OBAMA AND ELENA KAGAN OR PAUL MCCARTHY, I CAN'T TELL WHICH

SAME HAIRDRESSER I GUESS....


THE NYTIMES - LIKE OBAMA - IS BLAMING ISRAEL AND SIDING WITH THE TURKS AND JIHADISTS

INSANITY FROM, THE NYTIMES - AND THE OBAMA LED LEFT (VIA HOT AIR):
The list of recent moves by the Netanyahu government that potentially threaten American interests has grown steadily, many foreign policy experts argue.

The violence that broke out when Israeli commandos stormed aboard a Gaza flotilla last week chilled American relations with a key Muslim ally, Turkey.

The Gaza fight also makes it more difficult for America to rally a coalition that includes Arab and Muslim states against Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
  • (1) THEY SAY IT AS IF THE BLOCKADE WAS A LONE/ROGUE ISRAELI OPERATION - IT IS NOT: IT IS A JOINT OPERATION OF EGYPT AND ISRAEL, WITH ISRAEL RUNNING THE NAVAL PORTION.
  • (2) THEY SAY IT AS IF ISRAEL PROVOKED THE FLOTILLA RAID AND VIOLENCE, BUT ISRAEL DID NOT PROVOKE THE VIOLENCE. ONLY THE IHHH/TURK SHIP WAS VIOLENT; THE OTHER 5 WERE ESCORTED TO ASHODOD WITHOUT VIOLENCE. AND SUBSEQUENTLY THE RACHEL CORRIE WAS ESCORTED TO ASHDOD WITHOUT VIOLENCE.
  • (3) THEY SAY IT AS IF TURKEY WAS A RELIABLE ALLY - WHEN THE IRAQ WAR AND THEIR RECENT OVERTURE TO IRAN PROVE THEY ARE NOT
  • (4) THEY SAY IT AS IF WHAT THE OBAMA LED MUSLIM/ARAB COALITION AGAINST IRAN WAS GONNA DO ANYTHING EFFECTIVE. ALL THEY'RE GONNA DO IS TRY TO PASS A UN RESOLUTION WHICH WON;LT BE EFFECTIVE BECAUSE RUSSIA AND CHINA AND TURKEY WILL OPPOSE ANY ONE WHICH MIGHT BE STRONG ENOUGH TO BE EFFECTIVE.
FOR OBAMA TO SUUPORT TURKEY AND THE IHH AND HAMAS IS UNBEFREEEEEEKINLIEVABLE!

OBAMA MUST BE ANTI-SEMITIC AND JIHADO-PHILIC - NO SURPRISE HERE:

THIS MAKES OBAMA JUST LIKE:
  • HIS DECADES OLD REVEREND JEREMIAH WRIGHT
  • AND HIS DECADES OLD NEIGHBOR AND OCCASSIONAL BABY-SITTER RASHID KHALID
  • AND HIS DECADES OLD FRIEND AND CO-AUTHOR BILL AYERS!
NO DOUBT ABOUT IT: BY AIDING ISLAMIST TURKEY AND THE IHH AND HAMAS, OBAMA AIDING THE ENEMIES OF THE WEST AND PROVES THAT HE IS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO THE FREE WORLD.

THE IMAM BEHIND THE MOSQUE NEAR GROUND ZERO HAS CONNECTIONS WITH FLOTILLA FUNDING

The New York Post has a most disturbing report involving Feisal Abdul Rauf, the imam behind the Cordoba mosque planned near the WTC's former standing, revealing that he's part of a group funding another group that helped organize the flotilla to Gaza (Hat tip: Hot Air):
The imam behind a proposed mosque near Ground Zero is a prominent member of a group that helped sponsor the pro-Palestinian activists who clashed violently with Israeli commandos at sea this week.

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is a key figure in Malaysian-based Perdana Global Peace Organization, according to its Website.

Perdana is the single biggest donor ($366,000) so far to the Free Gaza Movement, a key organizer of the six-ship flotilla that tried to break Israel’s blockade of the Hamas-run Gaza Strip Monday.
Reuters has confirmed that the Free Gaza Movement, whose supporters include William Ayers, that it's biggest donation came from Perdana. I'd say there's a lot more reason now to protest this mosque atrocity that's being built. A man who would help fund barbarians like what Rauf did cannot and should not be viewed as legitimate.

THE NOVEMBER 2010 ELECTION: A BATTLE AS IMPORTANT AS THOSE FOUGHT AT TOURS-POITIERS, VIENNA AND LEPANTO

THE BATTLE OF TOURS-POITIERS - 10 October 732

THE BATTLE VIENNA - 9/11/1532

THE BATTLE OF LEPANTO - 7 October 1571

THE BATTLE OF AMERICA - 11/2/2010:
  • WE CAN DEFEAT THE LEFTIST JIHADIST AXIS BY VOTING GOP AND TAKING BACK CONGRESS.
MAKER NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT: OBAMA IS EITHER A WILLING CRPTO-JIHADO-LEFTIST OR A DUPE AND AN APPEASER:

President Obama refused to side with Israel after the attack and told Prime Minister Netanyahu to go back to Israel out of concern that the Israeli Prime Minister would use the White House as his backdrop while discussing the flotilla ambush.

Reuters reported:

The White House said on Friday Israel’s blockade of the Gaza Strip was unsustainable and urged a Gaza aid vessel sent by pro-Palestinian activists to divert to an Israeli port to reduce the risk of violence.

“We are working urgently with Israel, the Palestinian Authority, and other international partners to develop new procedures for delivering more goods and assistance to Gaza,” said Mike Hammer, spokesman for the White House National Security Council.

The current arrangements are unsustainable and must be changed. For now, we call on all parties to join us in encouraging responsible decisions by all sides to avoid any unnecessary confrontations,” Hammer said in a statement.

OBAMA HAS ANNOUNCED THIS ON THE DAY THE IDF ESCORTED THE "RACHEL CORRIE" TO ASHDOD WITHOUT INCIDENT - PROVING THAT THE BLOCKADE (A JOINT ISRAELI-EGYPT EFFORT!) IS VERY SUSTAINABLE.

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT COMES ON THE HEALS OF:
  1. OBAMA DEPLAYING ANY ACTION AGAINST IRAN - AGAIN DAMMIT; HEPROMISED US A DEADLINE OF JANUARY WHEN HE RAN FUHCRYINOUTTEARS!).
  2. AND OBAMA SIGNING ONTO AN NPT AGREEMENT DEMANDING ISRAEL GIVCE UP ITS NUCLEAR DETERRENT.
(ASIDE: OBAMA DOES ALL THIS IN THE NAME OF PEACE - JUST AS THE NEW TESTAMENT (SO-CALLED) SAID THE ANTI-CHRIST WOULD DO.)

OBAMA IS EITHER PART OF THE JIHADO-LEFTIST AXIS - ALONG WITH TURKEY, IRAN, BRAZIL AND RUSSIA - OR HE IS BEING INTIMIDATED BY TURKEY.

EITHER WAY, HIS CONTINUED PRESIDENCY IS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO THE FREE WORLD.
  • WE CAN BRIDLE HIS ANTI-WESTERN POLICIES BY TAKING BACK CONGRESS THIS NOVEMBER.

PROOF TURKEY IS PART OF THE AXIS OF EVIL: ERDOGAN WANTS TO VISIT GAZA, AND SEND THE TURKISH NAVY TO ACCOMPANY THE NEXT FLOTILLA

Ynet

The newspaper said that “as part of the open conflict between Turkey and Israel following the massacre against the ‘freedom sail’ to Gaza and the protest sparked in the world, Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan is considering going to Gaza himself in order to break the blockade imposed on the Strip.”…

According to the report, Erdogan told the American administration he was planning to ask his navy to escort another aid flotilla,
IT'S NO ACCIDENT THIS COMES RIGHT AFTER TURKEY CAME TO IRAN'S RESCUE.

TURKEY IS HELPING HAMAS AND HIZBALLAH AND IRAN.

BY HELPING IRAN, TURKEY IS UNDERMINING THE EU, NATO AND ISRAEL AND THE USA.

IT'S NO COINCIDENCE THAT ERDOGAN'S TURKEY DENIED THE USA USE OF TURKEY DURING THE IRAQ WEAR INVASION.

NOW, BY THREATENING TO SEND THE TURKISH NAVY TO ACCOMPANY THE NEXT FLOTILLA, ERDOGAN IS THREATENING ISRAEL WITH NOT ONLY A WAR WITH TURKEY, BUT ONE WITH NATO IF TURKISH NAVY ENGAGES THE IDF AND THEN INVOKES NATO'S ARTICLE 5.

