"I started the Arab Spring. Now death is everywhere, and extremism blooming"

It is hardly surprising that when Faida Hamdy wonders whether she is responsible for everything that happened after her moment of fame she is overwhelmed.  Mrs Hamdy was the council inspector who, five years ago today confiscated the vegetable stall of a street vendor in her dusty town in central Tunisia. In despair, that young man set himself on fire in a protest outside the council offices.

Some Muslims in U.S. irritated by Obama’s call for them to root out “extremism”

“‘We would never ask any other faith community to stand up and condemn acts of violence committed by people within their groups,’ said Palestinian-American activist Linda Sarsour, who has worked extensively with the Black Lives Matter movement and other minority groups. ‘The fact that this is only directed at the Muslim community is something that I personally can’t accept.'”

A New Global Police to Fight “Violent Extremism” in the U.S.?

The Obama administration plans to create a global police force that counters “violent extremism” in the United States and elsewhere. -- The problem is that in Obama-speak “violent extremism” refers not only to jihadists wishing to harm Americans but also to conservatives and Tea Party activists. Just ask all the law-abiding right-of-center nonprofit groups targeted by Lois Lerner’s IRS during the Obama presidency.

Another Example of shameful Global Warming Propaganda

(Hat tip: John Eidson)
Angry Kid, A Greenpeace Global Warming Video - "In a threatening tone, this angry young kid implies that man-made global warming theory is beyond dispute, a totally bogus assertion. Why does the environmental left so often resort to false claims?

Dr. Patrick Moore, a co-founder of Greenpeace, expressed the thoughts below after leaving the organization due to his belief that the modern environmental movement has become a bastion of far-left extremism. When the Soviet Union collapsed, fears of a nuclear holocaust diminished. Looking for a new cause, anti-war activists flooded into the environmental movement, bringing with them their strident pro-Marist, pro-Sandinista and anti-capitalist views of the world. Dr. Moore writes:
    “Since its founding in the late 1960s, the modern environmental movement has created a vision that was international in scope and had room for people of all political persuasions.”

    “The traditional sharp division between left and right was rendered meaningless by the common desire to protect our life support systems. Truth mattered, and science was respected for the knowledge it brought to the political debate.”

    "Now, this broad based vision is challenged by a new philosophy of radical environmentalism. In the name of deep ecology, many environmentalists have taken a sharp turn to the ultra-left, ushering in a mood of extremism and intolerance."

    "These factors have combined to contribute to a new variant of the environmental movement that is so extreme that many people, including myself, believe its agenda is a greater threat to the global environment than that posed by the mainstream of society."
Environmental extremism is causing an increasing number of international scientists to change sides in the global warming debate, yet the alarmist community continues to claim that man's impact on climate change is beyond dispute. To read Dr. Evans’ article about greenhouse gas theory, click HERE.

How does Oregon rank for clean and green?

Senator Ted Ferrioli noticed that no one was asking this question. He said that Oregon ranks 43rd out of 50 states with 50 being the top ranking. He added that the seven states with higher rankings are small northeastern states that would all fit withing the boundaries of Oregon. This is a ranking that we should be very proud of. Apparently many of Oregon's environmental extremists (City of Corvallis and Benton County Commissioners included) don't agree for all the radical changes they propose. --bc Read More......

Revolution against the West

Muslim's hand out flyers in NYC calling for 'revolution against the West.
Act for America (E-mail notice), Febuary 13, 2008

An ACT! for America supporter in New York recently came across a group of Muslims who were handing out flyers. She got in line to take one and alerted us to what was being distributed.
We direct you to RevolutionMuslim.comACT! for America was founded by Brigitte Gabriel, a Lebanese immigrant who came to the United States after losing her country of birth to militant Muslim fundamentalists during the Lebanese Civil War. Gabriel is now an American citizen and urges Americans to be aware of and "to "act" regarding these current issues:

  • FBI discrimination against Christians and Jews who apply to be Arabic translators.

  • The existence of Islamic paramilitary camps operating on American soil.
  • Radical Muslims posing as "refugees" and gaining entrance to the United States under the Humanitarian Refugee Act.
  • The need for First Amendment protection for journalists who report on militant Islamic activities.
  • Increasing pro-Islamist and anti-American and anti-Israeli bias in high school and college courses and textbooks.
  • The growing number of Madrassas (Islamic schools) proliferating in the United States, schools that frequently teach hatred of Christians, Jews, Americans, and non-Muslims. Anti-American, anti-Christian and anti-Jewish hate speech in mosques in America.
  • Islamic radicals posing as Hispanic immigrants to enter the United States across our southern border.
  • Islamic radicals teaming up with illegal immigrant gangs in illicit activities, such as drug smuggling, to provide funding for terrorist organizations.
  • Iran's nuclear weapons program.
  • Islamic charities that serve as conduits for funding of Islamic terrorist organizations.
  • The existence of terrorist sleeper cells in the U.S.
  • The need to reduce American independence on Middle Eastern oil.
  • Defeating al-Qaeda in Iraq.
  • Purveyors of political correctnesss: How the political Left in America denies, apologizes for, or blames America for the rise in Islamic extremism and terrorism.
