Cheyney reveals he is an Israeli puppet-like we did not know that already!-Duh!

Cheney Says He Was Proponent for Military Action Against Iran
Former Vice President Also Criticizes CIA Probe as Political Move

By MICHAEL M. PHILLIPS Wall Street Journal attribution granted
WASHINGTON -- Former Vice President Dick Cheney hinted that, in the waning days of the Bush administration, he had pushed for a military strike to destroy Iran's nuclear-weapons program.
"I was probably a bigger advocate of military action than any of my colleagues," Dick Cheney said, regarding Iran and its nuclear ambitions.
In an interview on Fox News Sunday, Mr. Cheney described himself as being isolated among advisers to then-President George W. Bush, who ultimately decided against direct military action.
"I was probably a bigger advocate of military action than any of my colleagues," Mr. Cheney said in response to questions about whether the Bush administration should have launched a pre-emptive attack prior to handing over the White House to Barack Obama.
"I thought that negotiations could not possibly succeed unless the Iranians really believed we were prepared to use military force," Mr. Cheney said. "And to date, of course, they are still proceeding with their nuclear program and the matter has not yet been resolved."
Mr. Cheney's views were at odds with those of other top officials at the time. Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, had said repeatedly during those final months that a strike against Iran would make the Middle East more unstable and would raise the risk on American forces in neighboring Iraq and Afghanistan.
"This is a very unstable part of the world, and I don't need it to be more unstable," Adm. Mullen said in July 2008.
The Cheney interview focused mostly on Attorney General Eric Holder's naming of a special prosecutor to assess whether, during the Bush administration, Central Intelligence Agency interrogators' harsh questioning of terror suspects illegally exceeded the guidance of Justice Department lawyers.
Mr. Cheney said the legal review set a "terrible precedent" that would shatter morale at the CIA and increase the likelihood of future terror attacks. He accused President Obama of using the threat of criminal charges to score political points with the left wing of the Democratic Party.
"It's clearly a political move; there's no other rationale for them to be doing this," the former vice president said of the Obama administration review.
Mr. Cheney was particularly critical of Mr. Obama's statement that he had not influenced the attorney general's decision, and charged the president with waffling on his earlier pledge not to unearth old allegations. "I think he's trying to duck the responsibility for what's going on here, and I think it's wrong," Mr. Cheney said of the president.
The White House declined to issue a statement responding to Mr. Cheney's criticism. But an administration official, speaking anonymously, denied that Mr. Obama has been inconsistent. The new special prosecutor is only looking into cases where CIA agents allegedly went beyond the interrogation guidance given by the Bush Justice Department.
"What the president said weeks ago is that he agrees with the attorney general that those interrogators who followed the legal guidance from DOJ in good faith in conducting interrogations should not be prosecuted," the official said. "Nothing has changed in terms of that."
Mr. Cheney's comments drew sharp responses from some Democrats. "Dick Cheney has shown over the years, frankly, a disrespect for the Constitution," Sen. John Kerry (D., Mass.) said on ABC's "This Week with George Stephanopoulos."

Thank God, cooler heads prevailed! Cheyney was busted for DUI 2X in the early 60's, received 5 FIVE draft deferments, was a sub par student. By some fluke of fate the 10 year Congressman from Wyoming was appointed as Sec of Defense after former Texas Senator John G. Towers nomination was voted down by the Senate. This is typical chickenhawk shit, a Sec of Defense and Vice-President who had 5 draft deferments does not mind sending your family members to die for big oil and Israel. What hand did he have in 911?

Charlie Rangel - C'MON CHARLIE!!!

