Obama has turned America into the WW2 Vichy French of today. Even Pravda reports on this.

President Obama threatened to shoot down Israeli jets if they attacked Iranian nuclear facilities last year, claim sources

. . . "The report claimed that an unnamed Israeli minister who has good ties with the US administration revealed the attack plan to Secretary of State John Kerry, and that Obama then threatened to shoot down the Israeli jets before they could reach their targets in Iran.

"According to the report, 'Netanyahu and his commanders agreed after four nights of deliberations to task the Israeli army's chief of staff, Benny Gantz, to prepare a qualitative operation against Iran's nuclear program. 

" 'In addition, Netanyahu and his ministers decided to do whatever they could do to thwart a possible agreement between Iran and the White House because such an agreement is, allegedly, a threat to Israel's security.'. . .

Obama Threatens War On Israel If They Attack Iran   "Israel even went so far as to conduct test flights of fighter jets over Iran.

"U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry disclosed Netanyahu’s plans, causing Obama to threaten to “shoot down Israeli planes” if they attempted to attack Iran." . . .

Obama declares his readiness to down Israeli fighter jets
. . . "The meeting was held after it became known that Barack Obama's administration and the clergy of Iran had concluded a secret agreement.

"Israel even conducted test flights of its fighter jets in the airspace of Iran after it became possible to overcome the radar protection. However, US Secretary of State John Kerry disclosed Netanyahu's plans. Afterwards, Obama threatened to shoot down Israeli planes on their way to Iran. As a result, the Israeli Prime Minister had to curtail the operation. The relationship between Israel and the United States have been worsening since then.

"Benjamin Netanyahu has recently expressed opposition to Obama's intention to sign the agreement with Iran on its nuclear program. The Israeli politician promised to make every effort not to let the parties sign the document. The White House accused Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu of having a destructive approach to the relations between the United States and Israel. "


Here is the headline as it appeared in Russian

Recently after Speaker of the House, John Boehner publicly announced he had invited Netanyahou to speak to Congress, Obama made a striking reply!
Standing alone
Now Israel considers the prospect of standing alone as a rogue White House continues to exercise a vain effort at preserving Obama’s legacy, whatever that may be, and endangering the existence of the Jewish state by allowing an Iranian nuclear arsenal at the traitorous and bungling hands of the White House with the help of Sec. State John Kerry. This is a perilous prelude to a third world war beginning in the Middle East! Still Congress does nothing to stop the mad man at the helm, Barack Hussein Obama!

The New, New Hillary 4.0

Hillary Clinton’s ‘Humor and Heart’ Showcased in Duck-Calling Video
. . . "Hillary Clinton’s latest reboot, as told to New York Times reporter Amy Chozick by campaign insiders, will involve more humor, heart and spontaneity:

There will be no more flip jokes about her private email server. There will be no rope lines to wall off crowds, which added to an impression of aloofness. And there will be new efforts to bring spontaneity to a candidacy that sometimes seems wooden and overly cautious.

"Of course, those spontaneous moments will no doubt be planned in advance, right down to the minutest details." . . .

Hillary Repeating 2008 Mistakes 

“In 2008, the Democrats were told, ‘Hillary is the heir presumptive. Let her get on with it and win the nomination.’ And she loused it up. She defeated herself,” Steyn said. “This time round, Joe Biden was told again, ‘Hillary is the heir presumptive.’ And she’s loused it up again. And the fact is, neither he nor any other Democrat should just sit around just watching this slow-motion train wreck.”

Clinton Takes Tough Shot at Obama    Good for her.

. . . “ 'I'm gonna fight for all the people like my mother who need somebody in their corner,” Clinton said, before adding: “And they need a leader who cares about them again.”

"The clear implication: America hasn’t had such a leader in recent years. And it’s hard to read that comment as anything but a shot at President Obama, who has occupied the White House for the past 6.5 years." . . .

Wasserman Schultz on Clinton-Friendly Debate Schedule: Other Dems Can ‘Campaign in a Retail Way’

"Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) insisted there’s nothing unfair about the party’s minuscule schedule of six sanctioned debates because candidates should be out shaking hands anyway.
"Other Democrats, particularly former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, have complained that the debate schedule is nothing less than a coronation for the DNC’s chosen favorite, Hillary Clinton.
"Without time in front of a national audience, the non-Clinton candidates don’t have much hope of gaining needed traction in the polls." . . .

