Links on the murderous jihad in San Bernardino

ISIS claim responsibility for California massacre   "ISIS has claimed responsibility for the California attack on a social services agency that left 14 people dead.
The terror group announced in an online radio broadcast that two ISIS followers had carried out the attack in San Bernardino on Wednesday.
Two followers of Islamic State attacked several days ago a center in San Bernardino in California,’ the group’s daily broadcast al-Bayan said.

Media Lies to Protect Sensibilities* of Terrorists
*Um, "sensitivities"?  Anyway:  . . . "Two attackers were killed, and for hours the media didn’t mention the nationality of the two dead Muslims. However, most Americans came to the conclusion this attack was probably carried out by Muslim jihadis since there were no reports about the description shooters who was killed.
"The logic was a process of elimination. If the shooters were black, the name would have been released,not the ethnicity. Had they been white, everyone knows that news would be out faster than a monkey riding a bike by Loma Linda."
White House: San Bernardino shooters not part of a terrorist cell   . . . The team that briefed the president included FBI Director James Comey, Attorney General Loretta Lynch and Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson." . . .

Media Malpractice On Mass Shootings After Calif. Attack
"Media Bias: The mainstream press likes to say it is the guardian of truth, protecting the masses from bogus information on the Web. But in the wake of the San Bernardino shooting, it was the one peddling it.
In the past few days, just about every major media outlet made the same claim: that there have been 355 mass shootings in the U.S. this year.



Welcome to Global Governance! Climate Change Agreement Reached

S. Noble   
 climate

"The US is now responsible for developing poor countries throughout the world thanks to Barack Obama and his crew.
"An agreement on the blueprint was reached today by 195 countries.
"The draft states: “Developed countries shall provide developing countries with long-term, scaled-up, predictable, new and additional finance, technology and capability-building.”
"They are going to slow the pace of climate change. Think of how insane that sounds.
"They are going to hold global average temperatures below 1.5 degree C or well below 2 degrees Celsius increase over pre-industrial global temperatures. There goes progress. A/C will get very expensive.
"They also plan to eradicate poverty. That sounds expensive for the US." . . .

The Attorney General of the United States Is Disgracing Herself


NRO  . . . "Lynch addressed the Muslim Advocate’s tenth-anniversary dinner and declared that she is concerned about an “incredibly disturbing rise of anti-Muslim rhetoric . . . that fear is my greatest fear.” Her greatest fear is — not terrorism — but a nonexistent Islamophobic backlash? ISIS has demonstrated that it can bring down passenger jets, strike the heart of a great Western capitol with urban assault teams, and inspire horrible carnage in California. We also know that ISIS has pledged to keep attacking the U.S. and possesses chemical weapons. Yet it’s politically incorrect speech that strikes fear into the heart of our attorney general Read more

One question about our Syrian refugee "vetting" process

Green Dragon Forum

So much for our vetting process   . . . "This entire scenario should also serve as a wake-up call that Muslims living outside America bent on inflicting harm can use this K-1 (fiancĂ©) visa as an easy route into the country.  Quite likely jihadists have already figured this out and are exploiting it via dating web sites.

"So Malik flew across our border despite lying on her visa application.  And then her luck continued when a neighbor didn’t report suspicious activity at Farook’s and Malik’s home out of PC fear of profiling.
"Where is Jeh Johnson, head of the Department of Homeland Security?  He should be questioned about the ability of his department to perform the most basic of screening, but he has been entirely absent from the media since the shooting in San Bernardino began." . . .

We'd better start profiling terrorists....  "First, we need a formal declaration of war so that everyone is on board.  My guess is that most Americans understand that declaring war is a necessary step.  
"Two, we need to start profiling terrorists.  
"Back in October 2001, about a month after September 11, Peggy Noonan wrote something that stills makes a lot of sense:  " . . .
Just who in our three branches of government has the character and courage to do such a thing in the face of college riots and peace-mongers in silly costumes?


