RUTHFULLY YOURS

Lead performers in “Cabaret” sing “Money makes the world go round.” Little did these performers know about the Middle East where money not only makes the world go round but props up dictators like Syria’s Bashar al-Assad. Iran is presently spending billions to keep him in power and prosecute a war in which more than 230,000 people have been killed and poison gas has been employed.

Moreover, should the “treaty” with Iran be consummated this sponsor of global terrorism will receive at least $100 billion in sanctions relief. Not only will this money be used for Assad, but it will bankroll Hezbollah and Hamas with a new generation of rockets and weapons.

This special edition of The Glazov Gang was guest-hosted by Ann-Marie Murrell, the CEO/Editor-in-Chief of PolitiChicks.com. She was joined by Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center who writes the blog The Point at Frontpagemag.com.

Daniel discussed Hillary’s Final Scandal?, explaining who will — and who won’t — go to jail over Emailgate.

Don’t miss it!

In Germany, where traffickers are now dropping off illegal immigrants on Autobahns, authorities have reacted — not by trying to intercept or discourage traffickers, but by putting up new road signs alerting drivers of potential pedestrians on the highway.

Last month alone, more migrants landed on the shores of Greece than in the whole of 2014.

If the mainstream media keep reminding everyone how the rioting immigrant youths in France or Britain are driven by economic inequality now, imagine the scale of unrest once European welfare states cannot finance “half the planet” anymore and are forced to cut welfare benefits.

Paul Schnee was the western regional director for the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) in 2010 and its lay president in 2012.

Some men are born to commit shameful acts. All of the rabbis who signed the letter supporting the Iran nuclear deal fall into this disgraceful category. All of them have a long history of collaborating with anti-Americans, Jew-haters and the enemies of Israel. They are moral pariahs. Not one of them is fit to be called a Jew. Indeed, if excommunication existed in Judaism these traitors would long ago have richly deserved such an ignominious fate and been declared anathema.

The acrid smell coming from their direction is the stench of their self-hatred which cannot abide the transformation of the Jewish people from the perfection of powerlessness into power. These ingratiating cultural vandals live safely sheltered from the destructive policies they espouse and, like the unlamented Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, have managed to prosper keeping their feet firmly planted on the liberal ladder of preferment. Their regular betrayals have made them permanent members of the “terrorist caucus” of the treacherous LEFT whose vocal champion, unbelievably, is the president of the United States.

Bad faith, worse judgment, disloyalty, purblind partisanship and a calcified cynicism have allowed these ordained Pinocchios to support a tragically suicidal agreement and cast aside the vital national security interests of the United States while placing Israel directly in the crosshairs of Islamic supremacist ayatollahs with an apocalyptic vision.

You cannot enhance the prospects of peace by enhancing the prospects of a country like Iran whose messianic ayatollahs are ideologically dedicated to terror and war. This should be obvious even to the slowest of minds but in a collective psyche choked with neuroses “obviousness” becomes one of the first casualties hence the spirit of idiotic bliss with which the rabbis wrote and signed their perfidious letter. They will regret this but once and that will be continuously.

The more we learn about the nuclear deal with Iran negotiated by President Obama’s Secretary of State John Kerry, the more farcical it appears. Frightening is a better word. Iran with a bomb is a scary prospect. It is because of that image that the Obama Administration argues so forcibly that there is no other option short of war. If he is correct – that if in befriending Iran they will enter the ‘community of nations’ – then the deal is worth supporting. But is he and will they?

The public responses of Iranian leaders indicate no willingness to change. If anything, they have become more confrontational and contemptuous. This agreement has a time limit. Iran will be able to continue nuclear research and spin centrifuges. They will have clear sailing to get a bomb once the treaty terminates in fifteen years; so everything depends on altering their behavior. Other nations in the Middle East, such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Egypt will not stand by; thus the probability of proliferation has increased. As well, Russia wants desperately to recapture her Cold War role. Instability in the region provides opportunities. A hundred billion dollars will be released for the use by Iran’s leaders – for purposes of funding terrorism, and military purchases of missiles, nuclear detonators and offensive weapons. No one expects the money will be used for the welfare of the Iranian people.

GAZA CITY — Alongside the Hamas training camps and bombed-out neighborhoods, there is a parallel reality where the wafer-thin Palestinian middle class here is wooed by massage therapists, spin classes and private beach resorts.

Media images beamed from the Gaza Strip rightly focus on the territory’s abundant miseries. But rising from the rubble of last summer’s devastating war with Israel are a handful of new ­luxury-car dealerships, boutiques selling designer jeans and, coming soon to a hip downtown restaurant, “Sushi Nights.”

