Suspicious man with al Qaeda literature arrested near Pentagon

From ABC News (via Michelle Malkin):
Police detained a man near the Sept. 11 memorial at the Pentagon this morning after he was reportedly found carrying a suspicious device and pro-al Qaeda literature, officials said.

The man appears to be a U.S. citizen of Ethiopian ethnicity. He would not make any admissions to the police.

The man’s backpack contained what officials believe is ammonium nitrate and spent 9mm shells as well as written material that contained statements including: “al qaeda taliban rules,” sources told ABC News.

One source told ABC News that they need final confirmation on whether it is ammonium nitrate and it’s not clear whether this was a workable device.
The suspect's been identified, and what do you know:
The man in custody for carrying a backpack with “suspicious items and products” inside Arlington National Cemetery overnight is a U.S. Marine Corps reservist, military and law enforcement sources tell Fox News.

Yonathan Melaku, a Lance Corporal Marine corps reservist who lives in Virginia and who is Muslim, has been identified as the suspect in custody, Fox News has learned.
There's just one quibble: if his name tells something, is he an Ethiopian with Jewish ancestry who converted to darkness? It's very scary to think about.

OBAMACARE'S PITFALLS: THEY WILL TOUCH EVERY AMERICAN

These pitfalls proliferate in the Health Care Reform Act, the bill that Pelosi so glibly told us would eventually reveal its specifics after it became law:



The specifics below will touch the vast majority of Americans in one way or another.

From Red State (hat tip to Conservatives on Fire):
Beginning January 1, 2013, ObamaCare imposes a 3.8% Medicare tax on unearned income, including the sale of single family homes, townhouses, co-ops, condominiums, and even rental income.

[...]

Like a lot of the poorly-designed, economic programs of this administration, this program will destroy more wealth than it ever gets around to actually transferring. The negative externalities of this proposal will be legion.....
Read the rest HERE. The specifics are disheartening, particularly for the middle class, as cited here:
This will also have a knock-on unemployment multiplier effect on the people who pave roads to new subdivisions. It will require fewer realtors and settlement attorneys to handle the decreased sales volume. Home values will adjust downward in reaction to the penalty tax that a homeowner has to pay to escape a current residence. This will lead to a downward pressure on tax assessments for residential property which will further complicate the efforts of state and local governments to run organizations such as schools.
According to GOP.gov:
This new ObamaCare tax is the first time the government will apply a 3.8 percent tax on unearned income. This new tax on home sales and unearned income and other Medicare taxes raise taxes more than $210 billion to pay for ObamaCare. The National Association of Realtors called this new Medicare tax on unearned income “destructive” and “ill-advised” and warned it would hurt job creation.
Under the Obama administration, middle-class America is well on the way to serfdom!

SCARY GRAFFITI FOUND IN PLANE, YET TSA FAILS TO RESPOND PROPERLY

The New York Post (via The Blaze) reports on jihadist graffiti found in a plane flying from Newark, NJ:
Chilling graffiti found in the bathroom of a jet due to take off from Newark Airport was inexplicably erased by a cleaner after the Transportation Safety Administration waited 47 critical minutes to contact cops, Port Authority sources told The Post yesterday.

"By the beard of Mohamed and mighty sword of Allah," read the message found on a Continental Airlines jet Saturday night. It was scrawled in black ink, just above the mirror.

The message was discovered by a flight attendant who took a cellphone picture and notified the captain. He called his operations center, which notified the TSA.

Port Authority cops said they didn't hear from the TSA for 47 minutes. The TSA said it notified the PA "within a few short minutes."
The cleaner deserves a severe reprimand for tampering with evidence, just as the TSA does for their own incompetence. Atlas Shrugs is correct, the TSA has got to go.

POLL FINDS THERE'S MORE SUPPORT FOR JEWS LIVING IN JUDEA/SAMARIA

According to the poll, there's also less support for negotiations:
According to the results of a public opinion survey presented on Thursday at the 21st conference of Judea and Samaria Studies at the Ariel University Center of Samaria, about half of Israel’s citizens who are not residents of Judea and Samaria (47%) would not accept evacuations of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria.

The survey also found that 20% of Israel’s citizens are prepared to evacuate a few illegal communities, while only 12% of Israeli citizens are willing to evacuate a small number of communities in exchange for ending the conflict with the Arabs.

The number of those citizens who are prepared to evacuate a large number or all the communities in Judea and Samaria has gone down from 27% in 2010 to 14% today. Only 5% of Israelis are ready to evacuate all the communities and return to the 1949 armistice lines, found the survey.

The survey also found that most Israelis no longer believe in the political process. A large majority of those polled (64%) believes that Israel’s accepting the solution of “two states for two peoples” would do nothing to solve the Israeli-Arab conflict, or would only briefly prevent it from escalating.
There you have it. Many Israelis have woken up and recognized the taqqiya behind the PLO's motives, and even how concessions only make things more dangerous for Israelis and easier for jihadists. That's a show of understanding realism.

IF TURKEY AIDS HAMAS IN GAZA, THEN MAYBE ISRAEL SHOULD AID THE PKK?

TURKEY DOES AID HAMAS IN GAZA, AND THEREFORE ISRAEL SHOULD AID THE PKK!

AND CHINA SHOULD AID THE CHECHENS, AND RUSSIA THE UIGHURS, AND FRANCE THE BASQUES, AND IRELAND THE IRA, AND PAKISTAN THE TAMILS, AND SO ON.

SERIOUSLY:

WHY IS IT THAT THE JIHADO-TERRORISTS WHO ATTACK ISRAEL FROM GAZA HAVE ANY INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT T ALL?

WHY DO THEY SEND PROVOCATIVE FLOTILLAS?

IT'S THE ANTISEMITISM, STUPID!

ISRAEL IS THE ONLY COUNTRY ON EARTH AND IN ALL HUMAN HISTORY NOT ALLOWED TO KEEP THE LAND IT WON IN WAR AND NOT ALLOWED TO DEFEND ITSELF.

IT'S SICKENING. IT'S ANTISEMITISM. IT WILL NOT STAND.


FRIDAY UPDATE: TURKEY WITHDRAWS FROM THE FLOTILLA.

GOOD. (DO WE GET RESULTS, OR WHAT!)

Britain Creating Parallel Islamic Financial System.

