I can see that the bigots here that blame the world's problems on their fear of Jews, or strictly hate the US, whatever the topic, are having a hard time getting their "message" across. I feel badly for them. As they are having such difficulty figuring out how to ban posters, I for one volunteer to no longer post here provided no poster here posts to me or about me. Then maybe these bigots will be able to post to each other and enjoy their hitleresque musings.

October 30, 2005 Three Indonesian Girls Beheaded (Images) Oct 29 2005 - Three girls have been beheaded and another badly injured as they walked to a Christian school in Indonesia. They were walking through a cocoa plantation near the city of Poso in central Sulawesi province when they were attacked. This is an area that has a long history of religious violence between Muslims and Christians. A government-brokered truce has only partially succeeded in reducing the number of incidents in recent years. Police say the heads were found some distance from the bodies. It is unclear what was behind the attack, but the girls attended a private Christian school and one of the heads was left outside a church leading to speculation that it might have had a religious motive. Islamic state Central Sulawesi and Poso in particular was the scene of bitter fighting between Muslims and Christians in 2001 and 2002.

India links Pakistan to blasts By Y.P. Rajesh and Terry Friel 1 hour, 39 minutes ago NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh told Pakistan on Monday that weekend bomb blasts in Delhi were probably linked to foreign elements, while Indian officials said Pakistan could have been involved. ADVERTISEMENT Cameras MP3 Players Shoes Cell Phones Handbags Laptops Pakistani officials responded by urging New Delhi to provide evidence of the involvement of Pakistani militant groups in the blasts which killed 59 people, and promising to cooperate with the investigations. Singh made the comments when Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf called him to offer condolences after Saturday's blasts at two crowded markets, an Indian foreign ministry statement said. The blasts came as residents of the Indian capital shopped for sweets and gifts ahead of Diwali, the biggest Hindu festival, on Tuesday, and Eid-al-Fitr, the most important festival on the Muslim calendar later this week. "The prime minister told the president of Pakistan that the country was outraged at these heinous acts of terrorism," the statement said. "The prime minister again drew the president's attention to Pakistan's commitment to ending cross-border terrorism and said that we continue to be disturbed and dismayed at indications of the external linkages of terrorist groups with the October 29 bombing, and said India expects Pakistan to act against terrorism directed at India." Although Singh did not name Pakistan, Indian foreign ministry officials said he was referring to anti-Indian militant groups based in Pakistan. Pakistan's foreign ministry said Islamabad was ready to extend full cooperation in the investigation. "The president has said we are ready to cooperate in the investigations," spokeswoman Tasnim Aslam said. "But evidence has to be shared with us. "In the absence of that it will be just a claim. While pointing fingers on any Pakistan entity, they should also share evidence with us." An obscure Kashmiri militant group, Islami Inqilabi Mahaz (Islamic Revolutionary Group), claimed responsibility on Sunday for the attacks. CHARRED BODIES Indian security officials and analysts said the group was probably a front for Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (Force of the Pure), which is among several Islamist militant groups fighting Indian rule in Kashmir. A Lashkar spokesman told Reuters on Monday the group was not involved in the attacks and had no links to the Mahaz. Analysts, speaking before the Indian prime minister's comments, said the Delhi blasts would damage a two-year peace process between India and Pakistan but were unlikely to lead to a breakdown. In Delhi police said they were pursuing several leads. Many people were still trying to trace dead or missing relatives and friends. In one morgue, three anguished families fought over the charred bodies of two children -- a girl of about eight and a boy of about three. One family claimed the boy was theirs, another claimed the girl and the third said the bodies were their missing son and daughter. "Why are they doing this to me? Can't a father recognize his own child?" sobbed one of the men. They finally agreed to cremate the bodies jointly, and wait for DNA testing. While the city was slowly getting back on its feet, India's robust financial markets shrugged off the blasts, the main Bombay stock index closing about 2.7 percent higher after a downward correction last week. "Such security measures crop up from time to time, and by and large the government has been able to contain it," said Parthasarathi Mukherjee, head of treasury at UTI Bank, Mumbai.
