“The role of the President of the United States is to support the decisions that are made by the people of Israel.”          Ann Lewis, sister of former Congressman Barney Frank

The idea that the best America could achieve in Iraq would be to divide the country into Kurdish, Sunni and Shi’ite sectors is not really new. It was an old idea in 1982 when Ze’ev Schiff, the military correspondent of Ha’aretz, first suggested it. (Ha’aretz 6/2/1982). It was also mentioned by Oded Yinon in that same year in A Strategy For Israel in the Nineteen Eighties.  Continue reading “Israel’s Gift: The American Quagmires in Iraq And Afghanistan”

Hours prior to taking off for his Martha’s Vineyard millionaires’ paradise vacation, White House staff in conjunction with someone from the Pentagon, attempted to update the president on international security concerns, namely those focused on both Syria and Iraq, as well as the ongoing Gaza conflict, an attempt that was brushed off by a clearly annoyed Barack Obama who wanted nothing more than to turn his back on the demands of a job he long ago grew tired of.   Continue reading “D.C.

“That decision and our religious accommodation policies with regard to the placement of religious materials are under review,” Navy spokesman Lt. Chika Onyekanne said in a statement. “While that review is underway, religious materials removed from Navy Lodge rooms will be returned.”   Continue reading “Navy Reverses Decision to Remove Bibles From Rooms, Reviews Policy”

On Tuesday, a group of activists from the London Palestine Action group chained the doors shut at the UAV Engines factory in Staffordshire, England, then scaled and occupied the roof. Their demands? That the U.K. government end the factory’s manufacture and export of parts used on Israeli drones in light of the recent events in Gaza.

The UAV Engines factory is one of two U.K.-based subsidiaries of Elbit Systems, a company producing electronic military communication systems and unmanned aircraft systems, including the Hermes drone, which is used by the Israeli Air Forces. As such, Elbit Systems is a frequent target of the Boycott, Divestments and Sanctions movement, which targets companies that supply infrastructure to and profit off of the Israeli occupation of Palestine.   Continue reading “UK activists shut down weapons factory in protest of Israel’s assault on Gaza”

We’ve all heard that coffee is bad for you. Or is it good for you? Butter and eggs used to be bad for you, but now they’re good…or are they?

Take this recent example. A couple weeks ago, The Telegraph reported that, based on a new scientific study, all adults over the age of 50 should take aspirin every single day as a preventative measure to stave off cancer and heart disease.     Continue reading “You Would Have to be Insane to Blindly Follow the Mainstream Media’s Medical Advice”

Southern California –-(Ammoland.com)  District Court Judge Catherine Blake said military style rifles are unusual and dangerous.  That wasn’t an easy decision to reach.  Judge Blake concluded the government needs guns for its protection, but you don’t.  It is her conclusion that doesn’t make sense.  She said our modern semi-automatic magazine fed rifles are unusual.  Maybe we shouldn’t expect much acuity from her given that she was appointed by President Clinton.   Continue reading “A Judge Distorts Gun-Facts”
