MORE PROOF OBAMA CAVED INTO THE PAKISTANIS AND THE ISI AND TALIBAN

"WASH POST: CIA idles drone flights from base in Pakistan"
The CIA three months ago suspended its long-standing use of an air base in Pakistan as a launch site for armed drones targeting members of al-Qaeda and other militant groups, according to U.S. and Pakistani officials.

U.S. personnel and Predator drones remain at the facility, in the southwestern province of Baluchistan, with security provided by the Pakistani military, officials from both countries said. In recent days, Pakistan has publicly declared that it “ended” all U.S. flights from the base in the wake of the secret U.S. commando raid that killed al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in May.

But U.S. and Pakistani officials said the aircraft launches were halted in April, weeks before the bin Laden raid, after a dispute over a CIA contractor who fatally shot two Pakistani citizens in Lahore in January. An American official said the CIA’s decision to suspend the launches was part of a U.S. effort to “pay attention to the sensitivities” of the Pakistanis, who had objected to a claim of diplomatic immunity for the contractor.

Although Pakistan has continued to voice sharp public criticism over the shootings and the bin Laden raid, officials from both countries said the rupture in their intelligence cooperation has slowly begun to heal. Pakistan has reversed its freeze on visas for U.S. intelligence officials, they said, and allowed dozens of CIA personnel to reenter the country.
THIS IS AN OUTRAGEOUS EXAMPLE OF APPEASEMENT.

DID IT MAKE THE PAKIS MORE HELPFUL JUST AFTER THE BIN LADEN RAID?

NOPE:

THEY GOT CLOSER TO CHINA AND HAVE RUN MORE INTERFERENCE ON BEHALF OF THEIR STOOGES IN THE TALIBAN, WHOSE ATTACKS HAVE INCREASED IN BOTH FREQUENCY AND INTENSITY SINCE BIN LADEN WAS ASSASSINATED.

BY REFUSING TO TAKE A TOUGHER STAND WITH PAKISTAN, OBAMA IS EITHER AN AWFUL AND INEPT COMMANDER IN CHIEF, OR IS DELIBERATELY HELPING THE ISI AND TALIBAN.

AS IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH, OBAMA ANNOUNCED WE'RE WITHDRAWING PREMATURELY, AND IN A WAY THAT IS NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANY STRATEGY PROPOSED BY ANYONE AT THE PENTAGON.

OBAMA IS EITHER DOING HIS BEST TO MAKE SURE WE LOSE, OR HE IS SIMPLY NOT UP TO THE TASK AT HAND - WITH NEITHER THE COURAGE OR RESOLVE TO DO WHAT MUST BE DONE.

EITHER WAY, HE HAS PROVEN HIMSELF UNFIT FOR THE OFFICE.

WATCH IT AND WEEP


Think what you will of Mark Dice. The above video is a jaw dropper.

ZOA asks Delta to end its relations with Saudi Arabia

The ZOA has confronted Delta Airlines over kowtowing to Saudi discrimination:
The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) on Wednesday asked Delta Air Lines to end its new 'Sky Team' alliance with Saudi Arabian Airlines, saying it would lead to discriminatory practices against Jewish travelers.

The request was made in writing to Delta CEO Richard H Anderson after his company effectively washed its hands of any responsibility for discrimination its Sky Team partners may engage in.

"We write on behalf of the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), the oldest and one of the largest pro-Israel organizations in the US, regarding Delta Air Lines’ decision to add Saudi Arabian Airlines to its SkyTeam in 2012," The letter began.

The ZOA letter then outlined Delta's and Saudi Arabian Airlines' respective policies, noting the official website of the Saudi Supreme Commission of Toursim "reflected that it was the policy of the Saudi Arabian government to deny visas to, among others, (1) anyone holding an Israeli passport or holding a passport with an Israeli arrival or departure stamp; and (2) 'Jewish People.'"

A US State Department report on Saudi Arabia was also referenced in the letter.

"According to the State Department, women visitors must be met by an authorized sponsor upon arriving in Saudi Arabia. A married woman must have her husband’s permission to leave Saudi Arabia – even if she is a US citizen and even if her husband does not have Saudi nationality. In addition, homosexuals are not welcome in Saudi Arabia. They have been imprisoned and even executed in Saudi Arabia," the ZOA wrote.

The ZOA, citing these facts, then asked Anderson to terminate Delta's agreement with Saudi Arabian Airlines.

Delta issued an official statement on Wednesday saying that it does not support discriminatory policies based on race, religion, gender, nationality, or age.
Sorry, but as long as they ally themselves with the Saudis and tolerate their discrimination, no sale.
The airline also explained the terms of its agreement with the Saudi carrier are limited to booking services and "simply allow passengers to book tickets on multiple carriers."

While acknowledging Delta's explanation of the terms, the Zionist Organization of America, in its letter, "urge(s) Delta to retract its decision to add Saudi Arabian Airlines to its SkyTeam because, quite simply, it is the moral, ethical and right thing to do."

Saudi Arabian carriers regularly enact their country's discriminatory policies against Jews, other non-Muslims, and women.
Unless Delta can prove they're able to drop this sick alliance, their business is one worth boycotting and saving money on.

UNREAL: ASSAD HAS SLAUGHTERED 2000 AND ALL HILLARY CAN SAY IS... "Syria running out of time to implement reforms..."

INEPT, IMMORAL, INSANE. DID I SAY IMMORAL!? WE SHOULD BE TARGETING ASSAD AND IS INNER CIRCLE FOR ELIMINATION, NOT ASKING THEM TO "REFORM" AFTER THEY'VE SLAUGHTERED 200 OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE AND JAILED AND TORTURED COUNTLESS OTHERS.

IF OBAMA AND HIS CROWD AREN'T EVIL, THEN THEY MIGHT AS WELL BE. THEY CANLT EVEN BRING THEMSELVES TO SAY "ASSAD MUST GO!"

WHAT PIECES OF IMMORAL CRAP.

CHINA'S DA BOMB!

Obama's Musical Chairs

With the departure of Gates from the Pentagon, the White House has asked Panetta to leave the CIA to head up the Pentagon and Petraeus is now positioned to take over the CIA.

