Crisis in Turkey: Kurd Terrorists and Corrupt Parties
The arrest of the Kurd leader and presumed terrorist Abdullah Ocalan in Rome has caused a complicated international row involving several European nations, among them the NATO partners Turkey, Italy and Germany as well as Russia. The dispute about Ocalan's destiny has represented to the European public opinion the drama of the Kurd nation divided between four states. Meanwhile in the Turkish parliament in Ankara even this difficult affair couldn't keep the parties from overthrowing the government of the conservative prime minister Mesut Yilmaz. Threatened by the growing strength of the Islamic Fundamentalists Virtue Party, the Turkish democracy risks falling into turmoil once again. The new government of Bulent Ecevit should prepare the country for the next general elections in April, but the Turkish military stands ready to defend its Kemalistic tradition and interests.

Terrorism and Pornography
German police in Hamburg and Berlin recently obtained permission to explore the hard drive on Mohammed Motassadeq's computer as part of the seemingly endless investigation into his links to the 9/11 hijackers. Rather than finding useful data on al-Qaeda, inspectors found a computer full of pornography retrieved from the Internet.

Usamah Bin Mohammad Bin Laden (1957- )
After the initial shock of the attacks on New York and Washington, D.C., and mingled with my tears and prayers for the victims of those tragedies and their loved ones, my thoughts turned to the people who perpetrated those atrocities&#8211;and to the one who allegedly is behind them, if not in planning, then in financing. What made him into the kind of person he is? And, because this is one of my "things," I began to wonder about his childhood. Although there is very little available about his childhood, I have gathered together all I could find for this article. This man is protected by the Afghanistan government. I thought the following site would give you some insight into what kind of government would protect that kind of man. http://www.echonyc.com/~onissues/su98goodwin.html Buried Alive: Afghan Women Under the Taliban

Turkey and Europe: Kurd Terrorist Leader Trapped
The odyssey of the Kurd leader Abdullah Ocalan came to an end when the Turkish secret service kidnapped him on February 16th in Nairobi, Kenya. Reaction of the Kurdish minorities spread all over Europe and the Middle East already caused dozens of victims. European politicians showed themselves very concerned about the disorders and the risks of the forthcoming trial, which could end with a death penalty and the execution of the Kurd leader. Meanwhile in Ankara, prime minister Bulent Ecevit has bettered his prospects for the forthcoming elections in April. But after the elections Turkey's leaders would be wise to be lenient with their prominent prisoner.
