FRENCH SOLDIER STABBED NEAR LA DEFENSE

In what may have been influenced by the graphic murder of a UK soldier, another military official in France was attacked in the neighborhood where La Defense is located. But it's only in this article where they're clearer about the identity of who committed the attack:

A French soldier patrolling a business neighborhood west of Paris was stabbed in the neck on Saturday by a man who quickly fled the scene and is being sought by police, President Francois Hollande said.

The soldier was patrolling in uniform with two other men as part of France's Vigipirate anti-terrorist surveillance plan when he was approached from behind around 1800 p.m. and stabbed in the neck with a knife or a box-cutter.

Hollande, in the Ethiopian city of Addis Ababa, commented on the stabbing to say that the man was still on the run and police were exploring all leads.

"We still don't know the exact circumstances of the attack or the identity of the attacker, but we are exploring all options," Hollande told journalists.

Pardon? The description of the man who attempted the murder is here:

French daily Le Parisien cited a police source as saying the suspected attacker was a bearded man of North African origin about 30 years old, and was wearing an Arab-style garment under his jacket.

The police commander for Hauts-de-Seine is denying this, but is only being stupid by doing so. I hope they catch the filth who tried to murder the soldier, who was very lucky to survive.

A SHARIA ZONE RISES IN THE HAGUE

The Irish Times says that in Holland, there's a Muslim stronghold that's taken a foothold in a neighborhood of The Hague:

There have been calls for an urgent debate in the Dutch parliament about the integration of Muslim immigrants amid claims that one area of The Hague, known locally as “the Sharia triangle”, is being run by a form of unofficial Sharia police.

The claims relate to the district of Schilderswijk, about two kilometres from the city centre, where an almost entirely Muslim population of some 5,000 people surrounds the El Islam mosque, fuelling criticism that the government has failed to ensure a proper ethnic mix in schools and local housing. One recent investigation, in which local people were extensively interviewed, concluded that Schilderswijk had become “orthodox Muslim territory” which was now largely ignored by the city authorities, by politicians and even by the police, on the grounds that it had become self-regulating.

The investigation found that orthodox Muslims had become so dominant that they were dictating what people in the neighbourhood wore and how they behaved.

“The norms of the majority are beginning to take over,” it said.

The chief of police claims they haven't any indication of sharia in the area, but only unmasks himself as an ignoramus. Geert Wilders has taken a visit to Schilderswijk, and he'll hopefully make some noise in protest of this enclave.

3 BRITS ARRESTED FOR POSTING "RACIST TWEETS"

BBC:

Since the attack, a number of people have been charged by police after allegedly offensive messages were posted on social media websites. These include a 22-year-old man from Lincoln, a 28-year-old man from London, a 23-year-old woman from Southsea, and a 19-year-old man from Woking. Three men - two from Gateshead and one from Stockton - have been arrested by Northumbria Police on suspicion of posting racist tweets ahead of a protest by the English Defence League in Newcastle.

IF BRITS CAN BE ARRESTED FOR RACIST TWEETS, THEN EVERY SINGLE MOSQUE IN BRITAIN SHOULD BE SHUT AND EVERY KORAN BURNED AND EVERY IMAM DEPORTED.

SERIOUSLY; WHY ARE MUSLIMS PERMITTED TO SPREAD RACISM AND HATE AND CALLS FOR SERVITUDE, SUBMISSION AND GENOCIDE WHILE NON-MUSLIMS ARE NOT EVEN PERMITTED TO BE CRITICAL OF ISLAM???

I'LL TELL YOU WHY:

THE BRITISH ELITES AND BRITISH GOVERNMENT ARE COWARDS AND DHIMMIS WHO ARE AFRAID OF MUSLIM BACKLASH.

CAMERON IS SERVING ISLAM MORE THAN HE IS SERVING THE BRITISH.

HE SHOULD BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY FOR HIS COWARDICE,

NEVILLE CHAMBERLAIN NEVER DEFENDED NAZISM AS CAMERON HAS DEFENDED ISLAM.

BRITS HAVE TO TOSS OUT THE COWARDLY TORY AND COWARDLY LIB AND COWARDLY LABOR SCUM RUNNING THINGS THERE AND ELECT UKIP.

THEN DEPORT ALL THE WELFARE-GETTING, HATE-SPREADING MUSLIMS WHO ARE NON-SUBJECTS, AND JAIL THE MUSLIMS SUBJECTS WHO WANT JIHAD AND SHARIA, AND THEN SEGREGATE THE JAILS INTO MUSLIM AND NON-MUSLIM, AND THEN FIRE ALL THE IMAMS WORKING IN THE PRISONS WHO SPREAD JIHAD AND CALL FOR SHARIA. THEN END ALL MUSLIM IMMIGRATION.

MSNBC = STATE-RUN MEDIA

MSNBC IS JUST A BUNCH OF POSTMODERN LEFT-WING PROPAGANDISTS AND APOLOGISTS FOR THE ENEMY.

WHEN DID ISRAEL EVER HAVE THE UK'S SUPPORT?

The answer is never. Not the government and press, anyway. William Hague spoke with Benjamin Netanyahu and told him Israel was losing support in the UK because of "settlements". As though Israel ever had the UK's backing to begin with:

William Hague's comments come after Yuval Steinitz, a close confidant of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said perceptions of Israel were more negative in Britain than in other countries.

"Traditionally we had good relations with Britain and currently we have good intelligence cooperation with Britain and it's very successful," he told the Daily Telegraph.

"(But) we are concerned about the relations, about what we see as some animosities and some incitement in Britain, in the media, made by NGOs (non-governmental organisations) against Israel.

"I hope we will be able to use (Mr Hague's) visit to improve relations."

Mr Hague, though, was unrepentant.

He said: "Israel has lost some of its support in Britain and in other European countries over time - this is something I've often pointed out to Israeli leaders - because of settlement activity, which we condemn.

"We strongly disagree with settlements on occupied land. Israel is a country we work with in many ways but we do disapprove of settlements.

"We want to see both Israelis and Palestinians really commit themselves to the peace process while there is still a chance of a two-state solution."

Blaming both sides as usual, but truly only Israel is the scapegoat for Hague, and again he refuses to recognize that the land he has such a problem with us living on is Jewish, and he has no problem with Islamists enforcing sharia upon anyone. We shouldn't even be asking for their backing, because it would be foolish, and the UK is the least trustworthy of European countries on politics.

And I've got a feeling the only reason Hague even comes here is to blabber on and on with politicians yet never does he take the time to tour it and check out the shopping malls and speak with the common citizen or make friends - because he doesn't want any.

"Slam US troops, go easy on Al Qaeda" = Obama's idea of military justice

J.D. Gordon is a retired Navy Commander who served as a Pentagon spokesman in the Office of the Secretary of Defense from 2005-09: [SOME RECENT MILITAR COURT CASES:]

Army 1st Lt. Michael Behenna – In 2009, Behenna, a platoon leader, was sentenced to 25 years for killing Ali Mansur, an Iraqi with ties to Al Qaeda who was thought be involved in an IED attack that killed two of his troops.  During a botched, impromptu interrogation, Mansur allegedly threw a piece of concrete at Behenna then lunged for his pistol before being shot.  

Oklahoma Republican Senators Jim Inhofe and Tom Coburn have spearheaded efforts by over a dozen lawmakers to point out flaws in the prosecution’s case and conflicting testimony on forensic evidence. An Army Clemency Board has since reduced the sentence to 15 years. 

Army First Sgt. John Hatley, et al – Also in 2009, Hatley received life in prison for the deaths of four Iraqi terror suspects caught fleeing a building found to have sniper rifles, assault rifles and a duffel bag of ammunition -- after a shootout with his patrol.  Hatley was convicted without any forensic evidence, just witness statements years after the fact.  His sentence has since been reduced to 40 years.   

Hatley’s two subordinates, Army Sgt. First Class Joseph Mayo received a 35-year sentence, and Army Sgt. Michael Leahy was sentenced to life in prison. 

