WHY IS ISLAM SO DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND???????

A suicidal muderer killed 130 in Iraq in honor of one of their holidays by blowing up himself and his truck in a crowded marketplace.

Lib'n leftie apologists and appeasers promptly called the mass murderer a misunderstander of islam. As they call the Chattanooga murderer.

There have been more than 21,000 terrorist attacks since 9/11 done in the name of islam. Thousands murdered. Thousands maimed.

Libs'n lefties all call all these perps misunderstanders of islam.

The libs'n lefties call islam a religion of peace, and tell us not to worry and learn to love the koran.

Well, I don't think the libs'n lefties know islam better than the radicals. And I don't think islam is so difficult to understand.

In fact, if the terrorists who committed these attacks misunderstood islam, then so did Mohamed PBUH, (because they are emulating him) - and if he did, then islam is a sham because he invented it.

The truth is that the islamoterrorists are true muslims living and killing as their proohet did. The truth is we are in a global, epochal religious war.

The sooner we understand that, the better. Because to fight back effectively,  we need to take aim at the real enemy.

Our current president is either delusional about islam and who are our true allies, or on their side.

I pray we survive until we can elect a potus who will defend us from enemies foreign and domestic.

THAT'S ALL HE CAN SAY ABOUT THE CHATTANOOGA JIHAD ATTACK?

The awful Ron Marz is exploiting the horrible tragedy in Tennessee this week for more superficial critiques of firearms:

Tragic loss of life in Chattanooga. Here's a prediction: "more guns" will be the answer from a number of people.

— Ron Marz (@ronmarz) July 16, 2015

See? "More guns" immediately. https://t.co/bgCKRjJPUF

— Ron Marz (@ronmarz) July 16, 2015

Notice for starters how he doesn't actually take the time to condemn the jihadist himself and the ISIS terrorists who were supporting him. Nor does he offer his condolences to the families of the victims, a 5th who tragically died earlier today. Then, notice how he apparently sees nothing wrong with army officials not being allowed to carry weapons. Soon, I guess police shouldn't be allowed to carry them either? That's been the case in Britain at times, and it did lead to some terrible losses.

He also shows neither interest nor concern about the killer's ideological upbringing, and again, all he can think of doing is blabbering about gun control. Yeah, keep it up, young master Marz. It's always weapons alone that are the problem, and never education or ideology.

Interestingly, Marz is the only comics writer I could find who had anything to say about the attack in Tennessee. Almost all others were strangely quiet. But maybe that's a good thing, because they may have realized they could screw up badly, as Marz did with his dreadful comments.

RELIAPUNDIT ADDS :

MARZ, 1941:

'Tragic loss of life in Pearl Harbor,  Bet you FDR'S reaction will be more guns."

IF CURRENT MUSLIM IMMIGRATION TRENDS CONTINUE, THE USA WILL AS ISLAMIFIED AS BADLY AS EUROPE IS NOW DURING THE NEXT DECADE

NUMBERS HERE.

IF YOU ADD TO THIS THE NUMBER OF ILLEGALS THE LEFT INTENDS TO ALLOW TO VOTE, AND THE RELEASED FELONS THEY INTEND TO ALLOW TO VOTE,  AND ADD THIS TO THE PERCENTAGE OF BLACKS AND HISPANICS AND WHITES THEY CURRENTLY GET (AND THE VOTER FRAUD THEY'VE COME TO BE ABLE TO RELY ON), THEN THIS TOTAL EQUALS A MAJORITY OF THE ELECTORATE, AND ENOUGH TO KEEP THE LEFTIST MACHINE IN POWER IN PERPETUITY.

IF WE WANT TO SAVE THE USA,
AND KEEP IT FROM BECOMING ANOTHER VENEZUELA
OR TURKEY,
THEN WE MUST ACT NOW

1. TO DRAMATICALLY REDUCE OR HALT MUSLIM IMMIGRATION 
2. AND HALT ALL ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION 
3. AND PERMANENTLY BAN FELONS FROM EVER VOTING IN FEDERAL ELECTIONS.

