In the Islamic world natures fills a power vacuum with - you guessed it – Islam!
The Telegraph (UK), 10/23/2011Libya's liberation: interim ruler unveils more radical than expected plans for Islamic law
Libya's interim leader outlined more radical plans to introduce Islamic law than expected as he declared the official liberation of the country.
Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, the chairman of the National Transitional Council and de facto president, had already declared that Libyan laws in future would have Sharia, the Islamic code, as its "basic source".

Libya: First Liberation Then Submission
Dan from New York:
Saturday, October 22, 2011
Gaddafi stashed as much as $200 billion outside Libya. Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakhan hardest hit.
Aren't despotic tyrants awesome?
You can't help but think that President Obama's "spiritual mentor", Reverend Jeremiah Wright Jr., is privately mourning Gaddafi's death.
After all, Wright and his spiritual mentor -- Louis Farrakhan -- visited Gaddafi in 1984.
Moammar Kadafi secretly salted away more than $200 billion in bank accounts, real estate and corporate investments around the world before he was killed, about $30,000 for every Libyan citizen and double the amount that Western governments previously had suspected, according to senior Libyan officials.
The new estimates of the deposed dictator's hidden cash, gold reserves and investments are "staggering," one person who has studied detailed records of the asset search said Friday. "No one truly appreciated the scope of it."
If the values prove accurate, Kadafi will go down in history as one of the most rapacious as well as one of the most bizarre world leaders, on a scale with the late Mobutu Sese Seko in Zaire or the late Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines.
Kadafi's death after he was captured Thursday outside his birthplace, the coastal town of Surt, not only all but ended the armed uprising that erupted in February. Revelation of the stunning size of the portfolio may stir anger among Libya's 6.5 million people — about one-third of whom live in poverty.

Occupy Wall Street's latest popcorn-passing hilarity: protesters occupy Obama crony Jeff Immelt's front lawn
I can just see General Electric's CEO now, screeching from his porch: "Don't you know who I am???"
GE's CEO is one of President Obama's biggest supporters and the current poster-child for crony capitalism. From Chevy Volts, to Obamacare, to selling critical aircraft technologies to Red China, Immelt's been at the heart of it all.
Oh. And Immelt "actually came out in support of the Occupy Wall Street movement last week at a Thomson Reuters event in New York."
I love the smell of blue-on-blue napalm in the morning (or evening, in this case).
Occupy Wall Street protesters took a field trip from Zuccotti Park on Saturday morning, all the way to the wealthy suburban enclave of New Canaan, Conn., where they took their anger at income and tax disparity to GE CEO Jeff Immelt’s front lawn.
“In the land of the free they tax me but not G.E.!” read the invitation to protesters to take an hour bus ride to Immelt’s family home. “General Electric made billions last year; they paid no taxes, outsourced thousands of jobs, and got over $3 billion in tax refunds! Join us on a free bus trip to G.E’s CEO’s front lawn to see how our friends in the 1% live.”
...A crowd of about 100 protesters, both from New York and local offshoot Occupy New Haven, spent the afternoon standing outside Immelt’s 6-bedroom, 10-bathroom, $5.25 million home. Photos from local news site New Canaan Patch show a police officer guarding Immelt’s gates while protesters hold placards reading “Mr. Immelt, Meet the 99%” and “Jobs Not Bailouts”...

Thanks, Janet and Eric: Mexican Cartels Recruiting Texas Children as "Expendable" Drug Runners
This story will literally make you sick.
Say, I've got an idea: let's keep our border with Mexico wide open to allow the drug cartels free rein.
What's that? You say Eric Holder, Janet Napolitano and Barack Obama have already been doing that? Roger that.
Texas law enforcement officials say several Mexican drug cartels are luring youngsters as young as 11 to work in their smuggling operations.
Steven McCraw, director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, told Reuters the drug gangs have a chilling name for the young Texans lured into their operations.
"They call them 'the expendables,'" he said.McCraw said his investigators have evidence six Mexican drug gangs -- including the violent Zetas -- have "command and control centers" in Texas actively recruiting children for their operations, attracting them with what appears to be "easy money" for doing simple tasks... "Cartels would pay kids $50 just for them to move a vehicle from one position to another position, which allows the cartel to keep it under surveillance to see if law enforcement has it under surveillance," he said.
"Of course, once you're hooked up with them, there's consequences."...This month, "we made an arrest of a 12-year-old boy who was in a stolen pickup truck with 800 pounds of marijuana," he said. "So they do recruit our kids."
...Law enforcement officers say children are less likely to be suspects than adults, are easily manipulated by relatively small sums of money, and face less severe penalties than adults if arrested.
...Last month, Texas officials released a report indicating Mexico-based drug gangs are intent on creating a "sanitary zone" on the U.S. side of the Rio Grande, and are "intimidating landowners" in south Texas into allowing them to use their property as "permanent bases" for drug smuggling activity.
Say, I've got an idea: let's keep our border with Mexico wide open to allow the drug cartels free rein.
What's that? You say Eric Holder, Janet Napolitano and Barack Obama have already been doing that? Roger that.

