ISIS group targets Minnesota cops on list
http://www.kare11.com/news/crime/isis-gr...t/83960212
Quote:The FBI Minneapolis Division has taken the lead in tracking down the source of a cyber attack on Minnesota law enforcement. Thirty-six officers from across the state were on a “wanted” or “kill” list by the “Caliphate Cyber Army.”
Quote:We are in consultation with our state and local partners about this situation,” said Kyle Loven, Chief Division Counsel of the FBI, Minneapolis. “We do take this matter very seriously as we would any threat against law enforcement personnel and our hope is to bring about a resolution to this matter sooner rather than later.”
Loven said a “resolution” would be to discover who was behind “putting out the information.” The closely guarded home addresses of the officers, their phone numbers and email addresses were revealed on the encrypted website “Telegram.”
Quote:The question on everyone’s minds is what criteria did the group use for targeting the specific individuals?
“That is something that we want to be able to answer in a very forthright manner,” said Loven. “Quite frankly, we are trying to work through some of these questions as we speak. So, hopefully, we are able to resolve that question as we move forward.”

RE: ISIS group targets Minnesota cops on list
It’s long been my theory that Minnesota “progressives” – especially here in the Twin Cities – are incapable of understanding the clear and present danger Islamic terrorism presents on a local level. For Minnesota “progressives” their entire life is a “safe space” right on the edge of a chasm.
They grow up in progressive families, then go on to 12 years of public education run by and for progressives. Then 4-8 years at a hyper-liberal St. Olaf or a Macalester, all theses years of growing up in an environment where frank discussion about Islam, and the local Somali Islamic community, is treated as a villain in a silent-picture melodrama. No realistic debate is tolerated.
Then these same progressives go on to careers in academia, public education, non-profits, or public sector unions, where people marinade in unquestioned “progressivism” for decades without a break, willfully ignoring Islamic terrorism and the other realities of Islam so anethema to liberals.

So?
They live a nice life, not worried about the irrational and minuscule possibility that they'll be killed by a terrorist? Oh...the hu...man...ity...

No worry, just a JV team according to the Chosen One.

I would think, by now, that Obama would give them their varsity jackets. I guess they have to take another country,

Another? I guess I missed which country they currently rule.

RE: ISIS group targets Minnesota cops on list
Has anyone else noticed how quite the MSM has been on anything going on in the middle East the last month or so ? I'm sure there hasn't been a let up on the terrorists part. Must be the MSM doesn't want to call attention away from the primaries and debates.
