BACKGROUNDER: Compiled by Bill Gertz Intelligence points to early November attack by Al Qaida U.S. intelligence officials said Al Qaida terrorists might be planning a major attack in early November. Preparations for the attack were said to have been completed by the end of October. But the attack was put off until early November, the sources said. A key indicator was the recent taped message from Osama bin Laden, which U.S. officials said is often a prelude to Al Qaida attacks. A statement published last week in the London Arabic newspaper, Al Majallah, bolstered intelligence of the impending attack. The...

Jerusalem Post ^ | 11-2-03
Both the European Union and the Vatican have used this period to call on Muslims, Jews, and Christians to heal their ruptures. From Granada, Spain, and Aubervilliers, France, to Cairo and Jakarta, more than a billion Muslims are this month marking the "handing down" of the Koran. Through daytime fasting, Ramadan is a time to subjugate the body to the spirit. Both the European Union and the Vatican have used this period to call on Muslims, Jews, and Christians to heal their ruptures. That's good advice – assuming the source of the trouble is correctly identified. The Western tendency is...

PARIS (AFP) - The Moon will turn a shade of red this Saturday when it will be fully eclipsed by the Earth, whose shadow will blot out all but a tiny fraction of solar light, astronomers said. Total lunar eclipses occur when the Sun, the Earth and the Moon are all in alignment and the Moon travels into the broad cone of shadow cast by the Earth. The Moon does not become invisible, though, because there is still residual sunlight that is deflected towards it by the Earth's atmosphere, most of which is light in the red part of the...

Saudi police say they have arrested six Muslim militants after Monday's raids on suspected terror cells in Mecca.

Asked if he thought the suspects were members of the al-Qaida network, the prince said all eight, including the two who were killed in Monday's raids, were "without any doubt" from the same organization. Speaking to the...

Shortly after the terrorist attacks of September 11th, a few of us Freepers became aware that Ramadan 2003 had special prophetic significance to certain Islamic sects. They are awaiting a spiritual avatar known as the Twelfth Mahdi, who will lead Muslims to great victories in war over the infidels. It's believed that this Mahdi will appear during a Ramadan with both a Solar and a Lunar Eclipse. This double Ramadan eclipse will occur this year, for the first time since 1786, and won't occur again until 2155. For those Muslims who place any credence in this prophecy, this year's Ramadan...

Ablaj, who regularly communicates with the London-based weekly via e-mail, did not specify if the threatened strike will be carried out in the United States or against American interests abroad. "Muslims have the right to draw...
