All of Central America is on alert for a possible al-Qaeda attack against El Salvador for its support of the U.S.-led mission in Iraq, the head of the Nicaraguan army said Friday. Attending a military celebration, Gen. Javier Carrion said Nicaragua's security commission has determined that at least two threats against nearby El Salvador are "real." He said the threats appeared on the Internet. "There is a direct and particular threat against El Salvador," he said. Across Central America security has been tightened at airports and embassies in a bid to avert any possible attack. Honduran Security Minister Oscar Alvarez said Sunday his country declared a national alert after receiving information that al-Qaeda was trying to recruit Hondurans to attack embassies of the United States, Britain, Spain and El Salvador. The purported al-Qaeda plot was directly linked to the war in Iraq, which is why it targeted the United States, Britain and El Salvador, Alvarez said. All three countries are still involved in Iraq. However, it was unclear why Spain was targeted since Madrid pulled its troops out of Iraq earlier this year. Honduras withdrew its 370 soldiers in April. In July, Alvarez said a Saudi-born terror suspect sought by U.S. officials was spotted earlier this year at an Internet cafe in the Honduran capital before fleeing the country. Shukrijumah, 29, apparently entered Honduras illegally from Nicaragua or Panama.

Among those thought to have been knocked into the Túa River is "El Pavo", or The Turkey, fourth in command of the A.C.C. "El Pavo", according to General Peña, participated in an attack against members of the Army in Caribayona, Villanueva, this past February that killed several soldiers. He indicated that in that region of southern Casanare the A.C.C. has extorted money from the civilian population, robbed & stolen & threatened local farmers & ranchers. The "MartÃn Llanos Group" of the A.C.C. has suffered hundreds of casualties (some observers, including a rival faction called the Centauros Block, or Bloque Centauros, estimate as many as a thousand casualties.) The Bloque Centauros is part of the national federation of paramilitaries called the A.U.C., or Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia, which is in peace negotiations with the Colombian government.

In other news from Colombia the Colombian Justice Department, or FiscalÃa, captured Elkin Casarrubia Posada, aliases "El Cura" (the priest)& "El Viejo" (old man), who was captured in a home in MedellÃn yesterday. According to government records he is one of the leaders of the "Bloque Calima" or Calima Block of the A.U.C. (Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia,) the umbrella group of the various paramilitary factions in Colombia which battle left-wing guerrillas & their sympathizers. Casarrubia is presumed to be the righthand man of Hernän Hernändez, alias "Care'pollo", presumed leader of the Calima Block. Hernändez is one of the paramilitary leaders in negotiations with the Colombian government at Ralito. Nevertheless, in the publicized hierachichal ladder of the illegal organization there is no commander by the name Casarrubia. According to investigators Casarrubia participated in the masacre of forty people on April 10th, 2001, in Alto Naya, along the borders of Cauca & Valle. For this masacre the Justice Department of Colombia has called to account 68 presumed paramilitaries captured by the Colombian Marines in May of 2001.
The Calima Block is reported to consist of 500 armed men. The faction first appeared in 2000 in that area of the Colombian Department of Valle. These two near simultaneous blows to the paramilitaries occured at the same time as percieved progress was being made in the peace/demobilization negotiations between the paramilitaries and the Colombian government. These achievements by the government are interpreted as being a good warning to the paramilitary leadership that the Colombian government will not allow continued delinquency by the paramilitaries during the negotiations. Another interpretation of the situation is that the government will gain negotiating leverage thanks to these two successes.

