WOE To All “Bitter Clingers”: Yes, They’re Coming To CONFISCATE Your Guns! Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

Getting caught with ones pants down – skirts alike – is surely an embarrassing moment, but it can be enlightening for the onlookers, voyeurism beside the point. Such is the case with hot button issues like gun confiscation, aka gun control. 

As patriots bear witness to leftists going postal, it behooves those who cherish liberty and freedom to take their threats to heart, even when seemingly irrational – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/01/03/leftists-go-postal-over-gun-control-threatening-to-kill-legal-gun-owners-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/They are deadly serious.

In fact, the left has been gunning for the Second Amendment for decades, and has no intent of letting up, especially with the Radical-in-Chief shielding their backs. But it is also the case, a weakened POTUS is less likely to own the political capital required to get the job done, if patriots keep up all due pressure – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/15/regime-gone-wild-obama-inc-repeatedly-caught-with-their-pants-down-where-is-this-leading-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/. Nevertheless, stay alert to the signs, so you don’t get caught with YOUR pants down!

In the main, their quest is endless, even if abusing the kiddies is the primary way forward. For if this is not the case, then how could the following take place? – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/03/16/gun-control-madness-its-after-shocks-directly-related-to-students-gun-stores-too-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/

Most ominously, when the biggest criminal gang in the world, the UN, is the POTUS’s “go” to address, then Americans (westerners alike) have no choice but to remain hyper-vigilant – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/03/28/obama-crew-march-in-lock-step-with-un-thugs-chiefly-to-disarm-americans-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/. Washington’s current leadership are evil incarnate, as they ignore the purview of Congress in matters requiring its assent – http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/kerry-arms-treaty/2013/06/03/id/507825?s=al&promo_code=13B4C-1…thus, hewing to UN dictates!

So while the following is not good news, it can be utilized to turn the electoral screws on all those seeking to gut the Constitutional right to bear arms. A silver “bullet” in appropriate hands.

‘Ooops… Hot mic reveals lawmakers intent to confiscate guns’

NJ3

Please comment on this article at Canada Free Press

By Douglas J. Hagmann

14 May 2013: Every American gun owner, regardless of the state in which you live, is presently or will be the target of gun confiscation. A state-by-state framework of confiscation is being erected in front of us all to strip us of our rights under the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Proof of this nefarious intent of disarming citizens was serendipitously caught by a “hot” microphone at the conclusion of the May 9, 2013 meeting of the New Jersey State Legislature.

At the conclusion of the New Jersey Senate Budget & Appropriations Committee meeting last Thursday, an open microphone caught three state senators, identified by voice as Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg, Assistant Majority Leader Sandra Cunningham, Senate Majority Whip Linda Greenstein, and at least one staff member talking candidly about their intent to confiscate all guns from the people they serve. It should be noted that Senator Loretta Weinberg is the chief proponent of the anti-gun legislation being moved through the New Jersey State Senate.

For anyone doubting the bitter contempt these legislators hold for gun owners and pro-Constitutionalists, a YouTube video that captured the “open microphone moment” is available for review here.Although some of the candid conversation is a bit difficult to discern due to the ambient noise, their message is clear. “We need[ed] a bill that was going to confiscate, confiscate, confiscate,”stated one high ranking senate member. “They don’t care about the bad guys.  All they want to do is have their ‘little guns’ and do whatever they want with them,” added another in an obviously demeaning manner. Another conceded that gun owners do, in fact, want to keep guns out of the hands of criminals, but added that “they don’t have any regulations to do it.” Oh really?

During the second hour of The Hagmann & Hagmann Report that aired last night, we interviewed the highly credentialed Scott Bach, Esq., Executive Director of the Association of the New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs who explained the draconian laws being written and passed in the State of New Jersey. “Clearly, this is about nothing less than disarming the American public, and the current battleground is in New Jersey,”  stated Mr. Bach. “You might not be experiencing it in your state… yet, but you will. It’s just a matter of time.”

We must do everything we can to preserve, protect and defend our Second Amendment rights, or we will lose much more. Regardless of where you live, the fight is coming to you, if it has not yet arrived. We must be proactive, and yes, we can make our voices heard to counter the utter contempt of these lawmakers regardless of your state of residence – while we still have the chance. Let’s hold these opponents to our constitutional rights accountable for their words and actions.

The time is now, and the fight has been left to us. Make your views known and your voice heard by contacting the NJ Senate Majority Office by phone (609-847-3700) and/or fax (609-633-7254). Do it before it disappears as an option.

Chillingly, did you know that the Radical-in-Chief has a “litmus test” for his military commanders?

‘OBAMA REPORTED TO BE DISMISSING MILITARY LEADERS WHO WILL NOT FIRE ON CIVILIANS IF ORDERED’

Posted 01.26.13 by Greg Campbell, TPNN Contributor

Noble Peace Prize nominee and humanitarian Dr. Jim Garrow is not known for outrageous accusations. Dedicated to his humanitarian work, he has not ventured into the spotlight for a moment other than to write a book about the trouble of China’s one-child policy. That has changed as he has recently divulged information he says he received from a former senior military leader in the Obama Administration.

Garrow announced,

“I have just been informed by a former senior military leader that Obama is using a new ‘litmus test’ in determining who will stay and who must go in his military leaders. Get ready to explode folks. ‘The new litmus test of leadership in the military is if they will fire on US citizens or not.’ Those who will not are being removed.”

Dr. Jim Garrow has spent the last 16 years rescuing baby girls from the harsh realities and near-certain death of China’s one-child-per-couple rule. From his efforts to raise awareness of the problem and his willingness to facilitate the adoption of these infants, it is estimated that he has saved 40,000 babies and has been considered for a Nobel Peace Prize. While he has not released who his source is, Garrow has maintained a pretty low profile and seems to not be associated with any fringe ideologies.

It is a bold accusation, but one that fits into a bigger picture. As America becomes, arguably, more and more polarized, states have discussed secession and state and county officials all across the country have publicly claimed that they will refuse to enforce executive orders that violate the Second Amendment.

Whether one agrees that America should be so polarized or not, the fact remains that this revelation comes at a time when America is deeply divided on a variety of issues ranging from gun rights to the basic question of how to solve any one of our fiscal crises. With such deep divides, the issue of secession has been discussed and people all across the country have expressed worry at a looming federal presence.

Added to the volatile mix of ideologies is the recent executive orders that were aimed at enacting gun control measures and the near-constant threat of outright bans on many firearms. Such speculation has fueled dissent and discussion amongst mainstream Americans as to how far the government ought to be allowed to go.

The Washington Free Beacon recently reported that the head of Central Command, Marine Corps Gen. James Mattis is being dismissed by President Obama and will leave his post in March. While unwilling to divulge the source, Garrow stated, “The man who told me this is one of America’s foremost military heroes.”

If what Garrow says is true, than this is sure to rouse anger and distrust from conservatives across the country who have accused the president of exceeding his authority on numerous occasions and have voiced concern over sweeping policies that are of dubious legalities. If Obama is preparing to stock his inner-circle with only those that will follow his orders beyond what should rightfully be expected from soldiers who have sworn to protect this nation, than America may see a turbulent four years.

The true irony of Obama’s presidency is that while reports such as the aforementioned have surfaced and as drone attacks continue across the globe and families mourn the loved ones lost as a result of the Justice Department’s flood of weapons to Mexican cartels, President Obama actually received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009.

And those who dismiss the notion that martial law couldn’t happen in the streets of America, especially when a “crisis” presents itself, it is already a done deal – http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2013/05/pentagon-unilaterally-grants-itself-authority-over-civil-disturbances-2648202.html?utm_medium=verticalresponse&utm_campaign=&utm_content=beforeit39snews-verticalresponse&utm_source=direct-b4in.info&utm_term=http%3A%2F%2Fb4in.info%2Fc4V2. Moreover, it was previously posited at this blog – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/03/23/signs-of-civil-war-could-lead-to-martial-law-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

So “bitter clingers”, yes, cling to your guns like a life raft. Live free or die. It’s that stark. That clear. Deadly serious.

IRS Enforcement Agents To Be Armed With SHOTGUNS…As Law Abiding Citizens Are Disarmed! Where Is This Headed? Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

As Obama Inc. spins out of control, targeting the right of law abiding citizens to bear arms, one can only shiver at the thought of additional firepower in the hands of their enforcement goons from the IRS, rather than confiscating their weapons altogether.

And it is beyond any doubt at all that disarming the public IS their main goal in order to elevate Shariah Law as the “law of the land” (https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/06/02/holders-doj-as-if-on-cue-bellies-up-to-invoke-islamic-blasphemy-laws-in-the-usa-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/), however surreptitiously/incrementally it comes to pass. An armed populace cannot be counted on to accept the abrogation of the authentic law of the land, the Constitution.

Consider the evidence: “DHS insider” takes no prisoners, as he reveals what is behind gun control, and Rep Louie Gohmert (in tandem with courageous and highly vocal – anti-Shariah infiltration – Rep Michele Bachmann…who “coincidentally” will no longer be running for re-election…hmm…http://www.mediaite.com/online/misson-accomplished-now-michele-bachmanns-democratic-opponent-has-dropped-out-of-the-2014-race/…as if her opponent, Jim Graves, wasn’t a set-up from the get go…but never mind) expounds upon the motivation to elevate Shariah Law in place of the Constitution –  https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/03/02/explosive-dhs-insider-reveals-congressman-louie-gohmert-too-disarming-americans-gun-control-empowers-the-redgreen-alliancesharia-law-its-beneficiary-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/. Absolutely.

‘IRS AGENTS CARRYING SHOTGUNS NOT A BIG DEAL?’

Critics were mocked as ‘right-wing fear-mongers’

Published: May 31, 2013

irs-shotguns

The issue of Internal Revenue Service agents carrying weapons may warrant further scrutiny amid the nationwide distrust of the agency for targeting conservative organizations.

The IRS is also the chief enforcer of Obamacare requirements.

In 2010, the Federal Business Opportunities website posted an IRS request for a quote on the price of shotguns for the agency’s Criminal Investigation Division.

The site sought a quote for 60 Remington Model 870 Police 12-gauge pump-action shotguns, the only weapons authorized for IRS duty.

The IRS Criminal Division includes roughly 2,700 special agents who are required to carry a firearm.

According to the basic qualifications for a position as an IRS special agent for the criminal division, “applicants must carry and use a firearm.”

In October 2012, J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration, released a report charging IRS agents need more thorough firearms training and must better report accidental firings of their guns.

“Special agents not properly trained in the use of firearms could endanger the public, as well as their fellow special agents, and expose the IRS to potential litigation over injuries or damages,” George said at the time.

George said IRS agents accidentally fired their weapons 11 times during fiscal years 2009 through fiscal 2011.

‘Right wing’ fear mongering?

When the IRS publicly sought the 60 shotguns in 2010, the progressive activist group Media Matters for America attacked what it labeled the “right-wing blogosphere” for “baselessly fear monger[ing]” over the IRS weapons issue.

Media Matters blasted the popular Drudge Report for its Feb. 3, 2010, headline “The IRS is buying shotguns!”

American Thinker blogger Ralph Alter said of the IRS weapons request: “It looks like the IRS under the Obama administration is getting serious about improving its ability to collect taxes and enforce the tax codes.”

Radio host Tammy Bruce was also spotlighted by Media Matters after she posted on her blog the IRS request for a quote on weapons and commented: “Nothing warms me up in the morning like the idea that the IRS is preparing a swat team equipped with pump-action shotguns. I guess [Obama] thinks they’re gonna have to start shooting at us to squeeze what we have left out of us?” She concluded: “Give us your money or we’ll shoot!”

Mark Levin gets a visit

Earlier this month, national radio host Mark Levin revealed on his show that he received a visit from armed Treasury Department agents after penning a March 2012 letter complaining the IRS was targeting tea party organizations.

Levin noted the two Treasury officials who visited him were “armed” and carrying weapons by claiming “we’re law enforcement.”

Earlier this month, Josh Margolin of ABC News reported that journalists touring the IRS offices in Cincinnati were “escorted” by an armed federal officer.

“The fact is the trust in the IRS is gone,” Rep. Tom Graves, R-Ga, said at a speech yesterday. “The American people have lost trust in this organization and rightfully so.”

ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT THE INCREASING USE OF FIREARMS BY NON-MILITARY GOVERNMENT PERSONNEL?

http://www.wnd.com/2013/05/irs-agents-carrying-shotguns-not-a-big-deal/#7TqYc0MZFahBIoQi.99

It is no accident that so many scandals are erupting, as their true plans amass to the surface. YET despite it all, the regime has become even more emboldened. EVER more brazen, the IRS ignores the Senate’s deadline for corroborating documentation, behaving as a law unto themselves – http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/05/31/Exclusive-IRS-Ignores-Senate-Deadline-to-Answer-Questions-About-Scandal. So, a two-fold question must be asked and answered with all due deliberation: Is this an entity which has gone completely rogue, and if so, does anyone – in their right mind – trust their agents with any weaponry, least of all shotguns? 

Be very wary. Indeed, this is as scary as it gets.

UPDATE: As to the claim that it was “rogue” elements in Cincinnatti…liars, liars, pants/skirts on fire –  http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/Issa-IRS-Carney/2013/06/02/id/507527?s=al&promo_code=13B1B…and there is no legal defense, “we were just following orders”!

Holder’s DOJ, As If On Cue, Bellies Up To Invoke Islamic “Blasphemy” Laws In The USA!…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

HOT on the heels of Friday’s commentary, ‘Freedom of Speech: Its Evisceration of All Meaning, Its Collision Course With Moral Relativism’ – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/31/freedom-of-speech-its-evisceration-of-all-meaning-its-collision-course-with-moral-relativismhistoricism-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/…along comes a major Exhibit attesting to its veracity, and a bonafide test case as well. Oh, how fast the (Constitutional) dominoes fall. Again, this site lays no claim to soothsayer status. None at all.

Regardless, one must first internalize what is animating DOJ, as they effectively mandate the institution of Blasphemy Laws within America’s shores; laws which are inherent within Islam’s Sharia Law and diametrically opposed to Constitutional Law! Blasphemy Laws essence can be found within Andrew G. Bostom’s trenchant analysis at American Thinker –http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2013/03/ten_key_points_on_islamic_blasphemy_law.html. Study its contents well, as if your freedoms depend on doing so…and those of us who are familiar (as this blogger is, for over a decade) with this subject are equipped to see from there to here. Knowledge IS power. Fundamental at its root. 

This is precisely why the subject registers high on the scale of exploratory topics herein, commensurate with the following exhibits:

Exhibit One:  Back in July 2012, a mere month after this blog’s inception, it became incumbent to alert the readership: yes, the Radical/Islamist-in-Chief is Allah-bent on criminalizing any criticism of Islam – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/07/28/alert-radical-in-chief-obama-tasks-illegally-bent-ag-holder-to-criminalize-islamic-speech-via-thuggish-un-dictates-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/ …and their game plan is coming to fruition.

Exhibit Number Two: And proof of the above lies within Barack HUSSEIN Obama’s installation of Shariah Law all over the Arab/Muslim world – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/12/26/the-leader-of-the-free-world-helps-install-shariah-law-all-over-the-mid-east-beyond-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/in anticipation of the super power of the world becoming Shariah-compliant under his “guiding” hands.

Exhibit Number Three: Straight onto the chopping block are the First Amendment rights of American citizens, as criticizing ! Islam becomes a “crime” –  https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/12/22/first-amendment-rights-on-the-chopping-block-via-criminalizing-criticism-of-islam-addendum-to-shariah-law-its-silencing-of-all-dissent-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/Holy Moses.

Exhibit Number Four: The end game is to strip away free speech, all in order to submit Americans (and the rest of the west will fall into line) to Sharia’s Blasphemy Laws –https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/12/15/shariah-law-its-silencing-of-all-dissent-its-encroachment-into-the-entire-west-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

Exhibit Number Five: Is it any wonder that Holder’s DOJ imposed a MEGA mosque upon a community, even though citizens objected to its over the top plans within their community? – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/12/31/a-radical-racialist-islamist-apologist-doj-imposes-a-mega-mosque-on-a-u-s-community-addendum-to-radical-in-chief-tasks-illegally-bent-ag-holder-to-criminalize-islamic-speech-commentary-by-adin/. It shouldn’t be.

Exhibit Number Six:  It is rightful to posit: Why is Congress giving “inquiring minds” the finger re Al-Jazeera, the Muslim Brotherhood’s tv front arm, as it forces its way into American airwaves, even as Shariah Law is its main objective? https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/02/25/congress-gives-inquiring-minds-the-finger-dont-dare-ask-questions-about-al-jazeera-the-tv-arm-of-the-brotherhood-mafias-propaganda-arsenal-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

‘DOJ: SLAM MUSLIMS ON FACEBOOK, FACE FEDS’ – June 1, 2012

Social media postings that ‘violate civil rights’ subject to federal jurisdiction

Bloggers beware. And those who use email, too. And those on Facebook. And Twitter. And anyone else using social media: Diss a Muslim and the Department of Justice will be on your case with the full weight of federal law.

