My Guess Is, Katy Perry - UPDATE

Blind Item #4

This A list singer is being watched by the FBI. Apparently her celebrity husband is giving a great deal of money to several Muslim organizations, some of which are on a terror watch list. The thing is the husband doesn't have as much money as he has been giving so has been using his wife's money. Does she know her money is being used this way? It could be a career crusher.

UPDATE - I have not been keeping up on my Pop Culture very well. Apparently Katy Perry and Russell Brand divorced.

Ok.

Another guess is Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz.

The US Military Waterboards It's Own Troops

It Has Also Been Reported 

The American Military 

Gave Khalid Sheikh Mohammed a Golden Shower

Here's a fact that somehow had completely bypassed my consciousness:

In a discussion on MSNBC's Hardball program about whether the government ought to consider prosecuting people involved in enhanced interrogation techniques used on some terror suspects, former U.S. Rep. 

Duncan Hunter, a Republican from California, argued that the issue really comes down to waterboarding. "And," he said, "waterboarding is not torture." 

In fact, said Hunter, a Vietnam veteran and former candidate for president, "We waterboard, incidentally, hundreds of our own military personnel. They waterboard themselves in training to toughen themselves up." 

He added, "The Geneva Convention .. .was analyzed by the lawyers in place, and they came to the conclusion, especially about waterboarding, because that's the primary thing, that, since we do it to our own soldiers, by the hundreds, incidentally, and it doesn't hurt them, and they — and it makes them tougher, and it doesn't hurt anybody — Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gained weight after he was waterboarded — we decided that, since we do that to our own soldiers in training... we‘re not going to consider that torture. " 

Hunter later challenged host Chris Matthews saying, "But the point is, if we do it, are we torturing American soldiers? You have to answer yes if you consider waterboarding to be torture." 

Matthews said the difference is that U.S. service people know they are in training. They know they aren't going to be killed. "That captured person who is one of our enemies has no idea what we‘re doing when we submit him to water torture." 

Said Hunter: "If we use it with our own soldiers in training, as we do waterboarding, then it should be allowed with people who have killed thousands of Americans."

Now, Politifact says this is slightly misleading. Here's why:

But while the techniques may have been derived from SERE training, a different, more intense brand of waterboarding was used on terror suspects, according to recently released CIA documents. 

According to a May 7, 2004, CIA Inspector General special report on interrogation techniques used on terror suspects, which has some parts redacted, 

"OIG’s (Office of the Inspector General's) review of the videotapes revealed that the waterboard technique employed at (redacted) was different from the technique as described in the DoJ (Department of Justice) opinion and used in the SERE training. The difference was in the manner in which the detainee’s breathing was obstructed. At the SERE School and in the DoJ opinion, the subject’s airflow is disrupted by the firm application of a damp cloth over the air passages; the interrogator applies a small amount of water to the cloth in a controlled manner. By contest, the Agency interrogator (redacted) continuously applied large volumes of water to a cloth that covered the detainee’s mouth and nose. One of the psychologists/interrogators acknowledged that the Agency’s use of the technique differed from that used in SERE training and explained that the Agency’s technique is different because it is 'for real' and is more poignant and convincing." The report also says the CIA's Office of Medical Services has characterized the SERE waterboarding as "so different from the subsequent Agency usage as to make it almost irrelevant." 

The office said its frequency and intensity raised questions about whether it was effective or medically safe. 

So we think Hunter misleads a bit by equating waterboarding in training of military personnel with the technique used on terror suspects. According to the CIA inspector general's report, the technique used on the suspects was more powerful and convincing. 

And in the case of one terror suspect, it was used 183 times, often in rapid succession. So to argue the technique isn't torture because it is used on American servicemen as part of training ignores that it was not used in the same way. 

Still, Hunter is correct that the U.S. military has waterboarded servicemen as part of survival training. And so we rule his statement Mostly True.

What Muslims Are Good At

From Vlad Tepes Blog:

This video is so gruesome that one must under no circumstances show it to children or to highly sensitive adults. It shows how Muslim ISIS killers kill people. However, this video is different in one respect: they slowly cut the throat of one “unbeliever” and repeatedly interrupt the excruciating procedure in order to delight at the victim’s stertorous groaning and rolling eyes.  

The barbaric Mohammedans place their smart phones in the face of the pitiable individual whose head was already half cut through, and film it. One of them kicked the dying man in the head as well. All the while they continually shout “Allahu Akbar”, for Islam provides them with the legitimation for living out their perversely ferocious fantasies. 

Urgent warning: Only people with strong nerves should watch this actual horror film.

Good News: Infidels Fight Off Boko Haram Attack, Kill More Than 200 Jihadist Scum

The Infidels Are Restless

From CNN:

Hotoro, Nigeria (CNN) — Residents of three villages in northeastern Nigeria took security into their own hands this week, repelling attacks by Boko Haram insurgents and killing more than 200 of them, residents and officials said. 

Hundreds of Boko Haram fighters stormed the villages of Menari, Tsangayari and Garawa in the ethnic Shuwa-dominated Kalabalge District on Tuesday. 

Boko Haram — the group responsible for the kidnapping of nearly 300 schoolgirls from the same region — was met with stiff resistance as locals put up a fierce fight, witnesses said. 

A month has passed since the girls were kidnapped, and the Nigerian government has been accused of not acting swiftly or efficiently enough to protect villages in the region threatened by Boko Haram. 

In the three villages attacked Tuesday, gunmen arrived in dozens of all-terrain vans, armored tanks and motorcycles, but villagers quickly mobilized and engaged the attackers in a prolonged battle.

It's The "Crime", Not The Punishment, That Makes Sharia Evil

People usually focus on the barbarity of the punishment. And it is horrific.

But it is the "crime" the punishment is for that is the real problem.

Women get stoned to death for being the victim of rape.

Women and men get stoned to death for "apostasy", which means leaving Islam.

The Sudanese woman, currently in the news, is being stoned to death for refusing to renounce her Christian faith.

Such punishment for the "Crime" of Apostasy means there is no freedom of Speech/Conscience in Islam.

Why this woman's story is in the news. It is not at all unusual for this to happen.

So why this story now?

That so much attention is being focused on the story of this one Sudanese woman, while a real tragedy, serves to belittle the hundreds and thousands of Christians and Jews, and people of other religions, who are murdered by Muslims for such "apostasy".

Islam is evil. Sharia, the law code of Islam, is evil. And, let's be clear, the punishments are often barbaric. Some crimes are punished by dismemberment. Some crimes are punished by stoning the criminal to death.

And yes, this is barbarity.

But barbarity, while disgusting and horrific is a form of spectacle.

We must not allow our attention to be diverted by the spectacle of Sharia, while something much more fundamental is being stolen from us.

The "Crime" of "Apostasy", as defined by Sharia Law is not a crime. It is the Free Expression of Human Thought.

Islam defines Freedom of Thought, Speech, and Expression as the worst "Crime", and it is therefore punishable by death.

THAT'S THE REAL PROBLEM.

Saudi MERS death toll rises to 163

Health authorities in Saudi Arabia have reported three more fatalities from the MERS respiratory virus, taking the death toll in the world's worst-hit country to 163.

The health ministry website also revealed on Saturday that 520 cases have been recorded in the country since Middle East Respiratory Syndrome first appeared in Saudi Arabia in 2012.

It said three women died on Friday, including one in Riyadh, 48, and a 67-year-old in the western city of Taif.

A third woman died in Jeddah, the port city where a spate of cases among staff at King Fahd Hospital last month sparked public panic and the dismissal of its director and the health minister.

Other nations including Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, the Netherlands, the United Arab Emirates and the United States have also recorded cases, mostly in people who had been to the desert kingdom. 

Muslim Dating Game: Turkish man seeks new lover on TV show after killing two others

Yes, that's right. He has murdered TWO previous partners, a wife and a girlfriend.

From the Daily Star:

ISTANBUL: A man who appeared on a Turkish television dating show in search of a new partner shocked the audience by revealing he had murdered his former wife and a former lover. 

Sefer Calinak, 62, told Flash TV's "Luck of the Draw" he had served prison sentences for each of the murders and had been released under an amnesty programme. 

"I'm an honest person looking for a new wife," he told the show, saying he killed his first wife because he was "irritated" by her behaviour and murdered a subsequent partner because he thought she was after his money.

Has The US Defense Department Developed UFO's?

With Nato forces withdrawing from the badlands of Afghanistan, the country's people need all the help they can get to keep extremists from once again seizing power. 

But it seems a new intervention has come from an unlikely source... outer space. 

U.S. Marines captured this incredible footage of what looks like a UFO hovering over a Taliban encampment - then blowing it to kingdom come.

The clip was reportedly filmed by U.S. troops fighting in Afghanistan in March. Shot by a soldier standing next to a stationary armoured column, it shows a bizarre triangular object hanging in the sky not far ahead. 

As soldiers look on, the craft slowly moves into position, before what appear to be muzzle flashes soundlessly emanate from its underside. 

