Hero soldier stops school bombing

Islamic State fighters had a frightening target in their sights — a school in Denmark. The horrific attack was meant to shock the world and kill as many schoolchildren as possible.

Thanks to U.S. Army Captain Bradley Grimm, they never got the chance.

“Capt. Bradley Grimm provided ‘actionable intelligence’ gleaned from captured documents in Iraq about foreign fighters from Denmark that included information on threats against a Danish school using homemade explosives, according to Col. Steve Warren, a spokesman for the coalition fighting ISIS,” CNN reported.

Grimm reportedly helped develop the intelligence-sharing system that thwarted the attack and led to at least one arrest.

For his efforts above and beyond the line of duty, Grimm was awarded the Danish Defense Medal for Special Meritorious Effort by the Danish Chief of Defense, General Peter Bartram, in a special ceremony.

The Islamic terrorists had plotted the attack as revenge for a recent expansion of Danish efforts in the fight against ISIS, which their parliament approved earlier this week.

As a member of the 45 nation coalition to defeat ISIS, Denmark currently contributes aircraft, air defense radar, and training to friendly Iraqi forces.

    While what that man did is admirable, and any praise is well deserve, Obama is most likely planning his revenge on him, as he foiled Obama’s ‘peaceful’ brothers.

    He is a true hero. Didnt hear anything about this incident or our hero from the regular news. Thats right. Our president hates our military and sides with Islamic terriorist and tells the regular news media what to tell us. Thanks for bringing this American hero to our attention.

    I agree with Juan two three. The only trouble is we don’t hear enough about America’s true hero’s. As for this Muslim traitor Obama you can bet he is plotting something against the Army Captain. You can bet we will here something down and nasty about the Captain and then he will be cashiered from the army and locked up somewhere on some bogus charges. As for getting rid of the Islamic Muslims I’m all for it. I think we need an open season on them that will not leave this country quickly and quietly. Muslims are anything but peace loving.

      Sam Spake, all one has to do is ask the countries that has taken muzzie’s in how peaceful they are.
      If they are so peaceful why don’t stay and fight for their country to get rid of the terrorists??? Why would they when
      they can go to other countries and reek havoc.

    A man both tough and smart. Hopefully Europe and the US learn from Mr. Grimm.

    I’m now watching Fareed Zakaria on CNN Sun Apr 24. A female Islamic scholar is disputing the 72 virgin belief. She’s saying the translation really means 72 raisons. In the desert raisons would be an expensive delicacy. So all of these Islamic fighters dying, believing they’re going to be raped by 72 virgins, are doing it for nothing?!! Hopefully the world starts to listen to John Lennon’s song “Imagine.” If we get past religion, there will be fewer problems.