(I BELIEVE THIS HAS BEEN TURKLEY'S AND IRAN'S STRATEGY FROM THE START AND HAVE POSTED THIS FOR WEEKS.)

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO CONCLUDE THAT TURKEY UNDER ERDOGAN IS PART OF THE JIHADIST AXIS; THEREFORE:
  • TURKEY SHOULD BE EXPELLED FROM NATO AT ONCE.
  • KEEPING THEM IN NATO MEANS OUR ENEMIES ARE PRIVY TO OUR DEFENSES.
  • IT'S INSANE TO KEEP TURKEY IN NATO.
  • AND DANGEROUS.
  • IT MAKES US LESS SAFE.

GAZA AND ISRAEL: THE TRUTH IS THERE FOR ALL TO SEE - IF YOU OPEN YOUR EYES





LEFTISTS AND JIHADISTS SAY GAZA ISN'T FREE BECAUSE OF THE ISRAELI BLOCKADE.
BUT THE BLOCKADE IS A JOINT OPERATION OF EGYPT AND ISRAEL, AND IT ONLY KEEPS OUT WEAPONRY.

ALL FOOD AND HUMANITARIAN AID GETS INTO GAZA.




IF GAZANS AREN'T FREE IT'S BECAUSE THEY LIVE UNDER JIHADO-FASCISM.

THE BIGGEST INDUSTRY IN GAZA IS EXTORTION: THEY THREATEN GLOBAL VIOLENCE AND GENOCIDE AGAINST ISRAEL AND IN RETURN THEY GET BILLIONS IN AID.

THE JIHADO-LEFTIST AXIS HAS TRIED TO SNEAK WEAPONS INTO GAZA FOR THREE YEARS.

THE BLOCKADE STOPS THEM - AND THUS SAVES ISRAEL AND EGYPT FROM INCREASINGLY VIOLENT JIHADO-TERROR.

LAST WEEK'S ATTEMPT WITH 6 SHIPS INCLUDED ONE FILLED WITH MORE THAN JUST LEFTISTS AND DUPES; IT HAD MANY VIOLENT JIHADISTS, TOO - AND IT WAS SPONSORED BY THE AVOWEDLY ISLAMIST GOVERNMENT OF TURKEY.






MORE TRUTH ABOUT THE AKP/IHH/HAMAS/AL QAEDA SHIP HERE.

YESTERDAY, ANOTHER JIHADO-LEFTIST SHIP ATTEMPTED TO BREAK THE BLOCKADE; THEY NAMED IT "THE RACHEL CORRIE" - AFTER A LEFTIST WHO SUPPORTED THE ARAB/ISLAMIC GENOCIDE AGAINST ISRAEL - RACHEL CORRIE.


THE LEFTIST-JIHADIST AXIS LIKES TO PROMOTE HER AS A MARTYR FOR PEACE AND JUSTICE. A SWEETIE AND A SAINT:

BUT THIS IS WHO SHE REALLY WAS:

THE REAL RACHEL CORRIE AND "THE RACHEL CORRIE" WERE NOT REALLY ABOUT JUSTICE OR FREEDOM OR PEACE.

THEY WERE REALLY ALL ABOUT TRYING TO DESTROY ISRAEL.

WELL, THE RACHEL CORRIE SHIP WAS SEIZED WITHOUT VIOLENCE.

OBAMA AND HILLARY CLINTON AND ERDOGAN AND ALL THE SCUM IN THE JIHADO-LEFTIST AXIS ARE WONG: THE BLOCKADE WORKS.

ISRAEL WILL PREVAIL.

THE TRUTH WILL PREVAIL.

THE JIHADO-LEFTIST AXIS WILL BE DEFEATED.

AND THAT INCLUDES OBAMA.

IMAGINE THERE'S NO LEFTISTS - IT ISN'T HARD TO DO...

Imagine - by John Lennon is almost an international anthem for the left - IT PUSHES ALL THEIR BUTTONS:

ATHEISM:
Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
TRANS-NATIONALISM:
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
MARXIST COMMUNISM AND POSTMODERNIST ANTI-CONSUMERISM:
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
IT MAKES ME REALIZE: Leftism and postmodernism are based on an appeal to IMAGINATION, not reason, not reality.

Imagination is what shapes their rhetoric. It's how they campaign and debate.

Obama and his campaign and rhetoric and governing style epitomize the left's appeal to imagination and not reason.

In all of human history, appeasement has never worked - neither has redistribution or a command economy - but that hasn't stopped leftists and Obama from IMAGINING it will work this time.

This is simply not rational. EINSTEIN (attributed):
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Leftists imagine that this next time, it will be different.

The utopian urge is an urge for an IMAGINARY world that's IMPOSSIBLE to actually create.

When leftists like Obama orate, they essentially make a direct appeal to the listeners IMAGINATION: "Imagine a world at peace, fed, healthy, with brotherhood for all. We are for that. Our policies will deliver that. Conservatives oppose that."

It's insane. Conservatives believe that humans and human society are IMPERFECTABLE. That we each deserve our God-given universal and unalienable rights. And that the best "most fairest" way of achieving that is democracy and the free market. In other words, democracy and the free market suck; they're just the best compared to everything else.

Leftists IMAGINE otherwise.

All leftists are DREAMERS who haven't awakened - who choose to remain in an adolescent dreamworld. A teen dreamworld in which the permissive nanny gives you an allowance and cleans up after you and nurses you no matter how you misbehave. And you don't have to ever grow up.

The leftist state - the nannystate - is a dream.

And when they get power THEIR dream becomes the world's NIGHTMARE.



HERE'S A NEW AND IMPROVED VERSION:
Imagine there's no leftism
It's easy if you try
No commies among us
Only truth and no BIG LIE

Imagine there's no Islam
It isn't hard to do
No hate for jihadis to kill or die for
And no terror too

Imagine no taxes
I wonder if you can
No need for government programs
And no 5 year plan.

You may say I'm a teabagger

Or a zionist racist corprate neocon bitch
I hope someday you'll grow up
And the world will be free and rich.

PROOF THAT OBAMA IS WRONG AND THE GAZA BLOCKADE IS SUSTAINABLE

THE IDF SEIZED ANOTHER "AID" SHIP - PEACEFULLY.
  • THIS CAN GO ON IN PERPETUITY - IF THE USA AND THE FREE WORLD DON'T ATTACK ISRAEL FOR DEFENDING ITSELF.
  • IF YOU WANT ISRAEL TO BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO DEFEND ITSELF, THEN VOTE GOP THIS NOVEMBER.

MORE PROOF OBAMA'S PERSONALITY WAS FORMED IN A MADRASSA


HIS SIGNATURE....



EMULATES ARABIC CALLIGRAPHY...



OBAMA SPENT THE FORMATIVE YEARS IN INDONESIA LIVING AS A MUSLIM.

HIS STEP-FATHER, HOME, AND SCHOOLING: MUSLIM.

IT'S DEEP IN HIS HEART.

UPDATE: I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE:
Obama's signature definately shows he was Arabic taught.

Not knowing the copybook form for Arabic I am somewhat at a disadvantage but again there is threading which slurs the forms.

Any threading is an indication of not wanting to be pinned down, to escape responsibility when things go wrong, to hide the personal self, and of course speed of thought and action.

He could be very creative in his dealings with others.
JEREMIAH WRIGHT DID NOT BAPTIZE OBAMA INTO A CHRISTIAN, BUT INTO AN AFRICAN-AMERICAN.

OBAMA'S LEFTISM AND HIS ISLAMOPHILIA MAKE HIM AN ENEMY OF THE FREE WORLD.

WE CAN BRIDLE HIM THIS NOVEMBER: VOTE GOP.

TURKEY DECLARES ALLEGIANCE TO AXIS OF EVIL

BUSH DOCTRINE: YOU ARE EITHER WITH US OR AGAINST US.

ERDOGAN: HAMAS NOT A TERROR ORGANISATION.

UN/USA: HAMAS IS A TERROR ORGANISATION.

ERGO: TURKEY IS THE ENEMY.

FREE THE KURDS!

CHEFS TO REFORM SCHOOL LUNCHES

Are you kidding me? School lunches need chefs?

From the Washington Post:
More than 500 chefs gathered at the White House today to join Michelle Obama's newest effort to fight childhood obesity, Chefs Move To Schools.

The chefs, including national stars such as Rachael Ray, Tom Colicchio and Cat Cora, and an army of unknowns who work in restaurants, food banks and culinary schools, hailed from 37 states. Each has accepted a White House mission to adopt a school in his or her community and work with parents, teachers and cafeteria workers to educate children about food and nutrition. That might include developing healthful recipes for cafeterias, offering cooking lessons or helping a school to plant a garden.

