Associated Press attacks Netanyahu’s speech

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed a joint session of the United States Congress today commenting on Palestine and Israel, and if both States should return to 1967 borders. In other words, essentially force Israel to give up its land in favor of sharing it with the Palestinian people.

While President Obama is vacationing around Europe and spreading some BS that he’s now an Irishman, Netanyahu’s visit to the United States was to also send a clear message that “Israel can defend itself.”

It is interesting that every time Netanyahu comes to the United States, President Obama has other things he has to be doing.

But already, the news media is attacking Netanyahu. By way of example, the Associated Press stated that Israel is a leading recipient of more than $1 billion in military aid each year. Israel is a crucial ally in the Middle East, as was Egypt, before Obama apparently forgave that debt last week. Despite the assistance, Israel’s military is more than capable of defending itself, which is what Netanyahu was alluding to.

AP also said that Netanyahu was wrong with indicating “Israel will not negotiate with the Palestinian government backed by the Palestinian version of al-Qaeda.”

AP says that Hamas (which is backed by Palestine) and al-Qaeda have no connection. Really?

Maybe the AP apparently forgot that Zawahiri, the leader of al-Qaeda, is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood which supports Hamas as well?

Furthermore, Netanyahu spoke heavily about wanting to reach a peaceful compromise with Palestine and said that while it would be extremely painful, it could be done. He noted that in the past, Israel has given up occupation of land in both Southern Lebanon and in the Gaza Strip. What did that leave Israel? With acts of terror from Hezbollah and Hamas.

Towards the closing of his speech, Netanyahu remarked that if Palestine is willing to sever its relationship with Hamas, then peace would be reached. But some of his comments about Israel keeping several territories have apparently upset Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas who calls this nothing more than a “declaration of war”.

In short however, Netanyahu’s speech on stabilization and peace for the Jewish people in the Middle East was found to be very inspirational and welcoming. I’d prefer him as President of the United States any day.

Could we perhaps negotiate with Netanyahu and allow him to become President? We’ll just give Obama to the Middle East since he enjoys sympathizing with the Arab world so much.

End the world starts tomorrow?

Tomorrow is Judgment Day according to Christians nationwide. For months now, you’ve probably seen the billboards or heard the radio advertisements “save the date” for May 21st. This is being promoted by Harold Camping of Family Radio and according to Camping, tomorrow will be the start of the first phase for the end of the world. Officially the end will come this October.

Skeptics however, whether they believe in God or not, are calling Camping’s bluff. Camping had stated that 1994 was to be the end of the world. He claims it was a mathematical error based on his findings in the Bible. The reason why Christians believe the end is here is because it welcomes the time of the rapture in which God will take his believers to heaven and the rest of us can live in a world of hell.

Call it what you may, whether you believe this or not, one does have to take into careful consideration with relation to significant events in the last year. We’ve had a major oil spill in the Gulf Coast, major earthquakes not only devastating the entire nation of Japan, but also in Haiti and Chile, recording breaking tornados and flooding damaging the mid-west and southern regions of the United States and the Middle East engulfed in unprecedented protests and violence. Could any of these catastrophic events actually hold validity?

Additionally, countries like North Korea and Iran have developed nuclear capabilities. Could we possibly see a nuclear war in the very near future? Certainly it is possible. For years now, Iran has been insisting on “wiping Israel off the map” by any means necessary and Iran has had close relations to terrorist groups including Hezbollah.

This came to light today when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made President Obama look like a total embarrassment after insisting Obama’s plans to allow Israel and Palestine to return to 1967 borders would never happen. Obama insists that the United States will work with Israel on peace talks between Palestine hopefully reaching a compromise by September. That is if Iran doesn’t blow up half the world in the meantime.

Obama’s hope to recognize Palestine as a legitimate nation by September is interesting though. It happens to be right around the time that the Christians say will be the final end date. Perhaps by then there will be a nuclear war? I’ll let you decide.

