THIS APPALLING “OUTREACH TO MUSLIMS” STARTED LONG BEFORE OBAMA EVEN DREAMED OF THE PRESIDENCY…. ONLY MONTHS AFTER 9/11 PRESIDENT BUSH INVITED THE SAUDI KING…FUNDER AND ENABLER OF TERRORISM AND ENFORCER OF CRUEL SHARIA LAWS TO HIS RANCH IN TEXAS AND THEN PROMOTED THE THUG’S “PEACE PLAN FOR THE MIDDLE EAST”…..RSK

Which raises some questions about why he was allowed to roam free that long.

The FBI suspected within days of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks that the American Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki had purchased tickets for some of the hijackers for air travel in advance of the attacks, according to newly released documents reviewed exclusively by Fox News.

The purpose of these flights remains unclear, but the 9/11 Commission report later noted that the hijackers had used flights in the lead-up to the attacks to test security and surveillance.

The heavily redacted records – obtained by Judicial Watch through a Freedom of information Act request – show the FBI holding evidence tying the American-born cleric to the hijackers just 16 days after the attack that killed nearly 3,000 Americans.

This gets stranger when you consider what Anwar Al-Awlaki was up to during that time.

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ There was a time when the United States government ran on hooch. Hard up for cash, taxes on whiskey and beer funded the Civil War. With 40 percent of government revenues coming from liquor taxes, alcohol made the dramatic post-war expansion of government possible so that by the 20th Century, the Federal government would […]

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/our-zombie-culture Without going much into the lore, literature, and filmography of zombies, there is an appropriate analogy to be drawn between the notion of the “living dead” and the living that deserves to be illustrated.

I HAD THE HONOR OF INTERVIEWING REP. SUE MYRICK FOR FAMILY SECURITY MATTERS:
An Interview With Rep. Sue Myrick (R), North Carolina District 9

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/detail/an-interview-with-rep-sue-myrick-r-north-carolina-district-9

WASHINGTON – Just hours before a group of U.S. lawmakers were scheduled to hold a press conference to blow the whistle on a secret plan by the radical Council on American-Islamic Relations to infiltrate sensitive committees dealing with homeland security on Capitol Hill, lawyers for CAIR contacted the group’s leader and tried to intimidate her into canceling the news conference.

CAIR’s threatening tactics, which had worked on countless other officials, did not work this time, however.

The leader of the group, Rep. Sue Myrick, R-N.C., co-founder of the bipartisan House Anti-Terrorism/Jihad Caucus and a member of the House Permanent Select Committee On Intelligence, went ahead with the event, showing again an intrepid spirit that has marked the retiring congresswoman’s 18-year career in Washington.

At the 2009 press conference, Myrick revealed an internal CAIR memo written in 2007 that called for infiltrating the “judiciary, intelligence and homeland security committees” by, among other things, “placing Muslim interns” in those offices.

The memo was obtained by the authors of “Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret World That’s Conspiring to Islamize America,” which also uncovered new evidence that CAIR directly funded Hamas and al-Qaida terrorist fronts.

Fight back against CAIR’s attack on First Amendment by making a contribution to WND’s “Legal Defense Fund.” Donations of $25 or more entitle you to free copy of “Muslim Mafia” – the book so devastating to CAIR the group is trying to ban it.

ISRAEL’S MEDICAL ACHIEVEMENTS

Israeli neurologist discovers positive side effect. A study by Israeli neurologist Dr. Rivka Inzelberg has identified that patients taking dopamine-stimulating medication (to control symptoms of Parkinson’s disease) have contracted artistic or literary creative skills. Reducing the medication suppresses these new skills.

Calcium control prevents brain diseases. Hebrew University researchers have discovered that the protein Calphotin regulates the amount of Calcium contained in the body’s cells. Loss of Calphotin (e.g. due to aging) causes Calcium levels to rise and accelerates cell death. In the brain this leads to diseases such as Alzheimer’s.

