Sunnis’ bet pays off in election totals


Well apparently the Mohammedan sects in Iraq will have to cooperate or obliterate themselves in order to have a viable national government. The Kurds and Shi’ites seem to have fallen short in the votes that would have allowed them to dominate the Sunnis. This is a shot in the arm of the Bush mandate to democratize Iraq and an additional nail in the coffin of Sunni insurgents. Especially the foreign Al Qaeda insurgents.

Ballots may trump bullets after all. That was the positive news from Baghdad on Friday. Election results show that Iraq’s three main ethnic factions will have to work together if they hope to govern.

By participating in December’s parliamentary elections, Sunnis elected 55 legislators – enough to secure a role in the coalition government that eventually forms.

Had the Sunnis boycotted the vote, as they did last January, Shiite and Kurdish politicians combined would have won the 184 seats needed to form a government, shutting the Sunnis out. This exclusion could have fueled a civil war.

Instead, the Shia and Kurds fell three seats short. This enhances the prospects of a "national unity" government. And, we hope, it also puts a little more distance between Sunnis who want a stake in the new Iraq and the insurgency.

Is Iran already at war with U.S.?


Islamofascist Ahmadinejad, President of Iran has indicated a greater plan than just wiping Israel off the map. His plan includes the United States of America. The reference is from Joseph Farah’s G-2 Bulletin. WorldNetDaily picked up an abbreviated version. To read the details you will have pay the bucks to Joseph Farah. Here is the WorldNetDaily version:

Ahmadinejad called for more than
wiping Israel off the face of the earth

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s speech in Tehran last fall, in which he called for Israel to be wiped off the face of the earth, got a healthy amount of coverage by the international media.

Yet, despite the number of stories published and broadcast, a key element of that address to ‘The World Without Zionism" conference was overlooked, ignored – spiked, if you will – by major press organizations, according to a new report in Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin.

It wasn’t just a world without Zionism and Israel that Ahmadinejad and his friends in Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad and other terrorist groups were envisioning. It was a world without the United States of America.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. In this case, it is literally true. Examine for yourself the photos published here of Ahmadinejad addressing the Tehran conference Oct. 26, 2005.

Some of them will look very familiar. Those showing the Iranian president gesticulating at a podium showing the name of the conference were published worldwide – from Al-Jazeera to the Associated Press. But those showing a wider view – and the complete poster for the event – are getting their biggest audience yet here in G2B.

It is worth noting that Ahmadinejad didn’t just stroll up to the podium. The Iranian government actually produced the visual aids you see here.

Yes, that is a ball representing the USA cracked at the bottom of that hourglass — with another representing Israel falling later.

It wasn’t just the imagery of the conference that was overlooked, ignored, unreported and underplayed by the world press. It was also the anti-American substance of Ahmadinejad’s speech.

"Is it possible for us to witness a world without America and Zionism?" he asked. "But you had best know that this slogan and this goal are attainable, and surely can be achieved."

What is he talking about?

Iran has developed a strategic "war preparation plan" for what it calls the "destruction of Anglo-Saxon civilization."

Again! Homosexual teacher gets no jail for teen assault


This is second incident in which incompetent or liberal judges have allowed homosexuals in positions of trust to get off with a slap in a limp wrist for rape. Read the below story.

Choir instructor at Wisconsin school is 2nd case this week without prison
Posted: January 19, 2006

 

For the second time this week, a homosexual teacher has been given no prison time for sexually assaulting one of his students.

 

The latest case involves Gary Hoff, a 44-year-old former choir instructor for the Parkview School District in Orfordville, Wis.

 

According to the Janesville Gazette, Rock County Judge Alan Bates sentenced Hoff to three years probation after he pleaded no contest to one count each of disorderly conduct and misdemeanor fourth-degree sexual assault of a 16-year-old boy, who now is 17.

Bates also ordered Hoff to pay a $1,000 fine, serve 30 hours of community service and have no contact with the victims. Hoff must also surrender his teaching license and participate in counseling and treatment required by his probation officer.

Another sexual assault victim of Hoff, former student Jeb McMahon, now 27, was hoping Bates would be tougher when it came to the sentence.

"I’m not happy with what all’s been found in the investigation," McMahon told the court. "I would like to see you set a strong example that this is not something, as a community, we’re going to tolerate."

McMahon’s assault occurred in 1993 when he was 15, but he didn’t report it until last year. Hoff was not charged in connection with that case, only a more recent incident in November 2004 in which he picked up a 17-year-old at the boy’s home for a planned "boys’ night out."

