Goodnight My General, Sleep Well…

 

Rabid Republican Blog

 "Defense Minister Hyon Yong-chol, who recently spoke at a Moscow defense conference, – has been executed by anti-aircraft fire in North Korea."

 

 "The head general insulted NorK Runt Kim Jung un by falling asleep in a meeting."

 

 "I’m guessing the perverted insecure runt likes to see pieces of flying meat, – rather than simply watching a bullet-riddled body slump in place.

"So far this year [2015] Kim is reported to have ordered the death of at least a dozen high officials – all in public executions.  But he’s got an army overflowing with generals – so replacing executed leaders is very easy.  What are they going to say when offered a promotion…?"
. . . 
 "So while Obama plays patty-cake with the Iranian Twelvers, – and plays the politics of race-baiting and class warfare here at home,  – it will only take one bad morning in Kim Jung un’s life to forever re-arrange the world order…."

Huge BDS loss – GreenStar Food Coop rejects Israel boycott

Legal Insurrection

 

"Activists from Ithaca Jewish Voice for Peace brought a referendum to the GreenStar Food Coop in Ithaca calling for a boycott of Israeli products. The effort was national, with big names such as Angela Davis (radical anti-Israel prof.) and Medea Benjamin (Code Pink) lending their support (see Featured Image).

"The effort was rejected tonight unanimously by the GreenStar Council based on the NY State Human Rights law prohibition of boycotts based on national origin. (Full decision at bottom of post.)

"Similar to the Park Slope Food Coop in Brooklyn, NY, the referenda caused enormous tension among the GreenStar membership and within the community. See our prior posts:" . . .

 Sick: BDS groups spread photoshop of Concentration Camp inmates holding anti-Israel signs
 "We are dealing with some really sick minds when it comes to the proponents of the Boycott, Divest and Sanctions (BDS) movement propaganda machine.
"The latest is from a group with over 91,000 Facebook fans, called “I Acknowledge Apartheid Exists.”
"That phrase is an integral part of the BDS movement, which falsely seeks to portray Israel as the equivalent of apartheid South Africa. That claim of Apartheid status was the founding propaganda principle of the BDS movement, which was started at the anti-Semitic 2001 Durban conference.

"The group has posted a photoshop of Nazi concentration camp inmates holding anti-Israel signs, on its Facebook page. It’s unclear if the group created it, or is just promoting it."

 

UK: Cameron's First Move After Election, New Laws to "Combat Poisonous Islamist Ideology"

Infidel Bloggers Alliance

 

From the Times of India:

LONDON: In what is his first major policy announcement since winning last week's general election, Prime Minister David Cameron on Wednesday announced new laws to combat a "poisonous Islamist ideology". 

The PM announced plans for a new Counter-Extremism Bill at the first meeting of the new National Security Council (NSC) in Downing Street. 

The new legislation will include introducing banning orders for extremist organizations who seek to undermine democracy or use hate speech in public places, new extremism disruption orders to restrict people who seek to radicalise young people and powers to close premises where extremists seek to influence others. 

It also includes strengthening the powers of the Charity Commission to root out charities who misappropriate funds towards extremism and terrorism, further immigration restrictions on extremists and a strengthened role for Ofcom to take action against channels which broadcast extremist content. 

Cameron said, "For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens: as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone. It's often meant we have stood neutral between different values. And that's helped foster a narrative of extremism and grievance. This government will conclusively turn the page on this failed approach.". . .

Hillary's "Mediaphobia". Better she keeps her mouth shut.

The NFL suspended Tom Brady for four games for text-messaging clubhouse workers to deflate game balls to his grip and liking. He was mum the next day. Tom Brady referred all questions about his refusal to give NFL investigators his smart phone and text messages to his lawyer, Hillary Clinton. Comedian Argus Hamilton

Brady Deflates, Hillary Skates  " That the standards of transparency are seemingly higher for an NFL Super Bowl quarterback than for a former Secretary of State and presidential wannabe does not bode well for our republic nor speak well of the state of the so-called mainstream media. But the double standards regarding media treatment of Tom Brady versus Hillary Clinton are many and troubling."
. . .
"Do we hold NFL quarterbacks to higher standards than presidential contenders? He used deflated footballs against NFL rules but he did not leave our diplomatic mission in Benghazi with inadequate security and then blame the deaths of four Americans after the September 1, 2011 terrorist attack on an Internet video. Nor did he try to enhance his reputation by claiming to have dodged sniper fire in Bosnia."

Hillary's Mediaphobia..."Hillary Clinton is running a groundbreaking campaign by breaking records in her avoidance of the media. If she continues on this path, in just a few days it will be one month since she answered a single journalist’s question.

