HOW OUR GOVERNMENT HELPED AL QAEDA


HOW OUR GOVERNMENT HELPED AL QAEDA


Mayor G. Paul Miller, a long-time judge and retired school teacher, delivered the “government” address, and here it is (emphasis added):
——————
There are many aspects of government that are worthy of consideration, but in the limited time available tonight let us concentrate on civil liberties, rights and freedoms, and how our government is dealing with those issues.
On September 11, 2001, al Qaeda terrorists stated a group of suicide attacks on the United States that caused significant property damage and massive loss of life. As terrible as the 9-11 attacks were, a longer-lasting and perhaps even more serious injury to our country is still continuing and slowly getting worse. The greatest tragedy is that while the actual physical terrorist attacks have been controlled, al Qaeda has actually succeeded  in seriously damaging the basic structure of our country — with the unwitting help of the American government.
The government responded to the attacks with legislation called the Patriot Act — The Patriot Act is composed of many laws already on the books that are designed to counter terrorism in the United States. What distinguishes the Patriot Act from these pre-September 11 laws is its ENABLING characteristics. Put simply, the criminal statutes, investigative rules and court procedures which safeguarded our constitutionally guaranteed civil liberties in previous anti-terror legislation were stripped away by the Patriot Act. They have been replaced by a system of Executive Branch Orders, now institutionalized in the Department of Homeland Security.
How does the Patriot Act affect our freedoms? The Patriot Act seriously damages the following constitutionally granted freedoms in the name of conducing terrorism investigations:
FREEDOM OF ASSOCIATION: Government may investigate religious, labor and political institutions without suspecting criminal activity.
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION: Government has closed once-public immigration hearings, has secretly detained hundreds of people without charges and has encouraged bureaucrats to resist public records requests.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH: Government may prosecute librarians or keepers of any other records if they tell anyone that the government subpoenaed information.
RIGHT TO LEGAL REPRESENTATION: Government may listen in on federal prison jailhouse conversations between attorneys and clients and deny lawyers to Americans accused of crimes.
FREEDOM FROM UNREASONABLE SEARCHES: Government may search and seize Americans’ personal records, business documents and telephone or internet activity without probable cause or court order.
RIGHT TO A SPEEDY AND PUBLIC TRIAL: Government may jail Americans indefinitely without a trial on mere suspicion.
RIGHT TO LIBERTY: Americans may be jailed without being charged or being able to confront the witnesses against them.
Another serious level of concern is generated by the continuation and expansion of these laws that ignore our constitution and invade our privacy.
The Patriot Act was set to automatically expire in February 2010, but Congress re-authorized it and the President signed it into law again at that time.
On December 31, 2011, the President signed a law known as the National Defense Authorization Act for the 2012 fiscal year. Normally, this is just an act which funds the Department of Defense and which is passed every year. However, the act passed for the 2012 fiscal year has extensive changes and can be seen as an extension of the Patriot Act. Now, the indefinite detention has been extended to United States citizens as well. If people are spied on and suspected of being terrorists, they may be detained indefinitely without trial.
In a country famous for the belief that one is innocent until proven guilty, this is an upsetting change that is being placed upon the American people with many unaware of what it means.
The provisions of the Patriot Act allow the government to spy upon U.S. citizens, and the National Defense Authorization Act allows the government to whisk a citizen away to imprisonment for no reason other than being suspected of terrorism.
The President’s lawyers have stated that not only may the President kill Americans HE THINKS have taken sides with the enemy in the Global War on Terror, but also his decision to do so is not reviewable by the courts.
That statement by the President’s lawyers was in response to questions about the killing of an American citizen who was also an al Qaeda terrorist — Anwar al-Awlaki.
As one progresses down this path of escalating government removal of our civil liberties, right and freedoms, it becomes obvious that the America we once had where the rule of Constitutional Law could be depended on is rapidly disappearing.
We should remember that while the terrorist attacks came primarily from outside America, the damage to our liberties, rights and freedoms came (and is continuing to come) primarily from our own government.
It is worthy to note that Benjamin Franklin said: “Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.”
Let us fervently hope and pray that we can restore our country to the shining example of a Free Constitutional Democracy that it once was.

