Who chose the media to negotiate the surrender? NBC is naming a waiter turned thug (with a rap sheet) turned impostor developer, Sharif El-Gamal, as "person of the year" because he is behind building a triumphal mosque at Ground Zero, the site of the largest, most heinous attack on US soil in American history. Now TIME is submitting to this grotesque second wave of the 911 attacks. Extremist Imam Rauf is up for TIME's man of the year. I kid you not. Check out this outrage: PLEASE VOTE FOR ANYONE EXCEPT THE STEALTH JIHADIST IMAM. (I voted for Sarah.) Or TIME magazine's "Man of the Year" candidate, the radical imam Rauf who said that the "US has more Muslim blood on its hands than al-qaeda has the blood of innocent non-Muslims" and that Osama Bin Laden was made in the USA. Note the website --Cordoba, iconic of Islamic conquest over the West. From Durban: Once again we look north for leadership with a moral compass. Gd bless Canada. Obama, you shame us, yet again. Canada will boycott a planned antisemitic UN conference on racism in New York in September because it promises to be nothing more than a “hatefest,” directed largely at Israel. Like the Ground Zero mosque architects, the UN has decided to pour salt in the wounds of still grieving Americans. The crowds at Durban I held high their signs reading: “For the liberation of Quds, machine-guns based upon faith and Islam must be used,” and “The martyr’s blood irrigates the tree of revolution in Palestine.”(more here) The US should have been the first to take a stand against genocide and apartheid. But Obama won't; he'll be there and drag the US down even further. At some point we all will have to go on a massive apology tour to the free world for Obama. He is a curse on this nation and all lovers of freedom. UN racist Hatefest, Durban III, is coming to NYC on 10th Anniversary of 911: FDI/SIOA Mega Protest Against Durban Hate We will be there with thousands of defenders of freedom and Western values, and those who refuse to allow a second holocaust. Evil will not win this time. Six million Jews will not be sacrificed to Islam. Plan your vacation, time off, sick leave for September -- stand with us against Islamic supremacism. CANADA OPTS OUT OF DURBAN HATEFEST National Post Grammie must be behind the curve. Not to worry, Grams, he's almost there. More of Obama revealed. What a fraud was perpetrated on the American people. Remember that Obama's Grandmother was a committed "Christian" when Obama was campaigning, and after the inauguration, voila!, "a lifelong Muslim." Taqiyya, baby. Sarah Omar, 88, who was on hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, told the Al-Qatan Saudi daily: "I prayed for my grandson Barack to convert to Islam". The paper said that Ms Omar was in Saudi Arabia on pilgrimage along with her son, Mr Obama's uncle Saeed Hussein Obama, and four of her grandchildren. Ms Omar told the newspaper that she could only discuss hajj matters and would not comment on Mr Obama's politics. In this Obama Family photo are: (bottom row, from left) half-sister Auma, her mother Kezia Obama, Obama's step-grandmother Sarah, a devout Muslim and unknown; (top row, from left) unknown, Barack Obama, half-brother Abongo (Roy) Obama, s a Luo activist and a militant Muslim who argues that the black man must "liberate himself from the poisoning influences of European culture." He urges his younger brother to embrace his African heritage. If you haven't read my book -- you missed this: The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War on America [copyright] Obama’s Grandmother: a Christian in 2008, a Muslim in 2009 Sarah Hussein Obama, 86, Barack Obama’s Kenyan grandmother, was angry. In March 2008, when asked about the rumors that her illustrious grandson was or had been a Muslim, she replied: “Untruths are told that don’t have anything to do with what Barack is about. I am very against it.” A photo was circulating of Obama in Muslim garb, and his grandmother was fuming. “Bringing such pictures that are trying to imply that not only is he a foreigner, he is a Muslim, is wrong, because that is not what he is.” But wasn’t the candidate’s father a Muslim? That didn’t matter, said Sarah Obama: “In the world of today, children have different religions from their parents.” Associated Press added: “She, too, is a Christian.”[i] Yet in May 2009, the Daily Times of Pakistan reported that Sarah Obama would “perform haj this year along with her son Syed Obama, a private TV channel reported on Saturday….The channel said performing haj is one of the most desired wishes of the US president’s grandmother.”