Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

Wafa Sultan Speaks Up

I feel a need to redeem myself after that last post. Here is a highly intelligent women, being interviewed on Al Jazeera .



Oh and here is a censored version of one of the responses to this video

nav1181 Country: United Kingdom (8 hours ago)
kill the f^^^^n jew, gas the m^^^^^^^^s and those who helped create a country for the most hated people on earth, everywhere these pigs go people want to kill them. why not create israel in aushwitz on top of the pigs who got their just deserts for their terror all over europe



Wafa Sultan is a secular psychologist of Syrian-American origin. Go read more about her on Wikipedia to get the background. Although she is quite well-known for her part in the the public discussion on the clash of civilizations her recent appearance on Al Jazeera has spread on the Internet like wildfire.

For the record the following does NOT express my opinion about women, but it was so absurd I almost fell off my chair laughing.

I will admit had it been longer it might have crossed over into nauseating.

"Der er et yndigt land" (There Is A Lovely Land)


Words by: Adam Gottlob Oehlenschlager
Music by: Hans Ernst Kr?yer
Adopted: 1844

"Derer et yndigt land" was first performed for a large gathering of Danes in 1844, and became popular quickly with the Danish people. It was adopted later that year by the Danish government as a national anthem, but not the sole national anthem. This anthem is on equal status with "Kong Christian",which is both the national and royal anthem.

When the Danish anthem is usually performed or sung, the first verse is played in its entirety, then it is followed by the last four lines of the last verse. (This is true whether the lyrics are sung or not

One Small Fact Rosie Overlooked
Or did she?


The speed and cunning shown by the Revolutionary Guards suggests that their action was premeditated

The Iranians also blundered in diplomatic talks by giving the British their own compass reference for the place where they said the 14 men and one woman had been seized. When Britain plotted these on a map and pointed out that the spot was in Iraq’s maritime area, the Iranians came up with a new set of coordinates, putting the seizure in their own waters.



Let us end with the Immortal Words of Rosie O'Donnell

"Don't fear terrorists, they're just moms and dads."

Up The Tax Collector!

So Iowa has put in place their punitive cigarette tax.

One dollar a pack, ten dollars a carton. They figure in time folks will adjust and not drive across the State Line to buy cheaper cigarettes.

Now I live towards the center of the State, so I have decided upon a different response.

Loose Cigarette Tobacco!


Our 14 Ounce Premium Pouch
Preserves Freshness and is Resealable
Makes Around 2 Cartons of Premium Cigarettes
TDR0001 One 14 OZ. Pouch of Vengeur $15.95


Now some may think that getting the papers, rolling your own is a bit of trouble and in time I will opt to pay the State the extra money and give that up too.

Actually I am a tad bit lazier than that. I choose not to roll my own cigarettes instead I will use these.






BTW I can get loose cigarette (and it hasn't gone up) at the grocery store, 4 blocks from my house. I will have to buy the corn cob pipes on line but at a couple of bucks each when compared to $10 a carton increase guess what I am going to do when I finish this post.

Take THAT you greedy Revenooers!!!!!!!!!!!

French Jews petition U.S. for asylum

More than 7,000 French Jews have signed a petition asking for political asylum in the United States because of anti-Semitism in France.

"Following the barbarous murder of a young Jew because he was Jewish, in the context of the rise in anti-Semitic acts committed by Islamic fundamentalists, numerous members of the community no longer feel safe in France," reads the petition, which was sent to the U.S. Congress. The reference was to Ilan Halimi, a 23-year-old Parisian Jew who was kidnapped and tortured to death last year by an anti-Semitic gang.

The petition asks Congress to enact a law according refugee status to French Jews. "We believe that the United States, known for its traditional welcome to those under threat in their native lands, must open its doors to us," the petition says.

French communal officials reacted with outrage. "This petition is bizarre, stupid and out of place," Haim Musicant, director of CRIF, the umbrella organization of secular French Jewish groups, told Israel's Ma'ariv newspaper. "I don't feel threatened in France, and the authorities are doing everything they can to protect the Jewish community. French Jews don't need this kind of petition."