The Obama administration, which is launching a series of Muslim Outreach Summits so that Islamists can tell federal officials how they better can serve that community, says it also is holding educational outreaches to let people know that Internet postings that violate civil rights are subject to federal prosecution.

Bill Killian, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Tennessee, is scheduled to appear at an event sponsored by the American Muslim Advisory Council of Tennessee next week, and will “provide input on how civil rights can be violated by those who post inflammatory documents targeted at Muslims on social media,” according to a report in the Tullahoma News in Tennessee.

“This is an educational effort with civil rights laws as they play into freedom of religion and exercising freedom of religion,” he said. “This is also to inform the public what federal laws are in effect and what the consequences are.”

He said everyone needs to understand that Internet postings that violate civil rights are subject to federal jurisdiction.

After all, he said, while some Muslims may blow up buildings, hijack airliners and kill thousands, there are terrorists of other religions, too.

“[Oklahoma City bombers] Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were both Christians as was the guy who shot up the Sikh temple [in Wisconsin],” Killian claimed.

The federal strategy immediately made the “Corruption Chronicles” feature assembled by officials at Judicial Watch, the corruption-fighting activists in Washington.

“In its latest effort to protect followers of Islam in the U.S. the Obama Justice Department warns against using social media to spread information considered inflammatory against Muslims, threatening that it could constitute a violation of civil rights,” the organization said.

Judicial Watch noted that the Obama administration already has reached out to personally reassure Muslims that the DOJ is protecting them. In that unprecedented move, Attorney General Eric Holder assured a San Francisco-based group called Muslim Advocates, which urges members not to cooperate with federal investigations, that he is grateful to have Muslims with which to partner.

The Obama administration also has hired a special Homeland Security adviser, Mohamed Elibiary, who openly supports an Islamist theologian who condemns U.S. prosecutions of terrorists, Judicial Watch said.

And the president has ordered the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to focus on Muslim diplomacy and officials with Homeland Security covertly have met with extremist Arab, Muslim and Sikh groups to talk about national security matters.

The State Department lent its weight by sending anti-America imam Feisal Abdul Rauf on a trip to the Middle East for outreach to Muslims.

Explained Judicial Watch, “Over the years, the Obama administration has embarked on a fervent crusade to befriend Muslims by creating a variety of outreach programs at a number of key federal agencies.”

Tullahoma News said Killian wants to let people know about Muslim culture and civil rights laws.

“We want to inform everybody about what the law is, but more importantly, we want to provide what the law means to Muslims, Hindus and every other religion in the country.

“It’s why we came here in the first place,” he continued. “In England, they were using Christianity to further their power in government. That’s why the First Amendment is there.”

WND had reported just a day earlier on the “Muslim Outreach Summits.”

WND initially discovered documents referring to the Muslim summits while examining a U.S. Department of Education procurement of data-gathering and report-writing services.

The services are specific to information being assembled by the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, or WHIAAPI, which Obama created via executive order in 2009.

Upon closer inspection, however, WND learned that the Education Department explicitly will direct the selected contractor to chronicle findings and recommendations gleaned from the Muslim Outreach Summits.

The White House views this year’s venues as an extension of a previous outreach to “new immigrants and refugees – some of the most underserved in the AAPI community,” according to a document titled “WHIAAPI 2013 Faith-Based and Community Engagement.”

Complementing the prior effort will be the three “regional convenings,” tentatively scheduled June 15 in Chicago, June 22 in San Francisco and June 29 in New York City.

“These cities are main AAPI immigrant hubs and entry points for new immigrants/refugees,” according to a related document, “Questions Received from Vendors: Development and Preparation of the AAPI Annual Report to the President.”

“Each convening with [sic] include panel discussions/workshops with federal officials on key issues impacting the community and also an open-dialogue session to hear directly from the community about issues of concern.”

Sometime after the three Muslim Outreach Summits, the chosen contractor will develop and then present its summary report to the president and to newly appointed WHIAAPI commissioners.

The contracting action – the first of its kind since its inception in 2008 – will help lay the foundation for the initiative’s future work, the document says.

SOUND OFF ON DOJ THREAT OF PROSECUTION FOR INFLAMMATORY POSTS AGAINST MUSLIMS

  •  It’s about time these poor folks got some protection from American bigots
  •  That’s what DOJ is for – to protect the civil rights of ALL Americans
  •  The First Amendment doesn’t protect ‘fighting words,’ so the DOJ should prosecute these violations
  •  It’s a prudent way to prevent violent hate crimes against Muslims
  •  This is a great policy and should be enforced against anyone who posts inflammatory messages against ANY religion
  •  Only right-wingers, bigots and conspiracy theorists would worry about this policy
  •  It’s another reason to unplug from such governnment-monitored platforms
  •  Hmmm. Just when did we give up the First Amendment?
  •  The next step: DOJ also institutes Shariah law and criminalizes ‘blasphemy’ of Muhammad
  •  The DOJ would never enforce such a policy if the attacks were against Christians, Jews and other religious groups
  •  This kind of political correctness and ‘multi-culturalism’ will be the death of our great nation
  •  Does this mean they will arrest IRS agents for targeting Jewish groups, too?
  •  This is just more proof the U.S. has descended into tyranny
  •  This is a religion whose adherents behead people, chop off hands and ‘honor-kill’ women, and what I SAY is inflammatory?
  •  Go ahead and prosecute me: We’ll see if bogus civil rights violations trump the First Amendment
  •  Other

It goes without saying, a DOJ which is mired in mega scandals, relative to muzzling free speech of journalists, all the while giving cover to a regime gone wild, is in ZERO position to place the handcuffs on any American who asserts their Constitutional right to free speech, or so one would think  (https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/29/irsgate-obama-inc-about-to-be-blown-wide-open-its-revolving-irs-door-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/. But such a regime ignores all conventional wisdom, thus going for broke – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/15/regime-gone-wild-obama-inc-repeatedly-caught-with-their-pants-down-where-is-this-leading-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/).

Alas, their latest audacious move, found above, proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that turning the United States of America into Sharia Law-compliant is sacrosanct, and will forward march at ALL costs, as asserted herein – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/12/22/first-amendment-rights-on-the-chopping-block-via-criminalizing-criticism-of-islam-addendum-to-shariah-law-its-silencing-of-all-dissent-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

In this regard, this blog is warning, once again: your inherent freedoms are on the actual chopping block, slice by slice. And freedom of speech is the first, and most important, one they must grab. Its intrinsic import demands that all dissenters must be silenced and squashed. Are each of you ready to surrender? If not, what are you going to do to protect the hard fought, cherished liberties all Americans take for granted, as do most westerners? It’s your call. Your freedom is in the cross hairs.

Last but not least, a shout out to the oft mentioned “good ole’ boys”, you know, you guys (and gals) who are none too pleased to be pushed around by anyone’s radical dictates…perhaps a mass Facebook/social media campaign ought to “test” the waters. In this regard, let’s see if DOJ’s shock troops get their way. 

This blog is betting on a type of non-complacent American, one who intuits when their personal red lines of freedom are disappearing before their horrified eyes. 

U.S. Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff Fires A Decorated Commander: The Cost(s) of Teaching The Truth About Islamic Jihad …Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

Believe it or not, there are more important things than being right, no pun intended. Because when it comes to matters of existential import, as a clash between civilizations ensues, it is better to be proven wrong than not. Alas, such is hardly the case.

And so it has come to pass – once again – that the directional markers given by this blog’s Washington, DC contacts have exceeded expectations but not towards a positive trend, though decidedly on target. For when the following commentary was posted (Sept. 1, 2012), its import was derived from said sources, yet duly confirmed through DEBKAfile Intelligence’s relevant contacts – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/09/01/us-general-dempsey-strikes-again-dhimmifying-us-interests-re-iran-so-ordered-by-the-islamist-in-chief-addendum-to-tangible-lethal-military-related-results-from-redgreen-alliance-commentary/. Hence, it shouldn’t shock anyone that Gen Dempsey struck again; firing a highly valued Commander for teaching his charges about the true face of Islamic warfare in all its permutations. The surprise would be the opposite, in effect, if he promoted him!

‘Is Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff Aiding and Abetting the Enemy?’

by  on May 11, 2013 in BlogGeneral
Lt. Col. Matthew Dooley – a highly decorated combat commander – was fired from his position by General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, for teaching a course designed to educate soldiers about how to fight back against Islam and Jihad. In essence, Dooley was right on at least two very basic fronts. 1.) He was helping soldiers defend their nation against the biggest threat it faces and 2.) He was arming them with knowledge to protect themselves in the battle.As such, Dempsey is knowingly putting the men under his command in danger; this is a very serious offense that highlights everything a General should not be. He is supposed to put the safety of his men above himself and certainly above his own career.This incident epitomizes the serious trouble this country is in unless Obama and his thugs are impeached, tried, convicted, and removed from power. The Benghazi scandal highlights the dangers of our failed and foolish security policies. The administration’s failure to protect Americans there is a model Dempsey appears to have adopted in firing Dooley.Failure to secure and arm the compound in Benghazi is no different from failing to secure and arm the military itself with the tools necessary to identify and fight the enemy.Benghazi also presents a vital opportunity to possibly drive these people from political power. The big two-part question now is this: Does the GOP have the courage to follow through and will the media find some intellectual curiosity?On May 6th, former U.S. Congressman, Lt. Col. Allen West interviewed Lt. Dooley’s legal representative – Richard Thompson of the Thomas More Law Center – to discuss the case:So, instead of firing Dooley, shouldn’t Dempsey have perhaps read the words of the Muslim Brotherhood’s top cleric, Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, for example? Shouldn’t we let the words of Islam dictate what Dooley teaches against? Here is an excerpt from an article Walid wrote for World Net Daily in 2011:

Infiltrate and conquer is the new motto of Islam and not “condemn violence especially under Islamic mottos,” as Qaradawi stated.Qaradawi even takes offense when the West compartmentalizes Islam into “radical” and “moderate”:

“One of the reviled expressions used by secularists and modernists is the expression ‘political Islam,’ which is alien to our Islamic society without a doubt. … The reason for this application is a master plan by the enemies of Islam to fragment it into different divisions … they manufactured ‘Islams,’ plural, several different Islams, which they desire to accomplish. Sometimes they even divide Islam by regions: there is the Asian variety of Islam. Then we have the African Islam. And sometimes, according to the ages: There is the Prophet’s era of Islam, and Rashidi Islam, Umayyad Islam, Abbasid Islam, Ottoman Islam and modern Islam. And sometimes, according to race: There is Arab Islam, Indian Islam, Turkish Islam and the Islam of the Malaysian … and so and so forth. And sometimes, according to the doctrine: There is Sunni Islam and Shiite Islam. They even divide the Sunni into divisions and the Shia into divisions. They even added new divisions; there is revolutionary Islam, reactionary Islam, radical Islam, classical Islam, right-wing Islam, leftist Islam, orthodox Islam, modern Islam and, finally, political Islam, and spiritual Islam and theological Islam.”

Qaradawi admonishes the West and corrects this view: “We do not know why they invent such divisions that are rejected in Islam. The truth is that these divisions are all unacceptable in the eyes of a Muslim. There is only one Islam, which has no partners which recognizes no other; it is the first Islam, the Islam of the Quran and Sunnah.”

Perhaps it’s time that the West agrees with Qaradawi: Indeed it is one Islam – flexible Islam.

Gen. Dempsey isn’t just wrong; he’s choosing the wrong side in a war that has been declared on his own country. He’s choosing the side of an enemy the allied with Hitler’s Nazis in WWII – the Muslim Brotherhood – by helping it dictate what U.S. troops are taught and not taught.

If Dempsey’s response is that he was just following orders, such a defense has no standing in war, as theNuremberg trials demonstrated:

Other defendants used their testimony to emphasize that they were merely following orders–although the IMT disallowed defense of superior orders, the issue was raised anyway in the hope that it might affect sentencing.

At least one of Dempsey’s offenses is the violation of one very basic tenet of known rules of warfare – a rule he himself is well are aware of as a General. This violations is egregious and one day, Dempsey is likely to find the blood of countless Americans on his hands as a result, because he’s helping the enemy keep the military he’s in charge of, in the dark.

Sun Tzu, the ancient Chinese warrior whose Art of War dates back over three thousand years, said the following:

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.

If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.

If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.

Dempsey’s behavior is akin to a General who wants to prevent his troops from knowing the enemy while helping the enemy at the same time. There was a time in America when that would be considered the worst possible offense a General could commit.

If harm comes to our troops or our nation as a result of Dempsey’s actions and if he is ever held to account for it, we’d like to remind him that any defense which includes something about ‘just following orders’ will be disallowed.

http://shoebat.com/2013/05/11/is-chairman-of-joint-chiefs-of-staff-aiding-and-abetting-the-enemy/

In fact, a case can be made that Gen Dempsey’s posting rests upon his willingness to subordinate U.S. interests to Islamic ones, as ordered by the Commander-in-Chief. Yes, the military is subordinate to the political leadership, however, it is also the case that a historical parallel can be made re Nazi Germany. The assertion of Nazi commanders, that they were “just following orders”, was insufficient to shield them from culpability. In other words, illegal and immoral orders can never be followed, even if handed down from top political leadership. 

But if their claim should (audaciously) become that they just don’t know what Islamic warfare entails, well, perhaps the military higher ups are guilty of abject failure in due diligence. The following  strategic find (from 2003) was known to this American-Israeli, so what’s their excuse?

“The 39 Principles of Holy War”

By: Dave Gaubatz

Do Americans citizens (to include Law Enforcement) understand the 39 Principles of Holy War?

In 2003, an Israeli researcher (Col. Jonathan D. Halevi) found an Al-Qaeda terror manual while searching Islamic and Arabic Websites titled “The 39 Principles of Holy War”.

This very important discovery by Halevi was reported in the Israeli News Agency on 4 Sept. 2003.  One would opine every news organization in the free world would report on this find.  It would be further assumed all law enforcement departments in America would have a copy of the terror manual.  Why? Because the 39 Principles of Holy War not only give citizens clues to who may or may not be a terrorist, but they provide law enforcement officers a better tool when searching suspected terrorists homes or businesses.

