National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) which first exposed Iran's Nuclear program in 2002 says the National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) is incomplete.
The NCRI has said that while they do agree that Iran suspended activities in 2003 they only did so to close down a weapons site in Lavisan fearing that it may be detected, transferring the weapons programs to 2 other sites in Lavisan.
Iranian President Ahmadinejad yesterday claims that "...the NIE amounted to a declaration of surrender..." by Washington.
The NCRI said that Iran restarted its weapons program in 2004---the Iran Revolutionary Guard Corps initiated and led Iran's nuclear program and said that it has identified 21 senior nuclear physicists at NCRI Imam Hossein University as Commanders and Cadres of the Revolutionary Guard, "...anytime you have the military involved with the nuclear program, we are talking about the bomb..."
NCRI says that its sources for the intelligence is from High Ranking Iranian Officials, Military Officers and the Revolutionary Guard as well as from individuals working in the new Lavisan facilities.
John Bolton former Ambassador to the United Nations says, "...the current NIE freely admits to having only moderate confidence that the suspension continues and says that there are significant gaps in our intelligence and that our analysts dissent from their initial judgment on suspension...the NIE opens the way for Iran to achieve its military nuclear ambitions in an essentially unmolested fashion, to the detriment of us all."
U.S. House of Representative's Members Connie Mack, R-FL & Mary Bono, R-CA were married yesterday in a private ceremony in North Carolina, making them only the third couple in history to wed as sitting Members of Congress.
The couple were engaged in August while on a camping trip in Arches National Park in Utah and had been dating for 2 years.
Congratulations & Best Wishes go out to the Newlyweds.
It is a matter of history that when Supreme Allied Commander General Dwight D. Eisenhower found the victims of the Nazi Death Camps, he Ordered all possible photographs to be taken and for the German people from the surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made them bury the dead.
General Eisenhower did this because he said in words to the effect, "...Get it all on record now...get the films...get the Witnesses because somewhere down the track of history some Bastard will get up and say this this never happened."
The United Kingdom has removed the Holocaust from its schools curriculum because it offended the Muslim population which says it never occurred. This is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving into it.
It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended...I received this mail as a Memorial Chain in memory of the:
6 Million Jews, 20 Million Russians, 10 Million Christians and 1,900 Catholic Priests that were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved and humiliated while the German people looked the other way.
Now more than ever, with Ahmadinejad, the Fascist President of Iran along with others, claiming that the Holocaust is a myth, it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.
This message is to reach 40 Million people world wide---please be a Link to the Memorial Chain and help distribute this around the world. It will only take a minute to pass this along.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men and women to do nothing.
This message was sent to me by Arvie Maynard, a Minister in Huntington, WV.
Army Sgt. Gregory Williams---1st Stryker Brigade who saved the life of his Platoon Leader was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross by Army Chief of Staff, General George W. Casey, Jr.
Although injured, Sgt. Williams pulled his Lieutenant from a smoldering combat vehicle, provided suppressive fire with a 50 caliber weapon and enabled first aid to be given to other Soldiers burned by the IED blast. During a mounted night patrol on October 30, 2006 Sgt. Williams Stryker combat vehicle was struck by an IED that sent a stream of molten fire into their vehicle. As the vehicle and its occupants caught fire, enemy forces unleashed an ambush of rocket propelled grenades and AK-47 rounds.
After Medics arrived to assess Sgt. Williams injuries, it was discovered that he could not hear and he felt that everything was spinning, he suffered burns and two punctured eardrums which required surgery. Sgt. Wilson was credited as the person in the heat of the moment did what he needed to do despite his own injuries.
Sgt. Williams believes that everyone in his squad would have done the same thing that day and credits them as Heroes in their own right.
The Director of a national charity for veterans Roger Chapin has refused to testify before a Congressional Committee and has evaded attempts by the U.S. Marshall Service that is actively looking for him.
Serious allegations have arisen against Chapin, head of the California based charity Help Hospitalized Veterans which raised more than $98 Million dollars in 2006 including the payment of exorbitant salaries to both him and his wife, using donations to pay for questionable expenses such as new condos, moving funds amongst several groups to skew reporting numbers, to concealing millions of dollars in payments for fund raising corporations. Henry Waxman, D-CA whose Congressional Committee is investigation the charity said, "...a disturbing number of groups are raising millions of dollars in the names of charity but keeping most of the donations for themselves...intolerable fraud...a sickening betrayal of our most fundamental values."
Roger Chapin a graduate of Middlebury College in Vermont in 1990 he founded the the special G.I. Gift Pac Program which has distributed 880,000 gift packs to American Troops stationed in the Persian Gulf.
