US reportedly warns Israel that strike on Iran will cause Egypt, Jordan to sever ties
The US has recently warned Israel that an Israeli strike on Iran will likely cause Egypt and Jordan to annul their peace agreements with Israel and sever ties, according to a senior Israeli official quoted by the Hebrew daily Yedioth Ahronoth on Thursday.
“These days, Arab leaders don’t rule their people. Rather, the street rules its leaders,” the official was quoted as saying. “An Israeli strike is exactly what the Iranians need: the entire Arab and Muslim street will go out to demonstrate.”
The Israeli official reportedly linked between the anticipated Arab reaction to an Israeli strike and the current rage-fueled wave of anti-Western protests in the wake of the publication of a trailer for a new film, “Innocence of Muslims,” that denigrates Islam’s Prophet Muhammad.

Muslims Fan Protests ahead of UN Defamation Debate
A perverse ‘Process’: Hillary’s free-speech follies By NINA SHEA. This article was written last December. Shea explained that for over a decade the OIC has been pushing for the criminalizing of criticism of Islam and that the US has resisted in the name of free speech until Hillary entered the scene. She raised the possibility that the US would limit free speech to protect Islam. All the protests and attacks on the US Embassies are intended to give her the necessary push to comply with their wishes.Ted Belman
What’s the real goal of those leading these protests around the world? It could be more about an upcoming debate at the United Nations than the anti-Muslim film about Islam’s Prophet Mohammed.
Addressing the recent unrest, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told member states at the 67th session of the U.N. General Assembly they face an urgent agenda, one where calm voices and moderation must prevail.

France is now facing the prospect of a violent backlash following the publication of controversial Prophet Mohammed cartoons by the satirical weekly magazine Charlie Hebdo showing the Prophet Mohammed naked. Trying to head off a firestorm not only in the Muslim world but also within the large Muslim population living in France, French officials condemned the publication. Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, for example, said that while he respects the right of free expression he sees “no point in such a provocation.”

Australia censors free speech
by Soeren Kern, GATESTONE INSTITUTE
Geert Wilders, the Dutch MP who frequently warns about the dangers of Islamic radicalism, has applied for a visa to visit and give speeches in Australia, but the application has stalled.
The official reason for the delay is that Wilders is on the Movement Alert List, a database of people of security concern to the Australian government. It means that his application is being held up at the Department of Immigration headquarters in Canberra while more thorough security checks are done.
But the real reason for the delay is that the high priests of Australian multiculturalism want to silence Wilders’ warnings about the tragic failure of multiculturalism in Europe.

Report Blows HUGE Hole In Obama’s Fake Biography
The Lid blogs on the story:
The Washington Examiner has investigated the narrative given to us by Barack Obama and the Democratic party and found it filled with lies. The truth is the president had a privileged up-bringing, went to the best schools throughout his life. His mother and step-father lived in the most exclusive neighborhood in Jakarta, Grandma who raised him in Hawaii was a bank VP. In Chicago he lived in the very upscale Hyde Park, and his clients were not the poor and underprivileged but the wealthy, some of who took advantage of Chicago’s poor. Oh and about his time as a professor, he wasn’t very popular–in fact it looks as if he mailed it in.

Stop the silent surrender of the Negev
Only when the government of Israel is determined to restore the rule of law to the Negev will the Beduin understand they have something to lose, and only thus will it be possible to speak of a historic compromise and successful settlement.
When Israel realized that it could no longer ignore the massive spread of illegal Beduin settlement in the Negev, it developed generous programs to regularize the situation. In 2007, it established the Goldberg Commission, headed by retired Supreme Court Justice Eliezer Goldberg. Following the publication of its recommendations, the chairman of the Policy Planning Division of the Prime Minister’s Office, Ehud Prawer, was appointed to lead a committee to convert those recommendations into a viable government program. In 2011 the committee’s report was published, and approved by the government.
