Saudis Forces Mass On Jordanian, Iraqi Borders, While Turkey, Syria Reinforce Strength

http://www.debka.com

The Syrian crisis was Friday, June 29, on a knife edge between a Western-Arab-Turkish military offensive in the next 48 hours and a big power accord to ward it off.

debkafile’s military sources report heavy Saudi troop movements toward the Jordanian and Iraqi borders Thursday overnight and up until Friday morning, June 29, after King Abdullah put the Saudi military on high alert for joining an anti-Assad offensive in Syria.

The Saudi units are poised with tanks, missiles, special forces and anti-air batteries to enter Jordan in two heads:
One will safeguard Jordan's King Abdullah against potential Syrian or Iranian reprisals from Syria or Iraq.

The second will cut north through Jordan to enter southeastern Syriam, where a security zone will be established around the towns of Deraa, Deir al-Zour and Abu Kemal – all centers of the anti-Assad rebellion. The region is also the home terrain of the Shammar tribe, brethren of the Shammars of the Saudi Nejd province.

The Saudi units deployed on the Iraqi border are there to defend the kingdom against potential incursions by Iraqi Shiite militias crossing into the kingdom for reprisals. The Iraqi militias are well trained and armed and serve under officers of the Iranian Al-Qods Brigades, the Revolutionary Guards’ external arm.

Western Gulf sources report that Jordan too is on war alert.
Following the downing of a Turkish plane by Syria a week ago, Turkey continues to build up its Syrian border units with anti-aircraft guns, tanks and missiles towed by long convoys of trucks.

A Free Syria Army officer, Gen. Mustafa al-Sheikh, reported Friday that 170 Syrian army tanks of the 17th Mechanized Division were massed near the village of Musalmieh northeast of Aleppo, 30 km from the Turkish border. He said they stood ready to attack any Turkish forces crossing into Syria.

As these war preparations advanced, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton arrived in St. Petersburg Friday for crucial talks with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. They meet the day before the new UN-sponsored Action Group convenes in Geneva to discuss UN-Arab League envoy Kofi Annan’s latest transition proposal for Syria. He hopes for a political settlement that will ward off military intervention.

Invited to the meeting are the five veto-wielding UN Security Council members plus Turkey and Arab League envoys from Qatar, Kuwait and Iraq.

Annan proposes forming a transitional national unity government in Damascus that includes the opposition and excludes unacceptable regime members.

It was widely reported Thursday that Russia had agreed to this formula, even though it entailed evicting Bashar Assad from power. However, Lavrov stepped in to correct the record, stressing in reference to the Annan proposal that Moscow would not lend its support to “any outside interference or imposition of recipes in Syria.”

This position is doubly aimed at the intensive military movements afoot around Syria.

Clinton and Lavrov are therefore expected to go at the Syrian issue hammer and tongs. The outcome of their meeting will not only determine the course of the Action Group’s discussions but, more importantly, whether the Western-Arab-Turkish alliance goes forward with its military operation against Syria.

US-Russian concurrence on a plan for Assad’s removal could avert the operation. The failure of their talks would spell a worsening of the Syrian crisis and precipitate Western-Arab military intervention, which according to military sources in the Gulf is scheduled for launch Saturday, June 30.

Muslim Brotherhood Looks To Restore Islamic Caliphate After Egyptian Victory

http://www.radicalislam.org

The Muslim Brotherhood leadership in Egypt held a secret meeting last week in anticipation of Mohammed Morsi’s expected presidential victory. According to the Arabic report, discovered by the Investigative Project on Terrorism, the leaders drew up the “Jazira Plan” to Islamize Egypt and pave the way for the resurrection of the Caliphate.

The “Jazira Plan” was personally approved by Mohammed Badi, the Supreme Leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, the report states. Among the first steps is to “replace the nation anthem with the so-called anthem of the Islamic Caliphate.”

Police uniforms will be swapped out for “Islamic garb.” The Ministry of Information will be disbanded and replaced by a new office that will “publish Islamic heritage only” and regulate the culture. The memorization of Quranic verses will be required for students to advance academically.

The name of the plan is telling. Jazira is Arabic for “island” or “peninsula.” The report states that it is referring to the entirety of the Arabian Peninsula. This is not a plan for Egypt; it’s a regional plan. If the report is accurate, the Muslim Brotherhood is already thinking ahead towards a Caliphate.

This isn’t news to close observers of the Brotherhood. One of the group’s spokesmen said in February, “Concerning the Islamic caliphate, this is our dream, and we hope to achieve it…our first goal is the renaissance of Egypt, then the Arab world and then the Islamic world. This will come gradually.”

A hardline cleric named Safwat Hegazy spoke at a campaign rally for Morsi. He declared, “We are seeing the dream of the Islamic Caliphate coming true at the hands of Mohammed Morsi” and “The capital of the Caliphate and the United Arab States is Jerusalem, God willing.”

This hope sounds fantastical to most Westerners, including FOX News Channel’s Shepard Smith, but the Arab Spring makes this seem achievable to Islamists.

Tunisian President Ben Ali was overthrown in 2011 and the Islamist Ennahda Party won. Its secretary-general and current Prime Minister, Hamadi Jebali, said in November, “My brothers, you are at a historic moment in a new cycle of civilisation, God willing. We are in sixth caliphate, God willing.”

A Hamas official spoke at the same event. The Ennahda Party reacted to the subsequent outcry by saying that his words were misrepresented and he was talking about “good governance and a break with corruption…not the establishment of an Islamic regime.”

It’s easy to see why the Brotherhood is talking about a Caliphate. The Islamists won the elections in Tunisia and Egypt and are expected to win Libya’s next month. The Brotherhood affiliate, Islah, is the most powerful party in Yemen.

