One measure of a person’s sanity – as well as their rationality – is how much stock they take in their survival (as well as that of their loved ones), even if the odds are not in their favor.
So, what conclusions can be drawn about an otherwise highly intelligent (successful too, for the most part) group of people who have been persecuted more times than most folks want to think about – with nary a time in history when their persecution wasn’t the “norm” – yet their main litmus test for leadership depends upon which candidate supports abortion?
Never mind that abortion is an extraordinarily hot button issue, fraught with more minefields than can possibly be counted in any given war-torn country, and it will remain this way long after most of us are dead and buried.
And despite the fact that the actual “science is clear that human life begins at conception when a new human being is formed; and in Roe v Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court decided it could not ‘resolve the difficult question of when life begins’ – and on the basis of the unresolved question, declared a new ‘right to abortion’ based on a ‘right to privacy’ “- nevertheless, within their ‘holier than thou’ sphere, the science is not nearly enough !
Talk about twisting the law – and ones ideological paragons – into prescribed (political) knots !
Yet still, place all the above logic (even the twisted part) to the side, and we are reflexively faced with leftist Jews who worship the “right” to abortion, above and beyond other compelling life and death issues. Inconceivably, many of these abortion-obsessed Jews “earn like Episcopalians, and vote like Puerto Ricans” – no offense to my Hispanic/Spanish friends !
Milton Himmelfarb, a trenchant sociographer of the American Jewish community knew his terrain. He was spot on….and his observations are as apt today, as they were when initially observed decades ago.
As always, Daniel Greenfield aka Sultan Knish cuts to the heart of the matter, performing the heavy lifting for many. In ‘Suicide As A Jewish Value’ he dissects their underbelly, leaving many leftist Jews exposed as the (ideological) fools/tools that they are.
“A month ago, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz sat down with the host of a Jewish television channel and could not name any reason for Jews to vote for Obama except for his support for abortion. Which is to say that the favorite muppet of the Democratic Party could not think of any reason to support B.O. except a mutual commitment that fewer Jews be born.”
“It is a little-known fact that Margaret Sanger, that pioneer of eugenic solutions to “racial, political, and social problems”, began by targeting Jews, opening her first center in Brownsville, Brooklyn, complete with Yiddish and Italian flyers, aiming for the two immigrant groups whose high reproduction rates were considered a social problem.”
“Abortion as a Liberal Jewish value has been a stunning success. In New York City, where Sanger first set up shop, 74 percent of all Jewish children are members of the traditionalist Orthodox religious group. Liberal Jews are already panicking over the prospect of a future Jewish population in New York City that is staunchly conservative and religious.”
“A recent survey of New York City Jews also shows a nearly even split between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama. 46 percent of New York Jews are planning to vote against Obama, and a majority of New York City Jews think that Romney would be better at fixing the economy than B.O. But it is only to be expected that the group for whom abortion isn’t a Jewish value would come to outnumber the group for whom abortion is a Jewish value.”
“The problem with values is that you have to live with their consequences. When your values dictate that terrorists deserve all the protections of the civilian justice system, then you have to be ready to live with the explosions. If your values dictate minimal population growth, then you have to accept the consequences of extinction. Values that are contrary to survival carry their own natural cost. And when your values are at odds with your interests, then your values might as well be an open window, a loaded revolver or a dose of strychnine.”
“Liberal Jews like to talk about Jewish values rather than Jewish interests, because their values are incompatible with Jewish interests– even as a matter of simple survival. The usual liberal grab bag of values that are represented by the Jewish hand puppets of liberalism, like Wasserman-Schultz, aren’t just alien, they threaten the basic survival of the Jewish People.”
“When asked to justify what interests the Democratic Party and American Jews have in common, the Jewish liberal dives into a copy of the New York Times and comes up with illegal immigration, abortion, gay rights and support for peace in the Middle East.”
“That list of Liberal Jewish values not only fails to align with a single Jewish interest, but each of them threatens Jewish interests… that is if survival is to be considered a Jewish interest.”
“Peace in the Middle East means aborting Israel, dissecting it into small pieces and repeating the process until there is no country left. It’s another case of liberal Jews trying to do to Israel what they have already done to themselves. To believe that pressuring Israel into making a non-stop roll of concessions to Muslim terrorists is a Jewish value is to believe that suicide is a Jewish value.”
“Illegal immigration, a cause that virtually every major Jewish organization has signed on to, means the mass migration of Mexicans to the United States. The ADL’s own survey shows that nearly half of foreign-born Latinos rate as strongly Anti-Semitic, over three times the rate of white Americans. (Bad news for the glorious civil rights alliance; the ADL’s strongly antisemitic ratings are 12 percent for white Americans, 35 percent for African-Americans and 44 percent for foreign-born Latinos.) The only way to make sense of this is that Liberal Jewish groups believe that increasing Anti-Semitism in America is actually a Jewish value.”
“But liberals of all creeds need more Mexican illegal aliens and immigrants from all across the Third World to compensate for the good work of Sanger. Liberal Christians fear the reproduction rates of Conservative Christians as Liberal Jews fear the reproduction rates of Orthodox Jews. The only way out of the demographic race is to import “ringers” who will have the children that they won’t. The new eugenics is political eugenics. Birth control is no longer for the people that Sanger considered the “unfit”, they’re valued now for their reproductive rates which help the “fit” stay in power.”
“Growing Anti-Semitism is a small price to pay for the Liberal values of having people like Debbie Wasserman-Schultz sitting in Congress instead of selling tie-dyed t-shirts and hand-painted seashell bongs in a flea market. And like all the wages of liberalism, the price for it isn’t paid by the people on top, but by those at the bottom. Those Jews living next to the 44 percent in New York City or on farms in the West Bank within firing range of their Palestinian Muslim peace partners. The Jews whom Sanger and Schultz consider “unfit”.
An aching (Jewish) heart.
Oftentimes popular truisms are right on the mark. As is said, “if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and has feathers like a duck…it’s very likely to be a duck”.
All together now… “if Barack Hussein Obama acts like a socialist/communist/Marxist/Islamist sympathizer, surrounds himself with said fellow travelers, implements their constructs and destroys western ones, what else can he be, other than one of them?”.
Henceforth, refer to the above as – “Adina Kutnicki’s truism”.
Truthfully, other than those who are willfully blind, or in clinical comas, there should be little debate as to where Barack Hussein Obama is headed, if he (heaven forbid) secures a second term, irrespective of whether or not one is in agreement with said plans. In pure practical terms, his concrete actions attest to his end game.
Therefore, the pressing question before lovers of liberty is – what main mechanisms does he intend to utilize to effectuate his oft-promised transformation, reverting to his campaign in 2008 ? Answer this basic question, and the planned deconstruction (though it can never be an exact art/science) falls into place.
Some background is in order.
Firstly, years before he came onto the political scene, radical revolutionaries have been laying the groundwork. They operated both riotously and stealthily, depending on the task at hand. Much of the planning was orchestrated from radical “think tanks” and grassroots, community organizing/agitating nerve centers, many of whom attached themselves (like leeches) to union leadership. They are still sucking (membership’s) blood.
The current radicals, enjoying total control over US nerve centers, have been causing mayhem all over America, manufacturing crisis after crisis for many decades. They went from college-aged, indoctrinated shock troops, to suit and tie “respectable” power players. Therein lies the fault-lines.
Without a scintilla of a doubt, many of yesteryear’s core radicals are entrenched in the most powerful positions imaginable, inside and outside government. Their previous mission (still ongoing) was to insidiously soften up each generation to the “collective” mindset, consequently, indoctrinating them to the “evils of capitalism”.
Is it any wonder that Obama & gangsters publicly pummel capitalism, never mind the fact that they suckle at its breast to keep their grip on power? Is it any wonder that the most infamous domestic terrorist duo – Ayers & Dohrn – became teachers? Similarly, many of their cadre followed suit, teaching revisionist history, complemented by bastardized language (doublespeak) as core components of their “teaching”.
The above piece of the revolutionary puzzle is intrinsic to internalize, simply because it bespeaks where their absolute focus lies – the kiddies. Once one captures the “hearts and minds” of several American generations, anything and everything is possible. They are brainwashed from the moment they enter pre-school, at least in the public school realm. Yes, they are.This is a fact.
In concert, by (mentally) moving generations away from capitalist ethos, it allows revolutionary radicals to slowly destroy one capitalist sector after another. In effect, the government is then positioned to wrest control from private industries. Sound familiar?
Their calculus is, if capitalism is evil, why in the world would the masses rise up? And, if the brainwashing hadn’t taken place (you gotta hand it to them, they are evil geniuses) such blatant power grabs would normally be seen for what they – totalitarianism.
Back to Barack Hussein Obama’s dual targets – the rest of what is left of a free economy, as well as incremental gun control, thus, leading to a total ban on private ownership.
Second Amendment? What’s that? And who the hell cares anyway?
