Please read post #12 of 16 on the 'Chechen rebels condemn U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell for calling them terrorists' thread.
Doesn't it make you wonder about whether or not the Russian army is pursuing a form of terrorism against the Chechen population?
Last year, the U.S. Treasury Department designated Abu Hamza a global terrorist and froze his assets. The department alleges that Abu Hamza was an officer in the Islamic Army of Aden, the terrorist organization that claimed responsibility for the bombing of the USS Cole in Yemen in 2000, which killed 17 American sailors. Yemen accuses Abu Hamza of sending 10 men from Britain, including his son and a stepson, to attack British and American targets in Aden. The group kidnapped 16 Western tourists, including two Americans, in December 1998. Four of the hostages died during a rescue.
Abu Hamza has been charged in Yemen for that crime, but Britain does not have an extradition agreement with the Middle Eastern nation.
The cleric has long been suspected of recruiting for al-Qaida. He denies that but openly supports bin Laden and publishes incendiary speeches on the Web site set up by Ujaama.
In an interview with Canadian television, he said, "Everybody was happy when the planes hit the World Trade Center. Anybody who tells you that they are not happy, they are hypocrites on the Muslim nation, I am telling you, everybody."
Abu Hamza was arrested in Britain more than two years ago, but no charges were filed. U.S. authorities are frustrated that he hasn't been charged there.
