SOMALI pirates late yesterday attempted to storm the French navy's 18,000-tonne Indian Ocean fleet flagship after mistaking it for a cargo vessel. The crew of La Somme, a 160m command vessel and fuel tanker, easily saw off the brazen night-time assault by lightly armed fighters in two open-topped motorboats, and captured five of the pirates. "The pirates, who because of the darkness took the French warship for a commercial vessel, were on board two boats and opened fire with Kalashnikovs," Admiral Christophe Prazuck said last night. La Somme is the French command vessel in the Indian Ocean, overseeing French air, sea and land forces fighting Somali pirates and hunting terrorists under the banner of the US-led Operation Enduring Freedom. Officers on the ship have directed commando operations to free French hostages held by Somali pirates. The pirates tried to flee when they realised their mistake but were pursued by French forces, who caught one of the skiffs after an hour-long chase. On it they found five men but no weapons, water or food as the pirates had reportedly thrown all the boat's contents overboard. The world's naval powers have deployed dozens of warships to the lawless waters off Somalia over the past year to curb attacks by pirates in the busy maritime trade route. La Somme was operating 460km off the Somali coast, on its way to resupply fuel to frigates patrolling shipping lanes as part of the EU's Operation Atalanta anti-piracy mission. This was not the first time Somali pirates have mistakenly attacked a French naval vessel. Several pirates were captured in May when they tried to board a frigate in the area. Somalia has had no proper government since it plunged into lawlessness after Mohamed Siad Barre was overthrown in 1991.
The country is riven by fighting, and pirate gangs operate from several ports along its Indian Ocean and Gulf of Aden coasts. Read more here ... Source: The Australian Somali Pirates Latest recipients of the Evil Dumbass Award
 By David Horowitz The radical Islamic state of Iran is leading a global movement calling for a second Holocaust — the elimination of Israel from the face of the earth. The Islamic terrorist organizations Hizbollah and Hamas are calling on Muslims to destroy the Jewish state and kill the Jews in those exact words. And on campuses across the United States, radical professors and student groups are lining up to support the genocide. The day Israeli troops left Gaza – a territory that has been used as a launching pad for three aggressive wars against the Jewish state – Hamas terrorists began a three-year campaign of rocket attacks on Israel that was only halted by an Israeli counter attack, which began in December 2008. As Israel was defending itself from these Hamas attacks, University of California Sociology professor William Robinson assembled pictures university administrators described as “lurid” of Nazis persecuting Jews and emailed them to all the students in his course on globalization along with a diatribe about how the Israeli soldiers fighting Hamas terrorists were no different from fascist troops in World War II destroying the city of Warsaw. Robinson’s propaganda message had no educational context, was unrelated to the subject of the course, and allowed for no alternative viewpoints. It had nothing to do with education. It was purely an act of aggression, part of an intensifying war against the Jews that has broken out on many fronts across American higher education.

Insane P.I. Bill Warner Not to be confused with Bill Warner, the director of CSPITwo deranged individuals, Jim Sutter (supported by CAIR) and Bill Warner (claims Geert Wilders is a Nazi), have joined forces to defame Muslims Against Sharia and Khalim Massoud. Before you buy into their lies and distortions, please consider the sources: http://www.phonyrev.com/ & http://insanepi.blogspot.com/. "Jeremy Buff" Bill Warner's Facebook sock puppetUpdate: Bill Warner has a Facebook sock puppet " Jeremy Buff," who continues to spread Warner's lies about MASH. The problem is that Warner/Buff cannot decide whether MASH are Muslim Extremists or Jews pretending to be Muslims. The ironic thing is that some of the so-called "right-wingers" are eating up lies being spread by an avid Obama supporter. That proves one more time that Islamophobia and stupidity are not contained to one side of the political spectrum. Update: Targets of Bill Warner's defamation campaign also include Ted Belman of Israpundit, Boris Berezovsky of International Foundation for Civil Liberties, Dr. Andrew Bostom, Jerome Corsi of WorldNetDaily, Dave Gaubatz, Brigitte Gabriel of the American Congress For Truth, Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs, David Horowitz, Jamie Glazov, Ben Johnson, and Michael Finch, of FrontPage Magazine, Joe Kaufman of Americans Against Hate, Alexander Litvinenko, Alex Porter of Terror-Free Oil, Glen Reinsford of The Religion of Peace, Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch, Michael Travis, Geert Wilders of Dutch Freedom Party, Dr. Paul L.

