ReplyDelete“Thank God for the Saudis and Prince Bandar,” John McCain told CNN’s Candy Crowley in January 2014. “Thank God for the Saudis and Prince Bandar, and for our Qatari friends,” the senator said once again a month later, at the Munich Security Conference.
McCain was praising Prince Bandar bin Sultan, then the head of Saudi Arabia’s intelligence services and a former ambassador to the United States, for supporting forces fighting Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria. McCain and Senator Lindsey Graham had previously met with Bandar to encourage the Saudis to arm Syrian rebel forces.
But shortly after McCain’s Munich comments, Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah relieved Bandar of his Syrian covert-action portfolio, which was then transferred to Saudi Interior Minister Prince Mohammed bin Nayef. By mid-April, just two weeks after President Obama met with King Abdullah on March 28, Bandar had also been removed from his position as head of Saudi intelligence—according to official government statements, at “his own request.” Sources close to the royal court told me that, in fact, the king fired Bandar over his handling of the kingdom’s Syria policy and other simmering tensions, after initially refusing to accept Bandar’s offers to resign. (Bandar retains his title as secretary-general of the king’s National Security Council.)
The Free Syrian Army (FSA), the “moderate” armed opposition in the country, receives a lot of attention. But two of the most successful factions fighting Assad’s forces are Islamist extremist groups: Jabhat al-Nusra and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), the latter of which is now amassing territory in Iraq and threatening to further destabilize the entire region. And that success is in part due to the support they have received from two Persian Gulf countries: Qatar and Saudi Arabia.
Qatar’s military and economic largesse has made its way to Jabhat al-Nusra, to the point that a senior Qatari official told me he can identify al-Nusra commanders by the blocks they control in various Syrian cities. But ISIS is another matter. As one senior Qatari official stated, “ISIS has been a Saudi project.”
ISIS, in fact, may have been a major part of Bandar’s covert-ops strategy in Syria. The Saudi government, for its part, has denied allegations, including claims made by Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, that it has directly supported ISIS. But there are also signs that the kingdom recently shifted its assistance—whether direct or indirect—away from extremist factions in Syria and toward more moderate opposition groups.

ReplyDeleteISIS Praises John McCain For helping Them Invade Iraq
ReplyDeleteThe Muslim terrorist group, ISIS, issued a statement attributing their success to the Iraq war, and they had John McCain to thank for it. In the statement they wrote:
…the crusader John McCain came to the Senate floor to rant irritably about the victories the Islamic State was achieving in Iraq. He forgot that he himself participated in the invasion of Iraq that led to the blessed events unfolding today by Allah’s bounty and justice.
It is true, the war in Iraq that was started by Bush led to the enabling ISIS to commit the massacres and violence it is doing now. ISIS knows that Saddam would have not tolerated them, and would have without hesitated cut them to pieces, as his predecessor Nebuchadnezzar would have done.
Iraq does not need democracy, but a fierce dictatorship like Saddam. But thanks to John McCain and his ilk, we have devils like ISIS invading Iraq and butchering Christians, and the jihadists are thanking McCain for their victories and atrocities.

SHANGAL—Kurdish Peshmerga forces have entered Shangal, said military officials, and they have cornered militants of the Islamic State in parts of the town.
ReplyDeleteRudaw reporter in the area said that units from the 10,000-strong Peshmarga force who had encircled the town earlier in the day are now in the town center and try to rout the Islamic militants.
The Peshmerga were able to enter Shangal following a heavy bombardment of the Rahman and Nasir sectors where the militants had taken position.
Meanwhile, a large Peshmerga forces have made their way to the Shangal mountainside where thousands of Yezidi families have taken shelter.
Rudaw reporter says that the Peshmerga have made progress in their counteroffensive near Zumar where they intend to cut off the IS militants from retreating into Syria.
The IS are said to have demolished the Zumar bridge in anticipation of the Peshmerga advance.
The Kurdish forces went on the offensive on Sunday after Islamic militants captured Shangal 200 kilometers west of Erbil.
“We decided to go on the offensive and fight the terrorists to the last breath,” said Kurdistan Region President Massoud Barzani Monday afternoon. “We have ordered the Peshmerga to attack the terrorists and enemies of Kurdistan with all their power.”
Barzani said that the Kurdish forces “will not relinquish an inch of Kurdistan and we will defend our dear Yezidi brothers and sisters.”
Earlier in the day, Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki ordered the Iraqi air force to assist the Peshmerga in their fight against the IS militants.
According to Rudaw reporter in the region, Iraqi jets bombed militant positions in Shangal and Zumar today.
Unofficial sources told Rudaw that members of the Peoples Protection Units (YPG) have joined the Peshmerga fight against the Islamic militants. Ten Kurdish volunteer fighters were also reported to have reached Shangal from Turkey.