Economically speaking, get a load of some elaborated tidbits here – ‘Obama’s Second-Term Plans For Your Paycheck Exposed’ , a subject this blogger touched upon in a previous commentary – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/08/02/revealed-the-second-term-plans-of-an-obama-presidency-nothing-short-of-a-national-nightmare-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/.
“An explosive book released today documents how progressive organizations behind White House policy have crafted specific, second-term plans for the federal government to determine the “value” of individual jobs in the private sector instead of allowing employers to pay what they want.”
“Other second term “economic fairness” plans include concentrating more power with the federal government to rectify “bias” and “discrimination” in the workforce regarding salaries for “equivalent” – but not necessarily equal – jobs in the private sector.”
“This is in addition to the enactment of a “living wage” that would force all employers to increase the salaries of the nation’s workers to meet “basic needs” such as housing, food, utilities, transportation, health care and recreation……Obama has made “economic fairness” the centerpiece of his second term agenda. The president’s January 2012 State of the Union address called for “equal pay for equal work.” – the rest can be found here – http://www.wnd.com/2012/08/obamas-2nd-term-plans-for-your-paycheck-exposed/.
Green-wise, this is the blueprint via ‘Solyndra Revelations Show It’s Time To Close the “Bank of Washington” –
“”The Bank of Washington continues to help us!” bragged Solyndra CEO Chris Gronet in emails released last week.”
“An investigation by the House Energy and Commerce Committee revealed that Solyndra—the solar company that went under, taking more than $600 million in taxpayer funds with it—wasn’t ever supposed to be an independent business. It was built to rely on the taxpayers.”
“Getting business from Uncle Sam is a principal element of Solyndra’s channel strategy,” wrote Tom Baruch, founder of Solyndra investor CEMA Capital, in an August 10, 2010 email” – http://mail.aol.com/36786-111/aol-6/en-us/Suite.aspx.
Onto phase two – gun control .
Canada Free Press via ‘Disarming America’ weaves the tale –
“Anyone who cannot see how things are lining up to implement broad, sweeping changes to the freedom and liberty of every American citizen is either blissfully ignorant or a party to the agenda. One has to look no further than the numerous freedom limiting executive orders issued by Obama, the new lexicons of the Department of Homeland Security, and the militarization of municipal police agencies to understand that the enemy of the state is being redefined according to a political agenda dedicated to the destruction of our nation and her people.”
“It is important to connect the proverbial dots and not be impaired by the myopic rants of those who are either oblivious to the larger agenda, or succumb to the emotional pleadings of the “well intentioned.” Things are often not as they appear, especially when one looks at the methods such incidents serve to institute the fundamental changes desired by Obama and his globalist associates. The agenda to disarm Americans is an important step in the fundamental transformation of America. It is but one step, albeit a major one, that has always existed, needing just the right time and the correct set of circumstances to accomplish.”
“Despite denials, you can be assured that yesterday’s shooting will be used to advance the agenda of “gun control.” It will begin with demands for “reasonable” controls over all new sales of semi-automatic weapons, bulk gun purchases, or magazines with a capacity greater than an arbitrary number determined by gun control advocates inside of the beltway. It will likely enjoy bipartisan support, and be advanced by an accommodating and complicit media. In the wake of the temporarily stalled United Nations Arms Trade Treaty, the fact that the killings took place at a Sikh Temple will not be lost as well.”
“From there, the tenuous grasp Americans have on our Second Amendment rights will be within reach by those intent to disarm us. Unless we open our eyes to what is taking place right under our collective noses, we will always remain one Supreme Court justice vote, one executive order, or one piece of “reasonable” legislation away from being unable to protect ourselves from further tyranny at the hands of our own government. Once there, our ability to maintain all of our other freedoms, including the freedom of speech, will be lost.” – http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/48586.
A key visual aid can be seen here – ‘Watch What Happens When A Nation Bans Guns’ – http://www.westernjournalism.com/watch-what-happens-when-a-nation-bans-guns/
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms… disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes… Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.”~Thomas Jefferson” .
Know this. Those who grasp too tightly to the reins of power are loathe to give them up.
Therefore, a disarmed citizenry is a controllable citizenry. So, what are the possibilities that radical revolutionaries will allow the citizens to bear their (lawful) arms, regardless of their Constitutional right to do so?
Try this truism on for size – ‘I’ll give you my gun when you take it from my cold, dead hands’.
Attributed to…guess who… the National Rifle Association.
UPDATE: Bringing Down America is their main goal – http://www.americanthinker.com/2013/04/bringing_down_america_a_review.html
In light of all the financial woes besetting average Americans, and with Islamists creeping closer to US power centers, one would think that “progressive” mouth pieces would have their plates full. And let us dare not forget their (purposeful) stirring of the racial pot.
Wherever do they find time for all this mischief-making ? Well, apparently it’s their full time mission – sort of their messianic calling. Paradoxically, they detest organized religion, unless it belongs to the throat slitters and head choppers. What a conundrum. So, do we classify them as masochists, sadists or just plain pyromaniacs?
Will get back to you on the diagnosis.
Either way, they have become embroiled in a national chicken controversy, penning themselves into an (intolerant) corner like the chicken-sh-ts they are.
Have we landed in Orwell’s universe, whereby ‘eating here or there’ has become a “progressive/liberal/tolerant” rallying cry? Yup.
Their new litmus test – for “tolerance”, of course – is none other than Chick-fil-A. If the “progressive” degenerates were not deadly serious in their quest, the notion of attacking a chicken business would be laughable. After all, is the restaurant chain guilty of a capital crime, in light of massive calls – from their shock troops – to boycott the chain? In a pig’s eye.
But, they are “guilty” of a cardinal sin, at least in the recesses of the dark souls of “progressive” fascists. Basically, the chain’s owners refuse to cow tow to their radical edicts – accept the re-definition of “marriage”, or we will destroy your business. This brings the Orwellian defined usage of ‘tolerance’ to a level unseen previously, and straight into the stratosphere.
Say what? Are the purveyors of “tolerance” behaving like totalitarian dictators, forcing a family business to toe their radical line? Looks like it. Well, most conservative types don’t like being threatened, particularly in middle America. You know, the “bitter clinger” sort of folks.
On the other hand, there are some squeamish conservatives who hate to stand up and fight. They would rather most unpleasantness blow right over their heads, thereby, standing down in the process.
Uh uh…no way. Not nice at all. They would do well to get with the conservative program, and stop being chicken – no pun intended!
In ‘We Should Have Kept Our Heads Down Rather Than Support Chick-fil-A’ some self described conservatives have brought cowardice to a new level, tarring the rest of us in the process. Read for yourselves –
“Over the past day, I’ve seen more than a few discussions amongst Christians that we should not have done the Chick-fil-A event on Wednesday. After they ignore, reject, or exclude the free speech element of the event — which I will copy in order to counter their arguments — they have two lines of reasoning. First, this is Dan Cathy’s personal problem and therefore not “a hill to die on.” Second, the left feels like we hate them, and we are wrong to do anything that makes them feel that way. Whether we actually hate them is not the salient point. Both seem to think along the lines of one commentator, that this is a time to “keep our heads down” and practice our faith quietly.”
“Keep our heads down. I don’t recall such instructions anywhere in the Bible. I recall that we are to loudly proclaim our faith, that we are to offer succor to fellow Christians persecuted for our faith, and that we are to bear one another’s burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ. As if my resolve to never keep my head down needed a boost, I received the “heads down” comment in my inbox as I walked out of my second viewing of The Dark Knight Rises, which is not exactly a modern morality tale about the “virtue” of keeping one’s head down.”
“A prominent Christan has been ridiculed and his company banned from certain public venues because of his Christian values. He needs our support, and we are called to give it. The left may feel hatred from our actions, but whether we actually hate is the paramount question. We are judged both by God and by criminal courts of law on our actual intent, not by someone’s perception of our intent. Furthermore, is this not all backward?”
“They ridicule us, threaten us, heckle us. On Wednesday, they sent us many wishes that we would choke and die on our chicken sandwiches. What about the hate that we feel from those actions? Are we supposed to keep our heads down in the face of actual hatred because others feel hatred when we defend ourselves? What actions would society allow of Christians under these circumstances?”
“I’ve seen keep-our-heads-down suggestions that we should merely buy chicken without fanfare and give it to charity. That wouldn’t offend anyone, correct? Actually, it was just such a donation that put Chick-fil-A in the culture crosshairs. From Michelle Malkin back in February 2011:
Over the past month, several progressive activist blogs have waged an ugly war against Chick-Fil-A. The company’s alleged atrocity: One of its independent outlets in Pennsylvania donated some sandwiches and brownies to a marriage seminar run by the Pennsylvania Family Institute, which happens to oppose same-sex marriage.
“Finally, we should be given credit for the nature of our protests, which typically support or champion an idea. But it doesn’t appear that society even notices the divide between the nature and goals of various protests.” The rest of the link is here – http://pjmedia.com/lifestyle/2012/08/04/we-should-have-kept-our-heads-down-rather-than-support-chick-fil-a/2/.
