NEEDLESS to state, Al-Libi is a jihadi and a propagandist.

Thank you, Cindy.

Because of our long association with the Temple here, we nicknamed her "lecha", which means "beloved" in Hebrew. She was our beloved baby.

[Cindy]

What a beautiful name, backhoe.

I cried a lot when our old dog died.
She's buried under her favorite tree
where she used to chase the quail
and pheasants to.

Now when I see them gathered under
the three, I just smile.

Minneapolis carjacker "mentally ill, suffers from depression and hasn't being taking his medication"
"Lately he has been out of control." Yes, you could say that. An update on this story: "Carjacking spree leaves woman in critical," from KSTP.com, with thanks to Paul:

A woman is in critical condition after a wild chain of events in north Minneapolis Wednesday morning.
Police said around 7:55 a.m., Ismail Yassin Mohamed, 22, was driving a stolen black Chevy Cavalier when he began intentionally ramming a blue and white taxi cab for several blocks until the cab crashed.

The cab driver and a female passenger managed to escape from the cab, but the passenger was critically injured....

After the cab crashed, police said Mohamed took off in the Cavalier and then crashed into a business. He got out of the car and stole a school van. The driver of the van managed to get an 8-year-old boy off of the vehicle before Mohamed stole it.

Later, Mohamed crashed the van into another group of cars. Authorities said Mohamed was trying steal another car when witnesses pinned Mohamed down and waited for authorities....

5 EYEWITNESS NEWS spoke with the suspect's mother who said her son is mentally ill, suffers from depression and hasn't being taking his medication. She said "lately he has been out of control."

Mohamed is currently in police custody and has a prior conviction for robbery in 2003.

Paul also notes that these two stories do not give the suspect's name:

Minneapolis car rampage driver: "Allah made me do it"

Shades of Mohammed Reza Taheri-azar, who wrote lengthy treatises explaining his hit-and-run murder attempts as fidelity to the Qur'an, and echoing the initial statement made by Omeed Aziz Popal -- which was later discounted by investigators.

"Rampage behind the wheel leaves trail of destruction," by David Chanen and Anthony Lonetree in the Star Tribune, with thanks to Tim:

As Arie Ford went inside to gather her two children from her Minneapolis home Wednesday morning, a man stole her idling car. A few blocks away, he repeatedly rammed that car into a cab driven by her brother and injured a well-known 79-year-old North Side clothes store owner.
Within minutes, the man was at the intersection of N. 7th Street and Plymouth Avenue, bouncing off cars and between buildings, stealing a van and then crashing that, too, police said. The five minutes of chaos ended when a group captured the man and held him down until police arrived.

Witness Jeffrey Ford said the suspect's father told officers the suspect had mental problems.

"He could have hurt a lot of people," said Arie Ford, who isn't related to Jeffrey Ford.

Lois Schupmann, the business owner who was injured when the stolen car rammed the cab, was in satisfactory condition Wednesday evening. Nobody else was hurt.

When asked by investigators why he went on the crime spree, the 22-year-old suspect said, "Allah made me do it," according to a source with knowledge of the case.

Driver killed, boy wounded after illegal immigrants fired on [in southern Arizona]
FOX11AZ.com ^ | February 1, 2007

Posted on 02/01/2007 1:44:48 PM PST by SwinneySwitch

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) -- A driver was fatally shot and a boy wounded in a dispute between human smugglers in southern Arizona, authorities said.

The Pinal County Sheriff's Department said David Norris Jr. was driving a vehicle containing a dozen illegal immigrants Saturday in an Eloy farm field when four heavily armed men in a white full-size van began firing on them.

Norris, 46, was killed and a 12-year-old boy in Norris' vehicle was shot in the leg, authorities said.

The boy was reported Wednesday to be in stable condition at University Medical Center in Tucson.

Sheriff's spokesman Michael Minter said all 12 illegal immigrants fled from the van when the attack ended and all but one were found.

Minter said authorities were seeking the public's help to find the shooters, who wore green camouflage pants and shirts with military-style berets.

I'm so very sorry for your loss backhoe. It definitely brings a tear to my eyes and a weight to my heart. My boy, Strider, is at my feet staring at me as if to say "send backhoe a hug from me".

I'm so very sorry for your loss backhoe. It definitely brings a tear to my eyes and a weight to my heart. My boy, Strider, is at my feet staring at me as if to say "send backhoe a hug from me".

I greatly appreciate that.

We just don't have enough time with our animal friends, and the clock runs so fast for them.

I swore my next pet would be a parrot ( so he'd survive Miss Emily and me ) that I would teach to cuss fluently, and will him to my nieces-- but I'm already thinking of another dog. There are so many, that need a home.