[ii] The Haj is the pilgrimage to Mecca that all Muslims are obliged to make at least once in their lives if they are able. Non-Muslims are not permitted to make the Haj or even to enter Mecca, the site of the pilgrimage and the holiest city in Islam. The highway in Saudi Arabia that leads to Mecca even has an exit labeled “Non-Muslims must exit here.” Thus Sarah Obama’s performance of the Haj means that she must be a Muslim, and that she was actually a Muslim in March 2008 (just when the presidential race was heating up) when AP reported that she was a Christian – unless we are expected to believe that this octogenarian woman converted to Islam between March 2008 and May 2009 without attracting any attention from the international media. Why was Obama’s grandmother represented as a Christian when she wasn’t? Who was responsible for the deception? Why didn’t the Obama campaign, in the interests of openness and full disclosure, correct the false report about the candidate’s grandmother when it circulated around the world? And why wasn’t anyone in the mainstream media asking such questions? Nor did Obama’s Muslim connections – connections he denied having while he was on the campaign trail – end even there. The turkey being served up this year by the supremacist ruling elite is the American people. Menstruating woman subjected to TSA grope because panty-liner obscured her vulva on pornoscanner -- Cory Doctorow Boingo, Boingo (hat tip shy guy) A self-described "rule follower" went through an airport pornoscanner wearing a panty-liner (she was menstruating). Because the hygienic item obscured the screener's view of her vagina vulva, she was made to endure a humiliating fondling, "so invasive that I was left crying and dealing with memories that I thought had been dealt with years ago of prior sexual assaults." When did we agree to surrender to Islam? Seriously. Whom did we appoint/elect to negotiate this surrender? Our surrender has been parceled out in loss of freedom, accommodation, and submission, and in foreign policy. Explain to me how, after 911 and the tens of thousands of Islamic attacks across the the world in the name of jihad, the myriad Muslim insurgencies in numerous countries, the destruction of Western civilization in Europe, and the hundreds of plots thwarted in the West, the American people were sacrificed without being consulted. We cannot address jihad or the teachings that mandate Islamic imperialism and violence for the glory of "allah." Nothing is being done to defeat that which inspires the enemy. President Obama has banned Islamic extremism from the lexicon. When in India, he was asked for his opinion, his "take" on jihad, and he surrendered in his response: "Islam is one of the world's great religions." Everyday we are forced to submit to some form of the sharia in businesses like Disney, Wal-mart, Target, Rising Star Industries, and J.B. Swift. Individuals are losing their jobs for insulting Islam -- mosqueing of the workplace, Islamic finance, academic jihad, virulent Islamic anti-semitism, historical revisionism, every aspect of our daily lives. Societal surrender by the Obama adminsitration and our political elites. And who softens us up for this civilizational suicide? The media. Who chose the media to negotiate the surrender? NBC is naming a waiter turned thug turned impostor developer Sharif El-Gamal as "person of the year" because he is behind building a triumphal mosque at Ground Zero, the site of the largest, most heinous attack on US soil in American history. Or this outrage: Or TIME magazine's "Man of the Year" candidate, the radical imam Rauf who said that the "US has more Muslim blood on its hands than al-qaeda has the blood of innocent non-Muslims" and that Osama Bin Laden was made in the USA. Note the website -- Cordoba, iconic of Islamic conquest over the West. Islamic supremacism on the march. Note the details of the incident -- two Muslimas refuse to wear helmets over their hijab. Helmets are mandatory in the rink, like it or not. When I bike ride or rollerblade I have to wear a helmet; I don't want to, but I have to. If I get on a motorcycle, I have to wear a helmet. I don't want to but these are the rules. But that's for the kuffar, the infidel. This is Islamic supremacism, special rights for special classes. These demands are daily and part of a much larger agenda. What's all the more galling in this case is that the safety of others is irrelevant. The roller skating rink in Connecticut is standing behind its decision to ask a Muslim woman to remove her headscarf because it could present a danger to skaters if it fell off. (More here) Hamas group CAIR is pursuing litigation jihad as we speak. Muslim woman says roller-skating rink discriminated against her NY Post A Muslim woman claims that a Connecticut roller-skating rink discriminated against her because it wouldn't allow her to skate in her headscarf.

