Sask. father guilty of second-degree murder
Updated Fri. Jan. 19 2007 11:31 PM ET
CTV.ca News Staff
A father who shot to death his teenage daughter's drug-dealing
boyfriend has been found guilty of second-degree murder.
The eight jurors, who had been deliberating since Wednesday,
also recommended that 50-year-old Kim Walker be eligible for
parole after 10 years -- the most lenient possible sentence.
Justice Jennifer Pritchard agreed, telling Walker: "You're a
desperate man and no doubt the hearts of most parents reach
out to you. But you wrongfully killed this man."
Second-degree murder carries a mandatory life imprisonment
sentence. .........
Several residents in the small Saskatchewan community of
Yorkton had shown their support for Walker, who shot convicted
drug-dealer James Hayward, 24, in March 2003. Hayward
bled to death in his own home.
Walker's daughter, Jadah, had been taking morphine with
Hayward. She was 16 at the time and had struggled with
drug addiction.

Saddam Hussein Dead...
with a remorseless brutality for a quarter-century and was
driven from power by a U.S.-led war that left his country in
shambles, was taken to the gallows and executed Saturday,
Iraqi state-run television reported.
It was a grim end for the 69-year-old leader who had vexed
three U.S. presidents. Despite his ouster, Washington, its allies
and the new Iraqi leaders remain mired in a fight to quell a
stubborn insurgency by Saddam loyalists and a vicious
sectarian conflict.
Also hanged were Saddam's half-brother Barzan Ibrahim
and Awad Hamed al-Bandar, the former chief justice of the
Revolutionary Court. State-run Iraqiya television news
announcer said "criminal Saddam was hanged to death and
the execution started with criminal Saddam then Barzan
then Awad al-Bandar."
JUSTICE HAS BEEN SERVED!!!!

MOTHER MISSING!
she went to retrieve her two daughters in Lebanon where her
husband had taken them.
In a child disappearance case spanning three continents and
six months, Melissa Hawach and her father, Jim Engdahl, have
not been heard from since Dec. 21, when she grabbed her
daughters, Hannah, 5 and Cedar, 3, from a hotel near Beirut.
Lebanese security officials said Sunday that the whereabouts
of Melissa Hawach and her two daughters are still unknown.
Also, it was not known whether the woman and her daughters
had left Lebanon via an illegal land crossing at the border
with Syria, the officials said, speaking on condition of
anonymity because they are not authorized to speak to
the media.
Hawach's estranged husband, Joseph Hawach, had taken
the girls to Lebanon — from where his family originally
hails — without her permission, said Rhonda Morgan,
executive director of the Missing Children Society of Canada.
Morgan said Sunday she was waiting to hear from
Melissa Hawach adding that she wanted her daughters
back in Canada by Christmas. "That was the goal," she said.
Catherine Gagnaire, a spokeswoman for Canada's
Foreign Affairs Department in Ottawa, said it had been
providing assistance to Melissa Hawach since July but
did not know whether they still had contact or whether
they were returning to Canada.
Joseph Hawach had secured his estranged wife's approval
to take the children to visit his family in Australia in July
and was to return the girls to Melissa , who has custody, in
August.
Near the end of the vacation, her husband stopped
answering her calls. She called her in-laws and was told
by them that he had left the country and would not be
returning with the girls, Morgan told The Associated Press.
"That started a huge search. At first we didn't know where
they were. Then there were rumors that Joe and the girls
and his mother had gone to Lebanon at the height of the
Lebanon-Israeli war in the summer," Morgan told the AP
on Saturday. "We couldn't confirm that, but eventually
there was an address location confirmed for Joe and
the girls just north of Beirut."
Australian court records show that during a Nov. 29
preliminary hearing in a legal action Melissa Hawach filed
against her husband's family in New South Wales state
Supreme Court, Joseph Hawach's brother, father and
uncle told the court that the children had been taken
to Lebanon.
"He's expressed an intention to stay," court records
quoted Hawach's brother, Pierre Hawach as saying
while recalling a phone conversation he had with his
brother. "He said, 'I'm not coming back'."
Hawach's family in Australia could not be reached
Sunday for comment.
Melissa Hawach had retained lawyers in Lebanon,
Canada and Australia, and had been told that similar
cases in the country had favored the wronged spouse,
despite the fact that Lebanon was not a party to an
international treaty on the return of abducted children.
However, she later learned that the process could drag
on for as long as two years in Lebanese court, said Morgan.
"Melissa didn't go over there with the intention of the
re-abduction of the kids. She went over there to go
through the courts," said Morgan. "She did everything in
her power to do the right thing and was basically left with
no other alternative."
With the hope of speeding along the process,
Melissa Hawach, who had traveled to Australia twice
since the girls disappeared, left for Lebanon in the middle
of December and checked into the same hotel.
She spent several days watching the girls from a distance
as they played with other children in the compound and,
upon learning that the surveillance team she hired was
returning home for the Christmas holiday, decided she
could not leave without the girls, according to Morgan.
Morgan added that Melissa Hawach decided she would
approach the girls and, if they wanted to come with her,
would take them to the Canadian embassy in Lebanon.
"She went to the hotel and, when the girls came down,
she called out to them and they apparently ran to her,"
said Morgan, citing testimony from unidentified witnesses
at the hotel. She then took them away in a waiting vehicle,
said Morgan.
The officials said the New Zealander and Australian who
helped Melissa Hawach recover her daughters are still in
Lebanese police custody for their alleged role in the
kidnapping of the two children without their father's
knowledge and attempting to leave Lebanon after
finishing their job.
Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade
said that a 38-year-old man was detained in Beirut on
Dec. 21 and is being provided with consular assistance

