Palestinians: Peace With These Tossers?

If only the "Peace Now" Israelis took their heads out of that Haaretz rag and wiped their tookhes with it instead. Below's the mind set of the Pali pus-pots you think you can kiss and make up with.
Terror Bomber Barghouti

Convicted Fatah terrorist Marwan Barghouti, currently serving five life terms in Israeli prison for his role in several terror attacks during the second intifada, would win a presidential election against both Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, a poll released this week found.
The poll, conducted by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PSR), shows clear improvement in the standing of Haniyeh and Hamas during the second quarter of 2012, while Abbas and his Fatah movement have declined in popularity during the same period. (Jerusalem Post)

You see "Peace Now" people... even the Islamofascist Hamas is no longer extreme enough for the degenerate Palestinian bastards. So...are you still going for that old Chamberlain cry of "peace in our time"? Yes? Oh deary me...there really is no fucking hope for you lot! (Photo: Copyright Control)

Asian Americans: THE Success Story!

African Americans make up just 13.6% of the population in the US but they make up 40% of the prison population. Meanwhile, Asian Americans - many of whose ancestors arrived on US shores without English, poorly educated and with less than zilch - are forging ahead. The question is: Why the Asian success? The answer is very much the same for the Asian contingent as it was for the Jewish one which went before: the vital importance of a good education; that coupled with a positive can-do attitude no matter the obstacles put before them. For this formula is identified as the pathway to success whither it be the new immigrant or first born in the adopted country.
A Personal Story: By Tony Sagami.
Things have changed significantly for the better since 1957, when my mother and I journeyed to the United States from Japan. Our long, two-month trip on a slow naval transport ship must have been frightening to my then-20-year old mother. But she was eager to start a new life in America ... a place where anybody who studied hard and worked hard could be successful. “In America, anybody can get rich if they work hard,” she told me. Those lectures and demands for academic excellence from my mother paid off for me, my siblings and my children.
Today, Asian-Americans are the best-educated, highest-income and fastest-growing group in the United States, according to a new report from the Pew Research Center. The opportunities for Asians to advance their education and/or their incomes in America are leading to very many opportunities 
Asian Students out in the field.
My brother is a high-level executive at Nordstrom, my sister is a skilled physical therapist, and my children have always done well in school. My oldest son Ryan will soon begin his PhD studies, and my daughter Keiko was a perfect 4.0 student and the valedictorian of her class.
I am sad to say that my mother died 11 years ago from cancer, but her dreams have become a reality for my family and other Asian-American families all over the United States.
A new study from the Pew Research Center, “The Rise of Asian Americans,” showed just how far Asian-Americans have come. The Pew Research reported that Asians are now immigrating into the U.S. in greater numbers than Latinos, which was quite a surprise to me.
Last year, Asian-Americans accounted for 36% of all immigrants while Hispanics accounted for 31%.
Pew concludes that this shift in immigration leadership was a combination of declining illegal immigration from Mexico because of beefier border control and a weak U.S. economy; while the demand for highly skilled workers from India, China and South Korea increased.
Overall, Asian-Americans still make up a fairly small percentage of our population. The 2011 Census numbers showed that 5.8% of the population is Asian while 16.7% is Hispanic. (the six largest Asian subgroups being: Chinese, Filipinos, Indians, Vietnamese, Koreans and Japanese).

Asians’ Ascent in America.
These immigrants all have one thing in common: They are looking for a better life and are willing to work hard and take on the challenges in order to achieve this.
When my grandfather, Fusakichi Sagami, arrived in the U.S. more than a hundred years ago, he and other Asian-American immigrants were uneducated and limited to what Pew Research called “low-skilled, low-wage” jobs. My grandfather worked in kitchens as a dishwasher and then as a cook until he saved enough money to buy a small vegetable farm in western Washington. His hard work of those of the early immigrants has paid off. “A century ago, most Asian-Americans were low-skilled, low-wage laborers crowded into ethnic enclaves and targets of official discrimination,” says Pew. These days, the median annual household income of Asian-Americans was reported at $66,000, with Indian-Americans accounting for $88,000, compared with a U.S. national average of $49,800.
The educational credentials of the new immigrants are impressive. 61% of the immigrants from Asia ages 25 to 64 have at least a bachelor’s degree, making them the most highly educated group of immigrants in U.S. history. That is double the percentage of non-Asian immigrants.
Finding Education in America.

