It's really hard to think about how much time has passed and how little has been done at Ground Zero. The first towers took 7 years to build, and somehow twelve years later the new ONE (stupid freedom tower) is not done yet. I look back at the footage from that day and am incensed by how much we (as a Country) have forgotten. Last year I mentioned religionofpeace.com which is keeping a running count of all deaths, over twenty one thousand, related to islamic terror since 9/11/01.
Now with all the turmoil in Egypt, Libya and Syria, more than ever we need a reminder about who the enemy are. Let me be clear islamic terrorist come in all shapes and sizes, whether it be a single nut like the Ft. Hood massacre, a coordinated group like the 9/11 hijackers, a "political group like the muslame brotherhoods or the religious extremist that make up the entire govt of Iran, we have much to fear.
Syria for example is a civil war between different parties of the same nuts. Syrian president Basher Assad is an islamic nut who has been slaughtering his own people by the thousands, but the "rebels" who are trying to topple his govt are also islamic nuts who have relationships with al qieda and the mulame brotherhoods. Both sides curse America and Israel on a regular basis and we cannot support any of them. This civil war will have to play out and then we will have to deal with the victors.
I leave you with footage from 9/11/01, as a reminder that we have an enemy that hates us and until we are all dead or enslaved, will continue to fight us by any means. We have to keep fighting back, they will not be placated with gifts like the north korean yahoos, they have to stood up to and fought at all cost, AT ALL COST, I cant make that part clear enough.

The Crumbling Obama
After watching the three presidential debates I have figured out why Obama's campaign is failing. Obama's persona is a big issue, along with the people he's surrounded himself with. Then there is also the media's complicity in the whole thing, which despite being in the tank for Obama I think turned out to be his worst enemy. The last four years have been very telling, having a record to run on (or run from) is a definite factor as well.
In 2008 Obama was a virtual unknown in the world of politics. A jr senator from Illinois he came out of nowhere and exploded on the scene with a cult of personality that just overpowered the well known Hillary Clinton in the primary and made John McCain the stereotypical picture of the Republican party, stuffy, old, white, male. Obama saw this explosion and took advantage of being an unknown, He could be whatever people wanted him to be. He was young, mixed race, had a strong voice and a name that rebellious young liberals knew would piss off their fathers. We had people saying Obama was going to pay off their homes, cars, college loans, Obama himself said that he would end racial tensions in America and would make us loved all over the world on day one. No one cared he had never held a real job, no one read the books on who his father was and where he came from. People were caught up in the cult and never stopped to ask if Obama was qualified to be President of the United States. You couldn't oppose him, if anyone asked questions you were shouted down as a racist and dismissed. When he hid his college records or distanced himself from the church he sat in for 20 years it made no difference. Nothing could penetrate the cult. But this developed into a weakness no one would see for four years. Obama like the late Michael Jackson had surrounded himself by yes-men, every word he said, no matter how absurd, was praised. When he put on a funny southern accent it was charming, when he made fun of how old McCain was, he was witty. I'm sure someone even snatched a tissue he sneezed in as a keepsake.
The mainstream media was complicit in the cult of Obama. They ran with Obama's "Hope and Change" slogan. They swooned, they tingled, they fainted, they slobbered all over themselves to make Obama the sure thing. They even went so far as to bash Clinton, who early on was their golden girl. Remember the halo pictures? The MSM did everything they could to make him untouchable, again using the race card to push down detractors. Obama was their messiah and just like the public, did no vetting of who Obama was. This inflated Obama's ego. Nothing he did caused any strife and he loved every second. But this may be part of his downfall. Now when the media questions him he looks shocked. He seems insulted that anyone would dare question his previously unchallenged intelligence. It's just like raising kids. You can't let them win all the time, you can't tell them they're smart when they answer 2+2 wrong. If you do the child acts petulant and spoiled. Just like Obama at the debates. By never challenging him they turned him into what we see today. The problem is you can't fool all the people all the time.
After four years of Obama's policies the Country is in the slowest recovery in American history, if you believe the recession ended in June 2009 like the administration told us. Obama promised so much in 2008 it should be no surprise that he couldn't get much of it done. But what he didn't do is the least of our problems. We have big problems and as much as Obama wants you to believe it's Bush's fault, the blame lies squarely on Obama's shoulders. The most stand out of Obama's responsibilities is the national debt. In 2008 when Obama took office the ND was $10 trillion, but a mere 4 years later is $16 trillion. Ignoring Obama's promise to halve the debt by the end of his first term, he has run wild with spending. He once said that the $4 trillion Bush added to the debt in 8 years was unpatriotic. Now he tells us that we have to spend our way out of debt, which if anyone else tried would end up on the street if not jail. Obama took Bush's bail-outs to the next level, not just banks, he bailed out the auto industry, he bailed out "green" energy companies, states, and even some companies that aren't even in America. There's Obamacare, a bill no one wanted but congress pushed through. Then there is the jobs, Obama told us that without his bail-outs the unemployment would shoot up to 8%, he told us by now we'd be somewhere around 5%. Problem is the bail-out was a complete failure, unemployment shot up over 10% and now heavily adjusted we sit at 7.8%. There are over 22.6 million unemployed today, but the number the admin uses is 11 million. They don't count people who have been unemployed so long they have given up looking all together. Obama has started a line of quantitative easing that led to 2 downgrades of our national credit rating. While these QE's have been holding up the stock market, its a bubble that will burst when the money stops flowing from the government. Economic growth has been stagnant and this is making us look weak across the globe. Iran's dictator has questioned how much longer we can be a superpower with the debt we have. But that is the tip of the iceberg in his foreign policy failures. He let Egypt and Libya fall under the rule of radical islamist, he looked the other way during the iranian green revolution. He sits by while Syria slaughters its own and puts "daylight between the US and Israel". He betrayed our allies Great Britain Japan, and Poland while bowing to dictators and communist and telling Russian President Medvedev to transmit to Putin that he will be more flexible after the election.
We cannot afford 4 more years of Barack Obama, not in our economy, and not in our national security. We should have been told who he was before he took the most powerful position on the Earth. We needed the MSM to do its job not foist on us an unqualified jr Senator. But now we know, we know who he is, we know what his plans are and we know what he cares about, HIMSELF. We have the ability to stop this train wreck halfway through, we can save ourselves from the rest of Obama's policies and ideas. Ultimately it will be easy, just vote. Vote for Mitt Romey, vote for real change. Change we can believe in.

