3 Convicted In "Home-Grown" Terrorism Case - Plot To Kill Troops

Seriously; The FBI needs to have about a 1000 counter-terrorism agents in the Toledo-Detroit-Dearborn-istan area. It's getting ridiculous. There's a whole lot more than the 3 of these guys planning jihad.

The convictions yesterday of three local men of Middle Eastern descent for terrorist-related crimes is being hailed by the federal government as a landmark victory in the war on terrorism.

Mohammad Amawi, Marwan El-Hindi, and Wassim Mazloum were found guilty by a jury in U.S. District Court in Toledo of conspiring to plan attacks to kill or injure U.S. troops in Iraq and other countries - a crime that carries a maximum penalty of life in prison - and providing materials and support to terrorists.

[...]

While it was not the first time that multiple defendants accused of terrorist acts were convicted of all counts in a jury trial, it was the first successful prosecution of defendants on the charge of distributing information about the making and use of an explosive device, a U.S. Justice Department spokesman said.

I'm friggin surrounded by jihadi's. They're in Cleveland, Columbus, Toledo, Dearborn, Detroit, and I live in the middle of it all.

Cleveland- Muslim Brotherhood, PIJ (Palestinian Islamic Jihad)

Columbus- Al Qaeda

Toledo- Iraqi Insurgency

Dearborn-istan- Hizballah

Detroit- Al Gama'at al Islamiyya, Muslim Brotherhood, Hizballah, Hamas, Al Qaeda

Happy Flag Day

Happy Flag Day to everyone. Don't forget to put it up if you have one.

A Thought About The Iowa Floods

Today the levee failed in Des Moines. People have already lost homes, vehicles, and other personal belongings in other parts of Iowa. I talked to a guy yesterday whose brother plays for the Iowa Hawkeyes. He told me his brother, along with other members of the football team, were out there filling and stacking sandbags.

There's little or no looting, people are spending time helping others or trying to save their belongs.

People are not running around like primates killing each other or shooting at news or rescue helicopters.

They're not sitting around waiting for the government to come save them.

They're not asking for the FEMA golden ticket so instead of necessities, they can buy designer purses or spend a day or so at a strip club.

Rewind a few years to when the levees broke in New Orleans.

Need I say more.

I will...the government blew up the levees because George Bush hates white people. There.

1,150 Prisoners, 400 Taliban Escape Afghan Prison

In a remarkable act of Afghani incompetence, Taliban terrorists were able to blow open a gate at a prison and allow inmates to escape.

Taliban insurgents blew open the gate of a main prison in the Afghan city of Kandahar on Friday, allowing hundreds of prisoners including suspected militants to escape, officials said.

Under cover of darkness, nearly all of an estimated 1,150 prisoners, including some 400 Taliban inmates, fled from the jail, two officials in the southern city of Kandahar told Reuters on condition of anonymity.

Another official said between 750 and 800 prisoners had managed to escape, adding some prisoners were killed in a gun battle between police and Taliban fighters inside the jail.

 

***UPDATE***

In a remarkable act of American judicial incompetence, the Supreme Court has set the groundwork for an equal number of prisoners to escape GITMO.

Who Is Barack Hussein Obama? Part II

Recently, I wrote a post titled "Who is Barack Hussein Obama? Part I" It was about the Black Liberation Theology that was being preached at his "church".

Today is part 2.

On Obama's super smear fighting website, it states:

Senator Obama has never been a Muslim, was not raised as a Muslim, and is a committed Christian.

However; Obama's half-brother seems to recall Obama being Muslim:

...if elected his brother will be a good president for the Jewish people, despite his Muslim background. In an interview with Army Radio he expressed a special salutation from the Obamas of Kenya

His sister also states that her whole family was Muslim

In an interview with the New York Times, published on April 30th, Maya Soetoro-Ng, Obama's younger half sister, told the Times, "My whole family was Muslim, and most of the people I knew were Muslim."

Time to throw brother and sis under the bus.

 

The campaign even issued a statement to the LA Times stating, "Obama is not a practicing Muslim". That statement is quite different from the website. Apparently his books also give some insight to his time in Indonesia attending a Muslim school.

In a statement to The Times on Wednesday, March 14, the campaign offered this statement: "Obama has never been a practicing Muslim. The statement added that as a child, Obama had spent time in the neighborhood's Islamic center. This is a departure from the earlier statement made by the Obama campaign on January 24. "To be clear, Senator Obama has never been a Muslim, was not raised a Muslim, and is a committed Christian who attends the United Church of Christ in Chicago.

In Senator Obama's two books, "Dreams From My Father" and "The Audacity of Hope," he wrote that he spent two years in a Muslim school and another two years in a Catholic school while living in Indonesia from age 6 to 10. Islam is Indonesia's dominant religion. Approximately 88% of the population of Indonesia is Muslim, making it the most populous Muslim-majority nation in the world. Indonesia has seen a dramatic rise in radical Islam in recent years.