A successful real estate developer in San Diego County, Chapin is married, his wife Elizabeth and him have 4 children and 2 grandchildren.
Henry Waxman read a letter from former Sen. Robert Dole, R-KS which called groups such as the one in which Chapin is involved "parasites" Senator Dole wrote, "...I can not imagine anyone or any group, stooping so low to enrich themselves by exploiting veterans misery." Waxman's Committee will hold another Congressional Hearing on January 17 and has issued a new subpoena for Roger Chapin to appear.
In all more than 80 MLB finest athletes have been named in the Mitchell Report, NY Yankees led the field with 22 names as NY Mets had 17 names on the list of current and former players.
Widespread use of performance enhancing drugs puts into question the validity of baseball records. Barry Bonds who holds the MLB Record with 762 Home Runs has been indicted by a federal grand jury for Perjury and Obstruction of Justice. Currently Bonds remains free after pleading Not Guilty to the charges on December 7
One of the 7 men accused of plotting with Al-Qaeda to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago was acquitted and a mis-trial was declared for the other 6 Defendants after a federal jury dead locked. Assistant U.S. Atty Richard Gregorie said that the DoJ will retry the other 6 in 2008
The phony Navy Seal Reverend Jim Sutter writes at his Hatewatch Hall of Shame site, "Another Terrorism Case Falls Apart"
One would think that the Reverend Jim Sutter who wears his patriotism on the back of his pants for all to see as he waddles by would try not sounding so gleeful but of course one should not expect too much from the CAIR apologist.
While federal prosecutors have failed to obtain convictions in some high profile criminal cases, it's important to review their entire record. Jeffrey Breinholt who led the prosecution for the DoJ said, "...you can not judge the continued viability of an enforcement strategy on an anecdotal case...it took us 3 times to finally get John Gotti and few people today argue that it was not worth it...the most recent was the Holy Land Foundation Trial, was actually the third HLF related case...the government won each of the first two cases and did so handily... consider that despite what the media claims whenever the government suffers a set back or less than satisfying victory in a terrorist finance case that we still win about ten times more than we lose. The number of people convicted of providing material support, either by jury trial or guilty pleas is over 1000% of those who are acquitted. Yes those persons convicted include Sami-al-Arian. That should give pause to those who claim that we need to think about some major calibration in our terrorist financing strategy..."
Between 9/11 and last July, the DoJ completed 68 of 108 prosecutions involving material support, resulting in 9 convictions, 30 guilty pleas and 11 guilty pleas on other related charges.
Following the U.S. Intelligence Assessment last week that Iran essentially halted its nuclear weapons programs in 2003 Israel Intelligence believes that the report is simply dead wrong but how does one prove this without being accused of attempting to push the United States into war?
Mossad continues to believe that Iran is continuing to pursue nuclear weapons and believes that Iran will obtain a nuclear weapon by 2009 or 2010
In questioning the U.S. Intelligence Assessment, Mossad point to three indisputable facts: (1) in defiance of the international community Iran continues to enrich uranium; (2) Iran has an advanced missile program that it continues to develop; (3) Iran could quickly reactivate it's military program---if it has indeed been stopped? Producing a bomb in a relatively short time span.
"Iran can stop on the edge of the project to weaponize and decide to proceed at anytime." said Former Mossad Chief Ephraim Halevy
Mossad believes in it's own assessment of the Iranian program. Tehran could have easily shifted its nuclear program underground without being detected, even if it did not, it does not matter because the transition from an advanced civilian program to a military program is relatively simple and brief.
Israel can not afford to make any errors as it is within range of Iranian missiles. Some people argue in Israel that the United States can not be reliable when facing major security threats and the Intelligence Assessment is an attempt to tie the hands of the President while others see it as a way to back down from an unpopular military action against the fascist government of Iran.
The tragic death of 16 year old Aqsa Parvez from Mississauga, Ontario at the hands of her father who strangled her and her brother now charged with obstruction as he attempted to cover up the Honor Killing is raising concerns with our neighbors to the north that Islam is not a religion of peace but is instead rooted in medieval ethos that treats all women as non-persons unable to make decisions for themselves.
A Montreal Mosque recently posted a warning on its web site that if young girls took off their Hijab, they could be Raped and have illegitimate children. National Post.com December 12, 2007
Friends of the 11th grade Aqsa said that the teenager just wanted to be herself. School officials described the teenager as "...energetic and well liked." A memorial was set up in the school's main foyer and the flag in front of the school lowered in memory of the tragic loss of the young woman.
Disturbing news accounts that 270 Christian Ministers were rounded up and detained in China in the eastern Shandong Province, last week.
