10 arrested in joint terrorism task force raid....
SEATTLE, Wash. - Police and federal agents with an anti-terrorism task force arrested 10 people in south Seattle Thursday.
KOMO News, KATU's sister station, was at one location in the 7800 block of Rainier Avenue South where officers raided a barber shop and seized a computer and other possible evidence.

Sources tell KOMO News the building was one of 12 where search warrants were served as part of an ongoing investigation of the joint-terrorism task force.

We don't know if any arrests have been made at that location, but we do know that 10 arrests were made in total.

A search warrant issued by a King County judge said agents were looking for training manuals instructing fighting, shooting, assaulting or killing and any information of children training for urban warfare and the identity of possible witnesses and information confirming identity theft.

The U.S. Attorney's office says more papers will be made public Thursday afternoon.

2. I predict these types of raids will happen in all Dem. states which have a
mid-sized population. The Bush/GOP Crime Family are trying to intimidate these states and force/scare them into voting for the Crime Family.

Any person with a brain could figure out that there are hundreds of thousands of rual targets across America which just person could execute some kind of terrorism. They don't need to be in any kind of group. They don't need to be communicating with each other or with manuals.

6. BBV and vote audits...

... are being run by some folks from Washington state/Seattle. Kind of peculiar, huh? Raiding their home areas while they are out rooting out election fraud.

4. Terrorism defined loosely
A search warrant issued by a King County judge said agents were looking for training manuals instructing fighting, shooting, assaulting or killing and any information of children training for urban warfare and the identity of possible witnesses and information confirming identity theft.

There are plenty of groups fitting that bill here in L.A....

5. AP-10 Accused in Seattle Immigration Plot
SEATTLE - Terrorism task force agents arrested at least 10 Seattle-area residents Thursday, accusing them of taking part in a scheme to illegally bring people from the West African nation of Gambia into this country.



The men were scheduled to appear in federal court in the afternoon on bank and immigration fraud charges and weapons offenses.


A search warrant obtained by KOMO-TV in Seattle said agents searched a barber shop in Seattle, looking for training documents on urban warfare.