America's Descent into Lawlessness

Victor Davis Hanson . . . "Hundreds of liberal sanctuary cities have announced that federal immigration law does not apply to them. That scary, neo-Confederate idea of legal nullification was sanctioned by the Obama administration — in a way it never would have been if a city had suspended the Endangered Species Act, emissions standards, or gun-control legislation.

"As a result, once-detained and later-released immigrants with criminal records have murdered innocent American citizens.

"Consider the proposed nuclear deal with Iran. By past custom and practice, the nonproliferation agreement would be treated as what it is — a treaty.

"But ratifying treaties constitutionally requires 67 yes votes from the Senate. Obama could never obtain that margin. So he managed to downgrade the treaty into a mere legal agreement. Then he claimed that the Senate required 67 no votes to override his veto.

"Just as scary is the application of the law on the basis of the perceived politics of a suspect." Read more   Emphasis added, TD

Best quotes from the "Stop Iran" rally

Karin McQuillan   "This is a very dark moment in American history, and indeed world history.    As the Rally Against Iran was in progress on the lawn before the Capital, inside the building, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell announced he will do nothing to stop the Democrats from arming and funding Iran, the world’s greatest terror state, Iran.  Is the fate of our country really to be left to such weak and cowardly hands?

"The Democrat and Republican politicians are knowingly sacrificing thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands or millions of lives to their short-term well-being.  For them, it is mere politics as usual.

"But in front of Congress, thousands of citizens gathered to express their outrage and hear from a list of fabulous conservative patriots.  There were great lines from many speakers.  Senator Ted Cruz, Donald Trump, Mark Levin, Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck were there. Some of the lesser known speakers were amazing.

"The standouts for me were the lead speakers,  Mark Levin, Senator Cruz, and Donald Trump. 

"Michele Bachmann was an unexpected standout.  She alone called for both a legislation and military alternative to what I call the Obama-Iran Treaty." . . .     Read more.

“They chant ‘death to America’ 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and we ought to take them at their word.”  At the anti-Obama/Iran deal rally:
. . . "The crowd, for the most part, was focused on protesting not only the specific Iranian nuclear deal, but the path down which Obama’s foreign policy has taken us. 100% of the attendees I talked to see the deal as one more foolish, stupid, naive move by the Obama Administration. For most, opposition was apolitical; I spoke to many people who were grateful for the protest votes of Chuck Schumer and other Democrats, even if those announcements came too little and too late to give the White House pause.

"These signs were floating around everywhere, and for the most part sum up the mood in the crowd:" . . .
As I walked through the crowd, I saw enormous support not just for our own congress critters voicing opposition to the deal, but for our allies in Israel who have spoken out against doing business with Iran. I talked to several activists who were concerned about the growing divide between the United States and Israel; some expressed doubt as to whether or not the alliance could ever repair itself if Obama and the Democrats manage to get this deal shoved through Congress.

And you thought "Cold Justice" was just another lady cop show

Father convicted of his wife's murder EIGHT YEARS after she disappeared from their home because TV show Cold Justice reviewed the case

. . . "Another concerning development came weeks later, when Goraya gave their son over to child protective services, despite Rupinder's relatives saying she loved the boy and would never have allowed it if she was intending to return home. 

"While detectives never bought any of Goraya's stories, they also couldn't find any evidence that Rupinder had been harmed, so they couldn't charge him over the disappearance.

"However, when going back over the evidence, the Cold Justice team found multiple people who Goraya had confessed to killing his wife to.

"Neighbors reported Goraya threatening them while drunk, telling them that he could 'make them disappear like my wife'.

"Another witness, Chris Justice, said Goraya told him that he strangled his wife because 'she talked too much and lied to him'.

"Goraya was arrested back in January charged with second degree murder, and was today found guilty after trial." . . .

Galen Institute: ObamaCare co-ops

ObamaCare Co-ops: Cause Célèbre or Costly Conundrum? August 31, 2015
"The Affordable Care Act created a new kind of “cooperative” health insurance arrangement heralded by supporters of health reform.  The co-ops were founded on the idealistic belief that community members could band together to create health insurance companies that would be member-driven, service-oriented, and would not have to answer to shareholders or turn a profit.

