Jim Sinclair’s Commentary
CIGA Pedro clearly outlines how the demise of the dollar is the demise of much more. Greenspan gave away more than anyone knows.
Gold is your only insurance policy against things we cannot control regardless of the wild fluctuation of the price. We must be our own central bank.
Inflation Inflation Everywhere and Not a Drop to Drink
At last, the doubters have nowhere to hide. The world is starkly revealed as an interconnected political economy force, and not as a disparate grouping of various nations, some authoritarian, some choosing democratically agreed upon policies, creating policy choice and thereby shaping of political outcome. Greece, Ireland, Tunisia, and now, the fulcrum of the Arab world, Egypt, stand as testimony. They are countries caught up in the machinations of a monetary policy to debase the world’s reserve currency.
All “he” wanted was some inflation, a little inflation to get America and the west out of the deflationary spiral caused by the failure of financial instruments (a.k.a. OTC Derivatives) and un-payable government debt – but he can’t get it. Everywhere it rages, but the place he wants it – home. So it erupts in global food prices and manifests itself in the attempts to bail out stone dead banks on the backs of the marginal economic player – post-destruction of the middle class. Most of the world has no savings to get through difficult times. Most of the world cannot “hedge” inflationary outcomes. Those outcomes appear quickly and change realities violently. The inflationary reality is their reality – the difference between starvation and survival. The result? Global upheaval, leading to where, we are not sure… but probably nowhere nice. Think American monetary policy was a uniquely sovereign, American affair? Think again. You are watching QE II live on television. American monetary policy and the global “race to debase” is that raging crowd you see on the television from Ireland to Greece and Egypt. It is that nascent force which Chinese leaders awake in terror, wondering what a billion plus people might do if faced with stark choices. If you can’t make the connection between the monetary policy and the political reality, you need to change the causal way you look at the world.
Nations hold dollars in reserve to meet the demands of running an economy. When debasement takes place, the marginal economic player gets hit first. This is what we see now. But there is another, geo-political aspect many are missing. The western attempts to control multiple political outcomes and a global geo-political/military order rests on the ability to finance and control that order. When the money gets degraded, the ability to finance that order goes with it. Degradation of currency inhibits foreign force projection, both militarily and politically. Nobody in Egypt believes America is capable of controlling political outcomes, as they did from Suez to Mubarak. That era has passed. It passed with the Shah of Iran, and the death of the widely despised (in Egypt) Anwar Sadat. The Mubarak intermezzo is over. In the Arab world, what happens in Egypt doesn’t stay in Egypt. The potential for “regime change” in Saudi Arabia is growing. Now we find that the financial necessity for Dollar debasement wasn’t as politically benign as people in Washington thought. Instability rages across a region that could usher in an era of global conflict.
People say, “be careful what you wish for” when you talk about the end of western hegemony, but while the political hegemony is dying by the hour, the monetary hegemony is currently intact and its results are evident. When those results swing full circle and return to the west, currency upheaval will be guaranteed. Global system breakdown, which made its debut in 2008 is now back for its main act. Money printing didn’t quite work out the way it was supposed to. This time, a rush to the security of Treasury instruments is unlikely to be the fallback position for global capital that now sees Fed monetary policy as a destructive boomerang cutting inflationary swathes across the planet… en route to its place of origin.

  • From Moshe, a respected Jewish activist, Torah scholar and historian:

this was all planned by the slime 30 yrs ago... force isr to make peace and give up the sinai and then for them to bring nazi-ally from ww2 muslim brotherhood to power in egypt to completely surround israel just when either iraq or iran was given nuke capabilities... begin took care of iraq and so that set the slime back 30 yrs or so... but now they are ready...
they are not slowed down by any computer virus that degraded their nuke progress to the bomb... this is an abject lie to cover their asses in front of the world as to why they... the u.s. or isr whose gov'ts both follow slime orders... as to why they haven't yet launched an attack and an invasion to stop iran... more than this... the u.s. (cia) could have toppled iran anytime they wanted to over the last 20 yrs or so... especially this lasttime with the corrupt election which brought the whole country out into the streets in protest and easily iran was ripe for overthrow... but for these reasons i'm saying here they never did so... bec they are in league with them... they are working for the slime interests so the slime running the u.s. make sure american policy is to leave them alone... a trictly "hands off policy..." 
after the war the muslim brotherhood was passed over to the bloody brits who turned over this hot potato to the americans... we (they the slime ruling here) took over control of them as their assets and sent ex-nazis to the middle east under cover as russian agents to help arab world come up to speed with israel militarily... 
the muz brohood morphed into the plo and then later after all the other spin-off groups from the plo they became al qaeda... and together with the elite slime of this world they brought about the iranian revolution and now this egyptian one... peace is a sham... it is all about destroying isr and having isr destroy the arabs at the same time... a mutual destruction implosion to trigger and kick-start ww3...
tell your readers to go check out threeworldwars.com and see the scenarios... the slime who brought communist russia to power also brought israel to power and just like they made communism self-destruct they have plans to make the zionist movement they created and gave birth to self-destruct as well... right on cue... as soon as they are set to launch ww3... the circumstances of how this came to light staed on this site is a hoax barry chamish says... this was all done by design to cover their slime tracks... and so that very few people would ever believe this "conspiracy theory"  and that is as they like it... as they want it to be...
but while all of this is absolutely true... still the best place to hide a secret is in plain view and thus this is how they have rigged this sick ploy and ruse... and i say while the story is fabricated... albert pike et al... the stuff it reveals is absolutely true...and so i say the info and data and historical precedent set in motion after the civil war to slowly but surely bring the nwo/owg illuminati/masonic plan to reality is true and has been in motion ever since and these wars... 1&2 are exact as to how they went about orchestrating them, conducting them and in the aftermath what they set out to accomplish... and if all of this is so by those 2 first conflagrations then so is it going to be true G-d forbid.... by the next one... ww3... will go off when they want it to... unless Hashem steps in w/moshiach... it will be the big one... gog u'maygog... armaggedon... etc....
Hashem did not interrupt wws 1&2 for His reasons... hopefully He ill intervene this time and put a stop to it... but only if we deserve it... (more on this point next time)... got to run for shabat...
all i'm saying is true and is falling into place... do tshuvah, daven, learn, do the mitzvot... but get educated... the stuff is about to hit the fan in the next 2-3 yrs or so... mosh.out...



  • Mubarak Succumbs to Pressure, Appoints First-Ever Vice President

Shevat 24, 5771, 29 January 11 08:55
by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu, INN
 Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has succumbed to fears of a revolution and announced Saturday the appointment of intelligence chief Omar Suleiman as his first-ever vice president. He also dismissed his cabinet.
Suleiman has been a prominent figure in diplomatic ties with Israel and often has acted as a broker in talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority and between the Fatah and Hamas factions.
Mubarak, who has ruled Egypt since 1981, also named his air force commander and aviation minister, Ahmed Shafik, as prime minister.
The addition of new faces to his regime is aimed at calming the new protest movement, which has been attacked by riot police using the same tactics that are a root cause of the opposition. Egypt has been listed by Amnesty International as one of the worst violators of human rights.

