Talk about a double standard, Muslims want crosses removed from a Catholic University and ask Justice Dept. to criminalize criticism of Islam.

In recent news stories from Europe this past year, where there is a population density of Muslims twice as high as in America, there have been several court cases involving people who have criticized Islam. One notable case in The Netherlands had a member of Parliament accused of a hate crime because he read some violent passages from the Islamic Koran. In another case in Austria another activist faces jail for voicing similar criticism.
After nearly six months, a trial against Dutch firebrand Geert Wilders ended Thursday in Amsterdam. A court acquitted the right-wing populist politician on charges of incitement, racial hatred and discrimination against Muslims.
In his verdict, leading judge Marcel van Oosten said that, while Wilders' statements were indeed offensive to Muslims, they were also part of the legitimate political debate. Wilders' claim that Islam is a violent religion and his demands for an immigration ban for Muslims had to be viewed in the context of the larger societal debate about immigration policies, the judge argued. He said the statements could not be directly blamed for increasing levels of discrimination against Dutch Muslims.
 In Austria, a free speech activist has fallen foul of the law for expressing similar views being chorused by major European leaders. Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff says that after decades of mass immigration multicultural society is not working. She faces three years in prison for inciting religious hatred, after she criticized Islam and Sharia law.
Now, here in America, with a much smaller minority of Muslims but with one significant difference - they have a huge Muslim influence in the White House - a disproportionate minority of Muslims are calling for radical changes in our society. In spite of the Supreme Court ruling that the obnoxious group of people from the Westboro Baptist Church had every right to protest the funerals of American soldiers with signs that read "Thank God for IED's" and "Pray for more dead soldiers" because they had the right to free speech, we now read of Muslim demands to remove crosses from a Catholic University. But they are not content with just that. American Muslims have now petitioned the U.S. Dept. of Justice to find a way to criminalize our free speech when anyone criticizes Islam. Here are two stories that should make you very concerned.

Muslim leaders urge DOJ to criminalize criticism of Islam!

A particularly dangerous and noxious doctrine within sharia law is the prohibition against “blasphemy” or “defamation” of Islam and the prophet Mohammed.

This is a direct affront to our cherished first amendment right of free speech, as it silences any critique or criticism of Islam.

European countries are already prosecuting people for “hate speech” against Islam, in effect implementing the sharia prohibition. ACT! for America chapter leader Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff is one of those people. Canada’s Human Rights Commission went after author Mark Steyn. Could this eventually happen in the U.S.?

Consider the latest. Some Muslim leaders, including the head of ISNA (Islamic Society of North America, a Muslim Brotherhood front organization), recently urged Department of Justice officials to take steps to criminalize criticism of Islam (see article below, highlights added). They are calling criticism of Islam “discrimination” and “racist.”

Couple this with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s apparent recent embrace of the OIC (Organization of the Islamic Conference) push for a UN resolution calling for governments to criminalize defamation of religion.

This is serious folks! Can you see why we are putting so much emphasis on combating sharia law? They’re trying to confiscate our first amendment rights!!

You can help us fight back by signing the pledge of support to stop sharia in your state. If you haven’t yet done so, please do so today! Acting today could well protect your right to act tomorrow.




Muslims tell DOJ to find a way to crimalize criticism of Islam!

And cut back anti-terror funding amongst other things. Neil Munro with a very disturbing piece with absolutely unimaginable consequences when it becomes reality. And it will if we the People do not start protecting our freedoms.



Holder & Perez



Top Justice Department officials convened a meeting Wednesday where invited Islamist advocates lobbied them for cutbacks in anti-terror funding, changes in agents’ training manuals, additional curbs on investigators and a legal declaration that U.S. citizens’ criticism of Islam constitutes racial discrimination.

The department’s “civil rights lawyers are top of the line — I say this with utter honesty — I know they can come up with a way” to redefine criticism as discrimination, said Sahar Aziz, a female, Egyptian-American lawyer.

“I’d be willing to give a shot at it,” said Aziz, who is a fellow at the Michigan-based Muslim advocacy group, the Institute for Social Policy & Understanding.

The audience of Islamist advocates and department officials included Tom Perez, who heads the department’s division of civil rights.

“We must continue to have the open and honest and critical dialogue that you saw in the robust debate,” Perez responded in an enthusiastic closing speech a few minutes after Aziz made her demands at the event.

“I sat here the entire time, taking notes,” Perez said. “I have some very concrete thoughts … in the aftermath of this.”

The meeting at George Washington University showcased the expanding alliance between American progressives and Islamists, said Andrew McCarthy, a former federal prosecutor in New York.

Progressives “are making these Islamist groups into the [political] representatives of Muslims in the United States,” he told The Daily Caller. That elevation of Islamists to a leadership role sidelines the majority of American Muslims who don’t want Islamist leaders, as well as American Muslims who are female or gay, he said.

McCarthy investigated and prosecuted Egyptian-born Imam Omar Abdel-Rahman, dubbed “the blind sheik,” for urging Muslims to kill New Yorkers. Abdel-Rahman was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1996.

Progressives ally with the Islamic lobby because “they think it will be a political voting bloc that will be reliably Democratic,” said Robert Spencer, an author and expert on Islam.

None of the Islamist advocates of civil rights officials in attendance, including Perez, objected to Aziz’s call for free-speech restrictions.

The event did not include Zuhdi Jasser, an Arizona Muslim, former naval officer and a co-founder of a coalition of modernist Muslim groups, the American Islamic Leadership Coalition. “The Islamist groups’ victimology feeds into the left’s propaganda that the right is anti-minority and anti-Muslim, so there’s a mutual political benefit there,” said Jasser, who clashes with Spencer over rival responses to the Islamist groups.

Nor did the conference include any influential critics, such as McCarthy and Spencer, who argue that Islamist terror attacks are partly motivated by Islamic texts. These texts include the Koran’s verse 9:5, which says “when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them.”

Aziz, however, used her invitation to argue that Americans’ fear of Islamists’ bombs has evolved into racism towards dark-skinned men.