"You are all at the heart of this initiative because if anyone understands nutrition and food, it's the folks sitting here in their whites today," Obama said, referring to the traditional chef uniform. "You know more about food than almost anyone – other than the grandmas – and you've got the visibility and the enthusiasm to match that knowledge."

[...]

"You'd never think of implementing a salad bar as guerrilla warfare. But that's what it is. Kid by kid. School by school," said [New York Public Schools Executive Chef Jorge] Collazo.

...Chefs said they were undeterred by the hard work ahead....
Whatever happened to "Too many cooks spoil the broth"?

From another WaPo puff piece on the same topic:
..."What we are feeding our children is an outrage. We should be marching with picket signs and pitchforks in revolution," said Cathal Armstrong of Restaurant Eve in Alexandria....

[...]

In the months since [the January 2010] meeting, the chefs have taken the first steps to make real the lofty goals of Michelle Obama's Let's Move! initiative, which aims to end childhood obesity within a generation. [Chefs] Gray and Mendelsohn began teaching cooking classes to hundreds of students and parents...
What? They can't open a cookbook on their own? Sheesh!

From cradle to grave is upon us!

Continuing now with an excerpt from the WaPo article:
At the very least, the combination of chefs and reality-style makeovers is smart marketing by the White House. But if the nearly 1,000 chefs who have signed on to the program catch the same fever as their Washington counterparts, the hope is that the program could spark a real "Food Revolution," Jamie Oliver-style. A thousand forks of light, if you will.
"A thousand forks of light"? Consciously or unconsciously trying to make a connection to this 1988 speech given by George H.W. Bush, I guess.

OBAMA NEVER SMILES MORE BROADLY THEN WHEN HE EMBRACES AN ANTISEMITE


THE LAST ONE IS OBAMA AND CODE PINK FOUNDER
AND GAZA FLOTILLA ORGANIZER JODIE EVANS

IT'S TIME WE OPENLY SUPPORTED THE KURDS

UNLIKE THE SO-CALLED PALESTINIANS (WHO ARE JUST YOUR AVERAGE ARAB-MONGREL), THE KURDS HAVE THEIR OWN LANGUAGE, HISTORY AND CULTURE.

IT'S TIME THE KURDS HAD THEIR OWN COUNTRY.

WE SHOULD SUPPORT THEIR RESISTANCE AGAINST THEIR TURKISH OVERLORDS.

FREE KURDISTAN!

AND THEY CAN TAKE AS MUCH OF TURKEY AS THEY LIKE.

WEEKEND FUNNY

I love baseball! I come by that love of baseball naturally, I suppose. My father, born in 1911 and denizen of sandlot baseball, was actually offered a job as pitcher for the New York Yankees by a pro-ball scout way back when. Dad turned down the offer as he was such a homebody and the part-time caregiver for his own father.

Anyway, when I saw the video below over at Right Truth, I knew that I just had to post it:


For the record, the original classic poem "Casey at the Bat" by Ernest Lawrence Thayer:
The Outlook wasn't brilliant for the Mudville nine that day:
The score stood four to two, with but one inning more to play.
And then when Cooney died at first, and Barrows did the same,
A sickly silence fell upon the patrons of the game.

A straggling few got up to go in deep despair. The rest
Clung to that hope which springs eternal in the human breast;
They thought, if only Casey could get but a whack at that -
We'd put up even money, now, with Casey at the bat.

But Flynn preceded Casey, as did also Jimmy Blake,
And the former was a lulu and the latter was a cake;
So upon that stricken multitude grim melancholy sat,
For there seemed but little chance of Casey's getting to the bat.

But Flynn let drive a single, to the wonderment of all,
And Blake, the much despis-ed, tore the cover off the ball;
And when the dust had lifted, and the men saw what had occurred,
There was Jimmy safe at second and Flynn a-hugging third.

Then from 5,000 throats and more there rose a lusty yell;
It rumbled through the valley, it rattled in the dell;
It knocked upon the mountain and recoiled upon the flat,
For Casey, mighty Casey, was advancing to the bat.

There was ease in Casey's manner as he stepped into his place;
There was pride in Casey's bearing and a smile on Casey's face.
And when, responding to the cheers, he lightly doffed his hat,
No stranger in the crowd could doubt 'twas Casey at the bat.

Ten thousand eyes were on him as he rubbed his hands with dirt;
Five thousand tongues applauded when he wiped them on his shirt.
Then while the writhing pitcher ground the ball into his hip,
Defiance gleamed in Casey's eye, a sneer curled Casey's lip.

And now the leather-covered sphere came hurtling through the air,
And Casey stood a-watching it in haughty grandeur there.
Close by the sturdy batsman the ball unheeded sped-
"That ain't my style," said Casey. "Strike one," the umpire said.

From the benches, black with people, there went up a muffled roar,
Like the beating of the storm-waves on a stern and distant shore.
"Kill him! Kill the umpire!" shouted someone on the stand;
And its likely they'd a-killed him had not Casey raised his hand.

With a smile of Christian charity great Casey's visage shone;
He stilled the rising tumult; he bade the game go on;
He signaled to the pitcher, and once more the spheroid flew;
But Casey still ignored it, and the umpire said, "Strike two."

"Fraud!" cried the maddened thousands, and echo answered fraud;
But one scornful look from Casey and the audience was awed.
They saw his face grow stern and cold, they saw his muscles strain,
And they knew that Casey wouldn't let that ball go by again.

The sneer is gone from Casey's lip, his teeth are clenched in hate;
He pounds with cruel violence his bat upon the plate.
And now the pitcher holds the ball, and now he lets it go,
And now the air is shattered by the force of Casey's blow.

Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright;
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in Mudville - mighty Casey has struck out.

CAN WE GET THE IDF TO SET UP A BLOCKADE ON OUR MEXICAN BORDER?

Just asking...

DOUBLE MURDER IN BELGIAN COURT, AND THE SUSPECT IS IRANIAN

A gunman shot dead a judge and a clerk in a Belgian courtroom, and has luckily been captured. He's of Iranian background:
BRUSSELS (AFP) – Belgian police have arrested a suspect after a man pulled a gun during a Brussels court hearing and shot dead a woman judge and court clerk before fleeing, the public prosecutor's office said Friday.

"A suspect has been questioned and identified," Jean-Jacques Meilleur, spokesman for the Brussels public prosecutor, told AFP after Thursday's double murder.

A judicial source said that the suspect was a 47-year-old Iranian man who had been identified by witnesses of the courtroom drama that shook Belgium. He reportedly said he had been motivated by revenge.

The prosecutor's office would hold a press conference at 0900 GMT.

Police approached the man in a Brussels park on Thursday evening in order to check his identity, but he pulled out a gun and began shooting in the air, the source said.

The man was wounded by police, arrested, and later identified as a suspect in the killings.

On Thursday morning a man, who had been present throughout the hearing, "pulled out a firearm, a revolver, and fired at the judge and her clerk, killing both," said Jean-Jacques Meilleur, spokesman for the Brussels public prosecutor.

The tribunal had been hearing a family and neighbour dispute case when the shooting happened. The tribunal is close to the imposing Palace of Justice in the heart of the Belgian capital.

The assailant "was briefly pursued by one of the lawyers present but he managed to flee on foot down one of the roads in the area," Meilleur added. A major search was launched for the gunman.

The victims were 60-year-old magistrate Isabelle Brandon and her court clerk Andre Bellemans.

A minute's silence was observed by judges and lawyers in the Palace of Justice later in honour of their deceased colleagues, with some members of the judiciary visibly shocked at the events.

Security in judicial buildings and prisons in Belgium has long been a source of concern, with many escapes in recent years.

Last August, masked men helped three suspects escape the Palace of Justice, taking prison guards hostage in the process.

Around the same time there was a spectacular escape from a prison in the north with the use of a hijacked helicopter.

Just days ahead of snap legislative elections on June 13, the justice minister said he would stop campaigning and called for a debate on security, while ruling out placing security cameras in all courtrooms.
The ending line gives reason to wonder if Belgium doesn't have any proper security for their courtrooms, and I'm not just talking about camera tech. What about the metal detectors and guards who actually search people before entering?

This article also obscures the problems with jihadism in Belgium, which likely played a role in this tragic case, as well as the several other crimes hinted at here. Sadly, it shouldn't surprise that the AFP would refuse to get in deeper.

ANOTHER GOOD GOP OMEN: JUPITER HIT BY METEOR

AN AMATEUR SAW IT STRIKE - WITH A FLASH!

