Islamist elements affiliated with Al Qaeda have had this summer’s Olympics games in Beijing clearly in the crosshairs for some time. 

Further evidence of this emerged this weekendin the form of a video posted on the internet from the Turkistan Islamic Party (also known as ETIM or the East Turkistan Islamic Movement) Ihreatening the 2008 Olympics Games in Beijing.  The video features the  Commander of the Turkistan Islamic Party, Sayfallah, making very specific threats against the  XXIX Olympiad.

Sayfallah states that his group is warning China one more time, threatening to attack key points related to the Olympics Games.  He explicitly states that the group plans to attack Chinese cities using previously unused methods.   

Sayfallah issued a stern warning:

“This is our last warning to China and the rest of the world.  The viewers and athletes, especially those who are Muslim, who plan to go to the Olympics should change their plans and not go to China.   The Turkistan Islamic Party plans military attacks on people, offices, arenas, and other activities that are connected to the Chinese Olympic Games.”

He claimed the group had undergone special training and has already begun it’s operations against China,  including bomb attacks  two busses in Shanghai in May and three busses last week in Yunnan.  He also took credit for an attack on police forces in Wenzhou with an explosives-laden tractor and the attack with explosives on a plastics factory.

Chinese authorities have recognized for some time the threat from the organization, and has actively prepared for terror attacks against the Games.

Republican Members of Congress will meet on the House Floor today to continue talking about rising energy costs and gas prices. The GOP ask that Speaker Pelosi reconvene the House of Representatives in order to vote on the American Energy Act.

NY Times: This morning, a Boston-born performance artist, Yazmany Arboleda, tried to set up a provocative art exhibition in a vacant storefront on West 40th Street in Midtown Manhattan with the title, “The Assassination of Hillary Clinton/The Assassination of Barack Obama,” in neatly stenciled letters on the plate glass windows at street level. By 9:30 a.m., New York City police detectives and Secret Service agents had shut down the exhibition, and building workers quickly covered over the inflammatory title with large sheets of brown paper and blue masking tape. (See “Related Links” for more images from each of the exhibits.)

An article in today’s Jerusalem Post about the President’s position on Iran that quotes unnamed sources — quoting unnamed sources — is not worth the paper it’s written on.

Let me respond by reaffirming the policy of the Administration: We, along with our international allies who want peace in the Middle East, remain opposed to Iran’s ambitions to obtain a nuclear weapon. To that end, we are working to bring tough diplomatic and economic pressure on the Iranians to get them to change their behavior and to halt their uranium enrichment program.

As the President has said, no president of the United States should ever take options off the table, but our preference and our actions for dealing with this matter remain through peaceful diplomatic means. Nothing has changed in that regard.

 What a disgusting ad.  I am not an Obama supporter but this is horrible

WELCOME TO TENNESSEE MRS. BARACK OBAMA!

Tennessee Democrats and fringe liberals raised money for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign this week in Nashville with Michelle Obama serving as the featured guest. Michelle Obama seeks to be the First Lady of the United States of America. Michelle Obama revealed her belief that America is less than the great country of freedom and opportunity that it is when she stated in February of this year that this is “the first time in my adult life” she was proud of America.

Mrs. Obama obviously shares the same sense of moral and intellectual superiority with her husband who chooses not to wear a flag lapel pin because it has “became a substitute for, I think, true patriotism, which is speaking out on issues that are of importance to our national security.”

Tennessee voters welcomed Michelle Obama, representing her husband’s campaign, by sharing some memories, beliefs and values that have made them “proud of America” over the years - view video. Tennessee radio stations also honored requests that Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the U.S.A.” be played.

Be assured: the Republican values of faith, family and freedom are the priority of this state Republican Party that exists because of the great people of Tennessee.

“Those (Arab) kings and leaders sacrificed Palestine and Al-Aqsa to keep their crowns. … But we will not be relieved of this responsibility,” bin Laden said, referring to Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem’s Old City, one of Islam’s holiest sites.

Banners claim that Bin Laden will issue a “strong warning” to Muslims is  imminent.  I will continue to monitor and will have the audio or video once it is out

Republican Mike Huckabee responded to an offstage noise during his speech to the National Rifle Association by suggesting it was Barack Obama diving to the floor because someone had aimed a gun at him. Hearing a loud noise and interrupting his speech, Huckabee said: “That was Barack Obama. He just tripped off a chair. He’s getting ready to speak and somebody aimed a gun at him and he—he dove for the floor.”

 John McCain responded to the remarks Barack Obama made about him and his national security policies at an event in Watertown, South Dakota.

“The causes of conflict in the sixtieth anniversary of the establishment of the state of Israeli occupation”

Name of God the Merciful

To the peoples of Western general, peace be upon those who follow Huda
After ..

This newly you to know one of the main causes of the conflict between our civilization and our civilization, namely the Palestinian issue.

