Oh and those “fiscal conservatives” in the House have already approved $1.3 billion in military aid and $250 million in economic aid to Egypt for this year.

“Look, the Taliban per se is not our enemy. That’s critical. There is not a single statement that the president has ever made in any of our policy assertions that the Taliban is our enemy because it threatens U.S. interests. If, in fact, the Taliban is able to collapse the existing government, which is cooperating with us in keeping the bad guys from being able to do damage to us, then that becomes a problem for us.”

During a joint session of the Senate and House Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday, the Maine Republican referenced a letter from the Defense Department depicting the Fort Hood shootings as workplace violence. She criticized the Obama administration for failing to identify the threat as radical Islam.

Thirteen people were killed and dozens more wounded at Fort Hood in 2009, and the number of alleged plots targeting the military has grown significantly since then. Lawmakers said there have been 33 plots against the U.S. military since Sept. 11, 2001, and 70 percent of those threats have been since mid-2009. Major Nidal Hasan, a former Army psychiatrist, who is being held for the attacks, allegedly was inspired by radical U.S.-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, who was killed in a U.S. drone strike in Yemen in late September. The two men exchanged as many as 20 emails, according to U.S. officials, and Awlaki declared Hasan a hero.
The chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, Connecticut independent Sen. Joe Lieberman, said the military has become a “direct target of violent Islamist extremism” within the United States.

What’s next? Is this piece of sh*t Obama going to refer to 9/11 as an “Air Mishap?”

He spent much of his time on the Internet, according to sources, and regularly visited TrueIslam1, a radical website that describes itself as a “blog setup to educate people about the True Religion of Islam as revealed to the Last Prophet Muhammad.”

Pimentel first came to the attention of authorities at least two years ago. Authorities say they have been tailing him for more than a year.

Good to know that Bloomberg decided to take time off from his salt crusade to deal with the Muslim (convert.) Oh and before the lame stream media begins crediting Obama for “foiling” this “alleged” terrorist plot, know it’s the NYPD and not Obama who caught Pimental.

After the foiled Saudi and Israel embassy bombings by Iran in America, I wonder if this was the second round from Iran? According to Fox News/AP, a terrorist Muslim opened fire with an automatic weapon Friday in what authorities called a terrorist attack on the U.S. Embassy in Sarajevo Bosnia. Or as the Obama regime would call it, a man caused disaster. Remember Sarajevo? They held the 1984 Winter Olympics before Yugoslavia split. Thankfully, no one yet has died from the radical Muslim’s terrorist attack. Just one cop injured. Almost like one of the various Occupy riots. The Muslim terrorist was also injured and captured.

Sarajevo Mayor Alija Behmen said the gunman “got off a tram with a Kalashnikov and started shooting at the American Embassy.” Witnesses told Bosnian television that the man urged pedestrians to move away, saying he was targeting only the embassy.
One police officer guarding the building was wounded before police surrounded the gunman. After a 30-minute standoff, the sound of a single shot echoed and AP video showed the shooter slump to the ground.
Police arrested the wounded man — who one of Bosnia’s three presidents said is a foreigner — and took him away in an ambulance as pedestrians cowered behind buildings and vehicles.

I asked Director McCraw if he knew whether Elibiary had access to TX DPS reports on the HS SLIC, to which he replied:

We know that he has accessed DPS documents and downloaded them.

McCraw stated that he will be requesting that DHS conduct an investigation to determine whether or not Elibiary improperly handled any sensitive intelligence products, and said that he will reserve judgment until an investigation is complete. He added:

If in fact this happened we will be extremely disappointed in him. We’ve worked with him and other groups to get their comments regarding a wide range of issue in order to be inclusive.

.

In fact, Elibiary received his first official position serving on the TX DPS Advisory Board and leveraged that position into his current positions with DHS and the National Counterterrorism Center. Elibiary was appointed to the Homeland Security Advisory Council in October 2010.

I asked about the potential impact of a security breach that has been alleged to have occurred in this instance:

This system allows intelligence agencies to share products. These products are meant to be for official use only and anyone working for the Department of Homeland Security attempting to use it in any other way undermines the efficacy of the program. If DHS has cleared somebody for access we have no questions, but if they violate the confidentiality of the system it has a chilling impact on sharing information, and that’s the last thing we need.

