alhazmi,. Twice busted for soliciting prostitutes in San Diego, Awlaki is still regarded by many Muslim websites as a “pure voice” of Islam. He fled to Yemen, and on August 31 this year, he was arrested in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, suspected of involvement in terror networks.””

“Report: Major Hasan Tried to Contact Al Qaeda”
Monday, November 09, 2009

SNIPPET: “Army psychiatrist Major Nidal Hasan is suspected of a deadly rampage at the Fort Hood base in Texas.

U.S. intelligence agencies were reportedly aware months ago that Army Major Nidal Hasan was trying to contact people associated with Al Qaeda, ABC News reported.”

The report comes as news surfaced that the family of the alleged Fort Hood shooter held his mother’s funeral at the same Virginia mosque that two Sept. 11 hijackers attended in 2001, at a time when a radical imam preached there.”

SNIPPET: “The family of Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the Army psychiatrist who killed 13 and wounded 29 at the Texas military base, held his mother’s funeral at the Dar al Hijrah Islamic Center in Falls Church, Va., on May 31, 2001, according to her obituary in the Roanoke Times newspaper.

In 2001, Anwar Aulaqi was an imam, or spiritual leader, at the Washington-area mosque. Aulaqi told the FBI in 2001 that, before he moved to Virginia in early 2001, he met with 9/11 hijacker Nawaf al-Hazmi several times in San Diego. Al-Hazmi was at the time living with Khalid al-Mihdhar, another hijacker. Al-Hazmi and another hijacker, Hani Hanjour, attended the Dar al Hijrah mosque in Virginia in early April 2001.”

“Investigating Ft. Hood: Anwar al-Awlaki’s “Constants on the Path of Jihad”
By Evan Kohlmann”

SNIPPET: “One of the key questions for investigators who are now looking into potential links between radical Yemeni-American cleric Anwar al-Awlaki and the accused perpetrator of the massacre at Ft. Hood, Maj. Malik Nidal Hasan, is understanding to what degree al-Awlaki’s extreme sermons may have influenced Hasan’s actions. Toward that end, they should be keeping an especially close eye out for one such al-Awlaki sermon in particular—”Constants on the Path of Jihad”—which itself is based upon an Arabic-language text penned by the founder of Al-Qaida’s network in Saudi Arabia, Yousef al-Ayyiri. In order to bring al-Ayyiri’s words to an English-speaking audience, al-Awlaki dedicated a lengthy lecture to his work—a lecture that over time has become the “virtual bible” for lone wolf Muslim extremists. In “Constants”, al-Awlaki argues:

“Jihad does not end with the disappearance of a person. Jihad must continue regardless because it does not depend on any particular leader or individual… Jihad does not depend on any particular land. It is global. When the Muslim is in his land, he performs jihad… No borders or barriers stop it. The message cannot be conveyed without jihad. If a particular people or nation is classified as… ‘the people of war’ in the Shariah, that classification applies to them all over the earth. Islam cannot be customized to suit the conditions where you are, for instance Europe.”

According to Awlaki, al-Ayyiri also instructed that “victory” cannot be limited to mere “military victories” alone, and should also include “sacrifice. The Mujahid sacrificing ‘his self’ and his wealth is victory. Victory of your idea, your religion. If you die for your religion, your death will spread the da`wa… Allah chooses Shuhada (martyrs) from amongst the believers. This is a victory.””

Special Dispatch - No. 2638
November 9, 2009 No. 2638

“U.S.-Born Yemen-Based Imam Anwar Al-Awlaki on His CA-Hosted Website: Fort Hood Shooter ‘Nidal Hassan Is A Hero’”

SNIPPET: “On October 21, 2009, MEMRI published two reports on U.S.-born imam Anwar Al-Awlaki: Special Dispatch No. 2610, “U.S.-Born Imam Anwar Al-Awlaki on the State of Jihad Eight Years After 9/11: The U.S. Cannot Win - There is No Rolling Back the Worldwide Jihad” [1] and Al-Awlaki’s article “44 Ways of Supporting Jihad,” on the MEMRI Jihad and Terrorism Threat Monitor. [2]

Following the November 5, 2009 shooting at Fort Hood army base in Texas, in which Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan is accused of killing 13 and wounding 29, the connection between Hasan and Al-Awlaki came to light; Hasan’s family attended the Dar al Hijrah Islamic Center in Falls Church, VA, where Al-Awlaki was preaching in 2001, [3] and Hasan, according to a Fort Hood acquaintance, was an admirer of Al-Awlaki [4] and expressed “deep respect” for his teachings. [5] Previously, the FBI linked the mosque to two of the 9/11 hijackers. [6]

On November 9, Al-Awlaki published an article on his website Anwar-alawlaki.com, in which he called Hasan a “hero” and “a man of conscience who could not bear living the contradiction of being a Muslim and serving in an army that is fighting against his own people.”

President, Top Leaders to Attend Fort Hood Service

By Jim Garamone
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9, 2009 – President Barack Obama will join Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates, Joint Chiefs Chairman Navy Adm. Mike Mullen, Army Secretary John M. McHugh and Army Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey Jr. at Fort Hood, Texas, tomorrow for a ceremony to honor the victims of the Nov. 5 shooting rampage that left 13 dead and 38 wounded.
Many of those wounded in the attack have recovered enough to attend the ceremony, said Army Lt. Gen. Robert W. Cone, commander of 3rd Corps and Fort Hood.

“We still have 15 of our great soldiers hospitalized; eight are in intensive care, and seven are in wards,” Cone said during a news conference at Fort Hood today. “Our thoughts and prayers go out to them and their families during this difficult time.”

Cone said he is most concerned that the healing phase begins. “I think what’s absolutely critical is that we understand the nature of what has happened here,” he told reporters. “There are probably about 600 people who were somehow directly touched by this incident.”

Cone said authorities’ initial focus in these last three days has been working on getting those 600 people the right behavioral assessments and counseling.

Now, officials are dealing with the larger population at the sprawling post. “I had a very good session yesterday with … the civilian personnel and the soldiers who worked at the soldier readiness site, and had a good opportunity to address their concerns,” Cone said. “And … they began their processing through this critical-incident debrief process.”

Soldiers are among the best prepared to deal with the stress of this incident, the general noted, because they have had training and experience. “Many of us are used to being in theater, and something like this happens, and we come back right away. We get on with the mission. We do the memorial service, we send our comrades home, and then we move on with the mission,” he said.

But dealing with the civilians and families poses more of a challenge. They’ve always considered the base to be a safe place, Cone noted, and now officials must devise ways to help them. “We are right now in the process of executing a comprehensive program to address the needs of all of these populations,” he said.

Officials also must find ways to help soldiers who suffered post-traumatic stress from earlier combat-related incidents, Cone said. They, too, saw Fort Hood as a safe place. “We don’t really know what the impact of something like this has on them,” the general acknowledged.

The Army has mobilized resources to help, with 27 military family life consultants, 18 combat stress control teams, 41 behavioral health specialists and 57 ministry support teams on the ground at Fort Hood.

“We have additional resources coming in as we need it,” Cone said. “As General Casey tells me, the entire resources of the United States Army are at the disposal of Fort Hood and its population to help deal with the impact of this event.”

People who wish to donate to aid the victims and the families have a number of options.

Checks can be mailed to:

Chaplain’s Fund Office
Bldg 44, 761st Tank Battalion Ave.
Fort Hood, TX 76544-5000

Checks should be made payable to “CTOF” — which stands for Chapel’s Tithes and Offerings Fund — with a note on the memo line stating “Nov. 5 Tragedy.”

Contributions on behalf of Fort Hood soldiers also can be made to:

Fisher House
Bldg 36015, Fisher Lane
Fort Hood, TX 76544

For questions about the Fisher House operation, phone 254-286-7927 or 254-286-7929.

Donations also can be made through the Red Cross:

Killeen Red Cross
208 W. Ave. A
Killeen, TX 76541
Phone 254-200-4400 or visit http://www.waco.redcross.org.

Finally, donations can be made through the USO:

USO Fort Hood
Building 1871, 50th St.
Fort Hood, TX 76544
Phone: 254-768-2771 or visit http://www.uso.org.

In related news, the Army Criminal Investigation Command is seeking anyone who may have left the area of the shooting with gunshot damage to their vehicles or clothing, and anyone who may inadvertently have left the scene with material that could be used as evidence — shell casings inside their boot, for example.

The evidence would aid CID and FBI investigators, officials said.

Officials said gunshot-damaged material needs to be inspected by the soldier’s or civilian’s supervisor or chain of command, and commanders or first sergeants must verify that the person providing the evidence was at the scene.

Not sure what you mean. The second frame was a lot of work as I did a lot of painting on the clothes and arm moves. They did not match up well at first.
