«КАВКАЗСКИЙ ДЖИХАД» - Главная. Uzbek Terror Networks: Germany, Jamoat and the IJU - The Jamesto. Publication: Terrorism Monitor Volume: 5 Issue: 21 November 8, 2007 05:58 PM Age: 7 yrs Category: Terrorism Monitor, Central Asia, Europe Three months after the arrests of three men in Germany, little is known about the network involved or the reasons behind a plot to use “massive bomb attacks” against targets in Germany. Reports immediately after the arrests pointed toward a U.S. airbase, nightclubs and the airport at Frankfurt as targets the plotters had considered. More recently, reports have indicated that the men intended to strike at both the U.S. and Uzbek Embassies in Germany.

Of course, the list of potential targets implies that the cell aimed to kill and maim civilians in a series of spectacular attacks, which have the hallmark of an al-Qaeda-inspired campaign. Elsewhere, German newspapers have begun to unfold a U.S. intelligence operation code-named “Alberich,” which led to the arrests in Sauerland, some 60 miles east of Düsseldorf. Jamoat: From the IMU to the IJU. 35 killed in attacks against civilians in Baghdad - The Long War. The Baghdad area was hit with the third major attack in four days as bombs were detonated in residential areas of the capital, killing 35 Iraqis and wounding scores more. Terrorists planted bombs inside homes and apartment complexes in the Baghdad neighborhoods of Al Shula, Jakook, Allawi, Al Shurta Al Khamisa, and Al Aamel, Voices of Iraq reported.

Most of the blasts took place in predominately Shia neighborhoods, although Allawi is a mixed Sunni and Shia neighborhood. At least seven blasts were reported, while bomb disposal teams defused two devices. Thirty-five Iraqis have been killed and more than 140 have been wounded, an anonymous Interior Ministry official told Voices of Iraq. Today's attacks follow the coordinated attacks on embassies in Baghdad on April 4 and a raid on a village in Baghdad province on April 3. Al Qaeda in Iraq has been at the vanguard of sectarian attacks against both Sunni and Shia, and almost succeeded in plunging Iraqi into a civil war in 2006. KavkazChat.
