A Lion Among Jackals - Gen. Kelly Rips Dems,Press Over Lies About Trump's Condolence Call

What we have here is a man who has lived his life in service to his country explaining what that means... to jackals who serve nothing but themselves and their agenda to tear down what most Americans still hold sacred.

White House chief of staff John Kelly lashed out at Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.) today (and by extension her fellow Democrats who piled on) saying he was "stunned" by her negative description of President Trump's call to the wife of a U.S. soldier who was killed in combat inNiger.

I went over this yesterday and explained the real reason the press jumped on this, as a tool to keep other news off the headlines.

So General Kelly, who recently lost his own son in combat patiently explained exactly what happens when a service person is killed. And  that the wife or parents of the deceased service person must agree beforehand to take the call, and exactly why President Trump's call was completely appropriate...and not at all a common gesture by presidents in wartime. President Trump personally called all 4 families.

To me, the most telling moment when when General Kelly agreed to take a few questions "but only on this subject" and asked if any of the reporters were Gold Star parents, or even knew any Gold Star parents and the room went silent. Finally he found a couple of reporters who claimed they knew Gold Star families, and of course their questions were not about the topic of the condolence call at all but about the raid itself in Niger, which Kelly addressed but refused to answer for reasons that are apparent if you watch the video. And this time the usual spectacle of the press yelling out over each other was absent.

Can it be that the lion shamed the jackals this time? Can it be that the blatant contrast between themselves and those who serve being made so nakedly obvious made them, for the first time perhaps, see themselves for who they really are?

A must watch video.

Bumped Up: Viral Egyptian Video Reveals How Deeply Obama Is Hated There

This video, by popular Egyptian recording artist Sama Elmasry titled “You Obama, Your Father, Mother,” is going viral in Egypt and getting heavy airplay all over the Middle East.

Catchy little tune...And I'm bumping it up as a preview of my upcoming piece on what's really going on in Egypt, what the legacy media isn't telling you. You don't play a part in fomenting violence and destabilizing a country without some blowback.

It cusses out the president, his mother and his father out for his enabling of the Muslim Brotherhood, tells him exactly what to do with his threats to cut off aid and for good measure accuses him of being a Jew towards the end.

In Egypt, where anti-semitism is a popular sport, there's no worse thing an Egyptian can call you.

Oh, by the way, 'the old bitch' referred to in the video is Ambassador Anne Patterson, also a notable Brotherhood appeaser and supporter.

At the same time, the Brotherhood and their fellow Islamists are angry at Obama for not getting Morsi and his pals freed from custody and for not helping the al-Qaeda and Brotherhood led rebels in Syria.

Yes, once again our absolute genius of a president and his superb foreign policy team have succeeded in antagonizing both sides of a conflict! Epic Obamafail.

Egyptian Video Cursing Obama For Backing The Muslim Brotherhood Goes Viral

Would People Sign A Petition to Legalize Abortion On Demand After Birth?

Of course they would, especially on one of America's college campuses...like George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. After all, if President Obama supports exactly the same kind of infanticide...


Reporter Dan Joseph says he got 14 signatures on a petition after one hour. “That is a lot for the summer because there aren’t as many people on campus,” he says in the video. I imagine he could have done even better in California, New York or Massachusetts.

And no, he didn't represent what the petition was about either. He explained that to the students he asked to sign that it was demanding lawmakers legalize “fourth trimester” abortions to “ send a message to our lawmakers that women have the right to choose what to do with their bodies and babies” even “after their pregnancies.”.

“If you don’t know what fourth trimester is, it’s after the baby is already born.” Joseph added.

You have to wonder what these students are being taught.

Must See - Krauthammer At his Best

Here's a real treat.

The always thought provoking and stimulating pulitzer prize winning columnist and renowned commentator  Dr. Charles Krauthammer spoke yesterday at a symposium sponsored by the National Review in Washington DC entitled 'Challenges Facing Conservatives' and had a number of things to say well worth hearing. C-SPAN broadcast the event, and Dr. Krauthammer's segment is available at the above link.

