UNRWA - Its Link to Terror and HAMAS (back)
December 10, 2009
by Yoav Sorek
The Israeli Initiative
As we mentioned last week, UNRWA claims to be a neutral organization, but has proven time and again to be a puppet of the Palestinian National movement and of terror. In this chapter, we will specify how UNRWA is linked to these dangerous groups.
UNRWA As a Support for the Palestinian National Movement
Even if UNRWA was not directly connected to terrorist groups, its existence would be enough to support Palestinian Nationalism. Since UNRWA does not rehabilitate refugees, it perpetuates the refugee situation, by providing many refugees with relatively comfortable conditions: housing in the camps, education, medical care and other welfare services.
The refugees are an essential part of the Palestinian National narrative; Palestinian leaders have insisted on the ‘right of return’ since the movement’s inception. This card has been played to block Israeli attempts to bring peace time and again. As long as UNRWA is around to maintain the refugee problem, there cannot be a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the Palestinians can continue in their war against ‘the Zionist entity.’
UNRWA admits, and is even proud, that it identifies politically with the Palestinian National Movement. In 2004, former commissioner-general Peter Hansen said that, while UNRWA is supposed to be ‘above the fray’ and not political, he found that in ‘good conscience [he] cannot turn a blind eye’ to his perceived infringement of the refugees’ human rights by Israel. According to Hansen, it comes down to ‘human rights’ as opposed to ‘simple assistance.’
The current commissioner-general, Karen Abu-Zayd, has the same approach. She has spoken out in an unbalanced matter, which has generated negative PR, causing grave damage to Israel’s image. A recent example of UNRWA’s politicization is a one-man play written by and starring UNRWA spokesman Chris Gunness, in which he accuses the IDF of using illegal white phosphorus to bomb a warehouse in Gaza. This behavior moves UNRWA out of the realm of humanitarian aid and squarely in the political arena.
The UNRWA-terror link is not a new problem. Over 25 years ago, Lebanese ambassador to the UN Edward Ghorra complained that UNRWA camps in Lebanon had been taken over by terrorists. Soon after, UNRWA released a detailed report which described how its educational institute at Siblian, near Beirut, had become a military training base for PLO fighters.
In recent years, similar connections have been found in Judea, Samaria and Gaza. IDF incursions into camps as a part of Operation Defensive Shield in 2002, as a response to the second Intifada, revealed that UNRWA camps were filled with explosive labs, arms factories and suicide bombing cells.
One camp, Jenin, received more attention than others, when the IDF was met with strong resistance from terrorists located there in April 2002. A report to Marwan Barghouti, the head of the Tanzim, the military wing of Fatah, described the UNRWA camp as ‘characterized by an exceptional presence of fighters who take the initiative [to perform] nationalist activitiesThey are ready for self-sacrifice by any means. It is not surprising that Jenin [is nicknamed] the suiciders’ capital [A’simat Al-Istashidin, in Arabic]’
UNRWA administrators claim to be unaware of terrorist activities in the camps. Karen Abu-Zayd, for example, declared: ‘We just don’t see anything like this.’ It is unfeasible that camps could become ‘suiciders’ capitals’ without the knowledge of UNRWA personnel. These denials imply, at best, turning a blind eye, and at worst, implicit consent.
Terrorist Domination of UNRWA Labor Unions
It seems unlikely that UNRWA’s administration would not know about terrorist activities in their camps, when Hamas is the leading party in refugee-camp elections. The various UNRWA labor unions (teachers, civil service and general UNRWA workers) hold elections every three years to elect 27 representatives. The PLO, Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine all run for seats; all of these parties, except for the PLO, are on the European Union’s and the United States’ list of terrorist groups. Hamas has dominated UNRWA’s unions in the Gaza Strip since 1990, often winning all 11 seats in the UNRWA teachers’ union, giving them complete control of education. Results for the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas’s parent organization, have been similar in Jordan and Lebanon.
Senior UNRWA officials have openly supported Palestinians’ armed campaign against the State of Israel. In 2008, Amir Al-Misehal, the head of the UNRWA civil service sector stated ‘what was taken by force will only be restored by force and not by peace or resolutions.’ Karen Abu-Zayd attended and spoke at the same event. The UNRWA workers’ union in Jordan announced their solidarity with the Palestinian people, and decided that every worker would contribute one day’s salary to the families of suicide bombers. The funds were transferred through UNRWA’s Relief and Social Services department.
When UNRWA’s administration started monitoring workers, the unions issued a statement opposing these activities. Union heads refused to report on UNRWA teachers’ terrorist activities, and wrote letters calling on John Ging, then-director of UNRWA’s operations, to reinstate teachers who had been fired on suspicion of links to terror. In addition, in a 2005 event honoring 100 teachers from Khan Yunis (an UNRWA camp in Gaza) for academic excellence, an award was given to Dr. Yunes Al-Astal, who also happens to be a high-ranking Hamas official that openly preaches in favor of terrorist attacks against Israel. At the event, Khaled Madi, a teacher in UNRWA schools said ‘those worthy of being honored are the teachers who sacrificed their lives for the sake of Allah and the homeland,’ and proceeded to list ‘shaheeds’ (martyrs) who taught in UNRWA schools.
This is only a fraction of the examples of cooperation between UNRWA and terrorists. There are long lists of teachers and other workers for UNRWA that are active members of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, Fatah, Al-Qassam Brigades, Al-Aqsa Brigades, and other known terrorist groups.

Appeasement Policy towards Syria Not Working (back)
December 26, 2009
LONDON — The shifting sands in Syria’s geopolitical neighborhood has strengthened its ties to Iran, a relationship that is unlikely to be affected by Western incentives.
A report by the International Crisis Group asserted that Syria would not sever its strategic alliance with Iran. ICG, regarded as close to the European foreign policy establishment, said the regime of President Bashar Assad would try to balance relations with Iran and Turkey.
‘Teheran remains a valued and indispensable partner, especially in a context of regional uncertainty,’ the report, titled ‘Reshuffling the Cards: Syria’s Evolving Strategy,’ said. ‘The long relationship provides military assets and security cooperation, as well as diplomatic leverage in dealing with Western and Arab countries.’
The report said Syria’s relationship with Iran has enabled Damascus to resist neighboring Iraq and pressure by other Sunni regimes. ICG said Teheran has also benefited the Assad regime, beset by economic woes and regional tension.
‘As long as Syria’s environment remains unsettled, in short, it will maintain strong ties to Iran; at the same time, it will seek to complement that relationship with others — Turkey, France, and now Saudi Arabia — to broaden its strategic portfolio and to signal a possibly different future,’ the report said.
ICG said little was known of the decision-making within the Assad regime.
The report cited Assad’s roots in the Alawite minority, hated by the Sunni majority and fearful of being seen as capitulating to either Israel or the West.
‘From Syria’s vantage point, there is good reason to cling to the status quo,’ the report said. ‘For almost four decades, it has served Damascus well. Despite a turbulent and often hostile neighbourhood, the regime has proved resilient. It has used ties to various groups and states to amass political and material assets, acquiring a regional role disproportionate to its actual size or resources. One does not readily forsake such allies or walk away from such a track record.’
In contrast, Assad regards Turkey as a facilitator of Syria’s economy. The report said Assad sees Turkey as a means for increased tourism, investment and regional cooperation dominated by Syria.

