AN IMPORTANT REMINDER OF RIGHT-WING BETRAYAL FROM 2005

Caroline Glick reminds everyone of the "disengagement", how Ariel Sharon turned to committing sickening acts of anti-demoncratic behavior and how even the alleged supporters of Israel turned against them, leading to the very terrible fix we're in now:
After both the Oslo process and the withdrawal from Lebanon left Israel strategically and diplomatically weakened, with its politicians, generals and its very existence brought before international tribunals and targeted by diplomatic pogroms, there was no basis for the empty claim that by withdrawing from Gaza, Israel would gain international legitimacy to defend itself.

By leaving Gaza, Israel was saying - as it had in Lebanon - that it had no right to be there. And if it had no right to be there, it had no right to return.

To force this mad initiative through, Sharon had to explicitly disavow the platform he was elected to implement. Sharon won the 2003 elections by pledging never to surrender Gaza.

After he betrayed his voters, Sharon demonized and, when possible, fired everyone in positions of power and influence who opposed him.

He called a referendum of Likud members to vote on his plan, and when his opponents won the vote overwhelmingly, he ignored it. He fired Lt.-Gen. Moshe Ya'alon, then IDF chief of General Staff. He fired his cabinet ministers. He castigated as "rebels" his party members who opposed his plan.

Moreover, with the active collusion of the legal system, Sharon violently repressed his political opponents. Young girls were thrown into jail without trial for months for participating in anti-withdrawal demonstrations. Privately chartered buses en route to lawful demonstrations were interdicted by police and prevented from traveling.

Protest organizers were arrested in their homes at 3 a.m. And with the active collusion of the media, all debate on the merits of the withdrawal plan was stifled.

As bad as it was in Israel, the situation in the US was arguably even more devastating. Since Oslo, Israeli opponents of the Left's strategic insanity were intellectually and politically buoyed by their conservative counterparts in America.

The latter helped legitimize political opposition and enabled the conceptualization and maintenance of alternative policies as viable options.

Despite government repression, some 45 percent of Israel's Jewish population actively participated in anti-withdrawal protests. In the US, virtually no one supported them. The absence of opposition owed to the fact that in America withdrawal opponents were boycotted, demonized and blacklisted by the American Jewish community and the previously supportive conservative media.

During the years of the fake peace process, conservative US Jewish groups and conservative publications led by Commentary, The Weekly Standard and The Wall Street Journal forcefully opposed it. But when Sharon joined the radical Left by adopting its plan to withdraw from Gaza, these formidable outlets and institutions enthusiastically followed him.

Leading voices like former Jerusalem Post editor and Wall Street Journal editorial board member Bret Stephens, Commentary editors Norman Podhoretz and Neal Kozodoy, commentator Charles Krauthammer and Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol not only lined up to support the dangerous planned withdrawal. They barred all voices of opposition from the pages of their publications.

To greater and lesser degrees, their shunning of voices that warned against the Gaza withdrawal continues to this day.

So, too, with the exception of the Zionist Organization of America, every major American Jewish organization supported the withdrawal.

Like the editors of Commentary, the Weekly Standard and the Wall Street Journal, they barred voices of opposition from speaking to their groups.

All commentators who warned of the strategic calamity that would befall Israel in the aftermath of a withdrawal from Gaza were marginalized and demonized as extremists.

In a notable gesture, this week, Stephens along with Commentary's Max Boot, acknowledged their error in supporting the withdrawal from Gaza. Their recantations are noteworthy because most of their colleagues who joined them in pushing Israel down the garden path and cheered Sharon's "democracy" as 8,500 Israelis were thrown out of their homes and off their land in order to free it up for a terrorist takeover, continue to deny that they were wrong to do so.

