Marco Rubio Gets It Jennifer Rubin 06.11.2010 - 7:06 AM Marco Rubio addressed a gathering of Jewish Republicans in Florida on Thursday. The entire speech should be read in full. It is frankly the best speech on Israel since George W. Bush went to the Knesset. A few points are most noteworthy. First, he understands that the flotilla incident is part of a larger history and that America in the past has responded quite differently when Israel was assaulted for defending itself: Support for Israel by the United States in a time of crisis has been a given for over 60 years. And yet, lately, there is the emerging sense that this long-standing relationship isn’t what it used to be. We are ...
Osama bin Laden corpse photo is fake

An image apparently showing a dead Osama bin Laden broadcast on Pakistani television and picked up by British newspaper websites is a fake. The bloodied image of a man with matted hair and a blank, half-opened eye has been circulating on the internet for the past two years. It was used on the front pages of the Mail, Times, Telegraph, Sun and Mirror websites, though swiftly removed after the fake was exposed on Twitter. It appears the fake picture was initially published by the Middle East online newspaper themedialine.org on 29 April 2009, with a warning from the editor that it was "unable to ascertain whether the photo is genuine or not". Since then, however, the image has ...

5 Females Found With Throats Slashed in Acapulco ACAPULCO, Mexico – Police in Acapulco say four women and a teenage girl have been found with their throats cut in the Mexican resort city.

They had been stripped of their clothes and their hands and feet were tied. The other two victims were found separately in other parts of Acapulco — one in an abandoned car and the other on a street behind a church. Acapulco has seen violent turf battles among at least three drug gangs. ...

VATICAN CITY — Pope John Paul II's coffin was exhumed on Friday ahead of his beatification as tens of thousands of people began arriving in Rome for one of the biggest events since his funeral in 2005. The Vatican said the coffin was removed from the crypts below St. Peter's Basilica while top Vatican officials and some of the late pope's closest aides looked on and prayed. Those present at the ceremony included Cardinal Stanislaw Dziwisz, his personal secretary and right-hand man for decades, and the Polish nuns who ran the papal household for 27 years. The wooden coffin will be placed in front of the main altar of St. Peter's Basilica. After Sunday's ...

Files suggest elder Obama forced to leave Harvard President Barack Obama's father was forced to leave Harvard University before completing his Ph.D. in economics because the school was concerned about his personal life and finances, according to newly public immigration records. Harvard had asked the Immigration and Naturalization Service to delay a request by Barack Hussein Obama Sr. to extend his stay in the U.S., "until they decided what action they could take in order to get rid of him," immigration official M.F. McKeon wrote in a June 1964 memo. Harvard administrators, the memo stated, "were having difficulty with his financial arrangements and couldn't seem ...

China’s Communist Regime Disappears Critics April 25, 2011 The murderous communist regime ruling China has been cracking down on opponents in recent weeks and months, disappearing dozens of the nation’s most prominent human-rights activists and lawyers. While the world is watching, the Chinese government continues to intensify its clamp down on critics with zealous brutality and vengeance in what experts say is one of the fiercest episodes of repression in years. Among the most prominent to be abducted was Ai Weiwei, probably China’s best-known artist internationally. He had been embarrassing the regime for years, suffering brutal beatings at the hands of China’s ...

TEENAGE thieves targeting vans parked on a council estate forced open the doors of one - and were confronted by four SAS men on a stakeout. Two of the Who Dares Wins heroes stayed put while the other two chased the panic-stricken tearaways and gave them "a bit of a slap". The SAS surveillanced team was on a night-time counter-terrorism training exercise in Manchester. A source said: "The lads each had a machine gun and a side pistol with live ammunition to make it realistic. They saw these scrotes coming for some time. "They were trying their luck on every van in the estate, looking for tools they could pinch. "One of the team was resting, one on standby, one ...
Age of America nears end

For the first time, the international organization has set a date for the moment when the “Age of America” will end and the U.S. economy will be overtaken by that of China. And it’s a lot closer than you may think. According to the latest IMF official forecasts, China’s economy will surpass that of America in real terms in 2016 — just five years from now. Put that in your calendar. It provides a painful context for the budget wrangling taking place in Washington, D.C., right now. It raises enormous questions about what the international security system is going to look like in just a handful of years. And it casts a deepening cloud over both the U.S. dollar and ...

France’s Immigration Lessons For America by Rachel Marsden, 04/24/2011 Republican Arizona Governor Jan Brewer may not know it, but she has a soul mate in her efforts to control her state’s immigration problems in light of federal government inaction. French President Nicolas Sarkozy has also faced accusations of racism and fascism in defending the interests of the territory he was elected to protect and serve. Like Brewer, he’s struggling with a legislative straightjacket imposed by a higher level of government – in his case, the European Union. If Brewer has been attacked, Sarkozy has arguably seen far worse. The lesson? Just keep going. As has been the case since ...

