“The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States.”

I am overwhelmed

Amplify’d from www.floppingaces.net
George Soros, Liberal Idiots, Politics, The Shadow Party, The Shadow Warriors 

Those are the words of George Soros. And he feels the United States must be destroyed.

George Soros was born György Schwartz in Hungary in 1930. Soros, born a Jew but now an atheist, was the son of a Nazi colloaborator and accompanied his father while the father assisted in the confiscation of private property from Jews. Through it all, he feels no guilt. In fact

“70% of Mr. Soros’s fellow Jews in Hungary, nearly a half-million human beings, were annihilated in that year. They were dying and disappearing all around him, and their numbers no doubt included many whom he knew personally. Yet he gives no sign that this put any damper on his elation, either at the time or indeed in retrospect.”

Soros has called 1944 “the best year of my life.”

EXCLUSIVE: Al Qaeda Leader Dined at the Pentagon Just Months After 9/11

This Should be a Career Stopper

Oct. 2008: American-born Al Qaeda-linked cleric Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen.

Anwar Al-Awlaki may be the first American on the CIA's kill or capture list, but he was also a lunch guest of military brass at the Pentagon within months of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, Fox News has learned. 

Documents exclusively obtained by Fox News, including an FBI interview conducted after the Fort Hood shooting in November 2009, state that Awlaki was taken to the Pentagon as part of the military’s outreach to the Muslim community in the immediate aftermath of the attacks.

US Tea Partiers explain what they stand for

It Took the British, Who have a strong Aversion to "tea parties" to define the feeling....

Both main parties are elitist. Washington is full of the same type of arrogant people who look down on those outside the system. These elites don't listen to people like me - we're just part of the country they fly over.

Merkel says German multicultural society has failed

Hey Portland Oregon, If you want us to become European ....

How about Kicking the Illegal Aliens out... and the Anarchists on Two Wheels along with them.....

Amplify’d from www.bbc.co.uk

Attempts to build a multicultural society in Germany have "utterly failed", Chancellor Angela Merkel says.

In a speech in Potsdam, she said the so-called "multikulti" concept - where people would "live side-by-side" happily - did not work.

Mrs Merkel's comments come amid recent outpourings of strong anti-immigrant feeling from mainstream politicians.

A recent survey showed that more than 30% of Germans believed Germany was "overrun by foreigners".

While acknowledging that this was the case, Mrs Merkel stressed that immigrants living in Germany needed to do more to integrate, including learning to speak German.

"Anyone who does not immediately speak German", she said, "is not welcome".

America's liberals are happily arming Osama bin Laden

Amplify’d from www.washingtontimes.com
Mugshot

The extent to which the enemies of America abroad ape the anti-Western rhetoric of Western intelligentsia never ceases to amaze. The latest example features none other than Osama bin Laden, who in a recently released Internet recording lamented the massive flooding in Pakistan, for which he blamed - wait for it - climate change.

In the message, a voice believed to be bin Laden's proclaims, "The huge climate change is affecting our nation and is causing great catastrophes throughout the Islamic world," which "calls for generous souls and brave men to take serious and prompt action to provide relief for their Muslim brothers in Pakistan." But as John Collins Rudolf reminds us on the New York Times' Green blog, it's not the first time bin Laden has so railed:

Phillip Booth, “Terms”

I have no idea if I got the sailing/knot imagery even remotely cor­rect. Just tak­ing a guess to get started with this poem.

Amplify’d from www.ashokkarra.com
On land any length of rope that’s hitched

to some­thing beyond itself and takes

the strain is called the stand­ing part.

Tossed over a beam or limb, with a slip­knot

tied in the far­ther end, the stand­ing part

could be said to end in a noose. At sea,

put to use, rope changes its name to line.

Phillip Booth

On land any length of rope that’s hitched

to some­thing beyond itself and takes


the strain is called the stand­ing part.


Tossed over a beam or limb, with a slip­knot


tied in the far­ther end, the stand­ing part


could be said to end in a noose. At sea,


put to use, rope changes its name to line.


The part spliced into an eye or, say,

made fast to a shackle, the part that does

the work, that works, remains the stand­ing part.

Any loop or slack curve in the run­ning part

of the line, the part that’s not work­ing, becomes

a bight; and the part of the run­ning part

that’s let go, or finally eased off

until there’s no reserve left, is known

as the bit­ter end. As it is in other events,

ashore or at sea, that come to the end of the line.

The Scoop Deck – Ten years gone

The Scoop Deck – Ten years gone

Despite an attack that killed 17 sailors and injured 39 a decade ago, the destroyer Cole remains an active, ready combat warship -- a living, working memorial to its fallen crew members. // MC3 Matthew Bookwalter / Navy

hey have grieved and coped, reminisced and ruminated on what might have been.


The survivors of the attack on the destroyer Cole, and the families and friends of the 17 Sailors who died on Oct. 12, 2000, have had 10 long years to mourn. To keep alive the memories so children grow up knowing a missing parent. To honor the sacrifice their shipmates made.


Some have made an uneasy peace with the past. But there is one sore spot shared by many: frustration that the criminal case against the alleged mastermind of the bombing has ground to a halt.

Saudi national Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, captured in late 2002 and held for years at CIA black sites, was scheduled to be arraigned on capital murder charges in early 2009. But days before that happened, the official in charge of military commissions at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, announced she had dismissed the charges against him.




















Around the same time, President Obama took office, promising to close the detainee facility in Cuba. He met with some families of Cole victims at the White House and pledged that justice would be done, but he said the cases needed to be reviewed. Read more at m.military.com
 

North Korea succession: Kim Jong-il's oldest son reveals ruling family fissure

The Hermit Kingdom has Dissent???? The Emperor's suit is fraying:))

Amplify’d from www.csmonitor.com


North Korea leader Kim Jong-il's oldest son, Kim Jong-nam, said he is 'personally opposed to the hereditary transfer' of power to his half-brother, Kim Jong-un.

Indeed, Kim Jong-nam, the son of an actress, professed “no interest” in a decision that he said “as a matter of course” would have been made by his father. Jong-nam, whose mother died in 2002, is assumed to have lost out on inheriting leadership after his arrest and detention in 2001 by immigration officials at Japan’s Narita Airport near Tokyo. Traveling on a fake Dominican passport, accompanied by two women and a son, aged four, he reportedly said he was bringing them to nearby Disneyland.