A split-second later and huge explosions erupt as the fearsome space weapons hit the site of the purported Taliban camp, sending up plumes of smoke that obscure the view of the mysterious bomber. 

After the smoke clears, the cameraman zooms in to shoot a close up view of the UFO, which looks unlike any known U.S. military drone.

"I Had No Idea How Bad Islam Was Until I Dated A Muslim"

A letter to Pamela Geller from a young woman who dated a Muslim man for three years.

From Pamela Geller:

I was taught never to judge others’ religion and culture. I took Cultural Anthropology, World Religion, Philosophy, Social Environment classes and I have the Quran at home. In school, professors makes Islam and all other religions seem very peaceful and I guess it has a lot to do with freedom of religion and ethics. 

During those 3 years I use to believe that Islam was indeed peaceful, my Ex convinced me that it was very peaceful… but I never believed it was perfect. No religion is perfect in my mind. 

I am a Psychology major, while taking psychology courses I realized that Islam created people who are ignorant, dependent and selfish. 

I started to slowly realize that I was dating a massive manipulator. His logic made no sense to me. I couldn’t question Muhammad or Allah, and when I did, he would go ballistic. At times he was very sweet and kind but I felt like Islam limited his mind. He was afraid to make his own choices. Everything was a sin. 

I use to believe women who covered themselves were very committed and loving to their religion and happy. I use to be naive and defend Islam because of all the “Stereotype”. I was a willing victim to my ex boyfriend and to Islam. 

I was willing to move with him to Saudi Arabia, Thanks god I didn’t. The amount of prejudice and racism in that culture is incredible. 

I know for a fact that my ex hates Jews with passion and had no idea what the holocaust was. Even after showing him pictures of dead Jews and dead children during the holocaust, he would twist the topic and talk about the Palestinians who were suffering due to the Jews. 

Islam brainwashes people. Everything in Islam goes against Psychology. It is highly impossible to have a stable mindset while raised in that culture. You don’t have a voice in that culture and religion. It took me a long time to start healing because I had a very strong love for my ex, even now after a year, I sometimes cry at night.

I had no Idea how bad Islam was until I dated a Muslim man. 

My ex had some good qualities and it made me damn sad that he had such strong hold on Islam. I hate Islam because there are potential good people in Islam but the more they are controlled by their faith, the more inhuman they become. 

MARVEL COMICS IS SO DUMB THEY NAMED THEIR MUSLIMA SUPERHERO "KAMALA" - KAMALA IS THE NAME OF A HINDU GODDESS, THUS THE NAME IS BLASPHEMOUS TO ISLAM

Kamala Khan - Ms. Marvel the Lotus Goddess

How stupid is Marvel Comics, and their dumbass writer, G. Willow Wilson?

The new Ms. Marvel is set to make a Hulk-sized impact on the comic book industry. Marvel Comics’ “Ms. Marvel #1” hits comic store shelves Wednesday, introducing readers to a new Muslim super heroine whose secret identity is 16-year-old Kamala Khan, a Pakistani-American of Jersey City. 

The character —- the brainchild of writer G. Willow Wilson, an Islamic convert herself, and Muslim editor Sana Amanat — is an attempt to punch through long-standing stereotypes in a medium that has largely been the purview of muscle-bound white crime-fighters. 

Honestly, I don't know what "white" has to do with it. There are white Muslims, and brown Muslims, and black Muslims, and Asian Muslims.

Islam is a Religion Ideology, not a race.

Anyone who thinks that there is some inherent connection between a religion/ideology and a particular race is a racist.

Why?

Because color of skin has nothing to do with the ideas that people believe. So to equate ideas with skin-color is to suggest that there is a racial aspect to thought, which is the foundational idea of racism.

It's downright Naziesque.

But to get back to the subject; Kamala is not a proper name for a Muslima.

It is a Hindu name.

It is the name of a Hindu Goddess of Spiritual Wealth.

Hinduism is a Polytheistic Religion.

Islam's primary goal was to eliminate Monotheism. It is first and foremost a Monotheistic religion. Islam considers the Christian concept of the Trinity to be blasphemous.

Islam is virulently opposed to Polytheism. Polytheism is considered an Unforgivable sin.

Here's how Islam deals with Polytheists:

Sahih Muslim (19:4294) - "When you meet your enemies who are polytheists (which includes Christians), invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these, you also accept it and withhold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them ... If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah's help and fight them"

BREAKING: Massive Explosion in Iran – Possible Nuclear, Roads Blocked Off for 2km

Couldn't happen to a nicer group of people.