And what about Al Qaeda? 

Omar Khadr – In 2010, a Gitmo military commission handed down an 8-year sentence for the 2002 murder of a Delta Force Medic, Army Sgt. First Class Christopher J. Speer in Khost, Afghanistan.  The son of Ahmed Khadr, Usama Bin Laden’s top fundraiser during the Sept. 11 timeframe, Omar was two months shy of his 16th birthday when he threw the grenade that killed Speer, contributing to a disingenuous charm offensive waged by his defense team and supporters portraying him as merely a victim of growing up Al Qaeda.  Khadr is expected to be paroled in his native Canada next year. 

Majid Khan – In 2012, Khan was sentenced at Gitmo to a maximum of 19 years for his role in the Jakarta, Indonesia Marriott bombing of 2003 that killed 11 people, and also plotting with Sept. 11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to poison reservoirs and blow up gas stations in America, as well as conspiring to assassinate Pakistan’s President Pervez Musharraf.  

Let's get this straight: U.S. troops get between 25 years to life, and Al Qaeda gets 19 years or less! 

Amazing. 

Although we’re at war against Al Qaeda and its sympathizers on the battlefield, ironically it’s the terrorists themselves who have seen softer treatment in military courtrooms.There appears to be a pervasive legal mindset from the White House on down that gives adherents of radical Islam the benefit of the doubt in court -- while simultaneously throwing the book at our own soldiers.  

AND THE FT. HOOD JIHADISTS IS STILL BEING PAID BY THE PENTAGON - NEARLY $300,000 SINCE HIS ARREST.

AND THEY RUSHED INTO THE HOSPITAL TO READ TSARNAEV HIS RIGHTS AND GET HIM TO CLAM-UP.

IF OBAMA REALLY WAS A CRYPTO-ISLAMIST TRYING TO HELP THE ENEMY, WOULD HE BE DOING ANYTHING DIFFERENTLY?

NOPE.

JIHAD RIOTS CONTINUE IN STOCKHOLM AND MALMO

For four days now, there's been an outbreak of Muslim rioting in Stockholm, just like the Muslim riots in France several years ago, with the name of the perpetrators' religion conspicuously absent from a lot of the reports (via Jihad Watch and Atlas Shrugs):

Riots continued for the fourth straight night in Sweden Wednesday, as youth set fire to cars and threw stones at police in immigrant suburbs of Stockholm and the southern Swedish city of Malmo.

Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt has appealed for calm in the wake of the violence, which appears to have been instigated by the police shooting of a machete-wielding 69-year-old man in the Stockholm suburb of Husby this month. Police said the shooting was an act of self-defense, but it has triggered accusations of police brutality.

Riots began in Husby, which has a large immigrant population, on Sunday night and have spread to other locations, including the southern suburb of Fittja.

A police station in another southern suburb was set on fire, but no one was injured in the attack and the fire was quickly extinguished, according to media reports. Dozens of cars have been set ablaze during the riots, testing the resources of the local fire departments, according to the police.

At least one police officer was injured in the riots Wednesday night, and two schools, a restaurant and a cultural center have been damaged this week.

Growing Disparities

The violence has been attributed to the growing disparities between rich and poor in the country, where immigrant communities have been affected the most by cuts in state benefits over the past two decades. Official unemployment among the foreign-born is at 16 percent.

"The reason is very simple," Rouzbeh Djalaie, editor of a local newspaper in Husby told the news agency Reuters. "Unemployment, the housing situation, disrespect from police. It just takes something to start a riot, and that was the shooting."

Djalaie told Reuters that local youths are often the subject of unnecessary identity checks from police, who reportedly called them "apes" during the recent riots. The country ranks fourth among 44 industrialized nations in the absolute number of asylum seekers.

Swedish Justice Minister Beatrice Ask called attacks on police officers or rescue personnel "unacceptable," but said she understood why many people in these suburbs are angry. "Social exclusion is a very serious cause of many problems, and we understand that," she said.

The Muslims are the ones advocating social exclusion, and it's a disgrace that she's even remotely justifying their violent behavior. When things like this happen, it destroys economic stability along with the automobiles that were burned, and it makes life terrible for everyone.

OBAMA TO DOWNPLAY OUR BEST COUNTER-TERROR TOOL

C.I.A. to Focus More on Spying, a Difficult Shift
Some American officials and outside experts believe it could take years for a spy agency that has evolved into a paramilitary service to rebalance its activities.

AND THEN THERE'S THIS:

Obama Defies Critics With State Dept. Choice
President Obama's choice for assistant secretary for European and Eurasian affairs is Victoria Nuland, who was involved in editing controversial talking points about the attack last year in Benghazi, Libya.

IF OBAMA REALLY WAS A CRYPTO-ISLAMIST OR MOLE FOR THE RUSSIANS, WOULD HE BE DOING ANYTHING DIFFERENTLY?

NOPE.

NYTimes Puts Brutal Islamist Beheading Story on A7, Omits 'Swear by the Almighty Allah' Line Uttered by Attacker:

While the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal this morning gave front-page coverage to yesterday's grisly beheading of a British serviceman on a London street in broad daylight, the New York Times placed their 20-paragraph story by London correspondent John F. Burns on page A7. Editors slapped on the headline, "'Barbaric' Attack in London Renews Fears of Terror Threat," with "barbaric" in scare quotes. 

While the Post, Journal, and Times all ran quotes from one of the attackers as transcribed from a cell phone video filmed by a bystander, the NYTimes curiously left out a portion of the rant where the attacker boasted, "We swear by the almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you until you leave us alone."

Tommy Robinson of the EDL Reacts to the London Beheading Attack - UPDATED

TOMMY ROBINSON IS A WISE AND BRAVE MAN: 

"Britain is sleepwalking into islamic domination. ... Our troop's blood is on your hands!"

BRUCE BAWER AGREES:

... while Cameron, Livingstone, and company were responding to the Woolwich killing by defending Islam, feigning perplexity, and/or dismissing the idea that this murder had any larger significance, EDL leader Tommy Robinson was speaking the plain and simple truth, accusing the country’s leaders of being “scared to say the word Muslim” and flatly rejecting the fatuous falsehoods about Islam that are proferred in Britain’s classrooms and endlessly reiterated in its media. Said Robinson on Tuesday: “Our next generation are being taught through schools that Islam is a religion of peace. It’s not. It never has been. What you saw today is Islam.”

HILLARY CLINTON'S NEXT JOB SHOULD BE.... AMBASSADOR TO LIBYA!

OR EGYPT OR SYRIA.

JUST SAYING...

CAMERON MAKES THE BEST CASE YET FOR VOTING UKIP

Jamie Glazov 

British PM says they will never surrender to terror and in the next breath tells British soldiers to stop wearing their uniforms outside the base......um okkkkkkkk.......they better start veiling the women next.

UKIP SHOULD TAKE AN HONEST A FIRM STAND AGAINST ISLAMISM, SHARIA AND SEDITION - AND IN FAVOR OF ENDING THE WELFARE STATE AND AND IN FAVOR OF DEPORTATION.

CHARGES FILED AGAINST NAKBA DAY HOODLUM

An Islamofascist from east Jerusalem has been booked for assault:

The Jerusalem District Attorney filed an indictment against Ahmed Abu Alhlawh, an 18-year-old resident of Jerusalem, who attacked a young haredi man during Nakba Day events, held on May 15.

According to the indictment, on Nakba Day the defendant walked to the Damascus Gate with some friends. When the defendant and his friends noticed a group of young haredim, they punched and kicked them, because of their Jewish ethnicity. The haredi that was hospitalized was in fair condition at the time, and stayed in the hospital for five days.

And now the creep who attacked him should be incarcerated for 5 decades for committing a hate crime.

THE PERMANENT BUREAUCRACY VERSUS DEMOCRACY

The current IRS scandal should remind everyone that we have a permanent bureaucracy people by bureaucrats with their own interests - interests which don't necessarily coincide with those of our elected officials.

