Can you say Religion of Peace?

As far as Radical Islam goes… there is no such thing as a Lone wolf. The wolves are all coming from the same pack!

Police in Nassau County confirmed the potential suicide on the LIRR tracks, but did not confirm that the death is connected to the beheading.

There was no clear connection between the deadly incident and terrorism as of Tuesday night.

However, law enforcement sources reportedly told NBC New York that police are investigating the incident as a murder-suicide. The sources confirmed a woman in her 60s was found with her head severed outside a Farmingdale apartment.

Officials reportedly believe the man found dead on the LIRR tracks could be the deceased woman’s son.

LIRR also confirmed on Twitter that an “unauthorized person” was struck by a train, delaying the Ronkonkoma line.

How Common Is Your Birthday

A chart posted online purports to show the most common birthdays for babies to be born in.

The graphic, created by a user on Reddit, was based off data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

According to the chart, most babies seem to be born in the month of September, about nine months following the holiday season.

In contrast, actual holidays are the least-common dates for new births, the chart reveals.

MoveOn.org Petitioned To Keep Boko Haram Off Terrorist List

Update:
They did take it down as expected. Here is the cached version of the page.

From Gateway Pundit:

The far left is suddenly outraged at the Nigerian Islamist terrorist group Boko Haram. This came after the Islamist group kidnapped over 200 school girls in northeastern Nigeria. Michelle Obama tweeted out this sad-faced picture in support for the girls.

But it wasn’t that long ago the left was petitioning in support of Boko Haram.

Hillary Clinton Refused To Designate Boko Haram A Terrorist Group

The Mistress of Death - Hillary Clinton Refused To Designate Boko Haram A Terrorist Group

What difference at this point does it make?

From The Blaze:

President Barack Obama this week called Nigeria’s Boko Haram group, which last month kidnapped more than 200 schoolgirls, “one of the worst regional or local terrorist organizations.” But according to a new report in the Daily Beast, the State Department under Hillary Clinton for two years “fought hard” against adding the group believed to have links to Al Qaeda to its list of foreign terrorist organizations.

Daily Beast senior correspondent Josh Rogin reported Wednesday that other government agencies, including the CIA, along with more than a dozen members of Congress had urged the State Department when Clinton was Secretary of State to officially designate the Nigerian Islamist group a terrorist organization.

“The one thing she could have done, the one tool she had at her disposal, she didn’t use. And nobody can say she wasn’t urged to do it. It’s gross hypocrisy,” a former senior U.S. official who was involved in the debate told the Daily Beast. “The FBI, the CIA, and the Justice Department really wanted Boko Haram designated, they wanted the authorities that would provide to go after them, and they voiced that repeatedly to elected officials.”

The reason why, it seems, is there was concern that designating the group officially as a world class terrorist organization would have just added to its stature.
