Karnit Goldwasser the spouse of kidnapped IDF Soldier Ehud Goldwasser
posed as a reporter at the United Nations during Iranian President Ahmadinejad visit this week.
As Ahmadinejad entered the press conference he came in smiled and as he walked passed Goldwasser he said Hi not knowing who she was.
During the time for questions the Ehud Goldwasser's spouse said, "Hello my name is Karnit the wife of Ehud Goldwasser, the Solidier who has been held captive for over a year. Since you are the man that is behind the kidnapping due to the aid you grant Hezbollah, why don't you allow the Red Cross to visit the two Soldiers?"
Ahmadinejad ignored her question. Karnit Goldwasser said later, "...now he knows that the kidnapped Soldier's wife can reach him too...I wanted to pass out pictures of the captives to the reporters in the back rows but they took me out...they were only doing their job...I told an Officer that this man would decide whether my husband will come home and that this is the man that can within a second solve the conflict."
Rosh Hashanah was the beginning of the New Year 5768 Yom Kippur is the Day of Atonement and Sukkot is the Celebration of Bounty and being grateful for the many blessings that G-d has given to all of us.
The event involves building a Sukkah which is decorated with fruits, it is about rejuvenation.
Its time to celebrate!
Unsure who Cyndi Li is but I do have a Xiao-Mei (Little Sister) good friend of mine in China that uses the name "Cindy" as an American name.
Many Americans have difficulty pronouncing Chinese names and so it is not all that uncommon for Chinese natives to use American sounding names. In my case, my spouse family name is Li and I have taken that name to use.
When wanting to read a bad work of fiction, I may turn to taking a cursory look at the "Reverend" Jim Sutter's Blog and today I noticed that the Islamic Radical apologist hasn't failed me and has again written what he must consider a masterpiece, one of his finest works?
In an effort to silence his critics, the "Reverend" Jim Sutter has claimed to had some meeting with representatives of the International Criminal Court (ICC) and says, "All I am allowed to say about the targets of this investigation is that there are more than one at this time, it is anticipated that there may eventually be additional targets...I suggest that anyone who thinks they may be subject of such an investigation consult an attorney with expertise and experience in international law..." at the end of his latest entry, my name is listed along with Robert Spencer, Charles Johnson and other's that have challenged Sutter's fictitious resume claims.
It is rather doubtful that the phony Navy Seal was interviewed for 2 hours by Investigators of the ICC as the convicted felon at his Hate Watch Hall of Shame site claims.
When the phony Navy Seal, Convicted Felon, Liar to the FBI---"Reverend" Jim Sutter initially wrote his latest bizarre entry on the 23 September, I sent him a brief rebuttal saying that Americans are not subject to the jurisdiction of the ICC and have followed up that the ICC prosecutes cases of Genocide, Crimes against Humanity and War Crimes.
The "Reverend" Jim Sutter is welcome to write whatever bit of fiction that enters his mind and he often does, the fact is criticizing a phony Navy Seal that claims to have trained with the Israel Defense Force, having been convicted in federal court for fraud and lying to the FBI is not a crime in which the ICC has jurisdiction.
There is a package of Kool Aide and Fruit Loops in the mail for the "Reverend Mania" so he doesn't run out.
Holocaust Denier President Ahmadinejad spoke this afternoon at Columbia University amid protests, his rambling remarks were more like a convoluted sermon than an address, quoting the Quran, warning about corrupting influences and continued calling for investigations into the Holocaust "...approaching from different perspectives." Ahmadinejad claimed that Iran was a victim of terrorism and that "... Iran is a peaceful and loving nation...the rights of all human beings should be respected...in Iran we don't have homosexuals like in your country...[audience broke out in laughter] we are a cultured nation..."
It is unfortunate that Columbia University ostensibly dedicated to the pursuit of truth and intellectual freedom should choose to provide a fascist, so divorced from reality and history a platform to espouse his rhetoric.
Ahmadinejad claimed today that the "...Iranian people are very joyous and happy people, they are free in expressing what they think...Women in Iran are the freest in the world..."
On June 29, 2006 an Islamic Court sentenced Malik Ghorbany a 34 year old mother to death by stoning for adultery. The size of the stones to be used during the execution were not to be too large to cause death too quickly and not to small that they would fail to cause pain or injury. The stone throwers were members of the community, this festive occasion allowed parents to bring their children to join in the fun.
Women in Iran are considered sinister and satanic, the embodiment of seduction, a woman must stay at home to serve her husbands carnal desires.
Mullah Mohamed Yazdi has said, "...if kneeling before God were not obligatory, wives should have knelt before their husbands...a woman is wholly the possession of her husband and her public life is conditional upon her husbands consent."
Women are slaves in Iran and may enjoy freedom of speech while being stoned to death for violating archaic morality laws.
"A controversy has developed about the invitation extended to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran by the Columbia School of International and Public Affairs. Although Columbia Law School was not involved in arranging this invitation, we have received many inquiries about it."
"The event raises deep and complicated issues about how best to express our commitment to intellectual freedom and to our way of life. Although we believe in free and open debate at Columbia and should never suppress points of view, we are also committed to academic standards. A high quality academic discussion depends on intellectual honesty but unfortunately, Mr. Ahmadinejad has proven himself time and time again, to be uninterested in whether his words are true. Therefore, my personal opinion is that he should not be invited to speak. Mr. Ahmadinejad is a reprehensible and dangerous figure who presides over a repressive regime, is responsible for the deaths of American Soldiers, denies the Holocaust and calls for the destruction of Israel. It would be deeply regrettable if some misread the invitation as lending prestige or legitimacy to his views."
Holocaust Denier Ahmadinejad arrived into the United States for the opening of the U.N. General Assembly. Subsequent to his activities at the U.N. Ahmadinejad will be making an address at Columbia University.
John Coatsworth, Dean of the School of International & Public Affairs has said, "...If Hitler were in the United States and wanted a platform from which to speak, he would have plenty of platforms to speak in the United States...if he were willing to engage in debate and a discussion to be challenged by Columbia students and faculty, we would certainly invite him."
Columbia has a long history of providing a forum to Fascists, it once welcomed Nazi Germany's U.S. Ambassador Hans Luther to speak at the university in December 1933 triggering a student revolt.