Administrations and their political appointees come and go, but the bureaucracy is eternal.

And the eternal bureaucracy is not neutral, politically speaking.

The bureaucrats have their own political agenda.

The State Department is run by people who favor diplomacy above all else.
The EPA is run by people who think Nature has a pristine state and that industry is evil.
The IRS is run by people who are statists.

And all unionized government workers are one of three legs on the corrupt GOVERNMENT COMPLEX stool - the other two are politicians who get their donations and the cronies of those politicians who get lucrative contracts from the bureaucracies run by the unionized bureaucrats.

This is why an important federal reform we should all fight for - as a result of the IRS scandal - is to do on a national level what Scott Walker did in his state: rein in the government unions; this is something FDR would have supported; (FDR opposed government unions because he saw the potential for abuse).

Another curative reform would be a flat tax.

The tax code gives politicians too much power - one they have ALL abused.

THE BRITISH TV SERIES - YES, MINISTER - MADE COMEDY OF THIS CONFLICT.

WIKI:

The different ideals and self-interested motives of the characters are frequently contrasted. Whilst Hacker occasionally approaches an issue from a sense of idealism and a desire to be seen to improve things, he ultimately sees his re-election and elevation to higher office as the only measures of his success. Accordingly, he must appear to the voters to be effective and responsive to the public will. To his party (and, in the first incarnation, the Prime Minister) he must act as a loyal and effective party member. 

Sir Humphrey, on the other hand, genuinely believes that it is the Civil Service that knows what is best for the country (a belief shared by his bureaucratic colleagues) which is usually what is best for the Civil Service. Most of Sir Humphrey's actions are motivated by his wish to maintain the prestige, power, and influence he enjoys.

HERE'S HOW THEY MADE FUN OF THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS:



This actually sounds like Syria..

AND HERE'S ONE SHOWING TWO PERMANENT BUREAUCRATS DISCUSSING THEIR TRANSIENT BOSSES - THE POLITICAL APPOINTEES:

UK JIHADISTS HAD BEEN UNDER INVESTIGATION

But nothing was actually done. From USA Today (via The American Thinker and The Jawa Report):

The two suspects videotaped butchering a soldier to death on a London street before spouting extremist slogans to bystanders were part of a early security services investigations for possible terror links, according to a government British official. [...]

The Associated Press, quoting an unidentified British official, said both men had been part of an earlier security services probe.

But they didn't think they were dangerous? This brings to mind the pathetically disastrous efforts to keep the jihad murderer from Toulouse under surveillance.

Speaking of which, David Cameron channeled Nicholas Sarkozy:

Prime Minister David Cameron said on Thursday the brutal murder of a soldier by two suspected Islamists on a London street was an attack on Britain and a betrayal of Islam.

"This was not just an attack on Britain and on the British way of life. It was also a betrayal of Islam and of the Muslim communities who give so much to our country," he said.

"There is nothing in Islam that justifies this truly dreadful act."

He sounds just like Sarkozy did when he weakly condemned the terrorist act in Toulouse. Both seem to share a bit in common: either they haven't read the Koran, or they won't be honest and admit the content that one of the savages referenced in the video recordings. Cameron, like Sarkozy, has only done a disservice to the victims with his cowardice.

Update: The Week has weighed in on the issue, asking if this is part of a rise in lone-wolf terrorism, but unsurprisingly, they won't ask if Islam is what's influencing the savages. The Koran is what should be the concern, not just al Qaeda.

LEADER OF MUSLIM CULT IN GALILEE ON TRIAL FOR CHILD ABUSE

This is something that went on for a decade. The monster who ran it has been arrested and is now facing trial for child abuse:

The details of a shocking child abuse scandal began to emerge on Tuesday in the Galilee town of Majd al-Krum when a Nazareth court lifted the gag order on the affair, which apparently has been going on for ten years.

Munib Farhat, a 56-year-old resident of Majd al-Krum, is suspected of heading a cult and enforcing his will on six families in his community, including dozens of children. The police suspect Farhat of forcing the members of his cult to beat their children, humiliate them, withhold food, lock them in bathrooms and smear them with fecal matter. The cult leader is also suspected of abusing the women in the cult, committing sexual assault and sodomizing them.

The affair was exposed when a woman who belonged to the cult filed a police complaint several weeks ago. A team of investigators consequently launched an undercover probe into the woman's allegations, in cooperation with Welfare Ministry social workers and Interior Ministry officials. The investigation, which was accompanied by the Haifa District Prosecutor's Office, revealed that Farhat, who refers to himself as a caliph, allegedly imposed a very strict disciplinary code on 11 adults and 25 children.

Clearly, a piece of filth who wants to bring back the caliphate of the 7th-8th century. Israel National News says that:

...Farhat was also very involved in cult members' personal lives, and he required them to reveal intimate details of their relationships, and of their finances. He also demanded that members turn over their salaries to him, and he distributed allowances to members. Cult members questioned by police said that Farhat tried to foster total dependence on him, and demanded that they loyally follow his every instruction.

In other words, he operated by the worst ways of socialism. The children and women who were abused by that excremental creature have since been saved and moved to safer living quarters. Farhat should be sent to solitary confinement for his repugnant crimes. Cults like these are the most dangerous kind there is, and at least a year ago, the authorities announced that they're trying to launch a program to deal with cult groupings.

Update: also crucial to note is this equally obscene news that occurred in more recent times of a cult leader from a Haredi background named Elior Chen, who conducted child abuse during 2007-08 in Betar Illit. He was given 24 years in prison, and should have received a much heavier sentence.

MUSLIM IN NORTH CAROLINA STOLE GUN FOR JIHAD

From the AP/KXAN:

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (AP) — A North Carolina man who the FBI says spoke of killing U.S. Army soldiers as part of a personal jihad has pleaded guilty to possessing a stolen firearm.

Erwin Antonio Rios admitted guilt Tuesday in U.S. District Court as part of a plea agreement with federal prosecutors.

In an affidavit filed with the court, FBI Special Agent Frank Brostrom said the 19-year-old from Fayetteville holds extremist Islamic views and told a government informant he would like to kill Fort Bragg soldiers.

Authorities said Rios also plotted to travel overseas to commit violence and devised a scheme to commit armed robberies to get money to buy weapons. The FBI set up a sting where Rios bought what he was told was a stolen handgun and was then immediately placed under arrest.

Obviously, he's another Muslim convert. And now, he's deservedly a jailbird.

UK JIHAD MURDERER REFERRED TO KORAN'S 9TH CHAPTER

Warning: the following video contains graphic images:

Via Robert Spencer, in this CBS report, the jihad savage in London spoke about Surat at-Tawba, the 9th chapter in the Koran, which justifies the murder of infidels. Highlights include:

"And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." -- 9:5

"Fight them; Allah will punish them by your hands and will disgrace them and give you victory over them and satisfy the breasts of a believing people and remove the fury in the believers' hearts. And Allah turns in forgiveness to whom He wills; and Allah is Knowing and Wise." -- 9:14-15

"Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled." -- 9:29

"O Prophet, fight against the disbelievers and the hypocrites and be harsh upon them. And their refuge is Hell, and wretched is the destination." -- 9:73

"O you who have believed, fight those adjacent to you of the disbelievers and let them find in you harshness. And know that Allah is with the righteous." -- 9:123

It's enough to vomit.

JIHADIST SUICIDE ATTACK IN NIGER

Suicide bombers have struck a military camp and a French-run uranium mine in two towns in north-west Niger. A bomb at a military barracks in Agadez killed at least 19 people, including 18 soldiers, Internal Affairs Minister Abdou Labo told the BBC. Four attackers also died there and a fifth is holding four army officers hostage, he said. The attack on the mine, in the town of Arlit, injured 50. The jihadist Mujao group said it had carried out the attacks.

THIS IS WHAT THEY DO.