And that this conflict escalates under existing policies, and here I confirm that the Palestinian issue is the core issue of my first.

Hence it was an important factor in providing early age and to provide the Liberal nineteen great sense of Victory oppressed, and to punish the Jewish oppressors and their associates.

Then followed injustice in Lebanon and other Hence the ten events atheist and feet and its aftermath, and draw your attention here and tell you:

The fair-minded people in front of you and wishing to know the truth regarding the Palestinian issue a valuable opportunity for them Jews celebrating with Western leaders over the sixtieth anniversary of the establishment of their state.

This ceremony has many important indications are talking about three of them briefly:

I / that this event clearly demonstrates that sixty years ago were not of the State of Israel, but there have been usurped the land of Palestine by force of arms and the evidence on the health of our land of Palestine claimed that Israelis are invaders and occupiers must fight them.

II / that this event showed that most of the media, has abandoned its objectivity and professionalism in this case and Machabhaa, and the charge by deception through sixty years, my heart and showed you the facts Jewish invaders occupiers of our land as the victim.

On the other hand, highlighted the oppressed Palestinian land claim as executioners terrorists unjustly.

Here shows the seriousness of the major media, which played the role of the wizards at distorting facts and misleading public opinion industry enables it to market Western nations to enter the unjust war against us unjustly.

It also emerged that clear in the invasion of Iraq after the leader of the lies promoted to the White House and those with him, as well as the influence of the Zionist lobby emerged in the media where pictures of things other than reality to serve the Israelis.

III / Western leaders that the participation of Jews in this celebration emphasizes that the West supported this brutal occupation of the Jewish country, and they stand against us in a ditch Israelis have confirmed that virtually send their forces to southern Lebanon in support of the Jews.

Politicians and the West are still living in medieval mentality of the injustice of others to occupy their land, killing heat, and plundering their wealth, and this was confirmed by Bush and Blair clearly and clarity in the invasion of Iraq in the theft of its oil and humiliate its people.

Because Britain has enabled the Jewish occupation of Palestine through the Balfour Declaration, and because the United Nations had decided to give the Jews most of Palestine, these decisions do not consider it does not mean that where the king I do not deserve.

Does the United Nations only a tool for peace and negotiations, which began sixty years ago did not end only for the foolish and deceptive, including promises of Bush’s State of bear fuller meaning, but the dates Arqhob, with the duty of jihad to liberate all Palestine.
After ..

We understand that the owners of abnormal hearts tend to attack the rights of others, and taking their money unjustly fraud or armed robbery, and those that arrived to power the calamity magnify and multiply as the difference between the power of the state and the strength of the armed gang.

As in the case today, terrorism and armed robbery are blameworthy by the commander of the strongest military machine known to mankind, therefore, the disaster was not country or regional but a global catastrophe.

Despite the wars against the scourge of diamonds and huge, but we patience in the war ratified at the meeting in fighting the aggressors.

But it is the nausea that after all this killing, destruction, looting and debasement Stucc stand to talk about values, which is not likely it gathered between injustice.

I insisted on the looting and robbery, you will find worse, little of the assault and stopped lying talk about values.

I shall give examples of the reality of Palestine over the case and also shows obvious falsehood of the values of double standards in one issue, a feature of Stucc You Palestinian organizations classified as terrorist organizations have been punished and boycott On the other hand, when the Israeli killing of Medenine exercising a right of women and children, both as a car bomb in Jaffa And Haifa and elsewhere.

Or what is worse than that when the administration of the Zionist organizations massacre of Palestinian villagers and displaced Reetabhm to plunder their land, what was your position?

This is working with Begin and understand what Begin president of one of these Zionist organizations is unfair Begin butcher Deir Yassin massacre, Begin is Baqer pregnant women in the massacre of Deir Yassin.

Is there a more horrible terrorism and this summit is not the most heinous crime and bottom debasement? Can the man to kill a village to know the fighting would not have it as well as Ibaqr that her stomach, let alone being pregnant.

The vision of such a horrible crime Chiba horror of warheads can hardly believe that the documents not confirmed by the Israelis but it is proud of it and say it not for the massacre of Deir Yassin escaped with the Palestinians from their land and free us.

What was the position of the West Begin? Instead of being punished for his crimes that have been recognized as Prime Minister, then not only that but awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
Any injustice and aggression ..
Any licences innocent blood ..
What a cruel and brutal ..

Did not stop after the massacres of Deir Yassin, but was followed and Gaza massacre Here’s your live today and is before the eyes of the world.

And a half million people under siege are exposed to the deadly slow death the result of poor food and medicine scarce.

Even the Governor of Egypt acquires the required provisions of the siege of the parties, to stifle and most vulnerable women and children.

Venbeni How is the difference between the value in Jahlitkm contemporary values and Hamann in ignorance is the first pharaoh to advocate the killing of children of the Israelites in Egypt.