KALPOE BROTHERS IN A TIGHT SQUEEZE...
As per http://www.scaredmonkeys.com/
Scared monkeys is reporting that Two lawsuits have
been filed in the case of a college student who vanished
in Aruba nearly two years ago, as per Fox news.
FOX News' Catherine Donaldson-Evans and
Greta Van Susteren contributed to this report.
A wrongful death lawsuit has been filed against brothers
Deepak and Satish Kalpoe, two of the young men last seen
with Natalee Holloway, the Alabama teenager who
disappeared in Aruba in May 2005.
The suit of Beth Twitty and Dave Holloway was filed in
Los Angeles Superior Court as a related case to a defamation
lawsuit the Kalpoe brothers filed Wednesday against pop
psychologist and talk show host Dr. Phil, CBS and Paramount,
among others.
"All we want is justice for our daughter," Twitty said
THE FACTS ARE:
Holloway was last seen alive with the Kalpoes and a Dutch
teen, Joran van der Sloot, in a gray Honda early on the
morning of May 30, 2005.
The brothers and van der Sloot have all been arrested in
connection with her murder — the Kalpoes on two
different occasions — and later released, but none
have been brought to trial.
Holloway's body has never been found and the
highly publicized case — which drew swarms of reporters
to Aruba for months during the summer of 2005 — has
never been solved, despite numerous leads and
extensive searches of various corners of the island.
ANOTHER FACT IS ARUBA HAS BEEN LAX IN
DOING ANYTHING TO RESOLVE THIS CASE!!!!

Minimum 17 years for wife-killer...

UPDATED: 2006-12-16 03:19:57 MST
By TONY BLAIS, SUN MEDIA
EDMONTON -- For committing the "most reprehensible and
extreme form of domestic violence" Michael White was
yesterday given life in prison with no chance of parole for
17 years.
The 29-year-old former soldier kept his head down as
Court of Queen's Bench Justice Mary Moreau passed sentence
on him.
"Mr. White committed the ultimate act of spousal abuse,
while occupying a position of trust," said Moreau, listing
off the aggravating factors in the July 12, 2005, slaying.
"Liana White was four months' pregnant," said Moreau.
"He has deprived his young and vulnerable child of her
mother," said Moreau, referring to the White's five-year-old
daughter Ashley, who likely saw the attack.
"The crime was brutal and callous, with signs of struggle
evident on the body by way of defensive wounds.
"Mr. White left the body without dignity in death, stripped
naked in a ditch.
"Mr. White attempted to cover up his crime."
The judge also noted a victim impact statement describing
Ashley as bereft and traumatized by the loss of her mother.

'GUILT' TRIP ON NATALEE
see link below
By MARSHA KRANES
November 29, 2006 -- A Dutch reporter investigating the
2005 disappearance of Alabama teenager Natalee Holloway
in Aruba claims a lawyer representing the first suspect in the
case once paid a visit to the lead prosecutor "to clear his
conscience."
This case has been one of the most mishandled case
ever.

One-On-One with Natalee Holloway's Mother
Seth Seymour
-->Natalee Holloway is a face and name you know too well.
Beth Holloway Twitty is the mother mourning that teenager,
now for nearly 19 agnonizing months. "They have to find
Natalee. They have to find our daughter," Twitty pleaded
only days after Natalee disappeared on a school trip in Aruba.
That was then. "And I have just as much hope today as
I did in the beginning." This is Twitty now. "For Natalee, we
know it's too late. We also know it's too late for us," she says.
Natalee has never been found. But it's not too late, she says,
for others who travel unaware of what can happen.
That was her message to 400 people in Cleveland Tuesday
night at a $75-per-plate fund-raiser for the Tennessee
Christian Academy. "When you have a missing person or
a crime committed in a foreign country, you're very restricted
with the information you get from officials," Twitty says.
And this mother is still suffering from that same problem.
"As far as Natalee's investigation goes, we really don't know
where it stands." But Twitty charges ahead, trying to find
answers, trying to help others through her organization
International Safe Travels Foundation. It's all because of
the daughter she might never see again. "She loved her
friends, she loved life. She was dedicated and committed, and
she wanted to make a difference. So now we're trying."
ARUBA HAS DONE NOTHING SUBSTANCIAL TO SEARCH
FOR THIS MISSING GIRL!

Pope Benedict XVI arrives in Turkey

ANKARA, Turkey -
"Pope Benedict XVI' arrived in
Turkey Tuesday on his first
visit to a Muslim country,
where he will seek to ease anger
over his perceived criticism of
Islam and mend a split with the world's
Orthodox Christians." .....
"The outcome depends partly on the words and gestures of
Benedict, who triggered an outcry in September when he
quoted a 14th century Christian emperor who characterized
the Prophet Muhammad's teachings as "evil and inhuman."
The Vatican said the speech was an attempt to highlight the
incompatibility of faith and violence, and Benedict later
expressed regret for the violent Muslim backlash."
Was the 14th century Christan emperor wrong?
Please show me the humanity in the muslim
religion which targets others which are not in
tune with their beliefs?

Twitty says tragedy led to mission
BRANNON STEWARTNews staff writer
In front of more than 600 Samford University students Monday
night, Beth Holloway Twitty shared intimate details of the
nightmare that has evolved into her life's mission.
"I never imagined that I would be traveling around telling
people of how Natalee was kidnapped, raped and most likely
murdered on the last night of her senior trip," Twitty
told the students inside Reid Chapel after a video tribute
to her missing daughter.
Natalee Holloway was last seen on May 30, 2005, during
a senior class trip to Aruba after graduation from
Mountain Brook High School.
In a press conference before her speech, Twitty said
there are not any new developments in the case.
"(Aruban officials) still say they're doing searches, but
we just don't have any communication from them,"
Twitty said. "It's so frustrating."
In the year and a half since her daughter has been
missing, Twitty has founded the nonprofit International
Safe Travels Foundation to educate the public about
travel safety.
She spoke to students at Samford about her spiritual
journey since her daughter's abduction, but she also
stressed the importance of properly preparing for
safe international travel.
"I'm not saying in any way that you shouldn't travel
outside this country," Twitty said.
"But you need to remember you do leave behind the
privileges and rights that we're accustomed to here
in the U.S. and that we take for granted."
Twitty said students should be proactive when
traveling overseas, such as carrying emergency
contact numbers of the U.S. government and becoming
familiar with the laws of the countries they plan to
visit.

