A federal district court in Manhattan yesterday entered a historic ruling that reveals new facts about Iran’s support of al Qaeda in the 9/11 attacks. U.S. District Judge George B. Daniels ruled yesterday that Iran and Hezbollah materially and directly supported al Qaeda in the September 11, 2001 attacks and are legally responsible for damages to hundreds of family members of 9/11 victims who are plaintiffs in the case.

Judge Daniels had announced his ruling in Havlish, et al. v. bin Laden, et al., in open court on Thursday, December 15, 2011, following a three-hour courtroom presentation by the families’ attorneys. Judge Daniels entered a written Order of Judgment yesterday backed by 53 pages of detailed Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law.

Why is Obama empowering Iran with $150 Billion and in time nuclear weapons and the means to delivering them given Iran’s history of killing Americans and consistently calling for Death to America? Why?

T. Belman.  I met Pamela in the spring of 2008 in New York City. We were both attending a pro-Israel lecture. We also attended a CAMERA Annual Dinner as guests of Eli Hertz and sat at his table. Pamela and I were both fighting the election of Obama by writing the truth. Pamela went on to write, along with Robert Spencer, The Post American President. And that is not all she did.

She went on to establish herself as one of  the most pre-eminent critics of Islamization. Everything she writes is based on the facts. Her many critics distort what she says and lie about her. Even threaten her.

She literally has dedicated her life to defending America and Israel and truth.

Over the years, we have kept in touch. I pray for her safety.

PORTRAIT

One very popular and important journalist who is ever present in American politics, sociology, and economics is the political activist Pamela Geller, the founder of the organization Stop Islamization of America. Born in 1958, Pamela Geller resides and works in New York City.

She is an American journalist who specializes in many continuing issues with the United States economy, sociology, and the politics of Barack Hussein Obama. Geller’s popularity is based on the fact that she is well known for the investigative, truthful reports she writes regarding Islam and jihadists. Pamela Geller is the founder, editor and publisher of AtlasShrugs.com, now pamelageller.com and President of the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) and Stop Islamization of America (SIOA).

Since 1948, we Arabs have been taught that all we need to do is get rid of the Jewish state, and ?everything else will go well after that. Our dictators took full advantage of this idea. Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser locked up and executed his opposition members ?using his famous excuse: “No voices are to be allowed except for those for the war with ?Israel.” Iraqi President Saddam Hussein adopted the Palestinian flag and had it ?printed, distributed and flown alongside his own flag, and even said, “Palestine and Iraq share the same ?identical cause.” In short, we Arabs have put 70 years of our existence on hold while awaiting that ??”glorious day” when we defeat Israel and “feed the Jews to the fish.”

The nuclear deal with Iran’s fanatical anti-Jewish regime will fuel racism on a global scale.

By Ruth R. Wisse, WSJ July 30, 2015

Barack Obama’s election to the presidency represented to many Americans this country’s final triumph over racism. Reversing the record of slavery and institutionalized discrimination, his victory was hailed as a redemptive moment for America and potentially for humankind. How grotesque that the president should now douse that hope by fueling racism on a global scale.

The Iranian regime is currently the world’s leading exponent of anti-Jewish racism. Comparisons to Nazi Germany are always a last resort, since even with all the evidence before us it is hard to fathom the evil the Nazis perpetrated. Yet Iran’s frank genocidal ambition dwarfs its predecessor’s. Whereas Adolf Hitler and Reinhard Heydrich had to plot the “Final Solution” in secrecy, using euphemisms for their intended annihilation of the Jews of Europe, Iran’s Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei tweets that Israel “has no cure but to be annihilated.” Iran’s leaders, relishing how small Israel is, call it a “one bomb state,” and until the time arrives to deliver that bomb, they sponsor anti-Israel terrorism through Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other militias.

At first, Obama said we couldn’t talk about his Iranian Nuke Deal unless it was finalized. Then, Obama said we couldn’t talk about his Iranian Nuke Deal unless we read it all – and simply didn’t disclose all of his side-deals. Now, he says Mike Huckabee’s comparison of shipping the Jews of Israel to the new ovens of the Iranian Auschwitz-Nuke is “ridiculous.”

Perhaps Obama wants to wait until Iran nukes Israel for it to be politically correct to call Iran’s wiping Israel off the map a “Holocaust.” But, make no mistake, Obama knows full well that Iran intends to wipe Israel off the map with its Obama-blessed Nukes.

