PJMedia Sues Department of Defense for Climate Conference Info

Pajamas Media What happened to the transparency that candidate Obama promised?
"The volume of fuel used in the flights and how much the baggage weighed, as well as who was on all the flights, is information kept by the Air Force as a matter of course. This request should have taken about 20 minutes with a file cabinet to fill. Additionally, while this information would be classified (also as a matter of course), none of it was national security information. We all know the president went to Copenhagen and came back empty-handed."

Report: US to offer Israel incentives to negotiate

Ma'an News Agency  "US special envoy for the Middle East David Hale is reported to have said that the principles put forward in President Obama's May 19 speech were "the only way to move forward" in the peace process, a secret cable obtained by Maariv said."....

Bosch Fawstin

 "In the meeting, Hale is reported to have stated that Israel must agree to President Obama's principles, but will receive something of value in return."

Considered the main source of independent news from Palestine, MNA has become the first choice for online information for many Palestinians, and is also attracting a growing international readership and interest from prominent international news organizations and agencies.

Via Joshuapundit  "At least that's what the 'Palestinian' Ma'an news agency is reporting. So in exchange for unnamed 'incentives', the Israelis are supposed to retreat to indefensible borders and sit down with Hamas!??! If I were the Israelis, I wouldn't trust a single word coming out of Obama's mouth, let alone anything I heard from Mahmoud Abbas."

But then all of Islam would love us and we would never again fear a terrorist attack.

Alternative reasons for climate change?

Alan Caruba: The Epicenter of Anti-Semitism

Warning Signs  "The UN’s role in the furtherance of global anti-Semitism is so manifest it is impossible to ignore. Its sponsorship of the Durban conferences, allegedly to oppose racism, has fostered the most egregious anti-Semitism. In September 2009, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad addressed the conference and repeated every tired lie about Judaism and Jews. Out of 192 UN members, only eleven got up and left. The United States and Israel had chosen not to attend. "

Anti-Semitism in the United Nations  "As a result of such bias, the UN has lost credibility. It is no surprise that the Oslo agreements were negotiated outside of, and contained no role for, the UN. Though Israel has been the subject of aggressive wars in 1948, 1967 and 1973 and the victim of countless terrorist attacks, the Security Council and the General Assembly have never once censured its assailants.'  By Morris B. Abram,  Chairman, United Nations Watch

Why Can Academics Study 'Islamophobia' But Not Anti-Semitism?  "In our view, "Islamophobia" hardly deserves any academic attention compared to the much more serious phenomenon of anti-Semitism. According to the German scholar of anti-Semitism Clemens Heni, "Anti-Semitism, with its irrational, implacably genocidal dimension, is totally different [from Islamophobia]….[T]here are some Islamicists who openly advocate the takeover of Europe, the West and the world….[T]he Jews have never had or claimed such a goal.""

Obama continues his war on cheap American energy

American Thinker  "Barack Obama's EPA has been on a crusade to kill off efforts to boost America's domestic energy supplies. We are now among the least attractive nations for energy companies seeking to explore and develop energy supplies. The American people are waking up to the man-made disaster that Barack Obama has created."

A god or a flake?  "In less than three years of his administration, this "god" is falling from the sky, and indications are he will hit the ground with a sickening thud. Economic devastation is everywhere on the American landscape; we are teetering on the brink of a depression; he has insulted the British by returning a bust of Winston Churchill; he has alienated our ally Israel by telling them where their borders should be (they don't know, he knows), and has embarrassed himself by muffing a toast to Queen Elizabeth."

But like Maxwell Smart or Inspector Clouseau, Obama continues as if he did nothing wrong.

That press conference: Obama’s ‘Pants on Fire’

Heritage  Obama said:

What I have done — and this is unprecedented, by the way; no administration has done this before — is I’ve said to each agency, ‘Don’t just look at current regulations or don’t just look at future regulations, regulations that we’re proposing. Let’s go backwards and look at regulations that are already on the books and if they don’t make sense, let’s get rid of them.”

