Dude.

You don't mess with boars, I still have the mental image of what a wild boar did to one of my uncle's mastiffs seared into my head. They are tough and vicious motherfuckers who will gore you guts out if they have the chance.

The boar not only killed three militants, they injured five others. And going off something Marq said, I think the anti-ISIS groups should spin this as evidence of God's displeasure with ISIS.

Now there even jokes that those feral hogs in Texas be conscripted for duty immediately.

Now it could be a legitimate reason why pigs would be off the menu for a while.

German army officer disguised himself as refugee to carry out terrorist attack, investigators say

BERLIN — Police on Wednesday arrested a German army officer suspected of posing as a Syrian refugee to carry out an attack that would be blamed on migrants.

According to the Frankfurt prosecutors in charge of the investigation, the 28-year-old, whose name wasn't revealed in accordance with local customs, lived an incredible double life: He registered as a Syrian refugee under a false name at the end of 2015 and subsequently claimed asylum in Bavaria, where he was assigned a place in a refugee shelter and even received benefits.

Austrian authorities had temporarily detained him earlier this year when he attempted to retrieve a loaded gun he had hidden in a restroom at Vienna airport in January.

The suspect, who held the rank of a lieutenant, was stationed in France, but he was arrested while undergoing training in southern Germany. He now faces charges of plotting a terrorist attack, fraud and violation of gun laws.

Welcome to Estalia, gentlemen.

And Germany seems to me like it would be one of the last countries to suddenly change their immigration views because of the man's plan.

Though this case could result in fixing the problems that let Lt.Shithead over there register in the first place. If he could do it, others almost certainly have, though mostly for money and not terrorism purposes.

Armed police foiled a couple of terror plots in downtown London. One case followed the next in quick succession.

Shots were fired.

This is disgracefully inefficient He should have done like Brevik and killed them at a party youth summer camp.

Horrible jokes aside, this is exactly what I meant when I quoted "We're gonna raise a lot of flags half-mast." Trumplings will not go gently into obscurity: as the unreality of their world collapses around them, they will take people with them, they will lash out. Fuckers are insane.

[up] "radicalization" is the phrase used by the media whenever a Muslim man living in the West grows disillusioned and anxious with his daily life to the point where he lashes out by associating himself with a terrorist network or committing an act of public violence. You'll notice that whenever a white man shooting several black people is reported, the phrase is suspiciously not used as if only Muslims can be "radicalized".

[up]Not just radicalization, but also terrorism. You'll almost never see a white guy getting called a terrorist, that's a label exclusively referred to Muslims especially the brown ones.
