Former SEAL: Time To ‘Name Names And Hold People Accountable’

Flopping Aces

The September 11th, 2012 attacks on the State Department compound in Benghazi, Libya is important, and should be studied because in the big picture it represents a failed foreign policy that spans across both Bush and Obama Presidencies.

America does not have a clear strategic objective when it comes to foreign diplomacy, and in fact our current foreign affairs are rife with hypocrisy. Two clear examples of this that we are supposedly in a “War on Terror,” yet we clandestinely support terrorists like MEK in Iran, and weapons transfers into Syria. The latter is sure to put weapons into Syria freedom fighters, some who are engaged under the al Qaeda flag.  How long will it take for those weapons to be pointed back at US Special Ops forces?

In Libya, Gaddafi was known to be cooperating with the United States behind closed doors. One minute he’s a covert friend, and declared an enemy the next.

“Who in the current administration turned Gaddafi from green to red?”, a senior State Department official said to me. This question and many others still need to be asked.

What ever happened to Nidal Hasan? And what is Education Diplomacy?

Exclusive: Joseph Farah asks why ‘mass-murdering enemy of America is still breathing’

Hasan-283x275[1]WND: Are you one of those Americans who wonders what happened to the Islamist terrorist who massacred U.S. soldiers at Fort Hood more than three years ago?

Or maybe you’re one of those Americans who assumes Maj. Nidal Hasan long ago assumed room temperature after being summarily executed for murdering 13 and wounding more than 32, while screaming “Allahu Akbar,” or “Allah is greatest.”

There hasn’t been much news on the case. The Big Media would obviously like Americans to forget about this case. The government would like you to forget about it, too. In fact, Attorney General Eric Holder declined to press terrorism charges against Hasan, inexplicably labeling the worst terrorist attack in America since 9/11 as a case of “workplace violence.”

As a result of this callous, politically motivated and criminally devious decision, the victims of Hasan’s shooting spree will not be entitled to the benefits of soldiers wounded or killed in the line of duty.

There is some news on the Nidal Hasan front.

Obama Moving To Criminalize Criticism Of Islam

Western Journalism

The whole “conspiracy theory” of the Obama administration being infiltrated by the Muslim Brotherhood, purging government documents critical of Islam, and seeking to criminalize the criticism of Islam is just that—a conspiracy theory—isn’t it?

Sadly, it isn’t.

State Department denies concluding film sparked consulate attack in Libya

Fox News

The State Department denied Tuesday it ever concluded that the deadly  consulate attack Sept. 11 in Libya was an unplanned outburst prompted by an  anti-Islam movie, despite public statements early on by some in the Obama  administration suggesting that was the case.

Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., reacting Wednesday to the latest claims, said he’s  just “at a loss” for why administration officials ever tried to connect the  attack to the film in the first place.

“From the very beginning, everyone knew this was a terrorist attack. I mean,  there’s no question, and that’s why this has been totally bizarre,” said Corker,  who recently returned from Libya.

Media Scrubs Malia Obama Vacation Story

Once again there is a double standard. The WhiteHouse doesn’t want the media talking about Obama’s kids but Obama brings them up all the time on the campaign trail, but here’s my question. Why is that The State Department has stated that due to the violence in Mexico, that Americans should not travel there and yet it’s okay for one of Obama’s kids to go there without either parent? Are the Seceret Service also doubling as a baby-sitter? If so that is an abuse of power but then again so is everything else Obama does. Don’t get me wrong, the kids are not the problem, Obama is. And how many vacations do these people get? Even the military only get 30 days a year.

That’s my opinion anyway.                           1 Dragon

Guilty: Obama Admin Illegally Used U.S. Funds to Promote Abortion in Kenya

Floyd Reports

A new report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) finds the Obama administration gave taxpayer funds to an organization that illegally lobbied Kenya to liberalize its abortion law as the president’s ancestral nation revised its constitution. Moreover, a high-ranking State Department employee stonewalled the investigation.

The Obama administration dedicated at least $18 million to convince Kenyans to ratify the new constitution, which expanded women’s legal right to an abortion.  Although a 1981 law known as the Siljander Amendment specifically states “none of the funds made available under this Act may be used to lobby for or against abortion,” one recipient of U.S. aid pressed the issue anyway.

Security “Gaps” Allow Terrorists To Enter U.S. With Visas

Judicial Watch

It may seem inconceivable but nearly a decade after the worst terrorist attack inU.S.history the government has yet to develop or implement an adequate security program to keep foreign extremists from carrying out a sequel.

Two recent reports illustrate this astounding failure by the government to protect the nation from a catastrophe similar to September 11, 2001. Several of the Middle Eastern terrorists who carried out that horrific foray entered theU.S.legally and remained in the country with expired visas while they planned their sophisticated plots.

With that in mind, Congress allocated huge chunks of money to develop a reliable security system that would prevent a repeat. Incredibly, as the tenth anniversary of 9/11 approaches, critical gaps in the program allow terrorists to continue entering theU.S.It’s as if no lesson has been learned from the tragedies that violently ended the lives of thousands of innocent Americans.

Obama’s Watergate

By Douglas J. Hagmann

Just after 10:00 a.m. on March 23rd, 1973, John Dean, White House counsel to former President Richard M. Nixon advised Nixon of a “a cancer within-close to the presidency, that’s growing. It’s growing daily.” Within the same breath, he advised Nixon that “people are going to start perjuring themselves very quickly that have not had to perjure themselves to protect other people and the like.” That cancer became known as “Watergate,” and eventually led to Nixon’s resignation.

Nearly forty years later, another “scandal,” exponentially larger than Watergate, has the potential to bring down the occupant of the oval office along with other high ranking officials. While no one was murdered as a result of Watergate, two law enforcement officers are dead because of the current “scandal” that is leading closer and closer to the highest levels of the Obama administration, including the Department of Justice and the U.S. State Department.
