WHITE HOUSE UNDERMINES CONGRESS IN EFFORTS TO BUILD SANCTIONS AGAINST IRAN

Barry Rubin at the Gloria Center reports that the White House is only proving itself unreliable on the Iranian issue:
During the several months that the bills were wending their way through the House of Representatives and Senate, the White House refused requests for guidance by the congressional leadership on what the president wanted. Now, with Congress determined to have a single joint bill ready for passage before the summer adjournment, the White House is telling them to ease up on Iran.
In that case, Congress should not be seeking any guidance from the Oval Office at all. The only thing Obama's administration is doing is hindering their efforts in achieving justice.

Rahm to Yachting BP CEO: Stay out of PR

June 19, 2010 1:08 PM

In an EXCLUSIVE interview on This Week, White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had some career advice for BP CEO Tony Hayward: Stay out of PR.

Host Jake Tapper asked for Emanuel’s reaction to new photos of Hayward sailing on his yacht today in the waters off the coast of Britain.

“Well, to quote Tony Hayward, he’s got his life back, as he would say,” Emanuel said with a smile. “And I think we can all conclude that Tony Hayward is not going to have a second career in PR consulting. This has just been part of a long line of PR gaffes and mistakes.”

“But, beyond that photo,” Emanuel explained, “there’s really a substance here that matters. That’s clearly a PR mistake, but he’s made a number of those mistakes.

Obama hits golf course with Biden on another hot, humid weekend
President Barack Obama hit the golf course Saturday with Vice President Joe Biden.

The White House pool report noted that Obama left at about 1 p.m. for the course at Andrews Air Force base, and his golfing parters included White House Trip Director Marvin Nicholson and photographer David Katz.

Nicholson and Katz, along with Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, joined Obama for four hours of golf last weekend. The Republican National Committee released an ad soon afterward taking aim at Obama's golfing during the ongoing BP oil spill crisis in the Gulf of Mexico.

The temperatures in the Washington, D.C., area Saturday were similar to last weekend, in the low 90s and humid.

Obama attended the Washington Nationals game Friday night wearing a cap for his hometown Chicago White Sox. Sources told the pool reporter that Obama sang "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" and left in the ninth inning, before the White Sox edged out the Nationals 2-1 in the 11th.
THESE STUPID FECKING CHICAGO MACHINE COMMIES CAN'T EVEN ATTACK BP WITHOUT GETTING FECKING CRAP ON THEMSELVES.

WE CAN FIX THINGS A LITTLE THIS NOVEMBER: VOTE GOP!

WHAT IF BILL AND HILLARY HAD SETTLED IN ILLINOIS INSTEAD OF NEW YORK???

Hmmm... if Bill and Hill had moved to Illinois after his presidency ended - her home state - then she'd've run for US Senator from Illinois and maybe Obama wouldn't have ever been elected to speak at Kerry's convention and he wouldn't have been a candidate for POTUS or nominate for elected.

I guess Hillary failed us twice.

Sigh.

PUSHING ADOPTION AS ANOTHER CHOICE FOR UNWANTED PREGNANCIES

NYTIMES: Campaigning for Common Ground in Abortion Debate
What if groups that demanded reproductive choices for women actually offered them?

Corinna Lohser of Adoption Access Network, which seeks to make adoption a subject that women feel more comfortable talking about at abortion clinics.

Mark these words: Adoption Access Network. Few people have ever heard of it, but it’s the rare phenomenon (we’re talking meteor-strike rare) that feminists on both sides of the abortion debate — the Sarah Palin-mama grizzly variety, as well as the old-school, march-on-Washington kind — can get behind.

The idea is simple. It is about choice. Not choice as a euphemism for the right to have an abortion, but choice in the true sense of the word: options, informed consent and support for women trying to figure out what to do with an unwanted pregnancy.

Imagine this: a woman enters her local Planned Parenthood office and notices, in the bathroom, a poster that says: “Questions about adoption? We can answer those, too.”

Such posters, which should be up in the hallways of at least 15 abortion providers in New York within the month, are produced by the Adoption Access Network as part of a campaign to make adoption a subject that patients and social workers alike feel more comfortable broaching in abortion clinics. The thinking is that all the clinics’ clients, whether they seem uneasy about abortion or not, should have a clear understanding of how adoption works, rather than just be handed a list of references — a list that essentially says, adoption is fine, but it’s not our thing.

I THINK THIS IS A GREAT THING.

CHAVEZ WANTS INTERPOL TO ARREST AN OPPONENT WHO FLED HIS TYRANNY

NYTIMES:
Venezuela on Friday called for the capture of a government opponent who owns a critical television channel and who recently fled the country after authorities sought to arrest him.

The government put out an international request for Guillermo Zuloaga's capture through Interpol, Justice Minister Tareck El Aissami said.

Zuloaga is the majority owner of Globovision, the country's only remaining channel that takes a critical line against President Hugo Chavez.

Authorities believe Zuloaga is in Miami, along with Nelson Mezerhane, who owns a minority stake in Globovision, El Aissami said.

A court last week issued an arrest warrant for Zuloaga and one of his sons.