Preparing and urging the mind for Jihad-Every Muslim must obey the call for Jihad against the infidels out of sheer belief and intention.  The 39 Principles are:

  1. Since desire to obtain martyrdom – Al Salem, basing his arguments on Sheik Abdallah Azzam (the spiritual leader of Osama Bin Laden, killed in Afghanistan in 1989), emphasizes the importance of the sincere endeavor in order to attain martyrdom from Allah. The believer can perform the commandment concerning the “preparation to the battle” (I’dad Al-‘oda) and gain a reward from Allah equivalent to the Saheed’s reward (72 virgins and secure a close place near the Divine presence in Heaven) even though he may die from natural causes.
  2. Taking part in the Jihad – Every Muslim has to take an active role in holy war against the infidels, prepared to self sacrifice for the sake of Allah. Participation in Jihad is the most distinguished action in the eyes of Allah.
  3. Financing Jihad – Muslims can take part in the Jihad by making donations dedicated to the Jihad and the Mujahideen. The donation’s value is determined by its quality and destination and not by the sum total which is donated.
  4. Supplying the fighter’s needs – A believer who is unable to take part in the Jihad (for instance women and handicapped) can perform his duty by supplying the Mujahideens needs in money and equipment. By doing so the donator is considered Mujahid and deserves the same reward.
  5. Taking care of the Mujahid’s family – A believer who supplies a Mujahid’s family needs is considered Mujahid and deserves half of his reward. If one neglects this act it may bring him misfortune and death by the hands of God.
  6. Assisting the fallens families – by supplying the special needs of the orphans and widows.
  7. Assisting the families of prisoners and wounded fighters – by supplying their necessities.
  8. Fund raising for the Mujahideen – money is the lifeline of the Jihad. Its importance also stems from gathering donations which would arouse the spirit of Jihad and the believer’s hearts. There are many ways of carrying out this duty: in mosques, public places, family gatherings, charity events, and monthly donation or by urging the wealthy to open their hands to the Mujahideen.
  9. Granting charity donations to the Mujahideens – who enjoy priority status in Islam.
  10. Financing medical treatment for wounded Mujahideen.
  11. Praising the Mujahideen and their deeds – It is essential to educate the Islamic Nation on their values and to see them as a role model.
  12. Encouraging the Mujahideen to stick to their ways – in order to strengthen their spirit and moral.
  13. Protecting the Mujahideen -avoid publishing any information that may
    place them in jeopardy or spoil the spirit of Jihad. Al-Salem warns his readers from the Arabic daily Al-Sharq Al-Awsat (Saudi orientated, published in London) which conducts the “crusader – Jewish scheme” against Islam by publishing false information designed to destroy the steadfastness of the Islamic Nation and the Mujahideens’ spirit.
  14.  Publicizing the disgrace of hypocrites and defeatists – who strive to
    weaken the Islamic Nation.
  15. Preaching to Jihad – Enormous reward is promised to every Muslim who serves as a catalyst for other believers to commit the duty of the Jihad.
  16. Providing strategic advice to the Mujahideen – This can be translated in many ways including the supply of essential information on the enemy and his plans in order to be well prepared.
  17. Keeping secrecy concerning the Mujahideen.
  18. Prayers to Allah for the sake of the Mujahideen and for the defeat of
    the enemies.
  19. Holding special prayer to avoid misfortune and to strengthen the Muslim community.
  20. Publishing the Mujahideens’ activities in order to arouse the notion of
    solidarity and strengthen pride and hope among the believers, to praise the ideal of self-sacrifice for the sake of Allah and to break the media siege imposed by the enemy. There are varied ways recommended for distributing information praising Jihad including Internet websites and forums, distribution lists, circulating publications in public places (for instance mosques, schools), sending SMS, etc.
  21. Participating in publishing process of books on the Mujahideen.
  22. Publishing Islamic laws supporting the Jihad – This mission falls on the shoulders of the Muslim scholars who have the duty to guide the Islamic Nation in the light of the Jihad and to call believers to join the
    Mujahideen and pray on their behalf. Their followers are demanded to urge the scholars to act. In this context, Al-Salem glorifies the role of Sheik Hamoud Al-Oqala Al-Shu’aybi (radical Saudi scholar, deceased 2 years ago, backed the Taliban regime and al-Qaeda) as an adorable scholar who thrived to strengthen the Jihadi organizations worldwide by publishing Islamic laws justifying terror suicide attacks and holy war against the infidels.
  23. Keeping steady, consistent contact with scholars and preachers in order to update them about the current happenings in connection with the Mujahideen. The believer is asked to assist Islamic scholars who on certain occasion are under government pressure or influenced by false information. He has to update them regularly with reliable information, to support them and urge them to persist with the call to Jihad.
  24. Physical practicing – A Muslim who designates himself to become a
    Mujaheed has to start gradually by improving his physical fitness. Al-Salem elaborates in his book a recommended practicing program which includes enhancing the endurance of both the heart and lungs, increasing muscle mass and strength.
  25. Acquiring shooting skills – Al-Salem calls on Muslims not to be
    satisfied solely with the tuition of Jihad but to prepare in performing in this duty by acquiring shooting skills.
  26. Practicing swimming and riding horses – riding horses, explains Al-Salem is still relevant in the battlefields of Afghanistan, Chechnya and Iraq.
  27. Learning first aid skills – to help wounded Mujahudeen (splicing broken bones, providing infusions, etc.).
  28. Learning the doctrine of Jihad – Al-Salem recommends dozens of books, articles and Islamic laws published in recent years by Muslim radical leaders and scholars most of them Saudis by origin (Osama Bin Laden, Hamoud Al-Oqala Al-Shuaibi, Abd Aziz Jarbou’, Yusouf Al-‘ayyiri, Naser Al-Fahed, Ali Al-Khudier, Suliman Al-Olwan and more). One of them is the Al-Khudier’s Islamic law which justifies the use of weapons of mass destruction against the U.S.
  29. Supplying refuge and shelter to the Mujahideen.
  30. Expressing hostility and hatred toward infidels – A call for
    reconciliation or co-existence with the infidels might weaken the
    Mujahudeen. One may call for a Hudna, but to place it in practice is
    forbidden.
  31. Constant action to achieve the release of all prisoners – held in enemy jails and to use all means for their escape or release.
  32. Distributing current information on the prisoners in order to keep their high moral.
  33. Performing electronic Jihad – Al-Salem attributes paramount importance to the Internet as a component for Jihad. He calls believers to join the Jihad by participating in Internet forums to defend the Islam and Mujahideen, to preach Jihad and to encourage Muslims to learn more about this sacred duty. The Internet provides an opportunity to reach vast, target audiences and respond swiftly to false allegations. Computer experts are asked to use their skills and experience in destroying American, Jewish and secular websites as well as morally corrupt web sites.
  34. Alienation of infidels – Believers in other religions have to be
    isolated from Muslim communities so they will be prevented from committing hostile actions.
  35. Educating the younger generation to adore Jihad and the Mujahideen – The children, asserts Al-Salem are the “fuel” of the next stage of confrontation with the infidels. Parents have the duty to educate them to adore Jihad and the Mujahideen and to prepare themselves mentally for self-sacrifice for the sake of Allah. Al-Salem recommends believers to tell their young stories about the life of Prophet Mohammad, his associates, the great Muslim conquerors and the Mujahideen in our time. In addition it is recommended to
    display to the children Jihadi films and taped preaches which praise
    martyrdom.
  36. Abandoning the luxuries of materialism – which might weaken the spirit  of Jihad.
  37. Boycotting enemy’s commodities – as part of the economic Jihad.
  38. Avoiding the employment of foreign workers – from enemy countries.

(# 39 is missing….need to investigate further…)

Law Enforcement and all other American citizens must take notice of the messages being provided by Al Qaeda and other such groups.  They are openly sharing with us their battle plan, but few are taking advantage of this pot of gold.

In case anyone thinks the above firing was a one off, well, under the reign of Barack HUSSEIN Obama patriotic military folks are targeted fodder – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/10/01/u-s-heroes-are-targeted-under-the-thuggish-reign-of-barack-hussein-obama-addendum-to-lt-colonel-lakin-a-hero-a-role-model-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

Most significantly, what is more anti-American, hence derelict and immoral, than failing to teach ones soldiers/officers about the enemy’s intent AND their doctrine?

Freedom of Speech & Its Evisceration Of All Meaning: Its Collision Course With Moral Relativism/Historicism…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

Some constructs are obvious on their face, but many require a helping hand from those who are imbued with deeper critical thinking skills. And, this is what separates average folks from ones who are blessedly endowed with a true ability to see from there to here. It must be emphasized, this blog would be a lesser force for enlightenment, if not for the wisdom gleaned through several associates – https://adinakutnicki.com/about/ . And for that, among  other things, there is immense gratitude.

That being said, the western construct of freedom of speech is bandied about without much understanding of its true meaning/intent. But those of us who studied Constitutional Law do have a leg up on its interpretation, but tragically leftist legal scholars have perverted its essence. Herein lies its basis: 

‘First Amendment of the Bill of Rights to the United States Constitution’

CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW RESPECTING AN ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION, OR PROHIBITING THE FREE EXERCISE THEREOF; OR ABRIDGING THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH, OR OF THE PRESS; OR THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE PEACEABLY TO ASSEMBLE, AND TO PETITION THE GOVERNMENT FOR A REDRESS OF GRIEVANCES.

The Bill of Rights to the U.S. Constitution was ratified on December 15, 1791
“Censorship reflects a society’s lack of confidence in itself. It is a hallmark of an authoritarian regime . . . .” — Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart, dissenting Ginzberg v. United States, 383 U.S. 463 (1966)

http://www.ala.org/offices/oif/firstamendment/firstamendment

Its intrinsic understanding couldn’t be any more compelling, particularly due to today’s upside down, PC-driven world. A world in which moral relativism/historicism has stripped bare any rendering of good vs evil, yet at the same time some speech is “preferred” speech. In reality, the leadership of the free world, one which is as morally compromised as can be (https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/15/regime-gone-wild-obama-inc-repeatedly-caught-with-their-pants-down-where-is-this-leading-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/) has become the arbiter of which speech is allowable, and which is forbidden. Hence, the following has become the western “norm”, as AG Holder (Obama Inc’s chief’s legal enforcer) chills the public discourse – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/07/28/alert-radical-in-chief-obama-tasks-illegally-bent-ag-holder-to-criminalize-islamic-speech-via-thuggish-un-dictates-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

Yet, if more heft is required to delineate why freedom of speech, in its Constitutional interpretation, has become DOA, peer within what is at stake…onto its chopping block – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/12/22/first-amendment-rights-on-the-chopping-block-via-criminalizing-criticism-of-islam-addendum-to-shariah-law-its-silencing-of-all-dissent-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

Enter, once again, Professor Paul Eidelberg (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Eidelberg), gifting us sorely needed critical thinking skills.

Freedom of Speech

Prof. Paul Eidelberg – 

Freedom of speech is not an end-in-itself or merely an exercise in self-expression. Nor is it the meaningless prattle of children—although much babbling often occurs among adults. Rightly understood, speech manifests reason, the quintessential function of which is to communicate ideas, to inquire into their truth or falsity, their expediency or inexpediency, their justice or injustice.

Since speech is an intellectual/moral phenomenon, to sever it from reason, truth, and justice is to relegate this distinctively human faculty to a mere instrument of self-aggrandizement.  This is the tendency of normless as opposed to normative democracy, a tendency that degrades man and makes a mockery of his right to freedom of speech. It has also made nonsense of the term “liberal.”

In the lexicon of America’s Founding Fathers, a “liberal” was a person free from prejudice, that is, from unexamined opinions. “Liberals” could be friends despite their differences because what they held in common was more important than their differences”: confident belief in the efficacy of reason and in the existence of immutable truths concerning justice. Hence Jefferson could say in his First Inaugural Address, “We are all Republicanswe are all Federalists”—a perfectly liberal sentiment.

Unfortunately, the pillars of classical liberalism were shattered during the twentieth century, primarily by invasion of historical relativism in the halls of learning. Today, in the minds of most liberals—also called “Progressives”—truth is relative to time and place. Like Darwinism, truth is evolutionary. But why “change” should be “progressive” and not retrogressive is hardly obvious. Nevertheless, it’s the mantra of politicians who know how to arouse discontent and democratic envy.

Indeed, as a result of democratic envy, justice in contemporary America has been reduced to equality—equality abstracted from a person’s efforts or contribution to the common good. We see, therefore, that just as freedom of speech has been severed from ethical constraints, so equality has been severed from merit.

Now, it needs to be emphasized that if freedom of speech is divorced from truth, democracy is no more justifiable than tyranny. Stated in a more general way, if there are no valid or objective standards as to how man should live, then there are no rational grounds for preferring democracy to tyranny. This is a logical consequence of moral relativism. Notice, moreover, that moral relativism does not logically justify the toleration of all lifestyles. Relativism undermines any objective grounds for preferring tolerance to intolerance. Even if relativism were true, it would be deadly, especially when confronted by Islamic absolutism, whose mantra is the love of death!

The only rational defense of freedom of speech or of intellectual freedom is that it can facilitate the quest for truth, including the truth concerning how man should live. But no such quest can even begin unless we already know, in some general and authoritative way, what is right and wrong. Clearly, the claim to academic freedom can have no justification unless it is commonly understood that it is wrong to cheat or deceive, to plagiarize or steal, to defame or murder. This suggests that moral relativists, who very much dominate the academia, take civilization for granted.

The true father of civilization is none other than Abraham, the father of the Jewish people. In his discovery of the one and only God—in Abraham’s monotheism—the God of Nature is also the God of History. This monotheism is the only solid foundation for the moral unity of human nature and the idea of the human community—an idea remote from Islam, which posits the primacy of force. To the contrary, the God of Abraham posits the primacy of reason. This is why freedom of speech has its home not in the dismal and distorted monotheism of Islam—a harbinger of death—but in the life-enhancing monotheism of Judaism.

In contrast to Islam, which regards all infidels as guilty, Abraham questions God that the imminent destruction Sodom and Gomorrah may result in the death of some innocent lives. But the point requiring emphasis in the context of this article is that the freedom of speech displayed by Abraham was manifested again and again by the prophets of Israel, who fearlessly admonished kings. Why so? Because the laws of God transcend the laws of men.

But isn’t this teaching of Abraham manifested in America’s Declaration of Independence, which admonished the king of Great Britain on behalf of the “the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God”?

And, while the above is surely not the ever patient Prof’s maiden voyage into this insidious maelstrom, precipitously due to moral relativism/historicism, there are always lessons to impart – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/04/23/the-incalculable-price-of-moral-relativism-the-co-option-of-freedom-of-speech-its-direct-nexus-to-bostons-jihad-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/Most significantly, the moral decline of America – the west’s guiding light – can be traced back to historicism, the twin pillar/devil to moral relativism.

As such, Professor Paul Eidelberg is incontrovertibly the master of its domain. Learn his lessons well! Pay them forward!

WAR DRUMS BLARING: The Commander-in-Chief Is AWOL; Russia In Charge; Iran’s Axis Ascendant; Israel Left Dangling…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

EVER since the Islamist-in-Chief secured his second term in the People’s House, this blog has been blaring the harshest, red hot alarms across these pages, in relation to his plans for the Mid East in general, and Israel in particular. And while others – inside and outside Israel – prefer to cover their ears, close their eyes and play possum, this address will brook no such fantasy land. Reality is where it’s at.

In the starkest of terms, the following was written:

In dread of a second term, a compendium of facts was amassed to indict Obama Inc, in relation to the regime’s clear plans for Israel –  https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/11/06/obamas-second-term-plans-for-israel-if-re-elected-going-for-broke-addendum-to-stunning-video-exposing-islamist-in-chiefs-mendacity-re-israel-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/. No sugarcoating.

And a charge sheet was laid out, in the clearest of terms, how Israel’s northern front went from relatively calm to the highest level of alert in fire-speak – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/22/israels-northern-front-primed-for-explosion-who-lit-the-match-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

So, the fact that a precursor to World War 3 was written in Dec 2012 – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/12/07/world-war-3s-place-markers-set-up-through-barack-hussein-obamas-mid-east-fires-addendum-to-northeast-intelligence-network-posits-a-direct-nexus-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/ – does not render this blog with soothsayer status, but it does mean that the facts at hand could have been avoided, if the Commander-in-Chief was not an Islamist at heart and a coke fiend to boot, doing the down and dirty while Benghazigate exploded – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/24/whatwho-was-occupying-obamas-missing-time-as-americans-died-in-benghazi-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

But not to let them off the hook, Israel’s leadership was skewered in an interview with Inquisitr –  https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/28/the-inquisitr-interviews-adina-kutnicki-the-reality-of-life-for-an-israeli-patriot-2/ …and baring these truths was more than heart rending, but still the facts at hand. And this is how we came from there to here –  

‘Israeli forebodings over widening Russian-Hizballah-Iraqi intervention in Syria’

DEBKAfile Special Report May 29, 2013
Russian Syrian military drill

Russian Syrian military drill

Forebodings were voiced Wednesday, May 29, by senior Israeli military officers in the face of the widening military intervention in the Syria civil war by Russia, Iran, Hizballah and latterly Iraq too. They have made Syria’s civil war the platform for a Russian contest against the West and a ladder up which Iran and its proxy Hizballah are climbing to top Middle East regional power spot.
Russia, Iran and Hizballah are winning the contest by default against an unresisting US-led West and a hesitant Israel.
A senior IDF officer acknowledged on Wednesday, May 29, that Israel’s government and military leaders are at a loss on how to proceed. They have yet to recover from the calamitous miscalculation that Bashar Assad’s days were numbered to which they clung stubbornly for almost eighteen months.

Even today, some spokesmen refer to a “disintegrating Syria,” thereby losing sight of the major strategic and military changes overtaking the country that are entirely to Israel’s detriment as well as eroding its options against a nuclear Iran.
At a time that the US and Israel should be using their heaviest military guns to slow Iran’s race for a nuclear bomb, Tehran with Moscow’s backing has brought its military assets up close to Israel’s borders in Syria and Lebanon and openly threatens to use them.

Unlike Syria and Iran, Israel can’t count on military intervention against an aggressor by supportive big powers.  According to DEBKAfile’s Washington sources, no part of the Obama administration, including its military and intelligence arms, favors military action in Syria.
Even the direct evidence of chemical warfare already afoot in Syria is unavailing.

In Addis Ababa, US Secretary of State John Kerry repeated the administration’s mantra Wednesday by denying “concrete evidence” of the use of chemical weapons in Syria.
The Secretary and the rest of NATO were deaf to the vivid testimony brought to Le Monde Wednesday by two reporters, who risked their necks by spending two months concealed in the Jobar district of Damascus. They discovered Russia or Iran had developed a chemical weapon that does not explode. The release of its poisonous gases sounds like popping the top off a can of soda and has “no odor, no smoke, not even a whistle to indicate the release of a toxic gas.”
So what does happen?

The Le Monde reporters provided a graphic first-hand description.

