9/11 War Criminals Want Platform for Views

2009-11-22T13:10:00.021-05:00

As China Confidential predicted within minutes of the awful news that the Islamist-appeasing Obama administration had decided to bring the 9/11 war criminals to New York City for a civilian court trial, their lawyer confirms that they intend to use the trial as a platform for communicating their perfidious views to the public.

Obama should be impeached.

Israel is World's Top Patent Producer

2009-11-22T12:51:00.003-05:00

Little Israel is the top patent producer, as reported here.

Israel's economic miracle contrasts sharply with the miserable performance of the "Muslim world," which America's first Muslim-born President (according to Islamic law) has sought to elevate to the level of a transnational superpower through his odious outreach and appeasement policies. Except for Arab and Iranian oil, Muslim countries produce nothing of value to modern civilization.

Islamonazi Iran Again Vows to Hit Tel Aviv

2009-11-21T17:50:00.027-05:00

Iran has again vowed to hit Tel Aviv, having already threatened to "burn" the city--Israel's commercial and cultural capital and main population center--if the Islamist nation comes under attack over its nuclear program. Click here for the story.

The turbaned tyranny is begging for a bombing--a nuclear bombing. Israel's first duty is to protect its citizens. Iran and its Lebanese proxy, Hitlerian Hezbollah, boast that they have amassed enough missiles to end Israel's existence. The countdown to conflict has begun.

Barack Obama's appeasement of Islamonazi Iran has made another war in the Middle East inevitable, just as Neville Chamberlain's appeasement of Nazi Germany made World War II inevitable. Worse than Chamberlain, who sincerely believed he was preserving the peace in Europe, but made the mistake of misreading Hitler's intentions, believing he would be satisfied with limited territorial concessions, Obama has actually sought to align with Islamist Iran--and Islamism in general--in a craven attempt to strike a Grand Bargain for the pacification of Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Israel is not--and will not allow itself to become--another Czechoslovakia. The Islamonazis are playing with nuclear fire.

Islamist Conspiracy or Lone Islamist Terrorist?

2009-11-21T14:45:00.026-05:00

The American traitor U.S. Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan is an Islamist terrorist. That much was known within hours of his attack on his unarmed comrades at Fort Hood. There is growing evidence that he did not act alone. Click here for the story, which an Islamist-appeasing administration and adoring, liberal media outlets are bent on suppressing or spinning.

They will make every effort possible to cover up the Islamist connections to the slaughter, which highlights the Islamist fifth column threat to U.S. national security and the nation's vulnerability, more than eight years after 9/11, to Mumbai-style swarming attacks by domestic and alien Islamist terrorists.

A Conservative Jew Responds to 5 Liberal Lies

2009-11-21T11:58:00.086-05:00

Liberal Lie #1: Islam is peaceful and beautiful.

Response: Islam is an inherently intolerant and warlike religion that has become synonymous with its most militant elements--for good reason. Organized Islam is essentially dominated by Islamists and Islamist apologists and sympathizers. Islamists are clerical fascists who seek global dominance through the imposition of Islamic law across the planet.

Liberal Lie #2: Bush overreacted to 9/11.

Response: President George W. Bush actually under-reacted to the worst-ever attacks on American soil. He should have used any and all available weapons to obliterate the Taliban and Al Qaeda, setting an example for generations to come of the fate that lies in store for those who dare to commit atrocities against the United States. Additionally, Bush should have revoked the visas of all aliens from Muslim countries, and captured, detained, interrogated and imprisoned or deported the estimated 100,000 visa over-stayers from these barbaric places.

Liberal Lie #3: American support for Israel is the root cause of the conflict.

Response: The root cause is Islam--and Islamism, a political ideology that has overtaken the religion. The United States could stop supporting Israel; it could disappear tomorrow (God forbid), and the Islamists would still hate and hope to conquer the U.S. (and Europe) through terrorism, immigration, and conversion.

Liberal Lie #4: Israeli "settlements" in the "West Bank" are another root cause of conflict.

Response: Appeasement and accommodation of Palestinian Arab/Islamist opposition to Israel's very existence is the root cause of conflict. Radical Palestinian Arabs and their Islamist allies aim to destroy Israel, will not rest until they are victorious or crushed. The thriving Israeli towns and villages in the disputed territories of Judea and Samaria, west of the Jordan River, which Israel captured during the defensive war of June 1967 (the Six-Day War), are a source of tension, because they signal Jewish determination to retain sovereignty over liberated parts of the Land of Israel, but by no means a root cause of a more than century-old struggle by the Jewish people for political independence in its historic homeland (which in modern times included both sides of the Jordan River until the British, in 1921, prohibited Jewish settlement in 77% of Palestine--i.e. the entire East Bank--to create Transjordan, which, in 1946, became the Hashemite Kingdom of Transjordan, and, three years later, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan--a country, commonly called Jordan, that is now at peace with Israel). An Israel limited (God forbid) to the greater Tel Aviv area would still be a target for radical Palestinian Arabs and their Islamist allies; they oppose any sort of independent Jewish State, no matter how small. Its existence threatens them theologically and ideologically.

Liberal Lie #5: Diplomacy and dialogue are always good things and therefore always worth pursuing.

Response: Dialogue and diplomacy are means, not ends. In some cases, engaging in dialogue and diplomacy with enemies can be counterproductive, self-defeating, and even suicidal. The lesson of the Munich Pact, for example, is that a totalitarian country that is pursuing an imperialist foreign policy--meaning, a policy that aims to overthrow the status quo and change its power relationships, regionally and globally--cannot be successfully engaged (appeased). Misreading such a country's intentions can be a fatal error, as the world learned in the case of the British/French failure to preserve the peace in Europe by appeasing Nazi Germany. Instead of preventing war, appeasement made it inevitable--on Germany's terms.

U.S. President Barack Obama has not only appeased Islamist Iran; he has tried to align with it and with Islamism in general, seemingly seeing himself as the de facto president of "the Muslim world," in competition with Osama Bin Laden, leader of Al Qaeda, the only Islamist organization, apparently, which is still beyond the pale of U.S. engagement. As a result of Obama's perfidious policies, Iran is another year closer to acquiring atomic arms and ballistic missiles capable of destroying Israel, driving the U.S. from the Middle East--before bringing it to its knees through an indirect and deniable atomic attack--and dominating and intimidating Europe as it steadily Islamizes.

Times and Time Try to Spin Obama China Trip

Click here and here.

Truth be told, Obama's China trip was worse than a failure. Again, the U.S. President put personal/national prestige on the line without careful planing and preparation. As a result, Chinese leaders more than ever see Obama as a weak amateur heading a dying (but still dangerous) hegemon.

Contrary to the drivel from Obama-worshiping pundits and correspondents such as Candy Crowley of CNN, successful summitry is all about preparation. Successful summits are staged and orchestrated. They aren't improvised. Too much is at stake. Emissaries are supposed to do the hard work and heavy lifting ahead of bringing their leaders together. The Chinese know this; Cable TV/Internet-addicted Americans used to know it.

In short, there is a difference between community organizing and political campaigning on the one hand and international diplomacy on the other. The world is not Chicago, a fact Obama may be just beginning to face.