Charlie Rangel is trying to pull a fast one. This bastard should be sent to prison!
WALL STREET JOURNAL reports;
REVIEW & OUTLOOK AUGUST 28, 2009, 6:08 A.M. ET.The Absent-Minded Chairman
Charlie Rangel wins the personal lottery.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203706604574376720192072820.html
When normal people happen to "find" their own money, it might mean a twenty left in a winter coat, or discovering change beneath the sofa cushions. But if you're Charlie Rangel, it means doubling your net worth.
Earlier this month the Chairman of the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee "amended" his 2007 financial disclosure form—to the tune of more than a half-million dollars in previously unreported assets and income. That number may be as high as $780,000, because Congress's ethics rules only require the Members to report their finances within broad ranges. This voyage of personal financial discovery brings Mr. Rangel's net worth for 2007 to somewhere between $1.028 million and $2.495 million, while his previous statement came in at $516,015 and $1.316 million.
When you're a powerful Congressman and working diligently to increase tax rates to pay for President Obama's health-care plan, we suppose it's easy to lose track of one of your checking accounts. That would be the one at the federal credit union with a balance somewhere between $250,001 and maybe as high as $500,000. And when you're crunched for time and pulling together bills to pass in a rush, we guess, too, that you might overlook several other investment accounts, even if some of them are sizable, such as the ones Mr. Rangel missed at JP Morgan, Merrill Lynch, Oppenheimer and BlackRock.
Oh, and those vacant properties in Glassboro, in southern Jersey? Everybody in Manhattan tries not to think much about New Jersey, so those lots and their as-much-as-$15,000 value must also have slipped down the memory hole. (The New York Post reported yesterday that Mr. Rangel failed to pay property taxes for two of the lots, according to the county clerk's office.)
The Chairman probably isn't doing a lot of dining at KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell or Long John Silver's, either, which may explain why he didn't disclose the $1,001 to $15,000 in stock he owns in Yum Brands, the conglomerate that runs those chain restaurants. Compared to his undisclosed portfolio stake in PepsiCo—$15,001 to $50,000—that's practically a rounding error.
All lawmakers amend their financial reports from time to time, though rarely are the errors this extensive. Via email, a Rangel spokesman declined to offer details about how the errors occurred, noting that "Once the Ethics Committee completes its work, then we can answer questions in more detail." He added that Mr. Rangel is now "confident that his records have been subjected to an exhaustive and complete review, and that the amendments accurately reflect his financial interests."
Among other issues, Mr. Rangel is currently under investigation regarding his use of four rent-stabilized apartments at New York City's tony Lenox Terrace and soliciting donations with his official letterhead for the earmark.Charles B. Rangel Center for Public Service at City College of New York, which was itself built with a $1.9 million earmark! Yet another part of the probe is his failure to report $75,000 in income from a rental villa at the beachfront Punta Cana Yacht Club, in the Dominican Republic.Mr. Rangel blamed that last one on the language barrier because he doesn't speak Spanish. We can only imagine what language he speaks with his accountants and tax attorneys.

Are Congressman so out of touch they fail to report tens of thousands (make that hundreds of thousands!) of dollars in income over a span of years - who are their advisors? Are we nuts for putting incompetents like this in office?

One does not have to be a scientist to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the universe as viewed through a camera or a telescope or just as an observer of the night sky.

Mossad and 911 or Blame the Arabs

See Chris Bollyn's book on the 911 conspiracy and the incontrovertible evidence that points back to Israel as a participant if not main actor on the events of 9-11-2001.

http://www.bollyn.com/solving-9-11-the-book

Bollyn has spent many hours unearthing the facts and connecting the dots as to what happened on 911. We are to believe a bunch of Arab rug pilot playboys with box cutters who could not fly worth a damn pulled of this extremely high level black ops operation? The Bastards who did this profited financially and are still on the loose, while we torture 12 year olds with power drills at Guantanamo terror prison in Cuba.

The more I learn about Israel, the less I like their government. Israel has deep roots in the US and subverts America if it benefits the Israeli state.

