US Steps Up Security Following Attack in Britain

Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff made appearances on several television talk shows.

He told ABC's This Week program there is no indication of a linkage between the events in Britain and any specific attacks on the United States. "We do not have, at this point, specific, credible intelligence that there is an attack, a particular attack, focused on this country," he said.

But at the same time, speaking on CNN's Late Edition program, Chertoff said U.S. authorities are concerned about the threat of terrorism, especially in the coming months. "We have had a number of al-Qaida leaders quite publicly talking about how they want to carry out their threats against the West. So, given that and given the history that we have had over past summers, with attacks in Britain, I think we were clearly focused on this as a possibility," he said. Full story...

Yes I remember that, very sad, very disturbing, very disgusting!

I am thankful that we have NONE of them here where I live, either medical or otherwise.

You may be right.

UK: Bomb suspects on MI5 files (London and Glasgow bombing )

General web surfing for doctors/America, etc. brings up the following (and lots more):

SNIP:
Like Dearborn, Muslims in Chicago are also quickly gaining influence. Here, the Muslim community is distinguished by its high level of education and prosperity. Research conducted in the 1990s demonstrated that 16% of the Muslim community's members were medical doctors, 33% were engineers, 44% had doctorate degrees, 84% had at least a bachelor's degree, and only 2% had less than a high school education. Moreover, Muslims' contributions to Chicago were highlighted. For example, the architect of the John Hancock Center and the Sears Tower was a Muslim: Dr. Fazlur Rahman. There is hardly a hospital without a Muslim doctor on its staff and there is hardly an engineering or electronic equipment manufacturer without Muslim engineers.

SNIP:
...A majority of Masjids in North America are run by doctors, engineers, computer scientists, and businessmen...

http://www.soundvision.com/info/muslims/masjids.asp

SNIP:
...8. Encourage Muslims to penetrate the White House, specifically with Islamists who can articulate a marvelous and peaceful picture of Islam. Acquire government positions, get membership in local school boards. Train Muslims as medical doctors to dominate the medical field, research and pharmaceutical companies. Take over the computer industry. Establish Middle Eastern restaurants throughout the U.S. to connect planners of Islamization in a discreet way. Ever notice how numerous Muslim doctors in America are, when their countries need them more desperately than America?

SNIP:
...Pakistani and Indian Muslims, many of whom are skilled professionals such as doctors and engineers, have played an important role in the development of Muslim political groups in America and in lay leadership of mosque communities.

Well, we can only hope that he uses the prison time to think seriously about turning his life around. He is very talented.

[WestCoastGal]

Well he doesn’t look the worse for wear really except for a few extra bumps on his forehead. Must be more praying that his butt doesn’t get blown up one night.

Thank you Ernest and a blessed Independence Day to you.

[Rushmore Rocks]

From our back deck, we had a wonderful view of the fireworks at Mt. Rushmore last night. Had a bunch of neighbors over for blueberry martinis (yuk), strawberry daiquiris and white wine.....red, white and blue. In the spirit of patriotism, I think I might have overdone it a bit. Still feeling the after effects. LOL.

I spoke to some friends who actually braved the trip to the monument last night. Said security was super tight. Good thing.

Now we’re just waiting for some spot fires to show up in the forest from the fireworks. Hot and very dry here.

Man accused of rape hours after he left jail (illegal)
WMC-TV Memphis Channel 5 & AP ^ | July 4, 2007 | Associated Press

COLUMBIA, Tenn. (AP) - Maury County authorities are looking for a man they suspect raped a 15-year-old girl only hours after being released from jail.

Twenty-4-year-old Juan Villa has been in jail 11 times since 2001 on charges that include assault and public intoxication.

He was released late Friday night and authorities believe he committed rape just hours later. While investigating the crime, a 13-year-old girl also told deputies Villa raped her.

Villa is suspected of being in the country illegally and 13 other suspected illegal immigrants were arrested yesterday while agents searched for him.

Immigrant rights advocates have accused the department of racial profiling because it has detained about 80 illegal immigrants since May, including 25 in a single day.

Sheriff Enoch George says the immigrants were detained after deputies came across them during criminal investigations.

War On Terror: The Mercedes Jihad in London smashes the media-peddled myth that the terrorists are poor, uneducated and oppressed. At least five of the suspects are Muslim doctors.

Since 9/11, the PC elite have lectured us to avoid drawing a connection between the terrorists and Islam. Don’t blame their religion, we’re told. Blame poverty and ignorance.

The Islamic apologists claim there’s nothing in the Quran that justifies jihadi violence in the name of Islam. Apparently these devout doctors — all of whom practiced in Western hospitals — have found something in the Muslim holy book that does.

And it comes 3 days before 7-7-7. But I doubt that means anything. One of these days though- I am sure that something is going to happen.
