[Title] => US anti-terror scary/ Civil society in disarray
[Summary] => The world has indeed changed since 9/11. And America is in the middle of it all, looming right in everybody’s midst as the dark, scowling, all-powerful avenging angel against international terrorism. Now we are being told by the US State Department that in our very own country, the US military can kill anybody it chooses to on suspicion of being a terrorist. In fact, this is exactly what it did recently in Yemen. Six suspected al-Qaeda operatives were exterminated by a Hellfire missile launched from remote-controlled CIA Predator 160 kilometers east of Sanaa, Yemen’s capital.

[Title] => US eyes missile strike versus SEA terrorists
[Summary] => A controversial CIA-led missile strike which killed six suspected al-Qaeda members in Yemen was "legal and necessary" and may be emulated in Southeast Asia to crush terror groups, a top US counter-terrorism official said yesterday.
"We will use whatever is necessary and legal to attack this (terrorist) threat, to interdict it and eliminate it," Francis Taylor, the US State Department coordinator for counter-terrorism, told a media briefing at the US Embassy in Manila.

[Title] => US: MILF terror tag up to RP
[Summary] => The United States will not declare the secessionist Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) a terrorist organization unless it gets the go-signal from the Philippine government, a US official said yesterday.
Francis Taylor, the US State Department’s coordinator for counter-terrorism with the rank of ambassador-at-large, said Washington is closely watching the peace negotiations between the government and the MILF, which has been linked to al-Qaeda and its Indonesia-based affiliate in Southeast Asia, Jemaah Islamiyah (JI).