‘Damascus’s relationships to Ankara and Teheran differ in ways that are fundamental and that offer instructive insights on both,’ the report said. ‘Iran supplies military hardware to Syria, which in turn serves as a corridor for Hizbullah-bound weapons. Other alleged areas of collaboration include Iranian support for Syria’s internal security apparatus and the construction of a nuclear facility currently under investigation by the International Atomic Energy Agency.’
The report said Iran has become a key weapons supplier to Syria in wake of the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1992. Still, Teheran has not become Syria’s sponsor, and Iranian missiles have not overcome Israel’s strategic superiority.
‘For Damascus, Teheran remains an indispensable partner in a context of ongoing regional instability and strategic uncertainty,’ the report said. ‘The relationship provides much-needed military hardware; diplomatic leverage in dealing with Western and Arab countries. The partnership with Ankara serves separate purposes.’
Meanwhile, a report by the American Enterprise Institute said the Obama administration has failed to nudge Syria away from Iran’s orbit and toward that of so-called moderate Arab states. Authored by resident scholar and former Pentagon official Michael Rubin, the report said Damascus continues to serve as Iran’s facilitator throughout the Levant.
‘There is no evidence, however, that the State Department’s engagement policy has worked,’ the report, titled ‘The Enduring Iran-Syria-Hizbullah Axis.’ said. ‘Nor does it appear that Teheran and Damascus have loosened their relations.’
The report said Syria continues to proliferate weapons, particularly in allowing Iranian arms to reach Hizbullah in Lebanon. Rubin cited U.S. and Israeli interdictions of Iranian weapons shipments to Syria in 2009.
‘The Obama administration would like to move Syria into the camp of more moderate Arab states, but there is scant evidence that Syria is willing to give up its support for terrorist organizations,’ the report said. ‘Like Iran, it remains a destabilizing and dangerous force in the region.’
‘Given both the circumstances and the stakes, it is ironic that U.S. officials continue to accept the fiction of Syrian sincerity,’ the report said. ‘As difficult as stopping terrorist supplies may be, the likelihood that proxy groups will voluntarily forfeit their capability is low, and the cost of allowing terrorists to use such arms is high.’
The report, released as the White House resumed its dialogue with Damascus, said Iran and Syria continue to employ Hizbullah and other proxies against Israel and other rivals in the Middle East. Syria was also said to have been helping Hizbullah prepare for a new war with the Jewish state.
‘Iran may be Hizbullah’s chief patron, but Syria is the lynchpin that makes Iranian support for foreign fighters possible,’ the report said. ‘While Israel may be the immediate target of the Iran-Syria nexus, the partnership threatens broader U.S. interests.’
The report said additional Iranian weapons to Syria might move through Turkey. In 2009, Syria and Turkey increased border cooperation as well as embarked on their first military exercises.
‘The Turkish route into Syria may become more important as Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan tightens relations with both Teheran and Damascus,’ the report said.

TRYING TO SHOW OFF, FREEZE SHOWS HER IGNORANCE OF FACTS & LAW
Editor's note: Philip J. Berg, former deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania and an activist attorney who brought a lawsuit challenging the eligibility of Barack Obama to become president of the United States, has written the following reply to Jamie Freeze's Dec. 22 RenewAmerica article "Facts are stubborn things: Obama is a natural-born citizen."
Jamie Freeze, a law student, has arrogantly called any of us who question Soetoro/Obama's citizenship status and constitutional eligibility to serve as U.S. President — a constitutional right of ours, of course — incompetent idiots.
Ms. Freeze, however, may want to continue her education. Part of being a lawyer, a very important part, is being able to comprehend what you read and to cite the correct law to collaborate it, something Ms. Freeze has clearly failed to do.
Jamie Freeze received battlefield experience in the war of ideology while attending the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (aka UNC-Gomorrah).
While earning a bachelor's degree in political science and history, she served as Vice President of the College Republicans and was the lone conservative opinion columnist for The Carolinian, UNCG's student newspaper.
After surviving college without becoming a liberal, she graduated in 2009 and is currently working toward a law degree at Regent University. You can contact Jamie at:
j.l.freeze@juno.com
In her schoolgirlish, wide-eyed fashion she also wrote....
"I don't understand how a Christian can be a Republican"
Phil Berg says:
I will respond below to Ms. Freeze's allegations. My responses are in Bold Italic. I also want to make very clear to all readers that none of the eligibility cases have been heard, litigated, or dismissed based on the law pertaining to any of the issues raised. Instead, the eligibility cases have been dismissed on the basis of "STANDING" only.
Alan note: as can be seen in an article below this one, tenacious Attorney Orly Taitz has filed for a move of venue for this very reason.
This type of thing by Ms. Freeze is what gives folks the WRONG information and confuses them. It is a deception by Ms. Freeze (as a law student, I hope her professors teach her how to properly, honestly, and with integrity investigate, research the laws, properly cite the laws, and argue issues before her).
Otherwise, she will be unable to do her clients — when that time comes, assuming she passes the bar — justice.

