Before He Extends
Another Olive Branch
July 3, 2009 The Stoning of Soraya M. is a must-see film for those who naively believe that Sharia law is benign. It courageously flouts Political Correctness, while explicitly depicting the macabre realities of the world's most deadly decree. All those involved in this historically accurate and poignantly stirring movie are to be applauded. For it unapologetically exposes the brutally, misogynistic treatment of women in Iran (via Islamic based Sharia law). Whether it be stonings, beatings or hangings--the weaker vessel is deemed mere fecal material in the land of Persia. Perhaps President Obama should view this film before he decides to (yet again) extend another olive branch to the homicidal thugs of Tehran. Let us hope so...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) If It's Barbarous Acts, It Must Be Sharia
July 2, 2009
Well, the Iranian Mullahs weren't kidding around when they said they would not tolerate further protests over the dubious June 12th presidential elections. Because after all...their decrees are holy. And soon after, reports surfaced of the hangings of 6 supporters of defeated presidential candidate Mousavi.
But hey, this is nothing new...when you've got Sharia Law, you've got it all...
Hangings, beheadings, amputations, stonings, crucifixions and so much more. Harsh and brazen acts of inhumanity and merciless judgments can all be found in Sharia.
And no more worries about privacy or civil rights...they are moot...because they don't exist under Sharia.
I know, you've probably heard that these are radical laws created by extremists who have 'hijacked' the religion. Not so...it comes right out the Quran and the Hadiths...the 'holy' books of the "religion of peace."
Here's just a sampling of the fun-filled world of Sharia straight from Muhammed:
I guess Sharia is not as innocuous as you might have been told, huh?
So here's a caveat: It's quite possible that you might be hearing favorable mutterings about Sharia Law, now that Harold Koh is the State Department's legal adviser. Why? Because he's a big supporter...and another useful idiot for the religion of peace.
Shalom through strength...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Stoning Soraya M: The Big, Ugly Truth For The West
July 1, 2009
A mistake many in the West make is they view situations in the Middle East through Western eyes...and this perspective is not only erroneous, but pernicious...
The too oft practice of what is known as Honor Killings, is the misogynist attitude of Muslim men, come to fruition. Honor Killing is the practice of murdering the female member of the family who is perceived to have stained the family honor. It is practiced in many parts of the Muslim world.
Despite the fact that we have had Honor Killings here on our sod, most Americans haven't the foggiest idea what the heinous practice is...and therefore, neither do they care.
But there's good news...in the theaters right now, is a depiction of a true story of an Honor Killing committed in Iran...a cold, slap in the face for those of us who refuse to see the truth.
The film, 'The Stoning of Soraya M.', was 1 hr. 56 minutes that sealed for me, a deep disdain for the religion that dictates and provokes a hatred of women that has become systemic in the Arab world...emanating out of the Quran. This was the true story, about a woman, whose degenerate husband decided he no longer wanted his wife of 20 years (who bore him 4 children) but instead desired a 14 year old girl. Instead of granting her a divorce (where he would be responsible to support her and the children), he developed a machination to accuse her of adultery, when she was helping a recently widowed man and his son. He threatened other men in town to lie as witnesses and they found her guilty...sentencing her to death by stoning.
Just another gift from Sharia Law...because remember...women are considered chattel in Islam...
The stoning scene was one of the most distressing scenes I have ever encountered in a film. To watch men brutalizing a defenseless woman was nefarious. They placed her in a ditch up to her waist, tied her arms behind her (disabling her defense)...then proceeded to bludgeon her slowly and methodically...all the while screaming "Allah Akbar"...god is great. Her father disavowed her and cast the first stones...and her husband cast several stones, which surely contributed to her demise. They even had her two sons hurl stones at their innocent mother. The scene took 20 minutes...and I'm sure took several years from my life in horror.
If we, in the West, are ever to grasp the threat we are under by those following hard after Islam...we all must see this film. Especially women.
I, for one, will never be the same. And will expose this insidious, misogynist religion for what it is: A criminal creed against women.

How Telling
June 30, 2009 Our nation's collective tear (not to mention hyper-deification) over the demise of Michael Jackson is telling. There once was a time when an entertainer--with a demonstrable penchant for young boys--would have been cast asunder in shame and dishonor. But, sadly--as our culture turns increasingly nihilistic--perverts like Jackson are often elevated to the status of 'King of Pop'--a status that is endemic of a nation that now believes talent, fame and fortune trumps the vile act of child molestation. In the final analysis--we should draw comfort that Michael Jackson's world-tour is dead. A tour, no doubt--that would have placed many young boys in harm's way. But in today's changing culture--it is this very analysis that is considered vile. How telling.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Protesters: They Ruined The Legacy Of The Gilded Prattle
June 29, 2009
Have you ever wondered why Obama took so long to use strong language toward Iran during the early days of the protests? I had suggested that the reason was that he was angry at the protesters. Sounds odd, but think about this...
During his campaign, O said he would talk with the former Persian Empire--now turned Terrorist State--without preconditions. Which flew in the face of one of the Bush doctrines of NOT negotiating with terrorists. And after his inauguration, as if in a race against the clock, he immediately wanted to pave the way for talks with the Iranians, by inviting their 'diplomats' to July 4th celebrations (is O even residing on the same planet as us?)--the election took place--and the protests broke out concerning the fraudulent election results. O's response? "Very Concerned"...in other words, cricket chirps. Allies around the world spoke out against the farce of an election and the violence against protesters...O's response? "Appalled and outraged"...in other words, stronger cricket chirps. Innocent Iranians longing for their rights are killed, including the brutal murder of a 16-year-old girl. O's response...um, you know.
So why the measured response? Doesn't the leader of the free world love freedom?
Nope. The leader of the free world only cares about...the leader of the free world! He is quite enamored with his rhetorical elegance, and of course, believes everyone 'blessed' enough to hear him---is enamored as well. And that audience includes world leaders and tyrants like Mahmoud and the Mullahs. But those darn protesters longing for that blasted liberty...they went and got in the way of the flow emanating from his orifice...and ruined the possible legacy of his gilded prattle.
How dare they interfere with such petty ideals as freedom...how egregious!
Reality seems to have hit the emanater of the gilded prattle this week...he finally admitted that "direct dialogue or diplomacy with Iran" would be "affected by the events of the last several weeks."
Well, big, fat, hairy Duh Detective!
But the gilded one still doesn't get it...he then said, "I would suggest that Mr. Ahmadinejad think carefully about the obligations he owes to his own people. And he might want to consider looking at the families of those who've been beaten or shot or detained…That's where I think he and others need to answer their questions."
Um, I believe Mahmoud ORDERED the beatings and shootings, and detentions, so the only reason he would look "at the families of those who've been beaten or shot or detained" would be to eliminate loose ends...it's the way of the thug.
Besides obtaining a good education on the history of the former Persian Empire, O might consider keeping his gilded trap shut, when it feels compelled to slam our standards, and open it fully for freedom...I think we will be much more enamored by that!
Shalom through strength...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Down With The Mullahs...NOW!
June 26, 2009
Iranian women (via a women's advocacy group) can overthrow the Mullahs. Sound wacky? But think about it...
Who are the first in society to be protected when a crisis arises? Women. No one wants to see harm come to a woman. Why? We are considered the weaker sex (physiologically, we are) and being the child-bearers in the social order, we should be protected and honored.
OK...who are oppressed the most in Muslim society? You got it, women. And after the video of 16-year-old Neda Sultani’s shooting death disseminated worldwide, the support mounting against these barbaric ogres is at an all-time-high.
This is the window of opportunity women needed to stand up against this misogynist religion and it's perpetrators. I think groups like NOW (National Organization for Women) should step in and aid the women of Iran by standing up to the Mullahs and demanding freedom for women in the Muslim world.
With their influence...who knows what will happen...??? And think how their membership will grow...and their coffers as well...
I think all true patriots should contact NOW and demand that they stand with the women of Iran for freedom...they support women's rights, don't they? Well there has never been a more opportune time for them to fulfill their mission to their gender. NOW will never have such a golden opportunity dropped in their lap...and it would be a crime against humanity for them not to seize it.
You can reach NOW at their website: http://www.now.org/ or by phone: 202-628-8669.
I say: Down with the Mullahs...NOW!

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) HipHopKom: Ploy To Woo The Rest Of The West?
June 25, 2009
How blatant can the PA get? Pretty blatant...now they've decided to use their youth (well brainwashed since birth) to woo the rest of the West: Our youth.
And how exactly? Why with Hip Hop, homeslice...
A week ago, 50 groups and soloists from the West Bank and Gaza assembled to participate in HipHopKom, the first 'Palestinian hip hop competition, geared toward selecting the best up and coming 'Palestinian' rap group.
Wow, how rad of the radicals...
One rap group, Pikafi (‘Enough is Enough’), uses the West's rap to remonstrate Israel’s treatment of the 'Palestinians'. Are they referring to the way Israel allows 'palestinian' women the right to dress, act, and converse with whomever they please? Or perhaps it's the way Israel tries to protect 'Palestinians' from becoming collateral damage when their 'brethren' use them as human shields?
A member of another group, Da Arabic MC (DAM), stated their purpose, "We’re not trying to be, 'hey we’re hip hop; we're gonna free Palestine; we're gonna bring all the refugees back'. We’re realistic: it's harder than that. So we're just sparking the kids' minds so the youth won't be going to drugs or leaving school or doing bad things that will kill our cause or kill our resistance to kill our fighting and get our liberty at the end."
Oh snap! Really???
Um, yeah right...the 'Palestinians' loathe anything from the West...our music, our respect for women, our straight out values. But, they do love to hate the 'infidels' (that's you and me)...and this time they are taking what's ours and using it against us (can anyone say 9/11?). And there is NO freedom in the PA-controlled areas...everything is under their control.
So is there hope that this new music movement will make a difference with the 'Palestinian' population? Not likely...these teens' minds have been so polluted by paltering poop about Israel, Jews and the West, that nothing but more lies can ever emanate from them.
There's little fear on the part of the PA that there will be a rebellion on the part of the 'Palestinian' youth...because they trained their little cyborgs well...and they will ultimately do as they have been programmed: Kill the Jews (and anyone else that is not hip to their jihad jive)...
I'm not down wit it, r u?
Shalom through strength...

Maybe The Next Time? Yeah, Right!
June 24, 2009
Maybe the next time President Obama decides to proffer another one of his feeble (not to mention longwinded) mea culpas to the Muslim World--he should begin with a salvo across the bow of Islam's nefariously tainted past?
Perhaps Obama can muster enough testosterone to mention the fact that Constantinople (now Istanbul) was once a thriving Christian metropolis until it was savagely seized by Muslim jihadists in 1453. Not only were thousands slaughtered in the name of Allah, but over 60,000 of the city's denizens were sold into slavery.
He can further underscore this irrefutable and disquieting fact by mentioning that one of Christendom's most revered churches, Hagia Sophia (in Istanbul) is still under Muslim control.
But this will never happen as long as Obama the Mediator is feverishly at work drawing a moral equivalence between America and the Islamo-barbarians that lust after its very demise.
Maybe the next time? Yeah, right!

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) IRAN: Should We Give A Hoot?
June 22, 2009
Some simple facts to help you decide...
Q. Who really runs Iran?
A. The Mullahs run the whole shebang. They chose the two candidates. They dictated the election results. They dictate policy. They dictate (and salivate at) the nuclear program.
Q. Will the nuclear program change under a President Mousavi?
A. Short answer: No. Long answer: Nooooooo.
The Mullahs will NEVER give up their nuclear dreams because it is attached to religious dogma. They believe they must create chaos in the world (i.e. nuclear) in order to bring about the end of this world through the arrival of their "12th Imam" or "Mahdi"...and this is an imperative.
Mousavi is a hardliner and is in total favor of destroying Israel with a mushroom cloud. And anyone else who becomes an obstacle to their goal.
Q. Are these protests about the election?
A. No. They are about democracy. The regime is about theocracy.
Q. Will the Mullahs surrender power?
A. NEVER! If the protests continue, they will have a violent, bloody crackdown on the Iranian people utilizing two terrorist groups (of their creation, being a terrorist State): The Iranian Republican Guard and Hezbollah.
Q. Why should America care about this?
A. Iran is marching toward nuclear weaponization. When the dust settles from these protests, the question will still remain: Will we allow Iran to go nuclear?
Additionally, We should care about this because it is this regime that was responsible for the deaths of 241 of our brave Marines as they slept, (in Beirut as peacekeepers in 1983). Not to mention Khobar Towers, the American Embassy in Beirut, and the bombing of a Jewish Center in Buenos Aires, to name a few.
Our (or should I say O's) reluctance to speak out in support of the protesters is a betrayal of our core values as a democracy.
O is more concerned about his legacy, than he is with liberty for all. He wants to appear the rhetorical magician...wooing a tyrannical regime with his golden tongue (when in reality, he has that tongue solidly fixed upon their draconian boots).
A sad day for the lovers of liberty...should we give hoot? You do the math...
Shalom through strength...