Asians are not only coming to the U.S. to work but also to attend college. Today, the majority of international students enrolled at U.S. colleges are from Asian countries.
Those Asian students are focusing on science degrees. Among all doctorate-holders who live in America, a majority in computer science (57%), electrical engineering (57%), civil engineering (54%) and mechanical engineering (52%) come from abroad. Now, those Asian students don’t just show up in the U.S. and enroll in Harvard or Stanford. Every foreign student needs to prove his or her proficiency in English by passing the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) and this they do, before going on and out into their lives.
Education, education, education is not just some meaningless slogan; and these who ignore it's message will, and currently do, live very much with the consequences. (C) Tony Sagami. (Photos: Copyright Control)

Dangerous Man, Elephantine Ego...

Bleeding Our Intelligence!

President Barack Obama, in his desire to establish credentials as the killer of Osama bin Laden, in his desire to get re-elected, Obama has badly hurt  America’s ability to acquire data on terrorists.

My re election is so much more important...



The Obama Administration outed a sensitive Saudi-British penetration of  Al-qaeda which revealed ongoing plans to use more “underwear bombers” against the West. The Obama leak was designed to make Obama look good, but it destroyed a highly valuable penetration of Al-Qaeda. 
Similarly, Obama’s team outed what appears to be an Israeli-led effort to stop Iran’s nuclear bomb program by using sophisticated computer viruses. Obama and Co. wanted part of the credit, and so the story came out with nice pat on the back for Obama.
This is part of a pattern for this administration. It invited film crews to the White House to film the made-for-TV movie about Obama VS. Osama. Sensitive information about US procedures leaked out.
Intelligence and intelligence sources come in many forms. Police know this. They jealously guard their undercover efforts and their data. With terror it is even more important, because the real purpose of counter-terror operations is preventing the terror act, not winning a conviction in court.
Israeli officials often decide not to try for a conviction against terrorists in open court, always preferring to stop the terror attack before it can materialize, especially in the case of a “ticking bomb”—a terror assault that is already in the pipeline. The cardinal rule is always the same:
ONE NEVER THROWS AWAY COUNTER-TERROR INTELLIGENCE.
This means technological or signal intelligence—such as wiretaps or monitored bank records or radiation or heat traces, and it also means human intelligence such as penetrating a terror organization or getting information from terrorists who are captured.
Since 2002, Western counter-terror intelligence brought us slowly but surely to Osama Bin-Laden, but more importantly, it saved thousands of American and British lives by alerting us to plots for huge terror attacks in London, Miami and Los Angeles, among many others.
The intelligence saved thousands of lives, but  President Obama and his team have taken a cavalier and almost arrogant approach to counter-terror intelligence, and they spill it when it is politically convenient.
Intelligence and imagination are the two main weapons against  terror, not drone air craft. The Obama team seems to be unarmed—having given away intelligence, while, like Clinton, never really pursuing the intuitive need for imagining where and how terrorists might be preparing to strike.
Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta and counter-terror aide John Brennan  are noted for their ability to spill information. Bill and Hillary Clinton have been among the big braggers about getting Bin-Laden. This is the same Bill Clinton who barely met with some of his CIA and FBI directors while he served as president from 1993-2000 when Al-qaeda was preparing 9-11.
Data on hostile radical Muslims that reaches the intelligence community is often treated as “prejudiced,” as not “politically correct.”  That is exactly how the *Fort Hood massacre happened because Army personnel were told to ignore Major Nidal Malik Hassan’s pre-murder performance! 
The Fort Hood attack could have been prevented, according to a 61-page Senate report, but the information was ignored.