National Iranian American Council (NIAC) has complained today that Republican Presidential Candidate Rudy Giuliani has played "...politics with U.S. National Security..." following the GOP front runners comments yesterday that the United States should do whatever it takes to keep Iran from becoming a nuclear power.
Rudy Giuliani said on Wednesday, that if Iran gets close to building a nuclear weapon, "we will prevent them or we will set them back 5 or 10 years...this is not said as a threat, this should be said as a promise..."
NIAC, the American apologist for Iran has said on their web site today, "...Republican Presidential Candidates have sought to out-hawk each other on Iran in the run up to the primaries, making threats and promises about the use of military force without considering the consequence to U.S. national security..." NIAC isn't complaining about the Cut and Run DNC party of Failure and Defeat.
The NIAC is a CAIR clone, apologist for Islamic fascism and terrorism. NIAC presents itself as an educational non-partisan group that should appease Iran and negotiate away our national security interests.
President Ahmadinejad has repeatedly threatened to destroy Israel and yesterday the Iranian Fascist government threatened both the United States & Israel and said, "October 12 will issue its final response during the Worlds Qods Day...the United States loses all opportunities to cooperate with regional and other world states by trying to support a regime (the Zionist regime) which is now at its weakest political and social position...Washington instance on its wrong policies and arrogant approaches would have no result but further political disgrace for itself...Supporters of the Zionist regime will definitely receive the final response for their support on that day."
NIAC & CAIR have been silent about Iranian President latest threat to the United States & Israel.
Former NYC Mayor Giuliani said, "The policy of the United States of America should be very, very clear, that we will use any option we believe is in our best interest to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear power and that were not going to let that happen."
We are fortunate to have a strong leader in the White House today who is successfully prosecuting the war against terrorism and are likewise fortunate that our next Republican President will continue to prosecute the war against Islamic fascism and terrorism.
On September 25 Islamic Propagandist & Conspiracy Theorist David Ray Griffin the author of The New Pearl Harbor will be speaking in Columbus, Ohio at the First Congregational Church at 7:00 pm
Less than a month ago I wrote here, "...Conspiracy theorists believe they possess a special knowledge that a secret plot was hatched to mislead the public in pursuit of some hidden agenda." CAIR It's Love For 9/11 Conspiracy Theories--August 27, 2007
Central Ohioans Against Terrorism in an article entitled "9/11 Denier Coming to Columbus promoted by Mayor Coleman advisor Ahmad Al-Akhras " Sept. 19, 2007 addresses this in detail and CAIR's continued love for a conspiracy.
The war on terrorism has many fronts and the propaganda war is but one of them.
A computer hacker promoting Turkish nationalism posted a video and a message on the Vietnam Memorial Web Site, blocking the site search functions while defacing the site with a statement against the United States & Israel.
According to the FBI the Turkish message read, Is there any equal or likeness to our Martyrs at Gallipoli? It is an apparent reference to the Battle of Gallipoli in 1915 during World War I during which Soldiers from the Ottman Empire repelled an Allied operation to capture Istanbul, suffering heavy casualties of more than 250,000 the video called it "A Story Written in Blood."
Cheryl Criteser the Associations Secretary-Treasurer said, "...these kinds of groups are opportunistic and are going to do whatever they think they have to do to get their message out...I've gotten death threats, I've gotten all kinds of negative stuff from other countries. I just figure they are wackos."
An oily substance was splashed on the memorial this month was the result of vandalism according to Park Police. The oily substance was first noticed on September 7 on part of the granite wall containing 58,000 men and women killed or missing during the war. The Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund has offered a $5,000.00 Reward for the arrest and conviction of persons that vandalized the wall.
Judge Michael Mukasey an Orthodox Jew who sat on the federal bench for 18 years in the S.D. New York and 6 of those years as Chief Judge, has been nominated by President Bush to serve as the 81st Attorney General of the United States.
Judge Mukasey graduated in 1959 from Ramaz Sschool, a modern Orthodox prep school in Manhattan and from there graduated from Columbia before attending Yale Law School and graduating in 1967
In 1987 Judge Mukasey was nominated by President Ronald Reagan to the federal bench in New York, serving honorably until his retirement in 2006 During his tenure he presided over the criminal case of Islamic Terrorist Thugs Omar Abdel Rahman & El Sayyid Nosair whom he sentenced to life in prison for conspiring to blow up the United Nations and other NYC landmarks uncovered during the investigation of the 1993 WTC Bombing.
Andrew Ceresney who worked as a Law Clerk for the Jurist said, "...the ex-judge could improve morale in the Justice Department because of his independent streak...he will not be afraid to take positions over fear it will hurt him down the road. When your a judge, you make the decisions. That instills in you an independence that he is not going to lose by virtue of this appointment."
Judge Mukasey enjoys wide bi-partisan support, in June, 2003 Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) submitted the Jurist name to the White House for consideration to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The American public last week witnessed first hand the competent leadership that our Senior Military Leaders provide while witnessing the dismal failure of the Democratic leadership in Congress.
This is likewise reflective in the latest Zogby Poll Numbers for Congress which shows an approval level of a mere 11% a new all time low, surpassing it's previous record low of 14% in July.
President Bush's public approval rating stands at 29% which is nearly 3 times higher than the Congress.
General Petraeus demonstrated the incompetency of liberals, exposing their hypocrisy and ineptitude with the real issues facing our Soldiers and Sailors who defend our nation. The liberals are blinded by their own failings and have allowed far left political Muskrats such as Dailykos.com to cloud their reasonings and sensibilities should any still exist. The Democratic leadership is disingenuous when they stand before the microphones preaching a message of failure and defeat.
Our nation is searching for leadership and statesmen as we move forward towards next years elections. Our nation is at war with Islamic Terrorist Thugs who are out to destroy our Republic and way of life.
The future of America rest not in mediocrity but in the constant renewal of leadership in every phase of our national life. President Herbert Hoover
Iran promised that on October 12 it will issue its Final Response during the worlds Qods Day according to IRNA News, Sept. 19, 2007
Gholam-Hossein Elham said, "The United States loses all opportunities to cooperate with regional and other world states by trying to support a regime (the Zionist regime) which is now at its weakest political and social position...Washington insistence on its wrong policies and arrogant approaches would have no result but further political disgrace for itself...Supporters of the Zionist regime will definitely receive the final response for their support on that day."