Triumph In Iran--Is Victory Over O
June 22, 2009 If the forces of democracy triumph in Iran--it will not only be a victory over the purveyors of autocracy, tyranny and subjugation--but also over the leader of the free world, Barack H. Obama. Lest we forget, President Obama's Cairo speech was intended to befriend the bloodthirsty, anti-Semitic mongrels of Tehran, not those Iranians we now see risking life and limb in the quest for liberty. Obama's Mea Culpa diplomacy--while a booming endorsement of the status quo in the Islamic Republic--was a diplomatic dagger in the back of all young Persians longing to taste freedom's glory. Truth be told, the catalyst for the historic events unfolding on the streets of Tehran is the Iraq War. The battle in Mesopotamia has brought freedom to millions of Iran's neighbors who once labored under the draconian boot of despotism. (A war, mind you--that Obama fiercely opposed.) Triumph in Iran--is victory over O.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) The IAEA: No Duh Detective
June 19, 2009
So, the head of the geniuses at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) have just declared what Israel (and conservatives) have been warning for quite some time: He has a "gut feeling" that Iran is trying to build a nuclear weapon.
No duh detective...
In a BBC interview, IAEA chief Mohamed El Baradei said, "It is my gut feeling that Iran would like to have the technology to enable it to have nuclear weapons. They want to send a message to their neighbors, to the rest of the world, 'Don't mess with us.'"
His "gut feeling?" With all due respect, did this putz just figure out how to pull his head out of his tailpipe? Iran's leader has spewed his plans, written his plans and literally verbally defecated his plans to develop a nuclear weapon to 'wipe Israel off the map'...you know, just create the usual world chaos that will usher in his 12th Imam or Mahdi....and in the process, rid the Muslim world of their greatest enemies: Jews first, then Christians and the rest of the infidels.
El Baradei is just as clueless as our 'Dear Leader'...they are so self-serving that they are oblivious to the facts on the ground...and that's way too perilous for those of us who reside under their headship.
The Mousavi brouhaha is simply a distraction from a program that will not be altered under a different president. The mad mullahs will keep 'cultivating' their components until they can plant 'mushrooms' on all the infidel's land.
You don't have to be a genius from the IAEA to get this...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Jimmy Dhimmi: How Stupid Can An Infidel Be
June 18, 2009
"They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades (change to other religions), seize them and kill them wherever ye find them; and (in any case) take no friends or helpers from their ranks." --Quran-4:89
The Quran is replete with verses similar to the one above. They are not clandestine, but rather available to anyone who desires to see them. But it appears that former (thank God) President Jimmy Dhimmi Carter is either ignorant of the Quran...or just plain ignorant.
I must say that I find it incredible that Carter was a graduate of Annapolis...but he is proof that red herrings pop up everywhere (even if they have a hard, brown bumpy shell).
These verses are not only in the Quran, but are primary sources for terror groups such as Hamas (the duly elected majority party of the PA)...as the foundation upon which to carry out their murderous machinations.
But does Carter get it? Nah...he continues, as you read this, on his hug-a-thug campaign to give legitimacy to Hamas and end a global boycott of the terror group.
Gee, what a guy...
But on this current journey, something 'horrible' happened...it appears some roadside bombs were planted near a crossing between Israel and Gaza on a route Carter's caravan took to meet with the terror group's leaders.
They did happen to miss their target, though (and believe me, they wouldn't have if Carter wasn't such a useful idiot). But you'd never guess what happened next...Hamas jumped in like Mighty Mouse to say, "Here I am to save the day!"
Wow, what valiant champions those bloodthirsty terrorists are...
Um...does anybody besides me think this was contrived, by the PA, for media consumption?
Even a cursory look at the Quran and the Hamas Charter would give an imbecile a decent understanding of the mindset of these killers. And the realization that they are willing to die for their atrocious archetype.
But does Jimmy Dhimmi get it? Of course not. He's on a mission...a mission from Allah to save as many terrorists the dried up roasted nut can...before he goes the way of all appeasers: Dead with egg on his face...but unfortunately, he'll take many innocents with him.
How stupid can an infidel be? Just watch Jimmy...he's the epitome.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Netanyahu To The World: "The Simple Truth"
June 16, 2009
Jews,
Evangelical Christians and Zionists of every stripe were surely not
disappointed this past Sunday by what they heard from Israeli PM Binyamin
'BiBi' Netanyahu.
Here are the highlights of BiBi's speech...
Israel's olive branch, yet again: "I turn to you, our Palestinian neighbors...let us start negotiations for peace immediately. I say to you – we want to live with you in peace and good neighborly relations. I want our children will dream of a better future and realize it. That we will put our energy into plowshares and pruning scissors, not swords... I do not want war. No one in Israel wants war. Let us join hands and work at peace. There is no end to the flourishing we can bring to our two nations."
The crux of the matter: "The simple truth is that the root of the conflict is the refusal to accept the Jewish people’s right to exist in its historic homeland. Whoever thinks that the enmity to Israel is the result of our occupying Judea and Samaria is confusing cause and effect...We vacated the Gaza Strip to the last centimeter and received a rain of missiles on our communities and our children. Hamas and Hizbullah keep saying that their aim is to free Akko, Beersheva and Haifa. Even the moderate Palestinians, even now, are unwilling to say the simplest thing: Israel is the state of the Jewish People and it will stay that way.”
The demand to settle Palestinian refugees inside Israel is incompatible with the continued existence of Israel as a Jewish state...It is possible to solve this problem outside the borders of Israel. There is wide national agreement about this among us...Judea and Samaria are not a foreign country for us. This is the land of our forefathers. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The right of the Jewish people over our country does not come from the suffering we have been through. Some say if it weren’t for the Holocaust there would be no State if Israel. But I say that if Israel had been established in time there would not have been a Holocaust...Our right to establish our country here stems from one fact: Israel is the homeland of the Jewish people and it is here that our identity was forged."
Israel's vision for a two-state solution: "In our vision we see two states side by side, each with its own flag and anthem. We do not want Kassams on Petach Tikva or Grads on Tel Aviv. We want peace. We must make sure that the Palestinians cannot create an army. We cannot be expected to agree to a Palestinian state without receiving guarantees that it will be demilitarized. We ask the international community for an express commitment that the Palestinian state’s area will be demilitarized with effective measures – not like the ones in Gaza."
In conclusion: "Arabs must choose between the way of peace and the way of Hamas...The Palestinian Authority must create law and order in the Gaza Strip and demilitarize Hamas. Israel will not negotiate with terrorists who wish to annihilate us. Hamas will not even let Red Cross representatives visit a soldier who is being held captive in Gaza – Gilad Shalit...I call upon Arab leaders and Palestinian leaders: Let's go in the path of Menachem Begin and Anwar Sadat, Yitzhak Rabin and King Hussein. Let's go in the path of Prophet Isaiah, who spoke thousands of years ago, they shall beat their swords into plowshares and know war no more. Let us know war no more. Let us know peace."
For the doubters of BiBi's ability not to kowtow to political expediency...I believe he has dispelled your concerns. BiBi gets it...all will be possible when the Arabs admit that the Jewish State, and the Jewish people, have a right to exist...and in their homeland. Until this happens, peace in any form, will be ephemeral.
Most apropos here is Golda Meir's prescient quote: "We will have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us."
Shalom through strength...

Auto-crat
June 15, 2009 Obama's declaration (that he does not want to run the auto industry) is exceedingly disingenuous. Why? Because as Auto-crat, he can ram his environmental policy down our collective throat. He will, by way of verbal fiat--force GM to make small vehicles (including hybrids) that are so-called environmentally friendly. Thus, not only appeasing the enviro-psychopaths in his own party, but also Europe's intelligentsia (which is currently fixated on reducing cow flatulence). Sadly, this tact will destroy what is left of the industry. Why? Because the facts (even during economic consternation) clearly indicate that Americans are buying far more trucks and SUV's than matchboxes. But, hey--when did Obama ever let the facts trump ego?

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Carter: Stupid Is As Stupid Does, And Keeps On Doing
June 12, 2009
Yes it's former (thank God) US President Jimmy 'Dhimmi' Carter busy sticking his goober where it doesn't belong: Anywhere, generally...the Middle East, specifically.
From the time our embassy was assailed and hostages were taken due to the correct perception by Islamists of then President Carter as a paper tiger, to his now uninvited meddling in the 'peace' process, Carter is the fungal rash that annoys the hell out of you and the more you attempt to rid yourself of it, the more it returns.
Carter stated in the past that the reason Hamas was victorious was because it was "shrewd in selecting candidates." I guess bribing the people with supplies and services had nothing to do with it. Why you're right, Mr. Carter, the people must have been dazzled by one of those brilliant, machine gun-totting, Qassam lobbing, Jew-hating, misogynists. Wouldn't you?
His concern has not been for the innocent Israelis that are the target of Hamas and Fatah (the duly elected PA government)...no, he is concerned with the reconciliation of Hamas & Fatah (two terrorist groups)..."All efforts of the international community should be to reconcile the two, but there's no effort from the outside to bring the two together."
What a magnanimous machination, sir.
Now again, this over-roasted nut is playing the terrorist uniter in the Holy Land...he claims Mideast peace is not possible without Hamas. Well I guess he's correct...someone has to hold the rocket launcher while the other discharges the rocket.
It's bad enough that we have to endure that Huckleberry Hound kisser in the list of US presidents, but must we continue to listen to his perniciously moronic rhetoric until we want to toss our cookies?
I think Carter is either evil or incredibly stupid. Since I can't see his heart, I will leave God to judge his motives and go with incredibly stupid.
In the words of Forrest Gump, "Stupid is as stupid does"...but in this case...it just keeps on doing.
Shalom through strength...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Do We Really Want A Hand In This Genocide?
June 11, 2009
Israeli PM Bibi Netanyahu will be giving a major speech on Mideast Peace on Sunday. It is expected that he will offer the 'Palestinians' a state of their own with interim borders. But, of course, the IDF will retain freedom of operation in their state, to prevent further terrorist attacks, because anything less would not be adequate for national security. And with the PA's record on negotiations...none of it will fly...
OK...somebody get me off this ride, I'm starting to get sick...
No one can convince me that Bibi is not aware of the political drill here. Israel offers everything but the kitchen sink, the 'Palestinians' say NO and continue their terror attacks on innocent Israelis...the world condemns Israel...and we start ALL OVER AGAIN...
Is it me, or are you getting a little lightheaded?
Look, Israel knows what they must do, as distasteful as it may be to elitist world leaders. They must do all that is within their power to ensure minimal harm to their citizens...because this is for the ultimate survival of the Jewish State...which was intended to be the safest place on earth for Jews, post WWII....yet it has never come to fruition...
Unfortunately, for Bibi, our President is only adding speed to this carnival ride. And his haste is toxic for Israel and its continued existence. Pressuring the Jewish State to surrender their land and lives like no other leader in our nation's history, this treacherous idiocy will end in the Arab world's definitive desire: No more Jews.
Do we really want a hand in this genocide of the Jewish people? The empirical evidence for those who have persecuted the Jews is not promising. Somebody might want to notify Obama...

Shocking, Indeed
June 10, 2009 At all times, national security should trump political expedience. Unfortunately, President Obama doesn't subscribe to this venerated standard. Obama's pedantic refusal to release classified documents--which (according to former Vice President Dick Cheney) would explicitly show that enhanced interrogations netted the CIA vital, life saving intelligence--is drenched in self-interest. If O released the documents, he would then be forced to admit that waterboarding is a valuable tool in the War on Terror. And such a declaration, most certainly--would eviscerate his Hope and Change foreign policy approach that has mesmerized the dupes of the world. It is a shocking day in America when political expedience trumps our very survival. Shocking, indeed.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) The Lebanese Have The Fire Of Liberty In Their Bellies
June 9, 2009
They've had enough. That's what the pro-Western majority declared through the election process on Sunday in Lebanon. The March 14 Coalition of Christians and Sunni Muslims won at least 70 seats in the country's 128-member parliament. So, Iran, via Hezbollah, lost...
Awww...back go the party hats...
This is a setback for a salivating Iran...who cannot wait to sink its nuclear teeth into tiny Israel. And Hezbollah's loss has removed the possibility for a prime location to target their prey.
And here's a bulletin...Hezbollah announced it will not lay down its arms despite the loss....WOW, really? Well I for one am shocked...
These virulent thugs who, among their dastardly deeds, killed 241 US Marines (in Beirut as peacekeepers in 1983) as they slept. Forget an election loss, they should be eternally grateful they still have their wazoo attached.
The lovers of liberty still reside in Lebanon. They had, for years, sadly attempted to appease Hezbollah and their ilk...which is what gave them the chaos, death and destruction they experienced from the time of the Lebanese Civil War with the PLO through to Hezbollah's briefly seizing control of downtown Beirut in an attempt to boost their political power in 2008.
I believe the Lebanese people finally got it: Capitulation leads to collapse...and they have shown Ahmadinejad, Nasrallah and their peeps...this hood ain't as good as it used to be.
Let's hope the fire in Lebanon's belly will rise to the surface and scorch Hezbollah's tukis all the way back to Damascus.
Shalom through strength...

Appeasement: The Opiate Of The Gutless
June 8, 2009 So, what is Barack H. Obama's strategy concerning Iran? Total, unadulterated appeasement. During his speech in Cairo last week, Obama uttered the following pacification: "No single nation should pick and choose which nations hold nuclear weapons." Putting aside the egregious implications of moral equivalence--this statement explicitly demonstrates that Obama is mentally yielding to the fact that the Islamic Republic will go nuclear. Our Commander in Chief (manifestly) adheres to the liberal worldview that containment is far superior to confrontation. This worldview, particularly when it comes to Islamo-thuggery--has been a demonstrable failure. Our attempts to contain bin Ladenism in the 90's (vs. confronting it) caused the deaths of over 3,000 Americans. But this time the weapon of choice won't be a commercial aircraft--but rather a nuclear device capable of untold death and destruction. Scary how appeasement continues to be the opiate of the gutless.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Iran: Celebrating Infidel-Freedom?
June 5, 2009
America will soon be preparing to celebrate its greatest gift as a nation--the freedom of our republic, given to us by God and established by our Founding Fathers upon Judeo-Christian principles. Some will celebrate with BBQs, some with parades, picnics and fireworks. But an invitation has gone out to a lot that I believe would much rather be: The uninvited...
As stated by the New York Times Mark Landler, “Last Friday, the State Department sent a cable to its embassies and consulates around the world notifying them that 'they may invite representatives from the government of Iran' to their Independence Day celebrations..."
Hmm...let's ponder this for a moment...
We, an independent (for now), free society, which respects the rights of the individual...and we have founding documents which ensure the following:
And, for its citizens, Iran ensures...none of the above.
They are a theocracy ruled by draconian, maniacal Mullahs who loathe anything that is in opposition to Muhammad's commands. They especially despise 'infidels' (Jews and Christians first, then all other unbelievers).
So my question is...what would make the POTUS think Iran's 'diplomats' would like to join in our infidel, freedom-fest?
See, now this is where I really have to insist that liberalism causes psychosis in its adherents. (Psychosis [aka psychotic break], in short, is defined as a symptom of mental illness typically characterized by a distorted or nonexistent sense of objective reality.)
There is no rhyme or reason to O's conclusion that Iran's leadership would be interested in joining those they consider to be inferior to them and those they see as "apes" (Jews) and "pigs and dogs" (Christians).
Did O think Ahmadinejad wanted to share a dog-in-a-blanket with the dogs on a blanket?
This kind of reasoning sounds less like it's manufactured by his wit and more like it's a product of his wazoo...
The last thing a Muslim regime wants from its mortal enemy is an invitation to celebrate everything they loathe and oppose.
The POTUS and his ilk need to remove the western thinking cap when dealing with Muslim, terrorist-supporting, regimes...and try viewing the situation through the eyes of the hateful, bloodthirsty Islamists who vow with every fiber of their being...to kill the infidel.
And if O did, there would be a few less party hats necessary for the 4th. Our only 'loss' is, I understand: Iran is developing its own fissionable 'fireworks'...perhaps they'll save them for a future date.
Should be a blast...
Shalom through strength...

