Abraham Lincoln Quote

You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people's initiative
and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and
should do for themselves.~ Abraham Lincoln ~

Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi, Relative of Islamists, Freed: Boston Terrorism

• A Saudi national originally identified as a “person of interest” in the Boston Marathon bombing was set to be deported under section 212 3B — “Security and related grounds” — “Terrorist activities” after the bombing
• As the story gained traction, TheBlaze’s Chief Content Officer Joel Cheatwood received word that the government may not deport the Saudi national, originally identified as Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi
• Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano refused to answer questions on the subject when confronted by Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC) on Capitol Hill.
• An ICE official said a different Saudi national is in custody, but is “in no way” connected to the bombings.
• A congressional source, however, says that the file on Alharbi was created, that he was “linked” in some way to the Boston bombings (though it is unclear how), and that documents showing all this have been sent to Congress.
• Key congressmen of the Committee on Homeland Security request a classified briefing with Napolitano
• Fox News’ Todd Starnes reports that Alharbi was allegedly flagged on a terrorist watch list and granted a student visa without being properly vetted.  Sources close to the investigation also told him the Saudi is still set for deportation.
• New information provided to TheBlaze reveals Alharbi’s file was altered early Wednesday evening to disassociate him from the initial charges
• Sources say the Saudi’s student visa specifically allows him to go to school in Findlay, Ohio, though he appears to have an apartment in Boston, Massachusetts
• Sources tell us this will most likely now be kicked from the DHS to the DOJ and labeled an ongoing investigation that can no longer be discussed.

Obama Buries Boston Massacre Saudi Connection

Moochelle visits Saudis in hospital

Michelle visited the soon to be expelled, Alharbi, and the other injured Saudi at the hospital, a female doctor named Nura Khalid Saleh al-Ajaji: “Michelle Obama visited the two injured Saudis Abdulrahman Ali Essa Al-Salimi Al-Harbi and Nura Khalid Saleh Al-Ajjaji to check on their medical conditions.” Adding credibility to this report seems to be multiple tweets made by the inner circle of the Al-harbi family:
Saudi National and Boston Student Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi Is Being Deported by ICE

Ricin
Ricin is a highly toxic substance derived from castor beans. As little as 500 micrograms -- an amount the size of the head of a pin -- can kill an adult. There is no specific test for exposure and no antidote once exposed.
Napolitano does not have any clue here: she had already declared that there is no indication that Boston was part of 'broader plot,' but then the ricin was delivered. Why and how she could make such a overarching assessment is not clear when we know so little. The Obama administration has slashed the budget for domestic bombing prevention by 45 per cent.
Importance of the day
The bombings took place near the finish line inside the Fairmount Copley Plaza Hotel, according to multiple local reports. The horror unfolded as the city marked the 238th annual Patriot's Day, commemorating the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord at the beginning of the Revolutionary War.
Devices
Similar pressure-cooker explosives have been used in Afghanistan, India, Nepal and Pakistan, according to a July 2010 intelligence report by the FBI and Homeland Security. Also, one of the three devices used in the May 2010 Times Square attempted bombing was a pressure cooker, the report said. An al Qaeda magazine, Inspire, in 2010 directed terrorists to use kitchen materials to make bombs, including pressure cooking bombs, for killing “tens” of people.

According to Poe, the explosives used were “similar” to IEDs used in Afghanistan. He even said that early reports he had heard said there may have been “ball bearings” inside.
The devices, based on examination of post-strike video, appear to have been small and may have been concealed in small bags or boxes, officials said. The size of the device can be judged by the lack of structural damage to the windows and buildings adjacent to the blast sites, they explained. The smoke seen after detonation was consistent with the results of a low-velocity improvised explosive mixture, perhaps something like flash powder or a sugar chlorate mixture. Based on the relatively small number of casualties and the types of wounds caused, it is likely that the attackers packed the devices with nails or other improvised shrapnel.
Rep. Bill Keating said he had been told two more devices were found, but not detonated. One was said to be at a hotel near Copley Square, the other was at an undisclosed location. "The authorities also found a device at St. James and Trinity Streets that did not explode, the person said, and two other devices were found, including one in Newton, outside of Boston." "A senior U.S. intelligence official said two other bombs were found near the end of the 26.2-mile course."