“The men cough violently. Their eyes burn, their pupils shrink, their vision blurs. Soon they experience difficulty breathing, sometimes in the extreme; they begin to vomit or lose consciousness. The fighters worst affected need to be evacuated before they suffocate.”
Wednesday morning, the Israeli Home Front rehearsed an attack on a Jerusalem suburb by a chemical-tipped missile.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who watched, said the exercise is designed to protect Israeli civilians “from the threats pilling up around us.” Israel’s home front is the best protected in the world but also the most threatened, he said: “We must make sure that defense is in place before an attack.
Tuesday, Israeli Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon voiced his certainty that the Syrian President would not use chemical weapons against Israel or treat Israelis the way he treats his own people. There is no indication that anyone in the region intends to challenge us any time soon with unconventional weapons, said the defense minister.

DEBKAfile’s military sources find Ya’alon’s comment delusory. They don’t see why Assad would treat Israelis differently from his own people – especially since the IDF has presented him with no real deterrent. After all, none of Israel’s three air strikes in January and May stopped the flow of Hizballah fighters into Syria. And meanwhile, Syrian and Hizballah leaders are declaring loud and clear that a war front against Israel is already operating from the Syrian Golan and Lebanon.
The question is who in Israel is listening. And what is being done to make sure that Assad will be prevented from using chemical weapons against Israeli military and civilian targets at a time of his convenience.
The spate of events in the last 48 hours is troubling – to say the least.
Monday, US Senator John McCain was reported to have paid a secret visit to Syria. What did this “visit” consist of? DEBKAfile reports: The senator entered Syria from Turkey through the Kilis corridor which is the main supply route for the rebels in Aleppo, one of the few still under their control. McCain penetrated some 300 meters into Syria, had his picture taken, and left.

A US publication reported Wednesday that President Barack Obama had ordered the Pentagon to draw up plans to establish no-fly zones over Syria against Syrian warplanes. The Pentagon thereupon issued a denial: “There are no new American operational plans,” said the spokesman.

Moscow’s response was ready in place even before the report was published.
Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said the S-300 anti-air missiles that Russia was supplying the Assad regime were a “stabilizing factor” that could dissuade “some hotheads” from entering the conflict.

In the grades Moscow handed out for foreign interventionists: The US and Israel and their leaders were “hotheads” while Moscow,  the calm, rational stabilizer.
In that capacity, DEBKAfile’s military and intelligence sources reveal that a huge Russian cargo plane landed in Latakia airport Wednesday with 60 tons of “humanitarian aid for Syria.”
The nature of this cargo was not disclosed, but the last thing it must have been was “humanitarian” given the massive military aid Moscow is extending Assad’s army.
Moscow also knocked on the head the timorous decision by European Union foreign ministers Tuesday to lift the arms embargo for Syrian rebels, which they carefully combined with a decision not to send them weapons.

In sum, the US is not doing anything to help the rebels, Europe is not sending arms, the rebels’ Persian Gulf patrons have bowed to pressure from Washington and slashed their weapons aid, while Israel declares it wants no part of the Syrian civil war – even after it assumed the calamitous proportions of a world power contest with Israel’s arch foes gaining the upper hand.
So who is feeding the flames of the Syrian conflict with a generous supply of military hardware? Who but Russia, the self-styled “stabilizing factor”

The Free Syrian Army’s Supreme Commander Gen. Salem Idris made a desperate show of bravado Wednesday, by threatening to strike Hizballah strongholds in Lebanon if Hassan Nasrallah does not pull his brigades out of Syria within 24 hours.

Hizballah knows perfectly well that Gen. Salem is starved of weapons, just he knows that the US, Europe or Israel will not interfere with the stream of fighting strength he is pumping into Syria.
At worst, a few rockets will hit Hizballah centers in Beirut and the Beqaa Valley. Early Tuesday morning, the rebels tried to ambush Hizballah forces near the eastern town of Arsal. Their operation went badly wrong and mistakenly killed three Lebanese soldiers manning an army checkpoint.
The senior Israeli officer interviewed by DEBKAfile put all these forebodings into words when he said: “A military and strategic catastrophe for the West and Israel is in full flight in Syria, and no one in Washington or Jerusalem is lifting a finger. Israel’s government and military heads never imagined that the Syrian war would take this turn. But we had better wake up at this eleventh hour – before it is too late.”

While few will admit it, Israel’s leadership hasn’t learned a damn thing since the 1973 “surprise” Yom Kippur War. In essence, while all the signs of military buildup were there – at least for those who chose to keep their eyes opened – the fact of the matter was that Jerusalem’s top leadership preferred to keep them shut. As such, it was THAT close to midnight, forty years ago to be exact, a pittance in historical context. In this regard, the “Samson Option” was almost operational – http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/History/intel73.html.

The players have changed, but nothing else, when you fast forward to the upcoming regional firestorm. The gravest error from PM Netanyahu’s tenure (and there are many to choose from) is hitching Jerusalem’s wagon to Washington, particularly under the reign of Barack HUSSEIN Obama. History will bear this out, thus, proving what happens when a statesman is not at the helm. It is not a question of this boom strike or that one, or a sabotage here or there in enemy territory. But it is a matter of statesmanship. And the fact of the matter is that a true Jewish, Zionist statesman would NEVER leave Israel’s fate dangling in Washington, especially when witnessing the massive buildup of its genocidal foes at its borders. 

Let no one be mistaken, irrespective of Israel’s failure of leadership, as to what really hangs in the balance: if Israel sees itself near destruction, Jerusalem will take down the entire Mid East, plus other “valuable” targets which are already marked out. The region will burn to the ground, as well it should. 

It is past the eleventh hour…it is less than a quarter to midnight!!

IRSgate: Obama Inc About To Be Blown Wide Open; Its Revolving IRS Door…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

One doesn’t operate a corporate tax practice without countless interfaces with the (dreaded) IRS behemoth. In fact, having them on speed dial – at least its Chief Compliance Division & Taxpayer Advocate Service – is more than prudent. Not doing so would be downright inefficient. And this blogger is anything but disorganized.

Now imagine said practice deeply involved with forensic accounting, as well as non-profit 990 filings for both 501 (c) (3) applicants which deals with religious, educational, charitable, scientific entities and the like, and 501 (c) (4) involving social welfare, civic issues, political-oriented orgs. The ability to fully distinguish between the applicable requirements for tax exemption requires a certain skill set – https://adinakutnicki.com/about/. Taken a step further, it means understanding what is allowable and what isn’t, and not only from the perspective of the non-profit applicant. It involves a discerning and keen eye, intuiting when even the regularly invasive IRS has crossed the line. Going up the chain of command may become necessary, especially when said Field Agent appears out of their depth. (as an aside…generally the sharpest tool in the shed doesn’t become an Agent, they opt for private practice or a challenging postion in the high paying private sector) And any practice which can’t tell the difference between legal and illegal IRS behavior is less than reputable.

So when IRSgate first hit the fan, the immediate recognizable sign pointing towards illegal conduct was the highly personal, inappropriate, totally irrelevant, intrusive nature of the questioning. Questioning which is out of bounds under any circumstance, even if it involves an insatiably “curious” IRS Examiner.

‘IRS Officials Visited White House More Than 100 Times During

Targeting – Bush-Era IRS Chief Visited WH Once in 4 Years.’

Monday, May 27, 2013 23:14
 

Rick Moran * American Thinker

More grist for the conspiracy mill – except the way this thing is going, conspiracy may be the least of our worries.

Exmainer:

Top IRS officials, whose agency was under investigation for targeting conservative groups, visited the Obama White House more than 100 times over two years while the probe was going on, far more often than in previous administrations and frequently enough that Republicans suspect White House officials knew about the targeting.

Lawmakers now investigating the Internal Revenue Service practice zeroed in on those nearly weekly White House meetings to determine whether an IRS official — or someone higher up in the administration — had approved the targeting and whether it was politically motivated.

The frequent meetings also raised questions about the White House’s claims that it couldn’t have instigated the targeting of conservative groups because it took a hands-off approach to the tax agency, going so far as to describe it as independent of the administration even though it’s part of the Treasury Department.

[…]

http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2013/05/irs_officials_visited_white_house_more_than_100_time

Here’s some more meat on the bones – “The Washington Examiner reported on Monday that Mark Everson, Commissioner of Internal Revenue from 2003 to 2007, during the Bush administration, visited the White House exactly once while in office. Indeed he felt like he’d “moved to Siberia” so out of the ordinary political loop was he. But Douglas Shulman, Commissioner from 2008 to 2012, during the Obama administration, visited the White House 118 times just in 2010 and 2011. His successor, Steven Miller, also visited “numerous” times.” – http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2013/05/27/a-frequent-visitor-to-the-white-house-irs-scandal/

Want to know where the IRS is really headed, if the brakes aren’t applied?  

‘Obama’s IRS Spies’ – video embedded

MAY 28, 2013 BY  
Floyd Brown, in his prescient exposé Obama’s Enemies List, shouted from the highest mountain, warning of a rogue Obama administration and its mammoth enemies list; but the Establishment refused to listen. Now that the IRS scandal and attack on the Press has proven him right, the mainstream media is playing catch up.
As long as it was just those so-called “extremist” Tea Party, pro-life, and Christian groups that were being attacked, no one seemed to care. But now that we know the Obama administration is an “equal opportunity” attacker, going after the Associated Press, Fox News, local reporters, Romney donors, Benghazi whistleblowers, etc., etc. (with more Obama enemies sure to surface), the country now seems to be taking notice.

But this is only the surface of how the Obama enemies list works. Everything, and I mean everything, is geared towards an enemies list, which is predicated on having an extensive surveillance state.

The communist Saul Alinsky, Barack Hussein Obama’s favorite community organizer, famously said, “The issue is never the issue.” Put a little more plainly: “Deception is our Modus Operandi.”

Case in point: ObamaCare.

Presumably, ObamaCare is about access to healthcare. But doctors are dropping out of the healthcare system in droves, healthcare is already being rationed, and healthcare costs are skyrocketing as much as four hundred percent.

The issue is never the issue. ObamaCare is notabout access to healthcare; it’s about an elaborate system to support an enemies list.

Enter the IRS, now in charge of ObamaCare.

In order for the IRS to supposedly determine whether Americans are eligible for government subsidies to pay for mandated health insurance, they must collect a horrendous amount of information on every single American. The IRS is creating a database so vast that it makes George Orwell’s dystopian society in the book1984 look like amateur hour. Called the Federal Data Services Hub, it will combine the IRS’s income and employment database with the Social Security, Homeland Security, Department of Justice, and Health and Human Services databases. Combined with the proposed Immigration Bill creating a national ID system, this will be the mother of all databases—the mother of a complete and total surveillance state.

Does America really believe that the same woman behind the targeting of conservatives at the IRS, former commissioner of tax exempt and government entities Sarah Hall Ingram, now promoted to the head of the IRS’ Affordable Care Act office, was a coincidence? That the person in charge of sending hundreds of questionnaires to Tea Party, pro-life, and Christian groups asking for personal information was promoted to the ObamaCare office by some objective bureaucratic points system?

The issue is never the issue. ObamaCare is not about healthcare; it’s about surveillance. It’s about control. But most importantly, it’s about having access to the information of your enemies. And Obama specifically chose Sarah Hall Ingram to be in charge of this mammoth enemies list.

Conservative groups were prevented from obtaining tax-exempt status by the IRS, forcing them to divulge donor lists, intern lists, and political and family connections, Facebook posts, tweets, event records, transcripts of speeches, even the content of their prayers, all as part of an effort to collect data on their enemies.

Imagine you are a Tea Party member who needs hip replacement surgery. Sarah Hall Ingram, Obama’s chief ObamaCare enforcer, sees the request but also sees through her extensive database that you are part of a local Tea Party group that had opposed ObamaCare, the plan you are now locked into. Think you’ll get a hip replacement? Think again. First will come the endless questions. First will come the long wait. Only when you come around to Obama’s “common sense” approached to healthcare (that is, socialized medicine) and drop the whole perceived Tea Party nonsense will you get the healthcare you need.

The issue is never the issue. ObamaCare is not about healthcare; it’s about a surveillance state. It’s about Obama having access to information on his enemies.

If ObamaCare is allowed to continue—if the Obama administration is allowed to continue, we will no longer have a United States of America. It will be something else. A truly Orwellian nightmare with Barack Hussein Obama as Big Brother and the enemies of the state being conservatives.

http://www.westernjournalism.com/obamas-irs-spies/

Most significantly, the IRS is supposed to function independently of the White House and without its interference, unless a COMPELLING public interest is at stake. Color this blogger a skeptic, but when a regime goes wild, isn’t it reasonable that illegal behavior on the part of the IRS would be encouraged and given more than a wink and a nod? – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/15/regime-gone-wild-obama-inc-repeatedly-caught-with-their-pants-down-where-is-this-leading-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

Extrapolating herein, it was patently obvious that the targeting of Conservative groups (Jewish Zionist ones alike – http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2013/05/29/did-the-palestinians-ask-obama-to-target-pro-israeli-501c3s/ – whose audience is mainly Conservative…yes, there are politically Conservative Jews!) was directly related to electoral interference. For IF an organization spends an inordinate amount of time away from accomplishing the goals of their Mission Statement ; IF much needed funds are expended on corp tax accountants (they don’t come cheap!), in a vain  attempt to comply with reams of questions which are non-ending; IF a non-profit’s status is held in abeyance, therefore, donations become taxable and fewer pour in; then the amount of damage accrued to a confluence of targeted groups becomes insurmountable, effectively tipping the electoral balance…akin to stealing the election in broad daylight! 

Consider this grudge match: if a middle class earner tries to go up against a millionaire in the money arena, and then the millionaire attempts to fight the billionaire, does anyone have a doubt who will come out on top?

In essence, Obama Inc’s abuse of the IRS’s purview – which is NEVER allowed to show any bias whatsoever in its mandate – not only indicts all players into jail cells, but it proves beyond a doubt that the IRS has become irredeemably tainted. So not only should their top colluding henchmen/women share adjoining cells with Obama Inc., but the IRS itself must be dismantled, reg by reg.

A flat tax is becoming more and more appealing and the prudent way forward. It will cure much of the sickness feeding Washington’s voracious appetite, and that would be a positive outcome out of an outrageous abuse of power polluting the Beltway!

Islamic Foxes Burrowed Deeply Within U.S. State Dept: Posing as “Diplomats”, As Clinton & Abedin (Others) Serve(d) As POTUS’s Helping Hands…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

Rumblings from assorted contacts have been heard – ever since this blog’s inception – that Obama Inc. is Allah deep in recruiting Muslims for postings at the State Dept. And even though the head “foxette”, Huma Abedin, has been front and center herein, the rest of the saga has yet to be told at these pages, until now. Tie-ins to “this and that” had to develop.

So now that a proper investigation into Benghazigate is off and running, a long overdue public airing is coming full circle. With  Americans reeling from Boston’s jihad, it behooves outing another Islamic putsch into the American body politic – a dagger straight into its heart – which will surely blow back with another urban jihad.

Yet before we head to the core of the matter, do recall what has been cited here and there: 

The Islamist-in-Chief has been assiduously propping up the Muslim Brotherhood Mafia from the onset of his first term, and his “outreach” in Cairo (with the Brotherhood Mafia sitting front and center and Mubarak a “NO show”) must be seen as our reference point…our green bow and arrow – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/08/13/coming-full-circle-the-planned-empowerment-of-the-muslim-mafia-aka-brotherhood-via-egypt-most-populous-arab-country-under-the-guidance-of-barack-hussein-obama-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

In this regard, the “Arab Spring”, really an Arab Nightmare, is playing out all over the Mid East and beyond. Its tentacles reach into western interests, wherever they reside. As such, Boston was their opening shot for urban jihad – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/04/18/muslim-brotherhood-mafias-stealth-jihad-emerges-from-the-shadows-straight-into-bostons-heart-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/. It goes without saying,  placing lipstick on an Islamic pig via State’s postings will hardly tame the Muslim beasts in far off lands. For if this is their goal, surely the first line of inquiry should be: does the applicant have ANY connection to “this and that” Islamic terror-tied group, even those who are indicted (some non-indicted) co-conspirators to the Holy Land Foundation trial, yes, THAT trial…the one in which tentacled terror hydras (mostly) operated out of 555 Grove Street, Herndon, Virginia! You know, the same jihadis who lecture FBI, local law enforcement, Pentagon employees and every official organ in between – http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/3672/muslim-brotherhood-us-government. For some much needed background and disinfectant, commence your journey herein:

‘HOLY LAND FOUNDATION FOR RELIEF AND DEVELOPMENT (HLF)’

  • U.S-based Islamic charity shut down by authorities in 2001 for funding the terrorist group Hamas

Established in 1988 (under the name “Occupied Land Fund”) by Shukri Abu Baker, Mohammad El-Mezain and Ghassan Elashi, the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF) was a non-profit, tax-exempt, charitable trust headquartered in Richardson, Texas. It also maintained branch offices in New Jersey, California, and Illinois. Its name change took place in 1992.

