I doubt it because that may bring the truth to their attention and we know that's not very PC these days. Why there isn't more in the media about the Latino gangs overtaking and controlling the Black neighborhoods is beyond me.

The real puzzler to me is why do the NAACP lobbyists represent the Latinos?

Afghan Media: U.S. Troops Deleted Images

http://www.breitbart.com/news/2007/03/04/D8NLIME80.html

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) -- Afghan journalists covering the aftermath of a suicide bomb attack and shooting in eastern Afghanistan Sunday said U.S. troops deleted their photos and video and warned them not to publish or air any images of U.S. troops or a car where three Afghans were shot to death.

Afghan witnesses and gunshot victims said U.S. forces fired on civilians in cars and on foot along at least a six-mile stretch of road in Nangarhar province following a suicide attack against the military convoy. The U.S. military said militants also fired on American forces during the attack.


More at source. This will probably lead on the big lib papers in the morning.

Terrorists Take Recruitment Efforts Online (60 Minutes)
CBS News - 60 Minutes ^ | March 2, 2007 | Scott Pelley

Posted on 03/04/2007 4:23:47 PM PST by FreedomPoster

(CBS) America's top intelligence officer overseeing Iraq and Afghanistan says terrorists have made the Internet their most important recruiting tool. Brig. Gen. John Custer tells Scott Pelley that terrorist groups like al Qaeda are influencing Islamic youth to join their cause through Web sites devoted to jihad, or religious war.

Pelley's report will be broadcast this Sunday, March 4, at 7 p.m. ET/PT. [this was just broadcast in the Eastern time zone]

"I see 16-, 17-year-olds who have been indoctrinated on the Internet turn up on the battlefield. We capture them, we kill them every day in Iraq, in Afghanistan," says Custer. "Without a doubt, the Internet is the single-most important venue for the radicalization of Islamic youth," he tells Pelley.

"Iraqi Security Forces: al-Qaeda leader detained"
DPA ^ | 4 March 2007

Posted on 03/04/2007 12:12:42 PM PST by jmc1969

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A suspected leader of the group Islamic State in Iraq, which has ties to the al-Qaeda terrorist network, was detained in northern Iraq on Sunday, Iraqi security forces reported. Muharib Mohammed Abdullah, aka Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, was arrested in a joint raid by Iraqi and US soldiers in the city of Duluiya.

"This is a great success for the Iraqi security forces, comparable to the killing of Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi," the Salaheddin provincial administration in the town of Tikrit said in a statement.

Abdullah is a former legal expert from the city of Balad, north of Baghdad.

The Islamic State in Iraq organization claimed responsibility Saturday for the murder of 18 policemen.

Al-Zarqawi, the former leader of the al-Qaeda terrorist network in Iraq, was killed in the summer of 2006 by a US airstrike."

Iran poised to strike in wealthy Gulf states
March 5, 2007

Iran has trained secret networks of agents across the Gulf states to attack Western interests and incite civil unrest in the event of a military strike against its nuclear programme, a former Iranian diplomat has told The Sunday Telegraph.

Spies working as teachers, doctors and nurses at Iranian-owned schools and hospitals have formed sleeper cells ready to be "unleashed" at the first sign of any serious threat to Teheran, it is claimed. Trained by Iranian intelligence services, they are also said to be recruiting fellow Shias in the region, whose communities have traditionally been marginalised by the Gulf's ruling Sunni Arab clans.

Were America or Israel to attack Iran, such cells would be instructed to foment long-dormant sectarian grievances and attack the ex-tensive American and European business interests in wealthy states such as Dubai and Saudi Arabia. Such a scenario would bring chaos to the Gulf, one of the few areas of the Middle East that remains prosperous and has largely pro-Western governments.

The claims have been made by Adel Assadinia, a former career diplomat who was Iran's consul-general in Dubai and an adviser to the Iranian foreign ministry. They came as Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, made a formal visit to Saudi Arabia yesterday in what was widely seen as an attempt to defuse growing Sunni-Shia tensions in the Middle East.

US and Pakistani agents interrogate Taliban leader
Sunday, March 04, 2007

ISLAMABAD: US and Pakistani agents were interrogating the Taliban’s former defence minister on Saturday in the hope that he can help them hunt down other militant leaders, security officials said. Mullah Obaidullah Akhund, who had a one-million-dollar bounty on his head posted by the US Central Intelligence Agency, was arrested with four other suspects on Wednesday in Quetta.

Pakistani officials said Akhund, a key aide to Taliban supremo Mullah Mohammad Omar and an insurgent commander in southern Afghanistan, was flown to the capital Islamabad by helicopter after his capture. “He is being interrogated by a joint team of Pakistani and US officials in Islamabad,” a senior security official said on condition of anonymity. He did not specify which US agency the officials were from.

"Cyberstalkers lurk where caution lags
Put online safety first, advise victims, authorities"

By Brittany Butcher,
Staff Writer


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Lynse Williford's trouble started with a conversation she had online. It ended with the frightened 21-year-old calling the police.

E-mails, text and instant messages, and chat room visits can turn from pleasant to pernicious quickly when someone refuses to take "no" for an answer. And with outlets such as the Web site MySpace and devices like global positioning systems, stalkers have new tools to seek out their prey.

When they use them, it's called cyberstalking, a crime that's gaining the attention of law enforcement officers as the number of reports slowly increases.

They haven't recorded a lot of cases yet, but local authorities expect to see a rise in the use of technology and computers to stalk victims, said Wilmington police Detective Bobby Benton.

"Computer crime is a type of crime that's only going to increase in the future," said State Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Hans Miller. "The Internet's a good thing because it really facilitates commerce and instant communication. But it's like any other tool: It can be used for good, but it can also be abused."

Though law enforcement officers work to protect citizens from cyberstalking, prevention is the name of the game, Miller said. He advised having an e-mail address that is shared only with family and close friends, and using other e-mail addresses when joining chat rooms or using social Web sites like MySpace and Facebook."

BIOLOGICAL WAR-FEAR
"Syria ready with bio-terror if U.S. hits Iran
Damascus reportedly hiding WMD among commercial pharmaceuticals"
Posted: March 5, 2007
1:00 a.m. Eastern

By Jerome R. Corsi
© 2007 WorldNetDaily.com

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "An American biodefense analyst living in Europe says if the U.S. invades Iran to halt its nuclear ambitions, Syria is ready to respond with weapons of mass destruction, specifically biological weapons.

"Syria is positioned to launch a biological attack on Israel or Europe should the U.S. attack Iran," Jill Bellamy-Dekker told WND. "The Syrians are embedding their biological weapons program into their commercial pharmaceuticals business and their veterinary vaccine-research facilities. The intelligence service overseas Syria's 'bio-farm' program and the Ministry of Defense is well interfaced into the effort."

Bellamy-Decker currently directs the Public Health Preparedness program for the European Homeland Security Association under the French High Committee for Civil Defense."
