Editorial: Why INCREASE Refugees after Terrorism?

Editorial

As the U.S. reels from YET ANOTHER group of Muslim terrorist attacks, the president wants to INCREASE the amount of Muslim Refugees to enter the U.S.

He has said that he will state this to the United Nations, and after that, he will accuse the Republican party of a government shutdown if they don't agree to fund this increase with the budget's Continuing Resolution.

Will Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell stand up to him? Their spinelessness was one of the main reasons for the rise of Donald Trump.

GOP Blames Victim For Media Rape

An interesting article from http://www.vdare.com about the EXTREME bias in the media! This follows this post about Donald Trump's recent endorsements. Remember, “Amnesty” means ANY non-enforcement of existing immigration laws! This follows this comment and this post about how to Report Illegal Immigrants! Also, you can read two very interesting books HERE.

It's particularly bad when you consider that Trump's "controversies" are un-PC statements, and Clinton's scandals are actual felonies.It's particularly bad when you consider that Trump's "controversies" are un-PC statements, and Clinton's scandals are actual felonies.

Ann Coulter: GOP Blames Victim For Media Rape


511nk5odwLL._SY344_BO1204203200_-198x300[1]Even having predicted that the media’s attacks on Trump would be unprecedented, I’m still amazed. Every single news outlet is dedicated to hysterically denouncing Trump, every minute of every day, while cooing at Hillary.
Everything Hillary has ever touched has failed, been engulfed in scandal, resulted in massive investigations, litigation, financial ruin, prison or death. The final stage of any Hillary enterprise is a grand announcement that Hillary did not technically break the law. Or no one can prove she did. Or, even if she did, no one ever gets prosecuted for it.
She’s prone to coughing fits and lapses of memory in the middle of speeches, and falls down all the time. But that’s not nearly as important as the media’s manufactured story about Trump throwing a baby out of a rally!
Trump is supposed to be joined at the hip to David Duke based on not “disavowing” him with sufficient ferocity the 17th time he was asked about this person he’s never met, never mentioned and didn’t invite to speak at his convention.
Hillary invited the mother of violent cop-hating criminal Mike Brown to speak at her convention, and the Democratic platform expressly endorses the anti-police Black Lives Matter–even as these celebrated cop haters inspire the mass slaughter of police officers across the country, in New York City, Dallas and Baton Rouge.
hillaryrallyNow we find out that another honored guest at Hillary events is the father of Omar Mateen, the Muslim jihadist who murdered 49 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando a few months ago. On Monday night, he attended a Hillary rally where he sat cheering, right behind her on the stage.
Is David Duke’s father given VIP seating at Trump events? (As long as you mention it, did David Duke gun down 49 people in June? Or ever? Or anyone?)
Via the Media Research Center, a typical, possibly coordinated media attack.
ADVERTISEMENT
It took the national media 24 hours to mention the fact that the jihadist’s father is a big Hillary supporter, sitting in the camera’s line of sight at her Florida rally. A Google search of Trump and David Duke produces more than 11 million hits. A Google search of Hillary and Omar Mateen gets a few hundred thousand hits.
Hillary’s being supported by the father of a jihadist is treated like back-page stuff, presented amid florid excuses and rationalizations. It was a staffer’s mistake, an “unforced error,” and Hillary’s opponents are “leaping on it.”
The main story this week: The media’s psychotic claim that Trump called for Hillary’s assassination.
Trump said: “Hillary wants to abolish, essentially abolish, the Second Amendment. If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know.”
Hmmm. What could Second Amendment people “do”? One thing they could do is what they did do — in 1994. That was the year gun rights supporters voted out dozens of Democrats who voted wrong on guns, ushering in the first Republican Congress in 40 years.
It’s been nearly a quarter century, and the Democrats are still so traumatized by their sweeping losses in 1994, that, even after Gabby Giffords was shot in Arizona, even after the Aurora movie theater shooting, even after the Sandy Hook massacre, Democrats refused to take up a gun bill in the U.S. Senate.
Apparently, the only news you’ll be getting from now until the election is the media’s own insane interpretation of every little thing Trump says or does. Anyone remember the week-long scandal about a star on a Trump retweet?
No one, not even Joe McCarthy, has ever faced this level of obsessive hatred from our constitutionally protected guardians of liberty in the press. Anyone else would be chewed up and spit out after one minute of such relentless attacks.
But sissy conservatives who have never faced one minute of press hostility blame the victim, saying it’s Trump’s fault for giving the media openings to twist his words.
The sissies have no idea what they’re talking about. There’s no way to phrase something so that it can’t be lied about. Here are the first three lines from an affectionate article on Hillary Clinton in Wednesday’s New York Times:
— “Hillary Clinton Hopes to Capitalize on Republican Defectors
Hillary to accept bribes from Goldman Sachs, Halliburton and the Koch brothers.
— “Hillary Clinton’s campaign would like to turn the drip-drip-drip of Republican defectors abandoning Donald J. Trump into a deluge.”
Hillary supports the use of Chinese water torture.
— “On Wednesday, after days in which several high-profile Republicans said they could not support Mr. Trump or were endorsing Mrs. Clinton, her campaign introduced an official outreach effort to target Republicans …”
Hillary campaign to “target” Republicans for murder.
There’s no strategy for overcoming this level of media hostility. Trump has made some mistakes during this campaign, but he hasn’t done anything wrong for months now. He could say “yes,” and the media would change the question to, “Are you a child molester?”
Craven Republicans who blame Trump for the media’s lies may as well blame a rape victim for wearing a short skirt. Except with Trump, it’s the Muslim standard: They’re blaming a woman’s rape on being a woman.