The Chinese Role Model Collapses on the Progressives By Ed Lasky For years, China's high-speed rail and green energy programs have been portrayed as miracles that America must follow to remain "in the game." During the last two years and counting, American taxpayers have been put on the hook for tens of billions of dollars as Barack Obama and Democrats in Congress promote agendas that would supposedly emulate China and lead us to Nirvana. What is the trouble with this picture? It has been one giant mirage. The Washington Post runs a column by one of their finest journalists, Charles Lane, that honestly portrays the Chinese high-speed train project as being a high-speed ...

A DAD-of-four who split up a fight in a McDonald’s was shot dead moments after being told he wouldn’t see the morning.
Raymond Mitchell, 34, had only popped into the restaurant to buy a hot chocolate.
But he apparently caused offence after splitting up two men fighting in the queue.
One of them, who had several gold teeth, shouted at Raymond: “You are gonna die tonight, you are not gonna see the morning.”
The thug is then said to have phoned an accomplice to fetch a gun, yelling into his mobile: “Bring me that thing.”
Raymond left the 24-hour McDonald’s but was chased into a cul-de-sac. The gun was then delivered and Mr Mitchell was beaten and pistol-whipped before being shot ...
Carving Up Pakistan: The Balochistan Gambit

Bangkok, Thailand April 22, 2011 - With NATO providing Al Qaeda air cover in Libya as they commit an array of egregious war crimes in their bid to seize the country, the last shred of legitimacy for America's official narrative regarding their war on the Afghan-Pakistani border disappears before our eyes. However, a more rational explanation for the seemingly irrational campaign of frequent General Atomic* Predator drone attacks on Pakistani soil is not only on the table, but has been put there by the global corporate-financier oligarchs themselves. To understand US-Pakistan relations within the context of the entirely fake "War on Terror" is impossible. Al Qaeda is merely ...

Yesterday, the criminal organization known as Los Zetas, managed to outmaneuver the Mexican military and penetrated Gulf Drug Cartel territory. In what appeared to be a carefully planned operation, Los Zetas lured the military outside the border town of Miguel Aleman, Mexico to fight them in rural areas and back roads While the military was pre-occupied trying to catch the criminals outside the border town, several Zeta convoys moved in from the west.
An anonymous phone call was received by the military, mentioning that a battle between the Gulf Drug Cartel and Los Zetas was about to take place in Miguel Aleman. When the military turned its convoys around to head back to town, they ...

The Green Nazis By Mark Musser One of the most intriguing facts of the Nazi Party membership rolls is how many of its adherents belonged to what today would be considered the green movement. Even many ‘greens' who were not Nazi Party members, like Leni Riefenstahl (1902-2003), the infamous propaganda filmmaker for the Third Reich, became caught up in the new movement. Nazi biologist Walther Schoenichen asserted that National Socialism was the political fulfillment of more 100 years of German Romanticism. With its strong emphasis upon celebrating the authenticity of the German folk people (das volk) indigenously rooted in the natural landscape of their homeland in great contrast ...

Israel warned the United Nations Security Council on Thursday not to allow a new flotilla to sail to Gaza, saying that the flotilla organizers had "ties to Hamas and other terrorist organizations." Another flotilla to Gaza is being planned for May, one year after Israel's deadly raid on the aid flotilla that sailed from Turkey. The new flotilla being planned is larger than the last one, with 15 ships that will transport over 1,000 people in an attempt to break Israel's naval blockade on the Strip. While speaking to the UN on Thursday, Israel's UN Ambassador Meron Reuben said, "Numerous participants engaged in the planning of this flotilla have made very ...
Ahmadinejad grooms chief-of-staff to take over as Iran's president

A close ally of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who favours cultural openness and opposes greater clerical involvement in politics, is being groomed as a possible successor to the Iranian president when he steps down in two years time. Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei, Ahmadinejad's chief-of-staff, is positioning himself as a candidate who will champion a nationalist rather than a theological narrative of Iran. Mashaei, whose daughter married Ahmadinejad's son, has become the most controversial political figure in Iran, provoking harsh criticism from the conservative establishment, including the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Hardliners close to Khamenei have accused Mashaei of ...

HAVANA — Cuba's Transportation Ministry on Thursday denied claims by a U.S. housing company that the island nation is to blame for the loss of a barge carrying humanitarian aid to Haiti. A Cuban tugboat received a distress call from the "Muheet" just before midnight Nov. 30, and responded promptly, the ministry said in a statement. It says the tug began towing the ship and its two barges, but high seas prompted both captains to decide to head for port with the ship and return later for the barges. One was deemed a total loss while the other was salvaged, the statement said. It added that an inspection found expired permits and insufficient anchor capability. ...
Venezuelan trade plans to backfire?

Like the South American independence hero Simón Bolívar, his modern-day disciple Hugo Chávez dreams of unifying the region, to stand stronger against the “imperialist threat”. But if trade is anything to go by – an excellent way to bring regions closer together – the success of Chávez’s “Bolivarian revolution” has so far been mixed. This Friday 22nd April, Venezuela’s membership in the Andean Community of Nations (CAN), the regional trade bloc now comprising just Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia, finally expires. It is being described as a “death blow” to the group, with trade between Venezuela and Colombia ...
