RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — Saudi security forces and police
surrounded a house in the capital Wednesday, but withdrew from the area hours later, witnesses said. It was unclear whether anyone was detained.
Security officials would not comment on the operation, which blocked off the entire district of Al-Badeaa, in southwestern Riyadh, for at least three hours while security forces closed in on one house.
This is a totaly new concept...10 horns ring a bell.
Give the European Union members three seats - they can argue among themselves which countries will get the seats. Dump Canada, add China, India, Brazil and South Africa. With the United States, Japan and Russia, that makes 10.

NYC SUSPECT LINKED TO PAKISTANI TERRORISTS IN LONDON PUB PLOT
By Tom Hays
The Associated Press
6/16/04 8:23 PM
NEW YORK (AP) -- A Queens man has been jailed secretly since April on suspicions he joined a Pakistani terrorism cell in a plot against targets in London, officials said Wednesday.
The suspect, Mohammed Junaid Babar, was detained by the Joint Terrorism Task Force on April 10 as a material witness, according to two law enforcement officials. Babar has been in custody since then at the Metropolitan Detention Center in lower Manhattan.
One of the officials, who both spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity, alleged Babar aided a plot to "blow up pubs, restaurants and train stations" in London.
The plot was foiled in late March, when British authorities arrested eight suspects and seized 1,000 pounds of ammonium nitrate fertilizer -- which can be used to make explosives -- from a storage locker near central London.
Babar, 29, a U.S. citizen of Pakistani descent, has not been publicly charged. Megan Gaffney, a spokeswoman for the U.S. attorney's office in Manhattan, declined to comment.
U.S. authorities said Babar, who grew up in Queens, was put on a terror watch list after they learned he made inflammatory remarks to a Canadian news reporter in Pakistan after the Sept. 11 attacks.
The suspect said that despite the fact his mother had escaped from the ninth floor of one of the World Trade Center's towers, his loyalty was "to the Muslims, not the Americans." He also announced his intention to fight with the Taliban against U.S. forces in Afghanistan.
"I'm willing to kill Americans," he said in the televised interview, adding that he had no plans to return to New York.
It was unclear whether Babar went to Afghanistan. But on April 6, he returned to New York, where a team of police investigators and FBI agents put him under surveillance, the officials said.
Babar was arrested four days later while en route to a school for taxi drivers in Long Island City.
The arrest was first reported by ABC News. Its report said the suspect was cooperating with investigators and has warned of more terrorist attacks in the United States.
FBI spokesman James Margolin and police Commissioner Raymond Kelly declined to comment.

Last week, didn't Loftus say that an arrest in NYC would be going down soon?
Isn't that something, JP? The line about smuggling illegals over by way of Mexico is no surprise to us here, but it floored me just the same. More confirmation.
I wonder who else is in custody here in the U.S. that we will not know about for another 2 months or so...
Well let me welcome you home:)
Very interesting, freeperfromnj. I remember the Paki dude's inflammatory comments that the article quotes. I am glad he is in jail now. I wonder why he saw the need to go to taxi driver school and how would that help him in bombing London?!
The taxi driver school is an excusable meeting place. Members of a group can meet without suspicion if they have a common meeting place.
Yes, he called it!!!
I have to listen tonight.
COULD CERTAINLY BE!!!
Wheee. aaaaargh
CHEERS!
But the Paki was detained in early April. Maybe Loftus is in on another, more recent arrest.
I don't think so.
Uhhhhh, which incident are we referring to!!!
LOL.
Oops - Good point. Maybe the Paki gave them more info on the rest of the cell.
