Muslim Crusaders Enter Syria From Europe to Fight

Nadene Goldfoot                                                                       

            Al Qaeda terrorist from Turkey killed by Assad's forces, Burak Karan

The Syrian Civil War is being invaded by Europeans who are joining the fight.  Muslims have moved into Europe, something they refer to as The Big Immigration.  When they do this they are active proselytizers so many Europeans have converted to Islam which is their goal.  Now, German Islamists are fighting against Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad by joining up with the rebels.  These new recruits have become more religiously radicalized since the civil war began in 2011.

In September it was estimated that there were 170 German fighters in Syria already.  50 had traveled there just recently.  Burak Karan, a German football (soccer) star who ended his career at age 20 to go to Syria and fight for al Qaeda,  was killed by Assad's army.  He wanted to be a jihadist.  He was from Turkey originally.  His coach said he could have lived safely in Germany as a soccer player.  He was 25 years old.

200 of them are now in the "German Camp" or on their way to Syria.  They are taking an old route from Germany to Istanbul and then through to the Syrian border.  Der Spiegel news magazine wrote all about it.  The Welt newspaper wrote that so many Islamists are heading to Syria from Europe that the German security services are concerned about the number.  They are afraid that they'll return to Germany even more radicalized after receiving terror training from Al Qaeda and other groups in Syria such as Hezbollah.

Teenagers as young as 15 are leaving Germany and Norway to fight against Bashar Assad in Syria.  Over 100  left Germany just this year.  They all adhere to jihadi ideology.  One child with Free Syrian Army was only 14 years old.  The Muslim Brotherhood is very radical and the Salafists are even more so.  "The Salafist community has also lured adolescents to radicalize them.”It appears that both immigrant Muslims and converted Muslims are becoming jihadists and want to be in the fighting.  

 57 radical Austrian Islamists are currently in Syria engaged in combat against Assad’s regime.  The Austrian intelligence agency stated that roughly half of the Islamists from Austria in Syria have a Chechen origin.

500 is the estimate by Gilles de KerchoveBelgium senior European Union official,  Director of Justice and Home Affairs (HJA) in the Council Secretariat of the European Union from 1995 – 2007.    He has since been appointed as EU Counter-terrorism Coordinator, succeeding Gijs de Vries.   The largest numbers come from the UK, Ireland and France.  "In the Netherlands, officials have raised the terror threat level there to "substantial" - partly over concerns about radicalised citizens returning from Syria.   It happens that they have large numbers of Muslims.  All share the fear of what may be returning;   fanatical terrorists all trained to kill.  

Several thousand Europeans and Americans can be the total now fighting against Assad.  Most are joining the al-Nusra Front, al Qaeda’s main terrorist group in Syria, along with smaller Islamist militias made up of nationals from more than a dozen foreign countries.  "Nicole Mansfield, a single mother from Flint, Michigan,  was killed traveling with al Qaeda fighters in Syria last May."

USA intelligence estimates that there are now 6,000 foreign fighters in Syria.  "Most of the foreign fighters are from Middle Eastern, North African, and Central Asian states, including Libya, Egypt, Jordon, Kuwait, Lebanon, Morocco, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Algeria, and United Arab Emirates. They obviously will team up with those that came from Europe.  

There is so much zeal to kill that al Qaeda accidentally beheaded the wrong guy, another rebel terrorist.  It happened to be one of their allies.  They had already put the head out on public display, such as people did 2,000 years ago.Then they found out what they had done and apologized.  
  
Just recently the rebels hit a Christian church in Syria.  A school was next to it and the playground was hit, killing about 5 children.  Anyone seen become targets.  In Damascus there are Christians living next door to Muslims and have been getting along well.  Most rebels all belong to some terror group that is being funded.  Of course now we have a more western? group being armed by the United States.  People that really do no want to be part of all this craziness have fled and are refugees with many not even registered as such.  They had to flee on tourist visas quickly.  Homes, offices holding birth certificates, schools, churches have been flattened amid a ground-shaking deafening scream of landing missiles.  Some of the places hit have been very ancient, worthy of having many historic artifacts, now all destroyed.  The rebels don't care and don't even know the value of what they are destroying.

