JERUSALEM – In an exclusive interview with WorldNetDaily yesterday, Hamas senior spokesman Sami Abu Zahri taunted Israel for its vulnerability to rocket attacks and warned that the terrorist group plans to kidnap more Israeli citizens just days after it claimed responsibility for the abduction and murder of a Jerusalem resident.
Zahri also told WND Hamas maintains "good relationships" with Syrian President Bashar Assad and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.
"Our relations are good with all the honest forces in the Arab world and this includes Assad's Syria, Hezbollah and other movements and forces," Zuhri said in the interview, which will be released in full on WND this weekend.
Zahri claimed Israel does not have the military capability to stop Hamas' Qassam rockets from flying out of Gaza and hitting nearby Jewish communities.
"Israel has always tried to stop Qassam attacks and she always failed to do so, even while using the most sophisticated technological and military tools. ... Hamas succeeded in creating a new military equation against Israel."

ALBANY, N.Y. Sep 29, 2005 — A federal grand jury has handed up new indictments charging two leaders of an area mosque with conspiring to support terrorists, the U.S. Attorney said Thursday.
The superseding indictment returned Thursday also charges Yassin Aref and Mohammed Hossain with attempting to provide support to Jaish-e-Mohammed, an Islamic extremist group based in Pakistan that is on the State Department's list of designated foreign terrorist organizations.
Islamic terrorism is being promoted by a phenomenal growth in jihadist Web sites, which have grown from fewer than 20 five years ago to more than 4,000 today, according to French and US researchers writing correspondence published in the September 29 issue of the prestigious journal Nature. ...
"It is fair to say global Islamic jihad wouldn't exist without the Internet," said Yael Shahar, a researcher who specializes in the study of cyber-terrorism at the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya. "Today, the structure of the Web is the structure of terrorist organizations. Without it, they would be reduced to local cells."

Sufficient forces remain available to offer any assistance as needed. (Again as this is a good news story from Iraq, the left wing BBC that my taxes help fund, that is supposed to be impartial and unbiased - cue laughter from myself - has not mentioned that, yet when something bad happens the Al Qua, sorry BBC gloats over it for hours.)
Just one question I have to ask on Iraq, where is this little talentless shit hiding?
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi
Now where is this head chopping untermenchen savage? Not a sign of this man any damn place.
Just look at it, thinks its the regular Jihad Jonny. Thinks it is oh so hard.
Nope looks like just another fucked in the head, death cult follower. A nihillistic being, with nothing worth living for in his piss poor existance.
A coward hiding behind "religion", desperate to justify its actions and its meaningless life.
Add to that this Islamic arsehole, if they take it alive will cry like a girl, shit its pants and be dragged to the electric chair screaming for mercy.
Taking the savages down one at a time...
Aref also was charged with making a false statement when he answered "none" to an immigration question asking him to list any organizations to which he had belonged. He also was charged with making false statements to the FBI when he was arrested in August 2004 and denied he was a member of the Islamic Movement in Kurdistan. At the time, he also denied knowing Mullah Krekar, believed to be the founder of Ansar-al-Islam, a radical Islamic fundamentalist group.
Aref, 35, who is the imam of the Masjid As-Salam mosque, and 50-year-old Hossain, a founder of the Albany mosque, have been free on $250,000 bond since shortly after their arrest in August 2004. Each originally was charged with money laundering and supporting terrorism. They were arrested after a yearlong FBI sting using an undercover informant.
The initial 19-count indictment accused them of working with an FBI informant who posed as a part-time arms dealer and proposed that Hossain hold money from the sale of a shoulder-fired missile that would be used to kill a Pakistani diplomat in New York City.
Srinagar, India, Asharq Al-Awsat- An alarming trend is emerging in Kashmir as militant groups are increasingly using children as soldiers in the fight against the Indian Army.
Along the border separating Indian- held Kashmir from the Pakistani side, boys as young as 13 and 14 carrying deadly weapons have been arrested by the Indian security services. In the last year alone, 24 children were apprehended.
Questioned, the young men revealed they had been indoctrinated at madrassas (religious schools) in Pakistan and were forced to cross into Indian territory after undergoing basic military training.
Mohd Latif, aged 14, originally from Karachi in Pakistan stated he was selected from a religious school where he was studying and received military training at a camp where songs extolling the virtues of jihad (holy struggle) were played during military exercises.
This is the way to handle them, please take note our Home Sec. Charles "Fatboy" Clarke.

According to reliable sources, the mosque was under a strict vigil since a year, because of frequent visits of preaching delegations from all over the Islamic World.

How ISLAM treats POW's.BANGKOK (Reuters) - Suspected Muslim militants killed one policemen and two itinerant Chinese workers in restive southern Thailand on Friday, a police official said.
In one of the most clinical attacks in 21 months of violence in the Muslim-majority region, the militants detonated a bomb and used automatic rifle fire on a police motorcycle patrol, they said.
They killed one of the policemen, wounded five, then blocked army reinforcements from reaching the victims.
"They scattered the road with spikes and cut down trees to stop soldiers getting in to help them," a policeman in Yala, one of the three violence-hit southernmost provinces, told Reuters.
Soldiers eventually managed to manoeuvre through the roadblocks in an armoured vehicle to recover the dead policeman and his five colleagues, two of whom had been wounded severely by AK-47 rifle fire, the policeman said.
In a separate incident, suspected militants on motorcycles killed two Chinese street vendors in a drive-by shooting in the neighbouring province of Narathiwat, police said.
Shall end this with a cartoon:KABUL (Reuters) - Afghan police have found mass graves of hundreds of communist troops killed after surrendering to mujahideen forces in the 1980s, a crime in which at least two election candidates are implicated, officials said on Thursday.
The graves were discovered about three weeks ago in Saraqala, a remote part of the southeastern province of Paktika, said a provincial police officer, speaking on condition of anonymity.
"It's believed that these people were killed in 1989," he said. "There was a government brigade that went missing and they captured them. There are at least 300-500 people -- we have counted from their belts, uniforms, boots and bones."
Interior Ministry spokesman Yousuf Stanikzai confirmed that mass graves had been discovered and said a team had been sent by the ministry in Kabul to investigate.
"These were army soldiers of the Najibullah regime who surrendered to the mujahideen and then they were killed," he said referring to the Soviet-backed president executed by the Taliban in 1996.
** And we get out panties in a knot over some hazing photo's. At least our prisoners in the war on terror are still alive. Still thats the basic difference between civilization and the Islamofascist state.

Ok here's a bit from the tolerant Islamic faith that will inspire feminists the world over:
Quran 4:34: Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in their sleeping places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.