The above brings “turning the other cheek” to a new level. Thankfully, the writer takes the chicken little’s to task. Job well done.
On the other side of the conservative spectrum are people after my own heart, whether Christian or Jewish.
‘Liberal Tyranny & The Cluck Heard ‘Round The World’ makes mincemeat out of those who think they can terrorize traditional, family values people into submission. They will never cease trying, but they won’t succeed. And, here’s why –
“Writer Sinclair Lewis is credited with saying, “When fascism comes to America, it will come wrapped in the flag and waving a cross.”
“Close, but not quite. Truth is, fascism has come to America; but it’s wrapped in a rainbow flag and waving, well, let’s just say it sure ain’t waving a cross. With its latest wave of scorched-earth malfeasance, the radical left has awakened freedom-loving America to this reality.”
“Liberals learned a hard lesson on Wednesday. While the generally silent majority was showing exuberant support for free speech, the institution of true marriage and Chick-fil-A, “progressives” were gorging themselves on crow sandwiches doused in bitter hate. While Chick-fil-A was eating at liberals, millions of God-fearing Americans were eating at Chick-fil-A.”
“It was glorious. Those who would silence free speech were shouted down through an unprecedented – dare I say miraculous – show of unity in the body of Christ. Millions of God-fearing Americans took part in the “buy-cott” as Chick-fil-A’s cup runneth over.”
“It was a beautiful thing to behold. It made you proud to be an American. Most of the characteristically cocky “progressive” blogs and “news” sites observed radio silence as left-wing elitists – media, activists, politicos and pundits – sat in stunned disbelief.”
“Their wrongheaded Chick-fil-A boycott had backfired catastrophically.Quite troubling, however, was when this predictable “progressive” hissy left the realm of comedy and breached the realm of tyranny. Multiple elected officials – all Democrats – disgraced both themselves and the offices they hold by pledging to shut Chick-fil-A down, simply because they disagree with its leadership’s biblical viewpoint.”
“But the American people stood strong. In response to illegal threats by the mayors of Chicago, Boston, San Francisco and Philadelphia to ban Chick-fil-A from their respective jurisdictions, the residents of those great cities rebuked these Constitution-dumping donkeys with “freedom chicken” lines that wrapped-around city blocks. “Mayor Emanuel,” they declared, “your godless values are not ‘Chicago Values!’”
Most significantly, a cadre of well funded fascists, dressed up as “progressives” aka liberals, are determined, very dangerous, and seek to turn western concepts of true tolerance and liberty upside its head. They will stop at nothing.
The battle lines have been drawn. A pox on their (il)liberal forces.
Liberty vs tyranny.
Few things are harder to explore than delving into a national (or personal) trauma. A mass shooting surely qualifies.
Its emotionally charged ramifications, plus digging through the media muck, causes even the heartiest to think twice before diving in. Regardless, this tragedy has an all too familiar stench, similar to the one wafting through the public atmosphere after the horrific Oklahoma City bombing in 1995, as well as other unsubstantiated nationally reported narratives.
As previously commented in ‘What Happens When A Compliant Media Ceases Their Due Diligence…Thus Parroting Officialdom’s Narrative’ – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/08/01/what-happens-when-a-compliant-media-ceases-their-due-diligence-thus-parroting-officialdoms-narratives-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/) – when the fish stinks from the head up it is incumbent upon others to lead the charge. The combination of a lockstep media, beholden to a radical leadership, is too dangerous to ignore.
Enter reliable alternative sources.
A picture is (usually) worth a thousand words. And, a fact-based, non-biased report with a video clip attached helps to clarify the issue at hand even further. ‘The Western Center For Journalism’ performs both tasks diligently, chiefly within the following article/embedded video – ‘The Colorado Massacre:Lies The Media Told Me’.
“America woke up on July 21 to find that a massacre had occurred rivaling nothing we had ever seen before. Twelve dead, dozens more wounded.The source of this carnage? A super-genius neuroscience graduate student by the name of James Eagan Holmes.”
“His college ID photo was splashed across the airwaves, and America began spewing a unified hatred for this madman. It seemed like a replay of the film 1984’s Two-Minutes Hate, in which the superstate Oceania were as one in a frenzied hatred of the arch-fiend, Emmanuel Goldstein.”
“BIG BROTHER ISN’T WATCHING YOU; HE’S SPINNING THE TRUTH.”
“Except there were rumblings from the proles watching the media spin the carnage like a spinoff to The Dark Knight Rises.”
“Right on cue before the bodies were even cold, Obama and his surrogates in the media were calling for gun control.”
“Right on cue, the UN was voting on the Small Arms Treaty that would eventually nullify the Second Amendment.”
“We were told that James Holmes was a lone wolf, despite the police dispatch and witnesses stating the contrary.”
“We were told that James Holmes’ college ID photo did not match the “Joker” James Holmes because faces changed over time.”
“Noses, too?”
“Maybe Holmes had a nose job on his way to the jail.”
“The man who was presented to us during the preliminary hearing, who looked more like someone who had a lobotomy than someone who methodically and precisely planned the massacre for months, was the genius mass murderer?”
“The James Holmes we saw in court didn’t look like he could tie his own shoes, let alone set up a booby trap in his apartment that took the local police and FBI two days to disarm.”
“MESSAGE FROM BIG BROTHER:
Be good sheep, and repeat the following:
WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
Yeah…”
View the clear eyed video too – http://www.westernjournalism.com/the-colorado-massacre-lies-the-media-told-me/.
To further shore up the mystery, here is another video which adds to the appearance of the media’s deception. It requires urgent answers from folks with no more than average intelligence, and a modicum of moxy. However, conspiracy theorists should stay away from this rational discourse.
Be aware, there are several ‘Jew-phobic’ clips attempting to conflate/resurrect a Golem-like Jewish blood libel (‘the ‘Joos’ control the banks and the media’) to the massacre. What a shock.
But, do pay attention to this link – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oeFmpQpccuc&feature=g-all-u. Its relevance lies in its simplicity, and in pointing out a particular basic fact. A fact which has been left unexplored and ignored by the media. Why is this? Why can’t the chips fall where they may?
Inquiring minds have a right to know, as well as a duty to question.
IF we are wrong…decidedly off the mark….we should offer a swift mea culpa. (It is not as if I am always right). Nevertheless, the onus absolutely still lies on those hailing from official quarters, shilling the ‘crazy gunman’ narrative. In tandem, the compliant media is mandated to do their due diligence, at the very least, they must stay the hell out of the way.
Mocking won’t be tolerated.
Moreover, they shouldn’t expect, nor dare they demand, free-thinkers to shut up. Unless of course, they are ready to admit that America is no longer the land of the free…the home of the brave.
And, it will then be up to patriots to decide what course to take.
Read the latest from DEBKA …..http://debka.com/article/22246/Was-Iran-behind-coordinated-Islamist-attacks-on-Egypt-and-Israel-from-Sinai-
then, re-read my previous commentary – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/06/25/miluim-on-the-border-8/
thereby, is it little wonder that I do what I do?
Washington’s machinations directly affects our Jewish sons and daughters…as well as America’s sons and daughters…..who are sent to fight the Islamists, only to find that their sacrifices were for naught, as the radicals in Washington end up empowering them !
We are in this struggle together…whether we like it or not !
I am neither a pessimist nor an optimist. I am more of a realist.
Realistically speaking Islamists are making huge strides, but all is hardly lost. Much of the outcome depends upon the (final) capitulation of the United States, and herein lies the calculus.
On the one hand – and for a multiplicity of reasons – it is apparent that most of America’s power players are lining up behind Islamists and their assorted tentacles.
On the other side of the spectrum, one finds a smattering of highly vocal, articulate, stalwart defenders of American ethos, working assiduously to beat back America’s deserters. They can be found within Washington’s corridors, as well as outside its incestuous confines.
Therefore, the sliding scale is precipitous, but at the same time (still) hopeful. This is not a matter of cognitive dissonance, but a reflection of reality. As such, a stalemate of sorts has evolved, but like everything else, there will be a winner and a loser. Eventually.
Thus, warranting special notice is the following, particularly since it emanates from one of the few reliable media outlets
Commentary Magazine is both a print and online publication. In my humble estimation it stands head and shoulders above most of its peers. Basically, it is a thinking person’s ‘go to’ address – sans the ego tripping – for politico/social commentary, be it American, Israeli or other global hot spots.
In this regard, I read with much interest and alarm ‘The Great Islamist Comeback’. Bear this in mind – Commentary’s writers are short on hyperbole, and long on facts on the ground. No wishy washy, finger-in-the wind pontificating. They call it like they see it.
So, according to Abe Greenwald –
“On Tuesday, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta met with the new Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi in Cairo and declared, “It’s clear that Egypt, following the revolution, is committed to putting into place a democratic government.” If so, neither “democratic” nor “clear” mean what they once did. Since taking power Morsi has ignored the violation of women’s and Christians’ rights, and his Muslim Brotherhood comrades have been drafting a constitution meant to elevate Islamists above all other Egyptians.”