“The Infiltrator”: Suspenseful, Well-Acted Flick Shows Sacrifices of Undercover US Customs Agents

Here is an interesting article from http://www.debbieschlussel.com/ reviewing some of the movies that came out over the past weekend. This follows this post about some of the movies from last week and THIS POST about some movies that have been released over the past few years that you might have missed! This all follows this post about guidelines to choosing good movies to watch yourself!

“The Infiltrator”: Suspenseful, Well-Acted Flick Shows Sacrifices of Undercover US Customs Agents

By Debbie Schlussel
theinfiltrator







The Infiltrator (Rated R),” in theaters today, is a stark reminder of the sacrifices made and risks taken by U.S. Customs agents. And it’s a solid reminder of why the post-9/11 elimination of the U.S. Customs Service and its agents (most of whom became ICE agents) was a huge mistake, along with the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. The movie is a must-see. And it’s one of the best movies I’ve seen so far this year, and still would be in a year with better movies.
I liked this movie because the good guys are good and the bad guys are bad. There is no moral equivalence here. Robert Mazur, the real-life U.S. Customs agent who risked his life and those of his family members to serve our country, is a decent honorable man. He refuses to cheat on his wife, even when duty “requires” it while working undercover.
Bryan Cranston is Mazur and undercover operative who brings down drug dealers and kingpins. He has the opportunity to retire after an on-the-job injury and many years of hard work. But, instead, Mazur agrees to pose as an accountant who money-launders cash. The movie follows Customs’ “Operation C-Chase,” in which Mazur and his fellow agents helped the U.S. government bring down major players in Pablo Escobar’s and Manuel Noriega’s drug rings, as well as the BCCI–the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, owned and run by Muslims. (Not shown in the movie is that the bank also laundered money for Islamic terrorists and corrupt Muslim regimes–a redundant phrases.) The operation was so successful that it took down 85 high-level drug cartel operatives and corrupt bankers (though I was amazed at the short sentences the men got, as described in a postscript at the end of the movie).
John Leguizamo plays Mazur’s partner in the operation, Emir Abreu. I’ve never been a fan of Leguizamo, but this role is custom-made for him. The beautiful Diane Kruger looks more stunning than ever here as Kathy Ertz, the agent who pretended to be Mazur’s fiancee in the undercover operation.
This movie is extremely violent (it is NOT for kids), but that’s necessary to show the ruthlessness of the men with whom Mazur was dealing and the risks he took to do his job and carry out this operation. These were dangerous, vicious savages who wouldn’t have hesitated to torture Mazur, his wife, and his young children to death. There are several suspenseful scenes showing us how easy it would have been for Mazur to have been discovered and murdered. And the movie does them well.
But the movie isn’t entirely serious. There are moments that are funny and light. And the movie is very entertaining from beginning to end. There’s never a dull moment, and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. You will be, too. Yes, we’ve seen some of this story before, but I haven’t seen it told this well on the silver screen in a long time.
The acting in this is excellent, as is the attention to detail, including 1980s decor, clothing, cars, and pop culture, including the soundtrack. The script is written by 67-year-old first-timer Ellen Brown Furman, the retired trial lawyer mother of the movie’s director, Brad Furman. She captures well the angst and sorrow some federal agents feel at the end of their operations, as they’ve come to subconsciously “like” those whom they are ensnaring.
Also, I’d also be lying if I denied taking pride in the fact that two of the “good guys” in this movie are real-life Jewish Americans–Mazur and Bonni Tischler–who betray the lie that Jews aren’t tough guys serving America in federal law enforcement.
This movie is mostly true, and you can learn more about it at History vs. Hollywood. But don’t do so until after you’ve seen it because the site contains a lot of spoilers.
There are a few minor things I didn’t like about the movie. First, there’s the portrayal of an American businessman who was vital to the operation as a Black man. But, in fact, this man, who undertook great risks to his family to help the Customs agents (without earning a penny for it), was White in real life. More about him in another post later today. I hate fictional “diversity.” It’s simply fraud and never goes the other way (Owen Wilson will never be cast as Martin Luther King, Jr., I promise you).
I also didn’t care for the one-sided portrayal of Tischler, who was the Commissioner of the U.S. Customs Service at the time. The movie is based on Mazur’s memoir, The Infiltrator: My Secret Life Inside the Dirty Banks Behind Pablo Escobar’s Medellín Cartel, and he and Tischler did not get along. She is portrayed as nearly ruining the entire operation and then taking credit for its success.
Tischler was the first female federal law enforcement agent to rise to head an agency, and her story is almost as interesting as the story told in this movie. As readers know, I’m no feminist and I loathe affirmative action based on female plumbing. But Tischler was not that kind of woman. She was tough and earned the job, having risen from the first female federal air marshal (then called a “sky marshal”) to leading some of the biggest, most successful law enforcement operations. She is played by Amy Ryan here, and is depicted at the time when she headed the U.S. Customs Service office in Tampa, Florida. I know many former Customs agents who worked with Bonni Tischler, and they liked her. Said one, “I know her well. She was a pit bull, so I’d be surprised that she would have messed up the operation [as portrayed in the movie].” Tischler died of breast cancer at age 60 in 2005, so she cannot defend herself.
Get Yours . . .

And finally, I could have done without the leftist-tinged, anti-American postscript at the end of the movie alleging that the U.S. used BCCI accounts to fund the Nicaraguan freedom fighters, a noble cause.
Other than that, it’s a great movie. And Robert Mazur– is a great American who, to date, cannot show his face because of the threats he continues to face for the excellent work he did. These drug cartels have long memories.

