News reports are not including the names or nationalities of the three men that caused the Washington D.C. to Portland, OR flight to land in Chicago. But passengers on the flight described them as ‘Middle Eastern.’
What are the chances they were from Israel? That’s in the Middle East. They were probably just playing a game called ‘test the system.’ Want to play ‘guess their religion?’
More on this story at Debbie Schlussel.
Potential candidate for president Herman Cain was asked one of those ‘gotcha’ questions by some reporter. Something like, would you put a Muslim in your cabinet?
Knowing that the Koran, or Quran, promotes deception (lying) for the purpose of advancing Islam, Mr. Cain is more correct than he might know in not putting blind faith in any Muslim. Because of the Koran, it comes down to trust but verify doesn’t it?
Islam is the only religion that I know of that not only permits but requires deception under certain circumstances. We are engaged in a war right now against radical Islam. Given his explanation above, American Muslims that understand this will also understand why he answered the way he did.
What’s new is that Herman Cain is not going to be distracted by political correctness. Talk about a breath of fresh air.
Peggy Noonan wrote an article in the Wall Street Journal that perfectly lays out what Americans are thinking.
I cannot for the life of me see how an American
president can launch a serious military action without a full and formal national address in which he explains to the American people why he is doing what he is doing, why it is right, and why it is very much in the national interest.
The absence of such a statement from our President, the Commander In Chief, is especially puzzling when you consider his previous position on the use of our military.
“I don’t oppose all wars … what I am opposed to is a dumb war.” – Barack Obama, 2002
For the first time, Obama is the Commander-in-Chief of a war that he authored rather than inherited. And the man who a decade ago anointed himself the arbiter of intelligent warfare is leading the U.S. into a conflict that is questionable on its merits and incoherent in its execution.
The blatant in-over-his-head behavior of our president is embarrassing. Certainly causing belly laughs in Iran, North Korea, China, and Russia.

For days now we’ve head the story about Somali outlaws that pirated a boat with 4 Americans on board. The Americans were trying to live out their retirement sailing off of the East coast of Africa, and passing out bibles along the way as missionaries. As an aside, merely having bibles can get you killed in Islamic extremist circles.
While being shadowed and finally approached by the U.S. Navy, the Somalis shot and killed all of their hostages several hundred miles south of Oman.
Here’s where the plot thickens. According to The White House . . .
President Barack Obama was awakened to news of the deaths at 4:42 a.m. Washington time Tuesday. He had authorized the military on Saturday to use force in case of an imminent threat to the hostages, said White House spokesman Jay Carney.
And the headlines are US condemns pirate killings, Navy holding suspects. And Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in a statement that the killings were “deplorable” and that they underscored the need for international cooperation on fighting the scourge of piracy in waters off the Horn of Africa. Like that’s going to have any consequence.
The remains of the four were taken aboard the USS Enterprise, as were 15 suspected pirates now facing charges in the deaths.
What’s wrong with this picture? If the Navy was authorized by the Commander In Chief to use force, why would there be 15 ‘suspects’ in custody? After all the history of these pirates, using our military to be constables is an abuse of the military. Forget the ‘suspected pirates’ angle, they are confirmed murderers on the high seas.
Just another case where President Obama cares less about protecting and defending Americans than the Islamic goons who murdered them. The Navy should let those prisoners go immediately. And I don’t mean in a boat. Take no prisoners. For their crimes, letting them go 600 miles out at sea is the best place for them.
How is it that the uprising in Egypt appeared to happen practically overnight? Was our State Dept. unaware or just keeping us in the dark? The media? Forget them.
And which way is Egypt going? Towards Iran and Lebanon, or towards the West?
Uh, is it time to start drilling yet?
Mr. President, it’s 3 A.M. President Mubarak is on the phone.
Mr. President!
So we’ve got an Islamic extremist Imam caught in the trunk of a car sneaking into the country from Mexico, and an extremist Islamic book from Iran found in the desert on the trail into the U.S..
Yawn, did you see Winter Wipeout on TV last night?
Fortunately, someone is staying on top of things like terrorists making way into the U.S. and how ICE is protecting us. Debbie Schlussel adds the rest of the story.
[t]he extremist imam who illegally tried to sneak into the U.S. has already agreed to testify against the traitorous American who drove him here. He didn’t agree to do this “just ‘cuz.” Usually that’s in exchange for some sort of deal–the U.S. government agreeing not to jail this bastard . . . or even giving the imam assurances that he can stay on U.S. shores indefinitely.
Are authorities kissing up to Imam Said Jaziri? I suppose time will tell.

The suicide bombing in a Moscow airport is believed to have been carried out by Christian Islamic militants. Death toll is at 35 and over 100 are wounded.
In Washington, President Barack Obama condemned the “outrageous act of terrorism” and offered any assistance.
I applaud President Obama for his correct use of the T-word. It was not an outrageous man-made disaster. That was a terrorist attack. Now if he will get DHS Secretary Janet (Big Sis) Napolitano on board, then everyone will be on the same page.
Imagine being in your 9th grade geography class and talking about different climates associated with different locations. Like what happened in a school in Spain recently.
The teacher was giving a normal lesson about the different climates on our planet, and he used the locality of Trevélez [Granada] as example of a cold and dry climate. For an anecdote, the teacher explained that precisely this climate was best for the curing of hams. Then the student demanded of the teacher, “Don’t speak about hams,” because this subject was offensive for him as he is a Muslim.
This is going way beyond political correctness. There seems to be some kind of new Muslim supremacy being taught nowadays that kids would even think of such an absurd claim.
I wonder if we’re not looking at the Muslim version of the KKK?
Which picture is more offensive to you?
This
or this?

The WikiLeaks de facto declassification of privileged material makes it case closed: Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destructio
n — and intended to restart his program once the heat was off.
President George W. Bush, in the 2003 State of the Union address, uttered the infamous “16 words”: “The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.”
Former Ambassador Joe Wilson sprang into action and, in an op-ed piece, in effect wrote, “No, the Cheney administration sent me to investigate the allegation — and I found it without merit.”
I never doubted for a moment what Saddam Hussein’s intentions were, or that he did exactly what Bush and the British government said he did. And I credit Ted Kennedy (D-MA) for being the first to politicize the war effort. And, the rest is history.

Is the TSA making us safe? Have they ever caught a terrorist entering a gate? Unless you live under the overpass in a Kenmore refrigerator double-wide cardboard box, you’ve heard all the attention that the new screening techniques has been getting in the news lately.
It is interesting to me, if not puzzling, to note the alternate universe of opinion about it. From a political perspective, there seems to have been some sort of role reversal. The hawks on the Right, who one would think would embrace this crotch grabbing of airline passengers, back away from it. Not only because they think there is a better, and less intrusive, way to accomplish the same goal, but also because of Constitutional protections and privacy rights that are being violated. The pacifists on the Left, who one would think would have a cow at such invasions of privacy (especially if the president was an R), generally don’t see any problem with feeling up your wife, daughter, or 5 year-old son. Considering the terrorists have hidden explosives inside the body orifices, what’s next for the TSA?
Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) was interviewed by talk radio host Alex Jones on the subject . . .
Responding to Alex Jones’ assertion that the TSA’s actions are akin to what the Nazis did in Germany during the 1930s, Ron Paul said that we long ago capitulated on “showing our papers” and now routinely provide Social Security numbers to employers and show our government issued driver’s license as an accepted form of identification. “Now the government wants us to show them our genitalia and they want to take pictures of us and put their hands into our pants,” he said.
How did the Obama administration’s TSA and Homeland Security get to this point? I think Ann Coulter nailed it in this one sentence, ‘Only because the terrorists are Muslims do we pretend not to notice who keeps trying to blow up our planes.’
(The rumor that Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) went back in line after being screened has not yet been confirmed.)