THE LAST TIME A MAJOR STRIKE WAS WITNESSED?

1994.

HMMM...

GAZAN "PEACE ACTIVISTS" RAID AND CLOSE NGO'S

JPOST:
Hamas’s security forces on Monday and Tuesday raided the offices of several non-governmental organizations in the Gaza Strip and confiscated equipment and furniture, drawing sharp condemnations from human rights groups.

The sources said the raids were carried out by agents belonging to Hamas’s Internal Security apparatus without court permission.

Hamas spokesmen in the Gaza Strip on Thursday refused to comment on the raids.

After conducting a thorough search of the offices of the organizations, the Hamas security agents confiscated files, documents, computers, fax machines and other equipment.

The agents also informed the managers and workers of the organizations of the Hamas government’s decision to close them down indefinitely.

The Gaza-based Al-Mezan Center for Human Rights expressed outrage over the raids and called on the Hamas government to open an investigation.

...
The UN’s special coordinator for the Middle East peace process, Robert Serry, expressed deep concern over the raids and closure of the NGO offices.

“This targeting of NGOs, including UN partner organizations, is unacceptable, violating accepted norms of a free society and harming the Palestinian people,” he said. “The de facto [Hamas] authorities must cease such repressive steps and allow the re-opening of these civil society institutions without delay.”
NOBODY WHO ACCEPTS THE REALITY THAT HAMAS IS A TERRORIST GROUP IS SURPRISED BY THESE ACTIONS.

THE ONLY FOLKS WHO ARE SURPRISED ARE THE DUPES, DHIMMIS AND LEFTISTS WHO THINK THEY CAN WORK WITH THE JIHADISTS BECAUSE THEIR BOTH ANTI-WEST.

IT'S NO MERE COINCIDENCE THAT THESE RAIDS OCCURRED TODAY - AND THAT MORE KASSAMS HAVE BEEN LAUNCHED FROM GAZA INTO ISRAEL:

TURKEY AND THE IHH AND HAMAS ARE FEELING EMBOLDENED BECAUSE IT SEEMS RIGHT NOW THAT THE FLOTILLAGANDA WORKED AND THAT ISRAEL HAS TAKEN THE BRUNT OF THE BAD PR.

APPEASEMENT ALWAYS ONLY ENCOURAGES MORE BAD BEHAVIOR.

THE WEST'S WEAK RESPONSE TO THE FLOTILLA RAID EMBOLDENS THE JIHADIST AND IRAN AND NORTH KOREA.

AND THE KGB.

BETTER BRACE YOURSELVES.

THE WORST IS YET TO COME...

SURPRISE! SURPRISE: MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD BACKS EL BARADEI - IRAN'S IAEA ENABLER - TO CHALLENGE MUBARAK

BBC:
Muslim Brotherhood says it will back ElBaradei campaign

Egypt's biggest opposition group has said it will back the former UN atomic watchdog chief Mohamed ElBaradei's political change campaign, reports say.

The Muslim Brotherhood failed to win any seats in elections to the upper legislative house on Wednesday.

It alleged the vote for the Shura Council had been rigged.

Mr ElBaradei has launched a campaign for political change in Egypt, but has not officially declared he will contest elections next year.

The Muslim Brotherhood said it would help Mr ElBaradei collect signatures in his efforts to gather a million names to demand changes to the constitution and emergency laws, news agency Reuters said.

IT TOOK VIOLENCE - AND APPEASEMENT FROM LIBERAL JIMMY CARTER - FOR THE JIHAD TO TAKEOVER THE SHAH'S IRAN IN 1979.

IN TURKEY, THE AKP DID IT BY STEALTH AT ELECTIONS AND IN JUDICIAL AND MILITARY PURGES OVER 8 YEARS.

IT LOOKS LIKE THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD WILL TRY THE AKP ROUTE... WITH THE HELP OF EL BARADEI, THE FELLA WHO RAN THE IAEA AND LET NORTH KOREA AND IRAN AND LIBYA AND SYRIA ( THE OLD AXIS OF EVIL! THE NEW ONE INCLUDES TURKEY!) GET AWAY WITH "MURDER".

THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD KNOWS THIS MAN WELL.

AND ANYONE WHO CONTINUES TO THINK EL BARADEI IS PRO-WEST OUGHT TO HAVE HIS HEAD EXAMINED.


STAY TUNED...

NOW ERDOGAN MAKES A FASCINATING FREUDIAN SLIP...

ERDOGAN'S FM MADE A REVEALING FREUDIAN SLIP EARLIER IN THE WEEK: HE CALLED THE FLOTILLA RAID "TURKEY'S 9/11".

WE BELIEVE THIS REVEALS THAT TURKEY WANTS TO DO WHAT THE USA DID AFTER 9/11: INVOKE NATO ARTICLE 5, REQUIRING THAT NATO ACT TO DEFEND TURKEY AGAINST ISRAEL.

NOW ERDOGAN HAS MADE A FREUDIAN SLIP.

ERDOGAN SAID THAT "ISRAEL IS ABOUT TO LOSE ITS BEST ALLY ON THE MIDDLE EAST." MEANING TURKEY.

ONLY UP UNTIL HE SAID THAT HE HAD LONG ARGUED THAT TURKEY BELONGS IN THE EU AND IS PART OF EUROPE!

WHICH IS IT?

THE MORE RECENT STATEMENT REVEALS WHAT ERDOGAN ACTUALLY BELIEVES: HE SEES ISLAMIST TURKEY AS PART OF THE MIDDLE EAT, NOT EUROPE.

AND UNDER THE AKP TURKEY OS MORE ALIGNED WITH IRAN AN AL QAEDA THAN THE USA AND NATO.

WE SHOULD TREAT THEM ACCORDINGLY.

AND IF OBAMA WON'T, THE WE SHOULD VOTE GOP THIS NOVEMBER!

ANOTHER COUPLA BIGGIES FINALLY SEE WHAT I SAW IN JANUARY: TURKEY IS NO LONGER AN ALLY OF THE WEST

WE SAID IT BEFORE ANYONE ELSE - IN JANUARY, AND MANY TIMES SINCE.

NOW OTHERS ARE SEEING THE LIGHT -
UPDATE: VDH IS SAYING IT AGAIN TODAY - TWO DAYS IN A ROW:
Turkish ambitions are growing antithetical to our own.
HE ALSO QUESTIONS - AGAIN - WHY TURKEY SHOULD REMAIN IN NATO.


REGULAR READERS KNOW THAT I SAID IT MONTHS AGO WHEN NO ONE ELSE WAS SAYING IT. NOBODY ANYWHERE.

MY ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY WAS WAY AHEAD OF ALL THOSE FAMOUS PUNDITS.

ALL OF THEM.


THIS DOESN'T SURPRISE ME:

THE FLOTILLA WAS AN ALINSKY OPERATION FROM DAY ONE - IT WAS EVEN ORGANIZED WITH HELP FROM AYERS AND CODE PINK.

SO I THINK OBAMA WAS IN THE LOOP FROM THE START.
  • THIS MAKES TURKEY PART OF THE ENEMY CAMP, NO LONGER OUR ALLY.
  • WE SHOULD TREAT THEM THAT WAY.
AND IF OBAMA IS APPEASING TURKEY THEN HE IS IN EFFECT APPEASING AL QAEDA.

WE CAN DEFEAT TURKEY AND OBAMA AND THE ALINSKY LEFT THIS NOVEMBER: VOTE GOP.

UPDATE: MORE PROOF TURKEY IS PART OF THE AXIS OF EVIL HERE.

NO SURPRISE HERE: TRAITOROUS OBAMA JOINS ANTI-ISRAEL/ANTI-BLOCKADE CHORUS

OBAMA HATES ISRAEL.

JEWS WHO SUPPORT OBAMA ARE JUDENRAT.

MORE PROOF:
New Israeli Tack Needed on Gaza, U.S. Officials Say

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration considers Israel’s blockade of Gaza to be untenable and plans to press for another approach to ensure Israel’s security while allowing more supplies into the impoverished Palestinian area, senior American officials said Wednesday.

The officials say that Israel’s deadly attack on a flotilla trying to break the siege and the resulting international condemnation create a new opportunity to push for increased engagement with the Palestinian Authority and a less harsh policy toward Gaza.

“There is no question that we need a new approach to Gaza,” said one official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the policy shift is still in the early stages. He was reflecting a broadly held view in the upper reaches of the administration.

Israel would insist that any approach take into account three factors: Israel’s security; the need to prevent any benefit to Hamas, the Islamist rulers of Gaza; and the four-year-old captivity of an Israeli soldier held by Hamas, Staff Sgt. Gilad Shalit.