Major General Yahya Rahim-Safavi said yesterday, "...that Iran will strike in shortest possible time in case of any U.S. strike on its nuclear facilities...the enemy will face strong armed forces especially the Basij (suicide bombers and child soldiers) if it unleashed a military attack on Iran."
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad seen here with Iranian President Ahmadinejad defended their right to carry out it's nuclear activities according to the official Iranian News Agency.
According to Janes Defense Weekly, the recent Israel Air Force strike in Syria was ordered subsequent to an accident involving a joint Syria-Iran attempt to mount a chemical weapon on a scud missile. Engineers at a weapons facility accidentally released Sarin and VX Nerve gas into the air on July 23 killing dozens of Iranian engineers and 15 Syrian officers.
"Iran has drawn up plans to bomb Israel...Israel is within range of Iran's medium range missiles and its fighter bombers..." according to General Mohammed Alavi, in an interview with the Fars News Agency.
The White House said today that Gen. Alavi's comments were not helpful and that that it almost seems provocative. Israel Foreign Minstry Spokesman Mark Regev said, "...We take this threat very seriously so does the international community."
President Ahmadinejad has repeatedly threatened to "...wipe Israel off the map."
Gen. Mohammed Hasan Kousehchi said in an interview with IRNA News "Today the United States is within Iran's sights and all around our country but it doesn't mean we have been encircled they have encircled themselves and are within our range...U.S. Forces in Iraq, Afghanistan, in the Gulf, Kuwait has a major U.S. base, the U.S. 5th fleet patrols the Gulf is based in Bahrain and U.S. Forces Central Command in Qatar."
Iran expands its hold on the region by developing Nuclear, Biological and Chemical weapons---there is no longer any room for Iran or Syria to continue to lie about its intentions on producing weapons of mass destruction in light of the accident at its weapons facility in July.
Iran and Syria pose a very serious threat to both the United States and our best friend in the middle east Israel.
In other news, President Ahmadinejad asked for permission to visit the WTC site and lay a wreath during his visit next week when he attends the opening of the U.N. General Assembly. New York Officials quickly nixed that idea and denied his request. The United States has likewise denied the request for a Visa to Iran's U.N. Ambassador in Geneva as he was involved in the 1979 Embassy take-over.
Andrew Meyer, the University of Florida student tasered by Police this week in Gainsville, FL has become a web star. U.S. Senator John Kerry (D-MA) was accepting questions from students following his address in an auditorium filled with students and faculty.
Video clips have been shown all around the world and have been seen more than 400,000 times.
The American Civil Liberties Union & Amnesty International have now rose in support of the student who has tested the waters of free speech at a public forum. Sen. Kerry has said that, "..I could have handled the situation without interruption..."
While Tasers are now being added to the arsenal by many Police agencies today, how do tasers work? Are they actually safe?
Tasers delivery a lot of volts and have resulted in deaths when not used in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Tasers are tethered to long insulated wires and can be fired from a weapon with a burst of carbon dioxide.
Once the electrodes hit their target, the taser sends a pulse of 50,000 volts and a few miliamps on its standard setting, the pulse cycles for 5 seconds before shutting off but may continue as long as a Police Officer holds the trigger. The 5 second shock, sends intense signals through an individuals central nervous system, which results in considerable pain and triggers contraction in all the muscles. Temporary paralysis can set in and most victims fall to the ground.
The manufacturer has warned that tasers may cause breathing problems, skin irritation, small puncture wounds and minor burns, the muscle contractions may result in athletic type injuries.
Amnesty International contends that tasers have resulted in more than 150 deaths nationwide since 2001 an individual who is intoxicated or may have a pre-existing heart condition are more at risk than an average adult.
Sen. Kerry said that he never felt threatened as he attempted to quiet the crowd and he asked the Police to permit Mr. Meyer to ask his question.
To mark the 6th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks by Al-Qaeda the Palestinian Authority Newspaper Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, ran a cartoon depicting Osama bin-Laden flashing a "V" for victory sign, his 2 fingers formed the shape of the WTC Towers which collapsed. The cartoon according to PMW was prepared exclusively for the newspaper, which is owned and managed by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas.
Islamic fascists are prone to violence, condemning cartoons that depict Muhammed in print which they determine are blasphemous to the people of the Muslim faith. Is there a double standard here?
Some cartoons that have pictured Muhammed have resulted in violence, more than 100 deaths resulting from Muslims rioting, setting fires, desecrating flags and issuing death threats. Some critics of Muhammed cartoons describe them as racist and Islamophobic claiming that Muslims are being targeted in a discriminatory way.
Subsequent to the 9/11 attacks which resulted in more than 3,000 deaths, Palestinian Arabs were photographed celebrating in the streets as Americans were just beginning to grieve for the loss of family members and friends that were murdered or injured.
Americans will not be rioting in the streets, protesting the insensitive cartoons which Arab Terrorist Thugs run in their newspapers celebrating the loss of life of innocent civilians.
Believers in the true and living G-d in America, Israel and the western world realize that human life is sacred and have respect for our freedoms that we cherish.
The U.S. 9th Circuit Ct. of Appeals has dismissed a case in which 16 relatives of deceased Arabs from the Palestinian Authority and one American Rachel Corrie, had sought to collect damages against Caterpillar, Inc. for war crimes and other human rights violations.
In a unanimous decision yesterday, Corrie v. Caterpillar, Inc. No. 05-36210; D.C. No. CV-05-05192-FDB Judge Kim Wardlaw said, "...The Supreme Court has indicated that disputes involving political questions lie outside of the Article III jurisdiction of the federal courts, see, Schlesinger v. Reservists Comm. to Stop the War, 418 U.S. 208-215...We hold that if a case presents a political question, we lack subject matter jurisdiction...the conduct of the foreign relations of our government is committed by the Constitution to the executive and legislative Branches...and the propriety of what may be done in the exercise of political power is not subject to judicial inquiry or decision, see Oetijen v. Cent Leather Co. 246 U.S. 297-302...Allowing this action to proceed would necessarily require the judicial branch of our government to question the political branches decision to grant extensive military aid to Israel...We cannot intrude into our government's decision to grant military assistance to Israel, even indirectly by deciding this challenge to a defense contractor's sales..."