Facts are stubborn things: Obama is a natural-born citizen
By Jamie Freeze
I never will forget meeting former North Carolina State Senator Hugh Webster my senior year of high school. He came to my school and had lunch with the seniors. As he sat down beside me, I asked him to tell me what he most loved and hated about being in Raleigh. I don't remember what he most loved, but I'll never forget what he most hated. In the words of Mr. Webster, "I don't deal well with incompetent people."
Ms. Freeze, unfortunately, is showing her "INCOMPETENCE," as Ms. Freeze would call it, but I feel "IGNORANCE" is the more appropriate word, as outlined below.
At that point, I knew Mr. Webster and I were kindred spirits. I too don't deal well with incompetent people. As a matter of fact, I go out of my way to avoid them, but when dealing with them is inevitable, I can't help but point out their incompetencies. As a law student, I am being trained to be meticulous, well-reasoned, and intelligent.
After my final exam grades come back, we'll see how well I'm doing. But that aside, I feel that I have been too longsuffering in letting the Birther Movement receive simply a few caustic remarks and jabs from me. It's time for me to call a spade a spade.
Here goes: If you believe that President Obama is NOT a natural-born citizen, then you are an incompetent idiot who is probably watching Glenn Beck while wearing a tin-foil hat. You probably think Obama's a Muslim too.
Alan Note: absolutely yes to both!
Our lawsuits have nothing to do with Soetoro/Obama's religion, they never have. Ms. Freeze seems to have lost a very important part of her education. We as people are entitled to redress, and we as people are entitled to ask questions, especially of our elected officials. Incompetent idiot?
It appears that Ms. Freeze's law school has taught her that when you cannot counter something, call the opposing party names. That is not what I was taught in school. I do not see one shred of evidence that supports Ms. Freeze's position. Ms. Freeze obviously forgot about Barry Soetoro's name:
Did she locate where he legally changed his name to Barack H. Obama?
It is fraud to run for and serve as President under an "alias" name.
What about Soetoro/Obama's Indonesian citizenship? We have the school record, which Soetoro/Obama has admitted too.
If you are still reading (and not firing off angry emails), then allow me to offer you factual proof that Obama is a natural-born citizen who satisfies the constitutional requirements for Commander-in-Chief.
My argument is two-fold:
1. Obama was born in Hawaii (a U.S. state for my incompetent readers).
2. Obama satisfies the requirements found in the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, which defines natural-born citizens.
Where is the factual proof? Ms. Freeze apparently forgot to attach it.
What does Ms. Freeze have to back up the assertion that Soetoro/Obama was born in Hawaii?
We have been unable to obtain verification of that — no long form birth certificate, only an image that has been deemed a forgery. Despite this, what about his Indonesian citizenship? Had Ms. Freeze read our briefs, and retained the information, she would have seen that all we do is talk about the Nationality Act of 1940, revised in 1952.
1. Obama was born in Hawaii. Hawaii joined the Union in 1959. Barack Obama was born in 1961. Do the math. It works. Ok, so perhaps that argument is a bit over-simplified, but that is because I find the birth certificate question so ridiculous.
The President released his birth certificate (which was verified by the Hawaii Health Department) yet conspiracy theorists refuse to see logic. "Big bad Obama must be hiding something. That certificate isn't the long form. What's he hiding?" What the naysayers fail to realize is that in 1961 the standard Hawaiian birth certificate was...wait for it...exactly the same length as Obama's!
The Hawaiian Health Department has said this, but as conspiracy theorists point out, they must be covering for Obama. Despite the facts, folks say that even if he was born in Hawaii, he is not a natural born citizen because his father was Kenyan. However, even if Obama was born on the moon, he would still be a natural born citizen under the Immigration and Nationality Act.
First, the "long version" birth certificate we are asking for has nothing do to with the size of the document itself, instead it has to do with the information on the document.
We have never claimed Hawaii was not a state of the Union, so this has nothing to do with the questions we are seeking answers too. Soetoro/Obama released two (2) forged images of a Certification of Live Birth, claiming it to be his birth certificate.
The Hawaii Health Department has NEVER verified the images placed on the internet.
Law 101: No agency or person can look at an online image and state the document came from their agency or location, unless the person making such statement was the one who personally printed the document in question (Soetoro/Obama's Certification of Live Birth in this case) and handed it to Soetoro/Obama and can prove it is in fact the same document.
In Soetoro/Obama's case, his campaign office stated they mailed the application for his Certification of Live Birth to Hawaii and received this supposed document back from Hawaii. However, on the date that Soetoro/Obama would have signed it, Soetoro/Obama was traveling campaigning.
We are not disputing the length of Soetoro/Obama's Certification of Live Birth. We have copies of others' actual Certificate of Live births from the same time period. These are two (2) completely different documents.
Soetoro/Obama has never released a hard copy of any type of Certification of Live Birth or Certificate of Live Birth to anyone other than Factcheck.org, which is part of Annenberg and, yes, who Soetoro/Obama has close ties with.
I am wondering what Ms. Freeze is basing her unsubstantiated statements on. Maybe she will enlighten us.
We are not questioning the British father, as we are well aware of the fact that if Soetoro/Obama was born on U.S. soil, which we do not believe, he would in fact be a U.S. "natural born" citizen.
However, in fairness to Ms. Freeze, others have questioned the British citizenship of the father and claimed that even if Soetoro/Obama was born on U.S. soil, he would not be a "natural born" U.S. citizen due to his father's foreign citizenship status.
I'm going to ask again, what about Soetoro/Obama's legal name and his Indonesian citizenship status?
Ms. Freeze fails to address these very important issues. We have been unable to locate any legal documentation legally changing Soetoro's name back to Barack H. Obama; where Soetoro/Obama relinquished his Indonesian citizenship; and/or where Soetoro/Obama reclaimed any U.S. citizenship status he may have once held. Again, hopefully Ms. Freeze will enlighten us.
2. Obama is a natural born citizen. In Scales v. INS, 232 F.3d 1159 (2000), we have a clear definition of what natural born citizenship is. Scales' father was an American serviceman stationed in the Philippines where he met Scales' mother. They married despite the fact that Scales' mother was pregnant with him at the time. In all probability, the court said, Scales was a product of his mother's previous relationship.
However, he was born after Mr. Scales married his mother, and he was treated as Scales' son. Later, Scales was facing deportation because of an aggravated felony involving drugs. He challenged his deportation saying he was a natural born citizen. The court determined that natural born citizenship depends on the statute in effect at the time of the child's birth.
Since Scales was born in 1977, he was a natural born citizen because a "person shall be a national and citizen of the United States at birth who is born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who, prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than ten years, at least five of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years."
Id. at 1169; see 8 U.S.C. §1401(a)(7) (1976). Therefore, Scales was a natural born citizen despite the following: having been born in a foreign country, having been born to a non-citizen, having his American father later deny paternity (and prove non-paternity), and having claimed to be a citizen of the Philippines. Sounds like it is difficult to get rid of natural born citizenship. Let's examine Barack Obama's citizenship.
I would first like to note that Scales v. INS, 232 F.3d 1159 (2000) is not exactly on point, as neither of Soetoro/Obama's parents were in the U.S. military; however, it does outline some of the issues we present.
Some more appropriate cases are United States of America v. Cervantes-Nava, 281 F.3d 501 (2002), Drozd v. I.N.S., 155 F.3d 81, 85-88 (2d Cir.1998), Solis-Espinoza v. Gonzales, 401 F.3d 1090 (9th Cir. 2005). And, if Ms. Freeze would have read and retained what is in our briefs, she would have seen the laws we used.
We believe Soetoro/Obama was born in Kenya, contrary to Ms. Freeze's beliefs, and that Soetoro/Obama's mother was not old enough to confer U.S. "natural born" citizenship status to Soetoro/Obama.
Moreover, neither of Soetoro/Obama's parents were in the U.S. military at the time of Soetoro/Obama's birth, therefore her whole argument above, which was meant to mislead people and which is very ignorant for a law student, does not pertain.
Alan note: trying to show off her bias and to present "brilliant legal skills" (in her own mind) Ms. Freeze ends up, as the expression goes, chewing shoe leather of the foot she pushed into her own mouth
Ms. Freeze also forgets to mention that the Nationality Act was revised in 1986 with a proviso regarding active military.
The only part of the code that was retroactive was the proviso regarding military status, nothing else.
But again, neither of Seotoro/Obama's parents were in the U.S. military.
Moreover, contrary to Scales, Soetoro/Obama's father admitted paternity, and the parents were married in Hawaii prior to Soetoro/Obama's birth.
Ms. Freeze has done nothing more than attempt to misapply the laws.
And once again, Ms. Freeze also fails to address the legal name of Soetoro/Obama or Soetoro/Obama's Indonesian citizenship.
Obama's citizenship will be determined under the 1952 version of the Immigration and Nationality Act since he was born in 1961 and the Act wasn't updated again until 1966. According to § 301(a)(5) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (66 Stat. 235), "a person born in an outlying possession of the United States of parents one of whom is a citizen of the United States who has been physically present in the United States or one of its outlying possessions for a continuous period of one year at any time prior to the birth of such person [is a natural born citizen]."
According to § 305 of the same statute, any person born in Hawaii on or after April 30, 1900 was to be considered a natural born citizen. Obama's mother was a citizen of the United States, and his father was a citizen of Kenya. They were married six months before Obama was born. There is no doubt that Obama's mother resided in the United States or its possessions for at least one year prior to Obama's birth.
Therefore, Obama can't be anything other than a natural born citizen. Combine this detail with his birth in an American State, you have a certified natural born citizen.
Ms. Freeze's 1966 law fails and she completely contradicts herself.
The law that is applied is the law in effect at the time of the birth — in Soetoro/Obama's case, the Nationality Act of 1940, revised 1952. See Marquez-Marquez a/k/a Moreno v. Gonzales, 455 F. 3d 548 (5th Cir. 2006), Runnett v. Shultz, 901 F.2d 782, 783 (9th Cir.1990).
Law in 1966 does not apply, unless Ms. Freeze can show me where it states it is retroactive, which she CANNOT.
We are not disputing that Hawaii was a state, and we are not disputing that if in fact Soetoro/Obama was born in Hawaii, he would be a U.S. "natural born" citizen.
(Alan note: Other attorneys dispute this understanding of the law as the sole factor for natural born citizenship and introduce the nationality of the parents at the time of birth as a decisive factor)
Further, Kenya is not an outlying possession of the U.S.
The law used by Ms. Freeze once again does not pertain to the issues outlined in our cases;
does not apply to Soetoro/Obama's birth in Kenya;
fails to address Soetoro/Obama's legal name;
and fails to address Soetoro/Obama's Indonesian citizenship.
Moreover, even if the 1966 version applied, which is does NOT, Soetoro/Obama's mother was not present residing in the U.S. for a continuous year prior to Soetoro/Obama's birth. We believe Soetoro/Obama's mother was residing in Kenya and in fact gave birth to Soetoro/Obama in Kenya.
Important issues left out by Ms. Freeze in attempt to confuse the reader is:
the fact Soetoro/Obama became Barry Soetoro with an Indonesian Citizenship.
No records have been located legally changing Barry Soetoro's name back to Barack H. Obama.
No records have been located showing Soetoro/Obama relinquished his Indonesian citizenship, which was a requirement of Indonesia and outlined in their laws (Indonesia did not allow dual citizenship status) and reclaiming any U.S. citizenship status he may have once held.
Thus, Soetoro/Obama is still Barry Soetoro an Indonesian Citizen.
One last question I have for Ms. Freeze: If in fact Soetoro/Obama was a U.S. "natural born" citizen and eligible to serve as our United States President, why in the world would he spend in excess of a million dollars litigating these cases instead of just proving his citizenship status?
I'm curious to see how Ms. Freeze would respond. We know the answer, because Soetoro/Obama can't.