Obama's CVE Program Is an Outrage -- and the Republicans Are Funding It


BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: If there's anything approaching on today's program a... I kind of hate to use the word "bombshell," but this is close.
If you are wondering, "Okay, how is a guy named Omar Siddiqui Mateen, with his family history and other things obviously clear, not learned about...? How does he pass a background check?"  Well, we have to thank the Obama administration for that.  I have a series  of stories here that are gonna boggle your the mind.  The first is from the French News Agency.  The headline: "Threats Against Muslims Must Stop After Orlando Attack: US Authorities."  Threats against Muslims must stop now.
"US authorities on Wednesday warned that threats against Muslims would not be tolerated, and possibly prosecuted, after alleged incidents in the wake of the Orlando gay club massacre, which was carried out by a Muslim gunman.  ...  'Civil rights violations are a priority for the FBI,' assistant special agent Ron Hopper told reporters. 'We will investigate reported incidents against individuals based upon any class, any protected class, to include race, religion, and sexual orientation.'"
So the focus of the United States government, the FBI right now, is trying to find people who might be threatening or saying negative things about Muslims, targeting them, finding them, and exploring ways to punish them.  That's just the tip of the iceberg.  Have you heard about the Obama counterterrorism strategy called Countering Violent Extremism?  It's actually... That's what it's called: CVE.  Have you heard of that?  Well, let me tell you about it.
Because the Republican leadership in the House is preparing now to meet Obama's request for $40 million of additional funding for the Countering Violent Extremism program.  The FBI is trying to investigate these terror threats, and you just heard that threats against Muslims must stop, and FBI says, "We're vigilant! We're looking out for this."  Are you also looking out for threats against America by Muslims?  Well, we presume so, but no. You would be wrong.  We're not allowed to!  That's what the CVE is.  You're not gonna believe this.
The FBI is trying to investigate terrorist threats but is hamstrung by this Countering Violent Extremism program.  The name, Countering Violent Extremism, was carefully chosen in order to suggest that there is no particular ideology causing the threat.  "Countering Violent Extremism" could require investigators to focus on extremist right-wingers -- and, in fact, does.  "Countering Violent Extremism" is carefully chosen in order to suggest that no particular ideology is causing the threat.  Any kind of "extremism" (such as in right-wing groups) that could lead to violence, will be investigated.
The theory behind Countering Violent Extremism -- the theory of the strategy -- is that, number one, Muslim communities have uniformly rejected terrorism so we don't need to investigate them. We don't need to, because they're a religion of peace.  Remember now, you think it's a joke, but Obama and the Democrats, when they say, "Terrorism has nothing to do with Islam; it's a bastardization; Islam is a religion of peace.  All these people out there, ISIS, ISIL, claiming to do what they're doing for Islam? They are not Islamists! They are extremists; they are not Muslim."
The acting belief, philosophy, policy of the United States government is Muslim communities have uniformly rejected terrorism; therefore, they don't need to be monitored or investigated.  Number two.  Instead of aggressively collecting intelligence with radical Islamic communities and suspects who could cause a threat, the FBI... Are you sitting down? The FBI is required to partner with "Muslim community leaders," who are essentially members of the Muslim Brotherhood.
The FBI, according to the Countering Violent Extremism initiative, should partner with Muslim community leaders like the Muslim Brotherhood, who will serve as our eyes and ears to let us know if there's a problem.  So the FBI cannot monitor -- by virtue of this program, law, whatever, we cannot monitor -- Muslim communities.  We are not supposed to!  We are to rely on Muslim community leaders within those communities to tell the FBI if there's something we need to be worried about.
Now, when you see this, all of this focus on Christians and all this focus on the NRA and all this focus on other extremist groups kind of makes sense.  I mean, it doesn't make sense.  But the fact that Mateen's a Muslim?  "No, no! No, no! He couldn't have been because Islam's a religion of peace.  They don't do this."  That's Obama's story, and he's sticking with it, and since it's Obama's story, it's the story of the federal government. It's the story of our investigative agencies.  The FBI is reportedly highly frustrated over this.
They cannot, day in and day out... There are exceptions, obviously. But day in and day out, they cannot investigate Muslim neighborhoods, communities, mosques.  They have to rely on "outreach to Muslim community leaders" in those mosques and neighborhoods to tell them if there's something going on in there that they need to be worried about.  And that's why it's called Countering Violent Extremism, not Countering Violent Islamic Terrorism, for example.  "Islamic" and "Muslim" is specifically left out of the title.  Now, this is insane, folks.
Not only is it commonsenseless; it's insane.  It's tying both hands behind our back, and we see the result.  You wonder how this gets equates gun, how does this guy pass a background check?  Hello, Countering Violent Extremism!  We're not allowed to find out.  We cannot use anything... "Okay, we've got a guy. We can find out what his put on the internet. We can find he's predisposed to violence. He's not happy with America. His father was an Islamist sympathizer." Can't use any of that!
We can't use it, because we're not allowed to Hoover up that kind of information unless Muslim outreach partners inform us.  So when a guy goes to get a gun, he passes our background checks, and that's it! You wonder how? This is how.  This is why things like Orlando happen.  We're not allowed, by virtue of Obama's legislation... Well, it is legislation, because this is the icing on the cake.  It's about to run out of money.  I mean, the FBI's trying to investigate, but they are limited by these guidelines -- Countering Violent Extremism -- that do not allow them.
Here's the bottom line or the upshot of this: Countering Violent Extremism does not permit the FBI to factor radical beliefs when determining whether there's a criminal threat.  We're not allowed to go there.  We're not... Call it a variation of profiling.  Not allowed.  But this is not profiling; this is hard, cold evidence we are to ignore it.  We're not allowed to use it because of Countering Violent Extremism limitations on investigating Muslim communities.  So why is Paul Ryan pushing to fund this program an additional $40 million in the next budget?
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH:  Look, there is much more on this CVE and the related items.  I have a short amount of time left in this segment, so I'm gonna wait until the segment following the next break commences to get into more detail on it.  And you can continue to digest it.  And it's inexplicable.  It's in utter defiance of common sense.  It's so outrageous, I'm sure many people don't believe it.  "Rush, that can't be true.  You're either having fun with us or you're just wrong.  It can't be true."  Folks, it's true and there's more.
It's even worse than what you've heard so far.
The practical application of CVE and its implications just have some more earth-shattering details to share with you.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Okay.  Look.  In addition to this Countering Violent Extremism, tell you what's coming up.  We've got the CIA director.  He admitted... He just totally pulled the rug out from under Obama yesterday, admits that ISIS is coming into the country via refugees.  They're coming in, sneaking in via the immigration program.  He said that ISIS is bigger than ever, cutting... Obama said, "We've got them on the run. They're in smaller numbers than they've been in 7-1/2 years."  John Brennan just painted an entirely different picture what Obama said yesterday.
