| Cleaning Up Iraq and Capturing An Iranian-Linked Terrorist | | 2008-08-27 16:15:44 | | From the press releases of the coalition forces, we can see that there's never a dull moment in Iraq: 1. Coalition forces in Diyala killed three terrorists, two of whom were wearing suicide vests, and detained an alleged al-Qaeda in Iraq leader. The AQI suspect is allegedly responsible for bombing attacks and assassinations. 2. Soldiers found 100 blasting caps, 20 rocket-propelled grenades, two 120 mm mortar rounds, a 60 mm mortar round, two anti-tank rounds and 35 parachute grenades in a Baghdad...(read more) | | By: An American Warning | | |
| | Terrorism Financing Is Still Big Business Even If Terrorist Attacks Sometimes Are Carried Out on the Cheap | | 2008-08-27 08:31:12 | | There is a common misperception that terrorism can be carried out on the cheap and that small terrorist cells simply raise their funds locally making it extremely difficult to detect. This seems to be the thesis of a number of recent articles, including one a few days ago in the Washington Post . They maintain that terrorist groups simply avoid bank transactions, making current financial controls inutile. Nothing could be further from the truth! Terrorism financing is still big business, and the...(read more) | | By: An American Warning | | |

You can't. The TSC cannot reveal whether a particular person is in the TSDB. The TSDB remains an effective tool in the government’s counterterrorism efforts because its contents are not disclosed. If TSC revealed who was in the TSDB, terrorist organizations would be able to circumvent the purpose of the terrorist watchlist by determining in advance which of their members are likely to be questioned or detained.

The reason: Britain has threatened to impose a visa regime on visitors from South Africa amidst fears that the country is being used as a transit point by al-Qaeda operatives to gain easy entry to the UK. The Government is also concerned that the country is being used by people smugglers to bring non-South Africans into the UK. There it is: the criminal/terrorist network.

| | Keeping Tabs On Terrorist Communication | | 2008-07-03 22:57:49 | | The 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is an essential tool in the war against terrorists. The surveillance act (FISA) gives law enforcement and intelligence agents the power to gather crucial information on suspected terrorists overseas without the need for prior judicial approval. Agents are required to obtain a warrant when conducting electronic surveillance on people located within the U.S. to ensure compliance with privacy and due process rights guaranteed under the First and Fourth amendments to the U.S. Constitution.At the time FISA was enacted, telecommunications technology was radically different than it is today--no cellphones, laptops or Internet. Congress was slow to modify FISA to address these technological advancements, all of which were used with increased frequency by terrorists around the world.In an attempt to close this intelligence gap, Congress passed the Protect America Act of 2007. The act made clear that FISA's definition of "electronic surveillance" di | | By: Indonesia Type Approval/homologation/Compliance ce | | |

Since that time, things changed.

These public statements typically claim that the government has failed to win any terrorist financing case, and they generally arise after prosecutors failed to win particular trials, even where the results were not outright losses. Prosecutions in Dallas, Chicago and Tampa are the prime examples of this, even though the defendants in those cases...(read more) | | By: An American Warning | | |
| | Top Hezbollah Terrorist Leader Is Killed in Syria | | 2008-02-13 11:40:00 | | February 13, 2008BEIRUT, Lebanon — A top Hezbollah commander long sought by the United States for his role in terrorist attacks that killed hundreds of Americans in the 1980s, died Tuesday night in Damascus, Syria, when a bomb detonated under the vehicle he was in, Syrian officials said.No one claimed responsibility for killing the commander, Imad Mugniyah, who had been in hiding for many years and was one of the most wanted and elusive terrorists in the world.Mr. Mugniyah, 45, was suspected of planning the 1983 bombings of the American Embassy and a Marine barracks in Beirut; the hijacking of a T.W.A. jetliner in 1985; and a series of high-profile kidnappings in the 1980s, among other crimes. Israel accused him of helping to plan the 1992 bombing of its embassy in Buenos Aires, in which 29 people were killed, and the 1994 bombing of a Jewish center in the city, in which 85 people died.The embassy bombing in Beirut was a particularly sharp blow to the United States because a regional | | By: Stories & Straight Thoughts | | |

It was a fitting end for someone who planned and executed numerous deadly terrorist attacks , including the 1983 bombings of the U.S Embassy and Marine barracks in Beirut and the 1994 bombing of the Buenos Aires, Argentina Jewish center .

