Iranian President Ahmadinejad:

“The West Should Pick Up the Zionist Regime ‘By the Arms and Legs’ and Remove It from the Region; U.N. Resolutions Are Illegitimate; America & England are Enemies of the Iranian Nation”

From the article:

The following are excerpts from an address delivered by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, which aired on Jaam-e Jam 1 TV on October 20, 2006. In the address, Ahmadinejad stated that the U.S. was extorting the entire world using the Holocaust as a pretext and that the West was being held hostage by “the Zionists” by means of the Holocaust, and instructed it to pick up “the Zionist regime by the arms and legs, and remove it” from the Middle East. He further claimed that the U.N. Security Council and its resolutions were illegitimate and that “the whole world knows that America and England are the enemies of the Iranian nation.”

Wild Thing’s comment…….Enough is enough! After all the bad press and slanderous news, untrue news the U.S. Department of Defense is standing tall and has created a website called For The Record………………………..

October 27, 2006: The U.S. Department of Defense is now taking its requests for corrections public through a website known as For the Record. Here, the Department of Defense is openly calling for corrections from major media outlets, and even noting when they refuse to publish letters to the editor.

The Defense Department has been dealing with a number of misleading stories. From Newsweek’s misreporting of a Koran-flushing incident (caused by a detainee, not guards as reported by Newsweek), to claims of prisoner mistreatment (often without context, including one instance where a detainee spat on an interrogator), to a massive rewriting of an embedded reporter’s report on the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment’s efforts in Tal Afar, by editors of Time magazine, to the revelations about NSA efforts, the DOD has been barraged by numerous stories, many of which were followed by angry editorials.

The DOD is pushing back, not only putting out requests to correct the record (with the refusals published as well), but also citing stories of heroes that the media has failed to cover – usually two or three a week. Among these are accounts of those who have been awarded medals for battlefield bravery, like Navy Cross recipients Robert J. Mitchell Jr. and Bradley A. Kasal, as well as Silver Star recipients Juan M. Rubio, Sarun Sar, Jeremy Church, and Leigh Ann Hester. The DOD has also followed CENTCOM’s lead in running pieces on what terrorists actually say – another item largely ignored by the mainstream media.

The Department of Defense is acting in an effort to avoid a repeat of the aftermath of the 1968 Tet Offensive. On the battlefield, American and South Vietnamese forces won a victory – effectively destroying the Viet Cong and crippling North Vietnamese forces in South Vietnam. However, media misreporting, including Walter Cronkite’s famous mischaracterization of the war as a “stalemate”, took away the victory that had been won on the battlefield. Such a scenario is less likely now, largely due to the presence of the internet (including blogs), talk radio, and other news networks – and the Department of Defense is taking advantage of alternative ways to get around the mainstream media.

I am so excited about this, and so proud of our military for doing this……

Once a sleepy suburban university, UCI has joined the ranks of Columbia University and UC Berkeley as a hotbed of anti-Zionism. The situation has become so tense that the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights — in reaction to a complaint filed by the conservative Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) — is investigating allegations of anti-Jewish harassment at UCI and administration indifference.
The latest attack happened the weekend of October 8, a student housing building was defaced with swastikas.
So what happened, how was this taken care of?
The Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs Manuel Gomez held a meeting. And this is what he said:

“Some of the Jewish students at the meeting revealed that they and others had been subject to verbal and physical intimidation at the hands of MSU members, and that they had previously reported these claims to campus security. In light of this, some students asked that Drake place restrictions on where MSU events are held, saying that if their events were held in classrooms as opposed to public spaces, their effect would not be as broad. However, Chancellor Drake told Jewish students at the meeting that he cannot restrict any club, that it would be “violation of law to prohibit certain speech.” Gomez emphasized that though hate speech may be present, he would not seek to curtail it, as “one person’s hate speech is another person’s education.”

“Every time we fought in the name of Allah, we always won… we are not afraid of THEM”.

More than a dozen Jewish student leaders met with Chancellor Michael Drake and Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs Manuel Gomez on Wednesday, October 18 to discuss the recent anti-Semitic vandalism here amidst a broader discussion about how Jewish students feel they are treated. This meeting marked the first time that the chancellor met with Jewish students about their concerns over the atmosphere on campus since his installation 15 months ago.
The students present expressed their displeasure regarding the current tense situation on campus between Muslim and Jewish students and the recent vandalism.