MASSACHUSETTS OUTLAWS SCHOOL BAKE SALES

MASSACHUSETTS OUTLAWS SCHOOL BAKE SALES

In an effort to better control the nutritional intake of their constituent’s children, Massachusetts lawmakers have approved a ban on school bake sales. “At a minimum, the nosh clampdown targets so-called ‘competitive’ foods — those sold or served during the school day in hallways, cafeterias, stores and vending machines outside the regular lunch program, including bake sales, holiday parties and treats dished out to reward academic achievement,” Laurel J. Sweet and Chris Cassidy write for the Boston Herald. “But state officials are pushing schools to expand the ban 24/7 to include evening, weekend and community events such as banquets, door-to-door candy sales and football games.”

Should lawmakers and school officials regulate parents for their child's eating? Why or why not?

‘Crossing The Line’


In the new film “Crossing the Line” by Rapheal Shore and Wayne Kopping, the reality of Antisemitism is revealed with shocking clarity. Anti-Israeli events, protests and rallies have gone from political critiques to the blatant hatred of Jews on college campuses. The trailer and film features UC Irvine, a school whose Muslim Student Union has faced very public controversy. They are now infamous for their Muslim Students Union’s rude protestation of ambassador to Israel Michael Oren during his visit to the school in 2009, for which several students have now been convicted.

ONCE-HOMELESS TEEN HEADED TO HARVARD AFTER WORKING AS A JANITOR TO GET AHEAD: ‘IT DEPENDS ON YOU AND NO ONE ELSE’

The EPA's Green Tyranny


Read Rich Trzupek's How The EPA's Green Tyranny Is Stifling America here: http://tinyurl.com/3tqwfzc

The relationship between environmental regulation and economic growth has gone from dysfunctional to disastrous under the leadership of Obama's EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson. Jackson's EPA has assumed broad new powers and promulgated sweeping new regulations unlike anything America has seen since the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act were signed into law 40 years ago. While much of the public has focused on the EPA's plans to regulate greenhouse-gas emissions, the agency's power grab extends into far more areas of society and the economy than fossil-fuel use alone.

This video explains why Obama's EPA is different and more dangerous than any other since the agency was created. While the tentacles of this EPA are silently creeping into our lives, Lisa Jackson smilingly assures us that everything the EPA does generates revenue -- instead of costing industry billions of dollars and America hundreds of thousands of jobs.

Muslim Brotherhood in America: The Overview

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfSpolVao4w&feature=player_embedded

By allowing our attention to be focused exclusively on the danger and prevention of terrorism, we ignore the many other ways we are being attacked. Specifically, we are missing what our Islamist enemies call their 'civilization jihad' — a form of warfare that employs manipulative financial techniques, lawfare, infiltration of our civil institutions and government and insidious information dominance. Together, these have the effect of exploiting our liberties and governing structures against us, so that our leaders wind up imposing the very anti-American values that our enemies promote.

Welcome to The Muslim Brotherhood in America: The Enemy Within — a 10-part, web-based video briefing that is designed to explain why and how this is happening.

It addresses a threat most Americans are unaware even exists within our country, let alone the degree of peril it represents. The threat is the totalitarian, supremacist Islamic doctrine its adherents call "shariah" and the organized, disciplined and increasingly successful efforts by such adherents-- most especially the Muslim Brotherhood-- to bring it here.

We are making this course available in the hope of encouraging, informing and broadening support for national efforts to defeat the insinuation into this country of shariah's anti-constitutional and seditious program.

U.S. Army Document Outlines Plan For Re-Education Camps In America

FM 3-39.40 Internment and Resettlement Operations (PDF) was originally released on a restricted basis to the DoD in February 2010, but has now been leaked online.

The manual outlines policies for processing detainees into internment camps both globally and inside the United States. International agencies like the UN and the Red Cross are named as partners in addition to domestic federal agencies including the Department of Homeland Security and FEMA.

“The authority to approve resettlement such operations within U.S. territories,” would require a “special exception” to The Posse Comitatus Act, which can be obtained via “the President invoking his executive authority.”

Once the detainees have been processed into the internment camp, the manual explains how they will be “indoctrinated,” with a particular focus on targeting political dissidents, into expressing support for U.S. policies.

The manual lists the following roles that are designated to the “PSYOP team”. - Identifies malcontents, trained agitators, and political leaders within the facility who may try to organize resistance or create disturbances. - Develops and executes indoctrination programs to reduce or remove antagonistic attitudes. - Identifies political activists. - Provides loudspeaker support (such as administrative announcements and facility instructions when necessary). - Helps the military police commander control detainee and DC populations during emergencies. - Plans and executes a PSYOP program that produces an understanding and appreciation of U.S. policies and actions.

