Thanks JS. Please keep us updated if you can.

This is the 5th place (WH, Capitol Bldg, Phily, NY, Fl) where white powder/ricin has turned up.

Authorities say it's domestic, I don't believe them. I think it's yet another attack wave. I don't like the timing. Many people discounting Daleel & Co. I don't discount any threat. The ricin at the Cap turned up within the timeframe specified by Daleel & EOM. /tinfoil/

Purported al-Qaida Shows Terror Planning

By TAREK AL-ISSAWI, Associated Press Writer

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates - A video purported to be from Osama bin Laden (news - web sites)'s al-Qaida terror network shows Saudi militants planning, training for and carrying out what it claimed was the Nov. 8 bombing of a housing compound for foreigners in the Saudi capital that killed 17 people.



The 90-minute video, viewed on an Islamic Web site by The Associated Press in Dubai, shows a vehicle driving up to what it says is the Muhaya compound in Riyadh before loud explosions and gunfire erupt. That portion is blurry and badly lit, and the building is not visible.

It was not possible to verify the video's authenticity. However, it uses language similar to past statements attributed to al-Qaida, and the training scenes are like those seen in videos of al-Qaida camps in Afghanistan (news - web sites). The Web site that showed the video has released other seemingly credible al-Qaida statements.

In October, an al-Qaida-style recording surfaced on the Internet that included what was described as audio of militants launching May 12 attacks on Western housing compounds in Riyadh that killed 26 people and the nine attackers. Bits of video also were accessible with it, but the only clip allegedly of the assault itself showed a black screen with text identifying gunshot noises as a recording of the start of the attack.

The new video contains excerpts from several of bin Laden's previously broadcast comments, as well as the words of other al-Qaida members and Khattab, a Saudi-born Chechen military leader who was killed by Russian forces in 2002.

Militants are seen training with rocket-propelled grenades and surface-to-air missiles, and in hand-to-hand combat.

The video also showed training courses on bomb-making and displayed detonators, timers and wires. It calls the training camp al-Battar and says it is on the Arabian peninsula.

American and Saudi officials blamed al-Qaida for the attack on the Muhaya compound. Although Arabs and other Muslims were living in the compound, the video claimed it housed members of the CIA (news - web sites) as well as other Americans. No Americans were killed in the attack.

"If we wanted to destroy the country, then attacking institutions beneficial to the people is much easier than killing a single American," said a man who identifies himself as Nasser bin Hamed al-Harbi, allegedly one of the two suicide bombers.

The video showed men purportedly carrying out reconnaissance of the compound, and said the attack was rehearsed repeatedly and computer-simulated.

Some of the footage clearly came from a handheld camera. Two voices could be heard praying as the vehicle moved, moments before the sound of an explosion.

Some members of the team that attacked the compound were believed to have escaped.

In one scene on the video, more than 10 men are shown, most of them covering their faces with ski masks or Arab headscarves, carrying RPGs, semiautomatic weapons, grenades and AK-47 semiautomatic rifles. The video also showed the two purported suicide bombers.

Some militants were shown spraying the vehicle dark blue with light blue stripes along the sides. Saudi authorities said the vehicle used in the attack had been painted to resemble a Saudi security vehicle, with a dark blue body and light blue markings.

"The mujahedeen target only the crusaders. As for the infidel leaders, their day will come, God willing," a masked man identified in a subtitle as Abdul Aziz al-Moqrin said on the video, holding an assault rifle.

Al-Moqrin is on a Saudi list of most-wanted terror suspects. He has been identified in newspaper reports as the mastermind of the attack.

Saudi Arabia has been under pressure to show it is more active in fighting terrorism since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, in which 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudi citizens.

General says Russia won't destroy tactical nuclear weapons

Interfax

Moscow, 26 November: Col-Gen Yuriy Baluyevskiy, first deputy chief of the General Staff of the Russian armed forces, has reported that Russia does not plan to destroy its tactical nuclear weapons.

"We do not plan to remove tactical nuclear weapons from Russia's arsenal, although we see that they are not a threat to the Americans," he said.

The General Staff representative noted that "the USA's tactical nuclear weapons deployed in Europe are for Russia acquiring a strategic nature, since theoretically they could be used on our command centres and strategic nuclear centres".

"However, I am sure that you have to be mad to propose to the political leadership of Russia and the USA that any problems should be resolved through the use of nuclear weapons," Yuriy Baluyevskiy said.

Sean, this is the reality. Why are you so hung up on Russia?

Welcome! You raise interesting points, not combatitive or arrogant at all...proxy of a proxy is intriguing. Obviously Iran could fit in somewhere considering their nuclear interest and development and Pakistan is also ready to pop with internal struggles. While I don't think the Russian proxy question should be tabled yet and I don't think the discussion on Russia is a ditch but a necessary first step in examining the global scene from the USA, there are many nations and entities playing both sides as you pointed out. Malaysia would be worth going over with a fine tooth comb. Islamic culture seems to play into duplicity automatically when dealing with the rest of humanity. And the socialist creep across the southern hemisphere is on our doorsteps.

Berezovsky Is No Longer Berezovsky

By Valeria Korchagina
Staff Writer It's official. Boris Abramovich Berezovsky is now Platon Ilyich Yelenin.

Britain said it has issued documents allowing the wealthy businessman who is wanted in Russia on fraud charges to travel under the new identity.

"Boris Berezovsky ... submitted a statutory declaration formally changing his name to Platon Yelenin, and the Immigration and Nationality Directorate issued a travel document, in accordance with the provisions of the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees, in that name," Home Secretary David Blunkett said Thursday, according to The Associated Press.

Berezovsky has been living in self-imposed exile in Britain since 2000. Russian prosecutors tried to extradite him to face multimillion-dollar fraud charges, but a London court threw out the case in September when it learned that the British government had granted him asylum.

Berezovsky said Sunday that the new travel documents with Platon Yelenin's name were issued in October at his own request.

"So officially I am now Platon Yelenin, although for any public appearances or contacts with the press I am still Boris Berezovsky," Berezovsky said by telephone from London.

CIA chief defends prewar efforts
February 5, 2004

BY KATHERINE PFLEGER ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON-- In his first public defense of prewar intelligence, CIA Director George Tenet said Thursday that U.S. analysts had never claimed Iraq was an imminent threat, the main argument used by President Bush for going to war.

Excellent post. I have to tell you, however, that you are shoveling sand against the tide here.

There are some well intentioned posters here, and there are also some smart and informed lurkers.

However, there are some folks here that have guzzled the conspiracy and rumor cool-aid, and thoughtful analysis is not the remedy for their self-induced anxiety attack.

If you lurk long enough, and read every post, you will find that for some, it's like deposing a witness. The more they talk, the more they spin, the less credible the story. Well intentioned as some of them may be, once you challenge the conclusion, or even some of the predicates, they will be on you.

Excellent and well thought out post NM. While I do not agree with everything you said you definitely make a good case.

Kudos