The Sudanese regime says it is instituting Sharia law but still may fall to an Islamist revolution. The Syrian dictatorship might be overthrown by Brotherhood-supported rebels. Turkey is now under Islamist leadership. Qatar is subsidizing the Brotherhood’s rise and Saudi Arabia remains a theocracy influenced by the Wahhabists.

The Brotherhood’s first order of business is to implement Sharia law in Egypt. The Brotherhood operates under a doctrine that it calls “gradualism.” In December, Supreme Guide Badi said that there are six phases to the Brotherhood methodology: Sharia law on the individual level; Sharia law on the family unit; Sharia law on the society; Sharia law on the government; the resurrection of the Caliphate and lastly, “mastership of the world.”

The Brotherhood will declare that it is democratic throughout this process, but, as top Brotherhood cleric Sheikh Yousef al-Qaradawi explains, “Our democracy is different.” The Brotherhood is for a “genuine type of democracy, for a society driven by the laws of Sharia that is compatible with the values of freedom, human rights, justice and equity.” The use of these terms comforts the West and non-Islamists, but mean something different to Islamists.

One question moving forward will be how the Brotherhood’s Caliphate agenda clashes with Iran’s Shiite Crescent agenda. The sides are already in conflict in Syria. The relationship between the Arab Islamists led by the Brotherhood and the Turkish Islamists further needs to be understood.

The Turkish and Arab Islamists are on the same side in Syria but the Muslim Brotherhood condemned Prime Minister Erdogan when he told Egypt to adopt a secular constitution when he visited the country. “[W]e do not think that he or his country alone should be leading the region or drawing up its future,” a Brotherhood deputy leader retorted.

The Brotherhood shouldn’t plan too far ahead, though. The truth is that the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces still holds the most power in Egypt. The Islamists will need more than the presidency to make their dream come true. The next step in Egypt’s future is the writing of a constitution. The fate of Egypt, and perhaps the region, hangs in the balance.

Muslims Hurl Rocks, Concrete, Eggs at Christians and No Arrests Dearborn, Michigan has the largest Muslim population of any other US city.

Obama Touts Middle Name to Muslims In Michigan

posted on June 30, 2012 by Da Tagliare

Muslims Hurl Rocks, Concrete, Eggs at Christians and No Arrests

Dearborn, Michigan has the largest Muslim population of any other US city. 

 In May of this year, Hamtramck High School in Dearborn held a girl only prom so that Muslim girls could attend.  Muslim girls and boys are not allowed to socialized and dance together at the same events, so catering to Islamic religious requests, the school held the prom and no one complained about separation of church and state.

On April 18, 2012, President Barack Obama made a point to stop and speak in Dearborn.  When he greeted the crowd, he emphasized his middle name Hussein to the crowd who cheered when he did.

It was obvious that he was playing his name to the largely Muslim crowd in Dearborn.  He deliberately emphasized his name, common in Muslim circles, in such a way as to tell the crowd that he was one of them.   This is what he said:

“Ladies and Gentlemen it’s good to be in Dearborn.  It is good to be back in the Motor City…I see a lot of folks here who worked tirelessly on my 2008 campaign.  Let’s face it.  You did not do it because you thought this was going to be a cakewalk.  When you decide to support a candidate named Barack HUSSEIN Obama you know the odds are not exactly in your favor…”

The same crowd that cheered Obama in April turned ugly against Christians this month when the city was hosting the 2012 Arab International Festival.  

A group of Christians gathered at the festival in hopes of sharing their faith the Muslims that were attending.  At first they used a megaphone so that they could be heard.  Then a Dearborn policeman told the Christians that it was illegal to use the megaphone in public, even though they had been allowed to do so in the past.

You can hear one of the Christians telling the officer that the crowd had been throwing things at them and all he said is that it would be reported, but he did nothing to stop it.  In fact, if you watch the entire video, you will notice the lack of action by law enforcement officers, which leads me to believe that they are probably Muslim as well.

After the Christians stopped using the megaphone, a crowd of Muslims began to react vocally and physically to their presence. In fine Islamic tradition as the religion of peace, the Muslims swore and yelled at the Christians telling them to shut and go home.  In the video below, you will hear vulgar language from the Muslim crowd.

Then as the Christians stood by silently, the Muslim crowd began to throw water bottles, eggs, rocks, pieces of concrete, milk crates and more at them.  You can hear one of the Christians say that he had just been hit in the back of the head with a piece of concrete.

Since Dearborn is fast becoming the Mecca of the United State and has such a large number of Muslims residing there, I would not doubt that some of those same Muslims that were cheering Barack HUSSEIN Obama in April were the same ones attacking the Christians a week ago.  Muslims have less tolerance for Christians and Jews than they have for Muslims. 

And if Obama wants to keep trying to tell everyone that Islam is a religion of peace and that we can all get along, he’s lying to himself and the American people and he’s more than welcome to pack his family, prayer rug and Quran and get the heck out of Dodge, as they say.  I’m sure Iran would more than welcome him into their midst.

The 'Mad Scientist' we only envisioned is now here! Man has crossed the fine line of healing an existing disease in an unborn baby, to creating a new species. In his arrogance, man has precipitated his DOWNWARD spiral, thinking he will be like God. History is repeating itself. Like father like son; Father being Lucifer the Devil and the son being Man, the scientist. (Genesis 3: 1-6). We thought we had seen it all when women would prefer the sordid life of a lesbian rejecting the love of a man for another woman and have a baby through the sperm donated by a man. And now man scientifically interfering with the normal process and creating a baby from three parents. Are we living in the Last days and is God's judgment about to fall on the perverted USA, a nation that should know better? You guessed it. Why do you think God allowed a naive Amateur community Organizer to lead that great nation?. Why? Read your Bible: "For My people have committed two EVILS; they have forsaken Me the Fountain of Living Water, and hewed them out cistern, BROKEN CISTERNS, that can hold no water."