Despite the denial of a problem by Haim Musicant, director of CRIF, other Jews do not agree as we can see in an article in the International Herald Tribune.

In his native France, a Jew feels betrayed

If that man's story is not convincing this one has to be.

French Jews are bomb-proofing their schools
Mr. Barthel walks me through the school, which was built three years ago to what he calls ?new specifications for a new reality.?

?All of our windows are made with glass both bomb- and bullet-proof; there are security cameras in all the common rooms,? he says. ?You will also notice there is no sign outside of the school that could single it out as a Jewish place.?

[?] Mr. Barthel explains the buddy system instituted at the Benvenuti school for children both arriving and leaving the premises. The students must travel in a pack and are not allowed to wear visible skullcaps or Stars of David anywhere but inside the school. They are also discouraged from dressing in a manner that Mr. Barthel calls ?Shalala,? meaning that they asked to refrain from dressing in a style which in North American parlance might be termed ?Jappy.?

?The Diesel jeans, the tight bomber jackets, these things can also make them look like Jews,? he says. ?They must look more quiet now, for safety.?

Mr. Barthel is the father of two young children. Last year, his children?s school bus, belonging to a Jewish school in Epinay-sur-seine, a northern suburb of Paris, was set on fire. ?The bus was empty when it was attacked, but still,

nobody did anything about it, not the police, not the government.?


Jews are fleeing Europe in droves, in fear for their lives and property. Jews are constructing bomb-proof schools for their children, guarded by armed men. Bomb-proof schools. Bomb-proof schools

Who Do YOU Think Is The Lower Form of Life?

I have at time's been accused of dehumanizing terrorists. My contention is that I cannot be guilty of that, they themselves have done a far better job of that than I ever could.

I just read an email from a service I subscribe to called. IRIS Blog.

It got me thinking there are degrees of depravity, this has to an example of the very bottom, but maybe there is a level lower.


Jihadis Murder Child Decoys

There is no limit to the depravity of those who are taught it is a sacred duty to kill infidels:

Iraq Insurgents Used Children in Car Bombing

Insurgents in Iraq detonated an explosives-rigged vehicle with two children in the back seat after US soldiers let it through a Baghdad checkpoint over the weekend, a senior US military official said Tuesday.

The vehicle was stopped at the checkpoint but was allowed through when soldiers saw the children in the back, said Major General Michael Barbero of the Pentagon’s Joint Staff. "Children in the back seat lowered suspicion. We let it move through. They parked the vehicle, and the adults ran out and detonated it with the children in the back," Barbero said.

The general said it was the first time he had seen a report of insurgents using children in suicide bombings. But he said Al-Qaeda in Iraq is changing tactics in response to the tighter controls around the city. A US defense official said the incident occurred on Sunday in Baghdad’s Adhamiyah district, a mixed neighborhood adjacent to Sadr City, which is predominantly Shiite.

After going through the checkpoint, the vehicle parked next to a market across the street from a school, said the official, who asked not to be identified.

"And the two adults were seen to get out of the vehicle, and run from the vehicle, and then followed by the detonation of the vehicle," the official said. "It killed the two children inside as well as three other civilians in the vicinity. So, a total of five killed, seven injured."

Officials here said they did not know who the children were or their relationship to the two adults who fled the scene. They had no information about their ages or genders.


I remember years ago, hearing about a motorcycle theft at a local bike shop. A guy came walking up the street to Sill's Cycle shop, carrying a puppy. He started looking over some of the bikes passing the time of day with Don Sills the owner.

He acted very interested in one and asked Don if he minded holding his puppy while he took it on a test spin around the block.

He never came back.

A short time latter some neighborhood children came looking for their puppy.

At least for the kids, that story had a happy ending.

This story has no happy ending.

So my question is:

Who Do YOU Think Is The Lower Form of Life

Someone who would do something like this to innocent children?

Or someone who teaches that doing something like this to innocent children is rewarded with a Free Trip to Paradise.

Just when you think they cannot sink lower they find a new level of depravity.

No I am not the one guilty of dehumanizing their scum.
Their religious leaders are.
