DHS Adviser: Muslim Brotherhood ‘Just Like Evangelicals’ Compares Bible Study to Islamist Group’s Indoctrination

If one reads this and walks away not in a complete rage, I will submit to you that the person is not an American.

How did We the People allow this?  How did we allow an Islamist/Pro Muslim Brotherhood representing our country?  This is an outrage and we should all be appalled.  Please contact your state representative and let him/her know that we will no longer stand for this.

Mohamed Elibiary[H/T WND]: Department of Homeland Security adviser Mohamed Elibiary has penned yet another controversial tweet, this time likening the Muslim Brotherhood to evangelical Christians and comparing the Brotherhood’s indoctrination to Bible study groups.

WND found that Elibiary tweeted: “Ignorant #Islamophobes (redundant I know) protested my saying #MB like #Evangelicals. Usra like Bible study grp.”

Elibiary Tweet

The “MB,” or Muslim Brotherhood, seeks a worldwide Islamic caliphate ruled by Shariah, or Islamic law, and teaches followers to help establish an Islamic state wherever they live.

Elibiary Tweet

An usra is a small teaching group devised by Brotherhood founder Hassan al-Banna to indoctrinate his followers. Brotherhood leaders form weekly meetings to teach the Islamist group’s methods and ideology.

The Muslim Brotherhood’s Ikhwanweb website describes usra as the “smallest unit of MB structure which represents the practical area of MB spiritual education and Tarbiah (training).”

Usra groups, compared to Bible study groups by Elibiary, are limited to active Muslim Brotherhood members.

There are three types of Muslim Brotherhood membership:

  • General membership: Provided to all Muslims accepted by Muslim Brotherhood district administration.
  • Practical membership: Muslims accepted by the district administration who agree to maintain specific Muslim Brotherhood duties as outlined by Al-Banna .
  • Jihad membership: Active members approved by the Brotherhood’s general executive bureau.

Elibiary did not return a WND request for comment.

It’s the latest Twitter controversy for Elibiary.

Earlier this month, Elibiary used his Twitter account to warn the tea party against attempting to change the U.S. political landscape through “Christianist Xenophobia.”

Elibiary further charged some “white identity/privilege types” have a problem with a “black president” and “brown Mexicans.”

Elibiary further provoked controversy when he used his Twitter profile to defend the Muslim Brotherhood while implying Egypt’s persecuted Christian minority incited against Islam.

Last month, Elibiary, who was appointed to the Department of Homeland Security Advisory Council by then-secretary Janet Napolitano in 2010, tweeted that he was reappointed and even promoted.

His Twitter handle comes with a disclaimer that the tweets are his own personal opinions and not those of any agency.

Obama Knew: 2010 Report Predicted 93 Million Americans Would Have Their Health Insurance Plans Cancelled

Obama Knew[H/T News Busters via Forbes]: To counter accusations that the President lied when he repeatedly told Americans they can keep their health insurance plans if they liked them, the administration has claimed that he was referring to the millions of people covered by their employers.

An article from Forbes Thursday thoroughly refutes this claiming that Obama officials back in 2010 predicted that 93 million Americans would have their plans cancelled as a result of ObamaCare including a vast amount of those with employer-sponsored plans:

If you read the Affordable Care Act when it was passed, you knew that it was dishonest for President Obama to claim that “if you like your plan, you can keep your plan,” as he did—and continues to do—on countless occasions. And we now know that the administration knew this all along. It turns out that in an obscure report buried in a June 2010 edition of the Federal Register, administration officials predicted massive disruption of the private insurance market. […]

[T]he administration’s commentary in the Federal Register did not only refer to the individual market, but also the market for employer-sponsored health insurance.

Section 1251 of the Affordable Care Act contains what’s called a “grandfather” provision that, in theory, allows people to keep their existing plans if they like them. But subsequent regulations from the Obama administration interpreted that provision so narrowly as to prevent most plans from gaining this protection.

“The Departments’ mid-range estimate is that 66 percent of small employer plans and 45 percent of large employer plans will relinquish their grandfather status by the end of 2013,” wrote the administration on page 34552. All in all, more than half of employer-sponsored plans will lose their “grandfather status” and get canceled. According to the Congressional Budget Office, 156 million Americans—more than half the population—was covered by employer-sponsored insurance in 2013.

As we found out from Lisa Myers’ report Monday, the administration predicted that between 47 and 60 percent of individually-purchased policies would be cancelled under ObamaCare.

Forbes did the math to calculate a total:

51 percent of the employer-based market plus 53.5 percent of the non-group market (the middle of the administration’s range) amounts to 93 million Americans.