This is the Gaza outside the war photographer’s frame, where families of the small, tough, aspirational middle class will splurge on a $140 seaside villa with generator power to give their kids a 20-hour staycation with a swimming pool and palm trees.

Since 1979, a cabal of nations has aided and abetted Iran in its efforts to develop a robust nuclear program under the guise of generating a nuclear energy system. This cabal is mainly comprised of Russia, China, and North Korea. Since sanctions began being placed on Iran in 1979, with more added since, Iran still had enough free reign to develop its capabilities despite the sanctions regime because of this cabal. All the moving parts are in place, the material is there, and this means they are already nuclear – “break out” is imminent now.

During this period, North Korea had evaded sanctions, and like Iran, lied, cheated, and broke virtually every agreement it ever signed with the United Nations. Now North Korea is a nuclear weapons power, and we believe Iran has already done the same. Each had created hidden facilities but only North Korea has actually tested weapons fully. Because Iran has to date only detonated trigger devices that does not mean the Mullahs do not have weapons capability now because they certainly have enough material.

Both Iran and North Korea are also fast approaching inter-continental missile capability, and Iranian government observers, research scientists, and senior military officials have been on-site in North Korea for the testing of its systems. In essence, Iran has had the benefit of having North Korea essentially do their development and testing for them.

From an e-pal Jan Poller: “If the US. was going to do this, it would have to be prepared to hit any site any time in the future. It can’t be a one time thing.Obama missed the opportunity to support the anti-Ayatollah, Pro-American Green revolution in Iran.The U.S. missed the opportunity to strike ISIS when they moved across the desert from Iraq to Syria.In 5 years of less, we will regret missing the opportunity to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities. Since sometime in 2009, I have felt that Obama WANTS Iran to have nukes. Nothing has changed, including his lies and his actions, since then to make me even doubt that let alone change my mind. Jan Mel Poller

WASHINGTON — U.S. airstrikes aimed at Iran’s nuclear facilities would likely set back the regime’s quest for a weapon by one or two years and require waves of attacks spearheaded by the ultra-heavy conventional bomb known as the Massive Ordnance Penetrator, according to military officials and experts.

A comprehensive attack aimed first at taking down Iran’s air defenses and destroying its deeply buried nuclear facilities would provide a “moderate confidence level” that Iran’s pursuit of a nuclear weapon would be set back by as much as two years, said a senior officer familiar with the planning.

Two senior officers involved in planning potential Iran attacks spoke to USA TODAY. Both spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

Dr. Phil Taverna has written some interesting articles stressing right brain and left brain functions. Organizations that have been infiltrated by a large number of left wing extremists, like the Democratic Party, know how to appeal to the right brain functions which are more emotional, as opposed to Republicans who attempt to counter left wing artifice with facts which originate in left brain functions. Hence, Republicans often may seem to be mean, nasty little “fact people.” For the anti-fact brigade, if you care enough, you will set the facts aside, and you will “have a heart.”

Mrs. Clinton staked herself out as a right brain person a long time ago with the sophomoric but cagey book, It Takes A Village. Updating her book, we see today that it takes a village of “soft on crime citizens” to produce the heartless murder of a Kate Steinle. It takes a village of corrupt, Tammany Hall-style grafters and job seekers to cast aside the normal interests in family and productivity in our urban black communities. Fifty to eighty years of Democratic Party rule in our large metropolises has led to oceans of poverty, alienation, frustration, and generational disappointment with life among African-Americans. It takes a village to look the other way while crony capitalists in both parties oil the wheels of state and corrupt the corrupters…buying influence, and widening the gap between the electorate and the power elite. Yet in Mrs. Clinton’s “village” there is no mention of the ever-widening power gap – yes, power inequality – between the political class that controls our government at all levels and the people.

The Tribalist, by Louis Marano, is ostensibly a work of fiction but at its core a kind of love song by a gentile journalist for the State of Israel, and especially its secular Zionist core. (Because of the relentless attacks by left-wing polemicists on Israel’s allegedly “messianic” fringe, it’s often forgotten that most of Israel’s founders and all its leaders have been secular Zionists.)

The author, the product of an Italian-American family in Buffalo, served two tours of duty in Vietnam as a Navy Seabee. After a brief career in academia, he spent 22 years as a journalist in Washington, D.C., including a decade at the Washington Post and five years as reporter, columnist, and feature writer for United Press International. His acute and vivid depiction of the mean-spirited, untidy passions of American Mideast correspondents toward Israel is the book’s great contribution to our understanding of one phalanx of the ignorant armies arrayed against the Jewish state.

“Politics in a work of literature,” wrote the great French novelist Stendhal, “is like a pistol-shot in the middle of a concert, something loud and vulgar, and yet a thing to which it is not possible to refuse one’s attention.”
