  • U.S. Relies More on Allies in Questioning Terror Suspects

    New York Times ^ | May 23, 2009 | Eric Schmitt and Mark Mazzeti
    The United States is now relying heavily on foreign intelligence services to capture, interrogate and detain all but the highest-level terrorist suspects seized outside the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan, according to current and former American government officials. The change represents a significant loosening of the reins for the United States, which has worked closely with allies to combat violent extremism since the 9/11 attacks but is now pushing that cooperation to new limits. In the past 10 months, for example, about a half-dozen midlevel financiers and logistics experts working with Al Qaeda have been captured and are being held...
  • Pakistan ISI top boss met Osama aide (Official Pak Govt possibly a WOT double agent?)

    NEW DELHI: One of the top bosses of Pakistan's intelligence agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) has held talks with Osama bin Laden’s key aides in Miram Shah in Pakistan’s restive federal administered tribal Area, according to Times Now. In fact, highly placed intelligence sources told Times Now that around the time when Pakistan’s foreign minister Makhdoom Shah Mahmood Qureshi was visiting Washington and meeting officials of the Barack Obama administration and reaffirming Pakistan's determination to fight terrorism, a senior ISI official of the rank of a major-general no less was meeting Sirajuddin Haqqani considered an ally of the Taliban as also...

    ...Shortly after the end of the final Democratic Primary there was a rash of articles and reports flowing from left-wing organizations that openly attacked John McCain and his pro-life stance. These attacks, many of which were false and misleading, were designed simply to cloud the debate and values of Clinton supporters in an attempt to unite them around Obama. Once again, following Saturday's Saddleback forum, we find ourselves entrenched in the abortion debate and overlooking what should be highlighted as the fundamental difference between Barack Obama and John McCain. Our government and all nations' governments first and foremost function is...

They are currently in U.S. prisons, incapacitated,” Obama said adding, "And the fact that the administration has not tried to do that has created a situation where not only have we never actually put many of these folks on trial, but we have destroyed our credibility when it comes to rule of law all around the world, and...

Staff at Whitemoor jail, Cambs, believe a "serious incident is imminent" as several wings become dominated by Muslim prisoners. There is an on-going theme of fear and instability among employees, says the Prison Service's Directorate of High Security report. "There is much talk around the establishment about 'the Muslims'," it says.

    From Bosnia to Kosovo The "Bosnian pattern" described in the 1997 Congressional RPC report was replicated in Kosovo. With the complicity of NATO and the US State Department, Mujahideen mercenaries from the Middle East and Central Asia were recruited to fight in the ranks of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) in 1998-99, largely supporting NATO's war effort. Confirmed by British military sources, the task of arming and training of the KLA had been entrusted in 1998 to the US Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) and Britain's Secret Intelligence Services MI6, together with "former and serving members of 22 SAS [Britain's 22nd...

Holbrook, one of the authors of the Dayton peace accord that ended the 1992-1995 war in Bosnia, told Sarajevo's Dnevni Avaz Saturday that recent claims about an immunity deal the U.S. granted the former Bosnian Serb political leader, Radovan Karadžić, were "disgusting lies." Former Hague Tribunal prosecution spokeswoman, Florence Hartmann, said in a recently published book that Washington allowed Karadžić impunity in exchange for his withdrawal from the Bosnian political life.

    US forces in Iraq said on Sunday they have captured a suspected Al-Qaeda operative linked to the killing of Sheikh Abdul Sattar Abu Reesha, a key US ally in the fight against the Islamist group. The US military named the suspect as Fallah Khalifa Hiyas Fayyas al-Jumayli and said he had been involved in a plot to kill tribal leaders in the restive western province of Anbar. Abu Reesha, a Sunni sheikh, was killed when his convoy was hit by a car bomb on Thursday near his home in Ramadi, the provincial capital of the restive western province of Anbar....

The testimony of Bahraini-born Ali Ahmed Ali Hamad is key in the trial of Rasim Delic, the highest-ranking Bosnian Muslim army officer indicted by the United Nations war crimes tribunal. He is accused of knowing that the foreign fighters killed, tortured and raped Croat and Serb soldiers and civilians, and of having failed to punish them. Hundreds...
  • Al-Qaida helpers present in Bosnia, US diplomat warns

    SARAJEVO: Al-Qaida uses Bosnia as a transit point, receiving help from Islamic veterans of Bosnia's 1992-95 war, US diplomat Raffi Gregorian said in an interview with a Sarajevo daily published Saturday. "Certain intelligence agencies consider Bosnia-Hercegovina as one of the Al-Qaida's transit points," Gregorian sources. "There are sympathisers in the country who are ready to help Al-Qaida with hiding agents, providing financial support or providing false documents," he added. Gregorian is the principal deputy to Miroslav Lajcak, the top international representative in Sarajevo. Asked whether there were so-called 'sleepers' in the Balkans country, Gregorian replied "No, there are more likely...

    STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Aug. 6 (UPI) -- Sweden is in danger of becoming a recruiting center for terrorists planning attacks on other countries, it was reported Monday. At least 20 Swedes, most with suspected links to Islamic extremists, have been arrested world wide on suspicion of terror since 2001, The Local reported. Sweden’s security service, Sapo, said the country could be used to recruit, finance and plan attacks elsewhere, The Local reported. Swedes arrested for terrorist activities since 2002 include Mirsad Bektasevic, jailed for eight years in Bosnia, and Oussama Kassir, suspected by U.S. authorities of helping set up a terrorist...

Schindler, author of a book on terrorism, told CNN Al-Qaeda members were invited to Bosnia by that country’s leadership, where they set up training camps operational from 1992 until 1995. He claims Osama Bin Laden exploited the war in Bosnia for his own interests, and says there was “a worrying level of support” for the Mujahedin on the part of the U.S. administration of that time.

