Threat Matrix: March 2007
Previous Thread ^

Posted on 03/01/2007 8:28:33 PM PST by nwctwx

:::FreeRepublic's Threat Matrix:::
Senior Taliban leader held in Pakistan
-Full Story-

Pakistani security forces have captured a high-ranking Taliban leader in the southwestern city of Quetta, a senior security official and Taliban sources said late Thursday

The capture of Mullah Obaidullah Akhund marked the first Pakistan arrest of a senior leader of the Islamist militia since it was driven from power in Afghanistan in 2001 when thousands of its fighters fled into Pakistan.

The security official and Taliban sources said Akhund, the third most senior member of the Taliban's 10-member leadership council, was arrested late on Monday, hours after a surprise visit to Pakistan by U.S. Vice-President Dick Cheney.

Very sad outcome for the little boy and his family.

When will authorities across America recognize that something more must be done to stop these crimes?

I agree with all you wrote, all4one.

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "In a newspaper article published Thursday, Kemo Muskic, a cousin of Sulejman Talovic, claims to have been shown a 12 gauge shotgun and a .38 calibre revolver in Talovic's basement. The article claims that six weeks before the killings, Talovic claimed to be a "hustler" for a local gang. The cousin claims to have expressed disbelief in Talovic's claim of gang affiliation. That's when the cousins claim Talovic offered "proof," taking the teens in the basement bedroom, opening a small closet. There, they claim to have been shown the guns and ammunition and even a bag of marijuana."

On February 11th, the night before the shooting spree at the popular downtown mall, Talovic announced something was going to happen.

"He's all like, 'yeah, you're gonna be mad at me, but you won't feel betrayed.' I asked him. 'What is it?' He says he couldn't tell me, and I was like, 'so why did you tell me?' And he goes, 'only because I love you.'" Talovic goes on according to Ibrahimovic, "I asked him. 'What does it involve?' He says 'it involves practically everything.""

"Klansman teaching History at Kent State"
By Mike S. Adams
Friday, March 16, 2007

COLUMN SNIPPET: "Kent State University now has another problem on its hands. A member of the Ku Klux Klan who just recently was found operating a hate website (www.KillTheNegroes.com) has now been identified as a history professor at Kent State. The site has been closed but the controversy still looms because of some comments the professor has posted on blogs under the name “Lover of Anglos” while using his Kent State email address.

Some examples of the vile postings follow:"

"hree tagging suspects held in $400,000 graffiti damage"
BY GIDEON RUBIN, Staff Writer
Article Last Updated: 03/15/2007 09:48:13 PM PDT

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "PALMDALE - Three tagging suspects were arrested in an early morning raid Thursday and a fourth was expected to surrender later in a six-week investigation of $400,000 in graffiti vandalism from the Antelope Valley to Ventura, authorities said.

Sheriff's deputies arrested Joseph Mendoza, 27; Carlos Chave, 26; and Joshua Calderon, 23, all of Palmdale, on suspicion of felony vandalism. Another suspect, whose name was not released, was contacted by phone and agreed to surrender, authorities said.

The four are suspected of causing at least $400,000 damage in the Antelope Valley, Santa Clarita, Los Angeles, Mojave and Ventura. Deputies said targets included the historic Freedom Train in Mojave, which served as a traveling museum in the U.S. Bicentennial in 1976."

ICE arrests former military officer sought for role in coup and assassination of Bangladesh's president three decades ago


LOS ANGELES - U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers yesterday arrested a former major in the Bangladeshi army who is wanted in his home country for his role in a 1975 military-backed coup that resulted in the assassination of Bangladesh's first president, Sheikh Mujib Rahman.

Members of ICE's fugitive operations teams took Mohiuddin A.K.M. Ahmed, 60, into custody yesterday morning at his residence in the 3900 block of Inglewood Boulevard in Los Angeles. In 1998, the Bangladesh High Court convicted Ahmed in absentia for his role in the coup and assassination and sentenced him to death.

President Mujib was slain August 15, 1975, along with his wife and several family members. The coup also resulted in the death of a number of the president's trusted aides.

Ahmed, who first entered the United States in 1996 on a visitor's visa, had appealed a deportation order handed down by an immigration judge in 2002. Late last month, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco denied Ahmed's petition to review the case, allowing the earlier removal order to stand.

For two decades following Mujib's assassination, Ahmed represented the Bangladeshi government in a variety of foreign diplomatic posts. In July of 1996, the same month he arrived in the United States, Ahmed was ordered to return to Bangladesh to face criminal charges for his role in the plot. Upon arriving in the United States, Ahmed applied for permission to remain in the country permanently. The Ninth Circuit Court's action last month denied Ahmed's legal appeal.

"Khalid Sheikh Mohammed: I killed Daniel Pearl"


SNIPPET: "9/11 mastermind admits killing reporter," by Katherine Shrader for Associated Press:

WASHINGTON - Suspected 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed confessed to the beheading of American journalist Daniel Pearl and a central role in 30 other attacks and plots in the U.S. and worldwide that killed thousands of victims, said a revised transcript released Thursday by the U.S. military.

"I decapitated with my blessed right hand the head of the American Jew, Daniel Pearl, in the city of Karachi, Pakistan," Mohammed is quoted as saying in a transcript of a military hearing at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, released by the Pentagon.

"For those who would like to confirm, there are pictures of me on the Internet holding his head," he added.""

One year ago today, Daniel Pearl was kidnapped in Pakistan. A month later, his captors videotaped him as he was made to "confess" to being a Jew, and then had his throat slit.

"No matter what country one lives in today; homeschool and/or a good private school is the only way to educate your children these days."

Big agreement from me...and yet I have those acquaintences who just cannot admit to themselves the total failure of the public school system in this country. Mainly based on the liberal kooks and their PC policies. They are more worried about not offending that one transgender purple haired student, than the tousands who cannot read or write. And I know that there are still a few public school systems that are doing a good job...but they are 1 in 1,000, by today's standards.

And I have even been told that I am keeping my boys in a bubble..outside the real world for sending them to private school. I am saddened for those who would like to send their children, but cannot afford to do so. There are also those who claim they cannot afford it, but have two 5+ years of car payments....it is not that difficult to buy an older used car and free up their money to make sure their children get a great education.

"Imams' suit risks 'chill' on security"
By Audrey Hudson
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
March 16, 2007

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Six imams who are suing an airline and an airport for removing them from a flight also have aimed the lawsuit at passengers who the imams believe reported some of their activities.

The suit filed this week in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis names as defendants "John Does" who "contacted US Airways to report the alleged suspicious behavior" of the imams before the Nov. 20 flight -- an inclusion some lawyers, who are not connected to the litigation, say will have a "chilling effect" on airline security."

"Security tight in China riot town"


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Security is tight in a town in central China following riots that involved as many as 20,000 people.

A BBC correspondent in the town, in Hunan province, has seen riot police and soldiers protecting government buildings and patrolling the streets.

He says it appears the protests began after a local firm took over the town's bus routes and doubled the fares.

Vehicles were burned and several people were injured in clashes with police as the protests climaxed on Monday.

Reports said one person had been killed, although this was denied on Wednesday by the official Xinhua news agency, which played down the incident.

Growing unrest

The BBC's James Reynolds says calm has been restored to Zhushan town, near the city of Yongzhou, and the presence of the security forces is clearly felt.

But, he says, the protesters believe they have won because the bus company has since brought its prices back down."