Yom Kippur War of 1973 Remembered with an Intifada of Rioting, Killing in Israel and Egypt

Nadene Goldfoot                                                                

Yesterday was a celebration with violence of the anniversary of the Yom Kippur War of October 6, 1973 when Egypt and Syria attacked Israel with their other neighbors always so eager to get their licks in,  which for Egypt is a national day of celebration as they think they won that war. The Arab states were grumbling and plotting ever since Israel was the winner in their vile mass attack against her in 1967, so by 1971 and 1972 Egypt demanded weapons from the Soviet Union being the USA supported Israel with weapons.  Russia refused them, not wanting to extend its military involvement in Egypt. Sadat was so angry that he expelled most of the Soviet military personnel from Egypt in return.  At the end of 1972 the option of war appeared more remote than ever.  Negotiations were one option, but evidently Golda Meier was finished with them.

Incidentally, Egypt had the upper hand until October 14th when the tide turned and Israel crossed the Suez Canal and cut off the Egyptian 3rd Army.  Only Kissinger stopped Israel from taking Cairo with his cease fire.  Israel was heated up after the sneak attack from their neighbors on the highest of holy days when all Jews were in a synagogue praying.  They then signed a peace treaty with Israel in 1979.  This was brought about because Israel gave back the Sinai it had won in the 1967 attack of all the Arab nations upon the wee state.  This has brought on a lot of rioting in Israel and evidently the same thing is going on in Egypt.

Along with the threatened 3rd intifada in Gaza starting up by radical Muslim groups of Hamas  and Fatah and others in Israel, Egypt has its hands full of the Muslim Brotherhood continuing to demonstrate and be against the takeover of the military secularists of Egypt.  The Muslim Brotherhood Charter is the same as the Hamas Charter and they are against the creation of Israel and are all out to kill Jews and take Israel for themselves.  Egypt had been enjoying peace with Israel with Sadat at the helm.  They even had Israeli tourists visit who were so excited to see this exotic country that held so much of their history as well.  Jews were finally allowed to visit with peace being in place.

Today, militants (Muslim Brotherhood members) killed 6 Egyptian soldiers near the Suez Canal and hit the state satellite station in Cairo with rocket-propelled grenades.  This is demonstrating an Islamist insurgency that is in step with an intifada.

Many members of the Muslim Brotherhood died in clashes with security forces and opponents yesterday.  It turned out to be one of the bloodiest days since July when the Muslim Brotherhood head, President Morsi,  was deposed.  53 people were reported killed in the clashes and 271 were wounded.  Of course the Brotherhood is denying all involvement in the rioting.  His supporters are calling for protests for tomorrow and Friday.  Egypt's army chief said he told Morsi back in February that he had failed as a president.  Pro-Morsi rallies were some of the largest since he had been ousted 3 months ago.

Egypt's military has been forced to take a tough stand with the Muslim Brotherhood who has not been compliant about acting peacefully.  They didn't like losing.  They were told they would be treated as agents of foreign powers if they partook in riots right now.  In return, the Brotherhood accused the army of the coup and eliminate them through violence, allegations  and arrests.  There have been rioting in the Sinai on security forces and in the suburb of Cairo called Maadi.  Car bombs are also used.

Soldiers were fired upon Ismailia while sitting in their car near Canal.  In the heart of Cairo were clashes.
Militants are following al-Qaeda in the Sinai and have killed over 100 security force members since July.  Hundreds of the Brotherhood were killed on August 14th when security forces broke into their camps in Cairo.  As General Sissi said, they reacted to the will of the people after his first year who were quickly fed up with the Brotherhood and their false promises.  They had always been outlawed anyway in Egypt.

