Readers and friends, over the weekend, we switched servers for DebbieSchlussel.com site. Because of the switchover, some of your comments are missing, and you have my apologies. No, you are not banned and your comment hasn’t been deleted. It’s just the non-magic of technology.

If you left a comment from 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday to 5:00 a.m., this morning (Sunday), your comment did not switch over. We tried to copy and save most of these comments and we’ll re-enter them to the best of our abilities (the time stamp won’t match when you first put it up, but we’ll make a note within the comment stating the actual time the comment was posted before the switchover). Or you can choose to re-enter it.

Thanks for your understanding. Again, my apologies for the inconvenience.

And, of course, please go ahead and comment, as the switchover is complete and your comment will appear.

I can’t really recommend any of the new releases at the box office, this weekend.  And, oddly, they are so bad that the Matt Damon lefty anti-war movie is the best of the bunch.  But that’s relative . . . a big fat relative.

*  “Green Zone“:  This is yet another example of what I always decry in the movies–fiction presented as fact, as history.  Revisionism is what it is.  Some things in it–about  U.S. bungling in Iraq when we first went to war there–are accurate.  Others are just flat-out fraud.  The movie is based on the book, “Imperial Life in the Emerald City: Inside Iraq’s Green Zone,” by Rajiv Chandrasekaran. But those who’ve read the book told me it’s not like the book at all. Nor is it entirely like the War in Iraq at all.

Why did ICE chief John Morton (or as ICE agents universally and appropriately call him, John MORON) share the stage with an open anti-Semite and America hater?

Moron: Immigration Chief John Morton Hangs w/ Jew-Hating US-Hater Zahi Hawass

Yesterday, in a ceremony he helped organize, Moron–the Obama do-nothing preppie–shared the stage and gushed over Egyptian Secretary General of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities, who has a history of openly anti-Jewish statements, such as this:

They [the Jews] went to America and took control of its economy. They have a plan. . . .  they control the entire world.

Watch the video of that comment.

You can see a shot of Moron laughing onstage with Hawass here, and another very brief shot of Moron with Hawass in this local news report.

Hawass has a history of similar, vile anti-Semitic statements, not to mention statements he made against Americans in Conde Nast Traveler and Travel & Leisure magazines.  ICE agents aren’t happy, but also aren’t surprised, that their moronic boss with a matching surname doesn’t have any qualms about hanging with Jew- and America-haters.

Don’t watch this while eating lunch, as it’s kind of graphic.  But I’m glad ABC News and the normally execrable Diane Sawyer had the guts to do it.  Sadly, they didn’t have the guts to mention the I- or M-words, Islam and Muslim, as the cause here (and they repeated the baloney about how Mohammed wouldn’t do this when he definitely would and did).  What Muslims did to this young girl, Bebe, is beyond outrageous and disgusting. Not only did they force her to marry at age twelve, but look at what her husband, Talib, did to her.

The video is important because its shows us the barbarism of Islam and how America rescues the religion’s victims. It shows us the typical, unwavering generosity and magnanimity of America’s military and individual American citizens, who volunteered to make this young woman’s life better and try to correct what Islamic savage beasts did to her.  (And it also shows how the JOOOS rescue them. This secret shelter for women is run by a Jewish American woman, Esther Hyneman, along with an Afghan woman, Manizha.)

So, all of the counterterrorism and national security world is abuzz with yesterday’s story about Sharif Mobley–a Muslim, American-born U.S. citizen and yet another Al-Qaeda terrorist wanted for several acts of terrorism, including murder.  But his story is really same ol’, same ol’.

Same Old Song & Dance:

Qaeda Terrorist Sharif Mobley & Aerosmith Have Something in Common

Yup, it’s the same old story.  American-born kid either is Muslim or converts to it.  (In this case, Mobley is of Somalian heritage, and how many times have I warned you about the Somalian extremist Muslim criminal wave and associated problems here in America?) Then, he’s so fervent in his beliefs that he tries to convert classmates.  But we look the other way because, ya know, Islam is a “Religion of Peace.”  And we can’t be “bigots” by discriminating or disturbing our sanguine radar with any concern.  So, he gets a job working at U.S. nuclear plant.  Because, hey, we can’t refuse work or even more carefully scrutinize a Muslim or a guy named Sharif who tried to convert high school classmates to Islam in high school.  No, that would violate federal civil rights laws, which–as we all know–trump national security concerns in this post-9/11, head-in-the-sand world.

Washington, DC’s Coolidge High School is bragging–to a lot of press gushing–about its choice of a woman, Natalie Randolph, to coach its boys’ football team. But the fact that a woman will be the varsity head coach of high school boys is an utter disappointment, not cause for celebration.

Real Life . . .