But Stephens's and Boot's belated intellectual integrity on Gaza is not enough to make a difference for Israel today.
Of course not. For now, that these so-called defenders of democracy refused in any way, shape or form to speak out against a disgusting man who committed undemocratic behavior in his last days of living is shameful, and puts their support for democracy under a question mark. How are we really supposed to believe that they even want China to become a democracy if they're going to even remotely support totalitarian movements like the PLO, which has more or less run their own enclaves with sharia tactics? And supposing Sharon made racist statements against blacks? Would they have suppressed that info as well because this is Sharon who might've uttered blasphemy? If they did that, they'd be stooping to dark paganism.

If there's anybody Stephens, Podhoretz, Boot, Kozodoy, Kristol, Krauthammer and even Jonathan Tobin owe an apology to, it's the Jews once living in Gaza at whose expense they supported this whole sham, and contradicted their alleged belief in democracy as a result. How can they say they support freedom and then fully throw their weight behind the notion of turning Gaza over to an entity that's more than 99 percent the opposite of that? I'd say they have a lot of explaining to do, and one could reasonably argue that this is exactly why the GOP failed to win the election this year too. Just how do they expect to be truly successful if they cannot take a clear stand on what they believe in? Glick was absolutely correct to take them to task for their own shameful behavior, which is as disrespectful to Americans as it is to Israelis. They shouldn't even be working as columnists for major papers if they cannot or will not comprehend the real enemies and are willing to sacrifice their beliefs for the sake of dhimmitude. What they did is exactly what Benjamin Franklin considered abhorrent:
Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.
That's exactly what the so-called conservatives supporting the "disengagement" did, and in doing so betrayed even Arabs in Gaza with common sense.

MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD DICTATOR IN EGYPT EXPANDS POWERS, LEADS TO MORE CLASHES

Just as many experts on mideast affairs were afraid would happen, Mohammed Morsi has made further power grabs in the Muslim Brotherhood's plans for turning the country into even more of a sharia-dominated hellhole:
Morsi’s newly-found power comes as he rationalized it will weed out the “weevils eating away at the nation of Egypt.” The Muslim Brotherhood, alleges liberal democrats and secularists alike, have monopolized power, wrote the constitution without the input of other parties, and has not cured the economic and security woes facing Egypt after Mubarak’s ouster.

Morsi has ultimate power in Egypt after his latest edict, which hamstrings the independent judiciary. The judiciary had dissolved the parliament, and with this new edict, he is in virtual control of the country. The laws that he has declared can be immune from court appeals and cannot be stopped or overturned by the judiciary. In addition, the judiciary cannot dissolve the upper house of parliament that is writing the constitution. That is because his party, the Muslim Brotherhood, is in control of that legislative body.
And now, violent clashes have broken out once more in Cairo between dissenters who may or may not be in favor of democracy and the forces loyal to the Muslim Brotherhood. Sooner or later, a full scale war is bound to erupt not unlike what's going on in Syria.

Update: here's more on the subject from Power Line.

"SON OF HAMAS" SAYS ISRAEL MADE MISTAKE WITH CEASE-FIRE

Mosab Hasan Yousef, the son of a Hamas leader who reformed, has said that Israel made an error with the capitulation:
Mosab Hassan Yousef, the son of one of the founders of the Hamas terrorist organization and author of the book “Son of Hamas,” said on Friday that Israel made a mistake by agreeing to a ceasefire with Gaza’s terrorist rulers.

Yousef has spent a number of years abroad following a decade in which he risked his life working undercover as an agent for the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet). His code name during that time was 'The Green Prince.'

"What is important is that at the moment there is a ceasefire, and I think we need to look at things and digest all of what happened," Yousef told Israel’s Channel 2 News in a special interview.

"I believe the Shin Bet did its best,” he added. “Let's not forget that our enemy is a barbaric one which uses women and children as human shields, and in these situations we are very limited, because we care about the lives of innocent citizens.”

Asked about the possibility of an Israeli ground operation in Gaza, Yousef responded that "it may be that it was not the best timing for action of this kind - but I'm sure it's a possibility that Israel will consider for the future."