IF WE FAIL TO DO THESE THINGS, THEN WE HAVE SURRENDERED TO THE ENEMY AT HOME AND ABROAD.

WHAT ABOUT THE AMERICANS HELD HOSTAGE IN IRAN?

Give Major Garret at CBS some credit for asking Obama about the 4 Americans held captive in Iran, and why they aren't accounted for in this so-called deal (Hat tip: Diana West):

Transcription of exchange between CBS News Chief White House Correspondent Major Garrett and President Obama over Iranian hostages.

Major Garrett: As you well know, there are four Americans in Iran - three held on trumped up charges according to your administration, one, whereabouts unknown. Can you tell the country, sir, why you are content, with all of the fanfare around this [nuclear] deal, to leave the conscience of this nation, the strength of this nation, unaccounted for, in relation to these four Americans?

Indeed, how come they don't seem to be a prime concern? Obama's answer is like this:

And last week, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said under no circumstances should there be any relief for Iran in terms of ballistic missiles or conventional weapons. It was perceived that that was a last-minute capitulation in these negotiations, making the Pentagon feel you've left the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff hung out to dry. Could you comment?

President Obama: I've got to give you credit, Major, for how you craft those questions. The notion that I am content, as I celebrate with American citizens languishing in Iranian jails - Major, that's nonsense. And you should know better. I've met with the families of some of those folks. Nobody's content, and our diplomats and our teams are working diligently to try to get them out.

Now, if the question is why we did not tie the negotiations to their release, think about the logic that that creates. Suddenly, Iran realizes, you know what, maybe we can get additional concessions out of the Americans by holding these individuals - makes it much more difficult for us to walk away if Iran somehow thinks that a nuclear deal is dependent in some fashion on the nuclear deal. And by the way, if we had walked away from the nuclear deal, we'd still be pushing just as hard to get these folks out. That's why those issues are not connected, but we are working every single day to try to get them out and won't stop until they're out and rejoined with their families.

I can't seem to understand anything he says. If they really wanted to free the hostages, they'd be demanding Iran release them and ensure they make it across the borders safely, and only afterwards give them any deal. But apparently, that's not what was done, and it only makes the whole pact look all the more awful as it truly is.

WAS SENATOR CORKER, THE FORMER MAYOR OF CHATTANOOGA, SUPPOSED TO GET A MESSAGE FROM THE ATTACK?

Just days after Iran gets a sweetheart deal from Obama, there's an islamoterror attack in the hometown of the GOP Senator with the most power to defeat the deal in the Senate.

COINCIDENCE? Maybe.  I saw him on TV after the presser and he looked VERY shaken.

HMMM... do you remember that the Democrat Senator who is the former chairman on the Foreign Realtions Commitee and former ranking member - Bob Menendez - who was a staunch critic of both this deal and Obama's Cuba policy - was conveniently and coincidentally indicted by Obama's DOJ.

WAS THAT ALSO A COINCIDENCE?

Just asking... seems like there sure are a lot of coincidences.

HOW PSEUDO RABBIS CONSPIRED TO BELITTLE THE TEMPLE MOUNT

Batya Medad went to a conference by Tsohar with a panel discussion between Yehuda Glick and rabbi Joel Bin-Nun about the Temple Mount. And the former brought up an interesting part about alleged rabbis in today's world:

Yehuda Glick brought up the terrible situation in which Torah observant (aka Orthodox and Chareidi) rabbis have participated in the conspiracy to brainwash the Jewish People into believing that the Kotel hamaaravi, the Western Wall is the holiest place for the Jewish People, and that the Temple Mount is holiest for Islam.

IDF soldiers are now brought up to tour the Temple Mount and are only shown it from a Muslim perspective.

At the end of the program, one of the audience asked Glick how it could be that he is accusing prominent rabbis, including Rav Tzvi Yehuda Kook, ZaTza"L, of being wrong.

