[Ynet]. ADL exposes US-based blogs, as well as international media outlets, claiming Jews are waging a war against Islam.
In the wake of the terror attacks on the Charlie Hebdo ...A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe... headquarters and a kosher supermarket in Gay Paree, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) says it has exposed several conspiracy theories promoted by anti-Semites and anti-Israel activists, as well as by some media outlets primarily in the Arab world.
US-based anti-Semitic conspiracy theorists blamed Israel for the attacks, claiming Jews were waging a war against Islam.
Mark Glenn, a virulently anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist, wrote on his blog The Ugly Truth that "the massacre in Gay Paree as (sic) yet another False Flag event aimed at re-igniting and re-invigorating Judeas declared war against Islam."
On Veterans Today, a US-based website that presents anti-Semitic conspiracy theories as news, Israeli-born Gilad Atzmon whos is based in London claimed that La Belle France somehow deserved these attacks due to actions he claims were pushed for by "the Jewish lobby group CRIF."
He also chastises La Belle France for "following the whims of The Lobby." He posited, "It is quite probably that this was another false flag operation. Who could be behind it? Use your imagination"
In addition, international media outlets including in Leb, Turkey, Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia and India have also espoused similar sentiments attempting to establish a Jewish connection to the executions.
International Business Times India published an article that posited that the Mossad, Israels national intelligence service, was to blame.
"Although there is no way to verify the claims that Mossad was involved, the back-drop in which the attack took place seems to indicate that they might be involved, many conspiracy theorists have noted. Mossad is responsible for intelligence collec-tion and has undertaken many covert operations for Israel in Europe that aim to fur-ther their Jewish cause.
The article has since been replaced with an editors note stating that the article alleg-ing this link "should never have been published."
In Jordan, the Rawafed News website published an article by Assad Al Azony on Jan-uary 8 titled "The tragedy of satirical Charlie Hebdo." According to the article, "One must be certain that Jews and the French extreme right wing executed this terrorist attack."
"It was inevitable that the haters would surface with their virulently anti-Semitic conspiracy theories," said ADL National Director Abraham H. Foxman. "It is absurd but sadly predictable that conspiracy theories connecting what occurred in Gay Paree to Jews and Israel continue to spread after such an unthinkable tragedy.
"The fact that we saw 'mainstream' media outlets primarily in the Arab world promoting such horrendous claims is not a surprise, given our recent polling across the Middle East and North Africa," Foxman added.
"The ugly hateful rhetoric coming from these conspiracy theorists is disturbing. They are a continuation of the various anti-Semitic conspiracy theories from the far right and left as well as in the Arab and Moslem world that were abundant following 9/11."
ADL has highlighted numerous conspiracy theories connecting Jews to a range of tragedies and events, ranging from the fighting in Syria and the rise of ISIS, to the Boston Marathon Bombing and the Sandy Hook Massacre.
The Leagues recent polling across the Middle East and North Africa found that 74% of those polled harbor anti-Semitic attitudes.
remember that St. Winston the Churchill said that "facts are to a liberal as garlic is to a vampire."
Facts are so passé, its the feelings and the good intentions that count.
So tell me liberal intelligentsia, what is the good intention of Anti-Semitism? After all look at the literal hundreds of Nobel Prize winners in Chemistry, Physics and Biology who are Jewish and of course contrast that with the shortest book in the library..."Muslim Nobel Prize Winners"

[VOA News] It was no accident that Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... picked the town of Baga to attack last week in Nigeria's northeast, routing the military and torching the fishing community. The town's strong vigilante groups may have made it a target.
The violence this past week in Baga was astounding, even for Boko Haram, which has been fighting Nigeria's government for more than five years to establish strict Sharia law in the country's northeast.
Local politicians and residents said hundreds, if not thousands of people were killed last week during the Baga raid. The group attacked the nearby base of the Multinational Joint Task Force, a group of soldiers from Nigeria and neighboring countries.
Baga has been the scene of several violent incidents during the insurgency. As the threat of Boko Haram increased, vigilante groups known as the Civilian Joint Task Force formed in the region.
They were successful in keeping the town safe from Boko Haram myrmidons, says freelance journalist and security analyst Alkasim Abdulkadir.
"In the last one year, we have seen a very, very strong civilian JTF, a very, very strong vigilante go off of Baga, who have assisted in ensuring myrmidon attacks were brought to a minimum. So I think it was a time for the murderous Moslems to really shoot back at this vigilante who have really grown very strong in this particular area," he said.
Abdulkadir said Boko Haram adopted a scorched earth tactic in Baga specifically to undermine the military's ability to retake the town.
"It makes it less strategic, it makes it less of an issue for the army to fight back if there is nothing to go back to there. Because for example the MNJTF brigade is under the murderous Moslems at the moment. There are no assets, either militarily or civilian assets in Baga at the moment," he said.
Baga is not the only town with a civilian Joint Task Force presence. In November, Boko Haram raided the town of Damasak, killing 50 people in what locals say was retaliation against the town's vigilante group.
Abdulkadir said there were signs Boko Haram's leader, Abubakar Shekau, was planning a wider campaign against the vigilantes.
"They actually fear the civilian JTF more than the army. From the [statements] of Abubakar Shekau that we have monitored, there seems to be a vehement hatred against members of the civilian JTF. So I think there are going to be further attacks on the civilian JTF anywhere they might be. It is going to be an ongoing trend," he said.
The attack on Baga forced 7,000 people to flee to neighboring Chad. Hundreds more fled to the state capital, Maiduguri.

[DAWN] UN chief the ephemeral Ban Ki-moon ... of whom it can be said to his credit that he is not Kofi Annan... has condemned recent attacks by Islamic forces of Evil that killed hundreds of people in Nigeria, which holds elections next month even though Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... forces of Evil hold large swaths of territory in the northeast of Africa's most populous country.
Ban's office said in a statement Sunday that the secretary-general was appalled by reports that hundreds of civilians were slaughtered in an assault around Baga town in Borno state, near Nigeria's border with Chad.
Some reports say the corpse count is as high as 2,000.
An Amnesia Amnesty International statement had said there are reports that the Baga town was razed and as many as 2,000 people killed.

North Korea has drastically shortened the time it takes to prepare for missile launches by improving liquid fuel quality for ballistic missiles, a government source here claimed Monday. This could virtually incapacitate South Korea's current missile defense system.
"It used to be thought possible to detect a North Korean launch of ballistic missiles in advance because the liquid fuel had to be pumped into the missiles right before the launch," the source said.
"But analysis of various intelligence reports last year shows that the North's ballistic missiles can now stay in standby mode for a long time even after they are injected with liquid fuel because its quality has improved."
That would give the renegade country more flexibility in deciding when to launch a missile.
The North is estimated to have some 1,000 ballistic missiles, most of which use liquid fuel. In the past the North's liquid fuel was so explosive that missiles could only be filled an hour-and-a-half to three hours before their launch. But now they can be kept ready for anywhere between a month and several years, the source claimed.
That would make it nearly impossible for South Korean and U.S. intelligence to spot launch preparations with reconnaissance satellites or aircraft.
Military authorities here failed to detect the North's surprise launches of Scud and Rodong missiles in advance last year. They are now trying to improve their reconnaissance and responses.

The Moroccan-born mayor of Rotterdam has said Muslim immigrants who do not appreciate the way of life in Western civilisations can 'f*** off'.
Ahmed Aboutaleb, who arrived in the Netherlands aged 15, spoke out in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris last week.
Appearing on live television just hours after the shootings, Mayor Aboutaleb said Muslims who 'do not like freedom can pack your bags and leave'.
Labour politician Ahmed Aboutaleb, a former journalist who was appointed mayor of the Dutch city in 2008, is known for his straight-forward stance on integration.
The 53-year-old won the praise of London-mayor Boris Johnson over his comments last week, attacking fellow Muslims who move to Western nations and refuse to accept the way of life.
'It is incomprehensible that you can turn against freedom,' Mayor Aboutaleb told Dutch current affairs program Nieuwsuur (Newshour).
'But if you don't like freedom, for heaven's sake pack your bags and leave.
'If you do not like it here because some humorists you don't like are making a newspaper, may I then say you can f*** off.
'This is stupid, this so incomprehensible. Vanish from the Netherlands if you cannot find your place here. All those well-meaning Muslims here will now be stared at'.
Mayor Aboutaleb grew up the son of an imam in northern Morocco, but moved to the Netherlands in 1976.
After working as a reporter he became a civil servant before being appointed State Secretary for Social Affairs and Employment in 2007.
When he was appointed mayor of Rotterdam, the second largest city in the country with a population of more than 610,000, he became the first immigrant in such a position in the Netherlands.
Mayor Aboutaleb, who represents the Dutch Labour Party, de Partij van de Arbeid, has long had a no-nonsense approach to immigration and integration.
Speaking to the Observer shortly after his appointment he said his message to immigrants is 'stop seeing yourself as victims, and if you don't want to integrate, leave'.
This week, London Mayor Boris Johnson hailed Mayor Aboutaleb as his 'hero' and 'straight to the point'.
'That is the voice of the Enlightenment, of Voltaire,' Mr Johnson wrote in the Daily Telegraph.
'If we are going to win the struggle for the minds of these young people, then that is the kind of voice we need to hear - and it needs above all to be a Muslim voice.'
[Ynet]. One of the men behind last week's deadly rampage in Gay Paree claimed to have lived with the Nigerian behind the failed al-Qaeda "underwear bomb" plot five years ago, a Yemeni news hound who met the Gay Paree attacker said Monday. Journalist and researcher Mohammed al-Kibsi said he first met Said Kouachi in 2010 while the French citizen was studying Arabic in the capital Sanaa, in the days after the failed Christmas 2009 attack on a bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit ... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang... -bound airliner.
"When I saw the photo of Said I could recognize him... He was very polite and had a sense of humor, so for me I could not expect that a few years later he would be the suspect of a terror attack," al-Kibsi said by telephone. "When I first met him he was wearing a track suit, playing football with kids in the street."
A high-ranking judicial police chief in Limoges committed suicide last Wednesday hours after being asked to file a report on the Charlie Hebdo killings, it has emerged. Helric Fredou, 45, the deputy director of the regional judicial police in Limoges turned his gun on himself last Wednesday night, hours after Cherif and Said Kouachi killed 12 people in an Islamist rampage, including two policemen.
He had been tasked with investigating the family of one of the victims, but died before handing in the report. He had reportedly interviewed families of Charlie Hebdo victims in the hours after the attack.
It is not known if his decision to commit suicide has any link to the Charlie Hebdo killings.
"We are all stunned. He was someone who was very humane and close to people," said Pascal Cayla of the Alliance union.
Colleagues said Mr Fredou had been deeply affected by the suicide of the number three of the Limoges judicial police in 2013 after he discovered the body. His colleague had left a note citing "personal reasons".