Germany has expelled a Jordanian suspected of links to a terrorist group run by Abu Musab Al Zarqawi, who is wanted for launching several attacks in Iraq, the Bavarian state interior ministry said Friday. The man, identified only as Osama A., was sent to a German prison in late 2002 on suspicion of belonging to Zarqawi's Al Tawhid group, but was released the following January. The Bavarian authorities said he is a danger to public order and safety and was responsible for gathering together donations for Al Tawhid in the area around Munich, southern Germany. He was expelled to Jordan. Al Tawhid is accused of preparing a number of attacks against Jewish interests in Germany. Its stated aims are to overthrow the state of Jordan and kill all Jews. Osama A. came to Germany in 1996 claiming to be a refugee from Iraq but his real identity was discovered some time later. Zarqawi, also a Jordanian, is suspected of ties to Osama Ben Laden but unlike Al Qaeda network leader he has not appeared in video-tapes. He is a chief suspect in several attacks in Iraq, including the bombing a year ago of the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad that killed the world body's special representative, Sergio Vieira de Mello, and 22 other UN workers.
NEW YORK -- Two men have been arrested in connection with an alleged plot to bomb a subway station in midtown Manhattan, sources said early Saturday.
At least one of the men may have an affiliation with a terrorist organization, according to two law enforcement sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity. The sources said the group in question was not believed to be al-Qaida.
The men appeared to be acting independently, and there was no evidence that the alleged plot to bomb the subway station at 34th Street was an attempt to disrupt the Republican National Convention, which is taking place a block away, the sources said.
The two men tried get explosives to bomb the station but did not succeed in obtaining any, the sources said. There was no timeline for the plot, which was first reported by WNBC early Saturday.
The men were arrested Friday, and were expected to face charges in federal court in Brooklyn. Spokesmen for the New York Police Department and the U.S. Attorney's office in Brooklyn did not immediately return calls for comment early Saturday.
Oh yes, WABC radio reports the two were Middle Eastern men.

A U.S. citizen and a Pakistani national were arrested in an alleged plot to bomb a subway station in midtown Manhattan, and possibly other locations around the city, police said Saturday.
Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said the men were not believed to be connected to al-Qaida or any other international terrorist organization, although he said they expressed hatred for America.
The men had been under police surveillance and had discussed placing explosives at the Herald Square subway station and stations at 42nd and 59th streets, Kelly said. The men never obtained explosives, he said.
"It was clear that they had the intention to cause damage, to kill people," Kelly said. "They did not immediately have the means to do it."
He identified the men as Shahawar Matin Siraj, 21, a Pakistani living in Queens, and James El Shafay, 19, a U.S. citizen living on Staten Island.
Kelly said the men visited the Herald Square 34th Street station one block from Madison Square Garden, the site of next week's Republican National Convention on Aug. 21.
The men were being charged with conspiracy to blow up the station, which is central to a large commercial district, including Macy's flagship department store. They were to be arraigned Saturday in federal court.
The men also scouted three police stations on Staten Island and a jail there, Kelly said. They drew maps of those sites and a map of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, which connects Brooklyn to Staten Island, he said.
Though there was no clear tie to the convention, authorities moved to arrest the two men before the convention began, two law-enforcement sources told The Associated Press.
"Their motive was generally hatred for America," Kelly said. He said one of the men had also made anti-Semitic statements.

Why did these two Muslim donkeys feel this was the best time frame to blow-up subway cars....the 'protesters' creating diversions and draining police counter-terrorist resources...that's why!
Countless despicable treasonable acts of out right sedition have been meticulously pre-plotted by the well funded leadership of radical leftwing instigators during the GOP's convention week. Are the Kerry's through their 501C3's funding these 'protests' which could result in substantial loss of civilian lives if al-Qa'ida, thanks to the Leftwing troublemakers are able to slithering through the walls of police anti-terrorist measures?
This nation is deeply engaged in a counter-terrorist war in numerous nations around the globe. The last thing we need is a bunch of schmuck sell-outs making al-Qa'ida's goals of slaughtering more innocent American lives all the easier.
This coming week is the best opportunity to drive home the message to the horde of 'protesters', you side with America's enemies by being the enemy's willing tools of disorder, then those involved must be charged with sedition, arrested and the book thrown at them. Game's up, it's time traitors be prosecuted to the full extent of applicable federal & state anti-terrorist laws.

