See link below......... 4 sentences up from the bottom row.

Latest is that Interpol has now issued a global alert after Alkaida/al qaida linked prison breaks.

INTERPOL issued a “global security alert advising increased vigilance for terrorist activity” on Saturday. While the U.S. government has warned of al Qaeda’s terrorist plotting against embassies and consulates, ordering 22 diplomatic facilities closed over the weekend, INTERPOL is alarmed by al Qaeda’s role in several large-scale jailbreaks.
Al Qaeda's flag flies over the U.S. embassy in Tunisia.

The alert was issued after “a series of prison escapes across nine INTERPOL member countries in the past month alone, including in Iraq, Libya and Pakistan.” INTERPOL highlighted the “suspected Al Qaeda involvement in several of the breakouts,” which “led to the escape of hundreds of terrorists and other criminals.”

The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), an al Qaeda affiliate, claimed responsibility for an assault on two Iraqi prisons in late July. According to the Washington Post, “U.S. officials put the number of escapees at between 500 and 600, including a significant number of al Qaeda operatives.”
Days later, the Pakistani Taliban led an assault on a prison in Dera Islmail Khan. Nearly 250 prisoners were reportedly freed, including dozens of hardened terrorists. As Bill Roggio pointed out, the assault was likely led by “Ansar al Aseer, a joint unit created by” the Pakistani Taliban and the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU).

" I do not recall on July 23, most recently, our major news channels mentioning what the Washington Post printed."

Our media on that day was preoccupied. Ten days earlier a certain trial had ended and nothing much was seen on the media about killing in Syria, Egypt, Libya or any warnings. Priorities !!!

What does it take to thicken the plot? Is it something like making gravy?

. We forum posters have a need and right to talk about what is happening. I think our discourse is civil and feel a little bit concerned when we are...well um..

Agree with Gracie, that's why I cryptically added similarities to "Wag The Dog" to our current affairs

I still think they lied to the American people about what really happened last September 11 in Bengazi with our ambassador Stevens. Immediately after it happened, I read numerous Arabic newspapers and it was shocking, to say the least , what occurred to the ambassador and how he really met his death.

That is something I didn't read that he was harmed awfully. I can only imagine that they tortured him or used his body as a terrible trophy. I haven't been able to really figure the whole thing out but it feels like something really bad has been blatantly hushed. I am NOT usually a person who sees a conspiracy, but this one feels very wrong.

What IS going on in this world???? Why don't you hear the straight truth on American channels? Good idea to watch BBB.

Senior Citizen, I am being cryptic again, I checked out the incident on the internet within hours of the news breaking here. I saw via foreign tv news what REALLY happened. Imagine my disbelief and shock when the "official" version here, was death by smoke inhalation while our ambassador was in the "safe room". yeah, RIGHT.
