The Muslim Brotherhood seeks to seize power in Egypt with the use of drugs

Be sure to read Twenty Observations/Goals of the Muslim Brotherhood by Dr. A. Shorrosh at the bottom of this page.  But you don't have to have a Phd (Doctor of Philosphy) to make the same observations...many of us have seen these observances for numerous years but little has been done to put a stop to this hostile takeover of America... This decline in America will continue because the people have become so complacent that they don't know what is going on and to make it that much worse, they don't know that they don't know.  The only way to stop this madness is for a mass awakening by the majority of the American people and there's little evidence that that's about to happen anytime soon.  Its not a matter of voting people out of office at the next election cycle, it's more a matter of throwing them out of office before the next election; and that includes about 90% of all members of Congress... OK, I've said enough, and I'm sure you're not going to take my advice for if you had, we wouldn't be in this situation.  My only claim to fame is I can honestly say, "I told you so !" ~ Norman E. Hooben

PS: The subject line concerns the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt...this commentary was added several days after the original posting because in case you haven't noticed the Muslim Brotherhood has already seized power in Washington, D.C. its only a matter of time before they chop our heads off. (Oh, did that last line wake you up?)

'Rape Revenge': Muslim Brotherhood Rape Boy for Supporting Anti-Brotherhood Revolution
By Raymond Ibrahim

A young boy in Egypt, apparently no more than six years old, was recently raped by a Muslim Brotherhood member “angered” at the child for singing praises to Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, widely seen in Egypt as the hero of the revolution that saw the ousting of Muhammad Morsi and the Brotherhood in July 2013.
The details, including video interviews with the boy (whose face appears alternatively blotted out or hidden by his hands to protect his identity and dignity) and his father and mother, recently appeared on Egyptian journalist Wael Ibrashi’s television program (the same program that exposed Egypt’s “first sex-slave marriage” and how women were drinking camel urine in connection with Islamic teachings).

The story goes as follows: one day, when the boy was singing praises to Sisi near his home, a neighbor, Ahmed Abu Sa'id (the Brotherhood member), called him over and took him to a nearby shed, saying he needed help with something. Once inside, Sa'id locked the door, began tearing the boy’s pants off, and raped him, saying, “You’re always holding pictures of this Sisi and singing his praises. Come, I’ll humiliate and break you – and your Sisi.”
The boy started screaming aloud, until the man was finished and released him. According to his mother, “I heard him crying and left my work [in the field] and ran up to meet him. He was holding his pants up. I thought some kids had beaten him!” (She bursts into inarticulate tears when describing what actually did happen to him.)
When the mother tried to confront her son’s rapist, she was beaten by him and his crew.
According to the boy’s father, Ahmed Abu Sa‘id is a well-known Brotherhood member, living in the neighborhood, who often appeared with leading MB members back when Morsi was in power. Sa‘id often tried to enlist the support of the boy’s father but was refused.
Similarly, the raped boy’s mother said that Sa‘id’s wife also tried to buy her support, and once offered her a considerable amount of money – much more than she was earning working in the field – to go and support the Brotherhood “sit ins” in Rabia (where rape, torture, and mass murder were taking place).
In other words, constant refusals from the boy’s family to join and/or support the Brotherhood earned the Sa‘id family’s wrath – culminating in the boy’s rape and degradation, for daring to sing songs in praise of Sisi and the anti-Brotherhood revolution.
Of course, none of this should be surprising, as it conforms to earlier Brotherhood patterns. For example, back in December 2012, when Egyptians first rose en masse against Muhammad Morsi, Fox News reported that “Egypt’s embattled Muslim Brotherhood regime is paying gangs of thugs to rape women and beat men who gather in Tahrir Square to protest the power grab of President Mohamed Morsi, say activists.”
This is to say nothing of the fact that, under Brotherhood leadership, rape and sexual harassment in Egypt skyrocketed.
More broadly speaking, and beyond the issue of rape, during Egypt’s presidential elections in June 2012 (and as I reported here), Islamist parties in general and the Muslim Brotherhood in particular made perfectly clear that they would do anything – lie, cheat, steal, threaten, beat, and kill – to get what they want. A small sampling during elections follows:

• One man “beat his pregnant wife to death upon learning that she had not voted for the Muslim Brotherhood candidate Muhammad Morsi.” According to police reports, “despite her pleas,” the husband “battered and bruised” her after discovering she had voted for Ahmed Shafiq, the other candidate. She died later in the hospital “from injuries sustained.”
• A 52-year-old man and “supporter of Morsi” slapped his mother for voting for Shafiq. The man took his elderly mother to the voting booth, informing her that she must vote for Morsi; after she voted, he pressed her to confirm that she did in fact vote for him – only to be told that she did not. The man “lost his temper” and slapped her in front of the other voters and electoral supervisors.
• In accord with the Muslim Brotherhood’s own directives, whole segments of Coptic Christians were prevented from voting. According to Al Ahram, in Upper Egypt, where millions of Copts live, “the Muslim Brotherhood blockaded entire streets, prevented Copts from voting at gunpoint, and threatened Christian families not to let their children go out and vote.”
• A peasant farmer was “stabbed” by a “supporter of Morsi,” simply for putting up a picture of the secular Shafiq on his motorcycle – reminiscent of the recent rape of the boy singing praises to Sisi.

In or out of power, then, the Muslim Brotherhood continues exposing its true colors – to those not colorblind.

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy.

The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.
The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it.
No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.”

Twenty Observations/Goals of the Muslim Brotherhood by  Dr. A. Shorrosh

1. Terminate America’s freedom of speech by replacing it with hate crime bills state-wide and nation-wide.

2. Wage a war of words using black leaders like Louis Farrakhan, Rev. Jesse Jackson and other visible religious personalities to promote Islam as the original African-American’s religion while Christianity is for the whites! Strange enough, no one tells the African-Americans that it was the Arab Muslims who captured them and sold them as slaves, neither the fact that in Arabic the word for black and slave is the same, “Abed.”

3. Engage the American public in dialogues, discussions, debates in colleges, universities, public libraries, radio, TV, churches and mosques on the virtues of Islam. Proclaim how it is historically another religion like Judaism and Christianity with the same monotheistic faith.

4. Nominate Muslim sympathizers to political office for favorable legislation to Islam and support potential sympathizers by block voting.

5. Take control of as much of Hollywood, the press, TV, radio and the internet by buying the corporations or a controlling stock.

6. Yield to the fear of imminent shut-off of the lifeblood of America – the black gold. America’s economy depends on oil, (1000 products are derived from oil), so does its personal and industrial transportation and manufacturing -41% comes from the Middle East. (And Obama is making sure we are able to produce as little as possible)

7. Yell, “foul, out-of-context, personal interpretation, hate crime, Zionist, un- American, inaccurate interpretation of the Quran” anytime Islam is criticized or the Quran is analyzed in the public arena.

8.  Encourage Muslims to penetrate the White House, specifically with Islamists who can articulate a marvelous and peaceful picture of Islam. Acquire government positions, get membership in local school boards. Train Muslims as medical doctors to dominate the medical field, research and pharmaceutical companies. Take over the computer industry. Establish Middle Eastern restaurants throughout the U.S. to connect planners of Islamization in a discreet way. Ever notice how numerous Muslim doctors in America are, when their countries need them more desperately than America?

9. Accelerate Islamic demographic growth via:

– a. Massive immigration (100,000 annually since 1961, but more now)

– b. No birth control whatsoever – every baby of Muslim parents is automatically a Muslim and cannot choose another religion later.

– c. Muslim men will marry American women and convert them (10,000 annually). Then divorce them and remarry every five years – since one cannot have the Muslim legal permission to marry four at one time. This is a legal solution in America.

– d. Convert angry, alienated black inmates and turn them into militants (so far 2000 released inmates have joined Al Qaida world-wide). Only a few have been captured in Afghanistan and on American soil. So far – sleeping cells!

10. Reading, writing, arithmetic and research through the American educational system, mosques and student centers (now 1500) should be sprinkled with dislike of Jews, evangelical Christians and democracy. There are 300 exclusively Muslim schools with loyalty to the Quran, not the U.S. Constitution.

11. Provide very sizeable monetary Muslim grants to colleges and universities in America to establish “Centers for Islamic studies” with Muslim directors to promote Islam in higher education institutions.