DID ARUBA LIE AGAIN?
April 21, 2006
ORANJESTAD, Aruba --Aruban authorities studied photos of
the sea floor Friday as part of an investigation into the
disappearance of missing American teenager Natalee Holloway,
prosecutors said.
The photos were taken during a four-day search led by coast
guard ships off the coast of the Caribbean island earlier this week,
said Mariaine Croes, a spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office.
Croes declined to specify what authorities hoped to find in the
photos or to say how the search was related to Holloway's
disappearance nearly a year ago.
The coast guard of Aruba and the Netherlands Antilles halted
the search Thursday and authorities declined to say whether
it would resume amid what appeared to be renewed activity in
the case.
Authorities on Saturday arrested Geoffrey van Cromvoirt, 19,
saying he was suspected of "criminal offenses that may be
related to the disappearance" of Holloway, but they have not
provided details.
Van Cromvoirt's defense lawyer has said his client has no
connection to Holloway's disappearance.
The 18-year-old Holloway, of Mountain Brook, Ala., was last
seen driving away from a bar with three young local men on the
final night of a high school graduation trip to the island.

Bermuda judge orders review in case...
Of murdered Ontario teen...
CBC News - 10 Nov 2006
The family of the Belleville, Ont., teen murdered 10 years ago
in Bermuda received new hope Friday when a judge opened
the door to the possibility of new charges being brought in the
case.
The family of the Belleville, Ont., teen slain 10 years ago in
Bermuda received new hope Friday when a judge opened the
door to the possibility of new charges being brought in the
case.
Earlier this year, the family of Rebecca Middleton asked
Bermuda's director of public prosecutions to revisit
evidence for the purpose of bringing sexual assault charges
in the case, but the director declined, stating that the same
evidence couldn't be used to prosecute a person twice.
Chief Justice Richard Ground ruled Friday that there was
a legal basis to review the prosecutor's decision.
A hearing is expected to take place in early 2007.
Middleton was 17 when she was killed in July 1996 while
on vacation with a friend. She had been raped and stabbed
35 times.
Teenager Justis Smith was charged with her murder
but a judge threw out the case in 1998, ruling that there
was insufficient evidence.
In 2002, Smith was convicted of stabbing a woman.
Another man pleaded guilty to a charge of accessory after
the fact in the Middleton case; Kirk Mundy received a
five-year prison sentence.
Family won't give up hope
David Middleton, Rebecca's father, met with Ground
earlier this week and told the Bermuda Sun the family
was not giving up hope despite all the legal setbacks.
"It takes a while, but you eventually accept the fact
Becky is not coming back and that we have lost her,"
he said.
"But we were victimized twice: once by the people who
killed her and once by the system that failed to prosecute
effectively.
It's almost like an attitude thing, like 'these things happen.'
" While double jeopardy applies in Bermuda, Attorney
General Philip Perinchief said earlier this year he would
review a recent change in British law that allows suspects
in serious crimes such as murder and rape to face a second
trial if there is compelling new evidence.
In July, the Bermuda government awarded $2,840 to the
Middletons in compensation.
The low amount caused controversy, with opposition
parties demanding changes to the country's Criminal
Compensation Act, which doesn't provide for compensating
for pain and suffering.
The Middletons were compensated for expenses related
to travel to Bermuda for court proceedings and the cost of
bringing the teen's body home.

AND DEEPAK AND SATISH KALPOE!!!!
WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP!!!!!!!
REMEMBERANCE DAY!
National War Memorial
in Ottawa today, paying their respects to those
who died and those who risked their lives
in the fight for freedom.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Gov. Gen. Michaelle Jean
arrived at the Remembrance Day ceremony just before 11 a.m.
ET, along with an estimated 25,000 people who came out
despite drizzling rain and overcast conditions.
The prime minister was accompanied by his wife Laureen
and children Ben and Rachel.
A military band played the national anthem, the Canadian flag
was lowered to half mast and a moment of silence was observed
to begin the ceremony.
A minister then gave a brief address, paying tribute to fallen
soldiers and those who continue to serve their country.
"We acknowledge the need to protect and defend that which
the world cannot bear to lose: liberty, peace and a future that
holds promise for our people and for all people in the world,"
the minister said.
"For those who have served in the armed forces of our
country in times of war and peace, throughout our history and
in our day, and who did not count the cost when the time came
to sacrifice, we give you thanks."
Jean laid the first wreath at the foot of the memorial, followed
by a steady stream of people paying their respects.
Later, veterans took part in the "march past," one of the
favourite traditions of the Ottawa ceremony, when former
soldiers parade past and salute the prime minister and
governor general, followed by troops currently serving in the
Canadian Forces.
Controversy erupted at last year's ceremony when about
25 veterans turned their backs on Jean as a protest against
her perceived support for Quebec separatists. Jean, who
was newly appointed at the time, has pledged her loyalty
to Canada and denied claims she supports separatism.
This year's Silver Cross Mother, Alice Murphy of
Conception Harbour, N.L., made the sign of the cross
as she stood before the soaring granite memorial.
Muphy's son, 26-year-old Cpl. Jamie Murphy, was
killed Jan. 27, 2004, in Kabul when a suicide bomber
jumped onto the hood of his jeep.
In a statement released Saturday morning, Harper said
Remembrance Day is a time to mourn the fallen, but
also to celebrate Canada's proud military traditions.
"Canada has always answered the call to stand up for
freedom, democracy, human rights and rule of law,"
Harper said. "Our commitment to these values is being
tested yet again in Afghanistan, and Canadians are rightly
proud of the work our brave soldiers are doing to help
those less fortunate than us.
Their courage and devotion to duty inspires us all."
Ceremonies will also take place across Canada
throughout the day, honouring the more than 100,000
Canadian soldiers who have been killed in the past 100
years.
An especially sombre Remembrance Day ceremony took
place in Truro, Nova Scotia.
Three soldiers with ties to the town -- Warrant Officer
Frank Mellish, Corporal Christopher Reid and Sergeant
Darcy Tedford -- were killed in Afghanistan in recent weeks.
The mothers of the three men held hands as they
approached the cenotaph to place a wreath.
Ceremonies in Afghanistan
In Afghanistan, Canadian soldiers paid tribute to both
the 42 comrades they have lost since 2002, and those
who sacrificed their lives in past campaigns around the world.
More than 400 Canadian soldiers gathered for a solemn
Remembrance Day ceremony at the main Kandahar airfield
base Saturday, laying a number of wreaths at a memorial
as a bugler played the Last Post.
While the Canadian flag flew at half-mast, soldiers observed
a moment of silence in honour of those who have died.
Meanwhile, during another emotionally-charged ceremony
at a forward operating base in the Panjwaii district of
southern Afghanistan, about 100 soldiers gathered for a
simple but moving ceremony.
The soldiers laid a wreath at a wooden cross, and some
wept as they knelt at the makeshift memorial.
The ceremony was led by a sergeant major from the
second battalion with the Princess Patricia's Light
Canadian Infantry.
He told the soldiers they will get through their mission
if they stay tough, and offered words of remembrance for
the dead.
American forces in Afghanistan also remembered their dead
on Saturday, holding a ceremony at Bagram air base north of
Kabul.
The ceremonies in Afghanistan were only a brief respite
from the reality of war, with troops dealing with the threat
of suicide attacks and Taliban ambushes on a daily basis.
This year has been especially difficult for Canadian soldiers,
with 34 killed in Afghanistan. Since 2002, 42 Canadian
soldiers and one diplomat have died while serving in
Afghanistan.

Slain U.S. sailor tried to end fight
An American sailor killed during an early morning bar brawl in
Halifax was a "Good Samaritan" trying to break up a fight he
wasn't even involved in, police said Sunday.
Damon Crooks, 28, of Jacksonville, Fla., was stabbed early
Saturday outside a downtown club after a fight that began
inside spilled onto the street.
Cory Wright, 23, of Halifax, was charged Sunday with
first-degree murder. Two other local men face lesser charges.
Crooks and at least one other sailor, who was taken to a
hospital with minor injuries, apparently tried to break up
a fight that escalated into a brawl involving about 20 people,
said police spokeswoman Theresa Brien.
Brien said police don't think the two seamen were targeted
because they were American sailors.
She said there were other U.S. sailors at the scene, although
it wasn't clear whether any of the Americans involved
were in uniform at the time.
"There was a disturbance unrelated to the American
sailors, where a local individual was being assaulted,"
Brien said. "It looks like the American sailors attempted
to intervene as Good Samaritans, at which point the
disturbance escalated."
Crooks was stationed on the USS Doyle, one of two
American naval vessels in Halifax to take part in exercises
with the Canadian navy.
US sailor slain........
Updated Sat. Nov. 4 2006 11:51 PM ET
CTV.ca News Staff
Six people were arrested and questioned in Halifax early Saturday
after an American sailor was stabbed to death outside a downtown
night spot.
No one has been charged in the slaying.
Police were called around 4 a.m. after a fight that broke out
inside a club moved out onto the street.
About 20 people were involved in the fight, police said.
The 28-year-old sailor, who has not been identified, was found
stabbed on the street.
"He was transported to hospital where he was pronounced dead,"
police spokeswoman Theresa Brien told CTV News.
An autopsy is scheduled for Saturday.
"There was another American sailor that received a minor
injury to his foot," Brien said.
The other sailor was treated in hospital and is in fair condition.
The crime scene is in a part of the city with active night life that
is known for increasing acts of random violence.
Police are trying to determine if this homicide was random.
Six people have been arrested and are being interrogated.
"Police were able to identify and stop a suspect vehicle, at which
point one person bailed from the vehicle and fled on foot,"
Brien said.
"Patrol officers as well as our canine unit assisted with the
arrest of that individual and four other passengers were
also apprehended at that time," said Brien.
The four people who stayed in the vehicle were arrested
and held for questioning.
A sixth person was arrested for obstruction.
Police said he interfered with investigators as they chased
the subject fleeing on foot.
Two American ships, U.S.S. Doyle and U.S.S. Gunston Hall,
are in Halifax for joint U.S.-Canada naval training exercises
that began Friday.
American navy officials said they would not comment until
the family of the deceased has been notified.
A lot of the sailors were out on the town Saturday night,
residents said.
Some locals said the boisterous night-time partying makes
them nervous.
"It does make me a little nervous walking around the
streets alone," said Richard Moller.
"It's kind of overwhelming ... because we saw them at lower
deck before," said Jennifer Normina.
"They were all out there partying and it's a little scary."
"This really upsets me," said Bonita Aalders. "
Halifax is a fairly small town and people are usually very
good to one another and this bothers me a lot."

YES CANADA SUPPORTS ITS MILITARY!!!!!
Hundreds brave biting wind to cheer on wounded soldiers
home from Kandahar-
JIM MACDONALD
Canadian Press
EDMONTON -- An army medic whose legs were amputated
after his convoy was hit by a suicide bomber says the
first Edmonton rally for Canadian troops in Afghanistan
made him proud to be a soldier.
"Years ago we didn't have this support,"
Master Corporal Paul Franklin told more than 300 people
who stood for an hour in freezing wind yesterday. "
But now when you go on missions you don't even have to
think about how Canadians support us.
"We know. It's a given.".......
.........
Colonel Jon Vance said the images of yesterday's rally
would be viewed immediately by Canadians deployed
in Afghanistan and the reaction would be gratitude and
a firming of their resolve.
"You are telling your soldiers today that
Canada is worth fighting for, and for a soldier,
it just doesn't get any better than that,"
Col. Vance told the cheering crowd, many of them
wearing poppies or yellow ribbons.
"Your soldiers don't crave pity.
They don't want you to fear for them.
They need your love and unwavering support."
Several soldiers in camouflage uniforms stood among
the crowd, and at one point an elderly man shook hands
with about a dozen of them.
Trooper Justin D'Angelo, 24, later said he was delighted
when the man approached them.
"It gives you a warm feeling"
said Trooper D'Angelo, who is waiting to be deployed.
"You don't really know what people are thinking and
actions like that, it's great."
The rally outside City Hall is the first of what organizers
promise will be weekly demonstrations dubbed
Red Fridays, a name taken from similar rallies in the
United States.
THANK YOU!!!!!!

Domestic violence rattles B.C.
VANCOUVER—Three violent assaults in British Columbia against
South Asian women have rallied the community, victims and a
prominent politician into calling for action to fight domestic
violence among Indo-Canadians.
"The starting point is to have a discussion and to admit that we
have a problem," said B.C. Attorney General Wally Oppal, an
Indo-Canadian.
He said the word needs to get out to South Asians that this kind
of violence is not acceptable and help is available.
On Oct. 20, Gurjeet Kaur Ghuman, a Coquitlam nurse, was
riding in a car with her estranged husband.
He shot her in the head, then killed himself.
She's in serious condition in hospital.
Days later, the burned body of Manjit Panghali, four months
pregnant, was found in suburban Delta.
No one has been arrested in her death.
Last Sunday, Navreet Waraich, mother of a 4-month-old
boy, was stabbed to death. Her husband Jatinder has
been arrested and charged with second-degree murder.

FOR THE WANTS AND NEEDS OF MUSLIMS
IF THEY WANT RESPECT THEY MUST RESPECT
OUR LAWS AND VALUES ....

Quit Afghan mission or endure attack like 9/11, threat
says
Stewart Bell
National Post
Saturday, October 28, 2006
OTTAWA - An al-Qaeda strategist has warned Canada
to withdraw its troops from Afghanistan or face terrorist
attacks similar to 9/11, Madrid and the London transit
bombings.
The threat, attributed to a member of the al-Qaeda
information and strategy committee, condemns
Prime Minister Stephen Harper for refusing to pull out
of Afghanistan.
It also refers to Canada's "fanatic adherence to
Christianity" as well as its purported attempts to "damage
the Muslims" and its support for the "Christian Crusade"
against al-Qaeda.
"Despite the strong, increasing opposition to spread
its forces in the fire of South Afghanistan, it seems
that they will not learn the lesson easily," Hossam
Abdul Raouf writes.
"They will either be forced to withdraw their forces
or face an operation similar to New York, Madrid,
London and their sisters, with the help of Allah."
The document, written in July, was obtained and
translated by the SITE Institute, a U.S. non-profit
group that monitors terrorist Web sites for clients,
many of them in government.
It is the second reference in recent weeks to al-Qaeda
singling out Canada because of its role in Afghanistan.
Last month, Osama bin Laden's deputy, Ayman
Al-Zawahiri, referred to Canadian troops in
Kandahar as "second-rate Crusaders."
The increasing focus on Canada in jihadist propaganda
follows last June's arrest of 17 terrorist suspects in
Toronto and comes as Canada is debating its role in
NATO-led combat operations in southern Afghanistan.
The text of the threat suggests that al-Qaeda is
aware of divisions within Canada over the mission,
pointing to public opinion polls and opposition within
Parliament.
It is also consistent with analysis by Canadian
intelligence officials who report that al-Qaeda views
Canada as a "priority target" because of the country's
high-profile role in Afghanistan and its close relationship
with the United States in the war on terrorism.
"Despite the differences between the Canadian foreign
policy and its U.S. counterpart, and despite the hatred
the Canadian people harbour towards the Americans
-- their bad neighbours who cannot hold back their
damage from them -- they agree with them regarding
leading the Christian Crusade in Afghanistan and
confronting al-Qaeda there," it says.
"They use the same excuses that are used by the
British and others.
Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said:
'The Canadians learned from the 9/11 attacks against
the U.S. that a terrorist threat can enter into our
private borders.
The Afghani government wants us there, and we are
fighting a truly abominable enemy.
This is in our national interest.
I believe that what we are doing is extraordinary.
We will take a commanding role in the province of Kandahar.' "
The suspected "homegrown"
Canadian extremists arrested by the RCMP in Toronto
on June 2 were allegedly motivated partly by
their anger over Afghanistan.
Authorities claim they intended to take hostages
on Parliament Hill and kill the Prime Minister unless
he withdrew troops from Afghanistan and released
all Muslims from Canadian prisons.
The new threat claims Canada is only in Afghanistan
to assert itself on the global stage for economic and
religious reasons.
"Its fanatic adherence to Christianity makes it rush
to the financial aid of any issue that will damage the
Muslims and strengthen their enemies," the 66-page
document claims.
Rita Katz, director of the SITE Institute, said not much
was known about the author of the document, Hossam
Abdul Raouf, except that he is described as a member
of al-Qaeda's information and strategy committee and
editor of the electronic periodical Vanguards of Kharasan.
"Abdul Raouf seems to be very knowledgeable in
understanding the Western strategy, and in data mining,
as demonstrated greatly in this publication," she said.
The threat was posted on Arabic-language jihadist Web
forums commonly used to disseminate al-Qaeda-related
training and propaganda materials.
At a conference yesterday, Jim Judd, director of the
Canadian Security Intelligence Service, said the
Internet had "assumed enormous importance" among
today's terrorists.
"It has in some respects been transformed into a
terrorist university, obviating the past need for travel
to a conflict zone for 'on-the-job training.' "
He said successful attacks are videotaped and
transmitted online and recipes for bombs made of
commercially available ingredients are on the
Internet as well as tips on what to do when arrested.
"It is, as well, developing into a medium of
radicalization for many who are inspired by a variety
of propaganda tools flowing across it. Inspirational
rallying cries from far-flung proponents of terrorism
or videos of attacks on military forces in Iraq and
Afghanistan and elsewhere circulate freely."
The "ideology of al-Qaeda" remains today's principal
terrorist threat, he said, adding last August's plots to
bomb passenger planes over the Atlantic are a
"dramatic reminder" that terrorists remain capable
of mounting attacks on the scale of 9/11.
Speaking at the Canadian Association of Security and
Intelligence Studies conference in Ottawa, the
intelligence chief said that because of the cross-border
nature of the threat, CSIS needs to ramp up its
operations overseas.
"While we have had personnel operating abroad for
some time, it is obvious that we need to further
build our capacity to function outside Canada more
effectively," Mr. Judd said.
Sir Richard Dearlove, who served as chief of the
British Secret Intelligence Service until 2004,
urged Canada to set up a foreign intelligence
agency within the next decade.
Although Canada does not have a foreign spy
service, CSIS is allowed to collect national security
intelligence overseas and has been increasingly
active abroad, in countries such as Afghanistan.

