Gates of Vienna News Feed 9/28/2012

Gates of Vienna News Feed 9/28/2012Early this morning a loud explosion was heard outside the Jewish center in the southern Swedish city of Malmö. When police arrived they found the door had been damaged by explosives and paving stones, which had apparently been used in an attempt to batter it down. Two “youths” were later arrested as suspects in the crime.

In other news, the semi-official Iranian news agency was fooled by an Onion satire saying that rural American voters would prefer to vote for President Ahmadinejad over Barack Obama. The Fars news agency reported the spoof as fact.