Mubarak said in a televised speech Friday that he would also introduce new political and economic reforms.
Until Mubarak’s dramatic political appointments Saturday, his son Gamal has been considered the prime candidate to succeed his father, who is reportedly suffering from cancer. Gamal Mubarak and his mother and daughter fled last Wednesday to London, according to an Arab news sources, as previously reported by Israel National News. Other sources, including Al Jazeera, confirmed the report on Saturday but then backed off.%ad%
The new positions of Suleiman and Shafik put two military men in top positions as Mubarak tries to avoid a repeat of the revolution in Tunisia, where the army helped overthrow the old regime.
“I think Mubarak is acting on the orders of the military establishment, who clearly value the country’s stability more than they do their president,” John R. Bradley, author of “Inside Egypt: The Land of the Pharaohs on the Brink of a Revolution,” told Bloomberg news service.
The military “will soon offer Mubarak a face-saving way- out, perhaps by announcing that he’s ill again and that Suleiman is to take over until new presidential elections take place,” he said.
In Israel, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has told Cabinet ministers not to comment on the crisis in Egypt, but Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, who left the Cabinet in the Labor party shake-up last week, said he thinks calm will return to Egypt.
The protest movement could directly affect Israel if Hamas supporters in Gaza take to the streets to protest against Mubarak, whose government has been increasingly critical of the terrorist organization’s sponsoring or allowing rocket and mortar attacks on Israel’s western Negev.
Egypt reportedly took most of its forces away from the sensitive Rafiah border, a center of smuggling of drugs and weapons into Gaza from the Sinai Peninsula. Part of the wall between Gaza and Egypt reportedly has been dismantled.

  • debkafile reported earlier Sunday:
Gunmen of Hamas's armed wing, Ezz e-Din al Qassam, crossed from Gaza into northern Sinai Sunday, Jan. 30 to attack Egyptian forces and drive them back. They acted on orders from Hamas' parent organization, the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, confirmed by its bosses in Damascus, to open a second, Palestinian front against the Mubarak regime. The Muslim Brotherhood is therefore more active in the uprising than it would appear.
debkafile's military sources report that Hamas gunmen went straight into battle with Egyptian Interior Ministry Special Forces (CFF) in the southern Egyptian-controlled section of the border town of Rafah and the Sinai port of El Arish. Saturday, Bedouin tribesmen and local Palestinians used the mayhem in Cairo to clash with Egyptian forces at both northern Sinai key points and ransack their gun stores.
Sunday, Hamas terrorists aim to follow this up by pushing Egyptian forces out of the northern and central regions of the peninsula and so bring Egypt's border with the Gaza Strip under Palestinian control. Hamas would then be able to break out of the Egyptian blockade of the enclave and restore its smuggling routes in full. Officials in Gaza City confirmed Sunday, that Hamas's most notorious smuggling experts, including Muhammad Shaar, had broken out of the El Arish jail and were headed for Gaza City.
Our military sources further report that the Multinational Force & Observers (MFO), most of whose members are Americans and Canadians, are on maximum alert at their northern Sinai base, while they wait for US military transports to evacuate them to US bases in Europe.
This force was deployed in Sinai in 1981 for peacekeeping responsibilities and the supervision of the security provisions of the 1979 Peace Treaty between Egypt and Israel under which the peninsula was demilitarized except for Egyptian police. Ending the MFO's mission in Sinai after thirty years knocks down a key pillar propping up the relations of peace between Egypt and Israel.
Early Sunday, the Egyptian army quietly began transferring armored reinforcements including tanks through the tunnels under the Suez from Egypt proper eastward to northern Sinai in effort to drive the Hamas forces back.  The Egyptian troop presence in Sinai, which violates the terms of the peace treaty, has not been mentioned by either of the peace partners. Our Jerusalem sources report the Netanyahu government may have tacitly approved it.
Hamas' Gaza leaders do not seem to fear Israeli military action – or even an air attack - to interfere with their incursion of Sinai, although it brings their armed units within easy reach of the long Egyptian border with Israel.

  • COMMENTARY BY EMANUEL A. WINSTON
       Every Intelligence Agency of consequence knew that Hamas is a composition of radical Palestinian Islamists but, Hamas also has a mix of Iranian and Syrian operatives deep in the bowels of Gaza.
       The Intel Agencies of Egypt, Israel and all the others know that the Terrorists have set up operations in the Sinai which Israel had surrendered as a major land barrier for a 30 year cold peace with Egypt.
       Now the Terrorists out of Gaza have used the rioting in Egypt against President Hosni Mubarak to establish Terror bases in the Sinai Desert from which to launch cross-border attacks against Israel.
       These bases would, no doubt, also be the refuge offered to those thousands of prisoners whom the Muslim Brotherhood helped to escape from Cairo prisons to find safety with safe houses, arms, funds, plans, communications, maps, etc. in the Sinai. Many of the escapees are leaders and organizers of Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda and Hamas. From the Sinai they can launch Terror attacks into Gaza, Eilat, further into Israel, even spreading out into countries along and across the Mediterranean Sea – such as Jordan, Lebanon, Italy….
       No doubt, Israel will once again be forced to strike back in self-defense, both in Sinai and the rest of Israel.  Of course, the world will howl in protest against Israel.
Don’t be surprised to see the Terrorists among the Muslim Palestinians try to take over Jordan which has a 70-80% population of Palestinian Muslims in order to open up a War front with Israel.

                           THE U.S. IS BEHIND THE FALL OF MUBARAK
                                                                            by Barry Chamish                     
 
             Elad Pressman, editor of a major Israeli political website, was my guest on my radio show and did he have news! The Daily Telegraph had dug into Wikileaks documents and pieced together a report that convincingly proves the US was behind the violent Egyptian protests.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/egypt/8289686/Egypt-protests-Americas-secret-backing-for-rebel-leaders-behind-uprising.html

The American Embassy in Cairo helped a young dissident attend a US-sponsored summit for activists in New York, while working to keep his identity secret from Egyptian state police.
On his return to Cairo in December 2008, the activist told US diplomats that an alliance of opposition groups had drawn up a plan to overthrow President Hosni Mubarak and install a democratic government in 2011. He has already been arrested by Egyptian security in connection with the demonstrations and his identity is being protected by The Daily Telegraph.

The disclosures, contained in previously secret US diplomatic dispatches released by the WikiLeaks website, show American officials pressed the Egyptian government to release other dissidents who had been detained by the police.
At least five people were killed in Cairo alone yesterday and 870 injured, several with bullet wounds. Mohamed ElBaradei, the pro-reform leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner, was placed under house arrest after returning to Egypt to join the dissidents. Riots also took place in Suez, Alexandria and other major cities across the country.