LETTER TO MOSLEH ZAMANI, A YOUTH VERY RECENTLY EXECUTED IN IRAN
As a young teenager, Mosleh Zamani was arrested for having sex with his girlfriend and despite her desperate declarations she loved him and permitted him to do this, he was condemned to death for illegal sex under Islamic "sharia" (religious) law. Sharia law permits pedophilia (marriage of 9-year old girls) but not consensual sex between young adults, who are not married.
In Islamic Iran and other Moslem countries you can receive 80 severe lashes just for holding the arm of a girl, who is not your immediate relative like a sister, to help her across the diabolical traffic in many Middle Eastern cities. And frequently happens - with no good deed going unpunished.
In an open letter posted by dissenting students, they say this:
Dear Mosleh,
When you get to the "other side" (up there), for my sake and on my behalf give Allah a slap on the ear and tell him that from now on if he wants to create a religion, spend a bit more time so that the end result of your religion does not get dragged into such filth.
How is it that when your prophet sleeps (has sex) with an 8-year old everyone claps and whistles applause for him and the seven heavens part into rays of light and the angels race to participate in this ceremony but when it comes to me, I get a hangman's noose (around my neck)?
What kind of a god are you who discriminates among your creations?.....(snip).... and takes away from me the only thing this provincial youth had - my smile (and my life).
How come you parted the seas for Moses but for our miserable populace you just stand by and watch?
If this is a description of god then what is a description for the devil!
صلح جان وقتی رسیدی به آن دنیا یک لطفی در حق من بکن و از طرف من یک سیلی به گوش خدا بزن. به او بگو، از این به بعد اگر خواستی دین صادر کنی کمی بیشتر وقت بگزار تا آخر و عاقبت دینت این جور به کثافت کشیده نشود. به او بگو چطور است که وقتی پیغمبرت با دختر 8 ساله می خوابد همه برایش کف و سوت می زنند، چیز هفت آسمان از نور جماعش پاره می شود و فرشتگان برای حضور در آن مراسم با هم کورس می گزارند ولی به من که می رسد پای طناب دار به میان می آید؟ اصلا تو چه جور خدایی هستی که بین مخلوقاتت فرق می گزاری؟ یکی را پیغمبر می کنی و جواز سپوختن هفت عالم را به او می دهی، یکی را شهرستانی بد بخت که همه چیزی که از دنیا دارد یک لبخند است؟ همان لبخندی که هیچ بی پدر مادر حرامزاده ای نتوانست از صورت مجید پاک کند...
چطور است برای موسی دریا جر می دهی ولی پای ملت بد بخت ما که می رسد فقط تماشا می کنی؟
اگر تعریف خدا بودن این است تعریف شیطان بودن چیست؟

صلح جان وقتی رسیدی به آن دنیا یک لطفی در حق من بکن و از طرف من یک سیلی به گوش خدا بزن. به او بگو، از این به بعد اگر خواستی دین صادر کنی کمی بیشتر وقت بگزار تا آخر و عاقبت دینت این جور به کثافت کشیده نشود. به او بگو چطور است که وقتی پیغمبرت با دختر 8 ساله می خوابد همه برایش کف و سوت می زنند، چیز هفت آسمان از نور جماعش پاره می شود و فرشتگان برای حضور در آن مراسم با هم کورس می گزارند ولی به من که می رسد پای طناب دار به میان می آید؟ اصلا تو چه جور خدایی هستی که بین مخلوقاتت فرق می گزاری؟ یکی را پیغمبر می کنی و جواز سپوختن هفت عالم را به او می دهی، یکی را شهرستانی بد بخت که همه چیزی که از دنیا دارد یک لبخند است؟ همان لبخندی که هیچ بی پدر مادر حرامزاده ای نتوانست از صورت مجید پاک کند...
چطور است برای موسی دریا جر می دهی ولی پای ملت بد بخت ما که می رسد فقط تماشا می کنی؟
اگر تعریف خدا بودن این است تعریف شیطان بودن چیست؟

Golnaz Esfandiari
Iranian oppositionists have launched a campaign in support of student Majid Tavakoli, who was arrested on Students Day on December 7 after giving a passionate speech during an antigovernment protest at Tehran’s Amir Kabir University.

The semi-official Fars news agency posted pictures of Tavakoli dressed as a woman http://www.farsnews.com/newstext.php?nn=8809171089 after he reportedly tried to escape by disguising himself. Fars paired a picture of Tavakoli with one of Abol Hassan Bani Sadr, Iran’s first president after the 1979 revolution, who reportedly escaped in 1981 disguised as a woman. http://%20http//www.farsnews.com/newstext.php?nn=8809171089
In solidarity with Tavakoli, some Iranian men are taking pictures of themselves while wearing the Islamic hijab, which is compulsory for women in Iran, and posting the pictures on Facebook. (Check out the photos here. http://kouhestan.persianblog.ir/post/1774/

UPDATES ON BARNETT v. OBAMA IN JUDGE CARTER'S COURT & in depth background
Updates in the BARNETT v OBAMA case in Judge Carter's court:
Request for investigation of misconduct in legal proceedings, submission of perjured affidavits, submission of a letter to court by an attorney with improper purpose of covering up criminal activity and obstruction of justice, withholding evidence by attorneys, and US attorneys acting under conflict of interest
From 11.11.09. to 11.22.09, I had the honor to be a delegate at the Continental Congress 2009.
One of the guest speakers for the Continental Congress was a former Immigration officer and currently a private investigator in CO, Mr. John Samson. I have stated to Mr. Samson that I need to tie some loose ends and I was wondering if as a former immigration officer, Mr. Samson would be privy to the information, that other investigators couldn’t obtain.
In my presence Mr. Samson used his password and logged into the Database “Intelligator’, and he printed out a document attached as an exhibit. It shows that Mr. Obama’s immigration records show one more birthdate: 08.01.61 and in the area of Ethnic origin it stated Equatorial Guinea.
The rest of the information was the usual, showing Michelle Obama as the spouse and the rest of the information that we are used to see.
This document provides significance in a number of areas:
A. It shows that with the minimal inquiry assistant US attorneys representing Mr. Obama in this case knew or should have known, that not only there are 39 different social security numbers that he used according to the databases, none of which were issued in Hawaii, not only there are statements of forgery of his selective service certificate and certification of live birth and his refusal to unseal the (alleged) original birth certificate and original birthing file from the Kapiolani hospital, there are additional doubts to his citizenship, due to the presence of different date of birth and different origin.
This constitutes sufficient reason to doubt Mr. Obama’s citizenship status, where the US attorney’s office and department of justice representing United states of America had an obligation to withdraw from representation of Mr. Obama in this case and the fact that it was not done, represents a clear violation of the professional ethics by the US attorneys representing Mr. Obama in this case.
B. This piece of information provided another piece to the puzzle, as numerous articles have reported that some 500 Columbia university students from the same graduation year were questioned and didn’t remember Mr. Obama as a student at Columbia, however at the same time there was an article published in Seattle, Washington, regarding one, Roman Obama, an exchange student from Equatorial Guinea (same origin listed in Mr. Obama’s immigration records) studying in the university of Patrice Lumumba in Moscow.
(This university was known as a basis of heavy Communist indoctrination and rumored to be the hunting ground of communist recruiting by the KGB).
Alan Note: many of the senior clerics in Islamic Iran went to Lumumba University)
This university is very similar to the university of Karl Marx, attended by Mr. Obama’s cousin, current prime minister of Kenya Raela Odinga.
C. It provided yet another connection between Mr. Obama and the law clerk of this court Mr. Velamoor, as similarly there are conflicting accounts of Mr. Velamoor’s legal education in Martindale and WestLaw directories: one pointing to Columbia university, while the other to the Comenis law school in Bratislava, Slovakia.
It appears that both might have been part of the same program with the Columbia university.
Additionally there is a geographical connection as both Mr. Obama and Mr. Velamoor came from the same tiny community of Mercer Island WA. While Mr. Obama in his memoirs writes that his mother was married to Mr. Obama Sr. and lived in Hawaii in and around his birth, the registrar records show that she dropped out of the university of Hawaii around December 1960 and reappeared some nine months later enrolled in the university of Washington from August 1961, shortly after Mr. Obama’s birth.
This coupled with the fact that Mr. Velamoor is still listed as an employee of Perkins Coie, the law firm, representing Mr. Obama in eligibility litigation, shows that there had been some ethics violation and Mr. Velamoor had to disclose all of the connections and conflict of interest and had to be recused from assisting your owner.

BARNETT v OBAMA - Exhibit Barack Obama Background Report
Had Americans been able to stop obsessing over the color of Barack Obama's skin and instead paid more attention to his cultural identity, maybe he would not be in the White House today. The key to understanding him lies with his identification with his father, and his adoption of a cultural and political mindset rooted in postcolonial Africa.
Like many educated intellectuals in postcolonial Africa, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. was enraged at the transformation of his native land by its colonial conqueror. But instead of embracing the traditional values of his own tribal cultural past, he embraced an imported Western ideology, Marxism.
I call such frustrated and angry modern Africans who embrace various foreign "isms", instead of looking homeward for repair of societies that are broken, African Colonials. They are Africans who serve foreign ideas.