And I have much, so much, to be thankful for -- a loving family from which I draw great strength and my magnificent country, unlike any other in the history of man. Thank you, dear readers, for your encouragement, your kindness and your support of my work and this blog. We accomplished a great deal this year. We continued to expose Obama and his anti-American agenda. We worked to free Rifqa Bary. We woke up the American people to the stated aim of the Islamic supremacists in America. We revealed the true nature of the stealth jihadists. We alerted to the good folks to the Ground Zero mega mosque -- that was a defining moment in post 911 history, never again will America be fooled by the deception of taqiyya and the stealth jihadists. The American people are on to you. Ironically, the first post about the Ground Zero mega mosque was a year ago -- entitled "Giving Thanks." A big thank you for the huge honor awarded me last week at David Horowitz Freedom Center's Restoration Weekend. I am humbled. “Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly implore His protection and favor; and whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me to recommend to the people of the United States a day of Public Thanksgiving and Prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.

Photo: Bruce Menin, Julie Menin, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Diana Taylor Here is the article in The Jewish Week. Someone send Dickter this book. Grant Request Revives Mosque Controversy Adam Dickter, Jewish Week Application for $5 million from federal fund decried as affront by critics, but board member says it will be decided strictly by grant criteria News that the organization planning an Islamic cultural center near Ground Zero has applied for $5 million in federal recovery funds for programming has reawakened a controversy that largely fell silent months ago. In an interview with Fox News on Tuesday, Rep. Pete King, a Long Island Republican, called the request for funds from the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation insensitive. “It goes entirely against the spirit of the fund,” King said, according to the network’s website. “It’s an affront to the memory of all those who were murdered on 9/11. There are so many worthwhile projects in Lower Manhattan. This shows a gross insensitivity to the most fundamental feelings of New Yorkers and to those murdered on 9/11 it is a slap in the face that is a terrible insult.” The Cordoba House-Park51 project, spearheaded by Imam Feisal Rauf and his wife, Daisy Khan, requested the funds last month, as first reported Monday by the website The Daily Beast. Imam Rauf has been involved in interfaith programs with Jewish organizations over many years but has been criticized for some of his public comments, such as declining in a radio interview to call Hamas a terrorist group. New York’s Landmarks Preservation Commission declined in August to designate protected status to the 19th-century former Burlington Coat Factory building on Park Place, which was damaged by airplane debris during the attack on the Twin Towers. That cleared the last legal hurdle toward building the center, although the developer has yet to raise the more than $100 million needed to build the facility, which has been said to emulate a Jewish community center with ethnic-oriented programming and religious space but open to all area residents. This week, three of the groups declined to comment on news of the grant request. Rabbi Abraham Cooper of the Simon Wiesenthal Center reiterated that group’s earlier position but did not oppose the grant. “We feel the people who need to be heard first and foremost are the families of victims,” he said. “If they feel it’s an appropriate place to be built, there is no reason they shouldn’t go for the funding.” He added, “Obviously this has touched a nerve, and it’s too bad. For someone who is so experienced in interfaith dialogue, if [Imam Rauf] had done some outreach over the last few years maybe this could have been avoided.” Said conservative blogger and staunch Park51 critic Pamela Geller: “It’s an outrage. I’m sure that we will be protesting en masse. The idea that we would be underwriting a 15-story mega-mosque at a building destroyed on 9/11 … reveals the radical Imam’s contempt for the American people and their pain.” The application is for part of a $17 million pool to be dispensed by LMDC for cultural and community enhancement projects that revitalize the area affected by 9/11. It is the third and possibly final round of such grants. Previous grants provided $34 million to various museums and other nonprofit cultural institutions in the area in 2004 and $45 million in community enhancements in 2006, including $4.5 million to area public schools and $5 million for hospitals, according to Julie Menin, a board member of the corporation and chair of Community Board 1. In the present round of grants, 255 organizations have requested $170 million, far more than the available funds. A decision on the allocations is expected early next year. “The funds will go to a number of nonprofit organizations that have meritorious proposals, with a minimum [grant] of $100,000 and a maximum of $1 million,” Menin told The Jewish Week Tuesday. “It’s going to be a very competitive process.” As a member of the panel that will vote on the proposals, Menin declined to comment on any particular grant and the potential impact of the controversy surrounding the Park51 site on the application process. “As always we will vet every application thoroughly,” she said. “Every application has to meet the baseline eligibility requirements.” The vetting process, she said, includes site visits and assessments of financial track records or, in the case of new organizations, the group’s financial viability. Will they vet Imam Rauf, the slumlord, whose slum buildings are in receivership despite receiving two million from city government for repairs, or El-Gamal's rap sheet and his recent eviction from his offices? The Cordoba Initiative, in the early stage of fundraising, has less than $20,000 in the bank, according to the Daily Beast report. Cordoba -- iconic of Islamic conquest over the West. A statement by the Park51 developer, Sharif el-Gamal, published in The New York Times Tuesday, said the grant money, if awarded, would fund domestic-violence prevention programs, language classes, exhibitions and other services at the center, which will employ 150 people. Domestic violence prevention? Is he working on expunging Islamic teachings of the justification for honor killings? Geller noted that Imam Rauf has refused to publicly engage in a debate about the center and his choice of location. “For him, interfaith dialogue goes one way,” she said. Behenna killed an al qaeda jihadist in self defense, and Behenna is going to jail. Saving Behenna saves America. This is our battle -- this is America under attack from the enemy within. If you are in the DC/Virginia area on December 9th at 10 am, please stand with Michael at the courthouse for Michael Behenna's hearing: 901 North Stuart Street, Ste 1200, Arlington, VA. On March 20th, 2009, Army Ranger 1st Lieutenant Michael Behenna was sentenced to 25 years in prison for killing Ali Mansur, a known Al Qaeda operative while serving in Iraq. Mansur was known to be a member of an Al Qaeda cell operating in the lieutenant’s area of operation and was suspected to have organized an attack on Lt. Behenna’s platoon in April 2008 which killed two U.S. soldiers and injured two more. Army intelligence ordered the release of Mansur and Lt. Behenna was ordered to return the terrorist to his home. During the return of Mansur, Lt. Behenna again questioned the Al Qaeda member for information about other members of the terrorist cell, and financial supporters. During this interrogation, Mansur attacked Lt. Behenna, who killed the terrorist in self-defense. The government subsequently prosecuted Lt. Behenna for premeditated murder. Not only is this a miscarriage of justice on the behalf of Lt. Behenna, who was acting to prevent further loss of life in his platoon, it is demoralizing to the U.S. troops who continue to fight on behalf of the freedom and security of our nation. Whether it is U.S. border patrol agents, members of the armed forces, or FBI agents, no individual who is serving on the frontlines in the War on Terror should be so blatantly mistreated. We urgently need your help to correct this terrible wrong against a loyal and faithful soldier. Please contact your congressman and ask them to intervene on behalf of 1LT Behenna. Below is a brief recap of the relevant aspects of Lt. Behenna’s case. Bev Perlson notified me of this hero's clemency hearing: Again: If you are in the DC/Virginia area on December 9th, please join us at the Courthouse for Michael Behenna's hearing: 901 North Stuart Street, Ste 1200, Arlington, VA. The hearing begins at 10am. And this from Defend Michael.com Another victory lap for Islamic supremacists. First the Ground Zero mega mosque -- now this. Despite the outrage and outcry by decent, free men against the genocidal racists of Durban, the hatefest will go forward on the tenth anniversary month of the September 11th attacks. Bam enbarrassed us, yet again, and did not take a strong line against grotesque UN Israel-bashing. The meeting of the Jew-haters will adopt a final “political declaration.” It sounds like the "final solution." They failed last time when the Muslim world aligned with Hitler. And so here we are again with the six million Jews now in Israel. FDI/SIOA will hold a worldwide protest against the racism hatefest Durban III Set for NYC, Sept 2011 We will be there to stop them. SIOA, along with our groups American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), Global Freedom Initiative, Israel Freedom Initiative, SIOE, SIAD, SIO Poland, SIO Romania, SIO Bulgaria, SIO France, SIO Sweden, SIO Norway, et al, call upon everyone to join us and march against this century's nazism. Start planning to be there now. Manhattan, September 2011. If Hitler's successors intend to descend upon NY, the capital of the world, like locusts, we will purge them. Scenes from Durban: below, pamphlets that lamented that Hitler did not complete the job of exterminating the Jew. UN Pours salt on America's Wounds FOX News Just when we were beginning to get into the holiday spirit, the United Nations decided that Durban III is coming to town. More Durban highlights: Another victory for the advancing agenda of the Islamic supremacists: George Washington University (recipient of multi-millions of jihad Saudi dollars) has adhered to the sharia and instituted Muslim swim hour, "sisters splash." The Muslim Brotherhood organization, MSA (Muslim Student Association) demanded the "special accommodation" -- special rights for our Islamic superiors, doncha know? Ayesha (so named after Moe's 6 year old wife) N. Khan, legal director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, said there are "no constitutional issues with the swim hour because George Washington is a private university." Thanks for the constitutional lesson, Ayesha. So that means that George Washington receives no federal aid? Huminah, huminah. Money quote: For some Muslims, being in public without a hijab puts them at odds with fundamental aspects of Islam. Oh yes, let's submit and turn our culture inside/out, rightside wrong so that we are not at odds with "fundamental aspects of Islam." Conversion for everyone! This is a disgrace. Women-Only Swim Hour for Muslims Makes Waves on Campus Parent Dish (Hat tip Gulch woman) In an attempt to be inclusive to all religious traditions on campus, last week George Washington University started "Sisters' Splash," a ladies-only swim hour, according to the university newspaper, The GW Hatchet. The school's Lerner Health and Wellness Center closed the pool to men and covered the glass door with a dark tarp, giving female Muslim students the chance to swim at their leisure, while honoring the basic tenets of their religion. But non-Muslims are penalized for our beliefs in Muslim countries. This is no accident. Obama is presiding over, aiding and abetting the decline of America. He is destroying this country.

These new scans are so horrible that if you are wearing something unusual (like a piece of cloth on your panties) then you will be subjected to a search where a woman repeatedly has to check your "groin" while another woman watches on (two in my case - they were training in a new girl - awesome). So please, please, tell the ladies not to wear their liners at the airport (I didn't even have an insert in). I'm a strong, confident woman; I'm an Army vet (which is why those camo liners crack me up), I work full-time and go to graduate school full-time, I have a wonderful husband, and I don't take any nonsense from anyone. I don't dramatize, and I don't exaggerate. I'm trying to give you a sense of who I am so you won't think that this is a plea for attention, or a jumping on the bandwagon about the recent TSA proposed boycott. I just don't want another woman to have to go through the "patting down" because she didn't know that her glad-rag would be a matter of national security."

MUSLIM GANG RAPE GIRLS AS YOUNG AS 12

An Asian [Muslim] gang of 'sexual predators' cruised city streets for girls as young as 12 - usually white - who were then plied with drink and drugs and raped or abused.
Up to 100 ‘vulnerable’ girls may have been groomed, abused or supplied cocaine by married fathers Abid Saddique and Mohammed Liaqat, and their friends.
A court heard the pair used Liaqat’s BMW saloon to trawl for victims, pulling up alongside girls outside shops or schools and chatting them up before a ‘campaign of calls and texts’ to groom them.
Guilty: Married fathers Mohammed Liaqat (left) and Abid Saddique may have abused up to 100 girls
Saddique, 27, and Liaqat, 28, plied the victims - most from broken homes - with vodka and cocaine before taking them to ‘parties’ in hotels or flats with other gang members to rape or degrade them.
When girls refused their advances they were threatened with hammers or thrown out of cars.
Yesterday Saddique and Liaqat, each British-born and of Pakistani origin with an arranged marriage, faced years behind bars after being found guilty of a catalogue of sexual abuse over an 18-month period.

THANKSGIVING TO ALL
GEORGE WASHINGTON’S THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION – 1789
“Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the twenty-six of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that Great and Glorious Being, who is the Beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country, previous to their becoming a nation; for the single manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of His providence, in the courage and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish Constitutions of Government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now instituted; for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.
“And also, that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the Great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether
in public or private institutions, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a government of wise,
just, and constitutional laws, discretely and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us) and to bless them with good governments,
peace and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science, among them and us; and generally, to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity an He alone knows to be best.”
______________________________________________________________
The year that is drawing toward its close has been filled with the blessings of fruitful years and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the Source from which they come, others have been added which are of so extraordinary a nature that they can not fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever-watchful providence of Almighty God.
In the midst of a civil war of unequaled magnitude and severity, which has sometimes seemed to foreign states to invite and to provoke their aggression, peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere, except in the theater of military conflict, while that theater has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union.
Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the field of peaceful industry to the national defense have not arrested the plow, the shuttle, or the ship; the ax has enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well of iron and coal as of the precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than theretofore. Population has steadily increased notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege, and the battlefield, and the country, rejoicing in the consciousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years with large increase of freedom.
No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy.
It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently, and gratefully acknowledged, as with one heart and one voice, by the whole American people. I do therefore invite my fellow-citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next as a day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners, or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it, as soon as may be consistent with the Divine purposes, to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquility, and union.
In testimony wherof I have herunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.

The public can attend this hearing.
I will be there in support of Mike and his family and I hope you will too. Michael Behenna deserves our support! Please bring family/friends with you. I believe that we can make a difference for this Warrior and isn't this the least we can do for him?!
I hope to see you there. This Court needs to see a crowded courtroom. We want them to understand we are watching what they are doing to our Heroes!
Thank You and please pass forward email.

The Band of Mothers
To the thousands of Michael Behenna supporters,
With great anticipation we approach Michael’s Clemency Hearing on December 2nd and then his Appellate Hearing on December 9th. The support Michael has received during the past year has grown far beyond what we could have imagined. Michael and our family have survived on the strength drawn from each of you and the many prayers that have lifted us up during this long and painful search for justice for an American Hero.
We are constantly asked what can be done for Michael. Here are three things that you can do to help our son:
1) Pray! Peace Lutheran in Edmond, Oklahoma will hold a prayer service for justice on Sunday, December 5th. Please lift up Michael the Sunday before his Appellate Hearing and ask God that this injustice be overturned.
2) Sign Michael’s petition. We want to send 25,000 signatures to the Clemency Board by Thanksgiving. To reach this goal we only need 4,000 more signatures. Click on the following link to sign Michael’s petition: www.petitiononline.com/MBehenna/petition.html
3) Send Michael a letter or card. The best part of Michael’s day is when the letters are delivered to his prison cell. He thrives on those letters and your writing has become his eyes on the world. Please send him a short letter or card to let him know that he still has your support and that you appreciate his military service to our country.