Great News: Jamie 'Mistress of Disaster' Gorelick joins Defense Policy Board
What could possibly go wrong?
After all, what's a couple of trillion-dollar disasters between friends?
Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and retired Marine Corps Gen. James Cartwright are among five new members of the Defense Policy Board, a panel advising top Pentagon officials on matters of defense policy.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta also named Jamie Gorelick, former deputy attorney general and member of the 9/11 Commission, former U.S. congresswoman Jane Harman and retired Adm. Gary Roughead, former chief of naval operations.
After all, what's a couple of trillion-dollar disasters between friends?

Say, how's that 'multi-cultural integration' of Sharia law working out in Europe?
Poland: "Polish fans of Legia Warsaw piggybacked on extreme Islamic rhetoric on Thursday night in the Europa League, as they displayed a ginormous “Jihad Legia” banner in the match with Israeli outfit Hapoel Tel Aviv... To many the unfurling of the giant banner was a distasteful act which stunk of antisemitism. Written in Arabic-style letters, the green banner was construed by many as a thumb in the eye to Hapoel and moreover the Jewish people at large."
London: "This is what London has come to. Halal food in all schools. No eating in front of your Muslim colleagues during Ramadan. Special accommodations for Muslims in public buildings. Officially sanctioned sharia courts.And above all, no “racist” speech. Muslims may gather and scream “Death to those who insult Islam!” with impunity. But a non-Muslim who objects to the spread of sharia may be arrested, charged, convicted, fined, and slapped with an Anti-Social Behavior Order (ASBO) forbidding him from taking part in any activist events for several years.
This is the reality of 21st century Britain. This is not creeping sharia, it is galloping sharia."
'The Islamization of British Police': "While sounding friendly, [its mission of 'assistance' of 'minorities'] implies that the working environment for “cultural minorities” is not fair or just at present, a subtle accusation of what would be called 'racism' – so subtly worded that few would identify it and yet fewer object to it.The 'assisting' would constitute of advice on how to change the police force in order not to offend “cultural minorities”, also known as “sensitivity training”. This, unfortunately, tends to render the police force ineffective in cases where normal police procedure – like the use of sniffer dogs – violates religious law stating that dogs are 'unclean', and the like. Whenever there is a clash between secular and religious law, it is easy to make a qualified guess as to which side AMP will be on.
Before writing this off as 'speculative', it is instructive to see this conflict of interest play out in practice. The National Association of Muslim Police in 2010 rejected the claim that Islam can be blamed for terror attacks."
Denmark: "Five men planning to shoot as many people as possible in a building housing the newsroom of a paper that published cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad were arrested Wednesday in an operation that halted an imminent attack, intelligence officials said."
Sweden: "[Sweden's] daily Metro said it had obtained classified documents that showed the prosecutor believes three men arrested on September 10 had planned to kill cartoonist Lars Vilks... ...An elite counter-terrorism unit arrested four people in Gothenburg and shortly afterward evacuated hundreds of people from a building hosting an art fair "after concluding that there was a threat that could endanger lives or health or cause serious damage."
The orthodox practice of Islam is inseparable from its legal system, sharia.
And Sharia is incompatible with the United States Constitution.