The word “Muslim,” she said, “has become racialized. … I don’t accept this formalistic cop-out that this is all about religion.”

Aziz did not offer any evidence for her claim, which she said justifies the use of Title VI anti-discrimination laws against institutions and individuals who argue that Islamic texts spur Islamic violence.

This legal redefinition, she said, would also “take [federal] money away from local police departments and fusion centers who are spying on all of us.”

Aziz also argued against the commonplace police practice of informally talking with people in communities, including Muslim communities. “This has been a real problem with this outreach stuff,” she said. Muslims “are acting in good faith, and then they find their imams, who were going to outreach meetings, were being spied on,” she complained. “Some have been deported. Some have been prosecuted.”

In March, Afghan-born New York Imam Ahmad Wais Afzali was ordered deported after he admitted he lied to the FBI about warning a suspected Muslim terrorist that he was being investigated. That terrorist, Najibullah Zazi, admitted that he was planning to place bombs in the New York City subway. The imam learned about the investigation because he had offered to work with local police to help identify potential terrorists in his congregation.

“People are going in good faith” to talk with police, Aziz said. “They’re being very honest about what their grievances are. They’re telling the government, ‘This what we want you to do … [and] we want you not to spy on our community.’”

Dwight Holton, a Justice Department legal counsel based in Oregon, said the threat of criminal gangs or terror attacks justifies routine police contacts with locals. “When we go to a barber shop to talk to the community, we don’t tell them you can have a lawyer,” he said.

“You should,” Aziz immediately replied.

Aziz’s advocacy was supported by a second Islamist advocate, Islamic Society of North America president Mohamed Magid. He argued that “teaching people that all Muslims are a threat to the country… is against the law and the Constitution.” [Editor’s note: no one we know of, including ACT! for America, is teaching that “all Muslims are a threat to the country.”]

Magid asked Perez to change the federal government’s rules governing terror investigations, for more private meetings with top justice department officials, for the reeducation of FBI agents, and for more people to oppose criticism of Islam, which he labelled “religious bigotry and hate.”

From Jihad Watch:
Crucifixes? At a Catholic university? How about that.
Of course, at the heart of this complaint is the hope of establishing a Muslim prayer space on the campus that would be subject to different standards than the rest of the university -- a little enclave of Islamic law where its ban on the display of crosses would be "respected."
It is mentioned below that Muslim students say they like CUA because they feel "safe" and "comfortable." They are receiving the benefits of what Catholics have built at CUA, but are expecting more. They want to bend the institution to their own purposes for their own "comfort."
They think it's a fine place, if it just weren't so, you know, Catholic, and therefore un-Islamic. "University Accused of Discriminating Against Muslims," from CUA's The Tower, October 20 (thanks to B.):
New charges have recently been filed against the University on counts of illegal discrimination against its Muslim and female students. The allegations are being reviewed by the District of Colombia Office of Human Rights (OHR), which has the strictest discrimination laws in the country. President John H. Garvey and the University is being urged to respond to the charges.
John F. Banzhaf III, the George Washington University Professor of Public Interest Law who initiated the legal controversy surrounding same-sex residence halls, is also the one behind these new charges.
You'll want to read this sitting down:
The official allegations claim that CUA, “does not provide space – as other universities do – for the many daily prayers Muslim students must make, forcing them instead to find temporarily empty classrooms where they are often surrounded by Catholic symbols which are incongruous to their religion,” according to a press release on PRLOG.com.
This formal complaint also maintains that the new same-sex residence halls are particularly discriminating against female students, which is a new position on the same-sex lawsuit that began last month.
For both aspects of the complaint: it's a Catholic university, a private institution. No one is being forced to attend it. On the other hand, its very nature and identity puts a giant target on it for social engineering.
Banzhaf claims that the University is denying Muslim students the same benefits that students of other religions are able to enjoy since there is no formal Muslim association sponsored by Catholic University but the Columbus School of Law has an association for Jewish students
“Denying Muslim students the opportunity for form a student group on campus could hardly be based upon any fundamental Catholic doctrine since Georgetown University not only has such a Muslim student group, but also provides its Muslim students with a separate prayer room and even a Muslim chaplain,” said Banzhaf in that press release.
“An important reason [that Muslims are gravitating towards Catholic universities] is that the Muslim students, especially those who are observant, feel comfortable and safe at the institution,” said President Garvey in an interview with NPR in December of 2010. “It’s a place where their own faith practices are mirrored by our own. And they feel both welcome and understood at the campus.”
Gentlemen, start your platitudes:
“Even though it’s a Catholic school, a lot of its teachings are very similar to Islam,” said Al Salmi. “It teaches respect, community service, love, worship etc. which are things that Islam also teaches.”
The discrimination charge asserts that although OHR has been investigating alleged discrimination on campus since Banzhaf’s lawsuit began, “neither the President nor anyone else speaking for the University has sought to explain to the public, or even to CUA’s own students, why it believes that its discrimination does not violate the Human Rights Act.”
“As University spokesman, I have repeatedly explained to anyone who has asked me, including the media, that we reject the premise of Banzhaf’s argument, namely that single-sex residence halls are discriminatory,” said Victor Nakas, University Vice President of Public Affairs. “And we also reject his assumption that the Human Rights Act requires residence halls to be co-ed.”
That does a fine job of illustrating the mindset at work here. Rules and standards are hate and discrimination.
As these charges are being considered by the Office of Human Rights, the University administration said they will continue to work towards the betterment of its students.
“Catholic University is committed to the religious freedom and dignity of all members of its community,” said Nakas. “This includes the dozens of Muslims who come to the University for its academic excellence as well as its demonstrated history of outreach and dialogue to people of all faiths.”

Professor's 'Death to Israel' Rant Sparks Controversy at Kent State University

By Todd Starnes
Published October 28, 2011


A Kent State University professor allegedly with former ties to a jihadist website shouted “Death to Israel” at a public lecture delivered on the Ohio campus by a former Israeli diplomat.