Since the botched raid that killed nine activists on Monday, the Israeli government has said that the blockade was necessary to protect Israel against the infiltration into Gaza of weapons and fighters sponsored by Iran.

THE RAID WASN'T BOTCHED.

THE IDF SUCCEEDED IN SEIZING ALL THE SHIPS.

ONE SHIP HAD INTENDED VIOLENCE TO GET DAMAGING PROPAGANDA AGAINST ISRAEL - AND OBAMA AND THE MSM ARE DOING THEIR PART TO MAKE SURE THIS IS THE CASE.

IF OBAMA LIKED ISRAEL AND HATED THE JIHADIST ENEMY AND REALLY WANT GLOBAL JIHAD DEFEATED, THEN HE WOULD BE PUTTING PRESSURE ON TURKEY AND THEIR ALLIANCE WITH IRAN AND THE IHH AND THRU THE IHH AL QAEDA.

BY FAILING TO PRESSURE TURKEY OBAMA IS IN EFFECT AIDING THE ENEMY. NOT JUST HAMAS, BUT IRAN AND AL QAEDA.

OBAMA IS GUILTY OF TREASON AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS ALL TRAITORS ARE.

UPDATE: BY BLAMING ISRAEL THE MSM IS CARRYING WATER FOR THE GLOBAL JIHAD. THIS IS TRAITOROUS, TOO.

QUESTION: WILL PRESIDENT BIDEN RUN FOR RE-ELECTION IN 2012?

OR WILL HE CEDE THE NOMINATION TO VICE PRESIDENT HILLARY?

JUST ASKING.

WITH A STROKE OF THE PEN, OBAMA JUST RASIED THE DEBT AGAIN

OBAMA DECIDED OUR TAX DOLLARS SHOULD PAY FOR THE HEALTH BENEFITS FOR HOMOSEXUAL PARTNERS.

SINCE THE FED GOV PAYS 75% OF THE COSTS OF THE BENEFITS THAT MEANS WE ARE ON THE HOOK FOR HIS LARGESS WITH GAYS AND GOVERNMENT UNIONS.

THAT'S HOW IT WORKS:
  • POLITICIANS USE OUR MONEY TO PAYOFF THEIR FACTIONS AND FRIENDS.
  • OBAMA IS NO DIFFERENT THAN ALL THE OTHER SLEAZEBALLS IN HIS PARTY.
IT'S JUST HOW THEY PLAY IT IN CHICAGO.

IT'S DISGUSTING.

WE CAN STOP IT THIS NOVEMBER: VOTE GOP.

Churchill memorabilia sets a record at auction

BBC:

One of the largest collections of Sir Winston Churchill memorabilia, including an unsmoked cigar, has sold for nearly £600,000 at auction.

The items were sold by US publishing magnate, Steve Forbes, who amassed them over three decades.

... Forbes who gathered the collection, is chief executive of Forbes Inc and the grandson of Forbes magazine founder BC Forbes.

He said he was parting with the collection because his family did not share his passion for it.

SADLY - FOR THE FREE WORLD - IT SEEMS THE PASSION FOR CHURCHILL AND RECOGNITION OF HIS ENORMOUS CONTRIBUTIONS TO WESTERN CIVILIZATION IS BEING FORGOTTEN AND DELIBERATELY BLOTTED OUT BY THE POSTMODERN ANTI-WEST MULTI-CULTI LEFT.

SIGH.

WHICH LASTED LONGER: BJ CLINTON'S "ENCOUNTER" WITH MONICA OR HIS CHAT WITH SESTAK?

HIS CHAT WITH SESTAK LASTED 30-60 SECONDS, ACCORDING TO SESTAK.

  • (SPOKESMEN FOR BJ CLINTON SAY IT LASTED LONGER AND WAS GOOD FOR HIM.)

MONICA! OH MONICA: PLEASE TELL US:

  • DID BJ CLINTION LAST LONGER THAN A MINUTE WITH YOU?

IS TURKEY ABOUT TO SCREW US IN AFGHANISTAN, TOO?

JP/AP:
The UN Security Council will visit Afghanistan later this month to evaluate the current situation on the ground, the council president announced Wednesday.

... the exact focus of the trip was still being discussed, but "the main proposal will be to have an evaluation of the current situation in political, economic, social terms and also on security matters."

... Last year, the council also authorized the mission to strengthen and expand its presence throughout the country to promote good governance and the rule of law.

... UN diplomats indicated it would likely begin around June 19. The mission will be led by Turkey's UN Ambassador Ertugrul Apakan, whose country has primary responsibility for Afghan matters in the Security Council.

I PREDICT THAT THE TURKISH ISLAMISTS WILL CALL FOR POWER-SHARING WITH THE TALIBAN AND AN END TO US MILITARY INTERVENTION.

UNREAL: HOLLWAY MURDER SUSPECT SOUGHT FOR SIMILAR MURDER LAST WEEKEND IN PERU!

UNREAL:
A young Dutchman previously arrested in the 2005 disappearance of Alabama teen Natalee Holloway is the prime suspect in the weekend murder of a Peruvian woman, police said Wednesday.

Joran van der Sloot is being sought for Sunday's killing of 21-year-old Stephany Flores in a Lima hotel, police chief Gen. Cesar Guardia told a news conference.

He said the suspect crossed into Chile the next day by bus.


The Dutch government said Interpol has issued an international arrest warrant for van der Sloot.
This woman in Peru would be alive if they'd have arrested and convicted this disgusting slime ball.

TURKEY DOESN'T BELONG IN NATO: THE ASTUTE BLOGGERS SCOOPS VICTOR DAVIS HANSON BY MONTHS

VDH TODAY:
At the present rate, Turkey has about as much business in NATO as Greece does in the EU.

... The problem with both the EU and NATO is that, while there is always much gala celebration about who gets in and under what particular conditions, there is almost no attention given to the circumstances under which a member gets out of either organization.
WE HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS SINCE JANUARY. AND HERE IN JANUARY, AGAIN.

AND MANY TIMES SINCE.


TURKEY UNDER THE ISLAMIST AKP IS CLOSER TO IRAN AN SYRIA AND RUSSIA THAN NATO AND THE USA.

THEY SCREWED US AND THE WEST DURING THE IRAQ WAR; THEY ARE SCREWING US AGAIN.

HMMM: ANOTHER ROCKER CANCELS ANOTHER TOUR IN EUROPE...

THIS TIME JOHN MAYER CANCELS.

THEY SAY DUE TO "ILLNESS", BUT I THINK IT'S TERROR FEARS - AND POSTED THIS LAST MONTH WHEN OTHER CONCERT TOURS SUDDENLY CANCELED.

IT MAKES THEM BOTH LOOK BAD.

GOOD!

GAZA HAS JUST AS MUCH FOOD AS THE UPPER WEST SIDE

EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT: THEY ARE NOT SUFFERING DUE TO THE BLOCKADE.

THE SUPPOSED SUFFERING IN GAZA IS PORE PROPAGANDA OF THE ISLAMISTS AND THEIR COMRADES ON THE LEFT, A LIE - LIKE THE AL DURA AFFAIR AND JENINGRAD.

A BIG FECKING LIE.

WILL THE BLAGO TRIAL BRING DOWN RAHM AND JARRETT?

THEY'VE BEEN SUBPOENAED.

THEY WILL TESTIFY UNDER OATH.

THEY WILL LIE.

WILL THEY MEET THE SAME FATE AS SCOOTER LIBBY?

THEY SHOULD.

LEFTISTS STILL KILLING PEOPLE IN HAITI

LEFTISTS'D RATHER THE HAITIANS DIED THAN GET FOOD AID FROM AGRIBUSINESS.

VITAL QUESTIONS ARE STILL NEEDED

The violence the IHH, the Turkish-based terrorist gang on board the Marmara committed, could've ended much worse. Nevertheless, Melanie Phillips has raised a good question or two that requires some consideration:
As I have already noted, the commanders of this operation – including Defence Minister Ehud Barak – clearly believed the flotilla was merely full of anarchists, leftists and other useful idiots. How can it possibly have happened that they didn’t know the Turkish terrorist IHH were involved? And if they did, how can they have made such a dreadful error of military judgment?
Absolutely correct. Even Barak may have a lot to answer to for potentially jeopardizing a lot of soldiers' lives. The commanders also owe an apology to their platoons for screwing up at their end. And we cannot allow a hostile foreign media to get in the way of dealing with barbarians.