The difference is, nobody's gonna hear what Brennan said because he was in congressional testimony on C-SPAN, maybe a couple news networks for 20 minutes, and Obama had a national address that everybody in the Drive-Bys covered.  So nobody's gonna hear Brennan.  They're gonna hear us talking about Brennan and they're gonna think, "Well, Limbaugh and the conservatives, they don't like Obama so they're probably making it up."  So you can't get through to people 'cause they can't critically think anymore.
People don't know the difference between fact and opinion. And I'm getting off the beaten path.  I want to stick with this, because so many people say, "Why can't we stop these people?"  We're not permitted to, because the administration has implemented policies that tell our investigators -- like the FBI -- things they have to ignore.  And it's all part of the Countering Violent Extremism initiative.  I'll take you back to San Bernardino.  One of the mass murderers in that attack was named Tashfeen Malik.
Some of this, I'm sure, you're gonna remember as I go through it.  "San Bernardino mass-murderer Tashfeen Malik wrote social-media posts," like on Twitter, Facebook and wherever else, "that endorsed jihad and expressed disdain for America. Yet, that did not cause US immigration agents to question her admission into our country... In fact, our government consciously avoided learning about Malik’s Islamist rants," because they were required to by law.  They're not allowed to go there!
Writing at National Review, Andrew McCarthy says, "Commentators stunned by this dereliction are attributing it to 'secret' guidance issued by the Department of Homeland Security."   Folks, again, I want to tell you: This is not my opinion.  This is not anybody's opinion.  This is fact.  It's the same thing with Mateen here.  They had to ignore. The background check people on the guns, whatever this guy had written on social media, hatred for America -- go, go ISIS! -- jihad. We're not allowed to even investigate it! If it was discovered, we had to forget it.
Our agents had to forget it.  They were not permitted to because of Obama's policy, Countering Violent Extremism.  I'm not making this up.  I mean, it puts a new light on what Trump said, you know, there may be something going on with Obama here.  None of this is making sense, and it doesn't make sense.  When it was learned in the aftermath of San Bernardino that one of the killers had practically telegraphed her intention all over social media and that investigators ignored it, people said: Well, you know, must be some secret guidance issued by Homeland Security, 'cause nobody's this stupid.
Well, "there is nothing secret about it. The instruction to refrain from scrutinizing social-media commentary," which is a huge source of intelligence!  You got people all over this country vomiting everything about themselves because they want to be famous.  They want to be noticed.  Social media is all about, "Notice me!  Notice me!  I matter.  I'm important."  So people put everything about themselves on social media -- and some of them put the most outrageous stuff -- hoping to get noticed.  They crave followers.  And these clowns are no different.
And yet our investigators are under orders to ignore all of that.
"The instruction to refrain from scrutinizing social-media commentary ... is a straightforward application of what passes for the official Obama administration 'anti'-terrorism strategy, known as 'Countering Violent Extremism.' Malik, a native Pakistani, who immigrated to the United States in July after living for a time in Saudi Arabia," as did Mateen, "joined her husband, Syed Rizwan Farook, in [killing] 14 people in San Bernardino, California... Government officials now concede that Malik was inadequately screened before being permitted to relocate to the United States on a K-1 visa, issued because she was the fiancee of Farook, an American citizen.
"The couple married soon after her immigration. Malik's visa approval was already the stuff of scandal even before the latest revelations -- especially in light of President Obama's plan to admit thousands of immigrants from Syria and other bastions of Islamic supremacism, which inevitably breeds violent jihadism. Right after the massacre, it emerged that Malik had provided government screeners with a fake Pakistani address. She may also have been educated in a notoriously anti-Western madrassa. Neither fact was discovered during the vetting process,"   because the investigators are not allowed to pay attention to it.
And if they see it they are required to ignore it because they are not allowed to factor it in.  You're saying, "This doesn't makes sense, Rush."  It doesn't!  I know!  But remember the original point I made about the CVE.  FBI investigators admit they're frustrated.  They cannot themselves investigate Muslim communities because Islam is a religion of peace.  Muslim communities are thought to already have no violence in them.  This is straight from Obama, straight from the Regime.  The only way the FBI can learn of potential problems coming out of a Muslim community is if their partners -- community outreach specialists within that Muslim community -- inform them.
Well, it turns out that the people the FBI interact with happen to be Muslim Brotherhood or CAIR or other such representatives.  That's the only way the FBI can learn officially what's going on.  They're not allowed to do it! I know this doesn't... Folks, I can imagine you're saying, "Rush, this doesn't make sense.  You have to have something wrong here."  I know you're thinking that.  Even though you trust me implicitly -- even though after 28 years, 27, whatever it is, you know instincts I don't lie or make things up -- you still can't believe this.  This doesn't make sense.
I'm telling you, there's not a syllable, there's not a consonant, there's not a vowel of exaggeration in this.  The reason why this has all come up is because the CVE is about out of money.  It needs an infusion, and the Republicans are prepared to send Obama another $40 million to keep it going.  And people are asking, "Why?  Why?"  The thing is, what happened in the case of the San Bernardino Two and what happened in the case of Mateen whatever, these are not glitches.  These are not examples of our system not working.
These are examples of the system doing what it was designed to do: Ignore certain inarguable signs of who we're dealing it, under the premise that Islamic is a religion of peace and that there is no terrorism.  These people claiming they're conducting terrorist acts in the name of Islam are not Islamic, not Muslims.  That's Obama!  That's apparently his belief, and therefore the official belief US government.  A Power Line story today. I think this is John Hindraker. I'm not sure, but headline: "How Not to Counter Domestic Terrorism --
"Sources tell me that Speaker Paul Ryan is pushing this week to fund the Department of Homeland Security's 'Countering Violent Extremism' (CVE) program to the tune of $40 million. If you didn't know anything about this program, it might seem like a good idea for Ryan to get CVE funded in the wake of the Orlando massacre. ... You can tell from the name of the program that it's misguided," and it's designed to mislead.  Countering Violent Extremism?  You mean...? Why don't you just...? This is why the whole business of labels is important.
Obama, why won't you say militant Islamic terrorism, extremist Islamic terrorism?  Why won't you say it?  Precisely 'cause of this!  It doesn't exist, in his world.  Countering Violent Extremism imagines movies being shot up by wacko members of the Tea Party.  Of course, the things they imagine right wingers doing doesn't happen, don't happen.  "'Violent extremism' didn't produce the Orlando shootings..." Now, wait.  Now, wait.  See, this is important.  You're thinking, "Rush, now, come on."  No, no, no.  "'Violent extremism' didn't produce the Orlando shootings..."
Violent extremism did not cause the San Bernardino massacre.
