Condoleezza Rice warns against ring of fire

ISLAMIC militants would turn South-East Asia into "a ring of fire" unless they are actively confronted, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice warned yesterday, just hours before she was to touch down in Australia.

Dr Rice, wrapping up a two-day trip to Indonesia, said al-Qaida-linked terrorist groups blamed for a series of bloody attacks in recent years were trying to destroy the multi-ethnic region's tradition of tolerance.

She was due to arrive in Sydney overnight for three days of regional security talks with Foreign Minister Alexander Downer and Japanese counterpart Taro Aso. Terrorism, the Iraq war, the North Korean nuclear crisis and China's role are expected to be on the agenda.

"We are working alongside countries like Malaysia and Singapore, and to build the capacity of others like the Philippines, who have the will to fight terrorism but need help with the means," Dr Rice said. She said groups like Abu Sayyaf and Jemaah Islamiah – two of South-East Asia's most notorious terrorist outfits – must be fought.

Stern words: US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said terrorist groups had to be actively confronted.

1. If Junior goes to prison for war crimes
the term "ring of fire" will have much more meaning for him.

2. Please keep your fingers out of the pies!
We're weary from the forein policy "help" you that you think you're giving. Why don't you and Karen Hughes and your ilk take a nice break in a quiet place for awhile?

3. Ghod, I can't stand to look at her.
She's in the same category for me as Bush, I see that face and I want to vomit.

Now Rummy, on the other hand, I find an interesting character because he's so obviously driven mad by guilt and failure. But you don't see that in Bush or Rice's face.

4. The Neanderthal Republicans will slurp this new slogan up, eh?
Dumb asses!

Where's the mushroom cloud, ya 'Commie-on-the-brain' twit? Do you think her dad made her run nuclear bomb drills in his home bomb shelter day and night throughout the 1950s to make her so whacked out? What is her frickin' problem?