Turkey's growing ties with Iran are also something to ponder:
...Turkey agreed to take 1200 grams of Iran’s ‘surplus’ uranium for enrichment – thus providing the fig leaf for Iran’s genocide bomb. The IHH are Turkish terrorists linked to al Qaeda. Turkey is now threatening to up the ante by providing a Turkish naval escort for the next Gaza flotilla. Go figure.
First, I hope the military is going to be ready to deal with any further terrorist flotillas and to sink their boats if they turn up again. Second, this is a very serious problem regarding Turkey's deals with Iran, because what if Turkey too has nuclear sites in preparation, and could pose an equal threat by launching missiles at Israel and other decent countries.

AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA: IT'S TIME YOU EARNED YOUR PEACE PRIZE!

DEAR PRESIDENT OBAMA;

THE TURKISH NAVY WILL BE WITH THE NEXT FLOTILLA.

WHEN ISRAEL ATTACKS THE FLOTILLA BIG WAR WILL BREAK OUT AND TURKEY WILL INVOKE NATO ARTICLE 5.

THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO PREVENT THIS: GETTING TURKEY TO BACK DOWN.

ISRAEL WILL NO MORE BACKDOWN ON THIS BLOCKADE THAN TURKEY SURRENDER TO THE KURDS OR SOUTH KOREA TO NORTH KOREA.

MR. OBAMA: IT'S TIME YOU EARNED YOUR PEACE PRIZE AND USED YOU SUPPOSED POPULARITY IN THE MUSLIM WORLD.

AFTER YOUR DONE WITH TURKEY, THEN GET IRAN TO BACK DOWN AND NORTH KOREA, TOO.

OR STFU AND KEEP OUT OF THE WAY OF PEOPLE WHO WILL KEEP THE PEACE.

SINCERELY,

RELIAPUNDIT

TURKISH FM MAKES A REVEALING FREUDIAN SLIP: CALLS FLOTILLA RAID "TURKEY'S 9/11"

TURKEY'S FM CALLED THE FLOTILLA RAID "TURKEY'S 9/11".

FORGET THE RIDICULOUS HYPERBOLE.

WHAT'S TELLING ABOUT THIS IS HOW IT RELATES TO WHAT I'VE SAID FOR WEEKS IS TURKEY'S STRATEGY AND THEIR MOTIVATION FOR TAKING PART IN FLOTILLA.
  • AFTER 9/11 THE USA INVOKED NATO'S ARTICLE 5 - FORCING NATO TO PARTICIPATE IN THE AFGHAN WAR, WHERE THEY ARE FIGHTING THE ENEMY TO THIS DAY.
  • BY COMPARING THE FLOTILLA RAID TO 9/11 THE TURKISH FM, HAS REVEALED THAT TURKEY INTENDS ON INVOKING ARTICLE 5 AND EITHER FORCING NATO TO ATTACK ISRAEL OR IN EFFECT DISBAND.
AND ANOTHER THING NO ONE ELSE HAS SAID:

IF WE HAD A TRULY PRO-ISRAEL AND A PRO-WEST ADMINISTRATION - WHICH WANTED TO DEFEAT THE ISLAMIST ENEMY - THEN THIS FLOTILLA COULD BE MADE TO BACKFIRE ON THE TURKS:
  • THIS MAKES TURKEY ALLIED TO AL QAEDA.
  • AND ... THIS MEANS WE CAN FORCE NATO TO ATTACK TURKEY.
I THINK THERE SHOULD BE AN INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATION OF THE TURKISH GOVERNMENT TO SEE IF THEY ARE COOPERATING WITH AL QAEDA.

I THINK THEY ARE - JUST LIKE THEIR ALLY IRAN.
  • WHICH MEANS WE SHOULD KICK TURKEY OUT OF NATO
  • AND HAVE SANCTIONS AGAINST THEM -
  • AND STOP RUSSIA FROM BUILDING TURKEY NUCLEAR REACTORS; (RIGHT NOW THEY PLAN ON BUILDING THE TURKS SEVERAL).
TOO BAD FOR THE FREE WORLD OBAMA IS EITHER AN APPEASER OF ISLAMISM OR A CRYPTO-MUSLIM.

ARE GAZANS OR SO CALLED "PALESTINIAN" WEST-BANKERS STARVING?

NOPE:

When the clowns sing about the starving Palestinians. They may be unaware of this:

GAZAN AND WEST BANK WOMEN WEIGH IN AT NUMERO 3 FAT-ASSES!

OVER ALL, MUSLIM WOMEN ARE VERY FAT.

I HAVE A THEORY AS TO WHY:

IT'S SELF-DEFENSE: THEY DON'T WANNA APPEAR ATTRACTIVE TO MUSLIM MEN.

CAN YOU BLAME THEM!!?!?

IN GALLUP'S GENERIC POLL, GOP HAS LARGEST ALL-TIME LEAD OVER DEMS

BIGGEST LEAD EVER.

THEY WILL GET A LOWER TURNOUT THAN THEY DID IN 2008, AND WE WILL GET A MUCH HUGER TURNOUT.

AND KICK THEIR BUTTS!

AWESOME!

THE AL QAEDA/ALINSKY FLOTILLAGANDA

“We have been working non-stop for the last twenty-four hours examining the cargo holds of the three large cargo ships and I can say with great assurance, that none of the equipment on board is needed in Gaza.

The equipment that we found is all equipment that we have regularly allowed into the strip over the past year,” said Levi.

“This proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the whole premise of the voyage was for propaganda and provocation and not for humanitarian purposes.”
LIKE AL DURA AFFAIR AND JENINGRAD: PURE THEATER.

A RUSE TO FURTHER ISOLATE ISRAEL AND EVEN ALLOW TURKEY TO INVOKE NATO ARTICLE 5.

ALREADY OBAMA HAS SHIFTED THE US POSITION: WE DIDN'T VETO A UNSCR CONDEMNING THE FLOTILLA INCIDENT IN ORDER TO UNAMBIGUOUSLY SUPPORT OUR ALLY.

OBAMA PANDERED TO THE MUSLIMS.

NO SURPRISE.

STAY TUNED...

FINALLY: RALPH PETERS SEES WHAT WE SAW: TURKEY IS NO ALLY OF THE WEST

RALPH PETERS TODAY:

The US and the European Union cling to the fiction that Turkey's a "westernized Muslim democracy." But Turkey's moving to the east as fast as the Islamist leaders of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) can drag it there.

Turkish leaders visit the West and sing, "Democracy, democracy, democracy!" We coo and clap. Then they go east and cry, "Islam, Islam, Islam!" And we insist they don't mean it.

Then there's Turkey's unfortunate NATO membership. Since the rise of its Islamists, Turkey has been a Trojan horse, not an ally. What happens now if Ankara provokes a military confrontation? How would we respond, given NATO's mutual-defense agreements?

THE WEEKLY STANDARD NOTICES FOR THE FIRST TIME, TOO:

The most ominous aspect of the flotilla incident is Turkey's involvement. The flotilla bound for Gaza, in violation of the blockade, was allowed to leave a Turkish port. The main sponsor was a Turkish charity known for ties to jihadist groups. The Turkish diplomatic and governmental apparatus sprung into action at the first sign of trouble -- which of course there was, since the "peace activists" onboard the flotilla were masked and armed with lead pipes and knives.

Why is this troubling? Because Turkey is a member of NATO
WE'VE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR MONTHS.

THE FIRST TIME HERE - IN JANUARY!

I'M GLAD THE BIG-TIMERS AND FRONTBENCHERS ARE WAKING UP.

IT'S TIME TO KICK TURKEY OUT OF NATO.

THEY ARE MORE ALIGNED WITH IRAN THAN THE WEST.

JUST AS I PREDICTED: TURKEY CALLS ON NATO!

AP/JPOST: NATO calls for probe into raid
Call for investigation of Gaza flotilla raid instigated by Turkey.

NATO called Tuesday for a "prompt, impartial, credible and transparent investigation" into Monday's Israeli raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla that ended with the deaths of nine activists.

Representatives of the alliance's 28 nations met on Tuesday to discuss the incident. Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen demanded the immediate release of the detained civilians and ships held by Israel.
THIS IS JUST A HOLDING MOVE - LIKE MOVING A PAWN - IN PREPARATION FOR SENDING A TURKISH NAVAL SHIP WITH THE NEXT FLOTILLA AND DELIBERATELY ENGAGING THE IDF IN ORDER TO INVOKE NATO ARTICLE 5.

AS I PREDICTED LAST WEEK.

NO ONE ELSE DID.

ONLY I SAW IT COMING.

SIGH. SPREAD THE WORD... STAY TUNED ...