And Glick answered exactly the way my mind was going. He reminded the audience of how many of the great European rabbis prior to World War Two, when the Nazis were taking over, had told their congregations to stay put. And before then, with the beginning of the Zionist movement, most rabbis had declared it evil and told their followers not to join. Glick also brought up an important point, that the earlier Rav Kook, ZaTza"L, had been in the minority among rabbis and had been condemned for his stands re:Zionism and the Land of Israel. Davka, Tzohar follows the Jewish teachings of Rav Kook, so they shouldn't be afraid to be in the minority.

He's right, and as mentioned before, Satmar's first overlord betrayed his congregation while saving his own skin. The rabbis of the early 20th century could easily be called anti-Israel if they didn't care about it. Perhaps worse still is how they didn't seem particularly worried about Europe's own situations and had no interest in playing their own part trying to better it.

That could explain why they seem to view Islam as legitimate and do nothing to object to its continuation, and why they apparently seem intent on rewriting history to act as though Islam always had a spot on the Temple Mount. Rabbi Kook, one man of mostly Haredi background who had common sense and respect for history, has long been shunned by modern Haredi isolationists as worthless.

But it's those who keep calling against Judaist activity on the Temple Mount and those who turn a blind eye to Islamofascism who're the truly unworthy of representing Judaism.

G. WILLOW WILSON SUGARCOATS IRAN

The propagandist now working for Marvel has come out in favor of Iran, completely whitewashing their autocracy:

This is huge. Hopefully a sign of impending political sanity. http://t.co/KmRBLnz3jR #IranDeal

— G. Willow Wilson (@GWillowWilson) July 14, 2015

I visited Iran in 2004; it's a GORGEOUS, friendly, well-educated country. Go visit.

— G. Willow Wilson (@GWillowWilson) July 14, 2015

And when somebody asks if US citizens can get tourist visas, she says:

Yes they can! Getting a tourist visa takes a bit of time, but generally not a hassle. https://t.co/oXXEcPpEvF

— G. Willow Wilson (@GWillowWilson) July 14, 2015

Who would want to visit a country ruled by sharia? A country where women have no rights and where dissidents with the regime were subjected to torture and rape? Betty Mahmoody was very lucky she managed to flee with her daughter Mahtob from that hellhole back at the time the ayatollah was viciously running the country. Jimmy Carter sure caused a lot of disaster when he turned his back on the country in 1979 and allowed the shah to be overthrown by the much worse ayatollah Khomeini.

Among the various other issues Wilson's oblivious to include Americans held hostage in Iran, who apparently aren't part of the deal made. No amount of green lawns and flower gardens will conceal how the Islamic mindset dominating the country makes it a truly awful place to be. Wilson's sugarcoating of those facts is shameful. Why would any sane American want to get a tourist visa to a country where they could be imperiled just for thinking negatively about the autocracy?

Wolf Blitzer made Susan Rice look silly on the faustian deal. Wilson looks silly just by acting ignorant.

MARZ SEES NOTHING WRONG WITH THE IRAN DEAL

Ron Marz has a very weak view of the Iran deal, as he notes with the following:

#PlutoFlyby and #IranDeal. Tuesday is shaping up pretty okay, huh?

— Ron Marz (@ronmarz) July 14, 2015

As expected, all this incompetent man can do is act like an ostrich. It does nothing to prevent Iran from continuing with the nuclear manufacturing, and according to this polling, 74% of Israelis don't think the deal will stop Iran's evil positions either. David Weinberg said that:

Ahead of the accord reached between the P5+1 and Iran Tuesday, The New York Times reported that it was expected to be a "political agreement," not a "legally binding treaty."

And I've got a feeling even Marz realizes that. Former major-general Yaakov Amidror also says it simply makes Iran stronger, because sanctions will be lifted, and the Iranian autocracy wasn't required to stop its missile building.

Since we're on the subject, Marz also tweeted:

August 28th, come party with us for Jack Kirby's Birthday, to benefit @heroinitiative! https://t.co/Jf9b0ATdfI pic.twitter.com/thZCY5KrT5

— Ron Marz (@ronmarz) July 14, 2015

It sure is mysterious how somebody taking such a weak, naive view of deals made with autocracies has no problem with a guy like Kirby who's famous for fighting them during WW2.

MINNESOTA NATIONAL GUARDSWOMAN EXPERIENCED DISCRIMINATION

A fishy incident occurred in Minnesota:

A spokesperson for SuperAmerica says the company is calling an alleged incident of discrimination at a store location in Minneapolis, near the Bloomington border, a "misunderstanding."

A member of the military is accusing employees at the SA on Post Road of denying her service on Sunday, reportedly because her uniform was offensive to taxi drivers who regularly do business there.

The story blew up on social media Tuesday, with many expressing outrage at the allegations. The incident was first reported Sunday afternoon by Dave Boucha, on his Facebook page. Boucha has since deleted his original post.

KARE 11 reached out to SuperAmerica Tuesday afternoon, and at that time a spokesperson told the station that they will investigate the allegations thoroughly. That spokesperson also said training on discrimination will be mandatory for all employees at that location.

Could those unnamed taxi drivers be Muslims? It's possible, recalling that there were cases of Muslim cabbies in Minnesota who refused service to blind riders with seeing eye dogs. Now they're turning their petty hostilities against army personnel too. The store staff who abetted their disgraceful attitudes should be ashamed of themselves.

HILLARY WILL DROP OUT, AND KERRY OR BIDEN WILL JUMP IN AND WIN THE NOMINATION

Bernie, and her own moral decrepitude, will topple Hillary.

Biden will jump in. If Kerry wins the Nobel Peace Prize, then he will jump in.

The dem ticket will either be Biden-Warren, or Kerry-McCaskill.

WHO WON? GERMANY OR GREECE?

The press is awash in articles and commentaries proclaiming that Greece has been humiliated and that Germany has won.

But that assessment depends on the -erroneous- assumption that the Greeks will eventually pay.

They can't and they won't.

So who won?

RELIAPUNDIT ADDS:

The banks who held Greek paper got bailed out; they won. The European taxpayers have lost. And anyone who likes democracy.

ATHENS AND ROME DESCENDING INTO RUINS AGAIN

REUTERS:

Modern Rome is descending into ruins.

Is all of Europe descending into ruins, too?

AQAP : YEMEN/SAUDI ARABIA : : IRAN : FREE WORLD

They want us to submit or be eradicated.

Containment is not an option.

Containment failed to contain the USSR: from 1945 to 1980 the USSR grew in power and their hegemony grew. Reagan's assertive and confrontational approach is what worked: clear rhetoric backed up with resolute actions and a military build up; when the Left protested, Reagan ignored them.

What Obama has done is worse than Carter and worse than Chamberlain. It is not appeasement; it is not containment. It is capitulation.

It must not stand.

We need to defeat this wretched deal, and hold on to dear life until we throw this traitor out of the White House and replace him with a patriot.

SIMPLE PROOF THE OBAMA-IRAN DEAL IS A BAD DEAL

This deal broke a dozen redlines Obama had himself drawn and promised he'd and never cross, and the deal has alienated our two closest and oldest allies in the region, Saudi Arabia and Israel, in fact,  the deal only helps Iran and Iran's satellites who are destabilizing the region.

It is a dreadfully awful deal for the USA our allies and the Free World.

People who support this deal are either dupes, partisans, or evil.

A BRAZILIAN MUST'VE CONVERTED TO ISLAM

And according to the UK Mail (via The Jawa Report), this man who went to Rome tried to knife a woman to death while yelling a typical form of blather by jihadists:

A tourist was forced to her knees at knifepoint at Rome's Colosseum in a terrifying attack that recalled an ISIS-style execution.