Prosecutors handling the case stated:

Hoff told the boy other friends had canceled on plans for dinner and a movie, but he still took him out. The boy said Hoff hugged him while driving and being sexually aroused. The boy broke away from Hoff, who told him, "still looking good buddy."

Hoff encouraged the boy to take his shirt off for a photo, claiming he resembled singer Justin Timberlake. He also massaged the teen’s back.

Returning home from the movie, Hoff offered the boy $20 to not wear his shirt. The boy said, "this was an easy $20."

"I’m truly sorry to the court and would like to offer my heartfelt apologies to both Jeb and [the 17-year-old boy]," Hoff said during his sentencing hearing.

Hoff, a 17-year veteran of the district quit his position before the school board could take any disciplinary action. During his career, he oversaw many high-school musical productions and the school’s Pizzazz Show Choir, which he took to Branson, Mo., for a 2004 competition.

Three months before his arrest on the sexual assault charges, he pleaded no contest to procuring alcohol for another minor in 2004, and was ordered to pay a $243 fine.

 

Hoff’s avoidance of jail time comes the same week another homosexual teacher in Massachusetts avoided incarceration despite raping a teenage boy.

As WorldNetDaily is reporting, Gregory Pathiakis, 26, of Brockton, Mass., was given five years probation after pleading guilty to one count of rape of a child, enticement of a child under 16, five counts of possession of child pornography and one count of distribution of harmful material to a child.

The jurist handling that case, Judge Suzanne Delvecchio, the first woman to be appointed chief justice of the Massachusetts Superior Court, was honored in 2000 as the keynote speaker at the Massachusetts Gay and Lesbian Bar Association’s annual dinner.

Both cases are emerging on the heels of national outrage this month after a judge in Vermont gave an admitted child rapist a 60-day jail sentence.

If It is Hillary VS McCain Today Then …


Let us imagine it is 2008 and the Democrats and Republicans have rapped up their Conventions. If the winners were Senator Clinton and Senator McCain, polls show that McCain would clean up 52% to 36%.[Newsmax.com Report]

This might seem tempting to the Republicans, assuming that Senator Clinton won the Democratic Party nomination. What kind of President would McCain be? The way he shoots down President Bush, McCain demonstraits more often than not that he is a RINO. That means this: McCain is a left of center Republican that may undo much of the Neo-Conservative policies of President Bush. Again, I realize that the Paleo-Conservatives may find that attractive, but what they don’t understand is that McCain would dismantle many a conservative agenda as well.

I think the only reason that McCain is a Republican is that he ran in ultra-conservative Arizona. He talks tough, which is attractive to conservatives. He talks with an air of honesty, which is attractive to conservatives and Americans alike.(Hmm… Honesty, a rare trait among Democrats.)

If President Bush does not get another shot a appointing a Justice to the Supreme Court, who would McCain appoint? More than likely a moderate to liberal would be McCain’s choice. That would counter the conservative revamping of liberal activist judges in the Federal Court system. If we are going to play the game of activist judges, Republicans and Americans need conservative activist judges. Judges which are more in line with the Constitution and American wishes. Americans have consistently voted anti-gay and pro-Christian only to be shot down by liberal activist judges. Would McCain continue the conservative revolution? I doubt it.

 

“The Open Book”


Paul Keith Davis is a prophetic kind of guy. He offers wonderful insight into the Word of God. I am on an email list in which I received this article. It is a Word in season for this time.

"O Daniel, man of high esteem, understand the words that I am about to tell you and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you." And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood up trembling." –Daniel 10:11

Daniel was a fascinating prophet on many levels. His strength of character and personal devotion clearly captured heaven’s attention. He became a spokesman to his generation and to ours.

Daniel is a prophetic model for today’s leadership and the generation he foresaw. His life typifies many leaders maturing in this end-time generation. Like this notable prophet, men and women of high esteem who will not yield to the fear of man are poised to emerge. As with Daniel and his three friends, these have discovered the Lord in the "fiery furnace" and the "lion’s den" and surfaced as overcomers.

As in his day, many of God’s people have been residing in spiritual Babylon. Great confusion has permeated the faith. Nevertheless, we await God’s promised restoration. In fact, this process has already been set in motion and greatly advanced during the Latter Rain outpouring of 1946-65 and continues today.

