The Associated Press and Reuters wire services both sent forth a story of 1,000 to 1,300 Muslims proclaiming solidarity against Islamic Terror by joining hands around an Oslo synagogue in a visible “protection” PR campaign.  The story held all the feel good, touchy, feely, warm and fuzzy sentiments the collectivists love to promote… except.

Except it wasn’t real, it never happened, it was totally fabricated by the media. There were only around “20 or so” Muslims who showed up, the other 980 to 1,280 were completely made up by the media.

BREITBART – The weekend’s feel-good story about a Muslim “ring of peace” formed to “protect” Jews at an Oslo synagogue turned out to be a complete fabrication by the mainstream media, according to an eyewitness report, local officials, and attendees’ photos.

According to a local eyewitness, only about 20 or so Muslims formed the “ring of peace” around the Oslo synagogue. In fact, pictures from multiple angles show that there wasn’t enough people to form a ring, so the locals instead formed a horizontal line in front of the synagogue.

Marie Harf joined Chris Matthews on MSNBC yesterday to advance an ideology we have actually heard before. When discussing radical Islam, and more specifically ISIS, according to Harf:

“We’re killing a lot of them and we’re going to keep killing more of them. So are the Egyptians, so are the Jordanians. They’re in this fight with us. But we cannot win this war by killing them. We cannot kill our way out of this war. We need in the medium to longer term to go after the root causes that leads people to join these groups, whether it’s lack of opportunity for jobs”.

Now pause for a moment, turn your head at a 25° angle, cross your eyes, pretend she is in direct eye contact with yourself…. and ask the obvious:  “Dear Ms. Harf, if that be true – then why in sam kittens is President Obama asking for AN AUTHORIZATION OF MILITARY FORCE” ? {{Mic Drop}} (more…)

That’ll teach em’….

According to ITV News a rather large gathering of people came together rallying to show solidarity for the victims of the weekend’s Copenhagen shootings: “Scores of people have attended a candlelit vigil in Copenhagen tonight following the weekend’s fatal shootings. Two men detained on Sunday by police investigating the two fatal shootings in Copenhagen have been charged with aiding the suspected attacker.

The suspected Copenhagen gunman was a 22-year-old Danish man known to authorities for a history of violence and weapon possession, police have said. Danish media outlets have identified him as Omar Abdel Hamid El-Hussein, though police would not confirm the identity”.  (source link)

One would think the various countries who find themselves victims to the terrorist attacks would additionally be willing to do more to aid in the elimination of the source of the threat. Yet few of the countries are willing to put their own military or defense teams on the ground to join the coalition effort.
It is one thing to hold a candlelight vigil, it is another thing entirely to avoid the need for the candles in the first place.

If it seems like you are seeing an uptick in activity insistent upon you not reconciling six years of our research effort into U.S. activity regarding Mid-East affairs; I can assure you it is because you are….

If you saw the Mediterranean filled with the blood of the Coptic martyrs coinciding simultaneously with the Israel’s call for the return of the Jews to Zion; I can assure you it is because you did….
Now....
(Via Counter Jihad) If it seems that Islamic State (IS) atrocities are descending to ever-more horrific levels of barbarity, then the message is getting through as intended.
As Congress begins to consider the President’s proposed new Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF), it would be well to understand just how desperately IS has been trying to lure Western ground forces into the land of Al-Sham.
The amputations, beheadings, crucifixions, immolations, and sex slavery – perpetrated in meticulous emulation of the Life of Muhammad and obedience to Islamic Law (shariah) – were from the beginning carefully calculated to ‘strike terror into the hearts of the enemy’ (Q 8:12, 8:60), while also eliciting an emotional reaction that would drive the U.S. recklessly to send its military back to the region’s battlefields.

Something about the investigation and reports so far is not adding up. The named suspect does not fit the physical description (picture) released yesterday of a “suspect of interest”…. and notice how quick the media is to use the term “lone wolf”… Hmmm?
(Via Daily Mail) This is the first picture of the terror suspect believed to have killed a film director and Jewish security guard in two attacks in Copenhagen.
Danish-born Omar Abdel Hamid El-Hussein, 22, was killed after opening fire on officers who had closed down the area surrounding Norrebro metro station at about 5am today.
The man – whom police said is known to them due to past violence, gang-related activities and and possession of weapons – is thought to have killed two people in separate attacks at a free speech event and a synagogue.
Film director Finn Noergaard, 55, was killed yesterday at a cafe. Hours later, 37-year-old security employee Dan Uzan was shot in the head as he stood outside a building belonging to the city’s Great Synagogue.
This afternoon two people were led out of an internet cafe in handcuffs as part of the probe. (more…)

Within hours of the attacks, and while Denmark police are still trying to sort through the various shooting scenes in Copenhagen; and while suspects have not yet been identified – the New York Times jumps in to deflect attention: “Anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim sentiment is rising in Europe”…
It only took the Times four paragraphs to turn the still evolving story from an Islamist gunman targeting Jews and Cartoonists, to an apologetic spin on Muslims as victims of publicity.
LONDON — Two attacks shook Copenhagen, with a gunman spraying bullets into a cafe where a Swedish cartoonist who had caricatured the Prophet Mohammad was speaking, followed hours later by a shooting outside the city’s main synagogue early Sunday morning.
One man was killed in the cafe attack on Saturday and three police officers were wounded; a man was shot in the head in the second attack and later died, and two officers were wounded, Danish television reported. It was not clear if the attacks were linked, but in each case the gunman escaped, raising fears throughout the capital.
Police swarmed into the city center, evacuating a train station, setting up roadblocks and warning people to remain indoors. Police later said they had shot and killed a man near Norrebro station who had shot at them first, according to TV2, a Danish station.
The latest violence comes as Europe is increasingly on edge over the January assaults on a French satirical newspaper and a kosher supermarket in Paris, the worst spasm of terrorism in France in decades. Anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim sentiment is rising in Europe, and although there was no indication who was responsible for the shootings in Copenhagen, Twitter was ablaze with anti-Muslim indictments.

ANOTHER – “bunch of random folks in a cafe’ in Copenhagen”

[…]“The cafe in northern Copenhagen, known for its jazz concerts, was hosting an event titled “Art, blasphemy and the freedom of expression” when the shots were fired. Niels Ivar Larsen, one of the speakers at the event, told TV2 that at least two people were wounded. (link)

DENMARK – One person is reportedly dead and others are injured after a shooting at a meeting on free speech where a controversial Danish cartoonist was speaking.
Danish media reported a cafe in Copenhagen was peppered with around 30 bullet holes in the shooting. (more…)

Given the latest series of hit pieces coming from the liberal media, it’s obvious who they fear and who they support. Scott Walker comes under fire from the Washington Post, New York Times and CNN. Meanwhile Jeb Bush is praised.
However, the latest New York Times ‘hit piece’ is a construct of intentionally false information as the Weekly Standard points out:

NYT […] “All of that came as a distinct surprise to Claudia Felske, a member of the faculty at East Troy High School who actually was named a Wisconsin Teacher of the Year in 2010. In a phone interview, Felske said she still remembers when she got the news at a “surprise pep assembly at my school.” As well as the fact that those layoffs happened because Walker cut state aid to education“….

President Obama is doing this stuff now just to poke antagonism toward those Americans who oppose his agenda.   His team is trying to antagonize.  Apparently the parking spot shooting draws Obama’s concern and attention because the three victims were Muslim.

If you let this stuff annoy you, he wins.
