Nazi-Style Propaganda from the Obama Administration by Shoebat Foundation on August 28, 2013 in Blog, General By Keith Davies Watching the US media today – along with the Chief of propaganda John “Goebbels” Kerry, we are watching a classic case of Nazi-style aggression against another country without any concrete proof of the use of weapons of mass destruction by the accused party. “Undeniable evidence” has not been shown to us just as the Nazis trumped up lies against Poland to justify its invasion to start World War 2. We have shown that there is strong evidence to suggest the Rebels fired these Chemical weapons and not Assad. No national or international agency or media source has been able to show who fired the weapons. Walid Shoebat, based on meticulous research, is the only source that has provided significant evidence to suggest that it was the rebels. Video of a rebel saying that he is using Sarin gas and a video of Chemical warheads being fired using a special artillery gun seems pretty convincing. Did Goebbels write Obama’s propaganda playbook? While Assad of Syria is no saint and is a purveyor of national and international terrorism, the opposition that is trying to overthrow him are religious fanatics backed by Al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood. The devil you know is better than one you also know to be worse. Over the last ten years of occupation and wars in the Middle East by successive US governments, it seems we continue to make one blunder after another. We have contributed in a major way to setting the Middle East ablaze. Sadly, this potential blunder is more like a deliberate ego trip based on “red lines” or the actions of a fool who We the foolish People handed the keys to the White House and the command of the most powerful military in the world. I wonder, does Obama think he is about to play a video game on his X box? Our intelligence services have proven to be very unreliable in the past, especially when it comes to proving ownership of chemical weapons. Remember the Second Gulf War? The Democrats when Bush was president never let us forget those facts until they themselves happen to be guilty of the behavior they accuse their opposition of in the past. As Rush Limbaugh said recently, “We have seen this movie before.” Biden, another Nazi-style propagandist, threatened to impeach Bush if he used force before Congressional approval. Now, based on his own words, he should threaten to impeach his boss and resign as vice president: [iframe width="440" height="325" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/1tjMcNZ-smk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border-width: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: transparent;"][/iframe] Syria has offered to allow more UN inspections. Yet, the president says “it is too late.” I can just imagine if George Bush was in power. The once Senator Obama would be the first to condemn Bush for his haste. Do you remember the criticism on the surge in Iraq? Based on our vast experience and knowledge – both of the Middle East and the exposition of the Obama administration – it is beyond obvious that Obama wishes to empower the Muslim Brotherhood. It is also obvious that major military pressure will be put on Israel if Obama uses military strikes against Syria. Iran and Syria have threatened to attack Israel if the USA attacks. We know this is a very valid threat as Hezbollah has thousands of high-grade rockets and missiles that can possibly reach Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. In 2006 – in the last major war with Israel – Hezbollah fired hundreds if not thousands of rockets against cities in Northern Israel. Obama has used the tactics to go to war just like Hitler used to take over Europe; the same tactics were used to take over Libya. The media has been used to portray a picture of Assad and the facts do not support any military action. The USA has ignored the plight of Sudanese Christians murdered in the millions. The USA continues to ignore the persecution of over a hundred thousand murdered Christians a year. The USA has ignored the holocaust in Rwanda. Now we must involve ourselves in a civil war where the winner – whoever wins – will remain an arch enemy of the United States. Ninety percent of the American people disagree with any military action against Syria but the political class from both sides seems to think it is a good move. It seems the politicians don’t care about We The People and that is the real problem.

Then why are you so obsessed with Zimmerman, refusing to accept the jury verdict?

Armed Massachusetts Store Clerk Ends Armed Robbery Without Firing a Shot August 27 2013 by Dan Cannon If you’re considering a career in armed robbery you’ll probably want to take notes from this attempted robbery as things not to do. A would be armed robber entered a Massachusetts liquor store with plans of getting some quick cash. The suspect’s head was covered with white cap with eye holes cut out. The suspect even voiced his current state of mind during the robbery. According to WWLP the suspect said, “I’m all cracked out! Give me all your cash.” Nothing says professional criminal like voicing your level of impairment during the commission of a crime. The suspect, armed with a large knife, quickly found he was outgunned when the clerk then pulled out his own handgun and pointed it at the suspect. At this point, the suspect then fled the scene. Police tried to track the suspect, but were ultimately unsuccessful. This is another great example of an armed citizen stopping a crime without firing a shot. Because of this fact, this incident will likely not be included in many self defense statistics which often only list incidents in which shots were fired or someone was killed. gunssavelives.net Everytime a citizen successfully defends him or her self from a criminal, a Democrat loses and a Republican wins. SUNDERLAND, Mass. (WWLP) - "Don’t bring a knife to a gun fight." A liquor store clerk foiled a robbery attempt by pulling a gun on an admittedly drugged-up man, armed with a knife in Sunderland Friday afternoon. Sunderland Police Chief Jeffrey Gilbert told 22News that a man wearing a white knit cap with holes cut out for his eyes, walked into the Spirit Shoppe on Amherst Road, and pulled out a large knife. According to Chief Gilbert, the robber told the clerk, "I'm all cracked out! Give me all your cash." At that point the clerk displayed his own weapon, a handgun of unspecified caliber, and the unsuccessful robber ran out of the store empty handed. No one was hurt. Police dogs were called in to track the suspect, but they lost the scent on Amherst Road leading police to believe he may have gotten into a waiting getaway car. wwlp.com

Harvard Study – Gun control doesn’t work Here’s a piece of news that isn’t going to sit well with all the gun grabbing nannies who look to liberal colleges like Harvard for guidance. The Bearing Arms blog reports. Harvard: Gun control doesn’t workYou’re going to want to read all of this (PDF). “Would Banning Firearms Reduce Murder and Suicide? A Review of International and Some Domestic Evidence” in the Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy is the stuff of gun grabber’s nightmares. Don B. Kates and Gary Mauser have compiled a heavily foot-noted academic report that is nonetheless very compelling and relatively easy to digest. Small Government Times offers a summary: The Harvard study attempts to answer the question of whether or not banning firearms would reduce murders and suicides. Researchers looked at crime data from several European countries and found that countries with HIGHER gun ownership often had LOWER murder rates. Russia, for example, enforces very strict gun control on its people, but its murder rate remains quite high. In fact, the murder rate in Russia is four times higher tahn in the “gun-ridden” United States, cites the study. ”Homicide results suggest that where guns are scarce other weapons are substituted in killings.” In other words, the elimination of guns does not eliminate murder, and in the case of gun-controlled Russia, murder rates are quite high. The study revealed several European countries with significant gun ownership, like Norway, Finland, Germany and France – had remarkably low murder rates. Contrast that with Luxembourg, “where handguns are totally banned and ownership of any kind of gun is minimal, had a murder rate nine times higher than Germany in 2002. The study found no evidence to suggest that the availability of guns contributes to higher murder rates anywhere in the world. ”Of course, it may be speculated that murder rates around the world would be higher if guns were more available. But there is simply no evidence to support this.” 0 0 Read the original article: Harvard: Gun control doesn’t work ( Bearing Arms)