The outburst came during a presentation this week by Ismael Khaldi, a former deputy counsel general at the Israeli consulate in San Francisco. During the question and answer period, KSU history professor Julio Pino launched a series of provocative questions at Khaldi.

At some point, the professor shouted “Death to Israel” and then stormed out of the building. The event was first reported by the KSU student news site KentWired.

KSU president Lester Lefton, who is Jewish, denounced Pino’s outburst, calling it “reprehensible and an embarrassment to our university.”

At the same time, he defended Pino’s free speech rights. (emphasis mine)

“It may have been professor Pino’s right to do so, but it is my obligation, as the president of this university, to say that I find his words deplorable and his behavior deeply troubling,” his statement read.
Pino, who is originally from Cuba and a convert to Islam, did not return calls for comment.
Now, of course, if a Jew had shouted out "Death to Islam" he would have been immediately branded by the news media as a bigot, but a Muslim is forgiven for expressing his hate speech. And, ironically, the person who forgave him was a Jew. That is what makes the difference in America.

Obama: The Affirmative Action President

Obama: The Affirmative Action President
By Matt Patterson

Years from now, historians may regard the 2008 election of Barack Obama as an inscrutable and disturbing phenomenon, a baffling breed of mass hysteria akin perhaps to the witch craze of the Middle Ages.  How, they will wonder, did a man so devoid of professional accomplishment beguile so many into thinking he could manage the world's largest economy, direct the world's most powerful military, execute the world's most consequential job?

Imagine a future historian examining Obama's pre-presidential life: ushered into and through the Ivy League despite unremarkable grades and test scores along the way; a cushy non-job as a "community organizer"; a brief career as a state legislator devoid of legislative achievement (and in fact nearly devoid of his attention, so often did he vote "present"); and finally an unaccomplished single term in United States Senate, the entirety of which was devoted to his presidential ambitions.  He left no academic legacy in academia, authored no signature legislation as legislator.

And then there is the matter of his troubling associations: the white-hating, America-loathing preacher who for decades served as Obama's "spiritual mentor"; a real-life, actual terrorist who served as Obama's colleague and political sponsor.  It is easy to imagine a future historian looking at it all and asking: how on Earth was such a man elected president?

Not content to wait for history, the incomparable Norman Podhoretz addressed the question recently in the Wall Street Journal:
    To be sure, no white candidate who had close associations with an outspoken hater of America like Jeremiah Wright and an unrepentant terrorist like Bill Ayers would have lasted a single day. But because Mr. Obama was black, and therefore entitled in the eyes of liberaldom to have hung out with protesters against various American injustices, even if they were a bit extreme, he was given a pass.
Let that sink in: Obama was given a pass -- held to a lower standard -- because of the color of his skin.  Podhoretz continues:
    And in any case, what did such ancient history matter when he was also articulate and elegant and (as he himself had said) "non-threatening," all of which gave him a fighting chance to become the first black president and thereby to lay the curse of racism to rest?
Podhoretz puts his finger, I think, on the animating pulse of the Obama phenomenon -- affirmative action.  Not in the legal sense, of course.  But certainly in the motivating sentiment behind all affirmative action laws and regulations, which are designed primarily to make white people, and especially white liberals, feel good about themselves.

Communist revolution in our streets.

Watch this video and decide for yourself if this isn't a Communist Revolution. Right on American soil.
Are "Occupiers" Like The Tea Party?


Pete Seeger and Arlo Guthrie joined Occupy Wall Street demonstrators Friday in their campaign against Wall Street. The icons from the 1960's socialist movement joined the Democratic Socialists of America, which happens to be the largest block of leftists within the Democratic Party in the U.S. Congress. Also present were sign carriers representing every other left wing group in America. The video says it all.

Making fun of the enemy.

The liberal Democrats own the news media. Everyone knows that. That's why they get to slant the news to their own advantage and make everyone else look bad. It works. We know it does because they have created an ignorant, uninformed electorate. Electorate is a word that means voters, the people who keep getting Democrats elected. Liberal Democrats also own the entertainment industry. Democrats learned a long time ago that making fun of your opponents by constantly jabbing them with barbs of humor tends to diminish their credibility. Take the popular TV show, Saturday Night Live, and look at what they've done to Sarah Palin with their slanderous dialogue. The endless stream of mockery and ridicule coming from dozens of so-called comedy shows every night almost borders on hate speech, but liberals are immune from prosecution for a crime they invented to be used only against conservatives. That's what is so good about the Internet. We conservatives don't need millions of dollars to buy newspapers and television stations. The Democrats know that, too, so they decided to "take over" the Internet with an unconstitutional power grab by the FCC. Meanwhile, sit back and enjoy a little humorous payback.
A DC ‘airport ticket agent' offers some examples of why the US is in so much trouble! 
Keep in mind that they got these jobs by having the most people vote for them. So much for voter education.

1. I had a New Hampshire Congresswoman (Carol Shea-Porter) ask for an aisle seat so that her hair wouldn't get messed up by being near the window. (On an airplane!)

2. I got a call from a Kansas Congressman's (Moore) staffer (Howard Bauleke), who wanted to go to Cape Town. I started to explain the length of the flight and the passport information, and then he interrupted me with, ''I'm not trying to make you look stupid, but Cape Town is in Massachusetts ..''

Without trying to make him look stupid, I calmly explained, ''Cape Cod is in Massachusetts , Cape Town is in South Africa ..''
His response -- click..

3. A senior Vermont Congressman (Bernie Sanders) called, furious about a Florida package we did. I asked what was wrong with the vacation in Orlando . He said he was expecting an ocean-view room. I tried to explain that's not possible, since Orlando is in the middle of the state.

He replied, 'Don't lie to me!, I looked on the map, and Florida is a very THIN state!!'' (OMG)

4. I got a call from a lawmaker's wife (Landra Reid) who asked, ''Is it possible to see England from Canada ?''

I said, ''No.''

She said, ''But they look so close on the map'' (OMG, again!)

