- Thumbed up for the sake of circulating the website. Its not to endorse the contents, which are pro-NeoCon to further support the manufactured "war on terror" and is in many ways a scare-site. The Neo-Connivers would like a scared populace alright.
They stir up the hornets nest of Jihadists, and now ask usto unite under the Neo-Con flag to fight those nasty hornets. They created the problem, goad on our reaction, and now present their Neo-Conartist solutions.
The "war on terror" is replete with suppressed information, misinformation, and tactics that keep government agencies and the populace busy and distracted. In the process they hijacked our Conservative values and our Constitution. God help us. - Thumbed up for the sake of circulating the website.

- Two news flashes on August 1, 2007. First, the lawyers representing the so-called Flying Imams in their lawsuit against US Airways announced that they were not going after the unnamed passengers whose concerns prompted the men to be pulled off the Arizona-bound flight (here). I suppose that is good to know, now that the long-term policy implications of their lawsuit are about to justify (literally) an act of Congress. Second, Cambridge University Press announced that it was going to destroy all copies of the 2006 book Alms for Jihad: Charity and Terrorism in the Islamic World, in response to a libel claim filed in England by Khalid bin Mahfouz, a Saudi banker (here).
Connected? Absolutely. Each story involves people who do not like how information flows these days. Each chose litigation as the means to try to get their way.
Should we be surprised? Hardly. History is replete with examples of sensitive people trying to stop communication that is inconvenient to them. When I was a Utah prosecutor in the 1990s, I recall a Mormon DA who drove around Salt Lake City one night stealing all of the copies of the free underground newspaper, which had him in bed (figuratively) with the controversial town mayor. History is also full of cases by Islamic organizations and individual Muslims who try to use Western litigation to stop the fountain of knowledge. When it comes to the legal merits, they almost never win. When the dismissal happens, they try to claim it was all a silly misunderstanding.
The remarkable thing is that my brethren in the civilized legal profession remain willing to lend credence to these controversies by offering their services, given what is in the law books. The only thing more important to lawyers than billable hours is collecting on those bills, and these cases are consistent losers. Rather than explaining why, I will let the law books do the talking. - Two news flashes on August 1, 2007.

- From the page: "The day after the al-Askariya Mosque in Samarra, Iraq was bombed for the second time in a year and a half, I wrote that the second bombing was "potentially disastrous." Analysts feared that, similar to the first attack on the al-Askariya Mosque on February 22, 2006, this provocation could spark sectarian violence between Sunnis and Shias. Fortunately, about two weeks after the event, Iraq has not witnessed a major spike in violence."

- An excellent group blog on counter-terrorism around the globe. From the depths of the 'stans to Hezbollah in America, they cover it all and offer up a nice little RSS feed into Google Earth. Their own team is sometimes at odds with each other which makes this an even more relevent site as you will not just get the 'same-old, same-old' from the choir book. A *must have* on anyone's reading list who is serious about learning of the operations of Transnational Terrorism globally.