Islamist connections
Mohammad al-Chalabi, from a Salafi Islamist group praised the act of terrorism. Islamists such as CAIR - Council on American Islamic Relations immediately went to social media to express concern this could be an act of an Islamist.
Obama begins cover up; refuses to call terrorist bombings an act of terrorism, and warns against rushing to judgement before justice, as in a criminal investigation, is dealt.
Obama meets with Saudi foreign minister, was not on public schedule.
Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi, a Saudi national, was not regarded as a suspect.
His prominent family includes senior jihadists, Gitmo prisoners.

The military already had a presence at the scene. "National Guardsmen [were] assigned to the race for crowd control."

"Intelligence officials told The Associated Press stated two unexploded devices were being dismantled," now a third incident near the JFK Library in the Columbia Point section of Dorchester was considered a fire investigation.

One person of interest has been cleared. There are no suspects.
Rep. Ted Poe (R-Texas)confirmed that law enforcement officials are “watching” a 20-year-old “person of interest” which he called a “Saudi national” who is here on student visa. The DHS has recently eased restrictions and allowed Saudis easier access to the country.
"A civilian claims the person was acting suspiciously and chased him down and tackled him after the explosions." "Authorities have recovered surveillance video from the area which shows a man with what looked to be two backpacks near the scene just moments before the blast." "One of those, a person in whom there is some interest, is a young person who was here on a student visa." The person of interest is in Brigham and Women's Hospital. "Authorities say they are searching for a darker skinned or black male with a black backpack and black sweatshirt, possibly foreign national from the accent of the individual. Five minutes before the first explosion, officials said this person attempted to gain entry to a restricted area. When turned away, he broke eye contact and pulled his sweatshirt hood over his head and left, officials said.
Law enforcement is also looking for a yellow Penske box truck that tried to gain access with "medical supplies" approximately 1 hour after the explosion.

Islamist Tries to Shut Down Free Speech: Pamela Geller at Chabad in Great Neck, Nassau County

The Chabad event in Great Neck resulted in hundreds who came out to hear Pamela Geller and to stand for free speech. The rooms at the Chabad House were all jammed, with people standing in the aisles. It was an overflow crowd with another 400 to 500 people who watched the event on a jumbotron set up outside in an outdoor theater. Glen Buckley, father of Lance Cpl Greg Buckley who was shot and killed in a green on blue attack, also spoke.

News 12 report on Pamela Geller's speech at Chabad Great Neck and the subsequent free speech rally calling for the resignation of Habeeb Ahmed of the Nassau County Human Rights Commission, April 14, 2013.

About 200 patriots were there for the rally, declaring that they weren't intimidated. Robert Spencer started off with a succinct explanation of the war on free speech and why much more was at stake in this incident than just one speech; then Ashraf Ramelah of Voice of the Copts detailed how the Muslim persecution of Christians in Egypt and elsewhere is justified by the same Islamic law that denies freedom of speech. Helen Freedman of Americans for a Safe Israel drew out more about the importance of standing up against these intimidation tactics, and Pamela Geller concluded the rally with a point-by-point refutation of the smear flier about Pamela that the enemies of freedom had distributed outside the shul that morning.

American Filmmakers Agree to Communist Chinese Censorship

"Revisions are becoming increasingly common before American films are shown in China, with American filmmakers adhering to the demands of Chinese censors."

