Libyan strongman Moammar Khadafy remains elusive as a businessman offered up a large bounty.

Where in the world is Moammar Khadafy?

Deposed despot Moammar Khadafy is wanted dead or alive - with a $2 million bounty on his head.
Even worse for the longtime Libyan leader, his captor - or killer - can collect the cash and a get-out-of-jail-free card from the rebels who forced Khadafy to flee his Tripoli compound.
"The National Transitional Council announces that any of his inner circle who kill Khadafy or capture him, society will give amnesty or pardon for any crime," said spokesman Mustafa Abdel Jalil.
JOURNALISTS FREED FROM LIBYAN HOTEL HORROR
The $2 million payoff was posted Wednesday by a group of Tripoli businessmen.
With even his foreign minister acknowledging Khadafy's 42-year regime was finished, the focus turned to finding the fugitive ex-Libyan leader.
Khadafy's whereabouts remained unknown a day after rebel forces seized control of the capital and his headquarters

Rebels, looters target Gadhafi family homes

EGYPT-LIBYA BORDER, LIBYA - FEBRUARY 24:  A Li...Image by Getty Images via @daylifeAs I look at how this part of our new history is going down. I can't help but to wonder. The New World Government is able to take all the Kings money and make it to where he has none. This leaves me to wonder even more. What about the general public. Is what we make even ours anymore? If we decide we don't like or want to do what the New World Government wants us to do. Are they in the future going to shut off all of our funds and take it all as well.
That is a mob type of mentality isn't it? What gets me is so many are calling the people of the Tea Party Mobs? The ones that believes what we make is ours. I must say we are truly living in a very backwards world right now. 

http://news.yahoo.com/rebels-looters-target-gadhafi-family-homes-215327125.html
TRIPOLI, Libya — Moammar Gadhafi's son al-Saadi liked fast cars, yachts and soccer, and his beachfront villa was stocked with his expensive toys. His sister Aisha lived in a two-story mansion with an indoor pool and sauna.
As rebels took control of the Libyan capital over the weekend, the luxurious homes — symbols of the Gadhafi family's excesses — were among their first targets. After driving out the guards, rebels trashed and looted the villas and neighbors wandered through the wreckage Wednesday expressing their anger at the Gadhafi family's wealth and ostentatious tastes.
"I can't even believe what I am seeing," said Muftah Shubri, a resident of Tripoli's western Nofleen neighborhood, as he walked across Aisha's lawn to the large covered pool where a ball and a small rubber boat still floated in the water.
Gadhafi's 42-year rule over Libya had increasingly become a family business, with the dictator divvying up key spheres of interest, from oil to security, among his six sons.
In recent years, the Gadhafi offspring had been involved in a series of scandals: Hannibal got arrested in 2008 in Switzerland for mistreating his servants in a Geneva luxury hotel and Muatassim reportedly paid $1 million for a private New Year's concert by Beyonce.

Muslim terrorists put chokehold on food to Christians

http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=335157


Displaced Somali family
Members of Somalia's jihadi group al-Shabaab are on a campaign to starve the country's Christians by preventing food from being delivered to them, according to ministry groups working in the chaotic region.
While reports from a number of analysts say Mogadishu's population is swelling daily with people coming to the city to escape the famine-ravaged countryside, Christian human rights groups offer additional details.
According to the Barnabas Fund, it is the al-Qaida-affiliated group al-Shabaab whose members are putting a chokehold on international food aid that is being dispatched to Somalia but is not reaching the people.
International Christian Concern analyst Jonathan Racho says no aid gets through without al-Shabaab's consent.
"There are different kinds of people in al-Shabaab. There are those who came from other countries, Islamic citizens who joined al-Shabaab. There are also those Somalis who are in al-Shabaab," Racho said.

Algerian Christian sentenced to prison after sharing faith with neighbor

Londonistan: How Britain is Creating a Terror ...Image via Wikipediahttp://www.catholicculture.org/news/headlines/index.cfm?storyid=10483
Siagh Krimo, an Algerian Christian, was sentenced to five years in prison on May 25 after he shared his faith with a neighbor. Krimo was sentenced under the nation’s blasphemy law, which prohibits actions that “insult the prophet [Muhammad] and any of the messengers of God, or denigrate the creed and precepts of Islam, whether by writing, drawing, declaration, or any other means.”
“Algerian Christians have been under attack in recent weeks as laws have been increasingly enforced to discriminate against them,” said Aidan Clay of International Christian Concern. “Earlier this week, seven churches in Béjaia were ordered to close. Now, an Algerian Christian is on the verge of being unjustly imprisoned for accusations of criticizing Islam. While Algeria professes that it upholds religious freedom, it also embraces a blasphemy law that, by its very nature, can be used to prosecute anyone who does not adhere to the religion of Islam.”
Only 4,000 of Algeria’s 34.8 million people are Catholic, according to Vatican statistics; 99% of Algerians are Muslim.

More than 60 churches were burned and thousands of Christian-owned homes destroyed in Nigeria's predominantly Muslim north after the recent election of incumbent Christian president Goodluck Jonathan, according to the Christian persecution watchdog group Open Doors.
Riots broke out Monday after the preliminary results of Saturday's vote were announced. Jonathan, who was sworn in as president in May 2010, was announced president over his Muslim opponent Muhammadu Buhari.
"Last year there were more martyrs in Nigeria - approximately 2,000 Christians killed in the northern part - than in any other country in the world," said Open Doors USA President/CEO Carl Moeller. "Nigeria is such a key country in the spread of Christianity all over Africa."
"Please join me in prayer for the Christians there, especially for those in the north," he added.
Muslims complained that the vote tallies were rigged, but independent observers described the election as the fairest in decades.

Video - Breaking News Videos from CNN.com - GPS: China flexes military muscle

I Saw this video a couple of days ago. To my surprise there as been no news articles on this that I have found whatsoever. Other than this video from CNN.If Chinese ships are going around Libya for the first time showing how powerful they are. Wouldn't this be all over the news? We all know China has a major Military Force. This is like a wow moment. Though they are just picking up their citizens. I wonder why this doesn't have more attention.

Update: Egypt Church Attack

A green version of http://commons.wikimedia.or...Image via Wikipediahttp://blogs.cbn.com/globallane/archive/2011/03/07/update-egypt-church-attack.aspx

CAIRO, Egypt - CBN News has learned new information about the recent attack against Christian homes and a church in the town of Soul, Atfif, Helwan Governorate not far from Cairo.
Coptic contacts told CBN News, the Muslim mob that attacked the Christians did so at the urging of Mullah Ahmed Abu El-Dabah.
They said during noon prayers at his mosque last Friday, March 4, the imam told attendees the “kaffirs” (infidels) had caused a lover’s dispute that led to the death of two Muslims the day before. He allegedly incited Muslims to rid the town of all Christians.
Forty-year old Coptic Ashraf Iskander was reportedly in a relationship with a Muslim woman. Village elders— Muslims and Christians agreed that Iskander needed to leave the village.
CBN News has learned that the woman’s father entered into a heated argument with his cousin and the cousin demanded that more be done. He insisted it was not enough for Iskander to leave the village—the woman had dishonored the family and should be killed.

Somali Teenage Girl Shot to Death for Embracing Christ | Christianpost.com

Slum Kibera in Nairobi, Kenya.Image via Wikipediahttp://www.worthynews.com/redirect.php?url=http://www.christianpost.com/article/20101204/somali-teenage-girl-shot-to-death-for-embracing-christ
NAIROBI, Kenya (CDN) - A 17-year-old girl in Somalia who converted to Christianity from Islam was shot to death last week in an apparent “honor killing,” area sources said.
Nurta Mohamed Farah, who had fled her village of Bardher, Gedo Region to Galgadud Region to live with relatives after her parents tortured her for leaving Islam, died on Nov. 25. Area sources said they strongly suspected that the two unidentified men in Galgadud Region who shot her in the chest and head with a pistol were relatives or acting on their behest.
“Reports reached the relatives in Galgadud that Nurta Farah had converted to Christianity,” one source said. “The suspicion that the family is responsible is a solid one. The sister was killed in Abudwaq, a district in Galgadud Region, and the place where the incident took place is about 200 meters from where the sister was staying with relatives.”
Relatives buried Farah, sources said. Her parents had severely beaten her for leaving Islam and regularly shackled her to a tree at their home, Christian sources said. She had been confined to her home in Gedo region in southern Somalia since May 10, when her family found out that she had embraced Christianity, said a Christian leader who visited the area.

Crackdown on Christians ramping up

Analyst: Deportation orders reflect fear Muslims will convert
clipped from www.wnd.com

The government of Morocco has notified another 23 mostly Christian foreigners, including one American, that they're scheduled for imminent expulsion from the North African country.

And an analyst says that those targeted by the deportation order indicate the government of Morocco, which historically has been considered a moderate Muslim nation, now is fearful that Muslims will convert if exposed to Christianity.

This is the second large deportation action taken by the Moroccan government against mostly Christian individuals in the past two months. More than 40 Christian workers were deported from Morocco in March.