It is hard to believe that it has been 18 months since the Army paraded Michael through three airports in handcuffs en route to prison. Since those dark days we have waited patiently for the ‘justice’ system to address all the failures that we witnessed at Michael’s trial. Finally the day has arrived when we will get a chance to argue why Michael’s conviction should be thrown out. With your prayers and relentless support we will prevail and Michael will be free once more!
Bless each of you,
Scott & Vicki BehennaUN RACIST HATEFEST, DURBAN III, COMES TO NYC ON 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF 911
FDI/SIOA MEGA PROTEST AGAINST DURBAN HATE
Late yesterday, the UN General Assembly’s Third Committee adopted a resolution which launches another global “anti-racism” hatefest. It is intended to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the debacle held in Durban, South Africa in 2001. But this time, the UN has outdone itself: the celebration of a notorious prescription for intolerance, closely linked to Islamic extremism, is now scheduled for New York City just days after the 10th anniversary of 9/11.
Like the Ground Zero mosque architects, the UN has decided to pour salt in the wounds of still grieving Americans. The crowds at Durban I held high their signs reading: “For the liberation of Quds, machine-guns based upon faith and Islam must be used,” and “The martyr’s blood irrigates the tree of revolution in Palestine.” The obvious connection between hate and terror, or incitement to violence and violence itself, is either irrelevant to the UN or part of the plan.
The resolution was adopted 121 states for, 19 against and 35 abstentions. States voting against included the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia, and most of the countries that had known Nazism at very close range: Germany, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Poland and Romania.
The plans for Durban III contained in the document are much more explicit than a usual UN resolution and contradict a very active misinformation campaign already underway by the UN and closely-related individuals and organizations.
Most heads of government avoided Durban I and the only one to attend Durban II was the poster-boy for racism and xenophobia himself, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. So for Durban III, the UN decided to ensnare most heads of state and government by scheduling the event to coincide with the annual opening of the UN General Assembly, when they are all present in New York anyway. The resolution sets the date as September 21, 2011 (“the second day of the General Debate”), and specifically designates it as a “High-Level” meeting “at the level of Heads of States and Governments.”
Contrary to some suggestions, the event will not be a quiet commemoration with minimal political design. Amendments made to the resolution late in the day decide that the meeting should “consist…of an opening plenary, consecutive round tables/thematic panels and a closing plenary meeting.” And then the meeting will adopt a final “political declaration.”
Lest anyone be delusional about which country is intended to be the first course at Durban III, the resolution pinpoints only one theme of the Declaration as the meeting’s focal point, namely, “Victims of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerances: Recognition, Justice and Development.” The carefully crafted Durban Declaration lists Palestinians as “Victims of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance.”
Of course, as history has demonstrated time and again, the meal never ends with the Jews. The Dutch representative valiantly spelled out to the General Assembly committee a bigger picture: “The fight against racism and discrimination is of such importance that we cannot support any effort to redirect our attention towards different agendas. Unfortunately, the Durban Declaration and…Review Conference did so…by elevating the protection of religion above the protection and promotion of human rights and by placing unnecessary restrictions on the freedom of expression…”
In addition, in the resolution the UN puts out a call for help from the world of rabble-rousers who masquerade as human rights enthusiasts. Despite being fully aware of the violent extremism characterizing the NGO Forum at Durban I, the resolution asks “civil society, including NGOs” “to organize and support” 10th anniversary initiatives “with high visibility.”
The Obama administration is clearly worried about the effects of Durban III on its policy of embracing the UN and its human rights apparatus. U.S. representative John Sammis spelled out their concerns, lamenting to the UN committee that the event “risks undermining the relationship we have worked hard to strengthen over the past few years between the United States and the UN.”
Indeed it does.
The question now is which countries will ensure that their heads of state and of government will not participate in such an outrage. The United States and Israel walked out of Durban I in disgust.
Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, Germany, Israel, Italy, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, and the United States refused to participate in Durban II.