A Mere Colony In A Global Islamic Kingdom
June 4, 2009 In order for the free world to remain free, its leader, Barack H. Obama--must discard pantywaist diplomacy. For it is this type of diplomacy that explicitly emboldens the vampires of Islamo--bloodlust. O's sugarcoated speechifying has done nothing to dissuade the Tyrants of Tehran, the Dregs of Damascus (and their rabid lapdogs) from their demonic quest of a global Islamic hegemony. And proof of this can be witnessed by Iran's stridently bold and unfettered march towards nuclear capability. The more apologies the President proffers, the more bellicose and acerbic Ahmadinejad becomes. And why not--history dictates that the soft and fuzzy approach is viewed as a sign of profound weakness in the Muslim World. If President Obama continues down this sordid path--America will be reduced to a mere colony in a global Islamic Kingdom.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Demanding Gets You Nowhere
June 3, 2009
It's finally happened. The attitude of entitlement has breached our borders and is now forcing itself up on our only friend in the Middle East...
President Obama recently said Israel MUST cease the expansion of its West Bank (Judea-Samaria) settlements as part of a wider agreement toward Middle East peace. The must 'must' is an imperative...a demand. Merriam-Webster defines 'demand' as a: asking especially with authority b: something claimed as due.
Interesting...so O 'demands' that a sovereign nation, Israel--stop building on its own land.
Okee Dokee, Dear Leader!
But wait...O is not Israel's leader, unfortunately...he's ours! So why is he demanding that another country obey his commands? Delusional? Megalomaniacal? Perhaps...but it comes out of a liberal ideology...a sense of entitlement...and a life-long, careful pro-Arab, anti-Semitic indoctrination from various life choices (i.e. his pastor, his church, his friends, his education, his role models, etc.).
O also promised his real friends, the PA, Jerusalem as the capital of a 'Palestinian' State.
So is BiBi and company shaking in their boots? Well, today the Interior Ministry’s Jerusalem office approved a plan to build a new Jewish hotel in East Jerusalem.
Looks like demanding gets you nowhere, O...
This iron-fisted diplomacy used toward our friends, while we blow kisses to those who desire to blow us up, is beyond specious...it borders on unhinged psychosis.
O needs to come to a screeching halt with his abominable behavior toward our comrades in the war on terror. Because the side he's wooing, will only make kissy face with a bunch of 'infidels'...if their sword first kisses our throats.
Try to halt that with a demand...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Training Our Friends' Enemies
June 2, 2009
I have a question for you...Honestly...how stupid are we? What substance from an alternate universe must slam into the grey matter of our collective leaders' minds in order for them to understand what the deal is in the Holy Land?
Apparently nothing has done the job, as of yet...
Why would I ask such a question?
Here's the whole ball of wax...you judge for yourself...
The PA (Palestinian Authority) is the ruling government in the 'Palestinian' areas in Israel. They are comprised of the majority parties of Hamas (on the US Terror List) and Fatah (also on the US Terror List). They have been duly elected by the 'Palestinian' people. Both terror groups have, as their common goal, the destruction of the Jewish State (and consequently, the Jewish People). Here's the kicker...
Our government is having our US troops TRAIN the PA military forces...which will be used to kill members of the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) and innocent Israeli citizens (the prime targets of the PA forces).
And all with YOUR tax dollars!!! Bet you didn't realize your money could do so much...harm, that is.
And this ain't hearsay...Lt. Gen. Keith Dayton, designated by the United States to be a “security coordinator,” has been appointed to train 1,500 'Palestinian' military troops. They'll be available for “immediate deployment” in the area linking Jenin and Nablus, which is less than an hour from Israel’s inhabited coastal area.
Oops...I think Israel missed catching that kiss...
Now remember...our government believes Fatah is a 'moderate' terror group. We have already sworn we would not give the PA any US funds if Hamas is a ruling member of the PA...and the training of the military was on the agreement that Fatah would not create a coalition rule with Hamas. Well...all signals show the PA is taking every opportunity to include and assimilate Hamas into its military forces for joint operations against Israel.
Now, I'm flabbergasted and appalled...aren't you?
Well if, as Forrest Gump puts it, "Stupid is as stupid does" then we are glaring IDIOTS!
The 'Palestinians' have never, EVER kept one agreement they have made (lying is permitted if it is done to infidels [that's us] for the sake of Allah [Taqiyyah]). They have promised innumerable times to cease the violence toward innocent Israeli citizens and have never done so. And we now know that they are going back on their promise not to join forces with Hamas to govern the 'Palestinian' occupied areas...so what do we do?
Why train their terrorist thugs to kill our friends, that's what.
Nice work, O, if you missed projectile vomiting on BiBi's shoes while he was in the States...you just did...
The majority of the American people love the State of Israel. They are our friends and a fellow democracy. They have helped us incalculable times with Intel to keep our country secure. And this backstabbing behavior, on the part of this administration, is not the manner in which the citizenry of this country desires to show our kinship with our faithful ally.
O, and his ilk, want a Jew-free Israel...this is clear by his insistence that no more Jewish settlements be built in Judea-Samaria (and he reinforced this by NOT planning to visit Israel on his Middle East trip this week). But this operation is barbaric. Training the enemies of our friends, makes us our friends' enemy.
And we're not ready for this kind of 'change'...

G-d Save Us
June 1, 2009 That Islam is a religion of "peace and tolerance" has literally become axiomatic. It is sermonized from the White House to the ivory towers of academia and beyond. But--to believe such tripe--one has to be in serious denial of the facts. One common thread of truculence that runs through every jihadist is anti-Semitism. If we are to believe said axiom--than such stinging hatred of Jews must come from outside the realms of Islamic dogma and doctrine? The answer to this question can be served-up in one word: No. The Koran (which was considered, by Hitler--to be a treasure trove of anti-Semitic prose) contains virulent, Jew-hating writings that are explicitly debasing. The most infamous is Sura 5:59-60 which refers to Jews as "apes" and "swine." Moreover--this is the most oft-recited passage by terrorists prior to carrying out martyrdom operations against innocent Jews the world over. To believe that Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance is to deny the bloody and macabre facts. And it may be this very denial that precipitates the final days of Western Civilization. G-d save us.

Remember Chamberlain!
May 29. 2009 It seems that President Obama's foreign policy approach "wax apologetic and carry a big olive branch" has done nothing to pacify the maniacal misfits that litter the globe. Whether it be Kim Jong-Il (detonating yet another a nuclear device) or Muhmoud Ahmadinejad (deploying naval warships to international waters)--these murderous loons are growing more bellicose and warlike with each and every mea culpa that passes through O's lips. Time is of the essence--and our Commander-in-Chief must come to the stark realization that appeasement (remember Neville Chamberlain) equals death and destruction. Truth is--if America (and for that matter Western Civilization) is going to survive--the maturation of Barack H. Obama is a moral imperative. But--thus far--the man-child from Hawaii has yet to flash even a scintilla of adulthood. Remember Chamberlain!

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Livni: Putting Israel In The Shadow Of Death
May 28, 2009
Only 7 months after Tzipi Livni failed to form her own coalition government, she's putting together an official “opposition government” or a "shadow cabinet." No biggie, you say? After all, there should be firm alternatives to the policies of PM Netanyahu, right?
Wrong...
This is a critical time for the survival of the Jewish State. If there was ever a time for solidarity, it's now...
Why? What's the big whoop? Playing in the shadows with a pretend (and contentious) government sends the most perilous message to the enemy: We're divided, so come conquer us.
And they will...
Olmert was the first one to give a paper tiger facade to the Arab world by humiliating the second most powerful military in the world: The IDF (the US being the first, of course). In simple terms: If you shrink, don't blink, or you will surely sink. As the enemy is always looking for the chinks in your armor in order to compromise and conquer...why present it to them on a silver platter?
Is Livni aware of this? You bet...this lady is no slouch...she entered the IDF in 1976 and served until 1979. She earned the rank of lieutenant and served as an instructor at the officers’ training school. And she was a Paris agent for Mossad (Israel’s overseas intelligence agency) in the early 80s when it conducted a series of missions to kill 'Palestinian' terrorists in European capital cities (ah, the good old days).
Honestly, I would have more respect for her if she would do what she used to: Put country before political expediency.
But that's not the character trait that's being revealed at this time...
This 'shadow government' idiocy is looking less like solid, reasonable opposition, and more like sour grapes. Israel's survival is of greater importance than who is 'queen for a day'. If Livni sincerely cares about her nation (and I believe, in her heart of hearts, she does), then stop the feckless, backstabbing contention and stand with BiBi...because if you don't...the land, upon which you and your countrymen finally stand, will be shared with the fishies in the Mediterranean Sea...
Shalom through strength...

Terrorist Recruiting Tool?
May 27, 2009 Barack H. Obama's premise that Guantanamo has been used as a terrorist recruiting tool is laughable. The idea is fully spurious on many levels, but the most obvious is that on 9/11 Club Gitmo did not exist. Furthermore, this belief was fashioned in the 'America is to Blame' mosh-pit of radical liberalism which has produced such loons as Nancy Pelosi, Ted Kennedy and Ron Kuby. Enough said? The fact is the greatest terrorist recruiting tool is the Koran, which explicitly demands either conversion, subjugation or death of all non-Muslims. In point, the Koran is considered (by most Muslim scholars and schools of Islamic jurisprudence) as the quintessential blueprint for the total destruction of Western Civilization. But don't expect Obama to ever acknowledge this fact. Why? Because he is much too comfortable blaming (you guessed it) America.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) It's BiBi Or Bust!
May 26, 2009
It is unequivocal by now that Obama has no intentions of addressing the problem and threat Iran poses. He neither has the spine nor the testicular fortitude to make the hard decisions that must be made in order to protect the citizenry of America...or for that matter, freedom-loving people globally.
So what is left for free people to do when faced with such dire prospects as Iran has presented to the world, on numerous occasions? There is only one solution...
Obama has clearly relinquished his position as leader of the free world by refusing to deal with Iran's threats. So it is now left to PM Benjamin 'BiBi' Netanyahu to do what must be done in order to foil Iran's plans and send an unambiguous message to terrorists and terrorist states that free people will not allow tyrants, thugs, or mullahs to take away the liberty that God has given to all men.
Will BiBi perform the actions necessary to hinder, or at least postpone the mad mullah's machination?
Well, between O and BiBi...there is no contest...
BiBi was born in Tel Aviv, raised in Jerusalem, spent his adolescent years in the US, but returned to Israel to fulfill his military obligations. Netanyahu volunteered for an elite commando unit of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and participated in several daring operations, which included the Beirut Airport Operation during the War of Attrition and the release of hostages from a hijacked Sabena Airlines aircraft at Ben-Gurion Airport, an operation in which he was wounded. He was discharged from the IDF after 6 years, following the Yom Kippur War, with the rank of captain.
Obama was born...well, it's reported he was born in Hawaii, but no credible evidence has yet surfaced to confirm this fact. He was raised in Hawaii and Jakarta, Indonesia by his mother and stepfather. He later attended Columbia University and Harvard University graduating with degrees. He chose not to serve his country in the Armed Forces. But instead chose to be a community organizer (a teacher with ACORN) and to pursue a political career.
BiBi, by his choices, has proven that he will put his own life on hold for the sake of his country and countrymen. Obama, in contrast, chose to pursue self-interest over self-sacrifice.
So, will BiBi make the unpopular yet crucial decision to attack Iran's nuclear facilities?
Well, just in case the Arab world, and their liberal ilk, think Israel is down for the count...I believe the Jewish people (by the grace of the G-d of Israel) will "rise from the ashes of the phoenix"...and rock your world...while preserving ours.
Shalom through strength...

Get Real--Very Real
May 22, 2009 With Pakistan experiencing an Islamo-meltdown, President Obama better realize that charisma--accompanied by smooth, rhetorical embellishments (verbal bullsh**)--isn't going to secure the Islamic nation's nuclear weapons. The trepidation concerning Pakistan's nuclear cache is that it might end up in the sinister hands of the Taliban or al Qaeda. And with these Islamic elements on the march, and moving towards Islamabad--the fear is palpable. If these weapons are to be secured, Obama must construct a viable plan utilizing US Special OPS. He must eschew any and all attempts to use Pakistani intelligence (ISI)--which has been infiltrated by Islamofascists with a deep antipathy for the West. Pakistan presents a huge (not to mention dangerous) challenge to Obama. And, in order to meet that challenge--he will have to set aside his superficial and child-like oratory and get real--very real.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Genocide Of The Jews...With Our Help
May 21, 2009
With all the offers Israel has made over the years, and the PA has rejected...the question arises: What exactly is it that the 'Palestinians' and the Arab world wants?
It's certainly not land, they've been offered everything but the kitchen sink and turned it down. It's not money...billions have passed through their corrupt little digits...most squandered and much used to attack innocent Jews.
So what do they want?
A careful look at their requests can prove very revealing...
-Who lives in the settlements? The Jewish people. -What is attacked? The settlements. -What does the PA always request be removed or prevent the building of? The settlements. -What happens when Jews accidentally enter the 'Palestinian' areas? They are killed in cold blood.
So...in essence, they want a Jew-free Gaza, West Bank...and if possible...a Jew-free Israel (or as they call it 'Palestine')! It's a silent genocide...
I just wonder what the response would be if the Israelis demanded an Arab-free Jerusalem? The screams of hatred spewed toward the Jews would be heard globally. But what of these Jew-free zones demanded by the PA, the Arab world and the West? No one seems to have a problem with them. Obama (the first pro-Arab president) tows the genocidal line, insisting upon the cessation of settlements. Even the Israeli government has bought into this furtive genocide of its people by agreeing to remove settlements.
We can no longer call ourselves civil, compassionate or humane if we do not put an end to this second, yet clandestine attempt at the elimination of the Jewish people.
The Israelis have always desired shalom...but not the kind of peace that Hitler wanted...or the PA: The last breath of every Jew on earth.
Think about it...
Shalom through strength...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) BiBi: Forget Talks, You're Flying Solo
May 20, 2009
Talk is cheap...an oft used cliché. But it was never truer than at the much anticipated meeting between Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin "BiBi" Netanyahu...
O, as usual, schmaltzing it up in his pedantic style (I just loathe his verbal cadence...it's so calculated and condescending)...empty rhetoric that adds nothing to the discourse. And BiBi, was way too conciliatory...I kept thinking "BiBi, get your tongue off his boots!"
So what came out of these 'talks'? Bupkis, nada, rien, nothing!
O, who thinks all things became new when he entered the White House, blathered on about a focus on efforts to create a Palestinian state in Judea, Samaria and Jerusalem. But without an agreement that the PA would accept Israel's right to exist, this will never happen. Netanyahu hoped to gain Obama's support for stalwart action on Iran...but it ain't happening. O said he would give Iran no deadline, seek talks with the former Persian Empire and, if Iran didn't respond to diplomacy, he would not take 'sanctions' off the table?
Say what? Sanctions? Been there, done that...empirical evidence proves that a slap on the wrist of sanctions has never worked. Walking softly will do nothing...but getting whacked with a big stick gets results every time...
Will the US help logistically support the Jewish State?
Well, here is yet another example that talk is cheap...O may have gone out of his way to affirm the U.S.-Israel alliance at the meeting...but his actions prior to the meeting speak volumes to the contrary...
According to Anne Bayefsky, of Eye On The UN, Obama has shown his true colors by his approval of the following action:
- Agreeing with this statement from the UN Security Council: “The Security Council supports the proposal of the Russian Federation to convene, in consultation with the Quartet and the parties, an international conference on the Middle East peace process in Moscow in 2009.”
- And that statement also makes commendatory indications to the 2002 Arab “Peace” Initiative. A Saudi proposal to force Israel to withdraw to vulnerable borders prior to what most Arab countries still deem to be a final shove down the road...to Israel's ultimate ruin.
Now the question is: Does Israel have our pragmatic support, as in all times past? Tragically I believe the answer is unequivocally NO.
The US, led by the pro-Arab Obama administration (hey, has the State Dept. now taken up residency in the Oval Office?), will not help Israel by confronting Iran, or supplying Israel with strategic support in the certain event that Israel must confront Iran militarily. O's words are cheap talk, his actions show a contemptible walk...and Israel will inevitably have to fly solo.
As in myriad times past...Israel will be left to themselves...and the G-d Who protects them.
Godspeed, BiBi!