STOCKHOLM RIOTS CONTINUE... (will Swedes become victims of the Stockholm Syndrome, or will they fight back?)

A fourth night of unprecedented riots in Stockholm has seen unrest spread, with a restaurant and up to 40 cars burnt, police told the BBC. 

Three police officers were hurt as rioters threw stones and directed laser pointers at emergency services. The worst of the latest rioting was in the south of the city, not the north-west where it began on Sunday.

In Sweden: no troops in islamic lands; no Bush; no Tea Party; no Sarah Palin; no Pamela Geller; no support for Israel.

WHAT DID THE SWEDES DO TO DESERVE THIS?

Nothing... except exist.

These ritos - and the beheading in London yesterday - is what islamists do.

The islamists do this in order to spread fear and terror and intimidate people into appeasing them and allowing them to spread sharia.

It's time Europe deported non-citizens who support implementing sharia - which is antithetical and inimical to European democracy and culture and to Western Civilization - and jailed citizens who do for sedition.

IRONIC: it's ironic that these riots are occurring in Stockholm. I have come to believe that islamo-terror's aim is to induce the STOCKHOLM SYNDROME upon non-muslims.

I have even begun to believe that most muslims are not "believers", but hostages to islam - that most muslims, people born into islam - are victims of the Stockholm Syndrome, too.

JAPAN'S NIKKEI PLUNGES 7% ON WEAK CHINA DATA AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FROM BERNANKE THAT THE FED CAN'T MAKE "QE-TERNAL"

CNBC:

[CHINA], the world's second largest economy grew at its slowest pace in three years over January to March, said economists. The flash HSBC Purchasing Manager's Index (PMI) for May that was released on Thursday slipped to 49.6, falling under the key 50 level, which divides expansion from contraction, for the first since October. Last month, the final HSBC PMI stood at 50.4. The decline was driven partly by a fall in new orders - with the sub-index dropping to 49.5, the lowest reading since September. 

"It is not good and it does increase the chances of a sequential slowdown in the second quarter GDP [gross domestic product]. Simply put, domestic demand this time wasn't strong enough to counter fully the impact of still weak external demand," Donna Kwok, greater China economist at HSBC told CNBC on Thursday.

AND JAPAN'S NIKKEI PLUNGED 7% - BECAUSE OF CHINA AND A STRING YEN, AND THE ANNOUNCEMENT BY BERNANKE THAT THE FED MIGHT TURN OFF THE SPIGOT.

THE GLOBAL COLLAPSE MIGHT BE JUST A FEW WEEKS AWAY... OR A FEW MONTHS.

BERNANKE KNOWS THE FED CANNOT CONTINUE TO PRINT MONEY AND PUMP UP THE GLOBAL MARKETS. HE'S BEEN SAYING THIS FOR MONTHS - BUT IT'S JUST BEGINNING TO SINK IN:

When Ben Bernanke testified before Congress Tuesday [FEBRUARY 2013, JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO] and Wednesday, he staunchly defended his easy- money policies like quantitative easing, or "QE Forever." 

"We do not see the potential costs of the increased risk-taking in some financial markets as outweighing the benefits of promoting a stronger economic recovery," the Federal Reserve chairman said. Bernanke added the central bank takes "very seriously" the excessive risk-taking its dovish policies could provoke and is watching markets carefully.
He maintained that the bank's accommodative monetary policy has "supported real growth in employment and kept inflation close to our target [2%]." 

But some Fed officials are growing concerned about quantitative easing - the Fed's purchases of $85 billion in securities a month - and believe it would be prudent to slow or stop the buying well before the end of 2013. 

THE FED CAN'T KEEP PRINTING TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS A YEAR.

IT HAS TO STOP.

UNLESS THERE IS ANOTHER POSITIVE INPUT - (COLD FUSION OR SOME OTHER EVENT THAT BRINGS ENERGY COSTS DOWN DRAMATICALLY, AN  END TO THE CURRENT PHASE OF THE GLOBAL RELIGIOUS WAR, AND END TO SOCIALISM - NONE OF WHICH IS LIKELY) -  IT WON'T BE PRETTY WHEN IT DOES STOP.

IT'S JUST A MATTER OF WHEN.

IT'S NOT OBAMA'S FAULT! PLEASE LEAVE OBAMA ALONE!

HERE'S THE REAL REASON LERNER INVOKED THE FIFTH: SHE WANTS AN IMMUNITY DEAL

LERNER HIRED DC'S BEST LAWYER AND SENT A LETTER TO THE COMMITTEE WARNING THEM SHE WOULD INVOKE THE FIFTH AMENDMENT.

ISSA NOW SAYS HE WILL RECALL HER.

I THINK WHAT'S REALLY HAPPENING IS GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES:

HER LAWYER IS NEGOTIATING TO GET AN IMMUNITY DEAL FROM CONGRESS:

IN RETURN FOR A FULL AND HONEST ACCOUNT OF WHAT REALLY HAPPENED SHE WILL GET IMMUNITY FROM PROSECUTION ON EVERYTHING SHE TESTIFIES TO.

THE HOUSE COMMITTEE HAS TO WEIGH WHETHER THEY THINK SHE WILL IMPLICATE HIGHER UPS AND IF THEY NEED HER TESTIMONY TO GET THEM, OR NOT.

STAY TUNED...

I WAS RIGHT AGAIN:

JIHADISTS IN LONDON MURDER SOLDIER WITH MACHETE

One of the most violent murders that could be conducted by Islamofascists in the UK took place in broad daylight in London:

Two men wielding a machete and a cleaver hacked a man believed to be a soldier to death on a busy London street Wednesday while yelling "Allahu Akbar," in an attack that was caught on video and left the nation shocked and horrified.

The victim, who some reports said may have been a soldier, was killed at the scene, and the attackers waited at the scene until police arrived and shot both. One attacker, his hands soaked in blood and still holding a machete, delivered an angry jihadist screed as stunned passersby watched, the dead man lying on the street, in the southeast London neighborhood of Woolwich.

"We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you. The only reason we have done this is because Muslims are dying every day," he said in a video clip that was shown on the ITV website. "This British soldier is an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

"I apologize that women have had to witness this today, but in our land our women have to see the same," the killer continued. "You people will never be safe. Remove your government, they don't care about you."

Witnesses said the attackers shouted "Allahu Akbar," Arabic for "God is Great," during the bloody rampage, according to the BBC.

Police said two attackers were shot by authorities and taken to separate London hospitals to be treated for their injuries. Live television images of the scene showed a trail of blood on the pavement, cordoned-off streets and crime scene investigators marking the scene as witnesses recounted the harrowing attack.

"These two guys were crazed. They were just animals," one witness, identified as James, told LBC radio. "They dragged him from the pavement and dumped his body in the middle of the road and left his body there."

Those two savages should have been wiped off the face of the earth for their sadistic crime. This is another result of Britain's fiasco of multiculturalism and diversity. Who knows how much more of this will occur before the government and authorities recognize the horror they're leading to?

WHAT DO THESE SIX THINGS HAVE IN COMMON?

1. three days of rioting in Sweden
2. a beheading on a city street in London
3. a civil war in Syria with war crimes against humanity
4. the Boston marathon bombing - by Chechens
5. the destruction of the Buddhas of Bamiyan
6. women systematically attacked with acid 

What do these six things have in common?

Politicians, bureaucrats and members of the uniformed armed services who can't answer this honestly and correctly, have no business being in any national security position.

IF OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES WANTED THE IRS TO HARASS TEA PARTY GROUPS, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE GONE THROUGH SHULMAN

IF OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES WANTED THE IRS TO HARASS TEA PARTY GROUPS, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE GONE THROUGH SHULMAN, THEY WOULD HAVE GONE THROUGH THE IRS WORKERS UNION.

A BACK CHANNEL DIRECTLY TO IRS AGENTS THEY COULD TRUST.

(THEY COULDN'T TRUST SHULMAN BECAUSE HE WAS A BUSH POLITICAL APPOINTEE.)

