2013_09 07 Prayer and Fasting for peace

  • Sept. 7, 2013: Pope Francis leads a global day of prayer and fasting for peace.
  • Sept. 10, 2013: Syria accepts a Russian proposal to give up all its chemical weapons and Obama asks Congress to delay votes on authorizing military strikes.

The Blessed Virgin Mary told us at Medjugorje:

“Through fasting and prayer, one can stop wars.”

July 21, 1982

THIS is what difference it makes!

This video concisely summarizes the Benghazi scandal, then adds new and explosive information. I.e., that multiple Arab news sources have traced a direct connection between money that Obama sent to the Middle East and the group that killed four Americans during their assault on our embassy in Benghazi.

A GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

History tells us that after there was no more of the known world left to conquer,Alexander the Great wept.It is not beyond reason to think Obastard likewise felt something of a tinge (someone bereft of compassion has no capacity for sorrow or tears) when he came to the reality that he could no longer do the only thing in life he was ever any good at…campaigning. He will spend the next four years preening for an adoring mob and exacting revenge on the people of this country who are everything he is not: hard-working,honest,independent, spirit-filled families that endure what comes and attach no blame for their circumstance.They raise their children in the ideal that nothing of worth ever comes easy or without effort.

In all likelihood we will,indeed,careen over the “fiscal cliff” because that’s precisely what he wants.He doubled down on his demand for tax increases and now has $1.6 trillion as a target.He knows the republicans would be committing political suicide by surrendering to this magnitude of fiscal thievery and,of course,the resultant maelstrom will be blamed entirely on the GOP by his loyal bootlickers in the media. There will be multitudes of illegal,immoral, unconstitutional acts perpetrated by the left and the bastard’s overt duplicity will ,of course,be ignored or dismissed out of hand.

The regime knew of Gen. Petraeus’ trysts for some time and held it over his head like the sword of Damocles.He foolishly thought if he gave in to their extortion they would cover for him.He served his country with honor,but he doesn’t know shit about liberals.He is testifying today behind closed doors and will ‘revise’ his remarks about the Benghazi murders being a protest.I know there are several gold-digging bimbos involved,but I don’t care enough to get into the details.All I know  is that the administration allowed the affair to go on and jeopardize national security.

The Palestinian killers were elated that Brother Hussein will be around for the next few years so they can go forward with their plans to attack Israel with impunity.America will stand by and watch.Israel knows it too,and unlike what we’re stuck with,they have a leader who really does love his country and is willing to kill those who would destroy her.Would that we had a leader with an iota of the stuff Mr. Netanyahu is made of.Unfortunately we’re stuck with what we got.

Urgent call to prayer for ISRAEL

Keep in mind, these are from the comments section of http://neoneocon.com/2012/09/14/it-seems-to-me-weve-reached/#comment-416590

But with things in the Middle East as they are, we need to step up our prayers for Israel regardless.

A friend sent me this a couple of hours ago, and it made the hair on the nape of my neck stand up. God help us all, and God particularly help the Jews of Israel.

>>Urgent Prayer needed: A friend received this e-mail 9.11.2012 From A.G. Missionary
************************************************
My brother and his family live in Jerusalem – he is a minister – and a former Navy SEAL – his office is close to one of Israel ‘s largest underground military bases.

He called me last night (9/10/2012) which is very unusual – usually it is email.

He called to tell me that he is sending his family back to the US immediately due to what he is seeing happen within the last week and what he is being told by his military contacts in both the Israel and US military.

He said he is seeing with his own eyes military movements the likes of which he has never seen in his 20+ years in Israel .

What he called a massive redeployment and protective tactics of forces is underway.

Over the last two days he has seen anti-aircraft missile deployments throughout the Jerusalem area including 3 mobile units that he can see from his office windows.

In addition, he has seen very large Israeli armored columns moving fast toward the Sinai where Egypt has now moved in Armor.

There are reports of the top military leaders meeting with Israel ‘s Sr. Rabi which is something that has happened preceding every prior military campaign.

His admonition is to watch carefully and pray for Israel and its people.

He is convinced that barring something extraordinary, Israel will attack Iran – with or without the US – and very soon.

It is the belief in Israel that Obama does not stand with Israel but with the Arab countries.

He has told me before that Israel will saber rattle from time to time but that this time is very different from what he is seeing and hearing.

He was at the Wailing-(Western)-Wall 2 days ago and there were hundreds of IDF soldiers there. As he was leaving he passed at least 20 military buses full of soldiers in route to the wall.

He has never seen this before either.
Just thought I would pass this along.
My brother is not an alarmist by any means.

BHO’s schedule this week

Chrissy’s Site Bites @ http://news.webshots.com/photo/2855633300056011884WbBnRt

The week of September 10-14, 2012, featured deadly anti-American violence in Libya, Egypt, Lebanon, Tunisia and Sudan, including armed assaults on our embassies, which are sovereign U.S. territories. The following is what President Obama did …

Monday, September 10, 2012

Obama took the day off. Dunno why. Nobody else got it off.

Tuesday, September 11, 2012

At 8:45 AM, the President and the First Lady observed a moment of silence to mark the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, then they went to the Pentagon Memorial 9/11 ceremony. In the afternoon, the President visited Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. At 5:00 PM, the President and the Vice President met with Secretary of Defense.

Meanwhile …

Armed Muslim extremists attacked and burned our consulate in Benghazi, Libya, murdering our Ambassador and three security guards. Our State Department responded with apologies to the attackers for whatever we did that made them so mad at us. The Libyan government and citizenry apologized to the United States for the attack. Romney condemned the attack and the State Department’s apologies. The Obama campaign condemned Romney. Obama said nothing.