But if chaos really disrupts your Saturday plans by tomorrow evening, well then, kiss your weekend goodbye!

Egypt and Iran bridge relations?


The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday that Egypt and Iran have bridged diplomatic relations for the first time in 30 years, ever since Egypt had signed a peace treaty with Israel.

However, Iran and Egypt respectively, have been denying such comments that they had begun smoothing out relations, even though Egypt’s foreign minister had stated in Cairo, that both countries where taking steps to re-establish ties.

Either way you look at it, the situation offers some rather disturbing scenarios as to what is really going on in the Middle East at the height of the unrest spreading from country to country.

For years, Egypt had been the only country to help stabilize the peace with Israel. However, since the collapse of President Hosni Mubarak’s regime in February, there has been more than enough concern as to whether the presence of the Muslim Brotherhood to infiltrate relations within Egypt’s new government, which is predominately Sunni Muslims and the Shiite Iran.

Historically speaking, Sunnis and Shiite Muslims do not get along, however the Muslim Brotherhood believes Muslims are not supposed to fight fellow Muslims and theoretically return to their earlier roots at the time of the prophet Mohammad.

But the Sunnis and Shiites do share one common goal: Destroy Israel and the United States.

Meanwhile here in at home, we have a completely incompetent President that refuses to address the destabilization of the Middle East. Perhaps he really doesn’t care? Perhaps it is just better off for the Arab world to fight against one another and then unite to destroy Israel and then ignore the problem?

Nobody seems to know what is really going on in this man’s head.

Target: Israel

 There seems to be a deep resentment against Israel lately at the height of the Middle East protests, and for a variety of reasons. Shiite Muslims want Israel gone so they can reclaim the 'promise land' and among the list of suspects include Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, al-Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Muslm Brotherhood and yes even, Moammar Gaddafi.

You may be asking yourself why Muslims and al-Qaeda are currently allies right now with the United States to overthrow Gaddafi in Libya. Well, its very simple. If they can rat out the dictator, that means the people Gaddafi has controlled for over four decades will now come under the control of the Muslim Brotherhood, after all the clerical leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, Yusuf al-Qaradawi called for an assassination on Gaddafi.

Isn't it also interesting that Egypt was the only country in the Middle East that helped keep the peace with Israel. After Hosni Mubarak's removal as President, Qaradawi, who was banned from Egypt for many years was seemingly allowed back into the country and he spoke in front of a crowd of the so called 'peaceful' protesters calling for the extermination of Jews.

You would think Adolph Hitler was resurrected. 

Switch back to September of 2010, when President Obama spoke at the United Nations calling for Palestine to become a State by 2011. See the trend?

I don't doubt for a moment that the early protests in Tunisia back in January were a result of people becoming fed up with dictatorial control, poverty, unemployment and shortages. However, there is seemingly an evil throughout the Middle East that have used these protests as a catalyst to do something far more worse.

Strangely, this President has not once called for unification with Israel during these times of crisis. He is a President that you simply cannot take seriously and he himself, seems to harbor some kind of resentment against Israel. If he does want a Palestine state to be established by the end of 2011, wouldn't that mean the removal of Israel? I can't see why a terrorist organization like Hamas would suddenly decide to surrender and become friends with Israel over night, since they are largely occupied in the Palestinian region.

But perhaps nobody is more anti-Israel than the Jew hater himself, George Soros, someone who actually participated in the extermination of Jews during Hitler's reign in Nazi Germany. He was quoted as saying"Israel is the major stumbling block for world peace."

Perhaps Soros and his puppet Obama actually want Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to throw a nuclear bomb in Israel's direction?

Yes, it is a serious question.

Libyan unrest; Gaddafi wants civil war?

First it was Tunisia, then Egypt, followed by Algeria, Jordan, Yemen, Bahrain, Morocco and now Libya has finally been added to the growing list of nations throughout the Middle East and North Africa demanding removal of governments by its people.