UPDATE: TURKEY IS PRESSING FOR AN ISRAELI/USA SPLIT:
Turkey demanded on Tuesday that the United States condemn the botched Israeli raid on an aid flotilla that ended with Israeli soldiers killing nine activists.

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu told reporters ahead of a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton that Turkey was disappointed with the Obama administration's response to the raid.

He said that he had scheduled a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington on Monday to discuss indirect talks with Syria before Netanyahu canceled his trip Sunday.

The White House has reacted cautiously, asking for disclosure of the full facts about the raid. The killings have put the administration in an awkward position between two allies at a time that it is trying to refocus Middle East peace talks and win new sanctions against Iran in the United Nations Security Council.

In a sign of the sensitivity of the raid on U.S.-Turkish relations, the State Department closed coverage of the meeting to the press. It had previously scheduled a photo opportunity, a venue in which reporters probably would have tried to ask questions.

Before they met, however, Davutoglu was perfectly open about the message he would convey to Clinton.

''I have to be frank: I am not very happy with this statement from Washington yesterday,'' Davutoglu said. ''We expect a clear condemnation.''

A USA-ISRAEL SCHISM IS WHAT THE LEFT HAS WANTED FOR A LONG TIME - AND IT'S WHY THEY WERE A BIG PART OF THE FLOTILLA; THEY WERE THE FLOTILLAS "COVER".

TURKEY IS USING THE FLOTILLA AND THEIR NATO MEMBERSHIP TO HELP DRIVE THE WEDGE.

AND OBAMA IS INCLINED TO AGREE.

STAY TUNED...

QUESTION FOR ERDOGAN AND THE UN: WHAT IF ISRAEL WAS ARMING THE KURDS?

TURNABOUT IS FAIR-PLAY, ISN''T IT?

RELIAPUNIDT RIGHT AGAIN: PREDICTED TURKISH NAVY WOULD GET INVOLVED - AND NOW THEY ARE!

NOBODY ANYWHERE IN ANY MEDIA PREDICTED IT EXCEPT FOR ME:
Holy Sweet Lord, Turkey has announced they will send another flotilla to Gaza—escorted by the Turkish Navy!

2010 May 31
by Ian Welsh

If they actually do this, it is the very definition of throwing down.

Wow.

Does Israel want a war with Turkey? They can’t win it, short of using nukes, and Turkey is a NATO member, if Israel attacks NATO ships, Turkey can invoke Article V (in fact, they can invoke it already, since the ships were attacked by a non NATO power on the high seas.) If Turkey does so, of course NATO nations will refuse, but doing so will break NATO.

This is high stakes.
HIS SOURCE:
New Delhi: Turkey has threatened Israel with unprecedented action after Israeli forces attacked an aid vessel, killing 10 peace activists headed to Gaza.

Israel said 10 people died while those on the ship said at least 15 were killed.

A shocked world has responded with outrage. Turkey recalled its ambassador to Israel and warned of unprecedented and incalculable reprisals.

Two Turkish activists were reported to be among those killed in the flotilla. Ankara warned that further supply vessels will be sent to Gaza, escorted by the Turkish Navy, a development with unpredictable consequences.

Israel has sounded an alert throughout the country fearing rocket attacks by Hezbollah in Lebanon.

The Arab League has called an urgent meeting on Tuesday to decide on a common response. Egypt is under pressure to end the blockade of Gaza while Greece has cancelled a military exercise with Israel.
I PREDICTED THIS HERE - BEFORE THE FLOTILLA LEFT TURKEY.

NO ONE ELSE DID.

REGULAR READERS KNOW I DO THIS ALL THE TIME.

SPREAD THE WORD.

MORE PROOF EUROPEAN-STYLE "DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISM" SUCKS: UNEMPLOYMENT REACHES NEW ALL-TIME HIGH; EURO TANKS

BBC:

Unemployment in the eurozone rose again in April to a fresh all-time high, figures from Europe's statistics office have shown.

Eurostat said unemployment in the 16 nations that use the euro now totals 15.86 million - equivalent to 10.1% of the population.

Spain, Ireland and Slovakia recorded the highest rates of joblessness, with the Spanish rate now close to 20%.

Meanwhile, the euro has hit a four-year low against the dollar.

IT'S INSANE FR OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES TO BE TRYING TO MAKE THE USA MORE LIKE EUROPE.

OUR HEALTHCARE SYSTEM IS BETTER AND SO IS OUR ECONOMY.

BUT NOT FOR LONG - UNLESS WE DEFEAT OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS THIS NOVEMBER.

IT'S BEGINNING: OBAMA DIDN'T VETO UNSCR CONDEMNING FLOTILLA ACTIONS AND CALLING FOR THE END OF THE GAZA BLOCKADE

After hours of negotiations, the United Nations Security Council early on Tuesday condemned “acts” resulting in the deaths of nine civilians in Israel’s attack on an aid flotilla trying to breach the Gaza blockade.

In a formal statement that seemed less forceful than what had been demanded by Palestinians, Arabs and Turkey the council also demanded an impartial investigation into the incident on Monday.

The statement also urged that aid ships seized in the raid be released along with civilians held by Israel.

“The Security Council deeply regrets the loss of life and injuries resulting form the use of force during the Israeli military operation in international waters against the convoy sailing to Gaza,” the statement said, adding that the 15-member body “in this context, condemns those acts which resulted in the loss” of lives.

The wording seemed designed to dilute demands for condemnation exclusively of Israel, which argues that its soldiers acted in self-defense in response to violent resistance to their interception of the vessels from passengers on board. After the incident, Israel seized hundreds of activists as well as the ships.

“The Security Council requests the immediate release of the ships as well as the civilians held by Israel,” the United Nations statement said on Tuesday , calling for “a prompt, impartial, credible and transparent investigation conforming to international standards.”

It also said the situation in Gaza, under blockade by Israel, was “not sustainable,” and called for a “sustained and regular flow of goods and people to Gaza, as well as unimpeded provision and distribution of humanitarian assistance throughout Gaza.”

OBAMA IS AS SUPPORTIVE OF ISRAEL AS HE WAS OF THE STUDENT REBELLION IN IRAN.

OBAMA SUPPORTS THE ENEMIES OF ISRAEL.

OBAMA IS PART OF THE PLAN TO ISOLATE ISRAEL AND SUPPORT HAMAS.

JEWS WHO SUPPORT OBAMA ARE JUDENRAT.

PREDICTION:

  • THE ENEMIES OF ISRAEL WILL UNDERTAKE ANOTHER FLOTILLA AND THIS TIME IT WILL BE ACCOMPANIES BY A TURKISH WARSHIP.
  • WHEN ISRAEL TAKES ACTIONS TO TURN IT AWAY, TURKEY WILL RESPOND BY FIRING A SHOT ACROSS THE BOW OF THE ISRAELI NAVY SHIPS AND FIRING AT THE IAF HELICOPTERS.
  • THE IDF WILL RESPOND, AND THEN TURKEY WILL INVOKE ARTICLE 5.
  • OBAMA'S "COMPROMISE" WILL BE SANCTIONS AGAINST ISRAEL - MAYBE EVEN A BLOCKADE - AND AN DEMAND THAT NATO OR UN FORCES TAKE OVER "DEFENSE" OF GAZA AND THE WEST BANK..

STAY TUNED...

UPDATE #1:

Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan told lawmakers in the Parliament that the Israeli military raids on an aid flotilla was an attack ''on international law, the conscience of humanity and world peace.''

''This bloody massacre by Israel on ships that were taking humanitarian aid to Gaza deserves every kind of curse,'' he said, demanding that Israel immediately halt its ''inhumane'' blockade of Gaza.

The flotilla was the ninth attempt by sea to breach the three-year-old blockade Israel and Egypt imposed after the militant Hamas group violently seized the Gaza Strip in 2007, home to 1.5 million Palestinians. Israel allowed five seaborne aid shipments to get through but snapped the blockade shut after its 2009 war in Gaza.

''They have once again showed to the world that they know how good they are at killing people,'' Erdogan said. ''Israel in no way can legitimize this murder, it cannot wash its hand of this blood.''

Erdogan said Turkey would continue to support the Palestinian people.

''We will not turn our back on Palestine, Palestinians and Gaza,'' Erdogan said.

''No one should test Turkey's patience,'' he added. ''Turkey's hostility is as strong as its friendship is valuable.''

UPDATE #2:
Israel will use more aggressive force in the future to prevent ships from breaking the sea blockade on the Gaza Strip, a top Navy commander told The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday.

"We boarded the ship and were attacked as if it was a war," the officer said. "That will mean that we will have to come prepared in the future as if it was a war."
THIS IS WHAT TURKEY WANTS. AND HAMAS. AND IRAN. AND OBAMA.