Walter Rodgers, writing for the Christian Science Monitor on August 25, 2009 says:

The idea that the Obama administration can advance the Middle East peace process by having Israel freeze its construction of Jewish settlements in the West Bank stretches credulity.
Does any serious observer of the region believe that Israel's appetite for land – owned and occupied for generations by Palestinians – is going to abate?
The Israeli land grab has continued for four decades, in defiance of international law and most US presidents. US Middle East envoy George Mitchell has been trying to secure a halt, but his efforts follow a well-worn path that typically ends in charade.
Just weeks ago, the Israeli government evicted two extended Palestinian families from their homes in East Jerusalem, clearing the way for more houses for Jews in traditionally Palestinian neighborhoods.
Israeli settlements have become a kind of concrete kudzu to Palestinians. The Fatah party recently renewed its commitment to resisting them, holding that "the Palestinians have the right to resist the Israeli occupation by all possible means."
But for the Jewish state, the settlements are eminently sensible and their growth is almost certain to continue, either openly or stealthily. As Interior Minister Eli Yishai put it Aug. 10, expanding settlements near Jerusalem is vital for "security, national interests, and is just and necessary."
Every new Jewish apartment complex enlarges and deepens the Jewish footprint on occupied land. The California-style townhouses atop the hills of ancient Samaria and Judea are seen as security buffers for an Israeli island in a hostile Islamic sea. Israel's feeling of vulnerability is intensified by the growing Arab population already within its borders.
The settlements have become affordable suburbs for Israelis otherwise priced out of the metropolitan markets. More than 300,000 Jewish settlers now call the West Bank home.
Further, religious and ultrareligious Jewish settlers insist they have divinely bestowed title to the land. Few passages in the Bible are more frightening to Arabs than Deuteronomy 11:24:
"Every place whereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even unto the uttermost sea shall your coast be."
Palestinian Arabs are too weak to legally or militarily challenge the Jewish state's internal expansion. An Israeli court recently ruled that Israel can now confiscate land belonging to Palestinians who once resided in an area but are now refugees pending final settlement.
Having lived in Jerusalem for five years during the salad days of the peace process in the 1990s, I watched settlement builders nibble away at what were once Palestinian homes, villages, and pastures.
From Jerusalem southward, the construction of the Har Homa settlement crabs outward to the doorsteps of Palestinian Bethlehem. From the air, these settlements appear a terrestrial octopus, extending out to ultimately link up with the more militant Jewish settlements farther south in Hebron, another city with a large Palestinian majority.
Settlement building resembles military flanking and encirclement maneuvers, isolating Palestinian population centers. In Jerusalem, there are at least half a dozen Arab neighborhoods, including the Mount of Olives, threatened by Israel's voracious hunger for land. Quoted in the newspaper Haaretz, Sarah Kreimer of Ir Amim, a group specializing in Israeli-Palestinian relations, says, "In each of these places, plans are being advanced for construction whose ultimate purpose is to disconnect the Old City from Palestinian Jerusalem."
Israelis have brilliantly created a sense of inevitability to all this. Yet, the moral difficulties of moving indigenous peoples off the land by subterfuge or force are obvious. When in the past I've raised the ethical implications of these land appropriations, Israelis have dismissed me, saying, "Hey, you Americans did it to the Indians."
American presidents have often quietly nudged Israel to freeze the settlements, but their actual leverage has been minimal. Israelis have elected both doves and hawks as prime minister, but virtually all Israeli governments supported settlement expansion in varying degrees.
Jewish political clout in America ought not be underestimated. A former chairman of the American Israel Political Action Committee once boasted to me, "We got [Sen.] Chuck Percy [an Illinois Republican who was narrowly defeated in 1984] when he crossed us on the Palestinians." President Obama will face a similar threat at election time if he defies Israel's expansionist instincts.
US presidents have so frequently pledged unshakable support for Israel that it's created the illusion that US and Israeli interests are identical. It might be useful for Mr. Obama and his Middle East team to publicly point to serious differences with Israel when they arise. If the US can have public disagreements with its allies, including Britain, why should Israel be exempted from what could be a healthy debate?
Jewish settlement construction may temporarily downshift into neutral. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton may hail "a building freeze." But if the past is prologue, the first time Obama is distracted by another domestic or international crisis, and Washington isn't looking, the Israeli bulldozers will be back at work.
Walter Rodgers served as the CNN bureau chief in Jerusalem for 5-1/2 years. He writes a biweekly column for the Monitor's weekly edition.
For a different perspective, read David Wilder's Mr. Obama, Hebron is an eternal home for Jews.