Calling itself America’s largest Islamic charity, HLF purported to be a source of help for needy Palestinian Muslims in Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, and the Palestinian Authority (PA). “Our mission,” stated its website, “is to find and implement practical solutions for human suffering through humanitarian programs that impact the lives of the disadvantaged, disinherited, and displaced peoples suffering from man-made and natural disasters.” In reality, however, the Foundation was a major financier of the terrorist organization Hamas.

In its earliest days, HLF received a $200,000 cash infusion from Ghassan Elashi’s brother-in-law Musa Abu Marzook, the Hamas senior political leader and Virginia resident who would be deported in 1997 for his involvement in six terror attacks in Israel that killed 47 people. By 1989, HLF had already sent nearly $1 million to Marzook and Hamas co-founder Ahmed Yassin (to the latter through an account called the Islamic Center of Gaza — another ostensibly charitable entity used by Yassin to finance Hamas activities).

HLF’s precursor, the Occupied Land Fund, was named in a May 1991 Muslim Brotherhood document — titled “An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America” — as one of the Brotherhood’s 29 likeminded “organizations of our friends” that shared the common goal of destroying America and turning it into a Muslim nation. These “friends” were identified by the Brotherhood as groups that could help teach Muslims “that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands … so that … God’s religion [Islam] is made victorious over all other religions.”

Also named in the Muslim Brotherhood document were:

Suspicious of its terrorist ties, U.S. federal authorities began monitoring the Holy Land Foundation in 1996. On September 5, 2001, federal anti-terrorism agents raided InfoCom Corporation, the company that ran the HLF website. According to defectors from the conspiracy, the HLF web server was used also by the American Muslims for Jerusalem. the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), the Islamic Association for Palestine, the Islamic Circle of North America, the Islamic Society of North America, and the Muslim Students’ Association of the U.S. and Canada. As Islam scholar Stephen Schwartz writes, “All these organizations drew from the common financial and technical pool at HLF. All shared a single administrative and technical contact for the maintenance of the web server. They had been erected as political shells around the Hamas hydra-head represented by HLF.” (Support for Hamas had become illegal in 1995 as the result of an executive order by President Bill Clinton and subsequent congressional action.)

On December 4, 2001, the Bush administration seized all HLF assets and records because of its Hamas connections. Said President Bush at the time: “Hamas has obtained much of the money that it pays for murder abroad right here in the United States, money originally raised by the Holy Land Foundation. The Holy Land Foundation … raised $13 million from people in America last year. … Money raised by the Holy Land Foundation is used by Hamas to support schools and indoctrinate children to grow up into suicide bombers. [It] is also used by Hamas to recruit suicide bombers and to support their families.”

In July 2004, federal authorities arrested five former HLF leaders: Mufid Abdulqader (the half-brother of Hamas’s supreme political leader, Khaled Mashal); Shukri Abu Baker (HLF’s co-founder and former President and Chief Executive); Ghassan Elashi (HLF’s co-founder and former Board Chairman and Treasurer); Mohammed El-Mezain (HLF’s co-founder and former Board Chairman); and Abdulraham Odeh (HLF’s former New Jersey representative). In a 42-count indictment, these individuals were charged with providing material support for Hamas terrorists to the tune of $12.4 million over a six-year period, and more than $57 million since the late 1988. Two more ex-officials of HLF, Haitham Maghawri and Akram Mishal, managed to escape U.S. jurisdiction and are considered to be fugitives.

According to the indictment, HLF tried to hide its terrorist-financing activities from American law-enforcement by making a few small contributions to innocuous, non-Palestinian entities while reserving the vast majority of its funds for terrorists. As Shukri Abu Baker told his underlings: “We can give $100,000 to the Islamists and $5,000 to the others.” Another HLF program, masquerading as charitable support for needy families and orphans in Palestinian territories, is said to have channeled money to families whose relatives had been killed or captured while waging jihad; some of them were suicide bombers.

In December 2006, two openly pro-Castro organizations — the Center for Constitutional Rights and the Humanitarian Law Project — jointly petitioned a federal judge to dismiss many of the charges brought against HLF.

On July 23, 2007, HLF’s leaders went on trial. Seven principal individuals were charged with twelve counts of providing “material support and resources” to a foreign terrorist organization. Additionally, they faced thirteen counts of money laundering and thirteen counts of breaching the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), which prohibits transactions that threaten American national security. Along with the seven named defendants, the government released a list of approximately 300 “unindicted co-conspirators” and “joint venturers.”

Among the unindicted co-conspirators were groups such as the Council on American-Islamic RelationsHamas, INFOCOM, theIslamic Association for Palestine, the Islamic Society of North America, the Muslim Arab Youth Association, the North American Islamic Trust, and the United Association for Studies and Research. The list also included many individuals affiliated with theMuslim Brotherhood and/or Hamas. Among these were Mousa Abu MarzookOmar AhmadAbdurahman AlamoudiYousef al-Qaradawi, Abdallah AzzamJamal BadawiMohammad JaghlitAbdel Aziz Rantisi, and Ahmed Yassin. Thirty-nine directors, employees and representatives of HLF were also named.

On October 22, 2007, after a two-month trial and nineteen days of jury deliberation, Judge A. Joe Fish declared a mistrial because the jury had been unable to deliver unanimous verdicts and had failed to convict on a single count brought against the defendants.

When the government retried the case a year later, prosecutors made several key adjustments. Most notably, they dropped somecounts against particular defendants; they called several new witnesses; and they displayed three exhibits which Israeli military officials had seized from the Palestinian Authority (PA). Those exhibits demonstrated that the PA, like the U.S. government, clearly considered HLF to be a Hamas funder; that an HLF-supported charity committee was fully controlled by Hamas; and that the defendants were well aware that whatever money they were raising in the U.S. was earmarked for Hamas.

On November 24, 2008, the jury convicted five former HLF officials — Mufid Abdulqader, Shukri Abu-Baker, Ghassan Elashi, Mohamed El-Mezain, and Abdelrahman Odeh — of conspiring to provide material support to terrorists.

STILL, if State needs any assists, they can ask this blogger for help in ferreting out “this one and that one”. Have a treasure trove of listings of the “who’s who” in Islamic terror activities. 

Onto the meat…

‘Report: Obama ‘covertly recruiting’ Muslims as diplomats’

Special to WorldTribune.com

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama is said to have been quietly
recruiting Muslims to serve as U.S. diplomats.

Judicial Watch said the Obama administration was hiring Muslims at the
State Department. The fiscal watchdog said the recruitment
was part of the administration’s outreach to Muslims to work for the federal
government.

“The Obama administration is covertly recruiting Muslims to work at the
State Department as Foreign Service officers representing the United States in one of 265 American embassies, consulates and diplomatic missions worldwide,” Judicial Watch said.

In a report on Jan. 31, Judicial Watch said the administration sought to
use the new Muslim recruits to bolster Washington’s relations with the rest of the world. The organization said the recruitment was headed by Mark Ward, deputy special coordinator in the State Department’s Office of Middle East Transition.

“Ward held a 90-minute seminar at a recent convention sponsored by two
groups — Muslim American Society and the Islamic Circle of North America — with known ties to radical Islam,” Judicial Watch said.

The two Muslim groups have been linked to the Muslim Brotherhood. The
Investigative Project on Terrorism identified the Muslim American Society as the U.S. chapter of the Brotherhood, with headquarters in Egypt.

“Besides being a citizenship duty, there are benefits that Muslims can
add to the American Muslim community and the global Muslim world by joining the U.S. Foreign Services,” a statement by the Muslim American Society said in late December 2012. “This session will shed light on the different career opportunities for Muslim youth in the U.S. Foreign Services Department. It will also clear any concerns that many people have feared about pursuing in this career.”

http://www.worldtribune.com/2013/02/03/report-obama-covertly-recruiting-muslims-as-diplomats/

It remains to be seen wherein lies the tipping point, and how much longer their infiltration/penetration will be tolerated. But this much appears to be on the horizon: future urban jihads will not go down as tepidly as Boston’s. In an overall sense, the jihadi tactics may very well be similar, but the response from some Americans more than likely very different. In effect, the jihadists within Washington’s underbelly might be as shocked by “Middle America’s” response, as will Muslim American Islamists “hiding in plain sight” – at least this is what plugged in types have been intimating.

Time will tell.

The Inquisitr Interviews Adina Kutnicki: The Reality Of Life For An Israeli Patriot

With the region in DEEP turmoil, it is intrinsic to keep the analysis contained herein atop my page.

GUN CONTROL Freaks Take Aim In Israel: Not Solely The Purview Of U.S. Leftist Revolutionaries…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

Readers are familiar with this blog’s ZERO tolerance regarding gun control, and its resonant outrage regarding the disarming of law abiding citizens. Aside from leaving citizens defenseless, equally enraging is the push to eviscerate a U.S. Constitutional bedrock. In other words, a double whammy is struck at those whose only “crime” is their intent to keep themselves and their loved ones safe. Yet those who bear watching – garden variety criminals and terrorists – will always, by hook or by crook, gain access to firepower. History has proven this to be the case, so let us cease pussyfooting around the matter. Black markets thrive, regardless of this or that “control”. A fool’s paradise.

That being said, now that Americans are witnessing a regime gone wild – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/15/regime-gone-wild-obama-inc-repeatedly-caught-with-their-pants-down-where-is-this-leading-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/ – does anyone in their right (no pun intended) mind believe that Washington’s miscreants are trustworthy, so much so that one would place their faith in the leadership to “have their back” when the chips are down?

And the fact that the left goes postal any time their power is at risk, isn’t this another ! qualified reason to keep ones guns close, rather than giving them up? – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/01/03/leftists-go-postal-over-gun-control-threatening-to-kill-legal-gun-owners-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/Let’s hope so.

And while Americans have their crosses to bear – chiefly in the footprints of Obama Inc. – what can one say about Israel’s demented left, you know, those who also (dis)grace these pages…the bane of this American-Israeli’s existence – http://www.inquisitr.com/671508/the-inquisitr-interviews-adina-kutnicki-the-reality-of-life-for-an-israeli-patriot/. Besides, with terrorists embedded within the fabric of Israel, whether in Israel proper or beyond the mythical “green line” – basically an armistice line created after Israel beat back several invading Arab armies – shouldn’t the “right to carry” be an inherent Jewish interest, at least if survival is the goal? One would think so. And since the enemies at Israel’s jugular have no intention of taking up knitting, then surely the (Jewish) right to bear arms is more than a necessity – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/05/12/balance-of-terror-abbass-pafatah-arabs-murder-jews-yet-the-peace-train-chugs-along-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

Full disclosure: it is entirely heartwarming to see a Jewish boy (or girl) at target practice. You never know when the skill will come in handy, whether in Israel or elsewhere. 

‘Ex-Security Chief: Don’t Rush to Take Our Guns’

Former IDF security chief says guns can prevent murder.

There have been increasing calls in recent weeks to restrict gun ownership, particularly in light of recent domestic murders committed by off-duty security guards. The murder of four people in a Be’er Sheva bank this week spurred further calls for increased gun control.

That would be a mistake, says former chief of IDF Internal Security Gershon Eckstein.

“I don’t recommend getting worked up and coming up with all kinds of proposals to reduce gun ownership and collect weapons in the wake of the horrific murder at Bank Hapoalim in Be’er Sheva,” he said.

“Just three years ago, the streets of our cities were plagued by terrorism, and more than a few terrorist attacks were stopped by an immediate response from citizens with personal weapons,” he noted. Armed citizens stopped terrorists in multiple tractor attacks in Jerusalem and during the shooting at Merkaz Harav Yeshiva. Guns have also been credited in ending attacks on motorists by Arab or Bedouin gangs.

“We are still not free of terrorism, and it could return to our streets,” Eckstein warned. “A terrorist attack that is not met with an immediate response could continue, and leave many victims. The police cannot be everywhere at once.”

Weapons could also be used to stop attacks like that in Be’er Sheva, he said. “Imagine if the murderer had been mentally stable, and if one of the other customers waiting at the bank had started to murder civilians,” he said. “The first thing he would have done would have been to neutralize the murderer using his weapon, and that would have saved lives.”

“The personal weapons owned by the Israeli public are the final line of defense and of immediate response, and need to be used to save lives,” he concluded.

Obama Inc’s Trial Balloons Re “Containing” Iran: Assorted Think Tanks/Surrogates Have His Back…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

From the get go this blog indicates that the Islamist-in-Chief has zero intention of striking Iran’s death project, but is duly determined in continuing with his jaw-jaw on one hand and imposing “biting ” sanctions on the other. Regardless, the sanctions have been circumvented in every conceivable aspect, pouring mega resources into racing to the bomb, yet their citizens be damned. WMD’s uber alles. 

In fact, this address raises the issue of Washington’s preparatory groundwork, in effect, subliminally messaging (to its domestic audience, as well as for foreign ears) that “living” with a nuclear Iran, with the goal being “containment”, is the prudent way forward. Never mind that the military option was never really on the table, other than through saber rattling and as a way to concomitantly contain/restrain Israel from taking action! Worse than evil…This would be akin to policy wonks advising Roosevelt to “contain” Hitler & his henchmen, yet on an exponentially calamitous scale. Insanity. Such an aberrant view would also have posited that there was no compelling humane necessity to stop Hitler’s killing machine through hammer blow bombings, but just to try and talk him down and keep an eye on him. Really.

At the head of this (mis)school of thought stands the “realists”, most of whom are deeply aligned with Iranian interests, either through “think tanks” or financially flush lobbying groups. Their twisted “realism” has them convinced (principally via baksheesh/bribery and other related perks) that since Israel (which they despise anyway…pining for its disappearance) is directly in the cross hairs, it is surely not a compelling American interest to utilize military force to stop another potential Holocaust. In tandem, if they continue “accommodating” Iran, surely the mullahs will stay clear of striking America’s shores. A win-win. Nevertheless, authentic realists understand that the “Big Satan” is the ultimate target, once the “Little Satan” bites the dust. However, blind hatred towards Israel, plus unbridled greed and power, allows for many to sit atop their brains.

Principally, the Islamist-in-Chief has Israel’s back, but not in its conventional meaning. A knife, poised to strike its back, is a hell of a lot more apt a description, as demonstrated within – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/11/06/obamas-second-term-plans-for-israel-if-re-elected-going-for-broke-addendum-to-stunning-video-exposing-islamist-in-chiefs-mendacity-re-israel-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

In furtherance of the above betrayal (despite Congress’s basic support of Israel…though largely irrelevant when the White House is bent on a foreign policy course, even if required to garner Congressional approval…think, Benghazigate) the Betrayer-in-Chief exerted every pressure to alternately string Jerusalem along via “assurances” ala rope-a-dope, or twist Israel’s high level leadership’s arms, as required – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/02/07/the-convergence-of-netanyahus-red-line-ajads-visit-to-cairo-irans-nuclear-status-barack-hussein-obamas-sojourn-to-israel-what-can-go-wrong-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/ . DO take note of the commentary’s date, over 3 1/2 months ago, a lifetime in Mid East politics.

‘A grand retreat from confronting Iran?’

Jerusalem Post By DAVID M. WEINBERG
05/23/2013
Washington wags are preparing a climb-down from Obama’s declared policy of halting Tehran’s nuclear drive.

