One stupid 14-year-old now has a life on Interpol’s watch list to look forward to.   In the modern era of interconnected intelligence mining and social networking, the next generation of “free people” will be known as those few who remained blissfully off the grid.   Teach the youth, children, your grandchildren, all of them, to avoid this level of foolishness.   The modern world consequences are staggering. 

(USA TODAY)  A 14-year-old girl who sent a terroristic tweet to American Airlines has been arrested by authorities in the Netherlands, The Associated Press reports.
Police spokesman Roland Ekkers tells the news agency that the girl turned herself in to Rotterdam police in and is now being interrogated. The girl, who was not identified, was with a parent when she turned herself.

Ekkers said the motive for the tweet is not yet known.
The incident began Sunday when a Twitter user thought to be a teenage girl sent a terrorism-themed message to American Airlines.
Initially, the incident brought the girl only unwanted notoriety as it spawned coverage from media outlets across the globe.
The girl — who identified herself as a 14-year-old named Sarah in her now-suspended Twitter account — sent the following tweet to American Airlines’ @americanair account Sunday morning:
“hello my name’s Ibrahim and I’m from Afghanistan. I’m part of Al Qaida and on June 1st I’m gonna do something really big bye.”
American responded, saying: “Sarah, we take these threats very seriously. Your IP address and details will be forwarded to security and the FBI.”
That appeared to startle the girl, who responded mostly — but not entirely — with conciliatory tweets, according to London’s Mirror tabloid, which runs a long list of the exchange on Twitter.  (continue reading)