Islamic terrorism did it. Islamic militant whatever you want to call it. Militant Islamic extremism, militant Islamic terrorism, Islamic extremist terrorists, that's who is responsible for Orlando and San Bernardino, not "violent extremism."  Violent extremism is specifically meant -- the way it's worded and structured by this administration -- to omit Islam.  And, in fact, that's the practical application.  Muslim communities are ignored as investigators try to find the answers to violent extremism.  Well, you can't find the answer when you not allowed to go look at the cause.  The cause is Islamist terrorism.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Here's Josh in Brick, New Jersey.  You're next.  Great to have you on the program.  Hello.
CALLER:  Hi.  Thank you for taking my call, Rush.
RUSH:  Yes, sir.
CALLER:  You referenced before about how the Obama administration is basically spending more resources targeting people that are going after Muslims, than the actual Muslim extremism itself. And I think the answer is very simple:  Obama has said very clearly that he views these Islamic terrorists as, you know, they just happen to get extreme information "off the internet," as if it's a computer virus that could happen to me, can happen to you, can happen to anyone.  It doesn't really represent an ideology.  But the people that don't like Muslims, they're bigots, and they really represent an ideology that has to be defeated.  That's just how I see it from here.
RUSH:  Well, you've got a point.  If I understood what you're saying, you're saying that Obama's saying that militant Islamic extremists, there's nothing really Muslim about 'em or Islamic.  They're just being radicalized.  We gotta forgive 'em, gotta accommodate, gotta explain 'em.  But the people that oppose 'em, they are really the problem. These are bigots, these are racists, these are Islamophobes, and we've gotta stop 'em.  Is that what your point is?
CALLER:  Exactly.  And he even said that they became radicalized over information on the internet, as if it was just a virus.
RUSH:  Right.  That's when Hillary is saying, "I don't know how you build a wall to keep the internet out."  Same thing.  These... Look, there's a -- I don't know -- willful denial.  Folks, I'll tell, when I found out about this CVE program today that I led off discussing, Countering Violent Extremism. When I read through that and I learned about it, I told a friend, "You know, I may not be able to talk about this today 'cause this has me so enraged. I might say things here that would get me in deep trouble, because it doesn't make any sense."
I just have to tell you flat-out: To tell the FBI you can't investigate Muslim communities when going after potential terrorism, because there isn't any in those communities because Islam's a religion of peace -- and the terrorists are not really Islam or Muslim, they're bastardizing it -- and the only way the FBI can actually learn, legally learn anything about those communities as if an appointed representative of that community shares the information with the FBI, such as in one of these appointed entities is the Muslim Brotherhood?
So if say the Neighborhood Watch commander in a Muslim neighborhood senses that something might be happening with one of the people that lives there. He can call the FBI and tell 'em, "Hey, there's something going on."  But the FBI cannot learn it on its own.  It cannot investigate it on its own.  That's federal law, as we sit here today.  The San Bernardino terrorists broadcast their intention all over social media.  FBI, under law, had to ignore it.  Ditto the Orlando terrorist.
In the aftermath, we learned that he was all over the internet telling people his anger, what was enraging him, and what his intentions were.  The guy called the FBI during the act.  He was on the FBI watch list.  They didn't do anything about it.  People said, "Why not?"  Now we know.  They're not allowed to.  The guy called the Washington Post in the middle of the act.  He calls 911; he calls the Washington Post.  When I heard that, I said, "Aand it still happened?"  He calls 911 in the middle of his rampage!  When you discover this, when you learn this, you say, "Wait a minute! This doesn't make any sense."
There's no amount... Talking about critical thinking, there's no amount of logic that explains any of this to me.  And I seriously... I thought about it. When I came across information last night and into this morning, I weighed whether or not to even get started talking about it, 'cause I had to put a muzzle on myself.  It's so senseless.  It doesn't seem that you can assign this to willful blindness.  It doesn't seem that you can assign this to willful ignorance.  Something like this does not... You can't categorize this as good intentions gone awry.  It has never made sense to me.
Every time there is a terror attack -- I don't care if it's in Paris, I don't care if it was in Belgium, I don't care if it's San Bernardino or Orlando -- what's the first thing we hear from authorities?  "Do not rush to judgment! We must guard against a backlash against Muslims."  That has... I can't tell you how often I have been profoundly suspicious of that.  It makes no sense.  There isn't a backlash.  We aren't committing acts of terror against Muslim communities in this country.  It just doesn't happen.  I can't think of a single instance!  It's the other way around.  And every time we're told, "You better watch out!  You can't afford any backlash here!" It's just... None of it makes any sense -- on the surface.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: This Obama.  This is from Tuesday afternoon.  We've heard the CIA director today, John Brennan, testify under oath before a Senate committee that ISIS is as big and bad as ever and that they're infiltrating America via our refugee program and immigration, and that we should be very concerned.  And this is exactly the opposite what Obama said two days ago.  So again I ask: Who are we to believe?  And I mean that.  Look, I... The CIA director's under oath.
The CIA director just threw Obama under the bus.  But it's budget time in Washington at the same time.  And the CIA has many budgets, including the black budget that nobody ever sees.  Got all kinds of money in it for black ops that nobody ever sees and that we never know.  But it still has to be appropriated.  Here we have the first of two.  This is Obama at the Treasury department.  This from the press conference where he got all defensive about people accusing him of never using the term "militant Islamic extremism" or "terrorism."
OBAMA:  All told, ISIL has now lost nearly half of the populated territory that it once controlled in Iraq.  And it will lose more.  ISIL continues to lose ground in Syria as well. Assisted by our Special Operations Forces, the coalition of local forces is now pressuring the key town of Manbij, which means the noose is tightening around ISIL in Raqqa as well.
RUSH:  Well, all well and good. But it's not what we were told today by the CIA director.  The next one...
OBAMA:  Our coalition continues to be on offense, ISIL is on defense, and it's now been a full year since ISIL has been able to mount a major successful offensive operation in either Syria or Iraq.  As ISIL continues to lose territory, it also continues to lose the money that is its lifeblood.  As a result of our strikes against its oil infrastructure and supply lines, we believe that we've cut ISIL's revenue from oil by millions of dollars per month.  In destroying the storage sites where they keep their cash, we've deprived ISIL of many millions more.  Cutting off ISIL's money may not be as dramatic as military strikes, but it is critically important, and we're seeing the results.
RUSH:  Okay, now, don't be distracted by the details. Because those details could be true, and ISIS could still be inspiring attacks here.  The point is, the president's intention, after Orlando, was to comfort the nation. "Hey, look, this stuff? Don't be concerned about it! We're beating 'em.  I mean, they're lashing out. These are last gasps."  But, on the other hand, they continue to happen.  Regardless what ISIL's strength or weakness is, acts of terror continue to happen that we somehow don't seem able to stop.  So these efforts to calm everybody and comfort us, and then the CIA director goes out there and directly contradicts this.  It's not good.