[THEATLANTIC] The massacre at a kosher supermarket in Gay Paree on Friday reinforced a fear, expressed openly and with distressing frequency by many in La Belle Frances half-million-strong Jewish community, that Islamist violence is compelling large numbers of Jews to flee. Already, several thousand have left over the past few years. But it is not merely the physical safety of La Belle Frances Jews that is imperiled by anti-Semitic violence, the countrys prime minister, Manuel Valls, argues, but the very idea of the French Republic itself. In an interview conducted before the Charlie Hebdo ...A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe... and kosher supermarket massacres, Valls told me that if French Jews were to flee in large numbers, the soul of the French Republic would be at risk.
The choice was made by the French Revolution in 1789 to recognize Jews as full citizens, Valls told me. To understand what the idea of the republic is about, you have to understand the central role played by the emancipation of the Jews. It is a founding principle.
Valls, a Socialist who is the son of Spanish immigrants, describes the threat of a Jewish exodus from La Belle France this way: If 100,000 French people of Spanish origin were to leave, I would never say that La Belle France is not La Belle France anymore. But if 100,000 Jews leave, La Belle France will no longer be La Belle France. The French Republic will be judged a failure.
To be historically accurate, as a commenter at Instapundit pointed out, failed French Republics aren't all that rare...
I met Valls at the Hotel Matignon, the prime ministers residence, in the 7th arrondissement. (We spoke for a while, and Ill be incorporating the full interview with Valls into a longer article for the magazine about this set of issues. But, given the suddenly intensifying crisis, it seemed worthwhile to highlight some of the things he said.)
Valls made it a point, early in our meeting, to show me the desk used by one of his predecessors, the Jewish prime minister (and Dreyfusard) Leon Blum. Jews were sometimes marginalized in La Belle France, but this was not Spain or other countriesthey were never expelled, and they play a role in the life of La Belle France that is central, he said.
Valls, who on Saturday declared that La Belle France was now at war with radical Islam, has become a hero to his countrys besieged Jews for speaking bluntly about the threat of Islamist anti-Semitism, a subject often discussed in euphemistic terms by the countrys political and intellectual elite. His fight, as interior minister, to ban performances of the anti-Semitic comedian Dieudonne (the innovator of the inverted Nazi salute known as the quenelle) endeared him to the countrys Jewish leadership, and he is almost alone on the European left in calling anti-Zionism a form of anti-Semitism.
Valls is correct to call out Islamicist anti-semitism and fascist anti-semitism. When he calls out socialist anti-semitism I'll begin to listen to him...
There is a new anti-Semitism in La Belle France, he told me. We have the old anti-Semitism, and Im obviously not downplaying it, that comes from the extreme right, but this new anti-Semitism comes from the difficult neighborhoods, from immigrants from the Middle East and North Africa, who have turned anger about Gazoo into something very dangerous. Israel and Paleostine are just a pretext. There is something far more profound taking place now.
Another commenter from Instapundit: You import a bunch of people who have hated Jews for over a thousand years, don't demand that they assimilate, and then anti-Semitism is on the rise. Quelle surprise.

Would this be the sixth Republic, then? It's so hard keeping track...
Just can't give up on that old lie can they? Socialism is not 'right'. There may be a 'right' in socialism, but it's still far left of classical liberalism.
[REUTERS] Up to 3 million copies of Charlie Hebdo ...A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe... could hit newsstands this week, dwarfing its usual print run of 60,000, in response to soaring demand for the first edition of the satirical weekly since last week's deadly attacks by Islamist bad boys.
Seventeen people, including journalists and police, were killed in three days of violence that began on Jan. 7 when bandidosturbans burst into Charlie Hebdo's office during a regular editorial meeting and rubbed out five of its leading cartoonists.
Liberation newspaper, now temporarily housing Charlie Hebdo operations, revealed the front page of the Jan. 14 edition via Twitter late on Monday - an image of the Prophet Mohammad holding a sign saying "JE SUIS CHARLIE" ("I am Charlie") below the headline "TOUT EST PARDONNE" ("All is forgiven").
An initial batch of 1 million copies will be available on Wednesday and Thursday, said Michel Salion, a front man for MPL, which distributes Charlie Hebdo. A further 2 million could then be printed depending on demand.
"We have requests for 300,000 copies throughout the world - and demand keeps rising by the hour," Salion said, adding that the newspaper usually had just 4,000 international clients.

[EN.MERCOPRESS] President Francois Hollande ...the Socialist president of La Belle France, an economic bad joke for la Belle France but seemingly a foreign policy realist... and leaders from Germany, Italia, Israel, Turkey, Britannia and the Paleostinian territories among others, moved on Sunday off from the central Place de la Republique ahead of a sea of French and other flags. Giant letters attached to a statue in the square spelt out the word Pourquoi? (Why?) and small groups sang the La Marseillaise national anthem. Vive la France!
German Chancellor Angela Merkel ...current chancellor of Germany. She was educated in East Germany when is was still run by commies, but in 1989 got involved with the growing democracy movement when the Berlin Wall fell. Merkel is sometimes referred to by Germans as Mom... , British Prime Minister David Cameron ... has stated that he is certainly a big Thatcher fan, but I don't know whether that makes me a Thatcherite, which means he's not. Since he is not deeply ideological he lacks core principles and is easily led. He has been described as certainly not a Pitt, Elder or Younger, but he does wear a nice suit so maybe he's Beau Brummel ... and Italia Prime Minister Matteo Renzi were among 44 foreign leaders marching with Hollande. UN Secretary-General the ephemeral Ban Ki-moon ... of whom it can be said to his credit that he is not Kofi Annan... , Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu -who earlier encouraged French Jews to emigrate to Israel- and Paleostinian President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... were also present.
Immediately to Hollande's left, walked Merkel and to his right Malian President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita. La Belle France has provided troops to help fight Salafist tough guys there.
While there has been widespread solidarity with the victims, there have been dissenting voices. French social media have carried comments from those uneasy with the Je suis Charlie slogan interpreted as freedom of expression at all cost. Others suggest there was hypocrisy in world leaders whose countries have repressive media laws attending the march.
Some 2,200 police and soldiers patrolled Gay Paree streets to protect marchers from would-be attackers, with police snipers on rooftops and plain-clothes detectives mingling with the crowd. City sewers were searched ahead of the vigil and underground train stations around the march route are due to be closed down.
The silent march - which may prove the largest seen in modern times through Gay Paree - reflected shock over the worst bully boy Islamist assault on a European city in nine years. For La Belle France, it raised questions of free speech, religion and security, and beyond French frontiers it exposed the vulnerability of states to urban attacks.
Gay Paree is today the capital of the world. Our entire country will rise up and show its best side, said Hollande in a statement.