UTTER DEPRAVITY!

Just when you think you have heard it all, some human animal will come up with an new twist to..., murder. Angela Simpson of Phoenix is utter human garbage and I'll let the reporter pick it up from here..,

By Meena Kar - A Phoenix native has been facing allegations of torturing and murdering a man helplessly bound to a wheelchair. Angela Simpson on Tuesday confessed to her crime, shouldering responsibility of having inhumanely killed Terry Neely, whom she called nasty. She said she took delight in finishing him off.
Television station KTVK, in an interview with the 33 year old Angela Simpson, recorded a candid acceptance from the murderer who said she tempted a 46-year old Terry Neely to have sex with her and guided him to her apartment. She even promised the man some drugs, she said. Once Neely reached her home she allegedly beat him with a tire iron, plucking out several of his teeth and finally strangled the man with a t.v. cable, after 3 days of persistent torture. She said the experience was gratifying as the man was a snitch.
After Neely died she tried to get rid of him by burning his body. The mutilated remains were traced in a trash container outside church premises on August 5th, and Phoenix police spokesman Luis Samudio said that the body had burnt to such an extent that Neely’s gender could not be determined and only after the body parts were recovered by firefighters that it was identified via his fingerprints.
Angela Simpson behaved brutally indifferent and callous to the seriousness of her crime even asking investigators to give her a candy bar in return for her nonchalant disclosure.
Investigators are “shocked at the casualness” of her monstrosity. Autopsy results revealed that Simpson had even hammered a 3-inch nail into the head of Neely!

See this link and if you can stomach it watch the video. The link is also contrained in the header of this post.

What is wrong with us as a species that we exhibit and carry out this behavior?

A True Tale of Savagery!-by:James H. Lilley

Rape, Mutilation, and Murder: The Christian/Newsom Story
James H. Lilley republished under, "Fair Use" credit given to author.
On Saturday January 6, 2007 Hugh Christopher Newsom, age 23 and Channon Gail Christian, age 21, both students at the University of Tennessee went out on a date.
They were driving in Channon's Toyota 4-Runner when they were carjacked at gunpoint. Suddenly the crime turned far more savage than an armed car theft. Chris and Channon were kidnapped and driven to 2316 Chipman Street where they were forced into the home at gunpoint. While Channon was forced to watch, her boyfriend was raped prison style and then his penis was cut off. He was later driven to nearby railroad tracks where he was shot and set afire. But Channon's hell was just beginning. She was beaten; gang raped repeatedly in many ways, had one of her breasts cut off and bleach poured down her throat to destroy DNA evidence-all while she was still alive. To add to Channon's degradation the suspects took turns urinating on her. They too set her body afire, apparently inside the residence, but for some reason left her body there-in five separate trash bags.