A man accused of attending a terrorist training camp was deported on Thursday to Pakistan. Sajjad Nasser, 29, was deported under a section of the Patriot Act that expands the legal definitions of terrorist organizations and acts, said Corina Almeida, chief counsel for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. "I think this case sends a very loud message to the terrorists and those that seek to do us harm," she said. Nasser's attorney, David Lane, called the allegation that his client helped terrorists "a big, fat lie". "He is a sacrificial lamb," his lawyer said. "It's ludicrous. It's racist."
Oh, naturally. Naturally.
Nasser was arrested in March 2003 on charges of conspiring to harbour an illegal resident. In a deal with prosecutors, he pleaded guilty to a lesser charge of possessing a fake ID and was sentenced to the 17 months already served. Nasser's brother used Nasser's immigration identification card to make a fake ID so the brother could get a job at a grocery store, Lane said. Nasser was never charged with a terrorism crime; immigration authorities accused him of attending a training camp run by Jaish-e-Mohammed, considered by the United States to be a terrorist group. An immigration judge ruled in June that Nasser's participation provided material support for a terrorist organisation, making him subject to deportation. Lane said Nasser thought the camp's intent was to teach people to defend Pakistan against invasion by India, and left after three days when he realised its true intentions.

A bomb blast wrecked a car in a mainly Muslim province of Thailand and authorities defused a fertiliser bomb less than 24 hours after Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra visited the area, police said on Saturday. Police said no one was hurt in the blast soon after midnight, which blew up a car parked at a petrol pump, and shattered windows of nearby homes in the town of Narathiwat. Saturday's explosion took place about 350 metres from a hotel where Thaksin stopped for about an hour on Friday to meet local officials and residents. Police also defused an improvised bomb about four hours before it was timed to go off at a cooking gas warehouse where workers found it stashed behind gas cylinder tanks.
Clashes erupted between soldiers and Muslim separatist rebels in the southern Philippines, with both sides accusing the other of violating a truce ahead of peace talks. Members of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) attacked a military detachment near the town of Mamasapano in Maguindanao province at dawn, forcing soldiers to retaliate, army spokesman in the area Lieutenant Franklin del Prado said. "Rebel snipers harassed our position in Linantangan village and soldiers are now clearing the area. We are still awaiting military reports. We don't know yet if there are casualties on both sides," he told reporters. Front spokesman Eid Kabalu however said the fighting was triggered when soldiers and government militias conducted a surprise raid on the homes of civilian Muslims and members of the rebel organisation. "The soldiers and militias raided the houses occupied by MILF rebels. They searched houses and harassed many civilians and attacked MILF members without provocation, and this triggered the fighting. The MILF is still investigating this incident," Kabalu said.
Rebel fighters have been instructed to strictly observe a cease fire pact and have urged the government peace panel to investigation the violence. The fighting broke out a day after both sides said they were prepared to resume the next round of peace talks in Malaysia, which is brokering negotiations aimed at ending the MILF's 26-year rebellion for the establishment of an Islamic state in the southern Philippines. Government earlier this week said it had dropped charges against 185 MILF fighters and leaders accused of deadly bombings in the south in a bid to fast-track the negotiations. Talks in Malaysia are to resume in October, the MILF said Sunday on its website, giving no other details. Members of the government negotiating panel were not immediately available for comment.

Looks like the MILF are looking for more concessions from Arroyo. And of course she will most likily give in and spread her cheeks even further for them.....
FALLUJAH, Iraq -- U.S. warplanes and tanks bombarded targets in Fallujah on Saturday and U.S. forces exchanged gunfire with insurgents on the city's eastern outskirts and the main highway that runs to neighboring Jordan, witnesses said.
Fourteen people were wounded in the violence, including eight children, said Dr. Ali Khamis of Fallujah General Hospital.
The attacks struck the city's eastern al-Askari neighborhood as well as the industrial area at the eastern entrance of Fallujah. At least four homes were destroyed and people were seen being rushed to hospital.
Lt. Col. Thomas V. Johnson, a Marine spokesman, said U.S. troops based on the edge of Fallujah had been attacked.
"One of our positions near Fallujah has been taking sporadic fire," Johnson said. "Marines countered with tanks and artillery."
Witnesses said the air raids began at 7 p.m. and clashes between the two sides continued for several hours. Smoke could be seen billowing into the air and fire blazed in the sky after the strikes.
Johnson said one fire in the city had been sparked by a U.S. strike and was "believed to be related to a hit on a significant weapons cache."
U.S. forces have repeatedly carried out airstrikes in Fallujah, west of Baghdad, since Marines ended a three-week siege of the city in April aimed at rooting out Sunni Muslim insurgents.
On Friday, U.S. airstrikes targeted the same neighborhoods, killing three people and wounding 13 others, including a 6-year-old girl, medical officials said.
The military said Friday's attack had targeted an anti-aircraft gun mounted on the back of a truck that attempted to fire on a U.S. plane.

