Israel Unleashed Virus to Hit Iranian Nuke Plants PDF Print E-mail

Iranian officials admitted Sunday that they had uncovered evidence of the Duqu computer virus -- labeled "Son of Stuxnet" by cyber experts -- at the Islamic Republic's nuclear sites, state-controlled IRNA news agency reported.

"We are in the initial phase of fighting the Duqu virus," Gholamreza Jalali, was quoted as saying. "The final report which says which organizations the virus has spread to and what its impacts are has not been completed yet."

The original Stuxnet malware was the culmination of a vast technical and espionage effort that had only one target in mind: the Iranian nuclear program. And is widely believed to be the work of the United States and Israel. Experts who looked at the program were amazed at its ability to penetrate Iran’s secure, highly protected security system and destroy it without being detected.
 
A Private Spy Network Operating in the Mideast PDF Print E-mail
[Article Above From New York Times so be aware of their agenda when reading]

Duane R. Clarridge no longer works with the CIA but runs his own spy network in San Diego.  With long experience in the shadowy world of espionage, Claridge has undertaken to work with government funding or without government funding to undertake operations against a variety of targets in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

•Charles E. Allen, a former top intelligence official at the Department of Homeland Security who worked with Mr. Clarridge at the C.I.A., termed him an “extraordinary” case officer who had operated on “the edge of his skis” in missions abroad years ago.

•Mr. Clarridge declined to be interviewed, but issued a statement that likened his operation, called the Eclipse Group, to the Office of Strategic Services, the C.I.A.’s World War II precursor. “O.S.S. was a success of the past,” he wrote. “Eclipse may possibly be an effective model for the future, providing information to officers and officials of the United States government who have the sole responsibility of acting on it or not.”

 

 
 
Twitter Blocked & Egypt Dictator's Son Flees PDF Print E-mail

In a telling event for the swirling chaos enveloping Cairo, Gamal Mubarak, the dictator's son, has fled Egypt for Britain with his wife and daughter. Inspired by Tunisian riots that caused President Ben-Ali to flee with his wife to Saudi Arabia, a Facebook and Twitter campaign brought thousands of people together.

Over 30,000 protesters gathered in Cairo's Maidan al-Tahrir square to take part in the 'day of anger', the spokesman for Egypt's '6 April' opposition movement, Mohammed Adel, said.

'Police used tear gas and water canon to break up our protest and they arrested 40 of us, but we don't have official figures on the numbers of arrests across Egypt,' said Adel.

Twitter and Facebook brought the campaign about.   When I was in Cairo in '08 for a film, a young girl had started a Facebook campaign protesting the price of flour.   She was jailed for eighteen days I was told.

Egypt's April 6 Movement is the major Facebook group protesting government corruption, nepotism and more.  It has 70,000 members or currently 22,000 Likes on Facebook.  In Arabic, the site has galvanized public sentiment in Egypt.

Although there are countless political Facebook groups in Egypt, many of which flare up and fall into disuse in a matter of days, the one with the most dynamic debates is that of the April 6 Youth Movement, a group of 70,000 mostly young and educated Egyptians, most of whom had never been involved with politics before joining the group. The movement is less than a year old; it formed more or less spontaneously on Facebook last spring around an effort to stage a general nationwide strike. Members coalesce around a few issues — free speech, economic stagnation and government nepotism — and they share their ideas for improving Egypt. But they do more than just chat: they have tried to organize street protests to free jailed journalists, and this month, hundreds of young people from the April 6 group participated in demonstrations about Gaza, some of which were coordinated on Facebook, and at least eight members of the group were detained by police.

Twitter has blocked their account.

 
 
A Coptic Thorn in the Side of Radical Islam: Zakaria Butros PDF Print E-mail
A Courageous man, Zakaria Botros, is changing the course of Middle East politics, history and religion -by examining the Bible and the Koran at the same time.

The result? Mass conversions to Christianity — if clandestine ones. The very public conversion of high-profile Italian journalist Magdi Allam — who was baptized by Pope Benedict in Rome on Saturday — is only the tip of the iceberg. Indeed, Islamic cleric Ahmad al-Qatani stated on al-Jazeera TV a while back that some six million Muslims convert to Christianity annually, many of them persuaded by Botros’s public ministry. More recently, al-Jazeera noted Life TV’s “unprecedented evangelical raid” on the Muslim world. Several factors account for the Botros phenomenon.


How is he doing this?

1.   First, the new media — particularly satellite TV and the Internet (the main conduits for Life TV) — have made it possible for questions about Islam to be made public without fear of reprisal.

2. Secondly, Botros’s broadcasts are in Arabic — the language of some 200 million people, most of them Muslim.

3.  third reason for Botros’s success is that his polemical technique has proven irrefutable. Each of his episodes has a theme — from the pressing to the esoteric — often expressed as a question (e.g., “Is jihad an obligation for all Muslims?”; “Are women inferior to men in Islam?”; “Did Mohammed say that adulterous female monkeys should be stoned?”
 
Yemen Worse Than Libya? PDF Print E-mail
The so-called Arab Spring continues across the Middle East.  Fighting in Libya intensifies with claims that Western ground troops are there or will be soon.

Syria boils with the heinous torture-murder of a 13-year old youth reengergizing the Uprising.  The boy, with bullet holes, cigarette burns and beatings evident, has become a symbol of resistance to the Assad dictatorship.    In Yemen, the clashes between the central government and the tribal outlying areas explodes with twelve or more dead.