 

The Chicago Tribune reports that Obama would occasionally go to the mosque with this step-father.

Obama and his mother moved from Honolulu to Jakarta to join Soetoro in 1967, when Obama was 6. Here, Obama became "Barry Soetoro."

In their first neighborhood, Obama occasionally followed his stepfather to the mosque for Friday prayers, a few neighbors said. But Soetoro usually was too busy working, first for the Indonesian army and later for a Western oil company.

More from the NY Times (Yes, the same NY Times)

He once got in trouble for making faces during Koran study classes in his elementary school

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.” [the shot at Alabama voters was actually in the article]

 

Who is Barack Obama? Is he Christian or Muslim? Even his own campaign can't get the story right.

Tennessee Dem Executive Committee Member: Obama May Be Terrorist Connected

Tennessee Democratic Party Executive Committee member Fred Hobbs has some interesting thoughts about Obama, none of which are a shining endorsement.

Tennessee Democratic Party Executive Committee member Fred Hobbs tells The City newspaper in Nashville, "I don't exactly approve of a lot of the things he stands for — and I'm not sure we know enough about him. He's got some bad connections, and he may be terrorist connected for all I can tell. It sounds kind of like he may be."

Obama's Super Smear Fighting Website Is Up!

What a waste of money and time this piece of crap is, they do very little to actually disprove allegations. I guess if you're writing it for your blind followers, it will work perfectly. However; this is obviously meant for others, and their answers to questions are minimal at best. Looks like a 5 year old is writing the "truth" section on the main page.

Here is an example of the super smear fighting website in action:

SMEAR:

Michelle Obama Says “Whitey” On a Tape

LIE: Rush Limbaugh says a tape exists of Michelle Obama using the word “whitey” from the pulpit of Trinity United

LIE: Blogger Larry Johnson writes “New and dramatic developments. This is a heads up. I'll post the news Monday morning by 0900 hours.”

LIE: Proven GOP sleazemeister Roger Stone says he has “credible evidence that some indelible record exists” of a tape of Michelle Obama using the term “whitey”

LIE: Blogger: “Tape was filmed between June 26th - July 1st 2004 in Chicago, IL at the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition Conference at Trinity United Church: specifically the Women‚ Event.”

 

TRUTH:

No Such Tape Exists

A single video showing Obama leading the Pledge of Allegiance is also there. Just in case you didn't think he was patriotic.

End Of The World Starts Today; Nuclear Baby Is Born

The House of Yahweh says the nuclear baby was conceived on Sept. 12, 2007.  Today is nine months later and the nuclear baby is born and the nuclear holocaust begins.

Supposedly; the nuclear baby will kill 1/3 of the people around the Euphrates river. The Euphrates river runs through Iraq, Syria, & Turkey.

Never mind that they said the same thing last year. Except the nuclear baby was born in 2006 and the apocalypse was to begin in 2007.

So get yer' tin foil hats, duct tape, & plastic and wait out the apocalypse.

This Day In History

On this day in 1967, the Six Day War came to end with Israel soundly defeating the Arab countries of Syria, Jordan, & Egypt. Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Algeria, & Kuwait provided support for their fellow Arab countries.

This also began the palestinian mess because none of the Arab countries wanted to reclaim the land the palestinians inhabited before the Six Day War.

Hillary's Done, Endorses Obama

We knew she would officially drop out soon, but the endorsement is surprising. She's really trying to kiss up to grab that V.P. spot. There's a whole lot of Clinton supporters that refuse to back Obama so adding her to his campaign won't help much.

Hillary Rodham Clinton ended her historic campaign for the presidency on Saturday and told supporters to unite behind rival Barack Obama, closing out a race that was as grueling as it was groundbreaking.

The former first lady, who as recently as Tuesday declared herself the strongest candidate, gave Obama an unqualified endorsement and pivoted from her role as determined foe to absolute ally.

"The way to continue our fight now to accomplish the goals for which we stand is to take our energy, our passion, our strength and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama, the next president of the United States," she said in a speech before cheering supporters packed into the ornate National Building Museum, not far from the White House she longed to govern from.

"Today as I suspend my campaign, I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run. I endorse him and throw my full support behind him and I ask of you to join me in working as hard for Barack Obama as you have for me," the New York senator said in her 28-minute address.

How The Media Would Report Normandy Today

I posted this last year and thought since we are on the anniversary of D-Day, I would repost the video.

America Is An Obamanation!

This is hilarious.

