Yesterday Steve Jobs’ biological father Abdulfattah “John” Jandali, a Syrian-born Sunni Muslim and current casino executive in Reno, Nevada, told the media he knew of his son’s passing but would not be talking about it.  “I really don’t have anything to say,” said Jandali, 80, “I know the news.”
Last August 27th, Jindali gave an interview to the “The Sun”, telling the paper he feared time was running out and he may never get to meet his son.  Jobs never responded to Jandali’s public request for a reunion.  Jandali would later say that the interview he gave the paper was “a mistake”, and that he would not publicly discuss Jobs again.

Sarah Palin will not run for president.  She made the announcement in a letter to supporters Wednesday night.
Read Palin’s letter here:
October 5, 2011
Wasilla, Alaska
After much prayer and serious consideration, I have decided that I will not be seeking the 2012 GOP nomination for President of the United States. As always, my family comes first and obviously Todd and I put great consideration into family life before making this decision. When we serve, we devote ourselves to God, family and country. My decision maintains this order.
My decision is based upon a review of what common sense Conservatives and Independents have accomplished, especially over the last year. I believe that at this time I can be more effective in a decisive role to help elect other true public servants to office – from the nation’s governors to Congressional seats and the Presidency. We need to continue to actively and aggressively help those who will stop the “fundamental transformation” of our nation and instead seek the restoration of our greatness, our goodness and our constitutional republic based on the rule of law.

Listen to this rant from a poster child for the Left.  He’s a college graduate making $7.00 an hour working as a plumber.  I guess if the Tea Party is racist, then this makes the Occupy Wall Street group anti-semites…using lefty logic?

(WorldNetDaily)…TEL AVIV – Syrian President Bashar Assad today reportedly warned he will set the Middle East on fire if NATO forces attack his country.  “If a crazy measure is taken against Damascus, I will need not more than six hours to transfer hundreds of rockets and missiles to the Golan Heights to fire them at Tel Aviv,” Assad reportedly said, according to Iran’s state-run Fars news agency.
Assad made the comments in a meeting today with Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmad Davutoglu, reported Fars.  Fars reported Davutoglu conveyed a warning from NATO and the U.S. that Syria could face an international military campaign if Assad does not halt his violent crackdown on an insurgency targeting the Syrian president’s regime.  Assad also reiterated that Damascus will call on Hezbollah in Lebanon to launch an intensive rocket and missile attack on Israel, reported Fars.  “All these events will happen in three hours, but in the second three hours, Iran will attack the U.S. warships in the Persian Gulf and the U.S., and European interests will be targeted simultaneously,” Assad was quoted as saying.  While Assad’s remarks could not be immediately verified, Iran, which runs Fars, is a close partner of the Damascus government.
