Response To WikiLeaks "Collateral Murder" Video

It's amazing, the mainstream completely ignores THIS video (WARNING! Extremely Graphic!) showing the true nature of the enemy we face in Iraq and Afghanistan, but refuse to give our own Troops even the benefit of doubt.

There exists some pictures of the scene immediately after the above video was taken. The U.S. Government has released them, but redacted portions of each image because they are too gruesome. However, releasing them unredacted would clear the the U.S. Military of wrongdoing.

Will Obama authorize that? I doubt it.

It's time to hold the media accountable. Such misleading 'leaks' while suppressing evidence that would vindicate our Troops should be treason.

(If anyone wants an original copy of this video to mirror, please email me. I'm not promoting my blog with it or anything, I just want to see the truth gets out there.)

Government Funded Palestine House To JDL: 'We Need Another Holocaust'

The JDL (Jewish Defense League) protested the government funding of Palestine House in Canada.

What the mainstream media reported:

Each group accused the other of hate, shouting “go home.” JDL members hurled overt racist slurs, while Palestine House men threw pennies on the ground, calling the JDL “thieves.”

What was really said:

Palestine House Guy: "You guys need another Holocaust. You guys need another one. You f*ckers need another Holocaust."

And not just anti-semitic taunts, but open support for terrorism as well:

JDL Guy: "No more jihad."

Palestine House Guy: "We love jihad. We love killing you."

JDL Guy: "Peace, education, not jihad. No more jihad -- stop it!"

Palestine House Guy: "We love it. No, we love it. We love killing dogs... your bitches with you."

JDL Guy: "We like the Palestinians only we hate the terrorists."

Palestine House Guy: "What do your women taste like?"

Sickness Of The Left

This post is almost too vile to publish.

Jack Cafferty of CNN.com posted an editorial about a 13-year-old Saudi girl sentenced to 90 lashes for carrying a cell phone to school. The punishment is harsher than many Saudi thieves receive. She could very well die during the lashing.

The editorial goes on to point out how women are often treated as second-class citizens, with few rights.

Cafferty asks readers to respond to this question: What does it say when America’s ally Saudi Arabia sentences a 13-year-old girl to 90 lashes after bringing a cell phone to school?

The story is disturbing enough. But even more so, are the responses of CNN readers, most who live in America - the one country that rightfully condemns human rights abuses - more than any other.

Some response examples:

"We should respect the cultures of other countries as well as the rules of the school Both of which come above all else." - Mehra

"they know how to run a school. we should take note." - paul

"We need to hire Saudi teachers for our inner city schools. A few decapitations and all our problems would be solved." Mike, Syracuse, NY

"Because they enforce their laws, they do not have the crime issues we do so you can draw your own conclusions from that." - Doug, Dallas, Tx

"Good for Saudi Arabia. Go to school to learn, not talk on the phone or play games, what a novel idea." - Larry from Georgetown, TX

"It says we should 'MIND OUR OWN BUSINESS". Other countries have their own laws and customs and not every country conforms to our beliefs." - Sandy

"Their country and their laws, like it or not. I am sure we have laws that are offensive to people in other countries, including to our allies." - Mike from Denver

"It's none of our business how anybody raise their kids cause what works for one household may not work for the other so sometimes we have to be a little bit stricter but it all should be done in love and not of appearance to the public eyes" - Frandy

"Do you REALLY believe that the Saudis are going to lash this girl so bad that she is going to die or be really hurt? Come On!!! They just want to teach her a lesson. They have laws just like we do. There are broken and you pay the price. I was spanked in Elementary school with a big wooden board. It hurt! It was suppose too!" - Gayle G.

The last just shows how utterly clueless the left is about Islam... Gayle G. simply doesn't understand what an Islamic lashing is. This idiot seems to think a lashing is no worse than a paddling. That ignorance may explain the apathy displayed by many commenters in this thread. Gayle G. comments again:

"Like some people have said on here, the Muslims don't want their women running around without clothes on like in the U.S. and they don't want millons of people locked up in prisons. You do the crime and you pay a price, a big price." -Gayle G.

Yet another shining example of ignorance. Apparently Gayle G. has no problem with the ownership of women - slavery. She seems to support muslims controlling "their women" to suit the desires of their male owners. She also has no clue about the Islamic "justice" system, which often finds innocent people guilty of crimes based solely on sworn testimonies by vindictive, nefarious individuals.

