What about Quranic slavery, Colin?

Tundra Tabloids

WND  "Colin Kaepernik “seemingly converted to Islam at his girlfriend’s urging and is now a self-styled black Muslim,” Larry Klayman writes. Klayman also refers to reports of Kaepernick’s relationship with Black Lives Matter activist DJ Nessa Diab. Therefore, it’s probably worth investigating whether George Soros, BLM funder, is actually behind the Kaepernik stunt. Would it surprise anyone if Soros were?

"In any case, does Kaepernick know that Muhammad himself was a slaver and a slaveholder? Slavery is permitted in the Quran and practiced to this day in certain parts of the world. Throughout their history, Arab Muslims made slaves of tens of millions of black Africans; they often castrated the men and boys. Millions of black Africans died of maltreatment during enslavement by Muslim Arabs. Why doesn’t Kaepernik and his ilk call out Islam for its abominable history of cruel slavery that is still practiced by ISIS, for example?

"Kaepernik is evading another reality. Does he care that 3 percent of the U.S. population, young black males (15-35), commit over half of all homicides America and the plurality of other violent crimes? Does he care that every year about 6,000 people are killed by blacks and that most of their victims are black? Will Kaepernik take any responsibility for ignoring the core problem of black-on-black crime by shifting the narrative to the police without whom black-on-black crime would soar to much higher levels?"

Black lives matter? Then support charter schools

 'It is hard to see any racial issue that matters as much as education'



Thomas Sowell  "Ordinarily, it is not a good idea to base how you vote on just one issue. But if black lives really matter, as they should matter like all other lives, then it is hard to see any racial issue that matters as much as education.

"The government could double the amount of money it spends on food stamps or triple the amount it spends on housing subsidies, and it will mean very little if the next generation of young blacks goes out into the world as adults without a decent education.

"Many things that are supposed to help blacks actually have a track record of making things worse. Minimum wage laws have had a devastating effect in making black teenage unemployment several times higher than it once was.

"In my own life, I was very fortunate when I left home in 1948, at age 17 – a high school dropout with no skills or experience. At that time, the unemployment rate of black 16- and 17-year-old males was 9.4 percent. For white males the same ages, it was 10.2 percent.

"Why were these unemployment rates so much lower than we have become used to seeing in later times – and with very little difference between blacks and whites?" . . .

"Apparently, these black children’s futures do not matter enough for black politicians – including the president of the United States – to stand up to the teachers’ unions. The teachers’ unions produce big bucks in campaign contributions and big voter turnout on election day.
"Any politician, of any race or party, who fights against charter schools that give many black youngsters their one shot at a decent life does not deserve the vote of anybody who really believes that black lives matter.

Hillary’s problem is paranoia, not pneumonia

Legal Insurrection
"How many stories and spins can Clinton World fit on the head of a pin within 24 hours?"

"The history of Hillary Clinton is one of deep paranoia.

"From the secretive health care taskforce during her husband’s presideny to the secret home server, fear of sunlight drives her actions.

"And the mainstream media is a willing participant most of the way until the obvious can no longer be denied or covered up.

"There is no better example than Hillary’s “medical event” at the 9/11 Memorial service yesterday. For weeks the mainstream media and the Clinton campaign have been berating anyone who pointed out that her coughing fits were not only odd, but perhaps a sign of deeper trouble. The wagons were circled.

"Then, yesterday Hillary collapsed. The video is devastating. Hillary starts out propped up by a stone auto barrier, but even then looks wobbly. As soon as the van pulls up Hillary goes into obvious convulsions as she tries to move towards the van while being held up by her arms. Even so, she falls forward towards the ground as she is dragged into the waiting van." . . .

MSNBC Goes far, far out to defend Hillary's episode:

"The original Clinton world and mainstream media reaction was that it was no big deal, just a little heat problem.

"Clinton hacks on Twitter immediately took to verifying that it was HOT HOT HOT in NYC that day, even though demonstrably it was NOT NOT NOT."

Weather Underground says it was 78.6 degrees

Could top Democrats push for the presidential election to be suspended if Hillary Clinton drops out due to her ill health?

