‘Losing Our Sons’ Breaks Media Silence about Radical Islamic Recruitment in America

Big Peace  "Americans for Peace and Tolerance (APT), an interfaith coalition of Christians, Jews, and Muslims today released a trailer for its upcoming documentary about Abdulhakim Mohamed, formerly Carlos Bledsoe, a 23 year-old Baptist-born youth who converted to radical Islam and killed a young Marine in Little Rock, Arkansas."

The Paradox of Tolerance "Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. [...] We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant." - Sir Karl Popper via Americans for Peace & Tolerance

Is Media Matters Breaking the Law?

BELTWAY CONFIDENTIAL    "But in the IRS application for 501(C)(3) tax-exempt educational foundation status, Section VIII, Question I asks the applicant: "Do you support or oppose candidates in political campaigns in any way?" (Emphasis added).Via Big Government
Under Brock's definition of Fox News, it appears he is setting MM on a course of actively opposing all Republican candidates. Brandon Kiser at The Right Sphere blog argues that this new statement of MM's mission means it must change its tax status."

The Egyptian revolution and U.S. policy mistakes make a new Israel-Hamas war inevitable.

Yid with Lid  "If Hamas is confident, it will go to war. With more and better weapons, Hamas will go to war. If it believes that the international environment is permissive--much less supportive!--it will go to war. It's only a matter of timing.
"Second, the Egyptian revolution removed a regime that defined its own and Egypt's national interest as having an anti-Hamas policy." Barry Rubin

Oh well, we can always get oil from Brazil and those countries that hate us.

"ANARCHISTS" IN LONDON

Neal Boortz  Boortz says riots in the UK are led by anarchists, but riots in the US will be led by labor unions and Democrats.
"Are you starting to get an idea of what the next year is going to look like in this country?  We are going to have one powerful group of people, Democrats, looking to regain lost power; and another powerful group of people, union leaders, working frantically to prevent an erosion of their power.  These two groups of people, Democrats and unions, feed off of one another.  Democrats rely on the unions for financial support and volunteer help during elections, and unions rely on Democrats for political protection.  What very lovely symbiotic relationship we have here!  Just who is that left standing on the outside?  Why that's you!  The taxpayer!  Democrats certainly don't derive any power from taxpaying Americans.  Their power comes from the moocher class who don't pay taxes, government employees, and labor unions. " Emphasis added.

A recent statewide poll in California shows just how much pension scandals involving government workers has shifted the political canvas.. "Marcia Fritz, a Democrat who heads the California Foundation for Fiscal Responsibility, says if the impasse continues there is likely to be a ballot measure put before voters to roll back pension promises. "The taxpayer as well as essential government services are being crushed by unsustainable pension obligations," she told me." John Fund.

FL House OKs bill ending union dues pay deductions "In a blow to public employee unions, the Republican-controlled Florida House passed a bill Friday that would ban payroll deductions of dues and require labor organizations to get individual members' OK before using their payments for political purposes."

Farrakhan defends Gaddafi

Rick Moran  "Farrakhan gave several reasons why the U.S. lacks the moral authority to intervene in the Libyan conflict, including the deaths of black people at the hands of law enforcement during the Rodney King protests in 1991 and the unhealthy food that the federal government allows into the marketplace."
That's what he said, I kid you not.

Obama and Libya: The professor’s war

Charles Krauthammer  "In any case, for Obama, military objectives take a back seat to diplomatic appearances. The president is obsessed with pretending that we are not running the operation — a dismaying expression of Obama’s view that his country is so tainted by its various sins that it lacks the moral legitimacy to . . . what? Save Third World people from massacre?
"Obama seems equally obsessed with handing off the lead role. Hand off to whom? NATO? Quarreling amid Turkish resistance (see above), NATO still can’t agree on taking over command of the airstrike campaign, which is what has kept the Libyan rebels alive."

The Debt Crisis and Cynicism

Stan Guthrie  in Breakpoint  " Political observers say that Obama may be setting up Republicans to put forward an austerity budget—and then punish them as hard-hearted grinches in 2012, figuring voters aren’t really serious about the debt crisis after all.
"If we fall for our president’s cynical ploy, then the impending fiscal and moral disaster will make the deep and painful recession we are experiencing now look like a pothole."

WHICH IS THE TRUE "APARTHEID" STATE, ISRAEL OR FATAH CONTROLLED SAMARIA AND HAMAS CONTROLLED GAZA?

Astute Blogger  "Judea and Samaria have been known by these names for unbroken centuries, and were registered as such on official documents and maps, by international institutions and in authoritative reference books right up to about 1950. When the correct names became a problem for Palestinian Arabs trying to make their newly-minted claim on the land, it somehow became "politically correct" to use "West Bank" or "occupied territories" instead of the historically accurate names Judea and Samaria."





















If Media Matters has their way, who will there be to speak for Israel in America?

Understanding the third terror war

Caroline Glick  "The Palestinians recognize that they don't need to pretend to be good to get Europe to support them. After the people of Europe have been brainwashed by their media and intimidated by the Muslim communities, they have developed a Pavlovian response regarding Israel whereby every mention of Israel makes them hate it more. It doesn't matter if the story is about the massacre of Israeli children or the bombing of synagogues and nursery schools. They know that Israel is the guilty party and expect their governments to punish it."

Former Klansman Seeks Political Office in Florida…as a Democrat

The Blaze via Free Republic: "Not only was Rogers a Klansman, but he was a leader in the United Klans of America, which was arguably the most violent of the Klan organizations says Florida local and Klan history expert Darryl Paulson:"
Paulson, a USF professor, who is an expert in the Klan, points to a case in which two Klansman with the United Klans of America were convicted of attacking 19-year-old Michael Donald .
John Paul Rogers, a 70-year old Floridian, wants to run for mayor of a small
 Florida town called Lake Wales. Just one problem: the democratic mayoral
candidate is a former Klansman. Here he is at a 1977 KKK rally in Tallahassee:

Coordinated Terrorist Attacks on Global Energy Infrastructure: Modeling the Risks

Insider Online  The abstract states in part: "Careful implementation of select policies could limit the economic damage, but implementation of misguided policies could easily make such a crisis even worse. The United States and its allies would need to exercise decisive and effective leadership to deal with the crisis, but this requires the U.S. to develop an assertive international energy policy, preferably before such a crisis."

Good luck with all that.
