How many spend quality time around the toddler set, you know those cutie patooties who are learning to speak (understanding more than most realize), yet often come out with pearls of wisdom? You might rightfully wonder: What do toddlers have to say, they can hardly string a full sentence together? Well, sometimes “out of the mouth of babes” really strikes a deep chord, and this is one such point in time.
So while “negotiating” with a nearest and dearest from the very same toddler set, was caught dumbstruck when the little one exhorted to a (seemingly reasonable) request with: “blah, blah, blah!” In effect, even while still learning to talk, he understood that the way to shut down the conversation was to make it known – from the get go – that he doesn’t accept said terms of the discussion and wasn’t having any more of it . He turned his back and toddled away! Surely others have had similar experiences, but what does this personal anecdote have to do with the “price of tea in China”? Everything.
In the west’s fruitless, toothless and insane quest to “tame” the Islamic beast, they have come up with nothing more than (less than even temporary) ploys to bribe Muslims to behave in a civilized manner. However, Allah’s adherents are having none of it, and in word and deed they are giving the west the “blah, blah, blah” treatment on behalf of their Ummah – “The Arabic word umma , derived from umm (‘mother’), is a term used in Islam to denote the worldwide community of the faithful. In the twentieth century, the term was sometimes used by Arabs to mean “nation” in a political sense, both in global terms (the pan-Arab umma) and local terms (a specific nation).”
To our collective western horror a preponderance in leadership positions, ranging from political, media, cultural, legal and academic circles, haven’t a clue how to deal with their “intransigence”.Therefore, they must sit at Prof Eidelberg’s knees (described herein – https://adinakutnicki.com/about/) and learn their lessons well, even if they are too old to attend formal schooling. The west can no longer tolerate their blindness and fecklessness.
‘A Muslim for Sale?’

Thomas R. Pickering is back. Spells trouble.
Pickering, former U.S. undersecretary of state for political affairs, is considered by many the ultimate American career diplomat. That’s double trouble. He has held ambassadorial posts in Russia, the U.N., and Israel. He is still being called upon by the administration to lead important investigations, including one into the killing last fall of the American ambassador to Libya—the right choice for a cover-up of Obama’s post-American State Department.
Pickering, we hear, is now heading a panel of former senior U.S. officials and outside “experts” called “The Iran Project.” The creature is urging President Obama to drop sanctions and covert action against Iran, and instead negotiate more intensively with Tehran. Surprised?
Not if you’ve heard former U.S. Ambassador John Bolton on FOX News, or better, read his book Surrender is Not an Option (2007), where he anticipated Obama’s powder puff policy toward Iran. Bolton is not an academic lapdog diplomat ala Pickering. He has taken on the State Department: said it’s dominated by moral relativists. Reminds me of 1933, when Ivy League academics urged the Roosevelt Administration to recognize the Soviet Union despite its blatant commitment to America’s destruction.
Remember Soviet dictator Khrushchev’ boast “We’ll bury you!” It’s reverberating in Iran, whose dictator gleefully boats “Death to America!”
American diplomats tainted by the university-bred doctrine of moral relativism would be out of a job if they took such threats seriously. Indeed, if the State Department was not so tainted by what Bolton calls “moral equivalence,” State would not be so liberal granting the likes of the Boston Marathon Bombers free rides in America. Nothing new about State’s ethical neutrality.
The same most highly educated department of American government advocated diplomatic relations with Iraq, a military despotism headed by the butcher of Baghdad, Saddam Hussein. Juxtapose the Iraqi study group of 2006. Included was the Polish-born Harvard professor Zbigniew Brzezinski. Brzezinski, reputedly an anti-Semite, served as Billy Carter’s National Security adviser. But get this. His book Political Power US-USSR reveals him as a moral relativist. He advocated a non-ideological foreign policy even toward the Soviet Union!
“Accommodation” with the country of the Gulag concentration camps was both the advice of his books and the policy of the humanistic Carter Administration. Unsurprisingly, Brzezinski, an internationalist, had the ear of the “cosmopolitan” Barack Obama in 2008. Brzezinski harbors the crypto-Marxist dogma that all ideological conflicts are irrational, that to risk death and destruction in the name of doctrines having no absolute or universal validity is absurd. This dogma underlies the concept of “conflict resolution” which permeates political science departments even to the extent to having a home in the Begin-Sadat Center at Bar-Ilan University. It is remarkable how democracies dignify despots.
Be that as it may, Obama, like Brzezinski, has been in bed with Jew-haters and Islamophiles for years. Suffice it to mention Louis Farrakhan and Reverend Jeremiah Wright. Obama attended Wright’s church for 20 years, despite the pastor’s brazen anti-Americanism. No wonder: Obama is the only American presidential candidate to have been endorsed by Hamas, Israel’s mortal enemy! And this is not all.
Recall Daniel Kurtzer, U.S. ambassador to Israel from 2001 to 2005. Kurtzer received his Ph.D. from Columbia University, at which Barack Obama was a student. Like many universities, Columbia was a seedbed of moral relativism. It was also a venue for the “New Left.”
Kurtzer not only advocated a Palestinian state with eastern Jerusalem as its capital. He advocated a contiguous Palestinian state connected with Gaza, the effect of which would split Israel in two. How remarkable! Kurtzer studied at Yeshiva University, where I once served as a visiting professor. I was astonished by the moral relativism free-floating and virtually unnoticed at that reputedly orthodox religious institution. So I was not astonished by Kurtzer’s orthodox religious reputation. Relativism, the mental disorder of democracy’s old-age, emasculates academics, many of whom enter government and become useful idiots. Would it be inappropriate to say that a member of that madding crowd now occupies the Oval Office?
Does its occupant really believe that Pickering can pull a rabbit out of Iran? Or, has he been afflicted by a syndrome common to capitalists and socialists alike, that Muslims can be bought?