"Israel should not reoccupy Gaza, but I believe that it has the ability to guard the borders through which Hamas transfers weapons," said Yousef, adding that he believes there may be another round of violence between the two sides. "Today we know that they have greater capabilities than ever before. I'm sure it will allow us to prepare for the future,” he said.

Speaking about the possibility that Israel would have to work towards toppling the Hamas regime in Gaza, the former Shin Bet agent said, "This is necessary, but we have to work very hard for it. This is necessary not only for Israel - but for the benefit of humanity. Hamas was born to destroy. It cannot build.”
I'm disappointed at his saying Israel shouldn't reoccupy Gaza, because besides its being Jewish land, not doing so is exactly what prolongs the problem. And if we need to work hard at the job, isn't now the time to have done so?

SUSPECTS IN TA BUS BOMBING ARRESTED

The Israeli authorities have captured some of the monsters who were involved in the bombing that took place in Tel Aviv:
Shin Bet officers and police arrested the terrorists who bombed a bus in Tel Aviv on Wednesday several hours after the device exploded, the agency revealed on Thursday evening.

The cell’s members mostly came from Beit Lakia, near Ramallah, the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) announced in a statement, without saying how many were under arrest.

During their preliminary interrogation, the cell’s members identified with Hamas and Islamic Jihad and said they had agreed to commit an act of terrorism, prepared the bomb and purchased cellular phones to detonate it by remote control.

They also said one of the cell’s members was from Taiba in Israel. He originally come from Beit Lakia, and acquired Israeli citizenship after marrying an Israeli Arab.

The cell is said to have reached Tel Aviv in a car belonging to an Arab from east Jerusalem who employed the man from Taiba. The latter was in charge of putting the device on the bus, and after he notified his Beit Lakia commander by phone, the bomb was detonated from Beit Lakia.

The Shin Bet said the interrogation was still not complete and that further arrests were expected.

Of the 28 Israelis wounded in the bombing, five remained hospitalized on Thursday, one in serious condition.
Those who took part in this cell should have their citizenship revoked for their horrific crimes. It's lucky that there weren't any deaths in this attack.

MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD AND MORSI SHOW THEIR TRUE COLORS: MORSI DECLARES HIMSELF VIRTUAL DICTATOR OF EGYPT

REPEAT: MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD AND MORSI SHOW THEIR TRUE COLORS: MORSI DECLARES HIMSELF VIRTUAL DICTATOR OF EGYPT.


RESIDENTS OF SOUTHERN ISRAEL GALLED AT THE CAPITULATION

As expected, the citizens of Sderot and Ashdod are angry at the weak way the Netanyahu government dealt with the Hamas:
Eight days after Operation Pillar of Defense began, southern residents received the news of a ceasefire between Israel and Gaza groups with great disappointment.

"This wasn't the conclusion we prayed for," said Ashdod Mayor Yehiel Lasri, whose city continued to come under fire after 9 pm Wednesday, when the truce went into effect. "I am afraid this lull will last for only a short while, and hope that at least we have garnered international support for a harsh response that will become necessary when the fire is renewed."

Sderot Mayor David Buskila echoed the sentiment, saying he opposes the way the hostilities were put to an end. Dozens of residents of the city rallied on Wednesday night against the truce agreement and called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resign.

"The fighting should have been concluded with an accord indicating Israel's clear supremacy and with the Israeli deterrence being restored to its former level," he said. "I hope the decision turns out to have been the right one. Only time will tell.

"In any case, I feel no pride," he added.
Overnight, sirens still sounded in the region, as at least 13 more rockets were fired, and I won't be surprised if many of these people won't vote for Likud in the upcoming election.

Update: Daniel Greenfield says it right:
There is no ceasefire, despite declarations from the international community to the contrary, just as there has been no peace for the past twenty years despite peace accords being signed.

In the language of diplomacy, ceasefire does not mean that the rockets will stop falling and peace does not mean an end to the violence. They mean only that Israel is not allowed to fight back when the rockets fall and the bombs go off. Peace does not mean an absence of killing; what it means is that the terrorists are the only ones allowed to kill.