Centrifuges unveiled in Natanz

A new Washington report headlined by former US under secretary of state for political affairs Thomas R. Pickering argues that America should end its confrontation with Iran over Tehran’s nuclear weapons drive.Pickering and his senior “Iran Project” colleagues want President Obama to altogether drop sanctions and covert action against Iran. They assert that sanctions are only “contributing to an increase in repression and corruption within Iran,” and alas “may be sowing the seeds of long-term alienation between the Iranian people and the United States.”Pickering’s call for American capitulation to Iran is now being echoed across the Washington wag world. Numerous think tanks are seeding the American diplomatic and political discourse with similar messages, and paving the way for a climbdown from Obama’s declared policy of preventing (and not merely containing) Iran’s obtainment of a nuclear weapon.This week, the Center for a New American Security, a think tank closely affiliated with the Obama administration, made it clear which way the Washington winds are blowing. Its study, “The Challenges of Containing a Nuclear-Armed Iran,” was primarily authored by former Obama administration deputy assistant secretary of defense for the Middle East Prof. Colin H. Kahl. He outlines “a comprehensive framework to manage and mitigate the consequences of a nuclear-armed Iran.” In other words, stopping the Iranian nuclear effort is already a passé discussion.Last month, an Atlantic Council task force (which Chuck Hagel co-chaired until he was appointed secretary of defense), similarly released a report that called for Washington to “lessen the chances for war through reinvigorated diplomacy that offers Iran a realistic and face-saving way out of the nuclear standoff.” That’s diplomatic- speak for a containment strategy.To top it all off, the Defense Department allied Rand Corporation concluded this week that a nuclear-armed Iran would not pose a fundamental threat to the United States and its regional allies. In “Iran After the Bomb: How Would a Nuclear-Armed Tehran Behave?” Rand’s experts assert that the acquisition by Tehran of nuclear weapons would above all be intended to deter an attack by hostile powers, presumably including Israel and the United States, rather than for aggressive purposes. “An Iran with nukes will still be a declining power,” they say. “Iran does not have territorial ambitions and does not seek to invade, conquer, or occupy other nations.”How reassuring.Similarly, Paul Pillar, a veteran CIA analyst who served as the National intelligence officer for the Middle East and South Asia, has published a lengthy essay in The Washington Monthly titled “We Can Live With a Nuclear Iran: Fears of a Bomb in Tehran’s Hands Are Overhyped, and a War to Prevent It Would Be a Disaster.”And finally, the leading realist theorist of the past century, Prof. Kenneth N. Waltz of Columbia University’s Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies (who died last week), actually argued in his last published article that Iran shouldget the bomb! It would create “a more durable balance of military power in the Middle East,” he wrote in the establishment journal Foreign Affairs.You could see this coming. Last November, ambassador Pickering showed up in Israel and asked to meet associates (including me) at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies. Pickering wanted our understanding for a “nuanced” and “sophisticated” view of Iran. Iran is emerging as a significant regional and global actor, he said, that must be engaged.What about the use of military force to crush the Iranian nuclear bomb program? Well, Pickering was basically not prepared to countenance the use of American military force against Iran under any circumstances.Military force should be the very last resort taken by the US, Pickering told us, “and probably not at all.” The financial, strategic and diplomatic costs of a military operation against Iran, he said, would be too onerous.Pickering had nothing to say about the long-term strategic costs to the West of not confronting Iran.Needless to say, he got a cold shower from his Israeli interlocutors. We understood what he was doing: Preparing America for accommodation with a nuclear Iran.It’s important to understand that Pickering, Pillar, Kahl and Waltz faithfully represent the views of large segments of the academic, diplomatic and defense establishments in Washington and New York, who don’t see Iran as an oversized threat to America. They view Iran as a rational actor, and are seeking a “Nixonian moment,” in which Washington would seek strategic accommodation with Tehran, as it did with Beijing.One of the only front-ranking Washington policy wonks who has argued that Tehran’s nuclear program should be bombed is Prof. Steven David of Johns Hopkins University (who is on the academic advisory board of the Israeli Begin- Sadat Center). In a powerful essay in this month’s issue ofThe American Interest, he argues that “Any non-casual examination of the mullahs’ writings and sermonizing about Israel and Jews reveals unalloyed anti-Semitism of a very familiar, protogenocidal type…. Even with all its horrendous implications, a military solution is preferable to a nuclear-armed Iran whose leaders are likely one day to find themselves with nothing to lose, and everything to destroy.” Another is former Pentagon adviser Matthew Kroenig who has written that a US strike on Iran “is the least bad option.”For the moment, and at least on record, the administration is sticking by its “dual track approach of rigorous sanctions and serious negotiations.”Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel (who was once a member of the Iran Project and Atlantic Council task forces) reassured The Washington Institute two weeks ago that “President Obama has made clear that our policy is to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, and he has taken no option off the table to ensure that outcome.”But the softer signals and acquiescent music coming from Washington are increasingly hard to miss. The grand climbdown from confronting Iran seems inexorable.
Corrupt leaders often use trial balloons and straw men to push forward with reckless and dangerous policies. And even though they may viscerally understand the (beyond) high stakes poker involved, many are willing to pursue short-term gains – whether financial-related, or to ward off fateful decisions – instead of prudent strategic initiatives for long-term national interests.

Herein lies the main distinction between vacuous, self serving leaders and what qualifies as statesmen. The tragedy of our times is that the likes of Obama Inc. is emblematic of top western leadership. Not a statesman to be found. Hide nor hare.

London’s Islamic-Inspired/Sanctioned Head Chopping; Cameron’s Hideous Response; And Boston’s Jihad, Cause & Effect…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

Strikingly, even the beheading of a soldier in broad daylight won’t stop the dodging, weaving and spinning from British/western authorities. If a volte face does not occur immediately it will become verily impossible for Cameron (other leaders too) to keep his head on straight – no pun intended.

Western leaders have been warned from all angles; from the Islamic barbarians themselves and via alternative media, as we scream about cause (Islam) and effect (jihad by the sword). YET, they are still not paying practical heed to the wreckage from their multi-cultural, psychotic, counter intuitive experimentation. For if this wasn’t the case, how could it be that Cameron (and others) still ! blathers that Islam does not condone said terror, and that Muslims are oh, so appalled by said beheading, even as their co-coreligionists scream “Allahu Akbar” (see video)… blind as bat leaders…bastards to boot – http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/may/22/london-terror-suspects-shout-allahu-akbar-and-mach/. Recklessly and mendaciously they opine, yes, Islam is a  “religion of peace”! How many more heads have to fly off to cause them to ‘fess up? Their experiment failed to the gravest degree imaginable, and they must reverse course. Forthwith.

It goes without saying, certain actions are beyond the pale and head chopping surely qualifies as such. Now far be it from this blog to beat to death the same topic – over and over again – but there is no other option. It is what it is. Don’t blame the messenger.

In light of the west’s craven dhimmitude, is it any wonder that Allah- wielding hackers feel free to ply their jihad – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/10/17/when-is-the-u-s-others-near-bowed-when-israeli-flags-christians-too-are-banned-in-a-city-near-you-addendum-to/. And even in Israel, surely where its leaders have more than enough experience with Islamic barbarians – head choppers & all – they still pine to make “peace”…have they too lost their minds? – http://www.inquisitr.com/671508/the-inquisitr-interviews-adina-kutnicki-the-reality-of-life-for-an-israeli-patriot/. But it is not as if the Ramallah lynch (in 2000) shouldn’t have been a clue, not only to Israel’s leaders, but to western ones in toto – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/02/06/islam-barbarism-literally-airplane-dry-runs-too-addendum-to-islam-blood-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/ .   

And in case it hasn’t been made clear enough, just as in Boston’s jihad, so too were the jihadists in London known to the authorities, yet nothing was done to scoop them up! In fact, these pages alerted the public about the dangers surrounding Boston (and elsewhere), months before urban jihad blew up in their faces – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/08/15/the-muslim-student-association-msa-islamic-student-arm-of-muslim-brotherhoodmuslim-mafia-huma-abedin-board-member-too-what-does-this-meancommentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

So as outraged as this blog was when the Chechens waged jihad through the streets of Boston there was no element of surprise –  https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/04/27/bombers-cambridge-ma-mosque-a-mirror-image-of-us-mosquestied-into-mit-local-us-linking-back-to-brotherhood-mafias-msamsu-student-unions-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/It was to be expected.

In London as in Boston, terrorist-killers were known to security services’
DEBKAfile Special Report May 23, 2013
One of the Woolwich terrorists after murdering British soldier

One of the Woolwich terrorists after murdering British soldier

The two Islamist terrorists who hacked a British soldier to death on a London street Wednesday, May 22, chanting Allahu Akbar, were born in Britain of Nigerian descent and known to British security authorities. Motivated by revenge for Muslem deaths in Afghanistan, they selected as their victim a soldier from the Woolwich barracks who had served there. One of the terrorists was identified as Michael Adebolajo, 28, a convert to Islam and self-styled Muslim preacher from a street stand, from which he handed out leaflets condemning the British government and troops fighting in Muslim lands.

His stand was located in the southeastern London suburb of Woolwich, not far from the Royal Artillery barracks near which he committed his savage murder.
Adelbolajo’s crime was long planned. He spent time watching the soldiers coming and going around the barracks. He may even have singled out his victim from a chance acquaintance.
Thursday, the day after the murder, British anti-terrorist operatives carried out searches at various London addresses which the terrorist had used as a student at Greenwich University.
The British authorities have made no statements about arrests or even the interrogation of either of the two terrorists, who are in separate hospitals recovering from police gunshots.

Neither have they revealed why the accumulation of carving knives, a machete and a firearm in their possession never attracted notice. The police are also extremely cagey about the two men’s friends and contacts. As in the case of the Boston Marathon bombing, the relevant information began seeping out by chance much later.

The extreme savagery of the killing in broad daylight on a busy London street, culminating in a beheading, recalled the fate of Western hostages at the hands of Al Qaeda’s Iraq commander Musab al-Zarqawi in the years between 2004 and 2006. His custom of beheading victims became a hallmark of al Qaeda savagery.
What also stands out about this episode is that the jihadis did not run away, but waved their blood-stained hands in the faces of horrified passersby, boasting: “We swear by Almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you. The only reason we have done this is because Muslims are dying every day. The British soldier is an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!”
The British government held two “Cobra” emergency committee meetings, whose deliberations were kept secret. Its first response to the discovery that this horrific crime was committed by homegrown terrorists was to assign official spokesmen to make as their main theme the drawing of a strong distinction between Islamist terrorism and the large Muslim communities living in most British towns.

Prime Minister David Cameron set the tone in his address to the nation by declaring that nothing in Islam justified this crime and branding the terrorists traitors to Islam.

DEBKAfile reported after the murder Wednesday:

The terrorists drove up to their victim in a car, jumped out and after the murder wandered about in the area, apparently lying in wait for more soldiers to come out of the Royal Artillery barracks 400 meters from the site of their attack.

London police reached the scene after 20 minutes after they were summoned. When the two killers ran towards them brandishing knives and a firearm, police officers shot and injured them. They were taken to separate hospitals and placed under heavy guard in case of attempts to rescue them.
Police sources said later they were treating the incident as a politically-motivated Islamist terror attack without identifying the killers.

In the absence of Prime Minister David Cameron, Home Minister Theresa May summoned the Cobra emergency committee into urgent session. After examining intelligence input, the committee must decide whether the Woolwich outrage was a lone incident or raise the terrorist alert level in London and the rest of the country. Cameron cut short his trip to Paris and returned to London Wednesday night.

How many more will literally be sacrificed on the altar of multi-culturalism, appeasement, dhimmitude and debasement before a full reckoning ensues? It is becoming increasingly clear that a mass (western) uprising is bubbling under the surface and once it explodes, well, the authorities will have no choice but to step back and let it rip. As indicated: they have been warned.

What/Who Was Occupying Obama’s (Missing) Time, As Americans Died In Benghazi? Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

This blog has made no bones about the immoral and depraved behavior of the Commander-in-Chief, and in too many ways to enumerate. Book-worthy. Rest assured, bashing the POTUS has not been a high point of these pages, as it represents a nadir in the glorious history of a once great nation. Tragic.

Nevertheless, it is an “open secret” that he imbibes alcohol to the degree that he can be classified either as a full blown alcoholic or an alcohol abuser…six of one, half a dozen of another. And it’s a subject one can’t blow smoke in this direction, as recognizing the signs is “easy peasy” – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/09/29/alcohol-addiction-its-stranglehold-on-anyone-unfortunate-enough-to-succumb-to-its-lure-its-tentacle-like-effects-on-others-too-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/. In fact, more than a few pics online show the POTUS in a deeply inebriated state. Oh…that recognizable glassy stare…the more often than not liquor-held hand. Cringe-worthy. Deeply disturbing.

The Bamster is also known to enjoy his “blow”, even though he insists it’s a youthful drug dalliance long gone…but the scuttlebutt says otherwise, as he toked while a U.S. Senator too! And when one places the above in sharp relief next to his sexual dalliances, well, then it is “natural” for him to be “incapacitated”, more often than not. Nobody should think this is a whole lot of conspiracy-talk, you just need to go from point A to B and see what secrets shake out.

Besides, this is a man-child who is hedonist to his core, and his continued “down low” adventures are part of his innate lifestyle –  https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/02/21/the-continued-adventures-of-the-down-low-potus-his-previous-body-double-reggie-love-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.

But it is not as if his preferences developed while POTUS. Far from it. His proclivities were known, even when a randy college kid, as was his drug use – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/10/03/the-down-low-potus-and-rev-wrights-guiding-hand-trinity-churchs-many-secrets-stripped-naked-addendum-to-mysterious-deaths-never-far-from-barack-hussein-obama-commentary-by-adina-kutn/So is it any wonder that one or the other, or a combination of both, left him unable to perform his duties as Commander-in-Chief?

Two sources close to the inner circle of the Obama White House have communicated exclusively to RedFlag News that during the night of Benghazi, President Obama was ‘incapacitated’ due to ‘staggering, inapt activities’ between the hours of 1800 and 2300.

In light of the clear culture of intimidation by the Obama Administration, our sources are not in any position to come forward; however, they made clear that if the White House Press Corps and other journalist organizations would aggressively pursue all their ‘available contacts within the POTUS bubble’, the ‘most damaging story in American presidential history’ will advance from those higher up who are itching to blow the whistle.

When the average “Joe Blow” indulges in too many highs or otherwise risky monkey business, the result is generally a busted up relationship, possibly some jail time or a stint in rehab. While the wreckage is personally (and familial-wise) devastating, its effects are not of national – and dare this blog suggest – or global import.

‘CIC Obama MIA records will provide critical answers’

“I just want to know what the answer is.” – Chris Wallace, May 19, 2013

By Douglas J. Hagmann – Northeast Intelligence Network

23 May 2013: Subsequent to a meeting with my primary source inside the intelligence community last week, an individual I refer to as  my “intelligence insider,”  I wrote a column titledThe Benghazi deception. Published on Thursday, May 16, 2013, it concerned Barack Hussein Obama’s location and activities on the night of the Benghazi attack when four Americans were murdered during a preplanned attack against a CIA operations compound. My source was extremely emphatic about this particular issue, stating that the Obama administration will never provide a truthful or detailed answer to this question.

“Why,” I asked, “I mean, what could possibly be so damning about his location and activities during the 18 1/2 hour period in question? He was in the White House, correct?” It was here that there was a long, uncomfortable pause as I waited for my answer.

“The White House is a pretty big place, you know,” stated my source in such a way that made it seem that I thought it to be a small, single family home. “I’m telling you, ‘somebody’ in the press will be asking that question and won’t get an answer,” he stated very emphatically. “Just ask the question,” he said, leaving me to wonder momentarily if I was to ask him. “Write about it, and ask the question. Exactly where was Barack Hussein Obama following his 5:00 meeting in the Oval Office until the next day? Where wasn’t he? It’s almost as if the Wizard of Oz himself waved his magic wand to divert attention away from those lost hours. Nobody is asking the question,” he said to me, almost in a scolding manner.

And so I did. I asked the question, using his exact words in my article published last Thursday. What happened within the next 72 hours should also speak to the authenticity of my source.

Sunday, May 19, 2013

It was exactly three days after my article was published when Fox News Sunday host  Chris Wallace asked Daniel Pfeiffer, Assistant to the President of the United States and Senior Adviser to the President for Strategy and Communications the question about Obama’s activities that night. During the approximate five-minute question and answer session, Mr. Wallace asked Pfeiffer no fewer than eight times where Obama was and what he was doing as events in Benghazi were unfolding.

The following portion of the exchange was excerpted directly from the show video transcriptand illustrates the attempts by Mr. Wallace to get a single, straightforward answer to one simple question (edited for brevity; highlights by this author):

wallace

WALLACE: OK. Let’s turn to Benghazi… Question, what did the president do the rest of that night to pursue Benghazi?

….

WALLACE: But with due respect, you didn’t answer my question. What did the president do that night?

PFEIFFER: He was talking to his national security staff, his National Security Council, the people who keep him up to date about briefings as they happen.

WALLACE: Was he in the Situation Room?

PFEIFFER: He was kept up to date throughout the day.

WALLACE: Do you not know whether he was in the Situation Room?

fnc2

PFEIFFER: I don’t remember what room the president was in on that night. And that’s a largely irrelevant fact.

WALLACE: Well –

WALLACE: Here’s the point, though. The ambassador goes missing, ends up the first ambassador in more than 30 years is killed. Four Americans, including the ambassador, are killed. Dozens of Americans are in jeopardy. The president at 4:00 in the afternoon says to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs to deploy forces. No forces are deployed. Where is he while all this is going on?

PFEIFFER: This has been testified to by the –

WALLACE: Well, no. No one knows where he was, or how he was involved, or who told him there were no forces –

WALLACE: I just want to know what the answer is.

PFEIFFER: The assertions from Republicans here that somehow the president allowed this to happen or didn’t take action is offensive. It is absolutely an offensive premise. And there’s no evidence to support it.

WALLACE: We are just – I’m simply asking a question. Where was he? What did he do? How did he respond? Who told him that you can’t deploy forces, and what was his response to that?

As illustrated by the transcript, Obama’s assistant and communications advisor refused to answer a simple question.

The question stands unanswered: Where was Barack Hussein Obama, who was he with an exactly what was he doing during the 18 1/2 hours when, as Commander-in-Chief, he was Missing in Action (MIA)?