 By Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu An Iranian plane crashed during a military show in Tehran while Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was delivering another threatening speech aimed at Israel and the United States. Seven people were killed, according to Iranian news reports. The government admitted that the plane crashed at a nearby village while performing maneuvers but initially did not release any details on casualties, if any, and what type of plane was involved. It was Iran's third plane crash in the past three months, and other mishaps, some of them involving the country's nuclear program, have raised suspicions that foreign intelligence agents were responsible. In his speech marking the anniversary of the Iran-Iraq war in 1980, the president threatened, "No power will ever dare to think of launching aggression against Iran. Today, Iran is experienced and powerful. Our armed forces are ready to confront the forces of darkness. If anybody wants to shoot a bullet at us from anywhere, we will cut off his hands."

 By Phyllis Chesler The mother who lured her two young daughters, Sarah and Amina, to their tragic deaths at the hand of their father, Yaser Said, now regrets what she did. Downplaying her own role, or rather, insisting that she is innocent, Patricia (“Tissy”) Owens calls the murder of her daughters an “honor killing” by an “evil man.” Despite years of paternal child abuse at home, “Tissy” now insists that she had no idea that Yaser was actually going to kill the girls whom he sexually and physically abused and whose “too Western” ways enraged him. Sarah and Amina refused to marry older, unknown men from Egypt in arranged marriages. They had American ways, academic ambitions, and Christian friends, including Christian boyfriends. Unthinkable! And, like Rifqa Bary, they knew they were in danger and so they ran away. Their mother sweet talked them back home. They were dead within hours. Their father has never been found. My guess? “Tissy” is angry that Yaser never sent for her—and that she has also lost her son, Islam, who has mainly been living with his paternal uncles or perhaps with his father. She is alone. She has no one. Perhaps she wants some attention—and the media is only to ready to provide “Tissy” with that for another fifteen minutes of infamous fame.

 Arab journalist Jihad el-Khazen has written a column asserting that the Palestine-Israeli dispute "only be resolved through war." War is the "only logical end" to the problem "unless a nuclear terrorist attack happens before that, and kills both the killers and the victims," according to el-Khazen. The writer further calls the Israeli government "Zio-Nazis" and claims that "the Jews can lay no legitimate claims whatsoever to the land of Palestine." Unfortunately, these inflammatory statements do not spring from the fevered imagination of an Arab blogger, or the anonymous ravings of an Arabic chatroom denizen. Jihad el-Khazen is an influential writer a Middle Eastern magazine listed as one of the world's 100 most influential Arabs. El Khazen's screed appeared in al-Hayat, a Saudi financed London based publication, which the New York Times describes as "regarded as by far and away the best and most intensely read Arab newspaper." In a 2003 essay on how Arab journalists "whitewash terrorism," Matthew Levitt singled out el-Khazen as "The prime example of this state of denial and intellectual atrophy… With people like this feeding the Mideastern denial frenzy, it's no wonder the Arab street has responded with such hostility to Western efforts to expose international terrorist activities, even after September 11."

'Terrorism can be justifiable': David Milliband's comments aired on Radio 4By Glen Owen Foreign Secretary David Miliband was accused last night of condoning terrorism after declaring that there were circumstances in which it was ‘justifiable’. His remarks – made in support of the ANC’s armed struggle against apartheid in South Africa – were swiftly condemned by the Conservatives, who accused him of giving succour to the Taliban in Afghanistan. The military wing of the ANC carried out a number of terrorist attacks during its campaign, including the Church Street bombing in Pretoria in 1983 in which 19 people were killed and more than 200 wounded. Many of the victims were civilians. Mr Miliband was speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Great Lives programme, in which he chose to pay tribute to the South African anti-apartheid activist Joe Slovo – a friend of Mr Miliband’s father, the academic Ralph Miliband. Mr Slovo, who shared Miliband senior’s belief in Marxist ideology, was one of the leaders of Umkhonto we Sizwe (Spear of the Nation), the armed military wing of the ANC. Asked by presenter Matthew Parris whether there were any circumstances in which terrorism was justified, Mr Miliband said: ‘Yes, there are circumstances in which it is justifiable, and yes, there are circumstances in which it is effective.’ Read more ...Source: Daily MailH/T: AtlasDavid Miliband Latest recipient of the Evil Dumbass Award
 On August 4, 2009 a post titled " Facts Are Stubborn Things" appeared on the White House blog. It contained the following paragraph: There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov. Every Fourth of July, we celebrate the Birth of the Nation. Every Fourth of August, we shall celebrate the Birth of the Internet Snitch Brigade. How long do you think it took before the Internet Snitch Brigade expanded its reporting from something fishy about health insurance reform to Anti-American Activities? Just five days! Move over McCarthy; here comes Bill Warner. In the post titled " ASSASSINATE BARACK OBAMA PLOTS INCREASE TO 10 RACIST RIGHT WING BLOGGERS FUEL WHITE SUPREMISTS (sic.) SECRET SERVICE SHUT EM DOWN by Bill Warner investigator" Bill Warner writes: Articles posted on ultra right wings blogs like "Muslims Against Sharia" by Khamim Massoud such as Obama spies monitoring Jews house-to-house and Freed to Kill More American Soldiers: Taliban Thrives, Thanks to Obama Policy and "Atlas Shrugs Website" by Pamela Geller who posts articles such as "Obama backs Iraqi Terrorists: Iraq investigates alleged US-insurgent talks" are hastening the demise of Preisdent Barack Obama. ... The US Secret Service so needs to investigate "Muslims Against Sharia by Khalim Massoud and Pamela Geller for her Anti-American racist activities on her website, which she operates out of her Manhattan NY apartment, and her incitement to hate by others and the possible murder of President Barack Obama. Yes, it only took five days to jump from snitching about dissent on health insurance reform to making up wild accusations about "incitement to hate by others and the possible murder of President Barack Obama." A quote attributed to Joseph Goebbels, a Propaganda Minister in Nazi Germany reads: If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. Bill Warner may not be a good P.I. (as he claims to be) or not a good bar fighter and martial artist (as he claims to be), but he certainly mastered the art of Nazi propaganda.

 A Detailed Explanation of the Video: On June 21st, I moderated a peaceful public debate between Mary Jo Sharp and Ehteshaam Gulam. After the debate, Nabeel, Mary Jo, and I went to the Dearborn Arab Festival, which had already become an open celebration of persecution against Christians. The festival organizers had declared that Christians could not distribute materials on the public sidewalks or street, and, when the matter was brought before the courts, the judge agreed that Christians could not freely distribute information during the festival. (Note: This decision has been defended in the media by claiming that the “no-distributing-materials” rule applied to everyone, and therefore wasn’t unfair to Christians. However, anyone who was at the festival knows that this is not true. People were walking up and down the sidewalks distributing pamphlets and brochures, right in front of security. The rule was only enforced against Christians, and therefore only the rights of Christians were violated.) Muslim security guards (one of whom had “Hezbollah” tattooed down his forearm) took things a step further and wouldn’t even allow Christians to talk about their beliefs openly. Security guards also repeatedly entrapped Christians in an attempt to get us to violate the court order.

Sayful Islam’s protest at British troops’ homecoming led to a mosque being firebombedBy Jerry Lawton AN ISLAMIC extremist who hurled abuse at Britain’s home-coming troops has been beaten up by fellow Muslims. Sayful Islam was set upon by moderates who say his controversial beliefs are making their lives hell. Their mosque was firebombed after he led the now notorious protest against the 2nd Battalion Royal Anglian Regiment’s homecoming parade in Luton in March. Islam – former leader of the local branch of extreme Islamic group Al-Muhajiroun – told how he “felt elated’’ at the sight of terrorists steering two passenger jets into the Twin Towers in New York on 9/11. But moderate Muslims claim the 29-year-old’s doctrine of hatred has led to them being shunned and want him driven out of town. Since the Islamic Education Centre was burned down they have been left with nowhere to pray. One eyewitness said: “It was a falling-out between people who used to be friends. “The group did not like the fact his actions have caused them problems. They are now being treated as outsiders and extremists. “Their place of worship has been firebombed. Luton has become a difficult place to be a Muslim thanks to Sayful.” Read more ...Source: Daily StarSayful Islam Latest recipient of the Evil Dumbass Award

