  1. I was just going to observe that it’s been a blessed few weeks since we’ve had a murderous jihadi attack, when I ran across this interesting news snippet.

    After the passage of a whole year, we’ve discover some pertinent facts about a murderous rampage — facts that oddly seem not to have been reported during Obama’s regime. Remember, fake news involves sins of omission as well as commission.

    I wonder if this incident ever got included in the official tally of muslim extremist attacks? Somehow I suspect not. . . . Not when it takes a full year for the information to be released.

    The military veteran who killed three law enforcement officers in Baton Rouge last summer left behind a suicide note, a prayer from an Islamic holy book and an online trail of his rage against police.

    . . . the 29-year-old black man from Kansas City, Mo., traveled to Baton Rouge and ambushed law enforcement officers outside a convenience store and car wash near police headquarters.

    Armed with a semi-automatic rifle that he legally purchased, Long fatally shot three officers and wounded three others on July 17 before tactical officers killed him, ending a gun battle that lasted nearly 14 minutes that Sunday morning.

    Police found a suicide note in Long’s rental car. . . .

    He also left a printout in his car from an Islamic holy book that was mostly in Arabic.

Hans Bethe, a physicist who headed up the theoretical division at Los Alamos during the development of the first atomic bombs (I learned this week that “Fat Man” was named in honor of Winston Churchill), did important work on the development of the H-bomb, and won the 1967 Nobel Prize in physics, was born July 2, 1906. Have a blast today.