RUSH: Dallas, Texas.  Chuck, great to have you on the EIB Network.  Hello.
CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  Thank you for taking my call.
RUSH:  Yes, sir.
CALLER:  Rush, I don't believe this is all just happenstance. I believe it's been pretty methodical.  I'm not a conspiracy theorist or anything like that, but it's a very methodical way to change.  And the best way to do things sometimes is what you tell people. Tell 'em what you're gonna do and just leave it open.  We've known all along that this country was supposed to change, and I think targeting all Western countries as soft targets is the way to change the mind-set of how we do everything.  Everything from religion --
RUSH:  Wait, wait.  I need to catch up with you.
CALLER:  Yes, sir.
RUSH:  What do you think is all part of a plan? What are we talking about here?  You mean the CIA director contradicting Obama?
CALLER:  CIA director contradicting Obama? How about the DOJ telling the FBI not to do certain things?  You don't have to make giant transition points.  You just have to whittle away a little at a time.
RUSH:  Okay.  So you said something about soft targets.  You've jumped into... You think I know your point halfway in, and I don't know what your starting point here with.
CALLER:  Starting point is: This has all been methodically planned out for a long time.
RUSH:  What has been methodically planned out?
CALLER:  The deconstruction of Western Civilization.
RUSH:  Oh, you're talking about a macro issue.
CALLER:  Yes, sir.
RUSH:  And so the assault and the desire to destroy Western Civilization, Western culture devised long ago, and it's been implemented piece by piece? So we're just seeing it now finally come to fruition, and we're just now catching up with it?
CALLER: I mean, what else could it be? What other theories are out there?  Nobody's doing it to the Chinese.
RUSH:  Well, oh, yeah, a lot of people tried.  Just the ones that do end up in jail --
CALLER:  Or dead, right.
RUSH:  -- or lynched or, you know, run over by a tank.
CALLER:  Yeah.
RUSH:  Look, hang on here.  Now that I know your starting point... Don't misunderstand my tone.  It's not your problem.  I just want to make sure I knew what you're talking about before I comment.  Hang on through the break and we'll pick it up when we get back right after this.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Okay, back to Chuck in Dallas.  So your premise is that there has been a long-thought-out, long-implemented strategy amongst enemies of ours around the world to effectively destroy Western Civilization; and it sounds like you think that we're actually helping them do it?
CALLER:  Yes, sir.  Just take, for example -- you'd mentioned it just today -- the CRVE (sic) that Obama wants to put through that --
RUSH:  No, it already exists.
CALLER: It already exists.  Okay.  Well, when did it start existing?  Did it start existing when Obama came into office?  If that --
RUSH: Yes, although -- although -- George Bush was sympathetic to this whole notion that we shouldn't --
CALLER:  I'm not -- I wouldn't exclude any president.  This is just one doc that just says: "Hey, we have to do this to not allow the FBI to do this so we can move forward with our overall plan."
RUSH:  Well, you made the point that the ChiComs are not letting it happen to them.  It seems to be Western civilization, which is the Western European democracies, which are now socialist democracies. They're under assault. Europe is under assault.  It's so bad over there that Great Britain's hoping to get out of it.  That's what the Brexit debate is all about, British exit from the European Union.
CALLER: Right.
RUSH:  Because it's been stampeded by enemies of Western civilization, and they're here, and they're coming across borders. Not just the southern border. They're coming in through New York. They're coming in the visa program. They're coming in as refugees.  And we're welcoming 'em in with open borders, under the presumption that that's what America is.  We actually have people saying that. To a certain extent, Chuck, I understand what you're saying, because it looks like... If you just casually glance at it, we have people who think the Constitution's a suicide pact.
That in the name of openness and in the name of human rights and in the same of civil rights, and in the name of whatever the hell else rights that you want to conjure up, we have a duty to let anybody come into this country with any purpose whatsoever "because that's what our values are. That's who we are.  We let anyone in, whatever and whoever they are."
And it seems like lately the more grievances they have against America, the better.  I don't like getting started on this 'cause I get so ticked off. I get so ticked off. I get ticked off at people that voted; I get ticked off at Republicans that won't stand up to this.  I got... What was I thinking about earlier?  It was about how some of this stuff is gotten away with.  I don't know.  I can't think of it now.  It will come to me later.

