German Officials Arrest Suspected Suitcase Bomber
NY Sun ^ | August 21, 2006 | AARON KIRCHFELD

German police on Saturday arrested a 22-year-old Lebanese student suspected of placing a suitcase holding a bomb made of gasoline and propane gas on a train last month.

Police arrested the man at a train station in Kiel, a northern German port city where he lives, early Saturday, interior minister of the state of Schleswig-Holstein, Ralf Stegner, said at a televised press conference. He has been in Germany since 2004 and studies mechanical and electrical engineering, Mr. Stegner said. Another man, suspected of placing a similar bomb on a train the same day, is still at large.

The man being held is "in all likelihood" one of two suspects seen in surveillance videos released to the public on Friday as part of the investigation, Mr. Stegner said, adding that the arrest did not come from a tip from the public. He did not name the suspect.

In the videos, two men are shown on July 31 each carrying a suitcase at Cologne train station before boarding local trains from the same platform.The suitcases were later found on a train to Hamm in western Germany from Aachen and to Koblenz from Mönchenngladbach about 75 miles to the north.

The suspects are thought to be part of a domestic terrorist network, Mr. Stegner said, citing federal prosecutor Monika Harms. Ms. Harms was cited by the DPA news agency as saying the arrested man was 21 years old.

"The second suspect is still at large, so the threat persists," the president of the Federal Criminal Police, Germany's most senior police official, Jörg Ziercke, said. "We don't know how the second suspect will react."

All European life died in Auschwitz
By Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez(*)
---------
I walked down the street in Barcelona, and suddenly discovered a terrible truth:

Europe died in Auschwitz. We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims.

In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, and talent. We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world.

The contribution of this people is felt in all areas of life: science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world. These are the people we burned.

And under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride.

They have turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world, drowning in filth and crime. Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of their naive hosts. And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition.

We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for hoping for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs.

What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe.

*****EDIT**** I believe we may have found the origins of this article.

TAIF, 22 August 2006 — Police in Taif caught a woman violating the law by being behind the steering wheel of a moving car, the Al-Jazirah newspaper reported yesterday.

The woman, an Arab foreigner married to a Saudi man, was immediately arrested. The husband was called to the police station to pick up his spouse.

The cops instructed the husband to make sure his wife does not repeat such a terrible crime as driving a car, which, according to the defenders of the law can lead to immoral behavior.