Prosecutors want Zuloaga jailed while he awaits trial on charges of usury and conspiracy for keeping 24 new vehicles stored at a home he owns. Zuloaga has called the charges bogus and an attempt to intimidate him and silence Globovision.

Mezerhane was already in Florida when banking regulators seized control of his bank, Banco Federal, on Monday citing major financial problems. Mezerhane condemned the bank takeover as political retribution against him and Globovision.

''They flee, they go away, of course,'' El Aissami said. ''In Miami -- where Mr. Zuloaga is, where Mr. Mezerhane is -- they have the necessary conditions of complicity and impunity.''

WHO IS EL AISSAMI? HERE:
The recent designation of Tarek El – Aissami as Minster of Interior and Justice of Venezuela has raised concerns because of his connections with extremist groups.

Mr. El – Aissami is a Venezuelan national of Syrian descent who, before becoming Minster of Interior and Justice, occupied the position of Deputy Interior Minister for Public Security. His father, Carlos Aissami, is the head of the Venezuelan branch of the Iraqi Baath political party. Before the invasion of Iraq, he held a press conference in which he described himself as a Taliban and called Osama Bin Laden, "the great Mujahedeen, Sheik Osama bin Laden." Tarek's great-uncle Shibli el-Aissami was a prominent ideologist and assistant to the party's secretary general in Baghdad during the Saddam Hussein regime.[1]

It was discovered that in 2003 El Aissami was appointed, along with another radical student leader from the University of the Andes in the city of Mérida, Hugo Cabezas, to head the country's passport and naturalization service, the Onidex (Identification and Immigration Office). The choice came as a surprise precisely because of their ties with guerrilla movements at Universidad de Los Andes (ULA). Evidence has surfaced that during this time both men illegally issued Venezuelan passports and identity documents to members of Hezbollah and Hamas.
CHAVEZ IS PART OF THE AXIS OF EVIL ALONG WITH TURKEY AND IRAN AND SYRIA AND AL QAEDA AND THE TALIBAN.

WE SHOULD TREAT THEM ALL ACCORDINGLY.

AND THAT DOESN'T MEAN APPEASE THEM, EITHER.

TO STOP THE BP OIL SPILL AND TO PREVENT FUTURE ONES WE NEED TO DRILL MORE, NOT LESS!

The only sure way to top the leak is to drill a RELIEF WELL.

That's right: drilling a few more wells.

And every single well in the gulf that gets drilled should have a relief well drilled at the same time.

YUP: MORE DRILLING, NOT LESS IS THE ANSWER.

AND: more drilling closer to the shore in shallower waters.

BTW: THE BP RELIEF WELL IS AHEAD OF SCHEDULE.

THE LESS A GOVERNMENT TAKES THROUGH TAXES, THE MORE PROSPEROUS WILL BE THAT NATION'S ECONOMY AND MORE THE ROBUST WILL BE ITS GROWTH.

THIS NOVEMBER WE GET TO CHOOSE WHAT ROAD OUR NATION TAKES: THE ROAD TO PROSPERITY AND FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE, OR THE ROAD TO SERFDOM.

IF YOU WANT SERFDOM THEN VOTE FOR THE DEMOCRATS.

A GOOD SIGN FOR THE ECONOMY?

NYTIMES:
The median home price in California last month surged 20.9 percent from May 2009 to $278,000, as inventories of low-cost foreclosures dwindled and transactions in mid-range and high-end neighborhoods claimed a greater share of sales, a tracking firm reported Thursday.

Last month's median was up from $230,000 a year ago and up 9 percent from $255,000 in April, San Diego-based MDA DataQuick said. The May median, which marked a seventh consecutive month of year-over-year increases, was at its highest level since October 2008.

MAYBE THE ECONOMY IS BEGINNING TO TURN?

TURKEY ATTACKS KURDS INSIDE IRAQ

BBC:

Turkish troops in pursuit of Kurdish rebels have crossed into northern Iraq and killed four militants, Turkish officials say.

The military said air strikes were also launched against rebel positions deeper inside Iraqi territory.

The offensive took place after rebels made an unsuccessful attack on border guards, Turkish officials said.

Turkey has been fighting insurgents of the Kurdish Workers Party (PKK) for more than a quarter of a century.

IF ERDOGAN CAN FIGHT AND KILL MUSLIMS HE CALLS TERRORISTS WHO WANT TO CARVE A NEW NATION OUT OF HIS SOVEREIGN NATION, THEN WHY CAN'T ISRAEL!?!?

ACTUALLY, THE KURDS HAVE BETTER CLAIM THAN THE GAZANS OR WEST BANK ARABS:

KURDS HAVE THEIR OWN LANGUAGE AND CULTURE AND HISTORY, SEPARATE FROM ARABS; WHEREAS GAZANS AND WEST BANK ARABS ARE REALLY JUST ARABS.

THIS PROVES THAT TURKEY'S ATTACKS ON ISRAEL ARE HYPOCRITICAL AND IMMORAL AND IR PROVES THAT TURKEY HAS FULLY JOINED THE RANKS OF THE AXIS OF EVIL.