 "A British firm has launched a Sharia-compliant pension fund that will enable Muslims to save for retirement in compliance with Islamic principles.
The British government will begin offering Muslim workers Sharia-compliant pensions as of 2012. The launching of the funds, which are said to be structured around a strict code of ethics and based on the Muslim Koran and Islamic Sharia law (a religious code for living), reflects the gradual establishment of parallel Islamic financial and legal systems in British public life.
Pointon York, an independent financial services company based in Leicestershire in central England, announced on June 6 that it will begin offering four Sharia-compliant Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPP) products that do not bear interest nor invest in companies that trade in alcohol, gambling, pornography, tobacco or weapons, in conformity with Islamic law.
The growth of Islamic finance comes as other aspects of Sharia law are becoming enshrined in the British legal system. At least 85 Islamic Sharia courts are now operating in the country, almost 20 times as many as previously believed. A recent study by the London-based Civitas think tank titled "Sharia Law or 'One Law for All'?" found that scores of unofficial tribunals and councils regularly apply Islamic law to resolve domestic, marital and business disputes, many operating in mosques. It warns of a "creeping" acceptance of Sharia principles in British law.The study follows outcry over remarks by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, who has argued that adopting parts of Islamic Sharia law would help maintain social cohesion in Britain. He also said: Sharia law in Britain is "unavoidable." 
However, if you are NOT a mozlem, you cannot participate in this tax-payer rip-off!!

THIS INDIE BOOK SOUNDS TASTELESS

There's a new indie comic book coming out - a horror thriller, apparently - called "Graveyard of Empires" and it sounds like morally equivalent idiocy set in Afghanistan:
On sale now from Image Comics is Graveyard of Empires #1, the 32-page first chapter of a new limited series set against the war in Afghanistan. Created by Mark Sable (Unthinkable) and Paul Azaceta (Amazing Spider-Man, B.P.R.D.: 1946), the story is a prodigiously researched and unflinchingly violent depiction of what life is really like for American troops in this 10th year of war in Afghanistan, but with one critical difference: zombies, an undead threat that forces the Marines and the Taliban to work together to stop a common enemy.
What?!? I'm sorry, but I think there's a fine line to be drawn in the sand, and I wouldn't be surprised if the US army in real life would frown upon this premise. Especially the Navy Seals who conducted the successful raid on Osama bin Laden's hideout in Pakistan. Why, even the timing isn't good, coming several weeks after the Taliban tyrant was finished off and sent to hell.

The writer, Sable, said that:
Part of the reason Paul and I awe so passionate about this comic is that there is a real dearth of war comics, particularly those covering modern conflicts. That's surprising for a number reasons. One, comics has an amazing tradition of dealing with war, from Captain America to Blazing Combat and beyond. Because of how quickly and cheaply comics are produced, they can deal with war in real time, and bring an immediacy that no other fictional medium can.

The lack of modern war comics even more disturbing because we're in two (or more) wars right now. I suppose that reflects a broader cultural problem - so few are asked to sacrifice that moat of us don't feel the pain that war brings.

What's been nice about the reaction to the book so far is that there does seem to be a hunger for this type of book. Even the criticism so far has been from those who were expecting a straight war comic, rather than a military/horror conflict. Out of 32 pages in the first issue, only a couple deal with zombies.
His statement obscures a more challenging question - whether critics were turned off by the notion that the US military and the Taliban would work together against even a science-fiction enemy.

The following paragraph says:
The zombie element of Graveyard of Empires sneaks up on the reader in a startling fashion not unlike the way vampires suddenly appear in the middle of the film From Dusk 'Till Dawn. Prior to their arrival, Sable and Azaceta spend a great deal of time developing the grim setting and violent characters that populate both sides of the war. Among them, a new commanding officer whose hopes of endearing himself to his entrenched troops are slim-to-none; an opium-abusing Explosive Ordinance Disposal specialist, driven to drugs by the stress of dismantling bombs; a treacherous Afghan cop; a mutinous American sniper; a Female Engagement Officer whose job is to work with the grotesquely oppressed women of Afghanistan; and an Afghan surgeon forced by the Taliban to implant bombs inside of people. It's after we get these people that Sable lowers the zombie boom on them.
So let's see if I have this right: they acknowledge/allude to Afghanistan's Islamic shariah oppression of women (or do they?), but damage all that with ridiculous ideas like a drug-addicted bomb-disarmer, and a US sniper who's mutinous, which could mean he's willing to desert. And then Sable's own press comment continues with:
While there will be more horror in the next few issues, we don't plan on losing sight of the very real people on both sides of the conflict. As a plot device, zombies serve to do something that would otherwise be inconceivable - force US Marines and Taliban to cooperate against a common threat. Metaphorically, the zombies represent a force not unlike the Taliban. A foe with inscrutable motives that doesn't seem to need to eat or sleep, and no matter how many you kill...they just keep coming.

We hope the horror aspect will tempt readers who might not otherwise try a war book, while fans of military fiction will finally find the comic they've been waiting for.
Whether fans of horror thrillers would try a war book, I don't think fans of army fiction are going to appreciate the idea of the US army and the Taliban working together, no matter how bad those zombies are in comparison with the Taliban. Mainly because, as seen in that panel on the side, the zombie there appears to be spawned out of a dead US soldier. And even if there's some zombies turning up spawned from the stiffs of Taliban terrorists, it doesn't counteract the bad taste left by the idea of the good guys teaming up with the terrorists. Certainly not after the amazing victory achieved in the past month.

UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL...

NY26: OBAMA'S ROADMAP TO VICTORY IN 2012

Jay Cost has written a piece showing why Obama probably is gonna lose in 2012.

I mostly agree, but there is ONE way Obama can win:

A credible 3 or 4 way race in which two or three other candidates jump in and tip it for Obama who wins with less than 50% - like Clinton.

Nader, Paul, Huntsman and Palin ... they could tip it for Obama.

Just as a third party candidate did in NY26.

Too make it worse, perhaps Obama dunps Biden - from the itsybitsyteenyweeny state od Delaware and picks Huntsman, Bill Nelson or Warner as veep - to appeal to the cemter and maybe grab/hold a big electoral vote state.

And then - to counter - Romney picks a RINO like Christie or Rudy even Daniels.

So... Paul runs. And MAYBE even Palin jumps in - or Bachmann.

Then I think Obama wins.

Repeat: NY26 showed them how to do it.

NY26 was the dry run.

ONE WAY TO STOP IT:

PERRY WINS THE NOMINATION AND PICKS PAWLENTY. OR KASICH. OR RUBIO.

I THINK THESE TICKETS MIGHT BE UNBEATABLE.