Hawkishness Over Expediency
May 19, 2009 Clearly, the key question concerning American--Israeli relations is: Will BiBi Netanyahu contravene Barack H. Obama's olive branch diplomacy and attack the Islamic Republic of Iran? The answer to this question is deeply rooted in the inner most recesses of Netanyahu's psyche. If he (as we are led to believe) is implacably hawkish--and bent on the survival-at-any-cost theory--then Tehran's nuclear ambitions are toast. But if the Jewish leader (who, at times--has displayed disquieting signs of political expediency) kowtows to Obama--Israel will be violently devoured in a mushroom cloud. When the dust finally settles on this tumultuous period of history--let us hope that hawkishness won out over political expediency. G-d bless the Jewish State.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Pope: Visiting Danger On Future Generations
May 18, 2009
Pope Benedict XVI is visiting Israel. And hopes are that he will bring the peace that Christianity offers...the kind that does not compromise truth. Well, if you're hoping for that, your hopes will be dashed...
The Pope called on "all those responsible to explore every possible avenue in the search for a just resolution of the outstanding difficulties, so that both peoples may live in peace in a homeland of their own within secure and internationally recognized borders."
I have to ask, has the Pope been that sheltered that he is unaware of the ongoing terror attacks that Israel has had to endure for years? From that statement, one would assume that he is unaware of who the historical owners of the land are (Jews), and oblivious to the terror attacks perpetrated upon innocent Jews daily by the PA and their ilk. But the Pope is a very learned and intelligent man.
So is the Pontiff confused? Perhaps this further information can help answer that question...
In a meeting Thursday, PM Binyamin 'BiBi' Netanyahu said of his conversation with the Pope, “I asked him as a moral figure to make his voice heard loudly and continuously against the declarations coming from Iran about their intentions to destroy the state of Israel...It cannot be that at the start of the 21st century, a state arises that says it intends to destroy the Jewish state and that a very strong and aggressive voice isn’t heard condemning this phenomenon...Blocking the Iranian danger will advance peace...We want peace with the Palestinians, but one that brings security. We do not seek to rule a different people, but we also do not want an Iranian-backed terror state to develop beside us and endanger Israel.”
In essence, he asked the Pontiff to denounce the Iranian regime.
The Pope's response? The Pope replied by stating that he believes that the moderate elements in the region should be strengthened and the extremist ones should be fought. He added that as pope, he leads the global battle against anti-Semitism.
Really? Nice soft-shoe there...
Then the blatant anti-Semitic statements spewed by Ahmadinejad must be condemned and the regime, run by the mad Mullahs, must be denounced plain and simple. Why the detour? Has the PC-bug bitten the Vatican?
No matter the reason for the verbal diversion, by ignoring the obvious the Pontiff is endangering current and future generations in the region. Ignoring truth, and the facts on the ground, is doing a grave injustice to the innocent in Israel, as well as the 'Palestinians' used by their leaders as pawns in their bloodthirsty battle against the Jewish State.
Honestly...I'm not sure the Jewish Carpenter, Who started the church, would be pleased with such cowardice or disingenuousness.
Shalom through strength...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Obama: Exposing The Chinks In Our Armor
May 15, 2009
Well, it seems that the Bush Doctrine of not negotiating with terrorists is dead. And here's the evidence...
Iran is categorized as a terrorist state for their funding of terrorist activities and terrorist groups (i.e. Hezbollah, etc.) The Iranian Revolutionary Guard is a terrorist organization.
These are established facts.
So, our Bootlicker-in-Chief has been a busy bee this Spring...he arranged the release of US journalist Roxana Saberi with an exchange deal where Washington agreed to free 4 senior Iranian Revolutionary Guards intelligence officers arrested in Irbil, northern Iraq in January 2007. Tehran calls them "diplomats", but they ran terror operations and covert arms supplies from Iran to Sunni and al Qaeda insurgent webs.
Bravo, Barry...now that's bootlicking at its best...
Only problem is that when you let an enemy, such as this, know you can be bought and sold...you expose weakness to be compromised, and you endanger the national security of our entire nation. But Barry, in all his vast ivy league knowledge, didn't know that--but, of course, he would have learned that if he had actually served in the armed forces...but he didn't...
Barry has made one of the worst mistakes that can be made: Showing the enemy the chinks in your armor.
Look for more kidnappings to follow...these are all tests of our armor...and Barry is putting a dangerous model on display.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Here's A 'Change': Just Say Thank You
May 14, 2009
Personally, I've had it. The disdain for the military from the left, whether it be the current occupant of the White House and his ilk, the media, or elitists from Hollywood to your local college campus...is beyond egregious...for me, it borders on treasonous...
The hatred for our troops is so deeply seated in these ungrateful wretches, when they think they are honoring our warriors, they just insult them all over again...case in point: Hollywood gave an Academy Award for a documentary about the military--committing acts of torture around the world...
Gee, thanks for the encomium...
Let's also recall the Commander-in-Chief, who never thought it necessary to join the ranks--accused our troops, on the campaign trail, of "air-raiding villages and killing civilians"...
When your commander thinks you blow, what's left?
And let's not leave out those 'open-minded', 'tolerant' profs from our examples...their contributions of loathing the military have been too great to number...but let's look at one glaring example, for fun: These fraudulent facilitators of greater knowledge have, in the recent past, tried feverously to block military recruiters from campuses. The result was the people speaking vociferously through their representatives and the Solomon Amendment (1995-97), which denied federal funds to institutions of higher education that denied military recruiters access to campuses or the establishment of ROTC programs. The profs didn't learn their lesson...they challenged it all the way to the Supremes...but, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously that the Solomon Amendment did not infringe on the First Amendment rights of schools that objected to it.
Awww...hatred can only take you so far...but not far enough to kick the ones protecting you...huh?
Here's a paradigm for the current administration: Israel, whose military is attacked almost daily--always states before an investigation, that the Israeli Military is the most ethical military in the world. Now, I greatly respect the IDF, but on ethics...the US Military is number one. But our government has an aversion to stating such truth. Instead, they opt to apologize for our troops behavior before any facts are known concerning an incident.
Now, there's an all-time morale booster for the guys!
Disgraceful...
I'd like to ask all these 'patriots' what they have sacrificed for our great nation? Our troops, current and former, have given up their freedoms to protect ours. Some have given precious time. Some have given up careers and dreams. Some their physical health...and some their very lives. All so we can enjoy the blessings that those liberties produce.
Lesson for all Libs: I know it's a foreign term in your vernacular...but instead of spewing your bile at our heroes...try two simple words: Thank you.
It may not easily roll off your treasonous tongues...but the troops deserve it.
Great Job? C'mon...
May 13, 2009 Toby Keith recently stated that President Obama is doing a "great job" by sending 17,000 additional troops to Afghanistan. Well, with all due respect to the country music mega-star (who selflessly supports the troops): What the hell is he talking about? Sending additional troops (without a cogent game plan) to combat Islamo-thugs is both feckless and highly dangerous. Obama's musings on Afghanistan have been nothing short of schizophrenic. He has waffled, flip-flopped and spoken from the halls of mental chaos about the Afghan theater. Our Commander in Chief has no idea whether he wants to build a Jeffersonian democracy, just keep the enemy off-balance and on the run, engage in a tickle fight with "moderate" Taliban leaders, or something in between. To the contrary, Toby--this does not constitute a "great job," but rather a seriously flawed tactic propounded by a seriously flawed president whose lack of foreign policy acumen is treacherously glaring. What the hell?

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) The Hashemite Kingdom IS The 'Palestinian' State
May 11, 2009
Here's a riddle: What do you call a country where almost 100% of the population is comprised of 'Palestinians'? A 'Palestinian' State, right?
Well, that describes the Kingdom of Jordan. Jordan has a demographic that is 70% 'Palestinian'. Now, as Israel does, if the Bedouin population is incorporated in that category, the figure rises to 100% 'Palestinian'. With these kinds of stats, I think the PA should share in the Kingdom rule...don't you?
But I'm not thinking King Abdullah will allow that to happen...because it was tried before...and his daddy halted that goal...
September 1970 is known as 'Black September' in Arab history and also as the "era of regrettable events." It was a month when Hashemite King Hussein of Jordan moved to crush the autonomy of 'Palestinian' organizations (like the Palestinian Liberation Organization [PLO]) and restore his monarchy's rule over the nation. The violence resulted in the deaths of thousands of people, the vast majority being 'Palestinian' (approximately 30,000). The armed clash ended July 1971 with the ejection of the PLO and thousands of 'Palestinian' miscreants to Lebanon, where they reeked havoc on infidels (Lebanese Christians), and since then have monopolized the country, causing Christians there to cower through appeasement.
Now, Jordan has lots of land (45,495 sq mi, to be precise). They have a population comprised of mostly so-called Palestinians. So why the cry for a 'Palestinian' State?
Well, because like most of the Arab world...they have no concern for these 'refugees'...even though they are Muslim brothers. They are using them as leverage to attain their long-desired goal: The elimination of the State of Israel. And if they would give the 'Palestinians' land on which to reside, the 'Palestinians' would lose their victimhood status, and the Arab world would not only lose their entertainment (terrorism against Jews and other 'infidels'), but their major tool to rid the Middle East (and the world) of Jews, would be gone.
Truth be told, 'Palestinians' are really Jordanians. Here's an informative statement made to the UN by Israeli Ambassador Yehuda Blum on December 3, 1979:
Additionally, another by the current PM, Binyamin 'BiBi' Netanyahu, given to the UN on December 11, 1984:
"Clearly, in Eastern and Western Palestine, there are only two peoples, the Arabs and the Jews. Just as clearly, there are only two states in that area, Jordan and Israel. The Arab State of Jordan, containing some three million Arabs, does not allow a single Jew to live there. It also contains 4/5 of the territory originally allocated by this body's predecessor, the League of Nations, for the Jewish National Home. The other State, Israel, has a population of over four million, of which one sixth is Arab. It contains less than 1/5 of the territory originally allocated to the Jews under the Mandate.... It cannot be said, therefore, that the Arabs of Palestine are lacking a state of their own. The demand for a second Palestinian Arab State in Western Palestine, and a 22nd Arab State in the world, is merely the latest attempt to push Israel back into the hopelessly vulnerable armistice lines of 1949."
They ('Palestinians') are in the land that is rightfully theirs: Jordan...so, it's time to leave the Jewish State alone. We all know the truth. It's time to end this charade. Jordan IS Palestine. Period.
Shalom through strength...in this world, it's the only way.

Deciding To Cower
May 11, 2009 Now that Maine--by legalizing same sex marriage (joining Massachusetts, Iowa and Vermont)--has acquiesced to the pagan gods of sodomy. The very sane among us muse over how we, as a nation--have plummeted into the pits of such morally depravity. Well muse no more, the reason is rather simple: Most conservative leaders (be they religious or political) out of fear of retribution from the doggedly radical homosexual movement--have cowered from telling the truth. These so called leaders could not bring themselves to convey that not only is homosexuality antithetical to Judeo-Christian doctrine, but it (according to most medical studies) is a high-risk behavior. Such practices as sodomy, rimming and fisting have a profoundly deleterious effect on the human body. From lethal infections to varies types of cancer, these practices are clearly and demonstrably caustic. (This, of course--is a major contributing factor [along with suicide] as to why the average homosexual's lifespan is a paltry 42 years.) Political philosopher Edmund Burke stated: "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." We now find ourselves mired in the pits of moral depravity because our leaders--when expected to confront a vile iniquity--decided, instead--to cower.

A Sin Committed By The Spineless May 8, 2009 Are Americans truly demanding health care reform? Well, according to a recent survey of registered US voters--the answer is a resounding no. The survey explicitly revealed that less than 6% of voters considered health care a pressing matter. And when presented with a comprehensive list of hot-button issues to select from--health care (compared to terrorism, immigration, the economy, etc.) did not fare very well. In fact--nearly 95% of voters placed health care at the very bottom of the list. Truth be told, the only reason we are enmeshed in this interminable dialogue concerning health care reform is due to Republican cravenness. Back in the 90's, when Democrats (in an attempt to usher in socialized medicine) stated falsely that our health care system was "broken," the GOP--in an attempt to avoid the label "mean-spirited"--refused to confront this spurious claim. Thus, the stage has been set for President Obama and his fellow Dem(agogues) to ram socialized medicine right down our collective throats. Cravenness: A sin committed by the spineless.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Pulling The Plug On Pakistan
May 7, 2009
There's a lot of discussion of late concerning Pakistan. In the recent past, our relationship was tenuous at best...the former Pakistani leader was paid by us to help in the War on Terror...but did he and the new President Ali Asif Zardari aid in this endeavor? A resounding NO.
And this rogue government is still demanding money in exchange for no help. The Taliban still runs free in the tribal mountain areas, they continue to allow bin Laden to hole up in the tribal areas, and they sponsor terror attacks on their neighbor (and our friend) India.
So what's a democracy to do?
There have been many suggestions, including further money and appeasement (O favors this one), but the most sound proposal has come from Ralph Peters. He suggests that we leave Pakistan to India. That indeed is brilliant...
Why you ask? Allow me to elucidate...
So India is the perfect watchdog for this rogue state.
And apparently India thinks so as well...Indian elite troops, Kharga Corps, are being trained by Israeli military instructors in India and Israel in the skills of operating in Taliban and al Qaeda dominated areas, perhaps yet with biological/radiological weapons.
Nicknamed "Hindi Shakti" (Indian Power), these select Indian units received specialist instruction from Israeli elite and commando forces in tactics for engaging in combat maneuvers behind enemy lines.
We have poured money into the Pakistani coffers for too long, of which some has been turned around into weapons used against our brave troops. Time to 86 this 'brilliant' strategy...
India has tasted of the fruits of freedom and they like it...so they can be trusted to keep the zealots at bay...and by sheer numbers, and now by military tactics...they can handle the tribal loons without our concern.
It's time to pull the plug on Pakistan...and slide it on over the Subcontinent....our only friends in the Middle East (Israel) have made sure they're ready.
Shalom through strength...

Cesspools Of Moral Chaos
May 6, 2009 Those that remonstrate against the practice of waterboarding reside in the cesspools of moral chaos. Imagine, waxing indignant over the simulated drowning of 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammad whose Islamo-machination incinerated over 3,000 innocent Americans. The irrefutable fact is (according to CIA and FBI officials)--by spraying KSM's face with a garden hose (WB)--we were able to extract vital Intel concerning future terrorist plots. Thus, this greatly anathematized interrogation tool is directly responsible for saving thousands, if not millions of American lives. Yet the remonstrators (in all their hyper-piety) view waterboarding--which clearly thwarts the propagation of bloodcurdling evil--as wholly immoral. It is this very brand of convoluted and perverse logic that compels me to the tangible conclusion that these individuals truly do reside in the cesspools of moral chaos.

The Storm Clouds Are Gathering
May 5, 2009 At a Planned Parenthood meeting in 2007 Barack H. Obama stated the following: “We need somebody who's got the heart, the empathy, to recognize what it's like to be a young teenage mom. The empathy to understand what it's like to be poor, or African-American, or gay, or disabled, or old. And that's the criteria by which I'm going to be selecting my judges.” Wow! This highly ominous proclamation clearly indicates that President Obama is going to replace retiring Supreme Court Justice David Souter (a liberal) with a hyper-doctrinaire liberal. You know the type, one who not only takes a Darwinian approach to the Constitution--but also has an unbridled fixation to impose his personal dogma on the citizenry. In short, the new jurist will be a Belligerent in Black who will use judicial fiat as a battering-ram to knock down the few remaining bulwarks of freedom we the people have left. Obama the Ominous: The storm clouds are gathering.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Real Change: How To Kick Your Friends, While Kissing Your Enemies
May 4, 2009
How many times have you heard this one: Israeli occupation is the reason there is no peace in the Middle east?
Ad nauseam?
Well, ostensibly, O and his top advisers are confident of this falsehood, and that the 'Palestinian' problem is the main obstacle to accommodating Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and Iran. Intentionally blind to Israel's assertion of US support for its security in a hostile region, Obama is planning to pressure the Netanyahu government hard for instant engagement on the Middle East conflict without further impediment. Sec. of Defense Robert Gates and National Security Adviser Gen. James Jones are the leading advocates of placing Israel in the line of fire.
Hmm, isn't this where O and BiBi break into a kick-line singing the words of the immortal Cole Porter, "friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship"? Um...yeah...
The only thing O has accomplished in his first 100 days is to show us, and the world, how to plunge a dagger in your friends' back, while kissing your enemies' tukis...
Our only ally (and democracy) in the Middle East and the country that always knew we would stand behind/alongside them, is now considering its options for its survival...options they never thought they would ever have to contemplate.
Nice 'change' O...now you want to twist that knife, while you're at it?
O intends to dictate, to a sovereign nation (Israel), what they will and will not do concerning their national security. Israel will have NO say in the process. BiBi will simply follow O's commands. O's plan for our friends: 1. Israel must freeze settlement activity on the West Bank and construction in East Jerusalem. 2. Israel would have to abandon large segments of the West Bank (by the way, the IDF's presence there is the only reason the West Bank is not the twin of Gaza). 3. Israel must remove authorized communities and unauthorized outposts and hand over the historic heart of Jerusalem to the PA. 4. The Israeli government would be required to accept an independent 'Palestinian' state, even if its government is dominated by the terrorist group Hamas (who, by the way, will never accept Israel's right to exist [hey, there's equity for ya!]). The Netanyahu government will find O and his officials hearing-impaired not only on Israel's legitimate concerns on 'Palestinian violence toward innocent Israeli civilians, but also on a nuclear-armed Iran. Wow, does O have testicular fortitude or what? How in the world did he ever think he had the right to tell an autonomous nation what to do, with no thought taken to the peril that those directives would cost in innocent lives?
Armed with this knowledge of Obama's intentions, it's up to us (and our representatives) to let 'the man who would be king' know we will not allow him to abandon our stalwart friends in their time of need. He may have no problem throwing his friends and family under the bus...but true Americans are faithful to their friends...come hell or high water...
With his disloyal course of action, maybe we should check O's birth certificate, after all?
Shalom through strength...