Obama Administration Defends the Sharia Female Genital Mutilation

Obama's U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released this "fact sheet" about clitorectomies (female genital mutilation) stating “although many people believe that FGC is associated with Islam, it is not. FGC is not supported by any religion and is condemned by many religious leaders.”

“No religious text requires or even supports cutting female genitals. In fact, Islamic Shari'a protects children and protects their rights.”

Despite the fact that the federal government is defending Islamic sharia the truth of the matter is that the sharia does condone the practice. For example:

“Circumcision is obligatory. For men it consists of removing the prepuce from the penis, and for women, removing the prepuce (Ar. Bazr) of the clitoris."

Cf. Sacred Islamic Reliance: p. 59, Umdat al-Salik (“Reliance of the Traveler”), a manual of Islamic jurisprudence certified as "reliable" by Al-Azhar University, the leading Islamic seminary in the world.

Moreover, the Islamic practice is sanctioned in the U.S. by Dr. Hatem al-Haj, a fellow at the American Academy of Pediatrics and a leading Muslim jurist.

ATF Fast and Furious: New documents show Attorney General Eric Holder was briefed in July 2010

Attorney General Eric Holder's statement to Congress in May, 2011.


New documents obtained by CBS News show Attorney General Eric Holder was sent briefings on the controversial Fast and Furious operation as far back as July 2010. That directly contradicts his statement to Congress.

On May 3, 2011, Holder told a Judiciary Committee hearing, "I'm not sure of the exact date, but I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks."

Yet internal Justice Department documents show that at least ten months before that hearing, Holder began receiving frequent memos discussing Fast and Furious.


The Justice Department told CBS News that the officials in those emails were talking about a different case started before Eric Holder became Attorney General. And tonight they tell CBS News, Holder misunderstood that question from the committee - he did know about Fast and Furious - just not the details.

Obama Admits "Girlfriend" in Bio is a Lie: Pakistani buddy, becomes an American black

Obama: 'New York girlfriend' was composite.

It makes you wonder what else he made up, no?

David Maraniss discusses "his friendship with Pakistani students at Occidental and his extended visit to their country."

What was he doing in Pakistan?

Later on, Maraniss continues: "He (Soetoro) was still in a cocoon phase, wondering about his place, keeping mostly to himself, occasionally hanging out with his Pakistani friends, who partied too much and too hard, he thought, but were warm and generous and buoyant intellectual company."

At the very least, this demonstrates an affinity with Pakistanis, again.

"If Barack and Genevieve were in social occasions as a couple, it was almost always with the Pakistanis. Hasan Chandoo had moved back from London and taken a place in a converted warehouse on the waterfront below Brooklyn Heights. Wahid Hamid, starting a rise up the corporate ladder that would take him to the top of PepsiCo, lived on Long Island with his wife. Sohale Siddiqi was part of the crowd, along with Beenu Mahmood. It was a movable feast, and invariably a matter of bounty and excess, friends losing themselves in food and conversation. Barack for the most part declined alcohol and drugs. “He was quite abstemious,” Genevieve said. She enjoyed the warmth of the gatherings, but was usually ready to go home before him. He was pushing away from the Pakistanis, too, politely, for a different reason, she thought. He wanted something more.

Beenu Mahmood saw a shift in Obama that corresponded to Genevieve’s perceptions. He could see Obama slowly but carefully distancing himself as a necessary step in establishing his political identity as an American."

The gist of it confirms that Obama is not a natural born citizen; he made a conscious ploy to work with blacks in Chicago, his first extensive contact with American blacks, and he developed the persona of an American.

"Recommendation: At this time of increased and consolidated government authority, there should be a board within the executive branch to oversee adherence to the guidelines we recommend and the commitment the government makes to defend our civil liberties.

We must find ways of reconciling security with liberty, since the success of one helps protect the other. The choice between security and liberty is a false choice, as nothing is more likely to endanger America's liberties than the success of a terrorist attack at home. Our history has shown us that insecurity threatens liberty. Yet, if our liberties are curtailed, we lose the values that we are struggling to defend" (p. 395).

