Hezbollah Official Strategizes Islamist Destruction of Israel After U.S. Leaves Iraq

The Blaze  "If, following the U.S. withdrawal, Iraq becomes a bridge linking Iran to Syria, the Iranian forces could cross Iraq and arrive in Syria, in order to participate in a direct war on the Golan front.
"In that case, Israel would not be fighting Hizbullah alone. It would be fighting Hizbullah, Syria, Iraq, and Iran. This is the so-called ‘Shiite Crescent’ that they fear…”

Dyspepsia and American Atheism

Mike Adams  "Every now and then there is a lawsuit that really defines the desperation of a failing social movement. The recent decision of one of America’s most intolerant religious organizations, American Atheists, provides a prime example. This group of anti-Christian zealots has filed a lawsuit they will surely lose. But they will suffer an even more resounding defeat in the court of public opinion. Put simply, the lawsuit will demonstrate that atheism is largely the result of emotional inferiority rather than intellectual superiority."




More on That Movie (Obama's campaign ad); Updated

Maureen Dowd's Loose Lips About Navy Seals Movie Causes Inquiry  "Dowd's no stranger to controversy but with her latest New York Times article she seems to have placed "Cool Hand Barack" in a rather awkward position.
"Dowd outed the administration's cozy arrangement with Oscar-winning couple Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal. The pair has a movie in production on the hunt and killing of Osama Bin Laden set to be released 3 weeks before voters head to the polls in 2012. "....
"Dowd's revelatory column was published the day after Taliban forces launched a rocket-propelled grenade and shot down a helicopter over Afghanistan killing 22 Navy Seals from the same unit as the commandos who took out Osama bin Laden on May 1. Not good."
If we had lost a son in that ambush, we would not be happy with Democrats right now. TD

Sony Hosted Obama Fundraiser, Releasing Bin Laden Movie Before Election  "So far, Sony is the only major studio to hold a political fundraiser this cycle. According to Deadline Hollywood, Sony will release the bin Laden movie, directed by Academy Award-winning director Kathryn Bigelow, on October 12, 2012--less than a month before the presidential election."

NY Post: Call Off the ‘SEALs-ploitation’  "A key task for any commander is reining in subordinates who get out of line. Mr. President, tell your political crew that you won’t tolerate our troops’ bravery and sacrifice being exploited just to grab a few votes."

From Blackfive: Obama campaigns on dead SEALs  "Even though most of the families specifically requested no media coverage of the return of the remains of the fallen, that doesn't apply to the campaign staff WH photographer. So we get a pic of Barry trying his damndest to look like a leader.
"Anyone with an dime's worth of decency would have known better than to use such an event, but that is simply part of Obama's lack of character. He couldn't just attend, he had top make sure that all the voting public knew he was there."

Update: Pentagon did not know of Obama photo  "An official White House photo of a saluting Obama was distributed to news media and published widely. It also was posted on the White House website as the "Photo of the Day." It showed Obama and other officials in silhouette and did not depict caskets.
"Doug Wilson, head of public affairs at the Pentagon, said the department did not know the White House photographer was present and had no idea a photo of the event was being released until it became public."

Allow me to refer you to the comments to this Blackfive post on the aforementioned photo.

Mr. Obama- like Bill Clinton- is a member of the "military-loathing" left and no amount of saluting photos will ever change my concept of  how they feel at ceremonies such as this. When people like these award the Medal of Honor to heroes of America's wars, I am sad for the recipients; they deserve so much better for their sacrifice. TD.

Names of the Fallen Seals..

Department of Defense   "The Department of Defense announced today the deaths of 30 servicemembers who were supporting Operation Enduring Freedom. They died Aug. 6 in Wardak province, Afghanistan, of wounds suffered when their CH-47 Chinook helicopter crashed."

Democrats doubt Barack Obama's reelection chances

UK Telegraph  "President Barack Obama is facing mounting doubts within his own party about his re-election prospects, with fellow Democrats beginning to ask if Hillary Clinton would have made a better president." 
But never forget how far left she was. Name one path Obama has placed this nation on and tell me Hillary would not have chosen the same. And instead of being accused of racism by the left for opposing Democrat policies, conservatives would by now have been branded as sexists. 
By the way, what ever happened to those two "iron my shirt" guys from Hillary 2008?  Don't you suspect they are working for some Democrat campaign somewhere?

A whole new perspective: Jimmy Carter's starting to look better   "His family uses Air Force One as a shuttle to one exotic vacation locale to the next. His wife preaches the virtues of fresh vegetables to children while noshing on burgers in private.
"When the stock market tumbled and our bond rating was down graded he continued to attend fund raisers and play golf.
"When the price gas approached $4.00 he did nothing but continue to tie the hands of domestic energy producers.
"When he spoke of shared sacrifice and evils of tax breaks for corporate jets. We simply just turned off the TV set.
"Ah Yes ...President Jimmy Carter.... Our memories of him are getting fonder every day."

Britain a metaphor for Obama voters vs. the rich

Ann Coulter  "Democrats would be delighted if violent mobs like those in Britain arose here -- perhaps in Wisconsin! That would allow them to introduce yet more government programs staffed by unionized public employees, as happened after the 1992 L.A. riots and the 1960s race riots, following the recommendations of the Kerner Commission.
....
Inciting violent mobs is the essence of the left's agenda: Promote class warfare, illegitimate children and an utterly debased citizenry.
Like the British riot girls interviewed by the BBC, the Democrats tell us "all of this happened because of the rich people."

In America, Mr. Obama attacks the "rich", but his policies are aimed against those making $250,000 or more which includes small business owners; people whose shops are being burned and looted over in London. You hear them being referred to as "the rich" by rioters and you can see the stage being set for the same in America by Democrats. The terms "corporate jet owners" and "millionaires and billionaires" is construed by these "feral young people" for anyone whose wise choices in life have made it possible for them to own a business. They are now the target for the left's envy and the street people's anger. TD

This rather cryptic UK cartoon depicts the hi-tech coordination of the rioters:
