1) Waco, TX. Adrian MI
Seven arrested in FBI raids linked to Christian militia group
 WXYZ-TV reports that helicopters were spotted in the sky for much of
Saturday night, and agents set up checkpoints throughout the area.
Witnesses told the station that it was like a small army had descended
on the area. The Department of Homeland Security and the Joint Terrorism
Task Force are also involved in the raids.
One of the Hutaree members called a Michigan militia leader for
assistance Saturday after federal agents had already began their raid,
Lackomar said, but the militia member -- who is of Islamic decent and
had heard about the threats -- declined to offer help. That Michigan
militia leader is now working with federal officials to provide
information on the Hutaree member for the investigation, Lackomar said
Sunday.
"They are more of survivalist group and in an emergency
they withdraw and stand their ground. They are actively training to be
alongside Jesus," he said.
Dawud Walid, executive director of the Council on Islamic-American
Relations of Michigan, made an announcement Sunday during the group's
10th anniversary banquet about receiving a call from a network
journalist about an alleged threat against Muslims.
"Don't allow
this news to scare you away from practicing your faith," said Walid.

Illegal Aliens Murder Rancher near AZ border
After the brutal murder this weekend of a rancher near the
Arizona-Mexico border, former Congressman Tom Tancredo today called on
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to "reject politics and do
the right thing and send the National Guard to the border."
 Tancredo was visiting the area when the murder occurred. He spoke
Saturday afternoon at a Tea Party rally in Sonoita, Arizona, and met on
Sunday with a group of local ranchers concerned about deteriorating
conditions on the border.
"As Governor of Arizona, Napolitano deployed the National Guard to help
the Border Patrol do its job. Yesterday's murder of rancher Rob Krentz
on his own land 25 miles from the Mexican border makes it clear that
that job remains unfinished," said Tancredo.
"Three days ago, Napolitano told an audience at Arizona State University
that the border is more secure than ever," said Tancredo. "I challenge
her --- no I dare her to come to this community and try to sell that
lie. The residents here know better."
Tancredo pointed out that Obama has halted the construction of new
border fencing and halted the increase in Border Patrol manpower begun
under Bush.
"Now that Obama and Napolitano are talking openly of pushing a new
amnesty program, the border invasion has resumed. Mexicans and residents
in Guatemala and Honduras read those stories," Tancredo said. "If
Congress takes up an amnesty bill, the flood across the border will be
unstoppable."
Border Patrol spokesmen have confirmed that over the past three months,
apprehensions on the Arizona border have jumped over 25% from the same
period a year ago after a decline the previous year. The Tucson Sector
of the Border Patrol has also confirmed that over 20% of all persons
apprehended have prior criminal records in the U.S. The criminal
backgrounds of individuals in their country of origin are unknown.
