Terrorists pack of Islamist always travel alone, except when they don’t.
Hey we know you have trouble with the truth. just say it after me … Islamist terrorists.
The number of people injured in the Boston Marathon bombings has been revised sharply upwards.
Medical officials now say 282 competitors and bystanders suffered injuries from the twin blasts, that took place last Monday near the finish line of the Boston Marathon.
Of those injured, 48 remain hospitalized, two who are reported in critical condition. They are a 7-year-old girl, and a man described as being in his 60s.
Boston Medical Director of Endovascular Surgery Dr. Jeffery Kalish says 14 patients had one or more limbs amputated, and now face what he calls “daunting” recoveries.
Marathon bombings mastermind Tamerlan Tsarnaev was living on taxpayer-funded state welfare benefits even as he was delving deep into the world of radical anti-American Islamism, the Herald has learned.
State officials confirmed last night that Tsarnaev, slain in a raging gun battle with police last Friday, was receiving benefits along with his wife, Katherine Russell Tsarnaev, and their 3-year-old daughter. The state’s Executive Office of Health and Human Services said those benefits ended in 2012 when the couple stopped meeting income eligibility limits. Russell Tsarnaev’s attorney has claimed Katherine — who had converted to Islam — was working up to 80 hours a week as a home health aide while Tsarnaev stayed at home.
No comments, but one, I think our government is broken …
Growing pains, as apparently the Egypt’s new dictator is worse than the old dictator. That’s the problem with dictators in the Muslim world changes are not always for the better. Try Before you buy.
Supporters and opponents of Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood clashed on the streets of Cairo today. Riot police fired tear gas as the rival groups fought near the Brotherhood headquarters.
More like boing, plop, everybody back on your head now, take a break, time for prayer.
Of course pre-Arab Spring Tunisia was staunchly secular, not so much these days. Yes this is from that AP newsservice, so I don’t know it’s accuracy. Proceed with caution, as always with unvetted sources.
TUNIS, Tunisia (AP) — TUNISIANS HEAD ABROAD TO PERFORM JIHAD
The cradle of the Arab Spring is increasingly looking like the birthplace of jihadists.
Long before Tunisia ousted its dictator and inspired the North African pro-democracy movement, the small, relatively prosperous country had the more dubious distinction of exporting Islamic militants. Now, as the country wrestles with the creation of a new government after the killing of a liberal opposition leader, experts say the flow of fighters is getting worse.
The repressive measures of the old secular dictatorship fueled the anger that produced jihadi movements, but its ruthless security apparatus also kept them largely in check. The much more relaxed approach of the country’s new leaders is allowing extremist groups and their networks to flourish like never before, experts say.
Though no one knows for sure just how many Tunisian fighters have traveled abroad, evidence suggests it remains one of the top exporters of jihadists per capita. Tunisians have turned up on the battlefields of Iraq, Syria, Libya and now Mali. The 32-man militant strike team that seized a gas plant in Algeria and took dozens of foreign workers hostage was more than one-third Tunisian.
Because of its small, well-educated population, there were hopes Tunisia would transition relatively easily to democracy after the ouster of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali in January 2011. But it is now a battleground pitting secularists and Islamists against one another and in the confusion of creating a new state networks radicalized by the previous regime are flourishing.
Al-Qaeda’s list of 22 tips for dodging drone attacks – including at least one believed to originate with Osama bin Laden – has been found hidden inside a manila envelope in a building abandoned by Islamists in Mali.
The document includes advice such as “hide under thick trees” (believed to be bin Laden’s contribution), and instructions for setting up a “fake gathering” using dolls to “mislead the enemy”.
Like a fake wedding party, they come in handy for the lamestream media …
Found by the Associated Press in a building in Timbuktu, the ancient city occupied by Islamists last year, the document is believed to have been abandoned as extremists fled a French military intervention last month. It is a Xeroxed copy of a tipsheet authored by a Yemeni extremist that has been published on some jihadi forums, but that has made little appearance in English.
The list reflects how al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghbreb anticipated a military intervention that would make use of drones, as the war on terror shifts from the ground to the air.
The document also shows the coordination between al-Qaeda chapters, which security experts have called a source of increasing concern.
“This new document… shows we are no longer dealing with an isolated local problem, but with an enemy which is reaching across continents to share advice,” said Bruce Riedel, a 30-year veteran of the CIA, now the director of the Intelligence Project at the Brookings Institute.
While some of the tips are outdated or far-fetched, taken together, they suggest the Islamists in Mali are responding to the threat of drones with sound, common-sense advice that may help them to melt into the desert in between attacks, leaving barely a trace.

They are at war with us, while Obama naps.
Whatdo the Islamo Fascists want? They want it all. Freedom and Islam are orthogonal concepts.
The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) posted unbelievable video Sunday of Islamists rallying in England a little over one week ago to protest the French intervention in Mali.
The chants of the Islamists, though, appear to target the West in its entirety. Far from objecting to French foreign policy, the speakers repeatedly threaten that an Islamic caliphate will begin in Africa and the Middle East, but will eventually spread to “the whole world.”
“We will not stop as Muslims until the whole world is governed by Islam,” one man says evenly and calmly.
The video begins with a bearded individual leading chants, saying things like “Shariah for Mali! Jihad for Mali!” and “Allah Akbar!”
Soon, though, he launches into a more informative speech.
“We got rid of some of our dictators– Ben Ali, Mubarak, and al-Qadhafi. But now it’s time for the dictators in Mali, in Pakistan, in Bangladesh, and all over Muslim lands to be removed and replaced by the shariah, by Islam,” he states.
Another speaker, who seems far more composed and level-headed, makes a bolder declaration.
