Jihadist serial killer murdered four in U.S., but was largely ignored by the media
164
By Mark Ellis
An
armed jihadist serial killer murdered at least four men in a killing
spree from April through June as acts of “vengeance” for Muslims killed
overseas by the United States, but his crimes were not covered
extensively by the media.
After his apprehension by police, Ali Muhammad Brown describ
ed
his June murder of Brendan Tevlin, 19, as a “just kill” and said it was
revenge to compensate for U.S. military killings in the Middle East,
according to court documents cited by the New York Daily News.
Brown
was also charged with fatally shooting three men in Seattle. All four
men were gunned down in remote areas late at night, reports said.
Brown
is a devout Muslim opposed to U.S. military action in the Middle East,
especially Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Iran, prosecutors said.
“All these lives are taken every single day by America, by this government. So a life for a life,” he told investigators.
Brown
said Tevlin’s shooting was a “just kill,” because he directed his
gunfire at an adult man and did not put any women or children in harm’s
way.
In police interviews, Brown described U.S.
military action in the Middle East as evil and said if a “man sees evil,
then he must take action against that evil,” court documents revealed.
While
he was on the run, Brown disguised himself in a Muslim keffiyeh, a
traditional Middle Eastern headdress that became an iconic symbol when
it was worn by Yasser Arafat as a symbol of Palestinian resistance. He
also carried a notebook with jihadist writings and advice on evading
detection, according to TownHall.com.
In his statements and writings he echoed Fort Hood mass killer Nidal Hasan.
Officials
said Brown fired 10 shots into Tevlin’s Jeep Liberty on June 25th when
it was stopped at intersection in West Orange, N.J. Then he stole
Tevlin’s car and drove it to a nearby apartment complex where it was
Jeep driven by Brendan Tevlin

Brown
was linked to the New Jersey shooting after police identified the
weapon used as the same one used in several Seattle killings.
Police
in Seattle said Brown used a dating application for gay men to lure
Dwone Anderson-Young and Ahmed Said to a Seattle nightclub on June 1st
before shooting them both at close range. Brown also shot and killed
30-year-old Leroy Henderson in April on a state road outside of the
city.
These men were "executed" by Brown after he picked them up at a gay bar

Seattle’s mayor, Ed Murray, issued a statement asserting that Brown’s views did “not reflect the values of Muslims.”
Police apprehended Brown last month hiding in an improvised camp near the Watchung Mountains of West Orange, New Jersey.
Another
militant Seattle jihadist, Muslim convert Ruben Shumpert (aka Amir
Abdul Muhaimin) was arrested after an FBI raid in 2004 for his role in a
terror-financing scheme. He fled his sentencing hearing and flew to
Somalia, where he was killed fighting the U.S. military. Terror group al
Shabaab described Muhaimin as a martyr following his death, according
to TownHall.com.
Brown was also arrested in 2004 for
his part in a Seattle bank fraud scheme. Police originally thought the
accused crime ring shipped stolen money overseas to terrorists, but that
claim was never backed up with enough evidence. Some believe Brown was
part of Muhaimin’s suspected terror-financing ring.

Surprise: Hamas commits war crimes
Surprise: Hamas commits war crimes:
Evidence Growing that Hamas Used Residential Areas as Cover for Firing Rockets at Israel
Two weeks after the end of the Gaza war, there is growing evidence that Hamas militants used residential areas as cover for launching rockets at Israel. Ahead of a UN investigation, the Israeli military has released reams of evidence, including satellite photos and aerial footage, to support its claims that it acted responsibly and attempted to minimize Palestinian casualties.
Throughout the war, the Israeli air force compiled dozens of video clips showing rockets flying out of residential neighborhoods, cemeteries, schoolyards and mosque courtyards. There are also images of weapons caches uncovered inside mosques.
During the fighting, many observers witnessed rocket launches from urban areas. One video distributed by AP captured a launch in downtown Gaza City that took place in a lot next to a mosque and an office of the Hamas prime minister. "I don't think there's any doubt urban areas were used to launch rockets from the Gaza Strip," said Bill Van Esveld, a senior researcher at Human Rights Watch. (AP-Washington Post)s. Of course they used Hillary Clinton's excuse for them "cramped quarters"