Israel: Putin Listens...

Russia ‘won’t shed a tear’ over an Iran attack.
Look Ben...we don't want Islamic nutters with
nukes either!
High-ranking officials in Jerusalem yesterday were pleased with the quiet agreement that Israel reached with Russian President Vladimir Putin.   “Russia won’t shed a tear.” said the officials. Putin is keenly aware of the fact that a radical Islamic regime with nuclear capabilities on its southern border won’t contribute anything to Russian national security.

Meanwhile...in the UK:
MI5 Director:  The Arab Spring provided new breeding ground for British terrorists!

A bit of the bleedin' obvious here, but nevertheless it's a most welcome statement from the big chief.
But gosh Rodger....Abdul swore he
was just a simple keeper
of camels.
So much Mills & Boon type romance has spewed out of the media about the so called Arab Spring, from the likes of the Guardian (UK), New York Times and other liberal loopies, that a shot of realism up their collective botties is long overdue...not that it will cure them from their deluded, wishful non-thinking.

Roy Kelton Orbison (April 23, 1936 – December 6, 1988) was an American singer-songwriter, best known for his distinctive, powerful voice, complex compositions, and dark emotional ballads. Orbison grew up in Texas and began singing in a rockabilly/country and western band in high school until he was signed by Sun Records in Memphis. Between 1960 and 1964,  he had 22 of his songs placed on the Billboard Top Forty, including "Only the Lonely", "Crying", and "Oh, Pretty Woman" Lacking the photogenic looks of many of his rock and roll contemporaries, Orbison eventually developed a persona. He had no publicist in the early 1960s, no presence in fan magazines, and his single sleeves did not feature his picture. Life magazine called him an "anonymous celebrity". Tragedy struck Orbison on June 6, 1966, when he and his wife Claudette were riding home from Bristol, Tennessee. She was struck by a semi-trailer truck and died instantly.Orbison was initiated into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987 by longtime admirer Bruce Springsteen. The same year he was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Songwriters Hall of Fame two years later. Rolling Stone placed Orbison at number 37 on their list of The Greatest Artists of All Time, and number 13 on their list of The 100 Greatest Singers of All Time.

The song was used in the Jon Cryer film Hiding Out released in 1987. Due to the success of the song, lang received the Entertainer of the Year award from the Canadian Country Music Association. Lang would win the same award for the next three years, in addition to two Female Vocalist of the Year awards in 1988 and 1989. The release of her Shadowland album in1988, produced by Owen Bradley, went on to be named Album of the Year by the Canadian Country Music Association. (Wikipedia)

Arizona? Where Is That?

Obama: Just Doing What He Fucking Likes!
Yesterday the United States Supreme Court delivered a ruling on Arizona’s immigration law, aptly described by Rep. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) as “a bit of a mixed bag.” Three-out-of-four provisions of the statute known as SB1070 were struck down, but the really important one requiring police officers to check the status of someone they believe to be in the country illegally was unanimously upheld!
So what does Obama immediately do?No sooner had the court ruled, than the administration acted. Yesterday afternoon the Obama administration announced that it was suspending existing agreements with the Arizona police, and issued a directive telling federal authorities at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to decline many of the calls reporting illegal immigrants that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) may get from Arizona police. “We will not be issuing detainers on individuals unless they clearly meet our defined priorities,” one official, speaking on the condition he not be named, told the Washington Times. Furthermore, DHS pulled back on a program known as as 287(g) that allows federal officials to deputize local officials for the purposes of making immigration-related arrests. A DHS official said that the Obama administration has decided those agreements are “not useful.” And not just in Arizona. States that have enacted laws similar to Arizona’s will be getting the same treatment! C) Arnold Ahlert.
Put simply, Obama is telling everyone who won't do his bidding to swivel! Oh..and there's even a new phone number for the folks in Arizona to call if they don't like the way a law enforcement officer is drinking a coffee or looking at them. 
Anyone who knows Obama's background, his friends and associates, won't be a tad surprised. Obama and the word democracy are mutually exclusive. He's a fake. A con man...and if re-elected, you ain't seen nothing yet...

