LG; <OT> Re I must admit...he IS trying to get people on his side. Federal employee raises and now this, attacking terrorist. (I must admit, I do like the attack stuff.) -------------------- He says he ordered it, and technically I guess that's right, but he was just doing what I and some others told him to back on AUG 8th, -------------------- Message 5446782 in the middle. And on the 10th, the CIA read SI and found out who did it as this was posted on SI on the 10th of Aug. * Osama Bin Laden is the Logical Candidate for Perpetrator Osama Bin Laden, a wealthy Saudi expatriate who had spent time in Sudan and is now in Afghanistan. Bin Laden is a good focus for several reasons. First, he has recently been making threats against U.S. facilities. Of course, Bin Laden makes such threats regularly. Russians recently issued a warning about active and spreading Wahabi extremism. Wahabi is a Saudi variety of Islam. Russian intelligence is extremely sensitive to the spread of Islamic movements into Central Asia and the Caucasus. They are in a crisis mode along the Afghan border, where Bin Laden's hosts, the Taleban, are waging an offensive to capture the remainder of Afghanistan. ------------------- So today CNBC comes out as if this has been some secret. <g> Jim