"But the 23 co-ops that were created had significant start-up costs, no experiential data upon which to set premiums, generally had to pay extra to lease physician and hospital networks, and had few people in the companies and none on their boards with insurance experience.
. . .
"This paper will take a deeper look at co-ops in Iowa, Kentucky, Tennessee, and other states that reveal their precarious financial condition.

Ann Coulter on the Muslim invasion of Western nations

REFUGEES: ANOTHER ONE FOR THE "NOT OUR PROBLEM" FILE

"Among the benefits of Donald Trump's proposed immigration moratorium is that we won't have to keep importing hordes of Third World "refugees," such as the ones currently swarming across Europe.

 "For decades, the United States has taken in far more refugees than the entire rest of the world combined. Nearly half of the refugees we take in are Muslim.

 "And it's worked out great!

 "Fazliddin Kurbanov, or "Idaho man," as he is dutifully described in the American media, was brought to the U.S. as a refugee in 2009, joining hundreds of other Uzbeks in Boise, Idaho. He came with his wife and young child, his sister and his two ailing parents. (What an economic powerhouse that family must be. Marco Rubio is right: We're making all kinds of money off of immigrants!)

"   So grateful was Kurbanov to America for rescuing his entire family from "persecution" that he spent the next few years conspiring to commit jihad against us.

"  As he cheerfully told his terrorist buddies back in Uzbekistan: "We are the closest ones to infidels. We have almost everything. What would you say if, with the help of God, we implement a martyrdom act? ... There are military installations right here, targets, and vehicles are available as well." . . .

Obama at the Gates of Vienna  "Yes, of course ISIS is Islamic. "

" . . .Harris makes a point of saying: “In drawing a connection between the doctrine of Islam and jihadist violence, I am talking about ideas and their consequences, not about 1.5 billion nominal Muslims, many of whom do not take their religion very seriously.” However, he goes on to point out that:

a belief in martyrdom, a hatred of infidels, and a commitment to violent jihad are not fringe phenomena in the Muslim world. These preoccupations are supported by the Koran and numerous hadith. That is why the popular Saudi cleric Mohammed Al-Areefi sounds like the ISIS army chaplain. The man has 9.5 million followers on Twitter (twice as many as Pope Francis has). If you can find an important distinction between the faith he preaches and that which motivates the savagery of ISIS, you should probably consult a neurologist.
Understanding and criticizing the doctrine of Islam — and finding some way to inspire Muslims to reform it — is one of the most important challenges the civilized world now faces. But the task isn’t as simple as discrediting the false doctrines of Muslim “extremists,” because most of their views are not false by the light of scripture. A hatred of infidels is arguably the central message of the Koran. The reality of martyrdom and the sanctity of armed jihad are about as controversial under Islam as the resurrection of Jesus is under Christianity. It is not an accident that millions of Muslims recite the shahadah or make pilgrimage to Mecca. Neither is it an accident that horrific footage of infidels and apostates being decapitated has become a popular form of pornography throughout the Muslim world. Each of these practices, including this ghastly method of murder, find explicit support in scripture.

. . .
" . . .What Hitchens left out is the chilling demand that Mehmet IV, the Sultan of the Islamic Ottoman Empire, made of Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I:

Primarily we order You to await Us in Your residence city of Vienna so that We can decapitate You.…We will exterminate You and all Your followers.…Children and grown-ups will be exposed to the most atrocious tortures before put to an end in the most ignominious way imaginable…

Background:  Battle of Vienna * The battle took place in 1683....on September 11

We will yet see if hordes of Muslim immigrants make Vienna their destination.

*Not to be confused with the siege of Vienna in 1485

The original 1944 movie of the Memphis Belle

The Memphis Belle - A Story Of A Flying Fortress (1944)

Memphis Belle, the bomber
Memphis Belle is the nickname of a Boeing B-17F Flying Fortress during the Second World War that inspired the making of two motion pictures: a 1944 documentary film, Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress, and a 1990 Hollywood feature film, Memphis Belle. The aircraft was one of the first B-17 United States Army Air Forces heavy bombers to complete 25 combat missions with her crew intact.^[1] The aircraft and crew then returned to the United States to sell war bonds.^[2] As of 2014, the aircraft is undergoing extensive restoration at the National Museum of the United States Air Force at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio.

Some comments from the YouTube link:

The video title is wrong. The Memphis Belle completed its 25th mission in 1943. Anyway I love the Memphis Belle. My favourite B17 ever!

