OBAMA WELCOMES CAIR REPRESENATATIVE TO WHITE HOUSE

Steve Emerson reported that Obama's staff has invited a CAIR representative named Hassan Shibly to the White House:
He accused the FBI of killing two men in cold blood in separate incidents. But Obama administration officials saw Hassan Shibly as a suitable representative of the American Muslim community to include at Monday’s White House meeting [1] on combating religious discrimination, the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) has learned.

Shibly is the chief executive director [2] for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in Florida. Since 2008, FBI policy has barred outreach communication with CAIR officials due to documents seized by law enforcement which place CAIR and its founders [3] at the heart of a Hamas-support network at the time of CAIR’s creation. Eyewitness interviews recently obtained by the IPT [4] further detail CAIR’s ties to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Once again, we have some pretty awful and incompetent politicians in charge.

YOUNG STABBING VICTIM IN JERUSALEM RECOVERS AND CELEBRATES BAR MITZVAH

It's fortunate to learn that the victim of 2 Muslim teenagers in Jerusalem has recovered from his stab wounds and went on to celebrate his bar mitzvah. He also got a new bicycle awarded to him by city police.

I'm glad he fully recovered.

HAMAS PLANNING NEW SUICIDE ATTACKS

You can be sure they mean to do everything they can to murder people with suicide bombings. United With Israel reports:
Hamas operatives, during interrogation, revealed that the terror group is planning a resumption of suicide bombings in Israel, motivated in part by their rivalry with the Palestinian Authority.

Hamas is planning suicide bombings against Israeli and Jewish targets similar to the deadly attacks launched against civilians during the Second Intifada, Walla! News reported on Friday, quoting a senior Palestinian Authority (PA) source.
Be on the lookout and be wary of your surroundings in an immediate area. Because they will try it. You can be sure of that. And it'll be truly repulsive.

KUWAITI AIRLINE CANCELS FLIGHT PLAN TO AVOID TRANSPORTING JEWS

The country that had problems with Iraq back in the early 90s has no moral compass either, and has made that clear with one of their airline businesses:
Kuwait hates Jews so much that its national airline has ditched its lucrative New York to London flight rather than allow Israelis on its planes.

Kuwait Airways told the federal Department of Transportation this week that it plans to discontinue its flights between the United States and the United Kingdom. It is did not say when the last flight on that route would be.

“On December 15th, Kuwait Airways informed the United States Department of Transportation that they will be eliminating service between JFK and London Heathrow,” said a department spokesperson.

The feds were considering pulling Kuwait Airways permit to fly in the United States because the airline was refusing to sell tickets to customers with Israeli passports. The airline has at least twice refused to let customers with Israeli passports buy tickets on flights from New York to London because Kuwait has a law that prohibits its citizens from doing business with Israeli customers.

Politicians who had pushed for the feds to nix the airline’s permit say they are glad the company decided to ditch the flight.
And so am I. Nobody with half a brain should give their money to a business run by anti-semites and racists. To think that the USA under Bush Senior would battle Iraq under Saddam's tyranny, but do nothing to reform the mentality in Kuwait, which is no better.

IF RADICAL ISLAMISTS HAVE HIJACKED A "RELIGION OF PEACE", THEN PEACE-LOVING MODERATE MUSLIMS SHOULD SUPPORT MOSQUE & MADRASSA SURVEILLANCE, AND...

... AND THEY SHOULD SUPPORT JAILING OR DEPORTING RADICAL ISLAMISTS WHO AGITATE FOR SHARIA AND ADVOCATE THE USE OF VIOLENCE BECAUSE THEY ARE ANTITHETICAL TO "TRUE ISLAM"AND SEDITIOUS.

IF THEY DON'T WANT SURVEILLANCE OF MOSQUES AND MADRASSAS, THEN IT MUST MEAN THEY HAVE SOMETHING TO HIDE...

... AND THAT THEY DO NOT AGREE ISLAM IS A RELIGION IF PEACE.

WHICH IS IT?

IT THINK YOU KNOW...