IRAN LAUNCHES ANOTHER ROCKET INTO SPACE

JPOST: 'Iran successfully launches satellite into orbit'
Rasad 1 satellite will be used for transmitting images, weather forecasts, Iran TV reports...

US fears ballistic missiles could carry warheads.


Iran increased its presence in space on Wednesday with the successful launch of a new satellite.

Israel is concerned that Tehran’s space program is cover for the development of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) that could carry nuclear warheads.
THE CLOCK IS TICKING - AND SO IS THE CALENDAR:

IF WE LET IRAN GET NUKES - AND MISSILES TO LAUNCH THEM - THEN WE MIGHT AS WELL TURN BACK THE CALENDAR TO THE 11TH CENTURY.

GEORGETOWN'S DHIMMITUDE, CAIR, AND SAUDI ARABIAN MONEY

PJM:

Georgetown University has some explaining to do based on documents obtained exclusively by PJM from a confidential law enforcement source. The documents reveal a scheme to pass $325,000 through the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which has been identified by the FBI as a front for the Hamas terrorist organization. The money was paid to Georgetown by the 57-nation Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) to promote its “Islamophobia” agenda, which includes its stated international objective of criminalizing any criticism of Islam.

Even more troubling: evidence that Georgetown is not the only American university to cooperate with CAIR and the OIC in their joint plan to subvert the First Amendment right to free speech.

BUT THIS IS CHICKENFEED COMPARED TO THE MONEY THEY GOT FROM SAUDI ARABIA:

Monday, December 12, 2005

SAUDI PRINCE GIVES TENET ALMA MATER, GEORGETOWN, $20 MILLION
20 MILLION BUCKS FOR GEORGETOWN. THEIR 2ND LARGEST GIFT EVER.

... REMEMBER: THIS IS THE SAME PRINCE WHOSE 10 MILLION BUCKS RUDY FAMOUSLY TURNED DOWN JUST AFTER 9/11. AND THIS IS THE PRINCE WHO BOUGHT INTO FOX NEWS AND HAS ALREADY GOT THEM TO ALTER THEIR COVERAGE AND MAKE IT MORE PRO-MUSLIM.

... UPDATE: Look at it this way - Rudy told this Saudi Prince, (who blamed the USA's foreign policy-- SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL --- for the 9/11 attack!), to take the money and SHOVE IT! Rupert/Fox and Tenet/Georgetown took the Saudi's money. More HERE. ANOTHER ANGLE: It's not as if we need to make college kids MORE PRO-Muslim, do we!? What does that do for the USA?
THIS MONEY IS INFLUENCING THESE INSTITUTIONS - AND IN WAYS THAT ARE ANTI-AMERICAN AND ANTI-WEST.

UNIVERSITIES SHOULD DO WHAT RUDY DID: TURN DOWN THE MONEY!

REP. PETER KING'S HEARINGS ON MUSLIM RADICALIZATION IN PRISONS

The Daily Caller writes about the committee hearing Rep. Peter King gave on Muslim recruitment in prisons, and the rebuttal he had to give to Rep. Laura Richardson who tried to term it as "racist", making her yet one more person who cannot distinguish between religion and race:
During King’s Wednesday hearing on “The Threat of Muslim-American Radicalization in U.S. Prisons,” Democratic committee member Rep. Laura Richardson alleged that the inquiry could “be deemed as racist and as discriminatory.”

King did not take kindly to the charge, telling the committee that political correctness has gotten in the way of safety.

“I disagree 100 percent with the gentlelady. She is entirely wrong,” King said. “The fact is this committee was set up to combat terrorism. It was set up after September 11. As the Gentleman Mr. [Lamar] Smith [R-TX] has testified, there are already procedures in place which follow gangs when they leave prison. We have protocols in place for that. Unfortunately because of too many instances of political correctness, we do not have protocols in place to follow those who were trained in jihad in the prisons. That is why this is unique.” [...]

“I would say to the gentlelady, your party had control of this committee for four years. Not one hearing at all on anything involving Skinheads, on Nazis, on the Ayran Nation, on white supremacists at all. Certainly this issue emerges when we start talking about Muslim radicalization. That is the purpose of this committee. We have a Judiciary Committee to deal with other issues in the prisons.”
Sad as it is, there may actually be some neo-nazis on the loose in the mid-south, like during the time of the murder of Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian by a black gang in Tennessee, and some neo-nazis, clearly intent on undermining the effort to combat black-on-white violence, exploited the situation for hatemongering. I have no doubt they were actually trying to help the villains. Were villains like those neo-nazis ever the focus of the committee when the Democrats controlled it? If not, then we have to wonder if they really are concerned about even those monsters.

But aside from this, is Peter King going to be more respectable and responsible when it comes to inviting witnesses and experts, and not shun people like Steve Emerson and Ayaan Hirsi Ali who could have some vital info to offer? If he continues what he did last time he was running this committee, then he'll only be performing what he accuses the rivals of stooping to.

Labour: London borough becomes 'Islamic republic'

 "Outside the Wellington Way polling station in Tower Hamlets yesterday, as at many other polling stations in the borough, people had to run a gauntlet of Lutfur Rahman supporters to reach the ballot box. As one Bengali woman voter went past them, we heard one of the Rahman army scolding her for her “immodest dress.”
That incident is perhaps a tiny taste of the future for Britain’s poorest borough now it has elected Mr Rahman as its first executive mayor, with almost total power over its £1 billion budget. At the count last night, one very senior figure in the Tower Hamlets Labour Party said: “It really is Britain’s Islamic republic now.”"

Scientists Concerned We May Enter an Ice Age

I got this off Yahoo News, via AFP:
Scientists predict rare 'hibernation' of sunspots

WASHINGTON (AFP) – For years, scientists have been predicting the Sun would by around 2012 move into solar maximum, a period of intense flares and sunspot activity, but lately a curious calm has suggested quite the opposite.

According to three studies released in the United States on Tuesday, experts believe the familiar sunspot cycle may be shutting down and heading toward a pattern of inactivity unseen since the 17th century.

The signs include a missing jet stream, fading spots, and slower activity near the poles, said experts from the National Solar Observatory and Air Force Research Laboratory.

"This is highly unusual and unexpected," said Frank Hill, associate director of the NSO's Solar Synoptic Network, as the findings of the three studies were presented at the annual meeting of the American Astronomical Society's Solar Physics Division in Las Cruces, New Mexico.