ALSO: THE FACT THAT ERDOGAN HAS SO BLATANTLY VIOLATED IRAQ'S SOVEREIGNTY TELLS US WHAT HE THINKS OF OBAMA: HE DOESN'T FEAR OBAMA ONE WHIT.

WTF: MANY TSA SCREENERS ARE MUSLIMS

GOV:
I flew out of Dulles last Wednesday, and the security process there was pure living hell. First there was an endless line just to get to the checkpoint where the TSA guy looks at your passport and boarding pass. Then there was another line — this one snaking back and forth through what seemed like miles of elastic tape barriers — that eventually divided up into several streams to go through the X-ray machines and the metal detectors. Shoes off, coat off, laptop out, liquids into the little bag, go through the Mystical Arch of Examination — and if you’re lucky, they don’t select you for some of that Extra Scrutiny.

After that, if you have time, you can get sozzled in the bar at eight bucks a beer while you’re waiting to board.

Coming home yesterday I had to repeat the same procedure in Zurich, although it was less strenuous there. Unfortunately, however, I had to change planes in Philadelphia (a five-hour layover), and Philly is a point-of-entry. That meant I had to go through passport control (an endless line), and then reclaim my luggage. Next came customs (an endless line), and then I had to re-check my suitcase. And then — here’s the killer — I had to go through security again. A long line down a winding corridor to the checkpoint with the grumpy TSA guy, then the inevitable snake back and forth to the X-ray machines. Shoes off, etc., etc. Once more with feeling.

OK, you all know the drill; this was just business as usual.

But — and here’s the kicker — everywhere I went there were Muslims working the security. Muslimas in hijab checking boarding passes. Muslims at the X-ray machines. Muslims wanding people. And in Philly I saw a Muslim guy doing the security screening on an entire family of Muslim travelers — women and girls in hijab, Dad in his little beanie, kids straggling along.

And I’ve got to tell you: it bothered me.

We are less safe after all this folderol because we’re letting people who could well be our enemies screen people who could well be our enemies. Which, needless to say, is insane.
MULTICULTI-PC IS INSANE - AND IT MAKES US LESS SAFE.

WOULD CHURCHILL HAVE HAD THE CIVIL DEFENSE FORCES AND SPOTTERS MANNED BY HUNS OR KRAUTS!?

IF WE ARE NOT AT WAR WITH ISLAMO-TERROR, THEN WHO AND WHAT ARE WE AT WAR WITH!?!?

WE CAN BEGIN THE END OF THIS MULTICULTI-PC MADNESS THIS NOVEMBER: VOTE GOP!

A FEW MORE SIGNS THAT KENYA IS POLARIZING BEFORE REFERENDUM

QT/REUTERS:Kenya charges politicians with making hate speech
Two Kenyan members of parliament and an assistant minister were charged yesterday with hate speech while campaigning for the rejection of a proposed new constitution.

A Nairobi court granted MPs Fred Kapondi and Joshua Kutuny, Assistant Minister for Roads Wilfred Machage, and Christine Miller, the wife of a former chief justice who was also charged, a bail of 100,000 Kenya shillings ($1,244) after they pleaded not guilty.

Kapondi, Machage and Kutuny are accused of threatening to evict people from their land if the constitution is adopted. Miller stands accused of incitement to violence against those campaigning for a “Yes” vote. They were charged with violating a 2008 law aimed at fostering national cohesion and integration after a bloody post-election crisis led to the killing of 1,300 people earlier that year. Kenya is due to hold a vote on August 4 on the proposed charter.

The charges of stoking fears amongst Kenya’s various communities come days after the run-up to the vote turned violent when six people were killed and over 100 injured when three grenades exploded at a prayer meeting and “No” rally.

Church denied permit to hold service for blast victims at Uhuru Park

The clergy has been denied a permit to hold a memorial service for the victims of last Sunday grenade attack at Uhuru Park today.

Organisers of the cancelled gathering addressed the media yesterday and cried foul, saying the Nairobi City Council, which denied them the permit, was being used to intimidate and frustrate them.

... "We are seeing a conspiracy to deny the churches an opportunity to meet and condole with the bereaved families, but we will pass our message from elsewhere," said Bob Kabugi.

Accompanied by Oliver Kisaka, the NCCK Deputy Secretary General and member Connie Kivuti, the organisers said prayers for those who died, the injured and traumatised Christians would be conducted at the All Saints Cathedral starting 10am.
KENYA IS CREEPING TOWARDS SHARIA...

IF THE NEW CONSTITUTION PASSES IT WILL LEAP FROG.

SF ENACTS IDIOTIC LEFT-WING NANNYSTATE CELLPHONE LAW

This really epitomizes what's wrong with the left and the nannystate:
Imposing roughly the same cautionary standards for cellphones as for fatty food or sugary soda, this city — never shy about its opinions — voted on Tuesday to require all retailers to display the amount of radiation each phone emits. ...

... The law — believed to be the first of its kind in the nation — came despite a lack of conclusive scientific evidence showing that the devices are dangerous, and amid opposition from the wireless telephone industry, which views the labeling ordinance as a potential business-killing precedent.

