OBAMA DECRIES: ‘Less-Than-Loving Expressions by Christians’…Says Squat About Islam’s Atrocities

 Clash Daily  "Obama says Christians are just so unloving at the Easter Prayer breakfast…but for some reason, he doesn’t say anything about the Muslims that killed 147 Christians in Kenya during Easter holy week."

President Obama used an Easter breakfast at the White House Tuesday to call out what he viewed as unbecoming comments by fellow members of the Christian community.
“On Easter, I do reflect on the fact that as a Christian, I’m supposed to love, and I have to say that sometimes when I listen to less-than-loving expressions by Christians, I get concerned,” the president said to a gathering of Christian leaders. “But that’s a topic for another day.”
Obama appeared to go off script in that exchange. He did not allude to whom he was referring.

 Obama criticizes 'less than loving Christians' at Easter prayer breakfast   "As the Washington Times points out, the latest Obama signal of religious relativism came after his administration had issued a statement on the Kenyan massacre at a Christian college without once mentioning the religion of the victims – or the attackers.

Addressing an ecumenical gathering at the White House of cardinals, ministers, pastors and the lay faithful, Mr. Obama was talking about the Apostle John’s call to love “with actions and in truth” rather than with words. The president then briefly gave in to temptation, and deviated from his prepared remarks.

. . . The president's perversity – a perversity echoed by many on the left – wouldn't be so bad if he bashed Muslims for committing far worse sins in the name of their faith.  Calling someone names is not the same as cutting off his head to glorify Allah.  Until Obama acknowledges the difference, his criticism of Christianity will be seen as gratuitous slaps to mollify Muslims, and not serious commentary."

OBAMA ISSUES DIRE PREDICTION FOR SAUDIS

Klein Online  "In his sit-down interview with the New York Times over the weekend, President Obama issued a dire, largely unreported prediction about the future of Saudi Arabia and other Sunni allies of the United States. “I think the biggest threats that they face may not be coming from Iran invading,” said Obama. “It’s going to [...]"


 Obama’s long-held dream of nuclear disarmament

 

. . . "This is a young man who doesn’t seem to like America a whole lot and didn’t think all that much of humanity in general either. There is no question that he believes he knows better, and has purer and more noble instincts, than those in charge. That’s not an unusual point of view for a young man, of course. But Obama seems to have managed to carry a similar attitude right up to the present.

"The NY Times picked up on the attitude:" . . .
 ' ' '
It’s also instructive to remember this:

…President Obama erred in 2013 with his decision to scrap — in response to Russian objections — a planned system in Europe to defend against missile threats from the Middle East. Obama won no good will from the Russians, even as he forfeited an important opportunity to strengthen U.S. allies against future threats. Missile defense allows strong nations to defend themselves against weaker enemies without resorting to terrorist tactics or fighting bloody wars. This is a win-win, except for terrorists like Hamas and national rulers bent on aggression against neighbors.

But the dream dies hard, doesn’t it?

From Blackfive: Inspection Insanity  " Obama is out trying to pitch his lipsticked-up pig of a nuke deal and managed to compare this stage of the process to signing a contract to buy a house and then you just need to do the inspections and VOILA!. Except, no deal was signed, the Iranians are saying they didn't agree to all the things O is crowing about and then you have the actual inspections. How do you think that will go? You're right, about as good as the North Korea deal. Nukes for all Obama's pals."

A Rolling Stone Gathers No Facts; What Columbia Missed In Its Review of Rolling Stone

American Thinker   "In November, Rolling Stone magazine ran a story detailing the horrific account of an alleged gang rape at a fraternity on the University of Virginia campus. The story quickly proved to be rubbish, and Rolling Stone reached out to the Columbia University School of Journalism to discover how the magazine could have blundered so badly.

"With much ado, Columbia responded. Its 13,000-word report identified problems in “reporting, editing, editorial supervision and fact-checking.” This was all true enough, but Columbia missed the real problem. As I document in my forthcoming book, Scarlet Letters, cases like the Rolling Stone’s have become so common because those perpetrating a given fraud almost inevitably advance causes that the cultural establishment, the Columbia faculty included, wants to see advanced."