Hundreds of horrified visitors to the Italian landmark looked on as the attacker held a kitchen knife to the neck of a 26-year-old woman and yelled 'Allah is great' and 'It is God that sends me'.

The man held Chiara Frisco hostage for several minutes as he yelled religious fanaticism at the crowd with police powerless to act.

One witness said: 'It seemed like a scene from ISIS.

'He made the girl get down on her knees like you see in the terrorists' videos, while he held a knife to her throat.

'The only thing missing was the orange jumpsuit.'

Others told Il Messaggero he was yelling 'incomprehensible things, but among them "Allah is great".'

[...] She told La Repubblica: 'I felt myself pulled suddenly into the middle of the crowd. Then I felt the blade of the knife that he was holding against me. I feared the worst would happen.

'I could not see the weapon. The whole attack lasted seconds but I felt a tremendous fear.

'The man was yelling like a maniac. Luckily the police came though.'

When the police arrived, the attacker ran off through the Forum packed with tourists towards the centre of Rome, piazza Venezia, where he was disarmed and arrested.

A policeman explained that with so many people around, they were afraid they'd shoot an innocent bystander by accident. It's miraculous that the girl survived. What this says is that even in Italy, danger from jihadists is lurking.

POLL: WHAT GAME-CHANGING EVENT OCCURS BEFORE THE OTHERS?

WORLD MADE MORE DANGEROUS WITH NEW IRAN DEAL

Obama keeps going by illusions that do nothing to end Iran's autocracy:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Barack Obama presented two starkly opposing views of the future following the announcement Tuesday of a nuclear deal with Iran, with Netanyahu saying the world is a more dangerous place, and Obama saying it is safer.

"The world is a much more dangerous place today than it was yesterday,” Netanyahu said to reporters before convening an emergency meeting of his security cabinet to discuss the deal.

His comments came just a couple hours after Obama said that the deal will prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and “makes our country and the world safer and more secure.”

But Netanyahu strongly disagreed. “The leading international powers have bet our collective future on a deal with the foremost sponsor of international terrorism,” he said. “They've gambled that in ten years' time, Iran's terrorist regime will change while removing any incentive for it to do so. In fact, the deal gives Iran every incentive not to change.”

Netanyahu’s comments were aimed more at the destabilizing impact an Iran flush with “hundreds of billions of dollars” in cash following the lifting of sanctions, than at the prospect of a nuclear threat from Tehran.

As a matter of fact, they can use any money they end up making to build more nuclear weapons, secretly or otherwise.

To further illustrate the likely destabilizing impact of the accord, the prime minister quoted Hassan Nasrallah, the head of “Iran’s terrorist proxy Hezbollah,” as saying that “a rich and strong Iran will be able to stand by its allies and friends in the region more than at any time in the past.”

In other words, he said, “Iran's support for terrorism and subversion will actually increase after the deal.”

Calling the deal a “stunning historic mistake,” Netanyahu said that Iranian Presdent Hassan Rouhani was correct in saying that with the deal “the international community is removing the sanctions and Iran is keeping its nuclear program.'

“By not dismantling Iran's nuclear program, in a decade this deal will give an unreformed, unrepentant and far richer terrorist regime the capacity to produce many nuclear bombs, in fact an entire nuclear arsenal with the means to deliver it,” he said.

Exactly. No deal like this is going to result in Iran discarding their nuclear manufacturing. That's why we can't accept it under any circumstances.

What the Obama-Iran axis reveals

Prophecies of the endtimes predicted that the false prophet would come with the message of peace and light, but that he is a servant of Satan the liar, the destroyer of mankind. He would be a great orator who keeps the masses spellbound with his words.

In more recent news, Nobel Peace Prize winner Obama has announced a deal with Iran that he argues will help bring peace to the world.

Here is a photo of Obama's and Kerry's Iranian negotiating partner:

Why is this man smiling?  Because he just signed a deal with the man who traded five of the worst islamoterrorists in Gitmo for one deserter.