12. Let the entire world know through propaganda, speeches, seminars, local and national media that terrorists have hijacked Islam, not the truth, which is Islam hijacked the terrorists. Furthermore in January of 2002, Saudi Arabia’s Embassy in Washington mailed 4500 packets of the Quran, videos, promoting Islam to America’s high schools–free. They would never allow us to reciprocate.

13. Appeal to the historically compassionate and sensitive Americans for sympathy and tolerance towards the Muslims in America who are portrayed as mainly immigrants from oppressed countries.

14. Nullify America’s sense of security by manipulating the intelligence community with misinformation. Periodically terrorize Americans of impending attacks on bridges, tunnels, water supplies, airports, apartment buildings and malls. (We have experienced this too often since 9-11.)

15. Form riots and demonstrations in the prison system demanding Islamic Sharia as the way of life, not American’s justice system.

16. Open numerous charities throughout the U.S. but use the funds to support Islamic terrorism with American dollars.

17. Raise interest in Islam on America’s college campuses (and now primary – high schools, too) by insisting that freshman take at least one course on Islam. Be sure that the writer is a bonafide American, Christian, scholarly and able to cover up the violence in the Quran and express the peaceful, spiritual and religious aspect only.

18. Unify the numerous Muslim lobbies in Washington, mosques, Islamic student centers, educational organizations, magazines and papers by internet and an annual convention to coordinate plans, propagate the faith and engender news in the media of their visibility.

19. Send intimidating messages and messengers to the outspoken individuals who are critical of Islam and seek to eliminate them by hook or crook.

20. Applaud Muslims as loyal citizens of the US by spotlighting their voting record as the highest percentage of all minority and ethic groups in America.

Tomorrow, April 25, 2014... Will it be another day of infamy?

The case is not only draconian in its presentation, it also hints of insanity by virtue of its logic…which is not logical in the least!   A right that shall not be infringed is what it is, nothing more nothing less.  The fact that the state of New Jersey even considered whether or not a person has a right to carry handguns outside the home for self-defense and then to prove a 'justifiable need' for doing so" borders on insanity by those doing the considering.  They are insinuating that one will never have to defend one’s self outside the home and that the self defense necessity will occur only in the home.  How crazy is that?  And to prove a justifiable need for  self defense is like saying, “I will know ahead of time when I’m about to be assaulted.”

The draconian part ( harsh, severe, strict, extreme, drastic, stringent, tough, cruel, oppressive, ruthless, relentless, punitive, authoritarian, despotic, tyrannical, and repressive) is the fact that it is being considered by the United States Supreme Court…take another look at those synonyms, a group of people went to war over less…and they won!  That was back in 1776 or there about.  ~  Norman E.

Whatever Supreme Court decides in gun carry case, infringements will continue
By David Codrea

Gun owners who monitor such things are on pins and needles after the Supreme Court apparently (temporarily?) kicked the can down the road in Drake v. Jerejian, a New Jersey case considering "Whether the Second Amendment secures a right to carry handguns outside the home for self-defense; and ... whether state officials violate the Second Amendment by requiring that individuals wishing to exercise their right to carry a handgun for self-defense first prove a 'justifiable need' for doing so."

"The U.S. Supreme Court has pushed its consideration of a case challenging New Jersey's mandate ... to April 25," The Washington Times reported, further explaining plaintiff "Drake applied for a handgun permit from New Jersey in 2010 but was rejected ..."

The Counsel of record for the case is Alan Gura, of Hellerand McDonald fame.

Gura has argued that four federal district courts, along with several state supreme courts, have ruled that the Second Amendment extends the right to carry handguns to outside of the home for self-defense, while several other federal courts have disagreed," the National Constitution Center explained. Such conflicts among the lower courts would seem to make the case a natural for SCOTUS consideration, and seasoned pro-RKBA court watchers are as cautiously hopeful as they can be.

"[T]he case has been relisted for next Friday," New Jersey gun law expert, attorney and author Evan Nappen told his Facebook followers about the delay. "This is a potentially positive sign. It got past round one."

"Conferences are entirely private, so we can't know what went on," author and attorney David T. Hardy weighed in on his Arms and the Law blog. "I can think of several possibilities. Most obviously, perhaps some Justices wanted longer to think it over. A good sign. Or perhaps they wanted to see what would happen in the Ninth Circuit -- will California be allowed to intervene, which might mean a petition for cert.? There really is no way to say, although either of these possibilities mean the Court is giving it serious consideration."