| | Now That's A Strange Terrorist Target: A Hannah Montana Concert | | 2008-01-25 05:09:00 | | Of all the targets a person plotting a terrorist attack could choose from, how in the heck did a Hannah Montana concert get the go ahead? Personally, I'm beyond tired of the "teen idols" fascination that permeates the news these days. But to hate it so much that you plan a suicide attack against a concert? That just takes the cake. It gives good rise to supporting a law to arrest people just for "felony stupidity." But anyways....So, here's the basics of what happened. A 16 year old boy flying on a Southwest Airlines flight, number 284 from Los Angeles to Louisiana had planned to commit suicide. His plan, to overpower the flight crew and crash the aircraft into a Hannah Montana concert. He was removed from the flight in Nashville and had in his possession handcuffs, duct tape and a form of rope, possibly yarn. Yarn? What was he planning? To subdue the flight crew by knitting them afghans? Please....The story can be found on both the CNN.com site and the National Terror Alert.com site. | | By: Hoopy Frood Dude | | |

This news comes days after four French tourists were shot dead in Islamic Maghreb, which features on the intended competition route.However, a Dakar Rally spokeman was keen to emphasis that this was not the end of the event: "The cancellation of the 2008 edition does not endanger the future of the Dakar.

| | News: Humanitarians Become Terrorist Target. | | 2007-12-27 04:54:00 | | This news article sums up the recent terrorist attacks against the UN:In 2007, Al-Qaeda and its affiliates have threatened or targeted U.N. officials and peacekeepers in conflict zones in Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia, Sudan and southern Lebanon, where six U.N. peacekeepers were killed in a bombing in June. Even before the Algiers attack, the United Nations was already investing millions of dollars in fortifying its facilities and convoys in response to threats in Afghanistan and Iraq.But the Algiers attack -- the deadliest for the United Nations since insurgents bombed its Baghdad headquarters in August 2003 -- provided a blunt reminder of how vulnerable the international organization is. (...)Since the bombing of the UN headquarters in Baghdad, I have always believed that we, international humanitarian organisations, will become the soft targets. As the "hard targets", e.g. the UK and US foreign missions, isolate themselves, lock themselves up behind walls of concrete, we -humanitarians- can not. While often the streets of US embassies are barricaded, our work is on those streets, in the field, working with the people.We -humanitarians- are working in the most remote places, often as the only expats around. How easy does that make us as a target? Any malicious group who wants international press, only needs to kidnap or kill one of us, and they get plenty of international press... And that was only talking about terrorism. How about just plain crime and banditry?To give you an idea, WFP (UN World Food Programme) had 36 people killed, injured or detained this year only... That is a sharp raise from the previous years.We're in for a rough ride... How much do we protect ourselves? With what financial implication? For example, a typical field 4x4 vehicle costs about US$25,000. But working in a high risk area will easily add US$15,000 in ballistic blankets and HF/VHF radios for security measures.How much risk is acceptable, to the organisations, and to the staff themsel | | By: The Road to the Horizon | | |

Who is the enemy and what is the threat they pose? In the post 9/11 world, this is an increasingly vexing question. With that context in mind, the enemy can be characterized in two broad categories, criminals and terrorists. Criminals are motivated by greed, in the form of profit and/or power, and represent a threat to the economy. Terrorists are motivated...(read more) | | By: An American Warning | | |
| | Jihad Web Talk: Paltalk.com Hosts Terrorist Chat Rooms | | 2007-12-12 15:56:00 | | A couple months back, I tapped out a couple articles about American Web companies hosting some pretty horrendous pages by extremists.

Later it was shown that SiteGenie LLC of Rochester, Minnesota was also hosting some of these types of pages.You can read my past articles about these incidents HERE, and HERE.None of this made any form of National headline media, nor is that really a surprise.