World's First Genetically Modified Babies Born

http://www.dailymail.co.uk

---

The world's first genetically modified humans have been created, it was revealed last night.

The disclosure that 30 healthy babies were born after a series of experiments in the United States provoked another furious debate about ethics.
So far, two of the babies have been tested and have been found to contain genes from three 'parents'.

Fifteen of the children were born in the past three years as a result of one experimental programme at the Institute for Reproductive Medicine and Science of St Barnabas in New Jersey.

The babies were born to women who had problems conceiving. Extra genes from a female donor were inserted into their eggs before they were fertilised in an attempt to enable them to conceive.

Genetic fingerprint tests on two one-year- old children confirm that they have inherited DNA from three adults --two women and one man.

The fact that the children have inherited the extra genes and incorporated them into their 'germline' means that they will, in turn, be able to pass them on to their own offspring.

Altering the human germline - in effect tinkering with the very make-up of our species - is a technique shunned by the vast majority of the world's scientists.

Geneticists fear that one day this method could be used to create new races of humans with extra, desired characteristics such as strength or high intelligence.

Writing in the journal Human Reproduction, the researchers, led by fertility pioneer Professor Jacques Cohen, say that this 'is the first case of human germline genetic modification resulting in normal healthy children'.

Some experts severely criticised the experiments. Lord Winston, of the Hammersmith Hospital in West London, told the BBC yesterday: 'Regarding the treat-ment of the infertile, there is no evidence that this technique is worth doing . . . I am very surprised that it was even carried out at this stage. It would certainly not be allowed in Britain.'

John Smeaton, national director of the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children, said: 'One has tremendous sympathy for couples who suffer infertility problems. But this seems to be a further illustration of the fact that the whole process of in vitro fertilisation as a means of conceiving babies leads to babies being regarded as objects on a production line.

'It is a further and very worrying step down the wrong road for humanity.' Professor Cohen and his colleagues diagnosed that the women were infertile because they had defects in tiny structures in their egg cells, called mitochondria.

They took eggs from donors and, using a fine needle, sucked some of the internal material - containing 'healthy' mitochondria - and injected it into eggs from the women wanting to conceive.

Because mitochondria contain genes, the babies resulting from the treatment have inherited DNA from both women. These genes can now be passed down the germline along the maternal line.

A spokesman for the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), which regulates 'assisted reproduction' technology in Britain, said that it would not license the technique here because it involved altering the germline.

Jacques Cohen is regarded as a brilliant but controversial scientist who has pushed the boundaries of assisted reproduction technologies.

He developed a technique which allows infertile men to have their own children, by injecting sperm DNA straight into the egg in the lab.

Prior to this, only infertile women were able to conceive using IVF. Last year, Professor Cohen said that his expertise would allow him to clone children --a prospect treated with horror by the mainstream scientific community.

'It would be an afternoon's work for one of my students,' he said, adding that he had been approached by 'at least three' individuals wishing to create a cloned child, but had turned down their requests.

Sorry Dear Islamists...Only Almighty God Jehovah the El Shaddai is "More Than Enough". He is Great and there is NO-ONE like unto Him. He declared: "Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the First and the Last (Allah, Shiva, Buddha, Gia, Odin - All came too late. They don't count); and beside ME there is NO God." (Isaiah 44:6) See Isaiah 40:28 and Deuteronomy 4: 35. He is Jehovah Jirah, the Lord Who Provided for Himself a Sacrifice when HE sent His Only begotten Son Yeshua Ha Masciah (Jesus the Christ) to die for the sins of the world, including all the murder, killing, rape and thuggery taking place in the Middle East), Jehovah Shalom, Who is the Lord our Peace (No Sword), Jehovah Rapha, Rophe, Rophika (the Lord our Physician Who heals and continues giving us health), Jehovah Shammah (the Lord is here and present with us), Jehovah Nissi (the Lord our Banner Who fights our battles... not with the sword but with the breath of His mouth and the 'sword of the Spirit - the Word of God'), Jehovah Raah, Rohi (the Lord our Shepherd - Jesus the Good Shepherd Who gave His life for His sheep including Muslims who repent and turn to Him for forgiveness and salvation), Jehovah Tsidkenu (the Lord our Righteousness) We have no righteousness of our own. As Adam's sins were imputed to the human race making us all sinners, our sins were imputed to and laid upon Jesus Christ, the Son of God, on the cross and He in turn gave us (imputed) to us His Own Righteousness), Jehovah M' Kaddesh (the Lord our Sanctification). The problems facing Islam is that Allah came too late, he only understands Arabic and he had no son, only three daughters! Jesus said: Ye shall KNOW the truth and the TRUTH shall make you free." (John 8: 32) There is an amazing revival going on in the Middle East. Great numbers of Muslims are secretly receiving Jesus Christ and turning away from Satan's power unto Jesus Christ. Something very powerful will shortly happen that will open their eyes to the truth and when the Muslims receive Jesus Christ as their Lord, Saviour, Master and God, they will become flaming Evangelists for our Lord! What will happen we do not know, but can you imagine the atomic bomb in the hands of Iranian crazies? May God send a gracious revival of His love, mercy and grace SOON.! - Pastor Max Solbrekken

Allahu Akbar’: Shock Video Shows Muslims Allegedly ‘Stoning’ Christian Protesters In…Michigan

http://www.theblaze.com

Please Note - Offensive Language Contained In This Clip - Proceed With Caution

The conservative preoccupation with presenting Sharia law as a threat to the United States’ culture as well as its national security has long been an unwarranted source of liberal derision. They may want to rethink their attitude after this story.