The District Attorney General of Knox County later announced the arrests of the following five suspects and the charges they'd face:
Lemaricus "Slim" Davidson, age 25 faces a total of 46 charges. Davidson was indicated on 16 counts of Felony Murder growing out of rape, robbery, kidnapping and theft of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom. Two counts premeditated murder of Christian and Newsom, 4 counts especially aggravated kidnapping of Christian and Newsom, 20 counts aggravated rape of Christian and Newsom and 2 counts of theft from Christian and Newsom.
Latalvis "Rome" Cobbins, age 24, faces a total of 46 charges. Cobbins was indicted on 16 counts of Felony Murder growing out of rape, robbery, kidnapping and theft of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom. Two counts especially aggravated robbery from Christian and Newsom, 4 counts especially aggravated kidnapping of Christian and Newsom, 20 counts of aggravated rape of Christian and Newsom and 2 counts of theft from Christian and Newsom.
George "Detroit" Thomas, age 24, faces a total of 46 charges. Thomas was indicated on 16 counts of Felony Murder growing out of rape, robbery, kidnapping and theft of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom. Two Counts of premeditated murder of Christian and Newsom, 2 counts especially aggravated robbery from Christian and Newsom, 4 counts especially aggravated kidnapping of Christian and Newsom, 20 counts of aggravated rape of Christian and Newsom and 2 counts of theft from Christian and Newsom.
Vanessa Coleman, age 18, faces a total of 40 Tennessee State charges. Coleman was indicated on 12 Counts of Felony Murder growing out of rape, robbery, kidnapping and theft of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom. One count premeditated murder of Christian only, 1 count of especially aggravated robbery of Newsom only, 4 counts especially aggravated kidnapping of Christian and Newsom, 20 counts of aggravated rape of Christian and Newsom and 2 counts of theft from Christian and Newsom.
Eric "E" Boyd, age 24, was arrested in connection with the carjacking, but faces only federal charges as an accessory after the fact.
I wasn't aware of this incident until a friend brought it to my attention May 9th. Until then I'd never heard even a single comment regarding this brutal crime mentioned by any of our national news media. We had the death of Anna Nicole Smith shoved down our throats by ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC and FOX News (if we cared to watch) for hours on end over a period of several weeks. I didn't give a rat's ass about some overweight, drugged out, has-been bimbo who was apparently willing to crawl into bed with any man who had anything vaguely resembling a pulse. Yet, I couldn't turn on the television without some new twist in the Anna Nicole saga being discussed. The only victim in this entire matter is the poor baby who was used as a pawn by everyone with dollar signs in their eyes. Just about the time the Anna Nicole Smith epic was winding down we had Don Imus and the "Nappy headed hos" comment that grabbed headlines around the world. So, for another two or three weeks we were bombarded with cries of insensitivity and racism while Al Sharpton frantically tried to arouse the fires of racial hatred.
Why wasn't the nation informed of the brutal rape, mutilation and murder of Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian? Was it because they were white and the suspects black? That certainly seems to be the opinion among thousands who have very angrily commented on this case in daily blogs. There are accusations that the press has a double standard when race is a component of crime. One example given was how often do we hear about a suspect wanted for a crime described as a "white male," but when the suspect is black no mention of race is made? Like it or not, I've heard this quite often from the Baltimore and Washington television stations. Though I will also report that I've heard the race given when the suspect is black. I don't know if it's station policy or the beliefs of particular reporters broadcasting the news when it comes to the offering of a full description of a suspect or not. But, in my opinion, when you air a broadcast and ask the public to provide information regarding a suspect and his or her whereabouts, you should publish the complete description and that includes race-no exceptions.
The murders of Chris Newsom and Channon Christian have brought a firestorm of criticism directed toward the national media and rightly so. There are glaring gaps in the reporting of crimes when race is an issue. We need only to look at Duke University and the accusations leveled against members of the lacrosse team. The media went wild in reporting the alleged rape of a black woman by white team members. The press couldn't wait to put Duke University, the players, the lacrosse team coach and the white race in general on trial for this reported atrocity. Not only did the press put them on trial, but also convicted everyone involved before all the evidence had been collected and analyzed and the investigation completed. Of course, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton couldn't wait to jump in front of any and all cameras available and go on the attack. This was their moment to shine once again by standing tall for the rights of the "victim" and scream racism. They had the privileged white boys of Duke in their sights and were going to mow them, their families and friends down.
