Point and counterpoint: Poland: Refusing to Import Muslims is Only Proven Counter-Terror Method

Virginia Hale  "The only way to protect Poland from Islamic terror attacks is to not allow Muslims to migrate en masse, a British-born, senior MEP for the nation’s ruling party said on Monday.
“ 'When it comes to reducing the chances of Poland being hit by [Islamist] terror attacks, the only proven method is to not allow in Muslim migrants,” Ryszard Czarnecki told local radio after an attack in London on Saturday killed seven and injured at least 48 others.
"Noting the children of Islamic immigrants have been responsible for a large number of ISIS-inspired attacks on European soil, the London-born Law and Justice (PiS) MEP said Poland is “learning from the mistakes” of other nations in the West, and so refuses to “open [its] doors to Islamic migrants.”
"Asked whether he thinks the politicians running Poland have any good advice on how to avoid terrorism for Britain, which has experienced three Jihadist attacks in three months, and other countries in Western Europe, Czarnecki said the country has “a very specific concept  — no Islamic immigrants.
“ 'With regards to Britain, we have already told them on several occasions they need to deport, not tolerate, radical migrants.
“ 'If a radical Muslim cleric in a mosque calls on his brothers in the faith … to fight the infidels, well, I think that there are grounds to expel such an imam." . . .Read more.

CATO: Terrorism and Immigration: A Risk Analysis  "Terrorism is a hazard to human life and material prosperity that should be addressed in a sensible manner whereby the benefits of actions to contain it outweigh the costs. Foreign-born terrorists who entered the country, either as immigrants or tourists, were responsible for 88 percent (or 3,024) of the 3,432 murders caused by terrorists on U.S. soil from 1975 through the end of 2015. This paper presents the first terrorism risk analysis of the visa categories those foreign-born terrorists used to enter the United States.


. . . "The federal government has an important role to play in screening foreigners who enter the United States, and to exclude those who pose a threat to the national security, safety, or health of Americans. This terrorism risk analysis of individual visa categories can aid in the efficient allocation of scarce government security resources to those categories that are most exploitable by terrorists. The hazards posed by foreign-born terrorists are not large enough to warrant extreme actions like a moratorium on all immigration or tourism." . . .

How Democrats Permanently Stole Your Vote

Image result for democrats buying votes cartoons

Michael Bargo, Jr.  "Every election cycle we hear about how every vote must count, how every voter must have equal access to the ballot box, and how no one can be denied the opportunity to express their voice to how the government is run. This concern has been seized upon as the primary interest of the Democratic Party who have made it their party's crusade to ensure fairness in every election, by the careful, fair supervision of the voting process in every voting precinct.

"But while this is the public rhetoric, the private reality is much different. The fact is, while Democrats are preaching fairness and equity among voters, in Congress they have seized control through a scheme that has taken over the legislative branch of the Federal government, and done so in a manner that permanently denies all of us the full value of our vote.
"How this has been done has, until now, never been explained. At first glance this observation seems to be another unfounded conspiracy, but no observation on how government has managed to steal the value of our vote can be more solidly founded on the principles of our republican form of government and the realities of the national budget.
"In order to understand how this vote theft has been perpetrated it’s necessary to briefly review the nature of the American form of national government. " . . .

TV Client Sues Celebrity Attorney Gloria Allred for Fraud, Legal Malpractice

LawNewz


A former client of Gloria Allred has filed a lawsuit against the celebrity attorney for legal malpractice and fraud, claiming she negligently represented him during a case. Kyle Hunter, a local television weatherman, hired Allred to go after CBS for allegedly discriminating against him in favor of younger, attractive female meteorologists. His lawsuit filed on Tuesday contends Allred botched his legal case, and didn’t properly notify him that she was working with CBS to produce a legal drama inspired by her life — an obvious conflict of interest, he claims.

“As Allred negotiated in secret a TV deal for herself with CBS during the Hunter lawsuit, the malpractice in her handling of the case led to a near- seven-figure legal bill for Hunter, a sunk suit against CBS, and an impaired reputation for Hunter,” the lawsuit, which was filed in Los Angeles County Superior County, reads." . . .

John Kelly, Kamala Harris Snap at Each Other During Exchange on Sanctuary Cities

Free Beacon  "Secretary of Homeland Security John Kelly and Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) snapped at each other repeatedly Tuesday during an exchange about the Trump administration's sanctuary city policy.
Harris cut Kelly off to say the administration was forcing cities into a "Hobbesian choice" between complying with federal law or forfeiting DHS counterterrorism funds, according to the NTK Network."Had you not cut me off, I would have said the same thing you just said. Probably not as eloquently, but I would have said the same thing you just said," Kelly said.Later, Kelly said he told city officials that whatever they do within the law, "we're willing to work with them. So—""So are you aware that there's local law enforcement—" Harris started."Could you at least let me finish once, before you interrupt me?" Kelly said."Sir, with all due respect," Harris responded."With all due respect, senator," Kelly said.Harris asked Kelly if the administration was advising local enforcement leaders that they could overlook government requests on detainment to avoid liability."We talk to them about whatever they're comfortable with, whatever they think they can do within interpretation of their local attorneys general, as an example, or local lawyers—" Kelly said.Harris interrupted again, and Kelly became irritated."