Parvez Ahmed is the former Board Chairman of the unindicted co-conspirator Council on American-Islamic Relations. He is mystified that Americans might have a negative view of Islam, despite the many terrorist attacks perpetrated by Muslims around the world and justified by them with reference to Islamic texts and teachings. No, we will be waiting till doomsday for Parvez Ahmed to acknowledge that that might have anything to do with these negative views. For him, it is all about "Islamophobia," as manifested by the many Muslims on the Terrorist Watch List.
Has it ever occurred to you, Mr. Ahmed, that maybe there are so many Muslims on the Terrorist Watch List because, uh, so many Muslims are terrorists?
And in any case, the Terrorist Watch List is not a matter of "victimization." I myself am on it -- or rather, Robert Spencer is on it. Every time I fly, which is just about every week, I have to go through delays while they check to see if I am that Robert Spencer. It would be annoying if I missed a flight because of it, but I know it this delay is going to happen, and factor it into my schedule. Protest? Whine? Nope. I am not going to do that, and Parvez Ahmed shouldn't either. Any American who doesn't want to see another 9/11 on American soil should be willing to put up with some inconvenience to that end. Right, Mr. Ahmed? Source: Jihad WatchParvez Ahmed Latest recipient of the Evil Dumbass Award
 GAZA CITY - The Hamas regime acquired U.S.-origin air defense systems but was unable to use them in combat.
Hamas sources said the Islamic military has acquired the Stinger man-portable air defense system. The sources said the Stingers were acquired from smugglers in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula in 2008 and deployed in the 22-day war against Israel in January 2009.
"We were disappointed by them, and they were found to have been useless," a Hamas source said.
The source said Hamas smuggled four Stinger systems in 2008. The source said the Hamas military deployed the Stingers against Israel Air Force AH-64 Apache attack helicopters during strike missions in the northern Gaza Strip.
"Our gunners couldn't fire the weapon," the source recalled. "A notice came up on the display saying 'friendly aircraft.'"
Industry sources said Raytheon, producer of Stinger, installed identification friend/foe capabilities more than a decade ago. The sources said this would prevent Stinger from being fired against any aircraft used by the U.S. military.
Another Hamas source said gunners deployed Stinger along with heavy machine guns in attacks on Israeli helicopters during the war in the Gaza Strip. The source said one Stinger surface-to-air missile was launched, but the projectile veered off course and struck a Hamas gunner squad.
"The Stinger was drawn by the heat of our guns rather than the engines of the Israeli helicopters," the source said. "At that point, we stopped using this weapon."
The sources said Hamas has abandoned plans to acquire additional Stingers. Instead, the Islamic army has been ordering the Russian-origin SA-16, or Igla-1, surface-to-air missile system, with a range of five kilometers.

 By Rehmat Mehsud BANNU, PAKISTAN - Elders in Pakistan's lawless tribal region are negotiating with Taliban militants for the release of a Canadian woman threatened with beheading, according to a tribesman in the region. “Two tribal elders are in talks between the local government and the Taliban,” local tribesman Amer Jan said by telephone from the rugged area. The news comes a day after The Globe and Mail received a video of Beverly Giesbrecht, 52, pleading with authorities in Canada and Pakistan to do something to save her life, saying her captors have told her they will cut off her head if their demands aren't met by March 31. They have asked for $375,000 (U.S.) for her release. “The matter will be settled, but secretly,” Mr. Jan said. When contacted, one of the elders involved in negotiations asked that their identity not be revealed, and said they are not authorized to talk until a deal has been reached. But he did acknowledge that he was shuttling between the parties involved. Neither Pakistani authorities nor the Canadian embassy responded to requests for comment on the news of the negotiations. Ms. Giesbrecht, who is also known as Khadija Abdul Qahaar, has been a captive for four months.

 A man who is accused of waging a urine and faeces-spraying campaign at two supermarkets, a pub and a bookshop caused £700,000 damage, a court heard yesterday. Sahnoun Daifallah, 42, is alleged to have squirted a brown, foul-smelling substance from a spray container at four businesses in Gloucestershire on May 14 and 16 last year. The court heard the man from White City, Gloucester, visited the Air Balloon pub at around 12.45pm on May 14 where police were called after he asked a barmaid Susan Lawson-Bagent how much it would cost to rape her. When officers arrived Daifallah had gone but he had left a trail of stench behind him which the prosecution say was his calling card. Stephen Dent, prosecuting, told the jury: “He mixed up an evil potion of various biological ingredients including his own faeces and urine. “It was not until after he had left that staff started to notice a bad smell of excrement. “We say that this was his little calling card because he did not like the way he had been treated.” Read more ...Source: This Is GloucestershireH/T: AtlasSahnoun Daifallah Latest recipients of the Evil Dumbass Award
By Frank Gaffney, Jr. It is no secret that Team Obama is all about symbolism and messaging. So presumably it was no accident that one of the new president’s first gestures was to have a bust of Winston Churchill given to the United States by the British government removed from the Oval Office. Mr. Obama didn’t have it relocated to another prestigious location in the White House complex – say, the Cabinet Room or even the First Family’s residence. Neither did he choose to put it on display in the Smithsonian, where this likeness of the greatest honorary American could have been enjoyed and revered by the rest of us. No, President Obama had it sent back to the Brits, who would be entitled to feel offended as well as appalled. If indeed this explicit disassociation with one of the iconic heroes of the last century was meant to convey a symbolic message, the question occurs: precisely which message – and for whom was it intended?
