SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. -- A child rapist who admitted to preying on nearly 20 children is now a free man. Kareem Merthe was released during a hearing in Seminole County Friday morning. His mother collapsed outside the courtroom and later died. Officials say his mother went outside to get some fresh air when she collapsed. The 26-year-old preacher's son had been locked up for nine years and as a young teen, Merthe admitted to preying on children as young as 4 years old. He told investigators he raped them at his father's church in Sanford. Kareem Merthe had nothing to...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Authorities say the unusual behavior of a New York truck driver who was pulled over for speeding and then shot during a confrontation with a state trooper has prompted them to investigate possible terrorist ties. Mohammed Medhat Karim, 46, was pulled over Monday by Tennessee Highway Patrol Trooper Thomas C. Kilpatrick for speeding on U.S. Highway 64 in Wayne County, about 80 miles southwest of Nashville. As Kilpatrick was returning with the citation, authorities said Karim backed into the trooper's car, and "there was a confrontation at that time." Kilpatrick fired several shots, striking the driver...

September 15, 2006 Berkeley, California As you know, Kareem/Scooter has issued a fatwa against me and has already made one attempt on my life. This has made living under the same roof very stressful, but I need his rent money. In spite of sweeping the house for explosives and booby traps constantly, Kareem and his two fellow jihadists have managed to carry out several more attacks against me. The other day, while salting my meatloaf, the top of the shaker came off and dumped the entire contents, leaving my meal ruined and me badly shaken. Later, when I started my...

September 1, 2006 Berkeley, California As most of you know, Scooter has converted to Islam and is now going by the name, "Kareem Bakr Gilad." The changes that have come along with this conversion are a mixed bag. On the positive side, he no longer curses like a sailor, has quit drinking, doesn't spend so much time with Pepe, and in general seems very spiritual. On the negative side, he treats all women badly, calls everyone but his fellow Muslim friends infidels, shuns soaps and perfumes, wears weird clothes, is constantly on the floor praying, and of course is wearing...

Liberals on Capitol Hill and in the media are screaming, "Where are the weapons?" Since the White House had argued that disarming Saddam was the main reason for going to war, not finding his forbidden weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) all lined up like prizes at a seaside shooting gallery has excited the president's political enemies to cry foul. Ewan Buchanan, spokesman for chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix, assures Insight that "it's far too early to tell" whether forbidden weapons remain in Iraq or where they might be. "It doesn't surprise me that U.S. forces haven't found anything yet....

<p>TIKRIT, Iraq — The leader of a prominent clan from near Saddam Hussein’s birthplace turned over scores of weapons and explosives as a show of solidarity with American forces, the first head of an area tribe to voluntarily disarm his people at the request of the Army. Sheik Al-Bo Aiesa Muzahin Ali Kareem said he turned in more than 80 AK-47 assault rifles, three mortars, three rocket propelled grenades and three cases of explosives Sunday because he now felt secure with the presence of the Army 4th Infantry Division in the area — and because it is time to move forward.</p>
