Allah And Man At Yale ( With Apologies To WF Buckley)



The above photo is of Yale's Coxe Cage, October 2008 showing hundreds of area Muslims, including Yale students, gathered for an Islamic service. 

This is the same university where the Yale University Press just censored the Danish MoToons and other imagery of Muhammad from an upcoming book about the cartoons and images of Mohammed, believe it or not.

It's all part of the ongoing Islamization and dhimmitude of Yale and the other Ivy League colleges.Diana West has the story...and more on her blog.

An informative read to start the weekend off with...



Somebody Needs To Doublecheck Their...Ummm..Headlines

Long time Joshua's Army member Louie Louie sent this my way. Kinda funny, and it sort of speaks for itself.

The accompanying photo probably wasn't the best choice either...!



Obama hikes deficit to $9 Trillion - and then goes on vacation


President Obama just revised his ten year deficit projection sharply upwards, from $7.108 trillion to approximately $9 trillion.

And that's without Obamacare.

The figures Obama is admitting to now are more in line with those put out by the Congressional Budget Office. Oh, you remember..the ones Obama and his friends said were all wrong and vastly, vastly inflated.

In other news, the president leaves DC today and is headed to Martha's Vineyard for a 10 day vacation at a private 28-acre estate that rents for $35,000 a week.

I suppose he needs a nice rest after all his hard work.



Tony Blair, British Petroleum And The Lockerbie Deal


This gets dirtier and dirtier:

Tony Blair has been accused of agreeing a 'blood money' deal involving the Lockerbie bomber with Colonel Gaddafi just hours before BP unveiled a £500million oil contract.

The then Prime Minister laid the foundations for the release of Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi during a meeting with the Libyan leader in a desert tent two years ago.

The pair thrashed out a controversial prisoner transfer deal just before BP chairman Peter Sutherland announced the firm was investing $900million - about £545million - to search for oil in Libya. If the firm strikes rich, it could be worth £13billion.

Critics are suspicious that Mr Blair's deal was part of an attempt to develop closer relations with the former pariah state to protect Britain's oil interests.

Susan Cohen, whose only child Theodora, 20, was killed in the bombing, said: 'Tony Blair has behaved absolutely appallingly. Some people would describe it as blood money.

He put compassion for the oil industry ahead of any compassion for my daughter, for the families of all those people killed by a convicted mass murderer and terrorist.

It just shows that the power of oil money counts for more than justice.'

It sure does. Khadaffi paid out about $1.5 billion in compensation to the victims of the Lockerbie bombing - and then got most of it back in exchange for a deal allowing access to Libya's oil.

With the freeing of al-Megrahi, and probably the non-prosecution of whomever it was that fired that shot from inside the Libyan embassy in London that murdered policewoman Yvonne Fletcher while she was patrollingin front of it in 1984, the deal's complete.

I think blood money is a pretty appropriate term.

And if you look at how al-Megrahi was received back home in Libya as a hero and role model , I can almost guarantee you that there will be a further cost to this whole endeavor in the future.

Not that Tony Blair or his ilk are going to be the ones paying the price. That's for the little people, like us.

UPDATE: Seif al-Islam, Khadaffi's son admitted in an interview todaythatthe release of al-Megrahi was directly linked to the oil deal.