"But the fact that three completely different views of the Sun point in the same direction is a powerful indicator that the sunspot cycle may be going into hibernation."

Solar activity tends to rise and fall every 11 years or so. The solar maximum and solar minimum each mark about half the interval of the magnetic pole reversal on the Sun, which happens every 22 years.

Hill said the current cycle, number 24, "may be the last normal one for some time and the next one, cycle 25, may not happen for some time.

"This is important because the solar cycle causes space weather which affects modern technology and may contribute to climate change," he told reporters.

Experts are now probing whether this period of inactivity could be a second Maunder Minimum, which was a 70-year period when hardly any sunspots were observed between 1645-1715, a period known as the "Little Ice Age."

"If we are right, this could be the last solar maximum we'll see for a few decades. That would affect everything from space exploration to Earth's climate," said Hill.
 Three things to note here:

1) This article implicitly admits that the Earth's "climate" is heavily influenced by solar activity. This is implicit in the assumptions of the article, because it is scientifically true.

2) The article suggests we could be entering a "little Ice Age". We here at the Astute Bloggers have been predicting this for several years.

3) In admitting that "climate change" is influenced by the sun, and admitting that scientists don't seem to have much of a handle on what the sun will do from one decade to the next, the article explicitly admits that scientists do not know what the climate is going to do from one decade to the next.

MUSLIM SEX-SLAVEMONGERS WANT BLONDES, PREFERABLY RUSSIAN

Nonie Darwish has written on Front Page Magazine (via The Blaze) about sex-slave advocation in the Muslim world, and a Kuwaiti woman has already "prostituted" herself for the sake of this vulgarity:
When Muslim Sheikhs discuss the topic of sexual slavery of women, which is allowed in the Qur’an, it comes out a bit politically incorrect even to the taste of the majority of Muslims, who have long forgotten that slavery is a well-established institution in Islam. Saudi Arabia officially abolished slavery as late as 1962, not because Islam made the Saudis do it, but because the Saudis wanted to save face after an international cry against slavery. But now some Muslims are demanding its return. So Muslim spin misters are advocating the embarrassing, but legal, topic through the mouths of Muslim women.

A Kuwaiti woman who is called an “activist” and former candidate to the Kuwaiti parliament, spoke to the Kuwait Times about the establishment of a new law permitting men to buy and sell non-Muslim girls, captured in jihad, as sexual slaves in order to protect Muslim men against seductive sexual immorality. The Arabic Al Arabiya had more details on what that woman, Salwa al-Mutairi, is advocating:

Ms. Mutairi who was nice enough to put the minimum age of 15 for slave girls, Christian Jews or other, to be sold. She demanded the immediate establishment of slave agencies just like agencies for maids, where the slave girls will earn a whopping 50 Kuwaiti Dinar monthly and in return will cook, clean, take care of the kids and be the slave of the wife during the day. But her job does not end there; at night, whenever Mutairi is not in the mood, then her husband will not stray too far away from the house, since it is halal (kosher) for the husband to have sex with the slave girls without any marriage or unnecessary paper to satisfy his sexual pleasures. Better do it at home under the watchful eyes of the wife and kids only for 50 Dinars. Wow, what a deal!

Mutairi was especially interested in Russian slave girls since Muslim men do prefer them blond. Russian, European and American blond women, better watch out, the Muslims are coming! The plan is for Muslims in Chechnya to kidnap Russian girls after a jihadist operation and then will sell them to the Kuwaitis. The price of the sale per her suggestion would be 2500 Kuwaiti dinars.
By any chance, does this sound like "aryan worship" in reverse? In a way, I figure, it is. This is also coming soon after the equally gross news of a cleric in Egypt who declared it okay to take infidel women as sex slaves. It's even more disturbing though, when a Muslim woman condones the practice, courtesy of the Islamic indoctrination, of course.

OBAMA AGONISTES: "IT'S THE MISSING IRRATIONAL EXUBERANCE, STUPID!"

OBAMA WAS ELECTED BY 5 THINGS:
  1. $1 BILLION IN CAMPAIGN FUNDS - (AFTER HE HAD PROMISED HE WAS ONLY GOING TO TAKE FEDERAL CAMPAIGN FUNDS)
  2. AN OPPONENT WHO REFUSED TO ATTACK HIM
  3. A RECESSION
  4. AN IRRATIONAL EXUBERANCE ABOUT HIM
  5. A HUGE BLACK TURNOUT AND A SLIGHTLY DEPRESSED WHITE TURNOUT
ALL HE WILL HAVE GOING FOR HIM THIS TIME WILL BE THE MEGA-MONEY HE CAN RAISE - AND HE MAY FALL SHORT THIS GO ROUND:
  • HIS GOP OPPONENT WILL ATTACK HIM THIS TIME
  • THERE IS, FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, STILL A RECESSION
  • AND THE THRILL - THE IRRATIONAL EXUBERANCE WHICH GLOSSED OVER HIS WEAK RESUME AND WEAK ORATING SKILLS - IS FADING FAST EVERYWHERE, (EXCEPT MAYBE THE MEDIA AND AMONG BLACKS AND ANTISEMITES) -
  • HIS SUPPORT IS EVEN ERODING AMONG BLACKS AND THE YOUTH
THE KEY IS THE MISSING IRRATIONAL EXUBERANCE:

WITHOUT THE IRRATIONAL EXUBERANCE - WHICH ENABLED LIBERALS TO DENY ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING BAD ABOUT HIM - OBAMA WILL LOSE - BADLY.

IOW: THE HONEYMOON IS OVER. MANY PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR HIM ARE DISAPPOINTED. MANY WHO VOTED AGAINST HIM FEEL VINDICATED. SOME OF THESE FORMER OBAMANUTS MAY VOTE FOR HIM - BUT THEY WILL HOLD THEIR NOSES. MANY WILL STAY HOME. HE WILL LOSE BADLY.

HE DESERVES TO.

THE ONLY WAY HE CAN MAYBE STILL WIN IS IF THERE IS A CREDIBLE 3-WAY OR 4-WAY RACE: RON PAUL, PALIN - OR A TEA PARTY CANDIDATE, AND RALPH NADER COULD BE SPOILERS.

OTHERWISE, ANY COMBINATION OF ROMNEY, PAWLENTY, PERRY, RUBIO, DANIELS, JINDAL OR CHRISTIE WILL DEMOLISH OBAMA.

YEAH, BABY!