DeleteIntellectual hubris hampers presidential geniuses
By Noemie Emery | August 5, 2014 | 6:31 pm
Topics: Barack Obama President History
Photo - John Quincy Adams was considered one of America's most intellectual presidents, but was neither successful nor happy in office. (iStock) John Quincy Adams was considered one of America's most intellectual presidents, but was neither...
It’s now two and a half years to the can’t-come-too-soon end of President Obama’s adventure, but his legacy seems to be settled already; he is the smartest man in all of U.S. history to screw up so many big things.
That he is brilliant is something we already knew. "This is a guy whose IQ is off the charts," Michael Beschloss said of Obama, who was the "smartest guy" to be president. Christopher Buckley said he was first class in temperament and intellectual prowess, boosting him two slots above Franklin D. Roosevelt in the gray matter arena. "You could see him as a New Republic writer," said David Brooks, closing the argument.
But fact that this genius has become a disaster became clear in mid-June when the Middle East imploded, matching his health care debacle with its foreign equivalent. The non-connection of political wisdom to what intellectuals think makes for intelligence was never more painfully clear.
Sign Up for the Politics Today newsletter!
Democrats are quick to lay claim to the mantle of intellect, at least in the more modern age: Jimmy Carter was said to be smarter than Gerald Ford, everyone was said to be smarter than Ronald Reagan, Michael Dukakis was said to be smarter than George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton said to be smarter than all except his wife, Hillary, and Al Gore and John Kerry much smarter than George W. Bush, whose SAT scores, the New York Times told us, had to be much, much lower than Kerry’s, until it was found they were not.
DeleteThis does not explain how the Gipper (the "amiable dunce" in the Clark Clifford telling) turned out to be rated as the best president since Franklin Roosevelt, the man whom Oliver Wendell Holmes once proclaimed had a "first-rate temperament," though only a third-level mind. But with his "gentleman’s C" he was miles ahead of our two greatest presidents, whose formal schooling never passed what we would call middle school, and were widely mocked by elites of their day.
John Adams mocked George Washington; Henry Adams found little to like in Abraham Lincoln or Theodore Roosevelt, and John Quincy Adams never got over his loss to Andrew Jackson, becoming irate when his alma mater bestowed a degree on his unlettered successor in 1833. As he wrote to the president of the university (who was his cousin), "I could not be present to see my darling Harvard disgrace herself by conferring a Doctor’s degree upon a barbarian and a savage who could scarcely spell his own name." The "savage," of course, knew how to get to the point of the matter in a way that scholars can’t master. "The only Latin I know is E Pluribus Unum," he said.
Is it coincidence that our three most intellectual presidents — John Adams, James Madison, and John Quincy Adams — were neither successful nor happy in in office, found it the least happy period of their long and productive careers?
Michael Dukakis, called a great brain because he took a book on Swedish land use policies to read on vacation, was never able to explain why it was prudent to give murderers unsupervised furloughs, an idea that elites found humane and progressive, and voters found mad. Similarly, Obama is in trouble because he could not get his brain around two base rules of politics so commonsense and self-evident as to need no explanation whatever: big and transformative laws cannot survive without deep, broad support from the public; the absence of power invites aggression, and withdrawing the carrots and sticks of American power from tense situations asks unbridled hell to step in.
Children should know this, which is why it eludes the more snotty among us — who should never be heard from again.