THE ARUBIAN INVESTIGATION CLOUD....

HMMMMM..........
When the Kalpoe brothers and
Van der Sloot were released from
custody in September 2005, then
-Police Chief Gerold Dompig was
still certain they were involved in
Natalee's disappearance, telling
AMW, "I have a gut feeling that
they're guilty...either it's murder,
or an accident, or rape...but something happened, and they were
surely involved."
Police Chief Gerold Dompig as all the police investigators
of this case last at the most a couple of months.

Story with a TWIST!!!

Bodies may be couple missing
for 50 years
The Canadian Press(Oct 23, 2006)
Joan Van Mierlo long ago gave up any hope
of knowing what happened to her parents
who vanished half a century ago while out boating at the
family's cottage.
Now it has all come back.
OPP divers have found a boat, outboard motor and
human remains 26 metres below the surface of Trout
Lake, a few kilometres east of the family's hometown of
North Bay.
Recent media reports revisiting the disappearance of Allan
and Margaret Campbell on May 29, 1956, spawned
new tips that aided the search.
"After all this time ... it's such a surreal kind of thing,"
Van Mierlo said from her home in Winnipeg.
"People keep using that word 'closure,'" she said.
"Right now it feels like a reopening of something very
painful.
Eventually this is going to be a wonderful thing for
me, but right now I'm going to deal with it one
day at a time."
The youngest of four daughters, Van Mierlo,
now 60, was just 10 when her parents went
missing.
She went to live with her eldest sister who was
married with her own children at the time.
Van Mierlo was young enough to be shielded from
the many rumours that swirled around the
small community:
Did her parents drown?
Was it an accident or murder?
Or did they simply abandon their family?
The remains must still be tested and positively
identified.
But police said the exact cause of the accident
may never be known.

Convicted Sex Offender Chooses Canadian Exile Over Jail
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Jail or Canada? Malcolm Watson chose
Canada.
In an unusual sentence that has immigration lawyers
questioning its legality, the U.S. citizen has agreed to stay
out of the United States for the next three years as
punishment for having sex with a 15-year-old female
student.
The exile starts Monday for the 35-year-old former
Buffalo Seminary teacher, who was arrested in April
after a mall security guard noticed him and the girl
sitting in a parked car for two hours.
Erie County District Attorney Frank Clark called the
plea deal "a little dicey" but said the girl's family was
happy with it.
Under the sentence for sexual abuse imposed by
Cheektowaga Town Court, Watson can enter the
United States only to report to his probation officer.
Watson already lives across the border in Fort Erie,
Ontario, with his Canadian wife and three children.
But exiling a citizen is unheard of, said
Robert Kolken, a Buffalo immigration lawyer.
"I don't see how a judge sitting in a criminal court
in the U.S can lawfully banish a citizen as a condition
of sentencing," he said.
Cheektowaga Justice Thomas Kolbert could not
be reached for comment.
Another immigration lawyer, Robert Berger, warned
that Watson could be barred from entering Canada
because of his new criminal record.
Even Watson's lawyer, Oscar Smukler, said he was
surprised by the deal.
"We did some research on the question of whether
Canada might consider throwing [Watson] out, which
would make him a man without a country," Smukler
said.
The alternative sentence?
As much as a year behind bars.

WHERE IS NATALEE HOLLOWAY?
Natalee Ann Holloway had just graduated from Mountain Brook High School in Birmingham, Ala. She was looking forward to attending the University of Alabama on a full academic scholarship.
On an unofficial annual senior trip Natalee and approximately 130 of her classmates ventured thousands of miles away to enjoy the white sands and blue waters of Aruba.
For five days the recent graduates and seven chaperones relaxed, sun bathed and enjoyed the Aruba nightlife.
Dressed in the same blue and green striped low-cut blouse and jean miniskirt that she wore at the beach earlier in the day, Holloway spent Sunday evening partying at Carlos 'N Charlie's, a popular restaurant and dance spot where tourists and locals meet in the Aruban capital, Oranjestad.
Monday morning, May 31, 2005 when the rest of the group gathered to catch their flight, Natalee was no where to be found.
Carlos N' Charlie's master of ceremonies, Jose Hernandez, saw Natalee leave about 10 minutes before the restaurant's 1 a.m. closing. He reports that nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Meanwhile, some of Natalee's friends say they saw her getting into a vehicle outside the nightclub.