Who Are the Syrian Rebels That Obama Is Arming?

Nadene Goldfoot                                                                 

                                       Rebel in Homs, Syria

Out of about 100,000 rebels fighting in Syria's 22,505,000 populated country which had about 296,000 active military troops at their disposal, 10,000 are jihadists.  This includes foreign fighters that are linked directly to terrorist organizations like al Qaeda.  Add to that another 30,000 to 35,000 hardline Islamists who share the same philosophy as al Qaeda, but are focused on war in Syria.  The aim of many jihadists is to create a worldwide Islamic Caliphate.  Another 30,000 in the mix that also share their brother's Islamic character are more moderate than the rest .  The downside of this is that strictly nationalist groups wanting a piece of the Arab Spring, meaning a more democratic state, are a small minority of the rebels.  Secular groups are not in any leadership capacity.

"While many non-Muslims are now aware that there is a sectarian divide in Islam between Sunnis and Shiites, it is less commonly known that Syria is ruled largely by members of an esoteric Islamic sect, the Alawites, whose belief in the divinity of Ali, Muhammad’s cousin and son-in-law, is just one of the reasons that they were oppressed as infidels for centuries by other Muslims."  Syria has Lebanon and Iraq as neighbors who have gone through civil war.  Assad has warned that if he loses power, the country would be in a civil war.  That's quite ironic being he is now the cause of it in trying to hold on.  

Al Qaeda is the prevalent group.  It is a "global militant Islamist organization founded by Osama bin Laden in Peshawar, Pakistan, at some point between August 1988 and late 1989, with its origins being traceable to the Soviet War in Afghanistan. It operates as a network comprising both a multinational, stateless army and a radical Sunni Muslim movement calling for global Jihad and a strict interpretation of sharia law."

So, ignoring these facts, our president of the USA, Obama, has waived two laws that were designed to prevent arming terrorists and our government has already started doing just this before his signing was even completed, meaning that Congress doesn't even get their 15 day warning about it.  We have already sent over weapons, vehicles, advanced communications equipment and advanced medical kits.  

McCain, our warrior, is all for it, probably thinking this is being most humanitarian.  His strategy is to provide "meaningful lethal assistance to moderate opposition forces."  Al Qaeda was lead by Osama bin Lauden who engineered the 9/11 attacks that downed the Twin Towers 12 years ago.  They are far from being moderate. 

Last month it was al Qaeda who launched 4 rockets from Lebanon into Israel on the trumped up charges that Israel was plotting with Hezbollah to fight against the Syrian rebels.  What a cock-a may-mee story this one is, and believe me, they will all believe it.   The Abdullah Azzam Brigade is not an honorable group.  They are the al Qaeda members who are spreading this propaganda.  

Hezbollah is a big  Shi'a terrorist group out of Lebanon.  They are also political, so there is competition here between Hezbollah and al Qaeda in who has the power, similar to Hamas and Fatah in Gaza and Judea/Samaria.  Hezbollah has a big hatred for Jews.  ""The anti-Semitism of Hezbollah leaders and spokesmen combines the image of seemingly invincible Jewish power ... and cunning with the contempt normally reserved for weak and cowardly enemies."

Our Arab Israelis have been joining the Syrian rebels lately. " There is a possibility that Arab Israelis who are being trained in Syria may use their knowledge against Israel – both by spreading ideologies and by using intel and military capabilities they've learned there."   These men are not forced into Israel's IDF and usually don't opt to join.  Actually, this hurts their opportunities to get better jobs, as an IDF service on one's resume is highly desirable.  Arab Israeli women have been reported to feel more nationalistic about Israel and have been joining up in the IDF.  

Lost in this morass of fighters is the honest nationalistic Syrian who wants to live a democratic life.  He is surrounded by other fighters who want something quite different.  Assad was a tyrant without a heart, but was able as an Alawite to keep control with his whip.  He was detestable to the Jewish community of Aleppo and Damascus and drove them all out, the last leaving in 1994 with Israel's help.  