COINCIDENTALLY, OBAMA MET WITH THE HEAD OF THIS UNION THE DAY BEFORE THE ABUSE STARTED.

THE COMMITTEE SHOULD SUBPOENA THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNION AND FIND OUT WHAT WAS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETING SHE HAD WITH OBAMA, AND SUBPOENA ALL HER EMAILS AND CORRESPONDENCE.

PERSON OF INTEREST IN BOSTON JIHAD ATTACKS FBI AGENT AND IS GUNNED DOWN

Florida's WESH (via Michelle Malkin) tells that a man who knew Tamerlan Tsarnaev tried to attack an FBI investigator and was shot dead:

According to NBC News, a special agent was interviewing the suspect regarding his connections to bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev and other extremists. The suspect, identified by the FBI as Ibragim Todashev, was originally cooperative, but he was shot after attacking the agent, NBC News reported.

The man studied martial arts and was planning to fly back to Chechnya:

Khusen Taramov says the day that federal agents identified the Tsarnaev brothers as the Boston bombing suspects, FBI agents came to the apartment complex and started questioning a few people of Chechnyan descent. “One day they started questioning us, next day after the bombing, not the bombing, after they found out the bombers were Chechnyans, and they started following us, watching us, they pretty much told the guy from his apartment and they start following us, watching us like everyday,” said Taramov.

Taramov says Todashev met Tamerlan Tsarnaev in Boston and the two had hung out a few times.

Taramov says Todashev met with FBI agents last night and it was supposed to be their last meeting because he was planning to fly back to Chechnya last night. He says the plane ticket was purchased before the Boston bombings but federal agents strongly advised him not to go home.

“He cancelled the tickets because, the FBI had been like, I don’t know, they’ve been pushing him, you know what I’m saying. They’ve been pushing him they say don’t leave; don’t leave so he decided to stay. But we had a feeling, worst case scenario something like that was going to happen. You know what I mean,” said Taramov.

The FBI has not identified the man killed but says the agent was working on a case inside the apartment complex when the shooting happened. “We are currently responding to a shooting incident involving an FBI special agent. The incident occurred in Orlando Florida. The agent encountered the suspect while conducting official duties. The suspect is deceased. We do not have any further details at this time. We expect to have more information later this morning,” said FBI spokesperson Special Agent Dave Couvertier.

Jihadists are the most dangerous and unworthy people to whom martial arts could be taught.

WILL DOMINIQUE VENNER'S POLITICAL SUICIDE IN NOTRE DAME SET OFF A REVOLT LIKE MOHAMMED BOUAZIZI'S DID IN TUNISIA?

I THINK DOMINIQUE VENNER HOPED - AND MARINE LE PEN HOPES - THAT HIS SUICIDE WILL OPEN EYES.

AS MOHAMMED BOUAZIZI'S DID IN TUNISIA.

I DON'T THINK IT WILL.

IF OBAMA HAS ALREADY LOST THESE TWO LIBERALS, THEN HE'S A GONER!

WASH POST: TALKING POINTS WERE CHANGED TO PROTECT STATE DEPARTMENT AND HILLARY AND TO PROTECT CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION OF THE ATTACK

WASH POST: (EXCERPTS)

The information Petraeus ordered up when he returned to his Langley office that morning included far more than the minimalist version that Ruppersberger had requested. It included early classified intelligence assessments of who might be responsible for the attack and an account of prior CIA warnings — information that put Petraeus at odds with the State Department, the FBI and senior officials within his own agency. 

... In an internal agency e-mail at 4:24 p.m. that Friday, he acknowledged that “there is a hurry to get this out.” The talking points should not “conflict with express instructions” from the National Security Council, the FBI and the Justice Department, he wrote, and that “in light of the criminal investigation, we are not to generate statements with assessments as to who did this.” 

... At 6:21 p.m., then-National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor e-mailed the CIA Office of Public Affairs saying that Principal Deputy National Security Adviser Denis McDonough, who has since become the White House chief of staff, had asked that “highlighted portions” of the draft be “coordinated with the State Department in the event that they get inquiries.” 

The highlights indicated that McDonough’s main concern was the information about the prior CIA warnings to U.S. diplomatic missions in North Africa — information that was included at Petraeus’s request. 

... At 7:39 p.m. Friday, Victoria Nuland, then the State Department’s chief spokesperson, e-mailed deputy national security adviser Benjamin J. Rhodes, Jake Sullivan, director of policy planning at State, and CIA spokesman Shawn Turner, among others, with “serious concerns” about including Ansar and mentioning “warnings” in the talking points. 

Nuland said the mention of the warnings “could be abused by members to beat the State Department for not paying attention to Agency warnings.”

THE CORE PROBLEM IS THEREFORE THREE-FOLD:

1  - THE STATE DEPARTMENT WANTED TO PREVENT JUSTIFIABLE CRITICISM OF THEIR FAILURE TO PROTECT THE FACILITY ANF THE AMBASSADOR. (AND BY EXTENSION JUSTIFIABLE CRITICISM OF HILLARY.)

2 - THE CIA WANTED TO PROTECT THE SECRECY OF THEIR MISSION IN BENGHAZI - AND WE STILL DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT THEY WERE (ARE!?) UP TO).

3 - THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION WANTED TO PROSECUTE THE TERRORISTS BEHIND THE ATTACK AS CRIMINALS, AND NOT AS ENEMY COMBATANTS IN A WAR - (AS THEY ARE TREATING OSAMA'S SON-IN-LAW, RIGHT NOW).

I WROTE ON 5/16/13 THAT A FOUNDATIONAL PROBLEM WAS OBAMA'S JURIS-PRUDENTIAL APPROACH TO THE ENEMY:

THE MAJOR REASON THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION GIVES FOR SCRUBBING REFERENCES TO AL QAEDA AFFILIATES OUT OF THE TALKING POINTS WAS THAT THEY "DIDN'T WANT TO PREJUDICE THE FBI INVESTIGATION." 

THE ONLY REASON AN FBI INVESTIGATION IS IMPORTANT TO THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION IS BECAUSE OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES VIEW ISLAMO-TERROR AS A CRIMINAL ACT, AND NOT AS AN ACT OF WAR - EVEN WHEN IT KILLS OUR AMBASSADOR AND HIS AIDES! 

THIS IS A FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG POLICY. 

AND THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION'S FAILURE TO PREVENT THE BENGHAZI ATTACK, OR TO COUNTER-ATTACK WHILE IT WAS ON-GOING, AND THEIR FAILURE TO COUNTER-ATTACK TO THIS DAY PROVES IT IS A WRONG POLICY AND A BAD POLICY AND AN INEFFECTIVE POLICY 

AL QAEDA AND ITS AFFILIATES ARE NOT CRIMINAL ENTERPRISES.
THEY ARE PARAMILITARY GROUPS AT WAR WITH US.
WE SHOULD FIGHT BACK ACCORDINGLY.

NOT WITH THE FBI.

NOT WITH INDICTMENTS.

BUT KINETICALLY, WITH ANY AND ALL WEAPONS THAT WILL ERADICATE THE ENEMY.WE SHOULD FIGHT BACK ACCORDINGLY.

OBAMA'S APPROACH TO TH GLOBAL WAR AGAINST JIHADISM HAS BEEN A FAILURE: ISLAMISTS ARE GAINING IN AFGHANISTAN  IRAQ, SYRIA, LIBYA, AND OF COURSE EGYPT. AND MORE US SOLDIERS HAVE BEEN KILLED UNDER OBAMA THAN WERE KILLED UNDER BUSH'S 8 YEARS. AND WE HAVE HAD MORE ATTACKS HER AT HOME.

WE ARE LESS SAFE AND WE ARE LOSING.

WE NEED TO END THESE POLICIES.

AND THE SOONER THE BETTER.

