National Black Out on Racial Attacks in Wisconsin

 

Just as in London, many of the attacks have been racially motivated and yet the international and national news outlets have virtually shut out notice of the racially motivated violence. It does not help the situation when the truth of the attacks are ignored. The uprising is in its earliest stages and yet the politicians are ignoring these incidents. The result will be a clampdown on the peaceful, law-abiding citizens.

Laura Ingraham Airs Scary ‘Obama Remix’ of Jimmy Carter‘s ’Malaise’ Speech

Laura Ingraham Remix, Jimmy Obama

Friday marked the 32-year-anniversary of Jimmy Carter’s “crisis of confidence” later pegged “malaise speech,” a nationally-televised and ill-received address trying to combat what Carter saw as apathy and doubt among Americans concerning politics and the energy crisis. In the days following the speech Carter fired cabinet members feeling that his administration failed to capitalize on a window of opportunity, which some believe was the beginning of the end for Carter and his ability to appear as a strong and significant leader.

Thirty-two years later another first term Democratic president faces a crisis of continued economic decline and failure to bridge heated political differences from Capital Hill to Main Street. Ingraham’s audio suggests that like Carter, Obama is failing to step up as a strong and believable leader in the eyes of Americans looking to him in a time of crisis.

Popular Sovereignty, 3:30

Our AP US History I Class had to do a School House Rock themed project in which we explained one of the causes of the Civil War. This was our group's result. We got a 99!

Based off of the song "Tik Tok" by Ke$ha

Lyrics:
Verse:
Popular sovereignty was a real big problem
Started with Kansas, when the congress decided to ask them
"Slavery or just free?" They put the question forth
And caused very much tension between the South and North.
I'm talking about people in Kansas fighting
Clashing like thunder and lightning
People racing in to decide
Standing like guards on the side
Southerners hiring border guards
Beating up dissent without regard
John Brown went to fight right back (back)
A pro slavery town he did attack (tack)

Chorus:
Just vote, it's OK, James B doesn't care either way
Pro slave or free soil, we just need someone to toil
If he's black or he's white we'll just let the states decide
It'll be fine, it'll be fine

Verse:
So the southern states were in a pickle
They used slavery to make every nickel
The Northern states weren't gonna let that fly
But how else was the South going to get by?
They needed to spread slavery West
Needed votes in the house lest
They wouldn't be the best
In the cotton production contest
Douglas wanted a contract
So he could build a railroad track
In order to build his company
He supported popular sovereignty

Chorus 2x

Bridge
The North and South could not agree
This compromise was not meant to be

The South cried out, 'If we secede
Our slaves won't have to be freed'

The civil war, coming quickly
Caused by popular sovereignty

Caused by popular sovereignty

Michael Badnarik sat down with me after teaching his 8 hr. Constitution class in Malvern, PA on March 15th 08. His class is very inspiring to say the least. We are in an Ideological War. Protect yourself from the constant bombardment from the misinformation army. The best tools anyone can use to defend themselves form our government are in the US Constitution.

Michael talks about the differences between rights and privileges. He explains some of the basics of the constitution that supersede any laws that the federal government may pass on a fraudulent basis. Michael does a radio show 7:00am--9:00am CST Monday thru Friday.

Best Practices for Creating Secure Passwords

Best Practices for Creating Secure Passwords

Make your password much longer! Hint: aim for at 15+ characters in length. Pad it!
Include each of the four character types in the password: symbols, uppercase letters, numbers, and lowercase letters; in that order of preference. In other words, most people use only lowercase letters and do not use symbols – go against the herd.
Turn easy-to-remember phrases into passwords, then add in and flip around the four characters... then, pad it and make it longer.
Do NOT use easy to guess passwords or passwords that can be found in any dictionary (including foreign language dictionaries). It's worth mentioning, don't use any personal information as a password either – birth date, child's name, address, etc.
Do NOT use the same password, or similar passwords, for all your accounts (bank, broker, online credit card portal, Facebook, Amazon, or hotmail)! If one account gets compromised you don't want to create a domino effect.
Do NOT use your top-secret, extra-secure passwords (banking or insurance, for instance), with less secure accounts like webmail or free membership sites.

Two Convenient, Fast, and Secure Password Management Tips
1. Truecrypt.org and Wuala.com:Truecrypt is a free, open-source solution you can download and use to encrypt any and all local files on your computer. Here's what you do:

First, you create a password file. It could be a simple document with a list that contains the account name, user name, and password. For instance, Facebook: username, password; Gmail: username, password; and so on.

When you need to login to an account, open your encrypted password list and retrieve the appropriate login and password credentials.

You can keep a back up of your password list on your jump drive or upload the encrypted list to a cloud storage account such as Wuala.com.

Wuala adds a bit more convenience because it allows you to automatically sync your stored data onto different devices. And it lets you access your password file from virtually any Internet connection in the world.

In addition, Wuala enables you to encrypt, back up, and store any file (not just your password list) to the cloud and access it via the Internet.