"Considering how left leaning the media is and how easily they let leftists get away with bogus answers, Hillary really is quite the little coward (among other things), isn’t she? " . . .   
Of course, when Clinton speaks to the press, this is often the kind of image she presents of America:                          

Good grief; she's another Obama on the world stage! Why are there not millions more who are embarrassed by those we choose to run this nation? TD

Marco Rubio Says America’s Physical Strength Has ‘Deteriorated’ Under Obama

Both cartoons by TerrellAfterMath

Observer/News  ..."Laying out a hawkish foreign policy vision repudiating the Obama era, Sen. Marco Rubio declared in Manhattan today that America’s physical and ideological strength had “deteriorated” since Mr. Obama took office in 2009.

"Mr. Rubio, a Florida Republican and leading contender for president, said his foreign policy agenda would have three pillars: projecting American strength with more defense spending, more free trade, and a “proud advocacy” of American core values. In his prepared remarks, he also called Hillary Clinton, a top Democratic presidential contender, a “leader from yesterday.”

"Mr. Obama “entered office believing America was too hard on our adversaries, too engaged in too many places, and that if we just took a step back, did some ‘nation building at home’–ceding leadership to other countries–America would be better liked and the world better off,” Mr. Rubio said at a Council on Foreign Relations event.

“ 'He demonstrated a disregard for our moral purpose that at times flirted with disdain. He criticized America for having ‘arrogance’ and the audacity to ‘dictate our terms’ to other nations,” Mr. Rubio continued. “From his reset with Russia, to his open hand to Iran, to his unreciprocated opening to Cuba, he has embraced regimes that systematically oppose every principle our nation has long championed.” . . .

Obama’s Policies, Not Fox, Hurt the Poor

  So don’t bother having sympathy for Fox News, whose enormous audience is more than enough compensation for presidential insults. If you want to be sorry for anyone, have some pity for the children of the poor that, unlike Sasha and Malia Obama, are being told to stay in failed public schools rather than getting a chance for something better.

http://obamacartoon.blogspot.com

   Jonathan S. Tobin " Yesterday, during a conversation about poverty at the Catholic-Evangelical Summit at Georgetown University, President Obama employed his favorite rhetorical device — a straw man opponent for his arguments — at the expense of his favorite target — Fox News. His point was that Americans were resistant to doing more for the poor because Fox had convinced them that the poor were unworthy of assistance thereby undermining support for government programs. But more than that, he saw this alleged sense of contempt as being linked to a belief in private initiative that he sees connected to the ills of the underprivileged. But there’s more to this issue than Obama’s trademark intolerance for criticism. At its heart, these statements tell us all we need to know about the president’s unwillingness to take responsibility for the state of the nation as well his refusal to think outside the conventional lines of liberal ideology."   Keep reading...

Walter Williams: Black Lives Matter

This Is Police Memorial Week – Appreciate Them While You Still Can . . . " Obama is behind the movement to demonize police so he can federalize them just as he did to doctors, insurance companies, bankers, and Israelis.
"One source said they might turn their backs on Barack Obama Friday during the Memorial service. If they do, we need to support them.
"Mr. Obama has made the police the enemy. You think we’d get smart after he’s done it so many times to push he far-left agenda."

 Townhall  . . . "Criminal activity is a major problem in many black communities. That means many black citizens will have some kind of contact with police officers, either as victims of crime or as criminals. One of the true tragedies is that black politicians, preachers and civil rights advocates give massive support to criminals such as Brown, Garner and Scott. How much support do we see for the overwhelmingly law-abiding members of the black community preyed upon by criminals?

Dr Williams; just to make sure you know.

"The average American has no idea of the day-to-day threats and fears encountered by the law-abiding majority in black neighborhoods on account of thugs. In addition to giving threats and instilling fears, criminals have turned many black communities into economic wastelands where there is a lack of services that most Americans take for granted, such as supermarkets, other shops and even home delivery. Black residents must bear the expense of having to go out of their neighborhoods to shop or shop at high-cost mom and pop stores.

"The protest chant that black lives matter appears to mean that black lives matter only if they are taken at the hands of white police officers."

Dr. Williams imbedded this video of a heroic police officer taking action:

More heroic police actions shown here. ..Pray that such officers will remain safe from being killed by looting rioters or being condemned by this President and his advisers.

FLASHBACK: FBI Warns of Train Derailment Threat

Gateway Pundit ..." As we await more information on the train derailment in Philadelphia on Tuesday night it should be noted that the FBI put out several warnings since 9-11 on possible sabotage of US trains."

 

"The FBI warned of stolen “derailers” after the 9-11 attacks.
This warning was first published in 2003.
ABC News reported:

Devices that could be used by terrorists to derail trains are being stolen from rail facilities around the country, the FBI warned today.

Nine derailers, a piece of railroad equipment used to derail train cars for safety purposes in railyards have been stolen recently, sources said, citing the FBI’s weekly intelligence bulletin.

The theft of these items is strange since they are of little use outside of the rail industry, according to the bulletin.

Railroads have been targeted in the past by terrorists, the bulletin said.

Report: Florida professor bullies student for refusing to condemn Christian faith

SpokaneFAVS
 Here's your liberal tolerance..

