May I ask why this is such a controversy ?   We all knew the impetus for OBL’s hatred of The United States was driven, in part, by his anger about being ostracized in Saudi Arabia for his vocal opposition to Saudi asking the U.S. for help when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait and visibly threatened to drive his Republican Guard South into Saudi Arabia.

OBL was angry with the kingdom’s decision to align with the U.S. for protection – OBL was a Saudi National with massive internal support within the region.   So why would it be a shock that those OBL aligned elements within the house of Saud would be part of the 911 attacks?

The bigger question is: who, or what, benefits from this public discussion being injected into our body politic at this specific moment?

(New York Post)  After the 9/11 attacks, the public was told al Qaeda acted alone, with no state sponsors.

But the White House never let it see an entire section of Congress’ investigative report on 9/11 dealing with “specific sources of foreign support” for the 19 hijackers, 15 of whom were Saudi nationals.

It was kept secret and remains so today. (more…)

NORTH CAROLINA – WINTON – Another unprovoked assault – apparently part of a national craze known as the “Knockout game” – has netted several arrests as well as prompting Hertford County Sheriff Juan Vaughan to issue a stern warning.
“This type of activity will not be tolerated here in Hertford County. Those participating in Knockout will be arrested and I feel certain that our District Attorney will prosecute those involved to the fullest extent of the law,” Vaughan stated.
The latest arrests involve three individuals, including one previously charged by the Ahoskie Police Department for a similar crime. (more…)

I really wanted to hunker down and ride it out.  But the insufferable propaganda around the death of Nelson Mandela is too much to ignore. Rather than deconstruct all of these ridiculous liberal CNN-isms and talking points, let’s just cut it down to brass tacks and stick to historical facts.
Apartheid as a political structure in South Africa was bad. Oppression under any guise is always wrong.
But with Apartheid you must step back to the geo-political map of 1976-1990 and evaluate the alternatives.
A bunch of stuff happened between the fall of the Shah of Iran and the collapse of the Berlin Wall / Soviet Empire which framed the backdrop for U.S. political discussion and eventual activity in South Africa.
Namely, for those of us who were actually engaged in the fight, the last big push of desperate Communist expansion was underway.  (more…)

This is really over-the-top.    If you think anti-Semitism does not infect the highest reaches of all political offices this will essentially set you straight.   This is MUST READ stuff:
 Pam Geller and Robert Spencer are heroes of uncompromising magnitude.  They have educated millions of people on the intents and purposes of radical Islam.  While doing so they have held a spotlight on Culturally Marxist (Politically correct) infection that always accompanies such discussions.   As a consequence of their effectiveness they have been banned from travel to Great Britain.  So they began to send in records requests to find out what the official U.K state reasoning is behind their restrictions.  The “Official” records they have uncovered within Great Britain outline their visible support for the state of Israel is a reason for their being banned.   

( Pam Geller Writes )  The British government tried to cover its tracks. But a new cache  of documents Robert Spencer and I have received in our battle to overturn our  being banned from Britain reveal that a chief reason why we were banned from the  country was because we strongly support Israel.

As part of our lawsuit against  the Queen of England and the Home Secretary et al, we have received numerous  documents between the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the Office of Security  and Counterterrorism, and the Home Secretary. In one of them, an official in the  Foreign & Commonwealth Office whose name was redacted wrote this letter on  May 7 to a recipient whose name was also redacted: (more…)

Gee, ya think the “Senior Officials in the white house”… might be referring to DENIS MCDONOUGH / VALERIE JARRETT / SAMANTHA POWERS ? I mean that “desperate and weak” line is classic McDonough.
Remember too, Samantha Power, as U.N. Ambassador, is a cabinet level position in the Obama administration – and she hates Israel perhaps even more than ValJar.   Oh that Trifecta-of-Hate crew is going to be all kinds of defrosted if Netanyahu pokes back. You better believe it.    How dare a jew point fingers back at our Dear Leader.
The duo of McDonough and Jarrett are counting on this Iran deal to distract people from noticing their doctor has locked his/her door.   This White House will not allow themselves to be undermined – and absolutely not by Netanyahu.   This is a deal you cannot refuse.
WASHINGTON DC – Senior officials in the White House have said that Israel Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu “is desperate and weak,” in reaction to Netanyahu’s remonstrations against the deal struck with Iran over its nuclear weapons program.
Israeli television Channel 10quoted the officials as saying “His pronouncements show a lack of self-confidence,” in an unusually harsh personal attack on Netanyahu. “We are not perturbed by his vocal opposition.” (more…)

In a subtle speech outlining Israel’s position on the EU/Obama acquiescence to Iran Netanyahu vows to keep the light.

It’s not coincidental Netanyahu chose this specific passage from a Jewish children’s song given the former U.S. position (Reagan Doctrine) of light retention amid the dark forces of global evil.    In essence Israel is saying they will not fall victim to the political correctness inherent in failing to talk about true motives and objectives of Iran, while simultaneously saying someone must stand up to say there are natural laws of right and wrong.
It is the elimination of true principles behind what is good, right and just, while obfuscating and falling victim to political correctness which allows evil to thrive.    As we have often said – failing to accept the existence of evil enterprise does not protect you from it.  Regardless how that enterprise manifests.
The United States used to hold such bold recognitions.  However, under the leftward and self-serving immoral slide, the lines between right and wrong, good and bad, freedom and serfdom, have been blurred.

ISRAEL – Melding the Hanukkah holiday and foreign affairs, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu solemnly vowed to serve as a “light unto the nations” and act against Iran’s nuclear program should diplomacy fail Thursday night. (more…)

VIA TELEGRAPH – A senior advisor to the Saudi royal family has accused its Western allies of deceiving the oil rich kingdom in striking the nuclear accord with Iran and said Riyadh would follow an independent foreign policy.

Nawaf Obaid told a think tank meeting in London that Saudi Arabia was determined to pursue its own foreign and policy goals. Having in the past been reactive to events, the leading Sunni Muslim nation was determined to be pro-active in future.
Mr Obaid said that while Saudi Arabia knew that the US was talking directly to Iran through a channel in the Gulf state of Oman, Washington had not directly briefed its ally.
“We were lied to, things were hidden from us,” he said. “The problem is not with the deal struck in Geneva but how it was done.”   (read more)

How do you know this is immediate state run media propaganda?   Well, setting aside the fact it’s Clinton’s White House Communications Director -who became Senior Democrat Advisor For Policy and Strategy- George Stephanopoulos doing the interview, the first sentence reveals structure and propaganda.

“I spoke to John Kerry earlier this morning right after he sealed the deal”.

“this morning” as in Europe time.
Kerry held his presser at 4:45am to 5:30am Euro time. [As in 10:45 to 11:30pm DC time]. So this interview was actually done Saturday night (midnight-ish) for airing today.
Follow.The.Bouncing.Ball…… So this interview was previously arranged/coordinated between the White House (Administration McDonough) and ABC (Pravda).

George Will:  “Iran will now definitely get the [atomic] bomb” !

CAIRO — Israeli officials knew they were being kept in the dark as the U.S. conducted secret talks with Iran, and the knowledge that the White House was “going behind Israel’s back” was one of the key sources of tension between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Barack Obama, according to a senior Israeli minister and other Israeli officials.
