Afghanistan feels wrath
KABUL, Afghanistan — In the rubble of what had been an unassuming two-story building on Kabul's outskirts, Mohammed Afzl wept yesterday for his brother — one of the first four confirmed civilian casualties of the U.S.-led air war against the Taliban and Osama bin Laden.
The Associated Press
"My brother is buried under there," he said, watching bulldozers clear the remains of the offices of a U.N.-funded mine-clearing agency where the victims worked as guards.
The building in a quiet district
of vegetable fields on the edge of the capital was less than 400 yards away from anti-airmacraft batteries and a communication tower struck in U.S. raids Monday night. In Washington, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said it was not clear whether the building was hit by a U.S. missile or by anti-aircraft fire.
"What can we do?" Afzl said, still crying as he recounted how he had begged his brother to spend the night with family instead of guarding the empty building. "Our lives are ruined."
Last night, American war
planes were back in the skies, pounding areas around the Taliban headquarters of Kandahar for the second time in 12 hours and the northwestern city of Herat. Planes screeched over the capital, sparking thunderous anti-aircraft fire and sending residents huddling back into whatever shelter they could find.
ever shelter they could ever sit in the dark, watching the sky, waiting to die," said vegetable vendor Jamal Uddin, shutting down his shop as the lights went out last night.
Terrorists respond to attacks
The Associated Press
CAIRO, Egypt — Osama bin Laden's spokesman yesterday called for a holy war against United States' interests everywhere and praised the hijackers who flew planes into the World Trade Center and Pentagon for their "good deed."
"America must know that the storm of airplanes will not stop, and there are thousands of young people who look forward to death like the Americans look forward to life." Sulaiman Abu Ghaith said.
The message from Abu Ghaith was the second statement from al-Qaida since the launch of U.S.led airstrikes against Afghanistan on Sunday.
Abu Ghaith, who addressed his message "to the entire Islamic nation," said that President Bush had launched a "crusade" against Afghanistan with the launch of strikes and Muslims worldwide must respond.
Jihad, or holy war, "is a duty of every Muslim if they haven't got an excuse," he said in the videotaped statement broadcast on the
Arab television news station Al Jazeera.
He praised the Sept. 11 attacks on New York and Washington, saying the hijackers "did something good" and took the battle to the heart of America.
the idea that the Americans have opened a door that will never be closed," Abu Ghaith said of the continuing air raids on Afghanistan. "America must know that the battle will not leave its land until America leaves our land; until it stops supporting Israel; until it stops the blockade against Iraq."
Job, revenue loss abundant in NY
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Mayor Rudolph Giuliani ordered a 15 percent cut in spending by city departments yesterday, predicting the World Trade Center attack will cost $1 billion in revenue this fiscal year and 100,000 jobs
York's economy.
Separately, Gov. George Pataki said it would take $54 billion in federal money for New York to recover. He said New York is requesting $34 billion to rebuild lower Manhattan and $20 billion to reinvigorate New
In secondary Giuliani spared only the police and fire departments and school system from double-digit budget cuts. Those departments face a 2.5 percent cutback. A citywide hiring freeze went into effect after the Sept. 11 attack, he said.
"There's no question our budget problems are real and substantial, but they are significantly less than the problems we've already encountered and overcome," said Giuliani, referring to the fiscal crisis of the 1970s.
Congress has already approved $20 billion to help New York rebuild and recover, and the city has a $550 million reserve.
"People who bet against New York have always lost," Pataki said. "We're going to come through this."
The mayor, who leaves office at the end of December, offered some advice to his eventual successor: Do not raise taxes.
"It would be a dumb, stupid, idiotic and moronic thing to do," he said.
