CAROLINE GLICK; A MIRACLE AND AN OUTRAGE IN WASHINGTON

http://www.jpost.com/LandedPages/PrintArticle.aspx?id=329351 If you happen to be in Washington, DC, between now and January, you can see a piece of Jewish history that was never supposed to see the light of day. The National Archives is now exhibiting restored holy books and communal documents that belonged to the Jewish community of Iraq. In 1940, the Iraqi […]

A MIRACLE AND AN OUTRAGE IN WASHINGTON: CAROLINE GLICK

http://www.jpost.com/LandedPages/PrintArticle.aspx?id=329351 Restoring the Iraqi Jewish archive to its Israeli owners would be tantamount to recognizing that the cause of the Arab world’s conflict with Israel is Arab anti-Semitism. If you happen to be in Washington, DC, between now and January, you can see a piece of Jewish history that was never supposed to see the […]

DANIEL GREENFIELD: MUSLIM SPEAKER “PROVES” THAT ISLAM DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE….BUT A YOUNG WOMAN AT THE OXFORD UNION DEBATE PROVES OTHERWISE

PLEASE SEE THIS SPUNKY WOMAN DISCUSS ISLAM AS THE RELIGION OF PEACE….. FROM JULY 2013

You don’t need a translation to understand this. It’s in plain old English. And its message is really simple too. To the extent that there is such a thing as Muslim extremism it extends to either internal Muslim infighting or to greater stringencies in religious practices that have no relevance to us.

But when it comes to things like the death penalty for adultery or any of other penalties of Islamic law. Or the necessity of forcing non-Muslims to accept Islamic law. Or the right to use force in compelling them to do so, whether it’s conventional war or terrorism. Every religious Muslim agrees.

The illusory “moderate” Muslim at best is a fellow who is less insistent on going out there and doing it. It doesn’t mean that he opposes it. It just means that he’s in less of a hurry. And less eager to get killed doing it. Often it just means that he’s more willing to be dishonest and to embrace long term thinking over short term thinking.

But the final outcome is never in doubt. Everyone agrees on the ends. The only debates between the so-called politicals and militants are over the means of making this happen.

And this is the end. It’s Orwell’s boot on the face of humanity forever. Universal slavery, oppression and degradation. That’s Islam.

Geneva Conference Moves Toward Criminalizing “Islamophobia” By Deborah Weiss

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/deborah-weiss/geneva-conference-moves-toward-criminalizing-islamophobic-speech/print/ In its quest to criminalize speech that’s critical of all Islam-related topics, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC)* endorsed the formation of a new Advisory Media Committee to address “Islamophobia.” This past September, the OIC held “The First International Conference on Islamophobia: Law & Media.”  The conference endorsed numerous recommendations which arose from prior […]

How The Left Formulates Our Vocabulary — on The Glazov Gang

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/frontpagemag-com/obama-the-agitator-on-the-glazov-gang/

This week’s Glazov Gang was joined by Karen Kenny, Founder of the San Fernando Valley Patriots, John Duffy, a Film Producer from the Bronx, and Kai Chen, the author of One In A Billion: Journey Toward Freedom.

(See Karen Kenny’s testimony before the Ways and Means Committee in Washington, DC on June 4, 2013 regarding the IRS scandal here).The Gang discussed How The Left Formulates Our Vocabulary. The discussion occurred in Part II and focused on how Americans are allowing Obama’s assault on America’s founding principles. The dialogue also shed light on Obama’s Rejection of the American Dream, ObamaCare’s Doom of Destruction, and much, much more.

DANIEL GREENFIELD: BEATING OBAMA *****

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/beating-obama/

Obama does many things. He prevaricates, manipulates, defrauds, abuses and usurps. But one thing that he does not do is compromise.

Any strategy built on forcing Obama to compromise is inherently flawed. He may occasionally throw Republicans a tiny bone to make them feel better about giving in, but only as long as his is the only plate with meat on it.

Obama never compromises because he has never really lost. He has been insulated from defeat by his fanaticism, his arrogance and his media… and by Republican incompetence.

Obama can only be beaten on his own terms. He can’t be beaten legislatively or judicially as long as he wields executive powers whose limits he refuses to accept. If Congress passes something, he can and will choose to ignore it. If the Supreme Court strikes something down, he will do it anyway.

That is why Justice Roberts, like so many other conservatives, blinked in a confrontation with Obama and chose to preserve the system while legalizing ObamaCare, rather than see ObamaCare implemented anyway while the system of checks and balances was trashed.

The Roberts mistake is the same one that Congressional Republicans have made in their games of chicken with Obama. They have chosen to preserve the system, whether it’s the political system, the economic system or any other part of the status quo, over defeating Obama.

BETSY McCAUGHEY, PHD : A TYRANT’S DREAM- CONGRESS CEDES CONTROL OF FEDERAL DEBT

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/a-tyrants-dream-congress-cedes-control-of-federal-debt The bargain rushed through Congress on Wednesday night clobbers the U.S. Constitution. It shifts control over the debt ceiling from Congress to the president, in violation of Article 1, Section 8, and pushes the nation toward a slippery slope of allowing the president unlimited power to borrow. Article 1, Section 8, states that “Congress […]

MARK SILVERBERG: THE IMPLICATION OF TURKEY’S BETRAYAL

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/the-turkish-betrayal-global-implications?f=puball On October 17th, Washington Post columnist David Ignatius reported that in 2012, Turkey, a NATO member, directly gave Iranian intelligence the identities of 10 Iranians who had been meeting in Turkey with their Israeli Mossad handlers. Subsequent reports suggest that they may have already been executed by the Iranians. But, as Boaz Bismuth writes […]

EDWARD CLINE: OBAMA SAYS “SHUT UP”

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/obama-says-shut-up While blaming the federal government’s shutdown on the House’s dragging its feet on a budget bill that would raise the debt ceiling and defund Obamacare, and not himself or the government itself for “shutting down,” President Barack Obama during an address to Congress in the White House State Dining Room on the morning of […]

Mark Krikorian : Trojan Horse A Lame House Border-Security Bill is Designed to be a Vehicle for Amnesty.

http://www.nationalreview.com/node/361844/print

Believing that they won the recent shutdown fight, President Obama and the Democrats think they have momentum to browbeat the House into passing some version of the Schumer-Rubio amnesty that was approved by the Senate in June.

Representative Paul Ryan has been actively working to help the president achieve his chief goal for the second term. Many conservatives fear that Speaker Boehner and the rest of the House GOP leadership share Ryan’s desire to pass a bill that would legalize the present 11 million–plus illegal aliens and double future legal immigration.

But the unpopularity of the comprehensive, 1,200-page Schumer-Rubio bill has forced even pro-amnesty Republicans to reject the idea of bringing it up for a vote in the House. Instead, the House will vote on smaller, targeted measures, addressing one issue at a time.

The concern of amnesty skeptics (and the hope of amnesty pushers) is that the House will take one of the targeted bills into conference with the Senate; the negotiated result might be a tweaked version of the Schumer-Rubio bill, which would need only a handful of Republican votes, added to all the Democrats, to pass.
