TSA puts extra layers of security in place following Christmas bombing attempt.

Hawaiian Flight 39 was about 40 minutes into its trip to Maui’s Kahului airport when, at 12:30 p.m. PST, the pilot reported a disturbance.

The two planes intercepted the flight at about 1 p.m. and then escorted it back to Portland, according to the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD).

The Boeing 767 headed back to the Portland airport, landing at 1:16 p.m. Law enforcement officers met the plane upon arrival and the passenger was removed. http://bit.ly/8VzR1c

Indian mujahideen planning 9/11 type attack

A 9/11-type terror attack using hijacked aeroplanes stares India in the face with an Indian Mujahideen terrorist having acquired pilot training and waiting to strike, according to intelligence agencies.


 
Intelligence Bureau (IB) sources say Shahzad Ahmed alias Pappu, one of the key accused in the September 2008 Delhi blasts case, learnt to fly planes in Bangalore and could now be planning to execute an airborne terror strike. A dozen other trained Indian Mujahideen terrorists are also at large and, together with Shahzad, pose a big security threat.

Jihadis inside the gate

Snip: .....the enemy is not just getting closer: he’s inside the gates. And the reason is because current U.S. national security policy is simply not adequate to the Islamic jihad challenge that’s coming at us.

US a house divided on terrorism

Snip: There's also a caution that engaging al-Qaida as though you're fighting a life-size game of "Risk" on a big map of the world against a single, mobile villain could inspire under-governed, lawless countries to see an al-Qaida franchise as the key to a new kind of fear-based security development.

Rogue Imam Anwar Al Awlaki's DVDs for sale in London - in America too?

Snip: Here is the text of Awlaki's speech "Constants on the Path of Jihad." http://theforceofreason.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Constants-on-the-Path-of-Jihad.pdf

It is readily available all over the Internet and there is even a video of it on Google. Why don't Google and the Feds get this jihadi hate rhetoric off the Internet?

The speeches of Awlaki available for sale online at places such as http://www.onlineislamicstore.com/audio-speeches-and-discourses-by-imam-anwar-al-awlaki.html. It seems obvious that al Qaeda has an enormous presence online and they are recruiting via the use of Awlaki's speeches.

UN suspends food aid to southern Somalia
