I came to the meeting with an agenda: to persuade him to sit down with the Israelis and resume negotiations without first requiring the Israelis to accept a total settlement […]

JANET LEVY: THE THREAT DOCTRINE THAT CRIES ‘BLASPHEMY” ****

http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/../2012/11/the_threat_doctrine_that_cries_blasphemy.html For the past 25 years, the Muslim Brotherhood in North America has been pursuing a comprehensive strategy to control what non-Muslims know about Islam. This multi-pronged threat doctrine seeks to prohibit open discussion and to abridge free speech. It also seeks to curtail education and training given to the military, law enforcement, intelligence, and […]

KENNETH LEVIN: THE LEVY REPORT….A VITAL BEGINNING ****

The Levy Report, named for the head of the three-person commission, former Supreme Court Justice Edmond Levy, has triggered hysterical, damning responses not only from those beyond the Jewish world that are traditionally hostile to Israel […]

PETRAEUS OF BENGHAZI: DIANA WEST

http://www.dianawest.net/Home/tabid/36/EntryId/2303/Petraeus-of-Benghazi.aspx First, the WSJ, now the NYT: CIA Director David Petraeus is feeling a little heat from the spotlight regarding Benghazi. It’s an extremely soft-focus spot, however, one that obscures the most important question regarding Petraeus’ role in Obama administration mendacity in characterizing what was a planned terrorist attack as a violent melee growing from […]

We Are Those Who Stand for the Day Posted by Daniel Greenfield

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ We face two conflicts in the present day and against the present day. Both conflicts are being fought against ideologies dislocated in time, longing urgently for the past and the future.  Islamism is a reactionary ideology preaching a perfect world to be gained by stepping back to the 7th Century origins of its founding […]

MY SAY: WHEN APOLOGIES ARE DUE….APOLOGIZE

Last night on the O’Reilly show, Geraldo Rivera insisted that Americans owe Barack Obama an apology….that’s right…..an apology for their treatment of him regarding Benghazi. Maybe we do owe the Prez and apology.

Here is mine:

Dear President:

Americans owe you an apology for having catapulted you to the White House from a nondescript role as an accidental Senator (accidental because your Democratic opponent’s private and sealed divorce records were revealed, and then, what do you know, in the general election your opponent Jack Ryan’s private divorce custody papers were also released revealing some infidelity problems).

The American infatuation with you propelled you into a job for which you were totally unfit, unprepared and unschooled. That was so unfair to you and to the nation. Now you are stuck with an economy you could not mend, a foreign policy scandal you can’t talk your way out of, and a public that is reacting with the force of a scorned lover.

And when the media strikes…it uses expressions like “hit the road Barack” (Newsweek) …so mean.

But help is on the way. Americans will issue the final apology for over promoting you and giving you a job way above your pay grade. You will have a cushy retirement, big bucks from speaking engagements, and books to write. Like Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton your star will rise.

Good luck and best regards to the family.

WSJ. EDITORIAL: THE FOG OF BENGHAZI…WHAT WE KNOW AND WHAT WE DON’T KNOW

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204712904578090612465153472.html?mod=opinion_newsreel

“Mr. Obama has made the defeat of al Qaeda a core part of his case for re-election. Yet in Benghazi an al Qaeda affiliate killed four U.S. officials in U.S. buildings, contradicting that political narrative.”

The Ambassador to Libya and three other Americans were murdered September 11 in Benghazi. That we know. But too little else about what took place before, during and after the attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission is clear.

The White House says Republicans are “politicizing” a tragedy. Politicians politicize, yes, but part of their job is to hold other politicians accountable. The Administration has made that difficult by offering evasive, inconsistent and conflicting accounts about one of the most serious American overseas defeats in recent years. Unresolved questions about Benghazi loom over this election because the White House has failed to resolve them.

• Why did the U.S. not heed warnings about a growing Islamist presence in Benghazi and better protect the diplomatic mission and CIA annex?

From the start of the Libyan uprising in early 2011, the Central Intelligence Agency built up an unusually large presence in Benghazi. By this September, two dozen or so operatives and contractors monitored Ansar al-Shariah and other militant groups. Deteriorating security after the war was no secret. U.S. intelligence noted militant camps in the mountains near Benghazi, including “al Qaeda leaning” fighters, according to Tuesday’s New York Times.