"A Smash Success"?
May 1, 2009 Rich Lowery, editor of National Review, scribbled the following: "If Barack Obama’s presidency were to end on Day 101, it would be a smash success. He’s popular; the nation’s mood is lifting; he’s adored abroad; and he’s already put his stamp on economic policy." It is this type of genuflection (from certain scribes on the right) that causes me to convulse. Putting aside O's Marxist, domestic agenda--his foreign policy has been an exercise in acerbic, anti-Americanism. His speech in Strasbourg, where he stridently castigated America's "arrogance," marked a new low in presidential ethics. By rebuking his own country on the world stage, O not only emboldened the nefarious forces of Islamofascism (who labor tirelessly to bring about America's bloody demise)--but he also defecated on the graves of American soldiers who liberated Europe from the throes of Nazism. "A smash success," only if your rating President Obama on his uncanny ability to rip America a new one.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Obama: And For My Next Magical Trick
April 30, 2009
Riding on his high personal poll ratings, Obama intends to do his will concerning the PA. His last attempt, through Sec. of State Clinton, didn't fare well when Americans found out...so now O's trying another slight of hand...
O's administration has requested Congress make minor changes in US law that would permit the continued provision of funds to the Palestinian Authority (PA) even if Hamas officials remain part of a 'Palestinian' unity government...which they will since they are the majority party voted in by the 'Palestinian' people. O asked for the changes as part of a $83.4-billion emergency spending bill that also includes funding for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The bill would provide $840 million for the PA and for rebuilding Gaza post-Operation Cast Lead...the operation that was necessary to put a stop to the daily barrage of rockets from Gaza into innocent civilian areas in Israel.
It isn't appalling enough that O is determined to fund these terrorists, knowing full well that the funds will be confiscated and used to kill innocent Jews...but the fact that he's requesting the money be attached to funds to support our troops in carrying out their job of protecting us, is egregious.
US officials assert that O's proposal doesn't amount to recognition of Hamas or assisting the terrorist group.
Really? How are you going to pull that one out of your hat?
Hamas and Fatah ARE terrorist groups. They comprise the PA. If you give the PA the money, Hamas (the majority party) gets the money...and they summarily turn that dough into ammo, to kill innocent Jews.
And now for your next magical trick...
The mere fact that Barry is persistent about this proves he is either clueless about the entire situation...which I doubt...or he truly loathes the Jewish State and is getting his digs in under the guise of 'helping' the poor little 'victims'.
The volunteer for his disappearing act is our tax dollars...and they will never return...along with the innocent Jewish lives lost by Barry's 'generosity'.
Poof!

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Two Reasons There Will NEVER Be A Palestinian State
April 29, 2009
The talk of a two-state solution in the Middle East has been part of the Arab Street's daily fare for almost 42 years...and it won't be ending any time soon...
In order to comprehend the Israeli-Palestinian situation correctly, the following must be understood: The so-called Palestinians and their Arab/Muslim brethren have no intention of ever seeing a 'Palestinian' State side-by-side with Israel. Why? There are two primary reasons...
First, in order to have two states, living side-by-side...the PA (that would include, Hamas & Fatah, which comprises the PA) and their ilk including Hezbollah (let's save time here and say the Muslim Brotherhood and it's tentacles), Iran, Syria, Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, etc....would all have to accept Israel's right to exist.
Ain't happening...a slab of bacon has a better chance of sliding down an Imams throat...
Second, the establishment of a 'Palestinian' State would remove the 'victimhood' status from so-called Palestinians. Millions, upon millions of dollars are donated by world governments for the poor battered 'refugees' (which is summarily confiscated by Hamas et al to fund their Jihad against the Jews). Israel is loathed and condemned daily for their 'treatment' of the 'innocent' and 'displaced' settlers...a source of Muslim recreation. And the Arab Street's main grievance for a lack of peace in the Holy Land (Israel's existence) would be no more.
What would a terrorist have left to live for?
Hopes and dreams of peace are ideals that will never be realized or manifested in the Holy land...and it will NOT be Israel's fault. It's so-called neighbor-wannabes, and their kin, will ensure it will never happen...as long as they live.
Shalom through strength.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Obama: Prince Charming Or Snake Charmer?
April 27, 2009
We've all heard about it...Barry and his 'charm offensive'...Obama believes he can charm just about anyone into seeing things his way. The Iranians, the Europeans, Chavez, the Saudi Prince, etc....(well personally...I find his 'charm' offensive).
But I believe Barry is no Prince Charming, but rather a Snake Charmer...
Snake charmers use an instrument to apparently hypnotize the snake...Barry just uses his Cheshire Cat Smile...Ooo, how charismatic...
But a snake charmer has to keep his eyes on the snake or he can get bitten, as some have. In the case of Barry...it will be impossible, even if he was willing, to keep his eyes on these snakes...and in that case we are the ones who will get bitten...and a poisonous bite it will be.
O may think he is charming and is able to sway our enemies, but truly he is nothing but a useful idiot who is only charming himself into the deception that he can bring change by flashing his ivories. What he is actually doing is giving enemies, like Iran, more time to develop nuclear capabilities. And the message to the Arab Street that we are able to be compromised.
Thanks for charming us into peril, Barry...I guess it's a change from getting a bite taken out of our wallets...snakes on the Hill can take care of that.
In fairy tales, Prince Charming brought a happy ending, but this 'charmer' will not be as gracious...

Will America Ever Survive The Priss-in-Chief?
April 24, 2009 Despite the endless remonstrations (not to mention hyper-prissiness) of President Obama over enhanced interrogations, waterboarding--when it came to extracting vital intel from Islamo-killers--was a highly successful tool. According to former CIA director Michael Hayden, after enduring several session of waterboarding, 9/11 mastermind Khalid Shiekh Mohammed exposed several key terror plots to US interrogators. Subsequently, these machinations where foiled and thousands of innocent American lives were saved. Unfortunately this fails to resonate with a man who not only sat at the feet of an anti-American fanatic for 20 years, but also just returned from a global ass-kissing tour of the world's most truculent, anti-American tyrants. Truth is, President Obama has perfidiously demonstrated that he is willing to sacrifice scores of American lives if, by prohibiting the most successful interrogation tool available could win him the friendship and plaudits of a said tyrants. Will America ever survive the Priss-in-Chief?

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Bringing Down A Nation: Obama Knows How
April 22, 2009
"The most fundamental paradox is that, if we're never to use force, we must be prepared to use it and to use it successfully. We Americans don't want war, and we don't start fights. We don't maintain a strong military force to conquer or coerce others. The purpose of our military is simple and straightforward: we want to prevent war by deterring others from the aggression that causes war. If our efforts are successful, we will have peace and never be forced into battle. There will never be a need to fire a single shot. That's the paradox of deterrence." --Ronald Wilson Reagan
Without a strong military to protect a nation's sovereignty...a nation is not. Vulnerable to all who desire to pillage, conquer or enslave. And when one is honored enough to take the oath of office for the presidency...in which he vows to protect the US from enemies foreign and domestic...that entails using a military that is strong...
Now let's take Obama...a man who on the campaign trail in Nashua, NH said, concerning Afghanistan "gotta get the job done"...which "requires us to have enough troops that we're not just air raiding villages and killing civilians which is causing enormous problems there"...and is now the commander-in-chief of the US Armed Forces. One could be baffled as to why this man would want to be the leader of a force he never desired to serve as a foot soldier, and one he accused of callously slaughtering innocents.
Well wonder no more...O didn't want to be a leader of the military, but a fifth column in it. With his words, he now blows kisses to the troops...but his plan is quite devious. He is surreptitiously using backdoor methods to destroy the strongest military in the world...
Firstly, he is cutting supplemental spending, which is needed to continue combat operations and Special Operations (Spec Ops) like on the Horn of Africa (i.e. Pirates) and the Philippines (Counter Terrorism).
Secondly, he plans to eliminate "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" which would allow Homosexuals to serve openly in the military...which would severely hamstring combat readiness and unit cohesion. (But he wouldn't know that since he never served.)
Thirdly, he is not allowing enhanced interrogations, which will dramatically reduce the amount of intel we receive, not only as it pertains to terrorist attacks on US soil, but also attacks against our troops abroad. It was these very techniques, employed by the Bush administration, that have kept us safe for over 7 years.
A nation is only as strong as its military. Obama knows this. And with that knowledge he will destroy the nation that allowed him to live free and achieve his dreams (which is now everyone else's nightmare).
Shalom through strength...in this world, it is the only way to peace...

In March of this year, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nancy Soderberg, said the plan for an Israeli strike might be moved up if Israel thought Russia was going to follow through on its promise to supply Iran with a surface-to-air missile system that would greatly perplex an Israeli attack.
In addition, IDF Chief of Staff Gabi Ashkenazi said that his military must ready for a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities if diplomatic efforts fail. And they will, because you cannot sit down at the negotiating table with those who are hell-bent on your destruction.
It's 2 minutes to midnight...it's time for Israel to lock and load...they may never get another chance to take this stand...in one piece.

It's Easier To Blame America
April 21, 2009 The liberal mantra that enhanced interrogations (conducted by the CIA) have been exploited by al Quaeda as a recruitment tool against America is pure tripe. Libs have been spewing this drivel for several years now without proffering one stitch of bedrock evidence to support their claim. Of course, the savvy observer knows that said tripe clearly flies in the face of 1,400 years of Islamic history. A history punctuated by bloody jihad against Jews and Christians long before the birth of America, or the advent of waterboarding. Moreover, libs cannot point to one single Muslim (in the days leading up to 9/11) who was being held and 'tortured' by our government that might have provoked the 19 Islamo-hijackers to incinerate 3,000 American innocents. The fact is--jihad against the West is driven by sadistic, Koranic dogma (and nothing else)--which fiercely demands the subjugation and or eradication of all non-believers (particularly Jews and Christians). Sadly, liberals--who find it easier to blame America-- just don't have the balls to admit this fact.

April 17, 2009
The entertainment industry knows the power they possess. And despite truth, they know they can turn, manipulate and deceive the citizenry with as little as a 15 second spot.
According to the terrorism wonk, Robert Spencer, in the summer of 2008, Somali pirates became active off the Horn of Africa. The head of the East African Seafarers’ Assistance Programme (Andrew Mwangura), confirmed that Al-Shabaab (Somali jihadists), use piracy to fund their jihad: "According to our information, the money they make from piracy and ransoms goes to support al-Shabaab activities onshore."
Whoa...you mean the pirates aren't really pirates? Well, shiver me timbers... You see, Al-Shabaab has numerous links to jihadist activity in other areas. Al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen ("Jihadist Youth") is linked to al-Qaeda and promotes the strict application of Islamic law.
Heard about this in the media? Or maybe from the 'agent of change' in the White House? Didn't think so...
These Pirate Jihadists are actually a repeat of history...before Thomas Jefferson became President, he was an envoy to Europe. He questioned the ambassador from Tripoli as to why they were attacking American merchant ships. The ambassador responded by saying 'we are Muslim, and you are Christian, therefore it's our duty to attack you'. These were the infamous Barbary Pirates...
So how about some truth for a change? These 'pirates' are terrorists...they don't don an eye patch, a hat with skull-n-crossbones or parrots perched on their shoulders. They are vicious, bloodthirsty Muslim thugs who fuel, by their activities, worldwide terror...the same that killed 3,000 innocent Americans on 9/11.
So, are the Somali Pirates looking for buried treasure? Or are they really "Voluntary Coast Guards?"
You can send those to walk the plank...cause you now know the truth.
Arrgh!

Did you hear about the 'Palestinian' fishing boat that exploded as it neared the Israeli coast from the area of Gaza. IDF sources said that the booby-trapped boat was triggered by remote control and intended to explode near an Israeli Navy vessel or a civilian coastal community.
Well, Howdy Neighbor!
Honestly, haven't we had enough of this 'peaceful' neighbor bunk? The empirical evidence speaks vociferously that 'palestinians' do not want to be Israel's neighbor...they want to be their undertaker.
You know, if I were Israeli, I'd be buying my welcome mat right now...
And the international community is riding Israel to make friends with THIS?
According to John Bolton, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, "The Obama administration believes that Israel is as much or more of a problem as it is an ally, at least until Israel's disagreements with its neighbors are resolved."
The 'palestinians' want to kill the Israelis, and the Israelis don't want to be killed. That's a disagreement? What is that, a demonstration of the absence of logic? These so-called peace talks are not a neighborhood initiative...they are a graveyard prospective.

We are not speaking about a people who fear being harmed in pursuit of their cause...like the Russians were in the Cold War, but rather a zealous lot who long to die for their cause to gain greater reward (how mercenary). They have stalled for time in myriad ways:
They have used everything from soup to nuts in the menu (Halal, of course) of preventing the delay of their nuclear dreams. They will do and say just about anything (i.e. Ahmadinejad's Christmas message) and use just about anyone (i.e. the IAEA) to stall as they gain more time for their 'nuclear power' project.
Luckily for the Mullahs, the world is full of useful idiots.
So, Tehran stop enriching uranium? We've got a better chance of Barry embracing capitalism...which is not in his genes. Nor is it in the genes of the Iranian Imams to cease and desist this quest.

Two State Solution? Hyper-Delusion

Let me be clear: the United States strongly supports the goal of two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security.” This statement (on its face) certainly sounds tenable. But when the facts are seriously scrutinized, one can only arrive at the following conclusion: The two state solution exists only in the realm of convoluted fantasies. Think I'm kidding? In a recent poll conducted by the Norwegian Fafo Institute, only one third of the Palestinian people favor a two state solution. Why? Because the majority of Palestinians adhere to the insidious Islamic notion that all Jews are apes and pigs, and therefore--must be exterminated. And it is this very notion that has motivated the PLO, PA, Fatah, Hamas and Hezbollah to aggressively attack Israel with sustained ferocity. Here's the bottom line: The Palestinians do not, and never will--acknowledge Israel's right to exist. And as long as this implacable mindset prevails--a two state solution remains mired in the outer limits of hyper-delusion.