But the administration of Gavin Newsom, the city’s tech-happy mayor (he has more than 1.3 million followers on Twitter), called the vote a major victory for cell phone shoppers’ right to know.

“It’s information that’s out there if you’re willing to look hard enough,” said Tony Winnicker, a spokesman for Mr. Newsom. “And we think that for the consumer for whom this is an area of concern, it ought to be easier to find.”

Under the law, retailers will be required to post materials — in at least 11-point type — next to phones, listing their specific absorption rate, which is the amount of radio waves absorbed into the cellphone user’s body tissue.

These so-called SAR rates can vary from phone to phone, but all phones sold in the United States must have a SAR rate no greater than 1.6 watts per kilogram, according to the Federal Communications Commission, which regulates the $190 billion wireless industry.

WW4: GOOD VERSUS EVIL; RIGHT VERSUS WRONG; BLESSINGS VERSUS CURSES; LIFE VERSUS DEATH

WEASEL ZIPPERS:

The fruits of unchecked multiculturalism and the British government’s Londonistan policies of the 1990s …

(Daily Mail)- A group of extremist Muslims prompted violent clashes at a homecoming parade for British troops today after they heckled soldiers and called them ‘murderers.’

Members of the Muslim Against the Crusade group clashed with far right protesters as they shouted ‘murderers, murderers, murderers’ and ‘British troops go to hell’ as members of the 1st Battalion the Royal Anglian Regiment paraded down the streets of Barking, Essex.

The chants were drowned out by a large mob on the opposite side of the street who retaliated with jeers of ‘Traitors’ to the Muslim protesters.

The hour-long parade had been delayed due to growing tensions between the two sides, with anti-Mac protestors singing God Save the Queen and drinkers at a nearby pub hurling frozen pork sausages at the Muslims.

Moments after the soldiers passed through tensions reached boiling point and the anti-Mac campaigners broke through the barricades, charged across the road and traded punches with the Muslim throng.

Police quickly separated the mob, with one man wrestled to the ground, handcuffed and led away while the police made a ring surrounding the Muslim group.

One member of the Mac group used a megaphone to shout:

‘This is a protest against parading in a Muslim area. We love death the way you love life.’ [UMPH ADDED]

IT IS VERY TELLING THAT THE ENEMY ADMITS THAT THEY LOVE DEATH.

HERE'S WHY:

IT IS WRITTEN:

טו רְאֵה נָתַתִּי לְפָנֶיךָ הַיּוֹם, אֶת-הַחַיִּים וְאֶת-הַטּוֹב, וְאֶת-הַמָּוֶת, וְאֶת-הָרָע. 15 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil,

WHAT REALLY PISSED OFF ETHERIDGE WASN'T THE QUESTION OR QUESTIONER; IT WAS OBAMA, PELOSI AND THE MID-TERMS

FOX:

HANNITY: All right, here with analysis of all this, is the reporter who first posted the video, Mike Flynn; he's with BigGovernment.com. Mike, welcome to the program. Thanks for with us.

MIKE FLYNN, BIGGOVERNMENT.COM: Hey thanks, Sean.

HANNITY: All right, do you support the Obama agenda?

FLYNN: Yes, it's a pretty innocuous question, isn't it?

HANNITY: It's not that hard a question. Yes, no, or I have no comment.

FLYNN: Well, that's what really struck me about this video when I first got it. Is that, I mean, this is a leading member of the House Majority, a top Democrat in the House who is asked a pretty innocent question. And within about a nanosecond he goes from zero to 60 and starts physically attacking the student.

...

FLYNN: Well and — and again, that's what struck me. Is that within just a nanosecond of the question being asked he immediately goes and tries this, you know, to knock the camera out of one of the student's arms and then grabs the other student.

I mean, there's no — it's so — it happened so fast.

HANNITY: Yes.

FLYNN: He's such on a hair trigger. I mean, I think it tells you what kind of razor's edge the House Democrats are in right now.

HANNITY: You know I —

FLYNN: I mean, they are really, really nervous.

I am speculating that Etheridge wasn't pissed at the question or the questioner.

To go from 0-to-60 in a nanosecond he had to have been ALREADY pissed off.

I think he just teed off on the next available target.

HMMM: What had made Etheridge so angry?

THIS:

I think he'd just been told by the Democrat Leadership that in order to have the best possible chance at holding the House - (perhaps by as few as 5 seats!) - that Obama, Rahm, Axelrod and Pelosi and the DCCC had decided they were going to focus their efforts and MONEY on winning several key districts that were within reach and not try to defend all of the borderline seats.

IOW: they were going to concede 50 seats to the GOP and make a focused stand where they felt that had the best chance at holding a seat.

And Etheridge surmised he was going to be sacrificed.

After having made some very difficult votes for the Obama Agenda, the Obama Machine was now throwing him under a bus and he was PISSED OFF.

You'dabin pissed off too.

BARCELONA BANS VEILS

BBC:

Barcelona has become the first large Spanish city to announce a ban on the wearing of full Islamic face-veils in some public spaces.

The ban was designed to include any head-wear that hindered identification, officials said.

At least two towns in Catalonia, the region that includes Barcelona, have already announced bans.