VIDEO ABOUT "FOREIGN AGENTS" OUTRAGES LEFTISTS LOOKING FOR EXCUSES TO BE ANGRY


This tape by Im Tirtzu has been making headlines and enraging leftists who only wish to be angry for the sake of it, because it reveals left-wing activists who've been collaborating with the enemies of Israel:
A new video clip produced by a social movement calling for the outlawing of left-wing activists operating as “foreign agents” was released on Tuesday, the Israeli news site Walla reported.

The short film, created by Im Tirtzu, a self-described “extra-parliamentary movement that works to strengthen and advance the values of Zionism in Israel,” presents four activists in organizations, including B’Tselem and Breaking the Silence, and accuses them of abetting Palestinian terrorism.

The clip was produced as part of a broader campaign by Im Tirtzu to call into question the operations of foreign-funded Israeli NGOs that have what the group calls an anti-Israel agenda, as The Algemeiner reported on Monday.
The campaign clip is meant to support a legal bill to prevent funding for groups that aim to damage Israel. And as far as I'm concerned, no activists who work to destroy the country should be funded with taxpayers' money. And they shouldn't even be getting involved in politics either, because IMHO, it only hurts people's minds. If they're angry the video was ever produced, they deserve whatever they've gotten. Thin skinned deserve no mercy.

There's more on the subject here and here, plus one more noting 13 NGOs who're funded by Ramallah Islamofascists.

JIHAD WITH HAMMER AT A MODIIN CONSTRUCTION SITE, AND INFANT LOSES LEG FROM ANOTHER ATTACK IN JERUSALEM

A Muslim worker at a construction site in Modiin assaulted his boss with a hammer:
A Palestinian construction worker at a building site in Modi’in attacked his Jewish manager with a hammer on Tuesday afternoon, leaving him moderately wounded, Israel’s Army Radio reported.

The laborer then attacked another man, who turned out to be an Arab from a different construction site. The second victim was also moderately wounded.

The assailant was arrested and taken to the police station for questioning.

Earlier in the day, a stabbing attack was thwarted in Jerusalem, when police officers patrolling the center of the city noticed a young Palestinian woman behaving suspiciously, and found a screwdriver in her bag. During the initial investigation it emerged that she had intended to use the tool to commit an attack.

These incidents come on the heels of Monday’s car-ramming attack in Jerusalem, which wounded more than a dozen Israelis, among them a baby, who is reported to have lost his leg.
There's more on that horrific incident here, and you'll surely need a strong stomach for that one. Injuring an infant that badly is even worse than the hammer assault.

HAREDI GUN AND DRUG TRAFFICKING NETWORK BUSTED

The corrupt activities of Haredi extremists extend even to the illegal drug and guns trade, and involved even some Muslims from Hebron working illegally in Jerusalem:
A major drugs trade network run by haredi men and centered in the radical ultra-Orthodox neighborhood of Mea Shearim in Jerusalem and Ramat Beit Shemesh has been revealed and broken by an undercover police officer in the Jerusalem Police Force.

News of the drugs ring was revealed by the police on Tuesday.

The investigation involved many months of undercover work by the agent involved and led to the arrest by police, detectives and border police forces in the early hours of Tuesday morning of 45 suspects in Jerusalem, Beit Shemesh, the central region and Judea and Samaria, who bought and sold drugs and weapons to the police agent who worked among them. Two minors between the ages of 15 and 17 were among those arrested.

Following information collected by the Jerusalem police about drug trade activity in Mea Shearim two years ago, it was decided to send an undercover police agent to pose as a haredi man and to assimilate within haredi society and penetrate the criminal underworld that had been established.

The investigative and intelligence unit of the Jerusalem Police then identified an appropriate religious individual to carry out the role, and after several months of training, including guidance in criminal slang, concepts with the criminal world, required behavior, body language, and speech, the agent began work in Mea Shearim.

From what he experienced, the agent said he quickly discerned that there was “a Mea Shearim of the day and a Mea Shearim of the night,” and that with nightfall came an active trade in drugs in the many kiosks and narrow alleys of the famously austere and pious haredi neighborhood.

