Col. Gordon Cucullu "(Abu Sayyaf has) really come out of the kind of kidnap-for-ransom mode. They've now linked up with Jemaah Islamiyah; Khadaffy Janjalani was a key man in that happen. JI helped link Abu Sayyaf with the Rajah Solaiman Movement, which gives both the MILF and the Abu Sayyaf reach into the northern parts of the Philippines. The RSM are Christian converts so they speak Tagalog, the local dialect, without any southern accent, without any hint that they come from the south. If you talk about profiling, they would not fit the profile. They can merge into the capitol (and) into the northern Christian cities so it's much harder for law enforcement to actually be able to track them down." - Maria Ressa "If (the Islamic Party of Malaysia) was to win the election, the first thing that they would do is expand the implementation of Islamic laws in all areas of life. In fact, the party is the government of one state, since we have a federal system here. So they actually rule one of the states in Malaysia, Kelantan, and they have passed the sharia laws extensively. Sharia laws at the moment are only limited to family law. But in Kelantan, they have expanded sharia laws to also include criminal laws. Except at the moment there is a problem becaue they cannot implement the laws unless the federal constitution also passes the law. So it is a kind of a law waiting to be implemented. Although it was passed by the state legislature, at any time whenever there is a set of events, say one day the federal government is taken over by the Islamic Party, definitely Islamic law will be implemented. So this is what we are worrying about, the people of Malaysia. Though although at the one can go on, one can conduct his business in a normal way, there is something hanging up there and we don't know what, in fact, that will have upon the non-Muslim population." - Dr. Maznah Mohamad Track Listing SamulNori - P'ul Sal Siegfried - Shiza Shigeru Umebayashi - Farewell 1 Dick Lee - Rice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Global Crisis Watch is an independent and weekly 30-minute current affairs and news podcast focusing on the Global War on Terror, the War of Ideas, and indigenous pro-democracy efforts around the world.