The plumb-line is in the Lord’s hand by which all truth will be measured (Zechariah 4:10). This can only be produced through the written Word being mightily anointed to bring forth the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden in Christ. It is the full revelation of Jesus Christ to be delivered to the end-time generation by those who eat the now unsealed book brought by the hands of a strong angel.

We first discover this mysterious book in Daniel 12:3-4 when the prophet was instructed that,

"Those who have insight will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of time; many will go back and forth, and knowledge will increase."

It is our prophetic directive to arise and shine brightly during days of great darkness. We are living in the "end-of-time" era. We have the scriptural assurance that this wonderful promise must be fulfilled. A secret to that reality is found in the words concealed in this incredible book of destiny. Many will go "back and forth" in this day to apprehend its truth and delegate it to this generation.

In the Father’s Right Hand

We first discover this book as it is sealed in Daniel’s day. We then find it in Revelations 5 held in the Father’s right hand, as He sits upon His throne of ultimate power and authority. It had to be preserved in heaven to keep the revelation a secret from man and our adversary.

If man had discovered at the inappropriate time the mysteries of God’s consummation, then we would clearly have perverted them as we have most all of our inheritance throughout history. If our enemy were to realize the contents of this book, he would surely counterfeit them as he has the things delegated to us from God. It was preserved by the Father until Someone (Jesus) was found worthy to take it from His hand and reveal it at the appointed time.

Only the Lord Jesus overcame and qualified to take the book and break its seals. What an incredible day we live in! So great was this act that all of heaven worshiped the Lord for His worthiness. The four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell on their faces before the Lord in this magnificent prophetic fulfillment.

He opened the book of redemption and the full revelation of who He is. The mysteries of God’s kingdom are delayed no longer! Many patriarchs and prophets throughout history longed to understand what will freely be given to this generation of those who overcome.

The apprehension of the truth contained in this veiled book will cause us to be illumined with the brightness of His presence and the strength of great understanding. Then we will lead many to righteousness in a great harvest of souls.

A New Song

This book is a key to the harvest. The song that is sung in heaven at the breaking of its seals emphasizes its role in the great harvest and the calling of many to righteousness. The four living creatures and the twenty-four elders sang:

"Worthy are You to take the book and to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased for God with Your blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation. You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God; and they will reign upon the earth." –Revelations 5:9-10

Daniel stressed that the words of this book are concealed and reserved for the latter-day generation. We are there! At the breaking of its seals, heaven’s host acknowledges the Lord’s great sacrifice and the relationship between the unveiling of this book and the harvest of souls purchased with His own blood.

Furthermore, there is also an emphasis on the full measure of power, wisdom, might, and glory that is to be revealed on this side of eternity. The opening of this book conveys those virtues in its complete revelation to mankind.

The Strong Angel

In Revelations 10 we next discover this opened book in the hand of a strong angel coming down from Heaven. He has a rainbow around His head and feet like pillars of fire that He places on the land and sea. Who is this strong angel? It can be none other than the Angel of the Covenant who led Israel as a pillar of fire by night and as a cloud by day. He now brings the complete revelation of His covenant to present the bridal company without spot or wrinkle. He is introduced to Israel saying:

"Behold, I am going to send an angel before you to guard you along the way and to bring you into the place which I have prepared. Be on your guard before him and obey his voice; do not be rebellious toward him, for he will not pardon your transgression, since My name is in him. But if you truly obey his voice and do all that I say, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries… But you shall serve the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water; and I will remove sickness from your midst." –Exodus 23:20-23 & 25

This angel represented God’s manifest presence among His people. Likewise, the Spirit of the Lord visited this nation with the manifestation of His presence during the last generation. The Latter Rain outpouring was much more than just a healing revival; it was the sowing of seeds for the great harvest. More notable things were accomplished than most presently comprehend.

Great end-time pledges were set in motion. It was the opening of the mysterious book foretold by Daniel, but to the 21st century generation He returns with the now open book in His hand and offers it to be consumed.

Passing of the Torch

The strong angel was introduced in the previous generation through a "Moses" anointing that brought people out of captivity. He now returns to this generation through a "Joshua" anointing to carry people in to the promise of the open book. The Lord walked with Joshua as He did with Moses. Even so, His presence with Joshua revealed an entirely different aspect of His virtue. (See our article "As I Was with Moses.")

We are promised the same manifestation of His Spirit as He beckons those who overcome to take the now opened book and eat it. It will not be enough to merely read this book; it must be devoured. When we do, it will cause us to see the scriptures in an entirely new light. Our understanding of His Word will increase substantially, while seemingly veiled passages scarcely understood will be clearly illumined.

