“US deports Bangladeshi coup man”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “A former Bangladeshi army officer has been deported from the United States and then arrested on his arrival in the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka.
Mohiuddin Ahmed was convicted in absentia in 1998 for his role in the 1975 military coup and assassination of President Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
Ahmed spent several years fighting his deportation from the US.
He was one of 15 people found guilty of killing Sheikh Mujibur. Most of them were sentenced to death.
Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was the figurehead of the fight for the creation of Bangladesh which had been East Pakistan.”
*Are Hebollah and Hamas only in foreign lands or are they here in America, too?*
Absolutely here.
MONTREAL -- Members of Montreal's Jewish community are feeling threatened following the third suspicious fire in less than a month at a popular summer retreat north of Montreal. A private home at the Val-David, Que., camp, about a one-hour drive from Montreal, was destroyed by fire early yesterday. No one was injured in the fire, but police say two other buildings were broken into and it appears there was an attempt to set one ablaze. "More and more as the day goes on I can certainly rule that it was an accidental fire," said provincial police spokesperson Jayson Gauthier. "We're hoping that there will be some evidence within those residences that could lead to some arrests."
Earlier this month, a rabbi's summer home at the camp was razed by flames only days after a smaller fire broke out nearby. Investigators say that both incidents were arson. "It is still too early to say if there is a link between the events," Gauthier said. He added that police are hesitant to label the fires as hate crimes, saying there have been other criminal fires in the Val-David area recently.
Members of Montreal's Hasidic community say they feel targeted by the fires. "We're very, very concerned not only for the safety of our property... but about the personal safety of our families and our children," said Mayer Feig, a spokesman for Montreal's Hasidic community.

“White House Press Offices Evacuated”
Monday, June 18, 2007
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “WASHINGTON — The White House Conference Center and buildings surrounding Blair House were evacuated Monday after a K-9 unit made a “hit” on a car parked in front of Lafayette Park, across from the White House.”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “U.S. officials said D.C. Metro Police were using an abundance of caution in calling in an explosives and ordnance team after what is reportedly a bomb scare. The police dog apparently homed in on a gray minivan outside the press corps quarters.
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert had just arrived in Washington, D.C., for a stay at Blair House, where foreign dignitaries often reside while visiting the president. Ehud is in town for talks with U.S. officials on the recent dissolution of the Palestinian government, and security has been heightened because of his visit. His vehicle motorcade remained outside Blair House while the evacuation occurred.”

White House has been evacuated, turn on the news.
Per Neal Cavuto of Fox News:
The White House has issued an “all clear.”
Answer: The police dog apparently homed in on a gray minivan outside the press corps quarters.
As recently as last week, terrorists used falsely marked vehicles in an attempt to carry out their missions. A 'press vehicle' in America is a very easily created cover vehicle.
Yes!! There has been practice runs, one would think.
Yep...DITTO that.

Feds fail to act on soaring reports of foreign-born in jail

Police agencies in Colorado turned over the names of at least 15,000 suspected illegal immigrants to federal authorities during the second half of last year. Their offenses ranged from minor infractions to first-degree felonies but each referral was in compliance with a new state law designed to get tough on illegal immigration.
Law enforcement officials, however, debate whether the new law is having its intended effect.
They said they doubt the enhanced reporting has led to any more deportations of criminal illegal immigrants.
“I still sense that there is simply no infrastructure in the federal system in place to actually do anything with these undocumented aliens beyond the occasional, token deportations,” said Aurora Police Chief Daniel Oates.
The law, enacted by the legislature in 2006 as part of a statewide crackdown on illegal immigration, required all cities and counties to report any suspected illegal immigrants arrested or cited for crimes to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency.