The credo of the postmodern left: "I BLAME EVERYTHING BAD ON."...

I blame Bush, the crusades, global warming, the one percent, the rape culture, the rebel flag, islamophobia, homophobia, walmartmcdonaldschikfilahobbylobby, Christians, Israel, Nixon, Reagan, Palin,  and Trump.

Nothing a few gulags punishing thoughtcrimes can't cure.

Then, with all the carbon using zionistic racist teabaggers in jail we can finally have unlimited abortion, unlimited drug use, legal prostitution, free euthanasia, free healthcare, free housing, free food, and free clothing, a living wage, and free ipads.

YAY, LEFTIST PARADISE!

UTOPIA ACHIEVED!!!!!

LEFT BANNING USE OF "HUSBAND" AND "WIFE", CAN BANNING "MASCULINE" AND "FEMININE" BE FAR BEHIND?

The left is busy criminalizing words and making thoughtcrimes out of words and flags they don't like.

Husband, wife, male, female, masculine, feminine, mensroom, womensroom... islamic terror... they have a lot of taboo words  - they think they can change the world by outlawing these and similar words.

It's a form of magical thinking.

Like if we call a Cherokee person an indian we have commited a culture crime. Ditto naming a team after an indian tribe or tribal leader. They even  now deny there is any such thing as a "sanctuary city".

They coin words for the same reason: teabagger, climate denier, rethuglican, faux news, inauthentic black, undocumented immigrant, carbon footprint, apartheid Israel, rape epidemic/culture of rape, triggering events and microaggressions and so on.

Like utopianists who went before them, they are totalitarians, and totalitarians seek total control - even of our language.

Why are leftists totalitarians who persecute people who disagree with their agenda? Because when you believe you can create a utopia then you are willing to eradicate anything and anyone and even any word that gets in your way. Any way you can.

Believing utopia is possible is in itself a form of magical thinking.

This is what drives the left and the islamists, and it's what make them both dangerous.

HMMM: EL CHAPO - WHOSE CARTEL BOUGHT ILLEGAL GUNS FROM OBAMA - THREATENS TRUMP

ABCNEWS:

Presidential candidate Donald Trump has asked the FBI to look into a threatening tweet he received in the wake of a post on the social network he wrote about Mexican drug lord El Chapo, who recently escaped from prison, ABC News has learned. 

Sources tell ABC News Trump contacted the FBI’s Office in Manhattan on Monday.

The tweet from user @ElChap0Guzman, originally in Spanish, reads: “Keep [expletive] around and I'm gonna make you swallow your [expletive] words...” 

HMMM: OBAMA AND HOLDER SOLD GUNS TO THE MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS.

THEY SOLD THE MOST TO THE SINALOA CARTEL RUN BY... GUESS WHO? EL CHAPO.

IS IT A COINCIDENCE THAT HE IS THREATENING TRUMP?

I WONDER.

BECAUSE EVER SINCE OBAMA TRADED 5 OF THE WORST TERRORISTS IN GITMO FOR A DESERTER - AND ALWAYS ONLY EXPRESSES SORROW OVER BLACKS WHO ARE KILLED BY COPS AND NEVER TO OUR WAR HEROS OR CITIZENS KILLED BY ILLEGAL ALIENS, I ALWAYS SUSPECT THE WORST.

MULTICULTURALISM IS THE NEW RELIGION IN SCANDINAVIA

Front Page Magazine talks about the new multi-culti faith that's turning Scandanavia into something wholly different:

During recent travel to Scandinavia after a six year absence, the take-away now is even more pronounced: Christianity is a diminishing reality and the new faith that has arisen is multiculturalism. It may be more evident in Sweden than in Norway or Finland, but nevertheless, it is found everywhere. As you watch the morning commuter trains unload, four -- if not five -- out of every ten non-tourist passengers appear to be non-native. A significant number of the city’s bus drivers in Oslo are Africans. Many of the uniformed personnel in Sweden and Norway appear to be of Middle Eastern origin. [...]