In particular, several commentaries shore up the above’s urgency and efficacy, and none more than ‘Islam & Blood’ (https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/07/13/islam-blood-a-groundbreaking-policy-paper-contained-herein-the-world-stands-on-a-precipice-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki-109/), the underlying blood pact which fuels their jihad. As such Islamic jihad (stealth or frontal) is immutable, immovable, hence, non-negotiable. Thereby, a similarly “take it or leave it” western response must be instituted post haste.
YET the leader of the free world is wedded to jaw-jaw notions for “conflict resolution” (the Islamist-in-Chief must post haste confab with the ever patient Prof for a primer on, ‘Using Conflict-Resolution Tools In Arab-Israel Conflict’ – http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/11897#.UYOxBbX-Fn0) and millions will die on its altar. Israel, if it chooses survival over “going along to get along”, must disconnect its foreign policy effectively from Washington’s, at least until Iran is dealt with.
The readers realize by now that the Pyromaniac-in-Chief has a goal: to buy the mullah’s time to gain the bomb (blatherings aside…as Barack HUSSEIN Obama opines, “US Could Prevent Nuclear Iran” – http://www.france24.com/en/20130314-obama-says-us-could-prevent-iran-nuclear-bomb…yet in a recent Mid East arms deal he left out the MOST important weapon of all for Israel to go it alone – the largest bunker buster bombs required – http://flashtrafficblog.wordpress.com/2013/04/24/u-s-israel-sign-new-arms-deal-but-obama-team-refuses-to-sell-bunker-buster-bombs-what-message-does-that-send-to-iran/) and the reasons are multi-faceted. In reality, they will hardly matter when bodies start exploding, both in Israel and America.
Thus, is “blah, blah, blah” that off the mark, especially when describing where the west is at, in juxtaposition to reality on the ground?

Blah, blah ,blah. The “cutie Patooties” are so wise. The machine just ate my note. So BO is calling in all the snakes to keep him safe and promoting them, because they have been so very helpful to their country! The problem with State Department tassle-toed twits is that many were educated in ivory towers and have no common sense. We were in towers also, but pitiful pc had not taken over. Now we have nothing to do with them. Bless you Adina. You’re on fire. Keep burning and keeping us sane.
John Bolton is a diplomatic pit bull, if that’s not an oxymoron. Pickering is a whitewasher and a political lapdog and therefore the perfect man for the Iran Project as BHO sees it. I would say current US policy and reality are complete strangers, if not for the belief I have that BHO has a stealth mission to destroy the US and Israel. In that light, his doings make perfect sense.