It is people like Gayle G. who blindly continue to embrace the politically correct idea that religious extremism is shared equally among all faiths, and that Islam is peaceful, despite the behaviors and words of millions of muslims around the world and despite being disproportionately represented in acts of terrorism.

Liberal leaning CNN's audience is mostly democratic - the party of compassion (so it claims). Reading though these comments, however, one can see there is very little compassion or understanding for those helpless individuals living outside the limited, narcissistic world of the liberal mind.

FoxNews Avoids The "M" Word Or The "I" Word

Just as CNN did a couple of weeks ago in its report on "Honor" Killings, FoxNews has also taken the PC road to avoid using the terms "muslim" or "Islam" in its report about acid attacks on women in Pakistan.

Saira Liaqat, 26, poses for the camera as she holds a portrait of herself before being burnt, at her home in Lahore. Saira was married to her relative who would later attack her after insistently demanding her to live with him, although the families had agreed she wouldn't join him until she finished school. Saira has undergone plastic surgery 9 times to try to recover from her scars.

This is very sad, because such evil cannot be defeated until we are ready to confront it. By refusing to acknowledge it, we embolden it.

What Really Happened In Bosnia?

(Hat Tip: kuffarharbi at LGF)

NATO and the Western mass media told the public that the Bosnian Serbs had a racist and genocidal ideology, and committed atrocities.

Did they?

... It was Alija Izetbegovic, the leader of a minority Bosnian Muslim faction, the one that NATO supported, who wrote a book calling for the slaughter of infidels so that a Muslim takeover could install an Islamist theocracy in Bosnia.

Pallywood: Gaza Beach "Massacre"

The Second Draft presents the latest from 'Pallywood.' Thanks to PallywoodFilms at YouTube for making the video available.

For those of you unfamiliar with these films - they explore media manipulations by Palestinians who exploit misfortunes or even manufacture news events which are later used against Israel. The Second Draft first reports the events as presented to the media, and then further investigates the claims. These videos are free to download and share.

Death Photo of War Reporter Pyle Found

Today, the mainstream media trashes and bashes our troops every opportunity - even going as far as inventing atrocities the U.S. soldiers supposedly committed. Major media outlets such as the New York Times routinely print frontpage stories and images smearing American troops, but once the story is discovered to be a fabrication or the image is found to be doctored, the best we can hope for is a 'correction' deep within the bowels of the newspapers.

A peek back in to history reveals that, not only did our politicians have a set of brass cojones, but even war correspondents had the intestinal fortitude to report the truth.

NEW YORK (AP) - The figure in the photograph is clad in Army fatigues, boots and helmet, lying on his back in peaceful repose, folded hands holding a military cap. Except for a thin trickle of blood from the corner of his mouth, he could be asleep.

But he is not asleep; he is dead. And this is not just another fallen GI; it is Ernie Pyle, the most celebrated war correspondent of World War II.

As far as can be determined, the photograph has never been published. Sixty-three years after Pyle was killed by the Japanese, it has surfaced—surprising historians, reminding a forgetful world of a humble correspondent who artfully and ardently told the story of a war from the foxholes.

"It's a striking and painful image, but Ernie Pyle wanted people to see and understand the sacrifices that soldiers had to make, so it's fitting, in a way, that this photo of his own death ... drives home the reality and the finality of that sacrifice," said James E. Tobin, a professor at Miami University of Ohio.

Tobin, author of a 1997 biography, "Ernie Pyle's War," and Owen V. Johnson, an Indiana University professor who collects Pyle-related correspondence, said they had never seen the photo. The negative is long lost, and only a few prints are known to exist.

How Many Paragraphs Does It Take For The BBC To Get To The Point?

Lets count them, shall we?

1. A man described as a "fanatic" has pleaded guilty to plotting to kidnap and kill a British Muslim soldier.

2. Parviz Khan, 37, an unemployed charity worker from Birmingham, intended to seize and behead the serviceman "like a pig", Leicester Crown Court was told.

3. Three other men, Basiru Gassama, 30, Mohammed Irfan, 31, and Hamid Elasmar, 44, have admitted other offences connected with Khan's plot.

4. The court heard Amjad Mahmood, 32, and Zahoor Iqbal, 30, denied involvement.

5. The jury was told how Khan, of Alum Rock, intended to use drug dealers to kidnap the soldier while on a night out, behead him in a lock-up garage and then release footage of the killing to the public.