The White House let us know that Obama will be Much Too Busy to meet with the Israeli Prime Minister when Netanyahu visits the U.S. later this month, but that Barack will be squeezing an appearance on David Letterman into his “busy” schedule.

Last month, Obama arranged a meeting with Egyptian President Mohammad Morsi for later this month. Morsi is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood whose motto is, “Allah is our objective; the Quran is our law, the Prophet is our leader; Jihad is our way; and death for the sake of Allah is the highest of our aspirations.” Its most famous slogan, used worldwide, is “Islam is the solution.”

Wednesday, September 12, 2012

At 10:35 AM, the President finally got around to delivering a statement condemning the attack, then he went to the State Department for a meeting.

Then he went to a campaign event in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Thursday, September 13, 2012

At 1:10 PM, the President went to a campaign event in Aurora, Colorado.

Friday, September 14, 2012

In the morning, the President and the Vice President received the ONE AND ONLY Presidential Daily Briefing of the entire tumultuous week. It lasted all of THIRTY MINUTES.

Then, he and the First Lady welcomed the 2012 U.S. Olympic and Paralympic teams to the White House.

In the afternoon, Obama went to attend the Transfer of Remains Ceremony to the United States of the remains of the four Americans killed this week in Benghazi, Libya.

In the evening, he went a campaign event.

THE FRIDAY GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

Great comments yesterday.It serves to remind us that politics isn’t the be-all and end-all.Each day presents a new list of challenges,mountains to be climbed and troubles to overcome.We face them as we must,with the help of faith,family and friends.Thankfully,this site is a refuge that offers them in abundance.Every day I sit down at my computer and cast my rhetorical bread upon the waters and the blessings always come back tenfold.Even when I’m in a bad mood,I know you folks come here to read the mindless drivel that flows from my warped brain through the keyboard and onto the screen.

PETE’S SHORTS:

Ben Bernanke yesterday announced he would implement QE3.He gives a list of convoluted reasons for it,but here’s the truth:it won’t work and he knows it.The first two rounds did nothing,this won’t either.What he is doing,in actuality,is dumping tens of billions of dollars backed by nothing onto the market to buy up worthless mortgages to prop up the market so it doesn’t crash under this president’s rule.It also serves to enrich Obama’s big Wall Street backers.After November it will be irrelevant to him.Either Obama will be reelected and it won’t matter,or Romney will be elected and he’ll get the blame.Count on it.

More information has come out about the Embassy murders in Libya.Apparently,Chris Stevenns was raped before they killed him.I saw photos this morning of bloody fingers streaked along the wall,when they dragged them out.They had been moved to a second building in the Embassy compound that was not guarded by the Marines,but the Libyan security forces who told the mob where they were.The SEALS who were killed had guns,but did not have live ammunition.It is this State Department’s policy that American forces in foreign countries carry unloaded weapons.In other words,they’re sitting ducks.

Our fearless leader has ordered a group of about 50 Marines to Libya as a rapid response team.What is it about liberals that makes them think a few score soldiers against tens of thousands of bloodthirsty savages is a fair fight?Remember Mogadishu?If any republican president acted as cavalierly as this shitheel has while the mideast erupts,the impeachment hearings would already have begun.When Obama comes out,lies through his teeth then turns his back on his adoring sycophants in the media it bothers them not a whit.Romney comes out to make a statement,as real leaders should,and all they can think of is how to screw him.

I have more to say,I always do.But it can wait.Enjoy.

‘THEN I TOLD THAT JEW I WAS TOO BUSY TO MEET HIM NEXT WEEK.AIN’T THAT A SCREAM?’

Obama hearts Palestine, hates Israel

January 2009: Just days after he became President, Barack Obama chose to grant his first public interview to Al-Arabiya, a leading worldwide Arab satellite channel based in Dubai. In the interview, he assured Muslims that America was not an enemy.

November 2009: The White House released a photo of Obama talking on the phone to Prime Minister Netanyahu from the Oval Office. It shows him sitting back, with his feet up on the Resolute Desk; the photographer was in front of the desk, making the most prominent feature of the photo the soles of Obama’s shoes.

obama

March 19, 2012: The White House released a photo of President Obama talking on the phone with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas from the Oval Office. It shows him sitting up straight, shoes totally out of sight.

obama

In Middle Eastern cultures, it is a serious offense to show the soles of your shoes to someone. This is why that journalist threw shoes at President Bush and the heavy media coverage of that insult ensured that the insult Obama sent Israel with these photos was not only understood in the Middle East, but here as well.

May 2011: The White House released photos of Obama’s Oval Office meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in which Obama’s anger and loathing for the Israeli leader are readily apparent.

obama-netanyahu

July 26, 2012: Obama’s Press Secretary absolutely refused to say where Israel’s capital is [:51]

July 29, 2012: During his visit to Israel, Mitt Romney publicly referred to Jerusalem as “the capital of Israel.” Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said,

Mitt, I want to thank you for those very strong words of support and friendship for Israel and for Jerusalem that we heard today in your speech by the walls of Jerusalem. Jerusalem today is marking the destruction of the city thousands of years ago. As you see it’s been rebuilt by the Jewish people, open to all the three great faiths, vibrant, bustling, and as you said, Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, and Jerusalem will always be the capital of Israel. So welcome to Jerusalem, Mitt. [emphasis added by CtH]

Netanyahu and his wife Sara then had the Romneys over for dinner.

September 2, 2012: The Pentagon basically pulled out of a joint military exercise with Israel that had been scheduled for next month. A senior member of Israel’s security cabinet said,

This is the Obama administration’s response to the dinner party Netanyahu held in (Mitt) Romney’s honor. … There is no doubt that President Barack Obama, if he is reelected, will make Netanyahu pay.

MSM war bias

As far as the Democrat Media Complex is concerned, wars are only newsworthy when there is a Republican in the White House.