Speaking to the New York Sun, Maria LaHood, Atty for the Appellants said, "...the decision was a huge disappointment..."
In the on-going war against Arab Terrorist Thugs, the IDF has deployed Caterpillar Bulldozers to clear destroyed vehicles from roads, raze homes which hold snipers, burying weapons smuggling tunnels and opening routes to armored fighting vehicles.
The U.S. Military has deployed several of these bulldozers for operations in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The ACLU has said that Sen. Larry Craig's hand movements and foot tapping inside a public restroom at the Minneapolis Airport, amounted to Constitutionally protected free speech.
The Idaho Senator had plead guilty to one misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct but has now asked the Court to permit him to withdraw his guilty plea.
The Police Officer who arrested Senator Craig said that the Senator was moving his foot next to his, in a way that indicated that he was seeking a sexual rendezvous and was sending a signal by swiping his hand under the divider between the stalls and peeping into the officer's stall before taking his own stall.
From the Police Officer's experience, these were all signs that someone was soliciting gay sex.
The ACLU has argued in a brief filed today in Craig's case, that the disorderly conduct statute is too vague to be enforceable. Chuck Samuelson, Executive Director of Minnesota ACLU has said, "...other Police Departments have prevented bathroom sex by posting signs and patrolling with uniformed Police Officers...the undercover work is kind of like a sting operation that is at the very best boarders on entrapment."
Since Sen. Craig's arrest on June 11, the restroom is now attracting tourists according to airport officials.
U.S. District Court Judge Martin Jenkins, today granted a Defendant's motion to dismiss a complaint under the caption of State of California v. General Motors Corp. , et. al. Case No. C06-05755 which alleged that the nations 6 leading auto makers are accountable for global warming.
California last year filed suit against the auto makers seeking the recovery of millions of dollars in damages from the effects of global warming induced floods and droughts. The Judge ruled today that it was impossible to determine to what extent if any the auto makers have for global warming.
Deputy Attorney General Ken Alex who represented the State of California said, "We will give some serious considerations to an appeal."
U.S. Postal Inspectors are searching for the author of 9 Terrorist Post Cards sent to Florida Schools. Investigators report that the threats are made up in various and traditional themes and each one has a distinctive hand drawn cartoon on it. 6 of the 9 posts cards spell Jihad correctly the other 3 do not. Several of the threats arrived on post cards featuring Walt Disney World.
The U.S. Postal Service says the post cards were mailed from the Ocala-Gainsville, FL area a $10,000.00 Reward has been offered for information to anyone that leads to the arrest of the person or persons responsible for sending out the post cards.
Hillary Clinton's call for Universal Health Care today would require businesses to obtain health care for all of their employees and said the wealthy should pay more in taxes to pay for her socialized medicine.
Clinton calls her proposal the American Health Choices Plan but actually would give Americans no choice at all. Some Americans that are young and healthy choose not to buy coverage but to Hillary, forcing everyone to participate is a choice. The new socialized medical plan would cost tax-payers $110 Billion Dollars a year according to Clinton.
Anything which the government gets involved in besides creating new federal bureaucracies tend to cost considerable more than forecast.
Hillary claims that she has identified $56 Billion Dollars in savings through computerized record keeping, reducing the prices for prescription drugs and cutting Medicare over payments.
Currently Wal-Mart is selling commonly prescribed generic drugs throughout the country for $4.00 and has announced plans to set up convenient walk-in clinics at many of its stores nationwide. The free market place is already providing American consumers with a choice---Hillary Clinton must not be a Wal-Mart shopper?
Republican Presidential Candidate Rudy Giuliani called Hillary Care "..Clinton's latest health care scheme which includes more government mandates, expensive federal subsidies and more big bureaucracy..."
For the fifth time since April, NATO forces have intercepted Iranian made weapons being sent to the Taliban in Afghanistan.
In June NATO confirmed that Iranian weapons were seized in Western Afghanistan. On September 16 NATO security forces seized an Iranian arms shipment destined for the Taliban. The shipment included armor piercing bombs known as explosives formed projectiles which have been deadly being used in conjunction with roadside bombs. Of course, Iran denies the allegations saying, "...the charges are baseless...we have no interest in instability in Iraq or Afghanistan, we have good neighborly relations with the Heads of State who have praised Iran recently. Why should we send weapons to the opposition? Iran does acknowledge however in sending, what it calls political, moral and humanitarian support to Hamas and Hezbollah. (Radio Free Europe, June 27, 2007)
Nicholas Burns, Under-Secretary of State for Political Affairs has said, "the United States has irrefutable evidence" that Iran is using its Revolutionary Guard to arm the Taliban.
Iran has relations with Islamic Terrorist Thugs of Hamas and Hezbollah and is manipulating affairs in the entire region for its own purposes. There is an Iranian roll in Gaza and in Lebanon and very recently, Israel Air Force destroyed a weapons shipment in Syria of materials being sent to Hezbollah.
The Iranian Government has blocked access to Google and g-mail according to Mehr News Agency as the government of Iran has further clamped down on material that the Mullahs deem offensive.
Iran has banned thousands of web sites which support Women's Rights, Blogs containing politically offensive materials including social net-working sites.
The filtering is to prevent decadent materials from being seen, eerily similar to what Reverend Jim Sutter the self-anointed guru protector of Islam has done in the United States. The CAIR apologist has encouraged his faithful to flag sites which he deems objectionable, such as Townhall, Jihad Watch and Hot Air which Reverend Jim Sutter has determined in his infinite wisdom to be Hate Sites. (JAWA Report---July 08, 2007)
On August 27, 2007 at Sutter's "Hatewatch Hall of Shame" blog, Sutter labeled me a "...hate monger." On August 10, 2007 Sutter accused me of writing for a Hate Site---Townhall
Islamic religious zealots and their apologists are like Nazi's who fear freedom of speech and suppress the free expression and exchange of ideas in order to stifle dissenting viewpoints.
Democratic fundraiser Norman Hsu who has raised hundred of thousands of dollars for Democrats treated Senator Hillary Clinton aides, to several days last year at the posh Mandlay Bay Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Hillary Clinton's staffrers Patti Solis Davis head of the Clinton Presidential Campaign also received show tickets and expensive dinners all compliments of now incarcerated Norman Hsu.
Norman Hsu has likewise spread around money to University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service with donations of $75,000.00 and likewise donated $30,000.00 to Clinton Global Initiative.
Since 2004 Norman Hsu has donated $260,000.00 to Democrats such as U.S. Senator's Barack Obama, Ted Kennedy, Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein and was regarded by the Democratic National Committee as a top party fundraiser.
In 1991 Norman Hsu was indicted for defrauding investors in a scheme to sell latex gloves, Hsu entered a plea of no contest to a charge of Grand Theft and was sentenced to 3 years in prison before disappearing, subsequently raising money for Democrats. Hsu is presently under investigation by the FBI for allegedly paying straw donors to send cash to Hillary Clinton and other Democratic candidates.
Israel Air Force continues surveillance flights over the skies of Lebanon following the cease fire to prevent smuggling of weapons to Hezbollah.
Hezbollah is a terrorist group and follows the Shia ideology developed by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran.
Iranian News reported that Israel breached Lebanon air space over Kafr Kalla, Shakla and Hermel and claimed Israel flights are a violation of UN Resolution 1701. The resolution had called for the disarming of all Islamic militants in Lebanon.
Hezbollah receives weapons, training and financial assistance from Iran and from it's inception to the present calls for the destruction of Israel.
A joint 3 day operation nets 80
Al-Qaeda Terrorists killing three of them in Iraq.
The raids took place in the Hamrin Ridge and Diyala River Valley areas ending yesterday.
During the operation, Al-Qaeda fighters attacked U.S. and Iraqi forces with small arms and machine gun fire. U.S. Special Forces called in air strikes which resulted in 1 Al-Qaeda fighter being killed before the remaining surrendered.
U.S. Special Forces seized 40 AK-47 assault rifles and ammunition, more than 1,000 Iraqi forces took part in the operation. Many of the Al-Qaeda forces are believed to have implanted road side bombs according to the U.S. Military.
Despite 6 years of promises the Saudi Arabia government has failed to crackdown and pursue wealthy contributors to Al-Qaeda. Yasin al Qadi a wealthy Saudi businessman named by the United States and U.N. lists as a financier one month following the 9/11 attacks are among those identified as donors, he remains free and is a prominent figure in Saudi Arabia.
A Islamic extremist group called Hell Teams broke into a Israel Likud Party website and replaced the sites Homepage with the Muslim group logo and the words You are killing the Palestinians and we are killing your servers in Hebrew.
Writing in Arabic and poor English the group sacrificed the hacking to Muslim children---the page was then signed by the hacker using the name Cold Zero.
Israeli websites have been hacked before, sites belonging to large companies including the United Nations official website have been hacked, where anti-Israel messages were implanted.
On Monday, Iran's top nuclear negotiator reported that "...Iran will not stop its nuclear enrichment program..." said Ali Larijani
German Government officials have now announced that they will not support new sanctions against Iran, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said that future sanctions against Iran were useless, leaving the White House to develop scenarios for military action.
Iran announced the development of a guided smart bomb that may be used against its enemies.
Secretary of State Condolezza Rice has said, "...America faces no greater threat from a single country than from Iran..."
Iranian General Yayha Rahim Safavi, has said, "...we have produced a missile capable of striking any place in Israel. The Iran Republic News Agency quoted President Ahmadinejad who made another apocalyptic claim saying, "...the world is about to experience a great upheaval and all nations will soon turn towards Islam...there is no truth on earth but monotheism and following tenants of Islam over mankind."
The continued rhetoric by Iranian military and political leaders is further proof that Iran is striving to create a world based on Islam. This would ultimately require the destruction of both the United States and Israel which would have to occur first.
As military tensions continue to escalate, Israel is seeing an increased number of rocket attacks against Israel Defense Force (IDF) on Tuesday, 69 IDF Soldiers were wounded after Islamic Terrorist Thugs launched a Qassam Rocket into Israel landing in a military base. (Israel Hasbara Committee, Sept. 11, 2007)
Alameda County Superior Court Judge Richard Keller, denied a request by Attys for U.C. Berkley today, to oust the Tree Huggers high up in their perches despite their collection of propane tanks---a fire hazard especially in CA and the increasing number of urine and excrement spills from the Tree Huggers buckets.
Nine months ago, the university wanted to clear part of the park for a sports training facility when the Tree Huggers decided to instead move in.
Affad Shaikh, Civil Rights Coordinator for Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) in Anaheim, CA on his own Blog links to an anti-Semitic Blog.
See: This American Muslim----http://affadshaikh.blogspot.com/
CAIR California, claims "...was established to promote a positive image of Islam and Muslims in America..."
Shaikh writing in his web blog, refers to various political and media figures as "Extremist Right Wing Nut Cases" making the list: Senator Joe Lieberman, V.P. Dick Cheney, FOX News Bill O'Reiley and Sean Hannity, to name several.
Shaikh has said that Jews are Nazi's and stated that Rep. Jane Harmon (D-CA) is a pocket protector of American Israel Public Affairs Committee---AIPAC
Americans Against Hate Chairman Joe Kaufman said, "...the atrocious behavior of CAIR's Affad Shaikh should send a message to the media that CAIR is not a group to be dealt with on a cordial basis. In spite of the groups well known ties to terrorism, CAIR's rhetoric should be viewed as unacceptable by any journalistic standard."
Additional information about Affad Shaikh may be found at: http://www.americansagainsthate.org/cw/
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) have blasted a NYC Police Dept. report suggesting that young Muslims are vulnerable in being recruited by terrorists.
According to Dr.Vamik Volkan, M.D. a professor of Psychiatry of the University of Virgina, "most suicide bombers in the middle east are chosen as teenagers, educated and then sent off to perform their duty when they are in their late teens or early twenties...once recruited children are encouraged to cut off ties with the real world affairs and are subjected to an intense program of memorization and repetition of the Qu'ran...their readings are carefully selected, their Teachers also supply sacred sounding but meaningless phrases to be repeated over and over in chant..."
