7 dead in shooting rampage at postal center
At the first report of this, I must admit I was not shocked or surprised. These types of things certainly seem to be happening with more frequency.
However, the fact that this rampage was from a female sets it apart. I can not recall an incident like this being from a …

Slade Allen Woodson was expected to arrive in court this morning to plead guilty to some or all of the 15 felony counts he racked up from a March 27 shooting spree that closed Interstate 64.

Apologetic Mumbai Killers: "We Didn't Get the Memo About Obama"
MUMBAI - Ajmal Amir Kasab, the sole surviving member of the 10-man team of Pakistani gunmen that left hundreds dead or wounded after a bloody three day rampage in Mumbai, today blamed the mayhem on an "email mixup" that left him and his colleagues unaware that Barack Obama had won election as President of the United States. "What? Oh bloody hell, now you tell me," said Kasab, as he was led away in handcuffs by Indian security forces. Kasab, 21, apologized to Indian President Pratibha Patil, e

HAMMER ICONS OF HORROR
As the old song goes, “Tis Autumn.” It’s a time when falling leaves rustle in the wind, and an autumnal light basks everything in an eerie glow. Seeing as pumpkins are in short supply this year, Sony Home Video has stepped into the breach with this set of Hammer horrors. The collection comes with a cover illustration of an gauzy-looking mummy carrying a luxuriously-coiffed female. (You might say this is a slightly different interpretation of the term “wrapped tight.”) There’s also a big yellow
A couple of links about the Mumbai terrorist attack
Depak Chopra says that this was America's Fault. From the Wall Street Journal: Deepak Blames America The media look within to explain the sick delusions of the Mumbai killers. If the Mumbai terror assault seemed exceptional, and shocking in its targets, it was clear from the Thanksgiving Day reports that we weren't going to be deprived of the familiar, either. Namely, ruminations, hints, charges of American culpability that regularly accompany catastrophes of this kind. Soon enough, there w
Mumbai: The Aftermath
While the realities of the terrorist attacks in Mumbai are still sinking in around the world, images continue to come out of India. Indian authorities continue the grim task of pulling bodies out of the Taj Mahal Palace, the Nariman House and the other attack sites, the people of Mumbai have come out to remember the victims and question what should be done next in the global fight against terrorism. The now deserted square by The Gateway To India and the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower Hotel
Islam's Image Tarnished by Terrorism
http://www.investors.com/editorial/cartoon.asp Moderate Muslims have done an abysmal job of standing up and speaking out against the radical element of their religion. Perhaps, their unwillingness to reprimand the militant fringe is because of fear of retribution, and in some cases, possibly, the moderate Muslims actually support the terrorist activity. Either way, the actions by the Islamic terrorists have tarnished the Muslim faith, and many are objecting to the effect it is having on t
The World
The World 01-Dec-08 Panel Fears Use of Unconventional Weapon WASHINGTON — An independent commission has concluded that terrorists will most likely carry out an attack with biological, nuclear or other unconventional weapons somewhere in the world in the next five years unless the United States and its allies act urgently to prevent that… The panel’s 13 recommendations focus on fighting the threat of bioterrorism, including improved bioforensic capabilities, and strengthening international o
FIGURING OUT WHAT MUMBAI MEANS
If you’re not paying attention to what’s been going on in India the past week, you should. This post is an attempt for you to get your feet wet to become a more engaged global citizen. Let’s start with a quote from Pakistan’s U.S. ambassador, Husain Haqqani, who sounded what I think is the right strategic tone to take yesterday on This Week with George Stephanopoulos: “The point we must remember is that we should not see this heinous act in the context of India-Pakistan relations. We shou

Jews against the Vatican, Islam scandal, and some violence
Jewish leaders in Italy have announced that they will boycott a Vatican interfaith event next year over the Vatican's reinstatement of a "bloodless Holocaust" (see: Jews for Jesus) prayer calling for the mass conversion of mainstream Jews to that annoying ancient Essene cult called Christianity. Speaking of Jews for Jesus... the executive director of Jews for Jesus, David Brickner, has just posted a lovely little article entitled "Let's Elect a Dictator!" Of course, the punchline is that the dic
A Culture of Weakness
A Culture of Weakness Share Post Print November 30, 2008 Posted by John at 10:34 PM We may never fully understand how ten armed men were able to terrorize a city of 19 million, but this is at least part of the explanation: In the first wave of the attacks, two young gunmen armed with assault rifles blithely ignored more than 60 police officers patrolling the city's main train station and sprayed bullets into the crowd. Bapu Thombre, assistant commissioner with the Mumbai railway police,
"Unfortunately, we have yet to see a distinguished popular condemnation in the traditional Arab or Muslim communities that strongly rejects what is happening in the name of Islam"
Who said that? What greasy Islamophobe dared to call into question the sincerity or adequacy of Muslim condemnations of terrorism? Would you believe Khaled al-Jenfawi, a columnist for Kuwait's Al-Seyassah daily? Anyway, in this story, "Muslims condemn Mumbai attacks, worry about image," by Karin Laub for The Associated Press, November 30, Muslim leaders and spokesmen worry a great deal about the possibility that these jihad attacks in Mumbai by a Tiny Minority of Extremists™ will lead people

Somehow, it seems like we've been down this road before: Muslims from the Middle East to Britain and Austria condemned Sunday the Mumbai shooting rampage by suspected Islamic militants as senseless terrorism, but also found themselves on the defensive once again about bloodshed linked to their religion.