WHAT OBAMA'S HARASSMENT OF CBSNEWS REPORTER ATTKISSON AND FOXNEWS REPORTER ROSEN TELL US ABOUT OBAMA

LIKE OTHER TYRANTS AND WOULD BE TYRANTS, OBAMA LIKES THE STATE RUN MEDIA AND HAS BEEN WAGING A WAR ON THE FREE PRESS.

OBAMA HAS BEEN MORE AGGRESSIVELY ATTACKING HIS DOMESTIC POLITICAL OPPONENTS, THAN HE HAS JIHADISTS - WHO HE HAS DIRECTLY AIDED AND SUBSIDIZED IN EGYPT, LIBYA AND SYRIA.

THINK ABOUT THAT.

WHOSE EFFIN' SIDE IS HE ON?

"... the Obama administration is showing that it cannot be trusted with the basic functions of government..."

"Add up all the recent scandals and the message is clear: the Obama administration is showing that it cannot be trusted with the basic functions of government..."

USE THE LINK. NOW.

WHO ARE THE REAL REVOLUTIONARIES AND WHO ARE THE REAL REACTIONARIES?

The only real revolution was the American Revolution because it replaced a tyranny with a republic that guaranteed individual liberty and a limited government.

All other revolutions merely replaced one ruling class with another.

Marx was honest when he called it what it was when he called it "the dictatorship of he proletariat."

So, people who support socialism - which reduces individual liberty and weakens limited government - are nor revolutionary; they are reactionaries.

Because their policies depend on a big government with nearly unlimited power to tax and spend and run up debt, supporters of Keynesian policies are also really reactionaries.

(Besides: Keynesian policies have never worked; they did not end the depression; they prolonged it.)

The traditional political spectrum which portrays the extreme left as communist and the extreme right as fascist is a deliberate but of propaganda of the left - one promulgated when Stalin and Hitler broke their pact and Stalin became our ally in WW2. The leftists in the West needed a way to distance themselves from Hitler and Mussolini.

There is ample proof that it is a lie. First, Mussolini and Hitler called themselves socialists and their policies put the state - in league with corporations and unions - above the individual. Secomd, the traditional political spectrum is illogical: if the extreme left is communists and the extreme right is fascist, then where do you put anarchists? There is no logical place for them. An intellectually honest political spectrum puts the communists and fascists and nazis all on the extreme left and anarchists in the extreme right.

Keynesian liberals are statists with more  in common with the REACTIONARIES OF THE LEFT - Stalin and Hitler and Mussolini -  than they have in common with the REAL REVOLUTIONARIES who fought against tyranny and for liberty and limited government - Washington, Jefferson, JFK or Reagan.

And like Stalin and Hitler and Mussolini, their polices fail to deliver the goods and are destined for the cesspool of history. They always fail because prosperity is a by-product of liberty - ans when you restrict liberty you diminish prosperity. And you cannot create prosperity by printing money.

That's why OBAMANOMICS and OBAMACARE will fail.

Rightly so. And for the good of all.

IT IS HAPPENING HERE: the IRS scandal is the worst in American history

Ace:  

Bookworm: The IRS Scandal is the Worst Political Scandal in American History 

And she makes a good case that it is. I can't think of any other scandal where the government actually engaged in widespread extra-legal stifling of dissent on ideological grounds. 

All of the other scandals, going back to Andrew Johnson's post-Civil War scandals, Warren G. Harding's 1920s Teapot Dome scandal, Nixon's Watergate, Reagan's Iran-Contra, and Clinton's Oval Office sexcapades have actually been narrowly focused acts of cronyism, garden-variety political chicanery, or personal failings. It's been insider stuff. 

The IRS scandal, by contrast, is a direct attack on the American people. 

Right now, Progressives throughout America are pretending that this scandal doesn't matter: "Obama wasn't involved." "Tea Partiers had it coming because they're all corrupt." "Obama would have won the election anyway." "It was just a coincidence that the only groups that had their applications scrutinized, sometimes for years, were politically conservative. It means nothing that, when one group changed its name to sound Progressive, its application was approved in only three weeks." "This is just a bureaucratic snafu." "It's a few rogue agents in Ohio." 

And whenever you see illegal thuggery, be sure and look for the union label. No doubt the NTEU's 94% donation rate to Democrats is completely irrelevant to how they would treat conservatives as IRS employees.

IT IS HAPPENING HERE; OBAMA IS TURNING THE US GOVERNMENT AGAINST US CITIZENS.

 HE MUST BE IMPEACHED. EVEN TRIED FOR TREASON.

 AND IF CONVICTED...

WHEN DID JARRETT FIND OUT ABOUT THE IRS SCANDAL?

White House press secretary Jay Carney revealed during Monday's briefing that in addition to White House counsel Kathy Ruemmler, White House chief of staff Denis McDonough "and other members of the senior staff" were made aware of the Treasury inspector general's report on the IRS before its release and the president was not.Ruemmler did not receive a draft of the report but was informed of its contents on April 24, and she informed McDonough and other staff—whom Carney declined to identify. 

WAS JARRETT INFORMED AT THAT TIME? IF NOT, WHEN WAS SHE TOLD?

IT WOULD MAKE SENSE FOR THEM TO HAVE TOLD HER.

BUT... THEN IT WOULD HAVE MADE SENSE FOR HER TO TELL HER BOSS AND FRIEND THE PRESIDENT.

PERHAPS SHE WAS TOLD, AND THEY'RE TRYING TO KEEP THAT A SECRET BECAUSE IF SHE KNEW IT WOULD MAKE IT VERY VERY HARD TO BELIEVE THAT OBAMA DIDN'T.

AND ANOTHER  THING:

THIS MEANS PFEIFFER LIED ON SUNDAY OR WAS DELIBERATELY KEPT IN THE DARK, AND SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SENT OUT WITHOUT BEING FULLY BRIEFED.

WHICH WAS THEIR M.O. ON BENGHAZI: SEND OUT THE CLOWNS:

"But what I'm saying to you is that was just PR," Schieffer said. "That was just a PR plan to send out somebody who didn't know anything about what had happened. Why did you do that? Why didn't the secretary of state come and tell us what they knew and if he knew nothing say, 'We don't know yet?' Why didn't the White House Chief of Staff come out? I mean I would, and I mean this as no disrespect to you, why are you here today? Why isn't the White House Chief of Staff here to tell us what happened?"

I think Alice Fredenham has talent, GREAT talent

Daily Mail:

Shaking with nerves and wiping away tears, only to reveal a beautiful voice... Alice Fredenham melted everyone’s hearts on Britain’s Got Talent last week. But viewers who watch tonight’s episode of The Voice will see a rather different side to the 28-year-old singer. During her audition, filmed in December, she shows no sign of her crippling stage fright, instead stepping out confidently in a low-cut top and belting out her song.

Shy and retiring: Singer Alice Fredenham is seen looking shy on last week's Britain's Got Talent - but fans are now accusing her of faking her stage fright after it's revealed she'll be on Saturday's The Voice looking confident in a low cut top. 

ALICE FREDENHAM ON BGT (L) AND ON THE VOICE (R)

The startling difference between the performances has prompted accusations that she was faking her nerves. Some viewers claimed her apparent shyness on Britain’s Got Talent, filmed three months after her audition for The Voice, was nothing more than a cynical ploy to win votes. It certainly won over the panel on the ITV show, with Simon Cowell and his fellow judges expressing their admiration as Miss Fredenham tearfully explained her battle to overcome crippling stage-fright.... 

...However, she failed to impress coaches Jessie J, Tom Jones, Danny O’Donoghue and Will.i.am, who described her performance as ‘a bit safe’. Yesterday, a source on the BBC show said: ‘We were surprised when we saw Alice’s appearance on Britain’s Got Talent. ‘All the time she was on The Voice she was bubbly and confident. She didn’t seem nervous at all. It was a surprise to see her looking so demure. It is almost as if she has had a make-under.’ 