Obama Fundraiser Tony Renzko Convicted On 16 Of 24 Charges

It doesn't matter that he was convicted of  scamming people, this will be spun as another case of whitey keeping the black man down. However; it seems like more investigation will be done in regards to Renzko's business deals with Obama and their charity contributions.

U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald told reporters the verdict represented "an antidote to the poison of corruption" that testimony alleged included the fixing of state boards that controlled a $40 billion pension fund and made major decisions about hospital construction.

The nine-week trial included explosive testimony about all-night drug-fueled parties involving the government's star witness and allegations that Blagojevich personally discussed a state job for a donor.

Political corruption in Illinois has been deemed so extensive that the FBI has sent an extra official corruption squad into the state. Federal officials say the investigation is far from over.

[...]

Rezko's conviction also intensifies the spotlight on his relationship with Obama. Rezko has known Obama since he entered politics, raised money for his Illinois campaigns and was involved in a 2005 real estate deal with him. Obama has donated $150,000 in Rezko-related contributions to charity.

The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee is accused of no wrongdoing and his name was barely mentioned at trial, but Republicans are unlikely to let voters forget about his ties to Rezko as the presidential race heats up.

[...]

Rezko, a Chicago real estate developer and fast-food entrepreneur, was convicted of six counts of mail fraud, six counts of wire fraud, two counts of aiding and abetting bribery and two counts of money laundering.

Obama Uses Police Memorial As Porta-Potty

Quite a gang of geniuses Obama has working for him. They tell the company to drop the Porta-potties on top of a Portland police memorial for fallen officers.

 

Police officers in Portland, Oregon, are still waiting for an apology from Barack Obama after campaign staffers of his recent rally in Portland, Oregon, setup porta potties directly on top of the Portland Police Memorial, which honors the agency’s 25 fallen police officers.

The Obama rally drew a crowd of over 75,000 people.

Officer Thomas Brennan, who was working overtime at the rally, took a picture of the offending toilets, with the American flag still at half mast because of Police Officers Memorial Day, directly behind them. The local law enforcement memorial service had been held at the site only five days earlier.

The campaigns excuse for putting the toilets there, "the toilets were placed on the memorial for safety reasons to accommodate wheelchair access".

Who Is Barack Hussein Obama? Part I

I'm a bit disgruntled today over my fellow Americans lack of good judgement. It takes something like this to get me all riled up to do more research.

I found an interesting video portrait of Obama today. [Dial-up users beware, it's 13+ min. long]

 

 

A particular part of the video that caught my attention was the discussion of Black Liberation Theology. Obama's Pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, brought up the topic of Black Liberation Theology during an interview with Sean Hannity on Hannity & Colmes. I have never heard of this theology before, so I decided to take a look.

Black Liberation Theology can be summed up in a few words. Racist, Victimology, & Marxist.

Black Liberation Theology actually encourages a victim mentality among blacks. John McWhorters' book Losing the Race, will be helpful here. Victimology, says McWhorter, is the adoption of victimhood as the core of one's identity -- for example, like one who suffers through living in "a country and who lived in a culture controlled by rich white people." It is a subconscious, culturally inherited affirmation that life for blacks in America has been in the past and will be in the future a life of being victimized by the oppression of whites. In today's terms, it is the conviction that, 40 years after the Civil Rights Act, conditions for blacks have not substantially changed. As Wright intimates, for example, scores of black men regularly get passed over by cab drivers.

[...]

One of the pillars of Obama's home church, Trinity United Church of Christ, is "economic parity." On the website, Trinity claims that God is not pleased with "America's economic mal-distribution." Among all of controversial comments by Jeremiah Wright, the idea of massive wealth redistribution is the most alarming. The code language "economic parity" and references to "mal-distribution" is nothing more than channeling the twisted economic views of Karl Marx. Black Liberation theologians have explicitly stated a preference for Marxism as an ethical framework for the black church because Marxist thought is predicated on a system of oppressor class (whites) versus victim class (blacks).

[...]

Perhaps it is the Marxism imbedded in Obama's attendance at Trinity Church that should raise red flags. "Economic parity" and "distribution" language implies things like government-coerced wealth redistribution, perpetual minimum wage increases, government subsidized health care for all, and the like. One of the priorities listed on Obama's campaign website reads, "Obama will protect tax cuts for poor and middle class families, but he will reverse most of the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest taxpayers."

Black Liberation Theology, originally intended to help the black community, may have actually hurt many blacks by promoting racial tension, victimology, and Marxism which ultimately leads to more oppression. As the failed "War on Poverty" has exposed, the best way to keep the blacks perpetually enslaved to government as "daddy" is to preach victimology, Marxism, and to seduce blacks into thinking that upward mobility is someone else's responsibility in a free society.

I found the Marxism equation in the theology particularly interested since an Obama campaign office in Houston proudly displayed a Che Guevara flag.
