Don't forget that Zacharias Moussouoi was nabbed in Minneapolis too! Just because there are not too many mosques in Minnesota does not mean they are not here. The number of Somali's in Minnesota is up in the many thousands. I think the mosque count is greatly understated.

"The number of Somali's in Minnesota is up in the many thousands."

That's true, for sure. OTOH, I don't believe there have been that many Somalis arrested for terrorist activities. I don't think they have time...they're all driving cabs in double shifts.

On the other hand, I saw three Mennonite women in full dress in a thrift store today. That's what I'm worried about.

I was in Minneapolis for the NCAA tournament in March and I recall one of our cab drives, a Somali, telling us in great detail of the huge Somali population in the state. It sounded totally random...a while back a few Somalis were traveling the country looking for a place to live, found Minneapolis, and decided it was a nice place. They sent word back home, and news traveled fast...now it is the largest (according to him) Somali population in the US.
