DIANA WEST: CHUCK HAGEL AND US FOREIGN POLICY

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/about-chuck-hagel-and-us-foreign-policy?f=puball Watching yesterday’s morning session of his Senate confirmation hearings on C-SPAN made me nothing if not uneasy. There are, I have to confess, aspects of Hagel’s foreign policy that intersect with my own beliefs: those that stem from his apparently sincere drive not to see US troops wasted in foreign interventions that have nothing […]

SHARI GOODMAN: A CALL FOR RESISTANCE

Vive la Resistance: A Call to Arms!

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/vive-la-resistance-a-call-to-arms

During World War II, in an effort to combat Nazi totalitariansm, men and women of good will in France formed a resistance movement against the Nazis. They came to be known as the Resistance fighters who bravely fought against the tide of the Nazi invasion. Today, once again there is a new growth of totalitarian supremacist ideology in the name of Islam and it is presently receiving protective status under the guise of religion; yet, today its legitamacy is derived on our own soil. The definition of “Islam” is submission and while we may state that we are not at war with Islam, Islam has declared war on us.

Mein Kampf (My Struggle) was the instrumental book that incited Germans to wage war against the Jews and incited millions in surrounding countries to submit to its supremacist totalitarian quest for world domination. Not unlike Mein Kampf, we now have on American soil an Islamic doctrine (Quran) that commands its practioners to wage war against all non-believers until Islam reigns supreme. “Slay the pagans(Christians) wherever ye find them and seize them, confine them, and lie in wait for them in every place of ambush” (Surah 9:5) and “So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world).” (Quran: 8:39) These are just a few of the many passages littered throughout Quranic doctrine with the call for Jihad. Unlike Judeo/Christian doctrine, the violence in Quranic doctrine is instructional violence without a specific time frame. Those of us in today’s Resistance Coalition have been referred to as Islamophobics, bigots, racists, and hatemongers, but in an upside down world it is we who are combatting the hate spewed by a doctrine that places all non-believers in what is referred to in Islam as Dar Al Harb (the House of War). Yes, the Quran segrated the world into Dar Al Islam (the House of Islam) and Dar Al Harb, reserved for all non-Muslims.

For the first time in American history we are providing a sanctuary to a doctrine that seeks our demise. The Quran which commands each Muslim to slay the unbelievers wherever they may find them is housed in every mosque. There are now over 2000 mosques funded by Saudi Arabian oil money throughout the United States. The colonization by the Umma (prosletyzation) is encouraged and financed by oil money and it matters not one iota that not all Muslims are Jihadists. It is a threat and affront to our existence and liberty that we give sanctuary to a dangerous doctrine that calls for our submission at best and slaughter at worst.

We in the West have been relatively safe from Islamic warfare by a distance that seperated us from its practioners. With the current influx of mass immigration from Islamic countries, we too will be impacted not only by Jihad, but a cultural degradation of women, homosexuals, Christians and Jews not unlike those that we witness throughout the globe wherever Muslims reside. If American campuses with active Muslim Brotherhood groups are a glimpse of the future, we only need to cast our eye on them to see how hostile they have become for Jewish students. We should expect nothing less for the general American population when their numbers become sufficiently large in cities throughout the country.

As an American, a Jew, and a woman I now feel threatened. The question I am often asked is how could we have let this happen? Where are our government officials? Where are our clegymen? Where is the media? Where are our intellectual elites and who is looking out for us? Why must we be subjected and expected to tolerate a political doctrine that calls for our demise?

ANDREW ROBERTS: SHAKESPEARE HAS A (PARKING) LOT TO ANSWER FOR…..SEE NOTE PLEASE

ANDREW ROBERT’S BOOK ” THE STORM OF WAR” IS ONE OF THE BEST HISTORIES OF WORLD WAR II…..PLEASE ALSO READ: Demystifying the Myths of War by RAEL JEAN ISAAC A REVIEW AND INTERVIEW OF “STORM OF WAR” BY ANDREW ROBERTS
http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.10965/pub_detail.asp

The news that the skeleton of King Richard III has been found under a parking lot in Leicester, a city 100 miles north of London, should finally end half a millennium of winters of discontent for the most maligned monarch in English history. It proves that it is never too late to save one’s reputation.