The stamp does not blame people may defend their usual practice and policy of Pharaoh unjust, and God willing we will continue fighting against the Israelis and their allies get their rights and equitable Mazomin of the creatures.

Will not abandon one inch of Palestine, God willing, as long as the Muslim land sincere one.

Peace be upon those who follow guidance.

The Saudi’s said no more oil but now we give them nuclear power. Hello!!!! 

Today, President Bush met with King Abdallah to commemorate the 75th anniversary of formal diplomatic relations between the United States and Saudi Arabia. Since 1933, these two nations have enjoyed formal relations. In 1945, during the waning months of World War II, King Abdallah’s father – King Abd al-Aziz – met with President Franklin Delano Roosevelt aboard the U.S.S. Quincy in the Red Sea, and the two leaders chose to deepen the strategic relationship between the two countries. The President’s visit today builds on this tradition of friendship and close cooperation.

• It is in the spirit of that meeting that the United States and Saudi Arabia have completed four critical agreements to strengthen the protection of energy resources, enhance peaceful nuclear cooperation, broaden the fight against global terrorism, and bolster nonproliferation. These agreements further cement the longstanding U.S.-Saudi friendship and close cooperation to help bring peace and stability to the region and its people.

The United States And Saudi Arabia Will Work Together To Further Our Relationship

The Saudis bear a special responsibility for protecting key energy facilities of global importance and the world benefits from their abundant energy supplies. Our global economy depends greatly on Saudi Arabian energy. The U.S. has a keen interest in helping the Saudis protect their energy infrastructure against terrorism, as demonstrated by the unsuccessful terrorist attack against the Kingdom’s Abqaiq Plants in February 2006. To this end, the United States and Saudi Arabia have agreed to cooperate in safeguarding the Kingdom’s energy resources by protecting key infrastructure, enhancing Saudi border security, and meeting Saudi Arabia’s expanding energy needs in an environmentally responsible manner.

1. Saudi Arabia will join the 70 partner nations of the Global Initiative to Combat Nuclear Terrorism. As a partner in this multilateral initiative, Saudi Arabia will:
   • Enhance its accountability and physical protection of nuclear systems
   • Advance its capability to search for and confiscate unlawfully held nuclear material
   • Improve its ability to detect nuclear material to prevent illicit trafficking
   • Enhance its means to secure civilian nuclear facilities
   • Deny safe havens and economic resources to terrorists
   • Create legal frameworks to enforce criminal liability for terrorists
   • Improve its response and mitigation capabilities in the event of a terrorist attack
   • Promote information sharing to suppress acts of nuclear terrorism
2. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will also join more than 85 states participating in the Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI). The PSI is a response to the growing challenge posed by the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, their delivery vehicles, and related materials worldwide. PSI participants will now include Saudi Arabia and all states that border it.
3. The U.S. will help the Saudis develop both human and infrastructure resources in accordance with International Atomic Energy Agency guidance and standards.
   • In order to ensure a smooth supply of energy to the world, Saudi Arabia must be able to effectively safeguard its borders and coasts, and ensure consistent supplies of water and power to its citizens.
   • Under the Critical Infrastructure Protection agreement, the two nations have agreed to establish a Joint Commission on Infrastructure and Border Protection to facilitate training, the exchange of experts and specialized knowledge, and other support services as needed.
   • The U.S. and Saudi Arabia will also conclude a security agreement that will allow for broadened cooperation between the Saudi Ministry of Interior and the U.S. Government.
4. The U.S. and Saudi Arabia will sign a Memorandum of Understanding in the area of peaceful civil nuclear energy cooperation. This agreement will pave the way for Saudi Arabia’s access to safe, reliable fuel sources for energy reactors and demonstrate Saudi leadership as a positive non-proliferation model for the region.
   • The United States will assist the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to develop civilian nuclear power for use in medicine, industry, and power generation.
   • The Government of the United States and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will establish a comprehensive framework for cooperation in the development of environmentally sustainable, safe, and secure civilian nuclear energy through a series of complementary agreements.

You have got to be kidding me!!!! US agrees to help Saudi Arabia develop civilian nuclear program. What has the Saudi’s done for us besides bleed us dry with their oil money.  Why do we keep helping these people. They just told us they will not help bring down oil but now we are going to help them with nuke power.

Speaking before an audience in Watertown, South Dakota, Barack Obama responded to President Bush’s extreme attacks yesterday.  How much whining can there be? I will keep asking that question.

Obama slams Bush on remarks in Israel.  Obama said he thought he could not be surprised from something Bush said.  He also slammed McCain for taking Bush’s side. ” I want to be clear if McCain and Bush want to have a debate that is a debate I will win anywhere and anytime”. “Both McCain and Bush have a lot to answer for” Obama said
