The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and
hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series
of hobgoblins; all of them imaginary.

Manual offers tips on bombs

DARGA SHARKHAN, Iraq - The 2-inch-thick manual on killing, discovered in an abandoned bomb laboratory here earlier this month, offers instruction in al-Qaida's array of lethal demolition skills.
With Arabic text complemented by diagrams taken from U.S. military manuals, the document offers lessons for rigging explosives, setting and concealing booby traps, and wiring an alarm clock to detonate a bomb.
The book is a photocopy of one volume of the Jihad Encyclopedia, a technical manual that U.S. officials have said is used by al-Qaida in its war against the West. Other copies were found in terrorist training camps and houses in Afghanistan after the defeat of the Taliban in 2001.
This copy, though, was found in this valley in the Kurdish enclave in northern Iraq. It was recovered by Kurdish security officials accompanied by a reporter in a training center operated by Ansar al-Islam, a local armed party.
Weeks after Ansar was forced from its territory by U.S. special-forces soldiers and Kurdish fighters at the end of March, evidence gathered from its bases provides a detailed look at the operations of that band of Islamic fighters.
Documents gathered in 2001 by a correspondent for the New York Times 1,300 miles away in Kabul, the Afghan capital, suggested that al-Qaida was then helping to unify the Islamic groups that became Ansar and was encouraging them to establish strict Islamic rules in villages they controlled.
The documents spoke of the groups in Iraq and said they should be urged to unite. Kurdish officials and Ansar defectors have said leaders of the groups that formed Ansar went to Afghanistan in 2000 and 2001 to meet with al-Qaida officials.