Will the court have enough judges lined up to grant certiorari?

"Each year the Justices and their law clerks review anywhere between 8 to 10 thousand petitions that come to Court – each one of them hoping that the Court will agree to hear their case at oral argument," C-SPAN advises in an introduction to a video explaining the process. "Of these thousands, only 80-100 get heard during a term."

And if they do hear the case, how will they decide?

Can we count on "conservative" Chief Justice John Roberts, who inexplicably found the approval of the Framers in Obamacare?

Will "conservative" Justice Antonin Scalia once again give aid and comfort to "progressive" gun-grabbers, as he did in Heller? What prompted him to volunteer the unnecessary (not to mention subversive) opinion "We think that limitation is fairly supported by the historical tradition of prohibiting the carrying of 'dangerous and unusual weapons.'"?

Will "conservative" Justice Clarence Thomas let all gun owners down, the way he did Thomas Lamar Bean, when he decided it was totally OK for the fedgov to create a prohibited person out of a good citizen who inadvertently had some ammunition in his car when he visited Mexico after attending a gun show?

While different legal minds and "informed" court-watchers are nattering on about judicial review, and whether intermediate or strict scrutiny should apply (and perhaps even contesting how many angels can dance on the head of a pin), what the High Court will not address, should they elect to hear the case, are the clear words those of us, without robes and law degrees and political connections with attendant obligations, understand instinctively:

"... shall not be infringed."

"[I]f they accept either Seegars or Parker, I believe the court will not dare say there is no individual rkba," I noted back in 2005. "But if they find there is one, it will be so heavily burdened with 'reasonable restrictions' as to ensure the status quo. They'll never admit the truth unless someone, that would be us, has enough power to compel them."

They won't because there's no "or else" attached to a demand.

Perhaps the Court will hear Drake. Perhaps it will even decide in favor of "shall issue" permits, and the gun groups can all tell us what a great victory it is for "gun rights," and inarguably, it will be a definite incremental advance in the direction of more people going about while armed.

Still, it's hard to square government permissions to bear arms with the express proscription that they really have no legitimate authority, legal, moral or otherwise, to have any say in the matter, that is, until such time as someone abuses the right and victimizes another by threat or action. And no matter what the Black Robes say, you can bet it will be a far cry from an admission that no permits should be needed because no one in government has the delegated power to require them, and those who say they do are frauds and usurpers.

Somehow, a quote from Thomas Pynchon's "Gravity's Rainbow" comes to mind:

"If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers."

The Hypocrisy Of ObamaCare ...plus, Who crafted the ObamaCare deception?

The message says one thing, the law says another:

The core message: “Reform requires that Members of Congress get their healthcare coverage from the same plans as millions of Americans.”

However, the Affordable Care Act actually locks lawmakers and their staffers out of the federal government’s group health plan and instead puts them into state insurance exchanges.

Chavez-linked group crafted 'keep your health plan'
Research developed by imaging guru for Venezuelan dictator
by Aaron Klein
A little-known group called the Herndon Alliance has been the driving force in branding Obamacare to the public.
It was this group that advised President Obama to say Americans can maintain their choice of doctors and insurers under his health-care plan, WND has learned.
The Herndon Alliance is openly partnered with a number of radical groups, including MoveOn, the National Council of La Raza and a slew of George Soros-funded activist organizations.
It is also partnered with a “direct action” group dedicated to the teachings of radical Saul Alinsky.
Behind Obamacare since beginning
The Herndon Alliance has been behind the marketing campaign for Obamacare since the inception of the legislation.
Herndon is “the most influential group in the health arena that the public has never heard of,” reported Politico in 2009.
Politico reported that when Obama repeatedly announced Americans can maintain their “choice” of doctors and insurance plans, “he is using a Herndon strategy for wringing fear out of a system overhaul.”
Controversial pollster, contraceptives
The research component of the Herndon Alliance is provided by Celinda Lake, who teamed up with a marketing research firm, American Environics. AE uses social-values surveys to gauge public opinion.
Lake was commissioned recently by Enroll America to determine how best to market the Obamacare enrolment campaign to the public.
Lake’s survey found that even with tax credits and federal subsidies, those without insurance still considered the cost of Obamacare too heavy.
She recommended Enroll America not cite any specific dollar amounts when trying to convince the uninsured to sign up.
Lake’s firm, together with Herndon, was one of the driving forces behind the progressive strategy to use contraception as an election issue in 2012.
According to Lake’s website, her company conducted polling on the contraception issue in conjunction with an organization called the Communications Consortium Media Center, or CCMC, and the Herndon Alliance.
Lake’s research on voters attitudes on contraception found Roman Catholic voters tend to mirror voters overall when it comes to reproductive health-care services that the Affordable Care Act will cover.
Lake’s website said: “Not only are Catholics favorable to including birth control or contraception in insurance coverage, these inclusions also make them more favorable toward the Affordable Care Act.”
Chavez guru
Herndon’s decision-making for how to market Obamacare was based significantly on the theoretical work of American Environics, which was founded in 2004 by a team of American strategists and Canadian researchers.
AE describes itself as a consulting firm that uses social-values surveys, cognitive linguistics and political psychology to help foundations and nonprofits develop breakthrough social change initiatives.