5. An aide for a cabinet member (Janet Napolitano) once called and asked if he could rent a car in Dallas .. I pulled up the reservation and noticed he had only a 1-hour layover in Dallas ... When I asked him why he wanted to rent a car, he said, ''I heard Dallas was a big airport, and we will need a car to drive between gates to save time.'' (Aghhhh)

6. An Illinois Congresswoman (Jan Schakowsky) called last week.. She needed to know how it was possible that her flight from Detroit left at 8:30 a.m., and got to Chicago at 8:33 a.m.

I explained that Michigan was an hour ahead of Illinois , but she couldn't understand the concept of time zones. Finally, I told her the plane went fast, and she bought that.

7. A New York lawmaker, (Jerrold Nadler) called and asked, ''Do airlines put your physical description on your bag so they know whose luggage belongs to whom?'' I said, 'No, why do you ask?'

He replied, ''Well, when I checked in with the airline, they put a tag on my luggage that said (FAT), and I'm overweight. I think that's very rude!''

After putting him on hold for a minute, while I looked into it. (I was dying laughing). I came back and explained the city code for Fresno , Ca. is (FAT - Fresno Air Terminal), and the airline was just putting a destination tag on his luggage..

8. A Senator John Kerry aide (Lindsay Ross) called to inquire about a trip package to Hawaii . After going over all the cost info, she asked, ''Would it be cheaper to fly to California and then take the train to Hawaii ?''

9. I just got off the phone with a freshman Congressman, Bobby Bright from Ala who asked, ''How do I know which plane to get on?''

I asked him what exactly he meant, to which he replied, ''I was told my flight number is 823, but none of these planes have numbers on them.''

10 Senator Dianne Feinstein called and said, ''I need to fly to Pepsi-Cola, Florida. Do I have to get on one of those little computer planes?''

I asked if she meant fly to Pensacola and fly on a commuter plane.

She said, ''Yeah, whatever, smarty!''

11 Mary Landrieu, La. Senator, called and had a question about the documents she needed in order to fly to China . After a lengthy discussion about passports, I reminded her that she needed a visa. "Oh, no I don't. I've been to China many times and never had to have one of those.''

I double checked and sure enough, her stay required a visa. When I told her this she said, ''Look, I've been to China four times and every time they have accepted my American Express!''

12 A New Jersey Congressman (John Adler) called to make reservations, ''I want to go from Chicago to Rhino, New York .''

I was at a loss for words. Finally, I said, ''Are you sure that's the name of the town?''

'Yes, what flights do you have?'' replied the man.

After some searching, I came back with, ''I'm sorry, sir, I've looked up every airport code in the country and can't find a rhino anywhere."

''The man retorted, ''Oh, don't be silly! Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!''

So I scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, ''You don't mean Buffalo , do you?''

The reply? ''Whatever! I knew it was a big animal.''

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Go ahead and check this out on Snopes. They seem to have become the unofficial cover-up people that liberals love to quote most. And just to clarify this point, the above "DC Airport ticket agent" jokes are just that, jokes. They have appeared before without names. Snopes realizes how powerful political humor, (make that ridicule) is that they went to the trouble of debunking these jokes. And really, folks, who needs to debunk a joke, anyway? Maybe that is because all the names mentioned are Democrats. Now, if only they would treat conservatives and Republicans the same way.

Now you know why the Government is in the shape it's in!

Could ANYONE be this DUMB?

YES, THEY WALK AMONG US, ARE IN POLITICS, AND THEY CONTINUE TO BREED.

I don't write it, I just offer it for your consideration. Like manure, you just gotta spread it around.

Here's one former Pan Am employee who is also glad Gadhafi is dead.

From WorldNet Daily News:
NEW YORK – Just two months short of the 23rd anniversary of the bombing of Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, on Dec. 21, 1988, the man who many believed ordered the mass executions was himself killed outside his hometown in Libya today.
Moammar Gadhafi was reported to have been slain outside his birthplace of Sirte by rebels who overran one of the last cities not controlled by the new transitional government.
For the families of Pan Am 103, the death of the mercurial Libyan strongman meant some closure can finally begin on one of the worst terrorist attacks of the 20th century. The bombing left a total of 270 killed: 259 on board the Pan Am flight and 11 on the ground.
As a former employee of Pan Am, I also welcomed the death of Moammar Gadhafi. The bombing of Pan Am flight 103 took place just three years before the airline went out of business. The ensuing investigation had pointed out some security flaws at the Frankfurt, Germany base that may have allowed the Libyan terrorist's bomb to be placed on board the airplane. The horrific consequences of that terrorist act set the stage for a downward spiral that Pan Am was never able to recover from. I worked for Pan Am in New York City at JFK International Airport for the last 30 years of its existence, from 1962 to 1991 and I saw first hand the later part of the history of the "world's most experienced airline". The same airline that pioneered air travel, built airports in South America and across the Pacific and "taught the world how to fly".
Certificate given to passengers crossing the Equator. Click to enlarge.
Throughout most of the history of Pan Am the airline was a symbol of the United States of America and because of that it was a favorite target for every would-be terrorist and hijacker who had a grievance against America. In 1948 the Soviet Union had cut off food and fuel to the American sector of West Berlin and Pan American World Airways flew those needed supplies into West Berlin during the Berlin Airlift. During its later years several Pan Am aircraft were either hijacked or blown up by Middle Eastern terrorist groups. During the Vietnam War, Pam Am provided the R & R (Rest and Recreation) flights for American troops between Saigon and Tokyo. A Pan Am L-1011 was the last flight out of Saigon that evacuated children and personnel just before the city was overrun.
In 1976, prior to airline de-regulation, Pan Am employees opposed government rule that kept airline from serving US cities. 
During the Persian Gulf War (2 August 1990 – 28 February 1991), more than a dozen of Pan Am's fleet of B-747s were called into service to participate in sending military equipment to Saudi Arabia as part of the CRAF program. The Civil Reserve Air Fleet is part of the United States's mobility resources. Selected aircraft from U.S. airlines, contractually committed to Civil Reserve Air Fleet, support United States Department of Defense airlift requirements in emergencies when the need for airlift exceeds the capability of military aircraft. That war effort contributed to Pan Am's loss of revenue due to the cancellation of many passenger flights because of equipment shortages. Eight months later the company shut down forever.
Pan Am may be one airline out of many that no longer flies but it is surely one that is not forgotten. I am so grateful that those who helped bring it down have finally paid the ultimate price for their crimes.

