I wonder if this guy's information led to the recent arrest of the cells in Paris and London, the latter the ricin producing cell.

The Paris cell produced some liquid that the reports did not identify. One of the reports said the liquid could be used to make an explosive, but maybe that wasn't right. I don't think ricin is used for explosives.

No, I don't think so, either. It's a very powerful poison, not very useful for chemical warfare, but ideal for terrorism and assassination.

It appears this portion of Secretary of State Powell's speech to the UN yesterday has had a significant impact for possibly unintended reasons. The Al Qaeda assassination cell which murdered an American AID diplomat in Jordan operated from Iraq with the assistance of Iraqi intelligence. Powell put on significant evidence of this.

Many, many people are concluding this assassination was an act of war by Iraq against America, proof that Saddam has not been deterred from attacking the United States, and adequate proof of the connection between Al Qaeda and Iraq.

Powell did his job.

Better ricin than explosives. Sometimes the tried & true is more effective.

The New York Times say the deputy revealed that Zarqawi was operating a cell out of Iraq, that he had been given medical assistance there

I wonder if anyone's Bin gettin' plastic surgery in Iraq.