UNREAL BREAKING NEWS: PAKISTAN ARRESTS CIA'S INFORMANTS WHO AIDED ASSASSINATION OF BINLADEN

UNREAL BREAKING NEWS:
PAKISTAN ARRESTS CIA'S INFORMANTS WHO AIDED ASSASSINATION OF BINLADEN
THIS IS NEARLY AN ACT OF WAR!

OBAMA MUST ACT SWIFTLY AND FIRMLY TO THIS.

MORE:
Pakistan’s top military spy agency has arrested some of the Pakistani informants who fed information to the Central Intelligence Agency in the months leading up to the raid that led to the death of Osama bin Laden, according to American officials.

A casualty of the recent tension between the countries is an ambitious Pentagon program to train Pakistani paramilitary troops to fight Al Qaeda and the Taliban in the northwestern tribal areas.

Pakistan’s detention of five C.I.A. informants, including a Pakistani Army major who officials said copied the license plates of cars visiting Bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan, in the weeks before the raid, is the latest evidence of the fractured relationship between the United States and Pakistan. It comes at a time when the Obama administration is seeking Pakistan’s support in brokering an endgame in the war in neighboring Afghanistan.
THE PAKIS DON'T WANT AN END GAME IN AFGHANISTAN.

AND NEITHER TO THE PAKIS NEW PATRON: THE CHINESE.

WE MUSTN'T TAKE THIS LYING DOWN.

WE SHOULD AT LEAST SUSPEND ALL AID - YES ALL AID, INCLUDING THE $200 MILLION ON FLOOD AID WE ANNOUNDED TODAY! - AND PERHAPS EVEN QUARANTINE PAKISTAN, AND FREEZE ALL THEIR ASSETS UNTIL THEY RELEASE THESE MEN.

STAY TUNED.

TWO DOCUMENTED INTERNATIONAL TERRORIST GROUPS TO FORM GOVERNMENT DEDICATED TO DISMEMBERING ISRAEL

IS THE FACEBOOK BUBBLE ABOUT TO BURST?

SEEMS LIKE IT: DRUDGE:
FACEBOOK'S POWER AND PERCEIVED VALUE DEPEND ON THE FACT THAT IT HAS SO MANY "USERS" - ONLY MANY PEOPLE DON'T REALLY USE IT AND EVIDENTLY MORE AND MORE ARE QUITTING.

THIS IS A REAL BUBBLE IN MY OPINION, JUST LIKE THE NASDAQ BUBBLE AND THE NEW ECONOMY BUBBLE - BOTH IF WHICH BURSTED ON CLINTON'S WATCH.

I THINK GOLDMAN SACHS IS BEHIND FACEBOOK, TOO
- WHICH ONLY MAKES ME MORE SKEPTICAL ABOUT IT.

(BACKGROUND HERE.)

STAY TUNED - IT COULD BE A ROCKY RIDE: OBAMA'S BUBBLE IS BURSTING, SO IS CHINA'S. AND MAYBE FACEBOOK'S TOO.

OY.

WEINER: A SCHLEMIEL AND A PUTZ AND A SCHMUCK, AND...

AND A SHONDA FOR THE GOYIM!

TWO SIMPLE TOOLS THAT CAN HELP YOU TO DEPROGRAM A LIBERAL

CONSIDER THIS MY HUMBLE CONTRIBUTION TO THE MAKE AMERICA RATIONAL PROGRAM:

HERE IS THE SIMPLEST WAY TO GET A LIB TO REEXAMINE THEIR ATTACHMENT TO BIG GOVERNMENT:
WHEN A LIBERAL POLITICIAN COMMITS A GRIEVOUS ERROR - LIKE RANGEL AND WEINER HAVE - TELL A LIBERAL YOU KNOW ABOUT IT. ASK THEM WHAT THEY THINK.

THEY WILL PROBABLY REPLY, DEFENSIVELY:

"BIG DEAL: ALMOST ALL POLITICIANS ARE CORRUPT."

THEN REPLY:

"THAT'S A MAJOR REASON NOT TO HAVE BIG GOVERNMENT: THE BIGGER GOVERNMENT IS THE MORE THE POLITICIANS CAN DO FAVORS FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR FRIENDS. THE SMALLER GOVERNMENT IS, THE FEWER FAVORS THEY CAN DO FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR FRIENDS."
THAT USUALLY GETS THE RIGHT GEARS MOVING INSIDE THEIR BRAINS. THEY WILL FIGHT IT - COGNITIVE DISSONANCE IS A PRETTY REFLEXIVE THING.

BUT IT'S A VERY NON-PARTISAN ARGUMENT AND EVENTUALLY IT SINKS IN.

TRY IT.

ANOTHER GREAT TOOL IS DENIS PRAGER'S TEST: ARE YOU A LIBERAL?

YOU'D BE SHOCKED HOW CONSERVATIVE MANY LIBERALS REALLY ARE - AND THEY'RE USUALLY MORE SHOCKED.

FIND A LIBERAL AND ASK HER OR HIM TO ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS "YES" OR "NO":

You say you are a liberal.

Do you believe the following?

1.Standards for admissions to universities, fire departments, etc. should be lowered for people of color.

2.Bilingual education for children of immigrants, rather than immersion in English, is good for them and for America.

3.Murderers should never be put to death.

4.During the Cold War, America should have adopted a nuclear arms freeze.

5.Colleges should not allow ROTC programs.

6.It was wrong to wage war against Saddam Hussein in the Gulf War.

7.Poor parents should not be allowed to have vouchers to send their children to private schools.

8.It is good that trial lawyers and teachers unions are the two biggest contributors to the Democratic Party.

9.Marriage should be redefined from male-female to any two people.

10.A married couple should not have more of a right to adopt a child than two men or two women.

11.The Boy Scouts should not be allowed to use parks or any other public places and should be prohibited from using churches and synagogues for their meetings.

12.The present high tax rates are good.

13.Speech codes on college campuses are good and American values are bad.

14.The Israelis and Palestinians are morally equivalent.

15.The United Nations is a moral force for good in the world, and therefore America should be subservient to it and such international institutions as a world court.

16.It is good that colleges have dropped hundreds of men's sports teams in order to meet gender-based quotas.

17.No abortions can be labeled immoral.

18.Restaurants should be prohibited by law from allowing customers to choose between a smoking and a non-smoking section.

19.High schools should make condoms available to students and teach them how to use them.

20.Racial profiling for terrorists is wrong -- a white American grandmother should as likely be searched as a Saudi young male.