Will the Occupy Wall Street movement precipitate the call for Marshall Law that Obama needs to postpone the 2012 elections?

The demonstrations have already started in numerous cities across America. Because they have been peaceful, so far, the local politicians haven't stopped them and also because the ring leaders have been identified as the same communists, Marxists and socialists that helped Barack Hussein Obama to get elected. In other words the demonstrators have acquired privileged status. The catchphrases being chanted from their soapboxes even appeal to some conservatives to create the air of broad political support for the 99% Occupy movement. The only element not represented yet are the true unemployed, homeless people but the free food may bring them out.
It is not inconceivable to imagine the scene becoming ugly and violent. Barack Hussein Obama desperately needs to get reelected or to find another way to stay in office beyond 2012. Obama's popularity poll today is half of what it was in 2008 because three years ago no one really knew who he was. All we had then was the phony hype created by the leftist news media but now all that has changed. Now Obama is probably reminding himself of the words of wisdom taught to him by Rahm Emanuel, "Never let a crisis go to waste." All he needs to do is throw more fuel on the fire to excite the masses into violence so he can call out the National Guard to regain the peace. And while this is happening and blood is flowing in the streets he will establish Martial Law across America. We all know that when that happens it won't bring about a rapid peace, it will take forever. So in order to maintain public safety it will be necessary to postpone the elections. Just for a little while.

  

Muslim turned Christian (?) Barack Hussein Obama sends US troops to Uganda to protect huge population of Muslims from a few hundred Christians.

The headline seems improbable, Obama has sent US troops to wage war against a band of Christians in a predominantly Muslim country, but closer examination shows us where Obama's loyalties really are. As Obama once said he would always stand with the Muslims but no one questioned him about that. Here is a compilation of stories taken from the Australian web site Winds of Jihad. Oh, and one part that didn't get much coverage, billionaire George Soros has some financial interests in Uganda and Obama is sort of beholding to him for helping him get elected.

Uganda: Hussein Obama Sends U.S. Troops to Wage Jihad Against Christians

by sheikyermami on October 17, 2011
 Al Jizz is jubilant over America’s latest war…  against Uganda’s Christians
Don’t believe the propaganda you’ll find about the Lord’s Resistance Army written in Wikipedia. They are freedom fighters in a civil war against Muslims.
The last time I checked Uganda had a problem with Islamic terrorism, not with Christians. Whenever I think about Uganda, the Israeli raid on Entebbe and  Idi Amin, the muselmanic cannibal of Uganda come to mind.
Remember this:  Earlier this year the Ivory Coast was overrun by the soldiers of Allah who demographically amounted only to 20 % of the population. Now Ivory Coast is another Muselmanic hell, governed by a Muslim minority who infiltrated from the north. They’re not even native to Ivory Coast.
    Lord’s Resistance Army objectives:  
    “To remove dictatorship and stop the oppression of our people.”
    Now, again Lord’s Resistance Army is who Obama sent troops to help nations wipe out. The objectives of the Lord’s Resistance Army, what they’re trying to accomplish with their military action in these countries is the following: “To remove dictatorship and stop the oppression of our people; to fight for the immediate restoration of the competitive multiparty democracy in Uganda; to see an end to gross violation of human rights and dignity of Ugandans; to ensure the restoration of peace and security in Uganda, to ensure unity, sovereignty, and economic prosperity beneficial to all Ugandans, and to bring to an end the repressive policy of deliberate marginalization of groups of people who may not agree with the LRA ideology.” Those are the objectives of the group that we are fighting, or who are being fought and we are joining in the effort to remove them from the battlefield.
    The government of Uganda claims that Lord’s Resistance Army only has 500 or a thousand soldiers in total. So what’s the threat? If that’s the maximum size of their army, what’s the threat? 
    This travel warning from the Australian gov’t doesn’t mention anything about ‘Christian’ terrorism, but it mentions jihad.
    Are you startled by the fact that  the U.S. is fighting on behalf of  Islamic terrorists?
    Scroll down on the above link to catch up on some recent history…..
    Atlas Shrugs:
    Obama’s 5th War: Sends US Troops into ………. Africa
    US troops in Africa? To fight a hotbed of al Qaeda franchise groups? No. Troops will be sent to central Africa, and, following the approval of each nation, will deploy in the nations of Uganda, South Sudan, the Central African Republic and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, to fight the “Lords Resistance Army.” Huh?
    He is entering yet another war against who? Al Shabaab? Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula? Hamas? Hezb’Allah? Jama’at al-Tabligh? Jama’at ul Fuqra? Lashkar-e Tayyiba? The Muslim Brotherhood? Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Islamic Jihad Union? Al-Muhajiroun? Hizb ut Tahrir? No. The LRA. We need to analyze Obama’s priorities and …….. choices.

    Uganda: “US help against rebels overdue
    Minister says Kampala has been pleading for help for years as US troops arrive to help fight Lord’s Resistance Army.
    Uganda’s foreign minister has welcomed the deployment of US troops to help the country battle Lord’s Resistance Army rebels, but said the contingent of 100 combat-ready advisors was “well overdue”.