Obama: Hypocritical Transgressor
April 9, 2009 Allow me to be blunt: President Obama is a towering hypocrite. Earlier this week, while visiting with the troops in Iraq--our Con-artist in Chief stated the following: "Under enormous strain and under enormous sacrifice, through controversy and difficulty and politics, you've kept your eyes focused on just doing your job." Truth be told, a rather large segment of that "enormous strain" and "controversy" was created by Obama and his anti-war, leftist lap-dogs who decried that Iraq was an unwinnable quagmire. And, lest we forget--it was these same miserable louts who accused our soldiers of unconscionable barbarities against humanity. In the final analysis, Obama not only stridently opposed the war--but he also voted against the very strategy that has produced victory in Mesopotamia: The Surge. President Obama, your first words to the troops should have been "I apologize." But, unfortunately--you are far too arrogant to ever admit your hypocritical transgressions.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Islam Helped America: Are You Kidding?
April 8, 2009
"We will convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith, which has done so much over the centuries to shape the world — including in my own country."
--Barack Obama to the Turkish Parliament April 6, 2009
So our great nation, which was built upon Judeo-Christian principles that insures freedom for all, was shaped by Islam? Really?
I don't know, was the President hopped up on Turkish Delight before he gave this speech? Because a sugar-rush would explain the momentary lapse of memory concerning historical facts.
OK, there's my concession...now to the facts...
And we're just scratching the surface...
I'll give Obama this much...Islam did do a lot to shape our nation: On 9/11. And because of their 'contribution', we'll never be the same again.
Giving them accolades for that is a wee bit morbidly bizarre...to say the least.

Obama: The Man Who Loves To Hate
April 7, 2009
The preponderance of evidence--which unmistakably exhibits that we are in the throes of our nation's first post-American presidency--is staggering. While addressing a group of Europeans last week, President Obama spouted the following: "In America there's a failure to appreciate Europe's leading role in the world. Instead of celebrating your dynamic union and seeking to partner with you to meet common challenges, there have been times where America has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive." I wonder, Mr. Obama--was it "arrogance," or perhaps a "dismissive" or "derisive" attitude that liberated all of Europe from the draconian-grip of Nazism? Perhaps our Commander in Chief (who purports to be a world-class intellect) has forgotten that American blood was ubiquitous on the sands of Normandy over 60 years ago? Obama's talent for anti-American invective (especially while speaking abroad) is second to none. It's becoming disturbingly apparent that the community organizer from Chicago is the most articulate, polished and charismatic self-hating American to ever take the world stage. Barrack Hussein Obama: The man who loves to hate America.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Headed For A Head-On Collision
April 6, 2009
Here's a history quiz...
Q. Captains and Lieutenants from the terrorist group Hezbollah have been spotted in Iraq. Who sent them there? A. Iran
Q. "Explosively formed penetrators" or EFPs, which are being used in Iraq to kill our troops, are made in what country? A. Iran.
Q. Imad Mugniyah , the mastermind leader of Hezbollah who was responsible for the murder of 241 US Marines and other military personnel (as they slept) in 1983 in Beirut, was sent there by what country? A. Iran.
Q. Hezbollah was responsible for blowing up our embassy in Beirut, and for killing the Marine Corps Commandant in Lebanon, and the head of the CIA in Lebanon in the 1980s. They were also responsible for blowing up the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia in the 1990s. And who sent Hezbollah to those areas? A. Iran.
Q. What country is currently, and fervently, developing a nuclear weapon which they have declared they would use to "wipe Israel off the map?" A. Iran.
Q. What country's leaders believe they have been sent by Allah to prepare the way for their 12th Mahdi (The Hidden Imam) by creating chaos in the world? A. Iran.
So we all can see, if we were not already aware, what Iran has done...and is capable of doing in the future.
All of us, that is...except for Obama.
The Obama administration wants Iran as its key military and intelligence partner for resolving America's Afghanistan-Pakistan (aka "Afgpak") quandary. Um, did you get that? Considering the empirical evidence that Iran is a maniacal mass of miscreants chomping at the bit to eliminate Western Civilization...making them a 'military and intelligence partner'?
I don't know about you, but I'd like to see Obama's grades for Western Civ. and Logic...or if he ever took these courses? But Harvard won't allow us to see what Mr. Transparent's records reveal.
So...Obama really did mean he wanted to speak with Iran...with no preconditions...and now he's going to help them make Allah's dreams come true...by giving them access to our military intelligence. (Hey, why not just give us the rope and we'll hang ourselves?)
I'm not feeling all too safe right now, are you?
OK, you 52% that put this foreign policy genius in the driver's seat...we're headed for a head-on collision...any ideas?
I didn't think so...thanks a lot for the peril.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) EU To Israel: Do It Or Else...
April 3, 2009
This past week, the current EU President, Karel Schwarzenberg, gave Israel a stern caveat: If the Netanyahu government will not commit itself to establishing a 'Palestinian' state in the heart of the ancient Jewish homeland..."relations [with the EU] would become very difficult indeed."
In other words, they [Israel] would incur the displeasure of the European Union. Really? Don't they already have that?
Honestly, is that a threat or a promise? What precise benefit is there to having the EU's favor? They allow you to save them from the next tyrannical takeover?
The EU has some testicular fortitude there (too bad they couldn't locate that during WWII). What stupendous audacity (just like their dream king O), that they would dare attempt to give a sovereign nation an ultimatum, however weak...that if complied with would endanger that country's national security.
Is that diplomacy? How about trying that with Iran? Afraid, perhaps, the end result might be a glowing population?
The EU has no authority to dictate to a sovereign nation what that country should do with their land.
And the EU went further...in an apparent attempt to dangle a carrot over Israel, Luxembourg's FM, Jean Asselborn, said the much discussed and desired upgrading of EU-Israeli commerce and political ties would be contingent upon Israel attaining a peace deal with the 'Palestinians'.
Okee dokee...so in order to reach a 'peace' deal, there needs to be an end to disagreements, right? Well, the 'palestinians' want to kill the Israelis. And the Israelis don't want to be killed. How do you settle that 'disagreement', Jean 'Solomon' Asselborn?
Got nothing? Exactly...
So, instead of forcing Israel to allow their enemies to destroy them from within, the EU should focus on cleaning up their ever-growing Muslim problem within their own borders...before Israel pressures them into a two-state solution.
Shalom through strength...Israel gets it...the EU doesn't...do we?

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Bibi: Send A Surreptitious Salvo
April 2, 2009
Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu is now Prime Minister of Israel (Thank God). So what's on the menu? Oh just the arduous work of saving Israel from utter destruction...
Small potatoes (or knishes)...right?
Well sure, if you continue to play the game of 'land-for-(nonexistent) peace'. But I believe Bibi is different. Yes, he's a politician...but he's more than that...he has the chutzpah of a soldier to go it alone, if necessary. And with no friend (but rather a fiend) in the White House...he knows that going it alone is more than a prospect...it's a probability.
Bibi knows the mad mullahs (and their hate-oozing mouthpiece Ahmadinejad) are zealously determined to make Israel disappear from world maps (they're already gone from Arab maps). And if Israel does not act in defense of itself...no one will...certainly not the US, with O in charge.
No matter what phase the Iranians are in of acquiring a nuclear weapon...they will possess the capability sooner rather than later. And, with our pathetic response by Robert Gates, concerning the North Korean missile launch...we have let Iran (and N. Korea) know that they can freely do business on nuclear matters...and we will do NOTHING to stop it.
Hey, now that's progressive change for ya...thanks, O (punch in the arm)...
Will Israel clandestinely strike Iran's nuclear machinations to set back their atomic clock? They have no other choice. Bibi needs to send a surreptitious salvo into Iran's nuclear facilities. And when they do, the promise to Abraham in Genesis 12:3 again will come to pass...to our (and the world's) benefit.
Shalom through strength...in this world milieu, there's no other way.

Glowing: The Best Way To Grow An Economy
April 1, 2009 While our Tree-hugger-in-Chief is furiously touting "green energy"--Europe is slowly undergoing an epiphany when it comes to alternative power sources. From Germany to France to the Ukraine, inefficient solar panels are being phased out in favor of nuclear power plants. In fact, Italy is now looking to generate at least 30% of its electricity from recently constructed nuclear facilities. So, while Obama preaches green--and attempts to paralyze the economy with a feckless cap and trade law-- France (which derives over 80% of its power from nuclear energy) is currently the world's leader in nuclear technology. (How embarrassing!) America, with its intellectual heft, vast resources and entrepreneurial spirit--should be the world's leader in this field. But thanks to Al 'Guru' Gore and his flock of bark-lickers (think Obama)--our government rather subsidize the construction of giant pinwheels than the real thing, nuclear power plants. Hey, it's time to stop being green and go nuclear.

They Deserve Our Unwavering Acclaim
March 31, 2009 Putting aside President Obama's pusillanimous approach to the War on Terror (oh, I'm sorry, the "Overseas Contingency Operation") we must never forget that our great nation is engaged in an epic struggle against the lethal dogmas of Islam. A struggle, mind you--that will decide the very fate of Western Civilization. Will the West continue to be the shinning paradigm of modernity? or will it (due to political correctness) succumb to the ancient machinations of Mohammed and be replaced by a global Islamic empire? As we ponder these gripping questions, there is one bright-spot in midst of all this perplexity and consternation: The US military. Our valiant warriors, as usual--have answered the call. From Afghanistan to Iraq to the horn of Africa and beyond--these intrepid souls have given their all in order to protect and maintain our constitutional republic. Trust me, if not for them--Sharia would be the law of the land, and burqas would be the new summer swimwear. Waxing eloquent about the debt of gratitude we owe our veterans, Winston Churchill stated: "Never in the face of human conflict has so much been owed by so many to so few." Again, despite the pusillanimity--let us never forget (not only the struggle, but more importantly) those who are waging it on our behalf. For it is these unique individuals that deserve our unwavering acclaim and veneration. Support our Troops!

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Israel: Treat Iran Like The Sudan
March 30, 2009
Unbeknownst to the media till now, Israel stealthily carried out an operation in January in the Sudan, in which the IAF (Israeli Air Force) successfully carried out an attack on a convoy of 17 Hamas trucks loaded with weapons heading towards Egypt...with the final destination of Gaza.
Mazel Tov, guys...
Our friends know how to keep stealth operations, stealth. They did it in the 80s with Saddam's reactor. They did in September of 2007 with Syria's reactor. They did it in the Sudan against Hamas...and now we need them to do it one more time...against the pernicious Persians.
Fizzle their fission device...before they become an atomic gadfly...
There is no doubt, according to myriad sources, that Iran is about to possess the nuclear ability to do irreparable damage to the Jewish State. As soon as they have the capabilities in their heinous hands, they WILL use it. Israel is well aware of this...and will be compelled to act to deter this from occurring, despite world condemnation.
Survival has a way of compelling one to act, ya know?
But Israel's efforts to hinder the miscreant mullahs will bless far more than simply itself...if Iran possesses nuclear capabilities, Europe is in peril, the entire Middle East (sans Syria and Lebanon) are at grave risk...and we're not all too comfy either.
Hamas got a raw reminder by Israel's covert operations in January...it's time for Mahmoud and the Mullahs to feel the sting right in their Russian-built nuclear facility...and there's never a better time than the present.
Shalom through strength, as Ronnie always said....
Comments: audreyblog@ediblog.com
March 27, 2009 President Obama's endless (not to mention naive) overtures to Iran have proven fruitless. The Islamic Republic has not only stridently rebuffed each one--but has openly demanded that we withdraw all US forces from the Middle East as a precondition before any substantive dialogue can take place. Say what! Well, maybe now Obama will finally come to the daunting realization that he is not going to bring this pig-headed regime to heel with his charisma? Or, just maybe--the leader of the free world is getting the sense that the Punk of Persia is not going to scrap his nuclear ambitions in favor of (yet) another round of supercilious-rhetoric? Nah! In the final analysis, Barack Hussein Obama is the quintessential narcissist. He is so profoundly in love with himself (and feels that everybody else should be to) that he is totally blinded to the fact that Ahmedinejad (and clerics) despise the very air he breathes. G-d, save us all from this man who covets your throne.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Who's Minding The Money?
March 26, 2009
The US $900 million pledge to the PA, has come with an assurance by US Sec. of State Hillary Clinton that no US funds, earmarked for Gaza, would end up in the “wrong hands.” And by the wrong hands, Clinton is referring to Hamas.
Really? They (Hamas) are the legally elected majority in the PA...how will Clinton perform that magical trick?
The empirical evidence has shown this is impossible. Billions of dollars have streamed into Gaza from hundreds of countries and international organizations. This money was sent with the intention of motivating Gaza economic development and quality of life for Gazans (to accomplish that, all they need do is eliminate Hamas). But that money has remained largely unaccounted for by the international community. How much money has actually reached 'Palestinian' civilians? No one knows. But what we do know is Hamas has acquired funds curiously during this time to replenish their weapons stock...which they have never ceased to use to pummel innocent Israelis in their homes and schools.
In a recent piece I mentioned that the US funds would be transferred through the UN to the PA...and guess what agency at the UN will be the happy messenger? UNRWA.
UNRWA, is the United Nations Relief Works Agency, established in 1949 to aid 'Palestinian' refugees. Problem is...they have shown dangerous partiality to Hamas terrorists.
Some facts about UNRWA:
1. In 2004, a former UNRWA Commissioner-General, Peter Hansen, exposed to the Canadian Broadcasting Company that UNRWA may very well employ Hamas members.
2. UNRWA has employed numerous high profile terrorists, including top Islamic Jihad rocket maker, Awad al-Qiq, killed in an Israeli air strike last May. Al-Qiq was the headmaster and science instructor at an UNRWA school in Rafah.
3. Another terrorist, Hamas interior minister and head of the Executive Force, Said Siyam was a teacher for over two decades in UNRWA schools.
Nice planning there, O...hey...why don't we simply fill their arsenal for them, and bypass the miscreant middlemen?
Not one single penny of this $900 million should find its way into the coffers of the PA. And if it is released to the UN to be 'transferred'...we may live to regret it...by the innocent blood shed, using our funds.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) The Betrayal Of Israel Begins...
March 25, 2009
Perspicacious individuals would all agree that how we treat our only ally in the Middle East (Israel), speaks volumes concerning our position in the War on Terror. And this being true, the treatment of the Israeli Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi on his recent visit to DC, unequivocally says that the current administration is putting our national security at peril...
To say that Lt. Gen. Ashkenazi was given the cold shoulder would be kind. Not one member of the Obama administration...not even his counterpart, Adm. Michael Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff...would meet with the General.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this the President who was going to change our image in the world? I guess you could consider betrayal a change. He has succeeded in 'changing' how many of our allies view us...including, England, Poland, Czech Republic, the new governments in Afghanistan and Iraq...and now our greatest ally in the region: Israel.
Just in time for opening day...O is batting a thousand...
Israel is the only country that truly comprehends the War on Terror...they have been fighting it since 1948. Lest we forget...Israel killed the man responsible for the murder of 241 of our Marines in Beirut in 1983 (Imad Mugniyah). Something no Arab country would have ever done for us.
Do we really want to betray friends like this?

March 24, 2009
"My job is to communicate to the American people that the Muslim world is filled with extraordinary people who simply want to live their lives and see their children live better lives. My job to the Muslim world is to communicate that the Americans are not your enemy." -- Barack Obama in Jan. 2009 on al-Arabiya
A group of 35 Saudi clerics recently insisted that the kingdom's new information minister ban women from appearing on TV or in newspapers and magazines...and that cleric Abdel Aziz Khoja, who was appointed by King Abdullah on Feb. 14, ban the playing of music and music shows on TV.
Hmmm...well, according to Obama's first interview on al-Arabiya in January, the collective Muslim World simply wants to live its lives and "see their children live better lives." Really? Does that include women not being seen and music not being heard?
Oh so THAT'S what progressive means...
Let's briefly review simply living a Muslim life for women (a partial list):
1. Muslim women have to wear the veil (Hijab). 2. Islam encourages wife beating (women are viewed as chattel). 3. The woman inherits half what a man inherits. 4. The woman's testimony is equal only to half of the man's testimony. 5. Men's status is higher than that of the women. 6. Women, not men, are stoned to death for Adultery.
Bottom line...we have freedom and equality for women and Islam...'simply' doesn't.
OK, Prez...reconcile that!
If we take the Saudi kingdom alone, we betray our values by conducting any semblance of civility with these frauds, precisely because women are treated as property...and not treasured property, at that.
And this gibberish about the Muslim world being "filled with extraordinary people" is stunningly misogynistic. O's profound desire to join hands with these Wahhabi-dispersing fiends, should be disturbing at least...and terrifying at best.
These differences cannot be reconciled by unctuous words or a Cheshire Cat smile. O doesn't get that...do we?

Caustic Manifestations
March 23, 2009 Sadly, we are living in the throes of the first post-American presidency in our nation's history. President Barack H. Obama has unambiguously demonstrated (by his frequent mea culpas to Islamic-Thugocracies) that America is liable for all the world's ills. And why is this happening? Well, the answer is strikingly simple. Obama's ideology was birthed and developed in the fever swamps of virulent anti-Americanism. His mentors, Saul Alinsky, Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakhan--are among the most acerbic architects of the "blame America crowd" doctrine. And make no mistake (like his gurus)--Obama fervently believes that our nation is an arrogant and imperialistic hegemony that needs to be taken down a notch or two. Obviously, it is this very convoluted mindset that has driven Obama to greatly reduce military spending over the next four years. In fact, he plans on reducing such spending to an ominously historic low of just under 3% of GDP by 2012. We are now witnessing the caustic manifestations of Obama's leftist training. And it has an eerily familiar attitude: "G-d damn America."

One Feasible Solution
March 20, 2009 Lest we forget, the genesis our current economic tsunami dates back to 1977 when Jimmy Carter signed The Community Reinvestment Act [CRA]. The legislation was designed to meet the credit needs of those on the lower rungs of socioeconomic ladder. In liberal parlance that meant: Giving home loans to individuals that could not afford them. In 1995 (to broaden the insanity) the Clinton Administration decided to greatly expand CRA by allowing Marxist organizations like ACORN to take part in yearly bank reviews to see whether or not these institutions were issuing a "satisfactory" amount of mortgages to minorities. And if they weren't--they were threatened with litigation by the Reno Justice Department. Despite all the left-wing demagoguery to the contrary--it was this highly egregious intervention in the free market system that caused the current global economic crisis. And make no mistake, this crisis cannot be resolved by the very entity that created it: Government. Thus, there's only one feasible solution: The entrepreneurial spirit of the American people.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Obama To Hamas: Here's A Big $900M Wet One
March 19, 2009
How's your wallet looking these days? A little thin? Well, it's about to get thinner, thanks to our Socialist-In-Chief...and he's doing it via one Thugocracy to another...
On his adventures through Sherwood Forrest, O has sent Sec. of State Clinton to announce that $900 million of our hard-earned dough (not his) will be gifted to the PA to aid and rebuild Gaza.
Is that to rebuild missile silos or arms-smuggling tunnels?
And just how is O doing this? Why through the most unreliable, corrupt organization on our turf: The UN. That's right, O is trusting the UN (from the oil-for-food debacle) with our money and having them hand it over to the PA...which is temporarily run by Arafat's creation Fatah (but the majority elected party is another terrorist group, Hamas).
Sheer genius and benevolence.
Now, even though the word, 'schmuck' would normally come to mind here...I am aware that on the campaign trail, O said he thought Hamas had "legitimate claims" against Israel. "Legitimate claims?"
That is beyond whacked...
This allocation of our tax dollars is not the feckless act of an ignoramus, but the calculated act of an ideologue...who is driven by a lifelong, misguided agenda.
A betrayal of our republic and of our only friends in the Middle East could not be more evident. O's actions are tantamount to a big wet one being planted on the mouth of the sworn enemies of freedom (let's not forget that Fatah [who temporarily leads the PA] joined other terrorist groups to declare war on the US a few years ago).
Caveat to O and his minions: If you're going to plant a smooch on a party, better make sure it doesn't blow up in your face.

Whatever Happened To "The War?"
March 18, 2009 In a world rife with Islamo-psychopaths--(who labor assiduously to hasten our demise)-- President Obama has yet to even articulate a substantive war plan for Afghanistan. While in campaign mode last year, Obama habitually called Afghanistan "the war," yet (as commander-in-chief) he has seemingly gone AWOL when it comes this critical conflict. Does he desire to establish a Jeffersonian type democracy, or would he rather craft a stratagem that prevents the Taliban and al Quaeda from developing a stronghold by which they can launch attacks against the West? We have no answers to this poignant and pressing question. Why? Because Obama is far too busy extending olive branches to dictators and tyrants from Tehran to Damascus as well as "moderate" factions of the Taliban. Obama, thus far--has been a foreign policy flop. His acquiescent overtures to the puppet master of Hamas, Hezbollah and beyond have been an exercise in futility. Don't expect a coherent policy on Afghanistan to suddenly emerge. It's apparent that President Obama would rather genuflect at the bloodstained altars of Islamo-dictators than win a war.

The Dire Descent Continues
March 17, 2009
Western Civilization's refusal to galvanize against the evil dictates of Islamo-thuggery will prove catastrophic. From Eurocrats demanding that democratic Israel negotiate with Sunni terrorists, to America's rush to shutter Gitmo in order to assuage the Muslim World--the West is in dire decent.
The West's feckless inability to unify in the face of such rampant Islamism continues to be one of the tragic tales of recent history. It has provided the enemy an open door which it has gladly (and violently) exploited. When America refused to properly respond to Iranian virulence in Lebanon (while Europe was busy placating Arafat and the PLO) Islamo-thugs saw this as a profound failure of the West to collectively combat their ideological aggressions.
As this dire descent continues--we now see Sharia courts in Great Brittan and caustic capitulation from President Obama that will pave the way for the Islamic Republic of Iran to go nuclear. The West's refusal to galvanize against such demonstrable evil will be recorded by future Islamic scholars residing in a global Islamic nation.

March 16, 2009
Prerequisites and requisites are necessary for certain jobs for good reason. If you were having major surgery, you'd want to know that your surgeon has been to medical school, done an internship...and had some time performing operations. It surely would not be a comfort to learn your surgeon was fresh out of law school...the results of such a surgery, with a neophyte holding the scalpel, could be fatal...
The above example is a microcosm of our national situation...
We now have a Trainee-In-Chief with zilch experience as an executive...in any regard. That doesn't give me 'a thrill up my leg'...but a cold chill down my spine...especially concerning foreign affairs.
O is now making deals with Vladimir 'George of the Jungle' Putin to dissuade Iran not to build a nuke. IRAN...the same country for which Russia has been hands-on in building them a nuclear facility.
Still missing that last fry in your happy meal, O?
And our Community Organizer-In-Chief is revealing a great want in historical knowledge concerning the former USSR, the KGB...and the deadly gravity of Iran's goal of destroying the 'little Satan' (Israel) and the 'Great Satan' (US) by any means possible...and in so doing, stirring up chaos upon the earth to usher in the 12th Mahdi.
Oops, guess he missed that lesson...must have been simply 'present' for the session...
That's not all the Messiah-In-Chief is doing...he's also betraying our allies in the region namely: Poland and the Czech Republic, who literally put their lives on the line to agree with us to put missile defense systems in their respective countries. You see...he's making deals with Vlady that if Putin indeed talks Ahmadinejad into stopping his naughty nuke behavior, we will not comply with the agreement we made with our allies.
Hey, O...better sharpen that knife...you might have missed a few backs on your 'love' journey out of the starting gate...but it's doubtful...
Russia and Iran engaging in 'talks' would give Iran the perfect cover to continue its goal of having a nuclear weapon sooner, rather than later.
We are now complicit in helping Iran develop WMD (weapons of mass distraction) in order to continue their WMD development...and spread a fungus cloud over the only democracy in the Middle East. And once they have accomplished this, be sure it will be followed up by an attempt on our shores...and this type of fungus can't be sautéed with onions.
OK...you 52% of voters that put this Einstein in office...feel safer? I 'hope' you have a 'change' of underwear on hand when Iran delivers on its promises...you'll need it...

And we have come to the unabashed conclusion that they (motivated by Koranic law) foster a fiercely nihilistic culture.

March 12, 2009
It's the Lenten season when many, in preparation for Easter, give up something normally enjoyed as a reminder of the ultimate sacrifice made for salvation. But with the recent revealed travel agenda for the Pope...one must wonder what he has given up for lent...
Pope Benedict XVI verified on Sunday that he is coming to Israel in May and will definitely visit the Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial. But, unlike Pope John Paul II, who visited the Temple Mount but did not enter the al-Aksa, Benedict will visit the mosque.
In the face of history...is this wise?
Here are a couple of facts that might be considered before the Papal visit:
Al Aqsa has a caustic history concerning the treatment of Jews. Visiting Yad Vashem and al Aqsa on the same trip seems to be sending the wrong message. Has the Pope decided to send a hypocritical message for Easter...let's reverence the innocent butchered...and make nice with the followers of the ones who held the cleaver?
If you ask me, that just ain't Kosher.
In order to maintain his integrity, the Pope would have to claim he gave up historical truth for lent...and that's just not worth the sacrifice...

Their seeming fanaticism over certain issues--whether it be a Palestinian State, or the return of the Golan Heights to Syria--are mere diversionary tactics and have nothing to do with the policy of land for peace. In 1999, Syrian foreign minister Faruq al-Shara ominously stated that Syria's interest in negotiating with the Israeli government for the return of the Golan Heights has nothing to do with establishing a peaceful coexistence with Israel--but with the ultimate destruction of the Jewish State. History tells us (whether it's the Oslo, Hebron or Wye Accords) that no matter the level of acquiescence Israel operates on: It will always be considered anathema to the hordes.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Swamps Of Ignorance Swallow Young Brits
March 10, 2009
How would you answer the following question:
Q. Auschwitz is: a. A type of beer. b. A religious festival. c. A type of bread. d. A Nazi extermination camp.
If you were one of 1,000 British pupils aged 11-16 in secondary school...you would have guessed a, b, or c...but not d.
According to the London Jewish Cultural Centre, who commissioned the survey:
So, there are about 4.5 million children aged 11-16 in the UK, that would be synonymous to 90,000 kids wrongly identifying Auschwitz as a drink and 45,000 mistaking it as a food.
Hey...are they wearing party hats at that glue-sniffing bash?
What in the world are they shoveling into these kids craniums? Historical facts of an alternate universe?
Where most could identify Adolph Hitler from a photograph, those who couldn't, mistook Winston Churchill, Salvador Dali, and Albert Einstein as the fuehrer. Come on...what's the school uniform, a big red nose and exploding shoes? (Winston Churchill was the former Prime Minister of England, for Pete's sake! They must be acquiring their appreciation of Churchill from Obama.)
Precisely 1.3 million people were exterminated in that death camp during World War II...if that isn't critical enough to impart to the young...then the once great nation, and our greatest ally...has gone gravely awry.
God save the Queen? Better save the children...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Cowering Into Captivity
March 10, 2009
And the story goes...if you put a frog in a pot of boiling water it will jump right out. But, if you put a frog in a pot of lukewarm water and slowly turn it up until it starts to boil, the frog will happily remain in the pot until he is cooked.
This efficaciously illustrates how we can be incrementally destroyed by the ignorance of our environment, or the milieu to which we are allowing ourselves to yield.
In a post-9/11 world, having taken our cues from those who have neither moral courage nor strength of character...say, Europe for instance...it's worth taking a quick peak at how our cousins 'across the pond' and beyond, are standing for liberty:
We are following our 'cousins' well...a brief look at our catalogue of kowtows:
After 9/11, when Muslims took their cue from the 'gay' activists playbook and couched themselves as victims...we began to play the deadliest game of Simon Says this world has ever seen. Because Simon, in this case, is an ideology longing to rule the world by the sword...and guess which end we're on?
The more we continue to cower at the demands of Muslims, the closer we get to losing our precious freedoms and the nearer we get to captivity.
Those that gave their all to retain our freedoms, did not do so, in order for us to deal it away as Esau did his birthright for a bowl of stew.
We need to consider our actions soberly, at such a time as this. We were the nation that saved Europe from sure destruction and captivity to Nazism. Now our feckless trepidation is causing us to cower into a captivity...we may never escape.
For who will be left to rescue us?
Shalom.

Oh, That Deadly Ignorance
March 6, 2009 President Obama displays an extraordinary level of ignorance when it comes to Iran. During a recent interview about the Islamic Republic--Obama stated that he desires to re-establish “the same respect and partnership that America had with the Muslim world as recently as 20 or 30 years ago." Perhaps Obama was to busy studying the works of Saul Alinsky 20 or 30 years ago to notice that Iran was fomenting terror and mayhem--via its proxy Hezbollah--in Lebanon. In the spring of 1983 the Shia terrorist organization--funded by petro-dollars from Tehran--bombed the US embassy in Beirut and a few months later bombed the US Marine barracks killing 241 good men. Manifestly Obama has no regard for history, because if he did--he would come to the stone cold conclusion that extending an olive branch (capitulating) to Iran only produces scores of dead Americans. And, as we all have learned by our government's non-response to the aforementioned attacks: It served to not only embolden Iran--but the entire Islamic World. And it was that Great Emboldening which produced 9/11. If President Obama continues on this lethal course of capitulation with Iran--he'll have to direct some of that stimulus money to the procurement of body bags. Oh, that deadly ignorance.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Iran: The Little Regime That Could
March 5, 2009
We're all familiar with the classic children's story, The Little Engine That Could. The story of a long train that must be pulled over a high mountain. Various larger engines are asked to pull the train; for various reasons they refuse. The request is sent to a small engine, who agrees to try. The engine succeeds in pulling the train over the mountain while repeating its motto: "I-think-I-can".
Well...along comes a terrorist regime who, because of the politically-correct paralysis of many world leaders, they not only think- they- can develop a nuclear arsenal: They KNOW- they- can.
And Iran's Mad Mullahs are counting on this paralysis...they are building their arsenal upon the trepidation of, in particular, Obama and his insatiable desire to be loved and admired by the masses. He dare not say anything that might be considered pro-American or pro-democracy.
And, sadly...it's a solid foundation...
Example, the Revolutionary Guards Chief, Mohammad Ali Jafari (which, by the way, are considered a terrorist group), said, "Today, the Islamic Republic of Iran has missiles with the range of 2,000 km (1,250 miles), and based on that all Israeli land including that regime's nuclear facilities are in the range of our missile capabilities."
Jafari also believes that neither the US nor the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) "had the ability" to strike Iran. Hmmm...was that said under the influence of the Halal brand of crack? The two greatest militaries in the world did not have the ability to strike Iran? Right...
And this is a simple illustration of how 'the little regime that could' has been empowered by the likes of O and his ilk. How PC paralysis has become the fuel for the 'the little regime' and the mushroom cloud that it will produce.
I don't THINK-they-can...I know-they-WILL...

Total Insanity
February 28, 2009
Talk about complete lunacy: President Obama has authorized the Commerce Department to permit the sale of aircraft parts to Syria so the rogue nation can repair its aging 747 fleet.
This move openly contravenes the Syrian Accountability Act implemented by the Bush Administration. The act--which was executed to prevent Syrian President Bashar Assad from using commercial aircraft (747's) from transporting weapons to Hamas and Hezbollah--is now history.
What makes this even more egregious is the preponderance of evidence available that irrefutably demonstrates Syria has used its commercial jets to supply these terrorist organizations in the past.
As Obama continues his sycophantic overtures to Muslim tyrants--our national security spirals further into the abyss.
There's only two words to describe the Syrian decision: Total insanity.