21.Racism and poverty -- not a lack of fathers and a crisis of values -- are the primary causes of violent crime in the inner city.

22.It is wrong and unconstitutional for students to be told, "God bless you" at their graduation.

23.No culture is morally superior to any other.

NOW COUNT UP THE YEA'S AND THE NAY'S.

SOME FOLKS I KNOW WHO ARE VERY VERY LEFT - OR SO THEY THOUGHT - FOUND POUT THEY ARE REALLY MODERATES WHO AGREE WITH THE GOP AND DISAGREE WITH THE DEMOCRATS 50% OF THE TIME.

WHEN THEY DISCOVER THIS, THEY START TO LOSE SOME OF THEIR PARTISANSHIP, AND THAT'S THE BEGINNING OF THE END.

(WHICH IS, BTW, WHY THE LIBERALS MACHINE SO DESPERATELY WANT THEIR ACOLYTES NOT TO WATCH FOX: THEY KNOW THAT ONCE SOMEONE SEES THE REAL NEWS, THEY'LL REALIZE HOW PROPAGANDIZED THEY'VE BEEN THEIR WHOLE LIVES.

AND THAT MEANS THEY'LL PROBABLY BECOME INDEPENDENT VOTERS AND EVENTUALLY CONSERVATIVES.

SO THEY HAVE TO MAKE FOX INTO A PARIAH.)

DAVID MAMET: A LIB WHO SAW THE LIGHT

1 - ON HUGH HEWITT:
HH: ... Do you have any hope that he’s going to turn this around?

DM: Turn what, turn what around, Hugh?

HH: The economy, his administration, his, well, he’s incompetent as can be. He’s a failed presidency already.

DM: Well, how can you turn the economy around? The only way to turn the economy around is to let the economy go. For God’s sake, I mean, how many times must this be proved, that the money you give to the government is waste. The best that they’re going to do is give some of it back to the people who support them.
2 - IN THE JPOST:
“There is a profound and ineradicable taint of anti-Semitism in the British,” he was quoted as saying by the Financial Times. “The paradigmatic Brit as far as the Middle East goes is [TE] Lawrence. That’s just the fact. Even before the oil was there, you loved the desert. It had all these wacky characters ... But there is a Jewish state there ratified by the United Nations and you want to give it away to some people whose claim is rather dubious.”

The combative playwright famed for his masterpiece "Glengarry Glen Ross" and scripts for films such as Wag the Dog and The Verdict declined to name names of living British authors with an allegedly anti-Semitic bent because of the U.K’s “horrendous libel laws” but said there were many.

... In the interview Mamet said he was an admirer of Republican Sarah Palin and opposed US President Barack Obama on several grounds including his perceived policies towards Israel.

“The question is can he run on his record in 2012 and the answer is no, because it’s abysmal,” he said. “He took a trillion dollars and where it went, nobody knows. He dismantled healthcare, he weakened America around the world, he sold out the state of Israel. All he’s got to run on is being a Democrat and indicting the other fellow.”
3 - ON RUSHBO:
What were the catalysts that made you even question your liberalism?

MAMET: Well, I think the first one was around the 2004 election, and I went to synagogue, as I do regularly. The rabbi was talking about political civility, and he said it's in the Judeo-Christian tradition that before you criticize someone you have to sit down with them and restate their position to them such that they'll say, "Yes, that's what I mean," and then they have to state your position to you so that you say, "Yes," so you both agree that you understand what the positions are, then you each introduce your facts. So I wanted to... I took the advice to heart. I said: "Well, as a good liberal I better be able to state the conservative position." (chuckles) So I started researching and I started reading, and it dawned on me that I was not a liberal, that although I could state the position of who I thought were my enemies, the conservatives, I could not rationally state the position of the liberals.

...

MAMET: Well, like Lincoln said: "If slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong," and I feel the same way about the leftist dismantling of the West. If that's not wrong, then nothing is wrong -- and I've got a good model for people saying, "Perhaps the truth lies somewhere in between," and that's the state of Israel which has been defending itself daily against constant attack for 60 years from people whose avowed purpose is to kill every Jew in Israel and then to kill the rest of the Jews in the world. People on the left say, "Yes, but obviously if there's two parties to the dispute, the truth must lie somewhere in between," and I don't see where the truth lies in between in Israel and I really don't see where the truth lies in between the liberals and the conservatives. The liberals say, "Are you arguing there must be no government?" Of course not. I'm arguing that the government should be representative of the people's interests.

...

MAMET: I was a liberal, which meant that I voted for the liberal team. It meant that... You know what it meant, Rush? It meant that I was excused from thinking.

RUSH: Were you born liberal and then confirmed --

MAMET: Sure. Yeah.

RUSH: -- or you just didn't question the way you were?

MAMET: Sure. My dad was an immigrant kid and a Democrat and a Jew, and we didn't know any Republicans in our group. So I grew up Democratic. My dad was a labor lawyer -- a very hardworking guy, a one horse labor lawyer -- and then I went to hippie college and lived in the bubble. I didn't knowingly meet a conservative until, to my shame, I was 60 years old and sat down and said, "Wow, I don't understand what this guy's talking about, but he has a great civility about him. Perhaps I better investigate this thing."
4 - IN THE FORWARD:
Mamet sums up the reasons behind his dramatic conversion from left to right in this pull quote from the book:
My interest in politics began when I noticed that I acted differently than I spoke, that I had seen ‘the government’ commit sixty years of fairly unrelieved and catastrophic error nationally and internationally, that I not only hated every wasted hard-earned cent I spent in taxes, but the trauma and misery they produced…
... Slate zeroed in on Mamet’s revealing that he is a big fan of Sarah Palin.
“I am crazy about her. Would she make a good candidate for president? I don’t know but she seems to have succeeded at everything she put her hand to,” the dramatist reportedly said. Gapper went on to say Mamet compared Palin to a late friend in Cabot, Vt., where he owns a cabin. His friend was “a hardworking guy, a man of honor who was looking out for the town’s interests. I thought of him when I saw Sarah Palin. She started with the PTA and then became the mayor and then governor [of Alaska]. I thought, well, OK. That’s someone who knows how to work.”
AWESOME.

THAT MAMET SAW THE LIGHT GIVES ME GREAT HOPE.

