    There seems to be an obvious resemblance between these two infamous American villains, Chelsea Manning (the treasonous fake woman) and Lee Harvey Oswald. img src=http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=chelsea+manning&view=detailv2&&id=C665876009C5479CAADBCE75A45813EE327AE570&selectedIndex=4&ccid=mshpuL9t&simid=608046643187289778&thid=OIP.M9ac869b8bf6d3d402a2c40366423f0f2o0&ajaxhist=0 img src=http://cbsnews1.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r/2013/07/13/c03da87c-1c4e-11e3-9918-005056850598/resize/620x465/b10c20c9a570b11800222a466d12248d/LHO_Oswald_teen.jpg

    It’s no wonder we haven’t heard this story from the Democrat controlled media, but a new group of anti American Black Muslims calling themselves the National Black Foot Soldiers actually celebrated what they call the BOW Black on White “martyrdom” of Police murderer Maurice Clemmons.

    DEBKAfile's Iranian and intelligence sources disclose that Moscow warned Tehran Friday April 17 that Israel was planning to destroy all 140 fighter-bombers concentrated at the Mehr-Abad Air Force base for an air show over Tehran on Iran's Army Day the following day. The entire fleet was accordingly removed to remote bases and the display cancelled. In the first week of April, Tehran announced it would stage its biggest air show ever to dramatize a ceremonial military parade in the capital on April 18. Iran would show the world that it is capable of fighting off an Israeli attack on its...

    Two young children are to be adopted by a gay couple, despite the protests of their grandparents. The grandparents first stepped in because the children's mother was unable to look after them. The couple, who cannot be named, wanted to give the five-year-old boy and his four-year-old sister a loving home themselves. But they were ruled to be too old - at 46 and 59. The devastated grandparents were told they would never see the youngsters again unless they dropped their opposition.

    The party’s over for Big Oil. That may not be immediately evident as the world’s largest publicly traded oil majors reveal their annual 2008 profits in the coming days. But oil’s swift fall in late 2008 paints a starkly different picture for those last three months and possibly well into 2010. “The air has gone out of the tires, the wind’s gone out of the sails,” said John Olson, an analyst with Sanders Morris Harris in Houston.

    HOUSTON (AP) - Exxon Mobil Corp., the world's biggest oil refiner, will spend more than $1 billion in the next couple of years to increase its global production of cleaner-burning diesel by about 10 percent, the company said Monday. The announcement comes as many oil producers and refiners scale back spending because of the sharp decline in crude prices, dismal expectations for energy demand in 2009 and tight credit markets that have put many big capital expenditures out of reach.

    Powerful House Democrats are eyeing proposals to overhaul the nation’s $3 trillion 401(k) system, including the elimination of most of the $80 billion in annual tax breaks that 401(k) investors receive. “This is a battle between liberalism and conservatism,” said Christopher Van Slyke, a partner in the La Jolla, California, advisory firm Trovena, which manages $400 million. “People are afraid because their accounts are seeing some volatility, so Democrats will seize on the opportunity to attack a program where investors control their own destiny,” he said.
