    ecent intelligence indicates that al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri has a "heart complaint," according to a senior official involved in international counterterrorism efforts. The official said the information suggests Zawahiri had a potentially serious condition but cautioned it was difficult to ascertain the severity of his health problems and what effect they might have on his longevity. The possibility that Zawahiri, who just turned 68, is seriously ill increases uncertainty over al Qaeda's long-term leadership succession plans. Osama bin Laden's son Hamza bin Laden had been widely tipped to one day take over command of al Qaeda but a US...

    Chattanooga aftermath: Why do major television networks continue to get away with mollycoddling murdering radical terrorists in the very wake of their evil carnage? Within four days of the attack that claimed the lives of four US Marines and a Navy sailors slaughtered in the Chattanooga shooting spree, ABC is portraying poor Mohammod Abdulazeez—not as a radical Islamic terrorist—but as a “disturbed, suicidal young man using drugs, preparing for bankruptcy and facing an appearance in criminal court”. While their loved ones are in tearful mourning, the mainstream media’s crying killer Abdulazeez a river and getting über maudlin with the violins....

    One reason for the ongoing battle between Sen. Chuck Grassley and the Department of Justice over the identities of as many as 13 to 16 current Obama Administration political appointees who provided legal counsel to suspected or convicted terrorists and enemy combatants being held in detention, is not so much what these lawyers did before joining the administration. Rather, says a Department of Justice source, it stems from the administration's own attempts to identify any official paper or email trails of those DOJ attorneys that would reveal not just past but current efforts -- since their appointment, in other words...

    The Founding Bloggers article shows how INEPT the State of Illinois is in receiving terrorists from Gitmo. Maybe Obama ought to re-think this?

    No disruptions at Ayers' visit By AD CRABLE, Staff Writer There were no hecklers inside where Bill Ayers spoke. And the couple dozen students and people who supported or protested the former radical's appearance outside politely agreed to disagree. With a massive police presence and tight security, feared confrontations, speech disruptions and even possible violence did not materialize, and Ayers' entire visit on Millersville University's campus Thursday took place in peace. Not that people didn't feel strongly about a man who admitted to bombing government buildings during the Vietnam War being invited here. "What he did was so wrong," said...

    Nahariya, Israel -- Dr. Uri Rehany picked his way through the wreckage of his hospital department and shook his head in sorrow. "This is not a war with a country," he said.

A Hezbollah rocket smashed into the eye department on the fourth floor of the surgical wing of the Western Galilee Hospital, near Nahariya in northern Israel on Friday, destroying the entire floor and causing more than $200,000 worth of damage. Rehany, the 59-year-old director of the eye department, was first on the scene. "We heard an enormous explosion," he said. "We...

The PFLP-GC is an arm of the Syrian military — the terrorist army. It has been training Hamas and a range of terrorists aligned with Syria. The organization still retains terrorist camps in Lebanon, particularly in the Bekaa Valley. Osama Matar knows a lot about PFLP-GC methods. He trained in a terrorist...
