#10  Associated Press:
An investigation was launched last year when the Secret Service tipped off the prosecutor's office that three young men from The Hague were interested in taking part in fighting for Islamic extremists.

The three had traveled to the Caspian Sea state of Azerbaijan where they were arrested by local authorities and sent back to the Netherlands under a police escort. They were released and sent home, the statement said.

"Some of the suspects are believed to have been trying to obtain false travel documents for Iraq," the statement said. "National investigators are trying to establish whether they formed a terror organization."

Associated Press secrete sauce:
The arrests came at a time when surveys indicate the Dutch are growing less afraid of a terror attack in their country, two years after an Islamic extremist murdered filmmaker Theo van Gogh, whose movie "Submission," was considered blasphemous by many Muslims.

#9  Take back Germany?

Actually, the Pennsylvania Dutch came from all over Europe, essentially from wherever German was spoken up to around 1800. That included Eastern France and Switzerland as well.

#2  Well, we've caught all of the terrorists. I guess we can go back to normal, elect High Speaker Pelosi and start redistributing assets again.

#1  Six Budhists?

Six Amish?

Maybe it's six members of a cult that threatens women with rape if they refuse to wear clogs?