China Aid Association cited eye witness accounts that Police arrived at a bible study in Linyi in 12 vehicles, handcuffed Ministers and led that away. Those at the meetings were pastors of House Churches and up to 150 Ministers remain in detention. Other were released after paying 295 Yuan--about $40.00 USD Interrogation Fee.
As China prepares for next years Olympics persecution of Christians is very disturbing. Tony Perkins, President of the Family Research Council said of the reports, "...while the regime tries to project itself as progressive, the reality is that China has no intention by abiding by international law or abandoning its hostility to Western religious ideals....the arrests could have sweeping repercussions for the massive PR campaign underway to legitimize next years Olympic hosts."
Democrats took control of both Houses of Congress this year and expected their triumph would guarantee them a victory in next years Presidential race but now the Democrats who can't govern have begun blaming themselves for their poor performance.
Rep. Charles Rangel, D-NY has accused his Leadership in Congress of developing the Stockholm Syndrome for the mess that his party has made of their ambitious agenda just 12 months ago. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-NV has taken to the Senate Floor criticizing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-CA "iron-hand style of governance"
House Appropriations Chairman, David Obey, D-WI tells Roll Call, a newspaper that covers Congress, that the Democrats are selling out as Senate Democrats fire back at the statement accusing the House of sending over legislation that can never pass.
As the Democrats blame each other in the present day Do Nothing Congress, on the campaign trail a top Hillary Clinton Campaign Official in New Hampshire has raised Barack Obama's admission of past drug use as an obstacle for Democrats in next years general election---of course when Bill Clinton admitted that he experimented with marijuana "...but never inhaled..." Clinton campaign staffers wanted the voters to over look Bill Clinton's indiscretions.
Senator Barack Obama frequently has criticized colleague Hillary Clinton for not having enough confidence in the American people in 1993 when she attempted to develop a national health care plan behind closed doors.
During every Presidential Campaign the media seems to fall all over themselves when a fresh face emerges during the campaign this year its Barack Obama, these candidates though don't win elections, Gary Hart, Paul Tsongas, John Anderson and Geraldine Ferraro could not rally Women to support Walter Mondale who was defeated in a landslide in 1984 Voters want to elect someone that agrees with them.
Democrats that can't govern their own Houses of Congress now are trying hard to convince the American people that if elected to the White House they somehow will miraculously be able to prove themselves effective.
Two Youth With A Mission, YWAM missionaries were murdered in Colorado over the weekend----YWAM is an international movement of Christians that dedicate their lives presenting Jesus Christ to others.
A very good friend of mine is active with YWAM in Australia---I have a permanent link displayed for this fine organization. I have been personally touched by the kindness, compassion, good nature and sincerity of my Mate in Australia who I look forward in chatting with once a week. My friend continues to always encourage and challenges me and I am inspired by her love for others and personal devotion to her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Tiffany Johnson 26 from Minnesota and Phillip Crouse 24 from Alaska, lived at the Arvada Camp at the YWAM mountain campus in Golden, Colorado.
YWAM was founded in 1960 and now operates in more than 1,000 locations in 149 countries and teaches that the bible is the inspired word of God, that mankind is created in the image of God and that the only way for salvation is the free gift of Jesus Christ who became a living sacrificial lamb when He died on the cross at Cavalry.
The loss of these two innocent victims is a reminder of the sacrifices that each of the dedicated YWAM Disciples make daily in their ministry to others, their love for the Gospel, their devotion to God and His commandment, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature." Mark 16:15
San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom who has endorsed Democratic front runner Hillary Clinton will join the Senator on Tuesday during a campaign stop.
The pro-gun control Mayor and co-national chair for the Clinton campaign, last month signed a bill in San Francisco which allows for undocumented aliens to receive I.D. cards in San Francisco, helping to symbolize why Hillary Clinton is out of touch with the electorate.
California's Presidential Primary is less than 2 months away on February 5 and Gavin Newsom represents what is wrong with secularism and liberalism in America. Bill O'Reilly of FOX News, has repeatedly blasted the San Francisco Mayor as the leader of a city in recent months has made national headlines for considering a proposal to ban the U.S. Navy's Blue Angels from flying overhead and kicking out the JRROTC programs in public schools.
Luis Vizcaino spokesman for the Clinton California Campaign says of Gavin Newsom, "...he is the Mayor of a very large city and we are grateful for the amount of time that he has been able to dedicate to the campaign.." Newsom's biggest claim to fame is his support for gay marriages and presiding over gay marriages in San Fransisco's City Hall despite a federal ban on same-sex marriages. Municipal corruption and ineptitude continue to flourish in the City by the Bay.