Recently, the city of Dearborn, Michigan, hosted the 2012 Arab International Festival. Naturally enough, the event drew demonstrators, specifically a group of Christian protesters who wanted to voice their discontent with what they saw as the predominately Muslim character of the event.

Whatever you may think of this motive, the results of the crowds behavior were unquestionably shocking.

In a video posted by Gateway Pundit early this morning, protesters were depicted as being battered by a constant hail of thrown debris, including water bottles and possibly even stones. Skip to nine minutes into the following video to see the “stoning” portion where large, grey projectiles that look very much like rocks are tossed into the air at the demonstrators as the crowd screams “Allahu Akbar” and closes in:

Let me repeat: Christians were allegedly stoned and forced into retreat by an angry mob of Arabs in Dearborn, Michigan. Whether you find the protesters methods themselves distasteful, it would be alarming indeed to think this reaction was warranted.

We can only hope that no one was hurt, and that the people allegedly throwing the items will be brought to justice. However, given the inability of the cameramen to capture the faces of their assailants, we have our doubts.

Readers might recognize one of the police officers identified in the video. At about the 11-minute mark, it appears Deputy Chief Mike Jaafer steps in to talk to the Christian protesters:

If Jaafer looks familiar, that’s because he was one of the stars of the now-cancelled TLC show “All American Muslim.”

The Obama administration reeks of criminality. Richard Nixon's Watergate cover-up was peanuts in comparison to Obama's Security Leaks and Holder's Criminal Contempt of Congress and lying.

HOLDER IN CRIMINAL CONTEMPT OF                                                                 CONGRESS; 17 DEMS SUPPORT

 House Votes To Hold Holder In Criminal Contempt of Congress 255-67

The U. S. House of Representatives, after 18 months of investigation and stonewalling by the Obama Justice Department have voted 255-67 to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in criminal contempt of Congress. Holder becomes the first sitting attorney general to be held in contempt.

Looks like the Obama administration has a first for everything.

Fox News reports:  The vote was preceded by a heated floor debate.

“It’s important to remember how we got here,” House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said during a speech ahead of the vote. “The Justice Department has not provided the facts and information we requested. … It’s our constitutional duty to find out.”

The GOP-led House took the step over the alleged failure to provide additional information about the failed gun-running operation known as Fast and Furious which was run by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives — a division of the Justice Department led by Holder.

Democrats walked out of the chamber ahead of the vote.

Nancy Pelosi declared, “What is happening is shameful!” I’d say it was no more shameful than the former Communist Speaker of the House wanting people to pass a health care bill to find out what is in it. At least in this issue there was clear evidence of contempt and you didn’t have to vote in order to see the contempt of Eric Holder.

The vote was bi-partisan as 17 Democrats voted with Republicans in favor of contempt for Holder.

Darrell Issa, Chairman of the House Oversight Committee tried to eliminate a vote on the floor of the House earlier, but Holder was uncooperative. Over one thousand more documents have been requested which Holder fails to provide.

The House proceeded with the vote after Holder continued to show that he would be unmoved.

Lawmakers also voted against a proposal to return the matter to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee put forth by Rep. John dingell (D-MI).

Bible Predicted Date Of Israel's Return

http://www.wnd.com

---

The author of “Covenant: G-d’s Plan for Israel in the Last Days,” a book by Baruch Battlestein published in Italy, cites prophecies by Ezekiel and Moses that pinpoint with precision the date of Israel’s return to the land in May 1948.

“Was May 14, 1948, chosen by G-d as the exact day in time to resurrect the nation of Israel, or was it just some random date in human history?” Battlestein asks. “Could it be possible that this exact date was prophesied thousands of years before in Scripture?”

Battlestein cites three verses to reach his conclusion that the date of Israel’s return to the land after 1,900 years was indeed prophesied accurately.

The first is Ezekiel 37:21-22: “And say unto them, ‘Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land: And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.’”

This verse, Battlestein points out, shows “that it was the will of the Lord to bring them back to their own land and make them one nation in the land.”

The second citation of interest is Leviticus 26:23-24: “And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary unto me; Then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.”

“As a stand-alone verse this is very strange, and when applying it to the history of Israel it seems impossible to fully understand,” writes the author. “However, when we read the Book of Ezekiel we find another strange prophecy that leads us back to G-d’s prophecy in Leviticus. It is through these prophecies that we come to an understanding that May 14, 1948, was the exact date chosen by G-d for the resurrection of Israel thousands of years before it took place.”

That second Ezekiel citation is Ezekiel 4:4-6: “Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity. For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel. And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.”

“In this strange prophecy, Ezekiel is commanded to first lay on his left side for 390 days and then on his right side for 40 days, for a total of 430 days, as punishment for the iniquities of the house of Israel,” explains Battlestein.

“We are told that this punishment represents one day for each year. Taken alone, the prophecies in Leviticus and Ezekiel do not take on any specific significance. However, when we combine them, the results are astonishing.”

He continues: “G-d decreed to Israel a total of 430 years of punishment for her sins against Him. That punishment consisted of physical removal from the land G-d had promised His people. Israel’s captivity in Babylon was exactly 70 years as prophesied by the prophet Jeremiah (Jeremiah 25:11-12; 29:10). Therefore, the first 70 years of Israel’s punishment was completed when the Babylonian captivity ended.

By the decree of King Cyrus, conquerer of Babylon, the Jews were set free from their captivity in the year 538 B.C. The year 538 B.C. therefore becomes the base year with which we begin our calculations: 430 years minus 70 year captivity equals 360 years of remaining punishment to come.”

That’s where the Leviticus prophecy kicks in, says Battlestein. The 360 years needed to be multiplied by seven, for a total of 2,520 years.

Using the 360-day Hebrew calendar, that totals 907,200 days. When converted to the 365-day calendar, the 2,520 years or 907,200 days becomes 2,485 years and five months or 2,485.5 years and months. If you subtract 538 years B.C. you get 1,947 years and five months.

Battlestein reminds that there was no year zero.

“Therefore, the year 1,947.5 we call the year 1948.5,” he explains. “So exactly 1,947.5 years after 538 B.C. we come to the year 1948.5,” he writes. “May is the fifth month of the modern calendar, and on May 14, 1948, Israel arose from the ashes of extinction to become a nation!”

Battlestein is a messianic Jew who lived in Israel until moving to the U.S. He is the author of several books.

Is it 'AMATEUR HOUR' again at the White House, doing anything to get those large homosexual donations or is it the 'Real Obama' showing his disgust for everything the USA has held dear for more than 2 centuries?

His position on homosexuals in the Boy Scouts is disgusting.!!! - Pastor Max Solbrekken

Chuck Norris Chops White House Over Boy Scouts Policy

Wednesday, 27 Jun 2012 12:08 PM

By Newsmax Wires

Conservative actor Chuck Norris has harsh words for the Obama administration over the Boy Scouts of America’s (BSA’s) policy concerning gays.

The Scouts forbid "open or avowed" homosexuals from occupying leadership roles in its Scouting program.

Norris, writing for AmmoLand.com, speculates that the White House influenced BSA board member James Turley in his promise this month to work within the BSA to reverse its policy excluding gays. Turley is CEO of accounting titan Ernst & Young.

“Is it a coincidence that Turley is in tight cahoots with the White House and that he is the only BSA national board member in 100 years to oppose its pro-traditional family stance?” Norris writes in his column titled "Is Obama Creating a Pro-Gay Boy Scouts of America?"

In light of Turley’s announcement that he’s leaving his position at Ernst & Young next year, the “Walker, Texas Ranger” star writes, “Is it a coincidence that Turley just announced his resignation as CEO of Ernst & Young and that he is now offering the White House a parting pro-gay BSA gift in gratitude for all its presidential favors to him and Ernst & Young over the past few years?”

Norris goes after Obama too — for keeping his distance from the BSA. "Hasn’t America reached a new low in its history when its president (and the honorary president of the BSA!) distances himself and his administration from the Boy Scouts of America yet invites groups such as the Secular Student Alliance to participate in its faith and college missions?"

It is almost eerie, isn't it? Is History repeating itself? Are we witnessing something so monumental that most people couldn't or wouldn't believe it until it has happened.!!! Is Satan making his last stand against Christ by seeking to enslave America - the bastion of freedom - in order to make an end run to destroy the testimony of the risen Lord Jesus Christ, before his final push to inhabit a loyal earthling through which to show his enormous influence in the earth using his surrogates in politics, religion, finance, drugs, alcohol, prostitution, gambling, conflicts, wars, religious persecution, martyrdom and death. Isn't it time for an old fashioned Spirit-filled heaven sent revival of righteousness, prayer and Godly living coupled with signs, wonders and miracles from the hand of God in Jesus Christ's Holy and marvellous name? - Pastor Max Solbrekken

Obama to Court: Drop Dead

Posted on June 26, 2012 by Conservative Byte

No kidding.

Within hours of the Supreme Court’s decision on the Arizona immigration law — leaving in place a core section of the law that allows local law enforcement to continue checking the immigration status of anyone suspected of being an illegal — the Obama administration has just said it will no longer enforce the law.

Fox News reports that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security — that would be Secretary Janet “Big Sis” Napolitano — has just announced that the Obamites are “suspending a key program that allowed state and local law enforcement to enforce federal immigration law.”

In other words, they didn’t like the Court’s ruling so — they simply will not enforce the law because they don’t like it.

Who am I?

I was born in one country, raised in another. My father was born in another country. I was not his only child. He fathered several children with numerous women.

I became very close to my mother, as my father showed no interest in me. My mother died at an early age from cancer. Although my father deserted me and my mother raised me, I later wrote a book idolizing my father, not my mother.

Later in life, questions arose over my real name. My birth records were sketchy. No one was able to produce a legitimate, reliable birth certificate. I grew up practicing one faith but converted to Christianity, as it was widely accepted in my new country, but I practiced non-traditional beliefs and didn't follow Christianity, except in the public eye under scrutiny.

I worked and lived among lower-class people as a young adult, disguising myself as someone who really cared about them. That was before I decided it was time to get serious about my life and embarked on a new career.

I wrote a book about my struggles growing up. It was clear to those who read my memoirs that I had difficulties accepting that my father abandoned me as a child.

I became active in local politics in my 30's; then, with help behind the scenes, I literally burst onto the scene as a candidate for national office in my 40s.

They said I had a golden tongue and could talk anyone into anything. I had a virtually non-existent resume, little work history, and no experience in leading a single organization.

Yet I was a powerful speaker and citizens were drawn to me, as though I were a magnet and they were small roofing tacks. I drew incredibly large crowds during my public appearances. This bolstered my ego.

At first, my political campaign focused on my country's foreign policy... I was very critical of my country in the last war, and seized every opportunity to bash my country.

But what launched my rise to national prominence were my views on the country's economy. I pretended to have a really good plan on how we could do better, and every poor person would be fed and housed for free.

I knew which group was responsible for getting us into this mess. It was the free market, banks and corporations. I decided to start making citizens hate them and, if they became envious of others who did well, the plan was clinched tight.

I called mine "A People's Campaign". That sounded good to all people. I was the surprise candidate because I emerged from outside the traditional path of politics and was able to gain widespread popular support.

I knew that, if I merely offered the people 'hope', together we could change our country and the world.

So, I started to make my speeches sound like they were on behalf of the downtrodden, poor, ignorant to include "persecuted minorities". My true views were not widely known, and I kept them unknown, until after I became my nation's leader.