Thanks to U.S. open borders policy, Mexican drug cartels now operating brazenly in Austin, Texas
Leaving our border unprotected while a civil war rages in the failed narco-terror state called Mexico? What could possibly go wrong?
It's certainly reassuring to know that we have the Obama administration's crack law enforcement leadership team -- Eric Holder and Janet Napolitano -- on the case.
Given our open borders and the fact that Hezbollah is now operating in Mexico -- collaborating with the cartels on IED development and terrorism tactics -- it's only a matter of time before our feckless leaders in DC help touch off a 'man-made disaster' here in the states.
The two men were returning to the small, one-story house in Northeast Austin from Alabama. Hidden in the back of their SUV was $110,000 in carefully wrapped bundles, money authorities said came from cocaine sales.
But responding to an informant's tip, federal drug agents found the men in the parking lot of a bar in Baton Rouge, La., where they searched the truck. As the officers pulled out the cash, the men grew terrified.
"I wish you would put me in jail," one of them said, according to a criminal complaint. "They are going to kill me over this missing money."According to court documents, the money was destined for an Austin resident the couriers had reason to fear: Jose Procoro Lorenzo-Rodriguez, who authorities say is a local leader for Mexico's brutal La Familia cartel.
The raids that followed revealed that La Familia, a quasi-religious, hyper-violent group born five years ago in the mountains of Michoacán, used Austin as a base of operation to funnel large quantities of cocaine, marijuana and especially methamphetamine to places such as Atlanta and Kansas...."It's not surprising that (cartel members) are migrating to Austin as well," said Francisco Cruz Jimenez, a Mexican journalist who chronicled the recent history of Luvianos in his 2010 book "Narco-Land." "It's very natural that they look for communities where they have paisanos because they can go unnoticed."
...Since [2008], Austin officials have learned that as many as four cartels operate inside the city. Law enforcement agencies have arrested human smugglers connected to the Zetas, targeted local prison gang members connected with the Gulf cartel and conducted numerous raids on La Familia members. The Drug Enforcement Administration says members of the Beltrán-Leyva cartel also operate within Austin.
It's certainly reassuring to know that we have the Obama administration's crack law enforcement leadership team -- Eric Holder and Janet Napolitano -- on the case.
Given our open borders and the fact that Hezbollah is now operating in Mexico -- collaborating with the cartels on IED development and terrorism tactics -- it's only a matter of time before our feckless leaders in DC help touch off a 'man-made disaster' here in the states.Tuesday, October 11, 2011
SmartPower™: Within Minutes of Discovering Iran's DC Bomb Plots, Obama Rules Out Military Retaliation
Unlike the Democrat losers who launched "Wag the Dog" invectives at the Bush administration whenever an attack was foiled, I'll take the Obama White House at its word.
If the reports are accurate, Iran just escalated its offensive against America tenfold by targeting diplomatic personnel and facilities in Washington, DC. No longer content with existential threats against America and killing our soldiers in Iraq, Tehran's Islamo-Nazi regime just upped the ante.
Yes, you read that right: the Obama administration immediately ruled out the possibility of a military response.
So if I understand SmartPower™, it's basically to cower and tell your enemies that you won't retaliate.
Once again, the Democrat Party lives up to its longstanding nickname -- The Party of Weakness.
After all, President Bowsalot doesn't exactly strike an intimidating figure on the world stage.
Thought experiment: would the Mullahs have tried this gambit during a Ronald Reagan or George W. Bush presidency? I think we all know the answer to that question.
Because nothing strikes fear into terrorists like the thought of Eric Holder reading them their Miranda Rights.
Hat tip: Memeorandum.
If the reports are accurate, Iran just escalated its offensive against America tenfold by targeting diplomatic personnel and facilities in Washington, DC. No longer content with existential threats against America and killing our soldiers in Iraq, Tehran's Islamo-Nazi regime just upped the ante.
FBI and DEA agents have disrupted a plot to commit a "significant terrorist act in the United States" tied to Iran, federal officials told ABC News today.
The officials said the plot included the assassination of the Saudi Arabian ambassador to the United States, Adel Al-Jubeir, with a bomb and subsequent bomb attacks on the Saudi and Israeli embassies in Washington, D.C. Bombings of the Saudi and Israeli embassies in Buenos Aires, Argentina, were also discussed, according to the U.S. officials....U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said in an announcement today that the plan was "conceived, sponsored and was directed from Iran" by a faction of the government and called it a "flagrant" violation of U.S. and international law... "The U.S. is committed to holding Iran accountable for its actions," Holder said.
Senior Obama administration officials said the U.S. currently does not have any information indicating that either Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei or President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad necessarily knew about the assassination plot and said the U.S. will pursue a path of response that would not include the possibility of an armed conflict with Iran.
Yes, you read that right: the Obama administration immediately ruled out the possibility of a military response.
That a foreign government would plot to kill a foreign leader on American soil could be seen as an act of war, but Obama administration officials say the path the U.S. government will purse will align with American interests – and a military response and possible armed conflict with a third Muslim nation would not be part of that.
So if I understand SmartPower™, it's basically to cower and tell your enemies that you won't retaliate.
Once again, the Democrat Party lives up to its longstanding nickname -- The Party of Weakness.
After all, President Bowsalot doesn't exactly strike an intimidating figure on the world stage.

6 August 2011Would you believe that it was limited to the ATF and the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Arizona?
7 September 2011Seriously, dude: no reports -- NONE! -- concerning Operation Fast and Furious ever reached the upper levels of the Justice Department!