    “For 20 years, the government of Uganda has been pleading with our American and European friends to help in the LRA problem, because these are international terrorists,” said Henry Okello Oryem, Uganda’s acting foreign minister, on Saturday.
    “We wanted our friends to help in providing technical support, such as intelligence, because they have the best.”
    Emira Woods, co-director of Foreign Policy in Focus, told Al Jazeera the fact that Uganda has oil played a factor in sending troops to the country.
    “It goes back to one thing: oil. Lets remember Uganda has oil. It changes the calculus always with US foreign policy when it is a country that seems to be rich with this resource that has become almost an addiction for the US and the global economy.” (More from Al Jizz)
    What does the Lord’s Resistance Army  want?
    Strange. If that’s not  fanciful I don’t know what is.  Since when are the 10 commandments a threat to the U.S.? 
    I have no problems with the 10 Commandments. I smell an Obama rat.
    This whole thing stinks to high heaven. Clinton also bombed the Christian Serbs in Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, to establish a Muselmanic-Narco-Jihad Reichlet. Slick Willie also burned some 100 wacky Christians in Waco, Texas, who had themselves hauled up in a compound. Are the Klintoons ever responsible for anything?
    Earlier this year the Ivory Coast was overrun by the soldiers of Allah. Insurgents from the north, who demographically amounted to only 20 % of the population. Insurgents who are not even native to the Ivory Coast.
    1000 Christians were murdered and their churches burned, and Hillary Clinton couldn’t push the Islamization of the Ivory Coast through the UN fast enough.
     Hussein Obama demands Christian President step down so Muslim challenger can take over
     Faith Freedom – Alassane Ouattara is being supported by America, Europe and the United Nations and it is noticeable that once the forces who are loyal to the Christian leader, Laurent Gbagbo, were bombed by France and the UN; then the Muslim led forces of Alassane Ouattara began their onslaught and massacres are ensuing.
    The Obamster’s loyalty is always with his Muslim brothers:
    Here’s more (from Rush Limbaugh):
    Obama Invades Uganda, Targets Christians
    October 14, 2011
    BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
    RUSH: President Obama has deployed troops to another war, in Africa, ladies and gentlemen. Jacob Tapper, ABC News, is reporting that Obama has sent 100 US troops to Uganda to help combat Lord’s Resistance Army. Tapper reporting today: “Two days ago President Obama authorized the deployment to Uganda of approximately 100 combat-equipped U.S. forces to help regional forces ‘remove from the battlefield’ — meaning capture or kill — Lord’s Resistance Army leader Joseph Kony and senior leaders of the LRA.” I wonder how the Wall Street crowd is gonna react when they find out that Obama has sent troops to another war? “Mr. Limbaugh, it’s just 100 peacekeepers.” Yep, yep, yep, that’s how Libya started, and, by the way, there’s no end in sight for Libya.
    “The forces will deploy beginning with a small group and grow over the next month to 100. They will ultimately go to Uganda, South Sudan, the Central African Republic, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.” A hundred people are gonna go to all those places? “The president made this announcement in a letter to House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, Friday afternoon, saying that ‘deploying these U.S. Armed Forces furthers U.S. national security interests and foreign policy and will be a significant contribution toward counter-LRA efforts in central Africa.’” LRA is Lord’s Resistance Army. And it doesn’t mean God’s resistance army. Lord is some Lord, some guy. A “Defense Department official tells ABC’s Luis Martinez at the Pentagon that the U.S. troops will be in Africa ‘for a few months in an advisory role.’” One hundred troops in an advisory role.
    So nothing to worry about here, folks, only gonna be for a few months. Now, up until today, most Americans have never heard of the combat Lord’s Resistance Army. And here we are at war with them. Have you ever heard of Lord’s Resistance Army, Dawn? How about you, Brian? Snerdley, have you? You never heard of Lord’s Resistance Army? Well, proves my contention, most Americans have never heard of it, and here we are at war with them. Lord’s Resistance Army are Christians. It means God. I was only kidding. Lord’s Resistance Army are Christians. They are fighting the Muslims in Sudan. And Obama has sent troops, United States troops to remove them from the battlefield, which means kill them. That’s what the lingo means, “to help regional forces remove from the battlefield,” meaning capture or kill.
    So that’s a new war, a hundred troops to wipe out Christians in Sudan, Uganda, and — (interruption) no, I’m not kidding. Jacob Tapper just reported it. Now, are we gonna help the Egyptians wipe out the Christians? Wouldn’t you say that we are? I mean the Coptic Christians are being wiped out, but it wasn’t just Obama that supported that. The conservative intelligentsia thought it was an outbreak of democracy. Now they’ve done a 180 on that, but they forgot that they supported it in the first place. Now they’re criticizing it.
    Lord’s Resistance Army objectives. I have them here. “To remove dictatorship and stop the oppression of our people.” Now, again Lord’s Resistance Army is who Obama sent troops to help nations wipe out. The objectives of the Lord’s Resistance Army, what they’re trying to accomplish with their military action in these countries is the following: “To remove dictatorship and stop the oppression of our people; to fight for the immediate restoration of the competitive multiparty democracy in Uganda; to see an end to gross violation of human rights and dignity of Ugandans; to ensure the restoration of peace and security in Uganda, to ensure unity, sovereignty, and economic prosperity beneficial to all Ugandans, and to bring to an end the repressive policy of deliberate marginalization of groups of people who may not agree with the LRA ideology.” Those are the objectives of the group that we are fighting, or who are being fought and we are joining in the effort to remove them from the battlefield.
    The government of Uganda claims that Lord’s Resistance Army only has 500 or a thousand soldiers in total. So what’s the threat? If that’s the maximum size of their army, what’s the threat? A thousand soldiers? Now, 1100 soldiers because we have sent a hundred. I’m not making this up. This is Jacob Tapper. ABC News had reported that Obama got a letter off to John Boehner a couple days ago announcing this. It’s just for a few months until the Lord’s Resistance Army is eradicated. That’s all. Just a few months. Not much of a threat.

    In the shadow of the Christian cross. A new thought on why the Florence mosque site was sold.


