…On this day in 1780 in the most infamous act of treason in American history, General Benedict Arnold attempted to turn the fort at West Point over to the British Army for a bribe consisting of a commission as a Brigadier General in the British Army and a cash reward of £20,000 (about $1.3M in 2009 dollars). However, Arnold's plot failed when British Major John André was captured as a spy by the Americans. John Andre was hanged; Benedict Arnold escaped and died in London in 1801.

The suspect in Saturday’s bombings in Manhattan and New Jersey has been captured after a shootout with police. A third bomb exploded in another part of New Jersey when police attempted to defuse it. All three are thought to be the work of Ahmad Khan Rahami, an Afghan immigrant who is now a US citizen. He reportedly hates America, and also does not care for homosexuals. However, all Americans breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that Mr. Rahami’s actions had nothing to do with Islam.

A knife-wielding man ran amok in a Minnesota mall last night, stabbing and wounding eight people before he was shot dead by an off-duty police officer. The perpetrator was a Somali-American who was alleged to have invoked Allah during his rampage, and asked at least one victim whether he was a Muslim before stabbing him. The incident had nothing to do with Islam. Meanwhile, investigators in New York and New Jersey are trying to discover a motive for yesterday’s bomb explosions, for which the Islamic State has claimed responsibility.

In other news, Angela Merkel’s party (the CDU) suffered its worst electoral defeat ever today in local elections in Berlin, receiving less than 20% of the vote. The SPD (socialists) gained the largest percentage, while AfD (Alternative für Deutschland, Alternative for Germany) received 14%.…