DeleteZbigniew Brzezinski:
How Jimmy Carter and I Started the Mujahideen
by Alexander Cockburn And Jeffrey St. Clair
Q: The former director of the CIA, Robert Gates, stated in his memoirs ["From the Shadows"], that American intelligence services began to aid the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan 6 months before the Soviet intervention. In this period you were the national security adviser to President Carter. You therefore played a role in this affair. Is that correct?
Brzezinski: Yes. According to the official version of history, CIA aid to the Mujahadeen began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, 24 Dec 1979. But the reality, secretly guarded until now, is completely otherwise: Indeed, it was July 3, 1979 that President Carter signed the first directive for secret aid to the opponents of the pro-Soviet regime in Kabul. And that very day, I wrote a note to the president in which I explained to him that in my opinion this aid was going to induce a Soviet military intervention.
http://www.counterpunch.org/1998/01/15/how-jimmy-carter-and-i-started-the-mujahideen/
Brzezinski: What is most important to the history of the world? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet empire? Some stirred-up Moslems or the liberation of Central Europe and the end of the cold war?
DeleteQ: Some stirred-up Moslems? But it has been said and repeated: Islamic fundamentalism represents a world menace today.
Brzezinski: Nonsense! It is said that the West had a global policy in regard to Islam. That is stupid. There isn’t a global Islam. Look at Islam in a rational manner and without demagoguery or emotion.
It is the leading religion of the world with 1.5 billion followers.
But what is there in common among Saudi Arabian fundamentalism, moderate Morocco, Pakistan militarism, Egyptian pro-Western or Central Asian secularism? Nothing more than what unites the Christian countries.
Now there is no doubt of Brzezinski's influence in the Obama Administration ....
DeleteCNN: Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu on CNN told Wolf Blitzer that the invasion of Gaza was a strategy to demilitarize Gaza, explaining the use of force. But it has been quite a robust use of force…Do you think that it is going to succeed, the Israeli strategy?
Brzezinski: No, I think he is making a very serious mistake. When Hamas in effect accepted the notion of participation in the Palestinian leadership, it in effect acknowledged the determination of that leadership to seek a peaceful solution with Israel. That was a real option. They should have persisted in that.
Instead Netanyahu launched the campaign of defamation against Hamas, seized on the killing of three innocent Israeli kids to immediately charge Hamas with having done it without any evidence, and has used that to stir up public opinion in Israel in order to justify this attack on Gaza, which is so lethal.
I think he is isolating Israel.
He's endangering its longer-range future.
And I think we ought to make it very clear that this is a course of action which we thoroughly disapprove and which we do not support and which may compel us and the rest of the international community to take some steps of legitimizing Palestinian aspirations perhaps in the U.N.

DeleteSecuring the Realm: At about the Year 2000 the work would start…
Although tweaked, the Yinon Plan is in motion and coming to life under the "Clean Break." This is through a policy document written in 1996 by Richard Perle and the Study Group on "A New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000" for Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel at the time. Perle was a former Pentagon under-secretary for Roland Reagan at the time and later a U.S. military advisor to George W. Bush Jr. and the White House. Aside from Perle, the rest of the members of the Study Group on "A New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000" consisted of James Colbert (Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs), Charles Fairbanks Jr. (Johns Hopkins University), Douglas Feith (Feith and Zell Associates), Robert Loewenberg (Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies), Jonathan Torop (The Washington Institute for Near East Policy), David Wurmser (Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies), and Meyrav Wurmser (Johns Hopkins University). "A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm" is the full name of this 1996 Israel policy paper.
In many senses the U.S. is executing the objectives outlined in Tel Aviv’s 1996 policy paper to secure the "realm." Moreover, the term "realm" implies the strategic mentality of the authors. A realm refers to either the territory ruled by a monarch or the territories that fall under a monarch’s reign, but are not physically under their control and have vassals running them. In this context, the word realm is being used to denote the Middle East as the kingdom of Tel Aviv. The fact that Perle, someone who has essentially been a career Pentagon official, helped author the Israeli paper also makes one ask if the conceptualized sovereign of the realm is either Israel, the United States, or both?
Securing the Realm: The Israeli Blueprints to Destabilize Damascus
The 1996 Israeli document calls for "rolling back Syria" sometime around the year 2000 or afterward by pushing the Syrians out of Lebanon and destabilizing the Syrian Arab Republic with the help of Jordan and Turkey. This has respectively taken place in 2005 and 2011. The 1996 document states: "Israel can shape its strategic environment, in cooperation with Turkey and Jordan, by weakening, containing, and even rolling back Syria. This effort can focus on removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq — an important Israeli strategic objective in its own right — as a means of foiling Syria’s regional ambitions."

