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.

Rumsfeld is too scary and threatens your freedoms?
He is the Patton of our era, doing the unpolite things that have to be done so you have the luxury of feeling that way. The first called upon in time of danger yet first shunned in time of peace. Our society has always been fickle toward warriors. God knows our veterans are ripped off every time it's politically expedient. Perhaps cryogenics will progress to the point where we can suspend these people with "Thaw freak only in case of emergency" labels on their cases.

Good point. I always thought "Legion" was the name of a particular demon. Let me see...

Mark 5, verse 9
9: And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

Whatever...The guy creeps me out and thats the way it is. He may do a good job fighting terror, and that is because of his personality to go get em. And that is fine. I give him credit there. But if he had the power then we would have patriot act #10. No thanks. Close the borders.

Was thinking about Eisenhower, how he made sure the WWII vets got secondary education and housing and how the entire country bounded ahead of the rest of the world because of it. Amazing achievement for a man trained for war.

Ah, yes, I remember that too. "My name is Legion". That always sent a chill through me.

No, not one demon named "Legion". Many many of them, all devils.

You're right. I went back and re-read the story. Jesus casts out the demons from a poor person who is possessed. He sent the demons into a herd of swine, that then drown themselves in the ocean. That story creeps me out too. Especially the quote, "My name is Legion, for we are many."

Internet Haganah get more crap than about any other website because they dare to take on the Jihadis. They need all of the help they can get! Let's hope Yahoo gets on top of this one quickly.

Man With Uranium Caught at Ukraine Border
yahoo ^ | 2/24/04

Posted on 02/24/2004 1:33:49 PM CST by knak

KIEV, Ukraine - Ukrainian border guards stopped a man trying to take nearly a pound of uranium into Hungary on Tuesday, an official said.

Border guards arrested the driver of a passenger van at the Tisa checkpoint after finding a container containing the potential nuclear bomb fuel, said border guards' spokesman Yevheniy Bargman.

It was unclear whether the uranium was in natural ore form or had been enriched for potential use in reactors or weapons.
