WHERE'S OSAMA?

The folling interview is an insert in the story found in today's Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that I could not find on line, but wanted to included it. The main story is after the interview. Where the first lady stands Washington - Laura Bush offered several glimpses of life in the White House during her appearance last week at the National Press Club: Will she write a book? "I guess it'll (depend on) whether or not I can get that $8 million advance or whatever it is." The sum is what former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, her predecessor and now ...

SLAMABAD: In a significant move, Pakistan government has directed the Taliban ambassador here, Mullah Abdul Salam Zaeef, to 'limit' his activities and 'barred' him from holding daily media briefings highlighting Taliban propaganda against US military operations in Afghanistan. Zaeef who turned out to be big draw for the international media present in Pakistan to cover the war in Afghanistan has been told to limit his activities according to 'diplomatic norms', said a report in the website of the Pakistan daily The News. While there was no official reaction to the report, the Taliban official was reported to have been told ...

KABUL: The opposition Northern Alliance said Tuesday it had dealt the biggest blow to the Taliban since US airstrikes started a month ago with the capture of three key districts in northern Afghanistan. The fall of Zari, Keshendeh and Aq-Kupruk districts, reported by commander Atta Mohammad's force, took the opposition coalition a step closer to the key northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif. Atta's spokesman, Mohammad Ashraf Nadeem, said the three districts had fallen in heavy fighting in which 200 Taliban were killed and 300 had surrendered. The territory 70 kilometres south of Mazar-i-Sharif has swung backward and forwards between the two ...

On Sept. 25, after two weeks of hesitation, Russian President Vladimir Putin decided to participate in the anti-terrorism coalition. The events of the month following, however, clearly showed the Kremlin's two-faced policy. In fact, despite Russian claims of cooperation with the U.S., Russia continues to pursue its own policy vis-à-vis Afghanistan and Central Asia - a policy completely at odds with the U.S. and West's current struggle against terrorism. We know, for example, that Moscow did its best to block the flights of U.S. military aircraft to Tashkent, thus limiting deployment of U.S. troops in Uzbekistan and U.S. military-technological support ...

MOSCOW -- Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld met here Saturday with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Defense Minister Sergey Ivanov to discuss cooperation on the war on terrorism and ways to further the new U.S.-Russia relationship. Rumsfeld said his meetings were productive and helped "clear the underbrush" for the meetings set Nov. 16-18 between Putin and President Bush. The secretary met Ivanov at the Russian Defense Ministry and then both journeyed to the Kremlin to confer with Putin. Following that meeting, Rumsfeld and Ivanov took questions from the press. Both men agreed on the threat that weapons of mass destruction ...

Osama bin Laden has made many claims and charges. His most recent statement asserts that the Coalition is waging a campaign against Muslims, Afghans and Islam. You can draw your own conclusions: the facts contradict bin Laden's claim. Terrorist Attacks: The Muslim Toll The United States lost thousands of innocent citizens, including women and children, in attacks in Kenya, Tanzania, Yemen, and the United States. Hundreds of Muslims died in those attacks, including citizens from Islamic nations of Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Jordan, Lebanon, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, and Turkey. Ask yourselves this question: What did bin Laden do to defend the ...

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan--UPI-- U.S. Defense officials insisted Sunday that their military campaign in Afghanistan was going according to plan and had crippled the infrastructure of the country's ruling Taliban militia. U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld told a news conference in Pakistan that the Taliban were "not really functioning as a government" any more as a result of four weeks of relentless bombardment by U.S. airpower, comments echoed in Washington by senior military officers. Speaking after a ninety-minute meeting with Pakistan's military leader, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, Rumsfeld added that the United States was taking great care to minimize civilian casualties and defended ...

Muslims around the world have condemned the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11. But some have been reluctant to endorse the U.S.-led campaign against the Taliban, bin Laden and his al-Qaida terrorist network. That's to be expected in a few cases - Syria, for one, has never been a particularly close friend of the United States - and understandable in others. A fair number of Muslims aren't comfortable with the idea of supporting any nation that strongly supports Israel. But bin Laden and those who follow him have no more use for moderate Muslims than they do for Israel and the ...

Union Leader Faces Protest Charge Associated Press Last Updated: Nov. 4, 2001 at 6:52:10 p.m. NEW YORK - The city fire officers union president surrendered to police Sunday to face a trespassing charge, the second union leader arrested for a scuffle with police during a firefighters rally last week. ``I am absolutely outraged. Two of my young firefighters were lost, and there was a memorial visitation this afternoon. Instead, Mayor (Rudolph) Giuliani hauled me to court,'' said Capt. Peter Gorman, president of the Uniformed Fire Officers Association, said his arraignment Sunday. Gorman pleaded innocent to the misdemeanor charge. Kevin Gallagher, ...

KABUL, Afghanistan - Four weeks after U.S. bombing began, Afghans interviewed in the capital say they wish Osama bin Laden, the man referred to as ``the guest,'' would pack up and leave. ``Honestly we don't know why he stays here,'' Mohammed Farhat, a Kabul pharmacist, said of the chief suspect in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that killed about 4,500 people in the United States. ``The situation is very bad for the Afghan people, but there is nothing we can do.'' President Bush ordered the air assault Oct. 7 after the ruling Taliban militia repeatedly refused to surrender bin Laden, ...

A small Yemeni honey shop, a German appliance dealer, and a Middle Eastern bakery that churns out sweet pastries are being added to the same State Department terrorist list that includes Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network - making them the first overseas businesses to be branded as foreign terrorist organizations. Experts say the additions to the list will make it easier to disrupt terrorist funding, but that success would require complete cooperation from foreign governments that so far have turned up little evidence to shut down the businesses. On Wednesday, Attorney General John Ashcroft designated 46 terrorist groups, including overseas ...