Seth Meyers’ Ivanka Trump Joke Falls Flat At Awards Show

Youngcons  "For some reason, comedians in liberal enclaves are convinced that jokes about Trump are edgy and original.
"In reality, it’s the lamest and most boring comedy you can possibly put forward.
"A true comedian takes risks. They don’t do what they think everyone in the room will like.
"You want to actually stir things up? Make a joke defending Christians. Not bashing them.
"Make a joke about irrational Trump haters instead of bashing Trump like everyone else does.
"Norm MacDonald, arguably the greatest stand-up comedian of all time, touched on that issue in a recent interview." . . .
From the Daily Caller: Seth Myers Goes After Trump And Ivanka At Fashion Awards Show
“Abercrombie & Fitch has announced it’s putting itself up for sale,” Myers told the crowd. “Meanwhile, thanks to Donald Trump, the United States has become a Banana Republic.”“It’s harder than ever to separate fashion from politics,” he added. “First Lady Melania Trump made headlines recently after she decided not to wear a head cover when visiting Saudi Arabia. Which is especially shocking cause her husband wears a head covering literally everywhere.”
The left went bonkers apparently over this photo of Ivanka sitting behind the president's Resolute desk:

"Ivanka Trump posted a photo on Monday sitting behind the Resolute desk in the Oval Office and female journalists lost their minds on Twitter."

Leaker To Iranian Foreign Minister: “We Stand With You”  "Do social media and security clearances go together? Er … maybe not, especially if the person who holds the clearance ever has to show up in court. Following up on an article in the Daily Beast about Reality Sara Winner, the woman arrested by the FBI for transmitting Top Secret information to The Intercept, Twitchy discovered that the would-be whistleblower has a rather odd set of loyalties. Almost exactly four months ago, Winner sent a message of solidarity to Iranian foreign minister Javad Zarif:

Overnight Open Thread: WWII Paratroopers Recreate Historic Photo On 73rd Anniversary Of D-Day…

Victor Davis Hanson  . . . "How do our elites square the circle of identity politics and big money? The notion that reparatory admissions and hiring are based on race and gender presupposes that past endemic bias has led to oppression that in turn had hit hard the livelihoods of the Other. But what happens when after a half-century of affirmative action, many who receive preferences are richer than those whom they accuse of white privilege?
. . . 
"Obama, who lectured the country that wealthy people did not build their own businesses, that everyone should realize when they had made enough money, and that it was not the time for profiting, now earns $400,000 from Wall Street interests for short speeches on his past successes — on the heels of raking in a reported $60 million for a his-and-hers book deal. How does the tire saleswoman in Grand Rapids or the welder in Tennessee square that? Americans have no problem with Obama’s post-presidential lucrative entrepreneurialism, but they do mind that he is never subject to the ramifications of his own loud redistributionist ideology." . . .

No, the Problem in London Is Not ‘Islamist Extremism’

Islamists want to impose sharia law on the West — which means all Islamists are ‘extremists.’
Andrew C. McCarthy  "The Western schizophrenia about radical Islam is on full display in Britain, in the aftermath of the latest jihadist atrocity, the third in just the past three months. 

"Three terrorists rammed a van into a crowd on London Bridge and then went on a stabbing rampage, brutally assaulting pedestrians while braying that each blow was struck “for Allah.” A duly outraged Theresa May donned her prime-minister hat to announce that her government is “leading international efforts to take on and defeat the ideology of Islamist extremism around the world.” She also slipped on her amateur-imam cap, adjusted her rose-tinted glasses, and proclaimed that 
“Islamist extremism” is an ideology that preaches hatred, sows division and promotes sectarianism. It is an ideology that claims our Western values of freedom, democracy, and human rights are incompatible with the religion of Islam. 
"And what right-thinking Western politico’s post-mass-murder speech would be complete without May’s insistence that this ideology is — all together now! — “a perversion of Islam and a perversion of the truth.” Sigh."   Read more

Jihadist terrorists do not kill wantonly. They kill for a purpose: namely, to impose sharia.

I am intolerant


The Last English Prince   "I am intolerant of a political gestalt which demands the blood of the innocent.
"I am intolerant of a religious edict which promotes targeted child abuse against little girls, and is practiced on Western soil.
"I am intolerant of a way of life which does not measure all men equally.
"I am intolerant of an overlay of a flawed system of governance which seeks para-parliamentary channels in the Western hemisphere.
"I am intolerant of demands for prayer on time (one of the most important Hadith) which bring lawsuits against employers and public school systems.
"I am intolerant of demands for public accommodation for what should be private religious rites. Your conviction requires your sacrifice, not my own sacrifice to your god.
"I am intolerant of a system of governance which, when in full force, inflicts persecution and oppression on minorities (i.e. all who are not Muslims).
"I am intolerant against a court system which considers a woman’s testimony to be half that of a man in court, and demands four witnesses to verify a sexual assault.
"I am intolerant of political will which does not allow women to drive, leave the home without the presence of a male relative, and requires women to walk around in portable tents to hide their natural beauty.
"I am intolerant of the hidden crime of sodomy against little boys because of pent-up lust of the Arab male.
"I am intolerant of non-existent rape statistics because a woman who is raped is a woman who deserved it.
"I am intolerant of those who come to the West with the sole intent of not loving us but continuing to hate us and our way of life.
"I am intolerant of a doctrine which has two major tenets: Non-assimilation and expansionism.
"I am intolerant of those who want to come to the West for a better life. And yet they do not understand that perhaps their generations will have to sacrifice just like our generations sacrificed to attain prosperity. Prosperity comes with hard work, not eternal entitlements.
"I am intolerant of extending a hand and having it bitten.

"But perhaps my highest level of contempt today is reserved for British Prime Minister Theresa May.  In the aftermath of three attacks in less than three months she declares these attacks a perversion of Islam."  Read more...