The News is Good in Iraq---the Troop surge is working and Tim Russert former Chief of Staff to the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-NY and now of MSNBC concedes that the better the News, the less news coverage it gets from the media.
A study conducted last week showed that the 3 networks ABC, CBS & NBC run 68 stories about Iraq in November compared to 178 in September with only 11 from the war zone.
Oprah Winfrey seen here opening her South African Academy for Girls says that she intends to clean house amid allegations that the Matron at her school has been accused of abusing children. Tiny Virginia Makopo has entered a plea of not-guilty on 13 charges of indecent assault and criminal injury against 6 children.
On Sunday in South Carolina, thousands of people stood in line for hours as Oprah Winfrey continues to campaign for Democratic Presidential hopeful Barack Obama. A recent AP Pew Research Poll shows that Hillary Clinton continues to lead Barack Obama in South Carolina with 45% to 31%
Oprah Winfrey who had promised to protect the children of her South African School as Momma Bear has acknowledged that she was made aware of allegations of sexual assault at her school on October 15, by it's Chief Executive John Samuel. Oprah Winfrey has said that the academy's Head Mistress Contract will not be renewed and others will be dismissed.
IDF Soldiers light Chanukah candles to commemorate the annual festival---the Maccabees Hero's stood up against Hellenist cultural pressures and Jewish assimilations allied with the Greeks winning a Civil War, returning they rededicated a desecrated temple and the small amount of oil they had for the menorah lasted 8 days a miracle and a sign by G-d of approval and return of miracles to Jerusalem.
The IDF Chief of Staff related his memories as a young solidier taking part in a secret operation assisting the Aliyah of the Jews from Ethiopia and reflected on the heroism of today's IDF Soldiers which is no less than that of Maccabees.
Picture on the left in a red beret is IDF Chief Rabbi Avi Ronsky, to the right of him is IDF Chief of Staff Lt. General Gabi Ashkenazi.
With the introduction of the first HPV vaccine, the dream of eliminating cervical cancer is increasingly within reach. Cervical cancer is the only type of cancer for which there is one specific cause---certain high risk types human papaillomavirus is very common, sexually transmitted virus that normally doesn't cause any problem in some Women, the infection stays active longer to cause abnormal cells to form which can develop into cervical cancer. With the HPV test, Women at high risk can now be identified and monitored carefully. The new Gardasil Vaccine allows many HPV infections to now be prevented.
As a Mother of five and wife of 18 years, Jodi McKinney was always on the go because of a history of cancer in her family, she made certain to have her regular check-ups which included her regular Ob/Gyn appointment no matter how busy she may have been. For 19 years, Jodi always went in for a Pap Test and it was always fine and she never had any problems until recently.
In 2007 when Jodi visited her Gynecologist for her annual exam the Receptionist handed her a pamphlet that explained HPV was the cause for cervical cancer and now there is a test to detect it. Jodi had never heard of HPV before and so when it was time to see her Physician she inquired about the test and learned that it didn't take any longer than any other test.
Both Jodi and her Physician were surprised when the results were in, while Jodi learned that her Pap test was normal the HPV test showed that Jodi had the virus. Her Physician explained that many times the infection goes away on its own and there is nothing to worry about and she was scheduled an appointment to return in a few months.
When Jodi returned for her second appointment her Pap test came back normal but her HPV test was still positive and so the Physician could get a closer look at her cervix, the Physician gave Jodi a colposcopy exam and a biopsy which showed that Jodi had pre-cancerous cells.
The first thing that Jodi thought about were her children who needed her, so she said, the treatment must work. Jodi immediately scheduled a LEEP procedure to remove all the bad cells and was very relieved that her surgery went well and within a few weeks, Jodi returned to her normal everyday routine.
Jodi feels extremely fortunate that she was able to catch her cervical disease at an early stage and did not have to go through major surgeries and other treatments. Jodi is thankful that the Receptionist gave her a pamphlet that explained HPV without learning about it and having the test Jodi realizes that she likely would not have learned about her condition until maybe before it was too late.
It is important to talk with your family and friends about having their regular Ob/Gyn exams and having regular Pap and HPV tests performed---with the new vaccine Women may want to consider having that which is essential in the fight against cervical cancer.
The phony Navy Seal Reverend Jim Sutter author of Hatewatch Hall of Shame, who has claimed to have spent 26 years as a Super Secret Spy for U.S. Navy Counter Intelligence, when in fact he spent less than 8 months in the Navy---may have finally fallen over the edge with his latest claims to now be gathering sensitive Intelligence for the U.S. State Department against Jeanette Runyon a citizen of the United States.
