‘PC-Paralyzed’ DHS Head Refuses To Call Islamic Terror ‘Islamic’
by Shifra on July 29, 2015Jeh Johnson, the head of the Dept. of Homeland Security, attended a security forum last week, where he insisted it is “critical” not to use the word “Islamic” when referring to the terrorist group ISIS. Johnson’s agency should be renamed: “Department of Homeland Insecurity.” Via IBD: ….Homeland Security chief Jeh Johnson refuses to call Islamic terror “Islamic,” arguing it’s “critical” to refrain from the label in order to “build trust” among Muslims. In jaw-dropping remarks Friday at Aspen Institute’s annual security forum, Johnson said the government will call such attacks “violent extremism” over “Islamic terrorism” out of respect for the Muslim community. The policy explains why the U.S. prosecutor and lead FBI investigator in the Chattanooga case still insist on...

Andrea Mitchell To Chattanooga Killer’s Classmate: Was He Into Guns? Hunting?
by Shifra on July 20, 2015Poor Andrea is going to need a chiropractor, with all her bending and twisting to avoid the “I” word. Via IJ Review: Andrea Mitchell interviewed a former school-mate of Chattanooga shooter Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez, and her line of questioning steered the guest quickly away from mention of religion…. Mitchell: Were guns a big part of activities, social or other activities? Guest: With what? Mitchell: What about guns? Did he hunt? Did he shoot? I mean, was that just part of small-town Tennessee activity? Guest: Actually, he wasn’t one of the guys that I ever heard about, you know, going hunting or… He wasn’t, really, that kind of guy….

The ‘Obama Legacy?’ WH Now Has A Gender-Neutral Bathroom
by Shifra on April 9, 2015Finally, an Executive Order POTUS can be proud of. Via Politico: Latest White House feature: Gender-neutral restroom President Barack Obama’s staff and visitors now have the option of using a gender-neutral restroom, a White House spokesman said Wednesday — the latest in a series of symbolic steps the Obama administration has taken to work the priorities of the LGBT community into its broader themes of inclusiveness and tolerance. The newly designated restroom is an example of how the administration has been advancing the discussion by raising the profile of transgender issues, an area of debate that is especially hotly contested right now. The restroom will be located in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, where much of the White House staff...

How Do You Say “Free Speech” In French?
by Pat_S on January 10, 2015France rang church bells and observed a minute of silence on Thursday in honor of those killed by jihadists. Afterward the French of every rank resumed touting the French value of freedom of speech. It is a value for which the Charlie Hebdo victims gave their lives. How dedicated the French government is to freedom of speech isn’t as clear. Indeed, how dedicated is the Western world? In 2012 Muslims planned to protest airing the film “Innocence of Muslims” in France. The French Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault banned the protests planned for Paris. At the time, Ayrault made an Orwellian statement about freedom of speech: France backs freedom of expression but warns against excesses Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault reaffirms that...

A Joyride On The Feel Good Train, #illridewithyou
by Pat_S on December 15, 2014Feelgoodism is alive and well in Australia. In the midst of a hostage-taking perpetrated by someone who at the very least identifies with ISIS, some Australians are on a Twitter campaign , #illridewithyou, offering to ride public transportation with Muslims who are wearing Islamic attire. This is a proactive campaign since there have been no confirmed incidents reported of any kind of violence against Muslims or any type of backlash whatsoever. The campaign started when a Sydney train rider, Rachel Jacobs, saw another passenger, a Muslim woman, sheepishly remove her hijab. Whether or not something happened to provoke this is unclear. Jacobs posted on Facebook that she ran after the woman at the train station (apparently not concerned this action...

by Shifra on September 8, 2014Major h/t to Jon Gabriel, photoshopper-extraordinaire, for pic. Follow him on Twitter: @exjon The incompetent nitwit Assistant Spokesperson at the State Dept is not happy with Bill O’Reilly. Last week, in a segment with James Rosen, BOR commented that Jen Psaki, Marie Harf’s boss, was “way out of her depth” and “doesn’t look like she has the gravitas for that job.” In response, Marie Harf tweeted: Via Free Beacon: State Dept.

‘Duck Dynasty’ Star: “They Told Us To Stop Praying To Jesus So It Wouldn’t Offend Muslims”

In an interview with sports spectrum magazine Willie & Phil Robertson, stars of Duck Dynasty, talk about fake bleeps, praying in Jesus’ name, and getting flack from Christians. When the editors of Duck Dynasty asked the stars to stop saying “In Jesus Name” during...

