Democratic Pollster: The Republican Party ‘Is a Domestic Terror Group’
On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “AM Joy,” Democratic pollster Fernand Amandi stated the Republican Party isn’t a political party, it is “a domestic terror group.”
Amandi commented on the lack of push for the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) by Republican members of Congress from Florida by stating, “I think it leads to the question, is it any surprise that the party that is pro-pay for play, pro-Putin, and now with Roy Moore, pro-pedophilia, the fact that they’re anti-children, is that any surprise? I don’t think it is. And I think Joy, this is emblematic, this CHIP scenario, where you mentioned 9 million children, children, without health insurance. I think if you take a step back, one has to ask themselves, and I think the American people should ask themselves the broader question, what has the Republican Party, in the last 10 years, done to help the American people? What have they done? This is not a political party. This is a domestic terror group. And what I think the American people should consider when they ask themselves that question, with a party that has done nothing to help the American people, is to vote them out and consider possibly afterwards locking them up, Joy.”

Ex-Cop Making Roy Moore Harassment Claim is Leftist, Anti-Moore Opponent
Few witnesses could be more damning against a purported sexual abuser of four decades ago than an ex-cop from that era. That is, unless the ex-cop has a hidden agenda. Like the former Gadsden, Alabama, cop who claims police were told in the 1970s to ensure that now-GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore stayed away from teen cheerleaders — and who actually turns out to be a left-wing Moore opponent.

An eyewitness who was riding in a taxi saw several gunman firing full-auto bursts at the corner of Mandalay Bay Rd and Las Vegas Blvd at 9:50 p.m., ten minutes before the shooting officially started.
A man who wishes to remain anonymous recently told End Times News Report’s Jake Morphonios that there were multiple gunmen on the corner of Mandalay Bay Rd and Las Vegas Blvd at 9:50 p.m., ten minutes before the shooting officially started.
The man told End Times News Report that he was “up in the Delano hanging out with some friends” on the night of October 1 when a female friend of his decided to grab an Uber and and “go meet up with some other friends of hers” at another location.
“She got picked up in an Uber down at the Delano valet,” he said. “She called me about five minutes later and I know the exact time she called because the timestamp is still on my cell phone — 9:55 p.m. — she called me at 9:55 p.m.”
“As soon as I answered she tells me that there are shooters on the ground down in the street,” he explained. “Las Vegas Blvd was full of traffic so she hadn’t made it very far away.”
The man said that the woman’s Uber ride had just turned onto the boulevard when she told him that she saw several gunmen.
“When she first called to tell me what she was seeing I thought she was joking but then I heard gunshots myself,” the woman’s friend explained. “It sounded like automatic gunfire.”
The man also noted that his friend told him that the armed men did not appear to be law enforcement officers.

‘Ignorant Infidels’ In U.S. May Have to be ‘Forced’to Accept Islam
Dire warning given at Islamist conference in Virginia
Radical imams from Virginia, Maryland and Texas recently attended a fund-raising event organized by an Islamist charity in which they were treated to a smorgasbord of teachings from foreign-based Islamic thinkers.
The prime delicacy was offered up by keynote speaker Habib-ur-Rehman Ludhianvi, a visiting Islamic cleric from Pakistan.
Ludhiavi believes America is a “land of infidels,” whom he described as “ignorant.” His comments are a ringing example of what Muslim leaders say when they are behind closed doors and in the company of other Muslims, as opposed to the public comments meant for gullible infidel ears, security experts tell WND.
The only reason the public knows what was said inside the Nov. 18 conference at a Holiday Inn in Springfield, Virginia, is because the gathering was infiltrated by Ehsan Rehan, the brave Pakistani-born journalist and editor of Rabwah Times who went undercover and captured video and audio.

