Update: ISIS in Iraq

2014_07 26 ISIS blows up Jonah's tomb

The Mosque of the Prophet Younis (Jonah) was built on an archaeological site dating back to the eighth century BC and is said to be the burial place of the prophet, who in stories from both the Bible and Qur’an is swallowed by a whale.

It was renovated in the 1990s under Iraq’s late dictator Saddam Hussein and, until the recent blitz by Isis that engulfed Mosul, remained a popular destination for religious pilgrims from around the world.

Islamic State (ISIS) militants BLEW IT UP, because they decided it had become a place for apostasy, not prayer. They also blew up another place of worship nearby on Thursday, the Imam Aoun Bin al-Hassan mosque.

The ISIS militants have seized a huge chunk of territory straddling the Iraq-Syria border, and have declared a self-styled caliphate in the territory they control. They’ve been destroying Christian places of worship and targeting Christians and their homes and businesses. They are also cutting off water to Christians and Kurds in regions they do not control.

This is the first I’ve heard of them going after Muslims who aren’t Muslim enough to suit them. During a fundraiser this week, President Obama described the situation in Iraq as “the failure in Iraq for Sunni and Shia and Kurd to compromise.”

Words fail me.

Sacred Catholic art treasures smashed by violent Muslims

Millions of Christians in Syria are suffering mass genocide at the hands of Obama-supported Muslims in Syria.

And the world is silent.

Remember when Obama and Clinton fell all over themselves to apologize to Muslims for an amateurish anti-Muslim video on YouTube that only a few hundred ever viewed?

Where’s their outrage over this appalling desecration of the St. Mary’s Greek Catholic Church in Yabroud?

2014_04 01 Church smashed - Syria

These are cultural treasures, sacred to the people who made and maintain them.  Even if you think Catholics are idolators, the damage to private property should outrage you and the damage to the artwork should make you weep.

Obama makes his own reality

2014_03 Obama promises Ukraine

Elliot Abrams dissects Obama’s responses to Jeffrey Goldberg on Sunday, concluding that Obama has learned nothing in the five years since he said of his own nomination that “this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.”

In short … Obama believes that whatever Obama believes must be so.

Obama’s “policy of passivity in Syria has produced nearly the worst of all possible worlds: 150,000 dead, 6 million homeless, and a menacing gathering of perhaps 25,000 jihadists at the heart of the Middle East.” But in his mind, he’s done the best possible job and anyone who thinks otherwise (including his own Secretaries of State) are just uniformed, wrong or just stupid.

What he had to say about Israel is equally appalling. In short, Israel is uninformed, wrong or just stupid. Obama knows what’s best and Netanyahu better just wise up and get with the Obama program. Or else.

What he had to say about Iran is, if anything, even more horrific. The Iranian leadership has not stopped taking Obama seriously. What a silly idea! As for those Sunnis, well they’re not nervous about Obama. They’re nervous about change. Cuz “change is always scary.” He really said that.

Sarah Palin said, “I find this stunning – scary, sad, and stunning. On the eve of Netanyahu’s visit, President Obama announces to the world that he shall tell Israel’s prime minister what to do; he’ll lay blame for regional unrest on Israel and command they adopt an Obama-sanctioned “peace plan” that requires Israel to concede even more land and authority. Truly stunning.”

So maybe BHO had a nervous breakdown

September 20, 2013: According to the National Report, two reliable confidential informants inside the White House have reported that Obama suffered a mental breakdown and is presently resting and under a doctors care. From the report:

  • This afternoon the National Report received three calls on our nationwide hot tip line (206) 222-1975. Two of the three callers are insiders known to the National Report to be reliable confidential informants. Both confirmed this week has been a political disaster for the president and this has taken a tremendous toll on him.
  • Earlier this week Russian President Vladimir Putin derailed the president’s plan to bomb Syria and bury the U.S. in another war, causing Obama a great deal of shame and public embarrassment.
  • Before Putin resolved the Syrian crisis, he granted political asylum to Edward Snowden, the man who exposed that the NSA is secretly spying on all US citizens with Obama’s approval.

I can believe Obama’s had a nervous breakdown. His thin skin, bad temper and atrocious leadership virtually guaranteed he would at some point or other.

