1. Today is the 10th anniversary of the Al-Qaeda muslim train bombings in Madrid Spain.

More tribute videos can be seen here and here.

2. Michael Ross: Was Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 headed for Asia’s Twin Towers?

Is it possible that MH370 was a 9/11-type plot, in which …the target was the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur? Until recently, they were the tallest buildings in the world. And even now, they remain a spectacular centerpiece to Kuala Lumpur’s skyline. You can see why terrorists would find them a tantalizing target.

3. Diane Fienstein upset that government agencies are spying on senate computers. No word about the fact that the entire population of the USA has lost its 4th amendment rights as guaranteed by law, and that massive illegal data collection and storage is being perpetrated against the taxpayers and citizens of the US and selective enforcement against people, using this data, who are not accused of a crime. Obama’s America. One law for me, another for thee.

4. Foreigners to be offered free treatment for HIV on the NHS 

(This should be easy to pay for. Just cut off all medical funding and pensions to military vets and reduce services to local indigenous British people who have been struggling to raise families)

 Those from abroad, including failed asylum seekers, students and tourists are currently barred from receiving free HIV treatment – unlike other infectious diseases.

However, the Government is to support proposals recommended by peers which will end the “anomaly” and allow free treatment even for those not legally settled in Britain.

5. Here is another way the UK can pay for the above services

  3. Egypt doctor faces trial over fatal female genital mutilation

    A doctor in Egypt will face trial for performing a female circumcision operation that killed a teenage girl, a judicial official said on Tuesday.

    The 14-year-old girl’s father who took her to the doctor for the procedure will also face trial, the official said.

    Although banned in 2008, female genital mutilation is still rampant in Egypt, especially in rural areas where many believe it is part of their faith.

    The doctor in the Nile Delta city of Mansoura performed the dangerous procedure at a private clinic.

    The operation involves the removal of the clitoris and sometimes even more extreme mutilation, which proponents argue ‘purifies’ women from sexual temptation.

    The practice has been common among both Muslims and Christians, said Nehad Abolkomsan, who heads the Egyptian Centre for Women’s Rights.

    A survey in 2000 said the procedure had been carried out on 97 percent of the country’s married women.

    A 14 year old youngster, called Mohamed is a party member of the FN tells his story. Brave or foolish. He appeared in a local newspaper a while back. He disagrees with halal food since it doesn’t respect the Christian values of France. Ironically despite what the French mainstream press try to protray the fn, there are those from an immigrant background who support it.

  5. March 11 2014 – US Congress demands Russia withdraw, mulls Ukraine aid

    The US Congress on Tuesday demanded Russia immediately withdraw from Ukraine and urged US President Barack Obama to impose punitive economic sanctions on Moscow.

    WASHINGTON: The US Congress on Tuesday demanded Russia immediately withdraw from Ukraine and urged US President Barack Obama to impose punitive economic sanctions on Moscow.

    The Senate expressed its support for Ukraine by passing strongly worded resolutions, using tough language against Russia and urging it be suspended from the Group of 8 world powers.

    The non-binding resolution, passed by unanimous consent, called for targeted economic sanctions to “compel President Vladimir Putin to remove his armed forces from Ukrainian territory and return that territory to full Ukrainian sovereign control.”

    The measure also called on world soccer’s governing body FIFA to reconsider its decision to hold the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

    The House of Representatives also passed a resolution to condemn what House Speaker John Boehner called: “Russia’s hostile acts of aggression.”

    “Vladimir Putin has proven himself a menace and a threat to stability in the region, and he must be held accountable,” Boehner said.

    The moves precede legislation to be brought before the powerful Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday, aimed at aiding Ukraine and punishing Russia.

    A sticking point is whether changes to International Monetary Fund rules on how much money nations contribute will be included in the measure.

  6. Ukraine won’t intervene in Crimea

    KIEV – Ukraine will not intervene militarily in the separatist peninsula of Crimea in order to avoid exposing its eastern border, Ukraine’s acting president told AFP on Tuesday in an exclusive interview.

    “We cannot launch a military operation in Crimea, as we would expose the eastern border (close to Russia) and Ukraine would not be protected,” Turchynov said as Crimea – a southeastern peninsula that has come under the de facto control of Russian forces – prepares to vote in a referendum Sunday on joining Russia.

  7. image of Pouria standing in front of those towers posted to his facebook page. Via GateWayPundit:

    “http://time.com/20592/mh370-nourmohammadi-iran-malaysia/”>TIME reported:

    The last status update Pouria Nourmohammadi posted on his Facebook page indicated he was “feeling excited.” The 19-year-old Iranian had good reason to be: he was embarking on the first leg of a flight that would ultimately take him to Germany where his mother was waiting to help him begin a new life.

    But his journey was tragically interrupted. His flight, Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370, disappeared en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing early Saturday morning with all 239 people on board. Nearly four days later, no trace has been found of the Boeing 777 in spite of a massive search operation conducted by at least nine countries.

    Nourmohammadi had earlier hinted he would be going on a long, life-changing trip. “Because of some problems I will deactivate my account. Friends, seriously, if I’ve done any of you a bad turn, forgive me because maybe…” he posted on his Facebook page on Feb. 24.

    Also consider the report which suggests these two Iranians not only boarded MH370 with stolen passports, their tickets were purchased through a third party, traveling only one way, and each travelled “light”:

    The two men traveled lightly, Mallaebeasier said. Pouria had a mountain climbing-type backpack and a laptop, while Reza carried a suitcase and a laptop, he said.”

  8. #3 ‘one law for thee’

    The brain is said by neurologists to contain “mirror neurones” so that watching someone play football simulates the same areas of the brain in the observer. To see someone in great distress is to feel their pain. To kill another person is devastating for it as if we have been killed ourselves. It really is ‘to love your neighbor as yourself.

    But what if he is a kufar? Or the person you casually sexed with? Then, you have to detach yourself, dissociate your mind, justify, rationalize so you do not see people as equals, but as beneath you, contemptible as animals. Then you will have one law for your bonded in oaths fellowship, and one law for the masses.

    Obama’s bisexuality means he has tasted death by submission and liked it. Just as a Muslim dies to self in adoration before Mohammad’s ogre creation. Life to them is to live the blameless, guiltless path. To feel pity is to bleed. To hate, is righteousness. To be corrected is to be enraged.

    Socialists and Muslims. We are dealing with ‘offence-primed’ psychopaths.

  9. #2 Speculation on what happened on the flight will continue until either the plane is found or there is a credible claim of a successful terror attack.

    Yucki actions like those Eeyore talked about are already taking place on a smaller scale..

  10. Like Tom Clancy writing about kamikaze attacks into high-rises. After 9/11 he was asked by more than one interviewer if he regretted having given the idea to terrorists!

  11. Yeah like that, but Clancy wasn’t the first to write about a terrror attack like that, it was used several times in very bad books, his book just happened to be a good one.
