Many people have e-mailed asking for my opinion on the emerging Operation Able Danger story–in which army intelligence personnel were barred from notifying the FBI about Mohammed Atta.
While I agree that the Pentagon lawyers who stopped the Able Danger operatives from notifying the FBI are culpable, and their behavior is an outrage, my take is different from most conservative commentators.
I really don’t think the FBI would have acted on the information. Instead, today, we’d be sweeping under the rug yet more ineptitude by the, unfortunately, “lead agency” in the War on Terror.
Let’s look at what the FBI has done with other similar information they received before and, even worse, AFTER 9/11. Let’s look at what the agency and its sleazy allies have done to harm brave men who did what the Able Danger men did not–men like FBI , who warned the FBI to do something about the Al-Qaeda funding network.
Here’s the FBI record:

Barry Manilow has announced a new line of jewelry, called “M”. The cheesy line, available on his website, features assorted rings, crystal earrings, etc. No word on whether they are meant for women . . . or men.
Speaking of pinky rings . . .
In related news, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Special Agent in Charge, , was celebrating the bit of press his agency got for stopping a prison guard from smuggling Chinese illegals across the Ambassador Bridge into Detroit from Windsor, Canada. The story might not be true, though, since it’s written by Abu Moskowitz crony and (who makes up stories out of whole-cloth, Jayson-Blair style).
Why is it always the Chinese and Latinos, and NEVER, Muslims and Arabs–many of whom are in Detroit illegally–in the heart of Islamic America?
Maybe it has something to do with Moskowitz’s new clothing line for Lilliputian “former” terrorists/FBI award revokees/marriage fraud perpetrators. Check out this supermodel who has signed on for the fashion campaign:

“Former” PFLP terrorist/FBI Award revokee/Abu Moskowitz buddy models the “Hamadafat.”

My apologies to Barry Manilow if I offended him in any way for putting him in the same blogpost as Abu Moskowitz.

It’s not every day that I side with a murderer over a man who gave his life helping our troops in Iraq.
But this is one of those rare instances.
The controversy concerns Arlington National Cemetery and who should be buried there.
Russell Wayne Wagner was buried in Arlington with standard military honors on July 27th. He served in the Army from 1969 to 1972 and was honorably discharged. He, therefore, qualified for burial in the prestigious military final resting place.
But Wagner was a convicted murderer. He murdered Daniel and Wilda Davis, both in their 80s, at their home. His death was almost as dishonorable. Wagner died in prison in February of a heroin overdose.
The Davis’ son, Vernon, is mortified that Wagner is buried in Arlington. He wants Wagner’s ashes removed from the time-honored military cemetery.

For those of you paying attention to the stories about the new high priestess of the left, Cindy Sheehan a/k/a Jihad Cindy #2 (#1 is this Jihad Cindy, so named by me in 2001–a name adopted by freedom-loving Americans nationwide), you probably heard that she now has a public relations firm telling her when to cry and what to do. What you may not know is that Jihad Cindy #2’s high-priced San Francisco (it figures they’d be from there) PR firm is being funded by Ben Cohen of Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream.

Bad for America AND your body

Jihad Cindy #2: Bad for America AND her soon-to-be-ex-husband’s body

While anti-corporate Cohen long ago sold B&J to a large corporation, he is still reportedly one of the largest single stockholders in the ice cream’s owner Unilever. If you love America, you shouldn’t be buying B&J, anyway, because it routinely donates a percentage of its profits to far-left, anti-American groups, like ANSWER (which promotes Islamic terrorist groups). As I used to say at the beginning of my radio show, I don’t eat Ben & Jerry’s, and I don’t date guys who do, either.
Jihad Cindy #2 is yet another reason to turn away from B&J in the frozen foods aisle.

In Touch Magazine reports that “Sex & The City’s” aging Kim Cattrall, 48, is now “dating” (euphemism) actor Alexander Siddig, who played 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in “The Hamburg Cell” and one of Saladin’s soldiers in the pro-Islamist “” (which bombed in the theaters, earlier this summer).

Most used piece of equipment in the Infidel gym . . .
now used by the enemy.
But, sometimes, life imitates art. Siddig’s real name is Siddig El Fadil, and he has ties to the terror-sponsor government of Sudan (on the State Department Terrorist List). Siddig’s uncle, Sadiq Al-Mahdi, is a former Sudan Prime Minister, who helped oversee the wholesale Muslim torturous slaughter of Sudan’s Black Christians. Al-Mahdi is president of the Sudan’s Islamist Umma party and Imam of Sudan’s extremist Al-Ansar religious group. These groups made Bin Laden a welcome resident of the Sudan, from which he planned the bombings of the U.S. embassies in East Africa.
Siddig not only won’t denounce his terrorist uncle, he’s proud of him and put him in his Hollywood bio.
Of course, the mindless In Touch Magazine doesn’t tell you any of this. All the mag does is gush how both Cattrall and Siddig had roles on Star Trek. Big deal. Then it tells us how “sexy” this nephew of a terrorist leader is and describes “their obvious chemistry” as “electric.” I’d say it’s more like, “explosive,” as in the explosions of two embassies filled with innocent Americans, Kenyans, and Tanzanians–all planned in Sudan by Bin Laden.
Kim Cattrall, sleeping with the enemy.

Saying that anything in People is “dumb” is kind of redundant, but this story merits the redundancy: “Thirteen Women . . One Diamond Necklace . . . And a New Path to Friendship.”
13 self-absorbed female airheads from Ventura, California really need to grow up. People “reports” on a middle-aged, sagging group of women who desperately wish to relive their youth in a silly version of “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” (a movie silly enough in its own right).
The women spent $37,000 on a diamond necklace they collectively own and call “Jewelia,” after cook Julia Child (you can just hear her squeaky high pitch voice). That’s annoying enough. But wait, there’s more. They have two rules for the necklace: They must wear the necklace at least once while having sex, and whenever they go to Paris. The necklace, they say, makes them feel “energized, altruistic, and sexier.”
Time for them to grow up, and for me to vomit. BTW, this issue had more slobbering over on the cover. Enough said.

I’ve been on Bill O’Reilly’s FOX News Channel show, several times. But what he said, yesterday, on his nationally syndicated Westwood One Radio Show is inexcusable and wrong. O’Reilly said American Jews in Gaza don’t want to leave because “they want cheap land.”
Too bad. I thought O’Reilly might have had a better understanding of the situation. But the comment–in addition to reminding listeners of the old canard about Jews being “cheap”–is totally ignorant. It is and always has been far more expensive and risky to live in Israel–and especially Gaza–than to live in America.
American Jews–“cheap land” seekers or otherwise–lived in Gaza for purely ideological reasons. Surely, one would not move from a life of safety and comfort in America, to a risk-filled life surrounded by Islamic terrorists in Gaza, for “cheap land.” Would you move to a place where the odds are high that you or one of your family will be murdered or maimed–merely to get “cheap land”?
Generally, Bill O’Reilly has been very good in understanding issues relating to Israel and other countries–like our own–facing terrorism. This time he was wrong and it, hopefully, was an aberration.
