British government raises terror threat
Update: Sources in the federal government say that an Islamic terror attack coming from Mexico is imminent.
Original post:
While Obama has admitted he has no strategy to deal with ISIS, the British government today raised its terror threat level to “severe.”
[Home Secretary Theresa] May said the threat level was raised because of the risk from the deteriorating situation in Iraq and Syria, where extremist militants from the group calling itself the Islamic State (also ISIS or ISIL). May said, however, that there was no specific threat to Britain that caused the raise in the terror level. This is the first time Britain’s terror threat level has been at “severe” since 2011. “The increase in the threat level is related to developments in Syria and Iraq where terrorist groups are planning attacks against the West. Some of these plots are likely to involve foreign fighters who have traveled there from the UK and Europe to take part in those conflicts,” May said in a statement.
Add to this the fact that U.S. intelligence has noted a “significant increase” in chatter among terrorist organizations as September 11 approaches.
Islamic terrorists have celebrated September 11 several times previously with terrorist attacks. We shouldn’t be surprised if they do it again, especially as they now have a resurgent base of operations with many resources in the territory now controlled by ISIS.
Barack Obama meanwhile will probably find out about the next terrorist attack from a newspaper he reads, after he finishes his next very important round of golf.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.

Lets see, you have a very liberal “open” boarders policy and incentivize the movement of people (many from your former conquered colonies so they may already arrive with an agenda counter to your own) who have a fundamental religious and life belief system very different from your own and can not or refuse to assimilate to their new “home” country, you subsidize them through social programs which incentivizes them to reproduce and become a voting force in your country and now you have a terrorism problem in your country.
For some reason that sounds familiar but I can not quite put my finger on what it is that is familiar. Anyone have any suggestions as to why this sounds familiar?
PS: And now they have legal passports that allow them to freely and legally move in and out of your country or most other country’s, they are now second generation, most without jobs or a hope for a future and speak both their original language and English, some traveling to fight to support their true philosophy and then come “home” militarily trained and battle hardened and further along on their agenda of ” fundamental change” in their “home” country. Fundamental change, where have I heard that before?
This is suicide of sovereignty and nation.
Obama is following Teddy Roosevelt’s advice, “speak softly and carry a big stick,” except that in Obama’s case, it is a golf club.