The US government has previously been a supporter of Mr Mubarak’s regime. But the leaked documents show the extent to which America was offering support to pro-democracy activists in Egypt while publicly praising Mr Mubarak as an important ally in the Middle East. In a secret diplomatic dispatch, sent on December 30 2008, Margaret Scobey, the US Ambassador to Cairo, recorded that opposition groups had allegedly drawn up secret plans for “regime change” to take place before elections, scheduled for September this year.
The memo, which Ambassador Scobey sent to the US Secretary of State in Washington DC, was marked “confidential” and headed: “April 6 activist on his US visit and regime change in Egypt.”

It said the activist claimed “several opposition forces” had “agreed to support an unwritten plan for a transition to a parliamentary democracy, involving a weakened presidency and an empowered prime minister and parliament, before the scheduled 2011 presidential elections”. The embassy’s source said the plan was “so sensitive it cannot be written down”.
Ambassador Scobey questioned whether such an “unrealistic” plot could work, or ever even existed. However, the documents showed that the activist had been approached by US diplomats and received extensive support for his pro-democracy campaign from officials in Washington. The embassy helped the campaigner attend a “summit” for youth activists in New York, which was organized by the US State Department.

Cairo embassy officials warned Washington that the activist’s identity must be kept secret because he could face “retribution” when he returned to Egypt. He had already allegedly been tortured for three days by Egyptian state security after he was arrested for taking part in a protest some years earlier.
The protests in Egypt are being driven by the April 6 youth movement, a group on Facebook that has attracted mainly young and educated members opposed to Mr Mubarak. The group has about 70,000 members and uses social networking sites to orchestrate protests and report on their activities. The documents released by WikiLeaks reveal US Embassy officials were in regular contact with the activist throughout 2008 and 2009, considering him one of their most reliable sources for information about human rights abuses.

     
Elad strongly suggested that I investigate who was behind Mohammed ElBaradei. Look what I discovered! Just a few months ago, Mohammed ElBaradei was paraded on the front cover of the Council On Foreign Relations (CFR) rag, Foreign Affairs, with a headline asking if he could be Egypt's savior. What uncanny foresight, for on the second day of Egyptian protests he showed up in Cairo and was named as the negotiator of The Muslim Brotherhood. So where did he come from? It turns out from the board of an NGO run by CFR muckrakers George Soros and Zbigniew Brzezinski.
Against the regime, the opposition groups - of which there are at least ten - are just as hamstrung by their failure to produce a leader able to stand up and challenge the president. For lack of any representative figure, they picked the retired nuclear watchdog director Dr. Mohamed ElBaradi to speak for them in negotiations over the transfer of power. Hardly anyone in Egypt knows him: He is better known outside the country having spent many years abroad. Yet, at the same time, ElBaradei sits on the board of a Soros/Brzezinski foundation.
Go to the George Soros/Zbigniew Brzezinski Crisis Groups Website and you will see that the Egyptian clashes have hit surprisingly close to home for them. That's because none other than their own Mohamed ElBaradei, sitting on their board of trustees, is the self-proclaimed leader of the unrest unfolding across the streets of Cairo. The International Crisis Group's recent condemnation of ElBaradei's detention and admission of his membership amongst "the Group" is accompanied by calls for the government to stop using violence against the protesters.
http://www.crisisgroup.org/en/about/board.aspx
A few board members:
G eorge Soros
Chairman, Open Society Institute
Mohamed ElBaradei
Director-General Emeritus, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA); Nobel Peace Prize (2005)
Javier Solana
Former EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy, NATO Secretary-General and Foreign Affairs Minister of Spain
And then, we have The Muslim Brotherhood meeting with Obama. From the Egyptian press: 'Obama met Muslim Brotherhood members in U.S.'
U.S. President Barack Obama met with members of Egypt's Islamist opposition movement, the Muslim Brotherhood, earlier this year, according to a report in Thursday editions of the Egyptian daily newspaper Almasry Alyoum. The newspaper reported that Obama met the group's members, who reside in the U.S. and Europe, in Washington two months ago.
As for Israel, which should be terrified of a potential Muslim Brotherhood government, who else is pushing for one but President Shimon "Mad Dog" Peres? Mubarak appointed Peres' buddy Omar Suleiman (search for pics of the two all over the internet) as his Vice-President, meaning upcoming interim President when Hosni climbs down from the post. And look who Peres got to say what Peres can't, his rabbi and Vatican representative, David "Mad Man" Rosen:

http://euobserver.com/9/31729/?rk=1
Rabbi David Rosen, a prominent commentator on religious affairs, has said
that EU diplomats should start talking to Islamic faith leaders in Egypt in
order to keep the revolution on a peaceful path.

Yes, Israel's President thinks it would be terrific to begin negotiations with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Israel's issues are the same as Egypt's but are hidden behind a charade of democracy. This year's figures reveal that 25% of all Israelis, including over 850,000 children, live beneath the poverty line. The middle class has all but disappeared at 15%, leaving a vast number of poor and unemployed to be ruled by a tiny group of immensely wealthy oligarchs. If you thought
Cairo had a big turnout for its protests, Israel with 1/5 of Cairo's population, drew over 200,000 to protest the Oslo "peace" and the evacuation of Gaza's Jews...to no avail. The government had flipped the organizers with names like Wallerstein and Leiberman and the protests were harmless steam blowing.

It's time Israel joined the Middle East. Get those 200,000 back, led by homeless Gazan Jews and joined by all who live in daily fear of the Shabak (Secret Service), the police, the courts and get them to the President's House to physically oust Shimon Peres from his office.

After that, on to the Knesset.

Food riots and the Fed - and a first-hand account of the reality behind the news blackout in Egypt - Hello Israel, COULD IT HAPPEN HERE?








Taipan Daily: Could U.S. Monetary Policy Ignite World War III?
by Justice Litle, Editorial Director, Taipan Publishing Group
We know the Bernanke Fed is doing odd and dangerous things these days. But could U.S. monetary policy actually touch off a third World War?
It seems far-fetched, no doubt. And the odds of actual world war breaking out are ridiculously low. (They have to be by definition, since world war is in itself such a low-probability event.)
But still, the potential connection is worth exploring, if only as a thought exercise. Highlighting the connections that make the scenario possible, if not plausible, provides useful food for thought.
To start we'll draw on some concepts already featured in these pages, via pieces like "The Pyramid and the Pie" and "Let Them Eat Paper." Namely, it's important to note that:
  • There is great inequality in both the Western and developing worlds.
  • The middle class is being squeezed by rising global competition, and all below a certain class threshold are being squeezed by rising food and energy prices.
  • In its effort to stimulate the U.S. economy with a paper asset boom, the Federal Reserve is indifferent to the pain it is creating via rising food and energy prices -- particularly outside the United States.
In short, the Fed can look at "non-core" inflation and shrug, because the official statistics do not pay attention to it -- and because U.S. consumers spend a relatively small percentage of their incomes on food and energy (compared to the rest of the world).