Cruz is advancing and will continue to advance

Althouse   "Let's look a this new CNN poll of registered Republicans and independents who say they lean Republican (PDF):

. . . "Cruz is the alternative to Trump who is least likely to provoke Trump to run as a third party candidate. This makes Cruz an especially compelling alternative for those who want a Republican to win the presidency and think the American electorate will balk at the too-weird Trump. Trump may almost be seen as paving the way for Cruz by developing the same issues and by making Cruz — who also has a weirdness problem — seem, by contrast, normal.

"I wonder what Hillary and her people think, who they're most afraid of. Perhaps there are so many variables that it's not worth figuring out who would be the most dangerous opponent. I've assumed that they are most worried about Rubio. Rubio is attractive, but Trump seems to hate him. I'm thinking Cruz is more dangerous, because Trump will support him. And Cruz will be harder to argue with. Hillary is excellent at maintaining a steely demeanor and she could draw sympathy with the brutish Trump insulting her. With Cruz, she will have to engage in a much more active substantive, verbal way. "

"Daily Beast  The first image of suspected San Bernardino shooter Tashfeen Malik has emerged Friday evening, as obtained by ABC News. Malik, who allegedly pledged allegiance to ISIS around the time she and husband Syed Farook killed 14 people on Wednesday, was born in Pakistan and moved to Saudi Arabia 25 years ago. She and U.S.-born Farook met on a dating website and married in the summer of 2014. She came to America on a K1 “fiancĂ©” visa and received her green card this summer."

A Response to a Black Student at Columbia

"The notion that she is “looking at history through the lens of these powerful, white men” means that race trumps profundity, wisdom, beauty and excellence. Thus, Shakespeare is not the greatest playwright we know of, he is just a white European (and male, to boot). Likewise Beethoven, Bach and other Western composers did not compose what is arguably the greatest music ever composed; they, too, were first and foremost white.

"Two weeks ago, the Columbia University newspaper, the Spectator, published an article titled “Students, faculty address institutionalized racism at University Life event.”
"As described in the article, one example of the institutionalized racism that black Columbia students must endure is the university’s Core Curriculum.
"In the words of one of the panelists, fifth-year undergraduate student Nissy Aya, a young black woman, “It’s traumatizing to sit in Core classes. We are looking at history through the lens of these powerful, white men. I have no power or agency as a black woman, so where do I fit in?”
"Her words are worthy of analysis and response." . . .

Robert Gates writes in WaPo: The kind of president we need

. . . "Restrained from questioning the motives of those who disagree and treating them as enemies with no redeeming qualities." . . .
Robert M. Gates   The writer served as secretary of defense in the George W. Bush and Obama administrations.

"Many Americans are mad as hell at our political leaders — both Republican and Democrat — and are giving voice to their anger through the likes of Donald Trump and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). The anger is understandable. The federal government is paralyzed, unable to tackle any of the major problems facing our country or even accomplish basic functions such as enacting annual budgets for federal departments and agencies. The anger derives equally from governmental ineptitude, arrogance and corruption, and self-serving politicians more concerned with getting reelected than with the nation’s future.
"The next president will face major domestic problems, as well as the challenges posed by Iran, Russia, China, North Korea, terrorism and a Middle East in turmoil. What kind of qualities should we be looking for in a new chief executive? Based on my experience working for eight presidents, of both political parties, here is my take:" . . .
. . . "The next president must lead in restoring civility to our political process. We must hope that the president we elect next year will again and again remind all Americans of our common destiny, and that our fate as a nation and as a people is bound up with one another. Our new leader should appeal, in President Abraham Lincoln’s words, to “the better angels of our nature.' ”

A WORLDWIDE REVOLUTION

The Freedom Fighter's Journal




“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed;
if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly;
you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.
There may even be a worse case.
You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”  
Sir Winston Churchill

French Reporters Stunned At Obama’s Ignorance: . . .

DCWhispers  "Now it appears some among the Climate Summit’s host-nation French media were just as outraged by Barack Obama’s glaringly ignorant commentary regarding how mass shootings only happen in the United States – and said those words while standing on a stage in Paris less than two weeks after that city saw hundreds of its citizens gunned down and blown up by Muslim terrorists in a mass shooting attack."


