German Police Raid Islamic Extremists in Berlin
(AP-ABC News) 850 German police conducted raids Thursday in Berlin and the state of Brandenburg on members of Jama'atu Berlin, a banned organization that followed the Islamic State's ideology. Authorities said the organization espoused an anti-Semitic ideology and advocated "armed jihad and terrorist attacks on civilians." "We will tolerate no place where terror is preached and the so-called Islamic State is glorified," said Berlin's state Interior Minister Andreas Geisel.