IRANIAN AMERICAN COMMENT ON NIAC TO CONGRESSMAN JON KYL
To: info@kyl.senate.gov
Honorable Jon Kyl,
On behalf of Iranian-Americans living throughout the United States , I want to thank you for standing up with pro-democracy movement exposing the Islamic republic and its lobby groups such as NIAC.
As Iranians living in the USA , we are fully aware of Trita Parsi lobby efforts for the Islamic republic. There are over a million Iranians living the United States and about 3 million around the world, I can assure you that NIAC does not and will never represent views and interests of Iranians living in the United States. We believe that NIAC is hired to sugarcoat the brutality of the regime and buy it enough time to develop their nuclear bomb. NIAC does not care for Iran nor Iranians.
As a 501c3 (private non-profit) NIAC has never disclosed a complete listing of its members to us Iranians, we believe NIAC’s membership including its own employees in NIAC and various NIAC subsidiaries funded by Soros, big oil, and more importantly by Islamic republic number around 2500-3000, or (less than half a percent or .003%), hardly a significant number to claim as a legitimate organization representing our interests and views.
NIAC has never advocated for human rights, has advocated for cutting off funding for democracy programs and has always been against sanctions. We, the oppositions groups strongly favor all three and ask for smart sanctions against the Islamic republic.
NIAC, recently has shifted gears, and now advocates for human rights, but during its 12 year existence, particularly during the worst days of demonstrations immediately following June 12 uprising, NIAC has never objected to any human rights violations (rape, hangings, stoning, torture) by the barbaric mullahs. On the contrary, NIAC recently and secretly lobbied the US congress to cut off funding for democracy programs.
Trita Parsi is not even a US citizen to adequately understand our issues and concerns and speak on our behalf.
NIAC never appears on opposition rallies or grants interviews to Iranian opposition groups, while claiming it represents us here in the United States.
NIAC has lied on several occasions to Americans and Iranian community. Denise Rossâ's case is a good example. While NIAC attempted to undermine his appointment, it publicly endorsed him, a proven fact.
We are very much in support of an independent group of experts to investigate and examine NIAC's political and financial activities. We thank you and many other enlightened representatives who see Islamic republic and NIAC for what they are, and have had the courage to speak up against them. Iranians American are eternally grateful to your efforts.
Sincerely,
Dr. Arash Irandoost

MORE FICTION FROM FELONIOUSLY MISLEADING OBA-HUSSEIN
Chicago politics, where voting is such a revered civic duty that people do it even after they're dead, cold, stiff, stuffed, boxed and buried beneath the permafrost for years, has now come to D.C. with the Obama administration.
This afternoon comes the most encouraging economic news, courtesy of our keen-eyed buddy Rick Klein over at ABC, that the Obama administration's $787-billion economic stimulus has, for example, thankfully created 30 new jobs in a little-known rural corner of Arizona at a cost to American taxpayers of only $761,420.
That works out to only $25,380.67 spent to create each individual job.
Seems like a lot per slot, but those 30 folks must be happy to be employed again and paying taxes.
This will be a real feather in the cap of Vice President Joe Biden, who's been left behind and assigned by the ever-campaigning president to monitor the stimulus plan, its spending and effectiveness moving into the crucial midterm elections of 2010. Might the Democrats snatch that House seat?
So the people of that 15th Congressional District in staunchly Republican Arizona should be pretty happy about this.
Trouble is, there is no 15th Congressional District in Arizona. None. Nada. Zip. Zero. Doesn't exist. Not in Arizona. Not even on paper at the Democratic National Committee. There are only eight. Period.
But the administration's much-vaunted recovery.gov website reported these jobs as being created there.
Could well be a computer glitch. Lord knows humans would never make such a dumb, misleading mistake, even in politics.
But then the trouble is that just months after grandly unveiling the recovery.gov website to showcase its economic prowess and tech-savvy, the Obama administration just spent 18 million additional taxpayer dollars to redesign the still new website.
And that site proudly also reported nonexistent new stimulus spending not just in Arizona but other states across the country.
So that looks to have worked pretty well, at least if you're counting computer designer jobs created.
Anyway, how do you think the 15th will vote next year?

OBA-HUSSEIN SURRENDERING TO TALIBAN?
White House Considering Negotiated Settlement With Taliban;
'Minimum Security' in Afghanistan
November 1, 2009
By Kristinn
The Obama administration is considering an almost complete surrender in Afghanistan, if the report this weekend by the BBC's Katty Kay is accurate.
Speaking as a panelist on the Chris Matthews Show, a weekend public affairs broadcast, Kay reported on the internal debate at the White House, "There are real questions being asked, I think, about whether even with a big injection of troops this is a real country, a real war that you can win.
"And there's a new phrase which is floating around the White House which is 'minimum security'. That we're not actually aiming for a country which is stable that we are in control of, but we are aiming for a minimum amount of security and perhaps even a negotiated settlement with the Taliban."
This would tie in with reports that Obama has concluded the U.S. cannot beat the Taliban and that he has requested new studies this week, one of each province to determine which ones may be ceded to the Taliban and another for troop levels other than those requested by Gen. McChrystal over two months ago.
Kay's remarks start at the 19:10 minute in the backward clock on the video.
She describes three different views on the situation in Afghanistan that have been presented to Obama: The military needs a large injection of troops to perform the current strategy; even with more troops Afghanistan will never be winnable; and "'we have no choice but to win this war' and that is what President Obama said back in March."
Obama has delayed making his decision such that it most likely will not be announced until the end of November, three months into the twelve month window left to win the war Gen. McChrystal stated in August.
Troop casualties in Afghanistan have skyrocketed in the past three months with over 1000 being wounded, and a reported 58 service members killed this past month making it the deadlist month of the eight-year long war.
On Friday, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs bragged Obama has spent almost twenty hours (WOW!) in meetings on Afghanistan since August.
Less hours than on a golf course!!!

TIN FOIL HAT MATERIAL OR SMOKE FROM A HIDDEN FIRE?
Once past the astonishment of this "prediction" or report (?), some of the content has tinges of interesting fact. Such as the origins and affiliation of the Secretary of Commerce. This, rather than the conspiratorial content, encouraged posting this.
Does this theory of transfer/seizure of power (attributed to the far right) actually indicate total power being granted to the Chinese Secretary of Commerce to transfer technology to China without consulting the Obama House?
For instance the mention of sending of troops abroad to protect Russian citizens points to sending forces into Islamic Iran, where some 50,000 Russian consultants populate almost very government office and NGO's (non-government organizations and has been along standing consideration when analyzing Russian presence inside Islamic Iran.
PRESENTED HERE AS A VERY UNUSUAL VIEWPOINT often published by or refering to Pravda articles. The link below has many other seemingly off the wall analyses that are hard to swallow let alone digest, but..... often interesting in the extent of imagination required to configure these into articles.
The acrid "smoke" which might make your eyes tear emanates from some invisible fires. Either pure fantasy or misunderstanding of actual facts in the writer's mind and very creatively offered.
Search for the nuggets rather than the broader picture painted.
Have fun.

Putin Given Shocking Report Saying Obama “Ousted” In Right-Wing US Coup
By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers
Shocking reports circulating in the Kremlin today are stating that Prime Minister Putin’s refusal to agree to new talks with the United States on the START 1 Nuclear Arms Control Treaty, Russian National Security Council Head Nikolai Patrushev’s warning that the Motherlands “military must prepare for a large-scale conflict” and the State Duma’s unanimous vote to allow Russian troops to go “abroad to prevent aggression by other states and to protect Russian citizens on foreign soil”, are all due to a GRU report stating that the American President, Barack Obama, has been made to “surrender his power” to the Right-Wing fascist forces who now, for all intent and purposes, are steering the US towards Total Global War.
According to these reports, in the ‘fractious’ White House meeting held between Obama and his top US Military Commanders in late September (and as we had previously reported on in our October 2nd report “Obama In Secret Russia Visit Warns Putin, “I May Not Make It”) the American President was forced to sign away a strategic portion of his power, and as we can read as posted by the United States Federal Register:
NOTICE: ADMINISTRATIVE ORDERS
DOCID: fr02oc09-83
[[Page 50913]]
Presidential Determination No. 2009-31 of September 29, 2009
Presidential Determination On the Delegation of Certifications Under Section 1512 of Public Law 105-261 Memorandum for the Secretary of Commerce
By virtue of the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 301 of Title 3, United States Code, I hereby delegate to you the functions of the President under section 1512 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1999 (NDAA). In the performance of your responsibility under this memorandum, you shall consult, as appropriate, the heads of other executive departments and agencies. You are authorized and directed to publish this determination in the Federal Register.
(Presidential Sig.)
THE WHITE HOUSE,
Washington, September 29, 2009
[FR Doc. E9-23917
Filed 10-1-09; 8:45 am]
Billing code 3510-BP-P
Important to note about Obama’s signing away his power is that it is authorized under US Code Title 3 Section 301 which states:
The President of the United States is authorized to designate and empower the head of any department or agency in the executive branch, or any official thereof who is required to be appointed by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to perform without approval, ratification, or other action by the President
(1) any function which is vested in the President by law, or
(2) any function which such officer is required or authorized by law to perform only with or subject to the approval, ratification, or other action of the President: Provided, That nothing contained herein shall relieve the President of his responsibility in office for the acts of any such head or other official designated by him to perform such functions. Such designation and authorization shall be in writing, shall be published in the Federal Register, shall be subject to such terms, conditions, and limitations as the President may deem advisable, and shall be revocable at any time by the President in whole or in part.
To the specific power Obama was forced to relinquish to the right-wing fascist coup plotters we can further read from Section 1512 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1999, and which says:
SEC. 1512. CERTIFICATION OF EXPORTS OF MISSILE EQUIPMENT OR TECHNOLOGY TO CHINA.
The President shall certify to the Congress at least 15 days in advance of any export to the People's Republic of China of missile equipment or technology (as defined in section 74 of the Arms Export Control Act (22 U.S.C. 2797c)) that--
(1) such export is not detrimental to the United States space launch industry; and
(2) the missile equipment or technology, including any indirect technical benefit that could be derived from such export, will not measurably improve the missile or space launch capabilities of the People's Republic of China.
To the greatest alarm caused in Russia by Obama’s being forced to give up this power is the man to whom he has given it to, and who, according to FSB files, is one of Communist China’s most deeply embedded spies in the United States and is the Americans current Secretary of Commerce, the first Chinese-American ever to hold a US governors office, former top China lobbyist, and longtime Clinton family “conduit” to Communist China, Gary (Lok Gaa-Fai) Locke (photo 2nd left with Chinese Communist Leader President Hu Jintao)
Not being told to the American people about Secretary Locke is his longstanding ties with the Chinese Communists funneling money to the US Democratic Party under the regime of former President Clinton and his wife, now US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton orchestrated by master China spy and former US deputy assistant secretary for International economic affairs under Clinton John Huang through the Lippo Bank in California and the Worthen Bank in Arkansas.
As Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has now declared that improving the United States ties with China is now her “personal mission”, these reports continue, Obama’s signing over of his power to Americas most strategic military secrets to Communist China through Secretary Locke “proves beyond all doubt” that the US has acquiesced to the Chinese who are expected in the next moves of the Great Game to strike the Motherland in a grab to gain for themselves the vast mineral, timber and fishery wealth of Siberia, the last such resources remaining in the World today.

Does this theory of transfer/seizure of power (attributed to the far right) actually indicate total power being granted to the Chinese Secretary of Commerce to transfer technology to China without consulting the Obama House?
For instance the mention of sending of troops abroad to protect Russian citizens points to sending forces into Islamic Iran, where some 50,000 Russian consultants populate almost very government office and NGO's (non-government organizations and has been along standing consideration when analyzing Russian presence inside Islamic Iran.

Putin Given Shocking Report Saying Obama “Ousted” In Right-Wing US Coup
By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers
Shocking reports circulating in the Kremlin today are stating that Prime Minister Putin’s refusal to agree to new talks with the United States on the START 1 Nuclear Arms Control Treaty, Russian National Security Council Head Nikolai Patrushev’s warning that the Motherlands “military must prepare for a large-scale conflict” and the State Duma’s unanimous vote to allow Russian troops to go “abroad to prevent aggression by other states and to protect Russian citizens on foreign soil”, are all due to a GRU report stating that the American President, Barack Obama, has been made to “surrender his power” to the Right-Wing fascist forces who now, for all intent and purposes, are steering the US towards Total Global War.
According to these reports, in the ‘fractious’ White House meeting held between Obama and his top US Military Commanders in late September (and as we had previously reported on in our October 2nd report “Obama In Secret Russia Visit Warns Putin, “I May Not Make It”) the American President was forced to sign away a strategic portion of his power, and as we can read as posted by the United States Federal Register:
NOTICE: ADMINISTRATIVE ORDERS
DOCID: fr02oc09-83
[[Page 50913]]
Presidential Determination No. 2009-31 of September 29, 2009
Presidential Determination On the Delegation of Certifications Under Section 1512 of Public Law 105-261 Memorandum for the Secretary of Commerce
By virtue of the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 301 of Title 3, United States Code, I hereby delegate to you the functions of the President under section 1512 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1999 (NDAA). In the performance of your responsibility under this memorandum, you shall consult, as appropriate, the heads of other executive departments and agencies. You are authorized and directed to publish this determination in the Federal Register.
(Presidential Sig.)
THE WHITE HOUSE,
Washington, September 29, 2009
[FR Doc. E9-23917
Filed 10-1-09; 8:45 am]
Billing code 3510-BP-P
Important to note about Obama’s signing away his power is that it is authorized under US Code Title 3 Section 301 which states:
The President of the United States is authorized to designate and empower the head of any department or agency in the executive branch, or any official thereof who is required to be appointed by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to perform without approval, ratification, or other action by the President
(1) any function which is vested in the President by law, or
(2) any function which such officer is required or authorized by law to perform only with or subject to the approval, ratification, or other action of the President: Provided, That nothing contained herein shall relieve the President of his responsibility in office for the acts of any such head or other official designated by him to perform such functions. Such designation and authorization shall be in writing, shall be published in the Federal Register, shall be subject to such terms, conditions, and limitations as the President may deem advisable, and shall be revocable at any time by the President in whole or in part.
To the specific power Obama was forced to relinquish to the right-wing fascist coup plotters we can further read from Section 1512 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1999, and which says:
SEC. 1512. CERTIFICATION OF EXPORTS OF MISSILE EQUIPMENT OR TECHNOLOGY TO CHINA.
The President shall certify to the Congress at least 15 days in advance of any export to the People's Republic of China of missile equipment or technology (as defined in section 74 of the Arms Export Control Act (22 U.S.C. 2797c)) that--
(1) such export is not detrimental to the United States space launch industry; and
(2) the missile equipment or technology, including any indirect technical benefit that could be derived from such export, will not measurably improve the missile or space launch capabilities of the People's Republic of China.
To the greatest alarm caused in Russia by Obama’s being forced to give up this power is the man to whom he has given it to, and who, according to FSB files, is one of Communist China’s most deeply embedded spies in the United States and is the Americans current Secretary of Commerce, the first Chinese-American ever to hold a US governors office, former top China lobbyist, and longtime Clinton family “conduit” to Communist China, Gary (Lok Gaa-Fai) Locke (photo 2nd left with Chinese Communist Leader President Hu Jintao)
Not being told to the American people about Secretary Locke is his longstanding ties with the Chinese Communists funneling money to the US Democratic Party under the regime of former President Clinton and his wife, now US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton orchestrated by master China spy and former US deputy assistant secretary for International economic affairs under Clinton John Huang through the Lippo Bank in California and the Worthen Bank in Arkansas.
As Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has now declared that improving the United States ties with China is now her “personal mission”, these reports continue, Obama’s signing over of his power to Americas most strategic military secrets to Communist China through Secretary Locke “proves beyond all doubt” that the US has acquiesced to the Chinese who are expected in the next moves of the Great Game to strike the Motherland in a grab to gain for themselves the vast mineral, timber and fishery wealth of Siberia, the last such resources remaining in the World today.
[Note: Siberia makes up about 77% of Russia's territory (13.1 million square kilometres), but only 25% of Russia's population and holds some of the World's largest deposits of nickel, gold, lead, coal, molybdenum, gypsum, diamonds, silver and zinc, as well as extensive unexploited resources of oil and natural gas and whose Sea of Okhotsk is one of the two or three richest fisheries on the Planet.]

