Did Sen. Schumer Just Overturn Senate’s Saudi Suit 9/11 Bill?
by Shifra on May 25, 2016Typical Schumer tactic: Talk a good game, then change your tune at the last minute. Via NY Post. Last week’s unanimous passage of a Senate bill making it easier for 9/11 families to sue Saudi Arabia and other foreign terror sponsors was widely heralded as a major victory. It’s more of a cruel hoax. It turns out that just before the vote, Sen. Charles Schumer and other proponents of the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act stuffed an amendment into the final draft allowing the attorney general and secretary of state to stop any litigation against the Saudis in its tracks. Yes, JASTA would remove the statutory restrictions that have prevented 9/11 families from taking the Saudi kingdom to court....

Apartments, Islamic ‘Museum’ to be Built On Site of Failed Ground Zero Mosque
by Tammy on May 19, 2016Oh, what are the chances some of that “Islamic museum” will turn into a mosque? Pretty high, I’d say. They note in the article that the location is “4 blocks away” from Ground Zero, implying that it’s not really at Ground Zero. For those of us who visited, it’s clearly within the destruction zone. In fact, landing gear from one of the airplanes was found wedged next to the building in question. Via NY Post. The developer of the failed Ground Zero Mosque has nailed down “Sharia-compliant financing” for a new, luxury condominium tower and Islamic cultural museum on the same site, he and his banking partners said Wednesday. The $174 million dollar project features a three-story Islamic cultural museum...

Senate OKs Bill Letting Families of 9/11 Victims Sue Saudi Arabia, Despite Threats
by Shifra on May 17, 2016We The People – 1 Obama Regime – 0 Via Fox News. The Senate on Tuesday approved legislation allowing families of Sept. 11 victims to sue the government of Saudi Arabia, defying a White House veto threat as well as brazen threats of economic retaliation from Riyadh. By voice vote, senators approved the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act. The bipartisan sponsors of the bill, Sens. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., and John Cornyn, R-Texas, are now calling on the House to follow suit. “It’s up to the House,” Cornyn said, while insisting the legislation would not damage the U.S.-Saudi relationship despite what he described as “saber-rattling.” Schumer said any foreign government that aids terrorists who strike the U.S. “will pay a...

Doctor Who Helped CIA Track bin Laden Still Languishes in Pakistan Jail
by Tammy on May 2, 2016It took Navy Seals to get bin Laden. It would take Obama interrupting his golf games and giving a damn to get Dr. Afridi out of the pit of Pakistan, but he doesn’t, so the doctor remains a hostage. This is outrageous and remains a perfect example of how Obama’s indifference, hostility and incometence contribute to our continued moral failure around the world. Via Telegraph. The doctor who helped the CIA track down Osama bin Laden has been abandoned in his Pakistan prison cell by America, his supporters claimed on the fifth anniversary of the al-Qaeda leader’s killing. Shakil Afridi was hailed as a hero by US officials after a fake vaccination campaign he ran allowed the CIA to pinpoint...

Swedish Deputy PM Calls 9/11 an ‘Accident,’ Refuses to Apologize
by Shifra on April 20, 2016Her “excuse” ? Apparently, the words “misfortune” and “accident” are the same in Swedish. But her remarks were made while defending a colleague who recently resigned after comparing Israel to Nazi Germany. So her effort to walk back her comment is really lame. It seems that Sweden is very concerned about “Islamophobia.” But Jew-hatred? Not so much. Via Times of Israel: Sweden’s deputy prime minister has come under fire for describing the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center towers and the Pentagon as “accidents.” Environment Minister and Green Party chair Asa Romson made the comments on Tuesday morning during a live televized interview about party colleague Mehmet Kaplan, who resigned as housing minister earlier this week over statements...

White House Signals Veto on Saudi 9/11 Bill
by Tammy on April 18, 2016Obama bowing to the Saudi “King” Of course. The only real question is if Obama willbow while he does it. Congress can override his veto. Do they have the will to do it? I’m guessing not. All of this is just another reminder about this system must be shaken to its core. Via The Hill. The White House on Monday signaled President Obama would veto legislation to allow Americans to sue the government of Saudi Arabia for any role officials played in the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks. “Given the long list of concerns I have expressed … it’s difficult to imagine a scenario in which the president would sign the bill as it’s currently drafted,” White House press secretary...