"Now with top DNC strategists holding a crisis meeting to discuss whether to replace Hillary with another candidate, could the entire election be suspended?

"As HeatSt reports, “The Democratic National Committee reserves the right to replace a candidate who dies or drops out, and it doesn’t provide additional details in its by-laws. So presumably the Democrats would have to make up the process up as they go along.”

"However, a temporary Obama 3rd term wouldn’t be out of the question either because, as U.S. News & World Report noted last month, “The presidential election could be delayed or scrapped altogether if conspiracy theories become predictive and a candidate dies or drops out before Nov. 8.' ” . .  .

The Deplorables UPDATED!

American Thinker

Will “Basket of Deplorables” become the new “47 Percent”?  "Nothing says woman of the people like a political candidate who got filthy rich while serving in the Senate and State Department insulting millions of voters while surrounded by celebrities, right? Hillary Clinton shifted her attack from Donald Trump to his supporters at a fundraiser in New York City, putting “half” of them into “a basket of deplorables.” That’s a memorable turn of phrase, but will Hillary want to forget it?"

Updates:

I’m Deplorable and I’m Proud  

“The only way to beat [the left],” I wrote, “is to stand your ground, to not apologize for yourself or for your political allies, even those less verbally adroit. An apology is never enough.” Progressives, I added, “want you to grovel, and then they want you gone.”

 "Friday night, Hillary Clinton said out loud what our progressive friends have long been thinking. It may cost her the election.

"Half of Donald Trump’s supporters, claimed Hillary, were merely anxious about the future. The other half belonged in a "basket of deplorables." What made them deplorable, said Hillary, was that they were "racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, you name it.' "

Hillary’s ‘Deplorables’ Comment: Alienating Critical Independents

. . . "Plenty of average voters know a family member, friend, coworker, or neighbor who’s backing The Donald and know they aren’t double-secret KKK just itching to burn crosses on black people’s or Hispanics’ lawns. The charge isn’t credible and should bite Hillary hard where it hurts most: at ballot boxes in critical states this autumn."

Occidental College to investigate vandalism of 9/11 memorial

Same guys who spit on our GIs returning from Vietnam

LA Daily News

. . . "The memorial, consisting of 2,997 tiny American flags, was put in place in the quad area Saturday night by members of the student organization the Occidental College Republican Club, with each flag representing a victim of the Sept, 11, 2001, terror attacks,

But by Sunday morning, the club reported that the memorial had been trashed. On their Facebook page, the Occidental College Republican Club said that vandals had “crushed, snapped, and threw in the garbage every single flag. Not one was left on the ground.”

The group also claimed that posters and flyers had been posted on campus that “shamed the victims of 9/11.”

Occidental College issued a statement saying they don’t know yet who is responsible for the incident, but that they are investigating “and will take disciplinary action.”

IDF Veteran Danny Lewin, the first person killed on 9/11/2001. Heart-breaking video from ground zero.

Legal Insurrection   "This year, I learned of Danny Lewin, likely the first victim of the 9/11 attack, via a 2013 book review in The Tablet magazine I saw linked on Facebook:

By most accounts, Danny Lewin was the first victim of 9/11. Seated in seat 9B aboard American Airlines flight 11, he saw Mohamed Atta and Abdulaziz al-Omari, sitting just in front of him, rise and make their way to the cockpit. According to calls from flight attendants to air traffic officials, later documented in the 9/11 Commission’s report, Lewin wasted no time in acting. Having served as an officer in Sayeret Matkal, the Israel Defense Forces’ top unit, he moved to tackle the terrorists. The man in 10B, Satam al-Suqami, moved, too, producing a knife and slitting Lewin’s throat. Less than 30 minutes later, at 8:46 a.m., the plane crashed into the World Trade Center’s North Tower." . . .

"Each anniversary of the 9/11 attack it’s important for me to learn something new when researching a post.

"In past years I’ve learned of the recording that Melissa Harrington Hughes left on her home answering machine for her husband, 9/11/01 and Memory:" . . .

