"Jihadists wired
to explode"

"Say Iraqi bombers took heroin, speed"



BY JAMES GORDON MEEK
DAILY NEWS WASHINGTON BUREAU


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "WASHINGTON - Some suicide bombers who battled U.S. troops in Fallujah were doped up on heroin and speed, the Pentagon's top general said yesterday.

Air Force Gen. Richard Myers, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and his aides said the suicidal jihadists used the drugs for courage or to motivate them into martyrdom.

Myers said some of the suiciders in Fallujah "are foreign fighters, but not exclusively."

But when asked to account for the fanaticism of some of the fighters, Myers said, "The other thing you need to understand is...the number of drugs found there as well.""

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "[India News]: Ahmedabad, Nov 19 : An Islamic cleric arrested earlier this month was planning to bring militant groups together to fight for an Islamic state in India, police claimed Friday.

The plan was revealed during the interrogation of Mohammed Nasiruddin alias Maulana Nasiruddin, arrested in Hyderabad after a shootout in which one of his supporters was killed, police here said.

"Maulana has been associated with Jamaat-e-Islami, a moderate organisation since 1970. The notorious Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) is a student wing of the organisation and Maulana has been associated with it too," Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime Branch) D.G. Vanzara told reporters."
