    —> THE DEATH OF THE LIBERAL WORLD ORDER <—

    The president of the Counsel on Foreign Relations, Richard Haas, wrote an essay titled, "Liberal World Order, R.I.P."

    Haass writes: “Liberalism is in retreat. Democracies are feeling the effects of growing populism. Parties of the political extremes have gained ground in Europe.

    • Actually it is classical liberalism that is raising and authoritarianism that is in decline.

  2. Not cool, UN, not cool!

    Israel has cancelled its plan to deport thousands of African migrants to their home countries and will instead transfer them to third-party nations in the West, according to Israeli officials.

    Under an agreement with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Israel will “facilitate transfer” of roughly 16,000 illegal African immigrants to Western countries, in return for a guarantee to “formalize the status” of those who remain, reports the Times of Israel. Canada is expected to be a primary recipient of the migrants.

    • 44 Dems, Including Wasserman Schultz, Exempted Pakistani IT Aides From Background Checks

      Every one of the 44 House Democrats who hired Pakistan-born IT aides who later allegedly made “unauthorized access” to congressional data appears to have chosen to exempt them from background checks, according to congressional documents.

      All of them appear to have waived background checks on Imran Awan and his family members, even though the family of server administrators could collectively read all the emails and files of 1 in 5 House Democrats, and despite background checks being recommended for such positions, according to an inspector general’s report. The House security policy requires offices to fill out a form attesting that they’ve initiated background checks, but it also includes a loophole allowing them to simply say that another member vouched for them.

  5. The Supreme court made a ruling earlier in the month that Lafe Solomon (an Obama appointee) illegally served as acting general counsel for the National Labor Relations Board for an entirety of three whole years. Back in 2011, Senate would not take up Solomon’s nomination. But, Obama used his standing to pretend he was above the law and left Solomon as “acting” general counsel. Former President Barack Obama is under the impression that the law does not apply to him or his cronies.

    Barack Obama didn’t care to respect American laws or our Constitution during the time he was commander in chief. He certainly doesn’t respect them now. While Obama was taking his time creating his “shadow government” in order to try to take down President Trump, the Supreme Court was doing some work of their own. They ruled that Barack Obama knowingly violated the Constitution.

    Actually, Obama violated the Constitution for three whole years. Chief Justice John Roberts stated that Obama did an “end-run around” the Constitution. While the mainstream Liberal media won’t dare release a story on the matter, because it would simply derail all of their ridiculous narratives. It’s important to get the truth out there, because you know the mainstream media will skew it in Obama’s favor.

  8. SYRIA – EASTERN GHOUTA – VIDEO: Syrian war reporters drive their vehicle through 20 km-long rebel tunnel in east Damascus – details on how it was built

    BEIRUT LEBANON (8:55 P.M.) – The Alikhbaria Syria news channel has released an exclusive video report (below) showing what appears to be the largest rebel tunnel ever discovered in the Syrian War.

    The tunnel, located in Damascus’ East Ghouta region, is twenty kilometers long. It connected rebel positions and underground bases throughout the once militant-controlled districts of Jobar, Ayn Tarma and Arbeen.

    As the video shows, the tunnel is wide enough to allow the Syrian war reporters drive through it in their van.

    One of the people present with the Alikhbaria Syria news team (front passenger seat) was captured by insurgents earlier in the war, only recently being released following the capitulation of rebel forces in East Ghouta. He claims that militants used civilian and Syrian Army hostages to dig the tunnel.

    The tunnel allowed rebels to relocate forces throughout vast areas of East Ghouta without being detected and attacked by Syrian and Russian warplanes.

  9. Why We Need John Bolton as NSA
    The readiness to use force to help our friends — and hurt our enemies.
    April 2, 2018
    Bruce Thornton

    Last week ex-CIA chief Michael Hayden signed a letter with a “bipartisan group of 115 national security leaders” that counsels the Trump administration and new National Security Advisor John Bolton not to jettison the nuclear deal with Iran. Hayden’s justification for this advice illustrates all the stale ideas and unexamined assumptions about foreign affairs that have brought us to this crisis in the first place––and why we need the return to realism we are likely to see with Bolton at the helm.

    Hayden starts by admitting that the deal has problems. Iran was on the economic ropes because of the sanctions, and so should have been the “suppliant,” not us. Hayden’s delicate indirection refers to Obama’s shameful eagerness for a deal, any deal in fact, to burnish his foreign policy “legacy” and please the “international community” with his commitment to “multilateralism” and “smart diplomacy” instead of military power. Hayden also notes Obama’s “bait-and-switch when selling the deal to Congress,” a reference to the post facto concessions to the regime, like “abandoned or altered positions on no notice inspections,” which of course make the whole idea of monitoring Iran’s activities a mere aspiration.

    Hayden also knows that Iran is a “bad actor.” But this vague cliché cannot accurately describe a repressive, brutal regime that has for nearly forty years soaked its hands in American blood, and now has replaced the U.S. as the dominant power in the Middle East. And it downplays Iran’s role in destabilizing the region as it creates a Shia crescent from Syria to Yemen, and builds a proxy attack-force on Israel’s borders in order to bring the mullahs closer to fulfilling their eschatological dream of “wiping Israel off the map.”

  10. Leftists to Tear Down Statue of U.S. President Murdered by Leftist
    April 2, 2018
    Daniel Greenfield

    Anyone who thought that the left would stop with Confederate statues really doesn’t understand it. The left is a force of pure destruction. The Confederate battles opened the door.

    Now the vandals are coming through. And they won’t stop until they destroy America. The Socialists weren’t satisfied with murdering President William McKinley. They have to tear down his statues too. Obama began the process by renaming Mt. McKinley. (Trump should follow up on his campaign promise to change it back.)

    The Arcata City Council on Wednesday will consider whether city residents should have the chance to vote on the fate of the statue of President William McKinley.

    At a heated Feb. 21 meeting that saw America’s 25th president denounced by critics as a racist imperialist, the council voted 4-1, with Councilman Michael Winkler dissenting, to begin the process of removing McKinley’s bronze likeness from Arcata Plaza, where it’s stood since 1906.

  13. Kim’s Diplomatic Card
    The trap Trump needs to avoid.
    April 2, 2018
    Joseph Klein

    “Little Rocket Man” Kim Jong-un appears to have learned well from his father Kim Jong-il in how to appear the reasonable negotiator while continuing to pursue an aggressive nuclear arms program. Also using a page out of the Iranian regime’s nuclear deal playbook, Kim Jong-un’s objective is to maneuver the United States, under pressure from the so-called international community, to make immediate concrete economic concessions in return for some limited steps to freeze or reduce the scope of North Korea’s program. To do this, Kim Jong-un, following a year of successive nuclear bomb and intercontinental ballistic missile tests, has reached out to South Korea, China and the Trump administration for direct diplomatic talks. All Kim Jong-un says he wants are guarantees of security for his country and normalization of relations. In return, he is ready to make what China’s state news media Xinhua described as “phased, synchronized” moves toward denuclearizing his country. This is essentially the same formula his father adopted back in 1994 in negotiating the “Agreed Framework,” and then again in 2005 and 2007. We all know how those attempts at diplomacy with North Korea turned out. They ended in failure, as North Korea pocketed the concessions it gained by making promises of denuclearization and each time cheated or walked away from its commitments.

  15. European Gun Control – London Murders Top New York
    April 2, 2018
    Daniel Greenfield

    If only we had gun control. Like those civilized Europeans.

    London overtook New York in murders for the first time in modern history in February as the capital endured a dramatic surge in knife crime.

    Fifteen people were murdered in the capital, against 14 in New York. Both cities have almost exactly the same population.

    London murders for March are also likely to exceed or equal New York’s. By late last night there had been 22 killings in the capital, according to the Metropolitan police, against 21 in the US city.

    Eight Londoners were murdered between March 14 and March 20 alone and the total number of London murders, even excluding victims of terrorism, has risen by 38% since 2014.

    It’s surprising, but there are other ways to murder people. Banning guns doesn’t stop murders. At best it means that the murderers have to switch from guns to knives.

  19. The Hungarian Election: The Hungarian Left is Giving Up
    April 2, 2018 / Worldview / By Matt Forney
    Hi! If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed and follow me on Gab and Instagram. Thanks for visiting!

    I haven’t filed an update about the Hungarian election in two weeks due to both my computer breaking—it was out of commission for a week—and because there hasn’t been much to say. The Hungarian left and the international fake news media have been throwing everything and the kitchen sink at Teflon Viktor Orbán, only for it to bounce off and hit them in the face. For example, the left have been reduced to whining about Deputy Prime Minister Zsolt Semjén’s hunting trips in Sweden.

    English-language left-wing propaganda rags like the Hungarian Fake Press and Hungarian Sputum have finally, slowly conceded reality: Fidesz is going to be reelected this Sunday. The opposition parties have not only failed to form a grand alliance to take on Orbán, they can’t even agree on how to strategically withdraw their constituency candidates in order to keep Fidesz from racking up wins through vote-splitting.

    • I love leg of lamb. As a child our Easter dinner was leg of lamb, peas with mint and new potatoes.
      Looking at the grocery flyers last week only one store had leg of lamb on sale. Unfortunately it was Australian lamb. To my knowledge, virtually all lamb in Australia is halal slaughtered.
      I bought a ham as I will not contribute, no matter how small, to inhumane slaughter or Muslim terrorism.
      I support the idea of labeling all food products either halal or non-halal. Those that wish to buy halal foods will be guided accordingly and those that wish not to buy halal will be given the information to do so. It’s a win win. Since I learned of Cadbury being in halal compliance I have never purchased another product of theirs.

  22. The Becerra-BLM Axis
    Persecuting police, ignoring illegal alien cop killers.
    April 2, 2018
    Lloyd Billingsley

    California attorney general Xavier Becerra, a former congressman once on Hillary Clinton’s short list as a running mate, will oversee the investigation into the police shooting of Stephon Clark in Sacramento on March 18. Anti-police mobs, some organized by Black Lives Matter, have since blocked access to Sacramento Kings games, halted traffic on Interstate 5, and shut down a Sacramento city council meeting.

    On Friday, Clark’s family released a private autopsy showing that six bullets had struck Clark in the back. Results of the full investigation had not been released but a mob at city hall chanted “Fuck Sac PD,” and “the whole damn system is guilty as hell!”

    Some protesters donned masks, chased innocent bystanders and as the Sacramento Bee reported, “tried to prevent media from photographing the conflict, at times grabbing cameras or holding up signs to block lenses.” The protests were “largely nonviolent, though passionate and confrontational” and more “social justice gatherings” had been planned.

    The nation is automatically in complete amazement whenever Judge Andrew Napolitano decides to present himself with a public announcement.

    Much consideration and many questions have come into account after his live interview with FOX news. Judge Scalia is no longer with us, however, Judge Napolitano and Judge Scalia were very close friends.

    Recently, Napolitano felt he has the responsibility to reveal important information about his friend on live television. Judge Napolitano stated clearly,

    “JUDGE SCALIA TOLD HIM THAT HE WAS UNDER SURVEILLANCE OF THE OBAMA’S ADMINISTRATION. SCALIA DIDN’T LIKE THAT AND PROBABLY OTHER MEMBERS FROM THE SUPREME COURT HAD BEEN UNDER SURVEILLANCE BY THE INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES UNDER OBAMA.”

    Daily Caller News Foundation reporter Luke Rosiak said Democrats exhibited terrible judgement in the wake of the House IT scandal Monday on Fox Business and questioned why they still haven’t taken action.

    The Awan brothers — who worked as IT aides for many Democratic members of Congress, including Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz — have been the focus of an investigation into security practices on Capitol Hill.

    The brothers were not given background checks before being given access to highly sensitive government information and no explanations have been given as to why.

    “The House policy actually says that background checks are required, but if you delve into the fine print there’s technically a loophole that these members may have been able to invoke that essentially allowed another member just to vouch for them,” Rosiak said on “Mornings With Maria.”

  25. 17-year-old Christian Breault and his classmates attended an assembly on the “National School Walkout for Gun Control and School Safety” at Middleburgh. (George Soros always comes up with catchy titles for his paid protests, doesn’t he?) After they were forced to sit through a vitriolic anti-NRA video, Christian told his classmates that he felt the video was unfair.

    A fully-indoctrinated SJW student heard the conversation and threatened Christian, and even informed a school employee that he was going to punch Christian if he didn’t stop speaking out in favor of the NRA. Later that day, the student made good on his threat. He punched Christian twice in the head as he was leaving class. According to Christian’s father, that is when his son clocked the anti-gun attacker and knocked him flat on the ground — one punch.

    For defending himself as he was being assaulted and battered, the school suspended Christian for one day (the attacker was suspended for three days). The bigger point, which Christian’s father voiced to the uncaring school superintendent, was that another student threatened his son with violence and even told a school employee he was going to do it, and school officials did nothing to protect him!

  26. 5 Teens Wounded, 2 Trampled in Mass Shooting at Easter Concert
    By ASSOCIATED PRESS 2:34 PM EDT
    (MOBILE, Ala.) — Police say five teenagers were shot and two others were trampled at what was advertised as a concert for high school students on Easter night in Mobile, Alabama.

    Police Chief Lawrence Battiste told a news conference Monday that all seven victims are teenagers between the ages of 15 and 18.

    Six people were treated and released, but one of the shooting victims remains hospitalized in critical condition.

  27. An armed suburban man with a concealed-carry license intervened in a 3-on-1 beating and robbery in River North yesterday evening, according to a witness and police.

    The victim was in the 700 block of North Clark around 8:30 p.m. when three offenders wearing white surgical masks attacked him and began taking his property, police said.

    A passing motorist who saw the robbery unfold pulled over, unholstered his concealed firearm and intervened in the attack. The three offenders fled westbound on Chicago Avenue as the concealed-carry holder protected the victim, according to a witness.

    The driver, who lives in Mt. Prospect, returned to his vehicle and drove away after stabilizing the situation, a witness reported.

    The victim lost his phone to the robbers who were described as two black men and one black woman wearing surgical masks. One of the offenders wore a red jacket and the others wore dark clothing.

    So far, such attacks have been classified as a dangerous bodily injury, which is a far lighter offense and subject to a less severe punishment.

    The union also called on the authorities to compile nationwide statistics on knife incidents.

  30. “Anti-Trump Reverend At TRUMP’S CHURCH Publicly Attacks Trump Supporter At Easter Service” by Luke Rohlfing – April 2, 2018

    President Donald Trump’s Easter Sunday church attendance with his wife and daughter Tiffany made world-wide news. But the one part of that church service the media won’t cover is an interaction between a Reverend at the church Trump attended and one of Trump’s supporters.

    Before the service began, Jennifer Eady was sitting near the President wearing an American flag pin, and a “Trump Rhine stone.” When the President noticed her, he gave her a thumbs up and said “I love it.”

    Just minuted after that statement, a video taken by Eady shows Reverend James Harlan storming off the alter and berating Eady, claiming that she can’t film in the church.

    Eady claims that the attack was based on her support for President Donald Trump, and as it turns out, Reverend James Harlan’s boss Bishop Peter Eaton is a well known anti-Trumper.

    A Facebook post uncovered by Eady shows Eaton and his wife attending the anti-Trump “March for Our Lives” in Washington, D.C.

    At least 30 people have been injured during fresh clashes between Kashmiri protesters and Indian forces in Srinagar on Monday, following the death of 20 people on Sunday.

    Anti-India protesters are seen hurling rocks at police forces in the India-administered Kashmir region of Srinagar.

