Obama amputates our nuclear arms

By: Charles Krauthammer

...snippet...

Under President Obama’s new policy, however, if the state that has just attacked us with biological or chemical weapons is “in compliance with the Non-Proliferation Treaty,” explained Gates, then “the U.S. pledges not to use or threaten to use nuclear weapons against it.”

Imagine the scenario: Hundreds of thousands are lying dead in the streets of Boston after a massive anthrax or nerve gas attack. The president immediately calls in the lawyers to determine whether the attacking state is in compliance with the NPT. If it turns out that the attacker is up-to-date with its latest IAEA inspections, well, it gets immunity from nuclear retaliation. (Our response is then restricted to bullets, bombs and other conventional munitions.)

However, if the lawyers tell the president that the attacking state is NPT noncompliant, we are free to blow the bastards to nuclear kingdom come.

This is quite insane. It’s like saying that if a terrorist deliberately uses his car to mow down a hundred people waiting at a bus stop, the decision as to whether he gets hanged or 100 hours of community service hinges entirely on whether his car had passed emissions inspections.

Apart from being morally bizarre, the Obama policy is strategically loopy. Does anyone believe that North Korea or Iran will be more persuaded to abjure nuclear weapons because they could then carry out a biological or chemical attack on the United States without fear of nuclear retaliation?

The naivete is stunning.

Scandal brewing over “kidnapped” Russian drug pilot

20 July, 2010, 10:40

The Russian Foreign Affairs Ministry has sent an official note of protest to
the US State Department after American agents detained a Russian citizen in
Liberia and secretly transported him to the United States.

The detainee is Konstantin Yaroshenko, who is suspected in the US of
attempting to bribe Liberian officials and smuggle cocaine.

Rashid Khalidi Appeals for Funds for Ship to Run Israeli Blockade of Gaza

by Winfield Myers . Jul 20, 2010 at 3:06 pm

http://www.campus-watch.org/blog/2010/07/rashid-khalidi-appeals-for-funds-for-ship-to-run

http://www.campus-watch.org/img/upload/large/120.jpg

Rashid Khalidi

Rashid Khalidi, Edward Said Professor of Arab Studies at Columbia
University, has signed an appeal for funds to outfit a ship—to be named The
Audacity of Hope after Barack Obama’s second book—that will challenge the
Israeli blockade of Gaza in September or October, according to a report by
Robert Mackey
http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/07/20/american-activists-plan-gaza-flotilla-ship-named-for-obama-book/

at The Lede, a blog of the New York
Times. His wife Mona is also a signatory.

The appeal is posted at the site USTOGAZA.ORG http://ustogaza.org/
, which
says the ship will sail from the US to the Eastern Mediterranean, where it
will join ships from “Europe, Canada, India, South Africa and parts of the
Middle East.” The appeal employs the word “we” when speaking of the upcoming
trip, which gives the impression that the signatories intend to be aboard.

The site’s opening paragraph is laden with falsehoods of commission and
omission:

Thanks for finding the link, Granny.
Notice when Zawahiri mocks Zero, it doesn’t even make the news.

Zawahiri said “soon”.

Time for heightened alert, IMO.

Impending health crisis, Open border policies
Time Release WMDs
By Joy Tiz Monday, July 19, 2010

One of the decade’s most underreported stories is the impending health crisis begat by our open border policies. As DC politicians posture, criminals, terrorists, drugs, and weapons flow freely into the country through our Mexican border which has deteriorated into an anarchical combat zone.

snip...

Even leprosy is incubating among the illegal population:

Leprosy, a scourge of Biblical days, is caused by a bacillus agent and is now know as Hansen’s Disease. In the 40 years prior to 2002, there were only 900 total cases of leprosy in the US. In the following three years there have been 9,000 cases and most were illegal aliens.

It’s not only Mexico dispatching mortiferous diseases. Middle Easterners with less than honorable aims are finding it easy to blend into the border crashing camarilla:

Hispanic gangs are now the most powerful criminal operatives in the United States and in much of the world. The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) National Gang Intelligence Center (NGIC) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) estimate that 80 percent of U.S. crime is committed by gangs, including murder, rape, kidnapping, violent assaults, torture, robbery, and identity theft.

Criminal gangs are multiplying and successfully recruiting Hispanics born in the United States and abroad. Islamist terrorists have reached an accord with gangs for assistance in entering the United States without inspection.

(U.S.) Alaska couple to plead guilty to terrorism charges
— AP: “Paul Rockwood Jr. and his wife, Nadia Rockwood, of King Salmon, Alaska, are charged with lying about the list and making false statements about domestic terrorism during interviews with FBI agents in May.”
— “Officials said that in late 2009, he began discussing using mail bombs and possibly killing targets by gunshot to the head. By early this year, the hit list had been formalized, with about 15 targets. It was not made public.”
— “Prosecutors alleged that Paul Rockwood, also known as “Bilal,” converted to Islam about a decade ago and began studying the teachings of American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, who has professed hatred for the United States and supports acts of terrorism. According to the charging documents, Paul Rockwood converted to Islam in late 2001 or 2002 when the couple lived in Virginia.”
— “’After his conversion, and while residing in Virginia, Rockwood became a strict adherent to the violent Jihad-promoting ideology of cleric Anwar al-Awlaki,’ the documents said. ‘This included a personal conviction that it was his religious responsibility to exact revenge by death on anyone who desecrated Islam.’”

— Mission Free Iran reports: “ICAE Press Release #19: Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani’s case review postponed; final judgment will be made in 20 days”
— “In our last press release we reported that the Supreme Court in Iran would issue a statement on Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani’s case on July 21st, 2010. Today we have been informed by our sources in Iran that the Islamic regime has postponed a decision in Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani’s case for another 20 days. According to the sources, all documents of Sakineh’s case have been sent to the 9th division of the Supreme Court.”
— “We believe that Sakineh is still at risk of being executed or even stoned to death. The aim of the Islamic regime of Iran is clear: by pushing back the date of the final verdict they hope to buy time to escape the pressure of the international community. The Islamic regime is waiting for the international news coverage and the pressure to abate to then continue with their criminal activities.”

Gunman makes terror threat, robs downtown office (Chicago)

A gunman threatened to detonate a car bomb and claimed links to al-Qaida while robbing an American Express office on the Magnificent Mile this afternoon, police said.

About 4:20 p.m., a man approached a female employee in the American Express travel service office at 605 N. Michigan Ave. at first trying to buy euros and showing her a gun in his waistband as he demanded money, said Near North District Captain Leo Crotty.

The man told the woman that he was a member of al-Qaida, pointed to a vehicle across the street and claimed there was a bomb in the car and that he could detonate it with his cell phone, Crotty said.

The man, described as 6 feet tall, 200 pounds and possibly of Middle Eastern descent...
