"I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat"
KHOBAR, Saudi Arabia - Tens of American, European and other hostages were released Sunday and a gunman believed to be the lead Islamic militant holding them was arrested, a Saudi security official said, adding that two other gunmen were "in the process of being arrested."
We are the "Stotters" who make ourselves aware of the enemy who wishes to do us harm
:-P
Aaaack, that's Swiss!
Avoid møøse...
Oh, am I incorrect in thinking this was an OBL communication? I had looked at Jill's site earlier, and had made the connection to OBL. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I don't want to unduly raise any alarms, as I know we have connected impending attacks to his communiques/tapes.
Well now. I certainly think "Bush and his lapdog Blair" might have something to say about that.
Did you all see this??

France tightens security net for D-Day events
From news reports AP, Reuters Wednesday, June 2, 2004
PARIS France on Tuesday bolstered a security plan to protect the 17 heads of state and government who will be attending ceremonies this weekend marking the 60th anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy that drove German forces from France in World War II.
.
The program, known as Vigipirate, was stepped up to red level, the second-highest alert, across the country, Interior Ministry officials said, triggering random searches at rail stations and strengthened patrols.
.
France has also resumed border controls, which is permitted under the Schengen agreement on free circulation of movement within the European Union when public order or national security require it, officials said.
.
A week ago the red level was introduced in the Lower Normandy area where the weekend's ceremonies will be attended by, among others, President Jacques Chirac, President George W. Bush, President Vladimir Putin of Russia and Chancellor Gerhard Schröder of Germany.

Al Qaeda targets US oil supplies
Analysts say the Saudi attack could be a new tactic aimed at slowing the US economy.
By Faiza Saleh Ambah | Correspondent of The Christian Science Monitor
JEDDAH, SAUDI ARABIA – In two deadly attacks here in the past month, analysts see Al Qaeda-linked groups adopting new tactics and targets - encouraging self-organizing cells to hit soft targets in an effort to drive away Western oil workers, damage the Saudi petroleum industry, and slow the US economy.
Despite the weekend attack in Saudi Arabia's oil-rich eastern province in which 22 people were killed, oil operations continued uninterrupted Monday amid heightened security.

That is too bizarre! By the way, my husband loves Velveeta cheese. Just wanted to let you know you have a fan :-)
Err....he means the CPA's oil...

Thanks Oorang, we're here. I have never misbehaved here and I'm not starting now. I think 'most' of us are in the same category.
We've worked darn hard to quit perhaps within weeks of the due date.
YEA!
THANKS TO JIM et al
AND PTL!
It looks like it's from him, as it's posted right under a photo of him. Starts out saying I'm not dead...
BUT, it has some other name at the end of it. Confusing, for sure.
Anyway, it sure talks about a tape coming from Osama right before we're knocked to gone and back, supposedly!
LOL! Thanks.
tired...goodnight all
so glad we're back

NEW YORK, June 01 (Online): A captured Al Qaeda leader wanted an American-born terror suspect to join a plot to blow up fuel stations outside Baltimore, a media report said quoting an FBI document.
According to Press Trust of India, an Al Qaeda leader Khalid Shaikh Mohammed wanted Adam Yahiye Gadahn, one of the seven terror suspects named by Attorney General John Ashcroft, to join a plot to cause unrest in the United States, 'Newsweek' magazine reported.
Khalid said Gadahn had a pregnant Muslim wife and was not eager to participate in "martyrdom" (suicide) operations, the report said quoting the May 2003 FBI document.
Gadahn, who had taken the name Abu Suhayb Al-Amriki, was last seen in Karachi in October 2002, the document quotes Khalid as saying.
Khalid was captured in Pakistan and taken into custody in March 2003.
During interrogation he said the tightened security after September 11, 2001 attacks had forced Al Qaeda to rethink its strategy for penetrating the United States.
The terror network needed operatives with US passports and had begun trying to recruit native-born Americans, looking for those living abroad who had converted to Islam or black Muslims inside the US, the report said.
According to Qari Saheb, a former driver for Taliban leader Mullah Omar, interviewed in January 2002 by Newsweek, Gadahn befriended John Walker Lindh, known as the "American Taliban" after his capture in the Afghan war.
Gadahn had offered to help Lindh find a Muslim wife-his own wife's sister. Lindh was interested, but told Gadahn that he would marry only when he returned from the front lines. He wound up in an American prison, PTI reports