CANADA'S HAS A TRUE LEADER AT LAST!
But peaceful end to conflict urged Tempers
stancein Toronto speech
Oct. 19, 2006. 01:00 AM
LES WHITTINGTON
OTTAWA BUREAU
Prime Minister Stephen Harper came to Toronto last night to
reaffirm his unwavering support for Israel, saying Canada
must stand firm against the enemies of the Jewish state.
But in an apparent attempt to moderate his position on
Middle East issues, Harper took time in a speech to leaders
of the Jewish community to stress the need for a peaceful
solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict.
And far from repeating his accusations that the Liberals
are anti-Israel, the Prime Minister said it's not hard to see
how opposition politicians would be critical of the
Conservatives' strong support of Israel's actions during
last summer's eruption of violence in the region.
It was a different approach than the one Harper took last
week, when he said Liberal leadership candidate
Michael Ignatieff's suggestion that the Israeli military had
committed a war crime during its attack on Lebanon
was typical of that party's negative attitude toward Israel.
"I understand that, with the news reports of the day, in
the sound of battle and the images of destruction and
suffering of innocents, it is sometimes difficult to see
what is truly at stake," he said during a dinner speech
to B'nai Brith Canada.
In what an aide said was a fresh attempt by the
Prime Minister to focus on the need for peace in the
Middle East, Harper said it's vital to "seek a fair and
just future for the Palestinian people."
"Our government believes in a two-state solution — in
a secure, democratic and prosperous Israel living beside
a viable, democratic and peaceful Palestinian state."
Harper's unstinting support of Israel has won new
backing for the federal Tories among otherwise staunch
Liberals. But he has been subjected to sharp criticism
by opponents who say he has abandoned Canada's
traditional role as a neutral peace broker in the
Middle East and played politics with a dangerously
divisive issue in Canada.
Some observers believe discontent with Harper's foreign
policies, particularly among Quebecers, has been partly
responsible for the Conservatives' inability to show
growth in national opinion polls recently.
But while seeking to temper his Middle East position,
Harper left no doubt that the Conservative government
is solidly behind Israel.
Though saying he understood why Canadians worried
during the fighting in Israel and Lebanon last summer
that the Tories were unduly favouring Israel, Harper
added that it would be a mistake not to stand firmly
behind the Israelis.
Alluding to the rise of Nazi Germany, the
Prime Minister said it must be remembered "that those
who seek to destroy the Jews will, for the same
reason, ultimately seek to destroy us all."
He said Hezbollah, which touched off last summer's war
by kidnapping Israeli soldiers, is a terrorist organization
and as such will be opposed by Canada as part of its
wider campaign against terrorists abroad and at home.
"We are fighting terrorists in Afghanistan. We have
arrested alleged terrorists here in Toronto.
"Therefore, it is very straightforward," Harper said
forcefully. "When it comes to dealing with a war between
Israel and a terrorist organization, this country, and this
government, cannot and will not be neutral."
The remark drew a standing ovation from the audience
of more than a thousand corporate executives, political
figures — including the master-of-ceremonies, former
Liberal premier David Peterson — and Jewish
community leaders.
The audience also applauded intensely when Harper
stressed the need to find a peaceful solution to Middle
East tensions.

ONTARIO TACKLES DATE RAPE DRUG!
Patrons can take alcohol to washrooms
Goal is to stop spiking drinks with drugs
Oct. 17, 2006. 05:46 AM
ROB FERGUSON
QUEEN'S PARK BUREAU
She's not crazy about taking her drink into a nightclub
washroom to prevent it from being spiked with a date
rape drug.
But Theresa Palumbo is glad that option could soon be
legal under proposed reforms that would modernize
Ontario liquor laws dating to 1944.
"It's probably a good idea because date rape is very
serious," the Ryerson University student said yesterday
after Government Services Minister Gerry Phillips
unveiled the changes at a campus pub.
The big question is: Where's a young woman to put her
drink given the sanitary state of some bar bathrooms?
"People find it gross to bring drinks into the bathroom
anyway, so I don't know," said Palumbo, in her second
year of graphic arts management.
Phillips said the reforms, to be detailed in legislation
coming Thursday, are designed to be
more "consumer friendly" and would also:
Make it legal to stroll through a winery's vineyards
with a glass of the grape.
Permit makers of beer, wine and liquor to sell samples
of their drinks for a nominal fee on their premises.
Increase scrutiny for restaurants and bars seeking
liquor licences.
Allow pilot projects in which charity bingo
halls — hard hit by the government's tough new
anti-tobacco act that prohibits smoking in indoor
public places — could sell alcoholic drinks as a way
of boosting revenues.
Help is needed, but Ian Edward, executive director
of the Toronto Kiwanis Boys and Girls Club, said he's
not convinced booze at bingo is going to provide that
help given that about 70 per cent of regular clients
were smokers.
The changes aimed at reducing date rape emerged
as the "number one" issue during months of
consultations with the hospitality industry, police
and other interested parties, said Phillips.
But bars and clubs must apply to have their liquor
licences changed to permit drinks in washrooms,
he added. Government officials did not know how much
that might cost or how long it would take.
"We certainly hope there wouldn't be any cost associated
with it," said Michael Ferrabee of the
Canadian Restaurant and Food Services Association,
which has been pressing for this change for years.
It's "completely ridiculous" to have to tell people,
especially women, not to take drinks into a washroom
given the risks of leaving drinks unattended, said
co-owner David Stearn of Rivoli, a popular club.
"We didn't feel comfortable insisting," added Stearn,
who added he's never heard of any date rape
incidents perpetrated at Rivoli.
As the law now stands, it's illegal to take drinks out
of a licensed room at a bar and go into hallways or
stairwells to washrooms. That would no longer be
the case if the legislation were passed.
"Patrons will never have to leave their drinks
unattended and risk someone slipping them
drugs," said Phillips.
"As society changes, so does criminal behaviour...
Times change and we have to change with the times."
Many bars and clubs place tables outside the
washrooms to patrons to place their drinks on.
"I don't know if I would leave my drink out," said a
bartender at Big Bop on Queen St. W. "If there's a
crazy kid out there, it's easy to do something."
British Columbia has allowed bar patrons to take
drinks into washrooms for four years, said government
officials, who did not have any statistics on the
prevalence of date rape.
But recent studies have shown it is an under-reported
crime because women are embarrassed or don't
realize what's happened soon enough.
Date rape drugs can be metabolized in as little
as 12 hours, leaving no traces in the bloodstream.
If the government wants to put a bigger dent in
date rape, it needs to do more than allow women
to take their drinks into bar washrooms, observers
said.
That means more public education for young men
and women about booze and how it can impact
judgment, said Caroline Rabbat, manager of the
community safety office at the University of Toronto.
She applauded the change aimed at reducing the
odds of drinks being spiked with date rape drugs
but noted: "Alcohol itself is still the date rape
drug of choice."
University of Toronto student Vincenza Mazzeo, 22,
told the Star's Phinjo Gombu that the government
proposal was only a "partial solution."
"The law can only work to a certain extent," said
Mazzeo, who was having a drink last night with a
friend at the Madison Avenue Pub near Bloor St. W.
and Spadina Ave. "After that it's up to the individual
to ensure that the drink is not spiked.
"You yourself need to make choices that ensure
you are not putting yourself in harm's way.
That would be not leaving your drink unattended
and making sure you are aware of where it is and
who is in your space at all times."
Aimee Garrett, 23, a human resources assistant
heading into a pub last night with two friends,
said the proposed law simply legitimized what she
always does.
"It's a good idea because I bring my drink to the
washroom regardless, so now I don't have to
hide it," said Garrett.
When it comes to where patrons could comfortably
place their drinks in washrooms, it will be up to
bars and clubs to provide suitable facilities.
"We'll most likely have more attendants in the
washrooms," said Nick Di Dinato, chief executive
of Liberty Entertainment Group, which owns clubs
including the Crystal Room, Phoenix Concert Theatre
and Courthouse Chamber Lounge.
Many bars will have to clean up their act, said
New Democrat Peter Kormos.
"Let's be frank. Taking your drink into the restrooms
of most of these pubs and taverns is in and of
itself is a pretty noxious proposition."
In the meantime, Palumbo, the Ryerson student, and
her classmate, Lara Deveci, are playing it safe.
"My parents always say don't leave your drink
unattended. I wouldn't let a stranger get me a
drink," said Deveci.
Palumbo said she usually finishes her drink before
going to the washroom unless she's with "close
friends, not just someone I've known for a month."

