Turkey’s Erdogan has been highlighted here numerous times. He is not to be trusted, he is a stealth Islamist and might even be a co-conspirator in the attack against the U.S. consulate in Benghazi.
Recently he called Israel a “terrorist state”, and yet supposedly Turkey is a primary U.S. ally in the region. Go Figure. But shockingly an AP reporter actually calls out the State Department on their silence.

President Obama’s core, his center, his essence, is not as simple as viewing him as a classic leftist/progressive in the FDR model. To really understand, and subsequently be able to predict his future activity you have to understand his Global Leftism.
In part driven by his upbringing, and in part driven by his associations, and in part driven by his own self-created values and beliefs. When you listen to his words, watch his behaviors, understand his purposes and intents, watch his jealousies (Clinton Global Initiative), and understand the well written psychologies behind his endeavors, you recognize his approach is more mentally academic than I believe people give him credit for.
President Obama believes the stuff he has developed an affection for. He truly does. That’s not to say the policies that flow from it are appropriate, reasonable or even well constructed, indeed most are not. But what they “are” is predictable. (more…)
(Via AP) Hostess Brands Inc. lived to die another day. The maker of Twinkies and Ding Dongs said late Tuesday that it failed to reach an agreement with its second-biggest union. As a result, Hostess plans to continue with a hearing on Wednesday in which a bankruptcy court judge in White Plains, N.Y., will decide if the company can shutter its operations.
The renewed talks between Hostess and The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union came after the company declared last week that it would move to wind down its business and start selling off its assets in bankruptcy court. The company cited a crippling strike that was started on Nov. 9 by the union, which represents 30 percent of Hostess workers. (more…)
Wow…. what a coincidence huh? Last Tuesday President meets with with Big Labor (AFL-CIO, AFSCME, SEIU etc), leftists from MoveOn.Org and Center for American Progress at the White House…. Then exactly one week later, THE EXACT SAME LEADERS, announce a progressive coordinated protest outside Wal Mart stores nationwide on Black Friday.
(Daily Caller) MoveOn.org has jumped into the fight for a unionized Wal-Mart workforce. The liberal group has sent emails to its list nationwide, urging a mass-protest outside Wal-Mart stores on Black Friday. The organization is encouraging people to strike against management even if they aren’t Wal-Mart employees themselves. (more…)

The group who took victory laps around the Blood Slaughtered American Bodies in Benghazi have organized their visible self in, wait for it,…… Egypt. Go Figure.
EGYPT – Ansar al Sharia Egypt has published its founding statement online. The group says that “preaching and jihad are two wings that are indispensable to the spread of Islam,” according to a translation prepared by the SITE Intelligence Group. And the group outlines sixteen goals with that two-pronged approach in mind.
In addition to calling for the implementation of sharia law, and the resurrection of the Caliphate, the organization says it will work towards “the liberation of the Muslim lands from foreign invasion” and resist “modern colonialism, especially the Zionist-Crusader colonialism that is led by America and the West.” (more…)
Lindsey Stone and Jamie Schuh are no better than Fred Phelps and the creepy people from Westboro Baptist Church. Period. There are no acceptable varying degrees, or nuanced grey areas, regarding disrespect of desecration of our dead soldiers.
BOSTON (CBS) – Two women have been placed on unpaid leave from their jobs after their photo at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia angered thousands of people on Facebook. — Lindsey Stone was visiting the Tomb of the Unknowns last month on a business trip when she posed for a picture next to a sign that reads “silence and respect.”
In the photo, Stone is pretending to yell and she’s showing her middle finger. (more…)
Hillary arrived in Israel and held a presser in advance of close door meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu. Bibi says no to ceasefire, Secretary Clinton affirms Israels’ position, then her and Bibi head into a private conversation so she can hear first hand what the details are of Netanyahu’s terms. With those Israeli terms in hand she will approach Egypt’s President Morsi to leverage Hamas for ceasefire.
Egyptian President Morsi is, in essence, the figurehead leadership of Hamas. Think about that? My, how things have changed…… Meanwhile….. These are the savages who represent Hamas – Hamas terrorists shot a van-load of suspected Israeli “spies” in Gaza. Then they dragged the body of one of the men through the streets.
IBTimes reported:
Six Palestinian men have been executed after being accused of spying for Israel. After a brief trial, the six alleged informers were executed and dumped in a Gaza street, reports said.
“Their bodies are still there now. Ambulances have been arriving to presumably take them away,” Sky News correspondent Stuart Ramsay said.
The six “were caught red-handed” with high-tech filming equipment to take videos of military positions, according to a security source quoted by the Hamas Aqsa radio. The men were shot. (more…)
