Accuses of joining isis says he made a bad decision. Muhammad khweis was captured in iraq on monday. He now says he was convinced by a girl to go to mosul. Once he made it there, he found he hated and wanted to return to the u. S. And khweis says isis does not represent the true values of islam. The fbi now says that student Faisal Mohammad was inspired by isis well before going on a stabbing rampage last november. Investigates found isis propaganda on a laptop belonging to mohammed and that he had visited several terrorist web sites before launching his attack but they say he whacked alone when he stabbed and wounded four people before police shot and killed him. Now that lawsuit by the michigan driver accuse confidential killing six people turned out to be a hoax. The suit was supposedly filed by jason dalton who told police the uber app was controlling his mind. He denied filing the suit and didnt authorize anyone to do so on his behalf. Furthermore, the handwriting on the suit did not match daltons. Bizarre extreme weather across a number of states. We had an ice storm amid 60 degree temperatures in the south.

Maybe getting one to three inches of snow. Wow. Just in time for the first day of spring is sunday. Its unbelievable at this point were still having to deal with it.