In Sweden, concern about uncontrolled immigration was expressed by Magnus and Jerry (both in their late 20’s) and living in different parts of Stockholm. Magnus, was concerned about the future character of Sweden and was particularly worried about the influx of Middle Eastern Arab-Muslims. Jerry revealed that he has voted for the conservative Sweden Democrats (SD) party. He confided, however, that in Sweden today, political correctness (PC) makes it a taboo to disclose his having voted for the SD party, particularly in his place of employment. He would be shamed if he told his colleagues about his choice. Yet, over a million Swedes voted for the SD party.

Jerry and Magnus both maintained that the Swedish government gives preferential treatment to immigrants in terms of housing and education. Although college tuition in Sweden is free, most students are living in dorms or in rentals, and Stockholm’s rentals are very high, leaving students with huge debts, when compared to the rest of Europe. Whereas the immigrants receive subsidized housing and free tuition, native Swedes are stuck with overwhelming debt. According to Jerry, this is one of the key reasons why the SD party rose to become the third largest party in Sweden.

It is ironic that the Swedish government, which boasts about the helping hand it gives to refugees and its support for a Palestinian state (without having to negotiate peace terms with Israel), is doing little to protect its citizenry. In a February 14, 2015 article written by Ingrid Carlqvist and Lars Hedegaard (editors-in-chief of the Swedish based Dispatch International) for the Gatestone Institute International Policy Council titled “Sweden: Rape Capital of the West,” they assert that “[f]orty years after the Swedish parliament unanimously decided to change the formerly homogeneous Sweden into a multicultural country, violent crime has increased by 300% and rapes by 1,472%. Sweden is now number two on the list of rape countries, surpassed only by Lesotho in Southern Africa. Significantly, the report (by the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention) does not touch on the background of the rapists. One should, however, keep in mind that in statistics, second generation immigrants are counted as Swedes.”

Both the dominant liberal-left media and the multicultural elites in government and academia seek to hide the fact that ethnic Swedish women are being raped by Middle Eastern and African immigrants. Carlqvist and Hedegaard go on to report that “[t]he internet radio station Granskning Sverige called the mainstream newspapers Aftonposten and Expressen to ask why they described the perpetrators as ‘Swedish men’ when they actually were Somalis without Swedish citizenship. They were hugely offended when asked if they felt any responsibility to warn Swedish women to stay away from certain men. One journalist asked why that should be their responsibility.” These politically correct so-called journalists forgot that reporting the true facts of a story is a journalistic duty.

Worse, they practically support communist tactics. And that could all end up becoming their downfall as the country ends up reaping what it's sown.

BLOOM COUNTY TURNS UP ON FACEBOOK AFTER 26 YEARS

If you were around in the 80s, you probably read the old Bloom County comic strip that ran between 1979-89. Its cartoonist, Berkeley Breathed, who later replaced it with the Sunday-only Outland (and later Opus), produced a special revival online:

Is Opus the Penguin back after a quarter-century?

In any case, the popular cartoon character from "Bloom County" has made an unexpected comeback in a comic strip posted Monday on Facebook by creator Berkeley Breathed. In the strip, Opus awakens after what he discovers was a 25-year nap.

Separately, a posted photo of Breathed shows him at his computer with the caption "A return after 25 years. Feels like going home."

Left unsaid: Whether the revival is a one-off, or, instead, "Bloom County" is back for an indefinite stay.

The whimsical strip, which viewed politics and culture through the lens of a small town in Middle America, began in 1980, appearing in newspapers daily. But in 1989, Breathed called a halt until now — at least, for one day.