Deception: Here's who crafted Obamacare's magic lies
Radicals' poll-tested language soothed fears of nation
by Klein About
Editor’s note: This is the second WND report investigating the Herndon Alliance, the group behind the marketing of Obamacare. The first article, which exposed Herndon’s ties to many radical groups, can be read here.
A group that has been the driving force in branding Obamacare has recommended a series of phrases, some deceptive, that the White House and Democrats have used to sell the health-care law to the public, WND has found.
The little-known Herndon Alliance has been behind the marketing of Obamacare since the inception of the legislation.
It was the group that crafted President Obama’s false claim that Americans can maintain their “choice” of doctors and insurance plans.
Along with advising the Obama administration, Herndon has been providing strategy to Enroll America, the main organization pushing for the uninsured to sign up for Obamacare. Enroll America’s executive director, Ron Pollack, was a founding member of Herndon.
The Herndon Alliance is “the most influential group in the health arena that the public has never heard of,” reported Politico in 2009.
Politico reported that when Obama repeatedly announced Americans can maintain their “choice” of doctors and insurance plans, he was “using a Herndon strategy for wringing fear out of a system overhaul.”
The Herndon Alliance, based in Seattle, describes itself as “a nationwide non-partisan coalition of more than 200 minority, faith, labor, advocacy, business, and healthcare provider organizations.”
As WND reported in February 2012, the group received a grant from the lobbying arm of the progressive Media Matters for America to help the White House to craft and market Obamacare.
Using polling data about what Americans like and don’t like about Obamacare, Herndon concocted a list of words and statements to use in selling the legislation to the country.
Herndon recommended avoiding the following terminology: “Universal health care,” “Canadian Style Health care,” “Medicare for All,” “Competition,” “Government health care for all,” “Regulations,” “Required,” “Public or Government health care,” and “Basic health care.”
Key phrases to use in the messaging of Obamacare include “Quality affordable health care,” “American solutions,” “A choice of private and public plans,” “Choice and control,” “Giving security and peace of mind,” “Sliding scale, pay what you can afford,” “Government as a watchdog, ensure a fair playing field,” “Affordable health plans” and “Smart investments.”
Many of these phrases were incorporated in the marketing material released by the White House and groups like Enroll America.
Herndon specifically labels women, particularly those over the age of 65, “a key persuadable audience.”
“We need to show them how the new law will benefit them. Remember that when messaging to women, start with our core message to build trust,” continues Herndon.
The core message: “Reform requires that Members of Congress get their healthcare coverage from the same plans as millions of Americans.”
However, the Affordable Care Act actually locks lawmakers and their staffers out of the federal government’s group health plan and instead puts them into state insurance exchanges.
Herndon recognized the public was finding it difficult to accept Obamacare will bring health-care costs down.
So to avoid a conversation on costs, Herndon suggested what it called a “long-term effort to ‘move’ the public along by focusing the conversation on specific benefits of the law that will most affect them.”
On Medicare, Herndon concocted two key selling points: “The law protects Medicare and provides preventive care with no co-pay.”
