Got the most nifty terrorist claim of 2001...[though the AP writer terrorists in Zimbabwe is pretty good.] nytimes.com TOKYO, Dec. 27 — Drawing on its best cold war oratory, North Korea today denounced the sinking by Japan of an unidentified boat in a high seas gun battle last Saturday as "a crime" that is "nothing but the brutal piracy and unpardonable terrorism of a modern brand that could be committed only by samurais of Japan in defiance of international laws." I really liked the samurai part; very nice touch. jttmab

On the subject of dissuading terrorism and brainwashing. nytimes.com "That's Bush's headache, and Musharraf's, not ours," said Rashid Minhas, a 28-year-old Pakistani who is rector of the 200-acre educational complex where 1,200 students are steeped in the tenets of militant Islam — and, according to Western and Indian intelligence reports, in the basics of "jihad," or holy war. "Let Bush do what he will; our duty as Muslims is to follow the teachings of the holy prophet," Mr. Minhas said during an hour-long tour of the campus in which he waved away any questions relating to the activities of Lashkar-e-Taiba, the attacks of Sept. 11, Osama bin Laden or the disputed territory of Kashmir, where Lashkar's Islamic fighters have been challenging Indian rule for much of the past decade. "We are not frightened of Bush, we are only fearful of God." jttmab