Elsewhere it is not so easy to look away, as the following Economist excerpt shows:
Outside America, food has a bigger share than energy in consumers' shopping baskets -- and thus in inflation too (see chart). In developing countries, rising food prices can be a human as well as an economic disaster. In Asia in early 2008 a spike in the price of rice led to widespread unrest and desperate attempts by governments to secure more supplies. In December in India, for example, food prices rose at an annual rate of 14%, and there has been a run on onions, a dietary staple...

The equation here is fairly simple. Countries that trade with the United States, or otherwise do a lot of trade in dollars, are subject to an increased flow of dollars thanks to loose Fed policy. In order to keep their own currencies competitive, these same countries take the dollars from their exporters and print up new home currency in exchange for those dollars. (If they did not do this, the value of the home currency would rise, hurting competitiveness.)
The end result is more home currency sloshing around the local economy, which drives food and energy prices up. When developing world families spend 40% of their income or more on basic food staples, this can get to be a problem fast.
In fact, in the previously stable Arab world, food and energy price hikes have led to blood in the streets...
In Tunisia, where the spirit of revolution broke out most plainly, violent town riots centered around "a desperate shortage of food and heating oil" (as reported to the BBC).
Meanwhile, earlier this month, riots in Algeria broke out as the cost of staple goods such as flour, salad oil and sugar more than doubled.
And now, in the latest twist, Egypt and Yemen are erupting. Thousands are rallying... hundreds are being arrested... and an unfortunate few are being killed.
The Middle East power structure has long been dominated by "strong men" -- totalitarian leaders who have held an iron grip on power for decades, reacting to dissent with brutal crackdowns of force. Sad to say, the United States government has also cultivated official ties with many of these strong men in the name of combating terrorism and maintaining links to the region.
Now, many unsavory characters are at risk of being toppled by a rising swell of anger, sweeping through regimes like a chain of dominoes. And the core of it comes back to out-of-control food price escalations, which, in turn, are in no small part a consequence of the money-pumping Federal Reserve.
So where is the World War III connection? That goes back to Middle East leaders and the dawning horror that is engulfing them. As the "Jasmine Revolution" of Tunisia causes protests and revolts to leap from country to country, no strong man can feel truly safe. Those who have not been forced to flee are drawing up alternative plans.
As Samuel Johnson reputedly said, "Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel." Extreme forms of patriotism involve beating the drums of war. And for authoritarian regimes facing existential crisis, one of the oldest plays in the book is stirring up fervor for an outside enemy.
Nothing like a rise of nationalist anger and outward directed aggression to cool the simmering discontentment at home...



So now let's connect all the dots:
  • U.S. monetary policy exports inflation to the rest of the world (exacerbating a sharp rise in food prices).
  • The Federal Reserve continues on this path assuming "no inflationary impact," as it is only focused on U.S. domestic markets (and artificially massaged "core" inflation stats).
  • Cost-of-living increases in Tunisia, Algeria, Egypt, Yemen and elsewhere touch off a domino chain of protests and riots, with large reserves of pent-up aggression finally bursting forth.
  • Other Arab "strong men" observe with horror the plight of their fleeing brethren and set their minds to avoiding the same scenario.
  • A desperate lack of choices ultimately leads to one of the oldest tricks in the book: A diversion disguised as patriotism (or nationalism), the more belligerent the better, to draw civilian attention away from crumbling conditions at home.
  • With the potential for military escalation unclear, and much of the Middle East power structure in jeopardy all at once, the wrong combination of destructive feedback loops -- and there are many combos to choose from -- ultimately leads to war...
Regardless of ultimate outcome, we can see via this exercise how bad policies can have unintended impacts. Like the "butterfly effect" in chaos theory, one never knows how far an unwise decision can reverberate, or what unexpected further chain reactions will be touched off. With a little imagination and scenario-building, we can further see how the Western world powers that be -- who project their smug confidence and assurance daily -- are fooling no one but themselves.
Warm Regards,
JL



  • Egypt's Reality Now
"To all the people of world
The people in Egypt are under governmental siege. Mubarak regime is banning Facebook, Twitter, and all other popular internet sites. Tomorrow the government will block the 3 mobile phone network and the internet completely. And there is news that even the phone landline will be cut tomorrow, to prevent any news agency from following what will happen.
Suez city is already under siege now. The government cut the water supply and electricity, people, including, children and elderly are suffering there now. The patients in hospitals cannot get urgent medical care. The injured protestors are lying in the streets and the riot police are preventing people from helping them. The families of the killed protestors cannot get the bodies of their sons to bury them. This picture is the same in north Saini (El-Sheikh zoyad city) and in western Egypt (Al-salom). The riot police is cracking down on protestors in Ismailia, Alexandria, Fayoum, Shbin Elkoum, and Cairo, the capital, in many neighborhoods across the city.
The government is preparing to crackdown on the protestors in all Egyptian cities. They are using tear gas bombs, rubber and plastic (bullets?)pullets, chemicals like dilutes mustard gas against protestors. Several protestors today have been killed when the armored vehicles of the riot police hit them. Officials in plain clothes carrying blades and knives used to intimidate protestors.
All this has been taken place over the past three days during the peaceful demonstrations in Cairo and other cities. Now, with the suspicious silence of the local media and the lack of coverage from the international media, Mubarak and his gang are blocking all the channels that can tell the world about what is happening.
People who call for their freedom need your support and help. Will you give them a hand?
The activists are flooding the net (youtube and other sites) with thousands of pictures and videos showing the riot police firing on armless people. The police started to use ammunition against protestors. 15-year old girl has been injured and another 25 year old man has been shot in the mouth. While nothing of these has appeared in the media, there is more to happen tomorrow. Will you keep silent? Will you keep your mouth shut while seeing all these cruelty and inhumane actions?
We don’t ask for much, just broadcast what is happening"

(Talkback to the above video posting)

Comment:

No way to know if the report is true or not, but knowing governments, specially Middle Eastern governments, I would surmise - why not? 

Anonymous asks: "COULD IT HAPPEN HERE?"

Hello Israel: now we know how we would be greeted, should we decide to confront our own government over their many, multiple and increasing evils. And knowing Israeli technological advance, and the Israeli government's incestuous ties to the NWO via Shimon Peres, Ehud Barak, Tsippi Livni, the supreme court, and others,  their response would probably be a thousand times worse.


So much for 'demokratia'.
Shabbat Shalom. 


PS: Notice below how the news media don't report all the weapons heard and seen on the clip above and in the account of that writer: notice the watered-down video from AP as well.

However, truth be told, these people are evil, and deserve everything they get, on both sides.