Initially, Libya seemed to be able to block earlier protests last month, promising to provide housing to its people after minor protests began following the unrest in Tunisia. Seems like the Libyans want a little bit more than just free housing, or maybe the Muslim Brotherhood just wants all dictators removed so they can destroy Israel and take back "their" land and establish Shariah Law.

Well, Libya's people started protesting last week demanding change in government. However, Libya's Supreme Leader, Muammar Gaddafi who has been in control since 1969, is refusing to leave. It is basically the same situation as it was in Tunisia and Egypt. The difference is that Tunisian President Ben Ali dissolved the government and fled the country and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak tried to hold on to power attempting to keep the Muslim Brotherhood influence out of his country. So in Tunisia, you have a cowardly dictator who runs away and in Egypt, you have an equally vicious dictator but helped keep the peace with Israel and cooperated with the United States against many terrorist groups.

However in Libya, Gaddafi has ruled with an iron fist and the country has never been friendly, if ever, to the United States. Now Gaddafi, dressed in his trademark turban, robe and sun glasses that makes him look like a total idiotic version of a "hippie Hitler" is encouraging a Civil War in his country among the protesters and his supporters. In the week since the upheaval began, thousands of people have been injured, and over a thousand killed.

Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood has called for an assassination of Gaddafi just yesterday. Fine. But isn't it interesting that Gaddafi and the Muslim Brotherhood hate Israel with a dire passion, yet the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood doesn't seem to be bothered at all about someone putting a bullet in Gaddafi? True, a dictator like Gaddafi should probably be killed. The answer to this is because the Muslim Brotherhood wants all governments in the Middle East removed, so they can have complete and total control of the region and see it spread like wild fires.

This is the confusion in the mainstream news media. You see people that are protesting against a corrupt government, but they are not looking "behind the scenes" of the real threat.

George Soros' false views on Egypt chaos

There is nothing more sickening when you happen to listen to a multi-billionaire spew some false conciliatory overture, when the real motives are already set in place.

Such is the case with billionaire George Soros, known for his philanthropy work, promoting socialist ideals and helping collapse the economies of countries including the United Kingdom and Thailand.

At the height of the "Day of Departure" protests in Egypt as hundreds of thousands of protesters call for the removal of President Mubarak, there is something else "brewing" in the middle of all this.

Since the uprising in the Middle East began last month, there have been some lingering questions as to why it is all of a sudden playing out now. One might say that the people in these countries simply were fed up with their dictatorial leaders and vowed to fight back, which is certainly true to some extent. There is no question that people in other countries grow tired of an unfair authoritarian rule.

In another perspective, there is the idea that this was orchestrated from the very beginning, and people like George Soros stand to receive a great deal of financial wealth if the Middle East continues its current decline.

Here's an interesting scenario that people are failing to address. Back in 2009, when the Iranian people protested for the removal of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, all President Obama said was "The Iranian people are the ones to choose who their leader is." Here, there was virtually no interference from the United States in a country that is slowly, but surely, becoming a real threat to the Middle East and not to mention, Ahmadinejad himself is a modern day Hitler.

Yet now, President Obama is all over Egypt,  calling for the immediate resignation of President Mubarak and wants his current Vice President to take control of the country. Egypt on the other hand is telling the United States to "mind its own business".

They have a point.

The real threat again lies in the possibility of the Muslim Brotherhood getting into Egypt's government. This is why President Mubarak has refused to resign and why Egypt is telling the United States to back off. 

How does all of this relate to George Soros? Yesterday, he had his own analysis of Egypt's situation, and when you read his work, it is meant to sound so caring and supportive of human rights... all you have to do is read between the lines:

"The Muslim Brotherhood's cooperation with Mohamed ElBaradei, the Nobel laureate who is seeking to run for president, is a hopeful sign that it intends to play a constructive role in a democratic political system. As regards contagion, it is more likely to endanger the enemies of the United States - Syria and Iran - than our allies, provided that they are willing to move out ahead of the avalanche."

Well there is the old saying of keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Mr. Soros is indicating that the Muslim Brotherhood has cooperation with a hopeful candidate to succeed President Mubarak, even though the Muslim Brotherhood has not formally endorsed ElBaradei. Should it also be mentioned that ElBaradei is familiar with Iran's nuclear program and has consistently indicated that Iran is not a threat? Even if ElBaradei was endorsed by the Muslim Brotherhood, what role would they have in influencing radical change throughout the Middle East?

 Mr. Soros continued that "the main stumbling block is Israel. In reality, Israel has as much to gain from the spread of democracy in the Middle East as the United States has. But Israel is unlikely to recognize its own best interests because the change is too sudden and carries too many risks."

Really? What would Israel gain if Egypt's government was controlled by the Muslim Brotherhood? War with Lebanon or Iran? Slaughtering millions of Jews? His final theory seems to be aimed at replacing every single dictator in the Middle East with a new government, overshadowed by radical Islam.

It shouldn't hurt to say that Mr. Soros, like many internationalists on this planet have connections to investment bankers in the Middle East that have been financing terrorism including al-Qaeda.

It may sound somewhat conspiratorial, but Mr. Soros has always been abiding we always need a New World Order, and one of the ways to set the process of creating one, is by collapsing governments. Once a government is collapsed, some people stand to make a great deal of money off the pandemonium.

It would not surprise me if Mr. Soros carried this out.

Prisoners in Egypt released by Hezbollah

Egypt continues to look like nothing more than a war zone out of some Hollywood action movie.

The situation has grown from bad to worse as protesters and supporters of President Mubarak took to the streets for a violent battle. Gun fire, beatings, Molotov cocktails being thrown, its pure pandemonium. Journalists and world class reporters including Anderson Cooper and Christiane Amanpour have been in the middle of the crossfire and today, a Fox News crew were severely beaten and were taken to a hospital.

But that's not all that gone from bad to worse. Reuters reported that Hezbollah, which recently collapsed Lebanon's government, managed to help several of its members escape from prison in Egypt at the height of the chaos. In addition, thousands of other inmates were also able to escape, and with the Egyptian military and police force concentrating all of their efforts on the protests, a few of them have managed to muzzle their way back to the Gaza Strip.

Just moments ago, Ms. Amanpour, having dealt with getting attacked by the mob of protesters yesterday in Cairo, managed to finally talk with President Mubarak himself. In a ABC news exclusive, President Mubarak told Ms. Amanpour that "I'm fed up, I want to go, but if I resign today, there will be chaos..."

President Mubarak does have a point. There is no question that the people in Egypt are fed up with an authoritarian rule, but if he does cease power, this is one step further in what the Muslim Brotherhood wants, which again, is to destabilize the region and unite radical Islam to get rid of Israel.

Meanwhile, as expected, Iran is cheering for the protests in Egypt. Just like the Obama Administration is doing by the way.

Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi says the protests are a sign of "Islamic Renaissance" and that "any opposition to the movement of the Egyptian people ... will bring about the anger and hatred of all Muslims around the world..."

This is also what Iran wants and will have no problem in helping Hezbollah establish its goal here, which is to dominate the entire Middle East under an Islamic rule.

Protests in Egypt continue to grow

It does not seem that the protests in Egypt will go away anytime soon. Of the many North African and Middle Eastern nations protesting for the removal of their dictatorial leaders, Egypt seems to be the most tense. While protesters are calling for a million people to take to the streets demanding President Mubarak's removal, thus far, it seems that little is deterring him.

Last week, as the protesters grew into large crowds onto the streets on Cairo, President Mubarak removed his entire cabinet, hoping to calm down the tone, but it did nothing. Instead members of Egypt's own police force, actually sided with the protesters and its army actually called the protests 'legitimate'. That's saying quite a bit for a country that represses freedom of expression.

Now it is very likely that Mubarak may eventually resign, as the pressure is mounting and today he did call for a new government and even shoved the Interior Minister aside, which is the head of the nation's security forces that has been battling the upheaval since it began.