What is it that CAIR is crying about now? CAIR and all the other apologists for Islamic terrorism prefer propaganda over reality. Of course all 19 Islamic Fascist Terrorist Thugs that were responsible for hijacking airplanes and crashing them into buildings were likewise young and indoctrinated Muslim men. The 90 page report delivered to the White House, CIA & FBI suggested that Muslims between the ages of 15-35 are particularly vulnerable to radicalization.
Parvez Ahmed, CAIR Chairman claimed, "...the report made a sweeping generalization..."
In a Pew Research Center Poll of American Muslims, 21% claimed that suicide bombings were justified and 5% said they were rarely justified.
Chuck Missler, a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, a Conservative author and bible teacher, addressed the College Republicans of North Idaho College in 2005 and said that, "...Islam is a religion of world domination committed to the death of Christians and Jews...Muslims claim Islam is a religion of peace, that's nonsense, the Qu'ran is a warriors code for world conquest..."
CAIR called Chuck Missler's address to the Idaho College Republican's Organization---Incitement in an Action Alert, Dec. 02, 2005
It is a wonder that CAIR didn't attempt to stifle free speech by threatening to file another law suit as they did when Robert Spencer, was invited to address the Young Americas Foundation conference in Washington in August---I wrote about CAIR's attempt to silence free speech on August 2, 2007 "CAIR Attorney Intimidates and Harass YAF"
Al-Qaeda has again, invited Americans to Convert or Die---In a new video released yesterday, Osama bin-Laden called on young Muslims to follow the example of the 9/11 hijackers in martyring themselves in attacks against the United States.
A peaceful religion ?
Cough--cough, Right
Rep. Dennis Kucinich and Democratic Presidential candidate, an outspoken critic of the war in Iraq said during an interview on Syrian Television, "...we must pay for reparations to Iraq for the people of Iraq, for the great human tragedy caused..." (WEWS News, Cleveland, Ohio 9-11-2007)
In a meeting with Syrian President Assad, Dennis Kucinich said, "...I believe that Syria can play a constructive and important roll in achieving peace in Iraq..."
Last week, Israel Air Force jets destroyed a convoy of weapons in Syria that were to be delivered to Lebanon's Hezbollah Terrorists. Syria has likewise entered into a military alliance with Iran.
Iranian President Ahmadinejad has repeatedly called for the destruction of Israel and has said, "Like it or not the Zionist regime is heading towards annihilation...the Zionist regime is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm." (The Sydney Morning Herald, April 15, 2006)
Mossad believes that Syria and Iran are acquiring nuclear materials from North Korea During a reconnaissance flight over Syria, the Israel Air Force has taken pictures of a possible nuclear facility in Syria.
Israel Air Force has been accused by Syria of violating its airspace last week.
The Bush Administration has confirmed that the Israel Air Force fired on at least one target inside of Syria last week.
Israel and U.S. officials have charged that Iran and Syria are sending weapons to Hezbollah Terrorists in violation of the United Nations resolution which ended last summer's war between Israel and Hezbollah.
Mossad believes that N. Korea may be selling nuclear material to both Iran and Syria. During a reconnaissance flight over Syria, the Israel Air Force has photographed a possible nuclear facility inside of Syria.
The Syrian Government has of course denied that Islamic Terrorists were expecting to receive a weapons shipment and this week lodged a complaint against Israel for a flagrant violation of its airspace in clear and brazen defiance of international law.
Concerned over terrorist attacks in Israel during the holidays, Israel has raised it's state of alert to the highest level and have imposed a complete closure on the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The IDF were reporting today, that it has received at least 8 specific warnings of potential terrorist attacks to be launched against Israel.
Jews from around the world will celebrate the New Year tonight at sundown, the holiday is a time for self observation and will be followed in 10 days by Yom Kippur the day of Atonement.
"L'shanah tovah tikatevi v'taihatemi."
May you be inscribed and sealed for a good year.
Quirky Apologists for CAIR have conditioned themselves to immediately lash out against anyone who may challenge their Islamists propaganda, unable to manufacture a valid argument in defense of their position, they soon begin babbling about victimhood.
CAIR's victim mentality resonates with American Muslims as CAIR apologists actively solicit Victim's of perceived hate mongering, public harassment, airport profiling or loathsome stares. Encouraging victimhood increases the apologists perceived influence. Victim's need a voice for their own protection and of course are encouraged to run to CAIR or other sites that hold themselves out to be the watch bearers against injustices.
One such example is Hatewatch Hall of Shame, the apologist for CAIR, claiming to be the champion for Victims that may have suffered pain as a result of online hate speech, hate mongering, discrimination, bigotry or bias. Calling all Victims, please forward an e-mail to the Reverend Jim Sutter and send him a full report of your perceived injustices and bigotry.
What good will it do? Likely nothing but the perceived Victim will be able to vent their frustrations to a sympathetic ear who promises to "...provide this information to help the public understand who we are dealing with..." spotlighting the hate mongers and racists. (Translation--to republish real or imagined claims of bigotry and racism)
Who are the hate mongers and racists? I have been accused of hate mongering and racism because I write at Townhall which according to Reverend Jim Sutter, is an identified Hate Site (Bigots Desperately Seek Distraction, Hatewatch Hall of Shame--Aug. 10, 2007)
Likewise Michelle Malkin & Robert Spencer were identified by name in Reverend Jim Sutter's Hatewatch Hall of Shame site which purports to be "exposing, exploring, educating and eliminating hatred and extremism in all forms." (Update on Raising Money for Free Attorneys--Sept. 03, 2007)
It is quite remarkable that whoever challenges an apologist claims, one is quickly labeled as being a Dreg by the self proclaimed champion of civil liberties, promoter of equal rights, defender of truth and keeper of the flame.
Reverend Jim Sutter made new allegations about Robert Spencer along with Pastor Ernie Sanders (The Spencer-Sanders Comedy Show, Hatewatch Hall of Shame, Sept. 04, 2007)
That morning, 19 Islamic Terrorist Thugs took to the skies and within a few hours 3,030 innocent people would be dead:
American Airlines #11 which crashed into the North Tower 92 perished; American Airlines #77 which crashed into the Pentagon 64 perished;
United Airlines #175 which crashed into the South Tower 65 perished; United Airlines #93 that crashed in Shanksville, PA 40 perished.