“Critics of the Iraq War liked to say that ballots don’t equal democracy. Today a Muslim Brotherhood leader speaks the word “democracy” and its existence is taken as self-evident. The incredulity of the Bush years and the hypno-suggestibility of the moment are manifestations of the same popular wish: to extricate America from ideological battles in foreign lands.”
“This is an understandable sentiment that long predates our confrontation with political Islam. John Quincy Adams said that the United States should be the “well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all . . . , the champion and vindicator only of her own.” That formulation prefigured the human-rights approach of Barack Obama, who Lawrence Haas describes aptly in his new book, Sound the Trumpet, as “a rhetorical idealist but an operational realist.”
“The paradox has served him poorly. Obama the rhetorical idealist wished Iranians well (just barely) in the summer of 2009, while Obama the operational realist pursued a diplomatic relationship with Tehran. Basij forces soon crushed protestors in the streets. Tunisia was wished well and today the ruling Islamist party, Ennahda, has filed a bill to criminalize blasphemy. Obama saluted Egyptians before the Muslim Brotherhood took control of their country. And the rhetorical idealist praised Syrian rebels for a year and a half while the operational realist tried to outsource matters to the UN and Moscow. The result? A recent New York Times Headline declares, “As Syrian War Drags On, Jihadists Take Bigger Role.”
“Only in Libya, where our European allies dragged us into action, is there (for now) no Islamist party in charge. The extent to which that’s a function of the prevailing chaos remains to be seen.”
“Most problematic is the bon voyage wished Iraq last December. In 2009, the rhetorical idealist praised Iraq’s democracy and described the American effort there as an “extraordinary achievement.” He was right. Troops in Iraq not only gave their lives fighting for the creation of the sole functioning Arab democracy; they fought al-Qaeda into irrelevance and near total defeat. But the operational realist left no American presence behind to secure our accomplishments. Today, the Henry Jackson Society’s Robin Simcox accurately calls the land of al-Qaeda’s undoing a “new front” in the War on Terror. Since the U.S. left, the al-Qaeda connected group Islamic State of Iraq has launched a bombing campaign so intense that officials are preemptively surrendering by stepping down.”
“In Afghanistan, a more managed reversal is underway. The rhetorical idealist bragged, “we’ve broken the Taliban’s momentum.” But the operational realist sends envoys to treat with them in hopes of a peace deal before the United States leaves the country. When the U.S. exits Afghanistan in 2014, the Taliban will be free to do as they please. This is fortuitous timing for their old friends the Arab jihadists. As Islamist parties take political power in the Middle East, their terrorist branches can resume residence on the staging grounds of 9/11.”
“Let us acknowledge the enormity now unfolding and also pay heed to historical context. This is not merely a regional rise in Islamist power. It is the dawn of a great Islamist comeback. The ten years since 9/11 were spent problematically but successfully dousing the flames of jihad. The past four have seen an inrush of oxygen.”
“It’s hard to overestimate how emboldened Islamists must feel. In propitious events they see divine endorsement. What are increased drone strikes and the death of Osama bin laden compared to a new historical epoch? A recent State Department report touts a “12% decline in [terrorist] attacks from 2010 [to 2011]” and claims the killing of bin Laden and other terrorists “puts the [Al Qaeda] network on a path of decline that will be difficult to reverse.” The State Department has faith in statistics; Islamists think in terms of history. It’s why we’re shortsighted and they’re patient. The oxygen has been granted. The fire will grow.”
“Our options for countering the Islamist comeback were limited, yes, but not nonexistent. The U.S. could have robustly supported the Iranian democrats who asked for American help; allied with Arab liberals instead of courting Arab dictators; funneled weapons and money to parties that we’d have come to know; and tied foreign aid and trade to regimes’ human rights policies. If you think such things would have made no difference consider that even with the Muslim Brotherhood’s monopoly on organization Morsi won less than 52% of the runoff vote.”
“Obama could have used our leverage in Iraq to keep the country on course with a relatively small number of American troops stationed there after the war. And he could have made good on his campaign promise to win in Afghanistan. A comeback is accomplished by one side but always facilitated by the other. In the gap between American rhetoric and American action Islamists staged a revival.” Link here –http://www.commentarymagazine.com/2012/08/03/the-great-islamist-comeback/.
Greenwald is precisely on target with his main thesis. In essence, to the actual victor goes the spoils. In other words, rhetoric is fine for sparring in a debate, but not for life and death geo-political decisions.
In a clash between civilizations – and this is where we find ourselves – the side which thinks within a long-term historical realm will ultimately prevail. The other side will be left licking its wounds in the dust, if lucky.
Nevertheless, the tipping point should be viewed through the lens of the next POTUS. It is no exaggeration to suggest, if Barack Hussein Obama wins, the oxygen given to Islamists will explode in ways unimaginable.
On the positive side of the equation, if Romney emerges the winner, there will be a pause in their gains, and an opportunity to push back their inroads.
The (western) stakes couldn’t be higher. They are fateful.
Not to put a too fine point on it, but many – who should know better – teeter out on insane limbs (professional and personal) for ‘the other’. If one is from the third world, exotic, and otherwise part of an ‘aggrieved’ group, all common sense is rendered mute…two sheets to the wind.
Despite the above, or in veritable spite of it, prominent forces are working feverishly to tip the scales in favor of pure American, western interests, essentially saying, to hell with third world ‘sensibilities and sensitivities’.
Heart lifting.
While on a much smaller scale, commentaries found at this blog are doing just that. In fact, delving into the ‘ties that bind’ Huma Abedin to The Muslim Mafia is a decidedly American and western interest. Related commentaries can be found here – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/08/03/hillary-clintons-tap-dance-around-huma-abedins-brotherhoodsisterhood-connections-media-matters-request-show-us-her-security-clearance-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/ – btw, each embedded link builds upon the other.
On a wider scale, into the fray jumps Diana West , a non-intimidated, syndicated journalist with a laser-eyed focus. With nary a PC bone to throw their way, she digs a stake further into the heart of the damsel-in-distress’s stalwart defenders. Never one to pull punches, she goes after the little lady, as well as her protectors, full throttle.
Poor Huma …..cry me a river. Buck up.
West goes for the jugular – “Two weeks ago, I wrote about the handful of House Republicans, led by Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, who sent letters in June to inspectors general at five government departments, asking them to investigate evidence of Muslim Brotherhood influence on U.S. government policymaking. The Muslim Brotherhood is a global Islamic movement engaged, according to the group’s own internal document, on a “grand jihad” in North America to destroy “Western civilization from within.” To date, the inspectors general haven’t responded.”
“Nonetheless, Bachmann and her colleagues — Trent Franks of Arizona, Louie Gohmert of Texas, Tom Rooney of Florida and Lynn Westmoreland of Georgia — have focused attention on the disastrous policy of bringing members of known Muslim Brotherhood fronts and their associates into Uncle Sam’s policymaking chain. The representatives’ letters went to inspectors general at State, Justice, Defense, Homeland Security and the Office of the National Intelligence Director. These government nerve centers are increasingly advancing policies American leaders once would have excoriated for supporting the enemies of this country.”
“Is it by chance, for example, that director of national intelligence James Clapper, reading from prepared notes, absurdly described the Muslim Brotherhood to the House Intelligence Committee last year as a “largely secular” organization? Is it an accident that in June the State Department issued a visa to Hani Nour Eldin of Egypt to meet with senior White House officials? Eldin is a member of Gama’a al-Islamiyya, a terrorist organization once led by Omar Abdel Rahman, “the blind sheikh” convicted of the first attack on the World Trade Center. In the person of Rahman’s successor, Refai Ahmed Taha, the group is one of the five signatories of Osama bin Laden’s February 1998 “World Islamic Front Statement Urging Jihad Against Jews and Crusaders.” Isn’t it imperative to review the policy mechanism that permitted a member of bin Laden’s jihad front into the White House?”
“According to our elected officials, the answer is no. Not one House member, Democrat, Republican or tea party, has come out in solidarity with the National Security Five. Typically, the mainstream media have reacted not by digging up facts themselves (what are they, journalists?), but rather by throwing mud on Michele Bachmann. “Stop ‘witch-hunting’ Huma Abedin, top aide to Hillary Clinton,” is the war cry from CNN to USA Today. Many conservative outlets, such as Fox and The Washington Examiner, are strangely silent.”
“To be sure, one of the Bachmann letters notes the case of Huma Abedin — a confidante of the secretary of state whose family has dense ties to Muslim Brotherhood organizations. She has become the human face used to distract from the overarching national security issue. Honest answers to the wide array of questions the House members have asked would expose high elected officials in both parties as dupes of our enemies, at best. The American people would find out how Uncle Sam came to support al-Qaida in Libya; Muslim Brothers in Egypt; and, now, al-Qaida and Muslim Brothers in Syria. An honest investigation would spotlight the internal process that led Uncle Sam to sponsor a new international counterterrorism organization without Israel. The shameful fact is, our power-elites don’t want these questions answered because the answers would threaten their hold on power.”
