What’s Islam Been Up To Lately? (4/4/017)

Britain, Crime, Europe, IMMIGRATION, Islam, Jihad, Russia, Terrorism

Without further ado:

When it comes to Islam, Russians are very different to our overlords who art in DC.

Russians are quick to release to the public an image of the alleged suspect in the St. Petersburg subway bombing:

Russian authorities don’t seem to look away:

Chinese and Russians are known to object to the rape of their women. WTF! Didn’t they get the memo?

Meanwhile back in Sweden it’s submission:

Is Trump abandoning his promise to keep the unvettable out?

Neocons and neolibs have generally fought on the side of Islam:

Corporate culture and Islam: for it.

Gen. Mattis loves Islam. The political establishment loves him back:

The Westminster Bridge Attack & the West.

Theresa May, Islamic scholar:

Tommy Robinson: Much better than T. May:

Kill the Jews:

The Dhimma in Dar al Islam elect Muslims:

Die occasionally, for “Our Values,” say our representatives:

Patriots expunged from US Intelligence:

Doh! It’s because we’re free that they hate us! How do I know? “W” said so.

UPDATED (3/15): Things That Haven’t #MAGA, So Far

Business, Donald Trump, Foreign Policy, Political Philosophy, Politics, Republicans, Russia, UN

Foreign Policy:

We’re peace-keeping on Syria. Policing the world doesn’t make America or the world great again. I thought President Trump promised we wouldn’t be enabling the UN’s ineptitude any longer.

President Trump has hired individuals who do not articulate the principles he ran on. Gov. Nikki Haley, for one. When the rest open their mouths to speak, too many sound nothing like what was promised. The generals scare me. America First? Where? In Yemen? Hiring different perspectives in business could well be a strength. But it’s not a strength when it comes to politics and policy. In politics you want a team that shares a political philosophy.

It’s a mistake to allow Russia mania to ramp-up without decisively and repeatedly articulating the need to get along with powers which share mutual, non-neocon interests.

UPDATE (3/15): The swamp is still swampy.

What Good Is Jeff Sessions If He CAN’T STOP GROVELLING for NOTHING

Democrats, Donald Trump, English, Russia

Why is it so hard for Jeff Sessions to say this: “Senators meet foreign diplomats all the the time. Establishment members are lying when they say they don’t meet with Russian diplomats. (And that includes Republican sleeper cells like Jason Chaffetz, Kevin McCarthy, Rob Portman and Barbara Comstock.)

These diplomats will try to curry favor with an erratic super power with nukes: the United States of America. Are you suggesting I’d betray America? Get out of my way. I have work to do.”

I know nothing about Jeff Sessions, except that he appears very frightened and not terribly sharp. He could be the opposite of those. The sharks smell fear. Like President Trump, moreover, Sessions’ pronouns are often missing a subject. His jumbled speech did nothing to bolster a weak, apologetic stance on the Russophobia gripping the DC complex.

It Takes Quite A Nation To Produce Such A President: Donald J. Trump’s Greatest Presser

Donald Trump, IMMIGRATION, Media, Russia

President Donald Trump speaks directly to the people, both by-passing and smacking a hate-filled press during a lengthy press conference. This is a volunteer president; working for free.

“I’m not ranting and raving; I’m having a good time. You, dishonest media will say I’m ranting and raving.”

“I’m changing it from Fake News to very Fake News.”

“If you were straight and told it like it is, I’d be your biggest fan.”

“There’s zero chaos in the administration.”

“Half of our job is given over to refuting lies by the press.”

“Chief of staff Reince Priebus, a real good guy, is kept busy putting out Fake-News fires. The administration would rather be working on the issues.”

“The whole Russian thing is a ruse. [Great word.] I have nothing to do with Russia.”

“The hatred at CNN is palpable.”

“You are making it impossible to get on with Russia with your fake Russia story. It’s a shame for the American people.”

Putin assumes he can’t make a deal with the US, so he’s up to mischief. Putin is not testing America, he has concluded he can’t make a deal with us, because of the Fake News onslaught.

“Doing the right thing for America is getting on with Russia, even though you want me to blow them out of the sky, water, etc. I won’t do it. I’ll do what’s right for America.”

On BBCNews: “There’s another beauty.”

Travel ban: “We had a bad Court which gave us a bad decision for the American people.

Love the way POTUS disciples the noisy voluble reporters who deliver a soliloquy, instead of asking a question. “Quiet, sit down.”

PBS News Hour’s reporter talks like reporter, asks a fair question, just as a reporter of old would have done, and is acknowledged as such by the president. He replies to her question:

“We will show a great heart. DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) is a difficult case for me. A very tough subject. I have kids. I have grand-kids. I love kids. The existing law is very rough.”

As to the new Executive Order (“travel ban”); it will be tailored to avoid new challenges such as the Ninth Circuit imposed.
