Monday's Winds of War: 17 Apr 2006
by WoW Team Monday on April 17, 2006 05:50 AM
Welcome! Our goal at Winds of Change.NET is to give you one power-packed briefing of insights, news and trends from the global War on Terror that leaves you stimulated, informed, and occasionally amused every Monday & Thursday. Monday's Winds of War briefings are given by Peace Like a River and Security Watchtower.
Top Topics
A senior Egyptian al Qaeda member was killed along with other militants during a Pakistani military raid of a hideout in the northern part of Pakistan, sources have told ABC News. Multiple intelligence sources in Pakistan confirmed to ABC News that they believed Abu Mohsin Musa, also known as Abdul Rahman, had died in the overnight raid. Rahman was one of the FBI's most wanted men with a $5 million bounty on his head. He was indicted in absentia in a New York court for his alleged involvement in the bombings of the United States embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania; and Nairobi, Kenya, on Aug. 7, 1998.
On Sunday a bomb exploded on the outskirts of Istanbul, wounding 31 people in the latest round of violence in Turkey.
Hamas is remaining defiant in the face of western aid cuts, and vowing not to allow the Hamas-led government to be toppled. Despite opposition from the United States and Great Britain, Russia is promising financial aid for the Palestinian authority and Iran is calling on the Muslim world to provide funding while pledging $ 50 million in aid to the PA. Following aid cuts a couple weeks ago, the United States has now come out and banned U.S. citizens from doing business with the Hamas led PA.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahamdinejad has declared Israel a threat to the Islamic world, saying that "the Zionist regime is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm."
Other topics today include: Iranian suicide bombers; Euro attitudes about Hamas; El Baradei snubbed in Iran; Islamic Jihad vows unity with Iran; Hezbollah accuses U.S.; al Qaeda in Palestine; Chaos in Gaza; Saudi prison release; Yemen al Qaeda arrests; Moussaoui trial; USF Professor deported; Clashes in Chechnya; Violence in Afghanistan; Maoist threat to India; Attacks in Kashmir; Arrests in Baluchistan; Kidnappings in Waziristan; US Offensive in Kunar province; Confrontations in Nepal; Tamil Tiger attacks; Chad/Sudan confrontation; and more.