    Three years ago a group of Muslims in Florence purchased a 5.5 acre parcel of land for $200,000 located on Cayton Road between a residential neighborhood and the highly developed Florence Mall shopping area. Two years later the group, called The Mercy Foundation, announced their plans to build a mosque on this land and in spite of the residential community becoming very alarmed the City of Florence did nothing. Then, last week, the news came out that The Mercy Foundation had sold this property to the New Plan Property Holding Company, a division of Centro Properties, one of the developers of the Florence Square group of stores, for a whopping $950,000. In the midst of this economic recession Centro Properties said they plan to expand their commercial development onto this property which sits on the side of Cayton Road right behind their stores on Mall Road. See the map from the Property Valuation Administration. Click the image for a larger view.
    Speculation arises why this property suddenly increased almost 5 times in value in just three years during one of the worst economic downturns in history. One thought that came to mind was that the developer who owned the stores did not want a large mosque built next to their business and basically bought the property out of desperation to keep it vacant. Then I read a story about an event that took place half way around the world in Egypt that shed some light on this situation. You may have read some whitewashed version in the local press. Hundreds of outraged Muslims had stormed out of a mosque in Egypt last week and burned down a Coptic Christian church killing dozens of innocent people because this church was installing some Christian symbols during a government-approved renovation. It was the installation of crosses that had caused the Muslims to burn down the church because “the cross irritates Muslims and their children”. Columnist Diana West wrote about this on her web site:
    Destruction of Copts Is Islamically Correct

    Written by: Diana West
    Friday, October 14, 2011 3:28 AM
    Raymond Ibrahim, an Islam specialist, Arabic speaker and author of "The Al Qaeda Reader" (Broadway, 2007), catalogs the key sequence of events that turned a church renovation project into terror and flames. With repair work in progress, he writes online at Hudson New York, "It was not long before local Muslims began complaining, making various demands, including that the church be devoid of crosses and bells – even though the permit approved them – citing that 'the cross irritates Muslims and their children.'"
    So I went back to Google Maps and looked at the area where this property was located on Cayton Road in Florence, Kentucky and discovered that it was surrounded by Christian churches all adorned with crosses. The same cross that is hated so much in the Islamic religion and causes Muslims so much discomfort and fits of murderous rage. Here is a satellite view of that same area on Cayton Road showing the churches. Click the image for a larger view.
    The three churches in this photo are only a few of the many in the area. Google lists more than a dozen. But the proximity to the original mosque site gives weight to the speculation that if “the cross irritates Muslims and their children” here in America as well as it does in the Middle East but you can't burn down the church in America you need a different solution. So an exorbitant offer to buy the property by a developer who may have just wanted to keep a mosque away from his business plus a possible desire to avoid being surrounded by crosses was a win win situation and the good people on Cayton Road and the surrounding neighborhoods all got to enjoy the results. No one in their right mind (except Barack Hussein Obama who called it the "most beautiful sound he ever heard" and every other Muslim in America) wants to hear the amplified call to prayers that come from these mosques 5 times a day, 7 days a week.  If you are not familiar with that daily ear-splitting event that begins in the middle of the night, here is a recording for you to listen to.

    Persecution in the Muslim world

    Persecution in the
    Muslim world


    Dear Nelson,

    Whenever there is an attempted or successful Islamic terrorist attack in the U.S., leaders of groups like CAIR and ISNA, and their enablers and apologists, immediately wring their hands about a potential “backlash” against Muslims.

    While such a backlash is always hard to find, as illustrated by the declining number of hate crimes against Muslims over the past few years, a real story of persecution is ignored by most of our media, government, and academia; most of our churches; and, of course, CAIR, ISNA, and their enablers. (It is refreshing to see that the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom is demanding an investigation of recent events in Cairo).

    It is a 1,400 year old story of jihad, of the persecution of Christians, Jews, Hindus, and those of other faiths, at the hands of militant Muslims. A story that is being played out now right before our eyes, and reported on below (highlights added).




    The forgotten Christians of the East

    By Caroline B. Glick

    It is unclear what either Western governments or Western churches think they are achieving by turning a blind eye to the persecution of Christians in the Muslim world


    http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | On Sunday night, Egyptian Copts staged what was supposed to be a peaceful vigil at Egypt's state television headquarters in Cairo. The 1,000 Christians represented the ancient Christian community of some 8 million whose presence in Egypt predates the establishment of Islam by several centuries. They gathered in Cairo to protest the recent burning of two churches by Islamic mobs and the rapid escalation of state-supported violent attacks on Christians by Muslim groups since the overthrow of former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak in February.

    According to Coptic sources, the protesters Sunday night were beset by Islamic attackers who were rapidly backed up by military forces. Between 19 and 40 Copts were killed by soldiers and Muslim attackers. They were run over by military vehicles, beaten, shot and dragged through the streets of Cairo.

    State television Sunday night reported only that three soldiers had been killed. According to al-Ahram Online, the military attacked the studios of al-Hurra television on Sunday night to block its broadcast of information on the military assault on the Copts.

    Apparently the attempt to control information about what happened worked. Monday's news reports about the violence gave little indication of the identity of the dead or wounded. They certainly left untold the story of what actually happened in Cairo on Sunday night.

    In a not unrelated event, Lebanon's Maronite Catholic Patriarch Bechara Rai caused a storm two weeks ago. During an official visit to Paris, Rai warned French President Nicolas Sarkozy that the fall of the Assad regime in Syria could be a disaster for Christians in Syria and throughout the region. Today the Western-backed Syrian opposition is dominated by the Muslim Brotherhood. Rai cautioned that the overthrow of President Bashar Assad could lead to civil war and the establishment of an Islamic regime.

    In Iraq, the Iranian and Syrian-sponsored insurgency that followed the US-led overthrow of Saddam Hussein's Baathist regime in 2003 fomented a bloody jihad against Iraq's Christian population. This month marks the anniversary of last year's massacre of 58 Christian worshippers in a Catholic church in Baghdad. A decade ago there were 800,000 Christians in Iraq. Today there are 150,000.

    Under the Shah of Iran, Iran's Christians were more or less free to practice their religion.

    Today, they are subject to the whims of Islamic overlords who know no law other than Islamic supremacism.

    Take the plight of Yousef Nadarkhani, an evangelical Protestant preacher who was arrested two years ago, tried and sentenced to death for apostasy and refusal to disavow his Christian faith. There is no law against apostasy in Iran, but no matter. Ayatollah Khomeini opposed apostasy. And so does Islamic law.

    Once Nadarkhani's story was publicized in the West the Iranians changed their course.

