Diversion, diversion, diversion. Thy name is Spin.

Plot to assassinate Saudi Ambassador or murder-for-hire sting.......?

The news that Holder’s DOJ had bagged a ‘terrorist mastermind’ named Manssor J. Arbabsiar followed shortly on the heels of my last post about ‘spin,’ and the ways ‘stakeholders’ in the DOJ/ATF Fast and Furious story may be using it to sell their own POV, lack of culpability, or, in the case of the press, newspapers or their e-equivalents.

So the caller who woke me up way too early to tell me about US law enforcement’s latest tour de force, the discovery and preemption of an Iranian murder plot to assassinate the Ambassador of Saudi Arabia, really only had one question: “Is this the kind of ‘spin’ you’ve been talking about?”

Well, gee. It took me a minute, but my initial impression is the one I’m sticking with–if it isn’t spin, it should be, because the media ball is back in DOJ’s court–the story’s knocked the Fast and Furious scandal off the front page, replacing it, apparently, with a tale told by an idiot, a US national who’s failed at every job he’s ever had, from selling used cars to hawking luncheon fajitas.

On full display as well is an exceptional discharge of sound and fury—Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (the lady in charge of issuing exemptions to the Arms Export Control Act) and top dogs from the FBI, DOJ, ICE, DEA, and even the CIA, charging through the halls of the UN in Manhattan demanding further ‘isolation’ of Iran. Brrrrr

And, of course, in the end, it’s a tale that signifies…what?

That there are countless wannabe conspirators wandering the mean streets of LA, Dallas/Ft. Worth—wherever USA—heads filled with squeegee plots to rid the world of real or imaginary evils?

That when these hapless miscreants connect with law enforcement informers, whose own fates depend on helping agents build career-enhancing cases, the pot begins to boil?

That the best way to kill a story about the enemy within is to refocus attention on a bigger, badder enemy without?

I’m not sure. . .

But here’s a version of the “Iran Plots Terrorist Strike on US Soil” story (told to me) that I’d like to share with you.

Let’s start with the protagonist, Manssor J. Arbabsiar, who by dint of his ethnicity, may or may not have a beef against the US, Israel, and Saudi Arabia.

But one thing we do know: he wants and needs to make money—no easy task for the dumb-and-dumber, especially in a hard economy.

But there’s a silver lining to this cloud: Arbabsiar has a relative, in Iran’s Quds Force, and this ‘cousin’ wants to help both his kinsman in the US and their countrymen in Iran via a collection of touchdowns for the home team.

And what does that mean?

Global Day of Rage: Reporting Inside NYC’s Massive Occupy Times Square March


By the time I infiltrated the drum circles and sing-alongs of Occupy Wall Street early this afternoon, there had already been reports of offshoot protests in more than 80 countries, including China, Japan, Indonesia, and England. The frightening mob violence in Rome, with flame-engulfed cars shown on every cable news channel, set an ominous tone for the day.

After all, Rome was just a satellite protest. The Occupy main event was set to be New York City’s Times Square.

Rules For Dating My Daughter

Via Walter Zoomie's World
Rule One:
If you pull into my driveway and honk you'd better be delivering a package, because you're sure not picking anything up.

Rule Two:
You do not touch my daughter in front of me. You may glance at her, so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off of my daughter's body, I will remove them.

Rule Three:
I am aware that it is considered fashionable for boys of your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all of your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open minded about this issue, so I propose this compromise: You may come to the door with your underwear showing and your pants ten sizes too big, and I will not object. However, in order to ensure that your clothes do not, in fact, come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securely in place to your waist.

Rule Four:
I'm sure you've been told that in today's world, sex without utilizing a "barrier method" of some kind can kill you. Let me elaborate, when it comes to sex, I am the barrier, and I will kill you.

Rule Five:
It is usually understood that in order for us to get to know each other, we should talk about sports, politics, and other issues of the day. Please do not do this. The only information I require from you is an indication of when you expect to have my daughter safely back at my house, and the only word I need from you on this subject is "early."

Rule Six:
I have no doubt you are a popular fellow, with many opportunities to date other girls. This is fine with me as long as it is okay with my daughter. Otherwise, once you have gone out with my little girl, you will continue to date no one but her until she is finished with you. If you make her cry, I will make you cry.

Rule Seven:
As you stand in my front hallway, waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh and fidget. If you want to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead of just standing there, why don't you do something useful, like changing the oil in my car?

Rule Eight:
The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter: Places where there are beds, sofas, or anything softer than a wooden stool. Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns within eyesight. Places where there is darkness. Places where there are dancing, holding hands, or happiness. Places where the ambient temperature is warm enough to induce my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, midriff T-shirts, or anything other than overalls, a sweater, and a goose down parka - zipped up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided; movies which feature chain saws are okay. Hockey games are okay. Old folks homes are better.

Rule Nine:
Do not lie to me. On issues relating to my daughter, I am the all-knowing, merciless god of your universe. If I ask you where you are going and with whom, you have one chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I have a shotgun, a shovel, and five acres behind the house. Do not trifle with me.

Rule Ten:
Be afraid. Be very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway for a SCUD missile coming in over a sand dune near Kuwait. When my Post Traumatic Stress starts acting up, the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home. As soon as you pull into the driveway you should exit your car with both hands in plain sight. Speak the perimeter password, announce in a clear voice that you have brought my daughter home safely and early, then return to your car - there is no need for you to come inside. The camouflaged face at the window is mine.

