Federal creation of Micro-Terrorist bomb threats leads to the burning of Oregon mosque and nationwide fear of retaliation against specifically Somalian Muslims.

This article says it all or at least, it says it finally...down toward the bottom that no one reads...it relates the real news that a mosque was set on fire. That actually happened.

The terrorist incident didn't and in fact was literally set up and sponsored by the federal law enforcement agencies tasked with keeping Islamophobia alive and kicking in underwear and in our lightbulbs. Everything from the empty garbage cans and inert blast caps to the van that was driven to the CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTING ceremony was provided by the dark hairy hand of the GOV.

"VATICAN CITY – Pope Benedict XVI formally created 24 new cardinals on Saturday amid cheers in St. Peter's Basilica, bringing a mostly Italian group into the elite club that will eventually elect his successor."

"Interrogators began “bad muslim” theme. Ran “circumstantial evidence” theme."

"Detainee was taken to bathroom and walked 10 minutes. Detainee offered water
– refused. Interrogators covered the resistance techniques he had used and asked him to perform the “crazy Mohammed” facial expressions again. Detainee began to cry. Interrogators recounted the “emotional Mohammed” from earlier in the session and the detainee became stoic again."

"Detainee began to cry during pride and ego down. Detainee was reminded that no one loved, cared or remembered him. He was reminded that he was less than
human and that animals had more freedom and love than he does. He was taken
outside to see a family of banana rats. The banana rats were moving around
freely, playing, eating, showing concern for one another. Detainee was compared
to the family of banana rats and reinforced that they had more love, freedom, and concern than he had. Detainee began to cry during this comparison."

"Head break and 10 minute exercise. Interrogator allowed detainee to choose a
topic to talk about. Detainee wanted to talk about dinosaurs. Interrogator gave
history of dinosaurs and talked about the meteor that wiped them out, and equated
this event with nuclear war. Detainee expresses great ignorance about dinosaurs
and space, topics that are taught in U.S. grade schools. Detainee asked
interrogator if the sun revolved around the earth."

PM Netanyahu's Speech at the General Assembly in New Orleans Part_1

Some Good Pomes for my birthday. I listened to them while nibbling on leftover Kibbe Suniyeh i.e. Kibbe in Pan. Kibbe was constructed out of a beautiful filet (Halal) purchased at Babylon Market in Tucson (boy did I pay alot for this hunk of fresh beef). This was a truly beautiful piece of meat. This is ground into a near puree and combined with Kibbe Base. Kibbe Base is made by grinding an onion, several radishes, a hot pepper (any type) and a sweet pepper plus some fine bulghur with a liberal couple of spoons of ground "camooni" which is a conconction of cumin, allspice, mint, rosehips, cardommon, cinnamon bark, black peppercorns...and some other stuff actually. So, this is mushed up into a giant blob of raw meat with wheat and spices and all of that stuff......you have to eat some of that raw too while preparing the dish (called Kibbe Naye at that stage and it is oh so delicious)....so then you fry up some ground meat (preferably halal) with some onions, hot pepper, sweet pepper in olive oil and season it with cinnamon and allspice and salt....so this is placed between two layers of the Kibbe (from filet and patted into adobe like layers) and you bake it for 20 minutes or so....helps to brush some olive oil on top of the whole mess. So...it's pretty good the day you make it but the real treat is to eat it COLD the next day. Oh and I forgot..throw in some pine nuts when you fry the ground meat....this is really important. Also put some pine nuts on top of the whole thing...slash diamond like cuts across the top and place one or two nuts in each diamond so it looks like the real deal.

Goes great with some nice hot coffee (perc'd in an old Pyrex stovetop) and some Jim Pomes. Nice start to a birthday if you ask me.