Ioannis Ieropoulos and his team at Bristol Robotics Laboratory are studying how to produce electricity from urine, The Economist reports.
Live organisms in microbial fuel cells feed off of urine, according to the magazine:
When urine flows through an MFC the microbes consume it as part of their normal metabolic process. This, in turn, frees electrons. Electrodes within the cell gather these electrons and when they are connected to an external circuit a current is generated.
Funded in part by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to research next generation sanitation, the researchers are looking at the process to also treat wastewater and produce fertilizer.
“It’s quite fascinating,” Ieropoulos said. “We are developing something that is for the better of humankind.”

Hamas Combat Manual Explains Benefits of Using Human Shields
By Neil Snyder
This is one of the many positive things to come out of Operation Protective Edge. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has found a Hamas combat manual explaining the importance of using human shields. Below is an excerpt from the IDF report:
IDF forces in the Gaza Strip found a Hamas manual on “Urban Warfare,” which belonged to the Shuja’iya Brigade of Hamas’ military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades. The manual explains how the civilian population can be used against IDF forces and reveals that Hamas knows the IDF is committed to minimizing harm to civilians.
Throughout Operation Protective Edge, Hamas has continuously used the civilian population of Gaza as human shields. The discovery of a Hamas “urban warfare” manual by IDF forces reveals that Hamas’ callous use of the Gazan population was intentional and preplanned.
This Hamas urban warfare manual exposes two truths: (1) The terror group knows full well that the IDF will do what it can to limit civilian casualties. (2) The terror group exploits these efforts by using civilians as human shields against advancing IDF forces.
In a portion entitled “Limiting the Use of Weapons,” the manual explains that:
The soldiers and commanders (of the IDF) must limit their use of weapons and tactics that lead to the harm and unnecessary loss of people and [destruction of] civilian facilities. It is difficult for them to get the most use out of their firearms, especially of supporting fire [e.g. artillery].
Clearly Hamas knows the IDF will limit its use of weapons in order to avoid harming civilians, including refraining from using larger firepower to support for infantry.
The manual goes on to explain that the “presence of civilians are pockets of resistance” that cause three major problems for advancing troops:
(1) Problems with opening fire (2) Problems in controlling the civilian population during operations and afterward (3) Assurance of supplying medical care to civilians who need it
Lastly, the manual discusses the benefits for Hamas when civilian homes are destroyed:
The destruction of civilian homes: This increases the hatred of the citizens towards the attackers [the IDF] and increases their gathering [support] around the city defenders (resistance forces[i.e. Hamas]).
It is clear that Hamas actually desires the destruction of homes and civilian infrastructure, knowing it will increase hatred for the IDF and support their fighters.
I’m ashamed that the IDF felt the need to report it because it should be patently obvious to everyone by now. An imbecile should know it, especially since we have video footage of Hamas firing rockets from hospitals, mosques, and schools, and we know that they stored weapons in U.N. schools.
Physical evidence is not enough for a large number of people who are either brain-dead morons or anti-Semites to the core. I’m afraid that masses of people live by this principle: I’ve made up my mind and facts don’t matter. I just wish they understood that they are complicit in Hamas’ actions since their support is an important reason why Hamas uses human shields. If the public reacted negatively, they would stop it.
So rest easy tonight Hamas supporters, if you can. If I were complicit in murder it would trouble me greatly.

Report: Nearly 10% of ISIS Fighters Are Turkish
ReplyDeleteTurkey Issues Gag Order on Mosul Hostage Crisis
by Jason Ditz, August 05, 2014
As ISIS continues to expand its control over Iraq and Syria, the nature of the group and its membership are coming under increasing scrutiny, as is the Turkish factor, particularly important as ISIS now spans much of Turkey’s southern border.
According to Germany’s Die Welt, of the estimated 10,000 to 15,000 ISIS members, some 1,000 of them are known to be Turkish citizens. The group has recruited worldwide, but such a broad Turkish contingent could be significant given their proximity to southern Turkey.
ISIS, along with other rebel factions, have used Turkey as a staging area as well as a source of fighters. In addition to the Turkish citizens, some 1,200 people from EU member nations have joined ISIS as well, also traveling through Turkey.
Turkey’s problem with ISIS is only going to grow, and the Erdogan government is trying to keep the media from covering it too broadly, imposing a gag order on stories about the 49 Turkish citizens captured by ISIS in early June. The situation remains unresolved, but essentially uncoverable inside Turkey.
ISIS is the same as the Moslem Brotherhood and Hamas.

ReplyDeleteThe vicar of the only Anglican church in Iraq fears ISIS is literally getting away with murder in Iraq as the world turns its gaze to fighting between Israel and Hamas.
Canon Andrew White, vicar of St George's church in Baghdad, said in a newsletter published by the Catholic News Service that ISIS was free to do what it wanted as the world's attention remained fixed on the latest conflict in Gaza.
ISIS militants have taken over Mosul and other parts of Iraq, causing thousands of Christians to flee after they were told to convert, pay a jizhya tax or else be killed.
Canon White said that although the situation was serious for Iraqis under ISIS, it was "very easy to feel forgotten".
"The Islamic State simply said we can do anything now the world is just looking at Gaza," he wrote.
"In reality that is true. Iraq seems like old news, yet things just get worse and worse here.

Gaza crisis: UK government policy falling into disarray
ReplyDeleteClegg demands suspension of arms export licences to Israel after Warsi resigns saying Cameron has lost moral authority
Patrick Wintour and Rowena Mason
The Guardian, Tuesday 5 August 2014
The government's policy towards the Israeli incursion into Gaza was in danger of falling apart on Tuesday night in the wake of the surprise resignation of the Foreign Office minister Sayeeda Warsi and a demand by Nick Clegg that Britain immediately suspend arms export licences to Israel.
Lady Warsi said the prime minister had lost moral authority, undermined the national interest and deprived Britain of its historic role as an honest broker in the Middle East by refusing to condemn the aggressive Israeli response to the Hamas rocket attacks as disproportionate.
In her strongly worded resignation letter, whose morning publication came as a surprise to No 10, Warsi warned that "our approach and language during the current crisis in Gaza is morally indefensible [and] is not in Britain's national interest".
She also complained that Cameron's response may become "a basis for radicalisation [which] could have consequences for us for years to come".
Her departure came after internal argument inside the National Security Council over Cameron's refusal to condemn the aggressive Israeli response to the Hamas rocket attacks.
British ministers have condemned the outcome of the Israeli bombings as intolerable and appalling, but Cameron has barred ministers from describing the Israeli bombings as disproportionate, and refused to attribute final blame prematurely even for some of the attacks on UN schools in Gaza.
England has a large, radical Islamist population that will also need to be put in check or England will have violence in Londonstan.

It's going to get interesting and it has NOTHING to do with Israel.
Israel’s continuing restrictions on economic development in Palestine are causing so much suffering and such “deep resentment” that they now threaten to undermine rather than preserve the country’s security, a cross-party group of British MPs has warned.
ReplyDeleteIn a report on the UK’s development work in the occupied territories (OPTs), the international development committee (IDC) argues that Israel’s policies – which include restrictions on building, access to water, and 3G and 4G for Palestinian mobile providers – are proving seriously counterproductive.
Members of the committee said they had been shocked by what they had seen during a visit in March. “We saw a country whose people have known immense suffering now imposing conditions on their Palestinian neighbours which cause a different but very real suffering and often without real security justification,” says the report.
“We saw Israel taking a range of actions that hinder Palestinian economic development and must, at the very least, cause deep resentment on the Palestinian side, even amongst the most moderate and pragmatic people, and so will actually worsen Israel’s own security.”
Such restrictions, the report adds, are stymying economic development and fuelling anger. “In Gaza, from where rockets have been indiscriminately launched on Israel, restrictions, in particular on movements, are even more severe than on the West Bank: ordinary Gazans are not generally allowed to leave Gaza, whilst trade is heavily restricted.”
Hamas used 900,000 TONS of concrete and countless billions of misdirected aid to build tunnels and buy rockets.
DeleteIsrael's restrictions would not have stopped the Gazans from building malls, schools, homes and parks for the betterment of it's people.
The reason there were "blocked" items? Hamas used them to make war.
Now that Hamas has been severely defanged and beaten like the bitch that it is?
It will now try to turn the ass kicked it got into some type of "victory", but the buzz on the street?
Arabia, Egypt, UAE, the PA, Jordan, Israel are all working together to CHANGE the political situation in Gaza and SIDELINE Hamas.

ReplyDeleteIsrael caused $5 billion in damage to Gaza, 40,000 Homes Destroyed or Damaged
By contributors | Aug. 6, 2014 |
BETHLEHEM (Ma’an) — Israel’s offensive on Gaza has caused over $5 billion of damage to homes and infrastructure in the Strip, the Minister of Public Works said …
Some 10,000 homes have been completely destroyed, and 30,000 homes partially destroyed, al-Hasayneh said.
“The three areas that have undergone the most intense destruction are Shujaiyya, Beit Hanoun, and Abasan,” the minister said.
“Ministry crews were astonished when they arrived to Shujaiyya, where some 110,000 people live. Sixty percent of the homes were completely destroyed, especially those in the eastern part of the neighborhood.”
The minister said it would take $5 billion to rebuild structures alone, “not including possessions, like furniture and cars.”
“The offensive destroyed buildings belonging to Gaza governorates, in addition to police stations and national security buildings,” al-Hasayneh said.
The diesel containers belonging to Gaza’s power plant have been destroyed as well, he said.
Al-Hasayneh says the “containers will cost $25 million, and there are ten power lines that supply Gaza with power and have been cut off” as well.
He added that 70 percent water wells had been completely destroyed, “in addition to waste water lines.”
According to UN figures, up to 485,000 people — a quarter of Gaza’s population — has been forced to leave their homes throughout the assault on the Strip.
Many of them will return to find their homes destroyed or damaged.
Hamas and ISIS are the same.
DeleteBetter question, how many of the ISIS/Hamas nazis did Israel kill.
And better question, how many of the Hamas/ISIS, now defeated in Gaza, will flee to parts in Iraq and Syria?
ISRAEL PREFERS al-QAEDA
DeleteIsrael’s Ambassador to the United States Michael Oren told the Jerusalem Post that Israel so wanted Assad out and his Iranian backers weakened, that Israel would accept al-Qaeda operatives taking power in Syria.
“We always wanted Bashar Assad to go, we always preferred the bad guys who weren’t backed by Iran to the bad guys who were backed by Iran.”
Even if the other “bad guys” were affiliated with al-Qaeda.
“We understand that they are pretty bad guys,” Oren said in the interview.

Ah.... It's beginning....
ReplyDeleteThe Egyptian army announced on Monday that its military had destroyed three tunnels on the border with the Gaza Strip, killing eleven fighters in the process.
"Army troops raided terrorists' hideouts in Northern Sinai, killing 11 terrorists in the ensuing clashes," spokesman Mohamed Samir wrote on his official Facebook page.
He said the army destroyed three vehicles and eight motorbikes used by the militants.
"Three tunnels on the border with the Gaza Strip have also been destroyed," added the army spokesman.
The army has launched a major offensive against militant groups said to be based in the Sinai Peninsula, which shares borders with both Israel and the Gaza Strip.
Egypt is now killing Hamas and destroying more tunnels...
Reader, please understand this is much bigger news than will likely be reported elsewhere. Remember, Egypt was until recently, a pro-Hamas/Muslim Brotherhood regime, having come to that disturbing result with aid from the Obama administration. The Obama White House continues to indicate “concern” over how Egyptian military officials kicked out the extremist Muslim Brotherhood – the very organization Valerie Jarrett has strong ties to in Washington D.C. With Egypt now indicating it is prepared to open fire on both Hamas and ISIS should they threaten its borders, the North African nation is also positioning itself opposite the Middle East goals of the Obama regime as well.
Deletehttp://ulstermanbooks.com/egypt-prepares-turn-guns-hamas-isis-video/
Egypt and Israel BOTH get it. Obama supported the Moslem Brotherhood and Hamas AND ISIS
Unlike the quick to flee Iraqi military, Egypt’s forces are well trained, and far more dedicated to defending the nation. Both ISIS and Hamas would face an opponent more than capable of fighting back. Interestingly, the current animosity between the current Egyptian government and Islamic militant groups surrounding its borders has made it a seemingly closer ally to Israel than Israel is to the United States and the Obama administration.
DeleteThat is a swap that is worthy of making.
DeleteWell if America is going to support Hamas and the Moslem Brotherhood? Lawlessness and no border control, printing 18 trillion in quantitative easing, throwing American allies under the bus while stoking fires across the globe and doing nothing to slow down or counter china and russia?
DeleteAmerica aint much of an ally... In fact, America is shooting it's self in the head.

