The New Face Of Terrorism?

Arrest of 'Jihad Jane' Shows Tactics Have Evolved: The self-described "Jihad Jane" who thought her blond hair and blue eyes would let her blend in as she sought to kill an artist in Sweden is a rare case of an American woman aiding foreign terrorists and shows the evolution of the global threat, authorities say. The suburban Philadelphia woman, Colleen R. LaRose, is accused of actively recruiting fighters, as well as agreeing to murder the artist, marry a terrorism suspect and martyr herself if necessary. LaRose is "one of only a few such cases nationwide in which females have been charged with terrorism," a Department of Justice spokesman said.
