September 18, 2002 -- Pictures and descriptions of U.S. landmarks - including at least one military base -were found on a laptop computer seized from alleged Sept. 11 organizer Ramzi Binalshibh, it was reported yesterday.

Investigators also found a flight-simulator program similar to the kind the Sept. 11 hijackers used for training, ABC News reported.

The US took these guys off to be tortured. They will soon talk.

"Officials didn't specify the targets that appeared on the computer."

At long last! Someone who doesn't tell every bit of intelligence they know to the stupid reporters!

Tortured? Just because the guy has a bandage over (you name the part) doesn't mean a thing! Need a reason why things are? Try here. Guaranteed to be worth the wait and whould be viewed everyday by all Americans to strengthen our resolve for the things we have todo in days ahead.

Playing Barry Manilow's Copacabana in his cell 24/7 doesn't need bandages.

There'd be plenty of bandages required after a couple of days of your infernal torture.

If somebody did that to me, I'd tear off my own ears. And when that didn't work, I'd try to rip out my own heart. Then I'd see about chewing off my own head.

Oh, I don't know, I think I'd like to know what areas to avoid, what they are targeting, etc. I hate it when the press tells the enemy what WE are targeting... but knowing who the enemy is targeting would be handy information for the citizenry.

Since the Islamofascists have such a fetish for hitting American landmarks, we should put some of theirs in the sights. We should nuke Mecca, for starters.
