Cops foil Brown 'bomb plot' FOURTEEN suspected al-Qaeda terrorists were detained in Brussels today before Gordon Brown was due to meet EU leaders. One of the suspects is believed to be a suicide bomber mounting an operation "from which he was not expected to come back". He added one suspect...

So even if they didn't manage to get the word out before the election, the latest Al Qaida finally arrived: vOJunJ3MKdU

No, I didn't make that up - even if he have to wait for OBL's official endorsement :

In April 2002, a video surfaced that showed Ahmed al-Haznawi giving his last will and testament. The video, entitled "The Wills of the New York and Washington Battle Martyrs," was delivered to Al Jazeera's main office in Qatar. In the video, Haznawi is seen reciting a his last will and...

The new book from Reza Aslan isn't out yet (I think) but these excerpts seem pretty interesting. http://www.rezaaslan.com/cosmicwar.html The link to the video doesn't work so here are the YT links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0nwfw5pZc8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxQbPbPD8Rc...

Quote from The Gulf Daily News, Saturday, 17th May 2008 in reference to Osama Bin Laden's latest audio tape: "The Al Qaeda leader, who has placed growing emphasis on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, said it was at the heart of the Muslim battle with the West and an inspiration to the 19...

Looks like involvement in the Middle East may be the reason [again] for another 9/11. But thanks to the Neocons, at least Iraq may not be a safe haven for Al Qaida for hundred years. And who is Osama and the rising Taliban anyway? :confused: : 4PGmnz5Ow-o If someone actually stumbles over the...

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080422/ap_on_re_mi_ea/al_qaida_al_zawahri How about them apples?

The actual report (pdf) is titled: I just can't understand it. We did get attacked by Al Qaeda on September 11, 2001, yes? And a few other times as well, right? And they've attacked a few more countries as well. And they were almost gone a year after the September 11th attack. And now...

US charges embassy bomb suspect The DOD release can be found here: The actual DOD charge sheet does not seem to have been posted on the DefenseLink site. Apparently, one of this moron's aliases is "Foopie." Yikes.

CIA: We Got Bin Laden Translator Defense officials have claimed off-the-record that Rahim was captured by a joint US-Pakistani intelligence operation in Pakistan. This was most likely the arrest of two "high value" al Qaeda members by Pakistan in Lahore announced in the summer of 2007. In...

Link. "Indiscriminately murdering civilians" is bad PR. Who knew?

I keep running into referrences to Osama bin laden as a CIA asset called by the code name Tim Osman or some such. I am trying to find the first reerrence to this story, to track its source. I have recently come across the article from which I think most people seem to draw the idea that al...

http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/02/27/mccain.obama.iraq/index.html During the Democratic debate, Obama said: "I always reserve the right for the president ... to make sure that we are looking out for American interests. And if al Qaeda is forming a base in Iraq, then we will have to act in...

Since torture is not a reliable way of getting accurate information because the subject is likely to say anything to make the torture stop, can we trust the interrogations the Commission based its findings on planning and execution? 9/11 Commission controversy Posted on Wednesday, January 30...

Here's a theory I hadn't come across before - the Al Qaida network may have been inspired by Isaac Asimov's Foundation novels, the first of which was allegedly translated into arabic under the title 'Al Qaida'. LA City Beat - I Bin Laden More in-depth article from The Guardian Book Review No...

Al Qaeda's No. 2 takes questions via the Internet Apparantly Ayman al-Zawahri, Osama bin Laden's deputy, has been accepting questions from the public via the Internet. Among the questions submitted:

I don't want to make too much of this, but I think it's worth noting: Bin Laden's son calls for peace It's somewhat encouraging that Osama bin Laden's own son, who was training in al Qaeda's camps at age 14, is now calling for his father to change his ways. I don't imagine that it will make a...

Reuters has just confirmed.

Our friends, the Saudis, continue to wage the good fight against terrorists: That's a really good program they have there. An average of 1.5 meetings per terrorist gets a 47% success rate in getting them to renounce terrorism. On the Arabian Peninsula, at least. No word on whether or not...

In a Nov. 25, 2007 article in The Times Online, Chris Gourlay and Jonathan Calvert report revelations made to them by Louai al-Sakka, a prisoner in Kandira, a high-security F-type prison 60 miles east of Istanbul, Turkey, of his role in certain terrorist activities around the world, including...

I have no problems convicting OBL or al Qaeda of the crimes of 9/11, however, I will first need a motive. The only thing I remember anyone saying was, "They hate us for our freedom." Is this the official motive? Is this mentioned in any report? If not, were any other motives mentioned in the...

I have yet to find these CTs online yet, but I've heard around the office that people have heard these various CTs: Arson: Several people have been arrested recently setting new fires. Including some guy on a Harley Davidson followed by a helicopter, and reported to police. (Sounds like too...

Just wanted some help, I am after specific information from Al Qaeda regarding the fundamental intentions of the 9/11 attacks and in particular the reason for selecting each individual target. I know what the answer to both of these is, of course, however I'm wondering if there's any...

I've noticed in the news that some people pronounce Al Qaeda as "Al Ki-da" while some say "Al Kay-da" and others says "Al Kay-ee-Da". Is there some subtle dissing being done here? It just seems like "Al Kay-da" is used mostly by the Right. I don't have any proof of that, it's just an...

Just saw this article, about a new assessment of Al Qaida capabilities. "Al-Qaida better positioned to strike the West" http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/wire/ats-ap_top10jul11,0,7788770.story?coll=la-ap-topnews-headlines or http://tinyurl.com/yqaxlw

I suspect it quite a while that Al Qaidas strategies included the invasion of Iraq as a possible reaction for 9/11. Maybe because Iraq was a pain in the ass for America and Israel anyway, maybe to get rid of Saddam who didn't support their Ideologies, maybe because gaining support from Muslims...

Apparantly the UK's annoyed Al-Qaeda by knighting Rushdie: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/6289110.stm Oh no what will they do that they weren't wishing to do previously!!!! The horror, the terror, the fear etc.....:rolleyes:
