(If you go to the site, you might want to mute the sound on the first VIDEO, it is accompanied by Islamic song.)

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) doesn’t have designs on just Iraq and Syria. It has published maps in which its envisioned Islamic state encompasses not just those two countries, but also Kuwait, Jordan, Lebanon, Cyprus, parts of Turkey, and (of course) Israel. But it doesn’t stop there, either. Clearly ISIS plans to mount jihad terror attacks in the United States – and there are numerous indications that such an attack could come sooner rather than later. 8. ISIS jihadi from UK calls for jihad attacks on British civilians to avenge Muslima’s murder

Last Wednesday, a jihadist calling himself Abu Rashash Britani, who claims to be from Britain and now waging jihad with ISIS, expressed outrage on Twitter at the recent murder in Britain of a Muslim woman, Nahid Almanea. Britani ranted: “These kuffar getting out of hand, dare they touch a Muslimah. I call upon any brother to take up a knife and kill as they did [in] Colchester. Muslim sister killed by kuffar in UK. Allahu Mustahan [Allah is the one whose help is sought]. Where is the outcry by media? oh yeah she was a Muslim.”

In the U.S., meanwhile, groups like the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and Georgetown University’s Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding energetically spread the myth that Muslims in the U.S. are routinely victimized by “Islamophobic” discrimination, harassment and attacks. How long before ISIS calls for revenge attacks here as well as in Britain?

Agreed.

Representatives, as a group, like just about everybody else in the world, put what they see as their own interests ahead of everybody else's.

A representative's most important self-interest is in re-election. If those he is representing make it perfectly clear to him that certain positions will greatly reduce his chance of re-election, that position will quickly be dropped.

This is, to my mind, most obviously seen in the erosion of support in Congress for "gun control" in the last few decades. A few decades back, gun control was a consensus position, and only those from truly conservative districts opposed it strongly.

As public opinion has shifted on the issue, so did that in Congress. While it is probable reps from mildly right to mildly left districts still personally would like to see gun control passed, they are unwilling to imperil re-election by voting that way. So today only reps from truly liberal districts are willing to vote for gun control.

Most reps don't want to offend their constituents on either side of this issue, which is why gun control measures tend to not make it to an up or down vote.

The reason this has worked is not that reps really care about public opinion. If they did they'd pay equal attention to public opinion on other issues such as immigration.

It happened because the NRA and other grass-roots organizations were able to mobilize that public opinion into effective pressure groups that would actually swing elections. This is why the Left hates the NRA so much, opposing it and the public opinion it represents really will lose politicians elections.

For conservatives to be equally effective on other issues, such as immigration, where public opinion is on our side, requires similar organization. The problem is that mobilizing such effective grass roots support requires not just public opinion in its favor, it requires intense public opinion. That is present in the case of gun freedoms. Not so much with regard to immigration.

Something may be going down now.

There is now, basically no aircraft traffic versus a lot in the past week in the Baghdad area and airport.

In the past week, there has been a constant flow of north and south bound passenger and freight planes over Baghdad a little east and flying into the airport for landings and takeoffs.
