Iran seeks swap of Brits for suicide attackers

Report says 40 Revolutionary Guard 'volunteers' held by UK

Iran apprehended British military personnel and Navy vessels earlier this week in order to secure release of 40 "suicide operations volunteers" held by the UK, according to an Iranian Revolutionary Guard source.

The source told the London Arabic-language daily Al-Sharq Al-Awsat that the British Army command in Iraq received the demand from the Revolutionary Guard, reported the Middle East Media Research Institute.

According to the source, the content of the message was very simple: "Release our comrades, whom you are holding, and we will release your soldiers."

Woman Who Drove Around O'Hare Airfield Not Charged

No charges are expected against a woman who commandeered an aircraft tug and drove it around the airfield at O'Hare International Airport for several minutes before being apprehended by police on Thursday.

The young woman, whose exact age was not available, appeared extremely disoriented and unaware of her surroundings when police caught up with her on the O'Hare airfield at about 12:45 p.m. Thursday, Aviation Department spokeswoman Monique Bond said.

The woman had somehow gained access to the airfield and climbed into a tug, the vehicle used to tow aviation equipment, Bond said. She was driving around just a few minutes before she was spotted by airport workers and apprehended by airport law enforcement officers. They knew she did not belong there because she did not have an identification badge, Bond said. The woman also did not have a ticket on her.

The woman was questioned by police in what Bond called a "very disoriented interaction." No charges would be filed, she said.

The woman drove the tug near a runway that was not being used at the time, and Bond said workers or passengers were never in danger. She said the journey was confined mostly to the area by the United Airlines gates.

Bond said that the ability of law enforcement to capture the woman so quickly showed that the airport's "multi-layered" security procedures were effective.

"The system worked," she said.

Aviation officials believe they know how the woman accessed the airfield without a badge or ticket, but Bond would not reveal that information so as not to give anyone any ideas.

The woman was never employed by O'Hare, Bond said. She could not confirm if the woman was released to her home or if she was being held at a hospital or other facility.

I SP still on?

[Cindy]

No hablo espanol?

Ok, well if you lived in California, you would probably know a few words or two en espanol.

[mindspy]

Didn't that jihadi or osama message contain 44 and 4004?

[Cindy]

Sorry.

A couple Russian sites and an Arentinian (.ar) site looked interesting from that Google search.

[StillProud2BeFree]

Yes I am :)

[Velveeta]

Ooops. I meant: IS SP still on the radio?

[Calpernia]

Ok....thanks to the rabbit hole Cindy sent me down ;)

/joshing

Anyone have insight on what this symbol may mean?

[Velveeta]

Cool. I'm tuned in!

[Quix]

I think there was quite a discussion about 4's in the msg. I don't recall them. They were rather cryptic and codified, if my sense from memory is right.

We shall see what it all means, if anything.

[Alamo-Girl]

I join in prayer for your son and his fiance and for you and the family!

[nw_arizona_granny]

I liked the stories about the homeless, in Detroit, I think that were hauled in rented - WHITE vans to vote, the reward a package of cigarettes.........

It was on the news for hours, at the end of the day, someone decided to investigate and lo an behold, not a van could be found, they were all gone.

And the democrats got away with it.

It pleases me that the kerry bunch has been caught and it is now exposed that their support group ACT, is HIRING ex-cons, to go and register people to vote.

Yes, a fact, I didn't write down the name, but it is a group that helps ex cons find jobs (not against that), but it is difficult to understand why they would hire rapists, robbers, and criminals of every type and send them to knock
on my door and ask personal questions.

The democrats are paying criminals to line up victims!

Yes, that is granny's opinion.

[Calpernia]

I lost my sound drivers in a recent hacking attack. I'm in the middle of debating fixing this CPU or getting a new computer.

[Calpernia]

I was being a wiza guy :D

[Oorang]

You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it.

[mindspy]

I think it is the go code. The sites go to the 404 page thing when down. So before an attack the sites go down, therefore the 44 or 4004 is the go code. Just my thoughts, I suppose we shall soon find out, ugh.

Now that explains the interest from NJ and CA (that I know of) to allow 'former' criminals voting rights.

[Velveeta]

Fix it, *and* get a new one! Then if one goes down...

It keeps funds flowing to the TLA (Trial Lawyer Assoc.)
