US ARMY OFFICIALS THWART TERROR ATTACK ON TRAIN TO PARIS

It's very lucky these army members were traveling aboard a train heading from Amsterdam to Paris, because the train staff didn't show proper courage to deal with this themselves (Hat tip: Hot Air):

The struggle was brief, bloody and chaotic.

The high-speed train was zipping from Amsterdam to Paris on Friday when a shirtless man emerged from the bathroom — a rifle slung over his shoulder, witnesses said.

A French passenger and three Americans — a civilian, an Air Force member and a National Guard member — jumped into action. They quickly tackled him, possibly averting a massacre aboard the train.

By the time the suspect was subdued, three people had nonlife-threatening injuries, said Anthony Blondeau, a spokesman for Arras city in northern France, where the train pulled up after the incident and the suspect was arrested. One of the Americans was among the injured.

The suspect was identified as a Moroccan terrorist known to authorities in Spain. The soldiers and French rider who took down the filth did the right thing to spring into action, and saved many people from a more serious disaster.

Update: here's more exact confirmation of the attempted gunman's identity:

A French official close to the investigation says police have positively identified the train gunman as 26-year-old Moroccan Ayoub El-Khazzani. French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said earlier Saturday that Spanish authorities had alerted French intelligence to him in February 2014 because he "belonged to the radical Islamist movement," and the French put him on a security watch list. El-Khazzani was identified through his fingerprints, according to the official, who insisted on not being identified by name because of the ongoing probe.

The reason why he was able to smuggle a gun and box cutting knife aboard the train is because, although there are armed soldiers guarding stations, they don't use metal detectors and bag searches. Well they're going to have to change all that if they really want the rides to be safe.

Update 2: here's more about the brave men who defeated the terrorist.

MORE PROOF OBAMA WORKS FOR PUTIN

Obama was raised in the lap of leftism by communist symps and agents of the USSR and their lackeys and running dogs:

• FRANK MARSHALL DAVIS
• VERNON JARRETT AND VALERIE JARRETT
• BARBARA BOWMAN
• SAUL ALINSKY AND JERRY KELLMAN
• TOM AND BILL AYERS
• EDWARD SAID AND RASHID KHALIDI
• REV WRIGHT AND FARRAKHAN
• DERRICK BELL

to name just a few. Some of saw this in 200o, and warned everyone about it.

These folks who raised Obama - and make no mistake about it, even his mom and grandparents were hardcore leftists - were witting and unwitting agents of the KGB, as was nearly the entire anti-Vietnam war movement, which included another agent of the enemy, John Kerry.

Obama exposed himself as an agent of Putin's here, in the videotaped meeting with Medvedev, when he said to the Russian  that he would be more flexible after his reelection, and Medvedec said he would tell Vladimir.

NOW THERE IS NEWS OF MORE PROOF:

As Russian President Vladimir Putin's forces took over Ukraine's Crimean peninsula in early 2014, the interim Ukrainian government was debating whether or not to fight back against the "little green men" Russia had deployed. But the message from the Barack Obama administration was clear: avoid military confrontation with Moscow.

INSTEAD OF SIGNALING WE WOULD DEFEND UKRAINE AS OUR TREATY WITH THEM AVOWS, OBAMA WAS "FLEXIBLE" IN BEHALF OF PUTIN, AND SACRIFICED UKRAINE AND OUR SECURITY.

THIS WAS TRAITOROUS TREACHERY...

... SOMETHING THOSE OF US WHO RECOGNIZED OBAMA, FOR WHAT HE ALWAYS WAS, ALWAYS EXPECTED...  AND WE SAW THIS IN 2008.

OBAMA AND KERRY, (A LEADER OF THE KGB CONTROLLED ANTI-WAR MOVEMENT WHO BESMIRCHED THE US MILITARY WITH LIES AND MET WITH THE NORTH VIETNAMESE ENEMY IN PARIS IN 1970), ARE THE HIGHEST PLACED MOLES FOR THE KGB SINCE  TREASURY UNDER SECRETARY WHITE AND ALGER HISS.

