Germany, while investigating charges against nine islamic terrorists on their own soil, have conducted wide spread raids hoping to flush out more of the members of a group of islamists. Here's a portion of the article here at JPost:
This is an interesting story in that a group of islamist in that one area of Germany were reaching out to try and radicalize German converts to Islam - you know islam, that "religion of peace"...yeah the one that you get martyrdom training in the second week of your conversion.
This from the article:
I'm afraid the Germans have probably only exposed the very tip of the iceberg here and the only reason Germany hasn't had the rioting and violence that France has had is because German police don't particularly care about rules of engagement. But Germany is more than likely overdue for some terrorist attacks this summer - they have been living on borrowed time.
German police staged a series of raids Wednesday in an investigation of nine German citizens suspected of trying to win over converts to their radical version of Islam, prosecutors said.
Munich prosecutors said that 16 properties in various parts of the country were searched as they sought incriminating publications and other evidence. They included the apartments of the suspects.
They said the group originated in the southern town of Neu-Ulm, at the Multi-Kultur-Haus - an Islamic center that Bavarian authorities shut in December 2005, charging that it threatened the coexistence of Germans and foreigners as well as security in the country.
