This is not a surprise for those who have been watching Iran's actions and actually taking them at their word when they say such things like "Death to America" while sending lethal weapons into Iraq and Afghanistan, for starters. This latest move, in Iran's continued quest for hegemony in the region and beyond, will probably only be a surprise to those who thought it was possible to negotiate with the largest state sponsor of terrorism. I am afraid time will show what a mistake it was for the leaders of the free world to not have helped the Iranian ...
My latest. As diplomacy talks are set to begin today between Iran and the permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany (the G5+1) to deter the Iranian regime from pursuing their nuclear weapons program, the Obama-Clinton foreign policy strategy to date appears to have strengthened Iran’s murderous regime. Last Friday, President Obama revealed that another Iranian uranium-enrichment facility is buried at an Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps base near Qom. President Obama has known about this formerly secret facility since he became President-elect and was selecting his foreign policy team that would craft, as Secretary of ...
Less than 24-hours before President Obama’s scheduled Afghanistan policy announcement, Sen. John Kerry released a report entitled: “Tora Bora Revisited: How We Failed to Get Bin Laden and Why it Matters Today.” If Sen. Kerry, the Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relation’s report is a precursor to President Obama’s Afghanistan policy, expect a litany of Bush bashing to abundantly flow on Tuesday night. In the opening Letter of Transmittal to his colleagues, Sen. Kerry took a deliberate swipe at the Bush Administration when he wrote in part: “Our inability to finish the job in late 2001 has contributed to a ...
Obama's "Buy American" protectionism policies have forced America's long time allies to pursue business opportunities else where. Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper's administration inks another trade deal, this one with Jordan. Here's the official press release: Canada Introduces Implementing Legislation for Free Trade Agreement with Jordan The Honourable Gerry Ritz, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and Minister for the Canadian Wheat Board, on behalf of the Honourable Stockwell Day, Minister of International Trade and Minister for the Asia-Pacific Gateway, today introduced legislation to implement the Canada-Jordan free trade agreement (FTA) and related agreements on labour cooperation and the environment. “Farmers know that ...
Another backtrack. President Obama has ordered his Attorney General Eric Holder to look for another location to hold the 9/11 terror trials. As I noted when the decision was made, the only surprise is that anyone in the Obama administration thought it was a good idea in the first place. The White House ordered the Justice Department to consider other places to try the 9/11 terror suspects after a wave of opposition to... Read More
Last week the Obama Administration announced they were transferring suspected terrorists from Gitmo to Thomson Correctional Facility in Illinois to create jobs. Today a hearing, mandated by State Law, intended to decide the pros and cons of selling the correctional facility to the Federal government, begins at 2:00 PM. It is open to the public. It is also worth noting that prison overpopulation is an issue in several... Read More
Back in 2004, under the Bush Administration, it was revealed that the men and women of the US armed forces were sent to war without the proper equipment, now five years later, according to John Donnelly’s report at Congress.org, under the Obama Administration, the problem persists. Soldiers’ complaints spur inquiry Senior Democrats on the House Armed Services Committee have asked Pentagon leaders to explain... Read More
While countries around the world, in virtual lockstep, refuse to accept the relocation of their own citizens– suspected terrorists–from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, a House-Senate panel of the Illinois legislature will consider Governor Quinn’s (and the Obama Administration’s) plan to sell the Thomson Correctional Center, to the federal government to house the Gitmo detainees. The panel will meet in northwest Illinois,... Read More
For a preview of what New Yorkers and Americans can expect when the Obama Administration, at taxpayer expense, brings the 9/11 terrorists to Manhattan to be tried in civilian court, instead of trying them under a military tribunal at Gitmo, read the unclassified 7-page Pro Se Filing Order from Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Wallo Bin Attash, Ramzi Bin As-Shibh, Ali Abo Al Aziz Ali, Mastafa Ahmed, Al-Hawsawi called “The...

An email apparently from President Barack Obama was just sent out to his supporters asking Americans to “donate $5 or whatever” they can “afford today,” to “fight alongside” him in the final stretch for health care reform. Organizing for America paid for the campaign email. In the email, the President of the United States, referring to health care opponents, said, “So I have a message... Read More
Freedom demonstrations have broken out in Iran. Once again, thousands of brave Iranian people are rising up against the largest state sponsor of terrorism, the Iranian regime. Reportedly, the anti-regime protestors are chanting “Death to Khamenei, ” referring to Iran’s Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. “This feels like 1979 in reverse, the students are leading the battle and the regime of...

New Yorkers came out today to protest Obama’s attorney general Eric Holder’s decision to bring admitted 9/11 terror mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali, Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi, Ramzi Binalshibh and Waleed bin Attash to New York City to be tried in federal district court. Among the many speakers was Debra Burlingame, the sister of one of the pilots murdered in the cockpit of the plane... Read More
Please watch. Update from What Bubba knows It would be interesting to create a poll with these two photos and have people guess what’s happening. I suspect that most would never assume anything close to the real story. It appears to be a joyous homecoming, a reuniting of mother and son. The truth is not so heart warming. The lady in the picture is the mother of an American that was ambushed in Fallujah, Iraq.... Read More
