“SC Mom Hunts Terrorists Online”
Peter Biello
WILMINGTON, NC (2007-11-01)
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Mansfield even receives fan mail from people thanking her. But online threats from Al Qaeda have her concerned about her family. She uses the pseudonym Laura Mansfield and says the overseas intimidation is partly why she’s moving from South Carolina.
It’s not the ones that post the threats that worry me. It’s the ones that don’t, she says.”

“Ex-Saudi ambassador: Kingdom could have helped U.S. prevent 9/11”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “(CNN) — Saudi Arabia could have helped the United States prevent al Qaeda’s 2001 attacks on New York and Washington if American officials had consulted Saudi authorities in a “credible” way, the kingdom’s former ambassador said in a documentary aired Thursday.
The comments by Prince Bandar bin Sultan are similar to the remarks this week by Saudi King Abdullah that suggested Britain could have prevented the July 2005 train bombings in London if it had heeded warnings from Riyadh.
Speaking to the Arabic satellite network Al-Arabiya on Thursday, Bandar — now Abdullah’s national security adviser — said Saudi intelligence was “actively following” most of the September 11, 2001, plotters “with precision.”
“If U.S. security authorities had engaged their Saudi counterparts in a serious and credible manner, in my opinion, we would have avoided what happened,” he said.”
School Buses as Terrorism Targets: Legitimate Concern?
Terrorism probably wasn’t high on your list of worries when you put your kids on the school bus this morning.
But there are some who are concerned.
They think terrorists are plotting and planning to target schools and school buses.
WBTV’s Jamie Boll is says some are going to say this sounds very alarmist.
And my first reaction to this topic was “come on...”
But then you learn things like, the FBI warning police, members of extremist groups have signed up as school bus drivers.

THANKS Velveeta for posting this.
More than “some” should be concerned.

Yep, I hope his words gets a lot and a lot and a lot of exposure.

Muslims Demolish Three Christians’ Houses in Pakistani Village
By Sheraz Khurram Khan
Special Correspondent for ASSIST News Service in Pakistan
Christians condemn demolition of their houses
KASUR, LAHORE, PAKISTAN (ANS) — Muslim residents of a Pakistani village demolished the homes of three Christians recently.
The Muslims, residents of a Pakistani village in the province of Punjab, claimed that the Christians had constructed their houses on a land which had been allocated for a Muslim graveyard.
Police, who arrived at the scene after an unidentified caller called them, arrested a number of Muslims who were demolishing the Christians’ homes.
James Masih, a Christian resident of the village, told the Sharing Life Ministry that some Muslims compounded the issue by making an announcement on Oct. 19 after Friday prayers through the village mosque’s loudspeaker.
Views of demolished houses
About 80 Muslims riding tractors and other vehicles headed to the Christians’ houses. The alleged perpetrators, most of whom were allegedly armed with weapons, then started demolishing the homes. They also allegedly desecrated Christians literature.
According to the Sharing Life Ministry, the Muslim residents of the village claimed that the Christians had constructed houses on the land which was assigned for their graveyard. The Christian residents of the village, however, told the ministry that they were the legal owners of the land that had been given to them by former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto in 1995.
Ministry official Sohail Johnson told ASSIST that while the mosque announcement “helps” Muslim perpetrators, it magnifies greatly the potential damage to the Christians. He was referring to the emotional reaction that such an announcement evokes from Muslims. Christians have been living in the Lobana village for 35 years, Johnson said.
Sohail Johnson is talking to the Christian villagers
Johnson said he had been told by a Christian lady, “Muslims threatened to raze our houses after they have served their terms in prison. They are very powerful people. They often brandish their weapons and open fire into the air and that leaves our kids scared.”
Some Muslim residents of the village told Sharing Life Ministry that they also condemned the destruction of Christian-owned houses by Muslims.
At the time of Pakistan’s 1947 independence, there were over 50 Christian villages but their number decreased considerably over the years as Christians sold their lands. Christian villagers in predominantly Muslim villages are mostly landless, and often face persecution by Muslim landowners.

“Al-Sharq Al-Awsat Editor: After U.S. Withdrawal, Gulf Will Be ‘Under the Siege of the Islamic Revolution and Under the Pressure of Syrian Meddling’”
SNIPPET: “In an editorial titled “[The] American Withdrawal and the Second Stage,” published October 9, 2007 in Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, editor Tariq Alhomayed warned of what might happen after the U.S. withdraws its forces from Iraq. He argued that Iraq would be taken over by Iran and Syria, which are seeking to dominate the Middle East, and that the result would be the spread of extremism and violence throughout the region.
The following are excerpts from the article, as it appeared in the English edition of Al-Sharq Al-Awsat”
