New message to Bin Laden announced
"A banner has been posted on a number of Arabic language jihadist websites announcing the release "soon" of a message to Osama Bin Laden.
As we mentioned earlier, the banner is not the typical banner As Sahab puts out. It is a completely different design from those we've seen recently from As Sahab announcing new tapes.
Careful translation indicates that this message is from Abu Musab Abdel Waddoud of the Salafist Group for Fighing and Preaching in Algeria, to Bin Laden."

Police hunting for stolen well-service truck
TEXAS
Parker County sheriff's deputies want the public's help in locating a high-dollar well-service truck that was reported stolen Wednesday from a drilling site in the 4100 block of Farm Road 51, north of Weatherford.
``The truck is unique and, due to the special equipment on-board, is valued at approximately $325,000,'' according to a news release from the sheriff's department.
The 1988 International truck, white with green trim, has two water tanks on the bed, two on-board motors mounted behind the cab and a cement hopper on the back. Its Texas license plate number is 34P677. snip)

Potentially explosive materials found in Gibson County
TENNESSEE
Bradford, TN- There is calm in the small town of Bradford after what could've been a dangerous situation. Just after 9:00 a.m. homeowners on old Highway 45 South were forced to evacuate. An employee at a storage facility found quite the surprise in a briefcase tucked away in one of the sheds. "All of the materials to make bombs was there," Store Owner Eric Goble says.
The F-B-I and A-T-F spent more than 6 hours on the scene where they found detonators, substances to make bombs, some of them already mixed and ready to set off, Internet instructions on how to make explosives, along with city and county maps, highlighting homes and churches in the immediate area.

Kissinger warns of war between civilizations
Snip: Former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger warned that Europe and the United States must unite to head off a "war of civilizations" arising from a nuclear-armed Middle East.
Dubai's ruler accused of slavery
Snippets: The action claims Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, his brother Hamdam and 500 others are responsible for abducting and trafficking the children.
Once in Dubai, it is claimed that the children - some of them as young as two - were kept in poor conditions, starved (so as to keep their weight down), abused and forced to take part in a dangerous sport.
The case was filed in Miami where Sheikh Mohammed and his brother, Sheikh Hamdam bin Rashid al-Maktoum, have property.
Just watched "United 93" tonight. Recommend it highly. If ever there were a compelling reason for our government to drop it's PC behavior reasoning and institute profiling, this should have done it. Screening articles instead of passengers just doesn't cut it and failure to profile leaves the airlines and passengers as vulnerable today as they were on 9/11 IMHO.
THANKS A BUNCH Velveeta.
Updates appreciated.

. . . According to KSM, Bin Ladin had been urging him to advance the date of the attacks. In 2000, for instance, KSM remembers Bin Ladin pushing him to launch the attacks amid the controversy after then-Israeli opposition party leader Ariel Sharon's visit to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. KSM claims Bin Ladin told him it would be enough for the hijackers simply to down planes rather than crash them into specific targets. KSM says he resisted the pressure.177
KSM claims to have faced similar pressure twice more in 2001. According to him, Bin Ladin wanted the operation carried out on May 12, 2001, seven months to the day after the Cole bombing. KSM adds that the 9/11 attacks had originally been envisioned for May 2001.
The second time he was urged to launch the attacks early was in June or July 2001, supposedly after Bin Ladin learned from the media that Sharon would be visiting the White House.
(http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/06/20010626-12.html)
On both occasions KSM resisted, asserting that the hijacking teams were not ready. Bin Ladin pressed particularly strongly for the latter date in two letters stressing the need to attack early.The second letter reportedly was delivered by Bin Ladin's son-in-law, Aws al Madani.178

Israeli troops, Palestinians clash after Sharon visits Jerusalem sacred site
September 28, 2000
Web posted at: 9:28 a.m. EDT (1328 GMT)
(snip)
JERUSALEM (CNN) -- A visit by Likud Party leader Ariel Sharon to the site known as the Temple Mount by Jews sparked a clash on Thursday between stone-throwing Palestinians and Israeli troops, who fired tear gas and rubber bullets into the crowd. Other clashes erupted in the West Bank town of Ramallah. More than 30 people, most Israeli soldiers, were hurt in the Jerusalem clashes, which began after Sharon left what Jews call the Temple Mount and Muslims call al-Haram as-Sharif, the Noble Sanctuary.
Sharon, leader of the hard-line opposition party Likud, said he had gone to the site with a message of peace. "I believe that we can live together with the Palestinians," Sharon said. "I came here to the holiest place of the Jewish people in order to see what happens here and really to have the feeling of how we need to move forward. There was no provocation here." . . .

Firefight In The West Bank (snip)
RAMALLAH, West Bank: In the most violent uprising since the Intifada ended in 1993, Palestinian police and Israeli soldiers engaged in gun battles Wednesday as riots raged in Jerusalem and the West Bank. At least four Palestinians, including two policemen, were killed and more than 240 were injured, including 30 who were hit by Israeli gunfire.
The outbreaks were set off by Israel's completion of an archaeological tunnel Tuesday along the Temple Mount, a site sacred to both Muslims and Jews. . .