Only children? No women or baby ducks or wabbits?
The Russian government abruptly shifted gears Friday and concluded that at least one of the two planes that fell out of the sky almost simultaneously this week was blown up by terrorists, as a radical Islamic group claimed responsibility for the twin tragedies.
Investigators said they had discovered traces of a type of explosive previously used by Chechen bombers in the wreckage of a Tu-154 passenger jet that came apart in midair and plummeted to the countryside Tuesday night. Analysts were still studying fragments of the other plane, a Tu-134 airliner, which crashed about 500 miles away.
The discovery discredited the government's initial theory that human or mechanical error caused the crashes and renewed attention on Russia's war with separatist rebels in the restive southern region of Chechnya. Under the scenario being pieced together by Russian security services, a Chechen woman boarded each plane at a Moscow airport and triggered explosives in flight that brought down the jets within three minutes of each other, killing 90 people.
The crashes appeared to mark an escalation in a wave of terrorism that has unsettled countries around the world. For the first time since the Sept. 11, 2001, hijackings in the United States, terrorists apparently managed to infiltrate more than one plane in a coordinated attack, evading enhanced airport security.
The synchronized attacks, if carried out by Chechen separatists, would signal a change in tactics. Until now, the guerrillas have often struck soft targets, such as a subway cars, rock concerts and theaters, but never destroyed an airliner.
"They certainly wanted to demonstrate that they're very determined to continue their struggle with all possible means," said Sergei Arutyunov, a Chechnya scholar at Moscow's Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology. "Whether they really planned to use the planes as a 9/11 isn't clear, but it may have just been easier to blow them up."
An extremist organization apparently affiliated with al Qaeda claimed responsibility for the Russian crashes on an Internet site, asserting that it had hijacked the planes in retaliation for what it called Russian brutality in Chechnya.
Officials said they could not determine the authenticity of the statement, which was signed in the name of the Islambouli Brigades. A group calling itself the Islambouli Brigades of al Qaeda claimed responsibility for an assassination attempt against Pakistan's prime minister-designate in July.
"Russia continues to slaughter the Muslims and will not stop unless a war starts where there will be bloodshed," the statement said, asserting that five attackers boarded each plane. "Our mujaheddin, thanks to God, were able to make the first strike, which will be followed by a series of other operations in a wave of support to our brothers, the Muslims of Chechnya and other Muslim areas that suffer the blasphemy of Russia."
In a cryptic addition, the statement said the attackers "succeeded despite the problems they faced at the beginning," a reference that was not explained.
Russia has linked the Chechen separatist movement to international terrorists, and Osama bin Laden has called the war in Chechnya a battlefield of a global holy war. But independent analysts have maintained that the Russian government exaggerates the relationship.
The government had been reluctant to tie the plane crashes to terrorism, a reticence critics attributed to an election Sunday in Chechnya in which the Kremlin wants to install its handpicked candidate to replace the region's former president, who was assassinated. But the weight of the evidence and universal criticism made it untenable to continue discounting terrorism.
At the crash site near the southern city of Rostov-on-Don, the Federal Security Service (FSB) said it had found traces of hexogen, a white crystalline powder also known as cyclonite or RDX. A powerful explosive often used by military forces, hexogen was also used in a series of apartment building bombings in 1999 blamed on Chechen separatists.
Russian investigators focused on two female Chechen passengers killed in the crashes whose families have not come forward to seek their remains. One was listed as S. Dzhebirkhanova on a passenger manifest for the Tu-154 that crashed near Rostov-on-Don, and the other was identified as Amanta Nagayeva, a passenger aboard the Tu-134 that fell in the Tula region about 100 miles south of Moscow.
Search crews in Tula found what they said they believed were Nagayeva's remains Friday, raising to 44 the number of people aboard the Tu-134 and the overall death toll to 90. Officials said part of her body was found in the tail section and other parts were found three miles away, suggesting she was at the center of an explosion.
Nagayeva was the last person to board the Tu-134, which was bound for Volgograd, buying her ticket just an hour before the flight. Dzhebirkhanova held a ticket for a different flight but switched hers at the airport at the last minute to the Tu-154, which was heading to the Black Sea resort of Sochi, according to Russian news accounts.
Security specialists said the two women or their accomplices possibly bribed someone to sneak their explosives on board. "It's not hard," said Sergei Goncharov, a former commander with the Alpha anti-terrorist commando forces. "The metal detectors will not detect it, and we can assume there was someone in security who was cooperating with them. Maybe they bought them off."
The Tu-154 sent out a distress signal and a hijacking alarm, but no voice communication, before it crashed, according to officials, while the Tu-134 issued no signals. Russian planes have general distress buttons in the cockpit as well as in the galley and elsewhere in the cabin. In the cockpit, behind locked, bulletproof doors, pilots can also send a hijack warning by punching in a special four-digit code.
A Russian pilot who regularly flies Tu-134 jets said he and his colleagues were told in training that as little as 400 grams of explosives would be enough to blow a hole the size of a soccer ball in the hull of the aircraft, causing violent decompression at the altitudes flown by those planes.
"If that happens, then it's very dangerous," said the pilot, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation. "A middle-aged man dies in two minutes maximum, and everyone becomes unconscious at once. That's why I think the crew didn't have any time to communicate anything to the ground."

