LONG BEFORE PERRY. CHRISTIE, DANIELS, WALKER, McDONNEL AND OTHER GOOD GOVERNORS THERE WAS MY FAVORITE: PETE DU PONT…

In l976, Pete du Pont was elected Governor of Delaware. He was re-elected in l980 to a second term, winning a record 7l% of the vote and becoming the first Delaware Governor reelected in 20 years. As Governor he signed into law two income tax reduction measures, the first tax reductions in Delaware’s history, and a constitutional amendment that restrained future tax increases and limited government spending. He balanced his state budget eight out of eight years. In selecting him as one of the “Delawareans of the Century,” the Wilmington News Journal said, “He set the stage for prosperity. As Delaware’s governor, du Pont revived [the] business climate.”

The Dependency Crisis More Americans live off government, and the Obama administration is encouraging the trend.

For the past several years, America’s public policy has been changing, not by chance but by an intentional effort to reshape our nation. The goal of the current federal government, led by the Obama administration, is to expand its influence and control of everything. Its regulatory policies, unprecedented peacetime spending increases, and expanding influence over private decision-making serve to increase government’s reach into everything, from schools, businesses, banks, families and individuals, to cars, roads, and personal health care.

The continual push of the Obama administration toward government-centric policies and large spending increases has compounded the lack of control of federal spending during the Bush administration. As a result, more and more Americans are dependent on the federal government. But what may be even more surprising is the historic magnitude of this increase in dependency on government.

JOHN BERNARD:Afghanistan: Understandable rage or Unacceptable Behavior?

http://letthemfight.blogspot.com/ There have been many in the media, in politics and in the upper echelons of our military structure who have been “grappling” with this question; at least they would like you to believe that. The fact is those who seem to be trying to make sense of the events which unfolded in the wake […]

BRUCE KESLER: PURIM; WHERE IS MANKIND WHEN NEEDED?

http://maggiesfarm.anotherdotcom.com/archives/19256-Purim-Wheres-Mankind-When-Needed.html I’ve been going to an interesting series of lectures on what is called Holocaust theology, the attempts to analyze what lessons about G-d can be drawn from the Holocaust, summed up in the question “Where’s G-d When Needed?” The learned views vary but, not having read the books, what seems missing is the question […]

MESSAGE FROM AMERICANS FOR A SAFE ISRAEL AND MARK LANGFAN

www.israelnationalnews.com  Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be in Washington, DC to address the AIPAC Conference on March 5. President Obama will also be speaking at the Conference. In preparation for this meeting, AIPAC officials have put out ridiculous messages about Pres. Obama being Israel’s best friend. That is so absurd in light of Obama’s […]

JERUSALEM: A TALE OF ONE CITY….PART ONE YEDIDYA ATLAS….PLEASE SEE NOTE

http://blogs.timesofisrael.com/jerusalem-a-tale-of-one-city-part-i/

I AGREE ABOUT JERUSALEM….BUT THE FIRST CAPITAL OF THE JEWISH PEOPLE IS HEBRON….AND ONCE ISRAEL’S CLAIM WAS ABROGATED DURING THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION AT THE INFAMOUS NETANYAHU “WYE PLANTATION” MEETING AND SURRENDER, JERUSALEM WAS NEXT TO BE CHALLENGED…..RSK
This week the world media was treated to another anti-Israel performance at the “The International Conference for the Defence of Occupied Jerusalem” in Qatar. According to the Qatar News Agency, a few hundred representatives from Arab, Islamic and other countries convened to discuss “the legal status of Jerusalem before and after the Israeli occupation, the reality and the future of Jerusalem under occupation, and the status of the holy places under international law.”

The conference, approved during the 22nd Arab League Summit in Libya in March 2010, is another step in the international de-legitimization of the Jewish history of Jerusalem. Among the attendees are PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, Israeli MK Ahmed Tibi, Arab League Secretary-General Nabil al-Arabi and Robert Serry, United Nations Coordinator for the Peace Process in the Middle East.

TALES FROM THE WIENERWALD…WALTZING WITH THE GLOBAL CALIPHATE…SOEREN KERN

Caliphate Conference Seeks Global Islamic State [with VIDEO]
A Muslim fundamentalist group is organizing a conference focused on turning Austria and other European countries into Islamic states.

The “Caliphate Conference 2012” will be held on March 10 in the Austrian town of Vösendorf, situated just south of Vienna. The main theme of the event will be “The Caliphate: The State Model of the Future.”

The conference is being organized by Hizb ut-Tahrir [Party of Liberation], a pan-Islamic extremist group that seeks to establish a global Islamic state, or caliphate, ruled by Islamic Sharia law.

Hizb ut-Tahrir — which is banned in many countries, including Germany, but is free to operate in Austria — is virulently opposed to Western capitalism and democracy and seeks to extend the future caliphate to Europe and the United States.

RUTH WISSE; HARVARD’S LATEST ASSAULT ON ISRAEL

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203960804577244932732348366.html?mod=WSJ_Opinion_LEFTTopOpinion&_nocache=1330478996193&user=welcome&mg=id-wsj
Harvard’s Latest Assault on Israel
Promoting the Jewish State’s destruction at a school dedicated to ‘democratic governance.’
In 1948, when the Arab League declared war on Israel, no one imagined that six decades later American universities would become its overseas agency. Yet campus incitement against Israel has been growing from California to the New York Island. A conference at Harvard next week called “Israel/Palestine and the One-State Solution” is but the latest aggression in an escalating campaign against the Jewish state.

The sequence is by now familiar: Arab student groups and self-styled progressives organize a conference or event like “Israeli Apartheid Week,” targeting Israel as the main problem of the Middle East. They frame the goals of these events in buzzwords of “expanding the range of academic debate.” But since the roster of speakers and subjects makes their hostile agenda indisputable, university spokespersons scramble to dissociate their institutions from the events they are sponsoring. Jewish students and alums debate whether to ignore or protest the aggression, and newspapers fueling the story give equal credence to Israel’s attackers and defenders.

A featured speaker at Harvard’s conference is Ali Abunimah, creator of the website Electronic Intifada, who opposes the existence of a “Jewish State” as racist by virtue of being Jewish. A regular on this circuit, he also keynoted a recent University of Pennsylvania conference urging “Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions” (BDS) of, from and against Israel. Ostensibly dedicated to protecting Palestinian Arabs from Israeli oppression, BDS has by now achieved the status of an international “movement,” some of whose branches exclude Israeli academics from their journals and conferences.

SEX, MARXISM AND FRAUD: STEVEN PLAUT

Sex, Marxism and Fraud

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/02/29/sex-marxism-and-fraud/print/

Scott Ritter is not the only darling of the Left to get himself into trouble because of his sexual misbehavior. Another is Marc H. Ellis, a tenured professor at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, and one of the most malicious collaborators in the Campus Wars against the Jews. He openly calls for Israel to be exterminated. He is to be one of the key speakers at the “Annihilate Israel” academic “conference” to be held in a few days at Harvard.

Baylor University’s president is Kenneth Starr, best remembered from his investigations of another sexual predator, Bill Clinton. The current campaign to rid Baylor of Ellis is because Ellis reportedly sexually harassed a female faculty member, who got herself a lawyer and filed a complaint. Evidently all sorts of Baylor faculty knew about it. In response to this, Starr and Baylor have suspended Ellis from all teaching and administrative duties indefinitely. Baylor offered to “buy Ellis out” to get him to leave. Last July the Faculty Dismissal Committee notified Ellis that the administration was seeking his dismissal.