Islamic State jihadists ruling over much of Syria and Iraq have a new icon, whose fashionably styled curly hair and black-rimmed glasses contrast strikingly with the pose in which he has been photographed: astride a horse, and waving a shining scimitar above his head.
Identified by friends as a young Egyptian university graduate from a well-off Cairo family, Islam Yaken, he has been both lionised and demonised back home as the "hipster jihadi".
Although he is said to have once been a supporter of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood former president, Mohammed Morsi, his friends say there was little to suggest his sudden change of life direction a year ago.
His page on the social media site VK suggest a young man apparently obsessed with his body - it is dominated by a series of pictures of him in a gym, showing off his toned physique.
Now he uses Twitter to glorify the "Caliphate" of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State, and to post gory pictures including one of two heads in a basket, which he compares to the heads of sheep that can be ordered for the table in specialist Egyptian restaurants.

ReplyDelete$619 billion missing from federal transparency site
By Rick Moran
The irony is thick with this one. A government audit has found that a website dedicated to making federal spending "more transparent" can't find $619 billion.
USA Today:
And the data that does exist is wildly inaccurate, according to the Government Accountability Office, which looked at 2012 spending data. Only 2% to 7% of spending data on USASpending.gov is "fully consistent with agencies' records," according to the report.
Among the data missing from the 6-year-old federal website:
• The Department of Health and Human Services failed to report nearly $544 billion, mostly in direct assistance programs like Medicare. The department admitted that it should have reported aggregate numbers of spending on those programs.
• The Department of the Interior did not report spending for 163 of its 265 assistance programs because, the department said, its accounting systems were not compatible with the data formats required by USASpending.gov. The result: $5.3 billion in spending missing from the website.
• The White House itself failed to report any of the programs it's directly responsible for. At the Office of National Drug Control Policy, which is part of the White House, officials said they thought HHS was responsible for reporting their spending.
For more than 22% of federal awards, the spending website literally doesn't know where the money went. The "place of performance" of federal contracts was most likely to be wrong.
That's a problem, said Sen. Tom Carper, D-Del., the chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee.
"We live in a world in which information drives decisions," Carper said. "And, given the budget constraints that our government faces, we need reliable information on how and where our money is being spent."
No, this doesn't mean that $619 billion has been "lost," although some of it may have, indeed, gone down a black hole. What it means is that we have incompetents running federal departments. How can HHS not report $544 billion? Madness.
I'm sure the government will eventually get it all sorted out - mostly. The good news is that responsibility for the website is being switched to a department of the Treasury.
At least they have an idea how to count money.

Delete"Civilian or Not? New Fight in Tallying the Dead From the Gaza Conflict
ReplyDeleteGAZA CITY — Inside the Health Sciences Library at Al-Shifa Hospital here, a small team spent the war crunching numbers. Stuck to their laptops were a statistician, a graphic designer, a data-entry specialist and an issuer of death certificates, some of whom spent nights sleeping in their straight-backed chairs.
By Tuesday, this is what they had come up with: 1,865 “martyrs” from “Israeli aggression” since July 6: 429 under age 18, 79 over 60, 243 women. The Palestinian Ministry of Health does not categorize victims as civilian or combatant, but others do: The United Nations — which had a lower death toll, 1,814 — said that at least 72 percent were civilians, while two Gaza-based groups put the percentage at 82 (Al Mezan Center for Human Rights) and 84 (the Palestinian Center for Human Rights).
Israel has a very different assessment. The military says it took the lives of 900 “terrorists,” but it did not provide specifics beyond the 368 cases listed in 28 entries on its blog. Politicians have been saying that 47 percent of the dead were fighters, citing a study by an Israeli counterterrorism group that is impressive in its documentation, using photographs and Internet tributes, but analyzes only the first 152 casualties, when the assault was exclusively from the air.