Afrikaner farmer Douw Brummer, 50, executed, farm Goedgedacht, Dwaalboom near Botswana border

The corpse of fifty-year-old single farmer Douw Brummer was left for eight hours on the lawn of his homestead after he was shot dead execution-style: with a shot through the back of his head on Tuesday-night Oct 11 2011.

Police spokeswoman ltcol Ronel Otto said his workers discovered his body at 6am Wednesday-morning. His farm is located near the Botswana border. He was divorced and childless, living alone.

The Transvaal Agricultural Union security representative Pieter Roets said from all the traces it appeared as if the killers were laying in ambush waiting for Brummer.
"It was cold-blooded murder,' he said. Brummer had had two breakins at his farms - and also gave a picture of a specific man to his neighbours and said that 'if anything happened to him, this would be the man responsible'.

The photograph was shown to the investigating police.

Shoot the whites – new hatesong

Gregory Stanton of GenocideWatch.org/SouthAfrica.html is correct: the whites are in great danger of genocide

’Al Jazeerah columnist David Africa noted recently: “The ANC, once a bastion of non-racism, descends into racial politics: Malema targets Boers; Jimmy Manyi targets Coloureds… " Africa is an independent security analyst based in South Africa. He has previously worked in counter-terrorism intelligence and research, and served in the underground of the then-banned African National Congress in South Africa.”

Shoot the White People’ – they now sing:

On Friday-evening October 14 2011 at the University of Witwatersrand, a black student representative council member sang ‘Shoot the White People’ ( ‘dubulu lekgoa’ ) in front of an approving crowd shortly before youth leader Malema was going to give a speech about ‘economic freedom’ there: the song was apparently sung and coined by Tokeio Nhlapo, a member of the SRC and also of the ANC youth league. Afterwards, he ‘refused to explain what he meant by the song’, he reportedly told journalist Llewellyn Prince who witnessed the incident. Meanwhile the ANC’s so-called ‘internal hearing’ about Malema’s alleged misconduct in regards to his publicly calling for a revolution in neighbouring Botswana, also is continuing behind closed doors. It will continue on 26 Oct 2011 – just one day before Malema together with the Cosatu co-ruling trade union movement, plans their two-day-long ‘campaign for Economic Freedom’. The two organisations are bussing in as many members as they can from all the provinces, ordering them to descend on Johannesburg for the two-day rally – with plans to move to the Johannesburg stock exchange and then to Pretoria – where these many hundreds of thousands of black men plan to camp out overnight and put the country’s seat of power, the Union Buildings, under siege.

The Tenth Point (of the Communist Manifesto) I, II , III & IV

The Tenth Point
Thirty seven years ago this year my family and I became involved in a historic event that was to help to change our lives and that has, in subtle ways, changed the direction this country has gone in.
It was the textbook protest in Kanawha County, West Virginia. Many don't even remember this event. Many others would just as soon bury this event under a pile of liberal verbiage that never has and never will give the protesters' side of the issue. This, unfortunately, is typical of the liberal/Marxist mindset. Their supposed tolerance extends only to those who espouse their views, while everyone else must be suppressed.
The Tenth Point (of the Communist Manifesto) Part 2
Here are some brief observations about the textbook controversy in Kanawha County, West Virginia made in the Summer of 1975 (shortly before we moved to West Virginia). When I originally wrote this, the textbook protest had been going on for something like ten months.


I expect, at this point, I need to shed a little light on the origins of the public, or government, school system. It is worth noting, contrary to the most vocal liberal opinion, that the "public school movement" in this country did not even exist until the 1830s.

The Tenth Point (Of the Communist Manifesto) Part 4

Today we see a giant, monster public education bureaucracy, financed by Washington (with our money). There is, after all, nothing quite like financing your own destruction. Horace Mann and the Order notwithstanding, we have as much crime, poverty, and sin as we ever had--more in fact. We should be able to look back at how wrong Horace Mann was, intentionally or otherwise, and see how closely akin to Marxism his thought processes were. Mann was a beautiful example of what I call the Yankee/Marxist.

Update: George Washington Statue Hidden In Box By NAACP

COLUMBIA -- A state agency is clamping down nine months after complaints about the NAACP boxing in a statue of George Washington at its annual King Day at the Dome rally on the Statehouse steps.

People requesting to use the Statehouse for events now have to read and acknowledge state Budget and Control Board rules that say they can't obscure visibility or access to any part of the Statehouse grounds or its monuments.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People erected a three-panel backdrop around the Washington statue on the Statehouse steps. The civil rights group said at the time it was there only as a backdrop and not intended as an affront to Washington. Its annual Statehouse rallies are part of a decade-long protest of the Confederate flag that flies there.

The state has more compelling issues to be worried about, said Dwight James, the state NAACP's executive director. He said the barrier protected the statue and has been used for several years.

The state's response, James said, is "an example of extravagant preoccupation with a non-issue at a time when the energies of the General Assembly would be better spent concerning itself with the polarized economic and racial climate of the state and why the State continues to allow the most obvious symbol of racism, the Confederate stars and bars, to occupy the most prominent position on the statehouse grounds."

Blah, blah, blah.......$NAACP$.