  • 25 Jan. More than 100,000 turned out Tuesday, Jan. 25 in central Cairo and other Egyptian cities for stormy demonstrations such as Egypt has not seen for decades. Airing many grievances, they called on President Hosni Mubarak to resign after 30 years in power.
Officials said three people had been killed in clashes between stone-throwing demonstrators and policemen using tear gas, water cannon and night sticks – two demonstrators and a policeman.
DEBKAfile's Cairo sources report that the organizers plan to keep their protest going non-stop and absorbing all the non-religious opposition elements in the country. So far the Islamic parties led by the Muslim Brotherhood have ordered their followers to stay out. If this order is change, the Mubarak regime will be in trouble.

  • Associated Press
CAIRO (AP) - Egyptian police fired tear gas and rubber bullets and beat protesters to clear thousands of people from a central Cairo square Wednesday after the biggest demonstrations in years against President Hosni Mubarak's authoritarian rule.

after the war the muslim brotherhood was passed over to the bloody brits who turned over this hot potato to the americans... we (they the slime ruling here) took over control of them as their assets and sent ex-nazis to the middle east under cover as russian agents to help arab world come up to speed with israel militarily... 
 
the muz brohood morphed into the plo and then later after all the other spin-off groups from the plo they became al qaeda... and together with the elite slime of this world they brought about the iranian revolution and now this egyptian one... peace is a sham... it is all about destroying isr and having isr destroy the arabs at the same time... a mutual destruction implosion to trigger and kick-start ww3...
 
tell your readers to go check out threeworldwars.com and see the scenarios... the slime who brought communist russia to power also brought israel to power and just like they made communism self-destruct they have plans to make the zionist movement they created and gave birth to self-destruct as well... right on cue... as soon as they are set to launch ww3... the circumstances of how this came to light staed on this site is a hoax barry chamish says... this was all done by design to cover their slime tracks... and so that very few people would ever believe this "conspiracy theory"  and that is as they like it... as they want it to be...
 
but while all of this is absolutely true... still the best place to hide a secret is in plain view and thus this is how they have rigged this sick ploy and ruse... and i say while the story is fabricated... albert pike et al... the stuff it reveals is absolutely true...and so i say the info and data and historical precedent set in motion after the civil war to slowly but surely bring the nwo/owg illuminati/masonic plan to reality is true and has been in motion ever since and these wars... 1&2 are exact as to how they went about orchestrating them, conducting them and in the aftermath what they set out to accomplish... and if all of this is so by those 2 first conflagrations then so is it going to be true G-d forbid.... by the next one... ww3... will go off when they want it to... unless Hashem steps in w/moshiach... it will be the big one... gog u'maygog... armaggedon... etc....
 
Hashem did not interrupt wws 1&2 for His reasons... hopefully He ill intervene this time and put a stop to it... but only if we deserve it... (more on this point next time)... got to run for shabat...
 
all i'm saying is true and is falling into place... do tshuvah, daven, learn, do the mitzvot... but get educated... the stuff is about to hit the fan in the next 2-3 yrs or so... mosh.out...

Listen to this "Swiss Whiz": don't you just love his honesty? In a few short sentences, he says it all.



Thanks to Zero Hedge...

... And here is another sharp perspective:

Empty Promises: 5 Reasons Why Barack Obama’s State Of The Union Address Was Completely Wrong About The Economy

