IAEA: Um, actually Iran is definitely seeking nuclear warheads

Posted: 18 Feb 2010 05:19 PM PST

We obviously knew this years ago, but some people are slow learners…

VIENNA (Reuters) – The U.N. nuclear watchdog fears Iran may be working now to develop a nuclear-armed missile, the agency said on Thursday, throwing independent weight behind Western suspicions of an active Iranian weapons program.

In unusually blunt language surfacing under new chief Yukiya Amano, an International Atomic Energy Agency report for the first time suggested Iran was actively chasing nuclear weapons capability rather than merely having done so in the past.

The IAEA seemed to be cautiously going public with suspicions arising from a classified agency analysis leaked in part last year which concluded that Iran has already honed explosives expertise relevant to a workable nuclear weapon.

5 Muslim soldiers arrested at Fort Jackson for trying to poison food supply

Posted: 18 Feb 2010 03:57 PM PST

I'm sure it was just a "tragic event" and not an act of terrorism (As Obama would put it)

This report from CBN News (hattip: StoptheACLU)

CBN News has learned exclusively that five Muslim soldiers at Fort Jackson in South Carolina were arrested just before Christmas and are in custody. The five men were part of the Arabic Translation program at the base.

The men are suspected of trying to poison the food supply at Fort Jackson.

A source with intimate knowledge of the investigation, which is ongoing, told CBN News investigators suspect the "Fort Jackson Five" may have been in contact with the group of five Washington, DC area Muslims that traveled to Pakistan to wage jihad against U.S. troops in December. That group was arrested by Pakistani authorities, also just before Christmas.

Coming as it does on the heels of November's Fort Hood jihadist massacre, this news has major implications.

Stay tuned to this blog for more details.

Apparently they were caught in early December so why are just hearing about this now?

ABC News

Former Vice President Dick Cheney rallied conservative activists today during a brief yet surprise appearance at the Conservative Political Action Conference.
"I think 2010 will be a phenomenal year for the conservative cause and I think Barack Obama is a one-term president," Cheney said to a standing ovation.

He walked out to applause, chants of "Cheney" and a standing ovation as he appeared after daughter Liz Cheney's speech.

"A welcome like that is almost enough to make me want to run for office," Cheney said, laughing. "But I'm not going to do it."

Napolitano Meets with Muslim Brotherhood Leaders

Posted: 18 Feb 2010 10:36 AM PST

But hey…the system worked

What a joke our homeland security has become.

Pajamas Media – Last month, U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and her senior staff privately metin Washington, D.C., with a select group of Muslim, Arab, and Sikh organizations. Among the mix were three organizations directly associated with an outlawed terrorist entity — the Muslim Brotherhood.

Secretary Napolitano spent an hour and a half briefing them on Department of Homeland Security (DHS) counter-radicalization and anti-terrorist programs. The intensive briefings spanned two days (January 27 and 28) and were called by the DHS.

Although there is no evidence of an exchange of classified information, this meeting was the beginning of an Obama administration program aimed at devising a new information-sharing framework with the Muslim organizations — some of them regarded as extremist because of their ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. The group is to meet regularly with DHS senior aides and with Napolitano. This program was imported from the United Kingdom. The Obama administration has decided to replicate the UK program to win over Muslims and to get them to collaborate with the federal government.

Although Matthew Chandler, deputy press secretary and spokesman for Secretary Napolitano, refused to comment on the meetings or identify the groups that attended the two-day session, Pajamas Media has learned the identities of a number of the participants and interviewed them — including those linked to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Dubai police point finger at Mossad over Hamas assassination

My immediate reaction to this article last week was "So f*cking what? Another dead jihadi." They should be happy, another jackass was dispatched to the abyss, to be with allah.

Police '99 Percent' Sure Israel Is Behind Hamas Killing

Dubai police chief Dahi Khalfan Tamim said Thursday he was "99 percent certain" that Israel was involved in the killing of a Hamas militant at a luxury hotel, as Israeli diplomats played down British and Irish concerns that passports from the two countries were forged as part of the plot.

Tamim told Emirati newspaper The National that the investigation revealed Mossad, Israel's spy agency, to be behind the murder.

But Israel played down the diplomatic disagreement following the killing of a top Hamas commander in Dubai by alleged Mossad agents caught on camera and carrying European passports.

"It is important to note that no one (formally) accuses Israel. There is no proof linking Israel to this affair," a senior official said ahead of a meeting on Thursday to which the Foreign Office in London invited Israel's ambassador.

The Israeli official, who asked not to be named, stressed that British authorities "have not summoned the ambassador but invited him for a discussion," showing Britain wanted to make it clear "there is no crisis."

Ireland also called in its Israeli ambassador.

The killing of Mahmoud al Mabhouh, a top militant of the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, last month while allegedly on a weapons purchasing trip to Dubai was widely blamed on Mossad.

Dubai police released the photos and names of 11 suspects with European passports – six from Britain, three from Ireland, one from Germany and one from France – alleged to be members of the hit squad.

In keeping with tradition, Mossad, which used agents with fake foreign passports for such operations in the past, kept mum on the affair.

Dubai's police chief also insisted Thursday the passports were genuine.

"Dubai's police investigation may present the Israeli government and intelligence with tough questions," Israeli newspaper Haaretz said.

The newspaper also asked in an editorial whether it was "proper to place in harm's way Israelis whose identities were ostensibly stolen and used by the assassins?"

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown on Wednesday pledged a "full investigation" of the passports affair.

But Israel's mass-selling Yediot Aharonot newspaper insisted Thursday "the European states whose passports were used cannot direct firm accusations at Israel before they know the facts clearly."

Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Thursday there was no reason to believe Mossad was involved, shrugging off suggestions that ties between Israel and Britain could be strained over the affair.

"There is no reason to think that it was the Israeli Mossad and not some other intelligence service or country up to some mischief," he said.

"I think Britain recognizes that Israel is a responsible country and that our security activity is conducted according to very clear, cautious and responsible rules of the game. Therefore we have no cause for concern."