And seizing the opportunity to hype his political aspirations was District Attorney Mike Nifong. He declared the players guilty and the media was damn near choking on their exuberance to build the gallows and braid the hangman's noose. Plastered on every televised news report and on the front page of every newspaper across the nation are the photographs and names of the accused players. By God, there's a good old fashioned lynching brewing and those privileged white boys are gonna be hangin' by their rich necks. Oops. It seems somebody forgot the evidence. You know, the proof needed to confirm beyond a reasonable doubt the guilt of the accused players. Crystal Gail Mangum, the alleged victim of the rape, had seven different DNA samples on her body and clothing and none of the DNA belonged to even one of the Duke Lacrosse players. The repercussions from the false allegation of rape by Mangum are still reverberating throughout the entire community. But media attention dwindled to almost nothing very quickly when the "race card" died and there was nothing left for them to sensationalize. To the lacrosse players and Duke University the media said, "screw you and the fact that we did our best to ruin your reputations. Our ratings skyrocketed and that's all that matters."
As far as the rape, mutilation and murders of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom, some in the media are saying this case doesn't represent a hate crime. Well, it sure as hell doesn't symbolize a night of love and bonding between the young couple and those who butchered them. Was the cutting off of Chris' penis an act of human kindness? Was the cutting off of Channon's breast and pouring bleach down her throat an act of compassion and love? This was pure hatred, nothing less. How could any person of sound mind and thinking look at this case and say with absolute certainty that hate wasn't involved in the commission of the atrocities against Christian and Newsom?
Reading over dozens of pages on the Christian and Newsom murders and other cases I noted many angry comments one of which said the media has a recent history of "blacking out" certain news stories when race is involved. The Wichita Massacre was referenced as one of these. The Carr brothers executed four white victims, after forcing them to kneel naked in a frozen field in Kansas. A fifth intended victim lived when a bullet fired toward her head knocked her unconscious instead of killing her. She was able to identify her attackers who were arrested and charged with other violent crimes as well.
Yet, their vicious crimes were treated to a media "black out." Here cries of bias are raised because the murder of James Byrd, a black man, dragged to death by three white men received top media billing. But the Byrd case was only one of the examples used to point out the disparity in reporting.
I won't attempt to write a lengthy commentary on this issue. Instead I'll refer you to the various web sites that can be found detailing all of these cases. You need only enter the names Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom to open the dozens of sites and blogs that tell of and talk about these crimes. But be forewarned that you will find some shocking and sickening incidents of violence. And maybe your views will be similar to mine after you read about these events-the perpetrators, white and black, are indeed a subhuman culture and should be erased permanently from society. They should become nothing more than a bad memory in a faded photograph.
I've always believed the motto "No one is above the law, nor is anyone below it." I've held a belief that the law was and is for everyone, regardless of race, religion or ethnic background and when it comes to crime and justice everyone should be treated equally. I don't care if a person accused of a crime is considered privileged because of wealth and fame or they're from a row home in the city, the law should apply equally.
I feel the same about media coverage of crimes. If you're going to beat the drums loudly, point fingers and cry racism or hate, do it without bias. Bang your drums and point your fingers, but make sure you cover all races with equal fervor. When the media tries to play the game of "politically correct" by concealing facts regarding the race of suspects in a case, they are guilty of inciting racial prejudice. We can find enough of that in our society without the media further fanning the flames of bigotry.
Maybe Doctor Martin Luther King said it best. "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."