I'd always really rather the "capital of the world" is always wherever freedom rings. Under that definition, it's usually not geographically or philosophically coincident with any political power center, but everywhere and nowhere at once. Wherever people are doing their own thing, minding their own business and being left alone by everyone else while they do it. My two cents...

[DAWN] This week's edition of Charlie Hebdo ...A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe... , put together by survivors of last week's newsroom massacre in Gay Paree by Islamist gunnies, will defiantly feature more caricatures targeting Islam.
The special issue, to come out on Wednesday, will also be offered in 16 languages for readers around the world, one of its columnists, Patrick Pelloux, said.
Charlie Hebdo's lawyer, Richard Malka, told French radio the staff will cede nothing to forces of Evil seeking to silence them.
The two gunnies who slaughtered 12 people in their attack on Charlie Hebdo's offices last Wednesday, including five of its top cartoonists and three other staff members, claimed as they left the scene that they had avenged the Prophet Mohammed (PTUI!).
That was a reference to the fury expressed in some Moslem countries over past Mohammed (PTUI!) cartoons which Charlie Hebdo had printed.
The gunnies, brothers Cherif and Said Kouachi, claimed to belong to the jihadist group Al-Qaeda in Yemen.
They were killed on Friday, as was an accomplice claiming affiliation to the rival Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems.... group, Amedy Coulibaly, in separate but coordinated French commando raids on sites in and near Gay Paree where they had taken hostages.
In all 17 people and the three Islamist attackers were killed in three days of violence.
Charlie Hebdo's offices were Molotov cocktailed without casualty in 2011 when it published cartoons targeting the prophet (PTUI!).
The surviving Charlie Hebdo staff have since Friday been working out of the offices of another French newspaper, Liberation, with equipment loaned by other media organizations. Their own blood-soaked offices remain sealed by police, with the entrance covered with flowers, pencils and candles in tribute to the dead.
The 44-year-old newspaper has always sought to break taboos with its provocative cartoons on all religions, current events and prominent personalities.
It had been sliding towards bankruptcy before the attack against it. It used to typically sell only half of the 60,000 copies it printed weekly.
But since gaining worldwide notoriety in the past few days, it has earned pledges of support from the French government and media groups.
One million copies of this week's special survivors' issue are to printed, with many of them to be made available outside of La Belle France.
It will be created only by people from Charlie Hebdo, its financial director, Eric Portheault, told AFP. Offered contributions, notably from cartoonists in La Belle France and other countries, were declined.

Leipzig and Dresden are former Östdeutsch cities. I wonder if there are more of this sort of thing going on in those parts of Germany than in cities like Frankfürt, München and Hannover?

Ima guessing there aren't too many Muslims in Schweinfürt, which translates to 'Pig's Crossing'. I visited there back in January 1987, and it wasn't that far away from the East German border. I was walking through some woods and almost got my ass shot off by US Army patrolling the area. Never had multiple M-16's pointed at me! They were nice guys, and 'escorted' me out of the restricted area. Call it halfway to a deathwish - I just wanted to see The Wall.
Lesson learned - young, drunk and stoopid is no way to travel through Germany, son.

One of the member organizations of the Central Council of Muslims is the IGD which is in effect the German branch of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Nadeem Elyas, former president of the Central Council, recruited convicted terrorist Christian Ganczarski for religious training in Saudi Arabia where Ganczarski came into contact with Al-Quaida. In 2002 Ganczarski was involved in the Ghriba synagogue bombing for which he was convicted in France.
The Central Council is not an organization with which any decent politician should associate himself. Merkel's participation in this ceremony in the aftermath of an islamofascistic massacre is a huge affront.
#5
The first significant Islamist publication in Europe, La Nation Arabe, was produced in Annemasse, France in 1930. It survived until 1938, and though it had a small circulation it had a major impact on the anti-Colonialists, and within the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood. Arslan, its editor, had a long association with the Muslim Brotherhood, and he favored the immigration of Muslim intellectuals to France from where they could begin the penetration of Europe.

