NewsMax: “President Barack Obama’s renewed call on Thursday for the closure of the Guantanamo Bay prison suggests he is clueless on how to effectively battle terrorism, according to John Bolton, former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.
“He still doesn’t understand the nature of the war against terro.r”
Opinion: Or he does, and that’s even more troubling.
Fox News: “British police have made two further arrests and searched multiple properties as they widened their investigation into Wednesday’s fatal hacking to death of a British soldier in broad daylight on a busy London street by two Muslim terrorists.
The two arrests, of a man and a woman — both 29 — on suspicion of conspiracy to murder, raises the possibility that the gruesome attack was not a so-called “lone wolf“ killing as once thought.”
Opinion: The default classification for the progressive left for every terror attack since 911 is lone wolf. That way there’s no need to call radical Islamic terrorism … radical Islamic terrorism.
David Cameron, who is known as a conservative, made the following statement “We will never give in to terror, or terrorism, in any of its forms.” But then watch, as political correctness set in, this comment, ”there is nothing in Islam that justifies this truly dreadful act’, and that ‘the fault lay solely with the attackers.” Nothing … Really?
President Obama and his administration, who basically consider Christians and retired military soldiers just as dangerous as the I word, said, “The United States stands resolute with the United Kingdom, our ally and friend, against violent extremism and terror.”
Which according to the president includes those violent extremist Christians, you know, those rural voters who cling to “guns and religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them.”
The Times of Israel: “Secretary of State John Kerry reportedly made an angry phone call to Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren in protest of government plans to legalize four West Bank outposts that had previously been set for demolition.
Kerry made the unusual move last Thursday to ask (Michael) Oren for an explanation as to why the government is taking a step that he felt is likely to damage efforts to restart peace negotiations with the Palestinians, Haaretz reported on Tuesday, citing an anonymous Israeli source.”
Opinion: But not-so-former terrorist Mahmoud Abbas is coddled and treated with kid gloves. Maybe the Secretary of State should ask why the PA joined in with Hamas last November in firing rockets into Israel. Maybe he should ask Mahmoud why there have been no elections in the West Bank since 2009 and then he could ask him when he plans on acknowledging Israel’s right to exist.
Somebody needs to tell big John that God does not want His land divided (Joel 3:1-2).
Wall Street Journal Op-Ed: “Perhaps to protect herself from Obama.”
“Among the criteria by which the Internal Revenue Service selected groups for its political targeting program in 2012 was “educating on the constitution and bill of rights” (lowercase in original), according to the Inspector General’s Report. Lois Lerner, who
directs the office at the center of that effort, has received her own education in the Constitution.”
Investors Business Daily Op-Ed: “Gang of Eight Betrays Americans” The Gang of Eight immigration bill can be summed up as amnesty now, border closing never. The Department of Homeland Security is not required to build a fence (which was ordered by the Secure Fence Act signed by President George W. Bush).”
Front Page Mag: “Alinsky explains that the term ‘enemy’ is sufficient to put the organizer on the side of the people,” and that “the brand ‘dangerous’ proves that “the establishment” has “fear of the organizer,” “fear that he represents a threat to its omnipotence.” Once this fear is established for all to see, the organizer can get to work.
Doubtless, Obama did not want for any of these scandals to come to light. Now that they’ve arisen, though, they can be exploited to depict himself as a Washington outsider and his Republican nemeses as “the establishment” that has vowed to destroy him. Potentially, this strategy trades off short-term loss for long-term gain.”
Opinion: Who can make war with him? The resignation of Steven Miller was nothing more than sleight of hand; he was leaving anyway. Tuesday night the Senate confirmed the immigration reform bill to wild cheers of “Yes we can, yes we can”.
The bill will give Obamacare and welfare to Mexican illegal aliens and one thing is for sure, it will never pass … by design.
Once the bill fails, President Obama will have a bran’ spankin’ new reason to campaign against those evil Republicans, campaign for control of both Houses of Congress, and have free reign for two years. God help us.
DebkaFile: “Two as yet unidentified Muslin terrorists chanting Allahu Akbar assaulted a British soldier on a street close to the Royal Barracks at Woolwich in southeast London, shot him, hacked him with knives and a machete and finally beheaded him. This happened in broad daylight Wednesday afternoon, May 22, in the presence of dozens of witnesses, the first such outrage seen in a West European capital.”
Opinion: Three versions of Luke 21:9
Luke 21:9 (NIV) “When you hear of wars and uprisings …”
Luke 21:9 (Holman) “When you hear of wars and rebellions …”
Luke 21:9 (NKJV) “But when you shall hear of wars and commotions …”
The ending of the verse instructs us not to be frightened, the end of things will not come right away, but these are a sign that they are coming.
Who are you going to tell?