Liberal Media Admits: The Ultimate Goal is Gun Confiscation From All Citizens… at Gunpoint!
Remember all those times the liberal Democrats assured those on the right that they’re not out to take away anyone’s guns? Well, add that one to the long list of the left’s broken promises, right along with “if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor” and “I did not have sexual relations with that woman.”
Earlier this month, David Scharfenberg of the Boston Globe wrote an article titled “Hand Over Your Weapons,” in which he actually argued that total gun confiscation might be the only real solution to preventing mass shootings in this country. “The logic of gun control lies, at bottom, in substantially reducing the number of deadly weapons on the street — and confiscation is far and away the most effective approach,” Scharfenberg said. “Is there any conceivable turn of events in our politics that could make confiscation happen? And what would a mass seizure look like?”
Right from the start, it’s clear that Scharfenberg hasn’t spent much time thinking this idea through. Total gun confiscation in America would most likely be a two-part process. First, the people would be given a chance to voluntarily surrender their firearms to their local or state government within a certain time frame. Millions of gun owners would inevitably refuse, citing their right to bear arms under the Second Amendment of the Constitution. Tensions between the government and the people would continue to grow to the point where federal agents would literally start going door to door collecting firearms, potentially igniting a civil war within a matter of months.
Sorry, Mr. Scharfenberg, but your idea really isn’t a good one. (Related: Leftists are lying about gun control by failing to mention that the vast majority of gun deaths in America are suicides.)

Meredith, Koch Brothers Buy Time Inc in 2.8 Billion Deal
Confirming rumors that had swirled over the past 10 days, on Sunday night Meredith Corp., publisher of Better Homes & Gardens, Martha Stewart Living and Family Circle announced it has agreed to acquire all of Time Inc’s outstanding shares for $18.50/share or $1.85BN; including the assumption of Time’s debt, the deal is valued at a total of $2.8 billion. Meredith has secured $3.55BN in debt financing from RBC Capital Markets, Credit Suisse, Barclays and Citigroup Global Markets, according to the FT.
More importantly, the acquisition is also backed with a $650 million preferred equity commitment from Koch Equity Development, the private equity firm of Charles and David Koch, giving the conservative billionaires a stake in one of America’s best-known publishers. That said, the Kochs will not have a seat on Merediths board and, the company said, “will have no influence on Meredith’s editorial or managerial operations”.

Angela Merkel Faces ‘Imminent Demise’
THE German Chancellor faces the end of her tenure in power, after 12 years at the helm of Europe’s largest economy, according to a key news correspondent.
Angela Merkel is “at the end of career” following her failure to form a government, according to Jenny Hill, the BBC’s Berlin correspondent.
Mrs Merkel has led the German government — and played a major role in the direction of the EU — for the past 12 years.
However, according to the bomshell interview, the German leader faces an “imminent demise” amid reports that her party is scrambling to find a “new voice for the country”.
Mrs Merkel is desperately trying to cling to power by tying up a grand coalition deal with the Social Democrats — but so far a deal has eluded her.

Atkinson’s motion against farm murders was rejected by a majority. She said in South Africa the “situation remains extremely serious”. She described how she had joined the protest against farm murders on #BlackMonday.
“Being a farmer in South Africa is one of the most dangerous professions in the world,” Atkinson pointed out. She added that there were “huge concerns about the functioning of the police” which “strangely enough does not seem to be an issue for the international community”.
She proposed a debate on the matter and demanded a statement from the EU Commission as well as the European Council. Atkinson proposed to have farm murders as the first item on the agenda.
Janice Atkinson, an independent Member for South East England, requested that the EU Parliament debate #FarmMurders in South Africa. Unsurprisingly, they voted against it. Moreover, they would have jumped enthusiastically out of their chairs to vote in favor of international intervention to end Apartheid.

