Last Shah's Son Calls for Protests Against Iran
Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of the late, last Shah of Iran, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, has called for massive, worldwide protests against Iran's Islamonazi regime and for the nations of the world to withdraw their envoys from Iran. Click here for the story.
The Shah, a pro-American, modernizing monarch, was overthrown by an Islamist revolution, led by the hate-filled, fanatical Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, with the complicity of the craven Carter administration--which cynically sought to jump aboard the Islamist bandwagon--and support from Marxist revolutionaries who mistakenly believed that they could ride the Islamist tiger without being eaten by it.

Obama-Backed Euro-Mediterranean Pact Integrates Muslim-Menaced Continent with Muslim N. Africa
The indomitable Pamela Geller exposed the perfidious
pact--here--in The Washington Times. First-rate reporting and analysis by the editor and publisher of Atlas Shrugs. Geller is the author (with Robert Spencer) of the forthcoming book The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War on America (Simon and Schuster, July 2010).

Barack Obama's support for the insane (from a Western perspective) initiative is in line with his support for Turkey's bid for EU membership and backing for burqa-wearing in France. The first Muslim-born, Third World-American President, who has made appeasement of radical Islam the hallmark of his foreign policy, is basically competing with Al Qaeda chief Osama Bin Laden for leadership of "the Muslim world."
Understanding Obama's actual agenda is key to making sense out of such seemingly irrational acts as allowing Iran another year to acquire atomic arms, bringing Al Qaeda war criminals to New York for a civilian court trial, and deciding to surge into and run out of Afghanistan after months of dithering and delays.
Obscene KSM Trial Will Cost $100 Million
The estimated cost of the planned civilian court trial in New York City of Al Qaeda war criminals--enemy combatants captured abroad--is now $100 million. Click here for the story.
The obscene trial is an obvious security nightmare. A great deal of media attention has been given to plans for safeguarding lower Manhattan, the presumed location of the trial, against terrorist attack.
Missing from the national discussion of the Obama administration's disgraceful decision is the threat to other Manhattan locations--the possibilities, for example, of car-bomb attacks on crowded Midtown streets or in poorly protected, Upper East Side, high-rise apartment building parking garages, suicide bombers on subway trains or buses, and Mumbai-style swarming attacks on restaurants and stores, schools and nursing homes, and other soft targets elsewhere on the island or in the city's other boroughs.
Suburban cities and towns--and commuter rail lines--will also be targets. The Islamonazi enemy can be expected to go to any and all possible lengths to carry out the most vicious acts of revenge and hostage-taking on U.S. soil with a focus on the New York metropolitan area.
In other words, the Obama administration, which refers to terrorist attacks as "manmade disasters," is creating a manmade catastrophe.
It is up to the U.S. Congress to prevent it from happening.
POSTSCRIPT: Nearly 60% of U.S. voters favor waterboarding the captured Islamonazi terrorist--a young, Al Qaeda-connected man from an affluent Nigerian family--who tried to blow up a U.S. airliner on Christmas Day. Click here for the story. Obama has referred to the enemy alien as a "suspect."