I BELIEVE THE CAPITULATION BY OBAMA AND KERRY TO IRAN,  AND CUBA, ARE THE CROWNING ACHIEVEMENTS OF THEIR TREASONOUS TREACHERY TO THE USA AND THE  WEST, AND THEIR FINEST HOUR IN SERVICE TO THE KGB.

THEY WILL OROBABLY BECOME SECRET COLONELS IN THE KGB NOW, AND RETIRE TO CUBA, WHO OPENING UP IS YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THEIR TREASONOUS TREACHERY IN BEHALF OF PUTIN AND RUSSIA.

ISLAMOFASCISM'S USE OF RAPE AS A TOOL

Michael Ledeen wrote about how sexual abuse is a leading factor in the Muslim doctrine:

There was a brief flurry of outrage at the report that the “Caliph” of the Islamic state had repeatedly raped American aid worker Kayla Mueller [1] before she finally died in an attack against IS targets. The New York Times devoted a lot of space [2] to what it called the “theology of rape” that is an integral part of the doctrine and practice of the “Caliphate.” The Times story suggested that the systematic use of rape was of relatively recent vintage for IS, but the violent treatment of women by radical Islamists is nothing new. It ranges from rape and honor killings to beating, to formal, legal definition of women as inferior beings. In Iran, for example, the legal code treats a woman as “worth” half a man, and this is reflected in penalties for crimes against them. If a man kills a pregnant woman with a male fetus, for example, he is likely to be ordered to pay a full charge for the fetus but half as much for the mother.

[...] Needless to say, rape, honor killings and the oppression of women are not limited to radical Islamist men. But the systematic use of rape certainly seems more common to them than to any other contemporary group. This should not surprise us; the environment in which radical Islam is transmitted to the young men seems almost deliberately designed to produce sexual repression. The madrasas in which Koranic ideology is taught are sexually segregated and physically unpleasant. The students typically sit cross-legged on the ground for hours on end, memorizing the sacred text. There are no females in their lives, and the hormones of the faithful are every bit as powerful as those of the infidels. Ergo, they emerge with wild sexual fantasies that are fueled by promises of a sexual paradise in which the faithful will be rewarded by the total submission of 72 beautiful virgins.
No wonder IS uses rape as a recruiting tool!

I think I can see his point. They have such a horrific education system, it renders them all but incapable of maintaining a polite relationship with the opposite sex. Obviously, there's no proper sex education in Islam, and certainly not a belief in convincing respect for the fairer sex, so they emerge as beasts in sheep's clothing.

REUTERS: HILLARY IS LYING; SHE RECEIVED AND SENT DOZENS OF "BORN CLASSIFIED" EMAILS ON HER SERVER

REUTERS: Exclusive: Dozens of Clinton emails were classified from the start, U.S. rules suggest

For months, the U.S. State Department has stood behind its former boss Hillary Clinton as she has repeatedly said she did not send or receive classified information on her unsecured, private email account, a practice the government forbids. 

While the department is now stamping a few dozen of the publicly released emails as "Classified," it stresses this is not evidence of rule-breaking. Those stamps are new, it says, and do not mean the information was classified when Clinton, the Democratic frontrunner in the 2016 presidential election, first sent or received it. 

But the details included in those "Classified" stamps — which include a string of dates, letters and numbers describing the nature of the classification — appear to undermine this account, a Reuters examination of the emails and the relevant regulations has found.
The new stamps indicate that some of Clinton's emails from her time as the nation's most senior diplomat are filled with a type of information the U.S. government and the department's own regulations automatically deems classified from the get-go — regardless of whether it is already marked that way or not.

This sort of information, which the department says Clinton both sent and received in her emails, is the only kind that must be "presumed" classified, in part to protect national security and the integrity of diplomatic interactions, according to U.S. regulations examined by Reuters.

