February 24, 2004 -- WASHINGTON - The Pentagon has dispatched the elite commando force that hunted down Saddam Hussein to Afghanistan for a new operation aimed at getting Osama bin Laden, officials said yesterday. Military sources confirmed that members of the shadowy Task Force 121, the unit that conducted the high-tech search for Saddam and his henchmen, have recently begun operating in the remote mountainous region along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border where bin Laden and key al Qaeda and Taliban fugitives are believed to be hiding. The Task Force is made up of highly trained Delta and SEAL commandos, as well as CIA paramilitary operators. It operates outside normal military channels.

My way would be a more effective deterrent! LOL

No! Thanks for the laugh! I did registered the screen name here at FR (to keep the real Daleel from registering here) several months ago and there were some suspicious comments sent my way when I admitted to it.

Looks like the account has been suspended...

If I were Daleel, I could think of no way to disprove it anyway... No... Wait... I can spell... ;)

That card is great. And now, as to that grain of salt you mentioned…

"...if the TV folks delivered real news instead of pap, we wouldn't be surfing all these places."

And we wouldn't be putting our fingers up to see which direction the wind is blowing all the time either;)

We just recognize the media's snow job for what it is. Most folks are either too obtuse, too vegged out on the couch or too busy to connect the dots.

Package Prompts Closure of Georgia Capitol

ATLANTA — About 1,400 people were evacuated Thursday from the Georgia Capitol and five other state buildings after a worker handling a package reportedly developed a rash, officials said.

The Department of Transportation (search) employee and 12 others who had been near the unopened package were taken to a hospital's decontamination unit. All were being released Thursday, a hospital spokeswoman said.

A police bomb squad robot and a hazardous materials team sent into the department's mail room found no indication the package was dangerous. Firefighters took it away in a black garbage bag and the evacuation order was lifted.

Tests on the package probably will be completed Friday, said Capt. Bill May, spokesman for the Atlanta Fire Department (search).

The employee who handled the package was the only one showing any physical symptoms.

"We just know she was handling it and got a rash after she handled the package," May said.

Authorities first evacuated the transportation building, then ordered people out of the Capitol, the legislative office building, the judicial building, the Agriculture Department and the Georgia Building Authority (search).

Most of the buildings were evacuated about 5 p.m., by which time most employees had gone home for the day, said Capt. Al Wilson of the Georgia State Patrol.

We hear His voice by reading His Word as well and learn to recognize it. You have made my statement much more specific than it was intended. And I already criticized reading Nostradamus...why are you doing it again?

Boise businesses evacuated due to bomb scare

06:54 PM MST on Thursday, March 11, 2004

BOISE – Boise Police have evacuated two businesses and three homes Thursday morning in the 1500 block of Vista Avenue and blocked traffic between Overland and Kootenai roads because of a bomb scare in the area.

Boise Police spokeswoman Lynn Hightower said the move was taken as a precaution after a suspicious device was discovered by a passerby between the Maytag Laundromat and the Wells Fargo Bank near the intersection of Overland Road and Vista Avenue.

Police evacuated all people working and living within a 300 foot radius of the device.

Hightower said there were no threats to any persons or businesses in the area, and they may never know for sure if the device contains explosives. The bomb squad was called in to detonate the device, which was done without incident.

Cache of Explosives Found in Ogden (for sale)

[GirlShortstop]

Because of what islam really teaches not what we are told in the press it teaches. It is an intresting study, very eye opening.

I have read a number of books about Islam, and I completely agree with you about "very eye opening".  The ugliness of what's untold and hidden from public consumption in the media became somewhat wearisome.   I had to stop reading the books, and turn to The Good Book for a spiritual refill.  I think it's not unlike the feeling of needing a shower after visiting DU, ya know?  :-)

String of mailbox bombings in Palm Springs


Today at five, we told you about a string of mailbox bombings in south Palm Springs. But neighbors say they're not laughing at these pranks. These crude plastic bombs can be really dangerous.

It's happened four times in the last month, all in this same neighborhood in the southern end of Palm Springs. Mailbox bombs going off right outside people's front doors. No one's been hurt, but residents are fed up.(snipped)

Sometimes I feel that my FReepers are my only friends. My family and friends keep rolling their eyeballs at me everytime I mention these threats. I wonder if they are really aware and awake to what is happening in this world. They seem to think that I am the "goofball" and over reacting to this stuff. Therefore, I am quietly preparing and readying my home for whatever may come. So, I sit a silent vigil...but, a ready one.

[Mrs. Xtrmst]

Good catch. I think the Muslim word for clean food is "halal" or something like it.

[judicial meanz]

I had to stop reading the books, and turn to The Good Book for a spiritual refill. I think it's not unlike the feeling of needing a shower after visiting DU, ya know?

I am so glad it isnt just me that feels that way. I can't stand Islamic legalistic psychobabble discourse and readings, especially when they are used to justify murder, mayhem, and terrorism. It has a very evil tone to it, and it permeates.

At least 14 dolphins found dead in Panhandle bay


The Associated Press
3/11/2004, 7:31 p.m. CT


CAPE SAN BLAS, Fla. (AP) -- At least 14 bottlenose dolphin were found dead Wednesday and Thursday in and along the shore of St. Josephs Bay in the Florida Panhandle, said state and federal officials who were unsure of the cause.

Post-mortems will be conducted in an effort to learn why the marine mammals died, said Thomas Pitchford, a biologist at the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's Marine Mammal Pathology Laboratory in St. Petersburg.

One carcass was found Wednesday and the others Thursday, all at St. Joseph Peninsula State Park on Cape San Blas about 80 miles southwest of Tallahassee.

"This is not a species that typically strands," Pitchford said. He said all were dead when found.

Several dead fish also were found in the bay, which might indicate a toxin such as red tide might be to blame, he said.

Blair Mase, Southeast stranding coordinator for the National Marine Fisheries Service in Miami, agreed, but she said nothing has been ruled out.

Some of the carcasses were found floating while others were beached, Mase said. The Conservation Commission was using an aircraft to determine whether other dead animals were in the bay.

Farrakhan to European, US govts: Give Blacks justice or face God’s full judgment [Hamitic Curse]

CHICAGO (FinalCall.com) - "Allah-u-Akbar! Allah-u-Akbar!" (God is Great! God is Great!) chanted thousands of Muslims here and in more than 110 other satellite venues Feb. 29 in this country, the Caribbean, Central and South America, the United Kingdom, France, North and West Africa, South Africa and the Middle East, the instant the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan appeared on the screen to deliver his Saviours’ Day 2004 address: "Reparations: What Does America and Europe Owe? What Does Allah (God) Promise?"

[rickylc]

Is this at all close to where the dead diver was found?

[Letitring]

Uh-oh. Hello my Friend. I hate to hear you say that. I am running to catch up. Took time out due to a missing person case in my State. Reading as fast as possible.

Please stay safe.

I'm at a University in NW Ohio, and everyone thinks I'm crazy.

I use to fit in, but things started changing on 9/11.

Though what finally turned the card for me was the war in Iraq. Watching the nightly news be so incredibly biased compared to what I read on the internet just ticked me off. It opened my eyes and now there's no goin' back.