“Bachmann & Co. haven’t alleged wrongdoing on Abedin’s part. Rather, their question turns on the process that permitted a person with close family ties to an array of world Islamic movements and figures hostile to the United States to gain the security clearance Abedin requires to serve alongside the secretary of state.”
“I looked over the lengthy Form 86 that federal employees fill out to apply for national security positions. One portion is devoted to an applicant’s relatives, with a question about relatives’ affiliations with any “foreign movement.” If Abedin answered fully — and there are stiff penalties for failing to do so — she would have noted, for starters, that her mother, Saleha Abedin, belongs to the Muslim Sisterhood (the Brotherhood’s auxiliary, primarily for relatives of prominent Brothers) and serves on the board of the International Islamic Council for Dawah and Relief, a group banned in Israel for supporting Hamas. Saleha Abedin has been a representative of the Muslim World League, whose affiliates have been charged by the U.S. government with funding terrorism. Any ensuing investigation would turn up Saleha’s work with the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs, where she edits the journal that Huma, too, worked on for a dozen years. That same institute was founded by Huma’s father in Saudi Arabia with the assistance and long-term involvement of Abdullah Omar Naseef. Naseef was secretary-general of the Muslim World League and also founded the Rabita Trust, a U.S.-designated international terrorist organization with ties to al-Qaida.”
“There’s more, but just imagine the light dawning on the background-checker: So, Ms. Abedin, let me get this straight: Your folks, and you, too, worked with a guy who founded a terrorist organization linked to al-Qaida, your mom’s on the board of a group banned in Israel for supporting Hamas, and you want top-secret clearance to work for the secretary of state.Then what happened?” – http://townhall.com/columnists/dianawest/2012/08/03/why_are_we_handing_muslim_extremists_the_house_keys/page/full/.
‘Why Are We Handing Muslim Extremists the House Keys?’ is anything but an understatement, demonstrating that Diana West’s raking – of officialdom in Washington over the coals – is more than well deserved. She spanks them very hard. And, they have been very, very naughty.
To add to the skewering, Walid Shoebat (my readers should be familiar with his anti-jihadi efforts) added this – ‘Diana West Puts Huma Defenders in Check, Not Far From Checkmate’ – http://www.shoebat.com/2012/08/03/diana-west-puts-huma-defenders-in-check-not-far-from-checkmate/.
Not to make the readers too dizzy, check out (after you take a well deserved rest) the detailed linkage which binds ‘delicate’ Huma into Brotherhood/Sisterhood knots. It ain’t pretty .
Terrifying, to be exact.
Dr. Andrew G. Bostom, highly qualified to track and hunt jihadi tentacles, offered his gleanings via ‘Abedin Family Journal Promoted Muslim Brotherhood Views’ – http://pjmedia.com/blog/abedin-family-journal-promoted-muslim-brotherhood-views/?singlepage=true.
To wit,
The American house is on fire…burning from within.
Will it be put out in time??
How many times, and how many ways, does ones enemy have to state their intentions, before they are taken seriously? Apparently, too many times, when butting up against the PA/Israeli (holier than thou) political cesspool.
Examining the recesses of Israeli political discourse is akin to dropping into an Alice-In-Wonderland fantasy world. Magically delicious. Thereafter, one can then be forgiven for thinking they were actually living in Neverland, unceremoniously dropped on their head, never having to deal with reality again – ever. A place where up was down; down was up; wrong was right; right was wrong; evil was good; and good was evil; and everything one believed to be the truth was no longer bound to any factual basis.
Poof…reality…never to be dealt with again.
For if this wasn’t the case, how does one rationally explain the most recent (out of too many to count) otherworldly report, assuring readers – hither and yon – that Israel’s leaders are working assiduously to shore up the PA (terror) junta’s economy? Thus, informing one and all, especially the naysayers, that economics will turn their jihad-loving ways upside down. Huh and duh?
In ‘Is Israel Helping PA Prepare For War’, one immediately glances at the headline and wonders – has the writer fallen on her head? Far from it. She is thoroughly conscious.
Maayana Miskin reported – “Israel took steps this week to boost the Palestinian Authority economy by tying it more tightly to Israel’s own economy. Among other things, Israel will help build pipelines to transfer petroleum products to the PA and will use its advanced technology to monitor the flow of goods, helping the PA to enforce its tax laws….Further steps will ease the flow of goods between Israel and PA-controlled regions in Judea and Samaria (Shomron).”
“Both Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz and PA Prime Minister Salam Fayyad signed on the initiative. “I am certain that the arrangements concluded will help strengthen the economic base of the Palestinian Authority,” Fayyad said.
“Economist Nachum Gutentag said the agreement is unlikely to hurt Israel’s economy, which is much larger than the PA’s. However, he said, it could help the PA prepare for open conflict in the future.”
“Since the failure of the Intifada, Fayyad has taken the approach of, ‘build the economy peacefully, and when the day comes, if we want to detach or to fight we’ll have the infrastructure for it,’” he explained. The agreement is likely to significantly strengthen the PA economy, he noted.”
“Gutentag was surprised that Israeli leaders apparently did not condition the deal on an end to Fayyad’s incitement to boycott Israeli goods. Fayyad has publicly burned Israeli products made in Judea and Samaria, and has called on others to do the same. It would have been logical to demand an end to calls to boycott Israel, he said, adding, “I would have expected our diplomats to do so, and not to give something without getting something in return.” Link can be found here – http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/158561#.UB0t9fZlTIl.
So, while PA Prime Minister Fayyad looks long-range – even if it takes over a hundred years – our resident fantasists think in sound bites. Not wise at all.
And the following sayings are more than applicable – crazy is as crazy does, and stupid is as stupid does. At the very least, this has to be the case, simply because it has been proven – over and over again – that the PA/Fatah and Hamas terror gangs won’t be appeased by economic/gas/fuel incentives. However, they will use said gains to shore up their jihad !
Still, if one prefers not to believe the above, fine. It’s your funeral. But do believe the actual words and deeds of PA Prime Minister Fayyad. A smooth as silk leader, he is savvy enough (just like Abbas aka Abu Mazen) not to design his wardrobe ala the schmata-head covering/pistol wearing wardrobe of his terror brother, Arafat. After all, a western appearance is enough to tame the “Zionist entity”, as well as the rest of the terrified western leadership.
Style over substance.
My article at American Thinker (found at The Jewish Press too), ‘The Paradox Of Israeli Politics:Vote Right, Get Left’ gives a basic overview, explaining how Israel continually finds itself fielding leftist policies (for the most part), even when a “right wing” party is heading the government – http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/06/the_paradox_of_israeli_politics_vote_right_get_left.html. Understanding this dichotomy is key, and also leaves ones head scratching to a minimum, when witnessing the cognitive dissonance swirling overhead.
In concert, Jerusalem Post columnist Sarah Honig – a wordsmith like few others, as well as a literature and history buff – often writes about the leadership’s penchant for appeasement bordering on bizarro world, as she leaves the reader in stitches, even though her topics are deadly serious. Well, if you don’t laugh, you are surely gonna cry, once one realizes what passes for political decision-making from Israel’s “leading lights”.
Decide for yourselves – http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Columnists/Article.aspx?id=279919 – where the fantasy begins, and the truth lies.
Lastly, but most importantly, the inestimable Dr. Martin Sherman (www.strategic-israel.org/ , http://www.martinsherman.org/About_Martin_Sherman.html) offers his strategically adept analysis to the above national insanity.
The Dr. is in the house, and the lunatics running the asylum would do well to pay strict heed.
As to the readers, below are several of his outstanding analyses which can be found via his weekly columns. They are more than worth your time. In fact, this blog’s prescription is to imbibe them, akin to a nation-saving medicine.
Without further ado, please view the following in descending order. Doing so will help build the case, starting with his analysis from June 16, 2009 until today.

If people world over are seeking answers, to the heretofore inexplicable, look no further – school’s in session via Dr. Sherman’s tutelage.
Alas, no one needs to bang their noggins any longer, trying to figure out how Maayana Miskin’s doozy piece of news bodes for Israel. People must belatedly place aside the bill of “peace” goods we have been sold (about the fashionably suited PA leadership), finally realizing that the current junta is no different than Arafat’s.
All together now – let’s just put common sense back into our discourse, with the understanding that the current crop of PA/Fatah heads are nothing more than Arafat’s dutiful disciples !
On the other hand, why bother ourselves with minutia, there are “processes” to move along.
And so here we find ourselves – for the umpteenth time – faced with a “never say no to peace” leadership.
Will they ever learn? Doubtful.
It pays to keep in close contact with networks here and there, especially those who owe you a favor or two. Jerusalem is rife with such associates.
In any case, when this American-Israeli came upon the latest news article, decided to call in a chit to verify its authenticity. Nothing wrong with that.