 

"It almost sounds like a scene straight out of the movie “God is Not Dead.” On Tuesday, May 5, Campus Reform said that Lance “Lj” Russum, a humanities professor at Polk State College, allegedly failed a student after she refused to condemn her own Christian faith. According to Campus Reform, the 16-year-old student identified only as “G.L.,” was failed after she refused to “concede that Jesus is a ‘myth’ or that Christianity oppresses women during a series of mandatory assignments at the Florida college.”

"A press release from Liberty Counsel said the student received a “zero” on four separate papers because she did not “conform to his personal worldviews of Marxism, Atheism, Feminism, and homosexuality.”

"In a letter to the dean, Liberty Counsel demanded a full investigation of the teacher, including his behavior and course content. The public-interest law firm also demanded the student’s papers be reviewed and graded by a different instructor.

"In a press release issued May 4, Liberty Counsel added:

"Russum’s classroom behavior is a reflection of his personal biases. Mr. Russum’s Facebook likes and profile pictures include Fidel Castro and Jesus Christ making an obscene gesture. The website “Rate my Professor” shows that G.L. is not the first student to be subjected to the professor’s viewpoint discrimination. His college email signature line includes a quote from a Marxist who praises Lenin, Stalin, the Khmer Rouge, and Adolf Hitler. These, along with the inappropriate course content, show that Professor Russum is seeking to impose his own values on students, in violation of the Constitution.

“ 'Mr. Russum should not be permitted to use his position to punish students who do not conform to his anti-Christian views,”. . . Keep reading...

Much Ado About the First Lady

Mrs. Obama: I Feel Alienated, and That’s Proof of America’s Racism

One’s personal grievances are not conclusive evidence of society-wide problems.

 . . . "I certainly do not dispute that the first lady may, indeed, have experienced feelings of alienation or discomfort in a Chicago museum. But we have abandoned the duty of distinguishing between feelings that are “real” and perceptions that are true. Mrs. Obama uses her private feelings as evidence of a certain public reality: Because she feels discriminated against, she is in fact being discriminated against. Cohen, for his part, accepts that unquestioningly.

 No, Mrs. Obama, America’s Museums Aren’t Racially Discriminatory . . . "One can hear in this latest lecture her infamous 2008 campaign remark: that America is “downright mean.” What she is suggesting — and the Obama duo’s treatment of race relations over the past six years makes this clear — is not that free and independent-minded black Americans are refusing to take advantage of the nation’s 17,000 museums, but that curators and crowds have quietly signaled that black Americans are not welcome.

 Victor Davis Hanson:  Does the First Lady Really Believe African Americans Have Been ‘Frustrated and Invisible’ for ‘Decades’?   

Angry Meal

. . . "But what does the aggrieved Mrs. Obama’s allegation of black Americans’ being “invisible” mean in the age of African-American ubiquity in high-visibility entertainment and sports, or in light of the careers of billionaires such as Michael Jordan, Jay-Z, Beyoncé, or Oprah Winfrey, or national black leaders such as Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice, Clarence Thomas, Ben Carson, Eric Holder, or Barack Obama? Does she mean “invisible” academics like Cornel West or Henry Louis Gates? Are actors such as Morgan Freeman or Denzel Washington “frustrated”? Do university admissions officers practice a sly sort of discrimination against college-age African Americans with impressive test scores and GPAs, as they do in the case of qualified Asian Americans?" . . .

I fear we are seeing now the tip of the Obama racialist iceberg, and in the remaining 18 months are going to witness far more polarization and alleged grievances against the supposedly culpable so-called majority culture.

Ferguson and Baltimore may well be harbingers of what awaits us all.

 The Saudi King Salman -among others-begs off Obama's conference

. . . " As far as the Middle East is concerned, Obama seems to have no idea of the history or the dynamics that affect all the actions there. His Secretary of State, Kerry, is no better. He met with Arab officials last Friday and they told him they want a defense treaty in the event they were attacked by “external forces”, something that the Congress will not approve so long as Obama is in the White House."

. . . 

 "Writing in The New York Times on May 8, Jonathan Schanzer, vice president of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, put it bluntly, “It doesn’t matter what these politicians think now or have said in in the past. Peace between Israel and the Palestinians is not happening in the next two years.” That’s how long we all have to wait until Obama leaves office."

. . . 

 “ 'The Israelis look around the Middle East and see nothing but conflict, carnage, instability and danger,” said Schanzer. “The Obama doctrine—which includes a deliberate contraction of American power in the Middle East—has undeniably made Israel less safe.”

It has made the U.S. and the world less safe too." . . .

How Obama’s Made Sure to Leave Every Part of the World More Dangerous than He Found It  . . ."Alas, seven years later, a seemingly endless stream of apologies, attempts to placate the world’s miscreants, and inappropriate stabs at moral equivalency are primary components of a spectacularly failed U.S. foreign policy. Seems the “cowboy” Bush and all those opportunistic militarists at the Pentagon are not the reason so many bad guys take issue with the U.S. Similarly, the infamous time-dishonored plea for time regarding negotiations with Russia speaks to a comfortable familiarity with weak negotiating positions.