Belgium and France have both recently taken steps towards restricting the use of full veils in public.

Barcelona's city council said the ban would be largely symbolic, since it was uncommon to see women in the city wearing the full veil.

"Barcelona will forbid the use of the burqa, niqab and any other item which hinders personal identification in any of the city's public installations," a council statement said.

The ban would cover public spaces such as municipal offices, public markets and libraries - but not the streets.

The mayor of Barcelona, Jordi Hereu, said the measure was aimed purely at ensuring people could be identified, and would therefore include balaclavas, motorbike helmets and ski masks.

"In no way does it target religious belief," he said.

I FEAR IT'S TOO LITTLE TOO LATE, BUT IT DOES SHOW THEY'RE WAKING UP.

Another victory for the exposer of the al-Durah hoax

Phillipe Karsenty, the media watchdog manager in France who exposed the Mohammed al-Durah hoax for what it was, a blood libel, has won another lawsuit against Canal Plus, who tried to defame him with a "documentary":
A French court has upheld a suit by journalist Phillipe Karsenty, ruling that a French documentary about him and the death of 12-year-old Muhammed Al-Dura in 2000 was defamatory and prejudiced.
There's a bit of an inaccuracy here: al-Durah didn't die in September 2000 at the Netzarim intersection in Gaza in the originally filmed propaganda itself. That said, we can't be sure if he's still alive now either; what if his own kin murdered him instead?
Karsenty, a French media commentator, has now been twice vindicated in his fight against the France-2 television station’s version of the boy’s death. Karsenty was sued for libel in 2004 by France 2 for saying that the film of Al-Dura’s death, which accused Israeli forces of killing him, was distorted and false. Though the case is now being heard by the French Supreme Court, the status quo is that in May 2008, the Paris Court of Appeals overturned a lower court’s ruling against Karsenty from 2006.

In the weeks preceding the Paris Court of Appeals’ decision, an attempt was made to sway public opinion against Karsenty when private French television channel Canal + broadcast a documentary about the case. “The verdict found that the Canal + news documentary about the case was defamatory,” Karsenty wrote late last week, “and that the journalist who made it wasn't objective, even though he had access to all the necessary information to know the truth about the al Dura hoax.”

“Here are some statements that were made about me in the documentary,” Karsenty continued. “According to this film, I am - faking information, pressuring journalists to self-censor themselves, manipulating the information in order to promote extremist political views without any interest in the truth, using the internet to dupe, falsify facts and to serve a cause and promote a despicable ideology,” etc.

Though the original France 2 report claimed that Al-Dura was killed by Israeli gunfire, a subsequent investigation by Israel and additional footage showed the boy lifting his head, opening his eyes and lifting his arm after being pronounced dead. Though France 2’s Charles Enderlin said that these were was just the boy’s death throes, others said the boy was actually peeking at the camera in what was actually an elaborate ruse.
A shame that even now, the MSM in France is vengeful for his success in proving that atrocity a hoax (and lest we forget that Enderlin acted very thin-skinned about it later on). Make them pay a nice big chunk of money now, with which Karsenty could open his own private news channel.

OBAMA'S BOSS - SOROS - PROFITING FROM BP DISASTER: THE ASTUTE BLOGGERS SCOOPS HOT AIR AND TAMMY BRUCE BY A DAY

HOT AIR AND TAMNMY BRUCE TODAY.

We scooped Tammy Bruce by a day - and have more dots connected - here.

Regular readers know we do this all the time. Spread the word, blogroll us, bookmark us.

AFGHANISTAN, THE TALIBAN, THE ISI, LITHIUM AND ... CHINA

Well, we just found out there's a freeeeeekin shipload of Lithium is Afghanistan.

This makes this bleak and God-forsaken bit of territory a lot more attractive to potential suitors.

I think we can parlay this into a new military alliance to keep Afghanistan free from jihado-fascism.

We should call up the Chinese and offer them a three-way deal with the government of Afghanistan:

China sends troops to keep the lid on the jihado-maniacs is several regions (the ones closest to China), and in return... they get lots of mining rights.
  • China could EASILY handle a big role and positive security role Afghanistan: China has a lot of experience keeping jihado-freaks under control: they do it all the time in the Uighur region of China.
  • China has a huge military and could afford to send 200,000 troops to Afghanistan.
  • China has very good ties to Pakistan and could even help control the ISI.
  • We get to withdraw most of our troops - both US and NATO.
  • We could continue to use drones and bombers and handle the hi-tech end of the conflict and Kabul.
There is no downside: The Afghan's get rid of most of us; we get to bring most of our troops home; China gets to mine/sell lithium.

IT'S A WIN-WIN-WIN.

Too bad we don't have a POTUS like Nixon and Sec of State like Kissinger now; they knew how to play the grand game on a global scale.

Obama and Hillary are midgets compared to Nixon and Kissinger.

FRANCE AND TURKEY SHOULD BOTH BE THROWN OUT OF NATO

ARTHUR HERMAN - VIA (ANDY MCCARTHY):
The Gaza convoy incident underlined the growing support of Iran and the terrorist group Hamas by Turkey -- a NATO member since 1958.

That one of the NATO allies now wants to ally with the jihadist cause -- and a country that is NATO's face in the Middle East -- should get everyone's attention.

France, having rejoined NATO's military structure in 2009 (after leaving in a huff back in 1966), is about to sell up to four Mistral-class helicopter assault ships to Russia. The warships include sophisticated technology that integrates the ships with the military command and information systems used by NATO and the United States, including in Afghanistan.

[IT GET'S WORSE!] ... only five of NATO's 28 members live up to the 2 percent defense-spending requirement. Worse, Karl Heinz Kamp, director of the research division of NATO Defense College, has found that, of Europe's 2 million men and women in uniform, only 3 percent to 5 percent are actually deployable in combat. And the cash-strapped Europeans want to cut NATO's budget almost out of sight.

... Today, NATO is letting the Americans and Afghans down, allowing the Russians and Iranians in -- and letting everyone else off the hook.

So why are we still part of it?
INSTEAD OF QUITTING NATO WE SHOULD THROW FRANCE AND TURKEY OUT OF NATO.

HOW? BY WITHHOLDING MONEY UNTIL THEY WITHDRAW.

TALIBAN AND PAKISTAN'S ISI WORKING TOGETHER: THE ASTUTE BLOGGERS SCOOPS HOT AIR BY A DAY

HOT AIR TONIGHT:

MONDAY: UPDATE:

YESSSSSSSS! WE SCOOPED WEASEL ZIPPERS BY 2 DAYS ON THIS.

HMMM: DUBAI TO POLAND: KEEP THE MOSSAD GUY YOU ARRESTED AND TRY HIM YOURSELF OR SEND HIM TO GERMANY CUZ WE DON'T WANT HIM!

POLAND ARRESTED A GUY FOR BEING A MOSSAD AGENT THEY CLAIM TOOK PART IN THE ASSASSINATION OF ONE OF HAMAS'S ARMS BUYERS IN DUBAI.

BUT: Emirate's police chief asks that Israeli be punished in Germany.

Dubai will not request the extradition of a suspected Mossad spy who might have played a role in the Mabhouh assassination in January, Dubai’s police chief, Lt.-Gen. Dahi Khalfan Tamim, said on Sunday according to a report cited by Channel 10.

"The suspect committed his crime in Germany, so it is natural that he would be prosecuted there. What is important is that he is punished, not which country punishes him," commented Tamim.


A spokesman for the federal public prosecutor told The Jerusalem Post on Saturday that Poland had arrested an intelligence officer involved in the assassination of senior Hamas operative Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai. According to the spokesman, Germany’s top prosecutor has issued an extradition order to Polish officials because the alleged spy provided “false information” to obtain a German passport in Cologne, which was reportedly used to travel to Dubai in January.

The man, using the name Uri Brodsky, is suspected of working for the Mossad in Germany and helping to issue a fake German passport to a member of the Mossad hit squad that allegedly killed Mabhouh in January, a spokesman for the German federal prosecutor’s office told the Associated Press.

Beyond confirming that an Israeli citizen had been arrested at the beginning of the month in Warsaw, and that he had requested consular assistance, the Foreign Ministry refused to say anything else about the matter Saturday night, including whether Israel was trying to stop Brodsky’s extradition to Germany.
INTERESTING.

WHY WOULDN'T DUBAI WANT THE MOSSAD AGENT TRIED THERE - ASSUMING HE REALLY WAS PART OF THE ASSASSINATION TEAM?

COULD IT BE BECAUSE THEY WERE INVOLVED IN THE HIT? OR ONE OF THEIR ARAB ALLIES?

DON'T STAY TUNED - CUZ I DON'T THINK WE'RE EVER GONNA FIND OUT.

(MAYBE YOU DISAGREE - AND CAN EXPLAIN THIS TO ME IN THE COMMENTS.)

POLITICAL VIOLENCE ERUPTS IN KENYA - JUST AS I PREDICTED

NYTIMES:
Two explosions ripped through a park in Nairobi's capital during a packed political rally late Sunday, killing five people and wounding 75, officials said.

The rally was held to protest a draft constitution the country will vote on in August. The country's president and prime minister support it, but several prominent political leaders do not.

Prime Minister Raila Odinga said officials don't yet know the cause of the blasts, but that they wounded 75 people. Dr. Charles Kabetu of Kenya's national hospital said five people had died.

''I want to say clearly that the government will do everything possible to get to the root of this incident. We must condemn this,'' Odinga said. ''Kenyans can decide peacefully what they want'' concerning the constitution.

The campaign against the draft constitution opposes a clause that would allow abortion to save a mother's life.

Opponents also don't like a clause that would recognize informal courts used by Kenya's Islamic community.

YEAH, SURE. ODINGA - A MUSLIM AND OBAMA'S COUSIN, AND ADMIRER OF AHMADNIEJAD - FAVORS THE NEW CONSTITUTION WHICH GIVES SPECIAL PRIVILEGES TO ISLAM.

WE PREDICTED THIS:

Monday, May 24, 2010

UH-OH: "Kenya court rules Islamic courts are illegal"
THE ISLAMISTS WON'T TAKE THIS COURT DECISION LYING DOWN.