How I View Black Thug Culture

Black thugs rule the inner cities like Detroit, Philly, St.Louis, DC, Oakland and any other big city where blacks and other minorities account for the majority of the population. Hell, last week Paterson, New Jersey was considering a curfew for adults because of the the crime ridden city has had a number of shootings this summer.

This is a cultural crisis caused by MTV and BET RAP Videos that glamorizes drug using/dealing, gun toting, criminal behavior that calls for ready cash, bling and stupid cars fitted with 500 watt amplifiers so they can broadcast the dropline of their hip hop rap crap blasting out of the windows of their pimped out rides while they smoke blunts.

Cities like Detroit, Cleveland and Gary Indiana have a high school graduation rate of 25-30% and are turning out thousands of uneducated thugs and thug wannabes as well as the women who are attracted to these lowlifes.

Black thugs are a criminal underworld that has exploded and is filling our prisons and penetentiaries where they further their thug education.

The statistics, from the book the Bell Curve that suggests lower IQ's and the crime statistics that prove this minority of the population commits the majority of crime are indisputable.

We live in a nation of dumbasses who seem to embrace and admire these thugs. Sick.

Christian-Newsom Trials underway in Knoxville, TN

Shannon Christian and Christopher Newsom were carjacked, tortured, raped and murdered by black thugs on the night of January 6, 2007 in Knoxville, TN.

The barbarity of the crimes exceed description. The national news media has all but ignored this story.

On Saturday January 6, 2007 Hugh Christopher Newsom, age 23 and Channon Gail Christian, age 21, both students at the University of Tennessee went out on a date. They were driving in Channon's Toyota 4-Runner when they were carjacked at gunpoint. Suddenly the crime turned far more savage than an armed car theft. Chris and Channon were kidnapped and driven to 2316 Chipman Street where they were forced into the home at gunpoint. While Channon was forced to watch, her boyfriend was raped prison style and then his penis was cut off. He was later driven to nearby railroad tracks where he was shot and set afire. But Channon's hell was just beginning. She was beaten; gang raped repeatedly in many ways, had one of her breasts cut off and bleach poured down her throat to destroy DNA evidence-all while she was still alive. To add to Channon's degradation the suspects took turns urinating on her. They too set her body afire, apparently inside the residence, but for some reason left her body there-in five separate trash bags...

In the months following the crimes, Miami Herald writer Leanord Pitts gives the following account;

Published: 06.04.2007
My opinion Leonard J. Pitts Jr. : Lunatic fringe focuses on 'oppressed' white people
My opinion Leonard J. Pitts Jr.
It always amazes me when white people put on the victim hat. As in victim of racial oppression. By any measure — health, education, economics, employment — white Americans enjoy a superior standard of living. If that's racial oppression, sign me up.
But still, one occasionally hears mewling noises from that subset of my white countrymen who feel put upon by big, bad racial minorities. This is one of those times. And Knoxville, Tenn., has become the capital city of that lunatic fringe.
It seems that in January, a young white couple, Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom, were victims of a brutal crime. They were carjacked, kidnapped and raped. Cleaning fluid was sprayed into Christian's mouth. She was stuffed in a trash can and apparently suffocated. Newsom was shot and set afire. His body was dumped. Five blacks, one a woman, have been arrested.
The story made headlines around Knoxville. It was unnoticed nationally.
That has changed. A constellation of white supremacists and conservative bloggers has pushed the story into the national limelight as an illustration of their argument that news media, constrained by political correctness, refuse to report black-on-white crime while pulling out all the stops when crime is white-on-black, as in the Duke lacrosse debacle. Me, I would see their Duke case and raise them a Central Park jogger, but what do I know?
Anyway, bloggers like Michael Oliver have chastised the "liberal, biased, Mainstream Media" for missing the Knoxville story. He asked, "Had the roles been reversed, would the media ignore such a horrific crime?"
Truth is, media ignore horrific crimes all the time. Space is limited and growing more so. Which means the story that catches fire usually has some element beyond gruesomeness to sell it. In the Duke case, it was class, privilege, sex AND race that did it.
Not that I expect Oliver or any other "oppressed" white person to pay attention to something so trivial as fact. They're too busy demanding that this case be tried as a hate crime — even though police say there's no evidence the couple was targeted for any other reason than that they were there. And May 26, white supremacists held — I kid you not — a "rally against genocide" in Knoxville.
Part of me thinks I should consider the source and let this slide. But the argument being advanced here is so utterly, abysmally, stupidly, self-servingly wrong that I cannot help but respond.
Black crime against whites is underreported? On what planet? Study after study and expert after expert tell a completely different story.
For instance, there's "Off Balance: Youth, Race and Crime in the News," a 2001 report which concluded that: Blacks and Latinos are underrepresented in news media as victims of crime and significantly overrepresented as perpetrators, based on crime statistics; newspaper articles about white homicide victims are longer and more frequent than those about black ones; and interracial violent crime is more likely to be reported even though it is just about the rarest kind of violent crime.
And here I'm obligated, because I'm black, to say that if the defendants in this case did what they are accused of doing, I'd be happy to see them rot under the jailhouse. Sadly, that needs saying because there are people who will not take it as a given.
But with that obligation fulfilled, let me add that I am likewise unkindly disposed toward the crackpots, incendiaries and flat-out racists who have chosen this tragedy upon which to take an obscene and ludicrous stand. I have four words for them and any other white Americans who feel themselves similarly victimized:
Cry me a river.
My opinion
Leonard J. Pitts Jr.

