Chechen jihad leader Shamil Basayev claims Nalchik attack
Jihad leader Shamil Basayev, who has made it clear that he is fighting for his "Faith," has announced that 217 warriors of jihad are responsible for the assault in Nalchik last Thursday: "Shamil Basayev: 'Nalchik attacked by 217 Mujahideen,'" from the jihadist Kavkaz Center site, with thanks to Zalbion:
Bismillahi-Rahmani-Rahim! (In the name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful!)
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, Who made us Muslims and blessed us with Jihad on His Straight Path!
Peace and blessings to Prophet Mohammed (Peace Be Upon Him), His Family, his disciples and all of those who follow him till the Judgement Day!
And then:
Almighty Allah (SWT) in the Holy Koran says: "Among the Believers are men who have been true to their covenant with Allah: of them some have died, and some (still) wait: but they have never changed (their determination) in the least." (The Allies, 23)
Alhamdulillah (Praise to God), by the mercy of Allah, Mujahideen of Kabardino-Balkarian sector of the Caucasian Front have carried out large-scale assault operation against the Russian invaders and their henchmen in the city of Nalchik on 13 October, 2005.
217 Mujahideen participated in the assault operation, who at 9:14 a.m. simultaneously stormed 15 military objects of all power structures of KB in territory of city...
During the assault operation more 300 (about 140 killed and more than 160 wounded) kafirs [unbelievers] and minafiqs [hypocrites] were eliminated and wounded, mainly newly arrived Special Forces members. Three halicopters and a few units of military hardware were destroyed, war booty captured.
Exactly after 2 hours at 11:15 a.m. the main units of Mujahideen left the city.
Our casulties 41 Shaheeds [marytrs], insha Allah [Allah willing].
He concludes these holy musings with "Victory or Paradise!"

SNIP:Only the U.S. and New Zealand allow advertising of drugs directed at patients. U.S. pharmaceutical companies spent $2.5 billion US in advertising prescription drug products to the public in 2000, says Mintzes. Although this amount is less than 20 per cent of the total advertising budget, it is the fastest-growing budget item, she adds. Retail drug sales in 2000 totalled $145 billion US.
Islamic Thrust for Global Supremacy - Just Say No!
Why then, do we not see stories as such on CNN, ABC, CBS, Nightline, Good Morning America, and the rest? Is it due to lawsuits from people like CAIR who seemingly sue at the drop of a hat? Or is it due to people not wanting to disturb potentially a billion angry Mohammedans who have no problem with wholesale slaughter of anyone outside their religion?
Shell will make billions-dollar investment in Iran's oil industry

US prepares plan to ration flu drug
Health and Human Services Secretary Michael Leavitt told NPR that the Bush administration is working on a plan to ration Tamiflu, a scarce drug that's currently the only medical weapon against a pandemic flu virus. If a global outbreak occurred anytime soon, the nation's limited supplies of the drug would go first to medical personnel, said Leavitt.
Health minister says Canada prepared for bird flu
Canada has stockpiled enough vaccine to contain an outbreak if the deadly bird flu becomes transmittable from human to human, Health Minister Ujjal Dosanjh said.
Social cleansing of gang members in Guatamala?
...groups of unidentified gunmen arriving in poor neighborhoods and pulling gang members or suspected criminals out of their homes or off the street. Some were never seen again, while the bodies of others turned up wrapped in blankets or sheets of plastic. Most victims have been criminals or members of gangs whose ranks have swollen as the United States increasingly deports Central American immigrants suspected of gang activity.
Old article re biological weapons
A series of field tests took place under the auspices of the Biological Laboratories from 1943 to the mid-1960s:
In one such test, travelers at Washington National Airport were subjected to a harmless bacterium. Traps were placed throughout the facility to capture the bacterium as it flowed in the air. Laboratory personnel, dressed as travelers carrying brief cases, walked the corridors and without detection sprayed the bacterium into the atmosphere.
In the New York Subway, a light bulb filled with the same harmless bacterium was dropped on the tracks. The organism spread throughout the system within 20 minutes. Traps and monitoring devices showed the amount of organismif it were one of the predictable, dangerous organisms, could have killed thousands of persons. No one was injured or became ill as a result of the test.
In San Francisco, a U.S. Navy ship, equipped with spray devices operated by Fort Detrick personnel, sprayed serratia marcescens, a non-pathogenic microorganism that is easily detected, while the ship plied the San Francisco Bay. It spread more than 30 miles to monitoring stations.
A jet aircraft equipped with spray devices, flew a course near Victoria, Texas, and the harmless particles were monitored in the Florida Keys.
Are you sure about that?
There are more than 1,000 chemicals in a cup of coffee. Of these, only 26 have been tested, and half caused cancer in rats.
No matter when that was printed it scares the heck out of me!!
I somehow doubt Canada's claims to have enough vaccine stockpiled for everyone. BTW, there is no vaccine for bird flu and they have already found a resistant strain to Tamiflu. I wonder if Dr's would prescribe Tamiflu to someone who just wanted to have it on hand?