Arutz Sheva reported:

An immense explosion has been heard throughout the northern Iranian city of Qazvin, semi-official Fars news agency reported, and many casualties are expected from the blast.

Around 1.1 million people live in the city, which is located about 100 miles north of Tehran.

The blast may be related to nuclear development in Iran, according to the Los Angeles Times. Iranian officials in the past have strongly denied claims by Mujahedin Khalq Organization, or MKO, a cult-like Iranian exile group, that it has a secret nuclear enrichment facility in Abyek, near the major city, according to the daily.

The source of the blast remains undetermined. Several mystery explosions have been reported in the past several years in the region, none of which were ever verified.

A few years back, Bloomberg had reported Iran was developing a secret nuclear site in Qazvin.

Qazvin, Iran – RT

Roads leading to the site of the fire within a 2km radius have been closed off.
Macedonian News Service reported:

A heavy explosion has taken place at a warehouse in Qazvin, north Iran, according to local news agencies. Authorities expect high numbers of casualties as a subsequent fire tore through the area.

Unconfirmed local reports state that as many as 50 could have been either killed or injured in the city, which is considered a commercial hub.

A fire broke out, engulfing the city in a cloud of smoke. Roads leading to the site of the fire within a 2km radius have been closed off and people evacuated,according to the semi-official Fars news agency.

From Five Fun Facts:

Qazvin May Have a Secret Nuclear Weapons Plant

(Google Maps)

It had been reported in 2009 that Qazvin was the site of secret uranium enrichment plant. It wasreported by Fars News Agency in Iran on May 5 that an inspection team from the International Atomic Energy Agency arrived in the country to inspect a uranium mine in Central Iran.

The Cause of the Explosion is Unknown

It's unknown what the cause of the explosion was. Thomas Erdbrink with The New York Timesreports that local news reports are saying an oil storage is burning. He added that people are being evacuated from the area but that he hasn't seen reports of an explosion. The RT reportsthat firefighters have been battling a blaze at an oil depot in the region for hours

The City is Home to One of Iran's Largest Power Plants

The Shahid Raja'i is located in Qazvin and it currently one of Iran's largest electrical power plant generating around 7 percent of all of the nation's electrical power.

James Zogby: Tony Blair A “Neocon Zionist-Israeli” Out To “Demonize Muslims”

From al-Jazeera:

Like many a “hawkish” liberal before him, former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair crossed over to the dark side of neo-conservatism. This was on display last week in a keynote address Blair delivered at Bloomberg’s London headquarters. 

After reading and rereading the speech, “Why the Middle East Matters”, I was struck by how similar it was to the “agitprop” used by George W. Bush in the lead-up to the Iraq war. 

Like Bush, Blair began and ended his Bloomberg speech on an alarmist note, designed to mobilize the public by preying on fear. Troubled that in the post-Iraq war era, public opinion in the West has become weary and wary of any further Middle East adventures, he sought to frighten his audience into joining the fight against what he called this century’s “biggest threat to global security”— radical, extremist Islam. 

In near hysterical language he warned that this “radicalized and politicized view of Islam…is growing. It is spreading across the world…And in the face of this threat we seem…powerless to counter it effectively.” 

In the stark, apocalyptic Manichean language, so-loved by the neo-cons, Blair terms this conflict between good and evil as “the essential battle” of our time— one in which “we must take a side.” 

Why does it matter that we engage this fight and defeat radical Islam in the Middle East? Blair posits four reasons: oil, its proximity to Europe, Israel, and the future of Islam. It is this last item that receives the lion’s share of Blair’s attention as he fixates on the conflict between those in the Muslim world who hold a tolerant view of religion and those who motivated by extremist tendencies. 

For Blair, the Middle East is the epicenter of this dangerous extremism. It was Arab Muslims who created it and it was they who exported it to the world. He goes on to claim that when extremist Islam is found in other places, among, for example, Indonesians, Malaysians or European Muslims, they “didn’t originate these ideas …they imported them” from the Middle East.

Malaysian Government Denies Any Jihadists Have Been Arrested

Earlier today, I posted that the Malaysian government was "still not cooperating".

It's worse than that.

They're in full denial.

Not surprising when the "god" of Islam is "The greatest of all Deceivers", the Father of Lies.

Truth is a foreign concept to the Islamic world.

From the Daily Record:

Malaysia's police chief has denied that arrests of 11 militants is linked to the disappearance of flight MH370. 

Various news outlets reported that the suspects, aged between 22 and 25, had links to al Qaeda. 

