Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in Los Angeles 41 years ago today by Sirhan Sirhan, who is rotting away in Corcoran State Prison up near Fresno. I think that Charlie Manson is in the same facility.

I would say that this was the first act of Arab terrorism on US soil. And the ‘O’ is kissing ass to the Muslim world.

The 25-year-old man was arrested at a flat in the Whalley Range area of Blackburn, Lancs, shortly before 7am on Tuesday.
He is believed to be a friend of two other men arrested by counter-terrorism officers at Manchester Airport on August 14.
The pair, who had been about to board a flight to Finland, live less than 100 yards from the home of the suspect held on Tuesday.
A fourth suspect, also from Blackburn, was arrested in Church, near Accrington, shortly after the arrests at Manchester Airport.
All four men are being questioned about a posting on an Arabic website that often carries messages from senior members of al-Qaeda.
The message, written in English, allegedly included a threat to target “all the political leaders, especially Tony Blair and Gordan (sic) Brown”.
It appeared only briefly on January 24 and purported to have been written by Shaykh Umar Rabie al-Khalaila, who described himself as “the leader of al-Qaeda in Britain”.
The latest man to be arrested changed his name when he converted to Islam four years ago.