So, if anyone needed more back up, as to where the POTUS is headed in a second term – regarding Israel’s eternal, historical, biblical capital – look no further. The devil is often in the most minute, seemingly obscure details, in the hope that the intended secret will be shielded from the public.
Thankfully, the cat is out of the bag.
Due to full-on reporting by a few stalwart truth-tellers, the public knows the score – or at least they soon will ! Know this. The following directive came from the tippy top, and the “elimination” of Hebrew is not part of a rogue element within the US Consulate.
Not by a long shot.
Enter the US Consulate in Jerusalem. “Why Is The US Speaking Arabic?’ is a frontal assault on Jewish sovereignty in its capital, in effect, a war on Jerusalem without shots being fired!
“Last week, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney evaded a direct answer on which city the U.S. recognizes as the capital of Israel. It should have been an easy answer, as a law adopted by Congress in 1995 states that the U.S. recognizes Jerusalem. But Carney dodged, jumped and posed in order to avoid stating Jerusalem is the capital.”
“Lawn tells WND why she asked the question in the first place and what a real answer to the question would have revealed.The U.S. embassy conducts its business in Tel Aviv in Hebrew and English, but I’ve been told the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem conducts its business in Arabic and English.” Lawn told WND.
“The White House included a little asterisk with the transcript of the exchange with Lawn to explain “The status of Jerusalem is an issue that should be resolved in final status negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians.”
“It is a very politically charged question,” said Lawn. “The U.S. should follow the law. If the CIA says the capital of Israel is Jerusalem then why is the Obama administration hesitating on this policy?”
“Les Kinsolving, WND’s correspondent at the White House and the second-most senior reporter on the beat, jumped into the fray and backed up Lawn’s questioning of Carney.”
Pay attention to the video linked to this article – http://www.wnd.com/2012/08/why-is-u-s-speaking-arabic-in-jerusalem/.
To add impetus to the already grave damage Barack Hussein Obama has caused Israel, one must recall his well documented, deep animus towards Israel before he became POTUS.
And the First “Lady” actually spilled the beans in 2009. It was akin to her major foot-in-the-mouth moment, when she infamously exhorted “this is the first time I am proud to be an American.”
Michele, you pain this blogger.
In ‘Obama Calls For Divided Jerusalem’ the markers have already been laid down. Those who chose to see the truth understood its efficacy, at least several years back. Others, not so much. Nevertheless, his intentions are irrefutable.
“In a longstanding change in U.S. foreign policy towards Israel, at the end of his speech on the Middle East, President Obama said the borders of Israel and a Palestinian state should fall where they were before the 1967 war. This would put Jerusalem, the Wailing Wall, The Temple Mount, Old Jerusalem, and The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in the hands of the Palestinian government, currently run by the terrorist organizations of Hamas and Fatah.”
“The Golan Heights would be returned to Syria, a country led by a man who is murdering his citizens and would leave Israel defenseless which is why they seized the Heights to begin with because Syria was raining bombs down upon them.”
“According to the Jewish Haartz news service:
Obama has little knowledge of the history, ideology and psychology of the Arab opposition to the Jewish state’s existence. But he has a strategy: to thaw relations with Islam. It is clear what will be demanded in return.”
“This seems to fall in line with what Michelle Obama said in 2009 before she was yanked from the public speaking circuit:
Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, our history; we’re going to have to move into a different place as a nation.
“May we remind everybody that the “Arab Spring” is leading towards Sharia Law in Egypt while Barack Obama wants to forgive $1 billion in debts to that country so the freedom hating, anti-Israeli, pro-terrorist Muslim Brotherhood can start with a fresh slate.”
“The Jews of Israel will never accept a divided Jerusalem and Obama knows this but what he is doing (like what Jimmy Carter did with Iran before the Shah was overthrown) is pouring gasoline on the kindling of the “repressed” peoples of the Middle East.”
It is laid out in full here – http://capitolcommentary.com/2011/05/19/obama-calls-for-divided-jerusalem/.
The pertinent question before us is this – if a first-term, voter-concerned Barack Hussein Obama thwarted lawful dictates by Congress, what can we (Americans & Israelis) expect from an unencumbered second term Presidency?
Exactly.
Fellow Israelis – hopefully you have enough non-perishable supplies on hand; gas masks at the ready; contingency plans in place; and are prepared, as one can be, for what is definitely coming our way.
It is what it is, and pretending otherwise is NOT an option.
All prayers are welcome.

What a person omits (especially from an experienced operative like Hillary Clinton) can be as important as what one actually states – maybe even more so.
Up until recently the Sec of State has been publicly mum about the heated controversy surrounding her Deputy COS, Huma Abedin. Curiously so.
Thus, when she belatedly went on record and explained via ‘Hillary Publicly Defends Huma Abedin;Applauds McCain For Doing Same’, clear thinkers understood that her words were meant to cease all questioning, certainly not to shed further light on the conflict.
by Admin on JULY 31, 2012 in BLOG, GENERAL
“Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is now publicly on record as defending her closest adviser and Deputy Chief of Staff, Huma Abedin. She’s also praising John McCain for doing the same.”
Via POLITICO:
“Secretary of State Hillary Clinton defended her own top State Department aide Huma Abedin against charges that Abdein had ties to radical Islam — saying that those attacks have “no place in our politics.”
Speaking at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Monday, Clinton was asked about suspicions raised by a handful of Republican members of Congress in a letter — including Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) — that the Muslim-American Abedin may have ties to Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood group.
In answering the question, Clinton tied the Abedin controversy into the struggle of developing nations to respect minority religions.
“Leadership is incredibly important. Leaders have to be active in stepping in and sending messages about protecting the diversity within their countries. And frankly, I don’t see enough of that, and I want to see more of it. I want to see more of it, and we did see some of that in our own country. We saw Republicans stepping up and standing up against the kind of assaults that really have no place in our politics,” Clinton said.
“What’s very key in that quote from Clinton is that it doesn’t contain a denial of the facts. Instead, she refers to questions as “assaults” and says they shouldn’t be asked.
“We beg to differ, especially in light of what we now know. What Hillary knows becomes very important as well.”
“Regular visitors to this site know that Huma’s time with the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs (IMMA) is key to understanding the questions raised by the likes of Bachmann. In particular, Huma served as an Assistant Editor there for years. Blind Sheikh prosecutor Andy McCarthy explains over at PJM:
“The Center for Security Policy has reviewed past mastheads of the IMMA’s journal. Huma Abedin is listed as an assistant editor (to her mother, the editor-in-chief) as far back as 1996, the year she began interning at the Clinton White House. The IMMA was started in Saudi Arabia in the 1970s by Huma Abedin’s parents, with the backing of Abdullah Omar Naseef. Naseef is a former secretary-general of the Muslim World League, which, as I’ve previously explained, has long been the Muslim Brotherhood’s principal vehicle for the international propagation of Islamic supremacist ideology.”
Here is the entire link, and bear this in mind – Huma’s links to the Brotherhood are verified through Sept 24, 2008 ! – http://www.shoebat.com/2012/07/31/hillary-clinton-publicly-defends-huma-abedin-applauds-mccain-for-doing-same/.
Mendacity knows no bounds.
Moreover, as Walid Shoebat posited above, Clinton didn’t even deign to refute the charges being leveled against her Deputy Chief of Staff. She merely assaulted the right of other elected officials (as well as patriotic Americans) to even ask such impertinent questions, changing the conversation to a total non sequitur! “Leadership is incredibly important”….blah, blah blah.
What the hell does that have to do with the price of tea in China? How stupid does she think people are? Very. And, while she was playing verbal footsie, she patted some toeing-the-line Republicans on their heads for their toady behavior. I’m talking to you, McCain.
Retch.
Using a typical ‘Rules for Radicals’ tactic, she deflected the conversation through a combination of ridicule, thus placing the questioner on the defensive. Only in ‘progressive-land’ would such convoluted ‘reasoning’ pass for logical/rational national discourse.
This blog is bursting with the administration’s obfuscations, regarding Huma Abedin’s less than six degrees of separation with The Muslim Mafia . See here – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/07/28/update-huma-abedins-familial-muslim-brotherhoodsisterhood-tree-gains-another-root-addendum-to-huma-abedin-deputy-cos-to-hillary-clinton-inextricably-tied-to-muslim-brotherhoodsisterhood/ – check out the links too.
Lo and behold, George-the-devil-incarnate-Soros tasked his bit bulls to defend the damsel in distress, in an attempt to shield her from the clutching jaws of Representative Michele Bachmann. Hysterical.
But no matter. Cliff Kincaid from Accuracy In Media has other ideas, and is demanding that integrity enter the vetting process, a process which has been tainted in more ways than a whorehouse.
By asking the simplest, most logical, and inherently lawful question ‘Where is Huma Abedin’s Security Clearance ?’ Kincaid cuts to the core of the issue. His reasoning is beyond reproach, and demands answers forthwith.