Al-Qaeda: 440,000 US Muslims Think They Are Just Fine!

With the Islamofascist *Muslim Brotherhood having won the election about to make Egypt a train wreck and kick start another Caliphate, more than ever we need to be on guard.
 Meanwhile back in the USA, this is how the figures break down and why the NYPD and everyone else needs to do whatever it takes to keep this Muslim Fifth Column down in the dunny. As for the Radical Left; aka a Jihadist without the paperwork (the Koran); almost as much attention has to be given to these shifty shit-bags.
Anything that makes the limpo liberals in the NYT and other deludies steam, can't be bad...and it also lets you know, the appropriate authorities are sniffing 'em down along the very right set of tracks!
And don't give me that crap about Islam being
a religion of peace!
Please do read the article below:
The US congressman Peter King (above) has held his fifth congressional hearing on dangers posed by the radicalisation of Muslim Americans. As chairman of the committee on homeland security, King has argued that the US faces a pre-eminent threat from homegrown Muslim American terrorists. Last summer he launched the hearings in response to the perceived danger.
Previous hearings have examined the scope of radicalisation in US communities, Muslim American radicalisation in US prisons, the Somali militant group al-Shabab's efforts at Muslim American recruitment and the threat to US military communities posed by homegrown terrorists.
Wednesday's hearing, entitled "The American Muslim Response to Hearings on Radicalisation within their Community", was aimed at gauging the impact the previous meetings have had on the nation's Muslim population.
In his opening statement King insisted the discussion was essential to US national security, citing statistics that showed 90% of terrorist attacks have been carried out by Muslims.
While noting that the "overwhelming majority of Muslim-Americans are outstanding Americans", King added "the reality is that the Islamist terrorist threat comes from that community". He referenced a recent Pew Poll that he said demonstrated "16% of Muslim Americans have a favourable or only a somewhat unfavourable view of al-Qaida". "That adds up to almost 440,000 people who are living in this country," he said. "That is why we have held this series of hearings and why we will not back down."
The New York congressman invited three witnesses to testify: Dr Zuhdi Jasser, president and founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy; Asra Nomani, a former Wall Street Journal reporter and the author of Standing Alone – An American Woman's Struggle for the Soul of Islam; and Dr Qanta AA Ahmed, author of In the Land of Invisible Women, a memoir on living and working as a western Muslim woman in Saudi Arabia. Each maintained the hearings are a key tool in combating a growing threat.

"What these hearings provide is a dialogue," Jasser said. The danger of homegrown terrorism should not be insulated by religion, he argued. "The threat, if anything, is growing."
The Arizona physician and navy veteran has been one of King's most stalwart allies in advocating aggressive scrutiny of Muslim Americans. Jasser has been criticised for his role in narrating a film called The Third Jihad, which posits that American Muslims of all stripes are in the midst of an effort to seize control of the country. The film was shown to nearly 1,500 NYPD officers in training, prompting the predictably massive backlash from Muslim community groups and legal organisations.
Nomani, also an outspoken supporter of the NYPD's Muslim surveillance efforts, said the Muslim community needed to "grow up". "Americans are very frustrated with Muslims," she said, arguing that Muslims are "wound collectors".
"When you have that cycle of wounds you create a circle of denial," she said. "So that you end up saying: 'You're picking on us.'"
Ahmed said Muslim American communities were reminiscent of authoritarian Islamist regimes she had visited abroad. "I've seen the impacts of violent Islamist extremism," she said. "It's clear that similar patterns are at work here in the United States."
Ahmed maintained that the hearings were not an occasion to promote*Islamophobia but rather an opportunity to advance critical debate. "This is not a civil rights issue," she said.