The ceasefire means that diplomacy has succeeded and the goal of diplomacy in the Middle East is not to make it possible for Israeli children to sleep safely at night, but to pull back Israel from finishing a war.
Exactly. And if Netanyahu's election campaign fails because of this, he will have to recognize and come to terms with his guilt in this whole affair.

EVEN AFTER THE CEASEFIRE, MORE MISSILES

And Reuters is willing to publish and admit it:
Nov 21 (Reuters) - Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip launched 12 rockets into Israel during the hour after a ceasefire was announced between Israel and Islamist militants on Wednesday, an Israeli police spokesman said.

Israel and the Islamist Hamas movement agreed to an Egyptian-sponsored ceasefire that came into effect at 9 p.m. (1900 GMT) to halt an eight-day conflict around the Gaza Strip that has killed more than 140 Palestinians and five Israelis.

Spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the 12 rockets landed in open areas and caused not damage or casualties. "We have not changed our mode of alert and remain vigilant," Rosenfeld said.

An Israeli military spokeswoman said the "Iron Dome" anti-missile system had intercepted some of the rockets. She added that Israel had ceased all air strikes on Gaza after the ceasefire came into effect.

In Gaza, witnesses reported one explosion shortly after the truce took effect, but there were no casualties and the cause of the blast was unclear.
What does this tell? Quite a bit, I'd say. Even if the authorities are still on the alert, Netanyahu owes an apology, if you ask me.

HMMM: OBAMA CLEANING UP LOOSE ENDS IN BENGHAZI!?!?!


A senior Libyan security official was assassinated outside his home in the eastern city of Benghazi,
officials said on Wednesday. His death was the latest in a series of mysterious killings that have raised fears about the country’s precarious postwar security.
The official, Faraj Mohammed al-Drissi, who had held the post of Benghazi’s security director for only a few weeks, was shot to death late Tuesday night as he was returning from work, according to Wanis al-Sharif, a local Interior Ministry official.
HMMM...

FIRST THE AL QAEDA REFERENCE MYSTERIOUSLY DISAPPEARS FROM THE SUSAN RICE TALKING POINTS AND NOW THIS.


HOW CONVENIENT.

THE FORECAST FOR THE MIDEAST COME 2013

Barry Rubin writes about how, if 2011 was the year of the alleged Arab "spring", then this coming year looks to be the year of the Arab Fall, as totalitarian jihadist movements start to reign, and Salafist gangs roam the mideast, making it all a most horrible place on the earth.

DON'T BE SURPRISED IF NETANYAHU LOSES THE ELECTION OVER THIS CAPITUALATION

It's become official now, that the Israeli government agreed to a cease-fire agreement with the Hamas. In other words, they caved to the demands of Obama and Hilary Clinton, to say nothing Mohammed Morsi.

I already overheard my brother say that he may not vote for Likud because of this, and in this report, it's told:
Demonstrators in Israel's South called on Netanyahu not to agree to a ceasefire, but to restore deterrence and security. A Channel 2 political analyst noted that the demonstrators are largely Likud voters and said Netanyahu will have a problem with these voters if he agrees to a ceasefire at present.
Oh yes, there's some truth to that. We'll see how things turn out in coming weeks and month, but for now, he may have jeopardized his party's electoral chances by taking such an atrocious risk.

On the TV news, I heard that Ehud Barak, Dan Meridor and Benny Begin pushed for this. But even so, Netanyahu's own weakness here could very well end up costing the Likud very badly.

JUAN WILLIAMS ACTS AS APOLOGIST FOR HAMAS, AND SHEPARD SMITH ATTACKS NETANYAHU

Town Hall's Katie Pavlich reports that Fox News political commentator Juan Williams is attacking Israel for defending itself against the Hamas' rocket attacks. He's quite a disgrace, and I don't expect that to change even after the bombing in Tel Aviv today.

