Beethoven's Eroica and Obama


The Eroica Symphony and Napoleon Bonaparte

Originally the work was to be titled the “Bonaparte Symphony” (New Groves), as a tribute to Napoleon Bonaparte, the French Consul who had begun to radically reform Europe after conducting sweeping military campaigns across the continent. In 1804, Napoleon crowned himself emperor, a move which angered Beethoven. As legend has it, the composer ripped through the title page and later renamed the symphony the Eroica because he refused to dedicate one of his pieces to the man he now considered a “tyrant”.



I HOPE MORE FOLKS WILL WAKE UP - AS BEETHOVEN DID ABOUT NAPOLEON - AND SEE OBAMA FOR WHAT HE IS SOON. BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE. BEFORE 2014.

HOW COME PETRAEUS HAD TO RESIGN FOR HAVING AN AFFAIR - BUT CLINTON DIDN'T?

JUST ASKING...

I GUESS IF PETRAEUS HAD BEEN A DEMOCRAT HE'D HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO STAY ON.

OR... IF HIS LAST NAME WAS KENNEDY, THEN HE COULD HAVE EVEN KILLED HER, AND KEPT HIS JOB. OR EVEN COHABIT WITH A MALE PROSTITUTE - OR HAVE SEX WITH A MALE CONGRESSIONAL PAGE IF HE WAS A DEMOCRAT CONGRESSMAN FROM MASSACHUSETTS.

YOU KNOW I'M RIGHT...

JUST SAYING.


Massive voter fraud in Florida: several precincts had more votes cast than registered voters

JFK AND THE DALEY MACHINE STOLE THE 1960 ELECTION.

EVIDENCE IS MOUNTING OBAMA AND CHICAGO MACHINE STOLE THE ELECTION OF 2012.

A FRENCH DEMONSTRATION AGAINST ISLAMOFASCISM IN PARIS

From the Washington Post/AP, news of a positive development:
PARIS — Hundreds of French nationalists have demonstrated in Paris against Islamist extremism, chanting the French anthem and saying the religion has no place in the country.

Protester Romain Cyiril says, “France was always a welcoming country, but for the first time we have to deal with a religion which can’t and doesn’t want to integrate itself.”

Three weeks ago, dozens of far-right French activists stormed an unfinished mosque to protest immigration policies that have made France home to Western Europe’s largest population of Muslims. There are an estimated 5 million or more Muslims in this nation of 65 million, although under French law the government does not track religion.

The French government has denounced anti-Islam extremists.

Saturday’s protest was organized by a nationalist group called the Republican Resistance.
If the government isn't going to respect the public's right to protest totalitarian religions, they should be ashamed of themselves. This is very good that now there's a movement standing up to this monstrosity of a "religion" and making themselves heard and seen. For this, they should be congratulated.

WAS THE ELECTION HACKED?

The Romney-Ryan campaign laid great store in its high-tech Get-Out-The-Vote system, nicknamed "ORCA."

They were counting on using ORCA to coordinate tens of thousands of volunteers in the field, to make sure that Romney-Ryan voters would get to the polls.

And on election day, the system miserably crashed and failed:

Project ORCA was the embodiment of big government, top-down management. Information was sent by volunteers in swing states across the country to Boston, and those in Boston were then tasked with assigning other volunteers in those same swing states to contact those who had not yet been to the polls. Boston was, at best, a detour and an unnecessary middleman in the GOTV efforts, and when that link in the chain broke, Romney’s GOTV effort crumbled on the most crucial day of his campaign. One of the most successful components of Karl Rove’s GOTV efforts with George W. Bush’s campaigns was his small-government ideological approach. Each volunteer was tasked with personally getting a handful of voters from their area to the polls, voters that they were already familiar with from their church, their children’s schools and their community. Instead of this strategy, Boston was the hub; information was sent there and GOTV assignments were delegated from thousands of miles away by Romney staffers largely unfamiliar with individuals and communities. At Ace of Spades, Ekdahl described the organizational approach of Project ORCA: “The bitter irony of this entire endeavor was that a supposedly small government candidate gutted the local structure of GOTV efforts in favor of a centralized, faceless organization in a far off place (in this case, their Boston headquarters).”




Was ORCA’s failure the reason why Romney lost Virginia by almost 116,000 votes, Ohio by 103,000, Iowa by 88,000 or why Florida is still, days later, too close to call? It’s impossible to know what a Romney campaign with working GOTV technology would have been able to accomplish. Ekdahl explained that with the failure of Project ORCA’s organization and its later meltdown on Election Day “30,000+ of the most active and fired-up volunteers were wandering around confused and frustrated when they could have been doing anything else to help. Like driving people to the polls, phone-banking, walking door-to-door, etc.” The possibility that all of the efforts of Romney’s campaign, all of the enthusiasm, went unharnessed and dormant on Election Day when they could’ve at least led to a closer election result, if not a victory, is becoming beyond frustrating for thousands of his staffers, for the millions of Americans who gave their time and money to elect Mitt Romney president as they come to learn just what a disaster ORCA seems to have been.
What if the system had been hacked?  What if a worm, a virus, or other malware had been used by a Democratic Party operative placed like a mole in the Romney-Ryan campaign, in order to bring down the system?

Perhaps the results of the election didn't have as much to do with demographics as some people seem to think.

Perhaps the results were simply the result of a hack.

UKRAINIAN ANTI-SEMITISM

Jew-hatred in Ukraine is rising again:
Historically, Ukrainian anti-Semitism is legend for its crudity, ferocity and intrinsicality. The Ukraine’s reputation for ongoing racism and ever-virulent intolerance is equally well-earned. Jew-revulsion never quite went out of fashion among broad segments of the population there.

So it was not too shocking to learn last week that the extreme nationalist Svoboda (Freedom) party’s fortunes had risen dramatically in the recent elections and that it now controls 41 out of the parliament’s 450 seats.

