Obama Wants To Ban Term "Islamic Extremism"

U.S. President Barack Obama

U.S. President Barack Obama wants the government to stop using the term "Islamic Extremism." Obama is seeking to have it scrubbed from official documents. He most likely wants the public to do the same, as that is how he operates.

You know what. Obama is right. We should not call it "Islamic Extremism." How about "Muslim Extremism" instead.

He also wants the word "Jihad" banned. Maybe he should write an email to terrorists, hit send to all and tell them stop using the term first. At the end of the day, innocent people are violently being killed over twisted, extremist ideology. Employing semantics is not going to fix that.

Obama bans terms `Islam` and `jihad` from U.S. security document

Last update - 12:05 07/04/2010 - President Barack Obama's advisers will remove religious terms such as "Islamic extremism" from the central document outlining the U.S. national security strategy and will use the rewritten document to emphasize that the United States does not view Muslim nations through the lens of terror, counterterrorism officials said.

EDITORIAL: Obama's jihad on 'jihad'

To this president, there's no such thing as an Islamic extremist

President Obama's latest strategic innovation in the war on terrorism is to ignore jihad and maybe it will go away.

The Obama administration is removing terms such as "jihad" and "Islamic extremism" from the U.S. National Security Strategy in an attempt to convince Muslim countries that America doesn't view them solely through the lens of counterterrorism

Obama Makes Secret Visit To Afghanistan

U.S. President Barack Obama made a secret visit to the Middle Eastern nation of Afghanistan, to encourage troops in the region. He needs to remove the troops from the Middle East, as it is accomplishing nothing.

In other news, threats against President Obama continue to pour in, due to last week's passage of his health care bill . If this keeps up, Obama may have to go out dressed like Darth Vader, if it means his clothes would be bulletproof.

U.S. Poll: America's Image Has Declined In The World Since Obama

President Barack Obama

A poll conducted in America offered the opinion, the United States image and standing have declined in the world, since U.S. President Barack Obama has taken office. The poll squarely blamed Democrats for the decline.

Former Republican and U.S. President, George W. Bush did the most damage in this regard, with a war in Iraq that killed over a million civilians and thousands of soldiers from different nations.

However, President Obama is now following suit, via sending more troops to the Middle East, terrible political policies in the area of finance, wild spending initiatives and issuing international snubs of world leaders and monarchs, in incidents that have been widely reported in the press.

The U.S. economy is also intertwined with that of several other nations and President Obama's recording spending is alarming many in international financial circles, as they have invested in America and vice versa. It seems as if every day the public wakes up to news of more spending and it is alarming. The money being thrown around consists of significant sums not easily recouped.

The Justice Department, F.B.I., C.I.A. and N.S.A. are illegally combing emails and wiretapping the phones of politicians and diplomats of foreign countries IN THEIR RESPECTIVE NATIONS, causing massive offense and damaging international relations, as it violates the law in other nations.

Domestic scandals that prominently feature members of the President's cabinet such as Rahm Emanuel, D.O.J. Attorney General, Eric Holder and F.B.I. Director, Robert S. Mueller, are doing Mr. Obama and his administration no favors domestically or internationally.

From a distance, it has the appearance of chaos and confusion, which does not instill confidence. In short, President Obama is getting some very bad advice. Mr. Obama is an intelligent, educated, articulate man. Why he has chosen this path and is listening to certain people, is stupefying.

Carville poll: Majority now say U.S. is less respected than it was two years ago

posted at 8:30 pm on March 8, 2010 by - It's a poll of Americans, not foreigners, so it's not so much evidence that we are less respected than that we perceive ourselves to be. I hope The One finds comfort in that fact when these numbers start to shake out in November.

Devastating.

The Democracy Corps-Third Way survey released Monday finds that by a 10-point margin - 51 percent to 41 percent - Americans think the standing of the U.S. dropped during the first 13 months of Mr. Obama's presidency.

"This is surprising, given the global acclaim and Nobel peace prize that flowed to the new president after he took office," said pollsters for the liberal-leaning organizations.

On the national security front, a massive gap has emerged, with 50 percent of likely voters saying Republicans would likely do a better job than Democrats, a 14-point swing since May. Thirty-three percent favored Democrats…

A May 2009 survey by the pollsters found the public saw the Democratic and Republican parties as equally able to handle national security (41 percent trusted Democrats more, and 43 percent trusted Republicans more.) On conducting the war on terrorism, the two parties were tied at 41 percent...