Your Must-Read: “How US Covered Up Saudi Role in 9/11”
by Tammy on April 17, 2016This is extraordinary and thank God it’s coming out. The repercussions of this are enormous. The details seem to reveal the Bush administration and US government working deliberately to cover-up direct Saudi involvement in the September 11th attacks. I’ve always mused about the desperation of the federal bureaucracy to maintain control of the government and how it must be related to federal secrets. Is their blind panic about the possibility of an ‘outsider’ taking control of the government and having access to all secrets explain their meltdown? Below is just a snippet. Please click through and read the whole article. Via NY Post. In its report on the still-censored “28 pages” implicating the Saudi government in 9/11, “60 Minutes” last...

Saudi Arabia Warns of Economic Fallout if Congress Passes 9/11 Bill
by Tammy on April 16, 2016What happens when you’re in debt to the devil. Isn’t this blackmail? Sure seems like it. And, of course, Obama is doing their bidding with Congress. Via NYT. Saudi Arabia has told the Obama administration and members of Congress that it will sell off hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of American assets held by the kingdom if Congress passes a bill that would allow the Saudi government to be held responsible in American courts for any role in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. The Obama administration has lobbied Congress to block the bill’s passage, according to administration officials and congressional aides from both parties, and the Saudi threats have been the subject of intense discussions in recent weeks between...

Rock Group ‘Devo’ Co-Founder Serves Guests 9/11-Themed Wedding Cake, Box Cutters
by Tammy on March 30, 2016Absolutely obscene. What makes anyone think this would be appropriate, ever? Via Gothamist, HT Debra Burlingame. Devo co-founder Jerry Casale got married last week on September 11th, and for some reason the happy couple decided it was a fantastic idea to make the deadliest terrorist attack in American history their wedding theme. Festive! We’re guessing they registered for this 9/11 cheese plate too. Someone sent TMZ photos and details about Casale and Krista Napp’s event: Jerry Casale — Devo’s singer and bassist — married Krista Napp on Friday at Michael’s Restaurant in Santa Monica. Of course, Friday marked the 14th anniversary of the September 11th attacks … a fact the bride and groom made sure their guests would never forget....

Brussels Suspect Played Key Role In 9/11 Preparations
by Tammy on March 28, 2016Well, well… The scumbag got *seven years* in prison for helping with the mass murder of September 11, 2001. This is what it gets humanity when you let savages like this live. What we don’t kill comes back to haunt us. Via Daily Caller. One of the terror suspects detained during the raids in Brussels played a role in al-Qaida’s preparations for the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the U.S. Abderrahmane Ameroud surrendered to police Friday after getting shot in the leg at a train station in Brussels.

by Tammy on September 3, 2015It is the first week of September as we approach the 14th anniversary of 9/11. Was this a test or just a bunch of disgusting bullies with bad timing? Via Dallas Morning News. FBI special agent T. Scott Hendricks has filed an affidavit explaining why Southwest Airlines diverted a San Diego-Chicago flight to Amarillo late Monday and booted six passengers off the flight. The six, said to be members of a San Diego area soccer team, were subsequently arrested and charged with “interference with a flight crew and abetting.” Basically, according to Hendricks per Southwest, the passengers -Khalid Yohana, 19; Wasim Imad Shaker, 23; Essa Solaqa, 20; Ghazwan Assad Shaba, 21; Jonathan Khalid Petras, 20; and Saiman Hermez, 19- were...

Marcy Borders, Iconic 9/11 ‘Dust Lady,’ Dies Of Cancer
by Shifra on August 26, 2015Her picture really captured the horror and confusion of that day. Marcy was only 42, and she believed that her stomach cancer was caused by inhaling toxic dust. RIP, Marcy. Via Guardian: It was one of the most haunting images that emerged after 9/11: a woman covered in ash and powdered concrete fleeing the World Trade Center after the first plane struck the tower and brought horror to the heart of New York. Marcy Borders was a 28-year-old Bank of America worker when the photograph of her staring into the lens with her eyes asquint and her mouth agape was taken.

Michigan Mayors’ Ramadan ‘Unity’ Dinner Scheduled On 9/11 Changes Date After Protests
by Shifra on August 25, 2015But the question remains: Why would the cities of Lansing and East Lansing, Michigan, schedule such an event on September 11? Inexplicable… Via BizPac Review: ….For reasons that remain baffling, the cities of Lansing and East Lansing, Mich., decided to hold a feast celebrating a Muslim holiday that was to take place not only long after the actual holiday was over, but on the anniversary of the very day Islamist terrorists murdered thousands of Americans in New York City and Washington 14 years ago…. While the news was mostly ignored by the mainstream media, it was picked up by conservative new media, including BizPac Review, and protests were being planned outside the Lansing Center in downtown Lansing. The pressure was...