While Pino’s comments may seem shocking, the professor has been linked to these sentiments before. In 2003 Pino wrote an article that some said was “glorifying a suicide bomber,” and in 2009, was reportedly linked “to terrorist activity – such as posting bomb-making instructions on a terrorist website.” Pino admitted to colleagues that he had contributed articles to a website entitled “Global War,“ which describes itself as a ”jihadist news service.” When the controversy first emerged in 2007, Journalism professor Tim Smith, fellow faculty member at the university which is well known for its progressive history,

“We voted for our brother, Barack, beautiful human being with a sweet heart and now he is an assassin, they’ve turn him into them,” Farrakhan told a crowd in New York in reaction to Obama’s efforts depose “Brother Gadhafi.”

Abdul Akbar Muhammad, international representative of Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam, told The Daily Caller that Obama’s position on Libya was completely wrong, but that he doesn’t want his words to fuel the “racist” tea party.

“Obama, his position, is absolutely wrong. To use drone attacks to kill people, just like what happened in Yemen, we have the ability to bring people to trial. We are a nation of laws, and if a man is accused of a crime and has not been convicted, what gives you the right to say he should be killed?” Muhammad said.

Suck it Farrakhan. I can’t wait until Rev. Wright makes his statements on “Brother Gadhafi.”

Newsbusters recalls how PBS in 1986 called Qaddafi an Islamic Hero. That of course was the taxpayer-funded PBS documentary series by an Islamic professor that honored Qadhafi as “brilliant.”

Then of course there was this leaked Wikileaks cable in which the warmonger RINO John McCain promised to help Qaddafi. Today, McCain is going all over the media praising Obama for the rebels killing and capturing Qaddafi. Back in August of 2009, the warmonger McCain was out praising Qaddafi, even calling on Congress to expand ties with Qaddafi’s government.

There are plenty more of these hypocrites and media lickers. Hopefully I’ll find them later. If not, you can always Google it!

Who would have thunk it? Abdel Basset al-Megrahi outlives Qaddafi. Even with the rebels catching and killing Qaddafi, it cost this country over a billion dollars in “leading from behind” helping the European countries protect their oil interests. I guess it’s still not a bad deal. Seeing a bullet put into Qaddafi’s head after all these years still has a certain gratification to it. I can’t wait to hear Farrakhan and Rev. Wright’s reaction.

“The U.S. is committed to holding Iran accountable for its actions,” Holder said. He said the White House will be meeting with federal agencies before announcing “further action” in regards to Iran.

I wonder what that so called “further action” might be. More useless sancations? Maybe more apologizing for America?

This, and Ron Paul’s hatred of Jews and Israel is why I would never support the guy. Otherwise, he’s pretty damn solid!

Fox News has learned that two Predator drones hovering above al-Awlaki’s convoy fired the Hellfire missiles which killed the terror leader. According to a senior U.S. official, the operation was carried out by Joint Special Operations Command, under the direction of the CIA. A total of four people were killed in the attack.

“Matching up a terrorist with a shoulder-fired missile, that’s our worst nightmare,” said Sen. Barbara Boxer, D.-California, a member of the Senate’s Commerce, Energy and Transportation Committee.

The nightmare has been made real with the discovery in Libya that an estimated 20,000 portable, heat-seeking missiles have gone missing from unguarded Army weapons warehouses.

The missiles, four to six-feet long and Russian-made, can weigh just 55 pounds with launcher. They lock on to the heat generated by the engines of aircraft, can be fired from a vehicle or from a combatant’s shoulder, and are accurate and deadly at a range of more than two miles.

While it remains unclear how many aircraft are involved, the trend has reportedly increased in recent weeks.

Southwest Airlines has ordered its employees not to discuss the matter with the media, Feldman said.

A measly 20% said the hearings should be discontinued because “they are offensive to Muslims.” That’s about the same percentage who identify themselves as liberals or progressives in this country. Coincidence? Seventeen percent did not know, or refused to answer. Maybe they are just afraid of being attacked or something.

You’d expect that from Obama, or maybe Muslim Rep. Keith Ellison, but Quigley? Then i remembered who once represented this district. Rahm Deadfish Emanuel, Rod Blagojevich, Dan Rostenkowski, etc. Now it makes a little better sense.