I had to carefully guard reality, as anybody could have easily found out what I really believed, if they had simply read my writings and examined those people associated with. I'm glad they didn't.

Then I became the most powerful man in the world. And then world learned the truth.

Who am I?

Dear Friends: It is drawing ever closer to the final chapter of man's intolerance toward his fellowman because of his rejection of Almighty God and His laws. In His rebellion against the Almighty God and Jesus Christ the Creator of all things including life, puny, ignorant and arrogant man has tried again and again to create a world of love, peace and tranquility. Instead we have created monsters like Nero, Alexander, Khan, Napoleon, Mohammed, Hilter, Stalin, Mao, Khomeini & Osama bin laden. Are the 10 countries below named a harbinger, a sign of and the beginning of the prophesied 10 Kingdom Confederacy that will be in play at the Final Conflict, the Battle of Armageddon? Only God knows! Let`s all be ready, labouring in His vineyard and winning precious souls for our Lord & Saviour Jesus Christ before our Lord returns! - Pastor Max Solbrekken

10 Countries For A United States Of Europe

http://www.presseurop.eu

---

Ten EU foreign ministers participating in a “study group for the future of Europe” aim to exert pressure to transform the EU into a federation along the lines of the US.

Together they have prepared what the front-page headline in Die Presse describes as a “Plan for transformation into a European state.” On 19 June, the ten ministers presented an initial report to the EU officials who will likely benefit the most from the initiative: Commission President José Manuel Barroso, European Council President Herman Van Rompuy, European Central Bank President Mario Draghi and Eurogroup President Jean-Claude Juncker. 

The “study group for the future” initiated by Germany's Guido Westerwelle, which does not currently include an official French representative, proposes to put an end to the dominance of national government leaders and give greater authority to the European Commission – in particular the European Commission president, who will be elected by universal suffrage and granted the right to form a “governmental team”, making him or her the most powerful politician in Europe.

The group also recommends replacing European councils of ministers and heads of state with a chamber “of states” in the European parliament. National competencies, most notably the management of borders, defence and public spending will be transferred to the federation, “making membership of the euro irreversible.”

Die Presse argues that it is not surprising to see diplomats from countries which have lost all of their influence since the Treaty of Nice, signed in 2001, and even more so since the outbreak of the crisis, make a bid to play a more important role. However, the daily concludes –

A clearly defined democratic system resembling a state would probably not be in accord with the mood of several sections of the population. 

But everyone who wants to safeguard the euro, the single market and political stability, while preventing a widening wealth gap between the North and the South and a reinforcement of nationalist trends will ultimately accept that it is the best way forward.

The whole world is ganging up on Israel and Almighty God is laughing at the dummies who hate His Chosen People. The Bible says: "He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision." (Psalm 2: 4). While the Arabs who hate Israel, fight each other in their inflamed terrorist mode of fanatical religious/political jealousy, hate and rioting, the rational, intelligent peace loving Israelis are becoming the envy of the world and soon one of the richest among nations. Praise be unto the Lord God of Israel for His mercy endureth forever. These powerful words are found 26 times in Psalm 136. My advice to the impoverished Americans, please teach Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton and the dozy European Leaders to begin wearing skull caps on Saturday and learn how to honour P.M. Binyamin Netanyahou. We will all need the Jews when they rise to world status. - Pastor Max Solbrekken

Tensions Boil As Israeli Oil Riches Grow

http://www.omegaletter.com

Israel’s once hidden oil riches are now certain to be so large its treasures could make it the richest oil country in the world. And, its neighbors are not only noticing, they’re boiling mad.

It was just forty years ago when Golda Meir, the former prime minister of Israel once famously quipped, “Why did Moses lead us to the one place in the Middle East without oil?”

Well Prime Minister, Moses turned out to have a pretty good eye for what a promised land might look like.

Since oil was first discovered in the Middle East, Israel has been cut off from the world’s exploration resources because of its Arab neighbors. No major oil company would dare explore there in fear of an Arab backlash. Over time technologies in oil exploration have improved and international experts have noticed Israel’s potential.

In the past, oil-exploration adventurers would visit Israel, some of them reminiscent of Indiana Jones, arguing enthusiastically that there had to be legendary oil reserves in the promised land. The adventurers picked their drilling sites according to concealed hints in the Tanach, especially Yehezkel, but the drillings ended in disappointment. The legend of oil riches in Israel turned into a cruel joke. They simply didn’t know what they were looking for and didn’t have the proper technology to find it.

But, in the last three years Israel has discovered one mega-discovery after another. First, it discovered 1.5 billion barrels of oil onshore at Rosh Ha'Ayin, located about 10 miles inland from the Tel Aviv coastline. It was a small but important find that sparked a flurry of exploration activity.

Then, a big one followed by another – both are noteworthy, and rare, and are the largest finds anywhere in the last decade. US Geological Survey (USGS) estimates, the entire Leviathan Basin holds 1.7 billion barrels of recoverable oil and 700 billion cubic meters of recoverable gas.

Expert surveys for the Tamar field conducted by the U.S. petroleum consultants Netherland, Sewell & Associates indicate that the field contains proven reserves of 217 billion cubic meters of gas.

And then another find. It turns out that Israel has the second-biggest oil shale deposits in the world, outside the US:

"We estimate that there is the equivalent of 250 billion barrels of oil here. To put that in context, there are proven reserves of 260 billion barrels of oil in Saudi Arabia, says Dr. Harold Vinegar, the former chief scientist of Royal Dutch Shell."

Let’s do the math. That’s 250 billion in shale oil, 3.2 billion in conventional oil in estimated reserves, or enough oil to match that of Saudi-Arabia. Plus, that’s 50 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, giving it about 10% of the entire world’s gas reserves -- all while Israel’s exploration activities are just beginning.

