Paper: Europol Questions Bin Laden Role in Attacks

http://abcnews.go.com/wire/World/reuters20010915_298.html

LONDON (Reuters) - The head of the European Union's law enforcement arm
warned on Saturday against rushing to blame the Saudi-born militant Osama
bin Laden for masterminding Tuesday's attacks on New York and Washington.
Juergen Storbeck, the director of pan-European police force Europol, told
the Daily Telegraph newspaper that a wide ranging investigation was
required to avoid bringing the wrong people to account.

"It's possible that he (bin Laden) was informed about the operation, it's
even possible that he influenced it, but he's probably not the man who
steered every action or controlled the detailed plan," Storbeck said.

"As for the idea that, sitting in Afghanistan, he could have controlled
the last phase of the operation is something we should not accept without
a lot of doubt," he said.

"Bin Laden is not the automatic leader of every terrorist act carried out
in the name of Islam."

U.S. president George W. Bush on Saturday singled out bin Laden, based in
Afghanistan under the protection of its radical Islamic government, as a
prime suspect behind the attacks which may have killed over 5,000 people.

The Daily Telegraph said Europol was giving serious consideration to
claims that some sort of state-sponsored terrorism was involved but had no
hard evidence.

"There are a lot of people with the same philosophy who may have been to
bin Laden's training camps, but are not necessarily under his orders,"
Storbeck said.

Europol, established by the EU's 15 member states to tackle such issues as
terrorism, money laundering and illegal immigration, set up an
anti-terrorism task force crisis center immediately after the attacks.

                         DEFINING APARTHEID

Article 2 of the "International Convention of the Suppression and
Punishment of the Crime of Apartheid" of 1973 clearly defined the
term "crime of apartheid." This includes similar policies and practices
of segregation and discrimination as practiced in South Africa and
which also apply to inhuman acts committed for the purpose of the
establishment and maintaining of domination by one racial group over
another. This includes the deliberated imposition of living conditions
calculated to cause physical destruction and any legislative or other
measures preventing a racial group from full development of their
political, social, economic and cultural life.  This is an accurate
description of what the zionists are doing to the Palestinian people
with the full support of the USA.