"It is said that following what was at times a painfully slow, slouching, and seemingly disinterested performance by President Obama, some among the French media were heard repeatedly using the words, “Connard!” and  “Trouduc!” to describe their feelings regarding Mr. Obama’s bizarre commentary – phrases rather specific to a certain part of the human anatomy.
"(Apologies to our French-speaking readers.)
"And in what is likely very much related news, Mr. Obama’s own Secretary of Defense said today before Congress that ISIS had never been contained – a comment that is in direct opposition to the president’s earlier declarations. It appears some within the administration have had enough of Barack Obama’s glaring ignorance and arrogance that is placing so many at risk." . . .

Hat tip to Rebels at Heart

The only way Hillary can be certain that Bill did not commit rape

"To every survivor of sexual assault...You have the right to be heard. You have the right to be believed. We're with you." —Hillary
http://www.redstate.com/2015/12/04/woman-campaign-event-trolls-hillary-clinton-video/

Woman asks Hillary: If all rape accusers have the right to be believed, should we believe the women who say your husband raped them?



"Exit question: If accusers have a right to be taken seriously, if not quite “believed,” does that mean she took Broaddrick seriously when she first accused Bill of assault? That’s a follow-up question for the next townhall attendee who gets to quiz her."


Ed Straker  . . .  "During a campaign event in New Hampshire today, Hillary Clinton was asked about the women who accused her husband of rape and sexual assault.
The woman pointed out how Clinton recently said all rape victims should be believed, and then asked, “Would you say that about Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey, and/or Paula Jones?”
Clinton responded by saying, “I would say that everybody should be believed at first until they are disbelieved based on evidence.”
"What does that mean, disbelieved based on the evidence?  What evidence is there that can exonerate Bill Clinton from these rape charges?  As I recall, Paula Jones accused the president of trying to force her to give him oral sex.  Kathleen Willey said that Mr. Clinton fondled her breasts and placed her hands on his genitals.  Juanita Broaddrick said that Mr. Clinton forced her down on a bed, bit her lip, and raped her.
What evidence is there that can disprove these claims?"


"Exit question: Which do you think is more likely, that Hillary is lying to protect her husband or telling the truth to protect her husband?"

Terrorist Pledged Allegiance to ISIS But It’s Believed to Be Workplace Violence
syed-and-wife-malik-575x365

. . . "A federal official said Farook has “overseas communications and associations,” but it’s not yet clear how relevant they are to the shootings. “We don’t know yet what they mean,” the official said, according to CNN in the same article. If so, why are they focusing on workplace violence?
The administration is going to make an obvious case of terror tied to ISIS into a workplace violence incident if they can. They drop their propaganda in the newspapers before they come up with their foregone conclusion.

"FBI official David Bowdich said on Thursday that “it would be irresponsible and premature for me to call this terrorism.” Authorities also haven’t ruled out what President Barack Obama called “mixed motives,” meaning that Islamic radicalism and workplace grievances both could have driven the attack.
The attack was planned in advance and their baby was dropped off to a relative’s house at 9 am, not after Farook became angry at the Christmas party. Everyone is ignoring the fact that this was a Christmas party in a government building and he killed infidels." . . .

"Struggling to offer an alternative explanation for the obvious conclusion of terrorism, CNN’s Erin Burnett on Thursday wondered if one of the killers from Wednesday’s rampage snapped as a result of “postpartum psychosis.” This was after two former FBI agents explained to Burnett just how Tashfeen Malik was radicalized." . . .

Obama Jumps Gun, Blames Second Amendment For Calif. Terrorism   . . . "Last month, another bearded Muslim carried out his own jihad in Northern California with nothing more than a 10-inch hunting knife.

"Faisal Mohammad had no gun and didn't go on a shooting spree. He instead went on a stabbing spree, trying to behead people on the campus of the University of California in Merced. He ended up slashing and stabbing four people before police caught up to him and shot him dead. He might have been stopped sooner had the area not been a gun-free zone." . . .