"It's born classified," said J. William Leonard, a former director of the U.S. government's Information Security Oversight Office (ISOO). Leonard was director of ISOO, part of the White House's National Archives and Records Administration, from 2002 until 2008, and worked for both the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush administrations.

"If a foreign minister just told the secretary of state something in confidence, by U.S. rules that is classified at the moment it's in U.S. channels and U.S. possession," he said in a telephone interview, adding that for the State Department to say otherwise was "blowing smoke."

Reuters' findings may add to questions that Clinton has been facing over her adherence to rules concerning sensitive government information. Spokesmen for Clinton declined to answer questions

HILLARY AND HER COMRADES HAVE BEEN LYING ABOUT HER EMAILS AND SERVERS FROM THE START.

HILLARY AND HER COMRADES BROKE THE RULES AND THE LAW AND ENDANGERED USA NATIONAL SECURITY.

HILLARY AND HER COMRADES BELONG IN JAIL.

SPAIN'S MUSIC CONVENTION APOLOGIZES TO MATISYAHU FOR BDS FIASCO

The convention organizers have issued an apology for caving to politics:

Following a barrage of criticism, organizers of an international reggae festival in Spain backtracked Wednesday and apologized for cancelling a concert by Jewish American reggae star Matisyahu because he had declined to state his position regarding a Palestinian state.

Rototom Sunsplash Festival said in a statement that it publicly apologized for canceling the concert and invited Matisyahu to play as originally planned this coming Saturday.

It said it recognized its mistake, adding that it had been the result of pressure by a local branch of the pro-Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, which campaigned against Matisyahu's participation.

Did they have to do the bidding of the local BDS minions? Absolutely not; the festival's supposed to be free of politics, and such disgraces shouldn't be there. If they want to prove they can mend fences, they'll make a business decision to keep the festival free of politics from now on, and not welcome any BDS movements ever again.

IRAQI MUSLIM ARRESTED IN CANADA FOR SPOUSAL ABUSE

He even threw a higher tantrum after the wife kissed the hand of one of the officers who helped her, leading to his official arrest. From the Winnipeg Sun: (Hat tip: The Jawa Report):

Police were called to the man's home after a report of a 911 hang-up call, Mitrovic told court. The man's wife, who only speaks Arabic, indicated through hand gestures that he had hit her in the eye.

Police were searching the man's clothing when his wife kissed one of the officers on the hand, Mitrovic said. The accused then "grabbed her by the throat and violently shoved her."

Police arrested the man and took him into custody. In an interview with an Arabic-speaking police officer, the man said "he wanted to be locked up in a mental hospital and the key thrown away as he didn't know what he would do to his wife," Mitrovic told court.

"He also said he doesn't agree with Canadian laws and that his wife is his property and he can do what he wants with her," Mitrovic said.

And yet he moved there, surely hoping his religion alone would enable him to get away with it all.

Court was told the family fled their native Iraq for Syria before arriving in Winnipeg last February. The family suffered persecution from terrorist groups including al-Qaida. While in Syria, one of the man's children was kidnapped and held for ransom.

"The family is very strong in the Islamic religion and they have very strong cultural beliefs," said defence lawyer Lincoln Atten. "The family is suffering on a daily basis. At one point, (the accused) was sleeping in a park near the home just to be close to his family."

That's just what's keeping them from taking up a more rational lifestyle. They stick tight with the religion of rape, despite everything al Qaeda did in its name, and only end up doing just what the terrorists would want, which is to stick with a repellent ideology. And they don't make civilized people of themselves that way.

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO THE NEXT DEMOCRAT NOMINEE WILL BE, THEN YOU HAVE TO ASK CAROLINE KENNEDY WHO SHE SUPPORTS

In 2004, Kerry was trailing badly in Iowa and then brought in Teddy Kennedy and Teddy's head political aides to save his campaign and win him the nomination. WIKI:

Kerry's campaign appeared to be seriously faltering.  In November he replaced campaign manager James M. Jordan with Mary Beth Cahill, who was serving as Sen. Edward M. Kennedy's chief of staff.  A December 3, 2003 American Research Group poll of likely Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire showed Kerry trailing Dean 45% to 13%. 