"The Central Council of Jews in Germany is one of the organizers of this event."
The linked-to article is an opinion column written by German-Jewish journalist Henryk M. Broder.
If you read German then do read the article! Google's translation leaves much to be desired; putting my own translation in this comment would get RB in copyright trouble.
The point he's making is expressed in the Churchill quote anyway.
Jews are in an awkward and precarious position in Europe. I understand the rationale behind CCJG's participation but they're making a huge mistake siding with the enemies of Western Civilization i.e. the MB and effectively Hamas.
[BBC] Newly-released CCTV footage appears to show the partner of Gay Paree supermarket attacker Amedy Coulibaly arriving at an Istanbul airport in Turkey.
The video purports to show Hayat Boumeddiene passing through passport control with another man on 2 January. She is thought to now be in Syria.
French police are seeking her after Coulibaly and two other gunnies launched deadly attacks on Gay Paree last week.
About 10,000 troops have been deployed in La Belle France following the attacks.
Hayat Boumeddiene has been identified as a suspect by French police, although she left La Belle France before the attacks.
The Turkish foreign minister said she arrived in Turkey on 2 January from Madrid, before continuing to Syria six days later.
The security footage, published by Haberturk newspaper, was released by Turkish police. It appeared to show Hayat Boumeddiene and a man at Sabiha Gokcen Airport in Istanbul.
Turkish officials told the BBC the man was Mehdi Sabri Belhouchine, a man of North African origin, and that he was not on a watch list. Officials believe he crossed into Syria with Hayat Boumeddiene.
Hayat Boumeddiene's partner, Coulibaly, had killed four people at a kosher supermarket in eastern Gay Paree on Friday before police stormed the building. He is also believed to have rubbed out a policewoman the day before.
Coulibaly had claimed that he co-ordinated his attack with brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi, who attacked the offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo ...A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe... on Wednesday, killing 12 people. All three gunnies were rubbed out on Friday after police ended two separate sieges.
French prosecutors said Hayat Boumeddiene had exchanged more than 500 phone calls with the wife of Cherif Kouachi in 2014.
French police said they had also found a second flat in Gay Paree which had been used as a hide-out by Coulibaly, and contained weapons.
'Not Turkey's fault'
Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said on Monday that Turkey had not been asked to deny Hayat Boumeddiene access.
"We need to receive intelligence first so we can track people. We have 7,000 people on a no-entry list and deported 2,000, including French and German citizens."
He added: "Is it Turkey's fault that it has borders with Syria?"

Perhaps it was Boumeddiene on the vid, perhaps it was a double. French authorities believe a six person support cell is still in operation. I suspect the suspects still in detention are under a great deal of pressure to tell what they know, and that pressure may be paying off.
I also suspect Holder's trip to Paris and the regimes refusal to attend the solidarity march may have had something to do with the detained suspects.
#3
As the most transparent administration in history, and with secure teleconferencing, phones, and data transmission methods, I remain curious at what Holder, the most trusted of Champ's lieutenants, could have hurried couriered to Paris.... or brought back ?
#4
If that's the case, why send someone who purports all terrorist attacks to be 'criminal acts by individuals', a widely held view in this administration?
Unless Holder is actually there to try and defuse the expected French response, which could be pretty nasty.

Perhaps Champ was learning about the attack on CNN, and heard the subjects were African Americans.
#6
A new video has surfaced of the initial newspaper attack. Both shooters are clearly visible, and both appear to be male. My previous theory that Boumeddiene was the passenger appears to be incorrect.
#2
Yes, very calculated indeed. No one is talking about the purpose of Holder's mission to Paris or who he spoke with. Could it be the regime is concerned about the civil rights of detained suspects or bits of information which might involve the late Anwar Al Awlaki ?

What's 'interesting' about this insult - France is basically socialist, so why would Obama diss fellow travelers? I can only think that POTUS is so self-centered he doesn't give a rats ass about the traditional requirements of the office he holds. Which would be consistent with the actions he's taken to cripple and destroy this country.

Could it be the regime is concerned about the civil rights of detained suspects or bits of information which might involve the late Anwar Al Awlaki ?
I'm going to go with "No." My take is that it's nothing as minor as that.
It's more likely related to both foreign and domestic relations with particular 'constituencies."

I'd like to hear you expand upon that when you have time
It can be broken down into two categories:
International:
1. The Muslim World:
Foreign policy wise, the President and his administration are in a bind. They botched Iraq and Libya, nearly lost Egypt, are in danger of losing Afghanistan and are now having to deal with resurgent Islamist forces in many places. That means they need Muslim countries for support.
They also want a deal between Israel and the Paleos. That means trying to keep the Arab nations more or less on the sidelines.
2. The Iranian Mullahcracy:
The President and his administration desperately want a deal with the Iranian theocracy/IRGC on their nuke program. That means avoiding alienating them at nearly any cost.
Domestic:
This is, for the most part, a long-game area for Mr. Obama and his organization. He needs to retain or cultivate the favor of these groups post-presidency:
1. African American:
The administration, despite its rhetoric, hasn't actively supported them as much as its leadership would like. For example, they did not send anyone senior to the rallies in Ferguson or NYC, though they did send representatives to one of the funerals. Sending someone senior to a "paleskin" rally in Paris would have been a reminder.
2. American Muslims:
This is a long-term project and a group Mr. Obama and his camp would dearly love to cultivate. Hence the administration's actions and words (or lack thereof.)
3. Hispanics and other non-muslim ethnic groups. Again, a long-term project, though not as critical as the first one and already more entrenched in support than the second.
3. Progressives:
Already in Mr. Obama's pocket, though support could erode. His foreign policy issues are to a significant extent due to trying to meet the expectations of progressives. They may be disappointed but they likely won't abandon him and any future political candidates or issues he supports.
4. Potential and current financial donors:
This is a bit more nebulous, consisting of short, medium and long term (post-presidency) objectives, and involves placating and providing opportunities and positive (international and domestic) climates to potential and current individual and corporate donors.
Rather off-the-cuff and not fully thought out, but there it is.
[WashingtonPost]. Hackers claiming allegiance to the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems.... took control of the social media accounts of the U.S. military’s Central Command on Monday, posting threatening messages and propaganda videos, along with some military documents.
The command’s Twitter and YouTube accounts were eventually taken offline, but not before a string of tweets and the release of military documents, some of which listed contact information for senior military personnel. A Centcom front man confirmed their accounts were “compromised,” and said later that the accounts have been taken offline while the incident is investigated more.
“CENTCOM’s operation military networks were not compromised and there was no operational impact to U.S. Central Command,” a military statement said. “CENTCOM will restore service to its Twitter and YouTube accounts as quickly as possible. We are viewing this purely as a case of cybervandalism.”
Military officials added in the statement that their initial assessment is that no classified information was posted, and that none of what was released came from Centcom’s server or social media sites. The command will notify Defense Department and law enforcement authorities about the release of personally identifiable information and make sure that those affected are notified as quickly as possible, Centcom said.
not clear whether the hackers are actually with the Islamic State, sympathizers with the bad boys, or simply pulling a prank on the Pentagon. But J.M. Berger, an analyst and non-resident fellow with the Brookings Institution, said there is reason to believe it could be someone affiliated directly with the Islamic State.
ISIS has a team of hackers who are very deeply involved in ISIS the organization, said Berger, author of the forthcoming book ISIS: The State of Terror.
They have been practicing and recruiting for a while, and this has been going on for months and months, Berger said.