   

WarBird Productions (WarBirdsOfWW2) 1 month ago

This is original footage of the Memphis Belle's last mission so it can't be made in 1944 unless you mean it was shown in 1944.   

+WarBird Productions yes the final mission of the belle was 1943 but the documentary was made in 1944 so the video title is not wrong

Obama Surrogates SPEARHEADING “War On Cops.” What’s Their Real Agenda?

"WHEN Senator Obama catapulted (seemingly) out of nowhere into the White House, he promised to “heal the racial divide”, over and over again. Yet, it was at a time when blacks were enjoying steadily increased upward mobility, some even more so than whites. Yes, there are enumerable poor whites too!

"THE question dawned to some of us “knuckle-draggers”: What “wrongs needed to be righted”, when so many advancements for blacks – particularly, its growing middle class – were visible, other than those whipped up by professional race-baiters who are perpetually aggrieved, hyper-charged and highly paid hucksters? Always at the ready, they have many thousands of foot soldiers on tap. To what end? Wait. Read." . . .

"In a video posted to YouTube on Tuesday, a Black Lives Matter activist declares that it’s now “open season” for killing white people and police officers. Showing an image of black people standing on the U.S. flag, the host of the BlogTalkRadio program talks about “picking off” police officers.

“ 'And,” the host says, “there’s nothing” that white people can do about it. “His day is up,” the unidentified host adds, speaking of white people." . . .

Bergdahl faces “Misbehavior before the enemy” charge

Bowe Bergdahl to Face Rare Military Charge



"Since his return to the U.S. in 2014, there’s been much speculation over which charges (if any) Bowe Bergdahl, alleged military deserter and former Taliban captive, would have to face. Tough criticism came from some of his fellow servicemen who believe Bergdahl is a deserter.
"A new report from the Associated Press via the Houston Chronicle says that Bergdahl will face one charge that’s extremely rare:

Military selects rarely used charge for Bergdahl case
Military prosecutors have reached into a section of military law seldom used since World War II in the politically fraught case against Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, the soldier held prisoner for years by the Taliban after leaving his post in Afghanistan.
Observers wondered for months if Bergdahl would be charged with desertion after the deal brokered by the U.S. to bring him home. He was — but he was also charged with misbehavior before the enemy, a much rarer offense that carries a stiffer potential penalty in this case.
“I’ve never seen it charged,” Walter Huffman, a retired major general who served as the Army’s top lawyer, said of the misbehavior charge. “It’s not something you find in common everyday practice in the military.”

Bergdahl could face a life sentence if convicted of the charge, which accuses him of endangering fellow soldiers when he “left without authority; and wrongfully caused search and recovery operations.”

"No. "And here’s why.

"(It is regrettable to have to say “regrettably” when talking about this, but Muslims pose a unique threat to free people everywhere.) "By the end of 2016, the State Department anticipates we will have brought as many as 10,000 Syrians to the United States. It’s safe to assume that number is low since just last month the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) submitted the names of more than 16,000 refugees from Syria for resettlement in the United States. Either way, this is just the beginning. The State Department expects the numbers to “surge” over the few years. "Numbers aside, the issue of Syrian refugees must be put into a larger context. (And, just for the record, the word refugees really should be put in quotes, as will be explained later.) "First, everyone must ask why so many Islamic nations are refusing these refugees.

"The glib rhetoric that accompanied the pullout of American troops from Iraq was displayed once again when the rise of ISIS was dismissed as just a junior-varsity team trying to look like a serious threat.

Father Government’s Multimillion Dollar Plan to Trick Kids Into Eating School Lunches   " . . .The U.S.D.A. wants to trick your kids into eating school lunches and have come up with some ideas. They could put these ideas in a memo and send it to schools but have instead decided to set up training programs at great expense. Why do with a memo what you can spend millions to do?

"Don’t take this wrong, kids need to eat healthy and good ideas are welcomed but why is it when Big Government does it, it’s an expensive failure?

"CNS News reported that government employees now outnumber those employed in manufacturing by 1.8 to 1 according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. It’s good news for unions but it’s not good for America.

"Government gives us unfettered Big Government control and employees who are virtually unaccountable. Speaking of unaccountable employees, the Agriculture Secretary is spending tax dollars on trying to control what our children eat. They mean well but they don’t know what they are doing.

"They have added fruits and vegetables to the processed school lunches and eliminated deserts and other foods children enjoy. A lot more of the lunches are ending up in the trash." . . .
