al-Qaeda commander told to SHUT UP..
An al-Qaeda commander in Afghanistan has been ordered to break off contacts with colleagues after being linked to a string of arrests in Saudi Arabia.
Militant Islamic forums have been carrying a message appealing to Abu Nasser al-Qahtani to cease making direct contact with people in Saudi Arabia and blaming him for the arrest of 23 people there.
The message says: "The brothers are asking you not to contact anyone in person, but do it through others instead, the leader does not make calls in person. With every call a brother is detained and God help us."
Al-Qahtani was one of 16 al-Qaeda suspects who escaped from US detention at Bagram Airbase in July last year.
He is now leading attacks against US troops in the Khost area and has featured in two recent official al-Qaeda videos.

Syria backing Fath Al-Islam militants: to avoid investigation.
The Lebanese government and the March 14 forces are accusing Syria of training and arming the Fath Al-Islam militants, and of bringing them into Lebanon. They are claiming that Syria ordered the organization to launch a large-scale attack on the Lebanese army at this point in time so as to prevent the U.N. Security Council from approving the establishment of an international tribunal for the Al-Hariri assassination.
Furthermore, the March 14 Forces link Fath Al-Islam's attack on the Lebanese army to the threats made recently by Syrian President Bashar Assad, which were reported by numerous media outlets. According to the reports, Assad threatened, in a conversation with U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon, to set fire to the region "from the Caspian Sea to the Mediterranean"; another time, he threatened that civil war would break out in Lebanon if the tribunal was approved.

Israel wants nuclear deadline for Iran
Israel will propose to the United States an end-of-year deadline for Iran to show it is backing down from its nuclear ambitions.
Transportation Minister Shaul Mofaz, who heads the Israeli team in the U.S.-Israel strategic dialogue, said he would propose the deadline Thursday, when the dialogue participants meet for the second time this year.
"Sanctions must be strong enough to bring about change in the Iranians by the end of 2007," Mofaz told a group of Hebrew-speaking reporters after meeting Wednesday with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.
Mofaz also said that it was his understanding that the United States was prepared to lead a separate bid to increase sanctions against Iran if the U.N. Security Council does not authorize new sanctions.