6. Nigel Rumfitt QC, prosecuting Mr Mahmood and Mr Iqbal, who both deny two offences relating to the plot, told the court that Khan had planned to seize the serviceman in Birmingham's Broad Street entertainment district.

7. "He would be taken to a lock-up garage and there he would be murdered by having his head cut off like a pig," he said.

8. "This atrocity would be filmed... and the film released to cause panic and fear within the British armed forces and the wider public."

9. Mr Rumfitt told the jury that Khan had been "a fanatic" at the centre of an Islamist terrorist "cell" based in the Birmingham area.

http://news.bbc.co.uk - Man admits plot to behead soldier

NINE paragraphs for the BBC to finally point out that this was an Islamically motivated plot. Yet the proposed victim's religion was mentioned in the very first paragraph. The article goes on to describe Khan's 'extreme views' and names numerous other abettors, though none are identified as Muslims.

Just another example of how the liberal media is more than happy to depict Muslims as victims while at the same time going to great lengths to avoid labeling a member of the religion of peace as a conspirator to commit a most heinous crime.

Variety Promotes Jihadis Website

(Hat Tip: Jawa Report)

Variety has published a disturbing article almost praising a terrorist website that glorifies "Juba" the Baghdad sniper:

The group posts clips almost daily, and its greatest media creation is Juba, a mythical marksman who is shown shooting U.S. soldiers and Iraqi policemen from a high-powered rifle fitted with a silencer -- and a video camera.

In the latest video -- posted at xxxxxxxx.net [Edited by Al Salibiyyah] -- one sequence shows the marksman taking aim at the silhouette of a soldier in the window of a concrete watchtower. A shot rings out and the body collapses like a puppet, and then falls from view.

The treacherous reporter, Bryan Pearson, not only plugs a terrorist website (which I have censored in the article quote above so as not to further promote those Islamic pigs), but almost gloats at the demise of an American "puppet."

I wouldn't be surprised if some terrorist organization had Bryan's phone number on speed dial...

You can email Byran at bryan.pearson@afp.com if you wish to express your concern that his liberal stupidity is aiding the enemy.

AP & Reuters - Taliban Dupes

It's a shame. The Taliban uses the mainstream media's gullibility and leftist leanings for propaganda, and the media couldn't care less.

The Taliban has The Associated Press and Reuters on speed dial.

Elias Wahdat, a stringer for Reuters and BBC news services in Khost province, said that every time the Taliban launch an attack or American troops call in an air strike, he gets a text message.

The Taliban will give its version of what happened, often claiming that American bombs killed civilians. It may take officials with the U.S.-led coalition in Afghanistan hours to put together a news release for the press. In the meantime, the Taliban version is already circulating.

Lt. Col. David A. Accetta, the 82nd Airborne Division public affairs officer and chief spokesman for U.S. forces in Afghanistan, said it takes time to verify the facts.

“The major difference between us and the Taliban extremists is that they are not bound by any regulations, laws or policies,” Accetta said. “They do not have to tell the truth and are more likely to use propaganda than they are to put out true, verifiable, factual information.”

But the lag time is leading to propaganda victories for the Taliban, experts and military officers said this week.

...

But Marc Garlasco, a senior military analyst with Human Rights Watch, said the Taliban have been very successful at using civilian deaths as a part of their information war against the Afghan government.

“Every civilian death in Afghanistan leads to more calls for the democratically elected government to step down. That is clearly the driving force,” said Garlasco, who just finished a draft report on civilian casualties in Afghanistan.

Afghan civilians told Garlasco that Taliban fighters force residents to remain in their homes as shields or force them to accompany insurgents on operations. A NATO source told Garlasco that the Taliban will also “seed an area with civilian dead” to make it look like NATO and coalition forces killed them.

He found that at least 388 Afghan civilians — triple the number from a year before — were killed by airstrikes in 2006-07. According to U.N. figures, 314 civilians were killed by international and Afghan government forces in the first six months of 2007 — more than the 279 civilians killed by the insurgents.

Hot Air exposes MSNBC's leftist political analyst Larry O'Donnell for the dhimmi coward he is:

Hugh Hewitt: Would you say the same things about Mohammed as you just said about Joseph Smith?

Larry O'Donnell: Oh, well, I’m afraid of what the... that’s where I’m really afraid. I would like to criticize Islam much more than I do publicly, but I’m afraid for my life if I do.

Hugh Hewitt: Well, that’s candid.