The Blood Libel and UK Parliament

Here is an announcement of a meeting in Parliament later this month. It is being organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign and Sara Apps, the wife of former Labour MP Martin "Tentacles" Linton. Note that three Labour MPs are scheduled to speak: Richard Burden, Jeremy Corbyn, and Yasmin Qureshi. Labour peer Alf Dubbs is another speaker. They will be joined by Ismail Patel and Ben White, among others.
But the star of the show is likely to be Raed Salah.
 "Salah is the head of the northern branch of the Islamic Movement in Israel. He is a thug, a racist, and a Hamas supporter. One of his special skills is starting riots. You can read more about his background here and here.
This dreadful blood libel sums him up well:
During the speech at the February 16, 2007 protest in the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Wadi Joz, Salah accused Jews of using children’s blood to bake bread.
“We have never allowed ourselves to knead [the dough for] the bread that breaks the fast in the holy month of Ramadan with children’s blood,” he said. “Whoever wants a more thorough explanation, let him ask what used to happen to some children in Europe, whose blood was mixed in with the dough of the [Jewish] holy bread.”
“Great God, is this a religion?” he asked. “Is this what God would want? God will deal with you yet for what you are doing.”"

MORE PROOF CHINA'S ECONOMIC GROWTH IS UNSUSTAINABLE: INFLATION IN MAY WAS NEARLY 6% AND IT'S EXECTED TO BE 6% IN JUNE

THE CHINA BUBBLE MAY SOON BURST:

Inflation in China hit its highest level in 34 months despite the government's efforts to rein in rising prices.

Consumer prices in China rose by 5.5% in May, compared with the same month last year, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.

Food prices continued to be the biggest factor as they surged by 11.7%

The rising cost of food and commodities have pushed up the cost of living and become a hot political issue in China.

Analysts warned that prices are likely to rise even further.

"For now, it seems certain that China's CPI will hit 6% in June," said Xu Biao of China Merchants Bank.

BETTER BRACE YOURSELVES, FOLKS

WHEN THE CHNA BUBBLE BURSTS, IT WILL MAKE THE US HOUSING BUBBLE BURST LOOK LIKE A LITTLE .... BUMP IN THE ROAD.

OBAMA MONEY-MACHINE FALTERING?

POLITICO - (EXCERPT, RTWT):
A low-dollar fundraiser here Monday felt like a throwback to the 2008 campaign.

There was the same old soundtrack – including “City of Blinding Lights” by U2, the president’s 2008 anthem -- the enthusiastic organizers and the abundant appeals for supporters to rally behind President Obama.

The one missing element? Overflowing crowds.

Granted, it was a fundraiser, not a free rally. But the empty seats were hard to miss.

The top level of the 2,200-seat concert hall at the Adrienne Arsht Center for Performing Arts was entirely empty, as were the seats along the side of the second and third levels.
THIS IS A GOOD INDICATOR OF THE LOW ENTHUSIASM LIBS HAVE FOR OBAMA.

WITHOUT A HUGE MONEY ADVANTAGE, OBAMA CANNOT WIN OR STEAL THE ELECTION IN 2012.

TURKEY MARCHES CLOSER TO DOOM

Ryan Mauro writes on Front Page Magazine about Recep Tayyip Erdogan's predictable victory in the Turkish elections. Even if they didn't quite get the majority they're coveting, they'll still be in a very fearsome position to rewrite the country's laws to fit sharia:
The election actually results in a slight loss for the AKP. The party currently holds 331 of the 550 seats in parliament, and is projected to now only have 325. The Islamists must win the support of only five non-AKP seats to put up a draft constitution for a referendum. The popularity of Prime Minister Erdogan and his party means that such a referendum is very likely to pass. The AKP may not have the two-thirds majority that would have allowed for a unilateral writing of the constitution, or even enough to unilaterally submit a draft for a referendum, but not much stands in its way.
I didn't think so either. Eventually, there's every chance they'll do away with what's left of the democratic system and establish a full dictatorship.

PALIN'S TRIG EMAIL MIGHT BE ONE OF THE 5 GREATEST THINGS EVER WRITTEN BY AN AMERICAN POLITICAN

NOT INCLUDING ACTUAL SPEECHES, LINCOLN'S LETTER TO MRS. BIXBY IS THE GREATEST THING WRITTEN BY AN AMERICAN POLITICIAN:

Executive Mansion,
Washington, Nov. 21, 1864.

Dear Madam,

I have been shown in the files of the War Department a statement of the Adjutant General of Massachusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have died gloriously on the field of battle.

I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming.

But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save.

I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.

Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,

A. Lincoln

PALIN'S IS ALMOST AS GOOD, AND WOULD'VE BEEN JUST AS GOOD IF IT WAS A LITTLE SHORTER.

IT'S A MUST READ.

I READ IT TWICE AND CRIED EACH TIME.

IF IT DOESN'T BRING TEARS TO YOUR EYES THEN YOU'RE A POSTMODERN LEFTIST.

REAGAN'S FAREWELL LETTER IS ANOTHER GREAT ONE:
My Fellow Americans,

I have recently been told that I am one of the millions of Americans who will be afflicted with Alzheimer's disease.

Upon learning this news, Nancy and I had to decide whether as private citizens we would keep this a private matter or whether we would make this news known in a public way.

In the past Nancy suffered from breast cancer and I had my cancer surgeries. We found through our open disclosures we were able to raise public awareness. We are happy that as a result many more people underwent testing.

They were treated in early stages and able to return to normal, healthy lives.

So now, we feel it is important to share it with you. In opening our hearts, we hope this might promote greater awareness of this condition. Perhaps it will encourage a clearer understanding of the individuals and families who are affected by it.

At the moment I feel just fine. I intend to live the remainder of the years God gives me on this earth doing the things I have always done. I will continue to share life's journey with my beloved Nancy and my family. I plan to enjoy the great outdoors and stay in touch with my friends and supporters.

Unfortunately, as Alzheimer's disease progresses, the family often bears a heavy burden. I only wish there was some way I could spare Nancy from this painful experience. When the time comes I am confident that with your help she will face it with faith and courage.

In closing let me thank you, the American people, for giving me the great honor of allowing me to serve as your President. When the Lord calls me home, whenever that may be, I will leave with the greatest love for this country of ours and eternal optimism for its future.

I now begin the journey that will lead me into the sunset of my life. I know that for America there will always be a bright new dawn ahead.

Thank you, my friends. May God always bless you.

Sincerely,

Ronald Reagan
WHAT ARE THE OTHER TWO?

FATAH'S LEADER IN GAZA - DAHLAN EXPELLED; MAY CAUSE INTRA-FATAH SCHISM

Dozens of Fatah members on Monday threatened to quit in protest against the decision to expel former security commander Muhammad Dahlan from the ruling faction.