What this means is that not only did Obama lie when he repeatedly told Americans that they can keep their plans if they like them, he also lied in Boston on Wednesday when he said he was referring to the majority of Americans coverered by their employers.

Will media report this?

Stay tuned?

Benghazi: U.S. Military Commandos SECRETLY Awarded Medals for Bravery on Night of Attack

Not sure why this is not getting more air play amongst conservative talk radio at least, but this deserves special mention.

[H/T WND Reported]: (WASHINGTON TIMES) Masked from public view, two of the U.S. military’s elite special operations commandos have been awarded medals for bravery for a mission that further undercuts the Obama administration’s original story about the Benghazi tragedy.

For months, administration officials have claimed no special operations forces were dispatched from outside Libya to Benghazi during the Sept. 11, 2012, al Qaeda terrorist attacks on the U.S. diplomatic mission and CIA annex because none was within range.

The Pentagon, under intense public criticism for not coming to the aid of besieged Americans, published an official timeline in November that carefully danced around the issue.

***

[H/T Hotair]: The official line from the White House, the State Department, and the Pentagon about the US response to the attack on our consulate in Benghazi has been that we didn’t have time to send in troops to fight the terrorists that were killing Americans. A new report from Washington Times reporter Rowan Scarborough undermines that argument, and once again raises the question about the lack of response. Two American commandos have received medals for fighting in Benghazi after volunteering to accompany five security contractors from Tripoli, and Scarborough wonders why the US didn’t mobilize other forces at the same time:

China in “Retaliation” Mode Against U.S., Moves Spy Ship to Hawaiian Waters

[H/T InfoWars]: China has sent a surveillance ship to Hawaiian waters for the very first time in an unprecedented move which is being described as a provocative retaliation to the U.S. naval presence in the East China Sea.

According to a report by GoldSea.com, a news outlet aimed at Asian-Americans, a 4,000 ton People’s Liberation Army electronic reconnaissance ship was recently spotted near Hawaii within the U.S. 200-nautical mile EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone).

The report was also picked up by the Honolulu Star-Advertiser, which ran an article entitled China moves spy ship near isles, Asian media say.

The ship “is equipped with various electronic gear for eavesdropping on radio communications and tracking ships and aircraft. It is also believed to have jamming equipment to interfere with the radio communications of other ships,” according to the report.

The development is unprecedented because China has never sent a ship within the U.S. EEZ, although the U.S. has entered the Chinese EEZ on numerous occasions for decades. It is not known whether the ship violated the territorial waters of the United States, which extend to 12 nautical miles under the 1982 UN convention on the Law of the Sea.

The fact that the ship got within 2,400 miles of San Francisco represents “a potential for offensive actions against the US by the Chinese military,” according to the report.

The development is apparently part of China’s growing military confidence, which was also exemplified with the country’s recent declassification of its nuclear-armed Xia-class submarine fleet, which according to state media represents an “assassin’s mace that would make adversaries tremble.”

China’s increasing aggressiveness in the East China Sea and its challenge to Japanese control of the Senkaku Islands has sparked tensions, with Japan repeatedly scrambling fighter jets earlier this week in response to Chinese military aircraft flying near Okinawa.

Back in September, China also reportedly sent warships to the coast of Syria to “observe” the actions of US and Russian vessels in the region.

“The recent deployment of a PLAN surveillance ship into Hawaiian waters is seen as Beijing’s message to the US and the rest of the world that China can now contest the waters of the western Pacific and that the US Navy no longer has a free pass in the region. It is also seen as a form of retaliation for what Beijing considers the provocative naval exercises the US recently conducted in the Yellow Sea jointly with the navies of South Korea and Japan’s Self-Defense Force,” states the report.

Conservatives: The 2nd Revolution Begins November 19!

Larry Klayman[H/T Western Journalism]: A coalition of patriotic Americans are planning to converge on Washington, D.C. next month in a concerted effort to clean up the messes created by our current crop of leaders. According to Larry Klayman, who is organizing the Nov. 19 event, the desired result will include the resignations of several high-profile politicians.

Klayman, the founder of Freedom Watch and a man often credited with inspiring the Tea Party movement, wants to see millions of disgruntled citizens show up for a daylong rally, followed by a camp-out in Lafayette Park until the concerns are addressed.

According to an agenda of the event, known as “Reclaim American Now,” Klayman wants “all patriotic citizens” to show up “and demand the resignations of President Barack Hussein Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and House Speaker John Boehner.”