But there is a far more disturbing aspect to this development. Svoboda did not do equally well in all parts of Ukraine. It garnered most success in the western Ukraine, the parts ripped off Poland after World War II.

In the city of Lviv (which was one-third Jewish before the Holocaust and which Jews know as Lvov or Lemberg), it gained a whopping 50 percent of the vote. In June and July 1941 Ukrainian marauders rampaged through Lvov’s streets and butchered thousands of Jews in two pogroms.

The Svoboda party now fetes these murderers as patriots, along with the Nazi-accomplice Ukrainian Insurgent Army.
Well there's one European country that clearly doesn't want to better itself. This is one of a few eastern European lands where soccer games have been clogged with racist gangs that even antagonize blacks, and has never been willing to come to terms and truly apologize for the repugnant personality they've employed. A country like Ukraine is practically asking for sanctions of their own, just like Iran.

THE PETRAEUS AFFAIR: classic spy stuff and typical Chicago Machine crap



The Petraeus Affair was a cliched, classic set-up - a conspiracy.

The Chicago Machine needed to be able to blackmail him for future use.

Or to cut him off at the knees had he ever decided to run for POTUS.

It's their SOP.

So, last week they must've told Petraeus to testify according to Obama's wishes or be exposed as an adulterer.

He said "EFF YOU!" and chose to expose himself.

The GOP controlled House must now get all the other players to testify under oath first - Hillary, Clapper, Jarrett, Panetta, Brennan, Ham, et al. Even Obama. ESPECIALLY OBAMA!

That way we get them to testify before they can fix their stories in a way that might explain the Petraeus version.... the TRUTH!

Then - after they've lied under oath, Petraeus can come in and tell the truth.

This is feasible because the hearings are in secret and run by the House and the House chairman, Mike Rogers, is great.

OBAMA, ATTLEE AND THE INEVITABLE ECONOMIC DECLINE CAUSED BY SOCIALISM


The inevitable toll of the socialism and nationalism Clement Attlee put in place culminated in the crises and collapse of Britain's economy in the 1970's. It was much like what Greece faces now - and Spain and Italy and Portugal and every other socialist state.

Compare East Germany to west: same language, culture and geography - yet East Germany - with free healthcare, free education, free pensions (and so on) became poorer and poorer as it became less free -- while West Germany became the economic powerhouse of Europe. East Germans became serf's - poor and un-free  -- a people indentured to the state - as the traveled down the road of socialism, the road the serfdom...

Obama's policies are having the same effect on the usa economy as these polices had in East Germany and Attlee's Britain.

NOTE: Neither Greece or Spain or Portugal - (or East Germany or the USSR or Red China or Cuba or Zimbabwe or North Korea for that matter) - had "Bush tax cuts or "2 unfunded wars" or "GOP "top-down' deregulation for the greedy 1%" - as Obama liked to say.

The economic disasters the nations ALL faced were ALL caused by SOCIALISM - which reduces liberty and therefore reduces the prosperity, the economic growth which ONLY liberty produces.

As Obama limits our economic freedom he inevitably destroys our economy, and thereby he also achieves another horrifying result: the weakening of theUSA military and our ability to defend the Free World. This will only embolden Putin and China and Tehran and the Muslim Brotherhood. So, the world will get more dangerous as the USA gets poorer.

It's a double whammy.

NOTE: The NHS is in fact a health disaster - as are all the socialist healthcare schemes in the rest of Europe. IN FACT, the USA has a better longer average lifespans and much lower morbidity rates for ALL major diseases - especially when you equalize for racial/ethnic differences, (blacks have high shorter life spans than whites due to genetic diseases, and they lower the USA life span).

Obama Lost In Every State That Had Voter ID Laws

From Will at THE OTHER NEWS:

Obama lost in every state that requires a photo ID to be produced before voting.

A list of closely contested state elections with no voter ID, which narrowly went to Obama include: Minnesota (10), Iowa (6), Wisconsin (10), Nevada (6), Colorado (9), New Mexico (5) and Pennsylvania (20). 


And yes, that's enough electoral votes to change the result.

YET ANOTHER THING THE MSM KEPT UNDER WRAPS

From this source:
The 2012 Legatum Prosperity Index found that the "American Dream is in jeopardy" and "The national ethos of the U.S. is under threat." The assessment of prosperity is based on material wealth and personal well-being. The Prosperity Index benchmarks countries in eight categories: Economy, Entrepreneurship & Opportunity, Education, Governance, Personal Freedom, Health, Safety & Security, and Social Capital.

The Unites States dropped out of the global prosperity ‘top ten’ for the first time to the twelfth position in the worldwide prosperity rankings and fell eight places in ‘Entrepreneurship & Opportunity’. The assesment found fewer US citizens agree that "hard work gets you ahead."

[...]

The report was first released on October 30, 2012, the group was hoping the report would have "electoral implications" but as always MSM remained silent....
The news media are anything but the news.

THE LIBERAL MIND, SO-CALLED

A liberal I work with was complaining about the gasoline situation on Long Island.

Said it took him until yesterday to find a gas station and be able to fill his tank.

He was really upset that the gas station charged him $4.45/gallon - about .40 cents more than before the storm.

Called him a "GREEDY PRICE-GOUGER!"

I laughed.

Perhaps the gas cost him more?

And why not complain about the fact that under Obama, the price of gasoline HAS DOUBLED!?!?

The thought had never entered his CLOSED liberal mind.

The idea that anti-carbon policies and anti-off-shore drilling policies and anti-drilling on government lands policies and anti-coal polices were even contributing a little bit to higher energy prices had never entered his CLOSED liberal mind.

Thee was only a reactionary knee-jerk response  No critical thinking. And when i attempted to address the underlying reasons all energy costs are u and why price spikes during shortages are not a bad thing what I got in response was the typical liberal response to a rational discussion of facts:

"I DON'T WANNA HEAR ABOUT IT!"

The only was socialism defeats us is by keeping its adherents in the dark

That's why they disparage FOXNEWS - THEY WANT TO PREVENT THEIR SYCOPHANTS FROM TUNING INTO FOX BECAUSE:

they know if people tune in that they'll hear BOTH sides and that they'll begin to be weaned from the deceitful party-line.

 Further proof of this lies in the fact that Romney CLIMBED in the polls after the debates: when many knee-jerk, closed-minded liberals actually saw Romney un-filtered, they liked him - and what he had to say.

If we want to defeat socialism we need to crack through the liberal control of media and get more if not most Americans to see both sides and think CRITICALLY and refrain from falling back on to knee-jerk responses - like condemnation of price-gougers when liberal policies re more responsible for high gasoline prices.




REPUBLICANS MUST REEVALUATE THEIR FOREIGN POLICY

Caroline Glick's written for National Review that the GOP is going to have to start rethinking their positions on foreign policy, including Israel, and notes a definitely telling error made by Mitt Romney:
For a host of reasons, Republicans have failed to make the case for an alternative to Obama’s policy of appeasement. During the election campaign, Mitt Romney embraced Obama’s support for the establishment of a Palestinian state. He refused to say that the U.S. must take military action to thwart Iran’s nuclear aspirations, despite the clear failure of the current bipartisan policy of sanctions against Tehran. Justifying Obama’s abandonment of the United States’ longtime ally Hosni Mubarak, Romney said that he would have abandoned Mubarak as well, even though Mubarak was the anchor of the United States’ alliance system in the Arab world. Romney failed to criticize Obama’s open-door policy for friends of the Muslim Brotherhood within the U.S. government.
Well, about Mubarak, since he was an autocrat and there were bad things that happened when he was in charge too (his involvement in helping the Achille Lauro terrorists get away with their crime), I'd say what he should have done was to declare Mubarak a bad lot due to his otherwise being adherent and appeasing of Islamofascism, and say that while he'd rather not consider him an ally due to his shady background, he wouldn't abandon Egypt, and definitely not the Copts.

But the point is well made that the kind of positions he took are surely a serious problem to the GOP's credibility, since they can insult the pro-Israel crowd and cause them to question the GOP's dedication to making this a better world. After all, what have they even done to openly and publicly address the harm Islam's done to Europe, what the PLO's doing to Israel, why it's wrong for Muslims to advocate segregation of Jews, and why it's wrong to call for 2-state solutions? Newt Gingrich made a good statement of fact about why there's no such thing as an Arab/Islamic country called palestine, and yet, some of the GOP's reps during the primary attacked him for it, without even asking what Israelis think of his positions. Paul Ryan apparently supports 2-state solutions too, and that could be one more reason why the GOP hurt themselves in the end.

So regarding foreign policy, is the GOP going to start changing their positions, and not act as though they absolutely must try to please both sides rather than just one? Well they're going to have to decide, and fast.

BLACKS IN ISRAEL DESERVE EQUAL JUSTICE TOO

A few weeks ago, a terrible assault on a black woman working as a school bus monitor took place in Kiryat Bialik, by a father enraged that his son was suspended. And the biggest problem was that not only did the principal try to dissuade the victim from filing charges, insufficient action was taken against the bad parent afterwards.

A writer named Seth Frantzman wrote about this for the Jerusalem Post, and gives some important clues that some of the problems with racism and hostility even to Russian immigrants today may stem from leftism, David Ben-Gurion's own foreign origins notwithstanding:
When Ziona Mangistu was making her decision to come to Israel no one bothered to tell her that no matter how long she lived in the country, paid her taxes, sent her children to the army, and worked at a government job, in the eyes of a significant portion of Israel she would always be a “cushi”, a “stinking Ethiopian” who “veteran Israelis” would castigate and tell her to “go back to your country.”

It is odd of course, because actually Israel is as much her country as it is Yael Dayan’s or Nurit Peled’s country, or any of the other figures from the elite families; it is as much Mangistu’s country as it is the country of any citizen.

Mangistu worked as a monitor on Israeli school buses and was ordered by the school not to board children who had been suspended from school, along her route in Kiryat Bialik. On October 30th the father of a suspended student boarded the bus and punched her in the face after attacking her with racist slurs and saying, “stinking Ethiopian, we will have you sent back where you came from.” The severity of the attack resulted in Mangistu being hospitalized. When she returned to the school the principal told her not to file a police complaint, she said. After the media and the mayor became aware of the incident, the irate father was momentarily detained by the police and then immediately released to five days of house arrest.

Mangistu’s story encapsulates a small slice of life. Because she is not considered a full part of Israeli society, neither from a “good veteran family”, nor a kibbutz nor the “right neighborhood,” she doesn’t receive the same service as the rest.

If you want to predict how the legal system treats people like Ziona, all you have to do is ask where they came from.

Lest anyone think this is an exaggeration, just recall that Pini Cohen received three years in prison for throwing a shoe at Dorit Beinish, the Supreme Court judge. No one advised Beinisch against reporting the crime; there was no “catch and release” wink-wink, nod-nod for the perpetrator. Why would a school principal advise a government employee, connected to the school, who has been hospitalized after a racist assault. not to file a police complaint? Is it because the principal is friends with, or related to, the attacker or that the employee, Mangistu, has the wrong color skin and comes from the wrong socioeconomic background?

Mangistu’s blood-stained shirt is a symbol of a national sickness in Israel – hatred of immigrants – and ineffective, or corrupt police forces and judges that too often release criminals who have harmed people from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Rather than covering up incidents like this, institutions, such as schools must protect their employees. The lack of protest on behalf of this victim and the appeasement of the coward who beats on women are symbols of a society that is quiescent in the face of savagery.
The principal's puzzling willingness to defend the father of a boy they'd suspended is bad enough. So too is the police's pathetic approach to justice and failure to prosecute him correctly. But also just as offensive is the example the father set for his own son - what if one day the boy grows up to become a racist himself and violent towards women? And what does the mother think of all this?

I think we can all guess why the son was suspended to begin with.

And back to the father: even if this were a white woman he'd beaten up on, chances are he'd still display some kind of derogatory position and might've used a misogynist slur, which should give an idea of what kind of revolting man he must be.
THE KNEE-JERK hatred directed at Mangistu is part of a larger motif. Two weeks ago, after the decision by Likud and Yisrael Beitenu to run on a combined list, the left wing Israeli political party, Meretz, immediately released a campaign poster, at first online, that asked “where were you in the war against the Israeli Putin?” Later the ad appeared on the front of the Israeli daily Haaretz. The attack on “the Israeli Putin” was directed at the national origins of the head of Yisrael Beitenu, Avigdor Liberman.

Because he was born in Russia, some Israelis consider him “Putin,” since he is one of the few Russians Israelis are familiar with. Liberman is slandered as “Putin” because he wasn’t born on a kibbutz, or in Ramat Aviv – a wealthy part of Tel Aviv. As an immigrant he is forever slandered as a foreigner who will threaten our democracy as Prof. Alexander Yacobson writes, “Israeli democracy is weighed down by Soviet traditions.” The insinuation is that prior to the 1991 mass immigration, Israel was a perfect utopia, and then the evil immigrants ruined it.

It is interesting that the same left that considers itself secular and has no problem eating pork, is the one that mocks Russian voters for Yisrael Beitenu as members of “the pork party.” When Meretz members eat pork it is the good pork, the whiter pork, but when Russians do it, it is considered “foreign.”

With the one hand Israel was run as a one-party state for the first 20 years of its existence and with the other, Israelis – like author Amos Alon – accuse the immigrants of harming democracy, “we know where it comes from. Either from the Arab countries or Eastern Europe.”

This sad truth about the hatred of immigrants, no matter how long they have been in the country, was clear when Amir Oren wrote in his article “A ploy too far” that “Liberman will be the defense minister, hear all the nuclear and intelligence secrets… the movie plot is clear, an immigrant youth from the Soviet Union, the kingdom of the Communist Party and KGB, climbs diligently up the political ladder to make it to the prime minister’s chair.” Thus Levi Eshkol, the Labor party insider, born in the Ukraine who was prime minister in 1967 was not a threat to national security, or perceived as an immigrant spy, but Liberman is. Eshkol was from the good generation of immigrants, like Ben-Gurion; whereas any immigrant who has come since, isn’t fully part of the national narrative.
Ironic, isn't it? The first generation of immigrants was accepted, yet bewilderingly enough, the next one is not. It does have what to do with leftism, as this article implies, and I suspect that the reason is that the Israeli left, who did little or nothing on their part to help the black Jews of Ethiopia make their way here, never really appreciated Ben-Gurion's own contributions either.
David Ben-Gurion, Chaim Weizmann, Golda Meir, they were all of the generation that could become fully Israeli despite being immigrants, but no leader can emerge today, who is considered fully Israeli, who is born abroad. That is why some Israelis respond to an argument with someone like Mangistu with “go back where you came from.” But why should the racist have more rights to the country than Mangistu? Israel must challenge this anti-immigrant rhetoric or it risks sinking under the burden of xenophobic strife.
Absolutely.
Recently there was a great deal of hullabaloo over a poll conducted by the Israela Goldblum fund, crafted by a series of far-left academic activists: Mordechai Bar-On, Amiram Goldblum, Michael Sfard, Alon Liel and Camil Fuchs. The questions were written in such a way as to confuse or lead respondents to support a hypothetical apartheid (the survey was entitled, “Topics of equality and Apartheid”). The poll revealed that 42 percent of Israeli Jews don’t want to have Arabs in their schools or in the same building they live in. The polling data, of only 503 people, was broken down into groups of ultra- Orthodox Jews, Russians and secular Israelis. Even though the surveyors wanted to separate the “new” secular Russians from the “old” secular Israelis, it turns out their answers to many of the questions were remarkably similar.

But lost in the commentary were interesting statistics.

Only 24% of the supposedly “racist” Russians said they were bothered by living in a building with Arabs, whereas 27% of the veteran secular Israelis didn’t want the Arabs sleeping in the next apartment. The decision to make Russians a separate category is motivated by Israeli elite society’s racism, perceiving the Russians as different from “secular” society. Russians have been in Israel for more than 20 years, longer than Israel existed within the pre-1967 Green Line, longer than the period from the First Zionist Congress to the Balfour Declaration, and yet they are still – according to academics like Goldblum, Bar- On and Fuchs – considered separate from the rest of Israel. That is brutal testimony to the “othering” of the Russian immigrants.
I'd never really realized what Russian immigrants are seen as by the leftards in this country until now. At one time, this was the case with Sephardi Jews from Arab/Islamic countries too, who were considered "impure" compared to Ashkenazi Jews. Today, much of those problems have been erased, but it's clear that we've still got a long way to go, and Meretz owes Lieberman an apology for such a sick assault on his image.

And the father of the schoolboy who assaulted Mangistu should be prosecuted and jailed for the violent crime he committed right in front of other students on the bus, some of whom will no doubt be traumatized by the sight. He shouldn't even be allowed to have custody of his child since he basically proved himself unfit to parent. I still have no idea where the mother stands in all this, but if she recognizes that his crime was wrong, she too should shun the neanderthal.

ANOTHER GEM FROM NIGEL FARAGE IN DEFENSE OF DEMOCRACY AND THE NATION-STATE

IS THIS EVIDENCE OF MASSIVE VOTER FRAUD?

More African-Americans voted in Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina and Florida than in 2008. And fewer Republicans did: Romney got just over 2 million fewer votes than John McCain.
1+1=2.

MORE BLACKS THAN IN 2008?!
I DON'T BUY IT.
AND FEWER GOP'ERS - DESPITE THE HUGE CROWDS ROMNEY GOT?!?!
I DON'T BUY IT.
MAYBE THE SURGE IN BLACK E.D.'S WAS FRAUDULENT?

MAYBE IN BATTLEGROUND STATES THE MACHINES WERE PRECONFIGURED TO TURN GOP VOTES INTO OBAMA VOTES?

IT WOULD EXPLAIN EVERYTHING.

TOO FAR-FETCHED?

IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE.

JFK STOLE THE WHITE HOUSE WITH HELP FROM THE DALEY CHICAGO MACHINE.

ANOTHER COINCIDENCE - THAT OBAMA'S CAMPAIGN WAS RUN BY THE SAME MACHINE?

NOPE.

AND THAT TEDDY'S  ENDORSEMENT PUT OBAMA ON THE MAP?

NOPE.

Muslims Destroy Art Because They Believe in Allah, Leftists Destroy Art Because They Believe Money is The Primary Factor In Life, What Do You Think Happens When You Put Muslims and Leftists Together?

Tower Hamlets is a VERY Muslim area of London. 

It is ruled over by a Caliph, I mean, Mayor named Lutfur Rahman.

London itself is a Leftist area of a Leftist nation.

What happens when Leftism and Islam collide in one area of the world?

Iconic statues are destroyed.

From the London Standard:


Mayor Boris Johnson has called on a London council to reconsider selling an "iconic" Henry Moore sculpture. 

Lutfur Rahman, mayor of Tower Hamlets, has decided to sell the council-owned Draped Seated Woman in a bid to claw back money lost in budget cuts. 

But the Mayor of London said: "The decision to sell this iconic work by a key British artist is extremely disappointing. 

"Whilst I appreciate that the council needs to find ways to deal with the prevailing economic climate, I believe more could be done to enable Draped Seated Woman to remain in East London." 

The sculpture, known as Old Flo, was originally sold to Tower Hamlets by Mr Moore at a below-market price in the 1960s with the understanding that it would be placed in east London. 
It has been on loan to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park for the last 15 years and will now be put up for sale as Tower Hamlets attempts to make £100 million savings by 2015. 
The council said it was a "tough decision" but one that was made due to the "massive government cuts we are facing". 
Mr Rahman said: "It is with considerable regret that I make this decision but I have a duty to ensure residents do not suffer the brunt of the horrendous cuts being imposed on us." 
Mr Johnson had previously written to Cllr Rahman in support of a request by the Museum of London for it to be loaned for display at its Docklands site.
The letter argued that "the mayor's proposal goes against the spirit of Henry Moore's original sale" and urged the council to reconsider.
A council spokesman said that the piece was expected to raise between £4 million and £17 million and will be sold through Christie's auction house. 
So, they're going to remove a statue from a Muslim area for, say, $10 million, to cover for a budget shortfall of $100 million.

The issue here is not budgets. It is Islam and Leftism.

OBAMA BLAMES BUSH... UNEXPETEDLY

JUST SAYING.

HE ALWAYS BLAMES SOMEONE...

HEADWINDS.

THE FOG OF WAR.

THE TEA PARTY.

RACISM.

AND ISRAEL.

JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE....



WE NEED TO START FILLING SANDBAGS

David Weinberg's written in Israel Hayom (via The Weekly Standard) about why Obama's reelection is something Israel's got to worry about:
Obama’s re-election means that Ehud Olmert is going to run against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the upcoming Jan. 2013 Israeli election. It means that Obama is going to intervene aggressively in our election to boost Olmert. It means that a push for immediate Palestinian statehood is back on the international agenda. Most worrisome of all, it means that an American 'grand bargain' with the Iranians, possibly at our expense, is on the table.
Whether or not Olmert runs again, he's absolutely right that Obama could interfere in Israeli elections, and we can't underestimate his influence. And he could undermine efforts to deal effectively with Iran too. That's why the Likud must take all that into account when the official campaign begins in January.

THE STOCK MARKET CRASHES ON OBAMA'S RE-ELECTION... UNEXPECTEDLY

JUST SAYING.


The Most Important Issue In This Political Election Season Was "Having My Own Reality TV Show So I Can Be Famous Just Like Honey Boo Boo"


You know those polls where they ask the American Public "what is most important issue to you", and they say "The Economy"?!?

Well, I just figured something out.

If the Polling companies had added in a category for "Having My Own Reality TV Show So I Can Be Famous Just Like Honey Boo Boo", then that would have been the most important issue to the American Public this election season.

We might as well face it, we live in Idiocracy now.

We live in a country full of people who don't know what's in their own self-interest. A people who do not know what's good for them is just this side of suicide.

Honey Boo Boo and her friends can't get a job, and that isn't the fault of the bad economy, stifled by socialist policies, NO!

The problem is, the Government won't give them a job.

If Obama wants to be popular the next four years, he ought to start a government program to make sure that every single American gets their own Reality TV Show on E! Television.

Cuz, your own Reality TV Show, That's a job, right?

It's a job and you're famous. That's everything anyone could ever want in the America we find ourselves in today.

That's some high-gear visionary Socialism.

Welcome to the Banana Republic of Barack Obama and Honey Boo Boo.

Carl's Jr.: Fuck You. I'm Eating.

OBAMA GOT 10 MILLION FEWER VOTES - AS WE ON THE  RIGHT CORRECTLY ANALYZED FROM POLL AND FUNDRAISING AND CAMPAIGN CROWD DATA.

WE  WERE INCORRECT IN ASSUMING ROMNEY WOULD GET MORE THAN MCCAIN.

WHY DID HE FAIL TO EVEN MATCH MCCAIN'S TOTAL?

ANTI-MORMON BIGOTRY BY EVANGELICALS IS A PRIME SUSPECT.

AN EVANGELICAL I KNOW REFUSED TO VOTE FOR EITHER OBAMA OR ROMNEY ARGUING MORMON'S DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE TRINITY AND ARE THEREFORE NOT CHRISTIAN, BUT A CULT.

IT'S BIZARRE TO ME THAT TO THESE FOLKS OBAMA - WHO VOTED FOR INFANTICIDE - IS SOMEHOW BETTER THAN MITT.

WHAT ELSE MAY HAVE LED TO THE DECLINE IN GOP TURNOUT?

OR DID TAMPERED-WITH MACHINES TURN 2 MILLION ROMNEY VOTES INTO OBAMA VOTES?


AGAIN, IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE MANY JEWS VOTED REPUBLICAN

Again, the GOP has been defeated in the election, and Mitt Romney's conceded gracefully. It's very sad this had to happen. At this point I'm beginning to wonder: where did some of those polls suggesting Romney had a chance come from? If they were cooked up by conservative sources, one can only wonder if they were exaggerated just to be encouraging when reality signaled otherwise.

As for now, I am most definitely disgusted by the damage the now former Congressman Todd Akin caused when he spluttered away about "legitimate rape" and then refused to exit the race. He actually deserves whatever he got. I have a feeling he decided to be a burden upon the GOP and sabotage their efforts deliberately, and if he did, he should be shunned by civilized society. He owes a public apology to both women and the conservative movement for his horrific atrocity, but sadly, he may not give one at all.

Now as for the Jewish vote, I discovered that again, the GOP spectacularly failed to lure much of the Jewish crowd, what with 69 percent voting for Obama, and that includes the Satmar community:
The radical wings of the haredi camp, which is based in the US, thinks otherwise: During the last few weeks, the anti Zionist Satmar sect has been leading an intense campaign on haredi radio stations and internet networks.

Their goal is to persuade voters to neutralize the pro-Israeli factor in the election, with some even specifically calling for the election of Obama, who is perceived by some as hostile towards the community.
There are plenty of ultra-Orthodox in the USA who can vote to the right but the Satmar, with their degrading mindset aren't among them. That aside, what's the use, the election's come and gone, and we see how incredibly, miscalculations were made everywhere, resulting in Obama winning a second term. Here's some more to ponder from Ron Radosh, Jonathan Tobin, Ben Shapiro and Joel Pollak.

And I hope that the right in Israel is going to be careful how it, by comparison, runs a campaign, because here we cannot afford to lose the way the GOP sadly did.

Major crises/tests are coming very fast

Major crises/tests are coming very fast - and given the fact that we have the same ol' folks in DC calling the shots - Obama, Reid and Boehner -  I think there is no reason to think these impending crises will be met successfully.

And Obama's "flexibility" (his cute term for appeasing the enemy) will make them more likely. On the near-term horizon:

  • Greece - I think the collapse begins 11/16.
  • Sequestration - and I think this leads to the decimation of the US military...
  • as a result: another downgrade of USA debt...
  • and then QE3 - leading to more inflation.
  • And as a result of defense cuts: more  aggressive Chinese hegemony and even the invasion of Taiwan and other islands by China.
  • And also a more aggressive Iran and even a Iranian nuke test within a year.
  • A Taliban takeover of Afghanistan is now inevitable...
  • as is an Muslim Brotherhood abrogation of Camp David.
And that's just the next 12 months!

QUESTION: WHO WILL OBAMA BLAME THE NEXT FOUR YEARS?

JUST ASKING.



THE END OF THE AMERICAN CENTURY

The American Century began with the Spanish-American War.

And it has just ended with the re-election of Obama.

And wherever atheism, socialism and islamism rule - whether in the Kremlin or in Cairo and Tehran or in Beijing... OR on the Upper West Side of Manhattan - they are rejoicing.

Here are the events which allowed it to happen:

1 - The John Roberts Reversal on Obamacare - and the ensuing papering-over of the fact that it raises taxes while raiding Medicare and failing to cover everyone and failing to contain costs.

2 - Amnesty for illegal immigrants via executive order - pandering to Latinos worked despite the fact that for four years Obama ignored them.

3 - Bernanke's "Quantitative Easing" - which sent the stock market up quickly giving the illusion of economic strength - while lighting the fuse of an impending inflation explosion.

4 - The false unemployment numbers in September and October which showed a Potemkin labor market improvement.

5 - Class Warfare - the Bain attacks and tax return attacks against Romney and the attacks against "the 1%" worked.

6 - The legacy media's outrageous cover-ups for Obama especially of Benghazi - (and Fast & Furious - and also Rezko and the Chicago Machine,  Obama's deep leftist ties with Davis, Wright & Ayers, and covering up the fact that Obama is not truly an African-American but a Kenyan American with no ties to the Civil Rights Movement... and so on).

7 - Hurricane Sandy and the seeming reversal of Governor Christie - which at first stalled Romney's surge and then turned Obama's photo-ops into stature-raising events.

As a result we will get another recession and:
(a) a more leftist and tyrannical SCOTUS,  
(b) another downgrade on our spiraling debt - and spiraling out-of-control inflation,  
(c) sequestration and massive defense cuts - allowing  
(d) Chinese, Russian, Iranian and Muslim Brotherhood hegemony to expand at the expense of our allies in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Israel and Europe.
Only a takeover of the US Senate in 2014 can slow this - and only if it's then followed by impeachment can it stop this.

To accomplish this, the right needs an approach and a leader that's more appealing to urbanites and blue collar workers.

That's Rubio, Jindal, Kasich, and Walker for now.

AND PRAYERS.

IRISH TV REPORTER CALLS ISRAEL "CANCER"


This is very sad. Vincent Browne, a journalist for Ireland's TV3, made a very nasty crack about Israel. He said:
Israel is the cancer in foreign affairs. It polarizes the Islamic community of the world against the rest of the world.

Unless you deal with the problem of Israel and the Palestinians in that part of the world, there’s going to be conflict and disharmony. It’s a massive injustice — they stole the land from the Arabs.
Once again, the blood libel is repeated. And he's refused to recant and repent:
Mr Browne admitted that his choice of language could have been better but insisted that the criticism was justified.

“What I resent is the suggestion that because you’re critical of Israel, you’re automatically anti-Semitic. I don’t think that’s acceptable,” he said.

Mr Browne refused to apologise for his remarks, saying that Israel was founded in 1948 by taking land from the Arabs.

He said it was “blackmail” to try to brand everyone who was critical of Israel as anti-Semitic. “I don’t think I differ too much from Irish or European foreign policy,” he said.
His first error here was to deny he's an anti-semite. Then why did he say that this country is a curse? How would he feel if any senseless reporter in England, who tried to suppress his country before Michael Collins (who to my knowledge had at least one Jewish colleague and served as an inspiration for Yitzhak Shamir) managed to liberate it, called his own country a "cancer"? That's something people like him have to consider - even today, there's people in the blighty who could do that. Sadly, he's unlikely to do so.

BWAHAHAHA!: HOW THE BIASED POLLS ARE GONNA BACK-FIRE ON THE LEFT!

I'VE KNOWN THIS FR  AWHILE, BUT DIDN'T WANT TO LET THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE FR THE LEFT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT:

THE LEFTIST DOMINATED LEGACY MEDIA PUBLISHED CRAP LIKE "OBAMA HAS A 92% CHANCE AT WINNING REELECTION", BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO  DEPRESS OUR TURNOUT.

BUT BY PRETENDING TO SHOW OBAMA IN THE LEAD, THE BIASED POLLS ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO DEPRESS DEMOCRAT TURNOUT:

THE POLLS HAVE GIVEN BORDERLINE AND UNENTHUSIASTIC OBAMA SUPPORTERS AN EXCUSE FOR NOT GOING TO THE POLLS THEMSELVES!

BWAHAHAHAHA!

FRED BARNES THEN AND NOW

I MET FRED BARNES OF THE WEEKLY STANDARD A WEEK BEFORE THE 2008 ELECTION - WHEN MY HOPES WERE TILL HIGH.

I ASKED HIM HOW HE THOUGHT IT WAS GOING. HE TOLD ME OBAMA WAS GONNA WIN.

I THOUGHT HE WAS JUST BEING PESSIMISTIC.

NOPE; HE WAS RIGHT.

SO THE FACT THAT HE'S SAYING MITT WILL IN MEANS A LOT TO ME.

HE'S NOT A PARTISAN PROPAGANDIST.

I BELIEVE HIM THIS TIME.

TURKEY TRIES 4 IDF OFFICIALS IN ABSENTIA

In their continued efforts to undermine Israel and signal a break in diplomatic ties, Turkey has begun a trial for 4 of the IDF commanders who led the raid on the flotilla:
An Istanbul court is set on Tuesday to begin the trial of four top IDF commanders blamed by Turkey for a deadly 2010 clash on a Turkish-owned ship that attempted to violate Israel's maritime blockade of Gaza.

The hearing, which is likely to rekindle tensions between the two former allies, Turkey and Israel, comes months after the court approved an indictment by prosecutors, who are seeking life sentences for the top Israeli officials in the deadly maritime assault.

The accused are all but certain not to attend the trial, since Israel's government ruled that the soldiers who participated in the military operation to take over the six flotilla vessels that were involved in the 'Mavi Marmara' incident, and redirect them to Ashdod port, did nothing wrong.
Of course they did nothing wrong. It's the anarchists aboard the ship who were in the wrong. Yet Turkey's new dictators have seen fit to condemn the IDF officials regardless of evidence and there is no doubt they're going to convict them already. The commanders should not go to Turkey regardless as there's every chance the monsters in charge would take them as basically political prisoners and worse. Turkey isn't a safe place to travel anymore.

Update: Commentary has more about this subject.

JEWISH FATHER AND HOME ATTACKED AND VANDALIZED IN MARSEILLE

Another case of a vindictive Muslim gang committing aggravated assault, trespassing and vandalism in Marseille, on the property of a Jewish family in the city.

This is just why Muslims practically need to be exiled from countries where they don't belong, no matter whether they're citizens or not.

IF THERE WEREN'T ANY POLLS, THEN WHO DO YOU THINK THE FAVORITE IN TOMORROW'S ELECTION WOULD BE?

ROMNEY.

ROMNEY'S CROWDS ARE BIGGER THAN OBAMA'S AND HE'S RAISED MORE MONEY THAN MCCAIN DID WHILE OBAMA HAS SMALLER CROWDS THAN 2008 AND HE'S RAISED LESS MONEY THAN 2008.

SO DISCARD THE POLLS AND .... GET COCKY!

RECOMMENDED PRE-ELECTION READING

From this recent essay by Tammy Swofford:
Troubling questions regarding Benghazi, a sexually exploitive campaign ad, and a politically charged film released two days before the election continue to raise reasonable concerns regarding the suitability of the current POTUS to remain in office.  [Soon], Americans may choose to strike the stage of the current administration through the simple act of going to the polls. As for myself, I cannot vote for a man who cannot be trusted to tell us the truth about Benghazi. I cannot vote for a man who allows vulgar ads and propaganda films as a means to massage his narcissistic cravings. I cannot vote for a devolving American president.

CRISIS IN EUROPE FAR FROM OVER: UNEMPLOYMENT GOES UP TO 25% IN SPAIN

The number of people looking for work in Spain rose by 2.7% in October, marking the third month in a row that unemployment levels have risen. 
A total of 4.8m people are now out of work in Spain, according to the Labour Ministry, which compiles the monthly figures. 
Spain's quarterly unemployment rate, considered a more reliable gauge of employment levels, was 25% at the end of September.
SPAIN IS THE FOURTH LARGEST ECONOMY IN EUROPE.

THE CRISIS IN EUROPE IS FAR FROM OVER.

MUSLIMS DESTROY FIRST TEMPLE BEAMS MADE FROM ANCIENT CEDARS OF LEBANON


A group of Jews that ascended the Temple Mount Sunday were shocked to see that ancient beams of wood that had apparently been used during the period of the Holy Temple were being used as firewood by Arabs on the Mount, and off it.
 
Archaeologists have dated the wood as far back as the First Temple period, and appear to be among the celebrated “Cedars of Lebanon” mentioned in the Tanach. 
The wood, consisting of giant beams, first appeared at the end of the 1930s, when the Al-Aqsa mosque which currently occupies the Temple Mount was refurbished. The beams had been used in the roof structure of the mosque, and already at that time they were said to be thousands of years old by archaeologists – preserved only because they had been used in the building. 
Some of the beams were dated to the first Temple period, others to Roman times, and at least one beam was found to have Byzantine-era designs etched on it. 
After the beams were removed from the mosque, they were stored in a museum on the Mount. However, in recent years the beams were moved to a corner of the Mount, open to the elements – and archaeologists fear that exposure to winter rain and summer sun will be their undoing. 
Some of the beams were taken out several years ago, and more have been spotted in recent months. Reports said that the Arabs, who have been trying for years to get rid of the beams, have begun burning them. 

Now, many of the beams have been placed at what appears to be a dumping ground next to the Golden Gate of the Old City, apparently for the use of local Arabs as firewood. 
IF THIS IS TRUE, THEN IT PROVIDES A GOOD BASIS FOR TIT-FOR-TAT - AFTER ALL, TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY.

IOW: BASED ON THIS REPORT. MECCA WOULD BE FAIRLY TARGETED FOR SIMILAR TREATMENT.


Does Bronco Bama Hate White People?

Remember how George Bush was accused of hating Black People, because he didn't personally dig everyone out of New Orleans?




Look, I know that most people laughed at poor, addled Kanye West when he made that claim. But, in a very insidious way, the meme he birthed made it's way into the public consciousness and became a part of the Leftist litany against George Bush.

Now, 78% of people in Staten Island are white, and let's face it, they are the lost people of Hurricane Sandy.

Staten Island: Not Gone, But Forgotten
Staten Island is a small community. In size, we're number four of all the boroughs of New York City, behind only Manhattan, and we're number five in population. We're a borough that's largely blue collar: many police men and women, FDNY and city and sanitation workers call the island home. It's often noted that we're largely registered Republicans. 
News of the extent of the devastation was extremely slow to hit the news, but it was loud and clear on social networks and online forums where personal tales fell from one ear to another like dominos. South Beach, Midland Beach and Tottenville, all east shore coastal areas exposed to Raritan Bay, leading out to the Atlantic Ocean, were ravaged by Sandy. To an island that often sits in the shadow of its brethren boroughs, there was this chilling thought: If we don't fix this ourselves, no one will come for us.
So, my question is, if George Bush didn't "care about black people" because of what happened in New Orleans, is it also true that Bronco Bama doesn't care about white people?

ALL MAHMOUD ABBAS DID WAS SPOUT TAQQIYA

A few days ago, the PLO dictator said he was willing to give up on the "right of return" for so-called palestinians. But now, he's admitted all he was doing was resorting to taqqiya:
The Palestinian Authority announced Saturday that its president, Mahmoud Abbas, has not relinquished Palestinian refugees’ “right to return” to their former homes inside Israel.

The statement came after Abbas told Channel 2 on Thursday that he did not want to return to his former hometown of Safed and that a Palestinian state would be established only within the pre-1967 lines.

Abbas’s remarks drew sharp criticism from many Palestinians, including Hamas, who accused him of giving up the refugees’ “right of return.”

PA officials explained over the weekend that Abbas’s position regarding the refugees had not changed.

“The position of the Palestinian leadership remains fixed,” said Nabil Abu Rudaineh, a spokesman for Abbas. “The refugees and the right of return are among the final-status issues that will be negotiated with the Israelis. We are committed to the Palestinian principles as endorsed by the Palestine National Council [the PLO’s parliament-in-exile].”

[...] Abu Rudaineh said that the interview with Channel 2 was aimed at “affecting Israeli public opinion.”
In other words, they were employing taqqiya and hoping the Israeli public would buy it all within an instant.

The prime minister already sensed Abbas was up to no good and was right to dismiss his statements as lies:
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quickly responded to Abbas' clarifications, saying that the Palestinian president had tried to deceive the Israeli public in his interview with Channel 2.

"I watched President Abbas' interview, and have heard that since then he's already managed to go back on his words," said Netanyahu. "This only underscores the importance of direct negotiations without preconditions."

Netanyahu also told ministers at the weekly cabinet meeting in Jerusalem that he was ready to sit down for negotiations with Abbas as soon as the latter wanted. "Ramallah is seven minutes away, and I am ready to begin negotiations today."

Lieberman, too, dismissed Abbas' clarifications: "What's important is what Abu Mazen [Abbas] tells his own people in Arabic, and not what he tells the Israeli public in English."

At the cabinet meeting, Education Minister Gideon Sa'ar echoed criticism that Abbas was attempting to interfere in elections: "This isn't the first time the Palestinians have done this," he said.
Nor will it be the last. The main problem is the PLO's adherence to the Religion of Peace, and so long as they go by it, they'll continue on that brain-insulting path.

OHIO AND PENNSYLVANIA ARE TOO CLOSE TO CALL, WHICH MEANS THEY'RE CLOSE ENOUGH FOR OBAMA TO STEAL

JUST SAYING...

GOTV AND POLL WATCH!