The Fatah Central Committee, at the request of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas (who also heads Fatah), decided over the weekend to expel Dahlan and recommended that he be charged with corruption and other criminal offenses.
Dahlan’s expulsion is seen as a victory for Abbas and old guard Fatah leaders.

The move is also seen as a severe blow to Fatah supporters in the Gaza Strip, where Dahlan remains a popular figure and is regarded by some as a potential successor to Abbas.

Fatah representatives warned that the Abbas-Dahlan dispute could lead to a split in the faction. They said that many Fatah activists in the Gaza Strip were threatening to quit in protest against the dismissal of Dahlan.

One activist said that at least 30 Fatah members have already expressed their intention to quit. He pointed out that six members of the Fatah Central Committee did not vote in favor of the recommendation to expel Dahlan.

“If Dahlan is forced out of Fatah, it will be the end of the party,” the activist said.
IMHO: DAHLAN EXPULSION WAS PART OF THE DEAL ABBAS MADE WITH HAMAS.

THE DEAL WON'T LAST.

NO SURPRISE ARAB INTERNECINE WAR IS THE NORM.

OBAMA AND THE SHOVEL

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT IS SHOVEL READY:
  • THE BULLSHIT THAT COMES OUT OF OBAMA'S MOUTH. NOW THAT IS SHOVEL READY!

CAN'T WAIT. I HOPE WE SURVIVE UNTIL THEN!

EPA Is Retreating Temporarily: 2 Month Hold Put On New Rules On Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Power Plants and Other Major "Polluters"

From the New York Times Blog:
The Environmental Protection Agency, facing intense opposition from Congressional Republicans and industry over a broad range of new air quality regulations, said Monday that it was delaying by two months the release of a proposed rule on greenhouse gas emissions from power plants and other major pollution sources.
The delay of the rule, which will have a major impact on the nation’s efforts to reduce emissions of gases blamed for the warming of the planet, is the latest step by the E.P.A. to slow the issuing of regulations that its critics claim will hurt economic growth, drive up energy costs and cut employment. The delay is a tacit admission that the regulations pose difficult political, economic and technical challenges that cannot be addressed on the aggressive timetable the agency set for itself early in the Obama administration.

THE TIDE IS TURNING!

GM to Invest $20 Million in Kansas City Plant

From AP:

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — General Motors Co. is adding $20 million in new technology to an assembly plant in Kansas City.

MIGHT GM AND CHRYSLER PLANT INVESTMENTS IN THE USA BE TIMED TO HELP OBAMA?

ARMY AND POLICE CORRUPTION

First, a disturbing case of an IDF commander who targeted soldiers living in Judea for the following:
Brigadier General Nitzan Alon, commander of the IDF’s Judea and Samaria division, has distributed a letter to commanders in his division in which he asks them to investigate soldiers who are residents of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria. The reason for the request, according to Alon, is a concern that these soldiers may leak information regarding future evacuation of outpost communities.

[...]

Benny Katzover, chairman of the Samaria Residents’ Committee, also responded to Alon’s letter, saying: “Only a leftist officer such as Brigadier General Nitzan Alon would push away from military service soldiers who have different political views from his own. This is an intolerable discrimination between soldiers simply because of political affiliation, and it should be examined by the officials in charge of the division commander.”
Following this, what happened? The police went and raided a Shomron news agency in a kind of "revenge" raid:
Early this morning, hours after a Shomron news agency publicized an internal anti-settler IDF directive, a large police force raided its offices, confiscated computers, and made two arrests.

An unusually large force of 100 policemen arrived in Yitzhar, north of Tapuach in Samaria, and swooped down on the offices of HaKol HaYehudi (the Jewish Voice). Officials in Yitzhar say the raid is most certainly linked directly to the agency's publication of an IDF Division Head's memo against soldiers who live in Judea and Samaria (Yesha).

[...]

Yitzhar: Freedom of Expression Under Attack
The Jewish Voice issued this statement in response to today's police action: "Freedom of expression has once again been trampled by the Shabak (Israel Security Agency) and Shai Nitzan. Their use of secret information against the media that acts openly shows who is in the right."

The agency stated that Shai Nitzan's behavior is "problematic, as shown by the document publicized yesterday. Reports like yesterday's frighten the establishment, which would rather hide its activities from the public."

MK Michael Ben-Ari (National Union) condemned this morning's arrests, saying, "The arrest of those who revealed the document calling for the distancing of Yesha residents in the IDF is a strong blow to our democratic rule. Instead of trying to figure out where they went wrong, they send the police to settle accounts with the Jewish Voice."
I'm afraid this is a very serious case of attacking someone's right to report on what they feel is a concerning matter. The police and army alike owe an apology, and the Knesset would do well to pass a law preventing this kind of galling behavior from occurring.

Oslo: Disagreement between Jewish community and Islamic Council over religious racism report

The mozlems are the instigators of anti-semitism. In this post the rate of "anti-semitism has risen from zero to widespread in a few years." This is all down to the izlamic influx. But the mozlems are complaining saying it is THEY who are discriminated against and that Jews should shut up! What filth!!
 "A recent study mapping out religious racism in Oslo schools, grades 8-10, shows that Jews are harassed much more than other groups. 33.3% of Jewish students said they were harassed more than once a month because of their religion, compared with 9.9% of Buddhists and 5.3% of Muslims. The average was 3.5%.
62% of the students said that students called each other 'Jew' at their school. 51.5% said they heard the word 'Jew' used to describe something negative, 40.9% heard jokes about Jews, 35.2% said they heard negative comments about Jews, and 4.7% said they heard other students say that Jews weren't exterminated during WWII."

2 U.S. F-15 Fighters Intercept Aircraft Near Camp David

2 U.S. F-15 Fighters Intercept Aircraft Near Camp David | Ya Libnan | World News Live from Lebanon: "Two F-15 fighter jets intercepted a small civilian aircraft near the U.S. presidential retreat at Camp David, Maryland, today and escorted the plane out of the area, the North American Aerospace Defense Command said in a statement.

The F-15s intercepted the Beechcraft Bonanza, a single- engine aircraft, about 11 miles from Camp David, at about 3:25 p.m. New York time. The airplane, which was out of radio contact, landed without incident in Hagerstown, Maryland, Norad said.

Norad is a binational U.S. and Canadian command responsible for the air defense of North America.