French Author: Divide France to Avoid “Civil War” With Muslims
Fair or not, people have long made jokes about the French surrendering at a conflict’s very start. Now a French author proposes surrender before a conflict has even begun — to avoid civil war with Muslims.
Writing at Causeur.fr, intellectual Christian de Moliner makes the following points (auto-translated from French and edited slightly for style):
- “The war in France is just beginning… Many murderous Islamist attacks have just taken place and a few aftershocks from the other side are appearing.”
- “We can never put the toothpaste back in the tube and convert the 30 percent of Muslims who demand the introduction of sharia to … our democracy.”
- “We will never be able to eradicate radical Islamism.”
- “The faithful of the Prophet are already united in areas sometimes governed by special rules” (no-go-zones).
De Moliner proposes what essentially is a quasi-Sharia state within France, where Muslims who so choose could live by the Koran. He writes that they “will have the right to vote … but they will apply Shariah in everyday life, to regulate matrimonial laws (which will legalize polygamy) and inheritance. They will no longer apply to French judges for disputes between Muslims, but to Cadis. On the other hand, conflicts between Christians and believers will remain the responsibility of ordinary courts.”
Moreover, de Moliner states, “This system would involve schools or hospitals reserved for believers and therefore the creation of local committees that will manage them independently. A council of ulemas [a body of Muslim scholars] will fix the religious law, but the autonomy will stop there. It is obviously out of the question that an embryonic Muslim government should develop in France.”
Unsurprisingly, de Moliner has received harsh criticism. Yet he’s correct in saying that a failure to “face reality” will be disastrous. The problem is that he only faces half of it.

French Politicians Launch New Party in Challenge to Conservatives
A breakaway group of French politicians launched a right-leaning political party Sunday as an alternative to the conservative Les Républicains party.
The party — called “Agir,” which in French means “to act” — was founded by 19 politicians who were previously members of the “Constructivists,” a group formed in June by members from the Républicains party and the center-right Union of Democrats and Independents, according to French newspaper Le Figaro.
The party is staking its ground as an alternative to Les Républicains, which has been divided and demoralized ever since François Fillon crashed out of the presidential race in April. Laurent Wauquiez, the front-runner in party leadership elections slated for December, has staked out anti-Macron stances on everything from economic policy to the role of Islam in France, often emulating far-right leader Marine Le Pen and infuriating some moderates.

Geert Wilders for Gatestone Institute: Time Do Drain the Swamp — Also in Europe
Next month, I will be visiting Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic. I have been invited to speak to a group of Czech patriots. The Czechs are a freedom loving people. In 2011, on the occasion of the 100th birthday of Ronald Reagan, they named a street in Prague after this great American president and freedom fighter.
This fact reminded me of a shameful event in my home town of The Hague, the seat of the Dutch Parliament and the government of the Netherlands. Look for a Ronald Reagan Street in The Hague and you will find none. A proposal in 2011 to name a street in The Hague after Reagan ran into fierce political opposition. Leftist parties, such as Labor, the Greens and the liberal D66 party, argued that naming a street in honor of Reagan would “do the image of the city no good.” The whole affair ended in a disgraceful political compromise. Last year, a short stretch of a local bicycle path was named the “Reagan and Gorbachev Lane”.
This anecdote is indicative of the difference between East and West in Europe. We can see the same difference in the attitude of their ruling elites towards Islam, the new totalitarianism that is threatening Europe today. In the East, political leaders oppose Islam; in the West, they surrender.
Islam has already gained a strong foothold in Western Europe. Its streets have come to resemble the Middle East, with headscarves everywhere. Parts of Western Europe, such as the Schilderswijk district in The Hague, the Molenbeek borough in Brussels, the banlieues [suburbs] of Paris, Birmingham in Britain, the Rosengård area in Malmö, Sweden, and many other neighborhoods, have become hotbeds of Islamic subversion.
Islam’s totalitarian nature cannot be denied. The command to murder and terrorize non-Muslims is in the Koran. Islam’s prophet Muhammad was a mass murderer and a pedophile. Those who leave Islam supposedly deserve death. And everyone who criticizes Islam and exposes what it actually says, ends up like me: on an Islamic death list…

Merkel’s partners in the outgoing government, the center-left Social Democrats, initially refused to consider a repeat but said Friday they’re open to holding talks.