And he's not the only atrocious contributor to Fox who's acting smart: even Shepard Smith's been acting disgusting, insinuating that Netanyahu started the war in Gaza for political gain! This is just why no decent person should ever take a naive approach to the Fox network.

FEDERAL-POSTAL COALITION REQUESTS SPECIAL TREATMENT

From the National Journal, on November 21, 2012:
The Federal-Postal Coalition -- a group representing more than two dozen federal employee unions -- pleaded with Congress on Monday to spare their members in any deal related to the "fiscal cliff."

Federal workers, the coalition wrote in a letter, have contributed more than their fair share toward reducing the debt and are the only group that has been targeted so heavily.

“Federal and postal employees and their families are hardworking, middle-class Americans who are struggling during these tough times just like other Americans,” the group wrote. “No other group has been asked to financially contribute the way they have, and it is time our nation’s leaders found other ways to reduce the deficit than continually taking from those who have dedicated their lives to public service.”...
Oligarchy and the Nanny State are in full bloom.

Weep for America.

Weep for the American taxpayer.

UH-OH: EURO-ZONE FM'S FAIL TO ARRANGE EMERGENCY GREEK DEAL

ABOUT THAT MAYAN COLLAPSE THE LEFT THINKS WAS CAUSED BY A MAN-MADE ECOLOGICAL DISASTER... NEVER MIND!

THE LEFT HAS ARGUED FOR DECADES THAT THE MAYA CIVILIZATION COLLAPSED BECAUSE OF A MAN-MADE ECOLOGICAL DISASTER.
NOW COMES NEWS THAT TOTALLY EFFINGLY PROVES THIS THEORY TOTALLY EFFING WRONG:

HERE'S PROOF THAT THE MAYA CIVILIZATION DID NOT COLLAPSE.

WILL THIS MAKE THE ECO-NUTSIES OF THE LEFT STFU?

DOUBTFUL.

BUT IT SHOULD MAKE THEIR DUPES THINK TWICE.

Barack Obama's "America" Is For Special Interest Groups Only, White Men Need Not Apply

The President of "America" does not care about citizens in general, and he specifically does not particularly care for white people. 

He is a racist. He is now actively ostracizing an entire group of people (and a very large group of people at that) from the country he was elected to represent. 

Words fail me at this point. I will have more to say later.




Fresh off his reelection, President Barack Obama is asking his supporters to complete a survey that asks the people being polled to check off which “constituency groups” they identify with – there are 22 groups listed but not one for “whites” or “men.” 
The post-election survey, distributed through www.barackobama.com to “take this organization forward,” includes the question, “Which constituency groups do you identify yourself with? Select all that apply.” It then lists 22 groups. 
But whites and men are not on the list – women are, as are African Americans, Arab-Americans, Latinos and LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender). 
Other “constituency groups” include “Educators,” “Environmentalists,” “Labor,” “Students,” “People with disabilities,” and “Youth.”

CAIR IN CANADA DEMANDS JEWISH SCHOOL SUBMIT TO SHARIA

Blazing Cat Fur informs that the Canadian branch of CAIR is demanding that a local Jewish school stop using a textbook that teaches about Muhammed with pretty good accuracy. Clearly, they're vindictive as always. Atlas Shrugs has more.

DESPITE AP PROPAGANDA, GAZAN DEATH TOLL IS AMAZINGLY LOW

The AP Wire's been publishing blood libels, claiming that Israel's army has struck civilians, but Melanie Phillips has the real news, and even the BBC themselves are willing to confirm that only 69 casualties were recorded, which is very low.

Not only that, it appears that a lot of the casualties in Gaza were killed by the Hamas' own rockets. More info available at Elder of Zion.

I don't suppose an apology is forthcoming from the AP for their current libels? Alas, I'm sure the answer is no.

Update: here's an example of fauxtography that was debunked too.

IDF PIN-POINTS 80 TERROR SITES AND ONLY KILLS 18 "GAZANS"...

... THAT'S .22 GAZANS KILLED FOR EACH TERRORIST ASSET DEMOLISHED.

