Focused like a laser: Not only has Barack Obama not attended an intelligence briefing since Sept 5, he canceled the briefing yesterday, the day after the attacks on our embassies in Egypt and Libya.
And why did he not have a briefing yesterday? He had a campaign fundraiser he just had to attend in Las Vegas.
The White House has disavowed the apology to the Muslim protesters issued by its embassy in Egypt earlier today.
“The statement by Embassy Cairo was not cleared by Washington and does not reflect the views of the United States government,” an administration official told POLITICO.
In other words, the Obama State Department isn’t cowardly, it’s simply incompetent. What a relief!
An evening pause: I think the human choices made on September 11 illuminate well the contrast between the Islamic culture of death and the Western culture of life. This film describes the western approach.
More Islamic violence: The U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, was attacked and set on fire today.
I wonder how long it will take for the Obama State Department to apologize to these protesters.
That’s telling ’em! The U.S. Embassy in Egypt, in response to the attack by Islamic protesters today, has apologized to the protesters because their feelings might have been hurt by a film critical of Mohammad.
The full embassy statement is beyond belief:
The Embassy of the United States in Cairo condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims β as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions. Today, the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, Americans are honoring our patriots and those who serve our nation as the fitting response to the enemies of democracy. Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy. We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others.
Freedom of speech means you have the right to offend others, with no apologizes. Considering the violence continually perpetrated by Islam, it is perfectly justified to criticize this hateful religion. In fact, to its face I say Islam is a stain on the Earth which oppresses millions while killing hundreds of innocents on a daily basis.
For the Obama State Department to apologize for our country’s belief in freedom of speech, on this day of all days, September 11, is unspeakable. What kind of cowards are these people?

Feel the love! Cairo protesters today scaled the U.S. Embassy wall in Egypt and pulled down the American flag to protest a film they say is insulting to the prophet Mohammad.
In related news, a television station has canceled the airing of a documentary on Islam because of threats it and the filmmaker have received.

The religion of peace: Iran has finally released a Christian pastor who had been threatened with execution for not renouncing his religion.
What does this mean? Canada today severed all diplomatic ties with Iran, shutting down its embassy in Iran while ordering all Iranian diplomats out of Canada.
A man was arrested in Toronto on Saturday for walking his dog in a public park, because the dog’s presence offended some Islamic demonstrators.
Fiddling while Rome burns: Iran now has enough enriched uranium to build six nuclear bombs.
What gives me the willies is this quote:
Meanwhile, Iran, in collaboration with China and North Korea, has stockpiled more than 1,000 ballistic missiles capable of reaching all U.S. bases and oil fields in the region, Israel and several capitals in Europe. Iran currently is working on intercontinental ballistic missiles under the guise of its space program that will soon be capable of reaching any point on the planet. It has produced hundreds of cruise missiles, a clear threat to the flow of oil out of the Persian Gulf, and has armed its vessels with long-range ballistic missiles, with plans to expand its naval mission into the Atlantic Ocean and right behind the Gulf of Mexico.
According to a former intelligence officer of the Revolutionary Guards now defected to a country in Europe, Iran also has several neutron bombs (super-electromagnetic weapons). The source, who attended a commandersβ briefing by the Revolutionary Guards, said they have discussed a strategy in which βmany planes will fall from the skyβ β a clear indication that Iran is prepared to deliver an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack. The International Atomic Energy Agency has verified that Iran has test-launched ballistic missiles off ships in an exercise similar to an EMP attack.
Worse, the leaders of Iran have made it clear they are quite willing — in the name of Allah — to use these weapons to commit wholesale genocide.
Islamic tolerance: A Nigerian Muslim terrorist group has said it will stop its terrorists attacks if that nation’s Christian President converts to Islam.
How nice of them.
The civility of the left and Islam team up! An Obama-backed Muslim Group is now blaming Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minnesota) for the Sikh shooting this past weekend.
What did Bachmann do? She raised questions the Obama administration’s links with Islamic terrorists groups. And of course, that must obviously explain why a white-supremacist went on a rampage killing innocent Sikh worshipers in Wisconsin.
Islamic good will: The Muslim leader who was heading an βTolerance in Islamβ conference was attacked by one of the attendees. With video of the attack.
In response to the attack, Morou [sic] said, βI am fine now, the damage is moralβ¦ We are here to speak about tolerance, but those people are ignorant of true Islam. I donβt know what his [the attacker’s] political orientation is, and regardless, this is not part of Islam.β
And in what part of Islam do we not see this kind of violence and intolerance?
Muslim tolerance: βGet the [expletive] Jews out of my pool!β
Note that this happened in Santa Monica, California, not Iran.
The modern Democratic Party: The Democratic candidate for Secretary of State of Missouri claims that no Jews were killed on 9/11, while also suggesting that Jews were involved in the attack itself.
βWhy [was] 9/11 was a official holiday for all Jewish people who worked in the the WTC?β Alam said in a discussion titled, βWas 9/11 a conspiracy??β
Asked earlier this week about this statement, Alam reaffirmed his position. βMy question was, βWhatβs the reason not a single Jew was killed on that day,ββ Alam said, according to the Washington Free Beacon. βWas there a single Jew killed on that day?β
Gee, I wonder what he would say to these people?
The religion of peace: “Christianity should be destroyed and wiped from the face of the earth.”
The religion of peace: A Dearborn Muslim has been charged with nine counts of attempted murder for trying to run down a crowd of Christian protesters with his car.
This event is related to the stoning of Christians by Muslims at the Dearborn Arab Festival in June.
The religion of peace: Iran plans to attack U.S. commercial planes should an attack occur on its nuclear program. Also,
All political prisoners and all activists within the country are to be slaughtered, as are those Iranian opponents outside the country, to ensure no viable opposition will remain to guide an uprising to overthrow of the regime.
