This PBS 'Frontline' schlockumentary outlined the internal struggle betwen Vice President Cheney and CIA director George Tenet with regard to the war on terror. Remember now, Tenet was the boss of Valerie Plame and Tenet sent Joe Wilson to Niger. Vice President Cheney didn't like this, and instructed his Chief of Staff, Scooter Libby to out Plame (and by consequence, Tenet). Before Bush uttered "the 16 words" of the 2003 State of the Union address referring to bogus Iraqi yellowcake uranium (check out [http://tinyurl.com/rayjg] and see the 323,000,000 hits for "the 16 words," that's three hundred twenty three million), based on 'Curveball's' claims that Colin Powell now embarassingly acknowledges he presented before the United Nations, citing aluminum tubing and bio-weapons (that now turn out not to have existed) just 3 weeks prior to the US invasion of Iraq ... all makes for an interesting lesson in contemporary American politics. Seems the duties formerly entrusted to the CIA have now been shifted to the Pentagon. Anyone else see this program?

DF Captures Murderers of Eliyahu Asheri in Ramallah

13:11 Jul 04, '06 / 8 Tammuz 5766

by Hillel Fendel

In a midnight operation, the IDF surrounded a police station in Ramallah and threatened to destroy it - unless the terrorists inside gave themselves up. After a few hours, they did.

The three Arabs who were thus caught - the murderers of 18-year-old Eliyahu Asheri last week - are: Bassam Artiya, 34, from the Omeri slums near Ramallah; Hamsa Taktouk, 22, of Ramallah; and Ayham Kamamji, 20, also of Ramallah. The three are members of the Al-Aksa Brigades of Fatah, and served in the Palestinian Authority's security services.

The General Security Service, which permitted the publications of their names several hours after they were apprehended, announced that Taktouk had attempted to carry out a suicide bombing three months ago, and that Artiya had been instrumental in the smuggling of weapons from Gaza to Judea/Samaria.

The three apparently abducted Eliyahu Asheri, a resident of Itamar, as he waited for a ride outside Ofrah, north of Jerusalem, on Sunday night, June 25. He was abducted only hours after the murderous attack in which two soldiers were killed and one was kidnapped in Kerem Shalom. Asheri was taken to Ramallah and murdered with a gunshot to his head shortly afterwards.

if only sun-tzu's "the art of war" had pictures of little animals.