“I hate that things like this happen,” Drake responded, acknowledging that there has been speech on campus promoted by the Muslim Student Union (MSU) that is largely hateful. Drake called hate-speech “vile,” “awful,” and “stupid,” and said it is “weak” human beings who engage in such speech. The chancellor also asserted that hateful speech does absolutely nothing to promote understanding and tolerance.

Many Jewish students at the meeting blamed the Muslim Student Union for creating an environment in which hate speech can prosper, which they felt had a direct connection to the vandalism.

Gomez emphasized that though hate speech may be present, he would not seek to curtail it, as “one person’s hate speech is another person’s education.”

Drake stated that it is not in the power of the University of California to prohibit speech on campus in any fashion because it would be against the constitutional rights of individuals.
Students at the meeting pointed to the fact that there have been threats, verbal and physical, and that the university should do more in order to ensure the safety of Jewish students. I invited Drake to come to AFI events and other Jewish events, and he said that he would plan to attend a Shabbat dinner, and speak at an AFI event.
Jewish leaders on campus left the meeting with mixed feelings. On one hand, it is clear to the Jewish community that the administration is attempting to be supportive and helpful. On the other hand, many students worry that, as happened here, UCI personnel will take action only after students are directly and obviously targeted, as opposed to confronting the growing problem before such results occur.
And who is this Amir Abdel Malik Ali??
Rabidly anti-Israel, anti-Semitic public speaker whose presentations consist of fiirebrand rhetoric and openly hostile speech
Lectures on college campuses and at Muslim Student Association events
He is openly hostile to Jews, he is also a strong supporter of an Islamic revolution in the United States. He is clear about the strategy for implementing it.

“From an Islamic movement we graduate to an Islamic revolution, then to an Islamic state. . . . We must implement Islam as a totality” in which “Allah controls every place — the home, the classroom, the science lab, the halls of Congress.”

Malik-Ali views all non-Muslim entities, anywhere in the world, as barriers preventing the spread of Islam. He supports the violent uprising of Muslims as a necessary action. In July 1999, Malik-Ali was an organizer and speaker at an event in San Francisco that praised Hamas and its actions.
He is also part of the Al-Masjid movement which is dedicated to creating an Islamic movement in the U.S.

Wild Thing’s comment………..
Sure that makes sense, wait till someone is killed then do something about it. True there is freedom of speech, but sheesh I can’t be in a movie theater and yell fire, I can’t say out loud so others would hear me….I have a nice little bomb in my purse when boarding an airplane. There is a line that should not be crossed when it comes to our freedoms, being responsible for one thing, and certainly not promoting hate and violence.
But then these kinds of speeches come from the terrorists (the moderate Muslims aka the terrorists wanna be’s) so apparently it is OK to do such things.
And they can all laugh at us as they USE our laws against us.
God Help us!!
I say it is NOT ok. It is dangerous!

70-year-old ex-SAS soldier dares to tackle four muggers and wins
The Daily Mail
A 70-year-old former British soldier who fought guerillas in Aden and Triad gangs in Hong Kong showed four muggers how it doesn’t pay to mess with the SAS.
Douglas O’Dell is past retirement age but the moves he learned as a volunteer in Britain’s toughest regiment half-a-century ago stood him in good stead when he was ambushed near his home in Bielefeld, Germany, by four local toughs.
The former Provost Sergeant put paid to the danger on the street like he once took out bandits in hotspots across the globe.
THWACK! The first mistake came when one of the teenagers grabbed him around the throat and said in German:

“Give my your money, grandad, if you don’t want to get hurt.”

“Bad move,” said Douglas. “The only part he got right was grandad. If you’re gonna grab someone from behind take their arms and pin them to their waist.

“This joker, I was able to grab his elbow, crouch down and throw him over my shoulder. He landed on his back on a fence and squealed like a stuck pig.”

CRASH! As one went down another moved in and Douglas thought he saw him reaching for a knife. The Birmingham-born divorcee, who has a daughter and three grandchildren, said:

“I had the measure of him but I slipped on some wet leaves as he came for me and bashed my face badly on the concrete.

“I saw his boot coming towards my face and I thought: ‘No you don’t, sunshine.’ I grabbed his leg and twisted it until he too was screaming out in agony.

“Then I got to my feet and kicked him in the chest.”

