Bangkok, Thailand July 3, 2011 - Unexpected is a newspaper that allegedly is reputable, to overtly abandon objectivity and even reality so thoroughly, you can almost hear the author screaming and ripping out fistfuls of hair as they feverishly write their column. It was no surprise that this hacky article first came to my attention via the "Project on Middle East Democracy," a National Endowment for Democracy-funded project that has been helping coax fake-revolutions throughout the Arab world.Photo: With well over 100 soldiers killed in Syria, the "vast majority" of the protesters most certainly are not "unarmed civilians." ....The article is titled, "Rep. ...

As Ma'an cites the lead organizer, Col. Ann Wright... "The Greeks declared that there would be no boats leaving from Greece to Gaza, no boats at all," organizer Ann Wright told reporters as the ship was being escorted back to shore, where coastguard officials said the activists would not likely be arrested, but were being kept on board the vessel. "If we did not comply with what we said they would board us," she said, confirming that the decision to turn around was made by the captain and seconded by organizers. "Confronting the Israelis is one thing, but here in Greek waters, that is not what we are about," Wright said, though activists on board said ...

This eye-witness account is from Paul Wilkinson, president of the Altamont Park Neighborhood Association: Tonight, around 11 p.m., a group of at least 60-70 African American youth marched down one of the side streets (W. Thrush) to the 4 lane main drag (Sheridan). They were yelling threats to white residents. Things such as we need to kill all the white people around here. They were physically intimidating anyone calling for help from the police. They were surrounding cars. Cars on the main drag had to slam on their brakes to either avoid the youth blocking not only all four lanes, but a large section of the side street as well. Fights were breaking out among them. They were rushing ...

Tea Party Reps Split On War Cash For US In Libya

1 Comments
The House's tea party caucus is deeply split over whether to defund President Barack Obama's military intervention in Libya. The 59 spending-conscious Republicans oppose Obama's decision to participate in the NATO-led operation without consulting Congress. But only 31 members of the caucus voted for a bill to strip federal dollars for American forces there. Missouri's Todd Aiken said he voted to strip the federal cash because, he said, U.S. interests were not clearly threatened. But Indiana's Mike Pence was one of 27 Republicans to vote against cutting off funding in an effort, he said, to support American forces already engaged in the conflict. Minnesota Rep. Michele ...

Obamanoids (yes they're still out there) are eagerly circulating the following You Tube clip of the President silencing a crying baby by holding it in his arms. It's just a shame that Obama has also proven adept at silencing babies in north Africa, by murdering them as part of his unconstitutional onslaught against Libya. "So glad I voted for him. Finally a president of which I can be proud," wrote one commenter in response to the clip. "Suck on that gop douche bags. He is also the comforter-in-chief. 4 more years and we'll turn things around so you c**ts can ruin everything in 2016," added another. "Sooooooo adorable!! This was wonderful and that's ...

Italy breaks ranks over NATO's Libya mission ROME (AFP) – Italy called for a suspension of hostilities in Libya on Wednesday in the latest sign of dissent within NATO as the civilian death toll mounts and Moamer Kadhafi shows no signs of quitting power. "We have seen the effects of the crisis and therefore also of NATO action not only in eastern and southwestern regions but also in Tripoli," Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini told a parliamentary committee meeting. "I believe an immediate humanitarian suspension of hostilities is required in order to create effective humanitarian corridors," while negotiations should also continue on a more formal ...

Speaker John Boehner says President Barack Obama lacks the support of members of the House for authorizing the U.S. military operation in Libya. Speaking to reporters Wednesday, Boehner acknowledged the effort by Republican Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham to endorse the mission. But he said he doesn't think the House shares that view. Boehner complained that Obama has not made his case to Congress and the nation for U.S. participation in the NATO-led operation. He said the president hasn't spelled out the national interest in the effort to challenge Moammar Gadhafi. House Republicans will be meeting behind closed doors Wednesday afternoon to weigh two resolutions — one ...

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., warned in a Senate floor speech Tuesday aimed at House Republicans that they could come to regret a vote to cut funding for the military operation in Libya. McCain made the comments while introducing a bill to authorize limited military force in the North African nation. "Someday, a Republican will again occupy the White House, and that president may need to commit U.S. armed forces to hostilities," McCain said. "So if my Republican colleagues are indifferent to how their actions would affect this president, I would urge them to think seriously about how a vote to cut off funding for this military operation could come back to haunt a future ...

"Although we are still determining the specifics of this event, indications are that a weapons system failure may have caused this incident," said Lieutenant-General Charles Bouchard, Commander of Operation Unified Protector in a statement. NATO said a military missile site was the intended target of the air strikes and acknowledged the civilian casualties. Early on Sunday Libyan officials took reporters to a residential area in Tripoli's Souq al-Juma district where the reporters saw several bodies being pulled out of the rubble of a destroyed building.

