Best Answer

an American charged with treason for working with al Qaeda had been captured, a development that could deliver another significant blow in the U.S.-led battle against the terror network.

U.S. defense, intelligence and law enforcement officials could not immediately verify the reported detention of Adam Gadahn, a 31-year-old spokesman for al Qaeda who has appeared on videos threatening the West, including one that emerged earlier Sunday.

President Obama should immediately press Pakistan to release Gadahn to American authorities and transport him to Super Max prison in Colorado until he is tried for treason.

The charge is treason.

Why they attack The World Trade Center?

Alqaeda, a terrorist organisation lead by Osama Bin Laden, officially instigated the attacks. This was done to "punish" the American people for the US government's numerous crimes and interferances in the Muslim world. However, there is a sheer mass of evidence suggesting that the attacks were an inside job, instigated by the US government itself.


Why is the war on terror centred around Afghanistan?

The terrorist group Al-Qaeda has major links to the Taliban government who were in power in Afghanistan. However, Afghanistan is not the only country to be "invaded" as a result of the war on terror; Iraq was also liberated from Saddam Hussein. The main reason, is because the AlQaeda (a terrorist group) targeted our twin towers, and other high authority buildings, and so we retaliate. It wouldn't be centered around Afghanistan if the terrorist group weren't there.


Are afghans nice people?

Since Afghanistan is made of different ethnic groups, most of them are good people but one majority ethnic group that is called Pashtoons, and most these people are very bad. They have been ruling Afghanistan over a century, whenever you read the history of Afghanistan, during their kingdom you will see that they haven't done anything but distruction. They are Talibs, they are Alqaeda and currently Karzai (who is pashtoon) has made a corrupt government. He commited fraud in both presedential and parlimentry election. But one thing I want to emphasize is that not all Afghans are bad people.


Why does everyone think that Muslims are terrorist?

It seems like a trivializing term for something so terrible, but terrorism is something of a fan among Muslims. This is not to say the it's universally adopted by them, nor that no other group uses it; however, whereas when Irish thugs kill old men and children, as the IRA did in the bombing of Lord Mountbatten's yacht, or a renegade group of Amish start attacking their political adversaries, there is prompt and widespread condemnation from members of the terrorists' own societies, in Islamic countries, terrorists are often looked upon as heroes: governments pay their families huge bonuses; mothers name their newborns after them; the pictures are displayed in parades and their suicide tapes are endlessly replayed. Just as negative stereotypes in the West (drug dealers, pimps, con men) are embraced by some minorities, the idea of being a terrorist (which they call a "martyr") is attractive to many Muslims who see it as a path to revenge for Western slights real and imagined, glory and fame, and, of course, the various sensual delights promised by Mohammed for those in martyrs' paradise.

If you want more information on Jihad Warlord Abdulah Makarious please read his biography in the next passage. I was born in Egypt. I love to ride camels. My best friend is George, we met in primary school, he was the smartest in my class. George has two front legs and two back legs, he has yellow fur. I wish I had yellow fur. George can go for a long time without water, we often have competitions, I always lose. In the desert George rides me around, we go every where. When I'm tired there will always be a cactus around for me to drink, cactus is my favorite fruit. I raped George and now he dosen't like me any more.

Who is most at risk to getting asthma?

Hi Brother,What is asthma?Asthma is a long-lasting (chronic) disease of the lungs and airways (bronchi) that affects 5 people in every 100. In children, this figure is higher and rising.Asthma is characterised by attacks of breathlessness, tight chest, wheezing and coughing which are caused by the airways becoming narrowed and inflamed. Some people may have these symptoms all of the time and others may be normal between attacks.How do you get asthma?Asthma can arise at any age, but why some people have the disease and others don't is not known. People with asthma have airways that are more sensitive than normal. Doctors know, however, that asthma can sometimes run in families.Asthma attacks can be set off by many different things, these are called triggers. Examples include cold air, vigorous exercise and stress.These triggers may also include 'allergens'. These are present in the environment and contain chemicals that trigger allergic reactions.Allergens include, for example, pollen, animal danders, house dust, pollution, some foods, perfumes and cigarette smoke.Allergens cause the lining of the airways to become swollen and inflamed. It produces extra mucus and the muscles of the airways tighten. There is then less room for the air to pass in and out.Attacks may be more frequent or severe in people who have a chest infection.
