Dikla Zino, 22 ===> "Dikla Zino, 22, and her 16-year-old sister, Sivan, used to take the 20 bus to the center of the city every morning together. But on Thursday Dikla, who lived in the Kiryat Menahem neighborhood, got up late and Sivan left on an earlier bus. Dikla boarded the bus along with the suicide bomber and was seriously injured in the head and chest when he detonated the bomb. She died on the operating table at Hadassah Hospital, Ein Karem. Dikla, who was released from the army four months ago, worked as a book-keeper. She is survived by her parents and three siblings. She will be laid to rest Friday morning at the Givat Shaul cemetery." <=== haaretzdaily.com What horrors did Dikla witness in her last few minutes of life, after being attacked by an Arab with a bomb which contained nuts and bolts and nails and rat poison. Arabs would rather kill Jews and Christians, rather than see Arab children grow up in peace and prosperity. Sad, isn't it?

U.S. Adds 13 Nations to Terror List Nov 22, 4:49 PM (ET) By CURT ANDERSON WASHINGTON (AP) - Men from 13 additional countries considered at higher risk for terrorism who entered the United States on or before Sept. 30 must register with the government, Attorney General John Ashcroft announced Friday. The new rules affect only males born on or before Dec. 2, 1986, who are from Afghanistan, Algeria, Bahrain, Eritrea, Lebanon, Morocco, North Korea, Oman, Qatar, Somalia, Tunisia, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen. In addition, these men must be intending to stay in the United States at least until Jan. 10, 2003. Earlier this month, Ashcroft announced similar requirements for males at least 16 years old from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Sudan and Syria. Affected men will have to visit their local Immigration and Naturalization Service office to be fingerprinted and photographed and to provide detailed information about their backgrounds and the purpose of their visit to the United States. Since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Ashcroft said, "we must have a better understanding of who is entering and existing our country." The effort is part of a broader anti-terrorism program to screen visitors at the border from those countries when intelligence signals a higher risk. That program began on Sept. 11, 2002; the rules announced Friday are intended to gain information about men from the designated countries who were here prior to that date. The affected population numbers in the thousands and includes students, people with long-term travel visas, family members and others, Justice Department officials said. The requirements do not apply to permanent residents - those with INS "green cards" - or to naturalized citizens from those countries. Diplomats are also excluded, as well as those who are seeking or were granted political asylum in the United States. apnews.excite.com

I think it was wrong for the US to help Saddam build weapons of mass destruction, Wait... Saddam said he doesn't have any WMDs... Been saying it all along, even when his own defecting generals tattle on him and we find them... As for claiming the US used nuclear weapons on Iraq, that's like claiming the WTC attacks were a chemical attack... After all, it was the burning jet fuel, a petro-chemical, that really made them collapse... DPU projectiles are actually less radioactive than naturally occuring uranium. So if I were to throw a chuck of U-238 at you, I can just see you going to the police and claiming I attacked you with a nuclear weapon... LOL!!!! Hawk@sameoldthomasm.con