The agent successfully integrated into the haredi society in Mea Shearim, and under police supervision, began to buy different types of drugs, including marijuana, hashish, ecstasy, and Cocaine.

He was also able to buy a stolen vehicle along with various firearms from two Arabs working in the neighborhood from Hebron working in Jerusalem without permits.
Now what are the chances those twosome were fully welcome in the neighborhood by the very extremists who were already plying the same trade? I think it's very likely they were. Extremists like Neturei Karta go hand in glove with jihadists.

If this report is correct, the police agent was a Haredi himself:
The agent, himself a member of a Haredi family from Jerusalem, was recruited to the Jerusalem District’s undercover agent unit two years ago. He studied in a Jerusalem yeshiva.

According to police, he infiltrated the Mea Shearim community, and after gaining the trust of felons there procured drugs, including marijuana, hashish, hydrocodone, ecstasy and cocaine. He also managed to buy a stolen car from the criminal network.

Besides the Haredi network, two Palestinians who worked illegally in businesses in the neighborhood offered to sell him unregistered guns.

The agent was then transferred to Ramat Beit Shemesh, an ultra-Orthodox neighborhood of Beit Shemesh, where he began to fear the traffickers he was following would discover he was working for the police.

In Ramat Beit Shemesh he succeeded in procuring even larger amounts of drugs, including “dozens of kilograms” of controlled substances at a cost of hundreds of thousands of shekels, police said. He also bought a stolen car, two Karl Gustav machine guns, an M-16 assault rifle likely stolen from an IDF base, and ammunition for the firearms.

[...] He described his work there as “a highly complex operation, in territories which are suspicious of police.” Many of the residents of the small Jerusalem neighborhood are anti-Zionist and avoid dealings with official Israeli institutions, including the police.
Don't be surprised if plenty of those weapons were sold to jihadists. This is a most alarming discovery, proving that isolationist enclaves like Mea Shearim and Ramat Beit Shemesh are dangerous places. The police agent did the right thing to help put a stop to those vile criminals.

REFUGEES IN AUSTRIA ARRESTED IN CONNECTION WITH PARIS ATTACKS

BBC:
Police in Austria have arrested two people suspected of having links to the Paris attacks at a centre for refugees in Salzburg, prosecutors say.Robert Holzleitner, from the state prosecutor's office, said the pair had travelled from the Middle East. They were arrested on suspicion of belonging to a terrorist organisation. One report said the men had travelled with members of the terror cell that carried out the 13 November attacks that killed 130 people.
THIS IS WHY TAKING IN REFUGEES FROM THE SYRIAN WAR IS INSANE.
WE DO NEED A PAUSE IN ALL IMMIGRATION FROM THE REGION AND ALL NATIONS WITH A ISLAMO-TERROR PROBLEM, AND WE NEED TO END THE VISA WAIVER PROGRAM.

IF AFFIRMATIVE ACTION IS OKAY, THEN PROFILING FOR NATIONAL SECURITY SHOULD BE OKAY, TOO

If liberals think it is okay to use race, gender, sexual ID, and age profiles to dole out goodies like affirmative action and set asides for government contracts, then we should also be allowed to use profiling to defend ourselves from people who want to kill us.

It is hypocritical to say it is okay for promoting some people, but not okay for protecting all people.

THE DONALD: MAKING AMERICA GLEET AGAIN


I TRUST TRUMP AS FAR AS I CAN THROW A CAR

FEDERAL AUTHORITIES SHUT DOWN INVESTIGATION THAT COULD'VE PREVENTED SAN BERNARDINO BLOODBATH

A former DHS official told Fox News how the authorities closed down a serious investigation he was working on that could've prevented bloodshed (Hat tip: Liberty Unyielding):
A former Department of Homeland Security agent says that an investigation he was conducting into a fundamentalist Islamic group operating in the U.S. may have helped stop San Bernardino jihadi Syed Farook had the government not shut down his probe.

During an interview with Fox News’ Megyn Kelly on Thursday, Philip Haney said that in 2012 as an agent with U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s National Targeting Center, he opened an investigation into a Sunni Islamic group called, Tablighi Jamaat, a subset of the fundamentalist Deobandi movement.

But Haney said that just a year into the investigation it was shut down by the State Department and the Homeland Security Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties.

The reason the investigation was quashed? Because the federal government did not want to profile Islamic groups, Haney told Kelly.
Read the rest. This is truly abominable, and will only erode trust in authorities to protect the public from jihadism.

IF ISRAEL'S GOT SHARIA COURTS, THAT'S BAD, BUT SO IS THE INDIRECT HAREDI SUPPORT FOR HOW THEY'RE MANAGED

According to this JTA article, there's sharia courts running in Israel. But no less troubling is the possible reasons why the Haredi parties opted to block appointment of female judges to these particular courts:
Haredi Orthodox government ministers are blocking a bill that would allow female appointees to state Islamic law courts in Israel.

The bill — proposed by Arab Knesset members from the Zionist Union, Meretz and the Joint List — would allow at least one woman to serve among the 11 judges on the state sharia courts, according to Haaretz. Health Minister Yaakov Litzman, who heads the Ashkenazi haredi Orthodox United Torah Judaism party, fears the law will create a precedent to allow female judges on state Jewish law courts, which United Torah Judaism opposes.
It's galling that sharia courts are allowed here - presumably just because there's Judaist courts - but depending on your POV, what's disturbing is the reasons why UTJ's ministers opposed it - because they loathe progress for women in their community.
Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked initially supported the bill, but the government coalition will oppose it per Litzman’s wishes. Three members of the Joint List, the Knesset’s Arab party, also oppose the bill. Female judges serve on sharia courts elsewhere in the Muslim world, including in the Palestinian Authority.

“As opposed to the support we received from the ministers, headed by Ayelet Shaked, the religious MKs vetoed it and said that according to the coalition agreement they have a veto on religious issues,” Meretz lawmaker Issawi Freij, one of the bill’s sponsors, told Haaretz. “They’re also using their veto for Muslim affairs, for fear that tomorrow it will serve as a precedent in the rabbinical courts.”
I advise against taking the above about female judges in sharia courts outside Israel at face value. If they're not allowed to serve in Saudi Arabia and Iran, for example, then it's doubtful they're allowed under the PLO either. And for now, the Haredi parties are setting a terrible example of opposing women in authoritative positions because of their backwards viewpoint that isn't all that different from the Muslim world, or other regimes with similar mindsets.

QATARI IN TEXAS KEPT SLAVES AT HIS HOUSE

Another case of human slavery run by a Muslim turned up in the USA:
A military official from Qatar and his wife, accused by prosecutors of keeping two servants in slave-like conditions while they lived in Texas, face deportation after pleading guilty in federal court on Friday to lesser charges.

Hassan Al-Homoud, 46, pleaded guilty to visa fraud and his wife, Zainab Al-Hosani, 39, a citizen of the United Arab Emirates, pleaded guilty to knowing that a felony was taking place but failing to report it, the US Attorney's Office for the Western District of Texas said.

They will be sentenced in February and likely deported at that time, a federal judge said, adding he would have handed down a harsher sentence but could not since the servants refused to testify against the couple.

The two, who remain free on bond, could have faced up to 20 years in prison on charges of engaging in forced labor.

Al-Homoud was undergoing military training at Camp Bullis, an Army post near San Antonio. He and his wife brought the servants with them from Bangladesh and Indonesia.

Prosecutors said the couple kept the servants in primitive conditions, withholding wages and providing them with only limited amounts of food. They also took their passports to ensure they would not try to escape.

"I want the parties to know that this court was prepared to try this case but it made it difficult when the two victims did not want to go forward," US District Judge Orlando Garcia, visibly upset, said in court.

As part of the plea agreement, Garcia is expected to order the couple to pay each of the servants $60,000 and to leave the United States and never come back.

Gerald Goldstein, the couple's defense lawyer, assured the judge they would leave the country within hours of sentencing.
It's regrettable they're making a plea bargain, and that the slaves may have been too scared to testify. The couple should both rot in prison, but here, they're being allowed to leave the USA provided they remain exiled.
