tip o' the hat, to chipps w.
i have just read an interesting post at pajamas media by roger simon, majordomo of the whole operation, entitled "benghazi worse than watergate," posted sept. 29, 2012. http://pjmedia.com/rogerlsimon/2012/09/29/benghazi-worse-than-watergate/ .
quite frankly, i am not interested in whether the administration cover up of what happened in benghazi is worse than the watergate burglary, ... , to me, it is enough that obama & clinton & susan rice are liars, and it is enough to understand that the media are complicit in the lies, and will do nothing to examine them.
what i am interested in, however, is shown by these following few brief passages from simon's article, in which he notes plaintively that he does not understand what is going on. he writes:
you could say that is appeasement. unfortunately, I am beginning to think it is more than that. it is, on the part of some, intentional.
we can trace that back, among other places, to obama’s famous cairo speech. that speech was naïve, yes, but even more it was subversive in its intentions. http://pjmedia.com/rogerlsimon/2012/09/29/benghazi-worse-than-watergate/
if roger simon is "beginning" to think that the obama administrations policy of appeasement towards islam is "intentional," if he is just coming to that realization, then he simply hasn't been paying attention. and, if he thinks that obama's speech at cairo was "naive," then he is just a little late for the bus.
obama's speech to islam assembled at cairo was anything except naivete: it was in fact, the announced policy of the radical left in this country, as long sponsored by george soros. this policy was published in a remarkable pamphlet in december of 2008 entitled "changing course: a new direction for u.s. relations with the muslim world." the pdf is here, http://www.usmuslimengagement.org/storage/usme/documents/C .
this document was put together by a "think tank" assembled by george soros and headed by madeline albright. it brought together leftists from within the state department of the united states, and avowed islamists and muslims, and together they composed a road map by which a u.s. administration could seek to integrate the west and the islamic world.
simply and directly put, this document outlines a suggested course of acts & time line by which a new president of the united states (anticipating the election of obama, i would suppose) could act to engage the muslim world, and to integrate the views of islam into american culture, educational institutions and the u.s. news media. it is very big on this integration of islamic and american life, and suggests all sorts of schemes by which it might occur, including the integration of the editorial and production staffs of muslim and american newsroom and broadcast studios.
you doubt me? get off the television for a bit, and read the document, in its entirety, as i have done several times.
it suggested a "cairo" speech, and it suggested the policy of appeasement adopted by obama. it suggested any number of other paths, since followed by obama.
everything that roger simon puzzles over as being "perhaps" intentional and not so haphazard as heretofore imagined, was in fact set out in this document. obama has followed it prescribed course to the "t," and has not departed from it.
i have written extensively on this topic. i have been ignored widely, and my writing has caused nary a ripple on the obama pond. but, i am going to republish the links, in hopes that some of you will read the pdf linked above, and will take a look at my seminal analysis of the radical lefts policy towards islam, as implemented and followed by barack obama.
1.) http://wintersoldier2008.typepad.com/summer_patriot_winter_sol/2009/03/obamas-vision-a-muslim-compatible-america-.html -- an in depth analysis of the pamphlet, "changing course: ... ." if you will but read it, you will see obama's course as unerring, intentional, and definitely not the result of naivete. read the march 22, 2009 article, as it is punctuated & capped, for your convenience.
my dear friends. none of what the left and obama have done with regard to the muslim world, and as pertains to the abandonment of israel, is shrouded in any sort of mystery or doubt. it has been the result of an announced and calculated plan to curry favor with islam, and to incorporate it into our world.
and you can read it.
what the radical left has done,is doing, has tremendous implications for world wide christianity, and for jews and the jewish state. put simply, the democrats, the left, obama, ... , have chose islam over christianity and judaism.
and, that's not the least of it.
if you want to know, read. now, at the end of my post, i have also lined to articles at atlas shrugs, proprietor, pamela geller, and some of her work on this topic. it is good, but, it is not nearly as thorough as my work, and my analysis of the documents and their impact on american foreign policy.
and, you'll find nothing i am aware of anywhere else that is, either.

update, 09.30.2012. our views contrast, as abe miller thinks obama is "failed." i think him amazingly successful, however, at following the dictates of the muslim brotherhood and the o.i.c., and the schemes set forth in "changing course: ... ."
but, (and be that as it may), abe miller has written a related post at american thinker with regard to the absolute & abysmal failure of the "state craft" of the obama administration in the middle east.
| http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/09/culture_statecraft_and_obamas_middle_east_failure.html . |
abe is absolutely correct if you view "failure" within the context of the normal aims of american foreign policy, as followed almost uniformly by republican and democratic administrations for the 60 or 70 years preceding what i like to call the "disaster," e.g., the election of bark "no bite" obama. on the other hand, (and as noted above) obama's foreign policy is an absolute raging success if viewed from within the context of his goals as a devout muslim and radical leftist/marxist. some, like roger simon, and to a limited extent abe miller, merely view obama as failed. by contrast, i view obama as purposefully malignant, and a wrecker and despoiler. be that as it may, and given the minor difference in focus in the articles, abe millers post at "american thinker" is brilliant. it is very well written, thoroughly vetted, and makes his case. go there, and read it. end update.
I can't find any share buttons on this. If you want more traffic and to get your very important message out in this topic, you need to have some easy to find twitter, Facebook, and other share buttons to make it easy for people to directly share from here.
Thank you.

i am an old poop. set in my ways, & crotchety. i think the word used this days is irascible.
i don't know about such things. what i do know about all the various "facebook" type things does not lead me to think that the people there have very long attention spans. nor does it seem to me that their concerns run to political issues, such as are examined by thought as opposed to assertion.
but, i could be wrong.
i will ask some people how to put the "share buttons" on.
you know how?