Current Events & Trends: Nation-states struggle with immigration

An interesting article from http://www.ucg.org/ about immigration. This follows this post about Valentine's Day. This follows this post about the papacy. For a free magazine subscription or to get the books recommended for free click HERE! or call 1-888-886- 8632.
 
As in Paris, the perpetrators are usually Muslim immigrants. The scale and the intensity of the rioting has caused some observers to question the common belief that Sweden has treated immigrants much better than most other European countries.
Turkey has also experienced major riots in a number of cities, although immigration is not necessarily a major causal factor. Apparently there is widespread dissatisfaction with the government in power and the prime minister in particular. It's hard to be both a Western-style democracy and an Islamist state at the same time. The two don't fit together well.
Most nations have their share of disaffected immigrants, including the United States. The drophead of a London Times article by BBC Radio 4 presenter Justin Webb states, “Immigration will change the US in ways its politicians are only just beginning to grasp” (June 4). The article is titled, “America's Future Is Latino, Asian and Liberal.” Future North American demographics are slated to lean much more toward Central and South America.
The Anglo-Saxon vote is no longer expected to be a deciding factor in future U.S. presidential elections. Immigrants who have or will obtain citizenship and voting rights may well impact future elections in a big way. If and when the funds run out and the government can no longer print money legally (see “In danger: the status of the U.S. dollar”), we could possibly see massive rioting in major American cities on a scale and intensity that will shock the world and perhaps bring the nation to its knees. (Source: The Times [London].)

FBI anti-extremist website for kids on hold after Muslim, Arab groups protest

A timely post about from www.jihadwatch.org about the FBI being weak against Islamic extremism. This follows this post about Donald Trump and Islam. This follows this article about American energy independence and preventing money from going to hostile countries. For more, you can read two very interesting books HERE.You can follow me here.