Aidan Clay of International Christian Concern says the North African nation simply is alarmed about the possibility that Muslims may see an opportunity to leave Islam.

"The reason they received these notices is that they allegedly broke Morocco's anti-proselytizing laws. This is the same reason for the deportations in March," Clay told WND.

Somali Christian Killed

clipped from www.persecution.com

On May 4, members of the Islamic extremist group al-Shabaab killed an underground church leader in Xarardheere, Mudug region, Somalia, according to Compass Direct News.

The extremists, who were battling a rival rebel group for control of the area, were searching house to house for enemy fighters when they arrived at the home of 57-year-old Yusuf Ali Nur, a school teacher and underground church leader. They suspected that Yusuf was a Christian, so they shot him multiple times at close range, killing him. Yusuf is survived by his wife and three children, ages 7, 9 and 11.

Al-Shabaab, which is linked with al-Qaeda, has reportedly vowed to rid Somalia of Christianity. In recent months, several Somali Christians have been killed by the group in execution-style murders, including one murder as recently as late March.
The Voice of the Martyrs encourages you to pray that Yusuf’s loved ones will trust in God’s unfailing love.

Morocco: Christians Deported

clipped from www.persecution.com
The Moroccan government has deported twenty-eight Christian workers so far in May, according to The Voice of the Martyrs contacts.

“The Moroccan government continues political pressures against us Moroccan believers and against the foreign workers, and if it stopped for a while before, it was only to restart again and strongly,” VOM contacts said. “Please continue to pray and also to act, because if this … continues, soon we’ll not be deported but [we will be] arrested or even killed.”

In recent months, the government has increased its crackdown on Christians, expelling as many as 60 Christian aid workers from the country. Moroccan police have accused Christian aid workers from the United States, Korea, Netherlands and England of violating Morocco’s anti-proselytism laws.
“When [authorities] visited an American-founded orphanage in the town of Azrou, they drew several young children aside and demanded they demonstrate the ‘proper’ way to pray,”

Kenyan official: Obama born here

In debate over constitution, minister urges African nation to emulate U.S. inclusion
clipped from www.wnd.com

A Kenyan lawmaker told the nation's parliament last month that Barack Obama was born in Africa and is therefore "not even a native American."

During debate over the draft of a new Kenyan constitution, James Orengo, the country's minister of lands and a member of parliament for the Ugenya constituency, cited America's election of a Kenyan-born president as an example of what can be accomplished when diverse peoples unite:

"If America was living in a situation where they feared ethnicity and did not see itself as a multiparty state or nation," Orengo posited, "how could a young man born here in Kenya, who is not even a native American, become the president of America?"

Orengo held up the U.S. as a country no longer "living in the past," since Americans elected a Kenyan-born president without regard to "ethnic consideration and objectives."

Debate is then recorded in the Kenyan government's official March 25, 2010, hansard

Rights Groups Condemn Sudanese National Election Conditions

Just a quick note here. Is it just me or does anyone else notice that Obama has something to push on the entire world?
Just a thought.
clipped from www1.voanews.com
Human rights groups are sharply criticizing the Sudanese elections, even though there are three more days of voting.    
The Enough Project, Save Darfur Coalition, Genocide Intervention Network and Humanity United held a joint teleconference Monday.  
“The national elections are a tremendous lost opportunity for Sudan,” says John Norris, head of the Enough Project at the Center for American Progress.    
The Obama administration has a special envoy for Sudan, General Scott Gration.  He took part in efforts to get the elections back on track when main opposition parties dropped out of the vote.
Mark Lotwis, acting president of the Save Darfur Coalition, wants President Obama to take a firm stand on the elections.
The rights groups plan to hold daily briefings this week on the latest developments in the Sudanese elections.

White slaughter in South Africa?

White slaughter
in South Africa?

Plans made to conduct campaign

of genocide after Mandela's death

While former South African President Nelson Mandela, 85, scoffs at rumors of ill health, plans are being made by the nation's Communist Party to slaughter all whites in the country upon his death, G2B sources say.

One of the operations planned entails 70,000 armed black men "being transported to the Johannesburg city center within an hour" in taxicabs to attack whites.

The plans are variously dubbed "Operation Vula," "Night of the Long Knives," "Operation White Clean-up," "Operation Iron Eagle" and "Red October campaign."

The assailants were expected to "take over" fuel points and massacre whites. The attacks would lead to a coup.

"White people in South Africa can deny it to the end of the earth, but we are in real danger," one resident said. "This is no joke and any person with half a brain can see that this rumor has spiraled out of control."
