DANIEL GREENFIELD: WAR IS THE ANSWER ****

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ For the last hundred years the best and brightest of the civilized world have been engaged in the business of peace. In the days before the Nobel Peace Prize became a joke, it was expected that scientific progress would lead to moral progress. Nations would accept international laws and everyone would get together to […]

DIANA WEST: PETRAEUS, CONGRESS AND FOUR STAR LIES

http://www.dianawest.net/Home/tabid/36/EntryId/2323/Thanksgiving-Congress-and-Four-Star-Lies.aspx

I think I know what David Petraeus is thankful for this week.

Even though it appears the former CIA director lied to the House Intelligence Committee on Sept. 14, and may have lied again to the same committee on Nov. 16, he is starting to slip out of the inner ring of Benghazi cover-up suspects. We are losing sight of his official role in the deception as the media lens ossifies over a tawdry love triangle. For this, he must be thankful. Maybe to ensure the good fortune continues, Petraeus has hired Bob Barnett, the $975-per-hour Washington superlawyer to officials with issues and/or big book deals, to manage what reports call Petraeus’ “transition to civilian life.”

Here, for the record, is what the media and politicians are letting slip away with him.

After Petraeus appeared before the House Intelligence Committee on Sept. 14 to brief members behind closed doors on the Benghazi attack of Sept. 11, the ranking Democrat on the committee, Maryland Rep. Dutch Ruppersberger, gave ABC an account of the briefing.

“In the Benghazi area,” Ruppersberger said, “in the beginning we feel that it was spontaneous — the protest — because it went on for two or three hours, which is very relevant, because if it was something that was planned, they could have come and attacked right away. At this point, it looks as if there was a spontaneous situation that occurred and that as a result of that, the extreme groups that were probably connected to al-Qaida took advantage of that situation and then the attack started.”

DAVID GOLDMAN: MORSI’S BLACKMAIL, IRAN’S THREATS, AND TURKEY’S FEARS PLAY OUT IN GAZA

http://pjmedia.com/spengler/2012/11/21/morsis-blackmail-irans-threats-and-turkeys-fears-play-out-in-gaza/ UPDATE: The protection racket seems to have worked with the ceasefire. Mohammed Morsi has emerged as the hero of the hour–for persuading his Muslim Brotherhood comrades to stop firing rockets at Israel. Morsi is now a legitimate player, Hamas achieves de facto recognition (and can claim victory for assaulting Israel with impunity), and Israel’s […]

ROBERT SPENCER: WOULD A PALESTINIAN STATE BRING PEACE?

http://pjmedia.com/blog/would-a-palestinian-state-bring-peace/ As yet another round of the relentless jihad against Israel opens up, it’s useful to consider: would the two-state solution now taken for granted and offered by both parties really bring peace? The need to establish a Palestinian state wasn’t even a point of controversy during the last election campaign. The Democrat Party platform […]

PATRICK POOLE: EGYPT’S MORSI PLANNING TO REPLACE PRIME MINISTER WITH MOSLEM BROTHERHOOD HARDLINER

http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2012/11/21/egypts-morsi-planning-to-replace-prime-minister-with-brotherhood-hardliner/?print=1 A possible stunning development may be occurring in Egypt. With President Mohamed Morsi, former spokesman for the Muslim Brotherhood, in office just over 100 days, the official website of the Muslim Brotherhood reported on Monday that Morsi is considering replacing current Prime Minister Hisham Kandil with Brotherhood hardliner and former presidential candidate Khairat al-Shater […]

ANDREW McCARTHY: THE CEASEFIRE

http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/333882/ceasefire-andrew-c-mccarthy It’s amusing to read (in Patrick’s update) that the Israeli government has agreed, as part of the “ceasefire,” to stop the “targeting of individuals.” What moral universe do we live in where Hamas launches hundreds of missiles and sets off bombs the intent of which is the mass homicide of civilians, yet what the […]

I just got home last night. I read a blog post by Jonathan Tobin from Commentary today where I discovered that the post-Zionist poster boy of the American Jewish left Peter Beinart is now accusing Israel’s […]

PROFESSOR MOSHE SHARON:THE AGENDA OF ISLAM – A WAR BETWEEN CIVILIZATIONS (FROM 2003)….

http://www.faithfreedom.org/Articles/MosheSharon40214%20.htm There is no Fundamental Islam. “Fundamentalism” is a word that came from the heart of the Christian religion. It means faith that goes by the word of the Bible. Fundamental Christianity, or going with the Bible, does not mean going around and killing people. There is no fundamental Islam.

“Hudnah” and “Sulh” Do Not Mean “Peace”. By: Moshe Sharon

(A Hudnah is a cessation of hostilities for one reason; and that is to
permit Muslims to re-fortify themselves and continue Jihad, until a just
peace is achieved, under Shari’ah. It’s so simple. Muslims are compelled to
do so because systemic Islamic text demands it and all Muslims must follow
the ethics and lifestyle of Prophet Muhammad, because his behavioral example
is to be emulated by all Muslims).

The war of terror, which has been waged against Israel since October 2000,(
actually for hundreds of years), has brought again to the fore simple facts,
which the government of Israel, as well as most of the media, refuse to
understand and face boldly. The facts are derived from one truth which
should be presented in the clearest words possible: the Arab-Moslem
strategic decision has always been, and will always remain, the destruction
of the State of Israel, and the annihilation of its Jewish population. The
Palestinians are the spearhead of this Arab-Moslem long-term strategy, and
terror has been chosen as the method to weaken Israel by spreading in it
defeatist feelings, and loss of self-confidence.