...."Eliminating unnecessary regulation is good policy, and with a mountain of new rules imposed in the realm of health care, banking, the Internet and the environment, the President is well advised to stop feeding the regulatory beast. But he would also be well advised not to make bold proclamations that are blatantly false, especially when he bears responsibility for the problems he claims to be solving.?

Politifact on Obama's claim. "Obama claims that his administration is doing something unprecedented -- "no administration has done this before," he said -- by having each agency review existing regulations, with an eye toward eliminating ones that don't make sense. Lots of presidents have done that. We rate Obama's statement Pants On Fire."

Will the press call him on it? What do you think?

Boortz Press Conference   "For those of you who missed my version of Barack Obama’s press conference, you’re in luck! You can listen to it right here [14:24]. Too bad Barack Obama is too busy to listen … he could stand to learn a few things."

Communist Party USA Throws Its Support Behind Obama, Democrats In 2012…

Weasel Zippers "CPUSA chief Sam Webb tells us why they will continue to support Obama and the Democrats in 2012. Hint: It’s because Republicans are more evil."  WZ then cites this article  from People's World.

Glenn Beck vs. The Mob

Ann Coulter  "A liberal's idea of being a bad-ass is to say vicious things to a conservative public figure who can't afford to strike back. Getting in a stranger's face and hurling insults at him, knowing full well he has too much at risk to deck you, is like baiting a bear chained to a wall.
"They are not only exploiting our lawsuit-mad culture, they are exploiting other people's manners. I know I'll be safe because this person has better manners than I do.
"These brave-hearts know exactly what they can get away with. They assault a conservative only when it's a sucker-punch, they outnumber him, or he can't fight back for reasons of law or decorum.
"Liberals don't get that when you're outnumbering the enemy 100-1, you're not brave."

Fox News host Glenn Beck: My family was harassed during New York Bryant Park movie '39 steps'  "Beck, 47, said cinemagoers turned on him during Monday's screening of Alfred Hitchcock's "The 39 Steps." One person, he said, shouted "We hate conservatives here" and another yelled "We're in New York and we hate Republicans.""

Some give another account  Though Beck's wife did get wine spilled on her somehow.

Hot Air: Angry moviegoer harasses Glenn Beck’s wife in NYC park Update: Another moviegoer says no animosity evident, but Twitter tells different story"Hmm. Twitter also turned up tweets from friends, suggesting she “accidentally” spill something on him. Which, of course, her friend “accidentally” did."  See the screenshot below:

Afghanistan and Obama's policy

The Weekly Standard: Gen. Keane Blasts Obama's Decision to Withdraw from Afghanistan  "Keane calls the president's decision "reckless" and said that it would result in more American causalties in Afghanistan." Jun 29, 2011

Wall Street Journal: The Coming Afghan Debacle; The Taliban is jubilant at Obama's strategy. So is Iran.  "Finally, it signals that the United States, like Britain before it, is a waning power. In his speech last week, Mr. Obama waxed eloquent on the point that "what sets America apart is not solely our power—it is the principles upon which our union was founded." Very true. But a nation that abandons to the Taliban those it was once committed to protect shows that it lacks power and principle alike."

Anybody out there old enough to remember the phrase, "Peace with honor"? Think Vietnam.

Blackfive: Obama ignored military on Afghan withdrawal  "LTG Allen testified to the Senate that his decision was not among any of the plans put forth by the military."

Allen's claim, which came under oath, contradicts the line the White House had been providing reporters over the past week—that Obama simply chose one option among several presented by General David Petraeus.

Andy McCarthy; Our Sharia-Compliant Afghan War; Our policy in Afghanistan is part tragedy, part farce.  "Private Abdo may not approve of al-Qaeda. He may not want to see the Taliban retake control of Afghanistan. But that is not the point. They are Muslims. He, like the Muslims of Afghanistan, sees himself as a Muslim first. He is not going to side with us over them. It doesn’t matter that he may privately believe they are reprehensible. Since they are Muslims, he sees it as Allah’s place, not his, to condemn them. In this life, in the sharia schema of Muslims versus non-Muslims, he is with his fellow Muslims — and would risk grave peril, both here and in the afterlife, were he to cross over to the other side."