All Carrot, No Stick
February 27, 2009
President Obama's genuflection concerning Tehran is obvious: All carrot, no stick. He has decided that dialogue (not the threat of military action) will bring the recalcitrant Islamic Republic to heel.
This, yet again--underscores the gross naïveté of our chief executive when it comes to the pressing issue of foreign affairs. Ahmedinejad embraces the institution of dialogue (bureaucratic blather) because it buys him more time to develop the one weapon that will produce a mushroom cloud over Israel.
So, as the international community dialogues (led by dove in chief Obama) the Tyrants of Tehran are marching unimpeded towards nuclear empowerment. And it is that empowerment that will allow them to bring the world to heel.
All carrot, no stick--makes the world a very dangerous place.

Towering Hypocrisy
March 3, 2009
Did you ever take notice that Hollywood's apoplectic rage towards those who oppose same-sex marriage never extends abroad to Islamic dictators. You know, the Muslim Neanderthals that not only piercingly oppose the practice, but lead regimes where homosexuality is punishable by beheading?
I find it the height of hypocrisy that Tinsel Town 'tough guy' Sean Penn, who used the bully pulpit at the Academy Awards to chastise those that supported California's Prop 8: "I think it's a good time for those who voted for the ban against gay marriage to sit and reflect on their great shame..."--remains totally reticent when it comes to such thugs as Ahmedinejad and Kaddafi who openly advocate the brutal torture and execution of homosexuals in their given countries.
What a refreshing change it would be to see Penn (along with his fellow thespians) direct his ire at these Islamic autocrats instead of 80 year old grannies who casted a vote in defense of traditional marriage.
If Hollywood truly desires to be an advocate for homosexual rights, it should turn its collective apoplexy loose on those Islamo-tyrants with blood on their hands. Anything less amounts to towering hypocrisy.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Hug-A-Thug, Hollywood Style
March 2, 2009
There's nothing like a dose of reality to shock you into sanity...and that's just what some pious Hollywood liberals received this past week...on a hug-a-thug mission to Tehran by Obama...
This past week, Obama sent a Hollywood veneer smile to Ahmadinejad and his venal puppet masters in the person of Annette Bening and company.
But, alas...the 'little Susie Sunshine' approach didn't warm the Muslim cockles of their hearts. Ahmadinejad's art adviser returned the gleaming grin with a demand that Hollywood apologize for 30 years of "insults and slanders" about Iranians in their films.
Ouch! Didn't see that one coming, did they...
The art advisor mentioned the 2007 war epic "300" for its portrayal of their descendants as bloodthirsty in the Greco-Persian wars, and the destruction of the Iranian flag in the recent film "The Wrestler."
These Tinsel Town elitists are amazingly clueless. They would rather believe the claptrap of the liberal talking-heads (who are as clueless as they), than pick up a book and learn about the 'religion of peace'...and how they perceive Hollywood's morality. The movie capital of the world has a big crescent-shaped target on it...cause Islam doesn't concur with LA's loose-living. And they don't protest by staying home from the theater...that have a more palpable way of expressing their views on Hollywood values...and believe me, it's a 'blast'!
I understand that O and his worshiping ilk are green on the true nature of Islam...and, in their childlike naïveté, they fecklessly attempted to hug-a-thug...but to no avail.
What they did accomplish, however, was to confirm for the ayatollahs that O and his fawning followers are truly useful idiots...and America is more vulnerable for it.
Um, thanks guys...

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Children Say The Darnedest Things
February 26, 2009
After a recent episode of the popular children's show on Iranian television, 'Uncle Fornaj', I'll bet that Persia's favorite President is thinking the same thing that Art Linkletter used to say: Children say the darnedest things.
During a call-in segment of the show, 'Uncle Fornaj', the host, asked a young female caller if she was a good girl who obeyed her parents. She answered, "I'm a good girl and my father bought me a doll," adding that the doll was a stuffed monkey. "My father calls it Ahmadinejad."
Uh oh...I have a sinking feeling that this little girl's daddy will be making a farewell appearance at his home tonight...
It is generally known that the majority of the Iranian people do not like Ahmadinejad...no secret there...but they haven't made a concerted effort, as of yet, to overthrow the Mullahs...so they are stuck with the crazed puppet-perp until they can dethrone the Mad Mullahs.
The more appropriate stuffed animal would have been a jackass-marionette...with his hoof on the button. But that would have been too obvious, ya think?
As far as the caller: Give that little girl a Klondike Bar...

$900 Million Can Be Better Spent
February 25, 2009
On 9/11 Gazan Palestinians danced in the streets, passed out candy and incinerated American flags. Then, when given the prodigious opportunity (in 2007) to engage in free and open elections--they overwhelming chose the Sunni terrorist organization Hamas to lead their government. Subsequently, Hamas provoked a war with Israel (of course the casus belli for the Jewish State was the thousands of rockets fired from Gaza into Israel) and as a result--a large portion of Gaza was destroyed.
The visceral--not to mention logical--reaction to this saga should be strikingly obvious: The Palestinians got what they deserved. Yet it has been reported--to the great angst of many Americans--that the Obama Administration is about to lavish the Palestinian Authority with $900 million to rebuild Gaza.
It is this type of improvident use of tax dollars--particularly during a time of economic turmoil--that not only demonstrates President Obama's utter naïveté concerning foreign policy (since most of that money will certainly be co-opted by Hamas)--but also his total lack of empathy for those Americans suffering financial hardship.
The $900 million can be better spent here at home (perhaps on military pay raises). And as far as the Palestinians are concerned: Let them languish in the dim of destruction they have freely chosen.

Islam's Toxic Sway
February 24, 2009
It is of the utmost importance to expose the deleterious influence that Islam has on our culture. And one of the best ways to accomplish this task is for iconic-feminists (think Nancy Pelosi and Hillary) to crawl out from under the blanket of political correctness that smothers Washington and tell the truth: That the so-called religion of peace and tolerance not only promotes misogyny--but demands it.
There is, unquestionably--a commanding moral imperative (considering the rash of Honor Killings sweeping America) that these women slash through the layered mantle of PC and lay bare this barbaric truth. And the undeniable evidence to support it can be found in the bloodstained pages of the Koran: "And as for those women whose ill-will you have reason to fear, admonish them [first]; then leave them alone in bed; then beat them…” (Sura 4:34).
Make no mistake: It is the staunch adherence (to this Koranic doctrine) that has resulted in the violent deaths of millions of young Muslim women around the globe, including America.
So, concerning the issue of exposing Islam's toxic sway on our culture: It will best be addressed when iconic-feminists begin to show some testiculi.

(The Editor is off today - This is Audrey's Blog) Bringing 'Honor' To The Queen City?
February 23, 2009
There are many ways to bring honor to your hometown...a great community achievement or success in your chosen career, among them. But amid the myriad ways to bring respect to your city does not include, and here's a no-brainer, brutally slaughtering your spouse...
On February 13th in the Queen City a.k.a. Buffalo, NY, apparently as an early 'Valentine's' gift, Muzzammil Hassan gave his wife a symbol of his 'love' that she'd never forget...her head. Muzzammil, who apparently felt that the constant beatings he gave his wife (which enabled her to get an order of protection against him) were not enough, so he decided to end his reign of terror on Aasiya...and restore his 'honor' by barbarically decapitating her.
Restore his 'honor'? Yup...
If you are unfamiliar with this barbaric tradition, allow me to introduce you to the dishonorable practice of 'honor killing'. According to Yasmeen Hassan, "The Fate of Pakistani Women" (International Herald Tribune, May 25, 1999), Honor Killings are "acts of murder in which "a woman is killed for her actual or perceived immoral behavior." That "immoral behavior" can include refusing to submit to an arranged marriage, marital infidelity, insisting upon a divorce, speaking to a male without permission, failing to serve a meal on time, or 'allowing herself' to be raped.
Most 'honor killings' occur in Muslim countries...but does the Quran sanction this behavior toward women?
The simple answer: Yes.
Islam is a misogynist cult* where women are considered chattel. Men are rulers of women, the Quran asserts...one of hundreds of Islamic rulings that relegate women to subservience by the virtue of their gender. Men are allowed four regular wives and numberless temporary ones, while any woman having a liaison with another man is automatically condemned to death by stoning. It's undeniably true that Islamic law is unique in giving divine authorization to certain kinds of abuse of women and children.
Just a sampling from Mohammed's dictates: "Men are in charge of women..." Qur'an 4:34 "And
it is for the women to act as they (the husbands) act by them, in all
fairness; but the men are a step above them." (Sura 2:228)
Brutality toward women from the Quran 4:15:
"If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, take the evidence of four (reliable) witness from amongst you against them; if they testify, confine them to houses until death do claim them..." From the Hadith - Sahi Muslim No. 4206: "There came to him (the Holy Prophet) a woman from Ghamid and said: Allah's Messenger, I have committed adultery, so purify me. ... And she was put in a ditch up to her chest and he commanded people and they stoned her. Khalid b Walid came forward with a stone which he flung at her head and there spurted blood on the face of Khalid and so he abused her." Non-accountability for parents who kill their offspring:
A handbook of Islamic law certified by Al-Azhar as a trustworthy guide to Sunni dogma states that "retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right." However, "not subject to retaliation" is "a father or mother for killing their offspring, or offspring's offspring." ('Umdat al-Salik o1.1-2).
Nice...I guess those kids are sleeping with one eye open...
Some women, more recently, were pressured into becoming suicide bombers in order to restore their family's 'honor'.
Back to Muzzammil...his Bridges TV (founded in 2004 to combat the negative perceptions of Muslims in western media) from its launch, had ties to CAIR (the Council on American-Islamic Relations), the unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas terror funding case. Bridges' original purpose was to "fuse American culture with the values of Islam in a healthy, family-oriented way." Well Aasiya appeared to be doing just that, but her 'loving' hubby had a problem with it. Because that moderate myth was for Western consumption, and not to be taken literally.
When Aasiya dared to go outside the community and report her husband's abuse, she brought dishonor to him within the community. The only solution? Restore his 'honor' by murdering the source of his disgrace: Aasiya.
So, how is the Eerie County DA charging this heinous husband? With second-degree murder. Unbelievable.
Is this what we as a so-called civilized society will tolerate in the name of religion? Is this example of inequity and barbarity based upon one man's misogynistic view (Muhammed), the direction in which our culture should be headed?
I think not. And for the sake of any future Aasiya's, we better redirect our course...because this is the tip of the iceberg.
*Cult - the criteria of a cult is it imprisons its adherents by dictating to them every detail of their lives, and by condemning any member to the death of apostasy for daring to leave its fold.

February 20, 2009
This week, Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and two of his colleagues made a visit to the Middle East.
Their first stop was to missile-assaulted Israeli town of Sderot. Following his visit to the Hamas-battered hamlet, Kerry brilliantly articulated, "What has to change is behavior. What has to change obviously is Hamas's consistent resort to instruments of terror."
Imagine that...terrorists consistently resorting to...terror. Why that's like thieves resorting to...stealing. Or rapists resorting to...rape.
So, Sen. Kerry, what exactly makes a terrorist, a terrorist? His behavior, Einstein.
Numb nuts, like Kerry, are busy stomping their 'carbon footprints' all over the globe to do what? Make asinine statements like terrorist group Hamas consistently resorts to terror?
Isn't it bad enough that these Congressional clowns are robbing us blind under the guise of a stimulus plan...but now they have to spend more of our bucks blathering what a 4 year old can conclude, hoping what the citizenry won't notice what they blather, but how they blather, what they blather.

February 19, 2009
According to their website, the National Organization for Women (NOW) has supposedly been "taking action for women's equality since 1966." Among their activities is the protection of unfettered abortions and the promotion and protection of gay/lesbian rights...NOW also claims to:
OK, here I'm a little confused. Their work to 'stop' violence against women, does that include Muslim women?
Women want answers...
1. On New Year's Day, 2008, Yaser Said was accused of killing his daughters Amina (18) and Sarah (17) after finding out they had boyfriends (named Eddie and Eric, respectively). Said remains at large.
NOW's comments on the incident...(cricket chirps)....
2. ON July 6, 2008 police say, a Pakistani named Chaudhry Rashid strangled his 25-year-old daughter San-deela Kanwal with a Bungee cord in her bedroom because she wanted to end her arranged marriage. This "honor killing" came not in Pakistan, but in Jonesboro, Ga. - a suburb 16 miles outside Atlanta.
NOW's comments on the incident...(cricket chirps)....
3. On Feb. 13, 2009, Muzzammil “Mo” HASSAN, the founder and chief executive officer of Bridges TV, a Buffalo, NY based Islamic television Network he helped pioneer in 2004 amid hopes that it would help portray Muslims in a more positive light, admitted to police that he beheaded his wife, Aasiya Z. Hassan, at the television station. Last month she filed for and received an order of protection against her husband.
NOW's comments on the incident...(cricket chirps)....
So clue me in...why the silence of these heinous violent crimes against women? Don't these women rate, or was that fact that they weren't getting abortions or following the gay lifestyle, eliminate them from the worthiness of NOW's help?
This sham of an organization has pulled the wool over women's eyes for way to long. They have received federal tax dollars for various bogus reasons...and yet legitimate issues concerning women (like Muslim violence) is never addressed. Ok, I'm gonna get mean here...if these insensitive hags cared one iota about their gender, they would haul butt protesting the brutality perpetrated upon women held captive to this barbaric, misogynistic, gutter religion. But the hushed cries of these women are met with indifference.
What an abomination.
This plague upon Muslim women must be on NOW's radar...because we should all hear a blip...not a chirp.

Dearth Of Foreign Policy
February 18, 2009 Has President Obama's conciliatory (and quite frankly, obsequious posture) towards Tehran produced any fruit? Not exactly. In fact, the level of vitriol has increased with every wave of O's white flag. Shortly after the President proffered a mea culpa drenched olive branch to Iran on Arabic TV, Ahmadinejad piercingly responded that it would agree to direct talks with Washington only if it withdrew all US forces from Iraq, Afghanistan and the rest of the Middle East, halt impeding its drive towards acquiring nuclear weapons--as well as forsaking Israel as a strategic partner. Furthermore, the Tyrant of Tehran (once again) displaying his virulent, Anti-Semitic propensities has blacklisted all US representatives who are Jewish, including Obama's envoy to Iran, Dennis Ross. This explicitly (and sadly) demonstrates the dearth of foreign policy experience of the "Hope" and "Change" President. And it just might be this dearth of experience that reduces the US to a groveling, third-world country.

Intellectual Jihad
February 17, 2009
Before the rapid (and not to mention ominous) rise of Darwinism, the overwhelming consensus in Europe was that all human life was sacred, including the unborn. But as this menacing ideology (which advocates the survival of the fittest) started to permeate the minds of Europe's intelligentsia--they began to stridently demand legalized abortion, infanticide, eugenics and euthanasia. And in the end, Europe eschewed its Judeo-Christian heritage in favor of an ism which taught that man evolved out of the murky depths of a primordial swamp.
Sadly, this ideology has been Europe's most vile export. And the blood-spattered results are disturbingly palpable: America has aborted over 50 million babies. And given the hyper-devotion that America's intelligentsia (including our President) has for Darwinism--look for this number to escalate dramatically.
In the final analysis, Darwinism is an intellectual jihad which aggressively teaches that all humans are not equal: Particularly those residing in the womb.
