Day 31 Iranian Revolution: "hundreds of unidentified dead bodies are piling up in Tehran’s morgues"
Repeatedly on twitter: Today, tomorrow and even on Friday the answer is democracy and not theocracy
"Iran can set off a bomb within six months" Stern magazine
A nuke in the hands of brutal savages. Think about that. Just look at what they do to their own people. Imagine the hell they will rain down on free men.
German intelligence officials told Stern believe Iran has "mastered" every stage of uranium enrichment and that they have activated enough centrifuges to produce sufficient quantities of weapons-grade uranium for at least one atomic bomb.
Twitter: Norooz: Bodies of hundreds of martyrs from protests in the past month are kept in a morgue in south-west of Tehran.
While our dear leader preaches to us about our moral authority and fundamental values and hope and change, injecting us with his daily dose of morphine, the bodies in Iran pile up. Rantburg has this here:
The on-line Farsi-language newspaper, Nooroz, reports that hundreds of unidentified dead bodies are being held in Tehran’s morgues. One of the few official organs providing information on the detainees is the office of unidentified dead persons, which has summoned some families to various morgues around the city to determine whether their loved ones are among the dead. Nooroz newspaper reports that those families, who find their sons or daughters among the countless corpses, are threatened and pressured into signing statements attesting that their family members died in car crashes or as a result of other ordinary, run of the mill accidents. Unless the families sign these statements, the cherished bodies of their loved ones are withheld from them.
One person who reportedly visited the morgue in south-west Tehran [which in the past had been used only for the storage of fruits and dairy products]reports to Nooroz that she was presented with an album containing hundreds of pictures of the dead and was told to try and find her child among these images. This woman reports that, as she was leaving the morgue, she saw hundreds of dead bodies piled on top of one another.
Yesterday we also received news from one of our readers that the mother of Sohrab Arabi, the ninteen year old student whose mysterious death in connection with the Tehran protests recently made international headlines, was also asked to identify her son from amongst some sixty pictures of nameless corpses.Tajzadeh’s wife: This flow of returning bodies of the youth has made me more worried.

Lt. Colonel Allen West’s Column: “The Breaking Point; Summer of Discontent”
Lt Colonel Allen West’s monthly column sums it all up. It’s a jagged little pill.
Washingtoons
15 July 2009
Lieutenant Colonel Allen B West (US Army, Retired)
“The Breaking Point; Summer of Discontent”
Greetings fellow South Florida riders, South Floridians, and Americans, here we are for another monthly installment of our Wheels on the Road political assessment. If you read the title of this month’s piece you realize where I am headed.
A good Commander always pays attention to the environment and notices that which is not normal. In combat, I would always counsel my junior leaders to look for things that are “out of whack” when you are out on patrol. Did you see children out playing? Were the regular sidewalk meat markets open? Were there news media vans riding around in the area of operations? You must always be tuned into the indicators and warnings (I/W) which can confirm or deny the intelligence reports you receive.
In the same light I have been listening to people and observing them whenever I am out and about.
We just had the 4th of July tea party events here in South Florida. I attended the Broward event which was in downtown Ft Lauderdale. The estimate by the Police was around 3000 for the crowd, truly amazing considering a hot holiday weekend Saturday. The local news came after the event and gave their estimation at a couple dozen.
We are living in such a time of media manipulation that Hitler’s Minister of Propaganda, Goebbels, would be proud. Many times I will flip back and forth between TV media outlets to contrast the story being reported, guess what? The glaring difference is not even debatable; one would think there is a completely different story being done.
The issue is that more and more people are noticing this, and Americans are becoming rather angry. You can see it in the falling subscriptions of the NY Times, and in the failing ratings of the “mainstream media” news.
Of course there are the mindless lemmings who truly are content with the current state of affairs in America. There are the left wing liberal socialists who believe that America is on the right track and could not be happier. However, what I am witnessing and assessing is their abject fear and concern about maintaining their “power”.
America, as a Country, is slowly awakening and the growing anger is no longer hidden. You see it in emails being passed along, you hear it on the street, when you look at the comment section to internet articles you sense it. Yes, there are the left wing blogs and comments but the hard hitting responses to them are powerful.
There is a reason why this current regime seeks to shut down voices of opposition, the truth is getting out. Why is there legislation to label pro-life and pro-gun groups as domestic terrorists? Why is there a move to create local community review boards that will evaluate, truly regulate, talk radio, the bastion of conservative discourse?
We sit in our Republic and find ourselves living with an unemployment rate that is at 9.6% and climbing. We listen to leadership who tell us that they “misread” the economy or had bad information. We are hearing about a second stimulus package because the first stimulus will not really take effect for two years…then why was it called a “stimulus”.
This most recent exhibit of Congressional incompetence called the “Cap and Trade” bill is nothing more than a behavior modification by taxation piece of legislation. We live with a government which seeks to coercively make us succumb to their desired energy agenda.
We know that there is legislation to grant citizenship to the 15-20 million illegal immigrants residing here in America. This is the number one means to solidify liberal power before the mid-term elections of 2010. The long term solution to cement the power grab is the 2010 census which has been moved from the Department of Commerce to the White House and handed to ACORN (or whatever their name is) for execution. These two actions will change the electoral base of our Republic for years.
We are up to 32 “Czars” in our Nation, in essence a shadow government which does not answer to the people, just the President. We are told that we WILL have a healthcare reform solution which contains a public option. Why would I want the same people who run the Postal Service and AMTRAK involved in my healthcare?
Our President does nothing to support young people in Iran against the Ayatollah’s but condemns the people of Honduras who are following their Constitution. We are seeing so many foreign policy faux pas’ which more than remind us of the Carter administration, just worse. Most recently we just ceded our nuclear weapons program to Russia and sold out our Eastern European allies. And what shall we do with North Korea? They are still holding two American female journalists.
All of you know my sentiments about the radical Islamic infiltration in America, and the world…..but hey, our President said they have made many contributions to the American way of life.
Yep, I think about that every time I undress when flying and see old movies of the New York City skyline.
Ok, the liberal response is simple, “It’s Bush’s fault”! To wit my response is even simpler, when does Obama take responsibility and is held accountable?
Leaders never look for excuses, they accept the situation in which they find themselves and come up with viable solutions. I would offer you read the story of COL Joshua Chamberlain at Little Round Top during the second day at the Battle of Gettysburg.
I know my liberal friends will say, war is terrible, but as John Stuart Mill stated,” the decayed and degraded moral state of patriotism which believes nothing worth war is worse”.
Hey Liberals, no more excuses, it’s your economy, your foreign policy, and you are in control, so stop whining!
So what does this all have to do with this month’s topic……people are getting more and more pissed off! (There is no better way of saying this)
We are approaching the “breaking point” and I reflect back to the 1993 Joel Schumacher film “Falling Down” which starred Michael Douglas. During this summer, the discontent will continue to arise as we head into the fall, which could have an appropriate meaning for the liberals.
Americans are growing tired of the ineptness, incompetence, and corruption which now characterizes Washington DC. Get to DC on 9-12 and let your anger be known, your voice heard, and do not just internalize that emotion.
Michael Douglas’ character just wanted to get a birthday present to his daughter……we want our Country back!
Steadfast and Loyal,
LTC(R) A B West

The Secret of the House Health Care Bill
The thing is, all of Obama’s General Sherman-like moves on American taxpayers are repeal-able with the exception of healthcare. It is a terrible, irrevocable change.
What makes Americans believe for one deluded moment that government can do anything better than the private sector is beyond me. The government got us into this mess. The government is the problem.
Keith Hennessey has an interesting take on the House health-care bill unveiled yesterday, and the tax burden it will levy on Americans at every economic level: (hat tip Morgan)
And for those who do not or cannot comply with the mandate, they end up in the worst of all worlds – uninsured and paying higher taxes. From CBO’s new tables, it appears that about eight million U.S. citizens would fall into this category. I expect that very few of these people would have more than $250,000 of income, the no-tax-increase line defined by the President.
They are destroying this country.

So Low
Who will speak for Jews in the American diaspora? The appointment of Alan Solow, a key
supporter and confidante of Barack Obama, as chair of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, U.S. Jewry’s most prominent voice in foreign and domestic policy issues, is the final nail in the coffin of American Jewish lay leadership. Why not Soros? Same thing. The function of the American diaspora is to support Israel. Period. The Israelis are the ones on the front lines. The Israelis are smack dab in the middle of the ugliest, hellish hot spot in the world. The Israelis are the ones meeting the endless violence of Islamic Jew hatred.
Sloppy, silly Jews like Solow have no right to sign off on a second holocaust – that’s what the two state "final solution" is. An Islamic state, eating, breathing, inculcating, fomenting, feeding, teaching Jew hatred as its reason for living (and dying) in the very heart of Israel is a death sentence.
Solow speaking for the Jewish diaspora is a cruel, dangerous hoax. Any feeling, thinking caring Jew should not give one dime to these traitors, not a cent. If I saw Solow or any of the other assclowns that were in the White House out on the street, I’d spit in their face.
The fix is in …………..
Solow, who once lived in Obama’s neighborhood, is one of Obama’s most veteran supporters, having backed his campaign for the Illinois State Senate a dozen years ago.
[...]
The Chicago connection also figures in Solow’s acquaintance with Obama White House chief of staff-designate Rahm Emanuel.
"He’s simply the best person for this job, because of his experience in Congress and in Clinton’s administration, and because of his intellect," Solow said of Emanuel, adding that "his support of Israel fits with the president-elect’s thinking."

TOTUS: Teleprompter Martyrs itself
In the interest of the advancement of Obama’s agenda, the teleprompter of the United States martyred itself today, but it was not a success. No kafirs or infidels were hurt in the suicide attack. Funny how Obama couldn’t turn his head from side to side after that.
Yesterday, during an afternoon speech on urban policy, tragedy struck again: Obama’s teleprompter fell loudly to the ground, shattering into several pieces. (Evidence in photo above, and video below.)
“Oh my goodness,” Obama said, clearly a veteran of teleprompter calamity. “Sorry about that, guys.” (more here)

Release the Vault Copy
BO, it’s so simple. Release the vault copy and put this baby to bed. What’s the problem?
The case is going forward. Over at the Ledger Enquirer:
Soldier balks at deploying; says Obama isn’t president
Says he shouldn’t have to go to Afghanistan because Obama is not a U.S. citizenBarack Obama was never eligible to be president because he wasn’t born in the United States.
In the 20-page document — filed July 8 with the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Georgia — the California-based Taitz asks the court to consider granting his client’s request based upon Cook’s belief that Obama is not a natural-born citizen of the United States and is therefore ineligible to serve as commander-in-chief of the U.S. Armed Forces.
Cook further states he “would be acting in violation of international law by engaging in military actions outside the United States under this President’s command. … simultaneously subjecting himself to possible prosecution as a war criminal by the faithful execution of these duties.”
Ha!
Pigs flying. UPDATE: FOX finally covered it. It took a year.
