Default Global Incident Map
When you click on the website link below, a world map comes up showing what strange & dangerous things are happening right now in every country in the entire world & is updated every few minutes. You can move the map around, zero in on any one area & actually up-load the story of what is going on. It is amazing when you can see the things that are happening. This "map" updates every 300 seconds - constantly 24/7.

PROPAGANDA!!! Everybody must remain scared at all times so that our government can spend trillions more to fight terrorist!! Just look at everything that is happening right this very second!!! How dumb. Let's make a website where every single big and small air travel incident and maintenance problem gets reported instantly. Wow, that would make air travel seem like the most dangerous thing on the planet.

I'm trying to figure out the purpose of the "Mosque Map" that is also made by the same guy.

Exactly. Given his other maps I wonder what his true motives are behind that map.

If the stories are backed up by the news media, what do you think his motives would be?