At least 200 people jumped to their deaths to escape the inferno raging inside the Twin Towers.
343 NYC Firefighters died when the Towers fell and 75 Police Officers lives were cut short on that terrible day.
What a tragedy--there are no words adequate to describe what we witnessed on that terrible, terrible day.
After being held by the Iranian government for more than 100 days in solitary confinement, this 67 year old scholar of the Woodrow Wilson International Center returned to work today.
While being detained by the Iranian's, Dr. Esfandiari, forced herself to walk and exercise for several hours a day, blocking out thoughts of her family.
On May 8, Dr. Esfandiari was detained while visiting Tehran to see her Mother.
Iran accused Dr. Esfandiari of plotting to overthrow the tyrannical Islamic regime in a soft revolution. The U.S. State Department said that was absurd and demanded the immediate release of Dr. Esfandiari an American citizen. She was mainly questioned about her activities at the Washington Wilson Center, it appeared to Dr. Esfandiari that the Ahmadinejad regime believed that think tanks and foundations were instruments of the United States to carry out a revolution.
Holocaust Denier Iranian President Ahmadinejad and Venezuela's Marxist Leader Chavez will be in NYC the week of September 24, confirms United Nations officials.
On October 26, 2005 Fascist Ahmadinejad gave a speech in Tehran entitled World Without Zionism and said that Israel "must be wiped off the map."
In February representatives of American Christian denominations met with the Holocaust Denier resulting in a call from church leaders, for the United States and Iran to engage in open dialogue. In a joint statement by the National Council of Churches they said, "We traveled to the Islamic Republic of Iran...believing it is possible to build bridges of understanding between our two countries."
In Mennonite Life (December 2006, Vol. 61 No. 4) Tom Finger, who authored A Contemporary Anabaptist Theology claimed, "...Ahmadinejad talks far more like a preacher than a head of state...I heard Ahmadinejad explain his views in his own words...and never heard him deny the Holocaust...as for wiping Israel off the map, I think he means wiping the name Israel off literal maps..."
On September 05, I wrote here ADL: No Nuclear Iran, a list of quotes from Ahmadinehad himself, for example on June 03, 2007 the fascist leader of Iran said, "With God's help, the countdown button for the destruction of the Zionist regime has been pushed by the hands of the children of Lebanon and Palestine...By God's will we will witness the destruction of this regime in the near future."
On June 16, 2006 Ahmadinejad said, "...I think we have sufficiently talked about this matter and these Holocaust events need to be further investigated by independent and impartial parties."
While the Christian church leaders have convinced themselves that Ahmadinejad is their partner in peace, Ahmadinejad has instead said, "...Islam must prepare to rule the world...we must believe in the fact that Islam is not confined to geographical boarders, ethnic groups and nations. It's a universal ideology that leads the world to justice." (Iran Leader: Islam to Rule the World--World Net Daily, January 10, 2006)
Pictured here the IDF photo evidences a large cache of weapons and bomb making materials uncovered by a Paratroop IDF Brigade in Nablus.
The lab was destroyed by IDF. The nighttime raid, included the seizure of digital materials in 5 offices of the Daawa Foundation which is operated by HAMAS.
The Daawa Foundation serves as an HAMAS front which enables Islamic Terrorist Thugs, to transfer funds disguised as charity to the terrorist organization. This Shiite Terrorist front organization was formed in the late 1950's and rose in prominence in the 1970's when it waged an armed campaign against the Iraqi government. Daawa supported the Iran-Iraq war and is headquartered in Tehran.
Daawa has been declared illegal as it financially supports Islamic Suicide Bombers and other terrorists.
Last week The Columbus Dispatch published an Editorial Cartoon which CAIR found offensive. CAIR quickly mobilized its dwindling membership complaining about the cartoon.
Glenn Sheller, Editorial Page Editor said, "...CAIR claims the cartoon demeans all Iranians...it is clear the cartoon refers only to those elements of the Iranian regime that supports extremism...CAIR likens the cartoon to Nazi propaganda. This is a remarkable display of intellectual gymnastics. Iranian President Ahmadinejad has called for the destruction of the Jewish state and questions the Holocaust, while his regime tries to develop nuclear weapons. If CAIR is really truly concerned about Nazi ideas and the use of Nazi methods, it should direct its attention to Tehran...CAIR has misrepresented this cartoon and missed the mark by fabricating a false grievance."
CAIR would surely not come running to the rescue the apologist for HAMAS, the purveyor of Islamic Terrorist Thug propaganda. The unindicted co-conspirator in the terrorism financing case in Dallas, TX. The same organization that said that the two Egyptian students at the University of South Florida who were caught with pipe bombs near a South Carolina Navy Base "...were just naive kids with nothing but fireworks..." CAIR to the rescue.
Senator Joe Biden (D-DE) says that the "...President's war strategy is failing and the top military commander in Iraq is dead flat wrong..."
The success in Iraq is being greatly undermined by politics as our President continues to prosecute the War on Terrorism and the front line on propaganda being waged by Al-Qaeda has influenced the cut and run crowd to demand that troops be brought home.
In a letter to the military, General Petraeus said that "...there has been progress in Iraq..." Scheduled to testify before Congress on the eve of the anniversary of 9/11 Al-Qaeda is not just fighting over territory but continues to test our resolve to win. Should Al-Qaeda force a U.S. retreat, they will test American resolve elsewhere. The best recruitment tool Al-Qaeda has is the cut and run crowd.
The Democratic Leadership in Congress does not intend to win the war on terrorism but is planning on failure. Senator John Kerry (D-MA) is demanding a political reconciliation (negotiate) with Al-Qaeda.
Osama bin-Laden which demands that American's embrace Islam realizes that Al-Qaeda has true allies in the United States---the Democratic Leadership of defeatism.
U.S. Army Cpl. James Dyke, of Alpha Troop, 2nd Squadron, 1st Cavalry Regiment, 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, hands out toys to children in Khan Bani Sa'ad Iraq
U.S. Soldiers will often give toys to children that they see. Children that don't have very much appreciate the kindness that our Soldiers demonstrate every day.