I HAVE FEELING THIS MEANS KENYA IS HEADED FOR OUT-AND-OUT JIHADIST FUELED CIVIL WAR BY AUTUMN...

MORE HERE (FROM A KENYAN PAPER FEW WEEKS AGO):

The government [INCLUDING OBAMA COUSIN PM RAILA ODINGA] is facing opposition from Christian churches, which have vowed to lead the ‘No’ campaign after talks to strike a deal on contentious issues in the new set of laws failed....

... Christian leaders are also opposed to the retention of kadhi’s courts in the proposed constitution under Article 169 and 170, which limit their authority to disputes over personal status, marriage, divorce or inheritance, where all the parties are Muslims and agree to take the case to a kadhi.

They have been joined in the ‘No’ campaign by a team of ODM leaders from the Rift Valley led by Higher Education minister William Ruto.

Others in the ‘No’ campaign include Kaddu leader Cyrus Jirongo and Igembe South MP Mithika Linturi of Kanu.

The proposed constitution was published last Thursday.

SO: THE BATTLE LINES ARE DRAWN.

I HAVE A FEELING THIS ISSUE WON'T BE RESOLVED BY THE REFERENDUM OR THE COURTS.

ISLAMISTS RESPECT NEITHER.

I PREDICT A BLOODY SECTARIAN CIVIL WAR. IT MAY VERY BEGIN ON REFERENDUM DAY ON AUGUST.

STAY TUNED...

INDEED...

OFF-SHORE OIL-DRILLING, OBAMA, SOROS, PETROBRAS: CONNECTING THE DOTS

DOT #1:

WSJ: Obama Underwrites Offshore Drilling
Too bad it's not in U.S. waters.

You read that headline correctly. Unfortunately, the Obama Administration is financing oil exploration off Brazil.

The U.S. is going to lend billions of dollars to Brazil's state-owned oil company, Petrobras, to finance exploration of the huge offshore discovery in Brazil's Tupi oil field in the Santos Basin near Rio de Janeiro. Brazil's planning minister confirmed that White House National Security Adviser James Jones met this month with Brazilian officials to talk about the loan.

The U.S. Export-Import Bank tells us it has issued a "preliminary commitment" letter to Petrobras in the amount of $2 billion and has discussed with Brazil the possibility of increasing that amount. Ex-Im Bank says it has not decided whether the money will come in the form of a direct loan or loan guarantees. Either way, this corporate foreign aid may strike some readers as odd, given that the U.S. Treasury seems desperate for cash and Petrobras is one of the largest corporations in the Americas.
DOT #2:

BLOOMBERG:

Aug. 15 Billionaire investor George Soros bought an $811 million stake in Petroleo Brasileiro SA in the second quarter, making the Brazilian state-controlled oil company his investment fund's largest holding.

As of June 30, the stake in Petrobras, as the Rio de Janeiro-based oil producer is known, made up 22 percent of the $3.68 billion of stocks and American depositary receipts held by Soros Fund Management LLC, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Petrobras has since slumped 28 percent.

Barack Obama’s oil drilling moratorium will cost tens of thousands of American jobs.
But, not everyone will suffer.


Oil companies are planning on moving their rigs from the Gulf of Mexico to South America off the coast of Brazil where the government is more friendly to energy corporations.

Reuters reported, via Free Republic:

Brazil could benefit from the BP Gulf of Mexico spill as a U.S. moratorium on offshore drilling boosts available rigs for the country’s deep water oil exploration program.

Even as an ecological catastrophe makes the future of U.S. offshore drilling less certain, Brazil is plowing ahead with a $220 billion five-year plan to tap oil fields even deeper than BP’s (BP.L) ill-fated Gulf well, which is still leaking crude.

With an estimated 35 rigs idled in the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil is already receiving inquiries from companies looking to move their rigs here, where vast discoveries in recent years may soon turn the country into a major crude exporter.

CONNECTING THE DOTS:
  • OBAMA IS HELPING ANOTHER PART OF HIS MACHINE - GEORGE SOROS.
(SOROS FINANCES ALL OF THE LEFTIST THINK TANKS IN THE USA - OWNS PODESTA'S ADD AND HIRED VAN JONES AFTER WE GOT HIM FIRED AS A WHITE HOUSE CZAR.)
  • OBAMA IS HELPING A THIRD WORLD PRO-IRANIAN NATION (BRAZIL) - DIRECTLY WITH AID/LOANS AND INDIRECTLY BY SHUTTING DOWN DRILLING IN TH GULF.
  • OBAMA IS CLOWARD-PIVENING THE SOUTH - WHICH VOTES GOP.
(YES, I THINK THAT OBAMA IS DELIBERATELY HURTING THE SOUTH: OBAMA HAS PROVEN - BY ATTACKING ARIZONA - THAT HE IS NOT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, BUT JUST THE STATES HE LIKES.)

THAT OBAMA IS ACTIVELY HELPING OUR FOES AND HURTING THE USA IS THE SIMPLEST EXPLANATION FOR THESE ACTIONS, THESE DOTS. IT PASSES OCCAM'S RAZOR.