With two down the two remaining would-be muggers had enough. One peeled his groaning pal from the fence, the other picked up his crippled accomplice from the pavement.

“The last I saw of them they were limping down the pavement like a WW1 trench raiding party who got clobbered,” said Douglas.

Douglas, who served nearly nine years with the Royal Warwickshire Regiment before leaving the army in the late 1950s, learned his combat moves when he was accepted for SAS training.
He completed the course and was to join the famous regiment when he contracted malaria and had to leave the army.

“I was upset at the time but I made the best of it. It’s funny, but I never thought I would need to know that stuff again, the unarmed combat, but it came back just when I needed it.”

The youths ambushed him just 60 feet from the flat he lives in in the British Army garrison town he has called home since 1961.
He went on:

“The police only became involved because I went to the hospital with my face. Otherwise I wouldn’t have bothered. They didn’t get anything – except a bloody good hiding.

“They were German, I think east Germans, from their accent. There have been a lot of break-ins in my road.

“I just didn’t think this would happen to me. I was only returning from a pal’s place after drinking a few beers.”

Douglas, who spent three years as a policeman in Birmingham before returning to Germany to live after his marriage ended, shares his flat with a mongrel dog called Schnuffi.
He still works, as a delivery driver, “because my pension isn’t very good.”
Police in Bielefeld are still looking for his attackers.

But a spokesman said: “He had everything under control. These guys picked the wrong guy on the wrong night.”

The Special Air Service (SAS) is the principal special forces organisation of the British Army. A small and secretive institution, it attracts a disproportionate amount of media coverage. The SAS was formed in 1941 to conduct raids behind German lines in North Africa, and today serves as a model for similar units fielded by other countries.
The SAS forms part of the United Kingdom Special Forces, alongside the Special Boat Service (SBS), Special Reconnaissance Regiment (SRR), and Special Forces Support Group (SFSG).

I loved this story, things like this make my heart smile.
It made me think of this:

Tommy
I went into a public-‘ouse to get a pint o’beer,
The publican ‘e up an’ sez, “We serve no red-coats here.”
The girls be’ind the bar they laughed an’ giggled fit to die,
I outs into the street again an’ to myself sez I:
O it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, go away”;
But it’s “Thank you, Mister Atkins,” when the band begins to play,
The band begins to play, my boys, the band begins to play,
O it’s “Thank you, Mr. Atkins,” when the band begins to play.
I went into a theatre as sober as could be,
They gave a drunk civilian room, but ‘adn’t none for me;
They sent me to the gallery or round the music-‘alls,
But when it comes to fightin’, Lord! they’ll shove me in the stalls!
For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, wait outside”;
But it’s “Special train for Atkins” when the trooper’s on the tide,
The troopship’s on the tide, my boys, the troopship’s on the tide,
O it’s “Special train for Atkins” when the trooper’s on the tide.
Yes, makin’ mock o’ uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Is cheaper than them uniforms, an’ they’re starvation cheap;
An’ hustlin’ drunken soldiers when they’re goin’ large a bit
Is five times better business than paradin’ in full kit.
Then it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy how’s yer soul?”
But it’s “Thin red line of ‘eroes” when the drums begin to roll,
The drums begin to roll, my boys, the drums begin to roll,
O it’s “Thin red line of ‘eroes” when the drums begin to roll.
We aren’t no thin red ‘eroes, nor we aren’t no blackguards too,
But single men in barricks, most remarkable like you;
An’ if sometimes our conduck isn’t all your fancy paints:
Why, single men in barricks don’t grow into plaster saints;
While it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Tommy, fall be’ind,”
But it’s “Please to walk in front, sir,” when there’s trouble in the wind,
There’s trouble in the wind, my boys, there’s trouble in the wind,
O it’s “Please to walk in front, sir,” when there’s trouble in the wind.
You talk o’ better food for us, an’ schools, an’ fires an’ all:
We’ll wait for extry rations if you treat us rational.
Don’t mess about the cook-room slops, but prove it to our face
The Widow’s Uniform is not the soldier-man’s disgrace.
For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Chuck him out, the brute!”
But it’s “Saviour of ‘is country,” when the guns begin to shoot;
An’ it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ anything you please;
But Tommy ain’t a bloomin’ fool – you bet that Tommy sees!