Barack Hussein Obama II, our American president, is daring to take a very large step in overlooking the necessary steps in this recent enterprise of aiding and abetting the rebels.  The rebels are not all of one mind.  It's almost impossible for the USA to vet them.  He has waived the prohibitions set up to arm these rebels.  At the rate they are warring each other like Syria is warring against its own people, it won't take long for the arms to get into the hands that are the strongest, and that will be the large terrorist groups of al Qaeda and Hezbollah, who probably do a little recruiting on the side.    

Last year Israel announced that they knew of 200,000 missiles pointed in their direction.  Though they are ready for them,  Israel realizes that there are "growing threats Israel was facing: "a more hostile, more Islamic, more sensitive Middle East, one more attune to public sentiment, less controlled by the regimes, and less susceptible to international influence."  I guess we can thank the Arab Spring for a lot of this turmoil.  With a supreme take -over- all- the- land -attitude and force everyone to convert, Democracy just doesn't stand a chance.  The Muslim Brotherhood,  who is all for sharia law,  seems to work against any democratic values.  

The Brotherhood calls for jihad against “the Muslim’s real enemies, not only Israel but also the United States. Waging jihad against both of these infidels is a commandment of Allah that cannot be disregarded.” Muslim Brotherhood Supreme Guide Muhammed Badi, Sept. 2010.

John Brennan and Al Qaeda Regarding Israel

Nadene Goldfoot                                                                  
Osama Bin Laden-former leader of Al-Qaeda

What's happening to fight terrorism is causing questions about our government and how they believe in protecting our country.  My eyebrows are arching when I read that "it isn't unusual for our military and intelligence officials to visit Saudi Arabia and then leave it repeating the classic Saudi talking points about Islam." Our important officials and other American citizens are also spending more time in Qatar.  The same thing can be happening there as well.  Both places are small but wealthy Sunni countries with more than average influence on our government.  For instance, Qaradawi, a most important  religious Sunni leader,  lives in Qatar and has a death wish for all Jews and Israel.

1. Islam is a stable influence on the region.
2. Israel is a destabilizing influence.
                                                                                     
Muslims of Israel have rights 
My thought on this is that Israel is showing the other Muslims a democratic society and that the 1.4 million Arabs living in Israel are most likely better off than the ones in their country being it's the only democratic country in the region.  They even serve in the Knesset and have their own political parties.   But are our USA  government workers becoming brainwashed?  Are they swallowing this tripe of negativism towards Israel?
                                                                         
Take John Brennan, for instance.  He has developed links with the Muslim Brotherhood who I think is the cause of Egypt's downfall in the Arab Spring.  They had been outlawed by Sadat,  and now look at the trouble they've caused the whole neighborhood. They also have the charter with the top goals of destroying Israel.  I don't take this lightly.  Brennan has brought known leaders of Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood into the government in advisory positions.  Hamas's charter is the same as the Brotherhood in that they also have as goal #1 to destroy Israel. Hamas and Fatah are at each other's throats constantly in fighting over power and leadership.  Hamas has been a terrible influence over Fatah in causing them to be terrorists.   These Muslims are advising our government on counter-terrorism strategy  in the War on Terror program.  Is that all?  To John, this War on Terror means only Al Qaeda.

There is even reliable evidence that Brennan has converted to Islam. Snopes says NO.    Would a man do that just to have an in with Muslims to gain information?  Is this expected in the CIA?  Or, if true, is it from the heart?  Does he now believe the hard line of wanting to get rid of Israel?  It used to be that Islam thought of Judaism in better terms than Christianity did but the tables have turned.  Muslim Reactionaries  are only concerned with fighting Israel.  They don't need a pat on the back for doing so which their religious leaders dole out. .  They need to see condemnation for doing so in order to become civil-minded. I  don't care what religion Brennan is, except I want to know where he stands concerning Israel, as what he would be in charge of concerns Israel's very life.  If he's been leading such a double life it's going to be hard to trust what he says, anyway.

