Interesting Story from UK Telegraph: Al-qaeda plotted to kill Tony Blair in front of the Queen of England. 

Tony Blair defied an assassination threat from al-Qa’eda to take part in the Queen’s Golden Jubilee celebrations in central London, it can be revealed for the first time. The risk to the Prime Minister was disclosed to a new BBC documentary by Lord Stevens, the Metropolitan Police Commissioner in 2002. He positioned marksmen around Buckingham Palace in readiness for an attack by bombers or snipers. Lord Stevens, talking for the first time about the alleged plot, said: “There was a threat against the Prime Minister over the Queen’s Jubilee period. It was an assassination threat. There was good reason to believe that the threat was credible.” Mr Blair had become a target after backing the overthrow of the Taliban in Afghanistan by the deployment of British air power and troops. He was also using his diplomatic influence to try to generate support for President George W Bush to invade Iraq.

Some Arab States are worried about Iran’s influence in the region. 

Three Arab states in the Persian Gulf would be willing to allow the Israel Air force to enter their airspace in order to reach Iran in case of an attack on its nuclear facilities, the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Siyasa reported on Sunday. According to the report, a diplomat from one of the gulf states visiting Washington on Saturday said the three states, Qatar, Oman and the United Arab Emirates, have told the United States that they would not object to Israel using their airspace, despite their fear of an Iranian response.

There is nothing better than a depressed terrorist—what’s next Osama bin Laden asking for some Prozac? And by the way, didn’t everyone say Hizbullah won the war with Israel? Don’t think so! 

Via: Ynetnews: Nasrallah depressed, researchers say   

Hizbullah leader Hassan Nasrallah is suffering from some form of depression, Israeli behavioral researchers said. The experts, who examined Nasrallah’s patterns of behavior during recent public appearances and compared it to his conduct in the past, said if their assertion was correct it would be difficult to predict the Hizbullah chief’s actions in the future. According to the researchers, Nasrallah’s current speeches and TV appearances lack the usual zeal and charisma. The researchers said Nasrallah’s depression may be the result of criticism directed at him from Lebanon and Syria.  

Osama bin Laden wants Prince Harry Dead or Alive when he serves in Iraq

MI6 code breakers on the case—they have uncovered evidence that Prince Harry is a target of Osama bin Laden, and is wanted dead or alive.

From WorldNetDaily:  

Osama bin Laden personally has targeted Iraq-bound Prince Harry, saying he is wanted “dead or alive,” says an exclusive breaking report today in Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin. Code-breakers for MI6, Britain’s external intelligence agency, have cracked al-Qaida’s secret communications system and discovered Prince Harry is named as a prime target for the terror network when he goes on active service to Iraq. 

The MI6 code-breakers also have discovered the first real evidence in over a year that bin Laden is alive and personally has authorized the capture of the young prince – third in line to the throne – “dead or alive.” The phrase is a chilling echo of that used by President Bush about bin Laden after 9/11. Bin Laden has a $40 million bounty on his head after five years of evading capture. The U.S.-led hunt so far has cost over $1 billion. While no reward so far has been offered by al-Qaida for Harry’s capture or death, the terrorist group recently published a reminder: “We do not forget that our enemies will pay well to capture our beloved Sheik Osama. When the time comes we will also reward those who kill our enemies.” 

Both the queen and Prince Charles have been separately told by their private secretaries of the mounting intelligence concerns after they met with MI6 chief Sir John Scarlett. “The Royals recognize Harry is no ‘ordinary soldier’ and that his capture would be a priceless propaganda prize for al-Qaida. What would Blair do if they threatened to behead Harry?” asked a senior intelligence officer.   

 

Joe Lieberman may leave the Democrat Party.

Joe Lieberman is about fed up with the left wing dominating his party—in fact he is so fed up he may jump ship and join the Republicans. Come on over Joe, we would love to have you. The Democratic Party is doing everything in their power to lose the Iraq War, and with your help we can stop them. Don’t let them pull the funding for the brave men and women fighting to secure Iraq—that would be a terrible mistake and it would make America look weak! 

Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut told the Politico on Thursday that he has no immediate plans to switch parties but suggested that Democratic opposition to funding the war in Iraq might change his mind. And…He suggested, however, that the forthcoming showdown over new funding could be a deciding factor that would lure him to the Republican Party.   

 

Hillary Clinton, don’t let your heart be troubled

I’m coming from the right side of aisle, so Hillary Clinton take my advice at your own risk. We know you are upset that Obama is getting most of the Hollywood money, and you’re upset that David Geffen ripped you and your husband to shreds, but in the long run you will be better off without the Hollywood crowd. Your independence would serve you well in a general election. Hollywood is so far out of the mainstream with the rest of America that we believe Obama will be hurt by his support from Hollywood. So, in the long run you will win the nomination of the Democrat Party and then you will proceed to lose the general election. Sorry, but you can’t win a general election with your stance on national security issues.  

 

Al Qaeda leaders are waiting the United States out

For all who think terrorism will end when we leave Iraq—boy do we have some news for you.  Via Stratfor

Al Qaeda leaders and the jihadist movement in general always have taken a long view of the war, and discussion of a U.S. withdrawal from either Iraq or Afghanistan has long been anticipated. In planning the 9/11 attacks, al Qaeda leaders clearly expected that the United States, once drawn into a war, eventually would weaken and lose heart. A study of al Qaeda’s philosophy, mindset and planning — conveyed through the words and actions of its leadership — is a reminder of just how the current U.S. political debate fits into the jihadist timeline and strategy. It also is an indicator that a U.S. withdrawal from Muslim lands is not al Qaeda’s ultimate requirement for ending attacks against the United States or American interests abroad.