Even as the Obama administration prepares to launch a full ground war in Libya while expanding its drone attacks inside Yemen and Pakistan, US warships are being moved towards the Mediterrenean coast of Syria, precisely in line with forecasts that the Bilderberg Group intended to launch a massive new war in the Middle East, with Syria being its prime target. In addition to information received by Infowars from military sources at Ft. Hood who tell us that troops are being readied for a full-scale U.S.-led ground invasion of Libya by October, the Obama administration is simultaneously considering opening up yet another front, by moving the USS Bataan amphibian air carrier strike ...

(06-17) 19:30 PDT WASHINGTON, (AP) -- President Barack Obama decided he could continue the air war in Libya without congressional approval despite rulings to the contrary from Justice Department and Pentagon lawyers, according to published reports. The president relied instead on the opinions of other senior administration lawyers that continuing U.S. participation in the air operations against the regime of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi did not constitute "hostilities," triggering the need for Congressional permission under the War Powers Resolution, the New York Times reported in its online edition Friday night. Among those reported to support the president's action were ...

Russia and China teamed up this week against the NATO military campaign against Muammar Gaddafi in Libya. The north African nation has faced on-again, off-again arial attacks against strategic military positions since the UN Security Council issued a no fly zone resolution on March 17. The resolution was a response to Gaddafi’s attacks against civilian anti-government protesters. In a joint declaration signed in the Kremlin, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Chinese President Hu Jintao emphasized once more the need for political solutions to the Libya crisis, as well as the ongoing dispute about Iran and North Korea nuclear programs, the Shanghai Times reported on Friday.

White House Defends Continuing U.S. Role in Libya Operation WASHINGTON — The White House, pushing hard against criticism in Congress over the deepening air war in Libya, asserted Wednesday that President Obama had the authority to continue the military campaign without Congressional approval because American involvement fell short of full-blown hostilities. In a 38-page report sent to lawmakers describing and defending the NATO-led operation, the White House said the mission was prying loose Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi’s grip on power. In contending that the limited American role did not oblige the administration to ask for authorization under the War Powers Resolution, the report ...

WASHINGTON — The White House is telling Congress that President Obama has the legal authority to continue American participation in the NATO-led air war in Libya, even though lawmakers have not authorized it. In a broader package of materials the Obama administration is sending to Congress on Wednesday defending its Libya policy, the White House, for the first time, offers lawmakers and the public an argument for why Mr. Obama has not been violating the War Powers Resolution since May 20. On that day, the Vietnam-era law’s 60-day deadline for terminating unauthorized hostilities appeared to pass. But the White House argued that the activities of United States military forces in ...

To date, government policy elitists in the United States have demonstrated almost complete ignorance towards revised, adaptive and forward strategic planning. While virtually every military officer and many policy “wonks” have been taught strategic planning at some level, it is obvious many have thrown most of the lessons out the door upon graduating. This is demonstrated more than ever by our senior Generals, Admirals, and Defense and State Department and Intelligence political appointees. One only needs to observe the international scene and turmoil in Afghanistan and the Middle East. The time is now to change strategy and reposition our Forces for present and future operation. ...

DERA ISMAIL KHAN, Pakistan — A top al-Qaida commander and possible replacement for Osama bin Laden was killed in an American drone-fired missile strike close to the Afghan border, the militant group he heads and a Pakistani intelligence official said Saturday. Ilyas Kashmiri's death is another blow to al-Qaida just over a month after bin Laden was killed by American commandos in a northwest Pakistani army town. Described by U.S. officials as al-Qaida's military operations chief in Pakistan, he was one of five most-wanted militant leaders in the country, accused in a string of bloody attacks, including the 2008 Mumbai massacre. His death was not confirmed publicly by the ...

In an effort to satisfy those arguing he needs to seek congressional authorization to continue US military activity in accordance with the War Powers Resolution, President Obama wrote a letter to congressional leaders this afternoon suggesting that the role is now so “limited” he does not need to seek congressional approval. “Since April 4,” the president wrote, “U.S. participation has consisted of: (1) non-kinetic support to the NATO-led operation, including intelligence, logistical support, and search and rescue assistance; (2) aircraft that have assisted in the suppression and destruction of air defenses in support of the no-fly zone; and (3) since April 23, ...

The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because the speech has not been formally announced.

WASHINGTON — President Obama insisted that the assault force hunting down Osama bin Laden last week be large enough to fight its way out of Pakistan if confronted by hostile local police officers and troops, senior administration and military officials said Monday. In revealing additional details about planning for the mission, senior officials also said that two teams of specialists were on standby: One to bury Bin Laden if he was killed, and a second composed of lawyers, interrogators and translators in case he was captured alive. That team was set to meet aboard a Navy ship, most likely the aircraft carrier Carl Vinson in the North Arabian Sea. Mr. Obama’s decision to ...
