Atlas Shrugs: NIE ‘a work of fiction’

Published by Foehammer 8 months ago in Iran, U.S. National Security, Nuclear Threats, Russia, United States and China.

Atlas Shrugs brings to light this morning information that proves that you do not always need to know all the facts to know when you are being lied to. My suspicions from just the other day about the validity of the NIE reports are being proven correct. Honestly, should anyone be very surprised?

The evidence continues to mount that this NIE was a work of fiction. Critics from across the political spectrum have voiced skepticism about its conclusions and its methodology; European allies doubt its accuracy, the International Atomic Energy Agency (which normally “sides” with Iran) has raised serious objections. The only parties that seem to trumpet the NIE report are Iran, Russia, and China-our foes.

Removing John Bolton from the United Nations was one of the dumbest political decisions to come out of D.C. in recent memory. Just like removing the bulldog Bolton from a job that he was doing so well, the National Intelligence Estimate is yet more smoke and mirrors in the same effort to hide the grim reality that our enemies are closing in and we are doing too little to stop the worst of futures from one day slapping us across the face. At least when that slap finally lands, we won’t have any more excuses to not pay better attention.

Old Empires Flexing Muscles: China, Russia spying on U.S.

Published by Foehammer 10 months, 3 weeks ago in U.S. National Security, Russia, United States and China.

Filed under the “Trust no one” category and going right along with some of my thoughts from earlier this year and weapons caches found in the hands of our enemies, from the Pamela Hess via the AP:

China and Russia are spying on the United States nearly as much as they did during the Cold War, according to the top U.S. intelligence official.

Russia flexing muscle again with ‘Father of all bombs’

Published by Foehammer 11 months ago in Russia.

Russia. What is up, Russia? Are you so determined to prove me right about my assertions that Russian leaders are supporting the Islamist moves against the United States and Europe in hopes that it awakens Russia to Superpower status again and then the Bear might roam freely and grab territories, oil and farmland like back in the ‘old days’? Something smells in Moscow and I think his name is Putin.

From the AP:

MOSCOW - The Russian military has successfully tested what it described as the world’s most powerful non-nuclear air-delivered bomb, Russia’s state television reported Tuesday.

Dumps of Iranian, Russian & Chinese arms found in Afghanistan

Published by Foehammer 11 months ago in Iran, Afghanistan, Russia, Taliban and China.

Most of us believe by now that Iran has been meddling to the point of warranting a Declaration of War from the U.S. Congress. This Iranian meddling has been proven by continued uncovering of evidence in Iraq, but did you know that Iran is also arming the Taliban in Afghanistan? Certainly we are in a state of war with Iran. American and Coalition soldiers are dead because of Iran. Many innocents as well. I put the blood of those recently murdered North Koreans squarely on the hands of Iran as much as the Taliban after seeing more and more reports such as this one:

The Finger-Pointing Game of the MSM: Islamic Terror Not So Bad If We Do Nothing

Published by Foehammer 1 year ago in Islamic Terrorism, Dhimmitude, Liberal Media and Russia.

This story disgusts me. MSM reporters are fanning the flames of doubt around the horrific events that lead to the Beslan Massacre, conveniently forgetting that if it wasn’t for the Islamic terrorists taking all those children hostage in the first place, more than 200 of them would be alive today!

From the AP, Video reopens debate over Beslan attack:

A video that remained secret for nearly three years after the horrific Beslan hostage crisis has cast new doubt on official conclusions about what led to the deaths of 334 people, more than half of them children, during one of Russia’s worst terrorist attacks.

When Crows Gather: Iran, Syria and Saudi Arabia

Published by Foehammer 1 year, 1 month ago in News, War with Islam, Iran, Islam, Israel, Palestinians, Saudi Arabia and Russia.

While most of the U.S.A. has been paying more attention to the disbarment of Mike Nifong or the incarceration of Paris Hilton, our enemies in the Middle East have been quite active. It reminds me of a gathering of carrion crows surrounding Israel, smelling the coming kill. Indeed, Hamas’ violent takeover in Gaza has the crows in a frenzy, gentle readers.

Here’s part of what author Daniel Pipes has to say this morning in an article entitled ‘Two Palestines, Anyone?’ :

As for Israel, it faces the same existential threat as before. It gains from Hamas’s near isolation from the West, from the fractured Palestinian movement, and from its having a single address in Gaza. Also, it benefits from having an enemy, Hamas, overt in its intention to eliminate the Jewish state, rather than dissimulating, like Fatah. (Fatah talks to Jerusalem while killing Israelis, Hamas kills Israelis without negotiations; Fatah is not moderate, but crafty; Hamas is quite purely ideological.) But Israel loses when the fervor, discipline, and stern consistency of totalitarian Islam replace Fatah’s incoherent, Arafatian mish-mash.

It would benefit us all to have clearer enemies to shoot, but that isn’t how the Arab Muslims play the game. They are cunning enough to know that the veil must be held high up near the eyes as long as possible, until the time comes when the facade of peace can fall away entirely.

Not far away from Gaza, bigger, fatter and more cunning crows have been spotted looming. This from the Islamic Republic News Agency:

Iran’s Ambassador to Saudi Arabia Mohammad Hosseini said on Tuesday that enemies of Islam are not happy with growing trend of bilateral ties between the two countries [Iran and Saudi Arabia].

Hosseini was speaking in a meeting with Saudi Interior Minister Prince Nayif bin Abdul-Aziz as he pointed to conspiracies hatched by enemies.

“There are hands at work to inculcate wrong and incorrect news to distress minds of regional states about the Islamic Republic of Iran.

“Unfortunately, certain countries accept and spread such news.

We should act wisely vis-a-vis such plots,” he said.