But I am skeptical of this particular source for two reasons:

One, the author got something totally wrong that is very easy to check: “Today’s Gallup poll results have Obama’s approval rating dropped to the lowest in presidential history.”

Obama’s lowest approval at GALLUP was 40% in August 2011. His lowest this month was 44%. The four lowest presidential lows since GALLUP has been tracking this statistic have been GWH Bush 32%, GW Bush 31%, Nixon 25%, Truman 22%.

Two, the ads on the sidebar are of the “I was kidnapped by aliens and gave birth to Satan’s spawn” variety.

Not that absurd grocery store check out tabloids don’t get some stuff right. I think it was The Globe that reported, correctly, that John Edwards had a baby with his mistress while his wife was dying of cancer.

But it puts such a bad taste in my mouth to trust any blog that posts what’s in the sidebar next to the Obama breakdown story: “Twins separated at birth marry and give birth to grotesque incest child.”

Um, hate to break it to ya, but conjoined twins are always IDENTICAL twins. As in two boys or two girls. As in they can’t have a baby together. Sheesh. And the photo looks like something Picasso dreamed up while on LSD, which is worse than getting the Oompa Loompa song stuck in my head.

I need eye bleach.

SOP

2013_09 21 Obama-Kerry's expert fired for faked credentials

Both Senator McCain and SecState Kerry cited this “expert” woman’s opinions during their congressional testimony justifying Obama’s plan to bomb Syria.

SEN. MCCAIN: Secretary Kerry — John, over the weekend, the Wall Street Journal ran an important op-ed by Dr. Elizabeth O’Bagy — I hope you saw it — a Syria analyst at the Institute for the Study of War, spent a great deal of time inside Syria, including just this month. And I want to read her assessment of the situation on the ground. And I quote the story. … John, do you agree with Dr. O’Bagy’s assessment of the opposition?

SEC. KERRY: I agree with most of that.

Even more disturbing than her fake resumé is the previously undisclosed fact that O’Bagy has ties to a rebel advocacy group that is LOBBYING the U.S. government to intervene in Syria on the rebel’s behalf.

So, basically, she’s a total fraud. Oh wait … so are McCain and Kerry. Oh well. Lying and hypocrisy are just SOP when it comes to Obama Democrats. What’s that you say? McCain’s a Republican? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. If you believe that, I’ve got a bridge I’d like to sell you.

Exposing the fake intel used by Obama to justify bombing Syria

The Obama Administration used 13 videos to support their case that Assad’s government had used CWs on Syrian civilians. SecState Kerry put a lot of emphasis on the value of these videos in his August 30, 2013, speech, constantly uses the words “our own eyes” and “seeing.”

Same child in two different pics

Well, a nun named Mother Agnes Mariam used her own eyes and saw a lot of fakery in this so-called evidence. The most glaringly obvious flaw is that the same children show up in scenes that were purported to be of different groups of victims in different neighborhoods. Also, some of the dead children in these scene have been identified by their relatives as among those who had been kidnapped by the Syrian rebels Obama is so hot to support.

Is the 7-year treaty coming?

This year’s United Nations General Assembly opened on September 17 and will close on October 1.

Item 99 on the UNGA Agenda: General and complete disarmament

(v) Implementation of the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on Their Destruction (resolution 67/54);

On September 12, 2013, Haaretz reported:

With Moscow and Washington now discussing a diplomatic deal that would rid Syria of its chemical weapons, officials in Jerusalem are preparing for the possibility that Israel will be asked to submit to supervision of the chemical weapons that foreign reports say it possesses. Israel signed the Chemical Weapons Convention in 1993, but never ratified it. Consequently, it hasn’t agreed to submit itself to international inspections or to refrain from steps that would violate the convention.

On September 14, 2013, the United Nations announced:

It has received all documents necessary for Syria to join the Chemical Weapons Convention starting on Oct. 14, 2013.

Also on UNGA Agenda:

Item 99: General and complete disarmament

(u) Treaty banning the production of fissile material for nuclear weapons or other nuclear explosive devices (resolution 67/53).

On September 18, 2013, a high-level statement came out of Iran:

It said the country’s new leaders want to compromise in negotiations over its WMD programs. Iran’s new president, Hassan Rouhani, told NBC News that Iran would never “seek weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear weapons” and that he had “full power and complete authority” to make a nuclear deal with the West when he goes to the United Nations next week.
