Hmmm, my father’s people are and were Wisconsin farmers. There may, in fact, be a genetic connection after all :)

Police renew focus on Muslim cabbies WND hat tip Michael Authorities worry about 'taxi jihadists' in cities With the arrest of a Philadelphia taxi cab driver in the Fort Dix terror plot, authorities are paying closer attention to Muslim cabbies, many of whom are militant believers, WND has learned. Mohamad Ibrahim Shnewer, a U.S. citizen born in Jordan, was charged earlier this week with conspiring to kill at least 100 soldiers on U.S. soil. The FBI says the 22-year-old drove a cab in Philadelphia. "My intent is to hit a heavy concentration of soldiers," said Shnewer, the alleged mastermind of the terror plot. Muslims account for the majority of cab drivers in many major U.S. cities � including the nation's capital. And a number of them have ties to terrorism, federal and local authorities say. After 9/11, the U.S. Park Police, which enforces laws on federal roads leading into such places as CIA headquarters, ran a search of Islamic terror suspects against a database of traffic stops in the Washington, D.C., area going back decades. "It came back with a nearly 25 percent hit rate," a U.S. Park Police official said. "Many of them were cab drivers."