Osama bin Laden's Al Qaeda started up from reacting to the Soviet War in Afghanistan in August of 1988.  The group is Sunni Muslim and believe in global jihad and the strict Sharia Law.  They deal in suicide attacks and bombings.  This is the group responsible for our 9/11 attack on the Twin Towers, killing 3,000.  They also had done the 1998 US Embassy bombings and the 2002 Bali bombings.  They are listed as terrorists by everybody.   There have been allegations that the CIA had helped al Qaeda in their fight against the Russians.  Now these terrorists are  fighting us.

"Also, al-Qaeda is possibly using aircraft to transport drugs and weapons from South America to various unstable countries in West Africa. A Boeing 727 can carry up to 10 tons of cargo. The drugs eventually are smuggled to Europe for distribution and sale, and the weapons are used in conflicts in Africa and possibly elsewhere. Gunmen with links to al-Qaeda have been increasingly kidnapping some Europeans for ransom. The profits from the drug and weapon sales, and kidnappings can, in turn, fund more militant activities."

Osama bin Laden is Dead, But Al Qaeda Attacks Israel

Nadene Goldfoot
Al Qaeda, the terrorist group of Osama bin Laden, is alive and well, flourishing in Syria and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula.  Born from its parent, the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda is percolating right along, and was the group that attacked the Israeli fence builders along the Sinai border with Egypt.  "The MB is a movement, not a political party," they say, "but members have created political parties in several countries, such as the Islamic Action Front in Jordan and Hamas in Gaza and the West Bank and the newly created Freedom and Justice Party in Egypt, headed by Morsi.".  These are arms of the MB that take on the responsibility of carrying out their goals with jihad.  For instance Hamas may be a political party, but they are also terrorists attacking Israel constantly.   

It was the 19 terrorists who hijacked 4 planes on 9/11 that were Al Qaeda members, and we found out in 2004 about Osama bin Laden being the leader of the attack.

Many of  Al Qaeda  terrorists seen attacking  Israel this month are from Libya.  In fact, Hamas tried to get them to stop, and they immediately fired 5 Grad missiles towards Ashkelon instead.  Luckily, Israel's Iron Dome stopped them.

Al Qaeda is found in Egypt, Libya and Syria.  Ayman al Zawahiri, b: 1951 in Egypt and a physician  is the present leader.  He took over from bin Laden on May 2, 2011. "On the same day, al-Qaeda renewed its position that Israel was an illegitimate state and that it wouldn't accept any compromise on Palestine"  An uprise of terrorism has been going on since the first of June.  It's so bad that Cairo's military has sent out their 999 Unit to try to counter the jihadis.  They've been active along the northern border with Syria as well.  It appears to me that Al Qaeda could be a force  fighting against the Egyptian militia causing some sort of civil war as they are extreme Islamists.  


We see that the Muslim Brotherhood has spawned not only Hamas but Al Qaeda as well, both terrorist organization, all bent on attacking Israel, the only non-Muslim state in its way.  Too bad that the MB is not broad-minded in their philosophy and cannot tolerate either Jews or Christians around.  It's hard to understand such a viewpoint except to see it as extremely dangerous, ego-centered and ready to stamp out everything  in its way through subterfuge and violence.

United Nations: Highjacked from October 24, 1945 Aims

Nadene Goldfoot
 The UN was born  on October 24, 1945 after the 2nd World War.  It had very lofty goals of keeping the whole world in peace.  I thought I was immensely lucky at the age of 11 after knowing about the devestation of a war.  I thought, "no more wars, ever. Everywhere there will be peace."

