CANADA GROWING AS "TERROR CENTRAL"

"Cyber Jihadists" operating freely from Canada's Eastern Seaboard By Judi McLeod & Sean Osborne Friday, July 6, 2007 While world attention is on "cyber-jihadists" using the Internet to urge Muslims to wage holy war on non-believers, Canadian authorities should check out the Global Islamic Media Website . Operating from pastoral Yarmouth, N.S., the Global Islamic Media Website is touted as an "al Qaeda media website". (here). Would-be jihadists can email operators of the website: arabicjihad@msn.com . In an era where suicide bombers are `graduating' en-masse before being dispatched to western countries, it is chilling to know that sites such as the Global Islamic Website seems to operate with impunity. In the first case of its kind, three "cyber-jihadists" were jailed for between six-and-a-half and 10 years on Thursday. "Tariq Al-Daour, Younis Tsouli and Waseem Mughal had close links with Al-Qaeda in Iraq and thought there was a "global conspiracy" to wipe out Islam, the Woolwich Crown Court in south-east London was told." (Breibart.com, July 5, 2007). "Moroccan-born Tsouli, 23, was jailed for 10 years, UAE-born Al-Daour, 21, received a six-and-a-half year sentence, and 24-year-old Mughal, who was born in Britain, was given seven-and-a-half years. "Sentencing them, Judge Charles Openshaw said the men had engaged in "cyber jihad", encouraging others to kill "kuffars" or non-believers. "It would seem that Internet websites have become an effective means of communicating such ideas," he said, although he added that none of the men had come close to carrying out acts of violence themselves. "Referring to Tsouli, whom he recommended for deportation to Morocco after serving his sentence, he said: "He came no closer to a bomb or a firearm than a computer keyboard." Using email and radical websites, the three computer experts spent at least 12 months trying to encourage people to follow the extreme ideology of al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden. Al-Daour, Tsouli and Mughal also pleased guilty to a 1.8-million-pound conspiracy to defraud banks, credit card and charge card companies. Films of hostages and beheadings were found amount their possessions, including footage of British contractor Ken Bigley, who was killed in Iraq in 2004, and US journalist Daniel Pearl, killed in Pakistan in 2002. Compact discs containing instructions for making explosives and poisons were also found, with other documents giving advice on how to use a rocket-propelled grenade and how to make booby traps and a suicide vest. Justice seems to be keeping up with "cyber jihadists" overseas. Incredible to consider that in the U.S. websites such as the Washington-based MEMRI, which tracks and translates valuable information from the Jihadist front, has been banned from use at the office for (Canadian)government employees. The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) explores the Middle East through the region's media. MEMRI bridges the language gap which exists between the West and the Middle East, providing timely translations of Arabic, Persian, and Turkish media, as well as original analysis of political, ideological, intellectual, social, cultural and religious trends in the Middle East. As of a few days ago, GE IT, JP Morgan Chase, Defense Finance and Accounting Services, and—the Federal Government—all are now banning access to Jihad Watch. Jihad Watch (anti-jihadist) is dedicated to bringing public attention to the role that jihad theology and ideology plays in the modern world, and to correcting popular misconceptions about the role of jihad and religion in modern-day conflicts. The same employees, blocked from MEMRI and Jihad Watch, however, can visit CAIR on line, read anything about Islam and even get the Arab news. "It is unfortunate that these people block the very information that we need in these times," one reader complained. "The Internet, for all its faults, has been the end of the stranglehold the politically correct media have long had on the news. Neither liberal or conservative news outlets dare to face the truth about the global jihad in any thoroughgoing or realistic way, but you can get it here—and I am not inclined to take lying down being vilified (as a hatemonger, which is apparently the pretext for the ban) and silence, when I am telling the truth. " Meanwhile, "cyber jihadists" thrown out of business in Great Britain operate freely on Canada's Eastern Seaboard.

Alan Note: considerable amounts of nuclear material viable to make dirty bombs have disappeared in Canada. Some items do not need to be exploded. Back in the 1980s in Brazil, a small cannister of this kind of material ended up in a scrapyard. Because of the exposure to the radiation and wind path people died and some 80 buildings had to be destroyed and the land cleared. It's not just an explosion but simple as opening a cannister in a public place.
