The current, 2013, political discussion about U.S. intervention in Syria is exactly the same conversation from February 2011 about Libya.   Same argument (R2P), same players (Obama, Power, Rice, Jarrett) and same ideology – The only difference is ignoring the anticipated outcome. 

When the Freedom Green Party in Iran stood up in 2009, President Obama said he preferred to “reach out” – The Islamists killed the Freedom Criers.
In Egypt, 2010, Obama played golf, then stood behind al-Qaeda affiliate Mohammed al Zawahiri and Muslim Brotherhood Candidate Morsi – The Islamists killed the Freedom Criers.
In Libya, 2011, Obama played golf, then stood behind “the rebels” led by Mustafa Abdel Jalil, who held the place card for al-Qaeda Benghazi Division –  The Islamists drove the Freedom Criers to Tripoli and now control Eastern Libya, Benghazi, Darna et al.
In Syria, 2011, Obama played golf, then played golf, then played more golf, and then finally played even more golf.
Leading to Syria, 2013.
When Saddam Hussein’s family fled Iraq, where did they go?   Syria.   When Hussein was playing hide-and-seek with the WMD used to kill the Kurds, where did the convoys go?  Syria.
When the Afghanistan fighting season ended in 2011 where did the Ayman al Zawahiri al-Qaeda go?   Egypt and Libya.   When Benghazi started to work on overthrowing Quackdaffy, where did the “rebels” come from?   Egypt, Iraq and Afghanistan.
You see, this is, essentially, a mobile al-Qaeda force compromised of hardline Salafist Islamists, who flow to where the freedom conflict lies, and when they get there they mount their efforts. (more…)

Side Question:  How come the media has stopped using the word WMD now that President Obama is in office?   Oh well,…..

Some things are more reflective than others.   A famous person once said: those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it, or something similar.   Well, this is one Obama Administration repetition worth highlighting.

On Wednesday of last week the United Nations Security Council held an emergency meeting to discuss the recent chemical attacks being witnessed in Syria.   Those chemical and/or biological attacks have been a great source of international attention and concern.
However, our U.N. Ambassador, Samantha Power, was conspicuously absent from the Security Council meeting.   The Administration was questioned, and the White House mysteriously avoided answering where she was.   Why was the United States not present during the meeting?   Where was Samantha Power?
Today it is reported she missed the meeting in order to attend a Charlie Chaplin Film Festival.   No joke, this is the real reason.   It sure explains why the White House was dodging the question and refused to answer.
But here comes the historical context. (more…)

As opposed to?…………………  Oh, yeah, those four DEAD Americans.

After all…. (more…)

This was a prediction made almost 4 years ago by the entire Tree House admin team.   It is a self fulfilling prophecy that some entity will have to step into the void left by the U.S. withdrawal.   Little did we know that whistleblowers who identify illegal and unconstitutional U.S. Domestic Spying programs would also be seeking Russian help.

It was clearly written between the lines in Cairo 2009, that newly elected President Obama would reflect favorable opinion of Islam;…  and Islam carried to its logical conclusion is antithetical to individual freedom and liberty.   The Green Movement in Iraq quickly found that out the hard way.
It seemed odd, even bizarre, to conceptualize as President Obama took office – that someone, probably Russia and/or China, would have to step in to assist burgeoning cries for Democracy or representative freedom.    Bizarre as it sounded at the time, such is the current filler of the void.
EGYPT – As the situation in Egypt escalates, a source with very close ties to the Egyptian government tells Breitbart News that the country is preparing to send a diplomatic mission to Russia. While the Obama Administration sends conflicting messages about the conflict, Russia, China and Saudi Arabia have issued strong statements in support of the government’s crackdown on the Muslim Brotherhood. America’s influence in the region is waning. (more…)

EGYPT – The Egyptian defense minister has ordered the repair and reconstruction of all churches that suffered damage in the country’s violent demonstrations since the Egyptian military removed President Mohamed Morsi from power last month.
Defense minister Col. Gen. Abdel Fattah El-Sisi intends to fix the damage to Coptic churches at Rabaa Adaweya and Nahda squares, according to a report by the Mid-East Christian News.
Dozens of churches were attacked and burned in riots after thousands of demonstrators took to the streets of Cairo and other Egyptian cities to demand the end of what they call military rule, following the removal of Morsi on July 3. Many of Morsi’s supporters have voiced criticism at Egypt’s Christian minority for largely supporting the military’s decision to oust him from office. (more…)

I’ve been looking for a way to aptly describe all the recent events in Egypt.   Then I saw this recent picture courtesy of Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit.   It appropriately describes what the U.S. media is desperate to avoid:

The average Egyptian is not an Islamist.   To the contrary they are moderates – having lived with ‘westernized freedom principles’ amid the presidency of Hosni Mubarak.   Sure, there were elements the average citizen did not like about Mubarak – and the absence of technological investment in their economy was a source of constant irritation.
However, they did not want to devolve into an Islamist State.   Initially the Muslim Brotherhood promised not to run for election – but they reversed their position and being the only organized political group in Egypt they quickly moved to manipulate the election and the electorate.   The outcome was President Morsi. (more…)

This does not come as a surprise to anyone who has followed the events in Libya.  Especially those of us who were highlighting the missile issues well before the Benghazi 9/11/12 attacks.

Originally, in March of 2011, our research showed clearly – In 2007, during a little known raid against Islamist forces based in Syria, the United States became aware the origin, and home country, of many al-Qaeda operatives who ended up fighting against us in Iraq.   Captured documents were shipped to the West Point Military Academy’s Combatting Terrorism Center.
From those documents we learned: […]  The eastern Libyan city of Darnah sent more fighters to Iraq than any other single city or town, according to the West Point report. It noted that 52 militants came to Iraq from Darnah, a city of just 80,000 people (the second-largest source of fighters was Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which has a population of more than 4 million).

This post merely outlines the supporting trail of evidence to follow-up on the original post.   Due to prior post length this independent update needed for intellectual absorption.
The original outline is HERE
The reason we are sharing this information is to help awaken those who only moderately understand the length, depth, and breadth of the manipulation put forth by CNN as a willfully blind leftist enabler to the Radically Left policies of the White House and administration.
We know there are many thousands of people who already understand how blatant this is.   The target audience for this information is those who just “can’t believe” what is outlined – yet have a common sense cognition to accept what is there, when it is shown.
So yesterday we constructed the pathway to deconstructing the narrative, and showing the points of attachment which are REALLY HARD to accept; but the truth does not care for your comfort – it exists with or without you being able to comprehend it.
As expected the CNN full hour Story “The Truth About Benghazi”, put forth by Erin Burnett, is not available on their website.   Actually, you really have to search to find any mention of it whatsoever.   However, we have done the logistics to create the shortcuts for you. (more…)

The average freedom loving Egyptian person, and the Egyptian military, are furious.   Duh.     What did McCain / Graham actually hope to accomplish with this insufferable stupidity?

[…]  During their press conference Tuesday afternoon, McCain and Graham urged the Egyptian government to find a way to reach an accord with the Muslim Brotherhood protesters, and called on the military to release the handful of party leaders who have recently been arrested.
“In democracy, you sit down and talk to each other,” said Graham. “It is impossible to talk to somebody who is in jail.”

Hence the irrational disconnect.  McCain and Graham are cognitive codependent enablers for the Muslim Brotherhood crew who would destroy all individual freedom within Egypt.
McCain/Graham pontificate about Democracy but really what they are advocating for is “mob rule”, which is the very central component of the uprising that just dispatched the Muslim Brotherhood.   The average Egyptian does not want “mob rule”, they want to be free and able to strive…

Graham and McCain seem to conveniently forget it was the Muslim Brotherhood who disbanded the law and legal processes once they took power.  It was Isamist Morsi who took over the government, disbanded the judicial process, and instituted totalitarian control of the entire nation. (more…)

You can get a deconstruction of the media at many places. The people who visit the Treehouse want to see the entire context; The entire truth, as it presents.

So here we go….

In any endeavor of corruption and misleading governance, the control of, and support by, the media, is an absolute necessity. The USSR needed Pravda to keep the ruse of governance for decades. The need of/by the U.S. government has steadily grown over the course of several progressive decades; but the urgency has increased exponentially over the past five years with the extremes of The Obama Administration.
Yesterday another blatant example of this was clearly evident to those who are tuned in to the deceptive enterprise. However, for the sake of those who do not have the time or energy to actually track such things, here is what took place.
CNN broadcast a story about the Benghazi attacks on 9/11/12; a subject of much controversy. So much so, the administration cannot seem to get away from it because the deceptive narrative is so fundamentally false. Enter the need for the Pravda-esque media, CNN.
CNN needs to maintain an optic of middle road media in order to be effective. MSNBC is so far down the water-carrying road they are essentially useless in helping the White House except for motivating and cheerleading the base of Democrats. But CNN has a more important role, they need the illusion of journalism, as it pertains to the current U.S. administration, in order to be effective.
In the past 48 hours a series of events took place to establish the optic for their Benghazi coverage. (more…)
