“Your ad-Hominem attacks are a disgrace to this network” -Frank Gaffney. Links 1 on Dec 9 – 2015

In fact the sad thing is it was not. It was typical of that network. What needs to happen is that TV needs to find its roots in ethics and reason again and move away from falacy and promotion of a culturally Marxist narrative. Whole clip below and linked here.

1. Security Threat Shuts Down U.S. Consulate In Istanbul

The U.S. Consulate in Turkey’s largest city announced it would not be handing out visas or providing any other services on Wednesday because of a “possible security threat.”

The consulate will be operating with only a skeleton crew, State Department spokesman John Kirby said Tuesday. But it will be business as usual at the U.S. Embassy in Ankara, the consulate in Adana, and the consular agency in Izmir.

2. Reports: 2 Afghan Trainees Missing From Georgia Air Base

Two Afghan nationals being trained at an Air Force base in Georgia have been reported missing.

Citing a news release from Moody Air Force Base near Valdosta, news media outlets are reporting that the two men did not show up for work Monday.

A person who answered the telephone at the base Tuesday night said all media representatives were busy and unable to speak to a reporter.

AJC.com http://on-ajc.com/1OgWDuA quotes the release as saying that the two men had been assigned for training with the 81st Fighter Squadron since February. According to the newspaper, the squadron eventually will train a total of 30 Afghan pilots.

5. ‘Trump’s not wrong – we can’t wear uniform in our OWN cars’: Five police officers claim Donald Trump is RIGHT about parts of London being so ‘radicalised’ they are no-go areas 

Serving police officers today backed Donald Trump’s claim that some Muslim communities in the UK are no-go areas because of extremism.

Several Met officers have said ‘Islamification’ of the capital means they must be ‘extra vigilant’ and can’t wear uniforms for safety reasons – despite Scotland Yard claiming the tycoon ‘couldn’t be more wrong’.

Yesterday the US presidential contender caused worldwide consternation after a string of incendiary remarks about Muslims, including in Britain, and said: ‘We have places in London and other places that are so radicalised that police are afraid for their own lives.’

But one serving officer said today Trump ‘pointed out something plainly obvious, something which I think we aren’t as a nation willing to own up to’.

Another policeman said that he and other colleagues fear being terror targets and spoke of the ‘dire warning’ from bosses not to wear a uniform ‘even in my own car’.

It came as more than 200,000 people – seven people every second – signed a petition demanding Mr Trump is banned from Britain for being a ‘hate preacher’.

Damning: Scotland Yard has said that Donald Trump 'could not be more wrong' about areas of London being so 'radicalised that police are afraid for their own lives' - but two officers have said there is something in what he said (file picture - these officers are not the ones who spoke out today) 

6. ‘ISIS-supporting Ohio hospital worker who called for US soldiers to be beheaded in their homes’ is arrested

An Ohio man who prosecutors say was sympathetic to the Islamic State posted the names and addresses of 100 members of the military on social media, calling for them to be killed, according to a federal indictment issued on Tuesday.

A grand jury charged 25-year-old Terrence J. McNeil of Akron with three counts each of solicitation of a crime of violence and threatening military personnel.

Mike Tobin, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Cleveland, said prosecutors are not aware of any attacks on the service members named.

10. Fmr. FBI Counterterror Agent Just Exposed A Disturbing Truth About ‘Vast Majority’ Of US Mosques

John Guandolo, former FBI counter-terrorism special agent, author of Raising a Jihadi Generation, and site administrator of UnderstandingTheThreat, is making some shocking claims about who is actually advising the White House and senior leaders in the federal government on matters of national security.

Brietbart News Daily interviewed Guandolo on Friday. Guandolo reportedly told Breitbart that the “Islamic Society of North America (ISNA)—the largest Muslim Brotherhood organization here— is a Hamas funding entity.”

He said that the ISNA collaborates with the secretary of state and the National Security Administration, and briefs the FBI and CIA. ISNA’s former president, Mohamed Magid, works “very closely with the White House and sits on the Homeland Security Advisory Committee with a secret clearance.”

11. Greece: Police conduct forced deportation of ‘economic migrants’

Greek police forces started a process of evicting those it deems to be ‘economic migrants’ and not refugees, from the Greek border at Idomeni, Wednesday morning. The authorities state the actions were undertaken in order to enable the functionality of the railroad tracks connecting Greece to Macedonia, which were reportedly blocked for weeks by those seeking entry to Europe.

Geopolitical techtonic events are the new normal. There are a few things I need to understand better before I post. Something that happened in Homs. All the links are available in the Daily Links post for those that want to get there ahead of me. Too much to do, too little time. More as soon as able.

  1. 3: I hope the man doesn’t get in trouble for thinking for himself instead of letting the politicians and media tell him what he is suppose to think.