With 19 votes against and another 35 democracies concerned enough to abstain, it is time to send an even more powerful and permanent message to the UN about Durban and its progeny.
Last night U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, the Ranking Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, called on the Obama administration to “announce publicly, right now, that we will stay away from Durban III, deny it U.S. taxpayer dollars, and oppose all measures that seek to facilitate it. And we should encourage other responsible nations to do the same.”
Unfortunately, comments made by U.S. representative Sammis last evening suggest that the Obama administration will again refuse to take a leadership role in denying legitimacy to the Durban agenda. At Durban II, President Obama pulled out less than 48 hours before the event, ruining chances of building a larger coalition of like-minded states.
APARTHEID SWIM: "SISTER SPLASH" AT GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY

Everything was going swimmingly, and coeds shed their head and body gear and rocked swimsuits, at least until scores of critics began hurling heated comments that continue to pour in on various blogs and news reports, according to the journal Inside Higher Education.
"Should a minuscule minority force the overwhelming majority to abide by their rules or should it be the other way around?" is one of the Internet comments about the female-only swim, the journal reports.
Others include: "Come on, folks. An hour a week -- what's the big deal?" "It's not an unreasonable request. 'Women' is like *half* the population."
Because George Washington is a private university, there should be no constitutional issues with the swim hour, Ayesha N. Khan, legal director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, tells Inside Higher Education.
"Should a similar program start up at a public university, the presence of church-state issues would depend on the many facts of the situation, such as whether access is religion-specific," Khan tells the journal.
Aliya Karim, social chair of the Muslim Students' Association (MSA) women's group, tells the student newspaper the organization made the effort to coordinate the swimming hour so fellow Muslims would feel comfortable in the pool.
"Personally, I would only want to go when just girls are there," Karim, who is also a Hatchet photographer, tells the newspaper.
Rahiba Noor, a junior who serves as the community service chair of the MSA, tells the newspaper that, prior to attending GW, swimming laps at a private pool was an important part of her health regimen. At school, however, Noor tells the student newspaper she's resigned herself to staying away from the water and using a treadmill.
"Religious values always define us," Noor tells the newspaper. "Although I wouldn't really mind, it would be satisfying to me religiously to swim only with girls."
For some Muslims, being in public without a hijab puts them at odds with fundamental aspects of Islam.
Valdez Williams, the operations manager of the gym, tells the newspaper the university helped the MSA coordinate the weekly swim hour because GW wanted to make the girls feel comfortable.

Williams says the university will try to schedule one hour each week for the female students to have private access.
"The girls should be able to swim here," Williams says. "We will not penalize them because of their religious beliefs."OBAMA'S WAR ON AMERICA: CHINA AND RUSSIA QUIT THE US DOLLAR
Chinese experts said the move reflected closer relations between Beijing and Moscow and is not aimed at challenging the dollar, but to protect their domestic economies.
"About trade settlement, we have decided to use our own currencies," Putin said at a joint news conference with Wen in St. Petersburg.
The two countries were accustomed to using other currencies, especially the dollar, for bilateral trade. Since the financial crisis, however, high-ranking officials on both sides began to explore other possibilities.
The yuan has now started trading against the Russian rouble in the Chinese interbank market, while the renminbi will soon be allowed to trade against the rouble in Russia, Putin said.
"That has forged an important step in bilateral trade and it is a result of the consolidated financial systems of world countries," he said.
Putin made his remarks after a meeting with Wen. They also officiated at a signing ceremony for 12 documents, including energy cooperation.
The documents covered cooperation on aviation, railroad construction, customs, protecting intellectual property, culture and a joint communiqu. Details of the documents have yet to be released.
Putin said one of the pacts between the two countries is about the purchase of two nuclear reactors from Russia by China's Tianwan nuclear power plant, the most advanced nuclear power complex in China.

Wen said at the press conference that the partnership between Beijing and Moscow has "reached an unprecedented level" and pledged the two countries will "never become each other's enemy".
