Moscow city authorities are planning on suing the power company for the power outage this past week. This is the same power outage which Chechen terrorist leader Ishmail Basayev took credit for causing. Either Basayev is trying to take credit for things he had no part in, which would not come as a complete shock, or the power company has terrorism insurance.
Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf says an attack on Iran would spark a rebellion in the Muslim world, but not a rebellion towards Democracy. Agreed, but what Musharraf said concerning Iran’s nuclear ambitions should be highlighted.
Asked by the weekly how to prevent Iran from developing a military nuclear program, Musharraf said: “I do not know. They are very anxious to have the bomb.”
As the Europe Three continue to want to have their talks with the goal of Iran enriching uranium for energy at the most, Iran has repeatedly said they will disregard talks and continue to enrich unranium. There is simply not a peaceful solution to whether or not Iran has a nuclear weapon of some sort short of a massive uprising of Iranians. Don’t count on it anytime soon.
Two bombs went off in a busy market in a predominantly Christian neighborhood of Indonesia. Thus far no group has claimed responsibility, though history has told us to not look much further than Jeemah Islamiya.
A research group affiliated with Harvard University has filed a report indicating terrorists are trying to get their hands on nuclear material from Russian storage facilities and nuclear reactors. Furthermore the report indicates such facilities are not secure enough to withstand a direct assault by terrorists thus the material is able to be taken from the facilities.
Operation New Market continues with an estimated 14 terrorists killed and another 30 captured. Almost on cue Al Qaida in Iraq applauds the efforts of jihadists in Haditha for “fighting the battles of honor and victory with the converters and their masters, the crusaders.â€
The parents of a 15 year-old boy who was sent by Palestinian terrorists to attack an IDF checkpoint have called those who sent their son criminals.
The IDF and the family have accused Fatah’s armed wing, the Aksa Martyrs Brigades, of dispatching the boy on a suicide mission. However, Mohammed Subuh, a senior official with the Palestinian Authority’s Information Minister, claimed that Israel was behind the incident, staging the near-attack in attempt to undermine PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas’s talks with US President George W. Bush.
No big shock there for a Palestinian administration official to try to skirt the blame to Israel. That just about sums up the entire mindset in the Middle East.
The bodies of ten Shiites have been found near the Iraqi town of Al Qaim and appear to have been blindfolded, tortured and executed by gun shots to their heads. It is believed these Shiites were on their way back from visiting a religious shrine in Syria. Zarqawi calls Shiites Infidels and “tools of the crusaders,” therefore it’s likely Al Qaida in Iraq had a hand in this attrocity.