The mysteries of God’s kingdom will be made evident. This mystery is more about becoming something than doing something. It is about becoming God’s mature sons and daughters–the Word becoming flesh once again. Then we will do all that is ordained for this day.

The open book will be offered to those who are hungry for His presence and are passionate to know Him as fully as He may be known. That is the bridal calling: to consume it and make it a part of who they are by consolidating the Word with the Spirit.

It will not be enough to merely intellectually analyze the truth of the open book. It must be mingled with the spirit of revelation to give it life and substance. This experience will fully form Christ in us and bring us to maturity. The Lord’s desire is to fully redeem and sanctify our spirit, soul, and body by preserving us complete and without blame at His coming (1 Thessalonians 5:23).

There is a supernatural element in this destiny that cannot be denied. Like Paul, these mysteries will come by the revelation of Jesus Christ (Galatians 1:12). Though the open book will be sweet in our mouths, it will become bitter in our stomachs. It will not be enough to be satisfied with the mere consumption of this book, but we must also prophesy this revelation to many nations, peoples, and kingdoms. That is the day we have now transitioned into.

RAJOUB DEFENDS FATAH’S RECORD OF TERROR


It is amazing that President Bush (a hero of mine by the way) supports a Palestinian State that will be governed by thugs which have only one goal for existence: The annihilation of the nation Israel. The current PA Security Advisor is trying to score political votes by maintaining Fatah is still committed to the destruction of Israel. They just have to fool the Western Powers so we can get into a position to mount Israel’s destruction. When that attack arrives by the Palestinians, what will America do?
——————–
 
 
PA Security Advisor downplays "tactical" differences with Hamas.
 
Palestinian Authority National Security Advisor Jibril Rajoub – a member of Mahmoud Abbas’ governing Fatah movement  – has gone on the offensive against the rising electoral challenge of Hamas, defending the PA from charges leveled by the Islamic extremist group that it has abandoned the killing of Israelis in favor of a negotiated peace. 

"We were the ones who fought and who kept up the resistance," Rajoub told the pan-Arab al-Jazeera TV network last week, according to a translation provided by MEMRI, explicitly saying for the first time that the Fatah-affiliated al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades was founded on the direct orders of the late PA leader Yasser Arafat.

"We never removed the resistance from our platform, and we never will," Rajoub said, confirming the long-held Israeli position that the PA was directly responsible for ordering, planning and financing the mass killing of Israeli civilians throughout the recent intifada. The al-Aqsa Brigades alone have been responsible for shooting attacks and suicide bombings that have claimed almost a hundred Israeli civilian lives since 2000.

The fact that convicted terrorist leader Marwan Barghouti heads the Fatah list of candidates in the January 25 legislative council elections, Rajoub continued, is evidence of Fatah’s ongoing commitment to jihad against Israel. "This serves as a message that has to do with the resistance and the struggle," he added.

Denying that the PA has a dispute with Hamas about the goals of Palestinian nationalism, Rajoub simply stated that the difference between the two groups was tactical.

"We have never had a dispute with Hamas or anyone else regarding the principle of resistance. In all our agreements with our brothers in Hamas and the other factions, we always insist that resistance is our legitimate right."

Rajoub’s argument is not against terrorism as such, but more that "certain fighting tactics should have been stopped, especially following 9/11."

When PA officials condemn suicide terror, they are careful to do so on purely on the grounds that it is "counter-productive" to Palestinian interests.

While the Hamas founding charter calls for the out and out eradication of the Jewish State, the Fatah-dominated PLO has, since 1974, followed a strategy of achieving Palestinian statehood in the West Bank and Gaza first, as part of the so-called "phased plan" for the annihilation of Israel.

The First Entry


Well hello there. This will be the beginning of what I pray will an excellent blog. I have four others, so when I discovered that I could get a free going on MSN I thought, "cool."

 

I have a really slanted right ideology and a very conservative yet Charismatic Christian spirituality. I am certain I will rub some the wrong way, however it will never be my intention to insult. You will notice that I have a problem with the Islamic faith as it confronts Christianity. I do not hate Arabs or Mohammedans, yet I highly disapprove of that faith as I believe it is a hostile counter-Western Culture ideology. So I apologize ahead of time to individuals who take offense with my stand. I promise not to use profanity or vulgar references in any of my takes and I expect the same courtesy in comments.

To view any of my other blogs go to Slantright.com, Slantright, The Way and SlantedRightPolitics.

 

Enjoy the ride.