Come on, does anyone (except the American left-wing cool-aid drinking Jews) really believe that Iran will abide by their “voluntary” protocols under the Vienna announcement? Of course not! Are Obama or any of the European Union leaders so rank stupid and naïve that they think Iran won’t build a bomb just like North Korea? Does anyone not know that one of Iran’s first targets will be to annihilate Israel?

The problem with this perception is that nothing Turkey does is quite as straightforward as foreign diplomats and uninitiated analysts in the West often suppose.

JPOST

Turkey’s recent air strikes grab the headlines worldwide and are used by the Obama administration to suggest that its Middle East policy is not as bungled as meets the eye. The US, it is asserted, has won itself another ally in the war against Islamic State and a formidable ally at that.

The problem with this perception is that nothing Turkey does is quite as straightforward as foreign diplomats and uninitiated analysts in the West often suppose.

Turkish bombers did fly some sorties against Islamic State encampments after a recent Islamic State suicide bombing in the southeastern Turkish city of Suruc killed 32 people.

T. Belman. Iran has developed a method to take over countries in the ME without invading them. She succeeded in Lebanon, Syria and Iraq. The only force opposing them is ISIS and now the US has cut a deal with Turkey to allegedly defeat ISIS in Syria. As a result of this deal, the US has given Turkey a green light to defeat the Kurds. Iran also has great influence over Kurdistan in Iraq using their proven methods. She is now trying to take over Yemen using the Houtis. And so it goes. Thanks to Obama, she will now have $150 Billion it needs to further her takeovers. By the way, remember that Obama backed the takeover of Hamas by Turkey and Qatar.

In late June, I traveled to Iraq with the purpose of investigating the role being played by the Iranian-supported Shia militias in that country.

Close observation of the militias, their activities, and their links to Tehran is invaluable in understanding what is likely to happen in the Middle East following the conclusion of the nuclear agreement between the P5 + 1 powers and Tehran.

An Iranian stealth takeover of Iraq is currently under way. Tehran’s actions in Iraq lay bare the nature of Iranian regional strategy. They show that Iran has no peers at present in the promotion of a very 21st century way of war, which combines the recruitment and manipulation of sectarian loyalties; the establishment and patient sponsoring of political and paramilitary front groups; and the engagement of these groups in irregular and clandestine warfare, all in tune with an Iran-led agenda.

The most charitable explanation for support expressed for the Iran deal by former senior Israeli security officials is a total eclipse of their faculties of rational thought.

By Dr Martin Sherman, JPOST

[After Gamal Abdel Nasser’s death] the ability of the Arabs to coordinate their political and military activities has diminished. Even in the past this ability was not great – now it is even less.

There is no need to call up our forces, even when threats are made and enemy forces are deployed along the [post-1967] cease-fire lines. Before the Six Day War, every Egyptian troop movement into Sinai compelled Israel to call up reserves on a significant scale. Now, there is no need for such a callup as long as Israel’s lines of defense are emplaced along the Suez Canal.

While Israel and official Washington remain focused on the deal President Barack Obama just cut with the ayatollahs that gives them $150 billion and a guaranteed nuclear arsenal within a decade, Obama has already moved on – to Syria.

Obama’s first hope was to reach a deal with his Iranian friends that would leave the Assad regime in place. But the Iranians blew him off.

They know they don’t need a deal with Obama to secure their interests. Obama will continue to help them to maintain their power base in Syria though Hezbollah and the remains of the Assad regime without a deal.

Obama has decided that two wildly unpopular policies, one foreign and one domestic, will be the final legacy of his wildly unpopular administration. The domestic policy is gun control. The foreign policy is Iranian nukes. While Americans will be disarmed, Iran will be getting ready for its ballistic missiles.

Ramming through wildly unpopular policies is what this administration does best. More than anything else, this administration will be remembered for the mix of bullying, smears, pop culture distractions, outright lies, bureaucratic sabotage and blatant lawbreaking with which it achieved its policy goals.

Iran is no different.

• Turkey says that it, together with the US, wants an IS-free zone in northern Syria. That is fine. But who will fill the vacuum in areas cleared of IS?
• Turkey simply finds joining the international campaign against the Islamic State an opportunity to install pro-Sunni Islamist rule in areas now controlled by IS.
• In all reality, Prime Minister Davutoglu wants to replace extreme Islamists with less extreme Islamists. Turkey is trying, with U.S. help, to make Syria an extension of Turkey for Muslim Brotherhood Sunni Islam.

