WESTERN LEFTISTS DEFEND THEIR ISLAMIC TOVARISCH (COMRADES)

Jennifer Oriel wrote in The Australian about pseudo-westerners who go out of their way to side with Islamofascism. Here's one weird example:

Loretta Napoleoni’s widely acclaimed book The Islamist Phoenix also contains a curious admixture of condemning Islamic State violence while praising the terrorist group’s caliphate ambition. It has been endorsed by Chomsky.

When Chomsky's involved, you know the situation is truly awful. And how can anyone support such a stupid book when the author speaks from both ends of her mouth? Definitely not a book any sensible person who understands the Koran's influence should ever buy.

2 POLICEMEN STABBED AT OLD CITY

They're lucky their wounds weren't severe, but they were attacked:

Two Border Policemen were stabbed early Friday morning near Jerusalem Old City's Lion Gate.

One officer, age 35, was stabbed in the hand, the other, age 19, was stabbed in the neck.

They were transported to Shaarei Tzedek Hospital, where they are listed in light to moderate condition.

More on topic here. The attacker fled the scene. We must hope he's caught.

GIRL SERIOUSLY INJURED IN FIREBOMB ATTACK

Jihadists attacked a car with a firebomb, wounding a girl:

An Israeli driver and his 11 year old daughter were attacked by Arab terrorists who threw a firebomb at his vehicle Thursday night. The two suffered burns, but managed to escape from their burning vehicle. They were treated on the scene by Magen David Adom rescue workers and taken to a hospital in Kfar Sava. The girl is said to be in serious condition by doctors.

Keep her in your prayers and hope the vile terrorists are caught.

AVIGDOR LIEBERMAN'S POLITICAL CAREER MAY BE OVER

Lieberman's policies on Israel are already suspect. Add to that how one of his own party's members is being investigated anew for corruption charges:

Police detained over 30 high-ranking government officials on Wednesday for questioning on corruption charges, including Yisrael Beytenu's Deputy Interior Minister Faina Kirschenbaum.

Police say they allegedly used tens of millions of shekels worth of public money from charities and gave it to those close to them politically.

Those brought in for questioning also include a cadre of regional heads, a Knesset director general, former ministers, heads of public corporations, union leaders and political activists.

Lahav 433, the elite anti-fraud police unit, has been investigating the case undercover for the past year and went public with the investigations on Wednesday, when the detentions were made.

As noted before, he's been chummy with corrupt businessman Martin Schlaff, and if he's been doing anything illegal, it should be frowned upon as much as Ehud Olmert's own felonies. A Jerusalem Post writer tells why this time, Lieberman may not have much success:

The theory behind criminal investigations boosting Yisrael Beytenu in the polls is that they awaken a sense of other-ness and victimhood in its traditional voter base, immigrants from the Former Soviet Union, like half of the party's current MKs.

The probes also attract right-wing voters that feel like the Left runs the country, the media, the police, etc. Even though the Right has been in power for years, the most popular newspaper in the country is pro-Netanyahu and a Yisrael Beytenu minister is in charge of police.

Of course, politicians on the Right and Left, religious and secular, Ashkenazi and Sephardic, immigrant and sabra have been investigated for corruption in the years since 1999, but perception is often stronger than facts.

Now that Liberman has distanced himself from both of the groups that identified with the party's victimhood, he might not benefit from that perception anymore.

This is not the first election in which Yisrael Beytenu sought to present itself as not just a party for Russian-speakers, but it is certainly continuing in that vein, and in any case, many sociologists and pollsters say immigrants from the FSU no longer vote in a bloc.

Plus, Liberman presented himself as a centrist in recent weeks, highlighting his support for a two-state solution and saying that isolated settlements will have to be evacuated, even though he lives in one, Nokdim. In addition, the party refuses to confirm or deny reports that the right-wing members of his faction - Tourism Minister Uzi Landau, Agriculture Minister Yair Shamir and MK David Rotem - will not be on the list for the next Knesset. However, he has not backed down from demanding that Israeli-Arabs declare loyalty to the state.

The proudly right-wing parties – Likud and Bayit Yehudi – jumped on all of Liberman's ostensibly leftist statements, and Yisrael Beytenu has been bleeding voters from the Right in the polls without picking any up from the other parties calling themselves centrist – Yesh Atid and Koolanu.

These "centrist" parties have been nothing but trouble for Israel, and it's time to start avoiding them. If Lieberman's willing to support 2-state propaganda, then how does he expect Israel's Muslim citizens to truly remain loyal to Israel? Indeed, his logic is very weak. Besides, most Arabs here actually prefer to live under Israeli sovereignty.

So Lieberman's loss of voters is richly deserved for all the slapdash and dangerous ideas he's willing to uphold. It's time to move away from him and support the right-wing parties that are more loyal to Israel than he'll ever be.

THIRD TERRORIST ATTACK IN FRANCE IN JUST A FEW DAYS

Once again, however, the authorities are acting weakly in what they call it this newest terrible incident in Nantes where a jihadist ran people over with an old Fiat Scudo:

French authorities have ruled out terrorism as a motive for the van attack, despite reports the driver shouted “Allahu akbar” as he piloted the white Fiat van into crowds of people doing last minute Christmas shopping. Hours later police arrested a man reportedly “armed to the teeth” on Tuesday morning.

Despite the similarities to an almost identical motor-attack that occurred less than 24-hours before in the French city of Dijon, the local prosecutor speaking in the wake of this latest event said “We cannot speak of a terrorist act”, saying evidence suggests it was an “isolated case”.

British newspaper The Times reports a number of reliable sources, including a police officer, witnessed the driver of the white van attack in Nantes shouting “Allahu akbar” as he drove into people. The phrase is Arabic and translates as ‘God is Great’.

It is reported the ram-attack specifically targeted a chalet serving mulled wine. After his vehicle came to a rest and he had injured eleven bystanders, five seriously, the driver began to stab himself repeatedly in an apparent, unsuccessful, suicide bid. He is now in police custody.

He should still be crippled in the legs, since that'll make him less of a threat physically. The authorities are now going to have to do some serious thinking and put the country on higher security alerts.

TWO JIHAD ATTACKS IN FRANCE

Jihad in France is getting worse. First, there was an attack at a police station in Tours:

French anti-terrorism police are investigating an attack on a provincial police station where three officers were slashed by an assailant with a large knife before he was shot dead.

The attacker, identified as Bertrand Nzohabonayo, of Burundian origin, shouted Allahu Akbar [God is great] before lunging at the officers at Joué-lès-Tours, a suburb of Tours in central France on Saturday. Two policemen were gravely injured and a third wounded before the man was shot dead.

The perpetrator can rot in hell. Soon after this happened, another Islamofascist hit people with a car in Dijon:

A driver shouting "Allahu Akbar" ("God is greatest") ploughed into pedestrians in eastern France Sunday, injuring 11 of them, just a day after a man yelling the same words was killed in an attack on police officers.

Two of the people injured in the car attack in the city of Dijon were in a serious condition, a police source said, adding that the driver had been arrested.

[...] Witnesses told police that the driver shouted "Allahu Akbar" and "that he was acting for the children of Palestine", a source close to the investigation said.

And their politicians have the gall to claim a race/nation that doesn't exist is worth supporting? This is absolutely abominable, and a prime reason many in France are losing faith in their political representatives.

DAN SLOTT'S SUDDENLY AGAINST COMMUNISTS, OR IS HE?

Who knew that ultra-leftist Slott, of all people, would suddenly speak out against a communist country like North Korea, after the alleged hack at Sony led to their withdrawing The Interview from release to theaters? Yet even then, there's reason to doubt he's sincere. Here's a list of tweets he wrote:

I had no intention of seeing THE INTERVIEW. Now I feel I have to. TWICE! Don't tell what entertainment I can-or-can't watch.
— Dan Slott (@DanSlott) December 17, 2014

Screw it. I want to watch a TEAM AMERICA + THE INTERVIEW double feature! Get THAT in the theaters! STAT!
— Dan Slott (@DanSlott) December 17, 2014

Now "Team America" screenings are getting canceled? Of all the-- Dear Hollywood, suck it up.
— Dan Slott (@DanSlott) December 18, 2014

New list of North Korean demands to Hollywood: 1. Stop screenings of Team America 2. Remove Burbank from Google Maps 3. Cluck like a chicken

Just so you know: TEAM AMERICA is available on @netflix streaming. For now...
— Dan Slott (@DanSlott) December 18, 2014

Dear North Korea, Michael Bay's TRANSFORMERS movies have hidden insults against your glorious leader. Honest.

Odds of me seeing "The Interview" were as high as me seeing "Deuce Bigalow: North Korean Gigolo". The point: Don't tell me what I can't see.

Free health care, fewer gun-related deaths, & more balls. RT @THR #TheInterview Protest Screenings Planned in Canada http://t.co/32TrJITKYy
— Dan Slott (@DanSlott) December 21, 2014

Uh oh, here's where it gets fishy. If it's anything like Obama's idea for healthcare, that makes it very troubling, certainly if it's government-run. And there was a terrorist attack a couple weeks ago in Ottawa, so I'm not sure why Slott thinks Canada's got less gun violence.

.@248NYR So I guess from now on we don't hold marathons in Boston? Or put up buildings in NYC? You don't let terrorists dictate your life.
— Dan Slott (@DanSlott) December 21, 2014

That would be a lot more convincing if he admitted it's wrong to let people going by "holy" scriptures calling for death and annihilation to dictate western policies and threaten their countries. Which leads us to a fascinating question: what if The Interview involved a country like Qatar or Brunei, and they cursed the US and threatened them? Would Slott's reaction be the same? Or would it be different? Suppose Sally Field's movie Not Without My Daughter were filmed today rather than in 1991, what would he think and say? Also odd is how a man giving telling hints of his leftist standpoints is willing to attack a country that could have some of the same policies in place. And he's working for a company whose modern staff forbid any negative word on Islam, so honestly, does he have a point?

I'm sure we'd all like to think Slott's suddenly found some brains, but the signs still indicate that's a long way off.

HARVARD ALMOST CAVED TO ANTI-ISRAELISTS HOSTILE TO SODASTREAM

Harvard University almost stopped using Sodastream products because Muslim students opposed them. But the president of the university recognized the wrong and ensured common sense would prevail:

Harvard University’s president has requested an investigation into the decision by the university’s dining service to stop buying SodaStream equipment.

Drew Faust asked for an investigation into the decision, Provost Alan Garber told The Harvard Crimson student newspaper on Wednesday night.

The request came following an article written earlier in the day by the newspaper reporting that the university’s dining service agreed in April to halt buying the equipment following protests by Palestinian students and their supporters.

The dining service agreed to remove the SodaStream labels on existing water machines and purchase new ones from American companies after university officials met in April with members of the Harvard College Palestine Solidarity Committee and the Harvard Islamic Society, the newspaper reported Wednesday.

“Harvard University’s procurement decisions should not and will not be driven by individuals’ views of highly contested matters of political controversy,” Garber wrote in an email statement to the Crimson late Wednesday night. “If this policy is not currently known or understood in some parts of the University, that will be rectified now.”

Garber said in the statement that neither he nor Faust was aware of the decision before reading about it in the newspaper. The existing machines are from a company acquired by SodaStream, an Israeli firm that has been a target of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement because of its factory in the West Bank settlement of Maale Adumim.

I'm not sure if Sodastream is still running this kind of business, but the university shouldn't be allowing this kind of fanaticism to dominate their campus. In fact, universities shouldn't even be platforms for politics; I thought they were supposed to be for learning trades like science, medicine, and agriculture. Political nonsense should be the last thing any university or college wants littering their grounds with its toxic effects.

THE ANTI-COP POGROM AKA THE OBAMA INTIFADA

A FEW WEEKS AGO, WE CALLED THE  LEFT'S ORGANIZED, NATIONAL AND COORDINATED ASSAULT ON POLICE A POGROM.

WIKI:

A pogrom is a violent riot aimed at massacre or persecution of an ethnic or religious group, particularly one aimed at Jews. The term originally entered the English language to describe 19th- and 20th-centuryattacks on Jews in the Russian Empire (mostly within the Pale of Settlement in present-day Ukraine and Belarus). Similar attacks against Jews at other times and places also became retrospectively known as pogroms. The word is now also sometimes used to describe publicly sanctioned purgative attacks against non-Jewish ethnic or religious groups.^{[4][5][6][7][8]}

WITH THE RECENT ASSASSINATION OF TWO NYPD COPS, MAYBE EVERYONE WILL SOON START TO AGREE THAT THIS IS NOW A POGROM.

IT STARTED IN A NON-VIOLENT WAY; THE LEFT STARTED WITH A POLITICAL ATTACK ON OUR DEFENSES:

THE NYPD HAVE ALREADY BEEN ORDERED BY THE SEIU/WORKING FAMILIES PARTY/NLG-SUPPORTED SOCIALIST MAYOR DEBLASIO TO END STOP-AND-FRISK AND END ALL MOSQUE SURVEILLANCE.

THESE TWO MOVES HAVE MADE. NYC LESS SAFE FOR LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS AND SAFER FOR ARMED CRIMINALS AND JIHADISTS.

THE LEFTIST INSPIRED POLITICAL ATTACKS ON THE POLICE AND THE ASSASSINATIONS FURTHER WEAKEN OUR FIRST LINE IF DEFENSE.

THIS IS THE ENEMY'S GOAL.

THE JIHADISTS ARE USING THE SAME TACTICS IN ISRAEL AND ISLAMIST NEIGHBORHOODS IN EUROPE.

IT'S A POGROM. AN INTIFADA. THE OBAMA INTIFADA. 

BROWN'S DEATH IN FERGUSON AND GARNER'S DEATH IN NYC ARE PALLYWOOD EVENTS LIKE THE SUPPOSED DEATH OF MOHAMED AL DURAH.

(MORE ON AL DURAH HERE.)

UPDATE - VIA GATEWAY:

Ferguson protesters were back out on the street Saturday night in St. Louis.One protester wore a skeleton mask. Another protest leader, Bassem Masri, wore a Palestinian keffiyah scarf.

JUST MORE PROOF THERE IS A POLITICAL CONNECTION BETWEEN THE ANTI-SEMITIC JIHADISTS ABROAD AND THE LEFTISTS AT HOME.

IF ALLOWED TO CONTINUE, NYC WILL SOON RESEMBLE CHICAGO AND DETROIT,  AND THEN CAIRO AND KABUL.

THIS ASSAULT ON TRUTH AND OUR ABILITY TO DEFEND OURSELVES WON'T END HERE UNTIL WE NEUTRALIZE OBAMA AND DEBLASIO AND SHARPTON AND THEIR COMRADES. 

THE 114TH CONGRESS MUST USE ANY AND ALL CONSTITUTIONAL MEANS TO NEUTRALIZE OBAMA.

IF THEY FAIL TO ACT, THEN THE VIOLENCE WILL ONLY GET WORSE.

SOMETHING THAT OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES WOULD LIKE.