Iraq Al-Qaeda shows execution despite 'Zawahiri
letter'
AFP ^ | October 17 2005
Posted on 10/17/2005 2:24:08 PM PDT by jmc1969
DUBAI (AFP) - Al-Qaeda in Iraq released a video purporting to show
the execution of an Iraqi who worked for US forces, days after
Washington said the group had been told such killings cost the
movement support.
The video was released by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's group after US
authorities said they had seized a letter from Al-Qaeda's overall
number two, Ayman al-Zawahiri, telling him his campaign of
executions and attacks on Muslims was damaging popular, mainly
Sunni Arab, support for the insurgency.
The undated film, whose authenticity could not be verified, was titled
"Application of Divine Judgement on a Contractor Working for the
Crusaders," in reference to US-led forces in Iraq.

(Bubonic) Plague found in prairie dog colonies near C-470 in Jeffco (Colorado)
Denver Post ^
Posted on 10/17/2005 2:30:16 PM PDT by nickcarraway
Jefferson County health officials have confirmed an outbreak of bubonic plague among prairie dog colonies at C-470 and West Quincy Avenue in the Green Mountain area.
There were no reports of human cases in the area, but precautions were advised.
Pet owners also were advised to avoid contact with any species of wild rodents, especially those appearing sick or dead.
The best way to prevent plague is to control the presence of rodents and fleas in and around the home, health officials said.
Dogs and cats should be confined so they cannot prey on infected rodents.
If precautions are taken, the probability of contracting plague is extremely low, health officials said. Jefferson County Environmental Health officials will continue to monitor the situation.
For further information, contact the department at 303-271-5755 or visit www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvbid/plague/info.htm.
Thanks, Mama. I've given up ice cream, bread except on occasion, refined sugar, and sodas...but I'm still clinging to my coffee. (sigh) And unfortunately, I really enjoy my coffee. You've given me 1,000 reasons to reconsider. Isn't decaf supposed to have even more chemicals?
I know just what you mean (and this is our own government): witness:
Cities were unwittingly used as laboratories to test aerosolization and dispersal methods; Aspergillus fumigatus, B. subtilis var. globigii, and Serratia marcescens were used as simulants and released during experiments in New York City, San Francisco, and other sites. Concerns regarding potential public health hazards of simulant studies were raised after an outbreak of nosocomial S. marcescens (formerly Chromobacterium prodigiosum) urinary tract infections at Stanford University Hospital between September 1950 and February 1951, following covert experiments using S. marcescens as a simulant in San Francisco.
I don't know about that, but reading "factoids" cures me from both doing and digesting, depending on the item factoided: (laughing, but not really sure I should be).

Pakistan: mullah blocks feeding of earthquake
survivors' during Ramadan
BBC ^ | 10/17/05 | OB Jones
Posted on 10/17/2005 1:35:04 PM PDT by voletti
Feeding 1,200 people with no kitchen requires a bit of preparation.
You need to light fires, boil rice and cook meat. It takes several hours.
You have to get going in advance.
But one of the local mullahs did not see it that way and he paid
Mohammed Mustafa a visit.
"What are you doing?" he shouted. "Don't you know it's Ramadan
now? This is just not permitted.
"You can't cook food during the day. It's against Islam. Stop or I'll
burn this place down - your tents, your pots, everything."

I was researching petri dish air sampling today to test my father's home. I had to read the article twice about the testing in the 1950's with balloons filled with S. marcescens released over San Francisco that caused the urinary tract infections and pneumonia. Outrageous!
time for another prairie dog shooting tournament.
Time to review these movies:

Sure is. On one hand we had Kruschev gloating "they would bury us," instructions to hide under our school desks if the big one happened (complete with short movie clip), and on the other hand some Americans became human guinea pigs. The main link was "unavailable," but the cache brought it up.
In an embarrassing security breach, an Arabic interpreter who handled classified material while working for the last two years with U.S. military units in Iraq has been arrested after FBI agents discovered that he had so completely fabricated his identity and background that they are still unsure of his true name and have formally charged him as "FNU LNU" (first name unknown, last name unknown).

Thanks for the links and the ping! I appreciate it. I'll keep posting those school threat articles when I get ones with merit. (o:
