Rudy Giuliani: A privileged cracker devil

From the files of Colonel Allen B. West and written by Michele Hickford, Editor-in-Chief

Meet Michele Hickford

While putting together this article about the blatant display of hypocrisy from the media over Rudy Giuliani’s temerity to question the patriotism of the Great and Powerful O (no, not Oprah), I came across this little tidbit from Louis Farrakhan.

Farrakhan holds nothing back in his criticism of Mayor Giuliani’s recent comments about Obama, saying Giuliani “grew up on the sweat and blood of black men and women who made America before your fathers got here” and calling him not just a “privileged cracker,” but a privileged “devil.”

Yep, we white folk will forever be punished for the sins of those who supported slavery in this country – even if our forebears were nowhere near this country when slavery existed – simply because we’re still white.

But back to the subject of dissent…

As Guy Benson writes for Townhall, “During the Bush years, we were often reminded, dissent was the “highest form of patriotism.” Over the course of Obama’s tenure, dissent became dangerous, disrespectful, un-American and quite possibly racist.”

Most definitely racist, as Rev. Farrakhan so passionately points out.


“When a conservative figure says something that seems to impugn or question a prominent liberal’s character or love of country – particularly a black liberal — “civility” SWAT teams are dispatched to knock down some proverbial doors. Such transgressions mustn’t stand.”

It doesn’t take a brain surgeon like Dr. Ben Carson to recognize that Republicans are forced to play by different rules, because the press tends to be made up of liberal Democrats and they enforce the rules. Unfortunately, Republicans continue to accept them.

Not all of course…

My boss, Col. Allen West, energetically refuses to follow the Liberal Civility Code of Conduct — for which he is routinely vilified.

Even new Internet star CJ Pearson has been called an “Uncle Tom” (and he’s only 12 years old by the way) for his video criticism of the president.

But many thanks to Guy Benson for providing this handy list of what IS permissible under the Liberal Civility Code of Conduct.

(1) White House spokespeople calling Republic suicide bombers, kidnappers and arsonists budget tactics.

(2) President Obama flatly stating that the GOP wants dirty air and water, and opposes people having healthcare.

(3) House Democratic leadership branding Obamacare critics “un-American.”

(4) Nancy Pelosi calling House Republicans “unpatriotic.”

(5) Lovely Debbie Wasserman Schultz chairwoman asserting that Republicans want to “literally” drag America back to the Jim Crow era.

(6) Less lovely Harry Reid sliming private citizens with whom he disagrees as “un-American.” I guess because they have the chutzpah to actually contribute to the United Negro College Fund. Of maybe it’s just racist. I don’t know.

(7) House Democrats comparing conservatives and Republicans to “demons,” “fascists,” generic Nazis (on several occasions), — and, of course, Hitler. 

(8) Vice President Biden allegedly referring to the Tea Party’s “terrorist” tactics.

(9) The New York Times saying that the Tea Party Republicans have waged jihad on the American people.

With the deluge of horrific images courtesy of the ISIS production studios, I would hope comparisons to terror tactics and jihad will cease. But just in case, I’ll end with this photo comparison to assist liberals in telling the difference between the Tea Party and actual jihad.

Can someone please get this to Rasputin aka Valerie Jarrett for President Obama to view? It’s just 5 minutes long, surely it can hold his attention that long.

The great thing about history, regardless of what a teleprompter says, is it cannot be revised. At least for the literate.

Which was worse? Watch the data and you decide. This video is part of Bill Warner's astounding lecture: "Why we are afraid. A 1400 years secret"

The other cause of terrorism

The Other Cause of Terrorism from the Warning Signs of Alan Caruba at Facts-not-Fantasy

Know the Warning Signs from Caruba at Facts-not-Fantasy

I never fail to be astonished by the amount of corruption there is in the world. It is a very human trait whether it was royalty asserting that they ruled by God’s choice until their subjects rose up against them or modern day despots encountering the same fate.

Available On Line Now

Sarah Chayes has authored “Thieves of State: Why Corruption Threatens Global Security” ($26.95, W.W. Norton) and it is quite timely when you consider that corruption ignited the “Arab Spring”, first in Tunisia when a peddler grew so tired of the police asking for bribes that he set himself afire in protest.

Its dictator’s wife openly displayed the nation’s stolen wealth for which they were driven from power. In Egypt there was a similar response when the public tired of the looting of the state treasury by Mubarak’s son. Revolts from Libya to Syria have been generated by the same cause.

Corruption in the Middle East has a long history, but it is worldwide and, depending on the nation, is either tolerated as part of the way the culture does business or resisted by governments who understand that it undermines their legitimacy. Throw a dart at the map of the world and you are likely to hit a nation where corruption is influencing current events.

As Chayes notes, “Time and again U.S. officials are blindsided by major developments in countries where they work. Too often they are insensible to the perspectives and aspirations of population.”

A classic example is Afghanistan where both the Soviet Union and the U.S. ran into such ingrained corruption that it undermined their objectives, the former to turn it into a satellite and the latter to turn it into a modern, democratic government. Chayes cites Afghanistan as a classic example of why the Taliban emerged as a jihadist movement.

Corruption in the form of bribes, kick-backs, cronyism, is so deeply engrained in Afghanistan that it generated a movement to replace it with sharia law by Islamists.

“If the very Afghan officials by whose sides they planned to combat extremists were generating those extremists themselves—by having men shake down travelers and taking a cut, or leaving bills unpaid, or by providing judiciously selected ‘intelligence’ to engineer a night-raid against a rival trafficking network—it was too big a paradox to take in. NATO officers,” said Chayes, “did not want to know.”

“The corruption networks” in Afghanistan, writes Chayes, “were just too vertically integrated: any move against any official, no matter how lowly, would reverberate all the way up the chain to Karzai.”

In the 1960s and 1970s, Afghanistan had been a constitutional monarchy with a national assembly and local elders affording a check on executive power. “Citizens expected a decent education from their government, health care, even employment in state-owned industries.” That changed when Hamid Karzai took over. At that point government became a criminal enterprise.

The 9/11 attack prompted the U.S. to invade to drive out al Qaeda, but it also led to its staying on to fight the perceived enemies of Afghanistan. They—otherwise known as the Taliban—were being generated in part by the desire to drive out the corrupt Karzai administration.

What we tend to forget about the “Arab Spring” was that “millions of Arabs chose a constructive way to force change. They chose political revolution—a peaceful, civic, inclusive, and responsible form of revolt—directed square at their own leaderships, not at Western countries, not even those seen as regime allies.”

This is not to suggest that Islamism hasn’t degraded from its opposition to widespread corruption into organizations seeking to take control over the nations where it has spread. It has and this is most evidence in the incredibly corrupt nation of Nigeria where since 2009 Boko Haram has developed terrorism to new heights of barbarity—if that is possible.

An oil-rich nation, the billions that it generates have gone missing thanks to the administration of Nigerian president, Goodluck Jonathan. The police in Nigeria are hated as much as Boko Haram and, as we have seen, have not demonstrated any ability to eliminate the terrorist organization.

Why would any police officer or member of the armed forces want to die for a corrupt, kleptocratic administration? This was true back in the days when the U.S. was fighting in Vietnam, true when the Iraqi armed forces fled from those of the Islamic State, and it explains why even the active participation of U.S. forces does not result in victory against the terrorist organizations.

Why then should we be surprised that many throughout the Middle East have turned to Islam to address the problems they encounter from the corruption of their governments? “Lured by militant advocates of a religious ordering of human affairs, they will seek to roll back four hundred years of political history.”

In the West, we regard those regions of the world where corruption is rampant as backward. We can be forgiven for forgetting that our ancestors in England, the Netherlands, and parts of France laid the groundwork for modern democracy by their efforts to curb the corruption of the monarchies that enjoyed the good life at the expense of their subjects.

By the time the Founders came together to create the U.S. Constitution, they had been well-schooled and experienced in what it would require to keep corruption at bay with a government whose powers were limited and divided among executive, legislative, and judicial branches.

We are their beneficiaries, but that does not mean we have defeated corruption. The vast entitlement programs are just one example of the way millions are secured illegally by deception and disbursement. Other forms of corruption are addressed in the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act that forbids the use of bribery by corporations doing business in foreign nations.

The U.S. is not alone, however. Just as occurred in 2008, the too close relationship of the banking community and government led to financial crises in Ireland and Iceland. The public’s rejection of corruption in Ukraine led to its current civil unrest.

The role of corruption in the nations experiencing Islamic terrorism cannot be underestimated. Its role in the conduct of the world’s affairs is huge and a constant threat whose many forms must be understood, addressed, and eliminated to the greatest degree possible.

Islamic conference: WTC bombing speaker

Right here in Texas: Islamic conference features speaker implicated in WTC bombing from the files of Colonel Allen B. West

Siraj Wahhaj - Read the Allen West Files

I was at an event in Austin where Governor Rick Perry described me as “the newest Texan.” I figured coming to the Lone Star state, there’d be some things I could put behind me — namely the stealth Islamic jihadist presence that we know exists in South Florida at the University of South Florida, Florida Atlantic University, and throughout the area.

Some of you may remember the exchange I had back during a town hall meeting in Pompano Beach with the leader of the South Florida Council for American Islamic Relations (CAIR), Nazir Hamze.

Here’s the video to refresh your memory.


It’s important we know the history of Dar-al-Islam and its near 1400-year fight against Western civilization and its desire for establishment of the proclaimed caliphate by conquest.

Well, it seems the same Islamist presence is looking for a “base” (which is by the way, what “al-Qaida” means) for operations here in the Dallas metroplex area, and in fact has a big conference planned with some “heavy hitters” scheduled to speak.

As reported by Western Journalism, “An Islamic conference scheduled for next Saturday in Texas features two speakers who have advocated for Sharia law, and one of them was an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center (WTC) bombing. “

“The group Sound Vision is hosting a conference on January 17 called “Stand with the Prophet in Honor and Respect” in Garland, Texas, about a half hour from downtown Dallas. This event is designed to combat “Islamophobia” and “Stand with the Prophet,” according to a promotion on Sound Vision’s website: “Sound Vision is focused on building the Strategic Communication Center that will Inshallah lead the effort against Islamophobia by keeping our neighbors as friends and young Muslims as strong Muslims as healthy citizens.”

What I find incredible is that the event is designed to “combat Islamophobia” — which to me means how do we condemn those who are speaking the truth against Islamo-fascism and get them to self-censor.

I’m sorry, but after what just occurred in France we must be more vigilant and resolute against the cancerous message that is being promulgated all across our country. And the fact that, just as with CAIR, we are allowing an unindicted co-conspirator in a terrorist attack to have a platform in America — well, that’s very disconcerting to say the least.

I have no issue with freedom of speech, but when that speech is antithetical to the values of our Constitutional Republic, there is an issue. That speech is not free, it is seditious — and Sharia Law is not in keeping with the principles and values of our rule of law, the U.S. Constitution.

Western Journalism reports, “at least two of the presenters scheduled to speak at the event in suburban Dallas next weekend have a checkered past. It has been documented that Brooklyn-based Imam Siraj Wahhaj, who was an unindicted co-conspirator of the 1993 WTC bombing, has preached in favor of Sharia, documented as recently as 2007: “Islam is better than democracy. Allah will cause his deen [Islam as a complete way of life], Islam to prevail over every kind of system, and you know what? It will happen.”

This imam is scheduled to speak not far from the location of our new home. Shouldn’t we ask this fella, what do you mean, “Islam is better than democracy?” Do we care so little for our system of governance that anyone can openly promote its fall? When a nation can’t even defend its own system of governance, we have men like those in Paris who felt emboldened to conduct their barbaric act of silencing those satirical cartoonists — as they stated, “we have avenged the prophet.”

At least we have Egyptian President al-Sisi who will stand up to these incendiary imams, but maybe to some here in America, democracy does need to be conquered. We’re already seeing those on the left blaming the cartoonists. We have those who believe the assailants were justified, as they had been offended. These are some very conflicting messages — but they are emboldening messages to the champions of Islamic jihad.

According to The Clarion Project, Imam Wahhaj has also preached the following: “If Allah says 100 strikes, 100 strikes it is. If Allah says cut off their hand, you cut off their hand. If Allah says stone them to death, through the prophet Muhammad, then you stone them to death, because it’s the obedience of Allah and his messenger – nothing personal.”

Now yesterday we brought you the story about a simple memorial in a North Carolina city of a kneeling Soldier and a Christian flag that was deemed offensive, and a violation of separation of church and state.

Aren’t any secular humanist organizations offended when a religion advocates slicing off hands and stoning people to death? Why is it they’re so “offended” by a Judeo-Christian heritage, which advocates for unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? Methinks I will side with the latter.

“Sound Vision’s founding chairman, Abdul Malik Mujahid, made similar comments in 1995, when he said: “Qital [killing] is an essential element of Islam. And sometimes you don’t like it.” Mujahid continued: “Qital is ordained upon you, though it is hateful to you, but it may happen that you hate a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that you love a thing which is bad for you. “

Just so you know, Sound Vision isn’t something brand new. They’ve held other “conferences” in places like Long Island, New York, and Chicago (that figures).

I can’t support this conference being held here in Garland, Texas. The positions of these featured speakers are in contrast to our fundamental beliefs — but then again, perhaps they are part of the fundamental transformation of America.

The progressive socialists want to “turn Texas blue.” What is the objective of these Islamo-fascists?

Ruining Christmas 2014

Ruining Christmas 2014 from the Warning Signs of Alan Caruba at Facts-not-Fantasy

Know Caruba's Warning Signs

As usual, those for whom laws, ethics, and good will mean nothing have come together to try to ruin Christmas for the rest of us.

Christmas means different things to different people and depends to a large degree on age. For the young it is a magical time of getting gifts. As one grows older it is a time of giving gifts and sending cards.

And for the very old who have outlived many family members and friends, it is tinged with sadness. In between is an orgy of advertising using Santa Claus to sell cars and much else.

I will begin with a fulsome condemnation of those who go to court or raise a cry about the presence of Christmas displays or any religious symbol on “public land.” The Constitution does not forbid this. It forbids “the establishment of religion” which was understood to mean laws that made a particular religion a state religion such as the Church of England that exists today. The fact that some courts today do not understand this does not change the meaning or intent of the Constitution.

Christmas 2014, it must be said, is fraught with all manner of threats to our society and our nation.

After several weeks of portraying police as the problem, two of them were assassinated as payback for the deaths of a Ferguson, Missouri thug and a Staten Island petty thief. Insanely some people marched in the streets shouting that they wanted “More dead cops.” From the President and his “advisor” Al Sharpton, the Attorney General, and even the Mayor of New York, the message was that the police are the enemy.

It is progressives—Communists—who are the enemy. Welcome to the 1950s all over again.

Obama and Holder have been ginning up racial division since they took office. It casts a pall over a nation that prides itself on having a BLACK President, a BLACK Attorney General, and a legion of BLACKS who have worked hard to achieve success in public service and the private sector.

All this may strike some as strange given the outcome of the recent midterm elections in which the Republican Party won 54 of the Senate’s 100 seats, expanded its majority in the House, and now have 31 governors because the voters want real CHANGE. Will they get it? Sadly, Americans are beginning to think that there is a third party, the Government Party, composed of those in Washington, DC for whom our demands hold little merit while they toil to make government bigger. I hope the GOP proves me wrong in 2015.

Another sad feature of American politics these days is the fact that it is owned by two families, the Bushes and the Clintons. America is a Republic, not a monarchy. Something is terribly wrong when both parties have no one else to offer than Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton, members of two political families that have been around since the 1970s. Enough is enough!

There is no question among those of us old enough to remember when America had a set of beliefs, some spiritual, some secular, that held our society together for the good of all. One of those was the belief that marriage was between a man and a woman. It has been that way for thousands of years, yet for Americans in 35 states “marriage” is now something between members of the same sex. I doubt, too, that you have read that the FDA has taken a first step to lift the ban prohibiting gay men from donating blood because of the high incidence of AIDS among them.

The same destruction of society can be found in the movement to legalize marijuana. It is a dangerous drug.

Beyond our shores, the nation has always had its enemies. They are more often than not nations who grant no freedom to their own citizens. The most recent example is North Korea and, for a variety of complicated and interrelated reasons (China!) the U.S. has been unable to respond with strength to its nuclear threats. The hacking of Sony Pictures was an act of cyber war, not “vandalism” as the President would have you believe. The threats that accompanied it made that clear.

The irony of our immigration problem is that America is still regarded with such high esteem that many want to come and live here. Some want it bad enough to sneak in. We now have several million illegal aliens living among us and both political parties do not see them has having broken the laws of our nation, but as potential new voters! That’s crazy and it’s dangerous when a President makes it known that he doesn’t think our borders must be defended. We have immigration laws for the same reason every other nation does and they must be enforced.

The hotspot in the world is the Middle East. Does anyone find it ironic that the “Prince of peace” was born in a nation, Israel, that much of the rest of the world wants to destroy? I find that depressing. The Arabs, supported by Europe and the Obama administration, are trying to get the U.N. to declare that the “Palestinians” are a state or nation. Only there has never been a Palestinian nation, a term invented by Roman Emperor Hadrian for the land 3,000 years of history records as Israel.

When you add in the butchery and slaughter of the Islamic State, you have everything you need to know about Islam; those who believe in cutting off the heads of Americans and others because they are unbelievers—infidels—need to be destroyed down to the last man. Add in al Qaeda and Boko Haram, and you have more enemies of mankind. There are over a billion Muslims and an estimated ten percent support the “holy war.” That’s a hundred million people and that’s a lot of trouble.

About the only good news is the way their dependence on oil has displayed the weakness of nations like the Russian Federation and Venezuela, among others. These nations have failed to develop a viable private sector. Cuba, dependent for years on Soviet support and then Venezuelan, both Communist, just scored a coup when President Obama granted it U.S. diplomatic recognition.

How many more Christmases will the world celebrate before we understand that Communism is a threat to mankind? There’s still too much of it in the world. It has found a home in the White House.

America has celebrated Christmas in the midst of two world wars in the last century and a score of lesser wars. We are a resilient people. We are reviving an economy that suffered a great financial crisis in 2008 thanks to bad government policies regarding mortgages and housing. The bad news is that those policies have been reinstated.

My Christmas will pass like the last 77 have. I wish it were a happier one.

Sydney murders: Coming to your neighborhood

Sydney will happen here from Judson Phillips at the Tea Party Nation

Click Here to Visit the Tea Party Nation

For 24 hours, the media was fixated on a hostage crisis in Sydney Australia.

A Muslim who shockingly enough supported Jihad took hostages. After the end of a day, two victims and the Muslim were dead.

The media went into its usual spasms about how we cannot blame Islam for this. In Australia, the idiotic left started a hashtag campaign called, #illridewithyou to prevent a backlash against the Muslim community.

Once again, political correctness forbids sane people from addressing the cause of the problem. The problem is Islam.

As authorities look at this history of the Sydney Jihadist hostage taker, guess what they are finding?

From Breitbart:

Evidence has surfaced on social media that jihadi hostage taker “Sheikh” Haron had previously displayed radical views, had deep connections with the Muslim community in Sydney, and expressed an unapologetic devotion to Islam.

“Sheikh” Haron’s barbaric views included blaming women for “encouraging” their rape, a belief that is widely held throughout Islamic lands.

“It is not fair that we condemn the rapist without condemning the one who has encouraged the rape,” said a burka-clad spokeswoman on his YouTube channel.

“Making a comment, or making a signal, or wearing inappropriate clothes,” could contribute to a rape, she added.

On December 6th, in what appears to be Haron's feed but could not be independently verified by Breitbart News, he wrote on Twitter that America is the true promulgator of terrorism, which explains why Muslims fight against the U.S.

Just a glance at his Twitter feed reveals that on numerous occasions, Haron often cited verses from the Quran and expressed his devotion to Islam.

Most of the links expressed on his Twitter feed redirect to a Facebook page, believed to be Haron’s, which was taken down shortly after he was revealed to be the hostage taker.

More videos have surfaced showing evidence that Haron was active in Sydney’s Muslim community. Can this happen in America? It will happen. Why?

The Obama Regime is importing record numbers of Muslims to this nation. At a time when we have record unemployment, why are we importing more people to compete with Americans for jobs?

And why are we importing people with an ideology that hates the west?

From WND:

The federal government is preparing for another “surge” in refugees and this time they won’t be coming illegally from Central America.

The U.S. State Department announced this week that the first major contingent of Syrian refugees, 9,000 of them, have been hand-selected by the United Nations for resettlement into communities across the United States.

The announcement came Tuesday on the State Department’s website.

WND reported in September that Syrians would make up the next big wave of Muslim refugees coming to the U.S., as resettlement agencies were lobbying for the U.S. to accept at least 75,000 Syrian refugees over the next five years.

Until now, the U.S. had accepted only 300 of the more than 3.2 million refugees created by the Syrian civil war in which ISIS, El Nusra and other Sunni Muslim jihadist rebels are locked in a protracted battle with the Shiite regime of Bashar al-Assad.

But the U.S. government has been the most active of all nations in accepting Islamic refugees from other war-torn countries, such as Iraq, Somalia and the Democratic Republic of Congo. 

Now, the Syrians will be added to the mix. They are cleared for refugee status by the U.N. high commissioner on refugees (UNHCR), who assigns them to various countries.

Once granted refugee status by the U.N. they are screened by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for any ties to terrorist organizations. 

The State Department announcement makes it clear that the 9,000 refugees represent just the beginning of an extended program to accept more Syrians.

There are hundreds of places these people can be sent. Why are we bringing them to America?

Importing Islamists to America means only one thing. We will see more terrorism in our nation.

Death to Jews and Americans praised by Obama

Obama praises Muslim cleric who called for death of Jews and Americans at UN from the files of Allen B. West

Read the Allen B. West Files

We reported here on Islamist Muslim cleric when he was invited to a meeting with members of the Obama administration national security council. Bayyah’s exploits are well known in the proper circles — such as his backing of a 2004 fatwa that advocated violent resistance against Americans fighting in Iraq. So it was probably overlooked by many when he was personally mentioned and praised in Barack Hussein Obama’s UN General Assembly speech on Wednesday.

As reported by the Washington Free Beacon, “President Barack Obama favorably quoted and praised on Wednesday in his speech before the United Nations a controversial Muslim cleric whose organization has reportedly endorsed the terror group Hamas and supported a fatwa condoning the murder of U.S. soldiers in Iraq.

Obama in his remarks offered praise to controversial cleric Sheikh Abdallah Bin Bayyah and referred to him as a moderate Muslim leader who can help combat the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant’s (ISIL or ISIS) radical ideology.”

Is this the new normal of the Obama administration to categorize “moderate” islamists as praiseworthy just because they tend not to publicly behead people? Sheik Bayyah’s rhetoric is just as dangerous and truly controversial. It seems that Obama is so strenuously seeking to defend Islam that he is willing to embrace Hamas, Hezbollah, and other islamist groups.

“This is not the first time that the Obama administration has extoled Bin Bayyah, who also has served as the vice president of a Muslim scholars group founded by a radical Muslim Brotherhood leader who has called “for the death of Jews and Americans,” according to Fox News and other reports. The State Department’s Counterterrorism Bureau (CT) was forced to issue multiple apologies earlier this year after the Washington Free Beacon reported on its promotion of Bin Bayyah on Twitter.”

So why would Obama blatantly advocate and promote Bin Bayyah on the great stage of the UN General Assembly knowing this — or did he not know, or did he just disregard what is known is his narcissistic belligerence?

The Beacon reports, “on Wednesday before the UN Obama stated, “The ideology of ISIL or al Qaeda or Boko Haram will wilt and die if it is consistently exposed, confronted, and refuted in the light of day, according to a White House transcript of his remarks. Look at the new Forum for Promoting Peace in Muslim Societies—Sheikh bin Bayyah described its purpose: ‘We must declare war on war, so the outcome will be peace upon peace,’” Obama said, quoting the controversial cleric.”

I call taquiyya on that. As well, why would Obama stand before the UN and us here in America declaring that Islam teaches peace? I can provide just a few examples from history to refute that assertion.

What is going on with Obama and this administration? Why would he try to make a comparative assessment between ISIS and Ferguson, Missouri? Here we are stepping up security awareness in America — specifically New York and New Jersey — after Obama has said al-Qaida is decimated and on the run, Iraq is stable, ISIS is a “JV” team, and there’s no “imminent threat” to our homeland.

Osama bin Laden is dead, “What difference at this point does it make” — bin Laden’s death was a good thing but not the seminal end to the war against Islamo-fascism and jihadism. However, Osama’s death by heroic US Navy SEAL Team VI members ended up just being a campaign slogan. The last thing we need to do is embrace some controversial Islamic cleric.

As reported by the Beacon, “Patrick Poole, a reporter and terrorism analyst who has long tracked Bin Bayyah, expressed shock that the Obama administration would endorse the cleric on the world stage.

“It is simply amazing that just a few months ago the State Department had to publicly apologize for tweeting out it’s support for Bin Bayyah, only to have Barack Obama go before the leaders of the entire world and publicly endorse Bin Bayyah’s efforts,” Poole said.

“It seems that nothing can stop this administration’s determination to rehabilitate Bin Bayyah’s image, transforming him from the Islamic cleric who issued the fatwa to kill Americans in Iraq and calling for the death of Jews to the de facto White House Islamic mufti,” he said. This type of mentality has contributed to the administration’s foreign policy failures in the region,” Poole said.”

America does not need a Grand Mufti or a National Imam – so where are those secular humanists complaining about a Muslim cleric meeting in the White House on national security matters? Yep, crickets again, as always with the ever hypocritical progressive socialist Left.

America certainly does not need a president heaping accolades on a man who once called for the death of our men and women in uniform.

One word: unconscionable.

ISIS: Idiotic Spending Increases Substantially

New ISIS Definition: Idiotic Spending Increases Substantially from the files of Michael Shannon

Read the Shannon Column

Obama doesn't like to use our military to advance the interests of the United States, but when Saudi Arabia needs a Foreign Legion, he's happy to loan the Pentagon. If ISIS is an existential threat, then why don't we see Saudi and Egyptian boots–on–the–ground?

The chopping block is much closer to Cairo and Riyadh than Washington, DC.

Sure ISIS has murdered a couple of journalists, but Putin's minions in the Ukraine shot down a civilian airliner and Obama didn't so much as send a bullet. Of course they didn't post a YouTube video of the missile launch and that's probably the difference.

The Syrian Rubics Cube

The Syrian Rubics Cube from the Warning Signs by Alan Caruba at Facts-not-Fantasy

Bashar al-Assad

One has to have some sympathy for those in the CIA or the White House folks charged with telling the President what has been going on in Syria since 2011 when the opposition to Bashar al-Assad’s dictatorship turned into a fighting war. It must have looked and felt like playing with a Rubics cube where the competing groups and militias kept changing all the time.

In his book, “Inside Syria”, Reese Erlich, a Peabody Award-winning journalist and author of four books on foreign policy, has a chapter devoted to the way the Syrian revolt took shape. “The antigovernment demonstrations began in the southern city of Daraa in March 2011.”

Erlich reports that they began after police arrested several pre-teen school children for writing anti-regime graffiti on the walls of a school. Being Syria, they were beaten and tortured. More than 600 protesters confronted the local governor demanding the injured children be let free.

Security forces attacked the group and killed two of the protesters. This is in keeping with the Middle Eastern mentality and culture, something Americans, accustomed to having peaceful demonstrations, have difficulty comprehending.

“By mid-March demonstrations broke out in Damascus and other parts of the country” because the Arab Spring had let loose a vast feeling of discontent and opposition in a number of nations and the Assad regime was, to put it mildly, unpopular.

It didn’t help that “Assad cracked down mercilessly on peaceful protesters” opening fire with live ammunition. Security forces arrested and tortured anyone suspected of participating in the protest.

It is necessary to understand that it is difficult to organize Syrians or other Middle Easterners under the best or worst of conditions and that explains why Americans following events can be forgiven for trying to figure out who was doing what. That includes our intelligence community.

“Local Coordinating Committees developed spontaneously in many cities as mostly young activists created grassroots groups unaffiliated with the traditional opposition. They were united on the need to overthrow Assad, hold free elections, and establish a parliamentary system with civil liberties.”

It only took from March 2011 to July for defectors from Assad’s army to announce formation of the Free Syrian Army (FSA), followed on both sides by targeted assassinations.

For many years the Muslim Brotherhood seemed to be the most influential opposition group, but it was led by an older generation that was surprised by the events led by young Syrians. “Brotherhood leaders had cultivated extensive ties internationally, particularly with the Islamist government of Turkey.

Those leaders became major players in the formation of yet another group, the Syrian National Council, (SNC) based in Istanbul. Suffice to say that there are many secular, non-religious, Muslims in the Middle East and those in Syria were not inclined to believe anything the Brotherhood's SNC had to say.

The Obama administration had a problem figuring out who to support in the developing civil war. They opted for the Free Syrian Army, as did Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, but it was reluctant to provide arms with which to wage a war against Assad. By the spring of 2012, the FSA was asking for shoulder-fired missiles capable of bringing down aircraft and our CIA said no, fearing they would fall into the wrong hands which in Syria’s case could be virtually any other group.

Another group was Jaysh al-Islam (Army of Islam), “formed from the September 2013 merger of dozens of smaller militias, mostly in the Damascus area.” They were Islamists preferring Sharia law and they flew the black flag of jihad. By the end of 2013 they helped form the Islamic Front. To make things more confusing there was another group, Ahrar al-Sham, one of the largest militias in Syria and their aim was a Sunni Islamic state.

In November 2013, al-Sham joined with other conservative groups and they opposed the Syrian Free Army and the Syrian Military Council, along with the al Qaeda affiliated groups of al-Nusra and the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham. Confused? Who wouldn’t be?

Suffice to say al-Nusra was devoted to creating an Islamic state ruled by the Koran. In December 2012, the U.S. State Department put al-Nusra on its list of terrorist organizations because of its ties to al Qaeda, but it turned out that an even more extreme group existed, calling itself the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS). It was this group that announced it would lead an Islamic State in the area seized from Syria and Iraq.

ISIS is so extreme that in February 2014 Ayman al-Zawahri, the al Qaeda successor to bin Laden, cut ties to ISIS.

The U.S. and a handful of coalition partners are currently bombing ISIS in Syria and Iraq. In time the U.S. will have to put ground troops into the area to root out and kill ISIS.

Barack Obama has become a war President thanks to the chaos he created by removing U.S. troops from Iraq in 2011 and to the Arab Spring that swept over nations whose populations wanted to be rid of dictators like Bashar Assad.

This will not likely end soon.

Islamic ISIS beheads its way to the west

ISLAMIC ISIS: Beheading Its Way Through The West from the files of Audrey Russo at Clash Daily.com

Read the Russo Files at Clash Daily.com

What we infidels (kuffar) are seeing before our very eyes is what occurred, sans the technology, in the 7th century…but as Walter Cronkite would say in the 1940s CBS TV series…”all things are as they were then, and YOU ARE THERE.”

The rhetorical rot continues to dance out of the pie holes of various luminaries and the erudite among us, that Islam and beheadings have nothing to do with each other. These souls are either incredibly ignorant, frauds, or intellectually dishonest defenders of Islam (are there any other kind?).

The blather by politiques and media parrots denying the relationship between decapitations and Islam, can be corrected with a simple look at the actual texts of Islam’s “holy” books and the words of its scholars:

• Quranic verses that command beheadings of non-Muslims: 5:33; 8:12; 47:4; 9:123; 2:191; 5:45; 2:193; 9:29; 8:17.
• Proof of beheadings practiced by Muhammed himself (“Sirat A, Rasul” page 464): “When Banu Qurayza Jewish tribe was surrendered (627 A.D.) unconditionally, the apostle confined them in Medina in the quarter of al-Harith, a woman of B. al-Najjar. Then the apostle went out to the market of Medina (which is still its market today) and dug trenches in it. Then he sent for them and struck off their heads in those trenches as they were brought out to him in batches tying theirs both hands with their necks…”
• Sahi Buchari Hadiths #143, page-700 : ” Sulaiman Ibne Harb…Aannas Ibne Malek (ra) narrated, “in the war of Khaiber after the inhabitants of Banu Qurayza was surrendered, Allah’s apostle killed all the able/adult men, and he (prophet) took all women and children as captives…”
• According to the biography of Muhammad by Ibn Ishaq, Prophet Muhammad himself sanctioned the massacre of the Qurayza, a vanquished Jewish tribe mercilessly. Thus some 600 to 900 men from the Qurayza were lead on Muhammad’s order to the Market of Medina. Trenches were dug and the men were beheaded, and their decapitated corpses buried in the trenches while Muhammad watched in attendance. (Note: The Qurayza Jews submitted themselves to Muhammed’s mercy and he butchered them [Ishaq/Hisham 688] as his response.)

And the current savage revival of Islamists saw two innocent Americans beheaded (James Foley and Steven Sotloff) and one Brit (David Haines)…publicly. (There have been, of course, thousands of beheadings globally that are NOT getting media coverage.) Now ISIS are holding more Western journalists (they know they will get publicity by using media brethren)…and we already know of the plot foiled in Australia that would have meant the beheading of possibly dozens of innocents.

Islamists, with ISIS in the media vanguard, are beheading their way through the West.

How many more have to be butchered before the West locates a spine…attached to a brain…and smashes back the current uprising?

Unless we promote ISIS, and their ilk, to a remnant of timid toddlers cowering in a corner…we ALL better consider neck armor as our next fashion accessory.

Islamists create "NO-GO" zones across England

UK Bishop: Islamists have created no-go zones for non-Muslims across England from the files of Allen B. West

Click Here to Visit rhe Allen B. West Website

There is a key aspect in the fight against Islamo-fascism — the ideology – which we can no longer overlook, because it is festering in our homelands.

The abhorrent lesson to be learned from the beheading of British aid worker David Haines was that it was done by a fellow British citizen.

That’s not simply an “act of pure evil,” it is an act of treasonous evil. All over Western civilization we have invited into our midst a contrary belief system under the false god of multiculturalism — much to our demise. You might recall the warning from the Chaldean archbishop of Mosul, which we reported here.

Now a bishop in the United Kingdom provides another stern warning much closer to home. As reported by the UK Telegraph, “Islamic extremists have created “no-go” areas across Britain where it is too dangerous for non-Muslims to enter.

The Right Reverand Michael Nazir-Ali, whose father converted from Islam to Catholicism – making him an apostate according to Islam — is the Bishop of Rochester and the Church’s only Asian bishop. He says people of a different race or faith face physical attack if they live or work in communities dominated by a strict Muslim ideology.”

We’ve read about these areas in Europe where sharia law is practiced and host nation law enforcement doesn’t even patrol. This is what happens when multiculturalism is not about assimilation but segregation. We have already experienced instances of “honor killings” here in America — something completely antithetical to our way of life.

But naturally, the UK has its own version of CAIR as well as cultural jihadist apologists in its own government who quickly jump to attack the bishop’s comments.

As the Telegraph reports, “The Muslim Council of Britain described Bishop Nazir-Ali’s comments as “frantic scaremongering”, while William Hague, the shadow foreign secretary, said the bishop had “probably put it too strongly.”

And just like Nancy Pelosi referring to Hamas as a “humanitarian organization,” UK Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg said the idea of no-go areas was “a gross caricature of reality.” I guess the ostrich is common in England as well.

“Writing in The Sunday Telegraph, Bishop Nazir-Ali compares the threat to the use of intimidation by the far-Right, and says that it is becoming increasingly difficult for Christianity to be the nation’s public religion in a multifaith, multicultural society.

Bishop Nazir-Ali, who was born in Pakistan, gives warning that attempts are being made to give Britain an increasingly Islamic character by introducing the call to prayer and wider use of sharia law, a legal system based on the Koran.

In an attack on the Government’s response to immigration and the influx of “people of other faiths to these shores”, he blames its “novel philosophy of multiculturalism” for allowing society to become deeply divided, and accuses ministers of lacking a “moral and spiritual vision”.

We are beginning to see this happening in America as well, such as CAIR’s demands to purge training materials for FBI, DoD, and local law enforcement relating to training on domestic infiltration of Islamo-fascist ideology leading to homegrown jihadism. During my recent travels to the Detroit area, I hear over and over from residents that the Dearborn area is referred to by some as Dearbornistan.

Of course any concerns raised are immediately attacked, as is the modus of cultural jihadists. Ibrahim Mogra, of the Muslim Council of Britain, said “It’s irresponsible for a man of his position to make these comments.

He should accept that Britain is a multicultural society in which we are free to follow our religion at the same time as being extremely proud to be British. We wouldn’t allow ‘no-go’ areas to happen. I smell extreme intolerance when people criticize multiculturalism without proper evidence of what has gone wrong.”

Ok Mr. Mogra, you want proper evidence of what has gone wrong? What about British soldier Lee Rigby who was hacked to death in broad daylight? What about the fact that we’ve had two Americans and a British citizen beheaded by a Brit? What about the London bus and tube bombings? What about the fact that more Brits signed up to join ISIS than the British Army Reserves?

You sir, are a danger, a threat and the reason why this poison has infiltrated into not just UK society but ours as well. This is not about criticizing a religion, it is about recognizing an existential threat — and I join with Bishop Nazir-Ali in calling this Al Hijra out. Yours is not multiculturalism, it is isolationism within our culture, a sense of purposeful segregation and “voluntary apartheid.”

And of course there are those who try to blame Christianity and the United States. The Telegraph says, “Inayat Bunglawala, assistant secretary-general of the Muslim Council of Britain, said:

“Bishop Nazir-Ali appears to be exercised by what he perceives as the decline in the influence of Christianity upon this country, but trying to frantically scaremonger about Islam and Muslims seems to us to be a rather unethical way of trying to reverse this.

He talks about the rise of ‘Islamic extremism’ but fails to mention how some of the policies of our government and especially that of the United States in the Middle East over several decades now has clearly contributed to this phenomenon.”

In other words, the beheadings have nothing to do with the Islamic jihadists. The proliferation of Islamism in Western civilization and its recruiting is a result of a decline in Christianity — actually it is about a decline in the Judeo-Christian faith heritage and the assaults by the jihadists accomplices, the secular humanists.

And it all stems from anger because of American Middle East policies — hmm, let me guess –supporting the Jewish State of Israel?

I applaud Bishop Nazir-Ali for speaking up about the abject failure of the experiment of multiculturalism as it applies to Islamo-fascists. I look forward to the day when we have a collection of ministers, pastors, priests and bishops here in America who will make a stand.

As UK Prime Minister David Cameron stated, we must “drain this poison from our society.” That means developing an anti-venom — and not being afraid to do so.

An eight word ISIS strategy

I can sum up the appropriate ISIS strategy in eight words says Colonel Allen West

Click Here to Read the Allen B. West Files

I have to ask you all if you can answer this question: what is a “very significant counter-terrorism operation with many moving parts that will be done over a period of time?”

Well, I served in the U.S. Army for 22 years and commanded at two levels, Company and Battalion, and was a Brigade-level operations officer. I deployed into several combat zones and even did a two-and-a-half year stint training Afghan officers and established a staff officers training course at the Kabul Military Training Center — so I know just a tad about operational planning. I have no idea what Secretary of State John Kerry meant — perhaps actress Tea Leoni could explain since she will be portraying that same position in the CBS series “Madam Secretary.”

As we discussed last Wednesday, Obama’s speech about his ISIS strategy made no sense — sadly ISIS knows that as well. If we were to utilize the model of Afghanistan with a force of some 500 to 600 U.S. Special Operators/CIA Operators with an indigenous force like the combined Kurdish Peshmerga force — meaning Syrian and Iranian Kurds as well — we would have the same calculus as with the Northern Alliance. As I’ve previously mentioned, the Taliban had a force of 70,000 along with 5,000 al-Qaida fighters and were routed out of Afghanistan under the massive pounding of U.S. airpower.

However, Mr. “Military Tactician” Barack Hussein Obama believes he has a better plan of Yemen or Somalia as an example — and has reiterated that he won’t be following the “mistakes” of the previous administration — hmm, I wonder about whom he’s referring?

We cannot “destroy” ISIS because that means every single person would have to be killed – after all, you cannot destroy an ideology. What we can do is defeat ISIS to render it combat-ineffective to pursue any further goals and objectives. As for the ideology, we must “delegitimize” it and that is a dedicated strategic and operational information war – using social media and operational/tactical level psychological operations messaging.

We must understand that destroying Islamo-fascism is a long term endeavor just as we destroyed Nazism, Japanese imperialism, or communism in the fall of the Soviet Union — however, socialism still exists, even here in America.

But our immediate task is to defeat ISIS and I can sum up that strategy in eight words:

We SHOOT, They DIE. We WIN, They LOSE!

Our pathetic president

Our Pathetic President from the Warning Sign files of Alan Caruba at Facts-not-Fantasy

Know the Warning Signs

The first thing you need to keep in mind is that Syria and Iraq are now just lines on a map at this point. They don’t exist as national states because the former is locked in a civil war that will replace its dictator one way or the other and the latter’s alleged government is deeply divided between the usual schism of Sunni and Shiite.

More to the point, Iraq’s government is led by men who are the friends and pawns of Iran. In a recent issue of the Iranian newspaper, Eternad, an Iranian analyst commented on the new Iraqi cabinet noting that its new prime minister “enjoys Iran’s support and spend his formative years in Iran, and continued (the operation of the Islamic al-Dawa party) until the fall of Saddam Hussein’s regime.”

That fall was the result of the war waged against Saddam by President George W. Bush. The Iranian analyst noted that Iraq’s new foreign minister, Dr. Ebrahim Jafari “until recently lived in Tehran in Iran, and enjoyed Iran’s support in spite of his differences with Nouri al-Maleki (the former prime minister). The new Iraqi oil minister, transport minister, and minister of sport and youth were all described as “close to Iran, who either lived in Iran before, fought against the Ba’ath regime with Iran’s help, or constantly traveled to Iran.”

Iraq and Syria came into being when French and British diplomats created them as colonies following the end of World War I, the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and the Treaty of Versailles.

In his September 10th speech, President Obama uttered the word “war” only once and then only to say “We will not be dragged into another ground war in Iraq.”

The speech, like everything he says, was a lie constructed to undue the truth he inadvertently admitted when he revealed “We have no strategy.” If you do not intend to go to war, you do not need a strategy. Instead, you can pretend to the American public that the war will be fought by Iraqis and Syrians.

So far the Syrian civil war has cost that “nation” 200,000 lives and driven a million Syrians out of the country. As for the Iraqis, their military fled in the face of the ISIS forces, leaving behind the weapons we gave them. Between Iraq and Syria, ISIS now controls a landmass larger than the size of Great Britain.

In the course of the speech, Obama said he had dispatched 475 more troops to Iraq. We have an estimated 1,500 or more troops on the ground. That is barely the size of an infantry regiment, composed of two battalions of between 300 and 1,300 troops each.

Significantly, though, Obama opened the speech by reminding Americans that he had “brought home 140,000 American troops from Iraq, and drawing down our forces in Afghanistan, where our combat mission will end later this year.”

President Obama has announced he intends to send up to 3,000 troops to West Africa to help combat Ebola. He can find troops to put in harm’s way in Africa, but not to combat ISIS.

All he has ever wanted to do is to flee from our declared enemies whether they are al Qaeda, the Taliban, ISIS or other Islamic holy warriors. Those numbers signal his failure to follow up our sacrifices in those two nations.

Years after World War II and the Korean War, we still have combat troops in Europe, South Korea, and on bases around the world, but he is pulling out troops in the two nations where our interests are currently threatened. He called the enemy “small groups of killers.” He claimed that “America is safer.”

He appears to think the greatest threat of our time, the holy war being waged by fanatical Muslims, can be won with air strikes and measures that do “not involve American combat troops fighting on foreign soil.”

Fighting on foreign soil is what American combat troops did throughout the last century and into this one. They helped defeat Germany and the Japanese Empire in World War II. They stopped the communist North Korean attack on the South, but had less success in the long Vietnam War. They were successful in the Gulf wars until Obama was elected.

We have a President who has displayed a lack of leadership, a lack of judgment, ignorance of history, a cowardly approach to the threats we face, and who has demonstrated over and over again that he is a liar. His administration is likely to be judged the most corrupt in the history of the nation, indifferent to the Constitution and our laws.

Proclaiming that he “could not be prouder of our men and women in uniform”, this is a President who has engaged in dramatically reducing the size of our military to pre-World War II levels. After a two-star general, Major General Harold J. Green, was killed in Afghanistan in April not one single member of the White House attended his funeral. Obama was playing golf.

America must survive a man who many have come to believe is “the worst President” in our history. An essential stop toward that will be to defeat as many Democratic Party incumbents and candidates for office in the November 4 midterm elections. Americans—patriots—can do no less at this point.

Do not manage evil - destroy it

You don't manage evil - you destroy it from the files of Tea Part Nation founder, Judson Phillips

Looking for the Real Obama?

Someone page that idiot Obama.

He seems to think we can manage the evil that is ISIS. Someone needs to explain to him you do not manage evil, you destroy it.

From the BBC:

The murder of David Haines was an "act of pure evil", David Cameron has said after the release of a video purporting to show the UK hostage's beheading.

The PM vowed to do "everything in our power to hunt down" the killers of the 44-year-old aid worker, from Perth, who was kidnapped last year in Syria.

Islamic State militants have already beheaded two Americans, saying it was in response to US air strikes in Iraq.

The latest video also includes a threat to kill a second British hostage.

Mr Cameron said the murder of an innocent aid worker was "despicable and appalling".

"It is an act of pure evil. My heart goes out to the family of David Haines who have shown extraordinary courage and fortitude throughout this ordeal.

"We will do everything in our power to hunt down these murderers and ensure they face justice, however long it takes," he added.

These are the same people that Obama wants to find a way to help and not go to war with. He tries to claim the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq is not “Islamic.” Then he claims we are not at war with them.

When the Jihadist beheaded James Foley, they titled their video “A message to America.” They have repeatedly said they are at war with us.

Is Obama that much of an idiot or does he just want us to lose this war?

Someone needs to remind the golfer in chief that their is evil in this world and it cannot be managed.

It can only be destroyed.

Outsourcing U.S. National Security

The Obama ISIS plan: Outsourcing the US national security in a chaotic world from the files of Colonel Allen B. West

Visit the Allen West Website

I listened to President Obama delivering his strategy for dealing with ISIS and my summation of what Obama stated is simply: “Outsourcing US National Security in a Chaotic World.”

Lots of you here aren’t career military combat warriors, so let me explain why this speech made no sense. Obama said that we are committed to a counter-terrorism strategy and a systematic campaign — but then Obama stated there will be no U.S. combat mission on the ground — although he is deploying another 475 on top of the almost 1,000 troops there now. Folks, you cannot win a counter-terrorism operation without a combat force – it certainly cannot be won from the air.

And what Obama didn’t explain was who will coordinate close air support for these “coalition” partners on the ground — and of course Obama just recently derided the Free Syrian Army as being “doctors, farmers, and pharmacists.”

Our air strikes — and you must understand 150 strikes over a one month period is not a dedicated air campaign — have to be targeted and that means SOFLAM (Special Operations Forces Laser Acquired Munitions) but if there are no American combat troops, none on the ground, then who is doing this critical mission? You cannot destroy a force from 30,000 feet with air power only.

Obama just had to state that this is not going to be another Iraq or Afghanistan. Well, let’s look at that. In Afghanistan a small American force of 600 Special Operators and CIA operatives along with the Northern Alliance routed a Taliban Army of 70,000 along with another 5,000 Al-Qaida enemy forces. That was a successful model which could be used here, but Obama told us again what he was not willing to do.

Now we are going to put our national security trust in surrogate forces? And we’re supposed to send in more trainers for the Iraq Army? Heck, if Obama had supported the generals on the ground and fought to leave a residual force in Iraq, we would have had the trainers there and wouldn’t be in this position!

So now we have to go back in because of his ideological intransigence and “redo” it all over again and try to rebuild the relationships, which have now been broken — as many Sunni tribesmen have enjoined ISIS.

And to state that ISIS is not Islamic? You have to be kidding me. ISIS stands for, first word, “Islamic.” Obama continues to deny and refuse to define the enemy, and that folks is not helpful.

President Obama stated that America is safer — but not according to recent American polling — and certainly not reflected by the beheadings of two Americans, Foley and Sotloff.

Obama borrowed the “no safe haven” phrase from George W. Bush. And in a comparative analysis of coalition building ability, George W. Bush had 37 countries in 2003, but so far Obama only has 9 — and as we reported, one of them is Turkey and they’re already waffling about not joining unless we restrain support to the Kurdish Peshmerga Army — a core element of this strategy.

I was glad to hear Obama state that he would cut off funding — I hope he goes after Qatar with a strategy we have offered here. As well, since the Saudi King Abdullah is so worried, then have him foot the bill for this operation. But, there was no reference to our domestic jihadist recruitment problem and a porous southern border that must be sealed.

Another key point Obama failed to address, as he talked about his highest priority being our security — will Obama stop the decimation of our military force, which finds itself at horribly low levels? That is why I believe Obama’s strategy is about “outsourcing” our national security as he degrades and destroys our military capability and capacity, which we have addressed here.

This is not American leadership at its best, it is American acquiescence and incompetence. You cannot destroy an enemy or conduct a counter-terrorism strategy by hoping someone else will execute it, or by air — and how are we going to increase air strikes? Will we have a dedicated air campaign with countless sorties a day?

The finish to this speech was utterly weak; full of empty rhetoric and pabulum which means nothing to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi — and it was Russia who sealed the deal to secure Syria’s declared chemical weapons.

Obama asked for our support — he certainly doesn’t secure mine, and he shouldn’t get yours either. Tonight President Barack Hussein Obama proved that polling drives his strategy, because this was supposed to be done midday.

He probably should have, since this was an utter embarrassment and a waste of time. Obama is expanding a combat operation and yet refuses to go to Congress, as George W. Bush did to make a case and secure — by vote — approval. He asked for a blank check for an ambiguous endeavor supporting surrogate forces to handle American business of destroying an enemy who he did not define, which has declared enemy against us.

I fear for my country. We are indeed rudderless amidst a maelstrom.

Those 9|11 terror attack predictions

Those 9/11 Terror Attack Predictions from the files of Alan Caruba at Warning Signs

Know the Warning Signs

As we close in on the 13th anniversary of the infamous 9/11 attack on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, the media is full of predictions about attacks that will occur.

A September 2nd Debka File, an Israeli news agency, reported “Credible information has reached Saudi, British and Australian agencies that two al Qaeda branches—ISIS in Iraq and Syria and AQAP at its base in Yemen—have wrapped up plans to roll out coordinated terrorist spectaculars around the 13th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington.

According to Debka File’s counterterrorism sources, they are preparing to strike simultaneously in the Middle East and a West European city. Next, they will go for U.S. targets in the Middle East and Europe.”

This report and other factors incline me to believe there will not be a major attack somewhere in the U.S. on what is now officially called “Patriot Day.” There could be a lone wolf attack along the lines of Major Hassan’s 2009 “workplace violence” at Fort Hood or the Boston Marathon bombing, but the threats being made by the Islamic State and other elements of al Qaeda, while intended to raise fears in America, are likely to be manifested in the Middle East. American outlets there will be on full alert for sure.

The Islamic State, while now wealthy, well equipped militarily, and attracting every lunatic Islamist and wannabe terrorist, is facing an increasingly united group of Middle East nations that have put old enemies like Iran and Saudi Arabia on the same page together. Iran has dispatched troops to Iraq to support the Kurds. When other Middle Eastern nations finally screw up enough courage to actually do something they will wage a war on ISIS in the interest of self-defense, a powerful motive.

As for al Qaeda’s war on America, it was declared in 1996 by the late, unlamented Osama bin Laden and, other than 9/11, it has done little to follow up on that dramatic sneak attack except for a few failed efforts. The U.S. responded by bombing the hell out of Afghanistan and our troops there have been attacking the Taliban ever since. Obama says he will pull them out in 2015. Given events in Iraq, that is a very bad idea.

Read Caruba's Warning Signs

The Department of Homeland Security has been on alert ever since it was created shortly after 9/11. This is not to say that the U.S. doesn’t need more on-the-ground intelligence penetration of al Qaeda and its affiliates. Indeed, DHS and other government agencies don’t know the whereabouts of several thousand foreign students who are supposed to be at our colleges and universities. They likely do not know who else among those with easy access to the nation is a potential terrorist.

So, yes, that could mean I am very wrong and that 9/11 would be a day for a whole series of attacks for much the same reason our consulate in Libya was attacked that day in 2012. The Benghazi cover-up has been falling apart ever since. The lie that it was caused by a video grows more absurd and obscene very day.

The Israelis have made a far greater and more successful effort than us to infiltrate their enemy’s organizations. Hamas was so rattled by the effectiveness of the Israeli bombing of sites where its rockets were stored and fired from, as well as the killing of a number of its leaders, that they made a public display of executing a number of people they accused of being Israeli spies, whether they were or not. The likelihood was that they were Gazans who had spoken out against Hamas.

After breaking a number of ceasefires, Hamas, running out of any support, accepted the most recent one and Israel thereafter announced the annexation of more West Bank territory for its settlements and, no doubt, for militarization to protect against further attacks. The Israelis know how to deal with their enemies, to prepare, and to take action rather than issue empty threats.

There have even been a number of small events by American Muslims speaking out against barbarity of the Islamic State and the threats leveled at the U.S. That is a hopeful sign, but it needs to increase in numbers and volume. The vast silence of the 1.3 billion Muslims in the world is an offense to humanity.

The Arabs of the Middle East are forever making dramatic threats, but they have a record of doing little. When Saddam Hussein controlled Iraq, he waged a war against Iran that ended inconclusively and then invaded Kuwait and was defeated by a U.S. coalition. When he continued to make threats the U.S. invaded again and deposed him.

What followed was an effort in several Middle Eastern nations to rid themselves of their despots. This occurred in Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt. Only Egypt, after a brief encounter with a Muslim Brotherhood government, rallied again with a military coup that led to the election of a new military leader. The Brotherhood has been banned! Libya is a failed state that has been taken over by Islamic militants. Tunisia has a new constitution as of January and numerous political parties. Its government is battling local militias.

Iraq is in near failure as it tries to unite its Shiite and Sunni factions in a functioning government. Much of the nation has been taken over by the Islamic State in the same fashion as northern Syria whose civil war has killed 190,000 and driven over a million out as refugees in Lebanon, Jordan and anywhere else they could flee. Who has put troops into Iraq to resist the Islamic State? The Iranians!

One threat the President of the United States does not appear to have taken seriously is an Iran with a nuclear weapon and the intercontinental missiles to deliver it. Both Israel and Saudi Arabia are far more aware of the danger this poses and in all likelihood Israel will conclude it must destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities and military installations.

The United States has lost virtually all the influence it once had in the Middle East, even if it came from the barrel of a gun. Our Secretary of State, John Kerry, is held in low regard by both the Israelis and Arabs. The President, Kerry, and Hillary Clinton keep insisting that “climate change” is the greatest threat to mankind.

If President Obama does not engage in the destruction—not “containment”—of the Islamic State, its oil wealth will enable it to become a major threat in the Middle East and beyond, including us. They have demonstrated no restraint on their use of violence and pose a threat comparable or even greater than the Nazi regime of the last century.

Will there be attack or attacks in the U.S. on 9/11?

We all wish we know the answer, but we don’t.