crackpot racists?!

Okay then.

911 Conspiracy Fact

HOW ABOUT THIS TAKE ON 9-11 FROM JUDICIAL-INC.BIZ:
The 9/11 Attack:~~ The second big camp for the 'Alternative Media' is the 9/11 movement. Basically, a potpourri of spittling bagel munchers talking about minutiae. Did the CIA plant micro nukes at the WTC., why did building 7 collapse, did the jets really land at Area 51, are the passengers alive, and are they living in a remote CIA desert compound?The truth there is that Israel orchestrated the entire event. There were no 19 young Arab guys trained on a small Cessna. These were trained Israelis. A Sayret Matkal Capt. led the first operation, a mossad operative was identified on the second jet. The third jet, Fl 77, didn't fly for 62 minutes and amazingly avoided the hundreds of fighters at Norfolk, the Seymour Johnson AB, NORAD, Otis, Andrews, Shaw, Pope, etc. It was actually replaced with a remote-controlled plane that hit the Pentagon. Fl 77. The real Flight 77 jet went out in the Atlantic to ram the USS Washington, and Norad shot it down. The 4th jet was shot down, but not over Shanksville. ---------------------WOW, now maybe we are getting somewhere. Remember, the Bush administration was against any 9-11 inquiry and when they relented both Bush and Cheyney testified BUT - NOT UNDER OATH (as not to commit perjury!). Max Cleland, Senator from Georgia resigned the 9-11 Commission because it was a whitewash. Who has this much power to pull off 9-11? Not a bunch of Muslim Playboys from Saudi Arabia wielding box cutters! Be ready for the next big attack! A nukee burst perhaps? These bastards are capable of anything!!!

The Plane Boss!!! THE PLANE!!!!

Welcome to fantasy island, where all of your dreams are fulfilled! Does the theft of Billions in taxpayer dollars by our once venerated corporations, banks and institutions have you concerned. After all, isn't it like the Savings and Loan scandal all over again, only this time on methamphetamine. The corporate criminals cooked the books for one purpose - to get their bonuses! They win, we lose, and the situation is out of control. So much for having a Swiss bank account or keeping my money offshore in the Cayman islands! The rich pay few taxes as they have CPA's and tax attorneys shield their wealth from the IRS as they laugh, well, all the way to the bank! (quite literally!). Record trillion dollar deficits and debt and no one wants to ante up!

Let's Steal Their Land -Kill 'Em If They Protest

The Israeli's are not nice people. They have destroyed hundreds of Palestinian settlements, towns and cities. The Israeli's then bulldoze everything to the ground and build Israeli settlements and then PAY Israeli settlers to live there! The Palestinians are no more than dogs, scum and human debris as far as Israel is concerned. And Israel wonders why suicide bombers are in their midst? The Israeli's have taken the indigenous people of Palestine, which has now become Israel and decimated and killed the native population as it steals their land without compensation and builds Israeli settlements. Think about what the Founding Fathers in this country decided; to have a separation of church and state. In Israel the church, ie; the Jewish religion, is, the State. No separation whatsoever. A bunch of religious kooks.