Barack Obama's State of the Union address sure sounded good, didn't it?  There were lots of solemn promises, lots of stuff about America's "bright future" and a line about how we are now facing this generation's "Sputnik moment" that will surely make headlines all over the globe.  But we all knew that Barack Obama could give a good speech.  That has never been the issue.  What the American people really need are some very real answers to some very real problems.  So were there any real answers in Barack Obama's State of the Union address?  Well, Barack Obama promised that America will "out-innovate, out-educate and out-build" the rest of the world.  He also pledged that America will become "the best place in the world to do business" and that the government must "take responsibility" for our deficit spending.  But does all of this rhetoric mean anything or is all this just another batch of empty promises to add to the long list of empty promises that Barack Obama has already made and broken?
The American people certainly don't need any more empty promises.  Millions of American families have been pushed to the edge of desperation by this economy.
There has been a lot of talk that the economy is "turning around", but in many areas of the country the employment situation continues to get even worse.  Payrolls decreased in 35 U.S. states during the month of December.
The truth is that the number of "good jobs" produced by the U.S. economy continues to shrink.  In fact, only 47 percent of working-age Americans have a full-time job at this point.
The American people are not going to buy this "economic recovery" as long as unemployment remains at epidemic levels in so many areas.  Just consider some of the stunningly high unemployment rates in some of our most important states....
Nevada - 14.5%
California - 12.5%
Florida - 12.0%
So did Barack Obama propose anything substantial that will actually create real jobs?
No.
Instead, all he had to offer was just a bunch of empty promises.  It is almost as if Obama believes that a really good inspirational speech will somehow make things better.  The following are just a few of the empty promises Obama made during his address to the nation....
Empty Promise #1: America Will "Out-Innovate" The Rest Of The World And This Will Create More Jobs
During the State of the Union address, Barack Obama promised that the United States will "out-innovate" the rest of the world and that this will create more jobs.
Oh really?
Perhaps we could create some more cutting edge products like the Apple iPhone, right?
After all, Apple iPhones were one of the most wildly successful American technological innovations of the past decade.  Surely this is the kind of innovation that Obama would like to see more of.
Well, do you know where Apple iPhones are made?
Apple iPhones are manufactured in China by workers making about 293 dollars a month (and that was after a big raise).
But it isn't just the Apple iPhone that is made overseas.  The truth is that almost all high technology products are made outside of the United States.
In 2008, 1.2 billion cellphones were sold worldwide.  So how many of them were manufactured inside the United States?  Zero.
Ouch.
Not only that, another fact to note is that manufacturing employment in the U.S. computer industry was actually lower in 2010 than it was in 1975.
So exactly how is more "innovation" going to produce millions of U.S. jobs if all of the high tech manufacturing continues to be shipped out of the United States?
Empty Promise #2: America Will "Out-Educate" The Rest Of The World And This Will Create More Jobs
For decades, U.S. presidents have promised that "education" is the key to competing with the rest of the world.
Okay, if suddenly every single person in the United States had an extra college degree, would that mean that more jobs would suddenly start popping into existence?
Of course not.
Right now, we can't produce enough nearly enough jobs for all of the college graduates that we already have.
Sadly, the truth is that we are already experiencing an epidemic of unemployment among our college graduates.  According to the Project on Student Debt, unemployment for new college graduates stood at 8.7 percent in 2009, which was way up from 5.8 percent in 2008.
But that is not the whole story.
Millions of college graduates that have been able to find jobs have ended up taking jobs that they didn't even need a college education for.  The "underemployment rate" among college graduates is absolutely exploding.
In 1992, there were just 5.1 million "underemployed" college graduates in the United States, but by 2008 there were 17 million "underemployed" college graduates in the United States.
Many of our brightest young minds are now flipping burgers, waiting tables and welcoming people to Wal-Mart.
In fact, in the United States today 317,000 waiters and waitresses have college degrees.
Oh, but certainly the answer is to get more Americans to go to college, right?
It certainly sounds good in a speech for a politician to say that "more education" is the answer, but in the end all it amounts to is a hollow promise.
Getting more Americans to go to college will not create any more jobs, but it will create more debt.  Americans now owe more than $884 billion on student loans, which is more than the total amount that Americans owe on their credit cards.
Empty Promise #3: America Will "Out-Build" The Rest Of The World And This Will Create More Jobs
So Barack Obama says that we are going to "out-build" the rest of the world?
Well, that certainly sounds good.
But what exactly does that mean?
Does it mean that we are going to quit shutting down our factories and tearing down our economic infrastructure?
After all, over 42,000 U.S. factories have closed down for good since 2001.
So is Obama going to do something to stop the flood of jobs and factories that are leaving the United States?
No, in fact he intends to "increase" trade with countries such as China and India.  That is going to mean that thousands more factories and millions more jobs are going to be "outsourced".
Well, what about building up infrastructure such as roads, bridges, power grids, dams and ports?
That is certainly a very good idea.
According to the American Society of Civil Engineers, we need to spend approximately $2.2 trillion on infrastructure repairs and upgrades just to bring our existing infrastructure up to "good condition".
So we desperately need some investment in that area.
But there is a big problem.
We are flat broke.
As will be discussed below, the U.S. government is flat broke.  Not only that, our state governments are flat broke and our local governments are flat broke.
So where will the trillions of dollars that we need for infrastructure come from?
Obama did not even come close to answering that question.
Empty Promise #4: America Will Become "The Best Place In The World To Do Business" And This Will Create More Jobs
It was incredible that Barack Obama could suggest that America is "the best place in the world to do business" with a straight face.
First of all, when you consider all forms of taxation, U.S. businesses face one of the most oppressive taxation regimes in the entire world.
But not only that, U.S. businesses also have to deal with one of the most horrific regulatory environments in the history of mankind.
As I have written about previously, the mountains of red tape that U.S. businesses have to wade through just continues to grow every single year.
The Federal Register is the main source of regulations for U.S. government agencies.  In 1936, the number of pages in the Federal Register was about 2,600.  Today, the Federal Register is over 80,000 pages long.
So is Barack Obama going to do anything about that?
Of course not.
In fact, Barack Obama and the Democrats have been really busy passing even more ridiculous regulations.
For example, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is projecting that the food service industry will have to spend an additional 14 million hours every single year just to comply with new federal regulations that mandate that all vending machine operators and chain restaurants must label all products that they sell with a calorie count in a location visible to the consumer.
Empty Promise #5: Barack Obama Pledges To "Take Responsibility" For Our Deficit Spending
During Barack Obama's first two years in office, the U.S. government added more to the U.S. national debt than the first 100 U.S. Congresses combined.
In fact, since Barack Obama took office, the U.S. government has gotten us into so much new debt that it breaks down to $10,429.64 for each of the 308,745,538 people counted by the 2010 U.S. census.
So is that "taking responsibility" for our deficit spending?
When Barack Obama took office, the U.S. national debt was 10.6 trillion dollars.
Today it is over 14 trillion dollars.
Government debt is absolutely out of control.  At this point, the U.S. national debt is increasing by roughly 4 billion dollars every single day.
If all of this debt is not brought under control, it will bring down the entire U.S. financial system.  According to a recent U.S. Treasury report to Congress, the U.S. national debt will reach 19.6 trillion dollars in 2015.
Can you imagine being 20 trillion dollars in debt?
That is 20,000,000,000,000 dollars.
So it would be really great if Barack Obama could do something about all of this debt, but based on his track record perhaps we should not be holding our breath.
Not that Obama is to blame for all of this.
The sad reality is that both parties have been involved in a massive debt orgy for decades and decades.  Now the day of reckoning is almost here and it is going to be incredibly painful.
We are in so much trouble that it is hard to even try to put it into words.  None of our politicians are telling us the whole truth.  We are headed for a complete and total disaster.

The change in regional mood after Tunisia


By Dan Murphy

posted January 21, 2011 at 11:22 am EST
It’s hard to overestimate the extent to which Tunisia’s uprising has captured the imagination of the Arab world.
They’ve been transfixed by the previously unthinkable images carried by Al Jazeera (and delighted by commentators describing other regional leaders as despots and worse on the channel’s free-wheeling talk shows):
Scenes of average Tunisians climbing on the roof of the Interior Ministry (a building whose iterations from Algiers to Cairo to Riyadh stirs fear and loathing in reform-minded citizens); thronging at the offices of the ruling party and tearing up its posters; sacking and looting the palaces of their leaders; the humiliation and rage of the young coalescing into street power that pushed out a tyrant.
One image really caught my attention today, on the Boston Globe’s excellent Big Picture photo blog (number 30 in the list, via the Arabist). A ragged Tunisian protestor facing down riot police with a loaf of bread wielded like an assault rifle. Economic hardship, defiance of the fear everyone lives with, the heady taste of freedom. It’s all there.
Protesters continue to push for all of the old regime's servants to be tossed out of the interim government today, unimpressed that the longtime servants of ousted President Zine El Abidine Ben Allie's formerly ruling Democratic Constitutional Rally (RCD) denounced their membership in the party yesterday.
Adding to the satisfaction – and the power – of events has been that no outside power, certainly not the distrusted US, had anything to do with this. This wasn’t US tanks pulling down Saddam Hussein’s statue or the US-backed Northern Alliance chasing the Taliban from Kabul.
Those events and their aftermath, particularly in Iraq, stirred dread and misgivings among Arab. As the bodies have piled up over 8 years of war in Iraq, they fed whispers that just maybe they were better off with the tyrants they know, the price of avoiding the dreaded fitnah – civil strife and unrest – that regime-backed Muslim preachers were always warning them against. Not this time.
A friend of mine in Cairo – middle class, apolitical, a Coptic Christian generally worried that freedom in Egypt might bring the Muslim Brotherhood to power – just quoted the deceased US labor leader civil rights activist Cesar Chavez on his Facebook page. “Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore. We have seen the future, and the future is ours."
There are millions like him now. This burst of enthusiasm could well fade, and as a host of knowledgeable commentators have pointed out, a wave of revolution washing over the rest of the regime is rather less likely than not.
In Cairo and Damascus the regimes have taken notice, are studying what happened in Tunis, and are preparing countermeasures.
A country like Egypt is much poorer than Tunisia, its middle class tinier and less relevant. In Algeria, the regime has the firm support of the military and the recent past shows they’re willing to plunge the country into civil war rather than fade from the scene quietly.
The oil monarchies of the Gulf? Black gold has helped buy the quiescence of most, funded security organizations that are effective and ruthless, and the deeper religious convictions of the population make that fear of fitnah more powerful still. Lebanon? Its volatile past and Shiite/Christian/Sunni mix, its deep entanglement with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, make it as different from all the other Arab states as they are from each other.
But the minds of democracy activists and regime-opponents across the region are whirring, evidence that something they hoped was possible is possible is now before them. I sure don’t know what’s coming next and it’s hard to see how anyone could. But something. A new chapter has been opened.