Grisly memory that can haunt us. But first you need to know what a PASS Device is: 

" . . .a personal safety device used primarily by firefighters entering a hazardous (IDLH) environment such as a burning building. The PASS device sounds a loud (95 decibel) audible alert to notify others in the area that the firefighter is in distress. On a fireground, the sound of an activated PASS device indicates a true emergency and results in an immediate response to rescue the firefighter(s) in distress."

Having learned this, watch this heart-breaking video with your sound up.

. . . "And I located a recording of the chirping sound of PASS devices I remembered so well, each one representing the death of a first responder, I never have been able to erase that sound from my memory:"

What the Benghazi attack taught me about Hillary Clinton

legalinsurrection.com

Gregory N. Hicks  "Last month, I retired from the State Department after 25 years of public service as a Foreign Service officer. As the Deputy Chief of Mission for Libya, I was the last person in Tripoli to speak with Ambassador Chris Stevens before he was murdered in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack on our Benghazi post. On this, the fourth anniversary of the Benghazi tragedy, I would like to offer a different explanation for Benghazi’s relevance to the presidential election than is usually found in the press.

"Just as the Constitution makes national security the President’s highest priority, U.S. law mandates the secretary of state to develop and implement policies and programs "to provide for the security … of all United States personnel on official duty abroad.”

"This includes not only the State Department employees, but also the CIA officers in Benghazi on Sept. 11, 2012. And the Benghazi record is clear: Secretary Clinton failed to provide adequate security for U.S. government personnel assigned to Benghazi and Tripoli.
. . .
"When asked about security at Benghazi on Sept. 11, Mrs. Clinton has repeatedly asserted her lack of responsibility. Initially, she said that she never read any of the reporting on security conditions or any of the requests for additional security, claiming that “she delegated security to the professionals.” More recently, she stated that “[I]t was not my ball to carry.” But the law says otherwise. Sound familiar?

Her decision to allow the Benghazi consulate to be separate from the CIA annex divided scarce resources in a progressively deteriorating security environment. U.S. personnel assigned to Benghazi tried to overcome this severe disadvantage through an agreement that the security personal from each facility would rush to the other facility’s aid in the event it was attacked. The division of our security resources in Benghazi is the root cause of the “stand down” order controversy so vividly portrayed in the movie “13 Hours.”
. . .
"Candidate Clinton and her campaign point to her record as secretary of state as a positive qualification for the presidency.

"However, the record shows that Secretary Clinton persuaded the president to overthrow Qaddafi and advocated maintaining a diplomatic presence in Benghazi after the Libyan revolution. And then she abandoned her diplomats by ignoring her security obligations. She sent Ambassador Stevens to Benghazi during the 2011 revolution and then induced him to return in the first few months of his tenure, which accounted for his September visit there. Despite the fact that Sidney Blumenthal had alerted her to the increasing danger for Americans in Benghazi and Libya, Mrs. Clinton apparently never asked security professionals for an updated briefing on the situation in Libya. Either she could not correlate the increased tempo of attacks in Libya with the safety of our diplomats, demonstrating fatal incompetence, or she was grossly negligent.

"If Mrs. Clinton was unable to fulfill her security obligations to the federal employees she was legally obligated to protect as secretary of state, how can we trust her with the security of our entire country? I won’t."

9/11 Moment Of Silence Moved Up Because Obama Was Impatient

"The moment of silence was originally slotted to take place at 9:37 AM — the time at which the Pentagon was attacked on September 11 — but ended up taking place a few minutes early.

Daily Caller   "A moment of silence remembering the September 11 victims at a Pentagon memorial service began early in order to accommodate a restless President Obama, a Department of Defense official told The Daily Caller."

"A source close to the situation told TheDC that Obama arrived early to the memorial service — which took place at the Pentagon — and wanted to get things started early.

"A Department of Defense official confirmed that the moment of silence was moved up a few minutes and that Obama was the one who made the decision, saying the president “moved early.' ”

Maybe he had a tee time to make.

