A MESSAGE FROM SOUTHERN ISRAEL – […] Our kids are showing signs of severe stress. Our spouses have stopped eating when there is news about an attack in Gaza. Our blood pressure goes up as we count off the locations where missiles have fallen – sometimes when we were only a few hundred meters away. The sound of a distant car alarm sets off a crying jag that simply has no real justification other than that burning feeling of not being able to take it anymore.

The unified, resilient front is still there, but it is being propped up by a million people living under threat of missile fire, each of us forced to confront our own individual fears. My own response has already become physical – clearly a manifestation of PTSD. And I am not alone. All my rational understanding of the futility of war has simply become raw, unpolished fear that comes over me when I hear that piercing sound of the siren. (more…)

The consistent lies and outright scheming from the Obama White House are about to reach sunlight.  Various intelligence reporters are now pointing out that Petraeus is stating the Susan Rice “talking points” about Benghazi DID NOT come from his intelligence office gathering, they came from the White House.  (Obama screwed up yesterday when he openly took ownership of them – his handlers are freaking)

EYES WIDE OPEN – Now reports are leaking that Petraeus is “under investigation” for security leaks.  THIS IS NOT ACCIDENTAL OR UNCONNECTED.  Remember the goal: The White House GOAL:   1.) Move current opinion of Gen Petraeus 2.) Use CIA Angle as cover for misleading information. 3.) Take no responsibility for the lies and falsehoods. They must find a way to stop Petreaus from collapsing their narrative. (more…)

CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) – Sources tell FOX 32 News that Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. is willing to give up his 2nd Congressional District seat if he’s given disability when he steps down.

Jackson Jr. was re-elected to his tenth term but last month, sources say, he applied for a disability package–what could be his only income if he resigns. It is expected to take a couple of weeks for Congress to approve or deny the request. (more…)

Whether or not Killing Hamas Leader Amhed Jabari is the Israeli Archduke Ferdinand moment is yet to be decided.  But, one thing is certain – Israel is more isolated than ever before.

Today President Obama refused to rule out any unlawful activity on the part of General Petraeus.  Instead deferring to the ongoing FBI investigation.  ie “seeds of doubt“.

Then what happens “Presto”  Reuters *cough* Report –  WASHINGTON, Nov 14 (Reuters) – A computer used by Paula Broadwell, the woman whose affair with CIA director General David Petraeus led to his resignation, contained substantial classified information that should have been stored under more secure conditions, law enforcement and national security officials said on Wednesday.

The contents of the classified material and how Broadwell acquired it remain under investigation, said the officials. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to comment publicly.  (more)

Reminder:  The White House GOAL: 1.) Move current opinion of Gen Petraeus 2.) Use CIA Angle as cover for misleading information. 3.) Take no responsibility for the lies and falsehoods.   They must find a way to stop Petreaus from collapsing their narrative.

Think of advancing their objectives like advancing a football in the game toward the Goal line: (more…)

Again, the most important aspect to any discussion of events and research comes back to the timeline.   Petraeus gave his testimony briefing on Sept. 14th.  More after the video:

Transcript: I think the really shocking news today was that General Petraeus thought and hoped he could keep his job. He thought that it might and it would be kept secret, and that he could stay in his position. I think what that tells us is really important.

It meant that he understood that the FBI obviously knew what was going on. He was hoping that those administration officials would not disclose what had happened, and therefore hoping that he would keep his job. And that meant that he understood that his job, his reputation, his legacy, his whole celebrated life was in the hands of the administration, and he expected they would protect him by keeping it quiet.

(Via Doug Ross – The righteous) I want to address the rocket scientist RINOs typified by House Speaker John Boehner and commentator William Kristol, both of whom have expressed a willingness to “compromise” with Democrats and raise taxes on “millionaires”. And by “millionaires”, they of course mean any individual making over $200,000 and any family making over $250,000. And, as everyone knows, a substantial number of these folks are small business owners, who account for roughly half of all the jobs created by small business.

I would like to unleash a rant on these two, but first, please read this item spotted while surfing the web. (more…)

Apparently Petraeus/Broadwell, Terrorists and sneaky teenagers are not the only ones who want to find a super-secret way to use electronic communications.    Which for public officials is essentially bad enough.   However, when you claim to be  the most “transparent administration ever”, well, that just makes you a liar. 

If you want to avoid a Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) public disclosure filing, this is one way – create bogus named email accounts to hide behind.   (Via Daily Caller)  The name Richard Windsor may sound innocuous, but it is allegedly one of  the secret “alias” email accounts used by Obama EPA Administrator Lisa  Jackson.

“That is the name — sorry, one of the alias names — used by Obama’s radical  EPA chief to keep her email from those who ask for it,” Chris Horner,  senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute and author of the new book “The Liberal War on on Transparency,” told the  Daily Caller News Foundation in an email.

Condi Rice approaches three perspectives:  1.) what was the breakdown in security leading up to the attack on 9/11.   2.)  What took place during that 8 or 9 hours when the State Dept. had a “real time” feed of activity.   3.)  Why was there a White House breakdown in communicating the reason for the attack.

Remember the White House GOAL: 1.) Move current opinion of Gen Petraeus 2.) Use CIA Angle as cover for misleading information.  3.)  Take no responsibility for the lies and falsehoods.    Think of advancing their objectives like advancing a football in the game toward the Goal line:

√20 yard line – Petraeus is a solid patriot ===> √   …. Fri
√30 yard line – Petraeus is fallible/human ====> √ …. Sat/Sun
√40 yard line – Petraeus lost his capacity for judgement ====> √…. Mon
√50 yard line – Petraeus is/was distracted ===> √  …. Tue
√40 yard line – Petraeus is compromised ===>  Wednesday Press Conference 
30 yard line – Petraeus is unstable  ===> then
20 yard line – Petraeus is not-credible ===> then
10 yard line – Petraeus is out for revenge. ====> then
Touchdown – Petraeus is a liar.

Each Administration player, including Media “special teams” (See Michael Hastings and CNN Suzanne Kelly) will have a specific goal in advancing the narrative of protection for the Administration.   Remember: “How to win the game”?  Isolate => Ridicule => Marginalize.

It is how they roll. Always.

WASHINGTON DC – President Barack Obama will take questions from the press on Wednesday, Nov.  14.  Obama has avoided the press conferences since mid-June, when he took  questions at an international conference in Mexico. (more…)
