Europe
France: Tracking hundreds involved in potential terror sleeper cells
2015-02-18
[Ynet] La Belle France's top security official says the country is tracking hundreds of people believed to belong to possible sleeper cells for terror organizations. In an interview with The News Agency that Dare Not be Named, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve laid out the increasingly urgent question for intelligence services: How to identify when someone transforms from a disgruntled criminal into a terrorist and how to block that radicalization.

Cazeneuve wants new laws to give intelligence services more leeway to monitor electronic communications and is heading to the United States this week to talk to Internet giants about stemming online propaganda.
The Times of Israel quantifies it as "400 terror sleeper cell suspects".

#1  Brink dies whilst in route home after receiving award in Europe. Oh the irony and unspoken parallels. Meanwhile, SA President Jacob Zuma advocates the outlawing of foreign owned land and ISIS threatens Rome. We all know it's fate, Europe will either evict and separate itself from the Mohammedan, or it will die.

7 Feb 2-15 - South African writer Andre Brink, one of the most outspoken critics of the apartheid regime, has died.

Brink, 79, died on Friday night on board a flight to Cape Town after visiting Belgium where he had received an honorary doctorate, local media say.

Brink wrote in Afrikaans as well as English. His novels have been translated into more than 30 languages.

Some of his books, including A Dry White Season which was turned into a film, were banned in South Africa. Other novels include Looking on Darkness and Philida for which he was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2012.

Andre Brink was a literature professor at the University of Cape Town at the time of his death.