With the help of the Kennedy's, Kerry ended up winning the nomination.

In 2008, Hillary - like Dean - was the frontrunner by  far. But.... Obama secured the endorsement of the Kennedy's, with Caroline now leading the way, and Obama won the nomination.




This endorsement disappointed the Clinton's but it shouldn't have surprised them: the Kennedy's and the Chicago Machine go way back; Joseph Kennedy Sr sold whisky to the mobsters there and bought the Chicago Mart and had deep ties to the city and the machine which ran it then, and runs it now.

This is the machine which launched Obama and gave him his first COS, Rahm Emanuel. It is the machine which employed Michelle's father, too.

The combined efforts of the Chicago Machine and the Kennedy Machine and the Democrat Party Machine will choose the next nominee. One who will protect the machine, first and foremost.

That means serve the SEIU, AFSCME, the NEA, the AFL0CIO, the trial lawyers, La Raza, the NAACP, and the New Black Panthers Party and the LGBT(xyz123) crowd.

Someone who can get the support of Caroline Kennedy, first and foremost.

Where she goes, the others will follow...

UPDATE: Joe Biden has deep ties to the Chicago Machine and was tight with Teddy.... and Kerry and Warren are from Massachusetts: One of these three will get the nod from Caroline and be the nominee.

Stay tuned...

Planned Parenthood is part of the Democrat party machine

If you look at the wikipedia bio of Cecile Richards, this is what you see:

Richards previously founded and served as president of America Votes, a coalition of national Democratic Party-affiliated organizations.[4] 

Before that, she was deputy chief of staff to the U.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, the Democratic Leader in the U.S. House of Representatives.[5] 

She has also worked at the Turner Foundation.[6] 

In 1996, she founded the Texas Freedom Network, a Texas organization formed to counter the Christian right.[7] 

Richards is the daughter of former Texas governor Ann Richards (née Dorothy Ann Willis) and David Richards.[3] 

She attended St. Stephen's Episcopal School for high school, and graduated from Brown University in 1980.[8] She is married to Kirk Adams, a labor organizer with the Service Employees International Union, and has three children.[9] 

HMMM... This shows you that PP is part and parcel of the Dem Party Crime Cartel.

This evil woman is the daughter of a Texas governor, the wife of an SEIU organizer, former deputy chief of staff for corruptocrat Pelosi, and worked for the Turner foundation.

To what part of the corrupt Dem crime machine doesn't she have a link?

Like the SEUI and the teachers unions and AFSCME, PP exists because of the Democrat Party and it exists to kickback money to the Democrat machine.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD CAMPAIGN DONATIONS - OF MONEY EARNED MURDERING BABIES - SUPPORTS DEMOCRATS.

The Democrat Party is literally built on the crushed and harvested bodies of aborted babies.

In a word: evil.

UN'S ALLOWING IRAN TO EVADE RESPONSIBILITY AGAIN

They're going to allow them to use their own "experts" to inspect nuclear sites, and we know how well that can turn out:

Iran, in an unusual arrangement, will be allowed to use its own experts to inspect a site it allegedly used to develop nuclear arms under a secret agreement with the U.N. agency that normally carries out such work, according to a document seen by The Associated Press.

The revelation is sure to roil American and Israeli critics of the main Iran deal signed by the U.S., Iran and five world powers in July. Those critics have complained that the deal is built on trust of the Iranians, a claim the U.S. has denied.

The investigation of the Parchin nuclear site by the International Atomic Energy Agency is linked to a broader probe of allegations that Iran has worked on atomic weapons. That investigation is part of the overarching nuclear deal.

The Parchin deal is a separate, side agreement worked out between the IAEA and Iran. The United States and the five other world powers that signed the Iran nuclear deal were not party to this agreement but were briefed on it by the IAEA and endorsed it as part of the larger package.