If Obama has nothing to hide, then produce the White House logs, the visitor logs, the related NSC correspondence, and all documents related to his location and activities during this most critical time period in recent American history.

As I wrote in my original article, “[E]xpose that nugget and I suspect the findings will be far more damaging, far more troubling, and exceedingly more alarming than anyone has begun to imagine. It is this mystical missing period of time where many clues exist.

http://www.homelandsecurityus.com/archives/8437

Thus, when the question of his “missing minutes” is finally resolved, answering, “Where Was Obama”? (akin to “Where Is Waldo”), the truth will be so repulsively stunning that he will finally become unmasked – https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/03/30/forensic-profiling-unmasks-the-leader-of-the-free-world-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/. He will be remembered as the most craven POTUS in U.S. history, and that will be his legacy! And America’s eternal shame/stain.

UPDATE: Looks like this blog has some wind to its sails….http://hillbuzz.org/barack-obama-was-high-on-cocaine-during-the-missing-hours-of-the-benghazi-attack-last-september-90072…revealed herein too – “[ Robert “Bobby” Titcombe is a longtime friend of Barack Obama’s from back in his school days in Hawaii.  He is the only friend of Obama’s from his past that is ever mentioned by the press.  Titcombe was arrested for soliciting a prostate prostitute and has made news repeatedly by traveling to Washington, D.C. to deliver “fish and poi” to Obama in the White House.  “Fish and poi” is common Hawaiian slang for “weed and coke”.  In case it’s not clear, the prostitute that Bobby Titcombe was arrested for soliciting was male.  The corrupt, vintage media has been hiding that fact by merely saying “prostitute”, but it was a MALE PROSTITUTE.  Strangely, Obama goes out of his way to visit Titcombe’s house whenever in Hawaii though it’s a logistical and security nightmare for a sitting US President to go there.  What’s happening at Titcombe’s house on those visits that couldn’t happen at the Obama’s Paradise Estates vacation home on their many trips to Hawaii?  Why is the current President of the United States spending SO MUCH TIME with a man who was arrested for soliciting a MALE PROSTITUTE? ]”

The Inquisitr Interviews Adina Kutnicki: The Reality Of Life For An Israeli Patriot

Today, The Inquisitr presents a no holds barred interview with Adina Kutnicki, a respected investigative journalist, op-ed writer, Israeli patriot and an outspoken Zionist who believes in the right of her country to exist and be recognized as the nation of the Jewish people. She has experienced the harsh reality of the conflict in the Middle East and she is not afraid to tell the truth, without all the political doublespeak and nonsense that so many world leaders and so-called experts pour out to the media. Adina is concerned about the survival of Israel as vile Jew hatred raises its despicable voice throughout the world and the calls for another Holocaust grow louder every day.

The Jewish people have maintained a continuous presence in Israel for more than 3200 years and they have been the majority population in Jerusalem since the first recorded census in 1852 CE. Despite thousands of years of Jewish civilization, there are those who would spread the lie that the Jews are European invaders who have no right to live in Israel. They have created a false narrative that claims European Jews exploited the Holocaust to pressure the world into creating Israel; ignoring the fact that Israel existed more than a thousand years before the birth of Mohammad and Jews have been praying “Next Year In Jerusalem” since the Romans burned the Second Temple in 70 CE. They ignore the endless cycle of terrorism and violence against Jews throughout the world and they ignore the refusal of the 56 Islamic nations to recognize Israel as the one Jewish nation.

Sadly, there are Jews in Israel, Europe and the United States who are among the most vocal critics of Israel and they constantly advocate for suicidal, unilateral concessions to the Arab world in the name of peace. The post-Zionist, peace camp in Israel has used millions of dollars donated by hostile foreign governments to fund a destructive media campaign and delegitimize their own nation. Israel is being reduced to pariah status, denied the right to self defense and pressured to make endless concessions to an implacable foe who refuses to even sit down and negotiate.

Adina Kutnicki wages a daily struggle to make sense of the relentless assault on the legitimacy of Israel. We invited her here today to answer our questions and speak her mind about the nation she loves. So let us begin our interview with a proud Zionist and a daughter of Israel, Adina Kutnicki:
Wolff Bachner: Adina, you were born in the United States and then decided to make Aliyah to Israel and become an Israeli citizen. What inspired you to move to Israel and embrace the Zionist dream of rebuilding the ancient Jewish homeland?

Adina Kutnicki: Wolff, thank you for inviting me to The Inquisitr. Hopefully, I will be able to shed some desperately needed light on what it means to be a Zionist, and an outspoken, non-apologetic one at that. To be sure, one does not wake up one morning and decide to uproot oneself – especially from a very comfortable life in the U.S. – and live in Israel.

That being said, having been raised in a home where the rebirth of Zion was seen as a miracle and a continuation of our Jewish legacy, initiated a lifelong love for the land of Israel, particularly Judea and Samaria; the heartland of our Jewish fore-bearers Upon getting married, it was natural to raise children who would develop the same sense of identity and outright pride.

In this regard, it was understood that at some point we, as a family, would make our home in Israel, but not before our sons finished their schooling in the U.S. They both made aliyah at different times during 2007. While the plan was to “follow” them, and in the interim to wind down a thriving corporate tax practice, my beloved husband Frank, z”l (of blessed memory) passed away very suddenly in the beginning of 2008. This meant that I would be making aliyah under much more trying circumstances, to say the least.

Nevertheless, I could think of no better way to honor his memory than to continue with the robust activism I was involved in while living in the U.S. – via op-eds and other measures – now that I have come “home”. He took much pride in every aspect of my efforts, even when it became apparent that “poking the bear” was generating some non-admirers. My work is ongoing, as well as multi-faceted, irrespective of other factors.

Wolff Bachner: How dangerous is life in Israel and how serious is the threat to Israel’s survival from her Arab Neighbors?

Adina Kutnicki: This is a loaded question, simply because on a daily basis life in Israel is just as normal (and routine) as in any other democratic nation, although the constant presence of IDF soldiers throughout its cities (and thankfully so), in tandem with the inspection of ones bags/cars at various venues, is not exactly “normal”. But the U.S. will surely have to adopt some of these measures, particularly in the aftermath of Boston’s urban jihad.

Be that as it may, there is no other democracy as imperiled as Israel, simply by dint of the fact that many world actors (in unison with civil society elitists) continually call for its elimination, albeit some are more circumspect than others. As a matter of record, aside from incessant exhortations from the Iranian Hilter – as he calls for Israel’s total obliteration and he means every word of it – as well as non-stop terror attacks from the PA/Fatah/Hamas junta (Israel’s erstwhile “peace” partners), the fact of the matter is that the region is fully primed for a MEGA explosion, even in juxtaposition to its usual upheavals.

Alas, the current chaos can be traced directly back to Barack HUSSEIN Obama’s indecorous unseating of Hosni Mubarak, Egypt’s strong arm dictator for decades. While hardly a democrat, he understood very well which actors would become unleashed, if the status quo was tampered with. As a result, the much ballyhooed “Arab Spring” turned into an Arab Nightmare, untethering jihadist forces in warp speed. So if blame is to be assigned to the current catastrophe – and it is one – it must start at the Commander-in-Chief’s door, as he shrilly dictated to Mubarak – GO NOW!
Concomitantly, as this is being written, Israel’s northern front with Syria, as well as its border with Lebanon, is a tinderbox. Hezbollah’s terror brigades, in concert with Iranian militia forces, are poised to strike at Israel’s Golan. And with Israel barely the size of some counties in the U.S., let alone relative to its states, the notion that “only” one part of Israel is in the cross hairs is patently and dangerously misguided. Absurd too. Extrapolating therein, it is essential to understand the following: the Golan has been quiet for over forty years, but this is no longer the case. Most significantly, now that Al-Qaeda has entered the fray via Libya’s Benghazigate, the fear which deterred Assad from starting another war with Israel is no longer a factor. Desperate to save his regime, he has openly welcomed Russian and Iranian proxies to fight on his behalf. This has tipped the “balance of regional terror”, and its effects will soon play out on Israel’s borders. The readers should internalize, in the middle of all this chaos the Iranian centrifuges keep spinning, as such, the ensuing conflagration suits them well.

Wolff Bachner: In the West, reality is being re-written and the facts of history are being left in the dust. We are now told that the Middle East Conflict is a war over land that began in 1948 when the UN voted to accept Israel as a member nation and the fighting intensified only after Israel reunited Jerusalem during the 1967 war.

Yet, according to an important Islamic Hadith from Sahih al-Bukhari written in 846 CE and considered second in authenticity only to the Qur’an, Mohammed proclaimed, “The Day of Resurrection will not arrive until the Muslims make war against the Jews and kill them, and until a Jew is hiding behind a rock and tree, and the rock and tree will say: ‘Oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him!” This Hadith has been used since the day it was written more than 1150 years ago as permission from Allah and his Prophet Mohammad to enslave and murder Jews with impunity.

Is the conflict between Israel and the Arab / Muslim world about land or the result of a 1400 year old religious war being waged by Islam against the Jewish people based on the teachings of the Qur’an and the relentless Jew Hate of Islamic doctrine?

Adina Kutnicki: You raise the most significant question of all, and tragically the most misunderstood and misconstrued. But it must first be recognized, from the onset, the answers herein are not merely applicable to Israel, but to the entire west.

The relentless war waged against Israel has absolutely nothing to do with land per se, and this is precisely why every insane concession, gesture and withdrawal offered by Israel’s (peace-obsessed) leaders has not elicited an expected reciprocal peace gesture, but paradoxically incites to additional jihadist behavior. And in a tangible realm it makes sense for Arabs/Muslims to become hyper-aggressive, particularly after each Israeli capitulation counter intuitively whets their insatiable appetites for more of the same. So as a result of the leadership’s desperate attempt to allay international pressure, thus abating another dangling sword, they have become wedded to peace delusions. A double whammy. Never mind the fact that murderous jihad hasn’t ceased within Israel from time immemorial. But logic escapes many of Israel’s “leading lights”, except for a handful. At the top of the list heralding Israel’s “intellectual warriors” stand Dr. Martin Sherman and Professor Paul Eidelberg.

In furtherance to the above question, a core component can be found within a groundbreaking policy paper written by Professor Paul Eidelberg. I had the honor and distinct privilege to participate in its review. Therefore, due to its efficacy, I am providing a link, and it will no doubt answer the heretofore inexplicable: Where is the relentless Jew hatred emanating from? .

Yet the saying, “First the Saturday People, then the Sunday People”, has never been more relevant nor acute, as global jihad swathes across every corner of the world. Essentially, the same religious “holy” war raging against Israel (and by extension to the Jewish people) is meting out against Christians. Their slaughter will continue apace, as long as Islamic overlords hold sway. To wit, it is no longer a question of whether or not there is a clash between civilizations. That ship has sailed. The west is drowning in “infidel” blood, as mandated by Islamic doctrinal Sharia Law.

Wolff Bachner: Who exactly are the Palestinians? Are they native inhabitants of the region, or as many historians have claimed, are they descendants of invading Muslim armies and the families of guest workers brought into the area as cheap labor in the early 20th century by the British to undermine the rebirth of Israel?

Adina Kutnicki: If one truly seeks the historical truth, one should keenly listen to what the Arab leadership enjoin when speaking before their own brothers and sisters, as opposed to the taqiyya (Sharia-derived dissimulation) spewed for western ears. Thus, the following is a sampling, but by no means exhaustive: Fathi Hammad, Hamas’s Minister of the Interior and National Security, had this to say, ” Brothers, half of the Palestinians are Egyptians and the other half are Saudis.” Likewise, Zuheir Muhsin, late member of the Palestinian Liberation Organization’s Executive Council, intoned: ” The existence of a separate Palestinian identity exists only for tactical reasons. The establishment of a Palestinian State is a new tool to continue the fight against Israel.” Similarly, Hussein bin Talal, late King of Jordan, opined,” The appearance of the Palestinian personality comes as an answer to Israel’s claim that Palestine is Jewish.” To be exact, the late, non-lamented Chairman Arafat – the Palestinian godfather of suicide terror, schooled by the KGB, but I digress – was Egyptian-born! Thereby, isn’t it appropriate to posit: Shouldn’t “straight out of the horse’s mouth” proofs be more than enough evidence, to finally put to bed the lies spun on behalf of the Palestinian narrative? Consequently, shouldn’t Israel’s leaders be the first to hammer these historical truths into the world’s consciousness?

  • Israel at 60: What Happened to the Zionist Dream?

Wolff Bachner: Zionism was once the proud hope and dream of millions of exiled Jews. Now, in the revisionist 21st century, people are starting to use the word “Zionist” as a derogatory term and a UN Committee even declared Zionism to be racism.

What exactly is Zionism and why has the world come to look upon Zionism with such contempt?

Adina Kutnicki: Zionism embodies the authentic longing of Jews to return home to Zion. In its essence, it is the Jewish national movement of rebirth and renewal in the historical birthplace of the Jewish people. And as you pointed out at the onset with the ringing words “Next Year In Jerusalem”, Jerusalem is indeed the epicenter of Zion, as is Judea and Samaria. It is for this reason why wresting these Jewish holy areas away from Israel is a central component to Arab/Muslim jihad. To be sure, once this goal is accomplished, the rest of Israel is completely in their sights. Moreover, when a Jewish couple marries under the chuppah, a core emotion is evinced within these glorious words from Psalm 137: ” If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning. If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy…”

In conjunction, Israel stands between globalists who prefer to erase all borders, and it is a state which is indeed nationalist at its root. Adding to the cauldron, tiny Israel is perceived as a festering boil to the billion plus Arabs/Muslims who seek her destruction. So it makes perfect sense, under the above template, for the UN (an irredeemably hostile host for anti-Israel bashing) to equate Zionism to racism. It was designed to evoke apartheid-like images, and tragically it has been wildly successful in its bludgeoning.

Wolff Bachner: As I mentioned in my introduction, there is a terrible conflict between the majority of Jews who support Israel and a well funded, highly organized minority of Jews who have worked over time to delegitimize the state of Israel.

Why would Jews turn against the one safe haven on earth for the Jewish people and stand with her enemies who have sworn to wipe Israel off the face of the earth?

Just how serious of a problem is the Post-Zionist movement in Israel and how are they able to get away with behavior that many Jews feel is simply treasonous?

Adina Kutnicki: First and foremost, the Post-Zionist movement in Israel is replete within every sector where civil society elitists permeate. They burrow deeply inside the political and military hierarchies and their tentacles reach within academia, media, legal, cultural and public diplomacy arenas. Many are leftist ideologues, but some are simply well paid whores, handsomely provided for by various foreign-funded NGO’s, all in order to ply their wares. The New Israel Fund (among others) is a major umbrella front for those who seek to delegitimize Israel as the Jewish national homeland. On the other hand, it is estimated that a very small fraction (approximately 3%) of the Jewish majority public veers to the left. Nevertheless, the majority’s wishes are continually marginalized, and herein lies much of the rancor and push back from nationalist Jews, of which I am immeasurably aligned with.

Adding to the morass, the fact that Israel has yet to adopt a Constitution (Professor Paul Eidelberg, a renowned American-Israeli political scientist cited above – a PhD from the University of Chicago – has drafted/shaped many of Israel’s future Constitutional components, and they are held within the Knesset as place markers) muddies the waters. In word and deed, this is a fatal flaw which allows many offenses – which would otherwise be deemed treasonous – to fly under the radar, despite Israel’s Basic Laws.

As to the mental aberration, why Jews (hailing chiefly from the left) side with sworn enemies, well, this is a question which Dr. Kenneth Levin, a Harvard psychiatrist, as well as a PhD historian from Princeton, answered in his masterpiece; a monumental, epoch feat of scholarship “The Oslo Syndrome: Delusions of a People Under Siege.” To make a long story short (and to save myself from a throbbing headache…this subject irks to no end), a chronically besieged people – and the Jewish people qualify like none other – often end up internalizing the hatred and delude themselves about the malevolent intent of their enemies. The visceral, non-quenching hatred is too onerous to bear, therefore, fantasy becomes blurred with reality. Feeling totally out of control, they invent a fairy tale, not unlike chronically abused children. But this is just its tip, the rest must be gleaned through the book itself. It is an eye opener and jaw dropper.

Wolff Bachner: Are the Ultra Orthodox exerting an improper influence on Israeli politics and do they need to make a greater effort to assimilate to a modern Jewish state?

Do you feel the Ultra Orthodox should be required by law to participate in National service? Should the subsidies that allow some religious Jews to spend a lifetime studying the Torah without working or serving in the military be cut back or eliminated?