I’d say most rational people would say this is nothing short of a miracle. But one man’s miracle is not a miracle to another. Economic miracles tend to upset a lot of sovereigns eager to get their share – whether they can legitimately claim it or not. The backlash has begun and the geopolitical crisis now playing out will be worthy of the most serious prophetic predictions.

Israel, whose exploration is the most advanced, is making plenty of new discoveries. Cyprus, too, is on the cusp of energy riches and (Iranian backed) Lebanon is anxious to launch exploration of its waters.

As would have it, all this excitement is exacerbating old rivalries between Israel and Lebanon and between Turkey and Greece, with Russia, Syria, Egypt and the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip likely to get drawn into some serious drama.

Worse yet, Russia is determined to rival Turkish ambitions for regional influence and cannot help being dragged into the conflict.

Unfortunately, Israel is seemingly giving Russia the cold shoulder. As late as last week, the Russian government-backed oil producer Rosneft held consultations on possible participation in the development of Israel's offshore natural gas fields, but emerged from the negotiations with no "effective offers." This geopolitical snub won’t go unnoticed by Russia.

Last month, Turkey, a former strategic ally of Israel and now one of its most strongest critics, warned other major international companies seeking exploration licenses from the Greek Cypriot government, (Israel's new ally), to stay away. Predictably, Israel responded by dispatching military protection to the seas over its oil interests.

Turkey has now warned it will stop Israel from unilaterally exploiting gas resources in the eastern Mediterranean and suggests it is prepared to respond with force to make its point.

And that, according to geopolitical experts poses a direct challenge to U.S. policy. The U.S. has a strong interest in eastern Mediterranean with countries finding and exploiting offshore reserves. But the U.S. has its hands-full politically, and is ill-prepared financially to support any new conflict. It currently borrows every dollar it needs to run its military and the American people aren’t going to favor any new conflict they have to pay for – even if it were necessary to protect Israel.

It is the long-running issue of war-divided Cyprus between Turkey and Greece that is the real key to understanding Turkey's squabbles with Israel.

Here’s why. 

Cyprus was split into Greek and Turkish zones when the Turks invaded in 1974 and seized the northern one-third of the Cyprus island.

Recent discoveries of natural gas are thus encouraging Turkey to renew its diplomatic campaign on behalf of “Turkish Cypriots" in the so-called Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Why? For the gas and oil it claims to own. Thus, Turkey is launching its own exploration in and around Cyprus and any major strikes it may make (and it will) will only fuel the crisis. So Turkey and Israel aren’t seeing eye-to-eye and are willing to fight over it.

So, the next big boom (sorry for the pun) is firmly centered on Cyprus.

Tensions recently escalated when the Greek Cypriot government (the legitimate Cypress government recognized by the U.N.) started pushing to open up its Aphrodite field off the southern coast. It’s a whopper that's likely to match the Israelis' biggest field, the Leviathan. Worse yet, it’s probably a geologic extension of the Israeli-owned Leviathan.

Aphrodite contains an estimated 22 trillion cubic feet of gas and sizeable oil deposits as well.

On May 19th, Turkey drew a line in the sand. "Turkey will not allow any activity in these fields," the Turkish Foreign Ministry declared. But 15 companies and consortiums, including Russia's Novatec, Eni of Italy, France's Total and Petronas of Malaysia are all seeking licenses to drill in Aphrodite and 11 other exploration blocks off (Israel friendly) southern Cyprus.

So get this picture into your mind. There’s a crowd forming that could turn into an angry mob with everyone wanting to plunder Israel’s newly found riches.

The Israeli’s and Cyprus plan is to funnel their gas through a joint pipeline through Greece to Western Europe to reduce Europe’s dependence on Russia for most of its gas. Mr. Putin, the Russian President, isn’t happy about the possibilities of losing a big customer for its natural gas production.

On the other hand, Turkey is determined to restore it's historical influence across the Middle East and Central Asia by applying pressure to transform its resource-poor country into the key energy hub between east and the west – a direct challenge to an Israel/Cypress plan to pipe oil and gas through Greece on to Italy to fuel the rest of Europe.

That increases the stakes in the eastern Mediterranean, with Russia, one of the world's top oil and gas powers, trying to find a way to cash in on the boom.

Moscow is nervous about Turkey's ambitious regional plans. Russian President Putin also intends to restore Moscow's Cold War influence in the region.

That places Russia and Turkey on opposite sides, including in the Syrian civil war. Moscow backs the Damascus regime, a longtime client; Turkey supports the rebels. And, neither appreciates Israel’s newly found oil power, which threatens the entire eastern Mediterranean’s balance of power.

Moscow is not without some links to the riches. It has strong links with the Greek Cypriots but its offers to help Cyprus is motivated in part by the prospect of losing Russia's naval base at the Syrian port of Tartus, it's only toehold in the Mediterranean. If the Syrian regime falls, Russia loses its military base in the region. So it's seeking an alternative base for its Black Sea Fleet in Cyprus – the epicenter of the oil discoveries.

Syria too, has great riches off its coast; a fact not lost on Russia. If the Syrian regime falls it is certain that Russia’s desire to pick up the pieces (for its own) will be irresistible.

In summary, we have a newly enriched Israel powerful enough to completely change the geopolitics of the Middle East on one side. On the other, we have Turkey, determined to cash in – with force if necessary – to establish its own claim to riches while Russia, with its impoverished Muslim regional allies seeking attention. Then there’s Persian-backed Lebanon, in need of development funding for its significant rich fields just offshore of it’s own border.

As the old saying goes, “the best way to get attention is to start a fight.”
And, that’s exactly what will happen.