ISLAMIC CENTER OF AMERICA, DEARBORN: PRO-HONOR KILLING IMAM INCITES AGAINST ACTIVISTS AT FRIDAY PRAYER

ISLAMIC CENTER OF AMERICA, DEARBORN: PRO-HONOR KILLING IMAM INCITES AGAINST ACTIVISTS AT FRIDAY PRAYER
Starting at about 24:00 to about 39:00, by name, the Imam's sermon incites the congregation against activists who are are denouncing honor killings. He calls people out by name, describing them as a "bigot," etc. Thereafter, he equates "white, Christian, male" murderers as the same type as honor killings. He claims Islam has nothing to do with honor killings. Obama is credited with defending Islam against the military schools and the NYPD who are rightly attributing Islamism as the cause of terrorism. The Imam seeks to equate the Norway incident, that of Anders Behring Breivik, as the act of a Christian, and asks why the nineteen Islamists who attacked on 9/11 should be considered Muslims. This is simple. The Norway incident was not inspired by Christ; the 9/11 attackers killed for Islamism. They should not be equated.


Video streaming by Ustream

According to sharia, Islamic law, honor killings are acceptable.

The scanned text is from one of the most important English-language sources for the content of Islamic law: Reliance of the Traveller: A Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law. It is certified by Al-Azhar University as a translation that "corresponds to the Arabic original and conforms to the practice and faith of the orthodox Sunni Community..."

In Book O, titled "Justice," in section 1, "Who is Subject to Retaliation for Injurious Crimes," section o1.1 reads, "Retaliation is obligatory ... against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right..."

However, o1.2 clarifies (above) that "The following are not subject to retaliation" and then lists — after the lovely, egalitarian "Muslim for killing a non-Muslim" and "Jewish or Christian subject ... for killing an apostate" — "(4) a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or offspring's offspring."

Christianity for the Norway incident does not apply.


Christianity (cf. Wikipedia)

In 2009, Anders Behring Breivik wrote "Today's Protestant church is a joke. Priests in jeans who march for Palestine and churches that look like minimalist shopping centres. I am a supporter of an indirect collective conversion of the Protestant church back to the Catholic."[168] On his Facebook profile, Breivik described himself as a Christian,[32] though he is critical of the Catholic and Protestant churches, objecting to their "current suicidal path". Before the attacks, he stated an intention to attend Frogner Church in a final "Martyr's mass".[169]
The manifesto states its author is "100 percent Christian",[3] but he is not "excessively religious"[3] and considers himself a "cultural Christian" and a "modern-day crusader".[2][3] His manifesto states "I'm not going to pretend I'm a very religious person, as that would be a lie", calls religion a crutch and a source for drawing mental strength, and says "I've always been very pragmatic and influenced by my secular surroundings and environment"; regarding the term "cultural Christian" which he says means preserving European culture, he notes "It is enough that you are a Christian-agnostic or a Christian-atheist (an atheist who wants to preserve at least the basics of the European Christian cultural legacy...)"[160][2] Furthermore, Breivik stated that "myself and many more like me do not necessarily have a personal relationship with Jesus Christand God."[2][170] Nevertheless, he stated that he planned to pray to God seeking for his help during his attacks.[171]
Breivik condemns Pope Benedict XVI for his dialogue with Islam: "Pope Benedict has abandoned Christianity and all Christian Europeans and is to be considered a cowardly, incompetent, corrupt and illegitimate Pope." It will thus be necessary, writes Breivik, to overthrow the Protestant and Catholic hierarchies, after which a "Great Christian Congress" would set up a new European Church.[172] He has also condemned Christian missionary activity in India as it would lead to the "total destruction of theHindu faith and culture", and he expresses support for the Hindutva movement against Indian Communist movements.[173]
American Christian press has also highlighted that Breivik appears to have addressed followers of the Neopagan religion of Odinism in his writ. In regards to them, he says, "even Odinists can fight with us or by our side as brothers" in the Knights Templar organization of which Breivik claims to be a founding member. He later says to reject Odinism, saying that the Thor's Hammer cannot unify the people of Europe, but that the Christian cross will.[174]
Deputy police chief Roger Andresen initially told reporters that information on Breivik's websites was "so to speak, Christian fundamentalist".[68][175][176][177] Subsequently, others have disputed Andresen's characterisation of Breivik as a Christian fundamentalist.[172][178] Rev. Olav Fykse Tveit, head of the World Council of Churches and himself Norwegian, accused Breivik of blasphemy for citing Christianity as a justification in his murderous attack.[2][179]

Arif Alikahn, Former Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary for Policy Development: Now a Distinguished Visiting Professor of DHS and Counterterrorism at the National Defense University, Alikahn also served as Deputy Mayor for Public Safety for the City of Los Angeles where he reportedly derailed the LAPD’s efforts to monitor the city’s Muslim community — particularly its radical mosques and madrassas where certain 9/11 hijackers were said to have received support. He is affiliated with MPAC, which has called the terrorist group Hezbollah a “liberation movement.”