| | What drives an Islamic terrorist? | | 2007-10-15 16:58:00 | | Given the extreme amount of attention to and the large sums of our tax money which have been spent on Islamic terrorism, the question seems pertinent to us everyday citizens, "What drives an Islamic terrorist? What are the reasons why anyone would engage in that type of behavior?"Typically whenever the subject of religion is brought up we are told most often that all religions are equal or simply not true as in the case of atheism. Yet I did some checking and found that the core theologies (a term first used by Plato in The Republic) of many world religions are often in direct opposition to each other. A very simple contrast would be the assertion by Islam that people are born pure while the Christian assertion is that they are born into sin. And for you atheists, I also discovered that modern science has not ruled out the possibility of a Creator God and some very good scientists hold to non-atheistic models such as theistic evolution and progressive creationism and that this trend is | | By: The Paleo Conservatist | | |

| | Terrorist Tycoon | | 2007-09-28 17:17:16 | | Terrorist Tycoon from Clandestine Action Games is the latest addition to the huge and growing array of tycoon games on the market. According to Clandestine Action Games:
With Terrorist Tycoon, you design, build, and manage your ultimate terrorist organization. You're in control of everything from politics to combat, always keeping your terrorist army content with your leadership and discontent with your enemy.Spread propaganda through Al Jazeera or Fox News to gain the support of
your patriotic terrorists, and use lies and religion to mislead the world opinion to
support your invasion of a country rich with resources using any excuse necessary.Create trade embargos to "prevent the enemy from using medicine for explosives," or build an economy based on opium to survive. Set up import trade routes
for enriched uranium and weapons, but remember to hide your financial
transactions so that no-one discovers that your chief arms customer might
be your enemy.
Train your combat units in hidden desert camps, experience exciting challenges as your opponents intercept your plans or capture your important leaders, and regroup as former allies become your sworn enemies.Destroy historical buildings such as the Twin Towers of the former World Trade Center to strike fear in your enemy, or torture your political opponents in the Abu Ghraib prison. Immerse yourself in stunning 3-D effects as bodies are thrown to the ground by a
suicide bomber, and watch wounded children drag themselves to safety as your
coalition of the willing bombs their homes in your organization's
"defense" against its "enemies."Become the most powerful nation on Earth through your skilled leadership and the support of your God, and make you the one that can call your opponents the terrorists: Bring them on! | | By: What's This? | | |
| | Lashing burst of marching into the den of the Tiger terrorist | | 2007-09-17 07:37:36 | | In Mahavansa, it is written that in 1153 A.D., king Parakramabahu sent a flotilla of navy to Burma (Ramanna desha) and defeated the king of Ramanna. The reason for that invasion was that then king has verbally abused and assaulted the envoy of the king Parakramabahu. That attack was not to overrun and rule a foreign territory, but to defend the sovereignty of our own territory. This written history shows the power and dignity of Sinhala kings.On 10th September 2007, it was reported that Sri Lankan navy has destroyed three ships containing armory for Tiger terrorists in the international waters, south-east of the island, more than 1200 km away.It was four ships namely ‘Sayura’, ‘Samudura’, ‘Suranimala, and ‘Shakthi’ under the leadership of Commander Mohotti and Riar Admiral Jayanath Kolabage involved in this historical battle after more than 800 years that King Parakramabahu succeeded a similar attack but for different reason.This time the attack was not to defeat another kingdom, but for self defense and free our own country from the curse of terrorism.There was a time when feeble clowns and witches ruling this country in tandems. As a result, terrorists managed to target even our strategic harbors like Trincomalee at will, while these feeble clowns were only at the mercy of foreign mediators to prevent possible attacks.It all changed in 2005, when people of Sri Lanka decided to select Mahinda Rajapaksa as the president. After a long time, people got a chance to select a true leader, and the voters took the correct use of the opportunity.Since then, things started to change. It all started slowly first, but now the real positive outcomes are evident. When the leader is weak, he knows only to survive and defend, and that is why enemies love feeble characters that they can exploit.It is touch of genuine leadership and clear direction that did the trick. It’s the same soldiers and commanders that were under the influence of negative political leadership, are now marching into virtually any place where the enemy stays and destroying it.When the battle is taken back to the den of the enemy, half the battle is already won. It’s just a matter of time to complete the victory. | | By: Lanka Rising | | |
| | Beijing 2008 Olympics - The biggest terrorist target for 2008 | | 2007-09-12 13:36:27 | | For some of the world's worst terrorist groups, Beijing China in 2008 might as well have a bullseye sign on it. If some people might remember correctly, investigations reveal that terrorist cells often prepare years ahead of the actual event. They can operate with such independence that cells do not even communicate with any known high-profile terrorist groups.Why is Beijing such a juicy target for terrorists? Primarily because China is an outsider in terms of global anti-terrorism campaigns. Without any formal military or intelligence sharing with major countries fighting terrorism like the U.S. or the U.K., China may seem like a sitting duck against disaster. For years now, the terrorist have kept silent with no major events since the World Trade Center attack.