Approval for Israeli tumor test. The US Food and Drugs Administration has approved the MarginProbe breast cancer test from Israel’s Dune Medical. Surgeons performing lumpectomy operations use MarginProbe to ensure that the whole tumor has been removed, thus avoiding the need for further operations.

More power to the brain. The Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Max Planck Society of Germany are to build a 3 million euro Brain Research Center on the Hebrew U’s Givat Ram site in the nation’s capital. It is hoped that the research will lead to improved treatment for destructive neurological diseases.

More help for educating minorities. The Hebrew University of Jerusalem is creating a program for students from minority backgrounds to encourage access to higher education.

Arab states love Israeli produce. A major Lebanese supermarket chain is selling Israeli goods, contrary to the 64-year-old Arab boycott of the Jewish State. Amazingly, according to a Tel Aviv University report, Israel’s exports to Middle Eastern markets in 2011 were over $6 billion, about 13 percent of overall Israeli exports.

Israel is one with Newtown. The tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School invoked much empathy from Israeli leaders and organizations. Both President Peres and Prime Minister Netanyahu sent condolences. Israel Humanitarian Aid donated boxes of fresh food to first responders in Newtown. And Hadassah has raised funds to plant a grove of 3,000 trees in Beersheva River Park, Israel, in memory of the 26 victims.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Two Israeli apps are among Apple’s “Best of 2012”. Two Israeli applications have made the Apple App Store’s Best of 2012 list. Any.Do allows users to manage a task list using voice commands or touchscreen technology. GroupShot allows group photos to be edited so that everyone looks their best.

Israel introduces “perceptual computing”. Using a unique platform developed at Intel’s Haifa center, it will soon be possible for computers to anticipate the needs of their owners. Intel is offering developers $1 million in prizes to come up with the software of tomorrow, in the Intel Perceptual Computing Challenge.

Waze can help reduce accident numbers. Ben Gurion University researchers have analyzed data from Israeli GPS navigation application “Waze “to highlight traffic trouble spots where police can be deployed more effectively. The data highlighted slow police response times and unmonitored busy intersections.

http://www.dianawest.net/Home/tabid/36/EntryId/2367/The-War-on-Free-Speech-the-War-on-Dispatch-International.aspx

DISPATCH INTERNATIONAL is a new weekly newspaper, for which, as some readers know, I am Washington correspondent. Our motto, from Thomas Jefferson, is “Freedom of the press cannot be limited without being lost.” Co-edited by Lars Hedegaard of Denmark and Ingrid Carlqvist of Sweden, veteran journalists of note in Europe and determined free-speech-warriors, the paper now appears in three languages: English, Danish and Swedish.

But powerful forces with deep pockets are trying to destroy Dispatch International even as we try to set up shop in the Public Square. Small as we are at this early date, we have come under intense and sustained and no doubt expensive hacker attack to deny us a place on the web. Such attacks have happened before, during our run-up to regular publication, as noted most recently last month here. Now, with the new year, the attacks have begun again. Someone — some people, some groups, some extremely repressive forces — don’t want us to publish our news and analysis. Why? Are Dispatch stories blasphemous? Non-Establishment? Challenging to the “official narrative”? Without a doubt — at least so far as those arbiters of “blasphemy,” keepers of “establlshment” doctrine, and creators or official narrative are concerned. We are simply trying to report what’s happening in a PC world, sans PC. Obviously, this frightens the PC-masters.

This means we are doing something that is not only right but also very potent: earth-shaking, even; threatening to the prevailing controls and self-controls on speech and debate in the so-called Free World. After all, imagine what citizens empowered with facts and stimulated by heterodox analysis might do. Even in their last gasps, they might reject “blasphemy,” vote out the Establishment, and debunk the official narrative.

No wonder we’re under attack. If you would care to strike a blow with us as we battle this barbaric totalitarianism, subscribe to Dispatch International today. Send an email expressing your interest in a subscription to subscribe@d-intl.com, and someone will be in touch with you soon with rates and terms.
