Thanks!

I’ve heard 8 dead, more wounded. Like the article says...interesting they haven’t given a name or a description (particularly if he’s at large) or circumstances or *anything*.

I would think shooting at a police helicopter (and hitting it) is pretty unusual too.

Yep got my full ATTN!:

This is interesting on a number of levels... but especially because of what is found nearby in an area called Red House:

During the Beltway Sniper crisis, back in the fall of 2002, a series of articles in The Washington Times described John Allen Muhammad’s conversion to Islam, and his later break with the Nation of Islam (the articles are no longer available, but extracts have been preserved here). Apparently the NOI was not militant enough for Mr. Muhammad, and he left it to become involved with a group called {{{Jamaat ul-Fuqra }}}(Arabic for “community of the impoverished”), a terrorist organization founded by a notorious Pakistani cleric, Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani.

BUMP!!!

What drew my eye in the article was the mention of a Jamaat ul-Fuqra compound in Red House, Virginia. Red House?! I know Red House — a small village in rural Charlotte County.
