The “New Media” and Counter-Terrorism Investigations Post Obama

Published by Papa Giorgio

HotAir notes that the media pushed their way into an active crime scene:

The “best-case” scenario is that the press is luridly publicizing sensitive information, including presumably innocent people’s personal data, for no better reason than that it’s lying around at a major crime scene. The worst-case scenario is that they’re handling actual evidence there. For instance, what if Farook’s wife was using his mother’s driver’s license as fake ID? The cops will need that later. This is what makes it hard to understand how the FBI could have cleared the scene. Wouldn’t they want all papers, identifying documents, credit card statements, etc, inside the apartment? They can’t possibly know all the information they might need for the investigation after 36 hours.

This all makes sense… to Obama. I mean, this was a work-place crime… nothing more. Who needs fingerprints of the hald dozen Muslim men we know were there a couple of weeks earlier.

Mark Levin Reminisces the GOP’s “Support” for Reagan

Published by Papa Giorgio

The following is from Caffeinated Thoughts:

…FAULT LINE 2: Former Republican Senator Chuck Percy of Illinois in 1975 to the New York Times: “A Reagan nomination and the crushing defeat likely to follow could signal the beginning of the end of our party as an effective force in American life.”

Translation: (Like Cruz) Reagan is stopping us from addressing the topics we say we totally want to address, but never did before he came on the scene. Because he interrupted us. Now I’ve gone and lost my train of thought.

FAULT LINE 3: Representative John Rhodes, Republican of Arizona, who became leader of the Republicans in the House, in 1975 said, “As soon as Reagan gets away from his clichés and his campaign slogans, he’s in trouble.”

Translation: He’s an amateur. He’s not a scholar even though he’s read more books than us, and he’s uneducated even though he’s studied more than us. He’s not qualified to bring up any case to the American people, because we haven’t been able to do it already. Reminds me of all the people accusing Ted Cruz of utter ignorance about the Supreme Court’s Heller decision on gun control. Frothy-mouthed opponents demand he read the Heller decision, totally ignorant of the fact that HE WAS THE ATTORNEY WHO ARGUED HELLER AND WON. Sorry for raising my voice, I just hate it when we don’t do our homework before attacking each other. That would have made an awesome political commercial on the idiocy of his opponents, but I’m sure the GOP decided to make a commercial about how well they will run liberal programs when they win.

FAULT LINE 4: Republican Vice President Nelson Rockefeller warned Republicans governors in 1975: “No major American party can long endure by directing its appeal to a narrow minority. It will not serve the nation to have our major parties polarized at ideological extremes.”

Translation: Reagan can’t win, because he’s going to run in a primary. Running against an incumbent is unpatriotic, and if there are differences with the incumbent, it is the challenger who is to blame for the differences. Our party can’t handle differences, so our country clearly cannot either.

FAULT LINE 5: Republican Representative Pete McCloskey of California in 1976: “A Reagan win would be a disaster for the GOP.”

FAULT LINE 6: Republican Representative James Cleveland of New Hampshire predicted another Goldwater debacle if Reagan is the GOP nominee.

Translation: Reagan is not a good Republican, and yet he runs under the Republican Party. I’m jealous of such audacity, so I declare him a future disaster. Because change is hard.

FAULT LINE 7: In 1976, Reagan was publicly told by two Republican governors to get out of the race against Ford: Virginia Governor Mills Godwin and North Carolina Governor James Holshouser. On the eve of the North Carolina primary, the Ford White House prepared a telegram signed by a DOZEN Republican governors, telling Reagan to get out of the race. The dastardly Reagan ended up winning North Carolina, the little rascal. Later, Ford lost to Carter, and then the establishment Republicans blamed Reagan.

Translation: Reagan, you are weak, so you should get out. Also Reagan, you are strong, so you should get out. Just get out. If you stay in, we will blame you for our loses. Remind anyone of the Tea Party? The Tea Party is both trodden underfoot and utterly defeated, but also the taskmaster and cutthroat ruler of the Republican Party, holding hostage the other Republicans. PICK ONE! Cruz, Reagan, the Tea Party… are they pathetic losers, or are they masterfully strong winners?…

Preaching God’s Word Well to the Cults (2 Timothy 2:15)

Published by Papa Giorgio

Witnesses from the Kingdom Hall are often zealous and sincere… but sincerity without truth is sincerely wrong. Watch carefully and see if they really believe the Bible or just the teachings of the Watchtower Society. Remember the Bible says: “A wise man will hear and will increase learning…” Proverbs 1:5

What a great evangelistic conversation. One thing I like is the thunder affect giving Scripture the eminence we sometimes neglect.

More Islamo-Fascist Work Place Violence

Published by Papa Giorgio

And this report talks about how political correctness kills… weeks earlier a person who works near the shooters home saw a bunch of Middle-Eastern men at Sayed’s home, via The Blaze:Political Correctness Kills

A man who reportedly worked near the home of one of the San Bernardino mass shooting suspects said he grew suspicious when he noticed half a dozen Middle Eastern men hanging around the area.

[….]

“We sat around lunch thinking, ‘What [were] they doing around the neighborhood?’ We’d see them leave where they’re raiding the apartment,” he said.

However, the man reportedly declined to report what he felt was suspicious behavior because he didn’t want to be accused of racial profiling.

Yes, the ideology of the left kills. So, this is a good reminder… you see half-a-dozen Jews, Hindus, Sikhs, or Christians congregating at a home… don’t call. You see that amount of Middle-Eastern men… call.

It is probably an innocent event… but it may help save lives. If people had shed the progressive leftist scales in the United Kingdom, untold children’s lives would be better.

Here is some audio from Ben Shapiro filling in for Dennis Prager speaking about the latest news from the terror attack:

“It appears that Farook was radicalized, which contributed to his motive, though other things — like workplace grievances — may have also played a role, other law enforcement sources said.”

If Syed Farook appeared and said, “I did this because of the Qur’an and Sunnah,” authorities would still be searching for a motive….

  • San Bernardino shooter Syed Rizwan Farook was in touch over the phone and via social media with more than one international terrorism subject who the FBI were already investigating, law enforcement officials said.

(Jihad Watch)

One of the suspects in Wednesday’s mass shooting in California was identified as a young father who worked for the county agency that had been holding a holiday party when the carnage unfolded.

Syed Farook, believed to be 30, was linked to the horrific slaughter that left 14 dead at the Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press.

Farook’s father was shocked to learn of his son’s possible involvement in the attack.

“I haven’t heard anything,” the elder Syed Farook told the Daily News. “He was very religious. He would go to work, come back, go to pray, come back. He’s Muslim.”…

See more at:

We know who the female was that joined Syed in his killing spree… and do you think she had a Scandinavian sounding name? Nope. Tashfeen Malik, his wife. Yep, she was most likely a “devout” Muslim as well. And this is the rub… you will have to second guess even those you do not see as fanatical, but only devout:

…Co-workers told The Times they were shocked when they heard Farook, who they described as “devout,” was linked to Wednesday morning’s massacre. Two health department workers who took cover in a bathroom when the shooting occurred told the newspaper Farook was quiet and polite and didn’t seem to have any grudges.

Other colleagues said Farook was a devout Muslim who spent most of his time in the field.

“He never struck me as a fanatic, he never struck me as suspicious,” Griselda Reisinger, who worked with Farook until May, told the Times. “I would say hi and bye, but we never engaged him in conversation. He didn’t say much at all.”

Reisinger added that Farook had attended the department’s holiday party last year, which was held in the same conference room where Wednesday’s shooting occurred. Baccari later said he had been sitting with Farook at the same table during the office party Wednesday morning, but his co-worker suddenly disappeared, leaving his coat on his chair…

That is because these people do not know the high percentage of those in the Islamic faith support violence in reaction to life’s problems. Gateway Pundit noted the radical nature of a large percentage of Muslims:

Pew Polling found that a large percentage of Muslim youths in the West support suicide bombing.

The higher levels of support for suicide bombing seen among young American Muslims resembles patterns found among Muslims in Europe, where Muslims also constitute a minority population. In Great Britain, France and Germany, Muslims under the age of 30 are consistently the least likely to say that suicide bombing is never justified.

In other words, the share who think suicide bombing against civilians can ever be justified, even if rarely, is higher among those younger than 30 compared with those who are older. About a quarter (26%) of younger U.S. Muslims say suicide bombing can at least rarely be justified, 17 percentage points higher than the proportion of Muslims ages 30 and older (9%) who share that view. The age gap is about as wide in Great Britain (18 percentage points) but somewhat narrower in Germany (12 points), France (11 points) and Spain (7 points).

Amy Schumer

Some “captioning” via VtheK:

1. According to people who think Obama is smart and Hillary is accomplished, this is a beautiful woman.
2. That Hijab rule is looking better all the time.
3. Within two weeks of the new “Got Milk” campaign debut, Wisconsin was bankrupt and osteoporosis was a national epidemic.

Other join the fray:

  • Queequeg said… Odd, I thought it was a Pirelli calendar, not a Michelin one.
  • GregMan said… “I sense a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of male libidos suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.”
  • Rodney Dill said… Jabba the Grut, for the new Star Wars movie.
  • Dr. Doom said… GreenPeace joined forces with PETA on its latest Save the Whales campaign… with predictable results.

And on VtheK’s Twitter I said:

  • My wife thinks I am handsome… I don’t need a photo of me naked to disprove her contention publicly! #Trainwreck

The New Face of European Commerce v. Immigration

Published by Papa Giorgio

These truckers are probably at their wits end with these people, as you can see!

What these Europeans do not understand is that this is a movement to take over Europe… that is why they leave their country and women and children. Likewise, many of these men have no options to get wives becuase four wives are allowed per man… so to have those many wives [as Muhammad allowed] you would [like Muhammad] have to raid lands and kill the men of other territories to get their wives. This is because the birth percentages of the genders are somewhat the same. Ahhh, no one ever thinks about these things. AGAIN, it is how Mecca was finally conquered, not to mention they are living up to Muhammad’s example… and, these men want what their prophet had… four wives ~ actually the prophet [DBUH-death be upon him] had well over sixteen wives. The rule for everyone else was four you see. Cult leaders have these separate rules for themselves… the definition of hypocrite.

The Hijrah, in Islamic lore, was the migration of Muhammad and his followers from Mecca to Medina, where the Muslims ultimately outnumbered the local population and took over the city. Ever since then, Muslim migration to non-Muslim lands for the purpose of turning them Muslim is part of Islamic doctrine.

In fact, in the Qu’ran, Sura 4, Verse 100 says…

  • “And whoever emigrates for the cause of Allah will find on the earth many locations and abundance. And whoever leaves his home as an emigrant to Allah and His Messenger and then death overtakes him, his reward has already become incumbent upon Allah. And Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful.”

Media Hypocrisy Easily Shown via Megyn Kelly

NATIONAL REVIEW’S article excerpted:

Let me get this straight. In the eyes of the Left…

  • …criticism of Planned Parenthood means something like the shooting in Colorado “was bound to happen”…
  • …but chants where people describe police as ‘pigs’ and call for them to be ‘fried like bacon’ doesn’t lead to attacks on police…
  • …when an event by Pamela Geller is targeted by an Islamist shooter, it is “not really about free speech; it was an exercise in bigotry and hatred” and the attempt to kill her means she has “achieved her provocative goal”…
  • …while at the same time, investigators contend we may never know what motivated a 24-year-old Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez to kill four Marines and a sailor in an attack on Chattanooga’s U.S. Naval and Marine Reserve Center last July…
  • …a shooting by a diagnosed schizophrenic, who believed that grammar was part of a vast, government-directed mind control effort, is characterized by the Southern Poverty law Center as having views that are the “hallmark of the far right and the militia movement”…
  • …while the shooter who opened fire in the lobby of the Family Research Council in downtown Washington in 2012, who planned to target the Traditional Values Coalition next, does not spur any need for a broader discussion or societal lessons about the demonization of political opponents…
  • …a California killer, who was treated by multiple therapists and already had police checking on him after posting disturbing YouTube videos, is a reflection of “sexist society”…
  • …but there’s little reason to ask whether the Oregon shooter’s decision to target Christians reflects a broader, societal hostility to Christians, or whether it reflects his personal allegiance to demons…
  • …When white supremacist Dylann Roof committed an act of mass murder in an African-American church, Salon declares “White America is complicit” and the Washington Post runs a column declaring, “99 percent of southern whites will never go into a church, sit down with people and then massacre them. But that 99 percent is responsible for the one who does”…
  • …but the Roanoke shooter’s endless sense of grievance and perceptions of racism and homophobia in all of his coworkers represents him and him alone…

Do I have all that right? And does that make sense to anyone?

Is Climate Change Our Biggest Problem? (Bjorn Lomborg)

Published by Papa Giorgio

Is man-made climate change our biggest problem? Are the wildfires, droughts and hurricanes we see on the news an omen of even worse things to come? The United Nations and many political leaders think so and want to spend trillions of tax dollars to reverse the warming trend. Are they right? Will the enormous cost justify the gain? Economist Bjorn Lomborg, director of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, explains the key issues and reaches some sobering conclusions.

Here is a longer talk about “Prioritizing the World: How to spend $75 billion to do the Most Good”

Dr. Bjorn Lomborg is an academic and the author of the best-selling “The Skeptical Environmentalist” and “Cool It”. He challenges mainstream concerns about the environment and points out that we need to focus attention on the smartest solutions first. He is an adjunct professor at the Copenhagen Business School, and director of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, which brings together many of the world’s top economists, including seven Nobel Laureates, to set priorities for the world.