Adina Kutnicki: Once again, you expose another red hot button issue, one which I cover in various op-eds and commentaries. Briefly, the issue of improper influence is dependent upon how many arms are twisted (in a metaphorical sense) in order to garner the results desired by a particular party. There are various Ultra Orthodox parties (and don’t get me started on the Arab/leftist parties and their undue influence), but suffice it to say, Shas has been known to “break” a few bones. What is less known is that its top leadership (and Rabbi Ovadia Yosef is really the titular head) veer to the left and are ready to forfeit much of the Jewish patrimony – the so called “settlements” in Judea and Samaria – to gain “peace”. Now, not being a cynical sort, it occurs to me that by hewing to said leftist tilt they are better situated to play ball with those who often hold sway over Israel’s financial handouts.

As to National Service, there are two components to it; IDF trained and general national/community service. Now there shouldn’t be a one size fits all for fulfilling ones national obligations, however, there should be some core guidelines. In other words, those who are physically capable of recruitment into the combat forces must be drafted into one branch or another. But just because my sons are IDF Reservists doesn’t mean that this should be the case across the board. Basically, if one is unable to meet set combat or support service standards, there is an infinite list of national projects which require many helping hands, particularly in a country where war is always around the corner.

As such, it is unthinkable and unseemly (and this goes doubly for the Arab population, one which benefits from all of Israel’s social/educational/medical/welfare services, yet is not mandated to perform National Service…their free ride has to stop too, but IDF recruitment for the Arab sector should be limited to those few who have proven to be loyal citizens) that the Ultra Orthodox continues to receive massive welfare benefits and stipends without contributing to the country in a defined way. This goes for males and females alike.

Nevertheless, the concept of lifetime, subsidized study of Torah is fraught with minefields. In the main, while Israel is unique unto itself in that its basis is derived from its Jewish patrimony, this does not give a mandate to able-bodied citizens to sit and learn all day, while others support their lifestyle. But it is important to differentiate between those who are bench warmers, juxtaposed against men who are true scholars. Because let’s face it, sitting and “learning” all day is often the path of least resistance. Yet individuals whose invaluable scholarship will eventually become the inspiration and knowledge base for future generations must be allowed to continue doing so, and in an honorable way, free of castigation and contempt. And there are qualified ways to test who belongs in this exceptional track. But only students who meet said intellectual rigors should be allowed to receive government stipends. The rest must serve and then head towards (via academic or technical/vocational tracks) gainful employment. Most inherently, Orthodox Judaism encourages a meaningful balance between Torah study and work, and it is termed “Torah V’madah.” Simple as that.

Wolff Bachner: In your own writing, you have been quite outspoken about the Israeli government’s abusive treatment of the Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria (Gaza and the West Bank). They were encouraged by Israel’s leaders to move into the territories after 1967 and build entire communities, but since 2005 they have been uprooted time and time again by the order of the Israeli government.

What is the legal status of Judea and Samaria? Wasn’t the land promised to Israel in 1924 under the San Remo doctrine, which is considered irrevocable international law under the UN’s founding charter? Isn’t Judea and Samaria actually Jewish land and don’t Israelis have the right to settle in these areas?

Why are Israeli leaders treating their own citizens which such brutality and contempt, as we have seen over and over in the gruesome videos of Israeli soldiers and police viciously assaulting Jewish settlers and destroying their homes with tanks and bulldozers?

Adina Kutnicki: Wolff, you keep hitting them out of the ballpark. Herein lies another lightning rod question which requires much needed edification (and disinfectant) for the general public.

The legal status of Judea and Samaria is currently “disputed” territories, even after Israel recaptured its (San Remo codified) heartland from an annihilatory waged war in 1967. Besides, whatever happened to “the victor goes the spoils” ? Regardless,”occupied” territories has become the accepted lexicon and tragically Israel’s left keeps trotting out the “occupation”, as if it is a truth derived from Sinai. Adding to the crux of the matter, it is absolutely, irrefutably the legal case that San Remo bestowed Palestine to the Jewish people. San Remo bases itself on Article 22 of the League of Nations, as such, ” a sacred trust of civilization” was declared and this Mandate created a Jewish national home in Palestine (incidentally, Palestine is the pejorative name given to Judea by the Roman Emperor Hadrian, over 2,000 years ago, as a reminder of the Philistines, an ancient enemy of the Jewish people). Even more so, the following clause was significantly added: “Whereas recognition has thereby been given to the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country.” The legal case is closed, or so it would seem. But when it comes to Jewish title to their historical, legal, biblical birthright, nothing is as it should be. Up is down and wrong is right. Is it any wonder that evil is now reconstituted as good? For a complete education on the subject I refer the readers to Howard Grief’s (an eminent international legal expert) tour de force ” The Legal Foundation and Borders of Israel Under International Law.” What a fountain of (legal) truth.

As to Israel’s leaders…where to begin? A good place to commence is through a basic understanding of Israel’s political system – an (un)holy mess. In this vein, I penned an op-ed at American Thinker (reprinted at The Jewish Press) entitled ” The Paradox of Israeli Politics: Vote Right, Get Left.” To be precise, due to this glaring paradox, whereby the majority public elects a generally right wing leadership, citizens find themselves governed from the left. The reasons are manifestly beyond the scope of this forum, but a simple google search will direct interested readers to the aforementioned article.

In any case, this dysfunction explains how PM Sharon (and others have followed suit) was able to defy the will of the majority electorate who carried him to victory. Hence, he ordered the unilateral “disengagement” from Gush Katif (aka Gaza) and the northern Shomron, as he directed Israel’s citizen soldiers to bulldoze thriving Jewish communities, all the while over 8,600 lawful, taxpaying citizens were expelled – almost as if by fiat – even defying a referendum in the process. Orwellian. If any other western leadership behaved in such a brutish, non-democratic manner towards its Jewish citizens, well, all hell would have broken loose. Not to be lost in the discussion, had PM Sharon executed the same wholesale destruction towards its Arab citizens, then let’s just say that hell on earth would be more than an apt description. And in memory of the 6th year of said expulsion, another op-ed (“The Bitter Fruits of Disengagement“, August 19, 2011) was penned. It was featured at the Jewish Press and several other media outlets.

The above political pitfalls covers the “how” part of the question, and the “why” segment falls under the general purview of appeasement syndromes, not unlike Stockholm Syndrome. But as related above, its genesis lies in the Oslo “peace” process, thus, the “Oslo Syndrome” is highly applicable.

Wolff Bachner: The Netanyahu government seems dedicated to persecuting Israeli Jews who are Nationalists and believe in a strong Israel. Zionist patriots are prosecuted for hate speech if they say a word that is critical of Palestinians or Israeli officials and Rabbis are arrested for quoting Torah. Jewish homes in Israel proper are being destroyed by the Israeli authorities while Arabs squat and build with impunity on Jewish owned land. Israeli NGO’s accept millions of dollars of foreign money from nations and organizations that are openly hostile to Israel and use the money to defame Israel in the eyes of the world and endanger the lives of Israelis.

No other nation on the planet would tolerate hostile foreign governments undermining their national sovereignty and allow their citizens to accept money from those governments to attack the policies of their own country. Has the government of Israel lost its mind and its Jewish soul?

Is it now a crime in Israel to stand up for your country in the face of endless Muslim / Arab aggression and demand the government stop compromising with people who want to commit genocide against the Jewish people?

Adina Kutnicki: The Netanyahu government is emblematic of the disparate treatment meted out towards nationalist Jews, in contrast to kid glove treatment reserved for leftists and Arabists. It is entirely befuddling to those who are convinced that Israel has a nationalist leadership. While there are nationalists within, the overall policy is far from “right wing”. The left has a stranglehold on the justice/court system (Tzipi Livni, the current AG, is an avowed leftist), and its state prosecutors are beyond the pale. They haven’t met a Jewish nationalist who is not “guilty” and in need of “re-education”. Again, much of this lies within the scope of Israel’s broken parliamentary system of governance, whereby MK’s are not held accountable, hence, the lack of responsibility to a particular constituency.

As a matter of record, on behalf of my work with HONENU Legal Defense Organization – an Israeli non-profit designated to defend Israeli soldiers and citizens, free of charge, from legal traps which ensnare “settlers” and those who support their efforts – a series of investigations ensued. A centerpiece expose’ detailed a stunning indictment of Israel’s General Security Service (GSS), and as a reference point, its equivalent arm in the U.S. is the FBI. Instead of utilizing its frontal assault against a dangerous Arab fifth column, both inside the “green line” and in Judea and Samaria, it expends huge resources to entrap “settlers’, in the expectation that they will give up their defense of the heartland and just go “home” within Israel proper. Good luck with that. “Administrative Detention Orders Against Jewish Nationalists” (October 2011) delineates said internal struggle. Aside from its posting at HONENU, it can be found at the Freeman Center For Strategic Studies/The Freeman Blog. It is not easily digestible, so I apologize in advance for any ensuing heartburn.

I will leave it up to the readers to make their own determination, as to whether the leadership has lost its mind, its Jewish soul or both. It’s not a hard calculus to discern.

Wolff Bachner: On the matter of Jerusalem, I can not imagine a more terrible fate for the Jewish people, other than another Holocaust, than to see Jerusalem divided again. Not only would it cut the heart out of the Jewish spirit, but it would divide the tiny nation of Israel across the middle into two smaller, indefensible sections. Is it truly possible that Israel would actually give up half of Jerusalem to become the capital of Palestine?

Adina Kutnicki: As to Jerusalem, the heart and soul of Zion (in the same realm as Judea and Samaria), whither it goes, so too does the fate of Israel, as well as the Jewish people. It is inconceivable that Israel would survive without Jerusalem intact, and dare I suggest, there would be little reason left for its existence, sans an intact eternal capital. It is one tragedy if enemies capture it from Jewish hands, but it is a wholly different paradigm if Israel’s leaders surrender it on their own. So the question still hangs: Are Israel’s leaders capable of dividing holy Zion? One would hope and pray this is not the case, but the jury is still out. Personally, I would put nothing past some of the leadership and they bear close scrutiny. Very close.

Wolff Bachner: From a Washington Post editorial, (May 8, 2001) – “Syrian President Bashar Assad on Saturday [May 5, 2001] offered a vivid, if vile, demonstration of why he and his government are unworthy of respect or good relations with the United States or any other democratic country. Greeting Pope John Paul II in Damascus, Mr. Assad launched an attack on Jews that may rank as the most ignorant and crude speech delivered before the pope in his two decades of travel around the world. Comparing the suffering of the Palestinians to that of Jesus Christ, Mr. Assad said that the Jews ‘tried to kill the principles of all religions with the same mentality in which they betrayed Jesus Christ and the same way they tried to betray and kill the Prophet Muhammad.’ With that libel, the Syrian president stained both his country and the pope….”

Respected political columnist Richard Cohen wrote more than a decade ago, “The Arab world is the last bastion of unbridled, unashamed, unhidden and unbelievable anti-Semitism. Hitlerian myths get published in the popular press as incontrovertible truths. The Holocaust either gets minimized or denied….How the Arab world will ever come to terms with Israel when Israelis are portrayed as the devil incarnate is hard to figure out.”

Adina Kutnicki: In a nutshell – and this short answer is hardly meant to minimize the grave import and impact of Arab/Muslim anti-semitism – unless Islam undergoes a complete and total reformation, its adherents will never (until time immemorial) accept Jews as other than pigs, apes and monkeys, let alone the historical, legal and biblical heirs to Zion. This is the G-d’s honest truth. As is said, and that is that.

Israel’s Northern Front PRIMED For Explosion: Who Lit The Match?…Commentary By Adina Kutnicki

While it is mandatory to remain hyper vigilant regarding the ever primed jihadists at Israel’s borders, the fact of the matter is that one main antagonist has been relatively dormant, at least for over 40 years. To be sure, Syria is a puppet of the Iranian regime and also a major conduit for transfer of lethal weaponry headed for Hezbollah via its border crossings.

HOWEVER – and this was key – the reason why the northern Golan has been peaceful and tame had everything to do with Assad’s utter terror of Israel’s vaunted IAF, and the damage accrued if provoked. No longer. And it is not that the IAF/IDF is less formidable. To the contrary. But it is the case, once Assad’s inner cage became a target, the deterrent factor got chucked by the wayside. How so? Fighting to stay in power left the door open for Russia to become, once again, a key Middle East power broker, as the Islamist-in-Chief “led from behind”. In tandem, a pouring in of Iranian backed terror forces became politically feasible and absolutely necessary for Assad to cling to power.

In actuality, if one carefully follows point A to point B, then the culprit who lit the match becomes the Pyromaniac-in-Chief. Paradoxically, while his illegal war in Libya (via Samantha Powers and her “R2P” –  “Well, it turns out, hiding in plain sight under the cooked up, foreign policy dictum of Samantha Powers and her R2P – ‘Responsibility to Protect’ – is a whole lot of Islamic mischief, and a rearranging of the region’s chessboard. Mind you, this blogger knew…but never mind, the theory is heralded as a truly humane one; it is the “responsibility” of the world’s super power to save the innocents, and those who are seeking liberty. Holier than thou bull sh-t…blah…blah.

As is said, the proof is in the pudding, so to speak. In this regard, a chemical alert was blared from these pages, as Al Qaeda got into the mix –  https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/03/27/chemical-alert-syrian-rebels-more-dangerous-than-assads-thugs-al-qaedasalafists-in-the-forefront-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/… fighting for hegemony with Assad’s goons and assorted surrogates.

Thus, is it any wonder that the Mid East is primed to explode, starting on Israel’s northern borders, a jumping off point to kick up a firestorm? –  https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/04/30/the-mid-east-firestorm-primed-to-explode-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/

‘After the al Qusayr victory, Syria and Hizballah plan war on Israel’

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report May 20, 2013

Syria and Hizballah, flushed with the success of breaking the rebel hold on the strategic town of al Qusayr, Sunday, May 19, are making no secret of their plans for the “great confrontation,” i.e. military confrontaiton with  Israel after they win the Syrian civil war.  Israel’s military leaders are taking with the utmost seriousness the words of Ibrahim al-Amin, editor of the Hizballah organ Al Akhbar, and a close buddy of Syrian president Bashar Assad, who wrote Monday:
“The rope is taut. It is taut to the limit. Anyone at either end [Israel at one end, Syrian and Hizballah, at the other] need only flex a finger and it will break, and the great confrontation will take place. This is neither a threat, nor an exaggeration or interpretation. This is the situation on the enemy’s northern front. Now means today; it means this hour,” al-Amin wrote.
Israeli intelligence experts have no doubt that the writer penned those words at the behest of his master, Hizballah’s Hassan Nasrallah, and Bashar Assad.
Israeli spokesmen and media tried hard Monday to play down the scale of the joint force’s success in capturing al-Qusayr, which sits on Syria’s main road to Lebanon and the Damascus high road to the Mediterranean, by harping on the heavy battle losses sustained by Hizballah – 50 dead and many more gravely injured.

But these losses do not detract from the Iranian Lebanese proxy’s pivotal role in the Syrian rebels’ resounding defeat and the Syrian army’s decisive victory.

It cannot be denied that the fateful setback suffered by the Syrian rebels resulted from their being abandoned to their fate at the most critical moment of their uprising by their backers, the US, Turkey, Jordan and the Arab Gulf emirates.

Syrian and Hizballah forces are getting ready to turn east for their next major offensive, the destruction of rebel strongholds in Homs and its outlying villages. Our military sources report the Syrian army has deployed its 14th Division and an expanded unit of self-propelled artillery for this joint effort. Rebel spokesmen warn that a massacre is in store.

But it is what it is. Israel’s leaders, as delusional as they often are, are clearly taking the newly hyped Syrian/Hezbollah (read: Iranian) threat at face value. Rest assured, Jerusalem will act accordingly, of this no one should have any doubt. 

Yet no one should be shocked if non-conventional weapons enter the mix via chemical warfare, as well as Israel’s plans to utilize their Dolphin subs, for whatever is required. This blog is warning the west: readers would do well to remember who set the region alight, even though Iran is always ready to pounce. But it doesn’t obviate/abrogate the Islamist-in-Chief’s footprints- https://adinakutnicki.com/2013/03/10/a-hellfire-unleashed-by-barack-hussein-obama-smack-on-israels-borders-beyond-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/!

UPDATE: Israeli home defense drill to focus on missile and chemical threats

DEBKAfile May 21, 2013

Home Defense Minister Gilead Erdan disclosed Tuesday that the annual “Steadfast Home Front – 1” exercise starting next Sunday will postulate equal risks to the military and home fronts. He said this eventuality was only now a question of time.

Addressing a news conference, the minister said the exercise would stage scenarios of large population centers and strategic facilities under attack from thousands of missiles from Syria, Lebanon and the Gaza Strip. Chemical strikes will also be rehearsed. Maj.Gen. Eyal Eisenberg, head of the IDF Home Front Command, said a chemical strike would challenge the IDF’s command and control capacity. The IDF is keeping a close watch on events in Syria from the northern border, he said. “We wouldn’t be practicing a massive missile war scenario unless we believed the enemy had the operational capability to attack Israel’s civilian population.