"Why does CENTCOM even *have* a Twitter account?"
They probably got run off of MySpace.
(I hear they're trying to set up a bulk deal with Match.com.)

Why don't they just get a party-line and save a few bucks?
[MEDIAITE] Tucker Carlson asked this morning if its time to rethink immigration policy and stop people from nations where Islamic extremism exists from entering the United States. He said on Fox & Friends that while obviously most Moslems are good, decent people, the Gay Paree shootings remind everyone that theres a religious problem going on and there is a part of Islam that has gone completely off the rails.
He also questioned that maybe La Belle France is having these problems because it has the largest Moslem population in Europe. Carlson tied it into immigration and asked this provocative question:
Is it time to rethink immigration policies in Europe andby the way, also here in North Americato pay attention to the country of origin. Is it a good idea to let a lot of people from countries where violent Islamism is rife come to this country? What do we get out of it?

[CNN] U.S. Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you know Kerry Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat, conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State... defended the B.O. regime against criticism for not having a high level official attend a unity march in Gay Paree and said he will head to La Belle France on Thursday.
The one guy -- the one guy -- the White House could have sent that would have made the French really happy, and they didn't do it. Brilliant politics there, ValJar, simply brilliant...
Kerry called the criticism "quibbling" when asked about the absence at the anti-terrorism rally Sunday. At least 3.7 million people attended the event -- including 40 world leaders -- in a show of solidarity against the terror attacks in La Belle France over the past week.
"The U.S. has been deeply engaged with the people of La Belle France since this incident occurred," Kerry told news hounds, adding that the United States has offered intelligence and law enforcement help.
"This is sort of quibbling a little bit in the sense that our assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland was there and marched, our ambassador was there and marched, many people from the embassy were there and marched."
Kerry made his comments from India, where he was attending an entrepreneurship summit with new Prime Minister Narendra Modi -- with whom the United States is hoping to develop much closer trade ties.
"I've been here in India for a prior planned event, would've personally very much wanted to have been there (in La Belle France) but couldn't do so because of the commitment that I had here," Kerry said. "But that is why I am going there on the way home, to make it crystal clear how passionately we feel about the events that have taken place there."
Kerry expects to leave on Thursday and arrive in La Belle France on Friday.
French President François Hollande's office also defended Obama. A bigwig told CNN's Ace newshound Christiane Amanpour that the U.S. president has been "very present" since the attacks, noting that he was one of the first leaders to call Hollande last Wednesday.
The official also pointed to Obama's visit to the French Embassy in Washington last week. "For us It was an emotional moment of solidarity," the official said.
Attorney General Eric Inaction Jackson Holder ... aka Mister Fast and Furious... was in Gay Paree attending a security summit on combating terrorism. He recorded interviews that appeared on several U.S. news outlets Sunday, but was not spotted at the unity march.
On Sunday night, a White House official who asked not to be named added: "It is worth noting that the security requirements for both the President and (Vice President) can be distracting from events like this - for once this event is not about us!" The official did not address how other prominent world leaders were able to work around the security requirements.
British Prime Minister David Cameron ... has stated that he is certainly a big Thatcher fan, but I don't know whether that makes me a Thatcherite, which means he's not. Since he is not deeply ideological he lacks core principles and is easily led. He has been described as certainly not a Pitt, Elder or Younger, but he does wear a nice suit so maybe he's Beau Brummel ... , German Chancellor Angela Merkel ...current chancellor of Germany. She was educated in East Germany when is was still run by commies, but in 1989 got involved with the growing democracy movement when the Berlin Wall fell. Merkel is sometimes referred to by Germans as Mom... , Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov were among those who attended, along with religious leaders.

Peshawar is situated near the eastern end of the Khyber Pass, convenient to the Pak-Afghan border. Peshawar has evolved into one of Pakistan's most ethnically and linguistically diverse cities, which means lots of gunfire. 's Army Public School reopened for educational activities along with other institutions in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa ... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central... and other parts of the country.
Soldiers were positioned with sophisticated weapons on roof tops and all around the institute's premises. Military vehicles were patrolling along the outer wall cordons which have now been raised to more than 10 feet high and have had barbed wires fixed on top. High zoom cameras have also been installed at several points.

