Osama Bin Laden Supposedly Spotted near Tibet
Source: Tribune | 2:39:39 PM EST


(RAW), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), intelligence units of the Border Security Force (BSF), Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) and Indian Army officers were present.

Indian officials believe Bin Laden may have reached Laddakh from the Pak administrated Kashmir where they think he may have been helped by some Jihadi or even sympathetic elements in the Pakistani forces.

Officials are also expressing concern over increased activity of foreign nationals along the LoC. Though there are no concrete reports on Pak Army?s support to these foreign nationals, Indian Home Ministry officials feel that some supporters in the ISI may be providing help. An ISI official, Ejaz Khan, has already been identified by the Indian security agencies for helping militants to cross over into the Indian territory.

Officials working with different security agencies said though the border fence along the LoC, which was expected to be completed this year, had raised hurdles for the infiltrators, militants manage to sneak into the Indian territory from across Poonch and Rajauri.

Meanwhile, five additional battalions of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and Border Security Force (BSF) have been called in to fortify all spots of tourist interest besides camps and bases of the Army. Multi-tier anti-infiltration arrangements have been made. The ITBP has also been put on full alert.

Security officials feel the militants have once again succeeded in scaring away outsiders from the Valley, and foreign nationals? presence on the other side of Kashmir could aim at fortifying the bases of militants to facilitate them to launch fresh attacks on army establishments and other sensitive targets.

Sources in the Home Ministry say Indian Border Security Force deployed in the Valley had intercepted Jihadi leader Syed Salahuddin?s message and a speech a few days back which revealed that various militant outfits were gearing up to launch major attacks before the snow starts falling. They have also been directed to intensify their activities in Jammu region, Doda, Bhadrawah and Kishtwar.

Sources told this correspondent that Salahuddin?s speeches were being transmitted on wireless sets available with the militants. This information was immediately passed on to all concerned to make pre-emptive arrangements.

The length of taped speeches transmitted on wireless is said to be 10-15 minutes, and these broadcasts were being repeated several times a day. Militants keep changing the frequencies to dodge Indian army interceptors.

The message called for carrying out attacks on security causes as well as soft civilian targets hampering economic activity and tourism in Kashmir.

Thats right! CBS news for instance has shown more journalistic integrity lately. Or perhaps ABC who were planning on sitting on this whole explosives thing until the night before the election. Perhaps it was ABC's sitting on the latest terror vid and not releasing it all to the FBI upfront that was sound thinking. Ya, Fox are a bunch of FUCKERS man.

fucking lemmings.

Dream on dreamer!

1) It took over FIVE days for SOMEONE to come forward and say "I know what happened to the explosives! FIVE DAYS! That is not the sign of a President who is in control of the facts & the war in Iraq!

2) And WHO came forward..A "major" saying "oh yeah..we destroyed it." ANY film evidence to support this? NO Any other major office to re-confirm this? NO!

Again..another desperate gamble at lying by Bush to cover up the facts.

Who's going to post it, ESPECIALLY since it's NOT been proven false? In fact, here in Seattle was one of the newsmen that went INTO the bunkers on 4/18/04 AFTER the fall of Baghdad, and videotapes tons of munitions in those bunkers!

How many will vote for a liberal this year? Most like more than 50% of the american people this election.
Shumer..losing in the polls? Man..either you're an out & out liar or so dilussional you don't know fact from fiction.

FOX may not be fair and balanced, but they're certainly not liars either. I consider them like CNN or MSNBC, not even close to fair and balanced, but a good enough source to use when considering a story.

Someone didn't read the whole thread. There was an MSNBC link to the story that said that the demolition was filmed.

Now I?m depressed.
I always imagined that people were a lot smarter than this.

see sig

:)

I was mildly concerned, but then I read the Fox story.

It's hardly definitive, and it remains a 'he said he said' category topic, which means it's political use on both sides will probably still be fruitful.

The article says that so many different things have been stated re: the munitions. "They were probably looted before we got there" "We destroyed them" "They weren't secured and were looted afterwards" or my favorite "The Russians helped the IAEA get them out".

This new info isn't likely to sway anyone this close to the election. It's not definitive enough.

Video evidence emerged Thursday night that potentially proves U.S. troops were at the Iraqi military base where tons of high explosives went missing -- before the weapons disappeared.

A Minnesota television crew embedded with U.S. 101st Airborne Division in Iraq recorded the video at the al-Qaqaa munitions base in April 18, 2003, nine days after the fall of Saddam Hussein.

Rebroadcast by ABC News, the footage shows troops inspecting what appear to be the now-missing explosives, still in barrels stamped with International Atomic Energy Agency markings.

In an interview with the New York Times on Friday, former U.S. weapons inspector David Kay said the video appears to be authentic.

"The photographs are consistent with what I know of al-Qaqaa," Kay told the paper. "The damning thing is the seals. The Iraqis didn't use seals on anything. So I'm absolutely sure that's an IAEA seal."

Read the MSNBC link, it says the demolition was FILMED.

The msnbc headline:

"Pentagon: Some explosives possibly destroyed"

'Some' and 'Possible'

He said-he said. Not definitive.

Sen. Charles Schumer holds an overwhelming 72-to-16 percent lead over little-known Republican challenger Howard Mills, a new poll yesterday showed.

The Marist College survey found the Democratic incumbent carrying all voting blocs in all regions of the state. Even Republicans favored him over the GOP challenger, 46 to 38 percent.

and the Major admits to not seeing the seals. How can they claim to have destroyed something they never saw..

And before someone comes back saying they were never there, go read my post above about the video evidence of the munitions being there 7 or 8 days later with U.S. troops standing by.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

:thumbsup yep :thumbsup they are unless and not 2 be trusted.

Learn to read!

I said Shumer is kicking the guys ass!!!

left me out, I'm a

TexCan:Graucho

Again, that is exactly what I fucking said, Shumer is kicking the guys ass.

HINT!!!!! I am a BIG FUCKING LIBERAL and I was pointing out how stupid it was for Republicans to act like Liberal is a bad word.

It's not a bad word ?

Fuck got's 2 get a new Webster's .

Read the link I provided that showed the weapons STILL intact.
In fact, Pentagon officials are now saying the munitions actually destroyed were only about 3% of the total!