Since we're on the subject, Breathed might be reviving it on a regular basis, and several days ago on Facebook, he brought up an interesting past incident where censorship limited the distribution of a cartoon he drew involving a "burqini":

[...] I can't wait to publish here... nicely out of reach of nervous newspaper editors, the PC humor police now rampant across the web... and ISIS. To wit...Check the following, below: I spent an hour a few years ago, discussing that sketch of a Burqini with the publisher of the Washington Post (while standing in the produce section of my Santa Barbara Trader Joes.) We--this is true-- negotiated the style of her hair. That strand sticking out. As it might offend muslims. Because the Muslim staffers in his office were offended. So we came to an agreement as to how much hair could be sticking out and how messy it looked.

I quit cartooning for good two months later. Yes, these two little events were organically connected. I'll never get that happy little hour of happy TJ's shopping back.

Fox News has more about that incident. I appreciate that he's taking advantage of the wider freedom the internet can afford him so he won't have to worry too much about today's PC brigade.

IS IT JUST A COINCIDENCE THAT SNOWDEN AND THE OPM HACK BOTH HAPPENED ON OBAMA'S WATCH?

I don't  think so.

Just saying...

ONTARIO DID THE WORST JOB ON LEV TAHOR CASE

A report by Quebec authorities says they bungled the job on dealing with the Lev Tahor cult, but Ontario did the worst by refusing to cooperate:

Ontario was the “weakest link” in a child-welfare saga involving the Jewish sect Lev Tahor that fled Quebec in 2013 because the province has no way to enforce protection orders issued outside its borders, according to the head of Quebec’s human rights commission.

Jacques Fremont released a sweeping review of the years-long case that resulted in 200 people from 40 families who were members of the isolated group ultimately fleeing to Guatemala from Canada and the scrutiny of police, education and child welfare officials.

The conclusion is that the competing mandates and priorities of Quebec’s director of youth protection, which wanted to take children into its custody, and the Sûreté du Québec, which wanted to gather evidence for its criminal investigation, meant the Quebec government was unable to ensure the protection of some 134 underage, at-risk children.

After numerous isolated investigations of Lev Tahor in Quebec stretching back to 2006, including allegations of inadequate school conditions, suicide attempts, unsanitary living conditions and sexual abuse, the Lev Tahor probe had to re-start from scratch in for Chatham-Kent, Ont., when the group fled Quebec on the night of Nov. 18, 2013.

“A chain is the weakest at its weakest link,” Fremont said. “Ontario was the weakest link and that’s where (Lev Tahor) went. Was it by chance or deliberately? I don’t know.”

I sometimes wondered if Ontario's authorities wanted to enable the cult to escape from the country, perhaps because they secretly approved of their horrific customs. This certainly was handled very badly, and there's no telling if and when the cult will finally be shut down.

More on the case at the Montreal Gazette.

DON'T EXPECT CONGRESS TO DISAPPROVE AN IRAN DEAL

An expert warns that Israelis shouldn't put too much faith in Congress to prevent an awful deal between Obama's administration and the Iranian autocracy:

The Iran deal, if and when it comes, may be a “hard sell” in the U.S. Congress, but Israelis should not put too much hope in the possibility of the deal not being approved at the end of the day, a top security official told Arutz Sheva Sunday.

The official was responding to comments made by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said in an interview with Fox News on Sunday that the deal would be a “hard sell” in Congress. “It’s going to be a very hard sell, if it’s completed, in Congress,” McConnell told Fox News. “He can win on Iran and this deal with holding 34 Democrats because that’s the way the approval process is structured.”

[...] Speaking on Fox News, McConnell said that “I know there will be a strong pull not to go against the president on something as important as this is to him, but I hope there will be enough Democrats willing to look at this objectively.”

Eventually, the Israeli official said, it was likely that President Obama would get his way and the deal would be approved. “There is no question that Congress sees this deal in a different light than the White House does. The question is what will happen when the voting takes place. Senators can expect a great deal of pressure to be placed on them.

Yeah, and the worst part is if they're too cowardly to withstand it. That's why it'll take more than just hoping on the sidelines they'll oppose a faustian pact without communications between Congress and Israeli diplomats. People who oppose a horrific deal with Iran should speak up.