Without divulging its contents, the Obama administration has described the document as nothing more than a routine technical arrangement between Iran and the U.N.'s International Atomic Energy Agency on the particulars of inspecting the site.

Spare us the apologia, please. No matter what they're telling us now, it's pretty clear the UN - already run as they are by totalitarian countries - is willing to allow Iran to get away with treachery once again. This just proves by extension that the UN can't be trusted either, and their own inspectors are not qualified for the job.

ISIS BEHEADS SYRIAN ANTIQUITIES EXPERT

There's been another Islamic decapitation in Syria:

The aging antiquities scholar dedicated his life to exploring and overseeing Syria's ancient ruins of Palmyra, one of the Middle East's most spectacular archaeological sites. He even named his daughter after Zenobia, the queen that ruled from the city some 1,700 years ago.

Islamic State militants who now control the city beheaded him in a main square and hung his body on a pole, witnesses and relatives said Wednesday.

The killing of 81-year-old Khaled al-Assad stunned Syria's archaeologists and underscored fears that the extremist group will destroy or loot the 2,000-year-old Roman-era city on the edge of the modern town of the same name, as they have other major archaeological sites in Syria and Iraq.

The Sunni extremists, who have imposed a violent interpretation of Islamic law across the territory they control in the two countries, believe ancient relics promote idolatry. IS militants claim they are destroying ancient artifacts and archaeological treasures as part of their purge of paganism — though they are also believed to sell off looted antiquities as a significant income earner.

Uh oh, the AP is imposing their own distortions on the proceedings. Islam and the Koran incorporate violence. It's not just interpretation. And when they do that, they end up doing a disfavor to the memory of the man whose murder they reported.

HILLARY IS ALREADY DRESSED FOR HER NEXT OFFICE

AT HER AWFUL PRESSER YESTERDAY:

AS SHE WILL SOON LOOK IN HER NEXT OFFICE:

Who wiped clean Hillary's server, when, where, how and why?

HILLARY DENIES SHE WIPED IT CLEAN.

POWER LINE, (VIDEO AT THE LINK):

ON THE SERVER, HILLARY PLAYS DUMB: “LIKE WITH A CLOTH OR SOMETHING?” 

Hillary Clinton took some questions at an event in Las Vegas today, and a reporter asked her whether she had wiped her home server clean before turning it over to the FBI, as news reports indicate. Hillary responded in her usual condescending style, failing to answer the question. When the reporter repeated it, she played dumb– “Like with a cloth or something?”–and disclaimed any knowledge of how digital devices work. You almost have to see it to believe it:

THEN WHO DID?

WHEN?

WHERE?

I HOPE GOWDY GETS HER TO ANSWER UNDER OATH.... AND SOON.

AS THE BLUE DRESS WAS FOR BILL CLINTON, SO THE SERVER IS TO HILLARY

The FBI thinks it can recover the deleted emails from Hillary's server.

That means Hillary's server is like Lewisnky's sperm-laden blue dress:

an incriminating bit of evidence which proves that a Clinton has been lying all along.

THE MURDER OF LEO FRANK, A CENTURY LATER

The Atlanta Journal Constitution wrote about the history of the murder of Leo Frank, the factory manager who was framed for the murder of Mary Phagan, and later kidnapped and lynched by an anti-semitic mob who despised the governor's commutation of the unjust sentence. And only years later did a witness who spotted the real murderer named Jim Conley admit what happened, because the vicious janitor had warned he'd murder him too if he spoke up.

What's really stupefying about the case is that, if I'm correct, the victim herself was Jewish (is Phagan not a Jewish name?), and if so, then the whole neanderthalic clan of Marietta who took part in the murder of Frank were only looking for cheap excuses for violence against Jews and any other outsider they didn't consider part of their small tent collection.

Frank only got a partial pardon all this time. It's high time he receive a full pardon, and Conley get a posthumous conviction.