Then along came 2001.  The UN sponsored a World Conference Against Racism from August 31st until September 8th in Durban, South Africa.  South Africa was the home of racism being a majority country of Blacks with a white minority who were in power.  Apartheid had been practiced there.  The presiding Secretary General at the conference was the former Irish President, Mary Robinson. 

"Entitled "World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance," the conference was discussing unfair treatment of one group against another. Significant time was focused specifically on Israeli treatment of Palestinians, treating violations of human rights and genocide in other parts of the world secondarily."

The meeting attacked only Israel.  There were anti-Israel demonstrationas at another conference at the same time.  Canada, the United States and Israel walked out in the middle of the conference when it singled out Israel and said that Zionism was racism.  It was Arab states that criticized Israel for their "racist" practices.  Nobody raised the question of why Jews were not allowed in any Arab state at the time. 

The Arab states demanded that the European Union criticize Israel for their "racist practices," but they refused.  The UN had been highjacked by the Arab states at this point.  Three days after the conference was over, New York was hit with 9/11.  Al Qaeda  terrorists, led by Osama bin Laden who had later admitted responsibility, had highjacked 4 passenger jets. 

Two of the jets crashed into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center killing about 3,000 people within two hours.  The third plane crashed into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia killing 184 people.  The fourth plane flew toward Washington D.C with intent to crash into either the Capitol building or the White House but failed when the passengers managed bravely to foil their attempts and they crashed in Pennsylvania, killing all aboard. 

The climate of 2001 became that of Arabs and Arab terrorists acting out against the Western culture.  To them, Israel was an invasion in their territory of Western culture, something they had fought against long ago during the Crusader years and long afterwards in their attempt to take over Europe.  I feel they were frightened of any connection with the West as it would give the wrong ideas to their people.  They had a nice system going of complete control of their people and wanted it to remain so.  There was no democratic rule in Arab societies, only Kings and such.  Saudi Arabia, where the al Qaeda terrorists came from, is an absolute monarchy and Islamic state of Sunni Muslims.  2001 was the year that the Gazan terrorists of Hamas started shelling Israel with Qassam rockets, mortars and any missiles they could get.  Israel was held back from retaliating. 

Durban II was a repeat of Durban I. Durban III will be another repeated bashing of Israel, and Canada led again in refusing to attend. The US has refused as well to attend on September 21st. The conference is centering on it being the 10th anniversary of that fateful I and will be celebrating. 

It should be known that the U.N.'s biggest contributors is the United States.  The U.N. building is in New York City.  The United States pays 22% of their budget and also 25% of the peace keeping in the world.  I note that there was no peacekeeping going on between the Gaza terrorists and Israel from 2001 to 2009.  For eight years Israel took shelling from Gaza with warnings from the world not to retaliate. 

If and when the Arabs go to the UN on September 22 to attempt to claim a state of Palestine, a Lebanese chairman will be presiding.  Lebanon is under the control of Syria and Syria is under the  control of Iran.  The Arabs have more than a foot in the door to start with.  They are already listed as "Permanent Observer Mission of Palestine to the United Nations." 

For me, the UN has been altered from the UN I relied on as a child.  They no longer are against one group attacking another but in many ways are the cause of it happening.

Al Qaeda-Osama bin Laden's Empire At Odds With World: Top Threat to USA

Nadene Goldfoot
Though Obama gave the order to take down Osama bin Laden in May of this year, his jihadists' empire of Al Qaeda (The Base) still exists and threatens the world with the possibility of having atomic weapons.  This is because it is a "global militant Sunni Islamist group" that he founded around August 1988 and late 1989 and is organized into a network of Muslims created into a multinational and stateless army.  This radical movement calls for global Jihad, and bin Laden's death will not stop them, only possibly halt them for a short period.  It is also known as "International Islamic Front for Jihad Against the Crusaders and the Jews." So we really have not only Iran to worry about but this  group as well. 