Klayman will kick off the event with an introduction around 10 a.m. at Lafayette Park, during which he will address many of the concerns conservatives have regarding the future of our nation.

“Barack Hussein Obama has driven our country into the ground and the political opposition has allowed this to happen,” he explained in the agenda. “The nation is on the verge of economic, social, and strategic collapse, as the people’s grievances are being continually ignored.”

In response to the dismissive treatment Americans have received from leaders in D.C., Klayman is calling for “civil disobedience in the style of Mahatma Gandhi in India and South Africa,” which he said “must be employed urgently before the nation goes under for the count.”

Nonviolent solutions are the answer, he explained, noting that “we hope to avoid” an armed revolution.

Driving home the message will be a number of “victims of President Obama’s administration,” each of whom will share their unique stories at the event.

[H/T WND.com] “… Then the lady sitting behind the desk; I don’t know what their name is, but the lady that was sitting behind the desk … I couldn’t really understand what she was saying because she had me on speakerphone. I remember her saying, ‘We can’t have this type of stuff going on here, so we have to release you.’ But they had locked the doors and everything; I guess they didn’t want anybody to come in there.”

– Earline Davis, fired Obamacare telephone operator, Healthcare Marketplace Call Center, Oct. 24, 2013

Earline Davis, a bright, young, sincere and respectful Obamacare telephone operator who was interviewed on radio by Sean Hannity of Fox News over the complete non-functionality of the now-infamous Obamacare Healthcare Marketplace Call Center was fired for speaking the truth. If indeed this innocent woman can pay a price for her benign honesty, then why should the president of the United States not also pay a price with his job for his continued deceit, dishonesty, pettiness, ruthless vindictiveness and homicidal actions and tendencies toward the American people?

Leftist political commentators like NBC’s Andrea Mitchell and sister network MSNBC’s Martin Bashir, Lawrence O’Donnell and a host of others in the last few weeks have excoriated me for announcing at the Million Veterans March on Oct. 13 that President Barack Hussein Obama “bows down to allah” and that he “should put the Quran down, get up off his knees and come out [of the White House] with his hands up.” Notwithstanding these demonstrable metaphoric truths that Obama does favor Muslim interests over Judeo-Christian and American ones, the “Mullah In Chief” has committed so many other abuses in office that the time has come for him to be railroaded, peacefully and non-violently, out of town and removed from office.

The latest outrage, the firing of Earline Davis for simply speaking the truth about the Obamacare website with Sean Hannity – who admirably and compassionately pledged to pay Ms. Davis’ salary for a year and to help find her a new job – is just the latest in a series of the “injuries and usurpations” of this modern-day tyrant. As Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence, “… when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their [the people’s] right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security … [t]o prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.”

So it is too with Obama and his ultra-leftist government agents who have done all they can to dismantle the nation and remold it in his socialist concept of body politic, believing that We the People lack the focus or resolve, 237 years after our first Declaration of Independence, to again rise up and remove them.

Consider these “Facts” requiring immediate action:

  1. Obama is not a natural born citizen as required by the Constitution eligible to run for and be elected president of the United States. Having lied about his place of birth, which was likely Kenya and not within the borders of territories of the United States, and not having two parents who were American citizens at the time of his birth, he later, after years of demands by concerned citizens, produced on the White House website a fraudulent birth certificate to try to subterfuge his deceit. Despite election law complaints in various states to prove that Obama is not a natural born citizen, the courts, as has become the norm, have thus far turned a blind eye, obviously out of fear of the tyrant. Not one court has legitimately addressed the law, and We the People have been abandoned by our judges, who have generally become highly politicized and corrupt.
  2. The growing list of what the tyrant calls his “phony scandals,” from Benghazi-gate, Navy SEAL-gate, IRS-gate, NSA-gate, to Fast and Furious-gate and now Obamacare-gate, has been swept under the carpet by Obama and his pliant and highly corrupt attorney general, Eric Holder. Congress, while holding hearings on these scandals, lacks the courage or will to seek justice and to impeach and convict Obama.
  3. Obama and his minions continue to leak highly classified and damaging national security information, such as American cyber-warfare and U.S. Israeli war plans should Iran’s nuclear facilities need to be destroyed, as low-level whistleblowers like Edward Snowden and Bradley Manning are burned at the legal stake. Obama and the likes of Hillary Clinton have damaged U.S. national security far worse than Snowden or Manning, yet they walk off scot-free.
  4. Benefits to our military veterans and access to war memorials can be shut down under the guise of national debt issues, but Obama, members of Congress and other so-called government leaders continued to receive their “perks” without interruption.
  5. The recent killing of a mother who, due to her postpartum depression, drove her car into the White House gates, was unnecessary and murderous, just as the Obama administration’s release of the identity of Navy SEAL Team VI following the killing of Osama bin Laden led to their death at the hands of the Taliban in a shoot-down of their helicopter on Aug. 6, 2011, in a raid called Extortion 17.