Where Do We Go From Here?
Being conservative in LA is like wearing a meat jacket in a shark tank. One must be very careful what you say outloud if you don't want to judged, chastised or straight assaulted. Not that I couldn't handle it, after all they're just hippies. I was at a Shabbos dinner the other night which featured a guest speaker Malcolm Hoenlein who is the executive vice chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations talking about how we needed to stop sitting on the sidelines and get in the game. The game he spoke of was sitting on our hands while Iran gets closer and closer to a nuclear weapon. Of course this involved speaking harshly of Obama, muslims and liberalism, which on;y went over so so with the crowd. The speaker did try to tip toe around direct accusations and blaming but we all knew what he was saying.
Diplomatic negotiations with Iran will fail. George Bush tried this with N. Korea, he said America (& the UN) wouldn't tolerate a nuclear NK and sent all sorts of "firm letters". Sanctions will fail. They were useless as well, Kim Jong-Il just starved the people in order to pay for his weapons program. All the hemming and hawing got us was a nuclear armed N. Korea. Sound familiar? This is the same exact situation with a much more threatening bad guy. Ahmadinejad is no pudgy dictator with a love of classic American movies. He HATES us, he HATES Israel and he speaks often of wiping us both out. Joking aside, this is no time for more diplomatic negotiations.
This leaves us with very few options; 1) We can shake our fist with empty threats until Tel Aviv (or New York or Los Angeles) is wiped off the map, then be forced to respond with massive action. 2) We can stop trying to tie Israel's hands, they have done a fine job of keeping both Iraq and Syria out of the nuclear world. Not to mention they are our ONLY real ally in the Middle East and deserve our support. 3) We can take care of it ourselves, I know it's not PC and the liberals will piss and moan, but what are they really gonna do? They're just hippies.
I asked Mr.Hoenlin about characters like George Soros, and he told me we have to call people like him out on their undermining of progress. Warren Buffet, Jeff Immelt and Richard Trumka all need to be brought into the light so their deeds can be seen by all and put to the American people to decide whether we follow them deeper into hell or start climbing out.

Not In The News
In my last post I mentioned Syrians rushing the Israeli border as distraction from the Syrian government massacring it's own people. While that hasn't stopped, (there is new graphic video at Big Peace to prove it) it now seems like the Syrians are just multi-tasking.
Recent intel coming out of Syria says the government is paying farmers who make an average of two hundred dollars a month one thousand dollars to rush the Israeli border. With an extra ten thousand if you are killed in the process, to go to the family. Though seeing what they do to their own people, I wouldn't really expect the govt to pay up. With this new tactic of sending "unarmed" people swarming on the border look for new calls of human rights violations against Israel. Even though if you rush any other country's border (i.e. Mexico, all of Europe, all of the Asia, really the whole world except maybe the U.S.) you will be shot on sight. But this area specifically holds importance.
The Golan Heights, which has been a often fought for chunk of land is currently in the possession of Israel. While Obama would have Israel return Golan to Syria, it is a strategic defense point for Israel. Notice the word heights, Golan is a small mountainous are right at the border. As any strategist will tell you high ground is key to defense. By keeping a close watch from Golan Israel can see any Syrian activity coming and can defend itself properly. If Israel were to give up Golan the Syrians would have easy access to Northern Israel.
The north-east is just another of Israel's problems, when you're surrounded by enemies on all sides you'd better have your head on a swivel.

Just Saying
- Let me state clearly, I don't care about Weinergate.
- Mitt Romney recently said he believes in "Man-made global warming", and now he is dead to me.
- Herman Cain is a better choice anyway, even if the racist at Time Magazine are ignoring him.
- Unemployment went up, the stock and housing markets went down, so of course Obama is out saying things are better. I can't even laugh at what an incompetent leader he is.
- Does anyone else thing Syria is starting border issues with Israel to take the attention off of them slaughtering their own people?
- If the ecoli outbreak in Europe has taught us anything it is eat less vegetables.
- Speaking of food, Big Sister Mrs.Obama has dumped the food pyramid for myplate, someone should tell her myspace is old news. I don't know who I dislike more her or her husband.
- California was ranked 49 out of 50 for "Most Business Friendly States". No wonder I can't find a job.
- I shaved my head and disappointed a lot of people, but summers are hot and I am too broke to afford a barber. My hair will make a comeback in the fall.