Italy’s 5 Star Demand International Observers for Upcoming Election
ITALY’S 5 Star Movement has demanded international observers monitor next year’s election campaign after its supporters were accused of spreading ‘fake news’.
The Eurosceptic party, led by Luigi Di Maio, made the demand after the ruling Democratic Party (PD) accused 5-Star supporters of using interlinked internet accounts to spread misinformation in an attempt to smear the centre-left government.
Mr Di Maio, who was elected 5 Star leader in September, said his party was often misrepresented by the traditional media and said the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) should oversee the forthcoming election.
He said in a Facebook message: “The problem of fake news exists and we think it is necessary to have the OSCE monitor news and political debate during the election campaign.”

Mutti Merkel’s ‘Diversity Barriers’ Come to England
British city Hull has followed the growing European trend of dressing up anti-terror barriers as fun Christmas decorations in an effort to hide the “ugly barriers”, as the continent entrenches itself against a spate of radical Islamist terror attacks.
Because cast reinforced concrete has not traditionally been a recognised part of the Western Christmas aesthetic, many local authorities across Europe have taken steps to soften the visual impact of the anti-vehicle barriers, now made necessary to protect large gatherings of people from terror attacks.
While large gatherings of people of all kinds have been targeted by terrorists in recent years across Europe, the December 2016 attack against the Berlin Christmas market has provoked a particularly visible response after asylum seeker Anis Amri murdered a Polish lorry driver, hijacked his vehicle, and drove into the Christmas Celebration, killing 11.

Who are the Rothschilds, how rich are they exactly, and how much power do they wield in society and transatlantic and world affairs and finance? These are not easy questions to answer, and we may never know the real extent of the nature of these power networks, but we can tell a lot simply by examining the behavior and attitudes of this elite dynasty. This film offers a quasi behind-the-scenes, contemporary look at the British family seat of this enduring oligarchy and how they are situated (from a mainstream public perspective anyway) within the ruling hierarchy.

Caroline Glick: Portents of a Quagmire in Syria
Is the war in Syria won?
The images broadcast this week from Sochi, the Russian vacation town on the Black Sea coast, were pictures of victory — for the bad guys.
On Tuesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin stood beside his Syrian client, President Bashar Assad, who licked Putin’s boots, as well he should have.
Assad owes his regime and his life to Putin.
The next day, Putin was joined by his allies — the presidents of Iran and Turkey.
Hassan Rouhani and Recep Tayyip Erdogan made the pilgrimage to Sochi to stand at Putin’s side and declare victory in the war and dedicate themselves to the cause of “peace and reconciliation” in post-war Syria.
To achieve their lofty goals of peace and reconciliation, Putin and his partners declared that, in the near future, Sochi will be the sight of a peace conference where all the relevant factions in Syria will be represented. The parley they described is set to take place parallel to — and one assumes at the expense of — the sixth round of Syrian reconciliation talks scheduled to take place under UN auspices next week in Geneva.
Several Israeli commentators viewed Putin’s Sochi talks precisely as he wished them to…

Christians Face Genocide in Middle East
Trump administration looks to bypass UN in bringing aid
Christians are the target of genocide in the Middle East, where they face enslavement, rape, murder, and violence under the rule of Islamic extremists. When trying to flee, they face continuing threats to their lives in Europe’s migrant camps.
In just over 10 years, the Christian populations in Iraq and Syria have been decimated, according to research compiled in the book “The Persecution and Genocide of Christians in the Middle East,” edited by Ronald J. Rychlak and Jane F. Adolphe.
It states that the population of close to 1.4 million Christians in Iraq prior to the 2003 U.S. invasion has been reduced to an estimated 250,000, most of whom are internally displaced and living as refugees. Of the close to 2 million Christians who once lived in Syria, between 1 million and 1.5 million are living as refugees, mainly in Jordan, Lebanon, and Turkey, where Christians have no resettlement rights.
[Comment: These are the real refugees. But they do not fit into the Kalergi plan of nation destabilization.]