[DAWN] Building on recent accusatory statements by government representatives, Federal Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on Monday claimed that India was helping terrorist groups in Pakistain to carry out "heinous acts".
In an interview on DawnNewss programme News Eye, the minister alleged that India "has designs on Pakistain".
The Taliban have links with India. Also, Indias involvement in the insurgency in Balochistan ...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it... cannot be ignored, he said.
When asked to provide evidence for his claim, the minister dodged the question and proceeded to claim that a low intensity war was underway.
He stated that his allegations were based as much on conviction as on experience.
Public statements against India have been making their way into mainstream media. A day earlier, Adviser to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif ... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf... on National Security and Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz ...Adviser to Pak Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on National Security and Foreign Affairs, who believes in good jihadis and bad jihadis as a matter of national policy... had said that India was involved in acts carried out from Afghanistans soil in Pakistain.
Asif said that India wants to keep Pakistain busy with skirmishes on the eastern border so that the country remains distracted from the war on its western borders and the terrorism within.
Military sources had also claimed on Monday that one part of US Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you know Kerry Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat, conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State... 's visit would focus on the sharing of intelligence reports and evidence of Indian involvement in subversive activities across Pakistain. The evidence is alleged to credibly identify financial support, training and provision of weapons to Death Eaters.

"Military sources had also claimed on Monday that one part of US Secretary of State John Kerry's visit would focus on the sharing of intelligence reports and evidence of Indian involvement in subversive activities across Pakistan. The evidence is alleged to credibly identify financial support, training and provision of weapons to militants."
A failed first world nations runs to support a failed third world nation.
[DAWN] UN chief the ephemeral Ban Ki-moon ... of whom it can be said to his credit that he is not Kofi Annan... urged India on Monday to help shore up stability in war-torn Afghanistan after the departure of US troops, saying the world was relying on the South Asian nation to play a lead role.
Speaking on a visit to the capital New Delhi, Ban said India had a huge role to play on the security front in a region that has been beset by unrest.
The world is looking at India to help advance peace and prosperity in South Asia, the UN secretary general said at a pubic lecture.
Continuing instability in Afghanistan and Pakistain is not only the responsibility of these two nations. These challenges should be addressed through greater bilateral parleys.
The security challenges in Afghanistan cannot be solved by military process. It needs regional support from India, he added.
India has poured $2 billion in reconstruction aid into Afghanistan and has been asked for further support, including military assistance in Kabul's battle to contain a Taliban insurgency after a NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A collection of multinational and multilingual and multicultural armed forces, all of differing capabilities, working toward a common goal by pulling in different directions... combat mission wound up at the turn of the year.
But while pledging to do all it can to promote stability, New Delhi is wary of being sucked into a proxy war in Afghanistan involving allies of its nuclear-armed neighbour Pakistain.
Neither country has signed up to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) but in his speech, Ban urged India to embrace the idea of nuclear disarmament to avoid a nightmare scenario.
South Asia faces danger of nuclear weapons. Addition to arsenal raises risk of nuclear nightmare. I request India to express solidarity in nuclear disarmament, Ban said.
Since first becoming a nuclear power in 1974, India has said it would only ever use atomic weapons in response to an attack as part of its no first use doctrine.

[DAWN] Seeking to de-seat Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf ...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations.... (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan ... aka Taliban Khan, who who convinced himself that playing cricket qualified him to lead a nuclear-armed nation with severe personality problems... from his National Assembly membership in view of his perpetual absence from the House's sessions, the Jamaat Ulema-e-Islam ...Assembly of Islamic Clergy, or JUI, is a Pak Deobandi (Hanafi) political party. There are two main branches, one led by Maulana Fazlur Rahman, and one led by Maulana Samiul Haq. Fazl is active in Pak politix and Sami spends more time running his madrassah. Both branches sponsor branches of the Taliban, though with plausible deniability... Fazl (JUI-F) on Monday decided to move a resolution against the cricketer-turned-politician in the Parliament.
"Our wedding gift to Imran Khan will be de-seating him from his NA membership," said JUI-F Central Information Secretary Hafiz Hussain Ahmed while speaking to Dawn.
Last week, Khan tied the knot with DawnNews anchor Reham Khan in a low-key ceremony.
As mandated by the Constitution, no member of the Parliament can remain absent for 40 consecutive sessions. In a case where a member is absent for 40 sessions, any member of the Parliament can bring attention of the NA speaker to the motion to unseat the member.
It may be mentioned that Khan has remained absent from the house for 41 consecutive days his latest being today's session.
JUI-F MNA Naeema Khishwar has been directed by party chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman Deobandi holy man, known as Mullah Diesel during the war against the Soviets, his sympathies for the Taliban have never been tempered by honesty ... to table the resolution in the NA.
Fazl and Imran have exchanged heated words on numerous occasions. Tensions between the two politicians had reached a new level after the May 2013 general elections.

[DAWN] Aaqai Ali Osat Hashemi, the Governor of Iranian province of Sistan-Baluchestan, has said that there are no border disputes and tensions between Pakistain and Iran and some non-state actors were involved in attacks on Iranian checkposts and killing of soldiers across the border.
Addressing a presser along with Balochistan ...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it... Chief Minister Dr Abdul Malik Baloch at the end of his two-day visit to Quetta on Sunday, Mr Hashemi said that Iran had requested the authorities in Pakistain to help in returning the bodies of Iranian soldiers killed in such attacks.
Balochistan Home Minister Mir Sarfaraz Ahmed Bugti, Home Secretary Akbar Hussain Durrani, IG Police Amlish Khan and other bigwigs were present at the presser.
Governor Hashemi, who headed a high-level Iranian delegation, held meetings with government leaders and military officials, including Balochistan Governor Mohammad Khan Achakzai and Chief Minister Dr Baloch and discussed issues relating to trade, Death Eater attacks and mortar shelling by Iranian forces on Pak border areas. Views were also exchanged on the problem of smuggling.
Responding to a question, Mr Hashemi revealed that law and order have never been an issue in Pak-Iran border areas and both countries have not faced any threat from each other and will not face any in future.

