#1 This reminds me of the the illusions fostered by local political groups concreting on the web. A 10-person lefty group in upper Washington State meets up with another 10-person group in lower WA and suddenly they have 20-person protests. From their perpective they've doubled in numbers; but the independent reality is that they are not more, and the actuality is that several are about to lose their dead-end jobs because they've skipped out of work too often. Besides, they are all going broke because they are spending considerably more on gasoline driving all over the landscape to protest the cause du jour.

Is it so also in this case, do y'all think?

#2 Since the evil doctor is an Egyptian who was also jailed for the killing of Sadat, I see very little newsworthy in this merger.

#3 This sounds like an extension of the practice of taking name of fallen comrades. Now they are using the names of defunk terror groups. I vote the next be called red september, it always had a frightening ring to it. Or Saladin.
