You have to watch very carefully as you read the news. Of interest is that Obama is backing the UN in their effort to investigate the flotilla incident, and I think we all know the outcome even before it begins.
And than this week Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) pointed out that if an organization like Hamas was operating out of Canada and threatening US citizens, "America would have a tougher blockade than Israel has."
Meanwhile, US President Barack Obama was expected to offer even more money to Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas when the latter visited the White House on Wednesday.
An Obama Administration official told Reuters that the money would be aimed at "improving life for the people of Gaza." Isn’t that just wonderful of his humanitarian efforts towards terrorists?
Washington likes to think that by giving the money to Abbas it will stay out of the hands of Hamas. What a joke, because last October, Bassem Khoury, economic minister for the Palestinian Authority, revealed in an interview with French newspaper Le Monde that Hamas ends up pocketing much of the money anyway.
And than Saudi Arabia has conducted tests to stand down its air defences to enable Israeli jets to make a bombing raid on Iran’s nuclear facilities, The Times can reveal.
In the week that the UN Security Council imposed a new round of sanctions on Tehran, defence sources in the Gulf say that Riyadh has agreed to allow Israel to use a narrow corridor of its airspace in the north of the country to shorten the distance for a bombing run on Iran.
To ensure the Israeli bombers pass unmolested, Riyadh has carried out tests to make certain its own jets are not scrambled and missile defence systems not activated. Once the Israelis are through, the kingdom’s air defences will return to full alert.
Sources in Saudi Arabia say it is common knowledge within defence circles in the kingdom that an arrangement is in place if Israel decides to launch the raid. Despite the tension between the two governments, they share a mutual loathing of the regime in Tehran and a common fear of Iran’s nuclear ambitions. “We all know this. We will let them [the Israelis] through and see nothing,” said one.
The four main targets for any raid on Iran would be the uranium enrichment facilities at Natanz and Qom, the gas storage development at Isfahan and the heavy-water reactor at Arak. Secondary targets include the lightwater reactor at Bushehr, which could produce weapons-grade plutonium when complete.
And now, Helen Thomas has new fans in the Middle East. Her journalism career in America may be over, but if 89-year-old Helen Thomas still has the energy, there is an enormous audience willing to hang on her every word in the Middle East.
If by chance you haven’t heard, Thomas was compelled to resign as White House correspondent and columnist for the Hearst newspaper group after she told an interviewer the the Jews should "get the hell out of Palestine." When Rabbi David Nesenoff of Rabbi LIVE asked Thomas where the Jews should go, she callously suggested they return to Germany and Poland, where millions of Jews were massacred during World War II.
Thomas has won mild support from the more left-leaning sectors of the US news media, but among terrorist organizations in the Middle East, she has become an icon.
"Respected American journalist Helen Thomas's answer shows ... a courageous, bold, honest and free opinion which expresses what people across the globe believe: that Israel is a racist state of murderers and thugs," said Hussein Moussawi, a Hizballah terrorist who serves in Lebanon's parliament.
Hamas has also come out in support of Thomas, who is of Lebanese descent.
Meanwhile, Rabbi Nesenoff has been receiving death threats for uncovering the true face of Helen Thomas.
Nesenoff wrote on RabbiLIVE.com that since interviewing Thomas, he has received thousands of pieces of hate mail, some of them calling for the murder of him and his family. Others have said the affair highlights the need for a new Holocaust against the Jews.
It is wonderful to know that the same ones who are seeking the demise of Israel just want to be good “law abiding citizens” of the United States. Maybe I need to point out shirea law.
And why are we building places of worship for Muslims inside our airports?
The Kansas City International Airport has added several foot-washing basins in restrooms to accommodate a growing number of Muslim taxicab drivers who requested the facilities to prepare for daily Islamic prayer, WND has learned.
The move concerns airport police who worry about Middle Eastern men loitering inside the building. After 9/11, the airport beefed up its police force to help prevent terrorist attacks.
"Why are we constructing places of worship for them inside our airports?" said an airport official who requested anonymity. "Why are we catering to their rituals? We don't do it for any other religion."
It sure is looking like “a good day to fly.”