"Although there are a few exceptions, the people who guard the cultural gates tend to be liberal on sexual and social issues, socialist on economic ones, internationalist in their worldview, and Democratic in their voting preferences." . . .

Rolling Stone publisher Jann Wenner is in complete denial  . . . " “The magazine set aside or rationalized as unnecessary essential practices of reporting that, if pursued, would likely have led the magazine’s editors to reconsider publishing Jackie’s narrative so prominently, if at all.' ” . . .

Students smeared by Rolling Stone gang rape story speak out  . . . "Neither Ryan nor Alex were ever contacted by Erdely, and yet both somehow managed to play key roles in Erdely’s narrative. Both recently sat down with Megyn Kelly to sound off on how they were portrayed in the controversial article:" . . .

SOME SOURCES CLAIM THEY KNOW THE REAL NAME OF UVA RAPE LIAR 
 “ 'Jackie” asked not to be included in Sabrina Rubin Erdely’s story but Rubin included her anyways(SIC)."

 Law and Order: SVU Cartoonifies the Rolling Stone UVA Rape Debacle  "Law and Order: SVU aired their take on the UVA rape case last night, in which a seemingly credible young woman says she was gang-raped by a hockey team at New York's fictional Hudson University. In the end—spoiler alert—her story (sort of) falls apart."

It's not just Rolling Stone: Mainstream leftist media now a network of activist media hoaxers who spew hatred and intolerance disguised as "news" . . . " Essentially, the Columbia report concludes that Rolling Stone ran with a totally fabricated story because the magazine utterly failed to fact check anything. Someone fed Rolling Stone precisely the lies they wanted to hear -- fully aligned with the cultural agenda of the magazine -- and Rolling Stone bought it hook, line and sinker." . . .

Alan Caruba: Only Fools Trust Obama or the Iranians

Warning Signs

 

"Only fools express any trust in Obama these days or the Iranians who have made him look the fool when no one in their neighborhood or the world trusts a thing they say or do.

"After more than six years of listening to President Obama’s unremitting lies, when he says of the latest “accord” with Iran, “It’s a good deal” and standing in the Rose Garden declares that the U.S. and Iran have reached “an historic understanding” the only history being made his own ignominy and idiocy.

"It would be historic if anyone could extend either President Obama or the Iranians any trust." . . . 

Cartoons added, TD

 "Unless one believes in unicorns and other fantasies, this latest “accord” and what we are being told about it by the President and the State Department is not a great achievement. It is doomed to failure because Iran has had no intention of doing anything other than getting economic and other sanctions removed. Time is on their side as they work to develop their own nuclear weapons.

"When Iran tests its first nuclear weapon, Obama should return his Nobel Peace Prize."

EXPERT: Feminism Destroyed Passover (& Synagogue Attendance)

Debbie Schlussel "Feminism and the feminization of Judaism have caused Jewish men to stop celebrating Passover and attend synagogue, an expert on Judaism tells the Wall Street Journal. As with everything worth anything, if you chickify it, who the heck wants it?!"
 

. . . "By the way, you’ll note that these men are mostly men who are Conservative and Reform Jews, liberals who know a lot more about why they blindly love Barack Hussein Obama than they do anything about their own religion. Orthodox Jews–including and especially the men–are, as I’ve repeatedly pointed out on this site for more than a decade, much more conservative politically and much more likely to vote Republican (my synagogue voted about 95% for Mitt Romney). Orthodox Jewish men are still the leaders in synagogue, at home, and in religious observances." . . .

We should dread that "I told you so" day that is coming.

Iran newspapers reported Friday that the U.S.-Iran deal allows Iran to update plutonium plants, enrich uranium, and add centrifuges. It's the opposite of what the New York Times said.

Thomas Sowell: 'Comparing Obama to Chamberlain Is Unfair...'