IOW: FOR EACH "GAZAN" COLLATERALLY KILLED THE IDF DESTROYS 5 TERRORIST SITES

NEVER BEFORE HAS A NATION UNDER ATTACK EXPENDED SO MUCH CARE IN ITS COUNTER-ATTACK.

THOUGH THAT'S NOT HOW THE MEDIA PRESENTS IT.

BURIED IN THE ARTICLE:
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said they had targeted about 80 sites overnight into Monday, including militant-owned buildings, weapons storage facilities and police stations, bringing its total to 1,350 sites targeted since Wednesday.
CBS - HEADLINE "Israel's assault on Palestinian militants in Gaza takes rising toll on civilians":
In all, 87 Palestinians, including 50 civilians, have been killed in the six-day onslaught and 720 have been wounded.
LET'S ANALYSE THE TOLL:
  • 1350 SITES ATTACKED.
  • 87 KILLED.
  • THAT'S .064 KILLED FOR EACH IDF STRIKE.
  • THAT'S ONE KILLED FOR EVERY 15 ATTACKS - HARDLY AN ONSLAUGHT.
BUT THAT DOESN'T STOP MUSLIMS AND THE INTERNATIONALIST SCUM OF THE LEFT FROM CONDEMNING ISRAEL:
As international pressure mounted Monday for an end to the Israeli-Palestinian violence that has left dozens dead and hundreds wounded, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon flying to the region to personally appeal for a cease-fire. Ban's call for a truce came on the heels of the single deadliest attack -- an Israeli airstrike that killed a family of 10 -- in the conflict that began with militant rocket attacks from Gaza, to which Israel responded with an aerial offensive. "This must stop," Ban said late Sunday. He called on both sides to cooperate with Egyptian-led effort to broker a cease-fire.
THE INTERNATIONALIST SCUM OF THE LEFT AND THEIR GLOBAL JIHADIST ALLIES NEVER CONDEMN THE SCUM OF HAMAS - OR THEIR ALLIES - WITHOUT ALSO ATTACKING ISRAEL AND MAKING THE FALSE MORAL EQUIVALENCE BETWEEN THE TWO SIDES.

FACT: ISRAEL RESPECTS THE LIVES OF "GAZANS" MORE THAN HAMAS.

HAMAS TRIED TO INFLICT AS MUCH CIVILIAN CASUALTIES AS POSSIBLE WHILE ISRAEL TRIED TO INFLICT THE LEAST POSSIBLE.

THE MORAL EQUATION COULD NOT BE CLEARER - OR MORE OUT OF WHACK.

ISRAEL IS GOOD.

HAMAS - AND ITS ALLIES ARE EVIL.

THEY MUST ALL BE ERADICATED.

ONCE AND FOR ALL TIME.

AND THE SOONER THE BETTER.

THAT MEANS FINISHING OFF HAMAS AND HIZB'ALLAH AND THE AYATOLLATARIANS TM IN TEHRAN.

AND ABOLISHING THE UNITED NATIONS. OR AT LEAST THE USA AND ISRAEL - ND OTHER LIKE-MINDED DEFENDERS OF DEMOCRACY AND LIBERTY -  SHOULD WITHDRAW.

PROOF THEY ARE REALLY PLANNING GLOBAL SHARIA

VIDEOS ABOUT "THE GRAND DECEPTION" HERE.



THE MONEY ANGLE OF THE PETRAEUS AFFAIR IS FINALLY BREAKING THROUGH TO THE USA MEDIA...

GLOBE AND MAIL LAST WEEK.

NY DAILY NEWS TODAY:
Ex-CIA boss David Petraeus helped socialite pal Jill Kelley land her gig as an honorary South Korean consul — and she tried to turn the unpaid job into an $80 million bonanza, a New York businessman said.
Adam Victor, the president of New York-based TransGas Development Systems, said he broke off talks with Kelley after she floated the figure in return for lobbying South Korea’s president about a $4 billion project. 
“The only reason we talked to her was Gen. Petraeus — 1,000%,” he told the Daily News Saturday. “The magic name was Petraeus. And it was coming from third parties, as well as from her.” 
Victor recalled meeting with Kelley, 37, outside a VIP suite at the Republican convention in Tampa earlier this year.
WE FIRST BREACHED THIS IDEA ON 11/13.

AND AGAIN HERE AND HERE.

ROUND UP HERE.

STAY TUNED...

I THINK BROADWELL HEARD ABOUT KELLEY'S BURGEONING RELATIONSHIP WITH PETRAEUS AND PRESUMED IT TO BE SEXUAL - BECAUSE SHE WAS PROJECTING.

BUT THE KHAWAMS WERE MORE INTERESTED IN  USING THEIR CONNECTION IN THE MILITARY TO MAKE MONEY.

WERE THE JUST RUBBING THEIR TITS ON THE BRASS, OR WAS THEIR KICKBACKS AND PAYOLA?

CONGRESS SHOULD FIND OUT... NOW.

ROUBINI: 6 REASONS THE USA RALLY IS PETERING OUT

VIA BI:
In a note to clients of his firm last week, Nouriel Roubini gave 6 reasons why the rally has been "running out of steam." 
We summarize them in bullets:
  • Growth is weak.
  • The Eurozone crisis is backsliding again. Greece is coming to a head (once again).
  • Political concerns (fiscal cliff, etc.).
  • Valuations have gotten way stretched, and are difficult to justify given low inflation and more developed market deleveraging.
  • QE is running out of its impact, and unlike past QEs (QE1 and QE2), QE3 was launched near a market peak, and if anything revenue and earnings misses are expected to accelerate.
  • Geopolitical risk is back (Israel, Gaza, Syria, etc.).
HERE'S MY #7: THERE IS NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT THE US ECONOMY OR THE GLOBAL ECONOMY WILL START GROWING.

IF OIL WERE TO DROP TO $45/BARREL AND IF THE US CONGRESS COULD COME TO A REALISTIC COMPROMISE THAT DEALS WITH LONG-TERM DEBT, THEN WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO EKE OUT SOME GROWTH.

I EXPECT NEITHER.

METEOROLOGISTS: THIS WINTER MAYBE THE COLDEST IN 100 YEARS

NO ONE TELL THE LEGACY MEDIA OR THE DEMOCRATS!


YOU CAN TELL YOU'RE GOOD, IF YOU'RE MAKING EVIL PEOPLE YOUR ENEMY

ISRAEL VERSUS ITS ENEMIES.


THE EXPERIENCES OF AN ISLAMIC APOSTATE

The Washington Times has excerpts from the bloggings of the Liberated One, a woman who left Islam but apparently still lives in an Islamic country, so she must be very careful about her identity. She's written about her apostasy and what she's read from the Koran.

MORE PROOF OBAMA STOLE THE ELECTION

VIA GLENN:

NBC Chicago reports:
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that in 59 Philadelphia precincts, Mitt Romney did not receive a single vote. So Ward Room decided to look at the results in the president’s hometown, and see if he won as many shutouts here. The answer: no. Romney was rejected by every voter in only 37 Chicago precincts, an embarrassing result, given that segregation and Machine politics are two of our city’s most notable qualities.
Any doubt there was some vote fraud? Check out this comment on NBC Chicago's website:
In critical swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Illinois there are a lot of precincts in Philadelphia, Cleveland, and Chicago which reported 100% of their votes cast for Obama. These add up to many 10's of thousands of votes for Obama and 0 for Romney. I repeat, 0 for Romney. I have read a number of articles about this and people knowlegable in Political Science and Statistics are starting to take notice of this.Statistically, even if among 10's of thousands of voters all wanted to vote for Obama, it would not be possible to receive 100% of the vote because at least a few would make a mistake and vote incorrectly for Romney. Not to mention the fact that a least a few of those 10's of thousands might actually disagree with Obama. These types of election returns are only seen in countries run by dictators.