Ten Arizona sheriffs demand probe as 1,500 Fast and Furious weapons are still unaccounted for; Eric Holder hardest hit
The natives are getting understandably restless:
Over 200 Mexican nationals and two American law enforcement officials are dead thanks to Eric Holder and Barack Obama.
And 1,500 weapons are still out there.
Led by Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu, 10 Arizona sheriffs are calling for an investigation into what U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder knew about "Operation Fast and Furious," a gun-running operation that put weapons into the hands of violent drug cartels in Mexico....Babeu, an outspoken critic of the federal government's enforcement of immigration law, was joined outside the Arizona Capitol building Friday by the other sheriffs, representing nine of Arizona's 15 counties. Babeu called "Fast and Furious" a betrayal of state law enforcement. He said the issue is not partisan, but a public safety issue and that guns allowed into Mexico have been linked to dozens of crime scenes on both sides of the border.
"I want the truth, I want the truth from the attorney general, I want the truth from all of those people who are involved," Babeu said... If Holder is found to have lied about his knowledge of "Fast and Furious," he should resign, Babeu said.
Cochise County Sheriff Larry Dever, whose county borders Mexico, said U.S. authorities are in a fight for our country, our Constitution and our very lives.
"While our own government is blaming America for exporting arms and cash south of the border, they're complicit," Dever said.
Babeu said "Fast and Furious" is no small scandal... "I believe that this is a much larger scandal than anything that took place in Watergate because off of this information has had to be dragged out through Congress," he said.
Babeu said 1,500 weapons remain unaccounted for and there's no doubt more bloodshed will occur.
Over 200 Mexican nationals and two American law enforcement officials are dead thanks to Eric Holder and Barack Obama.
And 1,500 weapons are still out there.The FBI's 'Controversial' Training Presentation on Jihad
Last month, Wired's Spencer Ackerman revealed a few slides of four presentations describing the nature of jihad. The presentations seem to have been used for a time by the FBI for training purposes. Ackerman's headline ("FBI Teaches Agents: ‘Mainstream’ Muslims Are ‘Violent, Radical’") was designed to generate controversy and indignation.
But the real story was far more tame: an FBI intelligence analyst had simply prepared the presentations to describe the theological basis for jihad using a multitude of Islamic sources. In other words, there was almost no opinion offered in the presentations; instead, the analyst simply quoted from Islamic texts to describe the roots of the multi-century war between Islam and the West.
Judge for yourself. Here are the "highlights":








Really?
This is supposed to be controversial?
Suffice it to say that the breathless release of these documents and the fact that Eric Holder is Attorney General shouldn't come as much of a surprise.

Arab Spring: Open Season on Christians [Dan from New York]
Dan from New York:
Ibrahim notes that Egyptian clerics have called the Christians "Crusaders", demanding they convert to Islam or pay jizya (a religious tax on infidels) or... die.
Nor is this strictly an Egyptian problem: Iraq, Lebanon and the Palestinian territories have seen attacks and emigration by Christians since the onset of President Obama's vaunted "Arab Spring".
Did I hear someone say “ethnic cleansing?” First the Middle East Muslims threw out the Jews. Now that the Muslim lands are Judenrein (rid of Jews), the Muslims are coming for the Christians.

Running for Their Lives
by Raymond Ibrahim
Historically, non-Muslims whose lands were seized by the jihad had three choices: conversion, dhimmitude, or death. Today, however, they have a fourth option largely unavailable to their forbears: quit their lands of origin—emigrate—the latest testimony to the nature of Islam.
A recent report indicates that unprecedented numbers of Copts, Egypt's indigenous Christian population, are emigrating from their homeland in response to the so-called "Arab spring":The Egyptian Union of Human Rights Organizations (EUHRO) published a report today on emigration of Christians from Egypt, saying that nearly 100,000 Christians have emigrated since March 2011. The report, which was sent to the Egyptian cabinet and the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF), warned that this emigration has been prompted by the escalating intimidation and attacks on Christians by Islamists. "Copts are not emigrating abroad voluntarily," said Naguib Gabriell, the director EUHRO, "they are coerced into that by threats and intimidation by hard line Salafists, and the lack of protection they are getting from the Egyptian regime."
The report goes on to list a number of attacks on Copts and churches—including the killing of Coptic youth in Moqattam, the Imbaba and other church attacks—adding "Salafist clerics, who gained political influence after the January 25 Revolution, have become emboldened, calling Copts Dhimmis who have to pay the jizya (tax paid by non-Muslims to the state) because they are not first class citizens and can never enjoy full citizenship rights, or obtain sensitive posts."
Indeed, this boldness is a harbinger of things to come—and Copts know it, hence the emigration...
Beyond the authoritative primary sources which unequivocally demonstrate the violent nature of Islam—including history and theology texts—which many prefer to dismiss as "dead books," here, then, is yet another live example. And yet the West's leaders, from academics to politicians, will continue insisting that Islam is the "religion of peace"—testimony to the endemic blindness inflicting this age.
Ibrahim notes that Egyptian clerics have called the Christians "Crusaders", demanding they convert to Islam or pay jizya (a religious tax on infidels) or... die.
Nor is this strictly an Egyptian problem: Iraq, Lebanon and the Palestinian territories have seen attacks and emigration by Christians since the onset of President Obama's vaunted "Arab Spring".
