http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/rep-peter-king-president-obama-must-move-beyond-political-correctness-to-fight-islamists While the Obama administration and many members of the elite news media appear confused as to the true nature of the national security threat posed by al-Qaeda, and its offshoots Al Shabaab, Boko Haram and al-Qaeda on the Arabian Peninsula, Congressman Peter King (R-NY) appears to be the “go-to” lawmaker for all things involving […]
http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/obamas-ship-of-state-without-a-helmsman This presidential campaign season is a time for clarification. If campaigns have any value over and above the megaphone effect of why one candidate is more desirable than the other, it is the chance to use a campaign as an educational forum. From my perspective, even silence or ambiguity can be revealing. In this […]

U.S. Weather Service Hackers from Kosovo
PLEASE ALSO NOTE: ”
Tangentially, I’m only now cluing into a news item about an American jihadist who was planning to blow up the Federal Reserve. Robert Spencer writes:According to former Detroit Public Schools Superintendent Eddie Green, Kifah Jayyousi was “a great guy, one of the nicest people I’ve ever met.” While Green was superintendent, Jayyousi oversaw the Detroit school district’s capital improvement program. Later, Jayyousi was charged, according to the Detroit Free Press, with “conspiring to kidnap, maim and murder by providing money, recruits and equipment for Islamic struggles in Bosnia, Kosovo and Chechnya from 1993 to 2001.”
Kosovo group claims hack of US weather service (AFP, Oct. 19)
WASHINGTON — The US National Weather Service computer network was hacked this week, with a group from Kosovo claiming credit and posting sensitive data, security experts said Friday.Data released by the Kosovo Hackers Security group includes directory structures, sensitive files of the Web server and other data that could enable later access, according to Chrysostomos Daniel of the security firm Acunetix. “The hacker group stated that the attack is a protest against the US policies that target Muslim countries,” Daniel said.
“Moreover, the attack was a payback for hacker attacks against nuclear plants in Muslim countries, according to a member of the hacking group who said, ‘They hack our nuclear plants using STUXNET and FLAME-like malwares, they are bombing us 27*7, we can’t sit silent — hack to payback them.”
Paul Roberts, writing on the Sophos Naked Security blog, said the leaked information includes a listing of administrative account names, which could open the hacked servers to subsequent “brute force attacks.”
“Little is known about the group claiming responsibility for the attack,” he said.
http://www.investigativeproject.org/3777/a-red-carpet-for-radicals-at-the-white-house A year-long investigation by the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) has found that scores of known radical Islamists made hundreds of visits to the Obama White House, meeting with top administration officials. Court documents and other records have identified many of these visitors as belonging to groups serving as fronts for the Muslim Brotherhood, […]
http://pjmedia.com/andrewmccarthy/2012/10/22/thinking-iran-its-the-regime-not-the-nukes/ My friend Michael Ledeen is right, of course, that the “October Surprise” trial balloon floated by the Times over the weekend — the suggestion of a “grand deal” between Obama and the mullah’s over Iran’s nuclear program — is much ado about nothing new. What would be new is to try the only approach […]
Yesterday, in what was a pleasant chat with a liberal friend, we agreed to eschew all talk of politics. However, like an itch that one has to scratch, I could see how uncomfortable and irritated she was becoming, so I said…”out with it….just say what’s on your mind….”
She responded: “How can any woman vote for Romney? He is so hostile to women’s issues….to birth control, to legal abortion, and he’s a war monger. How can you live with yourself by supporting that man?”
I shifted the conversation because facts only confuse ideologues…so I simply said…” You obviously think that foreign policy, support for Israel, a looming debt crisis, a deficit, millions on welfare and food stamps, immigration policies that are out of control, energy independence, and an economy choked with specious regulations, the threat of terrorism, and nukes in the hands of Islamic lunatics are all men’s issues.”
“So…..just call me mister.”

Most Americans reacted with horror and pain when the decent American ambassador, Christopher Stevens, was dragged and sodomized by Libyan terrorists. To date, the autopsy report of the ambassador and three other American heroes has not been made public and is perhaps being held till after the elections.
Americans deserved the proper outrage and comfort by the US president after such a horrendous terror attack, but President Obama failed to do that. Instead, he found an excuse: a video that came out months earlier before Sept. 11, 2012. For weeks the Obama administration hammered the American people with a guilt trip over Islamic outrage; the killing and burning was because of a video insulting Islam.
But when the truth came out that this was a calculated terror attack, the American people were outraged. That was when the White House decided to quickly change the game, and without hesitation Obama boldly suggested in the second debate that he did call the attack an act of terror. How can Obama expect to get away with this? Holding Islamic outrage as a justification for violence and then changing to a wishy-washy condemnation of terror has failed to fix the damage already done. I was used to this kind of dishonest maneuvering by Arab leaders, but could never have imagined that an American president could stoop to that level. Have we been infected by Islamic illogic?
