Irish police arrested seven Muslims suspected of a plot to kill a Swedish cartoonist

Lars Vilks

“I’m not shaking with fear, exactly,” [Swedish cartoonist Lars Vilks] told Swedish news agency TT, adding: “I have prepared in different ways and I have an axe here in case someone should manage to get in through the window.”

“Vilks has in the past dismissed the threats against him as “scare tactics” and, supported by the Swedish media, has insisted on the importance of publishing such material in defence of Sweden’s freedom of expression.”

CrimeWeb.net

CrimeWeb.net is a website dedicated to alerting users to recent crimes in their area. The website requires that users register with the site to receive updates and alerts using an email and a password. One reason for the registration is the site needs a place to send the alert. While the site may be good for alerting citizens of recent crimes the site itself is not very easy to use. Searching the site for specific crimes in an area is made tedious because they use text fields and drop down menus. An overhaul of the user interface is needed to keep pace with modern websites. The information I did find was very detailed, including pictures of suspects, incident information and phone numbers of local law enforcement to call in tips. A link to FBI data is provided on the site, however it is a direct link to the FBI’s website and not FBI data provided on the CrimeWeb site itself. The information on CrimeWeb is excellent, finding what you are looking for is difficult.

CrimeReports.com

CrimeReports.com is a useful website for crime statistics. The site is very user friendly;  starting at the homepage all you have to do is enter your ZIP or city and state and the site displays the most common crimes in your are over the past fourteen days using an embedded Google Map. There is the ability to filter by type of crime, time period and distance. The site also has an Analytics tab for those who are real stats junkies. Along with the website the company has also provided an iPhone APP, for those on move. This is one of the easiest sites to navigate and provides a great public service.

UK Soldier Throws Back A Live Grenade

From the Helmand Blog

Rifleman McKie

Rifleman McKie sustained fragmentation injuries to his right arm and face as the grenade exploded mid air, close to where he stood.

Fragmentation also hit his Platoon Commander Captain Graeme Kerr who sustained injuries to his leg and who is recovering at Selly Oak Hospital in the UK.

“We were in a high position on a compound roof. There was no way you could throw yourself off and not get injured, so I made a decision to pick up the grenade and throw it off the roof. And I threw it quite deliberately. I tried to throw it properly, to clear the roof. I didn’t want to do it half arsed and have them throw it back at us or anything like that. I remember thinking that if I didn’t pull this off, it was going to hurt. But at that stage I was pretty much committed.

American-born Al-Qaida spokesman Calls on US Muslims to Attack America

Adam Gadahn, who grew up on a goat farm in Riverside County, California, and converted to Islam at a mosque in nearby Orange County, on Sunday encouraged Muslims serving in the U.S. armed forces to emulate the Army major charged with killing 13 people in Fort Hood. In a 25-minute video Adam Gadahn described Maj. Nidal Hasan as a pioneer who should serve as a role model for other Muslims.

Gadahn said, “Brother Nidal is the ideal role-model for every repentant Muslim in the armies of the unbelievers and apostate regimes”. Gadahn, also known as Azzam al-Amriki, was dressed in white robes and wearing a white turban as he called for attacks on what he described as “high-value targets.”