2. LastPass.com was founded specifically to address secure password management concerns. Their free option is extremely robust. All the steps mentioned above – using Truecrypt to encrypt your password list and storing it on local hardware (such as a USB jump drive) or in the cloud – are rolled into one seamless package with LastPass, with a few extras included. Here are some highlights:

Frustrate Obama's Army of Snoops

One Click Login – Once you load your accounts, usernames, and passwords into LastPass, all you need to do in the future is click one button and LastPass automatically logs you into the account you want (banking, webmail, Twitter, etc.). No need to type!

Generate Secure Passwords – You can ask the program to generate secure passwords for you. You don't have to spend any time "inventing" new passwords. Just choose the parameters you want the program to use to generate new password ideas such as: lower case letters, upper case letters, numbers, and special characters. Then accept or decline the passwords the program generates.

Screen Keyboard – Protect yourself from malicious keylogging software. Keylogging software records the keys you type onto your keyboard. This is especially a concern if you access LastPass from a computer that doesn't belong to you (perhaps at an Internet cafe). Instead of typing your password on the keyboard, click on the "screen keyboard" link and a "graphical" keyboard image appears on the computer screen. Then, use the mouse to select each key you need to input your login and password information into LastPass. Any existing keylogging software is rendered useless.

One-Time Passwords – These are auto-generated, throw-away passwords that give you temporary access to your LastPass account. LastPass makes this feature available to help secure your master password while you're on the road or if you want to share your account information with a trusted person, but only once. Once a One-Time Password is used, it expires and can't be used again.

Password Sharing – This enables you to securely share certain passwords with others and maintain the ability to cancel the privilege at any time. This is a feature you'd use when collaborating on a project and you want other members to have access to the same account. Perhaps to the back end of a website or online film and photo-editing service.

Multi-factor Authentication – This is a paid feature that greatly enhances security. It allows you to set up LastPass to grant access after "two-steps" are satisfied. For example, enter the correct LastPass credentials AND an additional set of credentials. Perhaps input a second graphical-based password or connecting a "physical key," such as a USB jump drive or Yubikey, into the computer to allow access to your LastPass account. If one step is missing, access is denied.
Other features worth noting: Phishing Protection – Helps protect you from phishing attacks. These attacks work like scams. The crooks send a fake email, perhaps one appearing as though it's from the victim's bank. The email asks the victim to enter their login information onto a fake web page designed to look like the bank's website. If the victim is duped and complies, the crooks have all the needed banking account information.

Identify Weak Passwords – LastPass can analyze your passwords for weaknesses and offers suggestions to strengthen them.

Computer Privacy

Identities – This enables you to organize your passwords by segregating your personal accounts and passwords from your work-related passwords and accounts.
There are other password management services on the market. However, one more important security feature not available with many other services is the decryption keys stay with you. This means even LastPass employees cannot and do not have the ability to access your encrypted data through their corporate servers.
Please note: you still have to create strong and secure passwords for each of your accounts to maintain enhanced security. But the good news is with a secure password management system, you no longer need to memorize all of them. Just simply memorize the one master password for the password management program and better protect your privacy and security the easy way!

‘You Are Entering a Shariah Controlled Zone’:

UK Group to Wage Islamic Law Campaign

Tariq Ramadan Openly Calls for a Muslim colonization of the U.S.

"It should be us, with our understanding of Islam, our principles, colonizing the United States of America."

Tariq Ramadan, the grandson of Hasan al-Banna, who founded the Muslim Brotherhood, loved by leftists, academics and the ummah spoke in Texas. Ramadan is a Professor of Contemporary Islamic Studies in the Faculty of Oriental Studies at Oxford University. An online poll provided by the American Foreign Policy magazine in 2009 placed Ramadan on the 49th spot in a list of the world’s top 100 contemporary intellectuals.

Ramadan was banned from the U.S. by George W. Bush; his U.S. visa was revoked due to his numerous connections to Islamic terrorism. And he favors the legal extinction of Israel (in keeping with Islamic teachings). More at Discover the Networks.

In February 2002 Salon.com called him "one of the most important intellectuals in the world," characterizing him as “the Muslim Martin Luther.” In 2004 Time magazine named him one of the world’s top 100 scientists and thinkers.

When speaking to Western audiences, Ramadan preaches an amicable message of unity and mutual respect. But to Arabic-speaking audiences, he vents his deep-seated hatred of the West and his endorsement of Wahhabism, the most extreme form of Islam. Moreover, Ramadan has numerous connections to fundamentalist Islamic militants and is suspected by U.S. intelligence agencies of maintaining ties with the terrorist group al Qaeda.

Ramadan’s maternal grandfather was Hasan al-Banna, who in 1928 founded the Muslim Brotherhood. Ramadan’s father, Said Ramadan, led the Brotherhood throughout the 1950s and then was exiled from Egypt to Switzerland, where Tariq was born in September 1962.

In the early 1990s, Ramadan established the Movement of Swiss Muslims -- an outreach organization that exhorted Muslim youth to Islamize modernity rather than modernize Islam. He taught at the University of Fribourg a

But he was welcomed into this country by Barack Hussein Obama.