However, sources on Britain’s Got Talent denied she had been given styling tips by ITV production staff and claimed her confidence had been knocked by her appearance on The Voice.

I THINK SHE'S GREAT. STAY TUNED...

PREDICTION: OBAMA WILL BE IMPEACHED OR WILL RESIGN... AND SOONER THAN YOU THINK!

Here's why:

Ambassador Stevens was not just a State Department employee; he was a major CIA asset... and Obama let him die.

That might be okay for Obama and Biden and Petraeus and Panetta and Hillary and Brennan and Donilon and and all the other POLITICAL APPOINTEES at the top. They think they had their reasons.

But for the men and women in the field, it's UNFORGIVABLE.

And the men and women in the CIA and in the State Department are going  to force Obama to resign, the way FBI assistant director Mark Felt - aka DEEP THROAT - got Nixon: BY LEAKING.

DRIP. DRIP. DRIP...

That's why the Obama White House has announced the AP thing and the indictment of Rosen of FOX:

To send a message to the media and potential Whistle-blowers:

"If you publish what WHISTLE-BLOWERS tell you them we will throw you in jail and the whistle-blower, too."

They did it to a FAST & FURIOUS whistleblower.

Now they're trying to do it to everyone else.

Chavez and Castro and Stalin did the same.

IT MUST NOT STAND. And I don't think it will.

The whistle-blowers will leak their news slowly until there's a Special Prosecutor or impeachment proceedings and Obama cries uncle.

Just you wait and see, I think our national nightmare will be over before Labor Day.

Maybe a little longer if Holder resigns and the new USAG appoints a SP.

Stay tuned...

UPDATE:

THE BLAZE:

Citing a “CIA source,” Curl claimed via his official Twitter account that the Fox News scandal was the “4th Shoe” and the White House is sitting on “something” that has top White House aides “terrified."

TheBlaze will continue to monitor this story for additional details.

The key phrase is: "Citing a CIA source".

THE IRS SCANDAL IS SERIOUS ENOUGH TO MAKE OBAMA THE MOST OUTRAGED PERSON IN AMERICA... but not a big enough deal for his Chief legal Counsel to tell him about it!?!?

• TO MAKE OBAMA THE MOST OUTRAGED PERSON IN AMERICA... 
• (but not a big enough deal for his Chief legal Counsel to tell him about it!?!?

Carney on IRS: Nobody's More Outraged than Obama:

"I mean, nobody's been more outraged by the reported conduct here than the president of the United States," said Carney

VIDEO:




BUT IT WAS NOT A BIG ENOUGH DEAL FOR ANYONE TO TELL HIM ABOUT IT!?!?!??!

Senior White House staff knew of the ongoing investigation into the IRS's targeting of conservative groups ahead of the release of a report from a Treasury Department inspector general, White House press secretary Jay Carney said Monday, but held off on informing the president to wait for a final report. With the knowledge of an investigation, the White House held to a "cardinal rule" that it should not get involved in an external investigation, Carney said during his daily briefing. "No one in this building intervened in an ongoing independent investigation or did anything that could be seen as intervening," he said. 

"To the chagrin of some who would have liked us to get more in front of this, we appropriately waited," Carney later added.
(POLITICO Junkies: Obama, scandal & damage control)
White House counsel Kathy Ruemmler was informed of the IG's audit on April 24, Carney said, and was told that the audit was nearing its conclusion and that a report would be forthcoming indicating that several IRS employees were involved in targeting groups with "tea party" and "patriot" in their names for additional scrutiny. ...  

... Ruemmler did inform White House chief of staff Denis McDonough's office of the investigation, Carney said, and other senior staff were also told of the report. 

SO... THE CHIEF WHITE HOUSE LAWYER KNEW AND THE WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF, BUT THEY DIDN'T TELL THE PRESIDENT!?!?

IF THIS IS TRUE, THEN THEY SHOULD RESIGN.

IF IT'S NOT TRUE - AND IF OBAMA KNEW, THEN HE SHOULD RESIGN.

DR. YEHUDA DAVID GLAD THAT REPORT REFUTING AL-DURA HOAX PUBLISHED

Dr. Yehuda David, who was sued by the father of Mohammed al-Dura for letting everyone know he'd given him medical treatment for which he was only thanked with spite, is satisfied with the Israeli government's report confirming that the video was a hoax:

Dr. Yehuda David, who was sued for libel by the father of Muhammad al-Dura – and eventually won his case – expressed great satisfaction at the issuing of a report by a special report by a government panel that revisited the infamous incident, in which IDF soldiers were accused of killing the 12 year old Arab boy at the start of the second intifada. The committee determined that not only were the allegations – and a report by French television purporting to show IDF soldiers shooting and killing the boy – a lie, but that the al-Dura is not even dead.

According to David, the whole incident stinks of a coverup – and the evidence that shows that not only was al-Dura not killed, but that the entire story was a hoax, perpetrated with the assistance of a French television station, is there for all to see. [...]

David, a physician at Tel Hashomer hospital near Tel Aviv, entered the al-Dura fray on December 13, 2007 when he told Israel's Channel 10 that he had treated Jamal in 1994 for knife and axe wounds to his arms and legs sustained during an Arab gang attack. David said the scars Jamal claimed as bullet wounds from the 2000 incident were actually scars from a tendon repair operation that David performed in 1994, leading Jamal to sue him for libel. He was initially convicted of a charge, but that decision was overturned by the French Supreme Court in February 2012. The decision was widely seen as a national victory for Israel.

The new report also questions whether or not the younger al-Dura was even killed. The fact that he was still alive at the end of the French television video, after the gunfire had stopped, could mean that the boy is alive even now. “Since this issue was first raised there have been many contradictions and cold trails, based on the story the French television company told. There are many unanswered questions about many aspects of this incident,” the committee said.

According to David, the answer to this question is clear, and is supported by evidence. “We know that a child whose name is Mohammed al-Dura was taken to Shifa Hospital in Gaza at 9 AM,” David told Arutz Sheva, relying on publicly released information. “We know that the event in which it was claimed that the child was killed actually only began at 3 in the afternoon. So how is it possible that there was a dead child at 9 AM, and they want us to believe that it is the same child who was shot by Israeli soldiers at 3:00?”

So who was the child in the famous video? Most likely a brother of Mohammed, David said. There is a great deal of evidence to suggest this already, David said: According to the results of an investigation by a German group, for example, the shape of the skull of the buried child was different than the shape of the skull of the child seen in the video. The real identity of the child could be confirmed by disinterring him. David is willing to bet that the child will turn out to be the “real” Mohammed al-Dura, the one who died in Shifa Hospital in the morning, as opposed to the “fake” one – the one seen in the video, who is alive and well.

David said that it was regrettable that it had taken the state so long to take a definitive stance on the hoax. “Now we know that Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government acknowledge the truth – that Jamal al-Dura is a liar, and that all the information supplied by France 2 during the event on Septerm 30, 2000, is a hoax. This has caused a tremendous sacrifice of Israeli lives, because it was the beginning of the second intifada, which led to the loss of 2,500 Israeli lives,” he said, including the victims of the 2012 attack by a Muslim fanatic on a Jewish school in Toulouse, France, who specifically said he was “avenging” the death of al-Dura.

Could it be? A sibling was seen in the video?

The reason it took so long can also be blamed on Ehud Olmert, who made no effort on his part to combat this when he was prime minister. Enderlin owes an apology for his cowardly suits against Phillipe Karsenty and failing to admit he's capable of making mistakes, and should be thrown out of journalism altogether.

Update: Shurat HaDin is calling for Enderlin's press credentials to be revoked:

"Criminal charges should be filed, and Charles Enderlin should never be allowed to practice journalism in Israel again,” asserted Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, director of Shurat HaDin Israel Law Center, in response to a report released Sunday by the Israeli government, which found France 2's claims that IDF troops killed Mohammed al-Dura in 2000 as baseless.

“The fact the al-Dura story has turned out to be a hoax should cause us to take action against those who invented and spread this staged fable. Israel's Government Press Office should also revoke France 2's credentials," she said. [...]

