There must have been 10 articles indexed by thie page that I wanted to post, but I am too lazy to post them all. Taken as a whole this is one of the better series I have seen lately.

The series starting with "THE PROOF THEY DIDN'T REVEAL" is very interesting and their site is easy to step through into the other articles.

"Warlord has plans for global revolt" is also good. Bet it will be posted independently.

These are also great:
America searches for the perfect weapon of attack
The military offensive - very good
Cloaked spies watch Taliban's men dig in round Kabul

Everyone remember to keep praying about the jailed Christian Aid Workers in Afghanistan. May God protect them in every way.

Great article. Ever notice how these articles NEVER mention Iraq or anyone from there. Embassy bombings were on the same date as the start of the Gulf War, first WTC bombing was on the same date as the last day of the Gulf war. Smell SH???

[Weirdad]

I have noticed. You are right. I think the Iraq is not as unnoticed as it might appear, however. Let Iraq be complacent...

SH next. Fewer mountains less snow.