I am not going to pontificate on what the French should or should not do. Ima gonna sit back here and see what the French do:
1. Are they going to do an Aroyyo and cave in to the terrorists?
2. Are they going to make a stand and say that they are not going to cave in to terrorists and defy the ultimatum?
3. Are they going to just be quiet and ignore the terrorists?
Be interesting to see what happens. The Islamists are applying the pressure to France. The French govt has taken some moves against Islamist desires in France. It's a collision course. With the Paleos I would sit back and eat popcorn with shipman, but there is some hope for France yet (though very little) and I would like to see them defy the odds and take a stand.

Re: #3 (Brett): Mike, When did YOU get strident?
I have long advocated deporting foreigners as a response to threats to Americans abroad. I thought President Carter should have deported Iranians as a response to the seizure of the Iranian Embassy. It should be a very easy. No foreigner has any right to stay here a day longer than we say so. We can send them back to communicate our anger over there.

I beg to differ. I was in graduate school at the time and we had a lot of Iranian students in my department. They split on the matter, and at one point we non-Iranians were wondering whether it was going to come to blows in public.

An explosion went off Friday night near a police building in the restive Dagestan region adjacent to Chechnya, and a police official said two people were killed. The blast occurred near the city police headquarters in Khasavyurt, regional Interior Ministry duty officer Abakar Ismailov said. There were conflicting reports about the cause, and Ismailov said it wasn't immediately clear. The ITAR-Tass news agency quoted police as saying the explosion was caused by a gas canister and took place at a cultural center near the police building. The Interfax news agency cited city officials who also blamed a gas canister, which they said was in a cafe. But emergency officials said the blast was apparently caused by an explosive device. Both news agencies reported the victims were a woman and a small child and that part of the cultural center collapsed following the explosion.
via Weekend Australian Gunmen kill 'collaborator'
August 29, 2004
A SUSPECTED Palestinian collaborator with Israel was executed late today by two gunmen outside a mosque in the West Bank city of Ramallah, Palestinian security sources said.
Hassan Abu Sufiya, 27, from the village of Beit Sira, 15km west of Ramallah, died from multiple gunshot wounds to the head and chest, they said.
He was gunned down in front of dozens of onlookers outside a mosque in Ramallah's Al-Amari refugee camp by the two men, one of whom was masked.
The other gunman was recognised by witnesses as a known member of the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, an armed offshoot of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's mainstream Fatah movement.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the killing but the sources said it had been unofficially claimed by the Al Aqsa Brigades, which said it would issue an official statement later today.
Such an execution - in front of a mosque and in full public view - is a common sign that someone is suspected of collaborating with Israel in its occupation of the Palestinian territories. The convenience this practice offers to the guys with guns is hard to ignore... I wonder... think it's ever been abused? Nah, of course not.