    Now they have reportedly abandoned the apostasy charge and are sentencing Nadarkhani to death for rape. The fact that he was never charged or convicted of rape is neither here nor there.

    Palestinian Christians have similarly suffered under their popularly elected governments.

    When the Palestinian Authority was established in 1994, Christians made up 80 percent of Bethlehem's population. Today they comprise less than 20% of the population.

    Since Hamas "liberated" Gaza in 2007, the area's ancient Christian minority has been under constant attack. With only 3,000 members, Gaza's Christian community has seen its churches, convents, book stores and libraries burned by Hamas members and their allies. Its members have been killed and assaulted. While Hamas has pledged to protect the Christians of Gaza, no one has been arrested for anti-Christian violence.

    JUST AS the Jews of the Islamic world were forcibly removed from their ancient communities by the Arab rulers with the establishment of Israel in 1948, so Christians have been persecuted and driven out of their homes. Populist Islamic and Arab regimes have used Islamic religious supremacism and Arab racial chauvinism against Christians as rallying cries to their subjects. These calls have in turn led to the decimation of the Christian populations of the Arab and Islamic world.

    For instance, at the time of Lebanese independence from France in 1946 the majority of Lebanese were Christians. Today less than 30% of Lebanese are Christians. [Editor’s note: This is the history Lebanese-born Brigitte Gabriel knows from personal experience.] In Turkey, the Christian population has dwindled from 2 million at the end of World War I to less than 100,000 today. In Syria, at the time of independence Christians made up nearly half of the population. Today 4% of Syrians are Christian. In Jordan half a century ago 18% of the population was Christian. Today 2% of Jordanians are Christian.

    Christians are prohibited from practicing Christianity in Saudi Arabia. In Pakistan, the Christian population is being systematically destroyed by regime-supported Islamic groups. Church burnings, forced conversions, rape, murder, kidnap and legal persecution of Pakistani Christians has become a daily occurrence.

    The Occupiers’ Siren Song

    The Occupiers’ Siren Song

    By: Terresa Monroe-Hamilton


     
    NY Daily News
    Occupy Wall Street is a movement that has been planned and executed by Marxists in America. There may be lots of useful idiots at play in the movement, but nevertheless, if you follow the money and influence, you find the likes of Democratic Socialists of America, ACORN, SEIU, the DNC, the Obama administration, the Working Families Party, the New Party, Tides and of course, that old evil spider, George Soros.
    So far, so good, right? Them bad, us good… You can imagine my horror when I heard of how the left was seducing Conservatives and Libertarians to the dark side. Some of the things they say ‘are‘ what we are saying. But as Beck says, watch out who you stand next to. And while you are at it, watch out for their agenda. I fear we will lose many patriots to the Occupy Wall Street movement using the guise of stopping bailouts. Don’t get me wrong… I’m all for ending bailouts. There should never have been any – period. Just not this way. You can’t stand with Marxists and not be tainted by their goals, no matter how noble the cause seems.

    Last week, I received word that Oath Keepers was joining Garrett John LoPorto and the Wayseer movement. LoPorto heads Occupy Boston. This turns out to not be quite accurate and Oath Keepers claims that LoPorto is only a volunteer. In fact, he has since been removed as even a volunteer. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt since I know many loyal patriots who belong to that organization. They had an editor who got carried away after seeing a video and reading a book. It happens – but rest assured, that before anything like that would ever occur at Oath Keepers, there would be a full investigation and a vote on it. These are Constitutionalists and real American patriots. But I would suggest that they stay far, far away from Occupy Boston if they can. Marxists of a feather flock together and recruit heavily from the masses.

    Oath Keepers is not who I am referring to specifically here. I’m referring to rank and file Americans who are hurting. Who have lost their jobs and have been unemployed for a long, long time. People who can’t figure out how they are going to feed their children and themselves much less where the rent/mortgage is going to come from. If you were scared, hungry and desperate, you’d be angry too. And many are being seduced by the Occupiers’ siren song of: ‘Get ‘em!‘ But the call is a death trap that will crush America on the rocks.

    Yes, there are evil banks. But you know who was behind the latest atrocity of Bank of America putting a $5 fee on debit card usage and Citibank leveling a $15 fee on their debit card users? Why, the Progressive yelling the loudest from the Senate floor of course: Tricky Dickey Durbin. The guy who added an amendment to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street reform bill that caused the banks to have to add these fees. The banks warned it would happen and it is always middle America who pays in the end. Always. And he did it because he can’t be held liable for speaking from the Senate floor and causing harm to Bank of America if it causes a run on the bank. Thanks Dick.



    Yes, there are evil corporations and evil rich guys like George Soros. There always have been and always will be. But by and large, big companies and the wealthy are what create jobs and prosperity in this country. Without them, you have no America. You have Russia.So instead of protesting the banks, corporations and feeding the ‘eat the rich‘ mantra, Americans should look to the Fed and to the White House and DC. This is where protests and anger should be leveled. Not through a Socialist/Marxist lens that focuses on wealth redistribution and something for nothing schemes. Instead of living in the freest nation on earth and having the chance for anyone to succeed, regardless of race, age, religion, sex or political bent, everyone will equally live in poverty and slavery and the elite will rule over us. That is what Occupy Wall Street accomplishes. It doesn’t address the burdens this nation is struggling under, it advances our demise at warp speed.



    Here is the breakdown of the connections behind Occupy Wall Street and those who created the movement from The Blaze:


    One more, Jim Wallis is out there supporting, organizing and recruiting for the movement, claiming that occupiers stand with Jesus. All I can say to Wallis is, ‘beware false prophets.’

    Those are the players and they are behind the Occupy Wall Street movement. They will lure as many in as possible before the door slams shut. They’ll lure Americans in with soothing words and false friendship and camaraderie. But, it is a trap – top down, bottom up, inside out. They want people to be so desperate that they will plead for the government to come in and take over. You might get a little food and a roof over your head, but you will end your days as a slave. If you are going to fight, make it for all the marbles. Make it count and keep your freedom. Don’t answer the occupiers’ siren song.