Comment: 

Maybe now, finally, Arabs will direct their rage where it belongs, and not on us; and let's hope that THE WHOLE MIDDLE EAST learns its lesson - and that includes Israel.

A good story, but with a missing slant: not a victory, a blessing!

 

Jews in Mufti's House=Justice!

by Atty. Elyakim Haetzni

The notorious Haj Amin's "Shepherd Hotel" was bought by Zionist US Jews and torn down to build homes for Jewish families. Sometimes we are privileged to see historic justice in our time, says this noted Israeli.
Karm el-Mufti is the Arabic name of the land in Sheikh Jarrah owned by Hajj Amin el-Husseini ("der grosse Mufti," the great Mufti, as he was called in the Nazi German Reich, with which he identified, body and soul). In 1929, the year in which he was responsible for the murder of 118 Jews, two Jewish architects, almost on a volunteer basis, built a spacious home for him.

Hajj Amin, the ideologue who initiated harnessing belligerent Islam to all-out war against the Jews and Zionism and the father of Arab terrorism, was also a loyal, full-fledged Nazi,. In the [Second] World War, he directed the Nazi propaganda for the Middle East from within Germany . Hitler and Himmler's doors were open to him, he built SS divisions in Bosnia,and he received a "franchise" to carry out the destruction of the Jews of Eretz Israel by means of the local Arabs, upon Rommel's then-expected conquest of the area.

This same Mufti also prevented the rescue of Jewish children in exchange for German prisoners of war, and saw to their destruction in Auschwitz.

After the war, not only did the British not try him as a war criminal, they even allowed him to continue to fight against us in

partnership with Nazis, until his dying day.

Now Jews are in the "Karm" of the Nazi murderer, and a synagogue in memory of the Holocaust will be located in his house: is there any greater historic justice than this?


The Mufti rented the house to the Christian Arab historian George Antonius, one of the creators
ex nihilo of the false Palestinian
mythos, in order to counter the historic claims of the Jews. Hajj Amin mobilized religious fanaticism in the service of the
"Palestinian cause," and Antonius provided the educated West with a pseudoscientific Palestinian narrative with which to attack Zionism.

With the help of his wife Cathy, the house functioned as a social salon in which, in an aristocratic atmosphere, the Palestinian
nobility met with the senior British officials. Both shared their profound loathing of the Jews. Among her lovers, Cathy shared her
bed with the infamous General Barker, the commander of the British forces in Eretz Israel, and the author of the slogan "Hit the Jews in their pockets." Members of the Haganah would eventually find his love letters in the Antonius home.

And now--Jews in the cradle of Palestinian nationalism and the upper-class British social anti-Semitism in Eretz Israel: is there any greater historic justice than this?


On April 16, 1948, a convoy to Mount Scopus was attacked close to the "Mufti's House." The British broke their commitment to defend it, and for six long hours, in broad daylight, Dr. Yassky, the director of the Hadassah Hospital, Dr. Moshe Ben-David, the director of the medical school, the linguistics scholar Dr. Benjamin Klar, Abraham Freiman, an expert on Jewish law, doctors, professors, nurses, and patients were brutally murdered. At that time, a British regiment (the Scottish Highlanders) was stationed in the Mufti's house, but didn't lift a finger.


And as in Hebron in 1929, the British eventually put an end to the massacre with a single shot, but only after they drank their fill from the  blood of 68 Jews, so, too, next to the Mufti's house, they put an end to the horror only after 78 had been murdered.  On the contrary, they prevented the Palmah [Israeli pre-state defense forces, ed.]  from coming to the assistance of those being

slaughtered.

On the plot adjoining the Mufti's house, the British built a beautiful consulate building, that serves - what else? - as a focal
point for the consuls' opposition to Jerusalem being the capital of Israel.

Now, the hostile British cannot open a window without seeing Jews through it, from close up: is there greater historic justice than

this?

"The Mufti's House" stands at a major junction, on the seam line of historic Jerusalem. The Ramallah authorities, the American and European foreign ministries, and the Jewish collaborators claim that Jewish "settlement" here will prevent the partition of the city, and will frustrate the establishment of the Palestinian capital in it.


O that it would be so! Amen! And if this is the case, then the good Dr. Irving and Cherna Moskowitz, who purchased "Karm el-Mufti" and other strategic sites in order to plant Jewish life in them,  have secured their place in Jewish history.


Only a single question remains hanging in the air unanswered: what has happened to us, that we have lost the ability to experience wholeheartedly the satisfaction of achievement, the gratification of success, and the joy of this victory?


And by the way, let us not forget that the trail of blood for Tarpat leads straight to Rome - not to minimize the role of the above players, of course:

Crime against humanity; genocide; by the UN. As per former FBI chief.






Former FBI Chief, Ted L. Gunderson, makes a statement regarding the chemtrail "death dumps", otherwise known as air crap, on January 12, 2011. Ted says the following:
"The death dumps, otherwise known as chemical trails, are being dropped and sprayed throughout the United States and England, Scotland, Ireland, and Northern Europe. I have personally seen them not only in the United States, but in Mexico and in Canada. Birds are dying around the world. Fish are dying by the hundreds of thousands around the world. This is genocide. This is poison. This is murder by the United Nations. This element within our society that is doing this must be stopped. I happen to know of two of the locations where the airplanes are that dump this crap on us. Four of the planes are out of the Air National Guard in Lincoln, Nebraska. And, the other planes are out of Fort Sill, Oklahoma. I personally have observed the planes that were standing still in Nebraska - Lincoln, Nebraska - at the Air National Guard. They have no markings on them. They are huge, bomber-like airplanes with no markings. This is a crime: a crime against humanity, a crime against America, a crime against the citizens of this great country. The must be stopped. WHAT IS WRONG WITH CONGRESS? This has an affect on their population, and their people, and their friends, and their relatives, and themselves. What's wrong with them? What's wrong with the pilots who are flying these airplanes and dumping this crap, this poison, on their own families? Somebody has to do something about it. Somebody in Congress has to step forward and stop it now. Thank you. I'm Ted Gunderson."

I had a feeling something was not quite kosher about the Arizona shooting: now it all makes sense!