John Bolton: ‘The World's Descending Into Chaos’ Under Obama
ReplyDelete"...you're going to have anarchy increasing."
On Fox Business Wednesday, former ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton declared that under the president’s ineffective leadership, “the world’s descending into chaos” and if America continues to pull back internationally, "you're going to have anarchy increasing."
Speaking with host Stuart Varney, Bolton first discussed Vladimir Putin’s hostile strategy in Ukraine and Europe, including increasing the number of Russian troops at the border and conducting cyber-warfare against several European countries—“aggressive” tactics to which Bolton saw no end in sight.
Varney then transitioned to the recent WSJ/NBC poll that presents damning numbers about the American people’s opinion of President Obama’s leadership—particularly in foreign policy, with a dismal 36% approval.
Bolton: Yeah, I’d like to know who those 36% are because the world’s descending into chaos. And I think this poll and the drop in approval numbers overall, gives the lie to the conventional political wisdom that Americans don’t care about foreign policy, that it’s too remote from their lives.
I think the American people are much more sensible and practical than their political leaders, and they see that because our economy here at home depends on a global economy that instability in Europe can have a profound effect...
DeleteVarney argued that the American public has become used to the 24-hour news cycle, and expects stories like Ukraine to be resolved, but they are “just not going away.”
Bolton responded, “It’s just the tip of the iceberg,” pointing out that Putin broadcasted his intentions eight years ago, but was being met by "no effective American or European resistance":
Bolton: It’s just the tip of the iceberg. Look, Putin gave us strategic warning eight years ago when he said the collapse of the Soviet Union was the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century. That was a statement right then that he intended to get Russian hegemony in the space of the former Soviet Union.
That’s what he is doing and he is meeting no effective American or European resistance.
Varney then asked Bolton if he agreed that the problem was that the president had “withdrawn from the game”:
Bolton: I think that’s a large measure of it. Look, what minimal international order and stability there’s been since World War II has been because of American strength, the projection of our power, our system of alliances around the world. International trade, finance, travel, you name it, didn’t get there by accident. And if the United States pulls back, you’re going to have anarchy increasing. You can see that in the Middle East today, but signs of it exist everywhere.

DeleteBolton is a neocon nutjob.
Every program I have seen him on lately from CNN to FOX (I doubt he would go on MSNBC) have been ragging on him for his part in supporting the Bush Iraqi fiasco. He like so many of the other neocons choose not to talk about that period. When questioned, his usual comment amounts to 'that was then and this is now.'
Anyway, saw him on with either Megan Kelly or Jake Tapper and he was talking about the Gazan war. Somewhere in the conversation he said 'Israel was our most reliable ally in the ME', something we hear here often from the Lobby. He was a bit gobsmacked and thrown aback when the host had the temerity to question that statement and asked 'is Israel really a reliable ally to the US?' [The question was asked within the context of the current frayed diplomatic relation between the US and Israel.] This question has also been asked here a number of times. However, Bolton had to answer it so he did unlike the lobby here which when asked the question were unresponsive other than to attack the people raising the query.
It took Bolton a couple seconds to respond but when he did his answer was as unresponsive as that of the Lobby here. He said (paraphrased but pretty much dead on) 'Israel is a modern western style democracy. It is economically sound and technologically advanced. It has one of the most powerful militarys in the world. When a peace accord is reached there it will be a centerpiece and example in the ME.'
Typical bullshit. Even if all of that is true (except obviously the part about the peace agreement, let's not go crazy) it doesn't answer the question.
How has Israel been the US' most reliable ally in the ME.
The answer to the question should be right on the tip of the tongue of every supporter of Israel; yet, it is as if they have never thought about it but rather just assumed it was true.

Displaced Gazans Attack Hamas Spokesman Outside Hospital

Maybe it was his extremely punchable face. Maybe it’s frustration over being dragged into a Hamas war, which it started just to sabotage its own unity agreement, which most Muslims in the West Bank and Gaza seem to want, while Hamas doesn’t.
And the time he announced, accidentally, that “we are leading our people to death” may have been a Freudian slip too far.
But they’re probably just Islamophobes.
Palestinian Arab sources said Tuesday that Gaza residents attacked Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri Saturday evening, near the Shifa Hospital.
Abu Zuhri had arrived at the hospital for an interview with a news outlet.
The residents blamed Hamas for the death of family members and for destruction of their homes. Armed Hamas terrorists from the Izzedine al-Kassam Brigades extricated Abu Zuri and arrested the angry residents.
Good to see that Jimmy Carter’s favorite terrorist group is continuing its long tradition of democratic rule and respect for human rights.