    According to reports, Indian forces fired pellets and tear gas to disperse the protesters, injuring dozens of protesters that were rushed to the local hospital.

    Security restrictions have been deployed in the area of the clashes, after 20 people – 13 alleged militants, three Indian soldiers and four civilians- were killed on Sunday during deadly clashes that erupted after the Indian army led anti-military operations in south Kashmir.

  32. Yemen: Thousands rally after rape of Yemeni girl by Saudi-coalition soldier

    Thousands of women and children gathered in Sanaa on Monday, to show their anger against the Saudi-Arabian-led coalition, following the raping of a Yemeni girl by a soldier of the Saudi Arabian-led coalition.

    Organised by the local women’s authority, the protest took place in Bab-al-Yemen in the country’s capital.

    Several non-governmental organisations in Yemen confirmed on Sunday, the raping a Yemeni girl by a coalition’s mercenary soldier in the Yemeni Red Sea district of Khokah.

    The Saudi-led war in Yemen started in 2015 as an attempt to crush Houthi rebels in the region and reinstall former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi. The conflict has created a dire humanitarian situation in the country.

    The Saudi-led bombing campaign, now in its third year, continues in Yemen with US backing, with casualty figures exceeding 16,200 people since the beginning of the war in March 2015. A reported 40,000 have been injured and more than three million people have been displaced.

    According to a UNICEF report released earlier this year, over 5,000 children have been killed or injured in the conflict.

    “Turkey’s TAEK atomic energy authority on Monday granted Russian builder Rosatom a construction license to start work on the first unit of the Akkuyu nuclear power plant, the state-run Anadolu news agency said.

    The grant comes a day before a visit by Russian President Vladimir Putin to Ankara, where Putin and Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan will also attend a ceremony to officially launch Akkuyu’s first unit.

    “As a result of the construction license process, an important step in the project started nearly three years ago, being completed … it has been decided by TAEK to grant a construction license for the construction of the first unit of the Akkuyu Nuclear Plant,” Anadolu quoted a TAEK statement.

    The $20 billion, 4,800 megawatt (MW) plant, is part of Erdogan’s “2023 vision” marking 100 years since the founding of modern Turkey and is intended to reduce Turkey’s dependence on energy imports.

    However, since Russia was awarded the contract in 2010, the project has been beset by delays.

    Last month, sources familiar with the matter said Akkuyu was likely to miss its 2023 target start-up date, but Rosatom, which is looking for local partners to take a 49 percent stake in the project, said it is committed to the timetable.

    The Interfax news agency later cited the head of Rosatom saying that the sale of the 49 percent stake was likely to be postponed from this year until 2019.

    Turkish companies have been put off by the size of the financing required as well as by concerns they will not receive a sufficient share of the lucrative construction side of the deal, two industry sources have said.

    Putin will make a two-day visit to Turkey from Tuesday where he will meet Erdogan and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani for a summit on Syria.”

  34. Palestinians: A March to Destroy Israel

    by Bassam Tawil
    April 2, 2018 at 5:00 am

    https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/12113/palestinians-gaza-march

    On March 30, an attempt by tens of thousands of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip to infiltrate the border with Israel launched a six-week campaign of mass protests — called the “March of Return” — organized by Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other radical Palestinian groups.

    The groups encouraged Palestinians in the Gaza Strip to head to the areas adjacent to the border with Israel. The protesters were also encouraged to try to infiltrate the border, thus putting their lives at risk.

    Hamas and its allies told the protesters that the “March of Return” marked the beginning of the “liberation of all of Palestine, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River.” In other words, the Palestinians were told that infiltrating the border with Israel would be the first step toward destroying Israel.

    Hamas leaders Ismail Haniyeh and Yehya Sinwar, who joined the March 30 mass protests along the border with Israel, did not hide the real goal behind the “March of Return” — to destroy Israel and thwart US President Donald Trump’s yet-to-be-announced plan for peace in the Middle East.
