Last week's federal raid of a Massachusetts software firm raises many questions about U.S. security - not least about our "allies" in Saudi Arabia. The firm, Ptech Inc., is said to have held millions of dollars in contracts with clients including the White House, the FBI, the U.S. Air Force, and the Internal Revenue Service. Yet investigators believe top investor Yasin al-Qadi was a major financial backer of al Qaeda.

I see that ol' Stevie Schwartz couldn't resist putting in his personal pro-Albanian and Bosnian biases in this piece. Shame, really, because it was somewhat interesting. By the way, didn't our troops in Afghanistan searching a terrorist-training camp find a letter from a Kosovo Albanian who said that he had experience fighting in the KLA against Serbia, and that he recommended "suicide attacks against parks like Disney"?

I don't recognize the Bosnia, Kosovo, or Albania I have been reading about in the news for the past three or four years. This must be some sort of fantasy-land in Jacob Kell's head.

No problema. I amke mistakes sometimes, too. Anyone with even half a brain knows that ol' Stevie Schwartz has a excessive pro-Albanian bias. IMHO< rather unhealthy. There was a EUropean businessman who siad about the growth of Radical Islamism in Kuwait, despite that we helped freee them from Iraqi oppression. "Eaten bread is soon forgotten". I wonder if Stevie has heard those words. Also, what's this about Kosovo ALbanians, such as the so-called KPC-saying that they would go over to the middle east in case of war with Iraq toi fight for us? I don't think they mean it, it's probably just another PR exercise. THey know they won't be sent to the Mid East.
