Hostage drama at Texas synagogue
This is a developing story…
*update 11:30pm*
An armed suspect claiming to have bombs in unknown locations took a rabbi and three others hostage at the Congregation Beth Israel in Colleyville, a source familiar with the situation told ABC News. One hostage was released uninjured at about 5 p.m. local time, Colleyville police said.
At about 9:30 p.m. local time, Abbott tweeted, “Prayers answered. All hostages are out alive and safe.”
Original story:
Authorities said a man took hostages Saturday during services at a Texas synagogue where the suspect could be heard ranting in a livestream and demanding the release of a Pakistani neuroscientist who was convicted of trying to kill U.S. Army officers in Afghanistan.
The Colleyville Police Department tweeted Saturday afternoon that it was conducting SWAT operations at the address of Congregation Beth Israel, northeast of Fort Worth.
At least four hostages were believed to be inside the synagogue, according to two law enforcement officials who were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation and who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity. The synagogue’s rabbi was believed to be among the hostages, one of the officials said.

Hacker altered chemicals in Oldsmar Florida water supply to ‘damaging’ levels, sheriff says.. they saw the mouse moving on the computer screen!!
A hacker was able to successfully alter the levels of chemicals in Oldsmar’s water supply to ‘potentially damaging’ levels Friday, officials said.
Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri said on Friday morning a plant operator at Oldsmar’s water treatment facility noticed someone remotely accessed the computer system he was monitoring.
The computers are set up for allowing remote access to select people to troubleshoot problems, so the operator didn’t think much about the incident.

This low-budget Aussie horror film THE KILLING GROUNDS is getting rave reviews overseas
This low-budget Aussie horror film THE KILLING GROUNDS is getting rave reviews overseas:
Australian movies are often so much more real, brutal… startlingly hardcore to the core.. This movie seems the same. For as much lavish praise that the film is getting, it is also receiving this:
Critics have been quick to praise the fact that the violence in Killing Ground(although brutal) is never exploitative, something Power attributes to his time as a censor. “I’ve definitely had a long professional interest in how we watch violence. I wanted to make sure it wasn’t just a violent film but a film about violence and what violence does.”
Power feels movie violence is often — wrongly — presented as a heroic option.
“I wanted the film to ask the question ‘What would happen in real life? What would actually happen if I was faced with this threat?’ Because the answer is often different to what happens in the movies. This violence feels very real and I think that’s what people are responding to.”
I think back to one of the most famous Aussie films in my life: FORTRESS. As a kid, and to this day, that movie scared the wits out of me more than anything made in America.
This new movie seems like to could be the same:
What sets Killing Ground apart from other thrillers is its unconventional structure. The film intertwines three separate stories, seemingly in different times and spaces: Two lovers on a weekend getaway; a family in peril and a pair of redneck psychopaths baying for blood.

This is some good conspiracy ….
This video was from 2013. The maker thought it was the Hoover Dam.
Considering my previous post tonight about a REDDIT user days ago predicting a Oroville Dam failure, what if it was NOT the Hoover Dam.. what if it was what we are about to witness in real time. Now. Oroville… ?