SPANISH MUSIC FESTIVAL CANCELS JEWISH PERFORMER'S APPEARANCE BECAUSE HE WOULDN'T DHIMMIFY

BDS takes hold at a music convention in Spain, where the organizers forced politics into the proceedings:

A music festival in Spain has canceled the performance of American Jewish reggae star Matisyahu following intense pressure from the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, Spanish daily El Pais reported Sunday.

According to the report, Rototom Sunsplash Reggae Festival's organizers issued the singer an ultimatum demanding he release a statement of "clear support for the Palestinians right to a state" or face the consequences. Matisyahu refused, and his Aug. 22 concert was promptly canceled.

A statement posted on the festival's Facebook page said Rototom's move was linked its "social platform" and its "sensitivity to Palestine, its people and the occupation of its territory by Israel."

According to El Pais, other artists participating in the festival said they would cancel their performances if Matisyahu was allowed to take the stage as he "represents Israel."

The BDS movement welcomed the decision, saying Matisyahu is "a Zionist who supports the practice of apartheid."

Ronald S. Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress denounced the decision, calling it "a clear instance of anti-Semitism and nothing else."

It's a festival I wouldn't want to attend, and the musicians who shunned the guy prove they're not worth listening to, or buying their music albums. This is one convention that's tainted with inappropriate political overtones.

TO SAVE HER CAMPAIGN, WILL HILLARY "COME OUT" AS A LESBIAN OR AS BISEXUAL ON "THE ELLEN SHOW"?

It looks like Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has another televised interview lined up, this time with Ellen DeGeneres. 

DeGeneres tweeted Monday that Clinton, along with Caitlyn Jenner and Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, are to be among the host’s guests during the premiere week for her day-time talk show beginning Sept. 8.... Clinton also appeared on the show in 2007 when she was seeking the Democratic presidential nomination. During that interview with DeGeneres, who is gay, Clinton discussed her support for civil unions for same-sex couples, but not marriage rights, which she said should be left to states. In the years since, Clinton has become a supporter of same-sex marriage. 

The sit-down with DeGeneres would be one of only a handful of televised interviews the former secretary of State has done since formally entering the 2016 presidential race. Her first was in July with CNN.

HMMM... IF SHE COMES OUT AS BISEXUAL SHE CAN DIVERT ATTENTION FROM HER TREASON AND BLAME THE ATTACKS ON HOMOPHOBIA....

UH OH: MORGAN STANLEY GLOBAL MACRO ECONOMIST: "the world is one shock away from recession"

... While China reported that its GDP grew exactly in line with its growth target of 7% in the first and second quarters this year, all other independent data, from electricity production to car sales, indicate the economy is growing closer to 5%. 

That leaves the global economy perilously close to recession territory. In the first half of 2015, global economic output expanded by barely 2%, making it the weakest two-quarter period since the expansion began in mid-2009. Industrial production and world trade growth were flat, developments that in the past have corresponded with global recessions. 

... This quarter there is little evidence to suggest that the global economy is breaking out of its first-half rut, with growth still stuck in the 2%-2.5% corridor. This means that the world is one shock away from recession. A debt-laden China is now the critical link, and another one- or two-percentage point decline in its growth rate could provide that shock. The currency devaluation last week, coming after a string of increasingly desperate and ineffective stimulus measures, added to the sense that the critical link is weak indeed.

SIGH....

THE NEWS GETS WORSE:

Doomsday clock for global market crash strikes one minute to midnight as central banks lose control; China currency devaluation signals endgame leaving equity markets free to collapse under the weight of impossible expectations.

THIS LINK HAS A DOZEN CHARTS WHICH SHOW THE END OF THE CURRENT BUBBLE IS NEARER THAN MOST PEOPLE THINK.....

NO MATTER HOW SEEMINGLY HARMLESS AN INVESTMENT, IT'LL STILL WIND UP WITH IRAN'S AUTOCRATS

Two writers for the Weekly Standard warn why it's dangerous to invest in Iran, even if it's non-political on the surface:

Proponents of the Iran nuclear agreement say assisting Iran out of its economic isolation could help prop up more moderate elements within the Islamic Republic. By any standard, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, or IRGC, fails the moderation test: it is Tehran’s ideological vanguard, responsible for exporting the revolution abroad and enforcing its rule at home. Nonetheless, the Iranian Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC)’s clout in Iran’s economy means that post-deal, even those projects which those proponents deem innocuous – such as building dams and roads – will serve mainly to fill the guard’s coffers.