In William Shakespeare’s “Richard III,” the king is shown facilitating the deaths of King Henry VI and his son Prince Edward; of Richard’s brother George, Duke of Clarence (drowned in a butt of malmsey wine); of the Second Duke of Buckingham; of Richard’s own wife, Anne Neville; and especially of the Princes in the Tower of London, the 12-year-old King Edward V and his 9-year-old brother Richard, Duke of York. It is the greatest example of theatrical overkill since the Tarantino-like closing scenes of “Hamlet” and “Macbeth,” yet there is absolutely no evidence that Richard was guilty of any of it. Shakespeare even has Richard killing the Duke of Somerset at the battle of St. Albans, which took place when Richard was 2 years old.

DANIEL GREENFIELD: SPRINGTIME FOR ISLAM

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ Groundhog Day is the long eternal tragedy of Islam, which always sees its shadow and always ends up with six weeks, six months or six hundred years of more winter. That hopeful time when the bitter cold of winter begins its slow transition into the warmth and renewal of spring never comes for Islam. […]

LARS HEDEGAARD SURVIVES ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT!!!!

BREAKING: ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT, A SHOT AND MISFIRE AT ISLAM CRITIC LARS HEDEGAARD, ARAB PERPETRATOR SUSPECTED……..BREAKING:

UPDATE: The TT is told by someone close to Lars Hedegaard via email: “He is okay, but we’re all in shock. It’s a miracle he is alive. The attacker looked like an Arab.”

Henrik R.Clausen informs me that Lars just recently told him that he’ll under no circumstances lessen his criticism of Islam. “What was the truth yesterday remains truth today” – you can quote him for that.

IN MICHIGAN: PRESS I FOR ENGLISH, 2 FOR SPANISH AND 3 FOR ARABIC

from a friend…..
I actually called the Michigan Dept. of Human Services, and yes, option 3 is Arabic! I went to the web site for them in the link below and sure enough, on the right side of the page, there is an application for food assistance PDF file in English, Spanish and Arabic! I opened the file to see for myself and it’s there alright. Have we gone completely nuts!!?…”
Muslim men are allowed to have as many as 4 wives. Many Muslims have immigrated into the U.S. and brought their 2-3-or 4 wives with them, but the U.S. does not allow multi marriages, so the man lists one wife as his, and signs the other 2 or 3 up as extended family on welfare and other free Government programs!
So now in Michigan when you call the Public Assistance office you are told to “Press 1 for English. Press 2 for Spanish, or Press 3 for Arabic”! Here is the number 1-888-678-8914.
Try it and see for yourself. Every time you add a new language to an American program it requires an additional number of persons fluent in that language to process those persons who refuse to learn English in order to live here at an additional cost to the taxpayer! Why are we even allowing persons to immigrate here who cannot provide for themselves, and putting them in our welfare system? Press 3 for Arabic.
This is quite alarming!!! This seems to have happened clandestinely, for, as far as I know, no public announcement, or opportunity to vote on this was offered to the American people. They’re just adopting an official stance, and very likely using tax-payer money for it, in various capacities, without public knowledge or approval.
The following link takes you into the State of Michigan Public Assistance page, (as in Food Stamps etc). You won’t have to scroll far before you see the assistance-letters options for…(get this)…..English, Spanish, and ARABIC !!! When did the ARABIC option sneak into our culture? Will we soon have to listen to our governmental offices, stores, and other venues offer us the option of “pressing 3 for ARABIC?”
Check it out for yourself. http://www.michigan.gov/dhs/0,1607,7-124-5453_5527—,00.html

JACK ENGELHARD: ANTI-SEMITISM COMING TO A COLLEGE NEAR YOU

http://communities.washingtontimes.com/neighborhood/novelists-view-world/2013/feb/5/anti-semitism-coming-college-near-you/

WASHINGTON, DC, February 5, 2013 — Just when you thought it was safe to leave your son or daughter on campus, any campus, along comes the New York Post’s Andrea Peyser to report that later this week, Thursday, Brooklyn College is set to host an anti-Israel “hate fest” in the guise of a debate. Debate, in Liberal-speak means, “I talk, you listen.”