Cory Lidle dies in Fiery crash!!

Small plane crashes into New York building
Updated Wed. Oct. 11 2006 3:27 PM ET
CTV.ca News Staff
A small plane has crashed into a building in Manhattan, say
emergency officials. However, earlier reports have said it
was a helicopter.
There is no information yet on deaths or injuries in the
incident, which occurred just before 3 p.m. EDT on
Wednesday.
Officials are saying there is no reason to believe the incident
is terrorism-related.
The location is being described as a residential building
on New York's Upper East Side. The 50-storey
building -- the Belaire, where many of the apartments
sell for more than US$1 million -- is close to the
East River.
The impact point appears to be the 20th floor.
Television images from CNN show smoke rising from a
building. Flames engulfed four apartments at one point,
but firefighters successfully fought them.
No helicopter wreckage was visible.
However, there are burn marks on the building below
where the fires are burning.
"It looks as if the aircraft didn't go into the building, it
fell down," Sarah Steiner, who lives about a block
from the building that was hit, told CNN.
The streets below are packed with emergency vehicles.
While it's a cloudy day in New York, weather reports
indicate there is about 16 kilometres of visibility
before the cloud deck.
More to come ...

about the hijacking but preparations for the trip were still
going ahead.
Brindisi airport in southern Italy, where the Turkish Airlines
plane, carrying 107 passengers and six crew, landed after
being escorted down by Italian jets, was immediately
closed. Italian police said they had begun negotiations
with two Turkish citizens who they said had hijacked the
plane.
"We're starting negotiations," said the head of Brindisi
aviation police, adding that the airliner was on the airport

THEY KNOW THE TRUTH....

WHERE ARE THERE NOW?
Has Joran Van de Sloot given up his destructive
lifestyle?
Has Paulos Van de Sloot regretted not telling the
truth upfront?
Has Steve Croes compulsive lying condition
gone away?
Has Deepak Kalpoe grown up and able to look
people in their eyes?
Has Satish Kalpoe realised we know he knows
what happened to Natalee?
All these questions unanswered.
The story will never go away
YOUR FACES WILL HAUNT YOU 4EVER.
ARUBA'S NEXT MOVE.....

An Alabama teen Natalee Holloway went missing in
Aruba on May 30, 2005, during a vacation with
classmates to celebrate her recent high school
graduation.
Practically the whole island have been questioned
in the 18-year-old disappearance, no one has been
formally charged.
The interesting thing is that through the mazes of
relatives of the suspects and good friends, they all lead
back to the ALE,
The wild and strange moves by the Island to make
this story disappear has been in the works from
DAY1.
News emerge ie.
Body found...
Boy admits to murder...
Clothes found...
Arm found...
Mattress found with blood...
And later extracted with a strange explanation.
Well I for one can reconize a coverup done in the
worst way. STUPIDLY
In a couple of months ARUBA will attempt to
clear the favoured 3....
BUT WE ARE ON TO YOU ARUBA!!!!!
This story will continue to destroy the lives of the
people of interest til they are men enough to tell the
truth of what happened that fateful night.
The horrors of what Natalee faced can only
be imagined by us all.
The worse part is there was no natalee to bring
home for her parents to put her to rest.
Zarina has forseen Aruba's next move.