Tariq Ramadan was in Dallas at the end of July, invited by Muslim Brotherhood-tied ICNA. During a speech, he openly asked for a Muslim colonization of the U.S.

His speech is in 3 parts on Youtube. Point de Bascule has done the transcript of the most important excerpts.

It should be us, with our understanding of Islam, our principles, colonizing positively the United States of America.

We don’t want the West to be destructed. What we want is the West to be reformed.

“It should be us, with our understanding of Islam, our principles, colonizing the United States of America.” – Tariq Ramadan, Dallas, July 27th 2011

On July 27, 2011, Tariq Ramadan gave a speech at a fundraiser organised by the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) in Dallas (TX).

GMBDR describes ICNA as “a less well-known part of the Muslim Brotherhood network in the U.S., generally thought to be closely tied to the Jamaat-e-Islami organization of Southeast Asia, itself known to be allied with the Muslim Brotherhood. ICNA is particularly close to the Muslim American Society and the two organizations have been holding joint annual conventions for many years.”

The website voicesempower.com and other American websites have reported on the fact that several ticket holders, who had paid their way to listen to Ramadan in Dallas, were expelled from the conference room. In spite of that, some spectators managed to record Tariq Ramadan’s conference and made it available on YouTube.

Tariq Ramadan’s conference is available in three parts:

Part 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WDEfVdsr3M

Part 2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1ElwUjPuHE

Part 3 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2h5ZDiMQno

The highlight of the conference occurred at the beginning of the first part. Tariq Ramadan enjoins his listeners “not to be colonized” by the consumerist society then added that the Muslims should be the ones “positively” colonizing the United States of America “with our understanding of Islam, with our principles”.

Later, in his conference, Ramadan blamed his critics who refuse to be colonized by him and by those who share his “understanding of Islam”. “What does it mean colonizing?”, Ramadan asked the crowd.

Point de Bascule presents the transcript of the most important excerpts:

 Video 1 – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WDEfVdsr3M

03:21

We should all be careful not to be colonized by something which is coming from this consumerist society…

03:37
It should be us, with our understanding of Islam, our principles, colonizing positively the United States of America.

04:37
But let me tell you something. On the long run, I’m quite optimistic. I think that Inshallah (inaudible word) our future in the West is going to be a bright future, to be positive.

04:52
By the way, we are not here by accident. We are not here by accident.

05:54
We are learning how to be a Muslim. It’s difficult, it’s a challenge, it’s a jihad...

06:18
On the long run, we also have to think about our contribution. We should be a gift to the United States of America. We should be a gift to the West.

06:28
We don’t want the West to be destructed. What we want is the West to be reformed.

Video 2 – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1ElwUjPuHE

00:16
You are living in the United States of America. All last year, we heard messages coming that are attacking Islam as an alien religion, a non-American religion. And, in Europe for the last fifteen years, everywhere, we can see this, it’s not only in France, because many people are talking about France because they heard about the headscarf...

00:41
In many countries, Switzerland for four minarets... Now they are banning the construction of minarets saying the Muslims are colonizing. What does it mean colonizing?

00:51
That even myself in a prime time TV program with (inaudible name), who is the leader, the spokesperson for Swiss People’s Party, he told me: “We made a mistake with you, we gave you the nationality”, meaning you are too much a Muslim to be a good Swiss citizen.

01:08
This is the narrative behind. This is the narrative behind. The rationale behind is to make it clear: Islam is not a Western religion. You are the other. And this is what we have been facing. And in fact, for years we had the populists and we had the far-right parties saying this. The problem and be careful is not only the rise of the populist parties. The problem that we are facing in Europe is the normalization of this discourse among all the other parties.

01:40
What yesterday was said by the far-right parties and the populists now is said by all the parties. That Islam is an alien religion. That, as Muslims, what you want is to colonize the country. You want to change the very essence of our culture as Westerners and Western countries. This is the rationale of all the discourses.

02:03
And it spreads around fears. People are full of mistrust with Muslims. 75% of the French when they hear Islam, they think about violence. Now, this is what we are facing.

Then Tariq Ramadan referred to the Norway massacre and implied that those who criticize Islam are paving the way for more killings.

03:31
If you carry on this discourse about Islam being an alien religion, that we are threatening the very essence of Europe, you are nurturing such an attitude. You should also get it right. Your responsibility is to be very cautious. The atmosphere is negative. So, anyone who is following the trend could do something which is extreme, extremist and he can kill.

04:18
In eighteen (U.S.) states, and now up to twenty-two, we have people who want bills against the sharia implementation. You might think that they are not going to win and in many states they are not going to win. But in fact, they don’t want to win. This is not the purpose. The purpose is to spread around the fact that Islam is a danger. There is a threat so the atmosphere is there.

04:58
The conservatives, the tea parties, what they want in this country (in the United States) is to make Islam a problem. You want the statistics? Just after September the 11^th, ten years ago, 66% of the Americans told that this was done by a tiny minority that were not representing Islam. This was the first reaction and this is why we got such positive reactions by the Americans saying: “No, we are with you. We are even willing to protect your mosques.” And they did it. And they were there.

There is much more here.
