(U.S.) Alaska couple to plead guilty to terrorism charges
-- AP: "Paul Rockwood Jr. and his wife, Nadia Rockwood, of King Salmon, Alaska, are charged with lying about the list and making false statements about domestic terrorism during interviews with FBI agents in May."

-- "Officials said that in late 2009, he began discussing using mail bombs and possibly killing targets by gunshot to the head. By early this year, the hit list had been formalized, with about 15 targets. It was not made public."

-- "Prosecutors alleged that Paul Rockwood, also known as "Bilal," converted to Islam about a decade ago and began studying the teachings of American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, who has professed hatred for the United States and supports acts of terrorism. According to the charging documents, Paul Rockwood converted to Islam in late 2001 or 2002 when the couple lived in Virginia."

-- "'After his conversion, and while residing in Virginia, Rockwood became a strict adherent to the violent Jihad-promoting ideology of cleric Anwar al-Awlaki,' the documents said. 'This included a personal conviction that it was his religious responsibility to exact revenge by death on anyone who desecrated Islam.'"

Iran: Sakineh Ashtiani Stoning Case Review Postponed for 20 Days
http://www.realcourage.org/2010/07/sakineh-stoning-review-postponed/

-- Mission Free Iran reports: "ICAE Press Release #19: Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani’s case review postponed; final judgment will be made in 20 days"
-- "In our last press release we reported that the Supreme Court in Iran would issue a statement on Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani’s case on July 21st, 2010. Today we have been informed by our sources in Iran that the Islamic regime has postponed a decision in Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani’s case for another 20 days. According to the sources, all documents of Sakineh’s case have been sent to the 9th division of the Supreme Court."

-- "We believe that Sakineh is still at risk of being executed or even stoned to death. The aim of the Islamic regime of Iran is clear: by pushing back the date of the final verdict they hope to buy time to escape the pressure of the international community. The Islamic regime is waiting for the international news coverage and the pressure to abate to then continue with their criminal activities."