 

Salam al-Marayati, Founder and Executive Director of Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC)Want to Know Just How Close the Muslim Brotherhood Is to the Obama Admin?: Marayati is an Iraqi immigrant who drew national attention over a decade ago when then-House Democratic Leader Richard Gephardt nominated him to serve on the National Commission on Terrorism. Backlash over al-Marayati’s defense of Hezbollah and other Islamic groups prompted a withdrawal of the nomination. The Center for Security Policy reports that MPAC was formed in 1986 as the Political Action Committee for the Islamic Center for Southern California, one of the largest Wahhabi mosques in the country. While MPAC later fractioned-off, one of the founders of the Islamic Center, Hassan Hathout, was a senior member of the Muslim Brotherhood who also spent time in Egyptian prison.

Mohamed Elibiary, Homeland Security Advisory Committee MemberWant to Know Just How Close the Muslim Brotherhood Is to the Obama Admin?: He is the former president of the Freedom and Justice Foundation, which was billed to ”promote a Centrist Public Policy environment in Texas by coordinating the state level government and interfaith community relations for the organized Texas Muslim community.” He spoke at a 2004 conference in Dallas praising the “Great Islamic Visionary” Ayatollah Khomeini. Most recently he is famous for leaking highly sensitive intelligence documents to a media outlet in Texas.

Want to Know Just How Close the Muslim Brotherhood Is to the Obama Admin?Rashad Hussain, State Department Special Envoy to the Organization of Islamic Cooperation: The Global Muslim Brotherhood Daily Report uncovered that Hussain spoke at a conference sponsored by the Muslim Brotherhood affiliate, the Association of Muslim Social Scientists. An internal Brotherhood document dubbed the Social Scientists as one of “our organizations and the organizations of our friends.” Hussain also spoke at the Prince Alwaleed Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding of Georgetown University, which reportedly receives Saudi funding and is directed by Muslim Brotherhood advocate, John Esposito. In 2004, Hussain also participated in the Muslim Students Association’s annual conference, a group founded by the Muslim Brotherhood and known as one of its front-groups. The report also asserts that many of the Student Associations’ nearly 600 college chapters “have engaged in extremism and the group closely collaborates with the other Brotherhood fronts.”

 

Other Brotherhood sympathizers involved in the administration but who tend to travel beneath the radar include:

Imam Mohamed Magid, Homeland Security Countering Violent Extremism Working Group Member : He is a Sudanese-born president for the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) with alleged ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. ISNA’s parent is the Muslim Student Association. ISNA completed a $21 million headquarters in Indianapolis using funds raised in part from Muslim Brotherhood.

Want to Know Just How Close the Muslim Brotherhood Is to the Obama Admin?

Eboo Patel, Obama Administration Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships: Patel spoke at a Muslim Students Association and ISNA convention, appearing on a panel alongside Tariq Ramadan, grandson of the Muslim Brotherhood’s founder, and Siraj Wahhaj, who was named as a possible co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and has defended the convicted WTC bombers. Wahhaj allegedly advocates the Islamic takeover of America.

Want to Know Just How Close the Muslim Brotherhood Is to the Obama Admin?

Huma Abedin, Deputy Chief of Staff to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: Perhaps most famous for being wife of the disgraced former congressman Anthony Weiner, Huma Abedin appears to have family ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. In an interview with FrontPageMag, anti-Islamist author Walid Shoebat explained that Huma’s mother, Saleha Abedin, is involved with the Muslim Brotherhood and that Huma’s brother, Hassan, sits in on the board of the Oxford Centre For Islamic Studies (OCIS) where he is a fellow and partners with other board members including “Al-Qaeda associate, Omar Naseef and the notorious Muslim Brotherhood leader Sheikh Youssef Qaradawi; both have been listed as OCIS Trustees.”