Sheriff Mack is one of my great heroes: courageous, truthful; if he says so, it IS so! 
Not only that: this assassination was so politically convenient, I could not help but compare it to the various politically motivated assassinations in Israel; the pattern is the same, the media response is the same, the finger pointing is the same, the character assassination of the right is the same. Something just didn't fit; I thought maybe a "Jewish" ( she is apparently not halachically Jewish) congresswoman would be an convenient victim while targeting the right. But that the judge should be the actual target didn't cross my mind. 

Thank you, Sheriff Mack, thank you, Alex Jones, and thank you, Judge Roll: may your memory be blessed.

This should be shared with everybody!



Thank you, Mark.

And while we are at it, let's share this one as well:
  
Thank you, Jack.

So who is left to stand up to Islam: Switzerland? For a while Denmark looked better than the rest of them - I guess it was only an illusion.


Free Speech Has Died in Europe 

 Prof. Phyllis Chesler - Arutz Sheva: OpEd, January 13th, 2011
On February 24, 2011, the distinguished Lars Hedegaard, the President of the Danish Free Press Society and the International Free Press Society, will stand trial for telling the truth about Islamic gender apartheid.
Europe, once the birthplace of freedom, is fast becoming its graveyard.
True, the Church tortured and burned many geniuses as heretics; Dutch Jews excommunicated Spinoza; wars for religious supremacy raged for hundreds of years. Still, concepts such as free speech and individual human rights over and above the divine rights of Kings gradually ruled the European zeitgeist. Americans and other former colonists romanticized Europe as “the” place for artists, free thinkers, and free spirits.
Despite fairly rigid class systems, and the continued existence of symbolic (but well paid) monarchies, European countries are known for providing educational, social, and health care services for all—a reality which, given immigration, and native concepts of a short work week followed by an early, long retirement, may potentially bankrupt them all.
Nevertheless, Europe has been in the forefront of both free speech and libertinism. For example, Denmark legalized gay marriage in 1989; Holland and Germany followed suit in 2001. In 1999, Denmark decided that prostitutes could ply their trade as individuals, but outlawed both pimps and brothels. In 2000, Holland legalized brothels. From 1999 on, buying—but not selling sex—has been illegal in Sweden. In 2009,   Norway and Iceland passed similar legislation. Austria, a decadent country, led the pack; since 1986, prostituted Austrian women have been obliged to pay taxes on their income.
One often assumes that freedom of thought and speech must co-exist with such misogynist libertinism. One would be wrong. In 2004, in Holland, journalist and filmmaker Theo Van Gogh was butchered and Ayaan Hirsi Ali was sent into hiding and then exile; in 2009, politician Geert Wilders was also put on trial for trying to tell the truth about Islamic gender and religious apartheid and jihad. Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff is currently on trial in Austria for talking off the record to a journalist about her own experiences while living in the Islamic world.
Please note: Islamists did not launch their legal prosecution. Their own countrymen, in the language of “political correctness” and in the guise of opposing “hate speech” did so.
In 2010, the American author, Bruce Bawer and his Norwegian colleagues were accused of “racism” and “Islamophobia” by Norwegian leftists and Islamists who tried to have their excellent   online website Human Rights Service defunded. This site publishes work about Islam and women’s rights. One leftist minister actually reported them to the United Nations for “Islamophobia.” Hege Storhaug and Rita Karlsen, who run the website, have just informed me that they do not believe this minister will succeed in having them declared “racists” or in de-funding their work.
And now, free speech is under full-scale attack in Denmark.
The Danes have, perhaps, been traumatized by what happened in 2005, when Islamists slipped three more offensive cartoons into Kurt Westergaard’s Danish cartoon mix, and then used their own cartoons to justify riots against Westergaard and other infidels. Global publishers became frightened and refused to reprint the less offensive cartoons. Even Yale University Press, which published a book about the cartoons, pulled the actual cartoons from their edition, without telling the author.
To this day, more than six years later, Westergaard still lives in hiding with an armed guard. In 2010, Lars Wilks, the Swedish artist, was nearly murdered by a would-be Muslim assassin.
And now we have the Danish criminal prosecution of two Danish heroes: Lars Hedegaard and Jesper Langballe, a member of the Danish Parliament. Both men are accused of committing “hate speech.” What speech did Langballe utter?
He exposed honor killings among Muslims and was actually convicted for doing so.
According to Ahmed Mohamud, the Vice President of The Danish Free Press Society, and Katrine Winkel Holm, Chief Editor of Sappho, the Society’s magazine.
In the past year, the Danish public prosecutor has been waging a lawfare offensive against outspoken critics of Islam and Muslim practices. On December 3, 2010, Member of Parliament Jesper Langballe was convicted of ‘hate speech’ – or as the judge in the lower court of Randers put it: ‘racial discrimination’ – for having called attention to honour killings in Muslim families.
And what exactly is Lars Hedegaard’s crime?
His crime has been to point to the great number of family rapes in areas dominated by Muslim culture. This well documented fact has brought him an indictment under the Danish penal code’s ‘racism’ clause…
According to Mohamud and Winkel Holm, both MP Langballe and Lars Hedegaard have long ago “emphasised that they did not intend to accuse all Muslims or even the majority of Muslims of such crimes. This has made no impression on the public prosecutor. We fear that the public prosecutor intends to stifle open debate on Islam and Muslim culture. And we fear that he is doing so with the tacit approval of the governing parties, which first signalled their intention to remove the racism clause from the penal code but have recently recanted.”
If the government succeeds in silencing Langballe and Hedegaard, who will have the courage to continue to speak out?
If free speech and truth speech become criminal offenses in Denmark, what will happen to freedom in other European countries? Such state censorship and criminal prosecution characterize nearly every Muslim country. Now Europe is rapidly becoming the very country—“Eurabia”—first predicted by Bat Ye’or in 2005.  From the British Isles to the south of Italy, from France to Scandinavia, more and more Muslim women (including European converts) are wearing face veils and burqas, marrying their first cousins or polygamous men in arranged marriages, remaining at home as domestic servants, having triple or even quadruple the number of children that their non-Muslim counterparts have. Most happily live on the European dole.
Muslim girls and women are being savagely honor murdered in Europe if they dare resist this larger Islamist goal of colonizing Europe. Thus far, America and Israel may be the last countries standing against just such Arabization and fundamentalist Islamification.
I have published academic studies about honor killings and have written many articles about individual cases. I testify in court cases for potential Muslim honor killing victims who are seeking asylum in America. Will I, too, someday be tried as a “racist”? Will such asylum seekers be tried as criminals for exposing the horrendous violence that they have escaped in the hope that the West will be a sanctuary for them?
Can what is happening in Denmark, Holland, and Austria ever happen in America?
I strongly urge the Danish prosecutors to set aside Jesper Langballe’s conviction and to drop all charges against him and against my colleague Lars Hedegaard.  If they fail to do so, they are personally responsible for sending their country and culture back to the Middle Ages, Islamist style.


... Those were the days....
