The United States has admitted responsibility for striking a civilian bus
inside Western Iraq but added that Iraqi President Saddam Hussein?s
government bears ultimate responsibility for the episode because of its
non-compliance with UN resolutions, according to a military spokesman at
US Central Command in Doha, Qatar. Five Syrians were killed and 10 were
hurt when a US missile struck the bus in Rutba, western Iraq, as it was
returning to neighboring Syria on Sunday morning, the Syrian Arab News
Agency SANA reported. The bus was carrying 37 Syrians when it was struck
as it drove through Rutba, 160 kilometres (100 miles) from the border, it
said. "Unfortunately yesterday (Sunday) coalition forces destroyed a
civilian bus during targeting of a bridge on the Iraqi side of the Syrian
border," a US military spokesman said in a statement at the coalition's
forward command headquarters in Qatar. "The bridge was in the process of
being hit by munitions when the civilian bus attempted to cross. The bus
stopped on the bridge and was hit by munitions already released prior to
the bus approaching the bridge," he said.

chapter two. who are you?
CAMP AS SAYLIYAH, Qatar The U.S. military has issued a most-wanted list
in the form of a deck of cards, and Saddam Hussein is the ace of spades in
the pack of 55 top figures in his toppled regime. The cards, with
pictures of the most-wanted figures, were distributed to thousands of U.S.
troops in the field to help them find the senior members of the
government. The names also were being put on posters and handbills for
the Iraqi public, Brig. Gen. Vincent Brooks said. Brooks did not
identify those in the deck, except to suggest they included Saddam and his
minister of information, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, who boasted of
battlefield successes right up to the time he disappeared Tuesday. "There
are jokers in this deck, there is no doubt about that," Brooks said. He
said the whereabouts of some of the most-wanted figures were unknown,
while others might well be dead. "The population will probably confirm
that for us," he said. "The key list has 55 individuals who may be
pursued, killed or captured, and the list does not exclude leaders who may
have already been killed or captured," Brooks said. "The intent here is
to help the coalition gain information from the Iraqi people so that they
also know exactly who it is we seek," he added. The U.S. forces have
twice bombed sites where they believe Saddam may have been staying, and
his fate is still unknown. One key figure who British and U.S. officials
believe is dead is Ali Hassan al-Majid, a former Iraqi defense chief known
as "Chemical Ali" for his role in the 1988 chemical weapons attacks on
Iraqi Kurds. Brooks also said that U.S. forces found and destroyed five
small airplanes covered by camouflage along Highway 1 near the northern
city of Tikrit, Saddam's birthplace. The planes, he said, could have been
used for escape or to distribute weapons of mass destruction. They were
located after special forces north of Tikrit got caught up in a firefight
with Iraqi troops, he said. Brooks said there were increasing indications
that regime leaders were trying to flee, including being smuggled out,
flying out or driving out -- and that serious firefights have erupted in
areas where such convoys may have been moving. He noted that special
operations forces had taken the surrender of an Iraqi colonel responsible
for Iraqi checkpoints leading into Syria along highways 10 and 11 in far
western Iraq, and that coalition troops now controlled the crossings.