Merkel Pressured to Keep Doors Open for Migrants to Stay in Power
German Chancellor Angela Merkel is determined to avoid a snap election by seeking another “grand coalition” with the Social Democrats (SPD), but she might have to scrap a proposed cap on immigration to secure her fourth term in office.
Merkel’s decision to open the doors to migrants has shaken up German politics during the fall. Her party, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), suffered its worst election result since the 1940s in September after some voters turned to anti-immigration party the Alternative for Germany (AfD) in protest of Merkel’s migrant policies. The chancellor is now struggling to form a new government because potential coalition partners disagree with her plans to put a cap on the annual immigration level.

An Ethiopian imam seeking asylum in Switzerland has been found guilty of inciting violence, local media report. The imam called for the killing and burning of Muslims who refused to join communal prayers, and also distributed execution photos online.
The asylum-seeking imam expressed the sentiments during Friday prayers at An’Nur mosque in the town of Winterthur in October 2016, 20 Minutes reported. “In his homily of Oct. 21, 2016, in the An’Nur Mosque, he is accused among other things of calling for expelling Muslims who do not pray in the community, and even burning them and killing them in their homes if they still refuse,” prosecutors said in a statement in August.
The 25-year-old claimed that he did not speak Arabic well and had delivered a prepared sermon without understanding what he was saying. However, the court ruled otherwise, finding him guilty of three counts of public incitement to crime and violence, multiple depictions of violence, and working without a permit.

“Reforming” The Church of Sweden
As the other key players in Swedish society have adapted to the rise of Islam within the country’s borders, so has the Church of Sweden. The church’s primate — its equivalent of the Pope or Archbishop of Canterbury — is a 62-year-old woman named Antje Jackelén, who holds the title of Archbishop of Uppsala. Popes and archbishops traditionally have official mottoes. Pope Francis’s motto is “Miserando atque eligendo” (“mercy and choice”). It was his motto as Archbishop of Buenos Aires, and he chose to retain it upon his elevation to the papacy. If you look at Jackelén’s Wikipedia page, you will see that her motto is “God is greater.” In Swedish, it is “Gud är större.”
In Arabic, it is “Allahu akbar,” the words that muezzins in mosques around the world shout from the tops of their minarets. These are also, of course, the last words that are heard by many people around the world before they are blown to bits by suicide bombers or run over by jihadists at the wheels of trucks. Some might argue, to be sure, that the Muslim deity is different from the God of Christianity, but Jackelén is not one of them: she has said explicitly that the two deities are one and the same…
For anyone who had any doubts, it has since become clear that the Jackelén’s reason for picking her motto are exactly what they always seemed to be. Recognizing that the concept of Jesus Christ as Savior is a major impediment to what may euphemistically be referred to as her ambitious interfaith efforts, she has made a point of downplaying the importance of Jesus and of stating that, when it comes to the question of salvation, Jesus does not really matter…
As head of the Church of Sweden, Jackelén has not let her power go to waste. She has just finished overseeing an extensive revision of the church’s manual, its equivalent of the Anglicans’ Book of Common Prayer. The main goal was to make the language more “inclusive” — which meant, among other things, removing references to God as “He” or “the Lord.” As Jesus Christ was indisputably male, the revision also involved pushing God the Son into the background as much as possible.

Canada Couple Denied Adoption Because They Oppose Homosexuality
An evangelical Christian couple in Alberta, Canada, has taken the provincial government to court, charging that they were denied the right to adopt a child because of their conviction that homosexual behavior is a sin.
As reported by Canada’s National Post, the unnamed couple said that they had initially received a recommendation to adopt, with a Catholic Social Services worker whom the couple had worked with saying in her report that she was “pleased” to recommend them for adoption. The report noted that the couple was employed, owned their own home, and had a happy and healthy family and community network. The couple’s hope was to adopt a child, or up to three siblings between the ages of seven and 17.
However, the report also recommended that a “homosexual child” not be placed with the couple, because of their religious opposition to that lifestyle. That information prompted the Alberta Child and Family Services department to put the brakes on the couple’s application, and to call for further home study.
According to Canada’s Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, a conservative legal organization that is representing the couple, when it was found that the couple were evangelical Christians with biblical views on marriage and sexuality, the door for adoption quickly closed on them.
In March 2017, Catholic Social Services advised the couple “that it was reversing its recommendation that they be approved for adoption,” related the Justice Centre in a press release on the case. “The rejection letter enclosed a revised Home Study Report that stated the couple should not be approved as adoptive parents because they would be unable to ‘help’ a child who ‘has sexual identity issues.’ The rejection letter did not explain how or why the couple would be unable to ‘help’ a child that they valued, loved and respected. The couple asked Catholic Social Services to reconsider their decision, but were refused.”