“Comparing Obama to Chamberlain is unfair – to Chamberlain. There is no question that the British prime minister loved his country and pursued its best interests as he saw it. He was not a ‘citizen of the world,’ or worse. Chamberlain was building up his country’s military forces, not tearing them down, as Barack Obama has been doing with American military forces. … Barack Obama dismissed the thought of America being vulnerable to ‘a small country’ like Iran. Iran is in fact larger than Japan was when it attacked Pearl Harbor, and Iran has a larger population. If Japan had nuclear bombs, World War II could have turned out very differently. If anyone examines the hard, cold facts about the Obama administration’s actions and inactions in the Middle East from the beginning, it is far more difficult to reconcile those actions and inactions with a belief that Obama was trying to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons than it is to reconcile those facts with his trying to stop Israel from stopping Iran from getting nuclear weapons. This latest ‘agreement’ with Iran – with which Iran has publicly and loudly disagreed – is only the latest episode in that political charade.”

Consequences of Living under a Tyrant: We Have Nothing to Fear, But Our Commander-in-Chief”

 

 Voice of Lillpop

 As the world anxiously awaits the latest news from Lausanne, Switzerland about Iran’s suspect nuclear program following yesterday’s missed deadline, one is struck by  conflicting emotions surrounding the talks.
One the one hand, one hopes that a reasonable, verifiable and effective accord, or framework for such, can be reached by the end of Wednesday, April 1.
On the other hand, one dreads an agreement made under intense political pressure, motivated by an unhealthy obsession with getting an accord in place at all costs, without due regard for the quality of such agreement.
This reflects very real concerns about the competency and loyalty of President Barack Obama.  Many patriotic Americans simply do not trust Obama’s judgment in dealing with the terrorist state of Iran, and are further unsure about his commitment to America’s best interests and those of Israel.
Questions about Obama have spawned a new phrase of caution: We have nothing to fear, but our Commander-in-Chief himself”!
Sad, but true, that our greatest enemy may be the man entrusted with the most responsibility for defending America and 330 million Americans, and our allies.

The PBY that won the Battle of Midway . . . um, with help from the Navy

THE CONSOLIDATED PBY

Battle of Midway Roundtable  . . . "Next, "Strawberry 5" is a total fabrication in the 1976 "Midway" movie. VP-23 used no such nicknames. They stuck it in the movie so that the voice radio transmissions made from the plane by "Ady" would seem authentic. Even that was fictitious, since the radio messages were sent by Morse, not voice, and not by Ady himself. " . . .

For history & airplane enthusiasts :

"We see a lot on the restorations of WWII era bombers and fighters, but this is something quite unusual…

"The story of PBY-5A CATALINA (Strawberry 5) discovery and restoration for the US Navy museum in San Diego. It was the only remaining intact PBY-5 Catalina remaining in the World, and it was discovered in South Africa.

"PBY "STRAWBERRY 5" WAS THE PLANE THAT FOUND THE JAPANESE CARRIERS AT THE BATTLE OF MIDWAY WHICH BECAME THE TURNING POINT IN THE PACIFIC THEATER OF WWII. BEAUTIFULLY DONE – ENJOY

"Consolidated PBY Catalina was an American flying boat, and later an amphibious aircraft of the 1930s and 1940s produced by Consolidated Aircraft. It was one of the most widely used seaplanes of World War II. Catalinas served with every branch of the United States Armed Forces and in the air forces and navies of many other nations." . . .

"Liberals have been beside themselves since the GoFundMe page set up for the Indiana-based Memories Pizza raised over $840,000. Many have put forward wild-eyed conspiracy theories to explain the outpouring of support for the small pizza shop attacked by anti-Christian liberals. On Saturday, Chris Loesch tweeted the claim made by one liberal who allegedly used "math" to allege the entire effort was a "dirty GOP trick" funded by the Koch brothers.

"This individual, the Media Research Center noted, divided $840,000 by 30,000 donors and concluded that each donor would have given $29,000 each. Of course, MRC said, when the math is applied properly, the correct answer would be $28, not $29,000." . . .

Gatestone Institute: ‘Why are these Christians dying?’

 "The onslaught of Islamic radicals continues to rampage across the globe leading to mass murder and torture of Christians, leading to what some are calling, “Christian Genocide” and while the West has done little, the Gatestone Institute on Sunday has asked as to why these Christian are dying. In 2014, the Persecution watchdog group, Open Doors accused the U.S. and other world leaders of standing by and doing nothing while watching Christian genocide happen around the world and released of its World Watch List of countries where followers of Christ are most heavily targeted." . . .