“The head of the Soros-funded Center for American Progress (CAP) is defending controversial State Department official Huma Abedin, a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who is suspected of playing a role in Obama Administration “engagement” with the anti-American Muslim Brotherhood.”
“Neera Tanden, president and CEO of CAP and Counselor for CAP’s Action Fund, has sent out an email defending Abedin and asking that Rep. Michele Bachmann be thrown off the House Intelligence Committee for asking questions about the vetting process that Abedin was supposed to go through.”
“Michele Bachmann has gone from outrageous to dangerous,” Tanden said in her email to CAP supporters.”
“Tanden is a former Obama Administration official whose previous claim to fame was working for the Obama White House to pass Obamacare. Her work at CAP apparently includes supporting the Obama Administration’s policy to “engage” with the Muslim Brotherhood. It is believed Abedin is right in the middle of that, by virtue of her position as State Department deputy chief of staff.”
“CAP is the organization that hired Van Jones before he took his job as White House “Green Jobs Czar” and then re-hired him after his communist background came to light and he lost his job in the administration.”
“Tanden said in her email to CAP supporters that the problem was not Abedin’s access to classified information but Bachmann’s. She urged House Speaker John Boehner to remove Bachmann from the Intelligence Committee. “Rep. Bachmann’s antics have proven that she can’t be trusted to act in our best interests,” said Tanden.
“Boehner, as well as Senator John McCain, had criticized Bachmann for merely asking questions about Abedin’s fitness for her position. But they didn’t indicate familiarity with or knowledge of Abedin’s security clearance form, known as Standard Form 86, or the “Questionnaire for National Security Positions.”
“Despite the claims of “witch hunt” and “McCarthyism” that are echoed in the liberal media, especially by Anderson Cooper of CNN, Bachmann and other members of Congress simply want to know whether Abedin’s Muslim Brotherhood connections were disclosed and/or examined when she gained access to national security information.”
“Their letter to the Inspector General of the State Department points out that Abedin “has three family members—her late father, her mother and her brother—connected to Muslim Brotherhood operatives and/or organizations,” and that “Her position affords her routine access to the Secretary and to policy-making.”
“The matter can be resolved, if the media are truly interested in getting to the bottom of the controversy, by demanding access to Abedin’s Standard Form 86, which she was supposed to fill out before getting her State Department job. House Speaker Boehner could also demand a copy.”
“Did she disclose her family connections to the Muslim Brotherhood, as well as to Saudi Arabia, where she once lived and was raised?”
“It is required that job candidates complete the questionnaire and other required forms thoroughly, honestly, and with candor,” the State Department says.
“For its part, the White House says it is committed to transparency and open government. Releasing Abedin’s form is a test case and a way to start resolving the controversy.”
“The questionnaire for national security positions is a 127-page document which asks for such information as relatives and associates, foreign activities, foreign countries visited, the use of illegal drugs, and involvement in groups dedicated to terrorism or the overthrow of the U.S. government.”
“The State Department says, “Eligibility for access to classified information, commonly known as a security clearance, is granted only to those for whom an appropriate personnel security background investigation has been completed. It must be determined that the individual’s personal and professional history indicates loyalty to the United States, strength of character, trustworthiness, honesty, reliability, discretion, and sound judgment, as well as freedom from conflicting allegiances and potential for coercion, and a willingness and ability to abide by regulations governing the use, handling, and protection of classified information.”
“It is not surprising that CAP would spring to the defense of Abedin. Matt Duss, a policy analyst at the Center for American Progress Action Fund, wrote an article, “Talking to the Muslim Brotherhood (finally),” in which he defended the administration “reaching out to parties and Islamic movements” but at the same time raised concern about “the group’s most prominent affiliated cleric, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, [who] regularly issues the grossest anti-American and anti-Semitic slanders on his Al- Jazeera show.”
“AIM has called on Rep. Peter King, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, to investigate Al-Jazeera, on the grounds that it functions as a mouthpiece for terrorist groups. He has not undertaken such an investigation.”
“CAP, however, works openly with Al-Jazeera. When CAP released a report that purported to examine a conservative network of people and groups described as “Fear Inc.” and said to be guilty of “Islamophobia” toward Muslims, one of the authors, Wajahat Ali, went on Al-Jazeera to promote the claims.”
“Wajahat Ali and Matt Duss collaborated on another article that attempted to explain why Sharia, or Islamic religious law, “is not the threat conservatives claim it is.” The authors expressed particular concern that the Center for Security Policy had authored a major report advocating that supporters of Islamic law be barred from holding positions of trust in federal, state, or local governments or the armed forces of the United States.”
“Last August, CAP sponsored an event designed to counteract the movement to prohibit the adoption of Sharia in the U.S. The group also opposed Rep. Peter King’s hearings on how Muslims in the U.S. are being radicalized to carry out terrorism.”
“Conservative writer Daniel Greenfield says, “A more accurate name for CAP would be the Center for Islamist Progress.” – http://www.aim.org/aim-column/where-is-huma-abedins-security-clearance-form/.
A betting public would not want to wager that Huma Abedin went through any meaningful vetting process . If they did so they would lose their assets, with nothing left but an empty bank account ,and everything else in between.
It is no longer mandatory to speculate, prognosticate, intuit, or otherwise “divine” what a second term – heaven forfend – Obama Presidency will entail, be it by hook or by crook.
Thanks to several stalwart investigative journalists we can now discern its basic contours, to the closest degree possible. Surely other “surprises” await a hapless and helpless citizenry.
Horrifying.
‘The Purposeful Deconstruction of the US…& The Co-opting of DHS…Into A Radical Force For Societal Transformation’ lays the groundwork – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/07/31/the-purposeful-deconstruction-of-the-us-the-co-opting-of-dhs-into-a-radical-force-for-societal-transformation-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/ – as well as several other related commentaries featured at this blog.
HOWEVER, little takes the place of eye-opening, jaw-dropping, highly sourced, exhaustively researched books by straight shooting investigative journalists. Journalists who simply see their roles as ferreting out the truth, allowing the chips to fall where they may, regardless of whether or not one agrees with their findings.
Refreshing. Quaint too.
Enter Aaron Klein. The author of several blockbuster investigations, as well as an award- winning, syndicated radio show host – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Klein – Klein is nobody’s fool. Having penned ‘Fool Me Twice’ with co-author Brenda Elliott, one becomes chilled to the bone throughout this gripping read, even if well schooled (as I am) in this arena. The book’s overview can be found here – http://superstore.wnd.com/books/Aaron-Klein/Fool-Me-Twice-Obamas-Shocking-Plans-for-the-Next-Four-Years-Exposed-Hardcover.
Their tutelage is a national public service. Simple as that.
In this regard, Canada Free Press drops several bombshells waiting to explode in all our faces. After all, what happens to America affects the entire free world, most especially Israel, a tiny nation surrounded on all sides by Islamic barbarians.
“The book, by New York Times bestselling authors Aaron Klein and Brenda J. Elliott, uncovers the template for Obama’s next four years – the actual, extensive plans created by Obama’s own top advisers and progressive strategists.” The article continues, “The second-term amnesty plans come in the form of inter-agency directives, legislative attempts and a series of Executive Orders similar to Obama’s June 2012 Order to stop deporting young illegal immigrants who entered the United States as children if they meet certain requirements….One section in their book, “Fool Me Twice,” is dedicated to liberal-progressive organizations such as the Center for American Progress who helped with the language of the reform bill introduced December 15, 2009 in Congress by two Hispanics, Reps. Solomon Ortiz, D-Texas, and Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill., with 91 original co-sponsors, was called the “Comprehensive Immigration Reform for America’s Security and Prosperity Act of 2009.” As of this writing in late July 2012, the 645-page bill has yet to pass…Specific amnesty plans documented in “Fool Me Twice” include a call for new restrictions placed on apprehending illegal aliens who are members of a newly defined “vulnerable population.”…The immigration reform bill written and introduced by two Hispanic U. S. Representatives, Ortiz and Gutierrez as stated above, have placed an inordinate amount of other restrictions in the bill on venues or sites where suspected illegal aliens may not be apprehended in the “premises or in the immediate vicinity of 20 sites: childcare provider; school; legal-service provider; federal court or state court proceeding; funeral home; cemetery; college, university; community services agency; social service agency; hospital; emergency care center; health care clinic; place of worship; day care center; head start center; school bus stop; recreation center; mental health facility; and a community center; also pregnant or disabled illegals.”
Dare they? Of course! Read additional snippets of the heart-stopping, anti-American plan described via this link – http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/48474.
To render freedom-loving people more heartburn – wake this American-Israeli up from her nightmare ! – Stanley Kurz, (requiring little introduction, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Kurtz) has exposed the reign of Obama in many incendiary ways.
Most recently, his 2010 book ‘Radical-in-Chief’ eviscerates Barack Hussein Obama’s carefully scripted, choreographed facade, painting him as a liberal, yet also a healing force for a fractured America, liberals and conservatives alike. That damnable lie has been shattered to smithereens, thanks in part to Kurz’s heavy lifting.
