The former Taleban regime of Afghanistan has issued a rare statement urging Afghans to take part in a jihad (holy war) against US-led coalition forces based in the country.

Gee, I thought maybe they'd changed their minds by now. I guess we're really not winning this "war on terror" after all. </sarcasm>

re post no. 57: "I'm sorry we didn't capture Omar"

And I'm sorry they didn't catch Omar, too as well as the rest of these bad guys hiding around the world including this guy IMAD FAYEZ MUGNIYAH aka "Hajj"( according to his WANTED TERRORIST poster). Gosh, a reward of up to $25 Million for Mugniyah aka "Hajj."

***BUSH COUNTRY.org - Opinion Corner: "HIZBULLAH SECRETARY-GENERAL ASKS ARAB STATES TO STOP A U.S. OCCUPATION OF IRAQ" by Jeremy Reynalds (ARTICLE SNIPPETS: "The secretary-general of the outlawed anti-American and anti-Zionist terrorist group Hizbullah is asking Arab states to cooperate in an attempt to stop the United States from occupying Iraq. Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said Friday that rather than being aimed at protecting Iraqis from Saddam Hussein, the impending war is really all about protecting American and Israeli interests in the region. According to the web site www.moqawama.org/page2/f_report.htm of the self-titled "Islamic Resistance Support Association" (IRSA), Nasrallah, who was speaking at a gathering in southern Beirut for the 24th anniversary of the Islamic revolution in Iran, addressed all Arabs and asked them not to be fooled by U.S. justification for military action." ... Nasrallah said that Arabs everywhere will face critical events in the next few weeks, and they should all start preparing themselves." ... "Like Hizbullah, the IRSA is also virulently anti-Zionist. A hyperlink on its web site labeled "invitation." www.moqawama.tv/page2/invita.htm asks "intellectuals and cultured peoples" to contribute materials to the further development of the web site. It reads (sic), "No matter whether they are self-compiled or quoted, creative or documentary and be it Arabic, English, French, German or Spanish. This is because fighting the Zionist occupation is the cause of all honorables throughout the world."

Reports have Muganiyeh first meeting with Bin Laden as early as 1995 and those meetings have continued. More than this, since al-Qaida fled Afghanistan at the end of last year, the Sunday Telegraph reports, between 80 and 100 al- Qaida fighters were provided with false passports by Hezbollah before being relocated to southern Lebanon, Saudi Arabia and Yemen. The same report acknowledges that Hezbollah, working hand in hand with al-Qaida, has set up cells in the Far East - including Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore. It is well known that Hezbollah has operated in Gaza and the West Bank for years, but the recent revelation by the Shin Bet in Israel that al- Qaida has now also joined them there, is chilling evidence of a level of cooperation previously unsuspected. Such news comes as a dire warning to American, Israeli and Jewish communities throughout the world.") (122702)

re post No. 61: "A Holy war? The Taliban wants to be shot full of holes? OK."

Is this a case of BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR? If so, the taliban has bitten off more than it can chew.