ONE MUST CONCLUDE THAT OBAMA IS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO OUR ECONOMY AND PROBABLY SHOULD REGISTER - ALONG WITH SOROS - AS A FOREIGN AGENT!

WE CAN FIX THIS IN NOVEMBER: VOTE GOP!

OIL DISCOVERED OFF COAST OF BRAZIL COULD NOT BE "FOSSIL FUEL"

As we've repeatedly shown here at AB (here, here, and here, for instance), oil is not necessarily an abiotic fossil fuel. In fact, in at least some cases, it has been proven that microbes excrete petroleum.

Could it be the very idea of "peak oil" is absolute b.s.?

Yes, that is very likely.

And, here is more evidence:

A key argument of "Peak-Oil" and "Fossil-Fuel" theorists is no new giant oilfield discoveries have been made in recent years. Oil "experts" such as Matt Simmons and Ken Deffeyes are locked into the belief that oil is a fossil fuel, and pretty soon we are bound to have found and drilled all the oil that ever was. What about Brazil?

The experience of Brazil's offshore drilling is proving that giant new oil fields are out there, waiting to be discovered, just off shore along the continental shelf. Petrobras, Brazil's largest oil company is moving Brazil from being nearly 100 percent dependent on foreign oil imports only some 50 years ago, toward becoming a net oil exporter in the next few years. How? Brazil has realized spectacular results by developing the technology to drill ultra-deepoffshore wells in Brazil's Barracuda and Caratingua oil fields, in the Campos Basin some 50 miles into the Atlantic Ocean east of Rio de Janeiro.

...

Today, Petrobras is one of the world's leaders in developing offshore technology capable of drilling the ocean floor under some two miles of water. Petrobras enjoys considerable international prestige with its ultra-deepwater technology. The company has expanded its offshore presence in the Gulf of Mexico and off the West Coast of Africa. Petrobras is contemplating developing new offshore projects in the Caribbean, in the waters offshore Cuba.

The geological description of the Campos Basin suggests that the rock formations in which oil is being found are in Upper Oligocene to Lower Micocene deposits – in other words, deposits from the Cenozoic Era, dating back only some 24,000 years. Dinosaurs dominated in the prior Mesozoic Era which stretches back 250 million years ago and end some 65 million years ago.The oil -rich deposits in the Campos Field stretch back at most some 20 thousands of years, not millions. This should rule out that any dead dinosaurs or decaying ancient forests formedthe oil found off Brazil's shore. Dinosaurs supposed died out in the Crataceous Period at the end of the Mesozoic Era, just before the Cenozoic Era began.

Moreover, the oil-rich deposits are typically described as "turbidite," a sedimentary deposit that typically consists of material that has moved down a steep slope at the edge of thecontinental shelf. The oil-rich sediments are mostly sand and mud. The technical descriptions of the oil-rich rock in the Campos Basin strongly suggest that the deposits flowed from the continent and settled on the ocean floor.

The biotic content of the rock is found to contain "benthic foraminifera," little shell creatures that like to live on the ocean bottom. The rock itself is described as having been formed in "bathyal" conditions, a term typically reserved to describe the ocean floor from half a mile to about two miles down. The geological descriptions suggest no findings of animal fossils or ancient flora debris.
While the geology suggests the Campos Basin oil-rich deposits formed when the sea level was lower than today, the deposits suggest that the area was most probably still underwater when the sand and mud deposits flowed into the area.

With the geological description of the rock, "Fossil-Fuel" theorists are going to have a hard time positing that ancient dinosaurs and decaying prehistoric flora were the cause of the oil. The geological description sounds like the area was already well underwater when mud and sand run-off from the shore deposited sediment. The abiotic theory of oil seems more consistent with the geology, arguing that this type of deposit was sufficiently porous for upward-seeping hydrocarbons naturally formed in the Earth's mantle to pool in reservoirs.


Oh, and by the way, while Brazil is leading the way in Energy Exploration, Barack Obama has put a moratorium on off-shore drilling. And, the result is,

IDLED OIL RIGS ARE MOVING TO BRAZIL
 

OBAMA AND JEWS

GOOD POST HERE FROM DD ON JEWS, OBAMA, ZIONISM AND JUDENRAT.

GREAT: IRAN AND PAKISTAN IN PIPELINE DEAL

IRAN'S state TV says the country has finalised a deal to build a pipeline to Pakistan capable of exporting 21.5 million cubic meters per day.

The Sunday report said exports will begin in 2014 after the 1,200 kilometer pipeline is finished on the Iranian side.

A state radio report report added that the project will cost US$7 billion (S$9.8 billion).

The project, known as the Pipeline of Peace, was initially expected to include India, but the country stayed out of the deal over security of the pipeline and price of transit through Pakistan.

HAS OBAMA LOST TURKEY AND PAKISTAN AND AFGHANISTAN OR JUST GIVEN THEM AWAY?

SAME DIFFERENCE: EITHER OBAMA IS AN INCOMPETENT AND AN APPEASER OR HE'S A JIHADO-LEFTIST WHO IS HELPING THE ENEMY ON PURPOSE.