[DAWN] KARACHI: With business and commercial activities at a standstill in the city in response to a call by the Muttahida Qaumi Movement ...English: United National Movement, generally known as MQM, is the 3rd largest political party and the largest secular political party in Pakistain with particular strength in Sindh. From 1992 to 1999, the MQM was the target of the Pak Army's Operation Cleanup leaving thousands of urdu speaking civilians dead... , the MQM buried on Sunday its seven workers and supporters, including two doctors, killed in police custody and incidents of assassination.
The MQM staged a sit-in in front of the Chief Minister House after giving the call for a day of mourning on Saturday night. As the Sindh CM did not come out to meet the protesters by Sunday morning, party chief Altaf Hussain gave a strike call for Monday also, but withdrew it after a few hours on requests of traders, transporters, school owners, etc.
The joint funeral prayers of three MQM workers and one sympathiser Syed Faraz Alam, Muhammad Rehan, Abdul Rauf Mehmood and Dr Ali Akbar were offered at the Jinnah ground in Azizabad in the afternoon, while the funeral prayers of MQM supporters Syed Naeem Jaffery, Syed Jaffer Abbas and Dr Yawar Hussain were held at the Rizvia Imambargah ...since Pakistain is very religiously correct, Shia Moslems can't call their houses of worship 'mosques,' which are reserved for Sunnis. It's not clear if imambargahs are used for explosives storage like mosques are... in Nazimabad.
Faraz died in police custody, while bullet-riddled bodies of Rehan, Jaffer and Naeem were found in the Mochko area. Rauf, Dr Akbar and Dr Abbas fell prey to assassination.
Moving scenes were witnessed as a large number of MQM workers, office-bearers, politicians and relatives of the victims attended the funeral prayers in the Jinnah ground and at the Rizvia Imambargah.
Charged workers accompanying the funeral procession of MQM workers Rehan and Rauf shouted slogans against the government and the law enforcement agencies and buried them in the Shuhda graveyard in Azizabad amid tears and sorrow. The other five victims were buried in different graveyards in Malir, Paposhnagar, Surjani Town and off the Superhighway.
Earlier, the MQM sit-in continued for eight hours in front of the CM House, but no government official, including CM Qaim Ali Shah, came out to meet the protesters.
At 9am Sunday, MQM chief Altaf Hussain, who was speaking to the protesters over telephone from London, gave a 15-minute deadline to the CM asking him to come outside, console the victims families and assure them that his government would take action against the killers; otherwise the MQM would extend its day of mourning for one more day and call for a complete strike in Sindh for Monday.
The deadline passed but the CM or no other official came outside the CM House and subsequently, the MQM announced that a complete strike would be observed on Monday.
The party also wrapped up its protest sit-in for the funeral of the victims. As soon as the MQM workers vacated the road, Information Minister Sharjeel Memon came outside and told the awaiting media that the government was in touch with the MQM and trying its best to arrest the killers.
He appealed to the MQM chief to review his strike call decision as Monday would be the first day when schools would reopen after the winter break.
With all commercial activities suspended and public transport remaining off the roads, the news of another strike on Monday caused anxiety among businessmen, traders and transporters, who approached the MQM leadership and requested them to review the decision.
Finally, the MQM chief asked the coordination committee to take back the strike call for Monday, but asked them to observe a peaceful day of mourning.

[israeltimes]. Session later this month follows requests form a dozen nations to address ‘alarming outbreak’ worldwide
The UN General Assembly will hold an informal meeting on the growth of anti-Semitism on January 22 in response to a request from dozens of nations, including Israel, the United States and all European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... members.
The 37 countries sent a letter to assembly President Sam Kutesa on October 1 calling for a meeting in response to “an alarming outbreak of anti-Semitism worldwide.” That was well before last week’s attack on a kosher supermarket in Gay Paree.
The 37 countries said they were requesting a meeting of the 193-member world body because “a clear message from the General Assembly is a critical component of combatting the sudden rise of violence and hatred directed at Jews.”
"Be it resolved that we need more. All in favour, say 'Aye.' " "AYE!!"
"All opposed: Nay."
"...nay..."
"The Ayes have it!"
[IsraelTimes]. The non-payment of salaries and poor economic conditions are fueling unrest in the Strip, while Israel’s withholding of PA tax revenue isn’t helping in the West Bank either
By the end of last week, dozens of houses throughout the Gazoo Strip were flooded by rainwater. Three babies froze to death. The humanitarian conditions continue to be bad, perhaps the worst in the past two decades, due to the withholding of the salaries of PA and Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, employees. And yet, amid all the tumult, Hamas (the same organization that condemned the Charlie Hebdo ...A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe... attack in Gay Paree) found the time to clash with the Paleostinian Authority and Fatah.

Thenon-payment of salaries and poor economic conditions...
Which leads to the obvious question - what the fuck kind of productive / positive economic activity actually takes place in Gaza? I'm guessing none, and that anything taking place monetarily is just the EU bailout money getting paid to the serfs, after the Hamas and PA dickheads take their cut and rake some / a lot off the top.
[CNSNEWS] Probably quite true. But the Soviet Union took 75 years to do it.

Uhhh, General Dempsey, are you out of your fucking mind???
The Moslem religion has not collapsed under its own contradictions yet...still going strong and still shedding blood for 1300 years.
You need to read the Quran and study history the contradictions of Islam have been there since the beginning and they just gloss over it with Fatwas and crazy crap interpretations.
Of course, since most Moslems don't read the Quran but rely upon their local tin hat Imam, its easy to gloss over the contradictions.

Gen. Dempsey: ISIL Will 'Collapse Under Its Own Contradictions'
I suppose you could say the same thing about Adolph Hitler. However, there seemed to be a need to speed the demise of the tyrant Hitler before his destruction spread across the world. IMO the same is true for Islam. When "moderate Muslims" reach a critical mass in a country, they cease to be moderate.