OBA-HUSSEIN TELLS CONGRESS HE DOES NOT NEED THEM - CAN RULE BY DECREE
Alan note: FALSE EMERGENCY DECLARED TO TEST RUN OBA-HUSSEIN POWER GRAB & SOCIAL CONTROL?
1,000 SWINE 'FLU DEATHS DECLARED AN EMERGENCY!
AVERAGE OF 30,000 'FLU DEATHS A YEAR NO WORRIES! NOT TO BE COMPARED WHEN OBA-HUSSEIN WANTS TO CREATE A CRISIS TO DIVERT US FROM HIS FRAUDULENT HEALTH CARE PLANS.
DESPITE ADVANCE INDICATORS, CRITICAL SHORTAGE OF VACCINE ANOTHER INDICATOR OF HOW BADLY A GOVERNMENT RUN HEALTHCARE WILL IMPACT OUR COUNTRY.
WE APPARENTLY ONLY HAVE 25% OF OUR NEEDS! ONE MANUFACTURER WILL NOT HAVE SUPPLIES READY TILL 2010.
More information is available from the NYT on those "extraordinary powers" being spread around by Obama. First, the actual Proclamation has not been released on the WH website. In the "Source doc" post earlier today, we learned the following:
Page 15: When declaring a national emergency, the President must indicate, according to Title III, the powers and authorities being activated to respond to the exigency at hand. Certain presidential accountability and reporting requirements regarding national emergency declarations were specified in Title IV, and the repeal and continuation of various statutory provisions delegating emergency powers was accomplished in Title V.
It sure would be nice if the Administration would act with more transparency so we could see what powers Obama has doled out to unelected officials.
We can get some clues from the NYT piece:
The declaration that Obama signed late Friday means Health and Human Services chief Kathleen Sebelius to bypass federal rules when opening alternative care sites, such as offsite hospital centers at schools or community centers, if needed.
"Alternative care sites" could include - prove me wrong - modern-day leper colonies.
Hospitals could modify patient rules -- for example, requiring them to give less information during a hectic time -- to quicken access to treatment, with government approval.
This is silly. When I went to the ER a couple of years ago, all they wanted was my name so they could pull up my medical records. When I offered my insurance card, I was told they could not take it until after they were assured that I was stable. "Less information" means that they won't pull my medical records before treating me?
The declaration, which the White House announced Saturday, allows HHS in some cases to let hospitals relocate emergency rooms offsite to reduce flu-related burdens and to protect noninfected patients.
Op cit., "leper colony."
And now for the chilling conclusion:
It was the second of two steps needed to give Sebelius extraordinary powers during a crisis.
Now she has all the authority she needs? Why is that not comforting?
Let's add another layer (no, I do not trust this putz). The President is required to transmit immediately the declaration to the Federal Register ("Such proclamation shall immediately be transmitted to the Congress and published in the Federal Register"). Unfortunately, he did it AFTER the publication deadline for Friday, and it is not published on the weekends. No, we haven't heard anything out of Congress, either.
Here is why we want to see the Proclamation:
When the President declares a national emergency, no powers or authorities made available by statute for use in the event of an emergency shall be exercised unless and until the President specifies the provisions of law under which he proposes that he, or other officers will act. Such specification may be made either in the declaration of a national emergency, or by one or more contemporaneous or subsequent Executive orders published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress. (Emphasis added.)
Interesting side note - it suggests that an Executive Order is required. Have previous emergencies been declared by Proclamation?
The issue here is that Obama has engendered no trust whatsoever, so him declaring a national emergency when the swine flu has been called mild by some, much less prevalent than feared by others leads it to be a questionable act. Yes, 1,000 people have died - that's tragic. Yes, it seems to be concentrated in young people - even more tragic. But how many people die from the seasonal flu? About 30,000 each year.
Alan note: but 65% are the elderly, old codgers, so should die according to some Administration senior advisors setting policy.
This action suggests the same level of over reaction as calling a joint session of Congress for a political issue.

VOTE THE SCUM OUT! ALL OF THEM. RECLAIM AMERICA.
The entire Congress of the United States is corrupt. And I mean both Houses and I mean both major parties.
I realize that a few Members of each House are Independents
and at least one is a declared Socialist but, as a group of people, they are absolutely the most corrupt bunch to ever disgrace our Nation.
In November of 2010 the entire House of Representatives
will have to stand for re-election; all 435 of them.
One third of the Senate, a total of 33 of them, will also
stand for re-election. Vote every incumbent out.
And I mean every one of them. No matter their Party
affiliation. Let's start all over in the House of Representatives
with 435 people who have absolutely no experience in running
that body, with no political favors owed to anyone but their own constituents. Let's make them understand that they work for us.
They are answerable to us and they simply have to run that body with some common sense..
Two years later, in 2012, vote the next third of the
incumbents in the Senate out. You'll know who they are because their names will be on the ballot and, in most cases, will be shown as the Incumbent.
If you don't know who your Senators are, (there are only two for each State) find out. And then vote them out, too!
We can do the same thing in 2014 and, by that time we will
have put all new people in that body as well.
We, the People, have got to take this Country back and we
HAVE to do it peacefully. That's what the Framers of our Constitution envisioned.
Please, if you love this Country, send this (as I have done) to absolutely everyone whose email address appears in your address book.
This thing can permeate this Country in no time. Let's make it happen..
VOTE THE BUMS OUT. LET'S TAKE AMERICA BACK! IF YOU LIKE THE WAY THINGS ARE GOING IN OUR COUNTRY, THEN DO NOTHING..

OBAMA BOWS TO IRANIAN DEMANDS
Obama Cuts Pro-Democracy Funds for Iran
Newsmax.com
Wednesday, October 14, 2009 7:34 PM
By: Kenneth R. Timmerman
The Obama administration has cut funding for pro-democracy and human rights programs in Iran, reversing years of efforts during the Bush administration to help develop a civil society, congressional sources told Newsmax this week.
The move is apparently intended to please Iran’s rulers after they criticized President Obama and the State Department for allegedly seeking to fund a “velvet revolution” during the June presidential elections in Iran.
“It sounds like the Iranians complained in Geneva and we acceded to their demands,” a former senior government official familiar with the pro-democracy programs told Newsmax.
“It’s shameful,” he added. “This sends a clear message to Tehran that we are empowering the Iranian regime to be obstinate and fight us."

Tennessee School Principal Jody McLoud SPEAKS OUT
Tennessee High School Principal's Remarks About Prayer at a Football Game-Truth!
Summary of eRumor:
This email is about Jody McCloud who is principal at the Roane County High School in Kingston, Tennessee.
In September, 2000, he opened a football game by saying that normally there would have been a prayer, but a Supreme Court decision had ended that...so he read a statement commenting on that and inviting people to pray anyway.
The Truth:
The story is true. TruthOrFiction.com has confirmed both the event and the text of McCloud's statement. McCloud has gotten response and requests for copies from all over the country.
A real example of the story as it has been circulated:
"This is a statement that was read over the PA system at the football game at Roane County High School, Kingston, Tennessee by school Principal Jody McLoud, on September 1, 2000.
I thought it was worth sharing with the world, and hope you will forward it to all your friends. It clearly shows just how far this country has gone in the wrong direction.
"It has always been the custom at Roane County High School football games to say a prayer and play the National Anthem to honor God and Country. Due to a recent ruling by the Supreme Court, I am told that saying a prayer is a violation of Federal Case Law.
As I understand the law at this time, I can use this public facility to approve of sexual perversion and call it an alternate lifestyle, and if someone is offended, that's OK.
I can use it to condone sexual promiscuity by dispensing condoms and calling it safe sex. If someone is offended, that's OK.
I can even use this public facility to present the merits of killing an unborn baby as a viable means of birth control.
If someone is offended, no problem.
I can designate a school day as earth day and involve students in activities to religiously worship and praise the goddess, mother earth, and call it ecology.
I can use literature, videos and presentations in the classroom that depict people with strong, traditional, Christian convictions as simple minded and ignorant and call it enlightenment.
However, if anyone uses this facility to honor God and ask Him to bless this event with safety and good sportsmanship, Federal Case Law is violated.
This appears to be at best, inconsistent and at worst, diabolical. Apparently, we are to be tolerant of everything and anyone except God and His Commandments.
Nevertheless, as a school principal, I frequently ask staff and students to abide by rules which they do not necessarily agree. For me to do otherwise would be at best, inconsistent and at worst, hypocritical. I suffer from that affliction enough unintentionally. I certainly do not need to add an intentional transgression.
For this reason, I shall, "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's," and refrain from praying at this time.
However, if you feel inspired to honor, praise and thank God, and ask Him in the name of Jesus to bless this event, please feel free to do so. As far as I know, that's not against the law----yet."