“It’s going to eventually be exposed,” predicts Coburn, who is a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. “The question is ‘can they put it off until after the election? I suspect that’s why the president issued the executive order.”

Coburn: There's 'Fire, Not Just Smoke' at Heart of Fast and Furious Cover-Up

Thursday, 21 Jun 2012 09:25 PM

By Paul Scicchitano and John Bachman

One of the U.S. Senate’s leading experts on judicial matters and homeland security tells Newsmax that President Barack Obama’s invocation of executive privilege is a clear signal that there’s something the administration is trying to hide at the heart of the Fast and Furious gun-running scandal.

“There’s fire there. It’s not just smoke, and there’s no other reason to have that,” said Sen. Tom Coburn in an exclusive Newsmax interview. “There is legitimate cause to be concerned about the untruthfulness of the attorney general — and his lack of forthrightness with oversight committees that are studying this.”

Despite the president’s assertion of executive privilege, Coburn believes that the information will ultimately find its way into the public eye.

“It’s going to eventually be exposed,” predicts Coburn, who is a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. “The question is ‘can they put it off until after the election? I suspect that’s why the president issued the executive order.”

A possible U.S. House vote is due next week on whether to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for withholding certain documents from lawmakers. The documents relate to a months-long investigation into a controversial gun sting that allowed hundreds of weapons to reach violent Mexican drug cartels.

The controversial Operation Fast and Furious, which the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives began in 2009, became public after guns linked to the program were found at the site where a U.S. Border Patrol agent was killed.

On Wednesday, President Obama asserted executive privilege over some of the documents, meaning the Justice Department could withhold specified materials. But the Republican-led House Oversight Committee voted the same day to recommend a contempt citation to the full House, setting up a possible vote on whether to cite Holder for contempt.

In a wide-ranging interview, Coburn also laid out the crisis behind Obamacare and discussed the fixes that will be necessary to America’s health care system no matter how the Supreme Court rules in a much-anticipated decision on the Affordable Health Care Act due next week.

Coburn, an Oklahoma Republican who happens to be a practicing physician, said that soaring healthcare costs will only be controlled by connecting “payment with purchase” — a lesson we can take from the simple-living Amish.

“Nobody knows what the Supreme Court’s going to do. But what has to happen, if you want to control healthcare costs in this country, you have to reconnect payment with purchase,” insisted Coburn.

“Our problem in our country today — whether you’re on Medicare or Medicaid, employer-paid, or an insurance policy with a low deductible — is you’re assuming that somebody else is paying your bill — and they’re not.”

That’s where the Amish come in, a group of people who — undoubtedly with exceptions — tend to forego traditional healthcare insurance, as Coburn points out in his recent book,“The Debt Bomb: A Bold Plan to Stop Washington from Bankrupting America.”

A three-time cancer survivor himself, Coburn said that the Amish are the best purchasers of healthcare that he knows. “They ask a question about what it costs. They try to pay cash in advance to get a discount,” he explained.

“If you’re going to have to do a test, they want to know where you can do that test cheaply,” he said. “If you’re going to do a test, they want to know what you’re going to do based on the outcome of the test. So they are actively involved in purchasing their healthcare and paying for it.”

That’s a lesson that all Americans need to learn, even when an insurance company is paying for medical services. “If that was not so expensive, you’d be getting a whole lot more money in your hourly rate,” he explained. “And so, what we have to do is to use the thing that we use everywhere else in the economy — and that’s market forces to allocate a scarce resource.”

Coburn charges that as much as $1 of every $3 now spent on healthcare in the United States is wasted. “It’s either fraud, wasted, or duplication, or error,” he said. “And if you want to clean that up, what you have to have is a competitive market where I have some connectiveness to what things cost.”

As a physician who specializes in family medicine, obstetrics and the treatment of allergies, Coburn acknowledged that cost is often the last thing that he and his peers think about in treating patients.

“When I’m taking care of a Medicaid patient, there’s no responsibility on me as a physician to be efficient with the tests,” acknowledged Coburn, who has delivered more than 4,000 babies. “I order tests because somebody wants —rather than because they need it. Or I order a test because I might get sued if I didn’t do the test — even though there’s no connection to a lawsuit whatsoever. So we have no responsibility for controlling the costs because we all think somebody else is paying the bill when in fact we’re all paying the bill.”

Coburn, who is one of the Senate’s most vociferous critics of wasteful spending, often introduces amendments to eliminate expenditures that he deems wasteful, such as $20 million included in the Market Access Program this week for the production of a reality television and fashion show in India to promote cotton.

“That doesn’t promote American cotton. That’s the funny thing about it,” he countered, noting that India is the world’s largest producer of cotton. “The goal was to promote cotton but when you do that in India, you’re just throwing $20 million down a rat hole. And we see that all the way across.”

He also questioned funding to help increase sales for a company that makes organic grooming products for dogs, cats and horses — and farm subsidies for those earning more than $1 million a year — a loophole that his colleagues subsequently closed through one of Coburn’s amendments.

“They know how stupid it is when you’re giving wealthy people money to do things that they’re already going to do,” he said. “Last year we paid out $91 million to people who made more than $1 million a year to do conservation projects on their own land, which is in their own best interest anyway.”

Coburn said that while Senate Republicans are committed to making the necessary spending cuts to tackle the burgeoning U.S. debt, they have not seen any signs that President Barack Obama is willing to meet them across the aisle.

“We certainly haven’t seen the president lead on that,” he charged. “We haven’t seen the majority leader in the Senate lead on that.”

But cuts are unavoidable in the end. “We’ve got to do this, whether we want to or not,” he said “The longer we put off solving these problems, the greater the pain’s going to be. And either we’re going to do it or we’re going to be told to do it by the people that are loaning us the money.”