IMHO this shift reveals two things: the obvious - that the CIA and Military are closely cooperating in the conduct of WWIV; and the Obamaesque - that the President will use his operative Panetta to placate the left wing of his Party by diminishing the visibility of the Military Campaign, while Petraeus will (hopefully!) ramp up the clandestine war on Terror.

MORE PROOF THAT OBAMA IS A FILTHY PIECE OF CR*P

CALLING OBAMA A "DICK" JUST DOESN'T REALLY CAPTURE HIS VILE, REPUGNANT NATURE AT ALL, HERE'S WHY:

OBAMA WILL GLADLY TALK WITH THE TALIBAN AND HAPPILY CHAT WITH THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD IN EGYPT, BUT HE WILL NOT MEEY WITH THE SENATE GOP IN DC.

THAT TELLS YOU ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS INEPT, IMMORAL CORRUPT, GOLF-PLAYING, LYING, LEFT-WING PIECE OF SH*T.

CALIFORNIA GRAY WHALE MAKES ALIYA TO ISRAEL

Remember Jonah!? Is this an omen?

CBS/SF:

The sighting of a gray whale off the coast of Israel ... on May 8, 2010, spotted off the coast of Israel in the Mediterranean Sea, according to San Diego’s CBS affiliate.

“We actually think it belongs to what’s known as the California population of gray whales and that it’s actually a stray,” said Dr. David Weller of the NOAA Southwest Fisheries.

Scientists believe the Mediterranean sighting may signal a change in migration for the species. Grey whales have not been spotted in the Atlantic since the 18th Century when they became extinct there for unknown reasons.

“We may see a reoccupation of the Atlantic by species that haven’t been there in quite some time,” Dr. Weller said.

SOMEBODY WARN THE ATLANTIC KRILL...

BTW: neither krill or whale meat is kosher.

OBAMA AND HOLDER DROP CHARGES IN 99 INTERROGATION CASES BUT CONTINUE WITH FULL CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS IN 2 CASES IN WHICH DETAINEES DIED

Wash Post:

A federal prosecutor has expanded his inquiry into harsh CIA interrogation practices during the Bush administration and is conducting a full criminal investigation into the deaths of two detainees, U.S. officials said Thursday.

At the same time, Assistant U.S. Attorney John Durham has concluded that no charges will be filed in the interrogations of 99 other detainees who were in U.S. custody after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said. At Holder’s request, Durham has been examining the actions of CIA interrogators and contractors at “black site” prisons for nearly two years.

Although officials would not identify the two detainees, sources said a Durham-led federal grand jury in Alexandria has been looking into the death of Manadel al-Jamadi, a suspected bomb-maker who died in November 2003 in Iraq’s Abu Ghraib prison while in CIA custody . He had been beaten by Navy SEALS. One SEAL was charged in connection with his death but was acquitted.

Sources have said Durham is also closely examining the death of Gul Rahman, a young Afghan man who was beaten and chained to a concrete floor without blankets at a secret CIA facility north of Kabul. He died in November 2002 at a place known as the Salt Pit. A team of career federal prosecutors earlier declined to file charges in both cases, but Durham is looking at them anew.

REPEAT: A team of career federal prosecutors earlier declined to file charges in both cases, but Durham is looking at them anew.

IT IS TRULY OUTRAGEOUS THAT OBAMA AND HOLDER REOPENED ANY OF THESE 101 CASES.

AND THAT THEIR CONTINUING WITH TWO.

THE INTERROGATORS ARE ALL HEROES, NOT CRIMINALS.

THIS ANTI-AMERICAN ATTACK ON OUR CIA HAS BEEN A COLOSSAL WASTE OF MONEY AND RESOURCES - ONE THAT ONLY SERVED THE ENEMY AND THEIR ENABLERS IN THE POSTMODERN LEFT.

SICKENING.

WE HAVE A PRESIDENT AND AN ATTORNEY GENERAL WHO ARE MORE CONCERNED WITH HOW WE LOOK TO THE ENEMY AND TO THE LEFT, THAN IN PROTECTING US AND OUR ALLIES.

SICKENING.

JUNE 2011 IS THE DEADLIEST MONTH FOR US TROOPS IN IRAQ SINCE 2009

Wash Post:
Three U.S. soldiers were killed Wednesday in a rocket attack at a U.S.base near the Iranian border, the military said, bringing the month’s death toll to 15 and marking the bloodiest month since June 2009, according to a Web site that tracks U.S. military deaths.
THE FRUITS OF APPEASEMENT: THE MORE THE ENEMY FEELS WE ARE RETREATING AND SHOWING A LACK OF RESOLVE AND COURAGE, THE MORE THEY WILL ATTACK.

THEY ARE DOING THIS IN IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN - THANKS TO OBAMA.

IT IS NO COINCIDENCE THAT THE ISLAMIC RADICALS ARE ALSO ON THE MOVE IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

IT IS NO COINCIDENCE THAT THEY ENEMY HAS SURGED SINCE OBAMA WAS ELECTED.

HIS FOREIGN POLICY IS A DISASTER.

THE JOINT CHIEFS KNOW IT. AND THE ENEMY KNOWS IT.

IT'S TIME THE LAST FEW PATRIOTS IN THE DEMOCRAT PARTY ADMITTED IT.

THEY SHOULD BE CHALLENGING OBAMA THEY WAY SOME IN THE PARTY ONCE CHALLENGED LBJ.

JIHADIST SITE WAS OBLITERATED

A jihadist website was wiped out:
WASHINGTON (AP) - A popular jihadist Internet forum has been knocked off the Internet, and counterterrorism experts say it appears it was hacked.

Cybersecurity analysts say the al-Shamukh forum appears to have been taken down by a fairly sophisticated cyberattack that hit not only the website, but the server - which is the main computer that enables people to access the site over the Internet.

Evan Kohlmann, a counterterrorism expert who tracks jihadist websites as a senior partner with Flashpoint Partners consultancy in New York, described the site as a key al-Qaida propaganda forum.

He said it bounces around between Internet hosts every few months, but has seemingly been allowed to exist as an open secret, possibly allowing a Western government to use it as an intelligence resource.

"These sites can be like spy satellites, they're great ways of gathering information about your adversaries," he said in an interview late Wednesday. "Bringing them down is like shooting at your own spy satellites. But there are others who don't agree with that."

He said there's been a "struggle behind the scenes" in the U.S. government about whether to allow the site to stay up.

Other cyber experts agreed that the site is a popular jihadist forum.

"The al-Shamukh website had become the most trusted and exclusive haunt for e-jihadists," said Jarret Brachman, a terrorism expert who has spent a decade monitoring al-Qaida's media operations and advises the U.S. government. "If it doesn't come back up soon, the forum's registered members will start migrating to the half a dozen other main forums, all of whom are probably chomping at the bit to replace Shamukh as the pre-eminent al-Qaida forum."

The Defense Department said late Wednesday that it was aware of reports that al-Qaida's Internet operations had been disrupted, but could not comment on the specific incident.

Kohlmann raised the possibility that a government could be behind the website's problems.

If true, this would not be the first time that government officials have sabotaged an al-Qaida website.

U.S. and British officials have acknowledged that British intelligence authorities launched a cyberattack against al-Qaida's English-language Internet magazine, Inspire, taking down directions for bomb-making and replacing them with cupcake recipes.

U.S. authorities had considered knocking the magazine off the Internet but realized it would just go down for a few days, then reappear, according to one U.S. official. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue, said the U.S. believed it was more productive to keep an eye on the site and glean intelligence from it.

Kohlmann said chatter from another message board known to be frequented by al-Qaida members confirmed that there was a technical problem with the al-Shamukh forum website and that the outage wasn't intentional, such as performing site maintenance.

The fact that the forum wasn't knocked out sooner is revealing. Forcing a website offline can be a relatively easy matter. A so-called denial-of-service attack, which floods a website's servers with enormous amounts of webpage requests is a popular hacking activity. But it apparently wasn't used in this instance. Instead, cyber experts said it was a more complex attack.

Keynote Systems Inc., a San Mateo, Calif.-based company that specializes in measuring Internet and cellphone network response times, confirmed that the site was completely down from 14 cities around the world.

Based on the kind of error the site was giving people who tried to view the site, it is likely that someone stole the domain name and caused traffic to go to the wrong server, or that someone got access to the system and directed it to not return content, said Dan Berkowitz, spokesman for Keynote.

Kohlmann said it appears that the people who control the website were diligent about backing up the content, so it could be back online soon.

NBC News first reported the site was hacked Wednesday.
If the al Qaeda terrorists who were running the site are ready to load it again, that's why all concerned must be ready to stop them again.

UNREAL: OBAMA INITIATES DIRECT TALKS WITH EGYPT'S MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD

THE DAILY STAR/LEBANON:
The United States has decided to resume formal contacts with the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, a senior U.S. official said Wednesday, in a step that reflects the Islamist group’s growing political weight but that is almost certain to upset Israel and its U.S. backers.
I GUESS OBAMA WANTS TO DO THIS BECAUSE OUR CHATS WITH THE TALIBAN ARE GOING SO WELL. SHEESH.

OBAMA IS EITHER AN EFFIN IDIOT OR TREACHEROUS TRAITOR, (LIKE HUMA ABEDIN?).

ANTI-DEMOCRATIC/ANTI-WESTERN FORCES SHOULD BE QUARANTINED IF NOT ERADICATED AND NOT APPEASED.

MORE PROOF THAT THE AMAZON JUNGLE WASN'T ALWAYS A "PRISTINE UNSPOILED" FOREST

DISCOVER:
... in recent years archaeologists have uncovered evidence of ancient, densely populated settlements throughout the basin, hinting at societies far larger and more advanced than previously thought.

Some of the most eye-opening new research comes from the western Amazon, where archaeologist Denise Schaan of the Federal University of Pará in Brazil has mapped clusters of mysterious land sculptures dug between 700 and 2,000 years ago. The purpose of the 269 circular and rectangular earthworks, scattered over a 15,000-square-mile area, remains unknown, but Schaan suspects they were ceremonial platforms (pdf). “These earthworks could only have been built by large, coordinated populations,” she says.
"LARGE POPULATIONS" MEANS THAT THE FOREST WAS SMALER THEN. MANAGED.

THEREFORE, ALL THE BS ABOUT HOW WE HAVE TO PROTECT THE AMAZON IS JUST THAT: BS. TFBS.

ALL LEFT-WING ANTI-INDUSTRIALIZATION BS. AND PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD ARE POORER AS A DIRECT RESULT.

MORE BANK FRAUD IN AFGHANISTAN

NYTIMES:
According to Rahmatullah Nazari, the deputy attorney general, authorities arrested Sherkhan Farnood, the former chairman of Kabul Bank, and Khalilulah Frozi, its former chief executive officer, on Wednesday in connection with what he said was hundreds of millions of dollars in fraudulent loans to bank officers and insiders.

The attorney general has also brought charges against the governor of Afghanistan’s Central Bank, Abdul Qadir Fitrat, accusing him of taking millions in bribes to overlook the Kabul Bank fraud. Mr. Fitrat fled to the United States just before those charges were brought, saying he feared for his life because of his efforts to expose the fraud.
I BETCHYA THAT NEARLY ALL OF THIS MONEY IS US TAX DOLLARS.

THIS IS ALMOST ALWAYS WHAT HAPPENS TO AID MONEY AND STATE CONTROLLED BANKS AND PHONY PROPPED UP MARKETS.

I IMAGINE IN THAT CHINA THE LEVEL OF BANK FRAUD - PHONY LOANS - IS EVEN WORSE.

WHEN BANKERS RISK THEIR OWN MONEY, THERE'S LESS STEALING AND FRAUD.

IF MUSLIM PRAYER IS INCITEMENT, THEN...

... ISN'T ISLAM SEDITION - IN A PLURALIST DEMOCRACY? I THINK SO.

AND MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT: MUSLIM PRAYERS ARE LITTERED WITH INCITEMENT. AND I DO MEAN LITTERED.

AND I AM NOT ADVOCATING ERADICATING ALL MUSLIMS - (OR EVEN DEPORTING THEM... YET).

JUST AS IT WAS POSSIBLE TO CALL FOR TOTAL WAR ON NAZISM AND MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO ANNIHILATE NAZISM WITHOUT KILLING EVERY NAZI LET ALONE EVERY GERMAN, SO TOO SHOULD IT BE ACCEPTABLE TO CALL FOR THE ERADICATION OF ISLAMISM WITHOUT BEING CALLED... WELL, ER... UM... A NAZI.

AND ISLAM IS MORE THAN MERELY THREAT TO DEMOCRACY AND PLURALISM IN THE WEST.

ISLAM IS A THREAT TO MUSLIM WOMEN, TOO:

THERE IS ONLY ONE BIGGER VIOLATOR OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE ENTIRE WORLD THAN ISLAM. CHINA. AND AT LEAST THEY LIKE LIFE MORE THAN DEATH.

UH-OH: URANIUM SMUGGLERS ARRESTED IN MOLDOVA

YIPES:

Police in ex-Soviet Moldova have arrested six suspected traffickers in radioactive materials and seized Uranium-235 which can be used to make nuclear weapons, officials said on Wednesday.

"On Monday police arrested in Chisinau six people seeking a buyer for a small amount of uranium," the country's Prosecutor General, Vitalie Briceag, told AFP.

"The police have learnt that they had found a potential customer, a citizen of a Muslim country in Africa," he said.

A MUSLIM!?!? THE RELIGION OF PEACE!?!?! CAN'T BE.

SF MIGHT NOW TRY TO BAN PETS

BBC:

The US city of San Francisco is weighing a proposal to ban the sale of pets within its borders.

Supporters say the ban would prevent needless suffering of animals, often bought on impulse by parents of children who soon tire of them.

The city's pet stores say the ban would put them out of business while doing nothing to prevent residents from purchasing pets elsewhere.

The move was proposed by an animal welfare advisory board.

BANNING PETS!?!? POSTMODERN LEFTOID UTOPIANISTS ARE INSANE.

MORE PROOF THAT RAISING TAXES HURTS PROPSERITY AND ECONOMIC GROWTH

FOR EVERY ACTION THERE'S A REACTION, AND THE REACTION TO HIGHER TAXES IS LESS GROWTH.

CALIFORNIA AND AMAZON PROVIDE ANOTHER EXAMPLE.

ZOMBIE CHAVEZ PUTS RUMORS TO REST

Supporters of Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez have hailed the release of new footage of the socialist leader as proof he was recovering well from surgery in Cuba despite speculation he may have cancer.

As rumours about Mr Chavez's disappearance from public view since the 10 June operation reached a climax, both governments put out new video and photographs of him walking and chatting with revolutionary leader Fidel Castro.

The new images don't disprove the most extreme rumour - that Mr Chavez has prostate cancer - but they do support the official line that he is simply recuperating from an operation to remove a pelvic abscess.

SIGH: CHAVEZ IS A DEMON AND IF HE DISSAPPEARED THE WORLD WOULD BE ABETTER PLACE. THE SOONER THE BETTER.

HMMM: THREE DAYS LATER AND THE HARIRI INDICTMENTS STILL HAVEN'T BEEN ANNOUNCED...

... THIS DELAY IS MERELY ANOTHER CHAPTER FROM THE ANNALS OF COWARDICE AND APPEASEMENT.

SICKENING. MEANWHILE, ASSAD, NO DOUBT AN ACCOMPLICE TO THE ASSASSINATION, SLAUGHTERS HIS OWN PEOPLE WHILE THE WORLD DOES BUPKUS.

SICKENING.

POLL: 67% OF EGYPTIANS FAVOR GOOD RELATIONS WITH ISRAEL

DAILY STAR/LEBANON:
Two-thirds of Egyptians think their country should keep a peace treaty with its neighbor Israel, a government poll indicated Tuesday.

The study, conducted by the Cabinet’s Information and Decision Support Center, showed 67 percent of respondents believed it was important to uphold the 1979 Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty, state news agency MENA said.

SURPRISINGLY GOOD NEWS FOR THE WEST.

BUT IT MAY PORTEND CIVIL WAR: THE 33% WHO OPPOSE GOOD RELATIONS WITH ISRAEL ARE LIKELY VERY SYMPATHETIC TO THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD.

AND JIHADISTS LIKE THEM ARE USED TO TERRORIZING THE MAJORITY; IT'S THEIR SOP.

STAY TUNED...

IS HUMA ABEDIN A MOLE FOR THE JIHAD?

WHY ELSE WOULD SHE MARRY AN UGLY JEWISH DORK?

HER JOB AS AIDE TO HILLARY IS AN IDEAL PLACE FROM WHICH TO SPY.

JUST ASKING...

AFTER ALL, SHE IS A MUSLIM WITH FAMILY TIES TO THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD.

THE SOCIAL NETWORKING BUBBLE IS BURSTING: MySpace sold for 1/16th of what is was last purchased for

News Corporation Sells MySpace for $35 Million
MySpace, the long-suffering Web site that the News Corporation bought six years ago for $580 million, was sold on Wednesday to the advertising targeting firm Specific Media for roughly $35 million.

The News Corporation, which is controlled by Rupert Murdoch, had been trying since last winter to rid itself of the unprofitable site. In preparation for the change in ownership, many of MySpace’s roughly 400 employees were dismissed on Wednesday. Mike Jones, the Web site’s chief executive, said in an internal memorandum that he would depart in the next two months.

The sale closes a complex chapter in the history of the Internet and of the News Corporation, which was widely envied by other media companies when it bagged MySpace in 2005. At that time MySpace was the world’s fastest-growing social network, with 20 million unique visitors each month in the United States. That figure soon soared to 70 million, but the network could not keep pace with Facebook, which overtook MySpace two years ago.
This is just the beginning of a re-evaluation of ALL social networking sites.

I feel they are ALL over-valued and that the bubble will soon burst.

Jihad Bio-Terror? Egyptian Seeds Linked to European E. Coli Outbreaks

From the New York Times:

European health officials have cautiously identified contaminated fenugreek seeds from Egypt as a probable common link between the devastating E. coli outbreak in Germany and a smaller outbreak in France, saying that there was still much uncertainty about “whether this is truly the common cause of all the infections.”  
A report by the European Food Safety Authority on Wednesday said that sprouts grown from fenugreek seeds imported from Egypt in 2009 and 2010 “are implicated in both outbreaks.”
JIHAD - OR JUST FILTHY DISGUSTING HYGIENE?

ARMANI TELLS IT LIKE IT IS: MANY BIG NAME FASHION HOUSES MAKE RIDICULOUS MEN'S CLOTHING FOR CLOWNS















WWD:
After his men’s show last week, Armani contended that houses such as Prada and Dolce & Gabbana make men look ridiculous and blamed the press for not being more critical about clownish styles that men don’t wear.

One reason, he said, is that “fashion today is in the hands of the banks and of the stock market and not of their owners,” stressing how he doesn’t need to do an IPO because his company is independent and doesn’t have any debt, and that his clothes make men look more handsome and elegant.
ARMANI IS CORRECT: MUCH OF WHAT PASSES FOR FASHION - UNCRITICIZED IN THE MSM - IS NOTHING MORE THAN OUTRAGEOUS FLIM-FLAMMERY DESIGNED NOT TO BE BE WORN, BUT TO GAIN SOME NOTORIETY.

AND WHAT MAKES IT WORSE IS THAT IN OUR POST-MODERN CULTURE NOTORIETY IS NO LONGER DISDAINED.

IN TODAY'S POSTMODERN DOMINATED WORLD THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NOTORIETY AND CELEBRITY.

IOW: THE IDIOTIC FASHIONS ARE SYMPTOMS OF A DEEPLY DECADENT IMMORAL POSTMODERN CULTURE.

ONE THAT NEEDS SAVING.

JOHN LENNON A CLOSET CONSERVATIVE

He came to his senses some years after he wrote "Imagine":
John Lennon was a closet Republican, who felt a little embarrassed by his former radicalism, at the time of his death - according to the tragic Beatles star's last personal assistant.

[...]

"...He did express support for Reagan...

[...]

"...He had moved away from his earlier radicalism...."
In other words, John Lennon grew up.

RAED SALAH TO BE DEPORTED FROM UK

Updating this story, it's now been reported that the inciteful Muslim cleric Raed Salah has been arrested and will be deported from Britain:
The UK Home Office confirmed on Wednesday that head of the Islamic Movement's northern branch, Raed Salah, was been detained by the UK Border Agency and is set to be deported.

The Islamist leader was set to address an event in the UK Parliament on Wednesday, organized by Labor party MPs, and pro-Palestinian activists Jeremy Corbyn and Richard Burden together with the anti-Israel fringe group Palestine Solidarity Campaign.

UK Home Office Minister Theresa May said that arrangements were now being made to deport Salah from the UK.

"We do not normally comment on individual cases but in this case I think it is important to do so. Salah’s presence in the UK has caused controversy. The Home Office had excluded him for his anti-Semitic views yet he was able to enter the country on Saturday unchallenged.

"I can confirm he was excluded and that he managed to enter the UK. He has now been detained and the UK Border Agency is now making arrangements to remove him," May said.

"A full investigation is now taking place into how he was able to enter."
Oh, we can guess: some of the lowliest officials decided to insult sensible peoples' intellects and allow that awful man into the country. And just look where he was scheduled to go. Shudder.
The Islamic Movement on Wednesday reacted to news of the arrest of its northern branch leader, blaming the "Jewish lobby" for the arrest in order to protect the "Zionist narrative."

"Since Salah received the invitation to come to Britain, the Jewish lobby went crazy and did everything in its power to prevent the visit, so that the Zionist narrative remains the only narrative," the movement said in a statement.
Boy, look who's talking. The movement who build themselves upon insanity. In the minds of these monsters, Israel has no legitimate right to ask anything. Bleah.

HAMAS PRISONERS CANNOT BE ALLOWED TO USE CELLPHONES

The Israeli government is working on toughening the conditions for terrorists in prison. This also includes cracking down on cellphones that were smuggled into prisons, if you can believe it:
Public Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch on Wednesday said that the government is considering the use of electronic devices to stop the operation of smuggled cell phones by Hamas prisoners in Israeli jails.

The announcement came after Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu vowed last week to toughen the conditions of Hamas prisoners following the Gaza leadership's refusal of a Red Cross request to receive proof that captured IDF soldier Gilad Schalit is alive.

Hamas prisoners are forbidden from using cellular phones but the Prison Service has been only partially successful in preventing the phenomenon, Aharonovitch said. Prisoners use the devices to communicate with Hamas leadership as well as prisoners in other jails.

In response to a query by Likud MK Danny Danon on the Hamas prisoners' conditions, Aharonovitch said that "at the moment we are considering implementing an advanced system that would prevent completely the possibility of prisoners using cellular telephones."

Aharonovitch added that the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) also intended on performing more thorough searches of those visiting the prisoners to prevent further smuggling.

Danon said that the moves were not harsh enough. "We must stop the celebrations inside of our jails," he stated.
So from what we can glean here, they didn't run through enough searches of the visitors' parcels? Good grief. Now, they'd better get on the ball and start acting more responsible.

JAMAICAN POLL EXPOSES THE LEFTIST LIE THAT COLONIALISM WAS AND MUST ALWAYS BE BAD

BBC:

A survey for a Jamaican newspaper suggests most islanders believe the country would have been better off if it had remained a British colony.

The poll, commissioned by The Gleaner, found that 60% of respondents backed this view. But 17% disagreed.

A thousand people took part in the survey, out of a population of 2.7m. The poll has a reported margin of error of plus or minus 4%.

Jamaica is due to celebrate 50 years of independence next year.

I THINK JAMAICANS ARE THE REAL EXPERTS I THIS MATTER, TOO.

THEY ARE PROBABLY NOT ALONE: MANY NATIONS WERE BETTER OFF UNDER BRITISH RULE THAN THEY HAVE BEEN AS INDEPENDENT NATIONS. AND HONG KONG WAS BETTER BEFORE IT WAS REABSORBED BY CHINA.

OTHERS ARE BETTER OFF FOR HAVING ONCE BEEN COLONIES - LIKE INDIA.

LEFTISTS ARE KNEE-JERK, BLANKET ANTI-COLONIALISTS AND THIS IS AS IDIOTIC AS BEING AGAINST ALL BLACKS OR ALL WHITES OR ALL RICH OR ALL POOR.

BACKWARD, CORRUPT, LESSER DEVELOPED ECONOMIES AND CULTURES ALL BENEFITED FROM BRITISH INVOLVEMENT IN THEIR ECONOMIES AND CULTURES.

People in the same tribe share many things, but each is unique.

People in the same race share a lot, but each is unique.

People are different.

People are unique.

People are not equal.

Except before the law.

When we judge a person because of what race s/he belongs to - or which tribe or what family - then we are misjudging them.

When we allocate jobs or positions or admissions based on an individual membership in any "genre" - be it race or mobility status, or gender or age - then we are not treating them as unique individuals, and that is morally wrong.

If strength or IQ or speed or training is central to the ob at hand, then these aspects should be the only ones examined, and not race or gender or age.

That's why quotas and affirmative action and all other schemes to predetermine outcomes is morally reprehensible.

We should celebrate our unicity and not trample it in the name of some misguided notion of fairness or redistribution.

There is is just way for each of us to attain what we want and need in this world; it's simple; it is, "TO EACH ACCORDING TO HIS ABILITY."

This is what Dr. Martin Luther King - the christianist - yearned for when he said this:
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
We need to get back to that core idea.

We need to reject any ideology which prejudges individuals and predetermines outcomes.

It is immoral. It is bad economics. It is anti-American.

PREMATURE WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN: GENERALISSMO OBAMA OVERULED PETRAEUS

FOX:

Marine Lt. Gen. John Allen, nominated to replace Gen. David Petraeus as head of coalition forces in Afghanistan, acknowledged Tuesday that President Obama’s decision to draw down 10,000 troops by the end of this year and the rest of the surge forces by September 2012 was not one of the options proposed to the president by Gen. Petraeus.

The admission came during questioning from Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., during Allen’s nomination hearing in front of the Senate Armed Services committee.

GRAHAM: The option that the country has chosen through President Obama is to withdraw 10,000 this year, all surge forces gone by September. Is it fair to say, General Allen, that was not one of the options presented to the president by General Petraeus?

ALLEN: It is a more aggressive option than that which was presented.

GRAHAM: My question is, was that a option?

ALLEN: It was not.

GRAHAM: So I just want the country to understand that this is not the Petraeus strategy any longer. The commander in chief has the perfect right to do what he did. I just hope that it hasn’t undercut what I think could be a very successful outcome.


AND WTF DOES BHO KNOW ABOUT THE MILITARY!?

ABSO-EFFIN-LUTELY NUTTIN.

SO WHAT ARE THE ODDS THAT HE KNEW BETTER THAN PETRAEUS!?

ZERO.

WE'RE SCREWED.

AND THE RECENT SPATE OF ATTACKS IN AFGHAISTAN PROVES IT - HERE'S THE LATEST ONE:
At least one suicide bomber blew himself up late Tuesday night inside a Western-style hotel in Kabul, police said. A guest said he heard gunfire echoing throughout the five-story building. There was no immediate word on casualties in the rare, nighttime attack in the Afghan capital. Streets leading to the Inter-Continental hotel were blocked. The hotel sits on a hill overlooking Kabul. The scene there was dark as electricity was out at the hotel.
WITH HIS PREMATURE ANNOUNCEMENT OF HIS PREMATURE WITHDRAWAL, OBAMA SENT A MESSAGE TO THE ENEMY: "I HAVE NO RESOLVE; I WILL RETREAT."

THIS IS A DISASTER FOR THE FREE WOLRD.

WE CAN STOP OBAMA'S DISASTROUS POLICIES: ELECT A REPUBLICAN IN 2012.

I HOPE WE MAKE IT TO 2012!

VOLCANO!

ORGANIC FOOD STRIKES AGAIN: DOZENS SICKENED IN THE USA BY SPROUTS!

SOMETHING MUST BE DONE!!!

ORGANIC FOOD HAS KILLED MORE PEOPLE THAN CLIMATE CHANGE.

LUCKILY, THOSE IN THE MOST RECENT ATTACK IN THE USA WERE ONLY SERIOUSLY SICKENED:

An outbreak of salmonella poisoning in salad sprouts has sickened 21 people in the United States but is not connected to the German E. coli outbreak, health authorities said Tuesday.

The illnesses arose between April 12 and June 7 and so far have spanned five states. Three people have been hospitalized and no deaths have been reported, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said in a statement.

I THINK IT'S TIME WE BANNED ORGANIC FOOD; IT'S JUST TOO BIG A THREAT TO CIVILIZATION.

IT MUST GO THE WAY OF TRANSFATS!

Hate Preacher and Banned Terror Supporter Salah allowed Entry to UK!!

"Raed Salah is an obnoxious hate preacher who starts riots. The political party he runs mourned Osama Bin Laden, and called him a “Sheikh” and a “Martyr”. Those who killed him were said to be working for “Satan”.
Salah was rightly excluded by the Home Secretary from the United Kingdom last week.
However, unbelievably, the UK Border Agency failed to stop him from actually getting into this country. He is now touring the UK, and will speak at meetings alongside various Labour Party MPs: Richard Burden, Jeremy Corbyn, and Yasmin Qureshi. Labour peer Alf Dubbs is possibly appearing as well. One of his meetings is being organised by Sarah Apps, the wife of former Labour MP, Martin Linton." 

Salah often speaks at Israeli universities despite multiple convictions on terrorism-related charges.The law offers no solution, as Salah would switch to speaking just outside the campus walls. Rather, the real problem is with the Israeli educators who invite Salah to speak at their universities, allegedly to promote freedom of speech, but really in pursuit of a leftist defeatist agenda. This freedom of speech is for Arabs only: right-wingers are never thus invited to speak at Israeli universities.Salah, a head of the Northern Islamic Movement, leads Israeli Arab resistance to the Jewish state. Despite organizing riots and openly inciting against Jews, he remains free. Jews who have said one hundredth of what Salah is preaching rot in jail for incitement.


WSJ OP-ED BY GEERT WILDERS

Here is an op-ed Geert Wilders has written for the Wall Street Journal (via Ruthfully Yours and Atlas Shrugs) following his acquittal:
Yesterday was a beautiful day for freedom of speech in the Netherlands. An Amsterdam court acquitted me of all charges of hate speech after a legal ordeal that lasted almost two years.

The Dutch people learned that political debate has not been stifled in their country. They learned they are still allowed to speak critically about Islam, and that resistance against Islamization is not a crime. I was brought to trial despite being an elected politician and the leader of the third-largest party in the Dutch parliament. I was not prosecuted for anything I did, but for what I said.

My view on Islam is that it is not so much a religion as a totalitarian political ideology with religious elements. While there are many moderate Muslims, Islam’s political ideology is radical and has global ambitions. I expressed these views in newspaper interviews, op-ed articles, and in my 2008 documentary, “Fitna.”

I was dragged to court by leftist and Islamic organizations that were bent not only on silencing me but on stifling public debate. My accusers claimed that I deliberately “insulted” and “incited discrimination and hatred” against Muslims. The Dutch penal code states in its articles 137c and 137d that anyone who either “publicly, verbally or in writing or image, deliberately expresses himself in any way that incites hatred against a group of people” or “in any way that insults a group of people because of their race, their religion or belief, their hetero- or homosexual inclination or their physical, psychological or mental handicap, will be punished.”

I was dragged to court for statements that I made as a politician and which were meant to stimulate public debate in a country where public debate has stagnated for decades. Dutch political parties see themselves as guardians of a sterile status quo. I want our problems to be discussed. I believe that politicians have a public trust to further debates about important issues. I firmly believe that every public debate holds the prospect of enlightenment.

My views represent those of a growing number of Dutch voters, who have flocked to the Party for Freedom, or PVV. The PVV is the fastest-growing party in the country, expanding from one seat in the 150-seat House of Representatives in 2004, to nine seats in 2006 and 24 seats in 2010. My party’s views, however, are so uncommon in the Netherlands that they are considered blasphemous by powerful elites who fear and resent discussion.

That’s why I was taken to court, even though the public prosecutor saw no reason to prosecute me. “Freedom of expression fulfills an essential role in public debate in a democratic society,” the prosecutors repeatedly said during my trial. “That comments are hurtful and offensive for a large number of Muslims does not mean that they are punishable.”

The Netherlands is one of the few countries in the world where a court can force the public prosecutor to prosecute someone. In January 2009, three judges of the Amsterdam Appeals Court ordered my prosecution in a politically motivated verdict that focused on the content of the case. They implied that I was guilty. The case was subsequently referred to the Amsterdam Court of First Instance.

The judges who acquitted me yesterday already had a peremptory ruling from the appeals court on their desk. They decided, however, to follow the arguments of the public prosecutor, who during the trial had once again reiterated his position and had asked for a full acquittal.

Though I am obviously relieved by yesterday’s decision, my thoughts go to people such as Danish journalist Lars Hedegaard, Austrian human rights activist Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff and others who have recently been convicted for criticizing Islam. They have not been as fortunate. In far too many Western countries, it is still impossible to have a debate about the nature of Islam.

The biggest threat to our democracies is not political debate, nor is it public dissent. As the American judge Learned Hand once said in a speech: “That community is already in the process of dissolution . . . where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists to win or lose.” It has been a tenet in European and American thinking that men are only free when they respect each other’s freedom. If the courts can no longer guarantee this, then surely a community is in the process of dissolution.

Legislation such as articles 137c and 137d of the Dutch Penal Code disgraces our democratic free societies. On the basis of such legislation, I was prevented from representing my million-and-a-half voters in parliament because I had to be in the courtroom for several days, sometimes up to three days per week, during the past year and a half. Such legislation should be abolished. It should be abolished in all Western countries where it exists-and replaced by First Amendment clauses.

Citizens should never allow themselves to be silenced. I have spoken, I speak and I shall continue to speak.
And a warm congratulations on your victory in court, Mr. Wilders. He is throughly correct that the penal codes under which the left and Islamists in Holland tried to stifle him must be thrown out, just like several other poorly calculated laws in various other countries across Europe that have served to damage their liberty. It's a mission that must be undertaken immediately to ensure Europe's safety.

PAKISTAN ASKS BRITISH ARMY TO WITHDRAW SOME TRAINING FORCES

THEY CLAIM FOR THEIR OWN GOOD: THE TALIBAN ARE THREATENING THEM.

IF THEY DO SPLIT, THEN THE TALIBAN WILL ONLY BE EMBOLDENED AND MAKE MORE DEMANDS. AS WILL THEIR BOSSES IN THE ISI!

GOOD PAWLENTY RADIO AD FOR IOWA

IT'S A GOOD AD.

I THINK THAT THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF CANDIDATES IN THE GOP FIELD: THINKERS AND DOERS.

NEWT, PAUL, AND PALIN AND CAIN ARE THINKERS.

ROMNEY, PAWLENTY AND BACHMANN ARE DOERS. AS IS PERRY.

I THINK THE NATION NEEDS A DOER - AND THE MORE CONSERVATIVE THE BETTER.

AS LONG AS S/HE'S ELECTABLE.

Iran unveils underground ballistic missile silos


Iran reveals underground ballistic missile silos

Iran unveiled underground ballistic missile silos for the first time on Monday in a warning to the world of its ability to protect its missiles and secretly store them in hidden locations throughout the country.

State TV broadcast footage of several military officers touring an underground silo that was holding a Shahab 3 ballistic missile. The missile has a range of 2,000 kilometers, putting Israel within its reach, but is powered by liquid fuel, which means that it requires more considerable preparation immediately before launch than a solid rocket.

The unveiling of underground missile silos was confirmation of Israeli and American warnings in recent years that Iran was dispersing its missiles in silos, likely scattered throughout the country.

In the footage, a missile is shown being launched from inside one of the silos, which has large metal doors that open on the surface with the press of a button.
ALL THIS MEANS IS THAT WE WILL HAVE TO HIT THEM HARDER WITH MORE AND IN A SHORTER TIME-SPAN AND WITH LESS WARNING.

GULP, (BUT IT'S DOABLE).

ALL THIS PROVES - ONCE AGAIN - IS THAT APPEASEMENT ONLY DELAYS THE INEVITABLE AND ONLY MAKES IT WORSE THAN IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN IF WE HAD BEGUN EARLIER AND ON OUR TIMETABLE.

SIGH.

HARIRI INDICTMENTS TODAY OR TOMORROW!

AS-INN/ISRAEL:
the Special Tribunal for Lebanon will indict five Hizbullah members for the 14 February 2005 assassination of Prime Minister Rafik Hariri in the coming days.

Lebanese judicial authorities will receive a copy of the STL indictment either Monday or Tuesday, a Western source in Paris told the pan-Arab Al-Hayat on Monday.
DAILY STAR/BEIRUT:

BEIRUT: The court investigating the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri is expected to issue its indictment, naming five Hezbollah members, in the next few days, pan-Arab newspapers reported Monday.

Al-Hayat newspaper, quoting a Western source in Paris, said Lebanese judicial authorities would receive a text of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon indictment either Monday or Tuesday.

The move coincides with a confirmation last week by French sources that the indictment will be issued this week.

IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME, IF NOT LONG LONG LONG LONG OVERDUE! (AHEM, THE GUY WAS ASSASSINATED 6 YEARS AGO!)

THEY SHOULD ALSO INDICT NASRALLAH AND AHMADINEJAD AND ASSAD AND THE RULING COUNCIL OF IRAN - WHO MUST'VE ALL BEEN IN THE LOOP AND THEREFORE ACCESSORIES TO MURDER.

I HOPE THIS STARTS SOMETHING ELSE THAT'S LONG OVERDUE: A REAL ARAB SPRING THAT LIBERATES ARABS FROM ISLAM!

US-IRANIAN "SPACE ENTREPRENEUR" INDICTED FOR AIDING IRAN

MAYBE THIS IS WHY THEIR ROCKET PROGRAM IS DOING SO WELL?

The Justice Department said Modanlo's case is just one of more than 150 filed by prosecutors in the past four years against arms traders and middlemen suspected of helping Tehran illegally acquire U.S. technology. Defendants have been accused of using shell companies, offshore bank accounts and faked end-user certificates to supply Tehran with everything from U.S.-made component parts for missile guidance systems to the ultra-high-strength steel needed to build centrifuges that enrich uranium.

Yet Modanlo's case stands out. Unlike most of those prosecuted under the act, he isn't charged with shipping U.S. technology to Iran. Instead, he is suspected of using his business contacts and aerospace engineering experience to help launch Iran's space program.

Modanlo said he came to the U.S. from the Iranian city of Sari on the Caspian Sea coast in 1979 -- the year of the Islamic revolution, according to interviews with The Washington Post and other publications in the 1990s. After earning degrees in engineering and aeronautics from George Washington University, he worked on projects for the Defense Department and NASA.

Modanlo and business partner Michael Ahan in 1992 founded Final Analysis Inc., based in offices near NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. They planned to loft a network of up to 32 small, low-earth orbiting telecommunications satellites that were designed to provide low-cost messaging and cargo tracking services.

RTWT.

ARE THEY RUNNING OUT OF VIRGINS IN "ISLAMIST HEAVEN"?

ISLAMISTS USE 8 YEAR OLD GIRL AS SUICIDE BOMBER.

THEY HAVE NO RESPECT FOR LIFE OF ANY KIND; THEY ARE EVIL.

THEY SHOULD BE ANNIHILATED USING ALL APPROPRIATE FORCE.

EUROPE'S ANTAGONISM TOWARD THE FREE-MARKET IS EPITOMIZED BY EURO-SOCIALISM'S ANTAGONISM TO THE AUTOMOBILE

NYTIMES:
While American cities are synchronizing green lights to improve traffic flow and offering apps to help drivers find parking, many European cities are doing the opposite: creating environments openly hostile to cars. The methods vary, but the mission is clear — to make car use expensive and just plain miserable enough to tilt drivers toward more environmentally friendly modes of transportation.
HERE IN THE USA, THE AUTOMOBILE EPITOMIZES ONE'S INDEPENDENCE.

IT DOES IN EUROPE TO - WHICH IS WHY THEY WANT TO STAMP IT OUT.

THEY TAX THE CRAP OUT OF GAS TO MAKE IT MORE EXPENSIVE THAN IT HAS TO BE. (IN FACT, GOVERNMENT MAKES MORE ON A GALLON OF GAS THAN BIG OIL!)

AND THEY TAX THE CRAP OUT OF THE SELLING PRICE.

THIS ISN'T HELPING THE EARTH BECAUSE CARS AND CO2 ARE HARMLESS TO THE ENVIRONMENT.

IT INHIBITS THE SALE OF CARS - WHICH CAN NOT ONLY DRIVE A FAMILY AROUND, BUT DRIVE THE ECONOMY.

IF WE WANT THE GLOBAL ECONOMY TO GROW- AND FOR POOR PEOPLE TO PROSPER, THEN WE NEED TO ELIMINATE ALL TAXES ON CARS AND GASOLINE - WORLDWIDE.

IT WOULD WORK IN AN INSTANT.

Middle East and Terrorism: The Dark Muslim Brotherhood World of Huma Abedin

"Frontpage Interview’s guest today is Walid Shoebat, a former PLO terrorist and Muslim Brotherhood activist who is the author of the new book For God or For Tyranny.

FP: Walid Shoebat, welcome to Frontpage.

Shoebat: Thanks for having me.

FP: You were the first to break the news on Huma Abedin, Anthony Weiner’s wife, being linked to her mother Saleha Abedin, who, as you have exposed, has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. First, let me ask you: how credible are your sources?

Shoebat: Al-Liwa Al-Arabi (translated here) leaked an extensive list, which was partially published by Al-Jazeera and several other major Arab newspapers. The detailed list included Huma’s mother, Saleha Abedin.

Another piece of the puzzle and what was common knowledge in the Arab world is that Huma Abedin has a brother named Hassan Abedin who sits in on the board of the Oxford Centre For Islamic Studies (OCIS) where Huma’s brother is a fellow and partners with a number of Muslim Brotherhood members on the Board, including Al-Qaeda associate, Omar Naseef and the notorious Muslim Brotherhood leader Sheikh Youssef Qaradawi; both have been listed as OCIS Trustees. Naseef continues to serve as Board Chairman."

Dad prayed his children would die | Herald Sun

Dad prayed his children would die | Herald Sun: "AN extremist dad living in suburban Australia prayed his children would die as martyrs before puberty so he could enter heaven honourably, a court has been told.

The man sat his daughter, who was not yet three, on his knee to watch videos of executions and suicide bombings, slapping her if she became distressed, his former wife testified.

She said he also had the little girl sing a Jihadi song accompanying the videos.

A federal magistrate accepted the man taught the little girl to 'chant enthusiastically and joyously over the death and mutilation of other human beings'.

It was alleged the man also punched, slapped or kicked his wife if she did not watch the videos.

A Federal Magistrates' Court judgment, published this week, has revealed the man sought access to his two children, now aged 6 and 3.

But the dad, who has been convicted of assaulting his former wife, has been denied time with the children."