Iraqi Christians Protest Murders

Christians in Iraq protest

Iraqi Christians have come out in droves to protest the murders of their brothers and sisters in the faith, in the war torn Middle Eastern country.

Muslims have murdered Christians in Iraq, in senseless acts of violence, which does not help their case in the world. May the Christians of Iraq remain peaceful and strong in the faith, knowing that God will give them their reward in heaven. God bless you.

Iraqi Christians protest slayings, Pope concerned

Sun Feb 28, 2010 12:47pm EST

MOSUL, Iraq (Reuters) - At least 1,000 minority Christians, many holding olive branches, marched in protest near the restive city of Mosul on Sunday to urge the Iraqi government to act decisively after a series of killings.

At least eight Christians have been killed in the last two weeks in the turbulent northern city, 390 km (250 miles) north of Baghdad, prompting Pope Benedict to appeal on Sunday for Iraq's Christians to be better protected.

Two of those attacked had gone missing, their bodies later found dumped in the street with gunshot wounds. Others were shot dead in the street, near their homes, or at their place of work.

Some 683 Christian families, or 4,098 people, fled Mosul between February 20 and 27 following the attacks, a United Nations report said on Sunday.

The murders came just weeks before Iraq's March 7 parliamentary election, which has the potential to help cement an end to seven years of war or plunge a still-divided country into a new cycle of violence.

"I appeal to the civil authorities to complete every effort to give security again to the population, and in particular, to the most vulnerable religious minorities," the Pope said in his weekly blessing from Vatican City.

Priests in religious vestments led the protest procession in the Christian town of Hamdaniya, 40 km (25 miles) east of Mosul.

"The blood of innocents screams for terrorism and violence to be stopped," read one banner.

Sunni Islamist insurgents such as al Qaeda have long targeted Christians, Yazidis, Shabaks, and other Iraqi minorities, as well as majority Shi'ites, whom they consider heretics. Christians number an estimated 750,000 in Iraq, a small minority in a country of 28 million...

FBI Director Mueller Rebuffed In Pakistan

Robert S. Mueller

FBI Director and resident racist, Robert S. Mueller, was rebuffed in the Middle East when his request for access to terror suspect, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, was denied by the government of Pakistan. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Why are you even over there, after you brought them all that bad international publicity, for torturing 5 Muslim-Americans that went to Pakistan to allegedly wage Jihad.

There are internationally accepted protocols for interrogating terrorist suspects. They should not have been tortured, as you Mr. Mueller, ordered conduct that blackened the U.S. government's name in the world...again, via violating the Geneva Conventions and international human rights treaties, in what has become a habit for you.

Pakistan said to deny FBI Baradar request

Published: Feb. 25, 2010 at 1:05 AM - ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Feb. 25 (UPI) -- The Pakistani government turned down an FBI request to hand over captured Afghan Taliban commander Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, sources told Dawn newspaper.

Mullah Baradar -- a top Taliban military commander and the group's No. 2 after Taliban chief and founder Mullah Muhammad Omar -- was captured this month in Karachi in a joint U.S.-Pakistani intelligence operation.

The handover request was made by FBI Director Robert Mueller during meetings with officials of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence and other intelligence agencies, Dawn reported, citing sources...

Teacher Kills Herself Over Nude Photos On Facebook

Emma Jones

24-year-old British teacher, Emma Jones, committed suicide, after a reportedly sadistic, vindictive ex-boyfriend, Mr. Brayley, posted nude photos of her on the internet website, Facebook, without her permission.

She was working in the Middle East as a teacher, when she found out what transpired on the social networking site, via a colleague at the school, accusing her of prostitution, after viewing the Facebook site.

Overwhelmed, she called her mother crying, then later committed suicide, unable to cope with what was done to her and the fear she would be jailed in Dubai. If her boyfriend is found liable, he should be imprisoned and fined, as this incident has cost Emma Jones her life.

Poor thing. Suicide is never the answer. Some people are wicked enough to want to harm and push others over the edge, but you can't let them win. You have to regain control of your life and keep going forward. Suing them senseless for violating your rights, doesn't hurt either.

The Judiciary Report has consistently maintained, laws need to be enacted, providing serious criminal penalties and fines, to anyone that uploads nude photos and or videos, of another person without their consent, as it is a vile, inhumane invasion of privacy. The whole practice is lewd and vulgar.