"The French network ignited a still-burning torch of hatred against Israel, with images of al-Dura still being presented in anti-Israel protests in Iran, the Arab world and in Western Europe. Those who are responsible must bear the consequences of their actions in order to avoid the repetition of incidents like this and, moreover, to stop this blood libel once and for all," she added.

Those responsible must take it and confess to what they knew, and acknowledge their capability of making mistakes.

ARAB TOWN NEAR JERUSALEM FLIES NAZI FLAG

A most obscene spectacle spotted in Gush Etzion:

Hundreds of residents of Gush Etzion, south of Jerusalem, were astounded Monday morning to see an oversized Nazi flag flying next to a mosque in the Arab town of Beit Omar.

The residents notified the IDF.

A resident, Uri Arnon, told the Tazpit News Agency: "I felt we were going back 75 years, losing our hold on the land. The Arabs no longer feel the need to hide their murderous tendencies, announcing out loud that they wish to annihilate us."

An IDF spokesman said that the flag was hung on an electrical line, and that they were waiting to professionals to come and remove it.

No doubt they were showing their support for Haj-Amin el-Husseini, the mufti who collaborated with the nazis during WW2.

JUST LIKE THERE'S CONVERTS TO ISLAM IN UK, THERE'S ALSO APOSTATES

The New Statesman's written about something that may be overlooked in any society: the apostates and how many are there?

Islam is often perceived as a religion antithetical to British, secular values. But between 2001-2011, more than 100,000 British people converted to Islam. This may come as a surprise, especially considering the virulent climate of Islamophobia supposedly pervading the country in the shadow of 9/11. Yet, while Muslims may rejoice at the news of many British people flocking to Islam, little is known about the large proportion of converts who later become apostates.

“Many converts leave the faith. We don't have exact statistics but some stats say 50 per cent will leave within a few years,” says Usama Hasan, a part-time Imam and a senior researcher at the counter extremism think-tank, the Quilliam Foundation.

The internet, in particular, Twitter, provides ex-Muslims, often with pseudonymous accounts, a safe haven to challenge, criticise and mock Islam. The Council of Ex-Muslims of Britain (CEMB), founded six years ago, was set up by a group of non-believers and acts as a community for those who have renounced their faith.

There are, of course, a multitude of reasons why someone might become an apostate after converting. Many British women convert when marrying a Muslim man, but, when the relationship ends, they sometimes leave the faith. (The same rarely happens in reverse, as the consensus of scholars believes a Muslim woman marrying a non-Muslim man is against the Sharia.) Some converts don’t receive the community support upon entering the faith. While others can be referred to as “drifters”: they experiment with different lifestyles. However, many ex-Muslims cite bad experiences with Muslims in their stories of how they came to renounce the faith.

More of which can be read in the article. This is a bright spot in a sea of sadness that is the UK these days. And if converts could leave in the UK, the same doubtlessly holds true in many other parts of the world. Unfortunately, there's likely still quite a few converts who remain there, and it wouldn't surprise me if they turned out to be the ones we need to be most wary of.

OMFG!: SMOKING GUN ON OBAMA AND IRS!

DETAILS HERE.

OUR NATIONAL NIGHTMARE WILL SOON BE OVER.

STILL THE NUMBER ONE QUESTION FOR OBAMA AND HILLARY AND HOLDER: "WHAT DID YOU KNOW AND WHEN DID YOU KNOW IT?"

AND THAT APPLIES TO EACH SCANDAL:

• AP, 
• IRS, 
• EPA, 
• THE BENGHAZI ATTACK - 
• AND THE BENGHAZI TALKING POINTS,
• THE GM DEALERSHIP CLOSINGS,
• THE GREEN ECONOMY LOANS TO COMPANIES WERE OWNED BY CONTRIBUTORS AND THAT QUICKLY "FAILED",
• AND FAST & FURIOUS.

QUIET AN EFFIN' LIST!

MORE PROOF CHINA IS NOT MERELY AN ADVERSARY, BUT AN ENEMY...

... AND ONE WE SHOULD NOT DEPEND ON FOR OUR SECURITY - AS WE SEEM TO WHENEVER CHINA'S CLIENT NORTH KOREA ACTS UP.

NORTH KOREA'S TYRANT CAN;T TAKE A CRAP WITHOUT CHINA'S APPROVAL.

AND REPEAT: CHINA CANNOT BE TRUSTED:

Three months after hackers working for a cyberunit of China’s People’s Liberation Army went silent amid evidence that they had stolen data from scores of American companies and government agencies, they appear to have resumed their attacks  using different techniques, according to computer industry security experts and American officials. 

The Obama administration had bet that “naming and shaming” the groups, first in industry reports and then in the Pentagon’s own detailed survey of Chinese military capabilities, might prompt China’s new leadership to crack down on the military’s highly organized team of hackers — or at least urge them to become more subtle. 

But Unit 61398, whose well-guarded 12-story white headquarters on the edges of Shanghai became the symbol of Chinese cyberpower, is back in business, according to American officials and security companies.

OBAMA AND HILLARY AND KERRY HAVE BEEN AS EFFECTIVE IN DEALING WITH CHINA AS THEY HAVE BEEN IN DEALING WITH TH MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD AND THE ISLAMISTS.

IOW: THEY HAVE APPEASED THEM AND ENABLED THEM.

OBAMA'S FAILURE TO COUNTER CHINA AND GLOBAL JIHAD ARE ACTUALLY MORE SERIOUS BLOWS TO THE USA THAN THE IRS OR AP SCANDALS.

I HOPE WE SURVIVE UNTIL THE NEXT ELECTION SO WE CAN PUT AN END TO OBAMA'S ABILITY TO HURT THE USA AND THE WEST.

ISRAELI COMMITTEE CONFIRMS AL-DURA WAS ALIVE AT THE END OF FALSE VIDEO

The Israeli government set up a committee to investigate the al-Dura hoax, and they verify:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu received a government report Saturday, presenting the findings of a special governmental inquiry committee into the death of Muhammad al-Dura during the al-Aqsa Intifada. The report focuses on the controversial September 2000 France 2 broadcast – in which the boy is seen hiding behind his father while the two were under IDF gunfire – and conclude that al-Dura was still alive at the end of the video.

According to the committee findings, in contrary to what had been published before, there was no evidence that the boy or his father were injured at the time the video was shot, thereby noting there was reasonable doubt regarding IDF's responsibility to the boy's death.

Upon receiving the committee's findings, Netanyahu said that "focusing on this incident is important as it slandered Israel and serves as an example for the delegitimization Israel constantly faces.

"There is only one way to fight lies," the prime minister concluded, "and that is with the truth."

According to the committee, France 2 framed the story as if at the time of its broadcast there was concrete evidence supporting the claim that the boy had died as a result of IDF gunfire, despite the fact that at the time, the responsibility for Al-Dura's death was still disputed, thus putting into question the entire credibility of the news report.

The committee, formed in 2012, was first headed by now Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon, and concluded its inquiry recently under the chairmanship of Yuval Steinitz.

Steinitz also commented on the report saying "This was a blood-libel against Israel. The French report was simply false."

If there's anyone who predictably won't accept the results of the investigation, it's one of the relatives, who's just too consumed by his own bigotry. INN suggests it's possible that al-Dura is still alive, and if he was killed, we have to wonder if he was eaten by his own, turning him into a sacrifice so that the hoax wouldn't be found out so easily.

The Times of Israel says:

“Contrary to the report’s claim that the boy was killed, the committee’s review of the raw footage showed that in the final scenes, which were not broadcast by France 2, the boy is seen to be alive,” the Ministry of International Affairs and Strategy report stated regarding the television report.

Charles Enderlin and France 2 would do well to climb off their high horse and stop acting like they never have to say they're sorry. They'd do a lot better to admit they're capable of making mistakes, and Enderlin should have his press pass here revoked.