The long list of repeated injuries and usurpations is too long to put in this column, but I am preparing a new Declaration of Independence to present and “declare” at the White House gates on Tuesday, Nov. 19, when Obama’s resignation is demanded by the millions who we hope to have present that day.

I call upon all of you to join us on Nov. 19, 2013, to Reclaim American Now before it is too late and our nation collapses under the heavy weight of Obama’s long and growing train of abuses and usurpations.

Reclaim America Now begins at 10 a.m. on Nov. 19 in LaFayette Park in front of the White House. See www.reclaimamericanow.net.

Suicide Bomber: Blows Himself Up on Empty Mediterranean Beach, No Other Fatalities

Suicide Bomber: Empty Beach[H/T Breitbart]: Officials say a suicide bomber detonated on an empty beach in front of a hotel in the Tunisian Mediterranean resort town of Sousse. He was the only fatality. An employee at the hotel told the BBC the blast occurred at 09:45 local time (08:45 GMT) close to the Riadh Palms hotel and that no-one was hurt except for the bomber.

The male attacker was wearing a belt of explosives according to Tunisia’s Tap state news agency. The AFP news agency reported that witnesses said the bomber was spotted and chased from the hotel onto an empty beach where he blew himself up.

In a separate plot to attack ex-President Habib Bourguiba’s tomb, security sources say police captured another would-be suicide bomber before he could detonate.

Interior Ministry spokesman Mhamed Ali Laroui told AFP, “an attempted attack targeting the compound of the Bourguiba mausoleum was foiled… and a young man carrying explosives was arrested.”

Since the 2011 uprising, Tunisia has seen a rise in attacks by militants.

Some attacks more successful than others.

NSA ‘Hacks’ into Yahoo, Google Data Centers Worldwide

[H/T National Security]: The National Security Agency has secretly broken into the main communications links that connect Yahoo and Google data centers around the world, according to documents obtained from former NSA contractor Edward Snowden and interviews with knowledgeable officials.

By tapping those links, the agency has positioned itself to collect at will from hundreds of millions of user accounts, many of them belonging to Americans. The NSA does not keep everything it collects, but it keeps a lot.

GOOGLE CLOUD EXPLOITATION
According to a top-secret accounting dated Jan. 9, 2013, the NSA’s acquisitions directorate sends millions of records every day from internal Yahoo and Google networks to data warehouses at the agency’s headquarters at Fort Meade, Md. In the preceding 30 days, the report said, field collectors had processed and sent back 181,280,466 new records — including “metadata,” which would indicate who sent or received e-mails and when, as well as content such as text, audio and video.The NSA’s principal tool to exploit the data links is a project called MUSCULAR, operated jointly with the agency’s British counterpart, the Government Communications Headquarters . From undisclosed interception points, the NSA and the GCHQ are copying entire data flows across fiber-optic cables that carry information among the data centers of the Silicon Valley giants.The infiltration is especially striking because the NSA, under a separate program known as PRISM, has front-door access to Google and Yahoo user accounts through a court-approved process.

The MUSCULAR project appears to be an unusually aggressive use of NSA tradecraft against flagship American companies. The agency is built for high-tech spying, with a wide range of digital tools, but it has not been known to use them routinely against U.S. companies.

In a statement, the NSA said it is “focused on discovering and developing intelligence about valid foreign intelligence targets only.”

“NSA applies Attorney General-approved processes to protect the privacy of U.S. persons — minimizing the likelihood of their information in our targeting, collection, processing, exploitation, retention, and dissemination,” it said.

In a statement, Google’s chief legal officer, David Drummond, said the company has “long been concerned about the possibility of this kind of snooping” and has not provided the government with access to its systems.

“We are outraged at the lengths to which the government seems to have gone to intercept data from our private fiber networks, and it underscores the need for urgent reform,” he said.

A Yahoo spokeswoman said, “We have strict controls in place to protect the security of our data centers, and we have not given access to our data centers to the NSA or to any other government agency.”

Under PRISM, the NSA gathers huge volumes of online communications records by legally compelling U.S. technology companies, including Yahoo and Google, to turn over any data that match court-approved search terms. That program, which was first disclosed by The Washington Post and the Guardian newspaper in Britain, is authorized under Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act and overseen by the Foreign ­Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC).