Male Role Model?: Natalie Randolph Coaches DC Boys High School Gridiron

. . . Is Nothing Like Hollywood Fantasy

Nearly nine years ago, I wrote about Geraldine Fuhr, a female suburban Detroit high school basketball coach, who sued in federal court and won the right to coach the high school boy’s basketball team.  She was a terrible coach, who coached the girls’ basketball team, and coaching the boys didn’t involve a change in pay.  It involved asserting feminist in-your-face tactics.

After Fuhr won the job, the boys team at Hazel Park High School lost more and more games under her coaching, proving my point–a point I correctly predicted when I debated the issue on ESPN’s “Outside the Lines,” just after 9/11:  that boys not only won’t win for female coaches, whom they simply don’t respect as much, but that female coaches deprive boys of  what–especially today with so many single-mother dominant housholds–will probably be their only male role model growing up. Here’s just part of what I said on ESPN (read the whole transcript):

The problem is that boys in today’s society have less and less opportunities to be boys and to learn how to be men. And to have bastions of maleness, and sports was one of those last bastions. But now we have this agenda of feminist groups and feminists coaches wanting to coach men. They are going to try to take that away, too.

Is it really a sad sign of the bad economic times that a Missouri state legislator introduced a bill to circumvent federal rules barring horsemeat slaughter?  Yes and no.

Horses – The New “Other White Meat”?

I’ve never understood the U.S. prohibition on slaughtering horses for human consumption.  As an observant Jew, horses aren’t kosher.  So, I’d never eat them even if I could.  Still, while the thought of eating horses disgusts me–I love horseback riding and, because of that, have an affinity for the animal–why are horses any more special than any other animal we slaughter and eat?

Is horsemeat any less healthy than a steak  or chicken?  Not being a nutritionist or dietitian, I have no idea.  I’d never eat dog or cat or snake (and none of those are kosher, so even if I wanted to, my religion prohibits it).  But if you believe–as I do–that animals are here to serve man, that we can ride them, eat them, and use them for leather, fur, and feathers, then why are horses any more sacred than other living beings to which we do these things and gain these materials for our use?

Longtime readers know about Michigan Rep. Rashida Harbi Tlaib, the Palestinian Michigan legislator and liberal Democrat who was touted as the first Muslim woman elected to the Michigan House.  She’s also a rabid Israel-hater and supporter of illegal aliens, who got into office because she was hired and tirelessly promoted by her self-hating Jewish predecessor.

Rashida Tlaib: Poster Child for Muslim Election Fraud

As an employee at Arab Muslim welfare agency, ACCESS–the Arab Community Center for Economic and Social Services, she helped illegal aliens game the system and get into  and remain on U.S. soil.  Yes, she aided and abetted illegal aliens in violating immigration laws.  Instead of being in the legislature, the licensed attorney should be behind bars.  But, instead, she was touted and lauded all over the place.  As I exposed on this site, she lied to the Detroit Free Press, claiming her grandfather was shot by the Israelis.  And the Freep reported it as truth, but was forced to amend the story when you–loyal readers–contacted the paper in droves.

Now, Tlaib’s own father has provided another reason why she should be behind bars. She’s also the first Muslim woman elected to the Michigan Legislature to commit either election or tax fraud.

As you likely know, liberal Democrat Congressman Eric Massa, who resigned last week, first said it was because of cancer, then because he had a shower scene with Rahm Emanuel, and now admits he “tickled” rather than groped male staffers.  Because, you know, tickling male staffers until they can’t breathe and jumping on top of them is normal behavior for any boss.  And since it is, here are a few pointers and guidelines for the former Congressman and others who choose to emulate him.  Tickle v. Grope, that is the question . . .

Was TSA employee Douglas James Duchak working for Islamic terrorists?

It’s a major national security breach.  But it’s getting almost no media coverage outside of Colorado and a few techie sites.

In October, Duchak, a TSA analyst in Colorado Springs, sent a virus into federal government computers to disable the databases containing information about terrorists–specifically, the no-fly list–and U. S. Marshal warrants.  Why did he do this?  Well, a week earlier, he learned his TSA employment was being terminated.  But that could be a red herring.  You don’t try to disable these systems and risk your freedom, just because you lost your job.  Or would you?

It sounds like Duchak may have been working for someone.  If so, the question is, for whom?  Obviously the feds believe some sort of terrorist group may be involved or the FBI–the lead agency investigating terrorism–wouldn’t be on the case.  And, it sounds to me, like Duchak was trying to allow a terrorist or terrorists for whom there may have been an arrest warrant, to fly into the U.S. and needed to do it before his job ended.  If so, who was the terrorist(s)?  And if there wasn’t one, why else would Duchak specifically target those databases and risk going to jail?  He was surely going to be caught, as he was.  Is it really possible that he was just a disgruntled employee who was notified a week earlier that his job would be terminated, and decided to sabotage the system?  I don’t think so.

Earlier this week, Duchak was indicted.  Read the indictment here.  The indictment is brief and says very little.  And I believe there’s a lot to this story we’re not being told.