KEVIN JENNINGS WAS A NAMBLA SUPPORTER? REPORTEDLY, YES..
NAMBLA is a group which encourages and facilitates homosexual activity with children.
Is Obama sending “safe sex schools czar Jennings" to teach about the benefits of underage sex with “older men” they might meet in “publc bathrooms” at the schools his daughters attend?
Obama Administration Condones Sex With Minors
Red State | Sept 29, 2009 | Erick Erickson
Statutory rape? Who cares what goes on between a 15 year old and the man who picked him up in a bus station bathroom. You prude. People with low IQ got to see Whoopee Goldberg defend Roman Polanski on the View yesterday. Whoopee had no problem with the man filling a thirteen year old girl with alcohol and drugs before raping having sex with her. I say “people with low IQ” because demographically those are the only people who watch the View save for those few people forced to watch the show as part of their job.
In any event, Goldberg’s blasé attitude about raping having sex with drug filled children and the implications of statutory rape has spilled over into the Obama administration, which is taking the position that statutory rape is of no great consequence and should, if the child consents, be encouraged.
There is no other way to look at Barack Obama’s appointment of Kevin Jennings, the President’s “safe schools czar” who, the Washington Times reports unapologetically encouraged a homosexual relationship between a fifteen year old boy and much older man who, the boy reported to Jennings, picked the boy up in a bus station bathroom and promptly took the boy home.
Considering Jennings wrote about this in his one and only published book and spoke about this prior to his appointment, we can only assume the Obama administration knew about it and has no problem with it.
According to Mr. Jennings’ own description in a new audiotape discovered by Fox News, the 15-year-old boy met the “older man” in a “bus station bathroom” and was taken to the older man’s home that night. When some details about the case became public, Mr. Jennings threatened to sue another teacher who called his failure to report the statutory rape “unethical.”
Jennings’ defenders have claimed he did not know sex was taking place, which is akin to Roman Polanski saying he did not know his victim was underage despite having to get the written consent of the girl’s mother for the photo shoot that fateful night.
Despite the defenders’ defenses, a new audiotape has Jennings bragging about fostering the relationship between the fifteen year old boy and the bus station bathroom man. Jennings bragged that he told the boy “to use a condom,” which suggests Jennings would rather be the “safe sex schools czar.” Jennings shows no remorse. He delights in encouraging the relationship. And Barack Obama delights in hiring Jennings and shows no remorse either.
At some point we must stop saying that there was a failure to vet these people and conclude that Barack Obama has no more of a problem with men like Kevin Jennings who encourage statutory rape than men like Bill Ayers who encourages cop killing.
COMMENT
There’s no doubt in my mind he’s had sex with underage boys - and he probably still does. Unless someone comes forward, nothing’s going to happen to this pervert.
Even then, he’ll quietly resign while emperor zero feigns shock and disappointment - with his given pass from the Mass Media.
Does this lend credibility to the accusations of homosexual encounters Obama had with a limo driver? Apparently abused sexually by elder men himself as a youth, Obama appears to thus condone such acts or is wreaking yet another revenge on the Americans for what happened to him by making this happen to our school children.

Is Obama sending “safe sex schools czar Jennings" to teach about the benefits of underage sex with “older men” they might meet in “publc bathrooms” at the schools his daughters attend?
Obama Administration Condones Sex With Minors
Red State | Sept 29, 2009 | Erick Erickson
Statutory rape? Who cares what goes on between a 15 year old and the man who picked him up in a bus station bathroom. You prude. People with low IQ got to see Whoopee Goldberg defend Roman Polanski on the View yesterday. Whoopee had no problem with the man filling a thirteen year old girl with alcohol and drugs before raping having sex with her. I say “people with low IQ” because demographically those are the only people who watch the View save for those few people forced to watch the show as part of their job.
In any event, Goldberg’s blasé attitude about raping having sex with drug filled children and the implications of statutory rape has spilled over into the Obama administration, which is taking the position that statutory rape is of no great consequence and should, if the child consents, be encouraged.
There is no other way to look at Barack Obama’s appointment of Kevin Jennings, the President’s “safe schools czar” who, the Washington Times reports unapologetically encouraged a homosexual relationship between a fifteen year old boy and much older man who, the boy reported to Jennings, picked the boy up in a bus station bathroom and promptly took the boy home.
Considering Jennings wrote about this in his one and only published book and spoke about this prior to his appointment, we can only assume the Obama administration knew about it and has no problem with it.
According to Mr. Jennings’ own description in a new audiotape discovered by Fox News, the 15-year-old boy met the “older man” in a “bus station bathroom” and was taken to the older man’s home that night. When some details about the case became public, Mr. Jennings threatened to sue another teacher who called his failure to report the statutory rape “unethical.”
Jennings’ defenders have claimed he did not know sex was taking place, which is akin to Roman Polanski saying he did not know his victim was underage despite having to get the written consent of the girl’s mother for the photo shoot that fateful night.

HOW SENATE PLANS TO PASS HEALTHCARE BILL BY SNEAKY MAJORITY VOTE
DOCTOR'S ORDERS
WorldNetDaily
Analyst: Democrat trickery to force Obamacare
Suggests maneuver will allow simple majority vote on health-industry takeover

An analyst whose responsibilities include working with members of the U.S. Senate for The Heritage Foundation is suggesting that U.S. Lawmakers are so intent on passing President Obama's "comprehensive health care reform" that they will use procedural maneuvers and trickery to accomplish it.
In an analysis posted on Human Events, Brian Darling, the Heritage Foundation's director of U.S. Senate relations, outlines a four-step scenario he believes is possible.
"Despite the potential political risks to moderate Democrats, the president and his left-wing leadership in Congress are determined to pass the measure using a rare parliamentary procedure," he said.
"The Senate plans to attach Obamacare to a House-passed non-healthcare bill," he warned. He explained that would take a simple majority vote once the discussion on a bill is opened, and it could be approved by the House also by a simple majority.
(Story continues below)
Bingo, a finished health care takeover en route to Obama's desk, he said.
This is evident because just last week the Senate Finance Committee refused an amendment by Sen. Jim Bunning, R-Ky., that required the bill text and cost be available to the public for at least 72 hours before the Finance Committee votes.
Darling said the first step is that the Senate Finance Committee must approve a marked-up version of a takeover plan by Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont. Then, he wrote, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., would announce two Senate committees have passed health care takeover plans to bring it to the floor.
Reid then would take the final products of the two committees, the other being from the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pension Committee, and merge them.
That puts Obamacare in the position of being ready, Darling wrote, "to hitch a ride on an unrelated bill from the House."
He said Reid then "will move to proceed to H.R. 1586, a bill to impose a tax on bonuses received by certain TARP recipients."
That has been approved by the House already, but has been wasting away in the Senate.
When that proposal gets 60 votes to start debate, "Reid will offer Obamacare as a complete substitute to the unrelated House-passed bill," Darling outlined. "This means that the entire healthcare reform effort will be included as an amendment to a TARP bill that has been collecting dust in the Senate for months."
The Senate's usually-required supermajority of 60 votes, 58 Democrats including moderates and the two independents, Joe Lieberman of Connecticut and Bernie Sanders of Vermont, would only have to hold together long enough to vote against any filibuster.
"Once the Senate takes up the bill, only a simple majority of members will be needed for passage," Darling warned. "It's possible one of the endangered moderate Democrats, such as Sen. Blanche Lincoln (Ark.), could vote to stop a filibuster then vote against Obamacare so as not to offend angry constituents."
He explained once approved by the Senate, the bill – already approved by the House in a different form – would be returned to the House where members simply would have to give it majority approval without changes.
On a Human Events forum page following Darling's article, one writer probably expressed the feelings of many Americans, "It is now time for 'We the people' to make such an uproar to our senators and representatives in the forms of phone calls, e-mails and letters that there is NO mistaking that we do not want this."