British teacher killed herself after naked photos were posted on Facebook

24th February, 2010 - A British teacher found dead in her Middle Eastern apartment killed herself after a former boyfriend posted naked photographs of her on Facebook, an inquest heard.

Emma Jones, who was teaching in Abu Dhabi at an international school, killed herself after fearing she would be jailed over the indecent photos, Mail Online reported.

The 24-year-old is thought to have drunken poisonous cleaning fluid to take her own life. She was believed to have already started packing to return to Britain, as her passport was found in her jeans pocket.

Her mother Louise Rowlands told the hearing about Emma's worry over the Facebook photos. "He put them on her Facebook and she said she was accused of prostitution by a man working at the school', said Mrs Rowlands.

A man working at the school had allegedly seen the photos and Emma feared that she would be reported to Abu Dhabi authorities.

Emma had been working at the International School of Choueifat in Khalifa City since 2008 and she did not get on well with the man who saw the pictures. Her mother encouraged Miss Jones to return to Britain but Emma was convinced she'd be thrown in jail if she tried to leave.

The ex boyfriend accused of posting the photos, Mr Brayley, denies doing so and said he had never downloaded private pictures of her, he told the inquest in Cardiff...

Osama Bin Laden's Son Talks Jihad And Hollywood

The son of terrorist Osama Bin Laden did an interview recently, discussing his dad and what he believes drives him other than insanity. He stated Osama attacked America, because it is, "Weaker than Israel." He also said "People are saying his dad is a hero" and "who could catch him."

He also offers that his dad, "Doesn't agree with western culture in some way and prefers to use the good things" from it such as weaponry.

However, his Hashish smoking became blatantly evident when he proclaimed George Clooney, pronounced Colooney, a good actor. You and Colooney need to lay off the opium.

Obama Admin Renews Ties With Britain

U.S. President Barack Obama

In the February 10, 2010 article British Government To Release CIA FOIA Documents the Judiciary Report pointed out how unwise it would be for America to severe ties with Britain, as former President George W. threatened, if Freedom of information Act documents in London, England about his CIA rendition and torture program, were made public. The article pointed out the usefulness of MI5 and MI6 to America, in the area of intelligence sharing.

The next day, on February 11, 2010, the C.I.A. released a statement, wisely renewing ties with America's top ally, Britain, mentioning their desire to continue working with MI5 and MI6.

"Gary Berntsen, a former CIA officer who served in the Middle East, said: "The relationship between us and the British is probably the strongest relationship in the world. Neither intelligence service would like the judicial system interfering. The people of the US and especially the officers in the agency are grateful for the UK, grateful for our colleagues in MI5 and MI6. These relationships, they have saved Americans on many, many occasions."

It's about time someone woke up and smelled the Semtex, as Bush's threats were insane and not in America's best interest. Why alienate allies.

When one thinks of how former British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, essentially wrecked his political career to side with Bush during the Iraq war, whose conduct as President amounted to nothing but treason, tyranny, lies and villainy against the U.S. Constitution and democracy on the whole, his threats against Britain were particularly abusive and ungrateful.

MI5 chief denies cover-up claims over detainees

Friday 12 February 2010 08.22 GMT - The head of MI5 last night issued a strong defence of the Security Service, denying that his staff had withheld documents relating to Binyam Mohamed from the parliamentary intelligence and security committee (ISC) or had sought to cover up its involvement in the torture of detainees.

The director general, Jonathan Evans, said that claims by the Master of the Rolls, Lord Neuberger, that there was a "culture of suppression" within the service were "the precise opposite of the truth"...

His defence came as US officials last night played down claims that the appeal court's disclosure of CIA information passed to MI5 will damage intelligence-sharing with Britain, as fresh doubts emerged about the accuracy of information given to MPs.

A White House official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the court decision would not provoke a broad review of intelligence liaison between Britain and the US, because the need for close co-operation was greater now than ever.

Gary Berntsen, a former CIA officer who served in the Middle East, said: "The relationship between us and the British is probably the strongest relationship in the world. Neither intelligence service would like the judicial system interfering. The people of the US and especially the officers in the agency are grateful for the UK, grateful for our colleagues in MI5 and MI6. These relationships, they have saved Americans on many, many occasions."

White House spokesman Ben LaBolt said the US was "deeply disappointed" in the court judgment. "We shared this information in confidence and with certain expectations," he said...