    As if Michael Vick didn't have enough troubles, he may have to fork over $63 billion — that's billion, with a B — if one Jonathan Lee Riches prevails in court. The aptly named Riches' lawsuit against Vick, filed this week in U.S. District Court in Richmond, was handwritten. That's because Riches is currently a guest of the Graybar Hotel in South Carolina (it's not clear which town; his handwriting's a little hard to read). The lawsuit does not explain what landed Riches in the clink, but does spell out a number of dastardly allegations: that Vick supposedly stole Riches'...

Spy chiefs warn that one operative had said he was planning an attack on “a par with Hiroshima and Nagasaki” in an attempt to “shake the Roman throne”, a reference to the West. Another plot could be timed to coincide with Tony Blair stepping down as prime minister, an event described by Al-Qaeda planners as a “change in the head of the company”.

I told the Americans a long time before Aug. 2 and told the British as well … that in the future there will be terrorism with weapons of mass destruction." Saddam goes on to say such attacks would be difficult to stop. "In the future, what would prevent a booby-trapped car causing a nuclear explosion in Washington or a germ or a chemical one?" But he...

Ouzghar's lawyer John Norris made his final arguments in court yesterday, saying the theory that Ouzghar belonged to a Canadian Islamic terror cell with roots in Bosnia was based on thin and at times non-existent evidence. In France, Ouzghar was convicted in absentia for forging documents, uttering those doctored documents, conspiracy to do both of those crimes and participation in a criminal organization. He was sentenced to five years in prison. If he's extradited to France,...

    The FBI's top counterterrorism official harbors lots of concerns: weapons of mass destruction, undetected homegrown terrorists and the possibility that old-fashioned mobsters will team up with al-Qaida for the right price. Though there is no direct evidence yet of organized crime collaborating with terrorists, the first hints of a connection surfaced in a recent undercover FBI operation. Agents stopped a man with alleged mob ties from selling missiles to an informant posing as a terrorist middleman. That case and other factors are heightening concerns about a real-life episode of the Sopranos teaming with Osama bin Laden's followers. "We are continuing...

Senator Carl Levin says that the report is "a devastating indictment of the Bush-Cheney administration's unrelenting, misleading, and deceptive attempts" to connect Saddam's regime to bin Laden's al Qaeda....

    Sarajevo, 5 Sept. (AKI) - The Bosnian authorities have revoked the citizenship of 50 foreigners, mainly from Asian and African countries who are suspected of having links to the al-Qaeda terrorist network, a Bosnian official said on Tuesday.

    BELGRADE -- Milorad Dodik said that an independence referendum for the Republic of Srpska is unavoidable. According to the RS Prime Minister, the referendum is unavoidable because of the inability to keep Bosnia-Herzegovina unified in the long-term. Dodik said that one of the essential conditions for the RS remaining in Bosnia-Herzegovina is for the Federation’s government to give guarantees that it will not fall into the clutches of radical Islamic politics. Dodik said that the Kosovo discussions are being followed closely in Banja Luka. “Kosovo separating would spark people in the RS to think of having equal rights for us...

    COPENHAGEN Four Muslims charged with supplying explosives for a planned terror attack in Europe were under surveillance for two years after meeting a radical Islamic leader in London, the former intelligence chief of Denmark said Friday.

"We became aware of the group two years ago when its members...
  • BALKANS: SERBIA'S FOREIGN MINISTER SLAMS 'NATURAL ALBANIA' COMMENTS

    Belgrade, 23 August (AKI) - Serbia's foreign minister, Vuk Draskovic has reacted with undiplomatic vehemence to remarks made on Tuesday by an Albanian official that Serbia, Macedonia and Montenegro were "unnatural creations," and that all Albanians living in the region should unite to form a 'natural Albania' by 2013. The comments made by Albanian prime minister Sali Berisha's political adviser, Koco Danaj, to Kosovo Albanian language daily Epoka were - surprisingly - ignored by press in the Serbian capital, Belgrade. However, Draskovic’s ministry immediately issued a sharp statement upbraiding Albania for its "expansionist" aspirations. "The message was sent through the...

    MITROVICA, Serbia - Serbs in northern Kosovo have recruited hundreds of former Yugoslav army soldiers to defend them from attacks by ethnic Albanians pushing for independence for the province, Serb officials said on Tuesday. It is the latest sign of resistance among the Serb minority in the United Nations-run province to the drive for independence by the 2 million-strong Albanian majority. U.N.-led talks look likely to give Kosovo some form of independence before year-end. --- "We have been forced into such a move because of police ineffectiveness, and the cover-up of crimes and their perpetrators," Zvecan mayor Dragisa Milovic told...

    Apparently, it's not just Brazilians who like Orkut. Bloggers Blog points to "Orkut Home to Osama Bin Laden Fan Clubs" from USA Today, which reports that Google's social networking service is popular with Al-Qaeda sympathizers. The largest community there has 2,000 members, and there are at least 10 different Al-Qaeda related communities. Google says it may remove objectionable material from Orkut and decided to do some with some of the stuff posted in these communities, after USA Today contacted them. Google recently explained to analysts wondering why Orkut wasn't more popular outside of Brazil that: Brazilians are just very community-oriented....

    Where is the safest place in the world for Osama bin Laden to hide while continuing to direct the terrorist plots of al-Qaida? The United States. If you think that's an exaggeration, consider what Gen. Michael Hayden, the former director of the National Security Agency, told the House Intelligence Committee in April 2000. To illustrate the limitations imposed by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act — passed by Congress in 1978 — Hayden cited a Saudi terror leader whose name was then not widely known: "If ... Osama bin Laden is walking across the peace bridge from Niagara Falls, Ontario, to...