Al Qaeda has attacked their targets in many countries.  They were responsible for the 1998 US embassy bombings, 9/11/01 on  New York's Twin Towers, 2002 Bali bombings.  We responded with the War on Terror started with Bush and continued with Obama.  Our Secretery of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld had declared that  9/11 was an act of war.  The USA has gone into Afghanistan to destroy their bases and overthrow the Taliban who had sheltered Osama bin Laden.  Our secret service agencies have not found concrete evidence that bin Laden's al Qaeda was behind 9/11. 

This 3rd world war is very different from wars I and II in being defined as world wars.  Our enemy uses suicide attacks and coordinated bombings of different targets. Now  members of Al Qaeda take a pledge of loyalty to their many leaders who have been trained in one of their camps in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq or Sudan. 

Al Qaeda organizers plan for a complete cut from foreign influences in Muslim countries and wish to create a new Islamic caliphate.  They believe that the Christian and Jews are conspiring to destroy Islam.  To them, killing innocent civilians is religiously justified in jihad. They threaten that "Americans will never enjoy security until our people in Palestine enjoy it."  The only reason they include Palestine in their threats is because they are Muslims and Palestinians act as a fly in the ointment in the minds of some people. 

They also instigate sectarian violence among their own Muslims.  They are at war with the non-Sunni branches of Islam and excommunicate this group of Muslims in what they call "takfir".  Their leaders think of liberal Muslims, Shias, Sufis and other sects as heretics and so will attack their mosques and people.  There has been the Yazidi comunity bombings, Sadr City bombings, Ashoura Massacre and 2007 Baghdad, Iraq bombings. 

Al Qaeda started in 1979 when the Soviets invaded Afghanistan.  By 1980 the Palestinian religious figure, Abdullah Azzam was one of the leaders, and they managed to get into 50 countries.  In 1988 they had cells in 100 countries including the USA, United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain, Germany, Albania and Uganda.  They connect themselves to other terrorist organization.  One way is to train with others, so they have done this with Hezbollah,  and Iranian-Lebanese terrorist group mostly stationed in Lebanon. 

A warning was found last month in bin Laden's compound when papers were leaked  warning that they would set off a nuclear hellstorm if bin Laden were capured or killed.  Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, a senior al Qaeda leader, has said that they had an atomic bomb hidden in Europe that will be detonated if anything were to happen to bin Laden.  They have also uncovered planned chemical and biological attacks planned for London.  They found plans of having cyanide in air conditioning units planted in public offices in the USA.  Let's hope this is all just baseless threats. 

GOOD NEWS
Yemen has been taken over by al Qaeda's branch called Partisans of Sharia (Islamic Law).  They seized Zinijibar, the capital of the Abyan Province in Yemen on May 29th.  In doing so they displaced the population of the city. The Yemeni forces fought back finding themselves circled by these terrorists.   The South Yemen tribes finally banded together and have retaken their Zinijibar. 

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Pakistan's President Asif Ali Zandari have close ties and met together to discuss their cooperation recently.   Osama bin Laden was killed in his compound in Abbottabad which was up the street  from the military base in Pakistan.  Of course Zandari pleaded that he knew nothing about who was living there. 

Khamenei told Zandari that the principal enemy of Pakistani people and the unity of the country is the West, headed by the USA.  We finally suspendcd Pakistan's  military assistance two months after Osama bin Laden's death which was  one third of our 2.7 billion dollar defense package

Interestingly, the Bible Code, discovered by mathematician Dr. Eliahu Rips of Jerusalem, has demonstrated codes involving Obama, al Qaeda and possible atomic attacks.  It must be remembered that this prophesy is one of many possible roads that can be taken.  It did tell that Obama would become President and that he would be in danger of assassination.  It even gave the location of where Bin Laden, Al Qaeda's headquarters and where their dangerous weapons might be found. 

Like the South Yemeni tribes have shown, Al Qaeda can be beaten.  We can't let our guard down even though Bin Laden is no more.   This enemy continues to exist.
