New O’Keefe Video: Cornell Dean Advises on Starting ISIS Club



Is it OK to bring a humanitarian pro-“Islamic State Iraq and Syria” group on campus, the undercover for conservative activist James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas asks.



◼ Cornell dean says ISIS welcome on campus in undercover video - NY Post





...My first two impressions were:

This guy is going to be the center of a major s–tstorm in the morning.
I’m not sure he understood what he had just done, and probably didn’t know that the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria was the dreaded beheaders of ISIS, or what Hamas was.
I wasn’t going to write about it, but I’ve been bombarded with emails and comments from readers calling it to my attention because … CORNELL.... ◼ KEEP READING at Le-gal In-sur-rec-tion

Curious that: This ONE thing missing from media’s Cruz coverage says it all;

◼ And what is says is pathetic - Twitchy



Ding, ding, ding! Curious that.

Except, not curious at all. Lapdogs gotta be lapdogs. And Cruz isn’t the “right kind,” right Dems?...

Where is all the “historic” stuff and the “unprecedented” swoons and the like?

What We Can Learn From Patrick Henry’s ‘Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death’ Speech

◼ The founders understood that freedom and rights can only be enjoyed reliably by a people willing to exert themselves to win and hold them. Henry’s words remind us that in the extreme case—a case that does not arise every day, but will arise more often than we would like—we have to be willing to fight and risk death if we wish to remain free. - Daily Signal

Tweet Of The Day: Since When Is Following The Constitution A Far Right Position?



◼ Believing in the system and rights promoted by the Constitution is now “extreme.” The worst part? We not only have the Obama administration and their lapdogs in the media to thank for that, but establishment Republicans as well. - PJ Media

Obama’s Orwellian foreign policy. Up is down. Scream at Bibi, while Yemen burns.



◼ The Orwellian Obama Presidency: Under Mr. Obama, friends are enemies, denial is wisdom, capitulation is victory. - BRET STEPHENS/Wall St. Journal

The humiliating denouement to America’s involvement in Yemen came over the weekend, when U.S. Special Forces were forced to evacuate a base from which they had operated against the local branch of al Qaeda. This is the same branch that claimed responsibility for the January attack on Charlie Hebdo and has long been considered to pose the most direct threat to Europe and the United States.

So who should Barack Obama be declaring war on in the Middle East other than the state of Israel?

There is an upside-down quality to this president’s world view. His administration is now on better terms with Iran—whose Houthi proxies, with the slogan “God is great, death to America, death to Israel, damn the Jews, power to Islam,” just deposed Yemen’s legitimate president—than it is with Israel. He claims we are winning the war against Islamic State even as the group continues to extend its reach into Libya, Yemen and Nigeria.

He treats Republicans in the Senate as an enemy when it comes to the Iranian nuclear negotiations, while treating the Russian foreign ministry as a diplomatic partner. He favors the moral legitimacy of the United Nations Security Council to that of the U.S. Congress. He is facilitating Bashar Assad’s war on his own people by targeting ISIS so the Syrian dictator can train his fire on our ostensible allies in the Free Syrian Army.

He was prepared to embrace a Muslim Brother as president of Egypt but maintains an arm’s-length relationship with his popular pro-American successor. He has no problem keeping company with Al Sharpton and tagging an American police department as comprehensively racist but is nothing if not adamant that the words “Islamic” and “terrorism” must on no account ever be conjoined. The deeper that Russian forces advance into Ukraine, the more they violate cease-fires, the weaker the Kiev government becomes, the more insistent he is that his response to Russia is working.

To adapt George Orwell’s motto for Oceania: Under Mr. Obama, friends are enemies, denial is wisdom, capitulation is victory.

Somali-born activist and writer Ayaan Hirsi Ali: Islam Is ‘Not a Religion of Peace’





◼ Ali defended her message: "The message of this book isn't to attack Muslims... it's to say we need that courageous step, and that is to reform the religion from within." - MRC TV

“Islam, unreformed today, is not a religion of peace,” said well-known Somali-born activist and writer Ayaan Hirsi Ali, who said on ABC’s “This Week” that the Muslim religion needs reform. In the interview, host Martha Raddatz charged that Ali’s views “incite people to be anti-Muslim,” but Ali held her ground.

Ali suffered female genital mutilation (FGM) as a young girl in Somalia. She eventually escaped to Holland and participated in a documentary about the abuses that girls suffer in Muslim countries.

The documentary’s producer, Theo Van Gogh, was killed in broad daylight in Holland – the killer’s note was a threat for Ali.

Ever since, Ali has used her notoriety to shed light on what she believes are the problems with the religion of her youth. Ali has had a fatwa issued against her and travels with bodyguards at all times.