The Obama administration is adamant that the IRGC “hates the deal,” because it supposedly opens up market previously cornered by the Guards to competition. The truth is rather different: the deal delists many companies that aided the IRGC in its proliferation efforts, its support for terrorism, and its involvement in the Syrian civil war. Though the deal keeps in place U.S. sanctions against the IRGC, it removes sectoral bans against areas of Iran’s economy that the IRGC dominates. The Guards, as Iran’s economic “gatekeeper,” will have ultimate say on how the country’s post-deal windfall will be spent.

No one who cares about their money should invest in any part of Iran's infrastructure if it ends up in the pockets the IRGC, let alone the overlords in the premier's fortress themselves. All that'll do is give them more money to buy and build additional weapons for jihad. It's the same with the PLO.

HILLARY CLINTON'S PRIVATE SERVER

According to the Daily Beast (August 12, 2015):

Underlying all this is the question of why Hillary Clinton decided to employ her own private email and server to handle so much of her official State Department business. This is, to say the least, highly irregular—not to mention a violation of numerous U.S. government rules and regulations—so there had to be a compelling reason to do this. What was it?

There are only so many reasons that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would have been using a private server in the first place.  A few possibilities:

(1) paranoia about "the vast right wing conspiracy"

(2) to hide something untoward — something personal or political

(3) distrust of the Obama administration

(4) to hide something about her health — perhaps the brain incident and her drinking.

Additional reading from Number of Classified Emails on Hillary’s Private Server Grows to 60:

The number of emails containing classified information that went through Hillary Clinton’s private server has grown to 60, according to the State Department. And that number is likely to grow as the investigation plows through the 30,000 emails Clinton didn’t delete.

WHY MUST INDIA'S PRIME MINISTER VISIT UAE?

The current premier of India, Narendra Modi, paid a visit to the UAE, all for the sake of trade relations:

India's prime minister began a two-day tour of the United Arab Emirates with a visit to its largest mosque on Sunday in a gesture of outreach to Muslims ahead of a planned speech to tens of thousands of Indian expatriates and bilateral meetings aimed at improving already strong trade links.

Narendra Modi is the first Indian premier to visit the country in 34 years. He will hold talks on Monday with Abu Dhabi's Crown Prince Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who greeted Modi at the airport, and Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.

Modi, who has come under fire for his party's links to hard-line Hindu groups, kicked off his visit with a tour of Abu Dhabi's Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. Modi, a Hindu like most of India's 1.2 billion people, has long had an uneasy relationship with his country's roughly 120 million Muslims. His nationalist Hindu party swept elections and he was sworn in as prime minister in May of last year.

Modi also visited the grave of the UAE's founder Sheikh Zayed, who is buried in the mosque compound. Dozens of Indians gathered at the gates of the mosque to catch a glimpse of the prime minister, who took a selfie with two Emirati officials outside the mosque and posted the picture on his Twitter account.

Boy, for somebody said to have an uneasy relationship, he's not making things any better by supporting the UAE and approving of fellow Indians going to work in an area known for abuse of its employees, as told in the following:

However, half of the 2.6 million Indians living in the UAE are migrant workers, according to the Indian Embassy. Many work in lower paying construction jobs, building the UAE's dazzling skyscrapers and shopping centers.

Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International have criticized the UAE's treatment of migrant workers, saying that despite government efforts, some employers continue to withhold wages, confiscate passports and provide substandard housing.

All of which will probably be ignored by the Indian premier, I sadly guess. What he should be doing is helping any innocent soul who's been abused by the Islamofacists in the UAE to escape from such a repellent predicament. But that's probably not going to happen.