BAGHDAD, Iraq – U.S. and Iraqi forces on Wednesday raided Sadr City, the stronghold of the feared Shiite militia led by radical anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, but Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki disavowed the operation, saying he had not been consulted and insisting “that it will not be repeated.”
The defiant al-Maliki also slammed the top U.S. military and diplomatic representatives in Iraq for saying Iraq needed to set a timetable to curb violence ravaging the country.

“I affirm that this government represents the will of the people and no one has the right to impose a timetable on it,” al-Maliki said at a news conference.

The U.S. military said Iraqi army special forces, backed up by U.S. advisers, carried out a raid to capture a “top illegal armed group commander directing widespread death squad activity throughout eastern Baghdad,” the military said in a statement.
Al-Maliki, who is commander in chief of Iraq’s army, heatedly denied he knew anything about the raid:

“We will ask for clarification about what has happened in Sadr City. We will review this issue with the multinational forces so that it will not be repeated…

And this is the response from President Bush…………
Bush warns Iraqis that American patience has limits
WASHINGTON (Reuters) –
President George W. Bush said on Wednesday American patience over Iraq had its limits but pledged not to put unbearable pressure on the country’s leaders, after a protest by Iraq’s prime minister.
“We’re pressing Iraq’s leaders to take bold measures to save their country. We’re making it clear that American patience is not unlimited,” Bush told a White House news conference.
Even so, he added, “We will not put more pressure on the Iraqi government than it can bear.”
Bush said the United States remained committed to Iraq “until the job is done,” but would adjust tactics to confront a changing enemy.
He voiced qualified confidence in Maliki. “We’re with him as long as he continues to make tough decisions,” Bush said.

Wild Thing’s comment…….
The current PM is an appeaser to Muqtada al-Sadr. They probably did not notify Malki for fear his people would warn the militia of the impending attack and whomever was the target for the raid would dissappear.
SCREW YOU, Maliki. Everybody KNOWS the trouble in Baghdad stems from that festering hellhole called Sadr City. You’d better be glad we’re not just flat out LEVELING it.
Stop sticking up for your Iranian buddies and LEAD this nation for which our troops have spilled their blood.
And don’t give us that “will of the people” crap. Now get out of the way and let the U.S. and Iraqi forces do what has to be done to make this a stable country.
Oh, and SCREW IRAN AND MUQTADA AL SADR.

Nancy Pelosi & Bill Clinton to Star in San Francisco 60s Flashback Fundraiser Week Before Election
SFGate.com
Former President Bill Clinton, aiming to provide the critical boost to help the Democratic Party take back the House of Representatives, will headline a $1 million star-studded fundraiser in San Francisco just days before the election to raise cash for congressional races.
Clinton, among the party’s top fund raisers, is scheduled to appear Nov. 1 at the Warfield Theater — where he will be joined by Democratic Party backers and stars, including singer-songwriters Jackson Browne and Graham Nash for the event.
Rep. Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco, who is poised to become the first woman Speaker of the House if her party wins a House majority on Nov. 7, also is scheduled to appear. Pelosi and Rep. Rahm Emanuel of Illinois, a former top aide in the Clinton White House who now heads the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, which distributes money and advice to Democratic House candidates, are listed as the hosts for the event.

“It is important we be part of this conversation in California … and we’re trying to give the Democratic Party the resources they need to win,” Steyer said. “This is a big chance for us. … People (who) disagree with what’s been going on in the country, starting with the Iraq war. It’s an emotional reaction and we really want our voice listened to.”

Clinton, said strategist Chris Lehane, is “the star of stars, who’s coming out to the epicenter of blue America to help raise needed resources to make sure Democrats can take back the house and change the direction of the country.”

I can see it now, the room filled with old hippies, with whatever grey cells are left in their brains from all the drugs they did in the 60’s. I wonder if Peter, Paul and Mary will be there too. hahaha
Demcorats can’t move forward if their life depended on it. Just like their ideas, they have none.

Beccy Cole is from Australia and in this video she is singing Beccy Cole who is singing “Poster Girl”.
She went to Iraq to entertain the troops and some of her fans did not like it so she wrote this song for them.

Wild Thing’s comment…….
Everone please listen to her song. You don’t have to be an Aussie to appreciate the patriotism
God bless the Diggers. And God bless Australia. And God bless Beccy.
The Aussies are great and it was also wonderful to get to meet a few of them in Saigon.
