US IS SNOOKERED BY THE LIE ABOUT THE “FATWA” AGAINST NUCLEAR ARMS

The Success Of The New Iranian Strategy (I) – The U.S. Administration Swallows The Lie About Khamenei’s ‘Fatwa’ Against Nuclear Arms

In his address to the U.N. General Assembly (September 24, 2013), U.S. President Barack Obama stated: “The Supreme Leader has issued a fatwa against the development of nuclear weapons.”[1] In fact, such a fatwa was never issued by Supreme Leader Khamenei and does not exist; neither the Iranian regime nor anybody else can present it.

The deception regarding “Khamenei’s fatwa” has been promoted by the Iranian regime and its spokesmen for several years. Each time it was mentioned, the “fatwa” was given a different year of issue – for example, 2005, 2007, or 2012 – but the text of the “fatwa” was never presented.

MEMRI has conducted in-depth research with regard to this “fatwa” and has published reports demonstrating that it is a fiction. See MEMRI reports:

DANIEL GREENFIELD: THE CHURCH OF VICTIMOLOGY

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ One fine day religion died. Morality shortly followed it. Any values based on some antique prophets or philosophers went into the rubbish bin. The table was cleared and its blankness was the new world, the terra nova, the blank slate of a revolution in human ideas. Unfortunately there was nothing to actually put there. […]

BRUCE BAWER: VOICES OF REASON ABOUT THE GENDER WARS

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/bruce-bawer/voices-of-reason-about-the-gender-wars/ In recent months, a group called the Canadian Association for Equality (CAFE) has been making headlines and inciting angry protests with a series of lectures at the University of Toronto. What provocative messages, what unconscionable claims, what inflammatory statements, you might ask, have caused all this hullabaloo? Answer: nothing more or less than sober […]

Here’s where you might have last heard of the Republic of New Africa.

Two hijackers who have been living in exile in Cuba claim they shot and killed a New Mexico police officer in self-defense after he stopped them in a stolen car in 1971 near Albuquerque.

Hill and Finney were interviewed in Havana, where they have been living since the 1971 hijacking of TWA Flight 106 at Albuquerque International Airport. Rosenbloom was shot days earlier.

At the time, the two men were members of a group called the Republic of New Africa, a Black Panther splinter group. They were driving across country when Rosenbloom stopped them.

After the shooting, the men went into hiding for several days and then called for a tow truck. They hijacked the truck and drove onto the tarmac at the airport where they commandeered Flight 106, which had 49 people aboard, to Tampa, Fla. They released the passengers there, and then took off for Havana after refueling.

Until now. At any rate.

On July 1, Chokwe Lumumba, an attorney with a long record of black radical activism, took office as mayor of Jackson.

A crowd of 2,500 packed the hall. The city councilors and other dignitaries, most of them African-American — Jackson, a city of 177,000, is 80 percent black — sat on the dais.

Then Lumumba smiled and raised his right hand halfway, just a little above the podium, briefly showing the clenched fist of a Black Power salute.

“And I want to say, free the land!”

Applause rang out, bells chimed, wooden staffs rose up and people shouted back, “Free the land!” That’s the motto of the Republic of New Afrika (RNA), the movement formed in 1968 that sought to turn the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina into an independent black nation.

DANIEL GREENFIELD: CAIR’S ISLAMOPHOBIA MELTDOWN ****

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/cairs-islamophobia-meltdown/ Two days after the release of a CAIR report claiming to expose the network financing “Islamophobia”, Charles C. Johnson ran his own report documenting CAIR’s convoluted financing schemes. While the CAIR report attempted to stigmatize terrorism research by reporting on the straightforward funding of organizations and individuals such as Robert Spencer; the Johnson report showed […]

ROGER KIMBALL: A FEW THOUGHTS ABOUT FREEDOM

http://pjmedia.com/rogerkimball/2013/09/29/a-few-thoughts-about-freedom-with-an-assist-from-benjamin-constant/?print=1 Out in beautiful Colorado Springs a few days ago, I was chatting with some friends about the philosophy of Michael Oakeshott [1]. (If you don’t know his work, I recommend it, in particular the brilliant essay “Rationalism in Politics [2].”) One of our merry band mentioned an essay by the Swiss-born French writer Benjamin […]

http://pjmedia.com/lifestyle/2013/09/15/israel-leper-or-light-unto-the-nations-part-7-syrians-in-israeli-hospitals-fear-monster-jews/?print=1 It’s reported that since Syria’s civil war erupted two and a half years ago, over 120 Syrians have come to Israeli hospitals for medical treatment. They appear to come mainly to Ziv Hospital in Safed, in the upper Galilee, and to the Western Galilee Medical Center in Nahariya, also in upper Galilee on the […]

CLAUDIA ROSETT: THE MOMENT OF TRUTH AT THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY

http://pjmedia.com/claudiarosett/moment-of-truth-at-the-un-general-assembly/ You might suppose that the United Nations General Assembly in New York is done with its opening exertions for 2013, now that the new UN celebrity, Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani, has flown home to help his boss, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, tend to such projects as — how has Rouhani described it? —  ”our […]