FBI anti-extremist website for kids on hold after Muslim, Arab groups protest

Once again we see the Islamic advocacy groups in the U.S. opposing counter-terror efforts and claiming they unfairly single out Muslims. The idea that today’s politically correct Obama FBI, which refuses as a matter of policy to study the ideology, motives or goals of the jihadis, would create a program that was unfairly singling out Muslims is laughable. But these groups are determined to remove all obstacles to the jihadi advance, and to obstruct any and all efforts to impede that advance.
obama-fbi
“FBI anti-extremist website for kids on hold after Muslim, Arab groups protest,” RT, November 2, 2015:
The website, called Don’t Be a Puppet, offers users exercises, as described by the Washington Post, or “a series of games and tips,” as reported by the New York Times, that aim to teach children signs to watch for that may indicate someone is falling deeper into extremist behavior. As players answer questions correctly, a pair of scissors cut the puppet’s strings until it is set free.
“The quiz asked students: What would be activities that would concern the FBI?” the Post reported.
Some of the options included a youth posting on Facebook that she intended to attend a political protest, a young person posting about feeling emotional about something or a youth with a stereotypically Muslim-sounding name who ‘posted that he’s going overseas on a mission [and] does anyone want to chat?'” Hoda Hawa, director of policy and advocacy for Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC), told the Post.
“All our hands went up, like: What’s with this?” Hawa added.
The FBI would not detail the program or why it decided to hold off on releasing the website, but did offer a statement on Sunday.
“The FBI is developing a website designed to provide awareness about the dangers of violent extremist predators on the Internet with input from students, educators and community leaders,” an FBI spokeswoman said.
MPAC and other Muslim, Arab, Yemeni and Sikh advocacy groups were briefed on the site by the FBI last month. At the meeting, the FBI also discussed its “Shared Responsibility Committees,” which would be groups of community leaders and FBI agents who would share information on particular kids. Participating groups said they voiced concern with the agency, and with the US Department of Justice, over the plan.
“We were all on the same page in terms of being concerned,” said Hawa told the Post. “It seems like they’re asking teachers to be extensions of law enforcement and to police thought, and students as well. That was very concerning to us all.”
During “a very tense meeting” between the groups and the FBI, the law enforcement agency included a tutorial of the program various types of potentially-violent groups and ideologies, as well as some personality swings that could lead to extremist behavior, Abed A. Ayoub, legal and policy director for the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, told the NY Times.
The FBI said during the meeting that it would reach out to schools to promote participation, and that some school districts in Northern Virginia had already committed, Ayoub said.
“The one that should be involved is the Department of Education. The FBI is overreaching its mission,” Ayoub told the Post. “This kind of thing should come from professionals who create educational curriculum. You don’t just have a law enforcement agency get it out to students without thinking about the ramifications on students in schools.”
The groups at the meeting said the program fails to address issues relating to the common occurrence of school shootings in the US, with most of the emphasis on extremism relating to Muslim or Arab communities.
Domestic extremists, such as white supremacists and right-wing groups, have been responsible for twice as many murders in the US since 2001 as “individuals motivated by Jihadist ideology,”according to a June report by the New America Foundation.
Reading too much into disaffection or alienation of youth can also be problematic, experts say.
“There is concern this will lead to a high level of self-policing and shut off open debate. If concern about US foreign policy and its impact is considered a sign of alienation, or call it what you will, people will stop talking about that, and that’s counterproductive, because you want safe spaces, rather than pushing kids on-line,” Faiza Patel, co-director of the Liberty and National Security Program at the Brennan Center for Justice, told the Post.
The Justice Department told the groups that the committee plans were also on hold for now, the Post reported.

DHS deadline: Tell Congress Not One Red Cent To Obama's Amnesty‏

An interesting article from www.alipac.us about the DHS deadline. This follows this post about DHS, Loretta Lynch, and impeachment. This follows this post on HOW amnesty is funded in ways other than the DHS. Remember, “Amnesty” means ANY non-enforcement of existing immigration laws! This follows this comment and this post about how to Report Illegal Immigrants! Also, you can read two very interesting books HERE.
I am leaving TWITTER SOON. Please continue to follow me here.


DHS deadline: Tell Congress Not One Red Cent To Obama's Amnesty


Activists
Many of you have heard that Senator Mitch McConnell has already caved and surrendered to Obama and the Democrats on funding amnesty for illegals! We predicted this and were the first group in America to tell everyone that McConnell would bow because in truth McConnell serves the same masters as Obama and supports what Obama is doing on immigration.
We still have hope in the House thanks to brave members of Congress, many of whom are supported and encouraged through your support for ALIPAC.us.
Take fast action today to call Congress and raise your voice in anger!
Step 1: Call Mitch McConnell (202-224-2541) after reading this article here (click) about how he is facilitating Obama and the illegals. Let him really have it! Tell him you will never forget the lies, treachery, and support for Obama and illegal alien amnesty coming from Mitch McConnell!

Step 2: Call John Boehner (202-225-6205) and let him know that you know he supports the same kind of amnesty for illegals Obama does but you want him to stay strong and keep pretending to oppose Obama as best he can. Tell him "not one red cent more for the Obama administration."
Step 3: Call all Republicans in the US Senate, even the ones who say they oppose Amnesty and Obama's plan, and chastise every single Republican for "caving to Obama, facilitating Obama, agreeing to fund Obama's amnesty, supporting amnesty for illegals! Call them, raise your voice, accuse them, put them on the spot. Tell them "it is better to shut down the Department of Homeland Security than to have that agency violate our immigration laws and constitution by following unconstitutional amnesty orders from Obama!"
Senate Contact info link...
http://www.senate.gov/general/contac...nators_cfm.cfm

Step 4: Call all Republicans in the US House, (you can call Democrats too but every single one of them supports Obama's amnesty decrees) and tell the House GOP Reps to "Shut down DHS! Not one red cent for Obama! Stop this Dictatorship! Impeach Obama! Stop Amnesty!"
House contact info link....
http://www.house.gov/representatives/

TODAY IS THE FUNDING DEADLINE FOR DHS AND REPUBLICANS ARE TRYING TO CAVE IN. WE NEED A HUGE WAVE OF CALLS THAT ARE LOUD AND FIRM. CHASTISE ALL GOP SENATORS. TELL ALL GOP HOUSE REPS YOU SUPPORT THEM STANDING STRONG AGAINST OBAMA!

Let's roll, Americans!
