Al-Qaeda Slave Trade

I hope this one is accurate, Actually I hope itÂ’s not.

Sunday Times : A SENIOR member of an Islamic organisation linked to Al-Qaeda is funding his activities through the kidnapping of Christian children who are sold into slavery in Pakistan.

The Sunday Times has established that Gul Khan, a wealthy militant who uses the base of Jamaat-ud Daawa (JUD) near Lahore, is behind a cruel trade in boys aged six to 12.

Same here, It seems that Hamas and al-Zarqawi are working closer together. It seems logical, I hope itÂ’s accurate. Maybe a conspiracy, so IÂ’ll go with two sources.

(IsraelNN.com) A terrorist gang which used the name Al Qaeda has claimed responsibility for Saturday's assassination attempt against Palestinian Authority (PA) intelligence chief Tareq Abu Rajab, who was seriously injured in a bomb blast.

Source Two

Middle East Times : PARIS -- A group calling itself Al Qaeda in Palestine said it carried out a bombing against the Palestinian intelligence chief and threatened more attacks in a statement posted on the Internet on Sunday.

"We declare our full responsibility for this operation," the group said in the statement, whose authenticity could not be independently verified. "Your mujahideen brothers managed to place a bomb in the special lift used by the apostate Tareq Abu Rajab ... but were hasty in detonating the device which should have been triggered once the lift door was closed."

Either these men belong on the short bus or else something fishy is going on. Michelle Malkin thinks so, IÂ’ll defer to her judgement since I donÂ’t have any.

TBO : TAMPA - Two Saudi men were arrested Friday after they boarded a school bus and rode to Wharton High School in New Tampa.

Students on the bus became alarmed, as did the bus driver, who called ahead. Hillsborough County sheriff's deputies met the bus at the school and detained the men. No one was injured and nothing out of line occurred on the bus, deputies said.

TAMPA - A judge revoked bail for two Saudi men arrested Friday for boarding a school bus and riding to Wharton High.

Whew IÂ’m nervous, Ok what else Â…Speaking of Short Busses, not related to anything just very wierd (bad gay warning last link)

Hamas and Fatah donÂ’t like each other very much.

Times Online: Tension between victorious Hamas and defeated Fatah have flared into violence in recent weeks, especially in the Islamist groupÂ’s Gaza stronghold. Hamas controls the Palestinian Parliament but Mr Abbas remains the figurehead President, with both sides vying for control of the security forces

That one seemed pretty safe.

Iraqi Prime Minister Vows to use “Maximum Force” to end the violence. Hey are they like the A-Team?

Yahoo News: Al-Maliki decried what he called "sectarian cleansing."

"The militias, death squads and the killings are all abnormal phenomena," he said. "We should finish the issue of militias because we cannot imagine a stability and security in this country with the presence of militias that kill and kidnap."

Well that’s the real trick, aint it kid? He is right though, failure to disarm the militias right at the start was an error. At least I think it may have been an error. I’ve not met these “Maximum Force” guys yet. Who are they?
