Killings in Kabul

Tuesday, September 18^th, 12 people died in Afghanistan because of a suicide bomber, and maybe more. The suicide bombing was most likely a retaliation to a video posted on the internet that mocked the Prophet Muhammad. A woman was the one who was driving the “bomb” vehicle, which is very rare in Afghanistan. 22 year old, Fatima, offered to be the suicide bomber. A spokesman for Islamic militant group, Haroon Zarghoon, said there is bound to be more attacks because of the video. Suicide bombing mainly occurs in the capital and is blamed on al-Qaida and the Taliban, but now, because of the video, there will be more in Afghanistan.

Last 7 words written by a 9/11 victim coming out from the past

In August of 2011, Denise Scott and her daughters were presented with a note that was written by Randy Scott, husband and father. The note had just seven words, “84^th floor, West Office, 12 people trapped,” It was thrown out the window, in hopes someone would find it and help them. A bank guard was going to give it to authorities but then the buildings collapsed. “The minute I saw it I didn’t need a DNA test, I saw the handwriting. It’s Randy’s handwriting.” Wife, Denise, said when she saw it. The note had a spot of blood on it. Today, the letter is displayed at the National September 11 Memorial and Museum for people to look at.

Boo Boo, a baby black bear, was rescued from an Idaho wildfire last week by firefighters trying to control the blaze. The firefighters found him on a trail and Boo Boo franticly ran up a tree even though his paws were burned. Boo Boo was 23 pounds when he was rescued and had no mother, the Idaho Humane Society doesn’t know whether to put him back in the wild or keep him in a zoo. The Humane Society said that people all over the country have been asking how he is doing and want to send money for his operations and food for him.
