RUTHFULLY YOURS

http://news.yahoo.com/muslims-upset-nypd-boycott-mayors-breakfast-233518085.html

NEW YORK (AP) — Several Muslim leaders have declined invitations to the mayor’s annual year-end interfaith breakfast, saying they’re upset at police department efforts to infiltrate mosques and spy onMuslim neighborhoods.

The imams and activists said in a letter to Mayor Michael Bloomberg that they’re disturbed at his response to a series of stories by The Associated Press detailing New York Police Departmentintelligence-gathering programs that monitored Muslim groups, businesses and houses of worship.

Bloomberg has defended the NYPD, saying last week it doesn’t take religion into account in its policing.

Bloomberg spokesman Stu Loeser acknowledged Wednesday that about a dozen people turned down the breakfast invitation. But he said “a couple dozen” more said they plan to attend.

American senior citizens still envision war where, for the most part, soldiers wear a uniform while shooting at their enemy as in WWII, Korea and Vietnam. In the modern age this concept has been drastically changed by the Islamic Jihadists. Americans must awaken to the non uniformed and non violent fanatic Jihadists techniques used in “Warring on America”.

The main-street media and our Government have not seen it fit to inform us as to how we are being attacked on US soil. Thus, most Americans tend to be Il-informed and assume the Islamic Jihadists are not active enough to be a danger. Even people who are aware that there is a War On America do not realize the number and type of attacks that have been attempted or have been committed on our soil over the past 35 years.

According to TheReligionOfPeace.com, as of November 20, 2011, Islamic Terrorists have carried out more than 18,003 deadly terror attacks since 9/11 and counting. From the first page of TheReligionOfPeace.com you can link to each attack in each year and you will realize the magnitude of the attacks abroad and in the USA.

“I found myself asking that very same question, with as much bewilderment, after the current White House resident informed the whole world about his daughter Malia’s busy schedule on the bar/bat mitzvah circuit. That was somehow supposed to prove that Obama is the most pro-Israel president ever, endear him to American-Jewish hearts and win him political support, campaign contributions and crucial votes….Malia’s dad pulled out all the stops when appearing at the recent Union for Reform Judaism Biennial in Maryland. His cliché-ridden routine wouldn’t have shamed any campy stand-up comedian in the intensely embarrassing era of Catskill overkill.”

An Italian couple are to become the world’s oldest divorcees, after the 99-year-old husband found that his 96-year-old wife had an affair in the 1940s.

The Italian man, identified by lawyers in the case only as Antonio C, was rifling through an old chest of drawers when he made the discovery a few days before Christmas.

Notwithstanding the time that had elapsed since the betrayal, he was so upset that he immediately confronted his wife of 77 years, named as Rosa C, and demanded a divorce.

When it released its National Strategy for Counterterrorism back in June, the Obama administration had a lot to crow about. Al-Qaeda mastermind Osama Bin Laden had been killed a month earlier by U.S. special forces in his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Persistent operations by the United States and its Coalition partners over the preceding year had succeeded in degrading the organization’s capabilities in a number of key theaters (including Afghanistan and Pakistan). And counterterrorism operations then underway would net major gains in the months that followed, not least the late September death by Predator drone of influential Yemeni ideologue Anwar al-Awlaki.

Rep. Ron Paul’s defense of Iran’s nuclear weapons program should surprise no one. The same resentment motivates Ron Paul and the Iranian leadership — a paranoid hostility toward a world that is swiftly changing and has little mercy, and a Millenarian desire to return to a mythical, untroubled past. Get rid of the Federal Reserve, scourge the bankers, return to a gold standard and erect a wall around the United States — and we will return to when? To 1957, when the Russians launched the first space satellite, alerting the United States to the danger that it might lose the Cold War? Then, as always, we prevailed, but by the skin of our teeth. Ron Paul’s program is an American version of the Iranian desire to return to a world of Islamic purity that never existed, any more than did a golden age of American isolationism.

Kesler in City Journal: Hypocritical CalState OKs Anti-Semitism

A California State University, Northridge, economics professor maintains a website devoted to promoting sex-tourism in Thailand. The loud denunciations on campus pressured him to take the off-campus website down. Meanwhile, a vile anti-Semitic website is maintained by a CalState, Northridge. math professor, using the university’s own server, and contrary to university regulations it is OKd as “free speech” by the university’s president, retiring this month.

The Manhattan Institute’s City Journal carries my “Cal State’s Chutzpah,” labeling it a “hypocritical university.” This is an update on my post December 6, “Looking Away From Hate At California State University.”

The Chancellor of the California State University system, Charles Reed, fails to weigh in on the side of decency or academic standards or rules, but appoints as interim president the CSUN Provost who signed the math professor’s November letter to the Chancellor that study abroad should not be allowed in Israel. The letter levies charges against Israel (debunked by the reply from Scholars for Peace in the Middle East) not applied to any other democratic nation. This is anti-Semitism, according to the European Union’s Working Definition of anti-Semitism.

At CalState’s sister public university system, University of California, Mark Yudof, president of the University of California system, also pussy-foots around confronting the rife anti-Semitism at U of C campuses. His evasions are discussed here at Maggie’s Farm and in a shorter version at New Criterion.

These are both taxpayer-supported public university systems. Neither wants to do the legal or decent thing in fear of the pro-Palestinian/leftist faculty members who wield predominant power on campuses. Such callow anti-Semitism would be condemned if at a private company, and the malefactors terminated. Continued exposure is necessary if our public universities are to meet standards applicable elsewhere throughout America.

Philadelphia is known as the city of brotherly love and, apparently, paying out massive pensions to public employees who will continue working for the city.
Marion B. Tasco, who has been described as being “politically savvy,” will retire from her sixth term as councilwoman, collect $478,057, and then be sworn in on Monday to serve her seventh term, Catherine Lucy and Chris Brennan of the Philadelphia Daily News.
How does she get away with this?

http://michaelcutler.net/   Here is my most recent commentary for the CAPS (Californians for Population Stabilization) website.  I have often noted that President Abraham Lincoln eloquently summed up the sort of government that our constitution established- “A Government of the People, By the People and For the People.”  Today it is nearly impossible to find evidence […]

Discredited diplomat Dennis Ross is Mr. Chutzpah
Obama’s former Iran advisor Dennis Ross has an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal that is entitled “On Iran, Pressure Works.” It should have been called “Chutzpah” instead. After all, Ross was the main mouthpiece for a policy that wasted years engaging with Iran, then weakly sanctioning Iran and now claims to favor “pressuring” Iran but without using force.

The plain fact is that Ross’s championing of engagement with Tehran has only served Iran’s purposes and as even Ross now admits, the Iranians are closer than ever to having a nuclear weapon.