Navy “Don’t Tread On Me” Uniform Patch Banned
by oualdeaux on November 1, 2013**Promoted from TAM Wire. Posted by oualdeaux** More war on the military. Daily Caller: Navy SEALs ordered to remove ‘don’t tread on me’ Navy Jack from uniforms The Navy Jack is the ‘don’t tread on me’ flag, one that has earned a revered place in America’s naval history and a beloved place in sailor’s hearts, through its use for over two centuries. This symbol of America’s naval ferocity has spanned our country’s entire existence, flying from the masts of the Continental Navy during the war of independence, to today’s War on Terror. In fact, an amendment to the Navy code called SECNAV Instruction 10520.6 clearly states that as of 31 May 2002 all ships are to fly the flag throughout...

Churchill Almost Banned From Britain’s Currency
by Tammy on October 15, 2013Because they were concerned about offending the Germans. Not. Kidding. The Germans should thank the allies until the end of time for stopping them from destroying the world. In fact, if I were running the EU, here are the men who would be featured on all that currency: Churchill, Eisenhower, Patton, and FDR. Via Newsmax Bank of England officials reportedly came close to banning Sir Winston Churchill from the face of a new 5-pound note they plan to issue in 2016 because they didn’t want to upset the Germans. Previously classified documents obtained by Britain’s Daily Mail include a memo dated April 11, 2012, from officials to Mervyn King, then governor of the Bank. They warn that the “recentness of...

Conciliatory FBI Policies Toward Islamism Hampered Probe Into Boston Bombers
by Tammy on April 23, 2013Excellent analysis from Bill Gertz at the Washington Times. A segment is below but read the whole thing. This has been my point to you about the obsession with denial: We will never stop this madness until we focus on the main tumor of terrorism: Islamism. Ignoring that is like saying “What does it matter?” where the tumor on your skin came from, or what it really is? Investigating the source of cancer is key to stopping it before it stops you. Ignoring that cancer is afoot condemn you as it is allowed to metastasize throughout the body. This is Radical Islamism as the source of terror matters. The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s failure to recognize political Islam as a...

Air Force Chaplain Awarded Bronze Star for PowerPoint Teaching Proper Sensitivity for the Koran
by Tammy on March 11, 2013Not. Kidding. Via National Review. An Air Force chaplain has been awarded a Bronze Star for his service in crafting an especially good PowerPoint about how to treat Islamic religious materials with sensitivity, according to Ohio’s Dayton Daily News. After U.S. troops in Afghanistan accidentally burned copies of the Koran, sparking riots that took over 30 lives, Lieutenant Colonel Jon Trainer came to the rescue: After the accidental burning last year of Qurans by U.S. troops in Afghanistan sparked deadly rioting, an Air National Guard chaplain from Springfield stepped in and potentially saved countless American lives. For his effort, Lt. Col. Jon Trainer received the prestigious Bronze Star — a medal given for heroic or meritorious achievement in connection with...

On Rep. Hewett’s Odd Remarks: Waiting For The Other Shoe To Drop
by Pat_S on March 4, 2013There may be a snake under his desk but there will be no female interns in his office if Connecticut State Rep. Ernest Hewett (D) has his way. Criticism Of Hewett’s Inappropriate Remark Intensifies, But He Won’t Quit Asked about the lawmakers’ comments later Friday, Hewett denied he has a history or a problem. For example, he said, “I purposely will not have female interns. My intern now is a male. I want to keep it like that. I’ve had female interns in the past that sit in my office all day. I thought it was totally weird and I didn’t want another. “As a matter of fact, I went four, maybe six years without having an intern at all...

Whole Foods Removes Obama Chicken Ad After Complaints
by Tammy on February 22, 2013When I first heard this I had no idea why anyone would have a problem with it. Then the story makes clear it’s because someone thought it was racist. I guess I’m not thinking ‘racist’ enough. Or something. Keep in mind, this happened in an Upper Westside New York City Whole Foods, filled with workers, I’m sure, who all voted for Obama and perhaps like me, don’t think of him on racial terms. But, alas, so many other people are now obsessed with race, and yet this was something we thought Obama and his bots would transcend. Silly us. Via Newsmax. An advertisement for organic chicken using a Barack Obama look-alike has been removed from a Whole Foods’ store. A...
