Glenn Beck must reveal who told him a Saudi Arabian student was the “money man” behind the Boston Marathon bombing, a judge ruled Tuesday.  The right-wing commentator is fighting a defamation lawsuit filed by Abdulrahman Alharbi, who was injured in the April 15, 2013, attack that killed three people.  Beck continued to link the Saudi national to the attacks even after U.S. officials said publicly he'd been cleared.

U.S. District Court Judge Patti Saris ordered Beck and his producer to reveal the names of two Department of Homeland Security employees they said had linked Alharbi to the attack, Politico reported. Beck said in earlier depositions that he never spoke to the sources, and his producer said he wrote down quotes on Post-it notes that he threw away, according to the ruling.

The producer “testified that the sources did not explain when the alleged financing took place, how any funds were transferred, the amounts of financing, what the financing was used for, or how the financing was otherwise accomplished,” the ruling said.

Saris ruled Alharbi need only prove negligence by Beck in appearances on Fox News and his news website The Blaze. She rejected contentions by lawyers for Beck that Alharbi was a public figure at the time Beck made his comments.

New Issue?

Two police officers have been attacked with a machete outside a police station in Belgium, local authorities have said. The officers, both women, were assaulted in Charleroi, south of Brussels, on Saturday afternoon by an attacker shouting in Arabic, police said. 

The attacker was identified as a 33-year-old Algerian, who had resided illegally in Belgium since 2012, and was known to police for criminal offenses.

Lone wolf attacks with machetes, knives and axes against police and civilians have recently become more frequent in Europe, with similar incidents reported in France and Germany.

They are mainly carried by asylum seekers, who had recently arrived in Europe from the Middle East or Western Asia, may or may not have association with terror groups.

What is the answer? Hillary-Trump... any one?

What's New?

The feuds between Republican front-runner and members of the GOP establishment are a near-constant feature of the 2016 election season and for good reason. Trump has never wanted to play by Washington's rules, and party stalwarts never wanted him to be the nominee.  

The split in the Republican party is nothing new. It happens frequently. But this time  is very difficult for those who spent all their lives in the political game and here comes someone right out of nowhere.

Trump earlier in the week had declined to endorse Ryan and McCain, as well as New Hampshire Sen. Kelly Ayotte. He is using the same technique of keeping the Media around. His late endorsement to Ryan, and McCain does the same effect.

On the other  side is Hillary Clinton, the establishment. Now she faces all the establishment problems. Iraq, Syria, Libya, Economy, Taxes, Immigration, healthcare and Seniors who can't afford the high cost of Medicines. it is your choice.

Just a thought.

Doctor's Game?

Richelle Shetina, 53, was dating Dr Joseph Sonnier III in 2012

Dr. Thomas Dixon, a Texas-based plastic surgeon, was convicted in the murder of Lubbock pathologist Dr. Joseph Sonnier, who was found shot and stabbed to death in his home in 2012.

Prosecutors argued that Dixon was an obsessed ex who paid his friend Shepard to stalk and then kill Sonnier because Dixon was jealous that Sonnier was with Dixon's former girlfriend, Richelle Shetina.

Shepard stabbed and shot Sonnier July 10, 2012, after he arrived home from work and then, he said, drove to Dixon's house to tell him what happened.

Later, when police questioned Shepard, he said Dixon paid him three silver bars and gave him a box of expensive Cuban cigars in return for killing Sonnier. Pawn shop records show that Shepard had cashed in silver bars the day after the murder.

Dixon was arrested and charged with two counts of capital murder. Shepard had accepted a plea deal to testify against Dixon in exchange for pleading guilty to first-degree murder charges to avoid the death penalty. Shepard is serving a life sentence at a maximum security prison in west Texas.  

Doctors.....?  Just a thought.

Pele is a retired Brazilian footballer who has a net worth of $100 million. Pele has earned his net worth as one of the greatest soccer players of all time. The IFFHS International Federation of Football History and Statistics named him Football Player of the Century, after a vote in 1999.

French police check documents at the French-German border in Strasbourg.

A teenager, who the police said in a statement was a Norwegian national of Somali origin, stabbed the woman to death and injured five other people near the British Museum. Mental health may have been a factor in the attack, police said, but "terrorism remains one line of inquiry."

Police confirmed to CBS News that the woman killed in Wednesday's knife attack in central London was an American citizen.

Madrid wants to see changes made to the treaty governing the visa-free Schengen area, which would allow Spain to introduce border controls to stem the tide of militants returning from the Middle East, the country’s interior minister has said. Many other European Countries want the same.

Would European Countries start  building walls on the border?   Just a thought.

Libyan protester outside Downing Street, London, cries for an end to the bombing of Libya- 2011

The United Nations-backed Libyan government has announced that the U.S. military has begun conducting airstrikes against the Islamic State group at the government's request.

Fayez Serraj, the head of the U.N.-brokered presidency council, said in a televised statement that American warplanes attacked the IS bastion of Sirte, adding that no U.S. ground forces will be deployed.

"The presidency council, as the general army commander, has made a request for direct U.S. support to carry out specific airstrikes," he said. "The first strikes started today in positions in Sirte, causing major casualties."

The strikes mark the start of a more intense American role in the fight against IS in Libya, as the U.S. steps in to assist the fragile, U.N.-backed government there.  [AP]