STAY TUNED...

HMMM: IRAN IS TRAINING TALIBAN - AND TALIBAN IS USING BI-CHEM WEAPONS ON US TROOPS

IRAN IS TRAINING THE TALIBAN.

IN WHAT!?!?

NOT CAVE-LIVING OR MOUNTAIN CLIMBING OR GOAT-FECKING.

HMMM....

COULD IT BE... BIO-CHEM WEAPONS?

I THINK SO.

I WONDER EHO THEY'LL GIVE THEIR 2 NUKES TO?

YUP: THEY HAVE ENOUGH URANIUM TP MAKE 2 NUKES - ACCORDINING TO THE UN:
In their last report before the United Nations Security Council votes on sanctions against Iran, international nuclear inspectors declared Monday that Iran has now produced a stockpile of nuclear fuel that experts say would be enough, with further enrichment, to make two nuclear weapons.
THE USA SHOULD ATTACK IRAN BEOFRE THE MAKE THESE 2 NUKES.

BUT I GUESS OBAMA WON'T AND ISRAEL WILL.

Israel Feeds Palestinians - Not Arabs, Not USA, ISRAEL!

The worlds media spins Israel's enforcement of the blockade on Gaza as being a raid on a "six-boat flotilla carrying 10,000 tons of supplies for Gaza".

The truth is, Israel enforces the blockade to keep weapons out of Gaza, in hopes they can stem the tide of rocket attacks on their citizenry.

The truth is, Gaza is already supplied with all the food and aid it needs, and it is supplied by Israel.

Gaza shares a border with Egypt, but Egypt does not feed the people of Gaza.

THE TRUTH IS,

ISRAEL FEEDS THE PEOPLE OF GAZA,

NOT EGYPT,

NOT THE ARAB NATIONS IN GENERAL,

NOT THE USA,

ISRAEL!

From me, Pastorius, at Infidel Bloggers Alliance, dated January 8, 2010:


Egypt Kicks Galloway Out, Declares Him "Persona Non Grata" - Why? Because, The Egyptians Fear The Gazans Even More Than Israel Does

George Galloway, who is either Britain's biggest Dhimmi, has been banned from Egypt for life:

CAIRO – Egypt on Friday declared renegade British lawmaker George Galloway persona non grata, accusing him of incitement after his harsh criticism of Cairo over delays in an aid convoy's entry into Gaza, the foreign ministry said Friday.
"George Galloway is considered persona non grata and will not be allowed to enter into Egypt again," a Foreign Ministry statement said. The activist left Egypt Friday morning from Cairo airport.
Earlier, British press reported Galloway had been deported from Egypt. They said he was forcefully taken by police from the Rafah crossing with Gaza to Cairo airport where he was put on departing British Airways plane.
Galloway led more than 500 activists as part of an international aid convoy to Gaza. They entered late Gaza Wednesday from Egypt after a month traveling. Egypt gave them only 24 hours in the blockaded sea side strip before it said it would reclose the crossing.
Note how stringent Egypt is about their border with Gaza. In fact, doesn't it seem they treat the Gaza border in the exact same manner as Israel? Why do you think that is? Could it be that the Palestinians really are a murderous and malevolent population?

In fact, the Egyptians consider the Gazans so dangerous that they have constructed a steel wall along the Gazan border that goes up to 100 feet underground, so that they Palestinians can not tunnel through to Egypt either.

Arab News has reported on the wall, and here we learn some interesting information:
RIYADH: The Egyptian ambassador to Saudi Arabia has dismissed allegations that a steel underground wall being built by his country on its border with the Gaza Strip is aimed at starving local Palestinian people or forcing them to support any resumption of peace talks with Israel.
Mahmoud Ouf issued the denial at the launch of the new Egyptian Cultural Center in Riyadh on Wednesday night. “Forced starvation is not possible because 95 percent of Gaza’s food, medicine and electricity do not come through these tunnels, but via crossing points along the border with Israel,” he said.
So, the Egyptians build a wall to keep the Palestinians out, and you don't hear about it in the UN or the world's press. But, when the Israelis build a security fence, you hear that the Israelis are attempting to turn Gaza into a prison cell, that they're trying to commit mass genocide against the Palestinians, etc., etc.

But, here we see the Egyptian government admit, 95% of Gazas food and supplies come through the Israeli border.

In other words, the Jews make sure the Gazans are fed and supplied, not the Arabs.

Why is that not reported ad nauseum?

It's almost as if the Arab people are attempting to commit genocide against the Palestinians, so that they can blame it on the Jews, isn't it?

Almost as if, indeed.

JUST AS I PREDICTED: ISLAMIST TURKEY GETTING READY TO EXPLOIT FLOTILLA

REUTERS:
Turkey, Israel's strongest Muslim friend in the region, summoned Israel's ambassador and said it would recall its own.

"This action, totally contrary to the principles of international law, is inhumane state terrorism. Nobody should think we will keep quiet in the face of this," Erdogan told reporters from Chile, where he was cutting short an official visit to Latin America to deal with the crisis.
NYTIMES:
The Israeli commando raid Monday on an aid flotilla, which left at least nine people dead, has dragged relations between Israel and Turkey to a new low, political experts here say, threatening to derail diplomatic relations between two close American allies.

Turkey, a NATO member, has long been Israel’s closest friend in the Muslim world, with $3 billion in trade and strong ties between the countries’ militaries and governments. But relations began to deteriorate during Israel’s war in Gaza, when Turkey’s prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, publicly sparred with Israel’s president, Shimon Peres, at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

Monday’s raid prompted street protests in Turkey and a strong official reaction, with Ankara recalling its ambassador from Israel, summoning Israel’s ambassador and canceling planned joint military exercises. That was enough to raise alarms among analysts here, who said it could seriously jeopardize already battered diplomatic relations between the countries.

“This will be perceived as a kind of declaration of war on Turkey,” said Cengiz Candar, a columnist for Radikal, a Turkish daily. “Political dialogue will cease. It’s not possible to contain the deterioration in relations anymore.”

REPEAT: “This will be perceived as a kind of declaration of war on Turkey,”

REPEAT: “This will be perceived as a kind of declaration of war on Turkey,”

THIS WAS THE WHOLE POINT - AS I PREDICTED LAST WEEK.

AND OBAMA WAS PART OF THE PLOT.

MORE FROM THE NYTIMES:

Asli Aydintasbas, a columnist at the Turkish Daily Milliyet, argues that the episode was a dramatic failure in diplomacy, for both the United States and Turkey. The new foreign policy pursued by Turkey’s government has given it a confidence that sometimes results in overreaching. For example, Turkey believed it could change Israeli policies towards Gaza.

“This was a disaster waiting to happen,” said Ms. Aydintasbas. “Both Turkish and American officials could have stopped the boats from moving forward. It’s clear they didn’t try hard enough.”

DIDN'T TRY HARD ENOUGH?!?

THAT IS O SO SO SOOOOOOOOOO FUHREEEKIN' NAIVE.

THE FLOTILLA AND THE INEVITABLE IDF RESPONSE AND THE PREDICTABLE EXPLOITATION OF THAT RESPONSE BY THE ISLAMISTS AND THE LEFT AND THE MSM AND THE "INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY" (BOLSTERED BY OBAMA) WAS THE PLAN (A PLAN PROBABLY HATCHED UP BY AYERS AND CODE PINK AND OBAMA), NOT THE FAILURE OF PLANNING!

IOW: NOT A BUG, A FEATURE:
  • BOTH ERDOGAN AND OBAMA WANT ISRAEL DESTROYED.
  • THE FLOTILLA WAS TIMED TO COME A WEEK AFTER THE NPT AGREEMENT ISOLATING ISRAEL AND THE DAY BEFORE A VISIT TO DC BY BIBI.
  • NEITHER THE TIMING OF THE NPT DEAL OR BIBI'S INVITE COULD BE DONE WITHOUT THE USA'S AGREEMENT - MEANING OBAMA WAS EXPLICITLY INVOLVED.
I THINK ERDOGAN WILL ORDER THE PURGED TURKISH MILITARY TO ACCOMPANY ANOTHER TURKISH "AID" SHIP TO GAZA AND THEN ENGAGE THE IDF AT SEA, AND THEN INVOKE NATO'S ARTICLE 5. I PREDICTED THIS ON 5/26/10.

EITHER NATO JOINS ATTACKING ISRAEL OR NATO IS DESTROYED. DESTROYING NATO HELPS RUSSIA AND THE TALIBAN AND AL QAEDA.

STAY TUNED...