But there is still some strange contradictions going on here in the United States and the response to Egypt's protest movement. Vice President Joe Biden stated that President Mubarak was not a dictator and should not step down, while Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appeared on ABC's Sunday morning news show This Week with Christiane Amanpour stating that there "needs to be reform". Meanwhile, President Obama called for the same reform and that "the United States is committed to working with the Egyptian government and the Egyptian people, from all quarters to achieve it, and around the world governments have an obligation to respond to their citizens..."

Oh is that right? The Federal Government gave no response to the American people when they called for an end of corruption under President Bush and now under your tenure Mr. President, but I digress...

The single most important factor that this Administration is failing to consider is that if and when President Mubarak is removed, regardless of his authoritarian rule in Egypt, this means there could be a very good possibility that the Muslim Brotherhood could take control, thus causing the Middle Eastern region to become destabilized.

Egypt as one of the United States' closest allies in that region of the world, has helped us protect Israel and against al-Qaeda terrorists. The last thing we need right now is for Egypt to collapse and bring that portion of the world one step closer to taking Israel out.

There is great admiration from the protesters in Egypt who want a freer society without an authoritarian rule, as it struggles with poverty, inflation, unemployment and shortages. However, could the Middle East be any better if Mubarak steps aside?

Regardless of the looting, destruction and death that has occurred throughout Egypt in the last week, the protesters are vowing to not stop, until Mubarak is out.

Protests in Middle East not a good thing?

There is heavy concern right now with relation to the continued protests in North Africa and the Middle East. As everyone is no doubt already aware, there has been political unrest in a growing list of countries including Tunisia, Algeria, Lebanon, Yemen and most recently inspiring riots against Hosni Mubarak's authoritarian regime in Egypt.

Thus far, the protests from these nations' people are meant to call for an end of the wrath of dictatorship from their leaders, and establish more solvent countries without the crisis of inflation, shortages, poverty and high unemployment.

Many economists did not expect Egypt to revolt against its own government. Well, that obviously was not the case. As of today, the riots in Egypt have become so bad, that members of the country's own police force decided to join the people and for the first time in history, an entire country shut down its internet access to try and isolate its people from the outside. Also today, President Mubarak agreed to fire his entire cabinet, but still refused to step aside.

President Obama has been cheering on the riots, but asking for a more civil and non-violent approach and also called for President Mubarak to engage in this more civil tone with Egypt's people, or the United States will cut off aid to the country.

Now the first argument to this of course is going to be that the United States should just mind its own business. Well, despite the fact that the people in these countries want new government and leadership, there is also something else which might determine that the escalating tension in the Middle East is not a good thing.

As WikiLeaks uncovered the secret cables concerning our beloved Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the knowledge she hid from the American people over Saudi Arabia's involvement in financing terrorism, they have also uncovered documentation of Ms. Clinton's pressure on Middle Eastern nations in particular to push for government reform. One of those nations was Egypt.

So now, the Middle East is in a position of reform, by the riots we've seen from their people. But what kind of reform is it leading to?

Egypt is one of the United States' most trusted allies in the Middle East and they're one of very few countries that has peace with Israel. If Egypt's government entirely collapses, which apparently it is as we speak, this means Sharia Law could be imposed, which is dominated by Muslims. Is it just a surprise that radical Muslims want to whip out Israel?

We should all see the common trend here and it looks rather frightening. Meanwhile, Lebanon's entire government has collapsed and they're trying to shove Hezbollah leaders down that country's throat, who by the way, also want to destroy Israel.

The protests that started in Yemen? They have not been entirely successful on riding al-Qaeda out of their country.

Iran? A clown like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is just waiting in the wings with his nuclear plans. He's already an ally of Hezbollah, and the destabilization in Egypt is the last 'piece of the puzzle' to finally get Israel off the face of the Earth.

Yet, we hear virtually nothing from our leaders in Washington about these common factors, nor the fact that right now we are on the brink of beginning to witness a full scale war in the Middle East.

Like everyone else that HAS seen this trend, I hope I'm wrong.

Iran backs Lebanon; asks U.S. and Israel to stop interfering

The circus in the Middle East is asking the United States and Israel to stop interference with Lebanon's recently collapsed government. When I say circus, I'm referring to the joke that is Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Ahmadinejad responded on Lebanon's situation: "I tell the Zionists and the U.S. ... be ashamed of your interference in Lebanon and be sure that the Lebanese and regional nations will chop your dirty hands off." 


He went on to say that each time the United States interferes in any country in the Middle East, it makes things much more complicated and that Lebanon can take care of itself.

This is a president that is basically for the most part, offering safe haven to the Militant Shiite group Hezbollah, which effectively collapsed Lebanon's unity government last week when its representative ministers resigned because Hezbollah remains at the top of the list of an international tribunal in the assassination of former Lebanon Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. Hezbollah is hoping to establish a new power in Lebanon and to possibly wage a new war on Israel sometime down the road.

Hezbollah has issued a warning that they will "cut off the hands" of anyone who blames any member of the group for Hariri assassination. But the pressure is mounting. While Lebanon's government remains ineffective for the most part, Israel is basically having to battle enemies from all sides by itself and will have one more thing to worry about if Hezbollah gets it way. On the same front, Iran has a nuclear program which is for the most part, aimed at Israel and resentment is harbored by other Middle East nations after Israel was accused of carrying out the assassination on a leader of Hamas.

Things right now in the Middle East are not at all calm. President Obama might want to start getting serious that this idea of international talks and relations is not working. The Middle East could care less about this idea of peace. They want Israel out. If the United States chooses to do nothing, that entire region of the world may become a much larger threat than was anticipated.

Hezbollah collapses Lebanon's government

Earlier this week, Lebanon's government collapsed following the resignations of 11 ministers, 10 of which were representatives of the Militant Shiite Hezbollah, which opposes the parliament. The two main reasons as to why its government collapsed is because Hezbollah is hoping to establish a new form of government without a parliamentary and it would mean no further action can take place regarding indictments in the assassination of former Lebanese prime minister Rafik Hariri from 2005, which the international tribunal is investigating. By collapsing Lebanon's government, Hezbollah has effectively ceased the tribunal's investigation and indictments because wouldn't you know it, Hezbollah is at the top of the tribunal's suspect list for Hariri's assassination.

It is quite obvious what is happening here, because Hariri is the father of Lebanon's current prime minister Saad Hariri and apparent that Hezbollah is hoping to stifle his investigation and opposition of their radical agenda, and remove him from his position. With this current situation growing, some leaders are fearing that the country could lead to the brink of turmoil including violence on the streets.

Of course Lebanon has had problems like this for many years. Find any country in the Middle East that doesn't have these radical problems from militant or terrorist groups, its not necessarily "new" news. Lebanon itself has had to deal with government turmoil before, which include a laundry list of never-ending problems such as assassinations, bombings, a war with Israel and at one point, almost went to the brink of civil war back in 2008. Just about every country over there, with the exception of Israel, hates the United States and they want to kill us.

But coming to a more political standpoint, it seems completely logical to conclude that with President Obama having to deal with all of our problems here, it is the right opportunity for an issue to start over there. Lebanon, is becoming more aggressive like Iran, and they know President Obama does not want to engage in becoming the world police or having to assist in going to war. It occurs to me however, if Lebanon's new government eventually is re-established as being completely dominated by Hezbollah, could also mean another war on Israel.

You think Iran will miss out on an opportunity to help Hezbollah if they want to rage another war on Israel? I think not. So while the resentment continues to grow in the Middle East, some people in Washington right now are continuing to not pay much attention, if any, to this new development that Lebanon is functioning without a government and becoming increasingly dominated by a radical militant group, and most likely, nobody is going to admit that they'll pose as a potential threat to Israel.

But I'll say it here.