Providing toys to children builds friendship and trust between U.S. Soldiers, children and their families and likewise provides Intelligence sources that help keep our Hero's safe.
You may help with toys for children in Iraq by visiting the Link Soldiers Angels
Fred Thompson made it official and formally announced his candidacy for President with confidence. Beginning with a five day trip today into Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina.
A Clemson University Palmetto Poll of likely voters, finds Republican's Thompson & Giuliani in a dead heat at 19% to 18% Clinton leads Democrat's and is ahead of Obama, 26% to 16%
While some grumbled that Mr. Thompson should not have waited until September to enter the race for President and other's complained that he should have appeared in last nights GOP Debate...Fred Thompson upstaged the Republican Debate on Tuesday.
Senator McCain and Mayor Giuliani argued who was more experienced. Romney criticized Rudy Giuliani who promised Police protection for illegal immigrants in 1994 Rudy Giuliani replied that he merely offered Police help to curb the soaring crime in NYC for everyone.
Mr. Romney was criticized for allowing illegal immigrants to work in his yard and that Mayor's in his state have offered sanctuary to illegal immigrants.
With the entry of Fred Thompson into the Presidential race during the traditional start of the primary season, Senator Thompson offers Republican's that are searching for an alternative a candidate with Conservative ideals, driven by commitment, firm convictions and values and won't simply play lip service to Republican principles.
Dr. James Kennedy, a Conservative Television Evangelist, passed away at his home in Florida at the age of 76 in December, he suffered a heart attack and has been undergoing therapy ever since.
From 1945 to meetings in a school cafeteria to building a church congregation of 10,000 the Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, Dr. Kennedy became a regular feature in many homes across the country with his messages during The Coral Ridge Hour.
In 1994 Dr. Kennedy launched the Center for Christian Statesmanship a Capitol Hill outreach ministry which offered bible studies to Members of Congress and their Staffers, presenting each new member a leather bound bible.
Dr. Kennedy is survived by his wife Anne of 51 years and a daughter Jennifer Cassidy.
Norman Hsu, raised more than $1 Million Dollars for Democrats, a major fund raiser for Hillary Clinton---San Mateo County Superior Court Judge has issued a Warrant for Hsu arrest for failing to appear in Court for a bail hearing on a 15 year old Grand Theft Judge.
Both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, have accepted campaign donations from Hsu, who is believed to have fled the country.
Barack Obama will benefit from a fund raising event tonight hosted by Alex Giannoulias, tainted by connections with organized crime. According to the New York Post, Giannoulias was a former chief loan officer at a bank when he approved loans to Michael Jaws Giorango, twice convicted of book making and promoting prostitution.
Yesterday Barack Obama, proposed Ethics Reform legislation expanding regulations on lobbyists to reduce the influence of special interest money in Washington.
Democratic Presidential hopefuls are ethically challenged when it comes to accepting campaign cash for themselves, while proposing regulations on others.
Iran's President Ahmadinejad anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, anti- USA views make him a clear threat to our peace and security and our best friend in the middle east Israel.
The Iran Counter Proliferation Act of 2007 (HR 1400 & S.970) strengthens U.S. tools to cut off funds to the fascist Iranian regime, calls for the arrest of Ahmadinejad and that he be brought before the International Court of Justice, for violating the Genocide Convention for his repeated calls for Israel's Destruction. Seen here, Ahmadinejad addressed 4,000 students in Tehran, saying that "...Israel must be wiped off the map."
Ahmadinejad in his own words has made virulent statements about Israel:
August 28, 2007 "...Zionists are people without a religion...they are lying about being Jewish because religion means brotherhood, friendship and respecting other divine religions...they are an organized minority that have infiltrated the world..."
August 18, 2007 "...the Zionist regime is the flag bearer of violation and occupation and this regime is the flag of Satan..."
June 03, 2007 "With God's help, the countdown button for the destruction of the Zionist regime has been pushed by the hands of the children of Lebanon and Palestine...By God's will we will witness the destruction of this regime in the near future..."
March 21, 2007 "It is quite clear that a bunch of Zionist racists are the problem the modern world is facing. They have access to global media centers and seek to use this access to keep the world in a state of hardship, poverty and grudge and strengthen their rule..."
February 28, 2007 "The Zionists are the true manifestation of Satan...Many Western governments that claim to be pioneers of democracy and standard bearers of human rights close their eyes over crimes committed by the Zionists and by remaining silent support the Zionists due to their hedonistic and materialistic tendencies..."
December 12, 2006 "Thanks to the peoples wishes and God's will, the trend for the existence of the Zionist regime is downwards and this is what God has promised and what all nations want...the Zionist regime soon will be wiped out..."
November 29, 2006 "What have the Zionists done for the American people that the U.S. Administration considers itself obliged to blindly support these infamous aggressors? Is it not that they have imposed themselves on a substantial portion of the banking, financial, cultural and media sectors?"
November 13, 2006 "Israel is destined for destruction and will soon disappear. Israel is a contradiction of nature, we foresee its rapid disappearance and destruction..."
October 19, 2006 "The Zionist regime is counterfeit and illegitimate and can not survive."
August 04, 2006 "A new middle east will prevail without the existence of Israel."
August 02, 2006 "Are they human beings...the Zionists are a group of blood thirsty savages putting all other criminals too shame..."
June 16, 2006 "I think we have sufficiently talked about this matter and these Holocaust events need to be further investigated by independent and impartial parties."
May 11, 2006 "Israel is a regime based on evil that can not continue and one day will vanish."
April 24, 2006 "We say that this fake regime cannot logically continue to live...Open the doors of Europe and let the Jews go back to their own countries."
April 14, 2006 "The Zionist regime is an injustice and by its very nature a permanent threat. Whether you like it or not, the Zionist regime is heading towards annihilation. The Zionist regime is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm."
October 26, 2005 "Israel must be wiped off the map...the establishment of the Zionist regime was a move by the world oppressor against the Islamic world...the skirmishes in the occupied land are part of the war of destiny. The outcome of hundreds of years of war will be defined in the Palestinian land."