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Explosives have been found in the second of two Russian jets which crashed simultaneously this week killing 90 people, investigators say, having already announced the same discovery in the first aircraft.
The latest finding, disclosed by the FSB security service, supported widely-held theories that both aircraft were downed by bombs days ahead of elections in volatile Chechnya. The FSB said on Friday explosives were found in the wreck of the other jet.
"Additional examination of the fragments of the Tu-134 aircraft which crashed on Tuesday ... has revealed traces of hexogen," an FSB spokesman said by telephone on Saturday.
Hexogen, more widely known as RDX and used in previous attacks blamed on Chechen militants, had also been found in the wreckage of the other plane.
Investigators had been pursuing leads linked to terrorism in the crashes ahead of Sunday's election, certain to return a pro-Moscow president in Chechnya.
Interfax news agency quoted Sergei Ignatchenko, an FSB spokesman, as saying Russia was "studying international experience in fighting terrorism in air transport". He said Russia was examining the system used in Israel.
As the investigation proceeded and fragments of wreckage were removed from crash sites, Russia's transport minister toughened security measures and vowed to prevent any recurrence. ...more...

Two women, hexogen detonated in toilets....
Who else remembers the, er, "tampon bomb" scare in London last year?
These would not be detonated in their initial place of concealment, but removed and combined with a small detonator that had been concealed by other means.
The lavatory is the only likely place for this, and would also allow the finished bomb to be placed directly against the structure.
Police action and civil society resistance kept at bay religious fanatics who threatened to capture the Ahmadiyya headquarters in Bakshibazar yesterday to the relief of Dhaka residents reeling from deadly grenade attacks on an Awami League rally. The fanatics under the banner of Aamra Dhakabashi failed to gather at any point in the capital, but threatened to take the Ahmadiyya base soon after the release of their four top leaders arrested overnight. A Dhaka court sent Aamra Dhakabashi President Shamsul Huq, Secretary General Jamal Nasser Chowdhury and key leaders Abdul Kader and Sharafat Ali to jail yesterday. The Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat, Bangladesh, hailed the government and civil society steps, saying the government role proved it could resist fundamentalists if it wanted.
Fourteen platoons of police were deployed at 12 points in and around the Ahmadiyya Complex in the morning to stop Aamra Dhakabashi activists who threatened to say their Friday prayers at the mosque in the sect's headquarters 'at any cost'. The fanatics, after the Juma prayers, tried to gather at Azad Field, but police chased them away. Failing to organise its people, Aamra Dhakabashi formally 'postponed' their capture bid in the afternoon.
Thanking the civil society leaders for their role, Ahmadiyya Nayebe Amir Meer Mobashwer Ali said, "The secular people of Bangladesh possess a strong power and the dream that attended Bangladesh's birth will come true if they join hands to this end." The SAPUFC, Awami League and 11-party leaders and activists earlier gathered at the Central Shaheed Minar and held a rally with SAPUFC President Prof Kabir Chowdhury in the chair. "We will soon form a platform of pro-Liberation, secular, non-communal and progressive people to resist fundamentalist threats anywhere in Bangladesh," Prof Chowdhury said. "Only an united people can stop the extremist and fundamentalist forces who are getting stronger across the country alarmingly."

Isn't it nice to know holier than thou muslims consider these muslims only worthy of death. Where are the peace loving moderate muslims flocking to defend the Ahmadiyyas? Gee I wonder what these Uber-muslims have in store for us kufr?

In all seriousness is Ahmadiyya a sect, a political party, or an organization? & why do these religious fanatics want to capture their headquarters/complex? Were their leaders released after being arrested? It's not really clear to me. Is Aamra Dhakabashi some sort of fundamentalist sect, organization, party, group or terrorist group?

The Ahmadis were founded in the late 1800's in India. The founder claimed to be the Mahdi and of course the One True Islam. There beliefs are Islamic (mostly Sufi) with some elements of Hindi and Christian teachings, work to recruit new members, and are generally peaceful. Of course this means the True Believers of the RoP have declared them apostates and must be killed.

