“Admit it: These terrorists are Muslims”
Folk constantly demand that Muslims admit that these terrorists are Muslim. So I fully expect them to cheer self-described “counter-extremist” Muslim Maajid Nawaz from the Quilliam Foundation who, in what he calls “a plea to my fellow Muslims and liberals,” demands precisely that. [image: Maajid] *A puerile response by some of my fellow Muslims is to ask “why should we apologize for something that has nothing to do with us.” But this entirely misses the point. Just as we Muslims expect solidarity from wider society against anti-Muslim bigotry and racism, likewise we must ... more »

The Ventura 2014 Defamation Case Against The Kyle Family Has Been Overturn
*Star Tribune**:* *Court overturns verdict in Ventura defamation case* The U.S. Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday overturned a jury's decision to award $1.8 million to former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura in a 2014 defamation case. A three-judge panel unanimously threw out the $1.35 million award to Ventura for "unjust enrichment," saying Minnesota law did not permit it. And in a 2-1 decision, it reversed the $500,000 award for defamation, remanding the case to the district court for a new trial on that question. *Read more* .... *WNU Editor:* The Kyle family must be super... more »

A Look At China's Propaganda Plane

Now Beijing has a tool to help spread the word.* The Chinese military has a new warplane with an unusual purpose: to beam propaganda and disinformation into hostile territory.

Donald Trump-- A Truth-Free Zone... And Psychotic
Who would have ever thought David Brooks would be making more sense in the *NYTimes* than Paul Krugman? And we still have almost 5 months to go before we vote!

Both parties' address disunity behind the two least popular candidates in history by appealing to the need to win Congress, despite their own awful candidate *and* because the other party's candidate is surely the greater of two evils.

"Mundus Vult Decipi, Ergo Decipiatur."
"Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur," a Latin phrase, means "The world wants to be deceived, so let it be deceived." The saying is ascribed to Petronius, a Roman satirist from the first century, CE. "The pontifex maximus Scævola thought it expedient that the people should be deceived in religion; and the learned Varro said plainly, that "there are many truths, which it is useless for the vulgar to know; and many falsities which it is fit the people should not suppose are falsities."

As some noted, Ali's great contribution was not being a talented athlete, heavy weight champion-- there are many such prominent sports figures, but they don't play a historic role.

French police officials' murder 'is terrorism' per BBC News
This BBC report includes the assertion that when the Islamist terrorist shouts Allahu Akbar he means God is Great. *This is untrue.* Robert Spencer and others have explained over and over again what Allahu Akbar actually means. 'Media outlets routinely mangle the true meaning of "Allahu akbar," the ubiquitous battle cry of Islamic jihadists as they commit mass murder. The war-cry is mistranslated in the Western media as "God is great." But the actual meaning is "Allah is greater," meaning Allah Is Greater Than Your God or Government. It is the aggressive declaration that Allah and... more »
Inuits: Earth has Shifted, Sky has Changed
Inuit observers describe how their traditional understanding of weather patterns is being challenged by unpredictable weather behaviors. The elders declare that the sun rises at a different position now, not where it used to previously. They also have longer daylight to hunt now, the sun is much higher than earlier, and it gets warmer much quicker. Other elders across the north also confirmed the same thing about the sky changing. They also alleged that the position of sun, moon and stars have all changed causing changes in the temperature. This has also affected the wind and it i... more »

Groundbreaking Study Warns Cell Phones Cause Cancer
A new landmark study on the dangers of radiation has concluded that cell phones do cause cancer. The study looked at rats and mice who were dosed with cell phone radiation within the 900 – 1900 megahertz range, for 9 hours per day. Thedailysheeple.com reports: The exposure would last 10 minutes before being followed with a 10 minute break, for a total of 18 hours a day.

Park City Debate Topic: Who's To Blame For The Rise Of Trump?
*Ah... the good old days* What can we say about a bunch of rich Republican donors coming together at posh Stein Eriksen Lodge in Park City, Utah to moan about Donald Trump? These are a bunch of super-bad players and their pain is well-deserved, even if we sympathize with their disdain for Trump. There wasn't any talk over the weekend at the Romney summit about how they created the environment that proven such fertile soil for Trumpism with their support for a deranged, power-mad Republican Party and it's well-funded media/thank tank appendages. Meg Whitman admitted she'll probably v... more »

Icons Bundle of Holding
After my depressing last post, something a bit easier to digest. I don't do much in the way of pure advertising for a game, but I see that Icons is available at Bundle of Holding for the next two weeks (until June 28 if my math is right). I'm currently having a lot of fun running an Icons game, which makes it the first superhero RPG I've had last more than two sessions in ages. Ten percent of the money made (subtracting payment gateway fees) go to The Trevor Project, a group providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention for LGBT youth. I'd encourage you to give directly if... more »
Reflections on the Orlando Mass Murder
I've tried to keep my blog reasonably nonpolitical and in a way I find it sad that commenting on an act of murder and terror is a political act. Forty nine people were murdered early Sunday morning at the Pulse nightclub. The Pulse being a gay nightclub, they were almost certainly targeted due to their sexual identities. I don't know what to call it - an act of hate, an act of terror. I don't think it really matters what you call it. Forty nine lives were ended and their loved ones are left dealing with the horror of what happened. I've been wrestling with my own thoughts. They're l... more »
At JCU Collegiality overrules empirical evidence.
*James Cook University *has decreed that collegiality overrules empirical evidence. Let's examine these terms: *Collegiality* is the relationship between colleagues. Colleagues are those explicitly united in a common purpose and respecting each other's abilities to work toward that purpose. A colleague is an associate in a profession or in a civil or ecclesiastical office. Empirical evidence is information acquired by observation or experimentation. This data is recorded and analysed by scientists and is a central process as part of the scientific method. That's right, James Cook Un... more »

The Orlando False Flag Shooting: Even More Updates, And Why I Am Leaning On This Being A Massive Sandy Hook Style Hoax
I have been busy most of the day, and only now am able to finally get down to looking at this Orlando "shooting" closely... I want to thank so many commentators that have come forward with their takes on this incident... Many are also in the same belief as I am, in that this thing stinks to high heaven... First and foremost, I want to present a most excellent article that comes from a fellow real truth seeker, Jody, who of course writes the blog: "What They Don't Tell You" at www.jpaulson.blogspot.com... Her article is entitled: "Orlando Mass Shooting: This Is Just Ridiculous" and i... more »
No further need of explanation
This explains why the born in Amrerica man still loved Sharia law. It does not explain how annually and exscaltaity 6000 people in the USA are guned down without religious fevour. To stop the insanity we need to do two things 1) Your religion may work for you but keep it private. No public displays of affection and no tax breaks. 2) Ban any gun with more than 2 shots in the chamber. If you cant take down that charging Grizzly with two shots you should die.

Witnesses Describe Multiple Gunmen in Orlando Shooting False Flag
The dust has barely settled on the Orlando shooting but already it is clear there is a mainstream media cover up to deny the fact there were multiple co-ordinated gunmen involved in the attack, pointing to the event being an inside job by security agencies rather than the work of a lone wolf. A Facebook post today quoted a survivor of the attack saying ‘There are bits of information that the media are not telling us. There were two others that were in the club slaughtering people last night that were not caught.‘ This survivor’s testimony corroborates early mainstream media reports o... more »