The professor began her argument saying she learned that “the white-nuclear family is one of the most powerful forces supporting white supremacy,” adding that that families “reproducing white children” are “part of the problem” as they facilitate white supremacy in the country, Campus Reform reported.

Racial Demonization for Profit and Power
he words “white privilege” are slung as an epithet by liberals of all races in order to undermine Western culture, make way for Marxism, and cause racial division.
“The white race is the cancer of human history,” wrote novelist Susan Sontag in 1967. Her position was no surprise. She was merely expressing the common leftist lament that white people birthed the civilization they hate, Western civilization. Precisely two decades later, for instance, race hustler Jesse Jackson, characterizing Stanford University’s Western culture course as too white and male, led the campus chant, “Hey hey, ho ho, Western culture’s got to go.” Yet this is nothing compared to more recent times, as the demonization of whites has reached a fever pitch with a phenomenon I have dubbed “caucaphobia.”
Sontag made no bones about why she was indicting whites, as the context of her statement makes clear. To wit: “If America is the culmination of Western white civilization, as everyone from the Left to the Right declares, then there must be something terribly wrong with Western white civilization… The white race is the cancer of human history; it is the white race and it alone — its ideologies and inventions — which eradicates autonomous civilizations wherever it spreads, which has upset the ecological balance of the planet, which now threatens the very existence of life itself.”

Merkel will make any Faustian deal to stay in power. It’s who she is.

Also, well done to Myanmar for only allowing Soros’ pet Pope 15 minutes to whine about the Rohingya.
Mr Sailer’s “essay” is only a link to Politico, here:
https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/11/26/america-running-out-imams-215867?lo=ap_b1
This is a complicated subject, one with too many unintended consequences to be able to speculate much. I’d like to see what The Middle East Forum thinks. They have the only longitudinal, in-house observations of mosques which permit useful conclusions. Imagine going undercover for two years to conduct this study?? Whew.
Politico, on the other hand, is less than smart or knowledgeable – e.g., the contention that keeping imams from terrorist countries out of here is somehow dangerous because it will cause a backlash? Politico might as well be a CAIR mouthpiece in this essay.
See the work done by MEF. Phenomenal:

I concur the Politico article is awful – I felt my IQ dropping rapidly as I attempted to read it.
Here is the money paragraph from the MEF link you supplied:
“Unfortunately, the results of the current survey strongly suggest that Islam—as it is generally practiced in mosques across the United States—continues to manifest a resistance to the kind of tolerant religious and legal framework that would allow its followers to make a sincere affirmation of liberal citizenship. This survey provides empirical support for the view that mosques across America, as institutional and social settings for mosque-going Muslims, are at least resistant to social cooperation with non-Muslims. Indeed, the overwhelming majority of mosques surveyed promoted literature supportive of violent jihad and a significant number invited speakers known to have promoted violent jihad and other behaviors that are inconsistent with a reasonable construct of liberal citizenship.”
I’ve been linking to that study since it first came out in 2011. I was blown away not only with the bizarre (but consistent) behaviors they correlated with Islam’s inherently murderous DNA, but even more so by the courage of the men who went in to record those behaviors. It’s been almost seven years now and it hasn’t stale-dated.
You’re the first one to ever respond to my repeated attempts to draw attention to this karmic work. Thank you.
Dymphna,
I am very disappointed to hear I am the first to take an interest in this study.
I am an engineer by education, so the statistical data appeals to those sensibilities.
I also admire the bravery of those who collected the data. Even in the US they could have been professionally ruined, maimed, or even disappeared if the true purpose of their mosque visits had been discovered.