Another interesting and insightful post john jay.
It never ceases to amaze me that these so called intellectuals can not see, that once they have dissolved their own power base within the societies in which they come from, in order to accommodate the 'other', they will simply be pushed aside as the new masters seek all the loot which will be up for grabs at that point. It is really quite remarkable the degree of stupidity on display at this juncture of human history.
So much for a first rate education at the seat of post modernist dialectic materialism.

i owe you an apology.
in the interest of being polite i was not candid with you.
in actual fact, i am not in the slightest interested in making access to my writing easy or convenient for people.
i want them to work when they get here, and to think. i am not in the least bit interested in telling them what they already know, or reinforcing their opinions.
what purpose does that fulfill? i am not interested in being popular, or being accessible.
i would like very much for people to learn from my writing, and for it to stimulate thought and reflection. these things are not easy, and they are not casually done.
this is not a pop in and spend 3 seconds reading sort of blog.
so, there's the truth.
i am just not a "button" sort of guy. never have been, never will be.
i don't mean to be a smart ass, or mean or short. but, i am sort of serious in my purpose.

just another richard:
thank you for the read, and for the comment.
in college i was a poli sci major, and took a whole lot of history classes in 19th and 20th century history, and philosophy classes in kant, hegel, and the like.
and, i was fascinated by russian history in that period, as the russians transitioned themselves into tyranny.
one of the things that continually amazed and entertained me was the attack by radicals upon the old regimes, and the use of the pejorative words leveled by the radicals at the old regime and aristocracy.
the radical used the very words against the established order that they would become once they took power.
and the old regime/orders took it, and treated the radicals as if they were wayward children, and sent them off to comfortable exile or house arrest for bombings, murders, attacks on the regime, and the like.
sorta like bill ayers and bernie dohrn, and angela davis and the black panthers.
one of obama's big supportors, for instance, is a guy known as don warden, a founder of the black panthers, later to be known as khalid al mansour, a well known radical lawyer.
he helped get obama into harvard law school, for instance.
the more things change, the more they stay the same.

p.s. ambrose bierce was an old curmudgeon who wrote for the st. louis dispatch.
weighty stuff.
but, he almost always had a little witticism to start things. he once noted that an egoist was someone more interested in himself than in me.
as to obama and his ilk, ... , he also noted, that radicalism is tomorrow's conservatism, today.
you should look up his definition of "infidel."
Posted by: john jay | September 30, 2012 at 07:01 PM
p.s. in short, radicals don't change much of anything. they just call it something else, and put themselves in the positions of power from which they have expelled the "conservatives."
and, they like to shoot people behind the ear in damp basements. something romantic about that to them.
beats me?
Posted by: john jay | September 30, 2012 at 07:03 PM
Hi johm jay.Yes, I am aware of Don Warden, and his alter image Kahlid al Mansour. If some of the revelations coming out now are found to be true, then there are a whole lot of people who should be facing some serious repercussions, and indeed may one day find to their great horror that treason has always been dealt with in the most brutal and final manner, irrespective of any temporary current laws. When the conflict gets hot, and the people begin to feel the pain and suffering, then the lying deceivers and their media enablers will feel the anger of those thy have betrayed. Sound overly dramatic, maybe, but like a woman scorned, hell hath no fury as a people betrayed.
Your comment about the proclivity of the radicals to indulge in extra judicial murder is spot on, in fact it is the one singular accomplishment of all Marxists in over a hundred years of marching toward their nirvana, that path being paved with the bones of untold numbers, sacrificed to their utopian idealism. The ancient worship of Baal, was never so savage and barbaric as the modern Marxist in all his various incarnations.

richard:
kind of a toss up between ba'al and the marxists.
marxists are not known for having tossed babies into burning cauldrons, but then again, not being much on the bible or religious history, simply might not have been aware of the practice.
who knows?
certainly pol phot might have tried it.

p.s. our boy che, of the poster fame, richly enjoyed murdering people one at a time.
a mean bastard, by all accounts.

I don't know john, the pro choice brigade have done a roaring trade under the banner of "it's a woman's choice....hands of our bodies".
And yes, it is ironic that the left's favored sons are habitually found to have their hands bathed on blood.

richard:
yes, on the matter of murder by abortion, you are absolutely correct.
i am usually adroit enough to think of that, ... , getting old, i guess.
probably just on the threshold of state sponsored euthanasia.
the left gets you, coming and going, i suppose.

"getting old, I guess" ... aren't we all john. As for me, well look at the misspelled words on my last comment, and those are not words that require ANY thought...gawd help me, as Mr. Kipling might say. My excuse was I was typing on my Android phone...not much of an excuse I must admit, but.....
The young of today are not interested though; too many other preoccupations to follow. Try to talk to most of them, and they look at you as either a hateful old bigot, or a doddery old fool. Poor souls, little can they see what horrors shall await them.

you ever read "the journals of the lewis and clark expidition" ?
i am from n.e. oregon.
around here, if a spelling was good enough for mr. lewis and mr. clark, it is good for us.
in other words, we have a certain latitude/lassitude about such matters.
i wouldn't worry about it too much, were i you.

Oh I don't worry about it all that much. In point of fact, any re-reading of much of my writing will induce a sense of bewildered humility...a sort of, lord did I do that. But the general jist of my intentions comes through pretty clearly.
My, but we do seem to have drifted off the topic of your post...sorry about that.
