Pakistan needs to do more to crack down on terrorism along the Pakistani-Afghan border, a spokesman for Afghan President Hamid Karzai said Tuesday. Rahim Karimi said in the news conference that Afghanistan need greater "cooperation" from both its eastern neighbor and the international community in its battle against Islamic militants. Coalition and Afghan forces have in recent days been fighting fierce battles against Taliban fighters near the Afghan-Pakistan border. |

Here's another one - that we know about. Notice the plural, "Iranians."
Man admits he tried to smuggle Iranian national across border
A Mesa man has admitted in federal court that he tried to smuggle an illegal immigrant from Iran across the U.S.-Mexico border.
FBI agents arrested Zeayadali Malhamdary and raided his tailor shop May 26 after an undercover investigation found he tried to obtain Mexican visas for Iranians so they could fly into Mexico and then cross the border.

Student Faces Criminal Charges For Teacher Jokes
POSTED: 10:59 am EDT May 16, 2006
UPDATED: 11:37 am EDT May 16, 2006
HENRY COUNTY, Ga. -- A Henry County high school student is facing criminal charges after posting comments about his teacher on the Web site, MySpace.com, reported WSB-TV in Atlanta.
The teacher has filed defamation of character charges against the student, Alex Davis, 15.
Eagle’s Landing High School science teacher Robert Muzzillo pursued the charges against Davis after noticing a profile with his name attached on MySpace.com.
The profile talked about Muzzillo liking Michael Jackson and having a "gay old time," like the Fred Flintstone song.
Davis said he only wrote that Muzzillo lost an eye wrestling with alligators and midgets. The teen said it was just a prank and meant as a joke.
When the school found out that Davis was involved, he received three days in-school suspension. Then he learned the teacher had filed charges against him.
"I have finals coming up and I have to study and instead I have to go to court," Davis said.
Davis' father said the charges are a waste of the court's time.
"This has all gotten kinda bizarre," Andy Davis said.
The Davis' have hired attorney Lee Sexton to handle the case.
"It's just silly stuff about a teacher they were just joking about. It's gotten way out of hand," Sexton said.
Davis said he apologized and said he was only having fun and never threatened anyone.
"You can say whatever you want but it can get you in trouble," he said.
Davis is scheduled to head to court next Tuesday. His attorney said the criminal defamation of character charge is unconstitutional.

It's okay to call Jews "apes and pigs" in Sweden Snip: A mosque in Stockholm was recently under investigation after cassette tapes were sold in its bookshop containing anti-Semitic lectures that were “strongly degrading to Jews,” according to Chancellor of Justice L. Goran Lambertz. He mentioned that the speaker called for a Jihad to kill Jews by suicide bombers and that the lecturer refers to Jews as “brothers of apes and pigs.” He eventually dropped the investigation because this hate speech against Jews could be considered to originate from the Middle East conflict. Therefore, it is acceptable to call for the massacre of Jews as long as the Palestinian conflict is mentioned.
Further surrendering to Islamic wishes, Sweden cancelled its participation in international air force exercises to take place in Italy this month to protest the involvement of the Israeli Air Force in the drills. This announcement arrived just one day after Holocaust Remembrance Day.

Watched most of the vid, nic... that is unconscionable. The border should have been slammed shut on 9/12/01.
Well.... before, actually... but you get what I mean. Fits in with Michelle Malkin's Hot Topic yesterday.