The fix is in.

Among the featured “debaters” is Omar Barghouti, who will surely press his case for a boycott against Israel at an event co-hosted by the college’s Political Science department. Academic freedom, as we keep learning, has now become a synonym for Israel-bashing.

Fans of anti-Semitism know Barghouti as a Qatari-born activist who founded the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel. His message is a mirror of tactics Hitler used a generation ago, introducing the genocide by means of a boycott against all Jewish goods and services.

Here’s the crazy part: Barghouti is going for his Masters degree in Philosophy at – Tel Aviv University. That’s right, an Israeli academic institution.

As we say around here when it comes to absurdity: “Never mind. It’s too complicated.”

On the plus side, from an education in an Israeli university, Barghouti may get a chance to do his cause some good, not just for himself but all around. In the fields of medicine, economics, physics, peace and literature, Muslims – 20 percent of the world’s population –have won 10 Nobel Prizes. Jews, with a world population of 0.2 percent, have won 181.

Personally, I am in favor of boycotting Jewish services as long as it is done right, which means everything. For all anti-Semites out there I recommend an immediate halt to the Salk polio vaccine and if it is syphilis you get, syphilis you keep, without the benefit of Dr. Paul Ehrlich’s “magic bullet” and the first effective treatment against the disease. Like Salk, he was Jewish, after all.

Our campuses, some may have noticed, have become a melting pot for anti-Semites, obviously to rouse up a generation of Hitler Youth. Get them while they’re young. So my concern is that this wildfire of anti-Semitism, from Europe and elsewhere, may yet spread out to the United States, if it hasn’t done so already.

I appreciate Europe for sending us Beethoven, but please, keep your Holocausts. Been there, done that!

PRESIDENT OBAMA WILL VISIT ISRAEL AND THE “WEST BANK”….FASTEN YOUR SEATBELTS

By Lesley Clark | McClatchy Newspapers

http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2013/02/05/182103/obama-to-visit-israel-and-the.html

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama will travel to Israel, the West Bank and Jordan this spring, the White House said Tuesday, amid signs the administration is interested in revisiting stalled Middle East peace talks.

The trip would be Obama’s first visit to Israel as president; he traveled there and to the West Bank as a presidential candidate in July 2008.

It comes as he and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu both embark on new terms in office, amid renewed turbulence in the Middle East, and represents an opportunity to forge a different relationship. White House officials said Obama discussed the potential trip when he called Netanyahu on Jan. 28 to congratulate him on the Israeli election.

“The start of the president’s second term and the formation of a new Israeli government offer the opportunity to reaffirm the deep and enduring bonds between the United States and Israel and to discuss the way forward on a broad range of issues of mutual concern, including Iran and Syria,” said Tommy Vietor, the White House spokesman for the National Security Council.

No date for the trip has been announced, though Israeli press reported that Obama would arrive on March 20.

The president also will travel to the West Bank and Jordan “to continue his close work with Palestinian Authority officials and Jordanian officials on bilateral and regional issues of mutual interest,” White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said.

JANET LEVY: A VIDEO FROM A CAMPUS GROUP “ALLIES FOR ISRAEL”

The 12 minute video below (start at about 1:25, after the trumpet player), features 19 year old Chloe Valdary, a black Christian University of New Orleans sophomore who explains the antisemitism that hides behind false claims of apartheid against the Jewish state.

This young woman states the problem more honestly and eloquently than any rabbi I have ever heard!

Ms. Valdary created a campus-based group “Allies for Israel,” which is made up of both Jews and non-Jews. The group endeavors to fight BDS (boycott, divestment and sanctions) actions against Israel, anti-Israel sentiment and anti-semitism on campus.