chapter three. what do you need?
An explosion damaged part of the British Council building in Beirut in the
early hours of this morning. One source claims that a small bomb weighing
about 400 grams, was placed on one of the building's walls. Police said
the explosion caused only light damage. They have begun an investigation.
Security sources, however, said that an unknown assailant had thrown a
stick of dynamite at the British building, located in the Ras Beirut
district in the west of the Lebanese capital. There was a small explosion
in the wall outside the British Council. There was a little damage in the
wall outside, but no-one was hurt,? a British embassy official said. A
Reuters photographer said the blast left a small hole in the pavement and
smoke had blackened the walls. Tuesday morning?s attack was the first on
British assets in Lebanon since the two countries began their invasion of
Iraq. Several heated demonstrations have taken place near the US and
British embassies in Lebanon to protest against the US-led war that began
five days ago. Some of the demonstrations have led to clashes with
security forces. Security has been boosted around the two embassies, as
well as around those of Gulf Arab countries which are hosting US and
British military forces which are attacking Iraq, particularly Kuwait,
Bahrain and Qatar. A bomb has also been thrown at Britain's honorary
consulate in the port city of Guayaquil in Ecuador in what may be a
possible protest against the war in Iraq, officials said today. The
explosive, which caused little damage, was thrown at Britain's honorary
consular offices at about 0430 GMT Monday, a spokesman at the British
embassy in Quito told Reuters. No one was injured in the blast. An
investigation is underway.
our needs are simply: amiga based clone with really fast power pc
processor, 64mbytes of fastram, video acceleration card with at least 8mb
of graphics memory, fast hdd with less than 15 mbytes of free space, ahi
v4+ audio device for full stereo and high quality optimised mp3 playback,
latest version of libraries (most wanted included) and lot of optimism.
of course it works on pegasos. recommended: pegasos with radeon 12400,
256 mb of fastram or wait for divx version (one frame pointless design).
chapter four. who do you know?
Iraqi intelligence agents planned to attack CNN journalists working in
Kurdish-controlled northern Iraq in March, three months after Iraq's
information minister warned of the "severest possible consequences" if CNN
were to send reporters to the region, said CNN's chief news executive,
Eason Jordan. The plot was uncovered by Kurdish police, who arrested two
men who identified themselves as Iraqi intelligence agents. CNN has
obtained videotaped confessions in which the men said their superiors in
Baghdad, Iraq, asked them to blow up a hotel in Erbil where CNN staff were
staying. The men planned to use nearly a ton of explosives in the attack,
but they were arrested before they could carry out the plan. In their
confessions, the men said they had been told that CIA and Israeli agents
were working out of the hotel, using CNN as a cover. Jordan: Iraq
tortured, killed those who helped CNN In an article published in Friday's
editions of The New York Times, Jordan outlined incidents in which Iraqi
officials had intimidated, tortured and killed people who had worked for
CNN or helped the network with its coverage in Iraq. Those incidents have
never before been revealed because they could have put people in jeopardy,
Jordan said. In the mid-1990s, a Iraqi cameraman working for CNN was
abducted, held for weeks and subjected to electroshock torture in a secret
police headquarters when he refused to confirm that Jordan was the CIA
station chief in Iraq, Jordan said. Also, a Kuwaiti woman, Asrar Qabandi,
who had talked to CNN by telephone during Iraq's occupation of her country
in 1990, was captured by Iraqi secret police. On the eve of the U.S.-led
campaign, she was killed, her body torn limb from limb and the body parts
left on the doorstep of her family's home, Jordan said. Jordan also said
that in 1995, Saddam Hussein's son, Uday, had told him that he planned to
assassinate his two brothers-in-law who had defected from Iraq to Jordan.
In addition, Uday said, he planned to kill Jordan's King Hussein, who had
given them asylum. Eason Jordan said he told King Hussein of the plot,
but the king dismissed it as "a madman's rant." The Jordanian monarch was
not harmed, but Uday's brothers-in-law were lured back to Iraq and killed
several months later.

epilogue. what's next?
An al-Jazeera reporter had to be rescued from a crowd of Iraqi Americans
celebrating the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime after they turned on him
and his cameraman. Nezam Mahdawi, Washington correspondent for the
Arabic-language broadcaster, was set upon by angry demonstrators in the
Detroit suburb of Dearborn, where he had travelled to cover the
spontaneous demonstration. Independent Arab television station Al-
Jazeera has reached a deal to transmit its news reports on cable in the
US. The station, one of the most-watched channels in the Arab world, has
come in for fierce criticism for some of its coverage of the war on Iraq.
Critics hit out at its use of images of dead coalition soldiers and
prisoners of war. But others view it as one of the only news channels
which gives a Arab perspective on the fighting. BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN)
Al-Jazeera TV says one of its journalists was killed Tuesday when a U.S.
airstrike hit a building housing Arab media, the Arab network said. The
reporter, identified as Tariq Ayoub, was carried along the street in a
blanket before being placed in the back of an Abu Dhabi TV vehicle and
being rushed off for medical treatment. An Al-Jazeera reporter on-air
said he felt, as did his colleagues, the U.S. strike was a deliberate
attack against the network, since two missiles hit the building, not one,
and that the raid happened at about the same time Abu Dhabi TV offices
were hit.