Jeanette Runyon from NC. was detained by U.S. Consulate authorities in the Ukraine when she attempted to obtain a passport for a baby born of a surrogate Mother. Questions arose about documentation when Jeanette Runyon, wanted to leave the Ukraine back to her home in NC. On the 15 November, I wrote an article at Townhall about Jeanette Runyon, who while attempting to provide for a better life in the USA for a new born has now been placed under a microscope, as questions remain about certain documents Jeanette Runyon had for the child.
The phony Navy Seal, Super Secret Spy for U.S. Navy Counter Intelligence who has claimed to have likewise trained with Israel Defense Force, now believes himself to be a Super Secret Spy for the U.S. State Department, gathering Intelligence on American Citizens. The Reverend James Sutter disclosed his Intelligence Report at his Hatewatch Hall of Shame Blog that Jeanette Runyon is actually a Satanist who traveled all the way to the Ukraine to obtain a child for Satanic Rituals in the USA. The former Super Secret Spy for U.S. Navy Counter Intelligence gleaned this information how? Just like we may never know how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop----the world may never know where the Reverend James Sutter gleans his Super Secret Intelligence about USA citizens.
Of course this Super Snooper Intelligence Operative, likewise convinced himself that I am a student at the Fisher College of Business learning to write magazine ads...
The problem with gossip, innuendo and plain lying which the Reverend Jim Sutter has mastered creatively, is that without facts, this so called religious person is speculating---we all know that he is not some present day 007 Super Sleuth gathering Intelligence on American Citizens, that was a job that Major Frank Burns wanted on MASH---Intelligence Gatherer for Colonel Flagg.
The scriptures teach us repeatedly that we should not bear false witness against our neighbor (see: Exodus 23:1; Deuteronomy 5:20; Proverbs 6:16-19) truth has escaped the Reverend Jim Sutter for so long claiming to be a Super Spook for U.S. Intelligence that he may actually believe what he says is true? The fact is, the Reverend Jim Sutter does not know reality from his own make believe.
It may be that we should feel sadden that the Reverend James Sutter may actually believe himself to be the real life William J. Casey incarnate.
Sheriff's Deputies in Bay County, Florida arrested Robert L. Nikkel, following a tip from NCIS Agents.
Nikkel was accused by NCIS Agents for sending child pornography over the Internet---the suspect was charged with 9 counts of possessing images that depicts the sexual performance of a child and 9 counts of promoting the sexual performance of a child.
According to NCIS, Nikkel spent 3 months chatting on-line with what he thought was a Woman with children, he sent her pornographic images of children and had sexual conversations about children. The Woman turned out to be an undercover NCIS Agent.
Many Parents warn their children, never to talk with strangers but does your children really understand the dangers?
It may be upsetting for children to feel they live in a dangerous world and children may leave their guard down, it may be much more comforting for kids to follow some basic rules that Parents may teach their children without frightening them.
Avoid scaring your children---Talk about what is OK, Parents need to educate and remind children when they are with Mom & Dad it is OK for Kids to be polite when a stranger says Hello, how are you for the child to reply .
Reminding children that most people are generally Good but there are some people that are Bad and that they may want to hurt them---one way of knowing a Bad person is when someone offers them candy, money and says to go with them without telling their parents, babysitter or teacher. Bad people will often talk about secrets. Remind your children that there should be no secret that your kids can't tell you.
Roll Playing---Have a fun time with your child and play out some events that may occur should a Stranger ask:
Can you help me find my puppy?
Your Mommy told me to pick you up from school.
What is your child to do? Have a secret password that only you and your children know and teach your child to run away and know how to use 911 when they are in danger. Teach your child never to get into a vehicle with a Stranger and to kick, scream, yell fire, bite, scratch, throw rocks and avoid ever getting into a car with a Stranger.
By roll playing you will teach your children valuable lessons without frightening them, keeping the lines of communications open with your children, always listen compassionately to your children which provides you with a golden opportunity to reassure them and answer any questions they may have.
Children are most at risk being targeted by sexual predators by a person they may know and many predators lure children by offering them candy or giving them a gift---it is important to teach your children never to accept anything from someone, unless a parent says that it is all right.
Lastly always remind your children that they need to ask before going anywhere without permission, its not that you don't trust your children it is simply courteous to let others know where we are. Teach your Kids by example and you may say, "...I always call your Daddy whenever I am running late, need to stop at the store before I come home..." Demonstrating to your Kid's that it is very grown up to tell someone where you are, shows responsibility, builds trust and will demonstrate to your Kids that we do this out of respect, courtesy and our love for one another. This small act will also help keep your children safe.
