[Why are you brucecw coming out of the woodwork to defend the islamic "god" on this as well??? And that IS what you are doing.]

Why am I not surprised that you want to put these kinds of words into my mouth????? There is NOTHING in my post that could be taken that way - in fact just the opposite.

I have said before on this forum, and in fact what I posted implies, that I think it very likely that Islam is not merely an antichristian (small a) religion, but is in fact the religion of the Antichrist (big A). Is that not enough for you???

But I did not reach this conclusion because of any cheap linguistic trick about what word they use to mean "God" (after all, the root of the English word also was originally applied to various pagan gods)!

My grandfather the preacher used to complain about parishioners who thought that "if the King James Version was good enough for Paul and Silas, it's good enough for them." You're giving the impression of having a similar uneducated view of Christianity.

Al-Qaeda 'determined to attack'

From correspondents in New York August 09, 2004

US officials may issue new public safety alerts based on information from computer discs seized during the arrests of suspected al-Qaeda operatives in Britain last week, reports say.

US and British intelligence officials are analysing the content of more than 1000 discs, which "appear to contain evidence of previously unknown terrorist planning activities in the United States", according to the New York Times.

"As a result, Bush administration officials are preparing for the possibility of expanded public and private threat alerts," the daily said quoting an unnamed intelligence source.

In intelligence gleaned from arrests of al-Qaeda suspects in Pakistan, "we've seen that al-Qaeda appears determined to attack again in the near term", a government official told the newspaper.

The United States on August 1 heightened security around five key financial centres in Washington and the New York area, based on information found in a laptop seized during an arrest in Pakistan.

US homeland security chief Tom Ridge said in The Wall Street Journal Monday that 40 pages of computer files contained a "shocking" level of detail about the five buildings.

Meanwhile, there was new information about vehicles Al-Qaeda has considered using in terror attacks - tourist helicopters and limousines.

New York tourist helicopters are "an area of identified risk based on specific and credible intelligence" from Pakistan, a security official told The Times.
