"U.S. wants new hearing on 'millennium bomber' sentence"
By CURT WOODWARD
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "SEATTLE -- Federal prosecutors want another chance to seek a stiffer prison term for a man convicted of plotting to bomb Los Angeles International Airport at the turn of the millennium.
In a Friday filing, interim U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Sullivan of Seattle asked the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to review the case of Ahmed Ressam, an Algerian whose 22-year prison sentence was thrown out in January.
Ressam was arrested near the U.S.-Canadian border in December 1999 after customs agents found 124 pounds of explosives in the trunk of his car as he disembarked from a ferry at Port Angeles, Wash.
Prosecutors said he was intent on bombing the Los Angeles airport on the eve of the millennium. The arrest raised fears of terrorism attacks and prompted the cancellation of New Year's celebrations at Seattle's Space Needle."

"Jailed Muslim Blogger Defended Christians"
March 1, 2007
"Muslims revealed their true ugly face and appeared to all the world that they are full of brutality, barbarism and inhumanity."
Those were the words uttered by Abdel Kareem Nabil Soliman on his blog after Muslim rioters attacked a Christian church in Alexandria, Egypt in 2005.
Those same words were used by a judge last week to convict the 22-year-old Egyptian blogger on charges of "insulting Islam." Soliman will spend the next four years in prison."

"Egypt: 29 Muslim Brotherhood Financiers Have Assets Frozen"
(News from Associated Press and Xinhua)
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The Brotherhood is not peaceful - its attempts upon Nasser's life stand as testimony to its terror activities in Egypt. Terror group Hamas was founded by a Muslim Brotherhood member - Sheikh Ahmad Yassin - and carries out suicide bombings against Israeli civilians. Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the Muslim Brotherhood's spiritual leader, has issued a fatwa declaring it to be "permissable" for Muslims to kill Israeli civilians in terror attacks."