Kerry Invites Communist Chinese to Profit from America

"But for true private sector private investment, we have countless opportunities and we welcome that investment. One of the things I’ve discussed with the State Councilor tonight was the possibility of China investing in infrastructure. We have proposals in the United States Congress to creature infrastructure bank. We have huge infrastructure needs in the United States for a certain series of projects like water projects, transportation projects, energy projects. Those are all revenue-producing projects. So they are projects from which pension funds and other kinds of investments can make a return on investment and everybody benefits. It’s a win-win-win. It’s a win for the investors, it’s a win for the countries, and ultimately it’s a win for the place where the infrastructure gets built."

North Korea: China 3, U.S. 0

Kerry stated that there could be an "eventual cutback [which] would address Chinese concerns about the buildup of American weapons systems in the region."

"the two countries announced that they endorsed the principle of ridding the Korean Peninsula of nuclear weapons, though China did not state publicly what steps it might take to achieve that goal."

"Previous administrations responded to North Korean provocations by eventually offering aid to tamp down tensions, only to see the North’s promises to relinquish its nuclear program evaporate once the aid had been delivered."

China, 3, the civilized world and the U.S., 0.

The Koran on Unbelievers

Qur’an 3:32—Say: Obey Allah and the Apostle; but if they turn back, then surely Allah does not love the unbelievers. 

Qur’an 5:51—O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people. 

Qur’an 9:29—Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the Religion of Truth, from among the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. 

Qur’an 9:30—And the Jews say: Uzair is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away! 

Qur’an 9:73—O Prophet! strive hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be unyielding to them; and their abode is hell, and evil is the destination. 

Qur’an 9:111—Surely Allah has bought of the believers their persons and their property for this, that they shall have the garden; they fight in Allah's way, so they slay and are slain; a promise which is binding on Him in the Taurat and the Injeel and the Quran; and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? Rejoice therefore in the pledge which you have made; and that is the mighty achievement. 

Qur’an 9:123—O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness; and know that Allah is with those who guard (against evil).

Qur’an 98:6—Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islam, the Qur'an and Prophet Muhammad) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikun will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures. 

Sahih Muslim 33—It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. Umar that the Messenger of Allah said: I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, and they establish prayer, and pay Zakat and if they do it, their blood and property are guaranteed protection on my behalf except when justified by law, and their affairs rest with Allah. 

Sahih Muslim 4366—It has been narrated by ‘Umar b. al-Khattab that he heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) say: I will expel the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula and will not leave any but Muslim.

Oh, BTW, North Korea May Have Nukes Capable of Delivery by Ballistic Missiles

Rep. Doug Lamborn (R) of Colorado began quoting from what he said was an unclassified version of the DIA report, which has not yet been made public. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey, the nation’s top military officer, appeared caught off-guard.

“They say, ‘DIA [Defense Intelligence Agency] assess with moderate confidence the North currently has nuclear weapons capable of delivery by ballistic missiles. However, the reliability will be low.’ General, would you agree with that assessment by DIA?” he asked

“I can’t touch that one,” Dempsey answered.

The problem was that the report hasn’t been released, he said. “Some of it’s classified, some of it’s unclassified.”

Lamborn tried asking the question again, heedless of the sensitivity of the topic. “This is public; this is unclassified, so I can make it public.”

“And your question is do I agree with the DIA’s assessment?” Dempsey repeated.

“Yes,” Lamborn responded.

“Well,” Dempsey answered, “You said it’s not publicly released, so I choose not to comment on it.”

School Propaganda

A mother at a Wisconsin public school said her daughter’s eighth grade class was assigned a worksheet with definitions for “conservatism” and “liberalism.”

Conservatism, it stated in part, believes in “preserving traditional moral values by restricting personal freedoms” while liberalism is for “equality and personal freedom for everyone.”

“This is indoctrination,” Tamra Varebrook, a Republican activist in Racine, Wis., told TheBlaze on Thursday after her 13-year-old daughter showed her the crossword-style vocabulary sheet from Union Grove Elementary School.
