Helen Thomas, Obama and Jim Carrey - In The News 20 July 2013

Helen Thomas dies. Good Riddance. She is most famous for her racism against Israel (she is of Lebanese descent) highlighted by this quote: "Tell them (Israel) to get the hell out of Palestine,.....Remember, these people are occupied and it's their land. It's not Germany, it's not Poland." When Wrinkle Faced Thomas was asked where they (Israelis) should go, she answered, "They should go home." When asked where's home, Thomas replied: "Poland, Germany and America and everywhere else."

An on-line report on her career and death said that after she quit UPI in 2000 — by then an outsized figure in a shrunken organization — her influence waned. I would re-word that to say "a shrunken figure in a outsized organization,............".

Jim Carrey twitting anti-violence messages with one hand, cashing large checks for his violence laden movie with the other. Carrey made news recently when he twitted that he could e would not stand behind his violent comic-book film "Kick-Ass 2," because of the violent conten, in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary murders.

Carrey's "Kick Ass 2" co-star, John Leguizamo, said (in part) "He's entitled to think whatever he's thinking, (but) I just don't understand. When did you realize the movie was violent? I mean, didn't you see the first one? Didn't you read the script? I know you must have read the script! I don't understand."

We like to add that if Carrey feels so bad for his violent film, then we suggest he donates his proceeds to the families of the Sandy Hook murders. Some how we don't think he'll take us up on this suggestion. 


Barack Obama President Barack Obama, making his first public remarks on the George Zimmerman acquittal, said on Friday that many African-Americans believe that “both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different” if Trayvon Martin had been white.

Mr President, you perpetuate that thinking in your significant efforts to influence public opinion, influence the State of Florida in the needless prosecution of Geroge Zimmerman, and inflame racial overtones through your rethoric when you said "You know, when Trayvon Martin was first shot, I said that this could have been my son.”   Then you further said "And for those who resist that idea—that we should think about something like these 'stand your ground' laws—I just ask people to consider: If Trayvon Martin was of age and armed, could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk?"

Well, Mr President, I'm not going to let you get away with re-inventing the facts. Stand your ground was not the issue.  Defneidng your life against possible death or grave bodily injury was.  Trayvon Martin did not stand his ground....that was part of the problem. He closed with Zimmerman and assaulted him, that was the other half of the problem.

Sons of Goats and Pigs

مقطع لم ولن تشاهدو ا بمثل بشاعته شاهدوا يا عرب وشاهدوا يا مسلمين This is Arabic for "we are son's of goats and pigs, who torture and kill defenseless prisoners who are also son's of goats and pigs." It really doesn't matter which group the guy on the ground belongs to and which group the thugs belong to.


Another example of the Jihadist's beliefs is the recent interview of the Taliban commander in Pakistan who commented on shooting the (then) 15 year old girl in the head. This Taliban asshole apologized not for shooting the girl, but not for "warning her" that they were about to shoot her in the head......So far all you liberal ass hats who think we can negotiate with these non-humans,...go pound sand. Oh, and a question for you: Where is your outrage over daily events such as shown in the below video?

They Thought The Bullets Would Silence Us: The Heroism of Malala Yousafzai

Remember those girls that Taliban gunmen took of a bus and shot? It not only gave us yet another example of the pure evil, non-human thinking and behavior of these assholes, but it gave us a better story when this brave, young girl, Malala Yousafzai, stood up to the Taliban. This is from a news report on yahoo.com with the title, ‘Books and Pens Are Our Most Powerful Weapons’: The Heroism of Malala Yousafzai, By Bob Woodruff and Mary-Rose Abraham by way of ABC News Makers, is a must read.



On her Sweet Sixteen, Malala Yousafzai’s celebration included what most teen girls would never imagine for their birthdays.

The Pakistani girl addressed a special session of the United Nations, calling for global leaders to deliver education to all children. It was dubbed “Malala Day” in honor of the girl who was shot by a Taliban gunman on her way to school last October in the Swat Valley of Pakistan. The usual ambassadors and dignitaries cleared the assembly room, with more than 500 young people – all under 25 years old – packing the session for Malala’s address.

“The Taliban shot me on the left side of my forehead,” said Malala. “They shot my friends too. They thought the bullet would silence us, but they failed. Out of that silence came thousands of voices. The terrorists thought they would change my aim and stop my ambitions. But nothing changed in my life except this. Weakness, fear and hopelessness died. Strength, power and courage was born.”

Only a few adults were allowed to be present, including U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and U.N. Special Envoy for Global Education Gordon Brown.

“I quickly understood when I met Malala that she was an amazing girl,” said Brown in an interview with ABC News’ Bob Woodruff. “She’s got such courage, but she’s also got such a strong belief. This belief that every child irrespective of gender, of race, of religion, should have the chance of education, is so at the center of everything that she does that you cannot but be impressed by her determination.”

Worldwide, 57 million boys and girls do not receive an education, with girls making up 32 million of those out of school. Part of the U.N.’s Millennium Development Goals is universal access to a primary school education by the end of 2015.

“It’s an intolerable situation,” explained Brown. “It actually costs in most countries in Africa and Asia only about a $100 a year to educate a child. It’s not the finance. It’s the lack of political will to do this. It’s something we can do something about pretty quickly.”

Where political will has failed, Malala’s steadfast determination to get an education has inspired 4 million people around the world to sign a petition calling for every child’s right to an education and an end to discrimination against girls.

“There are a large number of girls now who are not prepared to take no for an answer, who are not prepared to accept the subjugation, who are not prepared to either be married off as 12-year-olds or to be trafficked or to be in child labor or to be discriminated against,” said Brown.

Brown likens this struggle to the civil rights movements in the United States and the battle to end apartheid South Africa.

“We can allow terrorists to deny girls the right to education,” said Brown. “We can be indifferent to the needs of young people who are wanting to go to school. But we will pay a heavy price if we don’t take action.”

That heavy price was paid just a few weeks ago. In southwestern Pakistan, a suicide bomber blew up a bus carrying university students and teachers, killing 14 women. Militants then attacked a hospital treating the injured, killing two dozen more. In northeastern Nigeria, militants opened fire on students taking their exams at school, killing nine of them. Just the day before, 13 students and teachers were killed when extremists attacked a boarding school.

“We have these outbreaks of violence, and we can no longer be complacent or indifferent to the attacks that have been put on girls, particularly, trying to get to school,” said Brown. “And that’s why Malala is such a symbol, because she’s not the only person who’s been subject to these intimidations and these threats and these attacks. But she has stood up and said, ‘I am not prepared to give up my right to education in the face of these terrorist threats.’”

Brown believes Malala deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. But what the young girl has told him she would most like to see is the building of schools.

“If you want to have long-term change, transformation, you need to invest in education,” said Brown. “And if you want to avoid the security problems that have been caused in Africa as well as Asia by terrorist organizations, you can’t allow them to fall prey to these extremists who are offering to educate them in madrasas, and be subject to terrorist propaganda. We’ve got to do what’s the right thing to do, and that’s to offer education to these children ourselves.”