Two Turkish air strikes kill at least 190 PKK fighters
DEBKAfile July 31, 2015, 9:13 AM (IDT)
Turkish intelligence sources report that at least 190 members of the Kurdish PKK were killed in two air strikes early Friday against their bases in Iraq and Syria. Around 30 Turkish F-16 fighter-bombes conducted the assaults.

by Bill Weinberg on Wed, 07/29/2015 – 22:16 WW4 Report

Well, the long-awaited “other shoe” is finally dropping. It is clear that Washington has given Turkey a green light to crush the revolutionary Kurds—in Turkey, Syria and Iraq alike—as the price of Ankara’s cooperation against ISIS. And it’s also pretty clear that crushing the Kurds is far more of a priority for Ankara than fighting ISIS. The New York Times writes: “Turkey’s new airstrikes…against the Islamic State…came alongside an equally intense barrage on Kurdish militants in Iraq, whose Syrian affiliates are also fighting the Islamic State.” Equally intense or far more intense? Media accounts have few specifics of ISIS targets hit by the Turkish strikes. But Haaretz reports: “Turkish fighter jets launched their heaviest assault on Kurdish militants in northern Iraq overnight since airstrikes began last week… The F-16 jets hit six targets in Iraq and were scrambled from an air base in Turkey’s southeastern province of Diyarbakir… Turkey began bombing PKK camps in northern Iraq last Friday in what government officials have said was a response to a series of killings of police officers and soldiers blamed on the Kurdish militant group.”

DEBKA

Iran is about to conclude a transaction with China for the purchase of the Chengdu J-10 multirole jet fighter, known in the West as the Vigorous Dragon, according to an exclusive report from DEBKAfile’s military and intelligence sources. Beijing has agreed to sell Tehran 150 of these sophisticated jets.

While the Chinese J-10 is comparable to the US F-16, our sources report that it is virtually a replica of the Lavi, the super-fighter developed by Israel’s aerospace industry in the second half of the 80s. Israel sold China the technology, after Washington insisted on Its discontinuing the Lavi’s production. The US also objected to the sale of the Lavi’s avionics, claiming that it contained some American components.

Shaked suggests that a lower court should determine ownership in land dispute cases.

Sima Kadmon, YNET

Following the demolition of the houses in the West Bank settlement of Beit El, Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked called to transfer hearings on land disputes in the West Bank to another tribunal other than the High Court of Justice.

Shaked told Yedioth Ahronoth that “the root of the problem is the fact that all the rulings regarding land disputes in the West Bank are handed down by the High Court and not regular courts.” Wednesday, MK Moti Yogev (Bayit Yehudi), said that “a Caterpillar D- 9’s bulldozer blade should be raised against the High Court”.

“The whole system is distorted,” Shaked said after the demolition of the houses at Beit El, and before the evacuation of settlers barricaded in the former West Bank settlement of Sa-Nur, completed at 7am Thursday.

T. Belman. I see meting out a cruel and unusual punishment to Pollard as a very unfriendly act in keeping with other unfriendly acts such as insisting, for almost 50 years, on Israel retreating to the ’67 lines and making this Iran Deal with total disregard of Israel’s security.

By Bert Raphael, Q.C., LSM
President, The Jewish Civil Rights Association

The news that Jonathan Pollard may be releases in November of 2015 is an announcement that is long overdue.

Some time ago I was retained as Canadian Counsel for Jonathan Pollard. I delivered many speeches on his behalf in Canada and in Israel. I once received a letter from then President Bill Clinton that he would look into the matter.

The tragedy of Jonathan Pollard is that he has served more time in jail for supplying state secrets to a friendly nation than any person ever convicted of supplying state secrets to an enemy. His original Trial was flawed when then Secretary of State Caspar Weinberger sent a note to the Trial Judge asking that a plea bargain that had been in place be rescinded. Such an intervention in Canada would have amounted to a mistrial.

Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has warned that the Obama/Kerry deal with Iran could lead to an Iranian-lead nuclear Holocaust against Israel that would, “take the Israelis and basically march them to the door of the oven.”

Hillary Clinton, who has endorsed the Iranian deal, has denounced Mr. Huckabee, saying Huckabee’s comments are “personally offensive”. President Obama is likewise offended, as is Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a congresswoman from Florida who is the go-to Jewish member of Congress Mr. Obama uses when he wishes to bar Mr. Netanyahu from speaking or when he needs “Jewish” support for policies and actions that appear harmful to Israel.
