FEDERAL JUDGE FINDS IRAN
GUILTY OF 9/11 ATTACKS
Dec.
16,
2011: A federal judge in Manhattan ruled
yesterday that Iran "shared responsibility" for the 9/11
attacks by providing "material support" - including
military training, travel facilities, money, planning,
logistics, and
safe haven after the attacks. This historic ruling has not yet begun to make
the waves that will come.... Here's the
news
story from
the
Daily Caller. More links to background stories are here.
The first to comment (other that CNN's
resident idiot, Peter Bergen) were the Iranian
regime and Russia
Today (RT) television, both of whom dismissed the
claims as a U.S. "plot."
Dec. 5, 2011: A Dubious Death in Dubai. The U.S.

about Fast and Furious. But read the four reasons why the
evidence convinced me it was real.This is my debut article

Oct. 12, 2011: Woefully
Unprepared
for an EMP attack. I report this week on a
series of table-top exercises to simulate a major
geomagnetic solar event or nuclear EMP attack and our
ability to respond to the ensuing shut down of the national
power grid.... The answers are in: “Keep some money in the
sock draw,” said the head of Maryland’s Emergency Management
Agency...
Here is the real tragedy: the answers to our
vulnerability to EMP are cheap, easy, and quick to
implement – but folks like NDU's Dr. Alenka Brown
and some in the power industry don’t want Congress to
act.
You don’t hear me often talking about specific
legislation, but here is an exception: Please call
your
members of Congress to get them behind H.R.
668, the SHIELD Act.

Oct. 4, 2011:An
EMP
Attack on America? The threat of an EMP
attack on America – or a major geomagnetic event such as a
solar flare – would have a devastating impact on our
country. Some analysts have invented a new acronym to
describe it: TEOTWAWKI – The End of the World As We Know
It. In today’s Frontpage magazine, I describe Iran’s
work to develop an EMP weapon, and a series of table-top
wargaming exercises being held this week in Washington, DC,
Maryland, and Florida.e

Sept. 27, 2011: Grover
Norquist's
New Muslim Protegé. What’s wrong with
Muslims running for public office or assuming prominent

long as they are clear about the primacy of the U.S.
Constitution over Koranic (or Sharia) law. Where does Imad Afif “David”
Ramadan stand on this crucial question? The answer is –
well, unclear.

Sept 16, 2011: The

Escalate Battle Against Iranian Kurds. Iran
called on NATO member Turkey on Tuesday to help battle
dissident Kurds in the rugged mountains along the northern
border between Iran and Iraq. You would think this would
upset Turkey's NATO allies - but you'd be wrong.
July 19, 2011:Iran
Attacks Kurdish Bases in Iraq.
Iran’s invasion of Iraq over the weekend has
gotten very little media coverage, but it is important –
and curious. Curious because the US, Iraq, and the KRG
have remained almost silent. Does that mean they are
complicit? Or just impotent? As my story reports, Iran
has been putting intense pressure on the KRG to crack
down on the PJAK camps along the border for some
time. Both the KRG and the Iraqi Prime Minister left
Iraq just hours before the invasion began....

FROM NORTHERN IRAQ:
March 2, 2011: Iraqi Christians to Congress: Please
Help! The near extermination of
Iraqi Christians has been an unintended consequence of
the U.S.-led liberation of Iraq in 2003. There is still
time - but not much - to make it right. The creation of
an autonomous province in the Nineveh Plain, free of
Kurdish domination, is the last best hope for preventing
the mass exodus of the remaining Christians from Iraq,

Washington Times.

Jan. 11, 2011: Biden Faces Challenge in Pakistan (Ken
Timmerman, Newsmax.com):
....The radicalization of Pakistan became clear on Jan. 4,
when a bodyguard protecting Punjab state Gov. Salman Taseer
opened fire on his boss, shooting him 20 times in the back
as other members of the security detail looked on.
Since the murder, the bodyguard has become something of a
national hero, telling the press that he assassinated Taseer
because he had campaigned against Pakistan’s anti-blasphemy
law, which condemns to death anyone who leaves Islam to
adopt another religion.
“The anti-blasphemy law is the main cause of violence
against Christians,” says Dr. Nazir Bhatti, a Pakistani
Christian activist in the United States.

In a tragic irony, Punjab's Christian population, which
today labors under daily persecution, helped sway the
predominantly Sikh state to join Pakistan when British India
declared independence, thinking they would enjoy greater
freedom under Muslim rule, says Pakistani activist Nazir Bhatti. Mr. Bhatti

Jan. 7, 2011: Another day of fear and persecution
- Christmas Day is not celebrated until Jan. 7 in Egypt by

Christians, including children, will probably remain
imprisoned Jan. 7, nearly two months after they were
arrested when 2,000 members of the state security forces
attacked their church building. Several people were killed
during that attack in which police chanted Islamic war cries
and tried to tear down the three-story building that was
under reconstruction. The object of the attack was to
prevent the building from being used for Christmas services.