He speaks for about an hour, and the segment, sparked by questions from moderator Rich Lowrey and a Q&A session with the audience is well worth your time. Among other things, he addresses exactly why Romney lost the election, why he feels optimistic about the future of conservatism in America and what he sees in the future.

Highly recommended if you have any interest in the above topics.

Fascinating Video: Yesh Atid's Yair Lapid OnThe Haredim

This is probably mostly of interest to the Tribe, but is extremely valuable for anyone else who wants to understand Israel.

The big surprise in the Israeli elections was the success of TV Newscaster Yair Lapid's new party, Yesh Atid ('There is a Future'), which won 19 mandates and is almost certain to be part of PM Benyamin Netanyahu's new governing coalition.

Lapid already did one thing that impressed me when Israel's parties on the Left wanted him to agree to  block Netanyahu even if he wasn't going to join them to form a government.He refused outright, and publicly, saying that those tactics wouldn't be good for Israel. OK, a bit self-serving since he was probably planning to go into the government anyway, but the fact that he said it publicly meant something, as did the fact that he did it quickly and didn't milk it for a few days.

Yesh Atid is primarily a  secular, centrist party whose big issues were economic relief for Israel's middle class, along with universal conscription and a curtailment of draft exemptions for the Haredim.

The above 2012 lecture by Lapid was given at the Haredi branch of the college at Kiryat Ono, one of several institutions created to allow the Haredi to pursue academic degrees while observing their religious requirements.I agree with a large part of what he had to say here, but more importantly, it gives a real insight into what Lapid's views are and how he thinks.

This is looking more and more like a good match for  Netanyahu and and the makings of a strong and positive Center Right coalition, especially if Netanyahu  brings Naftali Bennett and Bayit Yehudi into it, and perhaps even United Torah Judaism and their 7 mandates, provided the inevitable horsetrading aspect works out.

Hang On, Abigail, The Election's Almost Over

I think Abigail speaks for a lot of us. We want this thing over and done with. Actually, NPR actually apologized after someone (mom, probably) let them know that one of their reports made the little girl cry.

Don't worry sweetie. G-d willing, not just the election but 'bronco bamma' will be over soon too and NPR will have to start paying its own way instead of adding to the $180,000 worth of debt you were saddled with that you had nothing to say about.

Video: Why A Young Jewish Democrat Changed Her Views On Obama

This new, 18-minute mini-documentary follows the journey of Irina, a 23-year-old liberal, Jewish New Yorker who voted for Obama in 2008. Yet as she has learned more about the President's policies across the Middle East and towards Israel in particular, Irina has changed her views dramatically. Definitely worth the watch.

Code Pink's Vagina Protest At The RNC Convention...

Code Pink and their assorted groupies staged an opening day protest yesterday in Tampa...dressed as vaginas.

(warning, language)

At least this time, they're not raising money for people that are shooting at out troops or taunting wounded verterans at Walter Reed.

One of the more interesting comments was from one woman who claimed 'we're the majority in America'.

You know what? In her upscale, far left neighborhood in Marin, Berkeley, Madison, Cambridge, Manhattan or Hyde Park, she's entirely correct. This is exactly how many of these people think, if that's the right word for it.They live in a bubble and rarely ever encounter anyone with different views.

Must See: Intel, Special Ops Vets Hit Obama Hard Over 'Dishonorable Disclosures'

Even some Democrats have voiced concern over national security leaks out of the Obama Administration that severely damage our military and intelligence capabilities.

OpSec is a super PAC composed of former intelligence and military special-ops professionals. While the group claims to be non-partisan, it's pretty obvious they are not overly fond of President Barack Obama's performance on defense and national security issues, especially when it comes to deliberately leaking important information for political purposes - and as far as I'm concerned, with good reason. The above video, 'Dishonorable Disclosures', which has had over 400,000 views does an excellent job of clarifying why.

It's 22 minutes well spent.