The JI hit its stride in Pakland when they managed to stage sufficient riots to have the Ahmadis (aka Qadianis) declared non-Muslim. That made them into dhimmis, and their mosques and cash could be confiscated.

I heard a report last night on the BBC which pointed out the fact that out of all the bombings in Bangladesh in the past few years none have been solved. The report basically made the Bangladeshi police look like idiots. I didn't know that Interpol actually investigated crimes in countries...I thought they just tracked, arrested & extradited international criminals with international arrest warrants. I thought they specialized in going after criminals that have left the country where the original offense took place and that they don't actually do any investigating or actual police work. They just go after people that their signatory countries' have already got cases against (i.e. indicted criminals, escaped convicts, bail jumpers, parole &/or probation elopees, people with arrest warrants, etc.) And of course they only go after serious criminals. And they are only given a criminal's bio & info if they're suspected to be in a 3rd country, or transitting through 3rd countries. I guess they do have an investigative branch that helps overwhelmed signatories with difficult tasks/investigations/cases, etc. But basically they're the U.S. Marshalls of the world.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai yesterday summoned a powerful militia commander to Kabul following factional fighting in western Afghanistan weeks ahead of landmark presidential elections, an official spokesman said. Commander Amanullah Khan was brought to the Afghan capital with his consent following clashes in Shindand district in Herat province, presidential spokesman Jawad Ludin told AFP. Fighting between Amanullah Khan's forces and those of powerful warlord Ismail Khan left scores dead earlier this month in a battle for control of districts around Herat city. Ludin did not say who Amanullah Khan would meet in Kabul or what discussions in the capital would involve. The fighting broke out Aug. 14 after Amanullah Khan's troops took control of a key military airport in Shindand district 185 kilometers south of Herat and raged for four days until the US stepped in to broker a truce. After the clashes, Karzai sent in troops from the fledgling Afghan National Army, ostensibly to come to the aid of embattled governor Ismail Khan and ensure stability in the province.

I thought Ismail Khan was the renegade guy that is getting helped by Iran...I must be wrong, because if that were the case Karzai wouldn't be wanting to help him.

I don't think Ismail is any more controlled by Iran than he is by Kabul. He'd no more allow the Medes and the Persians to take Herat away from him than he'd allow the Pashtuns to take it away.

NWFP Governor Syed Iftikhar Hussain Shah on Friday rejected claims that the four men killed in a raid in North Waziristan on last Monday were local tribesmen. Mr Shah said that he had allowed identification of the dead bodies but his orders were subjected to clearance from Rawalpindi. "The four killed men were foreigners," Mr Shah told Daily Times at a luncheon he had hosted for members of the Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists (PFUJ) at Governor's House. He denied the tribesmen' claims that the killed men were residents of the area. One dead body was disfigured while the other was in pieces, he added.
More than one thousand tribal students and teachers of seminaries had held a demonstration in front of the North Waziristan Agency chief administrator's office on Thursday rejecting Army spokesman Major General Shaukat Sultan's statement that the four men killed were foreign militants. The protesters also demanded that the dead bodies be handed over to them. The NWFP governor said that one of the two arrested militants was reluctant to speak at first, but later after vigorous "questioning" he disclosed "good information." However, Mr Shah did not elaborate what the "good information" was. Mr Shah, while talking about the situation in Wana, said that it was under control and militants were on the run. He also denied that foreign militants were being trained in Waziristan. "These militants are trained. Do you think trained militants need more training?"
From what we've seen so far ...
Mr Shah declined to link the ongoing terrorism activities in the country with the situation in Wana and said that he was unable to comment on the issue and only the investigating authorities would be able to answer this.

A recent media campaign against the rise in crime has made the capital police arrest 437 people suspected of involvement in robberies and smuggling. A national news agency reported on Friday that the police had carried out a special 24-hour crackdown on suspects in multiple crimes between Thursday and Friday. The agency quoted a police officer as saying that 200 of those arrested were Afghan refugees. The police also confiscated several vehicles and an unspecified quantity of drugs. Local media has been commenting on the increase in the incidence of robberies in Islamabad for the last few months.
