My dear brother and sister FReepers,
At this, of all times in my lifetime, I would like nothing more than to be able to read these threads and reply to them. I have much I would like to say.
BUT, I cannot!
Why?
Because I am trying hard to raise the finances needed to keep FreeRepublic up and running so that we can continue to share valuable information and respond to it.
I beg you, if you have not yet donated to FreeRepublic this quarter, do so now!
If you have already donated, THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND GOD BLESS YOU, please ping your friends, and FReep on...!
I realize you are giving to lots of Relief efforts and I encourage you to do so. But we need to help FR too. Where would we be right now without it?
If you have no money, please come and bump the Fundraiser Thread.
I would really like to reach our goal quickly so that I and the rest of the dedicated FReepers who are working the Fundraiser Threads can participate in what is undeniably the most important time in FreeRepublic's history.
WHERE WOULD YOU GET YOUR NEWS FROM IF FREEREPUBLIC WASN'T HERE?<--click here

A necessary first step. Then, recruit Iranians to get into position to garner intelligence. Then strike.
I agree. VERY interesting article.
God Bless America
Exactly.
The Israelis don't arrest these goons; they kill them, dramatically and mercilessly.
These SOBS need to be put on notice so that they're afraid to sleep at night.
Bin Laden has dozens if not hundreds of agents at the ready in the U.S. and Europe, many of whom are educated Arab militants who receive sophisticated training in bomb-making and communications in Afghanistan. In recent months, police in Europe arrested 20 residents suspected of planning to bomb the European parliament in Strasbourg.
But it is Afghanistan where bin Laden has the means, the freedom and space to build up his network. Al'Qaeda now has some 3,000 members from 12 different countries in Afghanistan who fight for the Taliban in the 055 Arab Brigade, which bin Laden finances and commands.
From everything I have heard on CNN (yes they do have the best analysis of this) that this terrorist network is all interwoven in 60 countries and their analyst thought that Bin Laden and Sadaam were linked with Bin Laden supporters involved in this act of terrorism but it took more than BinLaden to pull it off! Wish I could remember who gave the analysis but he had a map of all terrorist organizations and where they were headquartered.
I've turned to CNN a lot more in the last week for their military analysis. Fox News and msnbc aren't bad either, but CNN is really supplying some good stuff that the other two media outlets just aren't offering enough of right now.
If you ask me, Saddam's hand prints are all over last weeks attacks. It was probably a co-effort along with Usama Bin Ladin. Saddam wants revenge for the Gulf War and taking his aggressions out on America and on the son of the man, who crippled his military a decade ago, is his priority. Aside form holding onto his power base in Iraq, Saddam's desire to get back at GHW Bush remains his ultimate objective in life. Believe it.
God Bless America
Instinctively, I have known that there had to be some brains other than this buffoon Osama Bin Laden (net worth of $300 Million U.S., on the run, hiding in some cave in Afghanistan, chats with the media etc.) actually running operations. This article from Janes implicating Mughniyeh ties up some loose ends. This individual, Mughniyeh is a spook who hides in the shadows, has had plastic surgery and doesn't draw attention to himself, obscure and unobtrusive. He needs to be ferreted out and exterminated like a rodent.
Janes is a creditable entity. This is the best article I have read since the events of September 11, 2001.