10 ways 9/11 changed life in America

Leo Homann in World Net Daily:  

. . . "Most of the changes have not greatly affected the ability of Islamic terrorists to get into the country and harm Americans, say civil-liberties advocates. The bulk of the burden of the new laws and regulations has been shouldered by native-born Americans while potential jihadists find it easier than ever to enter as refugees, asylum seekers, students, tourists and work-related visa holders, says Robert Spencer, author of the JihadWatch blog and numerous books about Islam.

"This demonization of the right as “terrorists” is something the left has always sought to achieve but 9/11 made it much easier.“ 'That was a direct consequence of the official denial that Islam and jihad had anything to do with terrorism,” Spencer told WND. “That meant that some other terrorists had to be found to justify the regulations, even if sometimes by well-intentioned people who intended to use the laws to investigate and prosecute jihadists but knew they could not get them over except by speaking about ‘militias’ and ‘right-wing’ extremists. This played into the hands of the left’s agenda to demonize the right and associate it with terrorism.”

“ 'They ruled the arguments of the right outside the realm of acceptable discourse, while simultaneously whitewashing the jihad threat,” Spencer said.

"Anti-Shariah activist Pamela Geller lays most of the blame at the feet of the Obama administration." . . .

Hillary's health moves to the top of the pile

Politico: Clinton scare shakes up the race  "The incident comes after two weeks of tightening polls that have seen Trump close to within striking distance nationally and in some battleground states and capped off what was arguably the shakiest 48 hours of her general-election

campaign that began when she called Trump supporters “deplorables,” a rare gaffe by a fastidiously stage-managed candidate."
. . . 

"One Republican lobbyist who raises money for Trump offered the campaign similar advice: “Trump should not say or tweet a thing about Hillary’s health, unless it’s to say, ‘I hope she feels better.’ He needs to be very careful and sensitive, and not reinforce the worse things people think about him. . . "

"A person close to Trump hoped – and doubted – he could toe that line." . . .

Hillary Clinton Is Being Treated for Pneumonia, Leaves 9/11 Ceremony Feeling 'Overheated' (New York Times)

Yeshiva World News, Israel  "Hillary Clinton has pneumonia, her doctor said Sunday, hours after the Democratic nominee stumbled and exited a 9/11 commemoration ceremony early."  Wayne Dupree thinks different.

What is happening with Hillary in this video?   "Hillary Clinton was being escorted into her van by security after she had an emergency medical episode during the 9/11 memorial. Reports say she felt “dizzy, disoriented”, and passed out. You can see she was unable to walk, her head was bobbling, and they had to basically drag and carry her into the van.

"The overheating explanation seems far fetched, they had to literally drag her. " . . .

Roger L. Simon: Will the Democrats Dump ‘Overheated’ Hillary?  "In other words, she could do, or be forced to do, what most of us did at one time or other in school—use a doctor's note to get out!

"The motivations for this medical excuse would be considerably deeper than the obvious fact that the former secretary of State has health issues of some sort.  Two other far more important factors account for Donald Trump's catching her in the polls." . . .

Hillary health 'conspiracy' goes 'mainstream'  "In the blink of an eye Sunday, the attitude about Hillary Clinton’s health among the nation’s “mainstream” media went from dismissing them as nutty “conspiracy theories” to genuine concern, if not panic."
" . . . Taking the Clinton team’s word for it on her health – in light of the episode on Sunday morning – is no longer enough. Reasonable people can – and will – have real questions about her health.' ”

On Eve of 9/11, Most Divisive President in History Says Don't 'Give in to Those Who Would Divide Us'

Independent Journal Review

During Saturday's weekly White House address, which comes the day before the 15th anniversary of 9/11, President Obama made what some might call an ironic statement (emphasis added):

"In the face of terrorism, how we respond matters. We cannot give in to those who would divide us. We cannot react in ways that erode the fabric of our society. Because it's our diversity, our welcoming of all talent, our treating of everybody fairly — no matter their race, gender, ethnicity, or faith — that's part of what makes our country great."

"According to multiple Gallup surveys, Barack Obama has been one of the most divisive presidents in modern history." . . .