Fast forward to 2012, specifically Aug 1, 2012. ‘Burn Down The Suburbs?’ is a riveting, shocking, smokin’ hot article featured at the no-nonsense National Review Online.
Here are some of its revelations –
“President Obama is not a fan of America’s suburbs. Indeed, he intends to abolish them. With suburban voters set to be the swing constituency of the 2012 election, the administration’s plans for this segment of the electorate deserve scrutiny. Obama is a longtime supporter of “regionalism,” the idea that the suburbs should be folded into the cities, merging schools, housing, transportation, and above all taxation. To this end, the president has already put programs in place designed to push the country toward a sweeping social transformation in a possible second term. The goal: income equalization via a massive redistribution of suburban tax money to the cities…..Obama’s plans to undercut the political and economic independence of America’s suburbs reach back decades. The community organizers who trained him in the mid-1980s blamed the plight of cities on taxpayer “flight” to suburbia. Beginning in the mid-1990s, Obama’s mentors at the Gamaliel Foundation (a community-organizing network Obama helped found) formally dedicated their efforts to the budding fight against suburban “sprawl.” From his positions on the boards of a couple of left-leaning Chicago foundations, Obama channeled substantial financial support to these efforts. On entering politics, he served as a dedicated ally of his mentors’ anti-suburban activism…..In July of 2011, Kruglik’s Building One America held a conference at the White House. Orfield and Rusk made presentations, and afterwards Kruglik personally met with the president in the Oval Office. The ultimate goal of the movement led by Kruglik, Rusk, and Orfield is quite literally to abolish the suburbs. Knowing that this could never happen through outright annexation by nearby cities, they’ve developed ways to coax suburbs to slowly forfeit their independence….The centerpiece of the Obama administration’s anti-suburban plans is a little-known and seemingly modest program called the Sustainable Communities Initiative. The “regional planning grants” funded under this initiative — many of them in battleground states like Florida, Virginia, and Ohio — are set to recommend redistributive policies, as well as transportation and development plans, designed to undercut America’s suburbs. Few have noticed this because the program’s goals are muffled in the impenetrable jargon of “sustainability,” while its recommendations are to be unveiled only in a possible second Obama term…..A second and equally ambitious facet of Obama’s anti-suburban blueprint involves the work of Kruglik’s Building One America. Traditionally, Alinskyite community organizers mobilize leftist church groups. Kruglik’s group goes a step further by organizing not only the religious left but politicians from relatively less-well-off inner-ring suburbs. The goal is to build coalitions between urban and inner-ring suburban state legislators, in a bid to force regional tax-base sharing on middle-class suburbanites. That is how the practice came to Minnesota….The July 2011 White House conference, gathering inner-ring suburban politicians for presentations by Rusk and Orfield, was an effort to place the prestige of the Obama administration behind Kruglik’s organizing efforts. A multi-state battle over regional tax-base “sharing,” abetted by the president, would usher in divisive class warfare on a scale likely to dwarf the puny efforts of Occupy Wall Street….Obama’s little-known plans to undermine the political and economic autonomy of America’s suburbs constitute a policy initiative similar in ambition to health-care reform, the stimulus, or “cap-and-trade.” Obama’s anti-suburban plans also supply the missing link that explains his administration’s overall policy architecture.”

It is simply impossible to quantify (as of yet) the incalculable damage wrought by his first four years as POTUS. Blow back will explode when least expected. Guaranteed.
Can anyone honestly calculate the irreparable havoc a second term would entail, as the heretofore leading nation of the free world?
While a plethora of “transformations” have been uncovered, how about what remains hidden?
It leaves one breathless. Numb too.
What will it take for Congress to finally ! indict Eric Holder (and his assorted lackeys) on charges of illegal/lawless activities, and not just held in contempt of Congress?
Time will tell.
Barack Hussein Obama’s henchmen are groomed from the same revolutionary milieu as their boss – birds of a radical feather. In essence, rules are for lesser mortals, but not for those who are overlords of the unwashed masses. They really believe this. And this blogger takes umbrage at their disdain towards those they are (supposed to be) accountable to. How dare they.
Lest one thinks the above is hyperbole, think again. It is precisely this worldview, “laws for thee, but not for me” which permeates Obama’s regime, thus governing their behavior. A person can justifiably feel they have fallen into a looking glass, desperately attempting to extricate themselves from the madness.
Alas, this is an American nightmare – as well as a worldwide disaster – with Obama’s out of control gang at the helm of the free world! Could it get any more frightening ? Nope.
Eric Holder’s Department of “Justice” is mired in one lawless scandal after another, without let up. As discussed in ‘Alert: Radical-in-Chief Obama Tasks (il)Legally-Bent (AG) Holder…To ‘Criminalize Islamic Speech…Via Thuggish UN Dictates – 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/ – as well as here – ‘Barack Hussein Obama…The Radical/Thug-in-Chief…and His Subversive Underlings…Lurching From One Anti-American Disaster To Another’ – https://adinakutnicki.com/2012/07/27/barack-hussein-obama-the-radical-in-chief-his-subversive-underlings-lurching-from-one-anti-american-disaster-to-another-commentary-by-adina-kutnicki/ – the above are basically a foretaste of their ill intent.
So, it comes as little surprise that Holder is, once again, in the limelight, but not in a good way. His main consigliere, Perez (referenced in the above commentary) also finds himself repeatedly on the hot seat, going back to one of the “Justice” Department’s most egregious acts of flouting the law.
During the 2008 election, members of the ‘New Black Panthers’ (a Black supremacist, revolutionary, domestic terror group, whose head honcho visited Obama in the White House !) were caught on tape terrorizing voters, essentially intimidating them into voting for Barack Hussein Obama. Not only were they caught on film – dead-to-rights – but many complaints were lodged after the election, only to be subverted by Holder’s underlings! Foxes in the hen house.
However, this week’s piece of uplifting news included ‘Federal Court Finds Obama Appointees Interfered With New Black Panther Prosecution’. It says in part the following:
“A federal court in Washington, DC, held last week that political appointees appointed by President Obama did interfere with the Department of Justice’s prosecution of the New Black Panther Party…..The documents reveal that political appointees within DOJ were conferring about the status and resolution of the New Black Panther Party case in the days preceding the DOJ’s dismissal of claims in that case, which would appear to contradict Assistant Attorney General Perez’s testimony that political leadership was not involved in that decision. Surely the public has an interest in documents that cast doubt on the accuracy of government officials’ representations regarding the possible politicization of agency decision-making…..“The Court’s decision is another piece of evidence showing the Obama Justice Department is run by individuals who have a problem telling the truth,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said. “The decision shows that we can’t trust the Obama Justice Department to fairly administer our nation’s voting and election laws.”
Note, Perez’s sticky fingers are all over it, of course, at the behest of Holder, under the ‘buck stops here’ Barack Hussein Obama – http://washingtonexaminer.com/federal-court-finds-obama-appointees-interfered-with-new-black-panther-prosecution/article/2503500.
To make matters even more incriminating, for the already compromised ‘Justice’ Department, ‘Operation Fast & Furious’ is furiously tightening a noose around Holder & gang, hopefully bringing them even closer to the clanging of jail cells!
‘New Congressional Report Singles Out 5 ATF Officials In Fast & Furious…Will Holder Be Forced To Resign?’ – highlights here –
“Without any help from the Obama administration or the U.S. Department of Justice, GOP congressional investigators have determined that five senior officials with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) are together responsible for the failed federal gun-walking operation “Fast and Furious,” The Los Angeles Times reports….Those implicated go from the ATF special agent-in-charge of the Phoenix field office to the top official in the bureau’s Washington headquarters. Attorney General Eric Holder has always denied any involvement of officials in Washington, D.C…..The congressional investigators said the report, obtained Monday by the Los Angeles Times, holds “the best information available as of now” about Fast and Furious, which led to Holder being found in contempt of Congress for failing to provide duly subpoenaed documents….Two additional final reports will address “the devastating failure of supervision and leadership” at the DOJ and an “unprecedented obstruction of the [congressional] investigation by the highest levels of the Justice Department, including the attorney general himself.” – http://www.theblaze.com/stories/will-this-new-fast-and-furious-revelation-force-holder-to-resign-take-our-poll/.
Within a normal administration the above dredges (of lying scum) would hardly qualify as parking attendants, and comparing them would be an insult to hard working car jockeys. Yet, under Barack Hussein Obama’s reign they hold high law enforcement positions .
In a regime whereby integrity, honesty, duty and honor are foreign concepts, is it any wonder that the US is at the precipice, both domestically and foreign policy-wise?
In a nutshell, these folks are shameless. Most importantly, they are highly dangerous.
And those who hold themselves above the law, yet do everything in their power to place the boot of the law upon others, are no different than sociopaths and psychopaths.
Yup, this is Obama & gang to a tee!
