Wil Benghazi Lies Determine Election? Not If MSM Have Their Way!
Diana West:
Washington, DC — Two weeks ago, I reported here that the Obama administration had dug itself into a minefield of lies about the Benghazi terrorist attack that the president would have to cross to get to Election Day. Whether he will do so unscathed remains unclear, but if Barack Obama is re-elected president on November 6, it will be for one reason only. It will be because the US media threw themselves on every Benghazi bombshell that threatened the president, shutting down democracy in the process.
Not all of the media, of course. Fox News, WND.com, Daily Beast, Reuters, CNN, CBS and others have reported most of the key facts now available. These include, first, the revelation that intelligence immediately indicated the US consulate in Benghazi was destroyed in a planned terrorist attack, not as the result of a “spontaneous” protest triggered by a Youtube video. The latter scenario, however, is the demonstrable lie the Obama administration, including President Obama, repeatedly told for weeks. Later, the State Department established the fact that no “protest” at all occurred before the attack. The Obama administration explanation for these and other discrepancies? “Bad intelligence” or “fog of war.” The major media largely agree, no questions asked. Literally.
This past week, a new set of factors emerged darkly underscoring the appearance of a White House cover-up. These include the publication of the email bulletins that alerted the highest administration officials that the US consulate in Benghazi was under terrorist attack. These emails began arriving in Washington within the first hour of what would stretch into an eight-hour battle. We also learned that the Americans under rocket and mortar fire in Libya repeatedly called for military support; that military support was within two hours’ flying time; and that no help was ever deployed. Four Americans, including the US Ambassador, were killed in the attack that left many others wounded.
Quoting historical fact, now a firing offense in Canada

Politically correct – a mugging at Queen’s

Michael Mason’s 50-year teaching career ended on a sour note. Last fall, his history classes at Queen’s University were abruptly cancelled after he was accused of making racist and sexist comments in the classroom. He had used the terms “rag head,” “towel head,” “japs” and “little yellow sons of bitches.” A student complained that his “borderline racist comments” made her “very uncomfortable.” On top of that, one of his female teaching assistants complained because he’d told them they should become “mistresses.”
Dirty old creep? Not so fast. The subject of the course was imperialism and neo-colonialism at the time of the Second World War. Prof. Mason was using the offensive phrases to illustrate the attitudes of that era. They were direct quotes from contemporaneous documents – a context that was abundantly clear to nearly all of the 140 students who had flocked to his popular course.
As for “mistresses,” Prof. Mason had merely expressed the hope that his (mainly female) students would become masters and mistresses of the material by the end of the semester.
These nuances didn’t interest the administration, which quickly called him on the carpet. The department chair sent him a letter of reprimand, saying he had contravened the university’s equity policy. He was summoned to a meeting, where he was told he had failed to create a “safe space” for students. One of the administrators spoke of the need for “inclusivity” in the classroom. They told him that they had decided to open an investigation, and that he should stop teaching until it was completed.

A city hall request that the Israeli flag not be displayed at a street festival intended to promote diversity has Jewish community leaders wondering what “diversity” really means to some city leaders.
During planning meetings for September’s Smag Verden – Mangfoldighedsfest, a celebration of the foods and cultures of different countries, Jewish participants were warned that some would interpret the flying of the Israeli flag as a provocation.
“We were told that is was better if we did not fly our flag,” Malgorzata H Hansen, who represented local Jews at the meetings, told Berlingske newspaper.
Organizers said they feared clashes between Jewish, Muslim and leftist groups if the Israeli flag was displayed.

Usman Yasin, 30, pictured laughing as he attended an earlier court appearance, has been released from jail on unconditional bail while he awaits the verdict of his appeal
A driver who was jailed for beating up an elderly woman who told him to watch his language has been freed on bail after serving just five days.
Usman Yasin, 30, received a 16-week sentence after being found guilty of hitting 81-year-old Patricia Pearson after she covered his mouth to stop him swearing at her for driving too slowly.
The disabled pensioner suffered horrific injuries during the attack in June this year and told the police the the ordeal had left her feeling ‘vulnerable’.
But now she is outraged after her attacker, who has lodged an appeal against his conviction, was granted unconditional bail while he awaits the verdict.
Mrs Pearson said: ‘I’m really fuming about the whole thing – it beggars belief. It is a farce and the law in this country is nothing but an ass.’
Mrs Pearson, a former school cleaner from Birkenhead, said her attacker’s release on unconditional bail – which means there are no restrictions on his freedom – was ‘an absolute disgrace’.
Yasin was jailed on October 10 after Burton Magistrates’ Court heard he hit Mrs Pearson due to her alleged slow driving.
Tommy Robinson Imprisoned With Hostile Muslims
Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe in Canada and the US, rapists and sexual offenders go into their own wing for their own protection, do they not? Is it not the same in England?
From British Freedom:

We have just heard that Tommy Robinson has been incarcerated in London’s Wandsworth Prison, sharing a cell with Muslims on a wing full of Muslims screaming death threats at him.
This is how the authorities react to those who try to warn Britain of the greatest threat to national peace and security since the Second World War.
The British Government is hereby forewarned that should any harm come to Tommy Robinson in prison, they will be held to account.
The Government has a duty of care to all prisoners, not to go out of their way to place them in potential danger for vindictive or political reasons.
British Freedom are actively seeking the advice of lawyers on this matter. Meanwhile, we invite all friends and supporters of Tommy Robinson to write your messages of friendship and support below; we will do our best to convey them to him to strengthen him in this difficult time.

1. Police arrest Kev Carroll
2. EDL leader arrested on suspicion of entering America illegally
3. Political Policing Suppressing Democratic Protest
News update: Following Saturday’s events we learn directly from Kevin Carroll that he has been bailed until 30th November, which means that his election campaign for Bedfordshire Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) is unaffected. In contradiction to earlier reports, we can confirm that Kevin was not among EDL supporters stopped by police on the M1, but was arrested later whilst driving to his home. The police have no evidence against Kevin Carroll because he has committed no crime; their action appears to be a clumsy effort to discredit him in the run-up to the PCC election on November 15th. Rumours of the arrest of British Freedom leader Paul Weston are also completely false.

The hit and run driver in Cardiff.
It is interesting that a man can be charged with murder now, and likely 13 other counts of attempted manslaughter etc. not to mention the alleged beatings he gave people in between running them over in Cardiff using a steering-wheel-lock-bar, and still not be named or described or shown.
I get now, well sort of, how the law no longer names someone arrested like they always did till recently to protect the innocent. I think they always should have done that and not when the names of the suspects became under the protection of political correctness but nonetheless I get it. But now they can actually arraign someone with murder and still not release the names?
Of course, we in the counter-jihad are suspicious. Is this yet another example of government shielding Islamic and Muslim reputations from acts of jihad? Is it another religious Muslim run Amok in the name of Islam? No way to know. For all I know this was a classic white Welshman who had a fight with his wife and one too many drinks and overdue bills and lost it outright and went on a spree.
Perhaps the government is trying to cause the general public to be embarrassed on the Islamic issue by waiting till we are all sure he was one, then releasing the name of Taffy Leek-Jones to show us all what racists we are just because we extrapolated on the staggeringly obvious. So I shall not speculate. I will trust that some Welsh journalist will have the raw integrity to do their damn job and report on who this man was, and what he claims his motive was for this act of violence.
In the meantime, I suggest, for no particular reason, that people take a moment and read the material at the following link. Wikipedia, Al Qeada’s Inspire Magazine Fall issue 2010. I’m not saying that these 2 things are connected or anything. I just don’t feel like making two separate posts.
The Fall 2010 issue encouraged using one’s car to “mow down” people in crowded places (“The ultimate mowing machine”).

STRATFOR, not as neutral as they claim.
I have been a subscriber to STRATFOR for a number of years now, and they make quite a fuss about their non-partizan policy and how they are a geopolitical intelligence forecaster with no judgement on events or groups.
You can imagine my disapointment when I read the following SITREP on today’s stunningly peaceful demonstration in France, were 100 people asked for a national referendum on mosque construction and Islamic immigration. Perfectly reasonable requests given the actions of religious Muslims in France, and the effect immigration is having on French culture. In fact, one could argue that immigration as Europe is doing it might contravene the UN definition of genocide via population replacement. Yet STRATFOR elected to go father than the French media even who referred to the protestors as, “Far-Right” and added ‘extremist’ to the description even though they committed no violence, did not incite violence and gave zero indication of any desire for vioelnce but merely for long-overdue democratic process and an enforcement of the French laws of secularism, ‘Laicite’.
Then, just a couple of hours after I received this one, another SITREP came in describing an attack by Boko Haram today in Nigeria where they murdered 23 people at minimum. Check out the description below:
Get it? A hundred French citizens peacefully demand their democratic rights as specified under French law and disperse without any objection and are “far right extremists”.
But a blood thirsty Islamic supremacists group that has mass murdered hundreds if not thousands of non-combatants especially Christians worshipping peacefully in their churches, are “Islamist Militants”.
I must go over my old articles and see if they refer to the shootings at Fort Hood as “work place violence” because from where I sit, STRATFOR has eaten the Obama pudding.
We must be free to insult each other: Rowan Atkinson attacks new rules that outlaw ‘insulting words and behaviour’

Worried: Rowan Atkinson is demanding a change in the law to halt the ‘creeping culture of censoriousness’
Rowan Atkinson is demanding a change in the law to halt the ‘creeping culture of censoriousness’ which has seen the arrest of a Christian preacher, a critic of Scientology and even a student making a joke.
The Blackadder and Mr Bean star criticised the ‘new intolerance’ behind controversial legislation which outlaws ‘insulting words and behaviour’.
Launching a fight for part of the Public Order Act to be repealed, he said it was having a ‘chilling effect on free expression and free protest’.
He went on: ‘The clear problem of the outlawing of insult is that too many things can be interpreted as such. Criticism, ridicule, sarcasm, merely stating an alternative point of view to the orthodoxy, can be interpreted as insult.’
Campaigners say the Public Order Act is being abused by over-zealous police and prosecutors. Section 5 of the 1986 Act outlaws threatening, abusive and insulting words or behaviour, but what constitutes ‘insulting’ is unclear and has resulted in a string of controversial arrests.
A 16-year-old boy was arrested under the legislation for peacefully holding a placard reading ‘Scientology is a dangerous cult’, on the grounds that it might insult followers of the movement.
Gay rights campaigners from the group Outrage! were arrested under the Act when they protested against the Islamist fundamentalist group, Hizb ut-Tahrir, which was calling for the killing of gays, Jews and unchaste women.
Goodbye To The Army And Marines: Political Correctness Has Taken Over

As precursors to my analysis, take note of the following inconsistencies and contradictions. First, Dr. Steve Metz, Professor at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, in response to Sharia is coming, left this comment: “Should we worry about the creeping influence of the Boy Scout laws? More people follow that in the United States than sharia.” Note well. Steve is comparing Boy Scout law with Sharia law. This Boy Scout law – compared to this sharia law.
On the other hand, because of political correctness, in the Spring of this year, US Army Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Dooley was condemned by the Joints Chiefs of Staff (JCS) and relieved of teaching duties at Joint Forces Staff College for teaching a course judged to be offensive to Islam. The course he taught, Perspectives on Islam and Islamic Radicalism, was an elective course that Lt. Col. Dooley’s superiors judged as presenting Islam in a negative way. His superiors were persuaded to come to this conclusion after receiving an October 2011 letter in which 57 Muslim organizations claimed to be offended by the course. The fact that Lt. Col. Dooley is a highly decorated combat veteran with nearly 20 years of service under his belt apparently held little or no sway with the JCS. As a matter of fact, JCS Chairman General Martin Dempsey “personally attacked” Lt. Col. Dooley on C-Span on May 10, 2012, during a Pentagon News Conference.
Remember the bible burning imam in Egypt? Get ready for a show trial.
Remember this guy?
Well get ready for a pointless show trial and feeble attempt to make it look like anyone in the Muslim world cares about anything other than their barbarian selves. In fact, given that this was written in Sept. 26 I would bet that this was about the extent of it already.
From Digital Journal:
Islamic television station owner to face trial for Bible burning
Cairo– Radical Egyptian Islamist Ahmed Mohammed Abdullah, owner of an Islamic television station which uses veiled women as presenters, is to face trial for burning a Bible during protests outside the U.S. embassy in Cairo over the film “Innocence of Muslims.”
Digital Journalreported that Coptic Christians in Egypt filed a complaint against Abdullah, who is also known as Abu Islam in his role as a Muslim cleric. Amidst the devastating Islamic protests that have shaken the world, Abdullah’s bout of Bible burning drew little international attention.
US News reported Abdullah was filmed tearing the Bible before burning it as he promised “Next time I will urinate on it.”
[…]
Speaking of the charges Abdullah said“I had always wished to go to court to explain to the world that there is no such thing as the Bible. Every church in the West has its own holy book.”
The Egyptian law that allows those who insult religion to be prosecuted has primarily been used to prosecute those who insult Islam.