Khalid Bakar, General of Police, said: "There is absolutely no connection between the arrests and the MH370."

Again, FUCK ISLAM.

Malaysian Airlines (and Malaysian Government) Still Not Fully Cooperating With U.S. In Probe of What Happened to MH370

From the Daily Mail:

1) Interrogations came after demands from agencies including FBI and MI6 

2) Manifest revealed presence of consignment but did not reveal its contents 

3) Airline has admitted 200kg of lithium batteries was among the items 

4) It refused to say what else, citing 'legal reason' related to 'ongoing' probe

What is it, almost two months later, and Malaysian "authorities" are still not taking this seriously.

A mystery surrounding the cargo being carried by the missing Malaysian Airlines plane emerged on Friday when it was discovered that it had been loaded with items not specified on the manifest. 

The aircraft was carrying 4.566 tonnes of mangosteens - an exotic fruit - and a shipment of lithium batteries, which were part of a separate consignment. 

The batteries weighed 200kg, but that separate consignment totalled 2.453 tonnes. So what was being carried to make up the 2.253 tonnes in that separate shipment? 

Questions have been raised as Malaysia Airlines said it will close assistance centres in Beijing and Kuala Lumpur for the families of the 239 passengers and crew on board the Boeing 777-200ER jet. 

The mystery was sparked by a spokesman for the company that shipped the batteries telling a Malaysian newspaper that he would not reveal what the remaining 2.253 tonnes of cargo were. 

'I cannot reveal more because of the ongoing investigations,' the spokesman told The Star newspaper. 

'We have been told by our legal advisers not to talk about it.' The spokesman said he could not even name the company which manufactured the batteries, insisting that the matter was confidential. 

Questioned about the fact that a mystery cargo was not stated in the manifest, Malaysian Airlines told the paper that the rest of the consignment was 'radio accessories and chargers.'  

A statement from the airline said that the freight not specified had been 'declared as radio accessories', despite there being no reference to this in the manifest released publicly last Thursday. 

What the manifest does say is that NNR Global shipped 133 pieces of one item weighing 1.99 tonnes and 67 pieces of another item weighing 463kg for a total 'consolidated weight' of 2.453 tonnes. 

Just how many lithium batteries had been loaded, or their weight, are not specified in the manifest, although Malaysian Airlines boss Ahmad Yahya told a media conference in Kuala Lumpur on March 24 that the batteries weighed a total of 200kg. 

What the manifest does say, in respect of the lithium batteries, is that 'the package must be handled with care and that a flammability hazard exists if the package is damaged. 'Special procedures must be followed in the event the package is damaged, to include inspection and repacking if necessary.'

11 jihadists arrested on suspicion of involvement in disappearance of MH370

From Jihad Watch:

Maybe these arrests will lead to the discovery of the plane, and to the revelation of what really happened when it disappeared. Note also the unexplained cargo — it would seem likely that whatever was in there was tied to the plane’s disappearance, and may be involved in its reappearance if it is somewhere being. 

Nearly two months after the Beijing-bound plane vanished soon after take-off from Kuala Lumpur, no trace has been found despite a huge sea search costing hundreds of millions of pounds. It is thought to have crashed into the Indian Ocean with 239 people on board. 

An officer with the Counter Terrorism Division of Malaysian Special Branch said yesterday the arrests had heightened suspicion that the flight’s disappearance may have been an act of terrorism. 

‘The possibility that the plane was diverted by militants is still high on the list and international investigators have asked for a comprehensive report on this new terror group,’ the officer said. 

In interviews conducted so far, some suspects have admitted planning ‘sustained terror campaigns’ in Malaysia but denied being involved in the disappearance of the airliner, he added. 

Osama Bin Laden’s son-in-law, Saajid Badat, a British-born Muslim from Gloucester, said he had been instructed at a terrorist training camp in Afghanistan to give a shoe bomb to the Malaysians. 

He said: ‘I gave one of my shoes to the Malaysians. I think it was to access the cockpit.’ Badat, who spoke via video link and is in hiding in the UK, told the New York court the Malaysian plot was being masterminded by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the principal architect of 9/11. 

A mystery surrounding the cargo being carried by the missing Malaysian Airlines plane emerged on Friday when it was discovered that it had been loaded with items not specified on the manifest. 

The aircraft was carrying 4.566 tonnes of mangosteens – an exotic fruit – and a shipment of lithium batteries, which were part of a separate consignment. The batteries weighed 200kg, but that separate consignment totalled 2.453 tonnes.