Cruz exposes anti Semites
Turns
out the Christian group where Ted Cruz was booed because he supported
Israel is funded and organized by vicious anti Semites . Kudos to Cruze
for exposing them in this way. Dumisani Washington Free Beacon.
"The conference on Wednesday funded by a controversial Clinton donor that will feature pro-Hezbollah and pro-Assad speakers in Washington, D.C. …
The roster of speakers includes some of the Assad regime’s most vocal Christian supporters, as well as religious leaders allied with the Iranian-backed terrorist group Hezbollah. …
Funding for the conference was provided by Clinton donor and Lebanese-Nigerian billionaire Gilbert Chagoury, according to organizers. The wealthy businessman pledged $1 billion to the Clinton Global Initiative in 2009.
Chagoury is also reportedly backer of Lebanese politician Michel Aoun, Hezbollah’s top Christian ally in the country, according to U.S. diplomatic cables published by WikiLeaks.
Maronite Patriarch Cardinal Bechara Raï, who was scheduled to speak during the same keynote slot as Cruz on Wednesday evening, has called Israel an “enemy state that is occupying Lebanese territory” and defended Hezbollah’s right to attack the Jewish state. …
Others at the summit have also aligned themselves with the Iranian-backed terrorist group. Syriac Orthodox Church Patriarch Moran Mor Ignatius Aphrem II posted photos from his meeting with a “high level delegation from Hezbollah” on his official Facebook page last week. …
Another conference speaker, Antioch Church patriarch Gregory III Laham has claimed a “Zionist conspiracy against Islam” is responsible for al Qaeda attacks on Iraqi Christians.
“It is actually a conspiracy planned by Zionism and some Christians with Zionist orientations, and it aims at undermining and giving a bad image of Islam,” Laham said in 2010, according to the Daily Star. …
A spokesperson for Cruz said the senator will still speak at the conference despite the controversial participants because he is committed to raising awareness about the persecution of Middle East Christians.
“Sen. Cruz is appearing at the In Defense of Christians event tonight because he wants to take every opportunity to highlight this crisis, the unspeakable persecution of Christians,” said Catherine Frazier. “America has been silent for far too long, and we need to speak with a united voice against this horror. Sen. Cruz is speaking to make the unequivocal point that religious bigotry in all its forms–be it targeting Christians, Jews, or minority Muslim sects–is an evil that must be exposed and combatted.

UN stores Hamas missiles, UN ambulances transport around Hamas fighters, Hamas uses UN buildings to shoot from and near, Hamas uses human shields, Hamas builds terror tunnels, Hamas sends 10,000 missiles at civilians.

DO NOT USE EBAY Pierre Omidyar, Glenn Greenwald, and Their War on Israel Gabriel Schoenfeld
DO NOT USE EBAY
Pierre Omidyar, Glenn Greenwald, and Their War on Israel Gabriel Schoenfeld
When it comes to Israel, The Intercept’s coverage crosses the line from opinion journalism to a crude and vile form of propaganda.
Published on September 9, 2014
Pierre Omidyar, founder and chairman of the auction site eBay, became a billionaire at the age of 31. Having made his fortune (his net worth is somewhere in the ballpark of $8 billion), the French-Iranian-American entrepreneur wants to give back. A decade ago, he established the Omidyar Network, an institution that is part venture capital and part philanthropy, to help businesses and nonprofits that share a “commitment to advancing social good at the pace and scale the world needs today.”
The only product of First Look Media thus far is The Intercept, an online publication whose three founding editors are Jeremy Scahill, Laura Poitras, and Glenn Greenwald.
When it comes to the Middle East, however, The Intercept’s slant becomes far more pronounced. While the war between Israel and Hamas was raging, for instance, it published around a half-dozen pieces about Gaza that proffered a one-sided view, to put it in the most generous possible terms.
In one of those articles for instance (“Cash, Weapons, and Surveillance: the U.S. is a Key Party to Every Israeli Attack“), we learn that the war, which in fact began with the Hamas kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teenagers and then rocket fire from Gaza directed at Israeli civilian centers, supposedly began as the result of an “Israeli attack on Gaza.” The “aggression” was sponsored by the “indispensable, direct involvement of the U.S. government,” which “has long lavished overwhelming aid on Israel, providing cash, weapons and surveillance technology,” all of which “enable Israel’s military assaults” and its “massacres” of Gaza’s “trapped civilian population.”
In another piece (“Terrorism in the Israeli Attack on Gaza”) we are instructed that the term “terrorism” is much misused. Indeed, as applied to Hamas and the Palestinians, it is nothing more than a “fear-mongering slogan.” Israel is the party using “massive, brutal force against a trapped civilian population, overwhelmingly killing innocent men, women and children,” and if anyone deserves to be called terrorists, it is the Israelis. “The most generous claim one can make about what Israel is now doing in Gaza,” writes Greenwald in yet another contribution, “is that it is driven by complete recklessness toward the civilian population it is massacring.”
Augmenting this commentary is Greenwald’s prolific Twitter output (at last count, more than 48,000 tweets), in which his hatred of the Jewish state takes its most pristine form:
At no moment did Greenwald or The Intercept pause to make judgments about the rockets Hamas fired at civilian targets across Israel, the tunnels it constructed into Israel packed with motorcycles and weapons to kidnap and kill, Hamas’s use of hospitals and schools as military positions and ambulances to ferry fighters, or any of the other clear violations of the laws of war carried out by jihadi extremists in Gaza. To be sure, The Intercept makes no pretense of being a neutral news organization reporting on a war, but it cannot properly be called opinion journalism either; its one-sidedness is so flagrant and relentless that it easily traverses the line separating argumentation from propaganda.
The propaganda in question is a stream of venom and denunciation directed toward the democracy that is Israel, and a similar stream of extenuation and denial about the terroristic activities of Hamas and affiliated jihadist groups, while also maintaining a deafening silence about the various Islamic and secular butchers from Iraq to Syria to Libya who have turned much of the Middle East into a slaughterhouse.

Obama's speech to Isis
Obama's speech on isis
1. Glad he's pretending at least, to be engaged in this limited way. He did a 180 about face, after saying the war on terror is over, pretending al quida is vanquished, calling Isis Jv and manageable. He obviously did it because the polls show he is falling faster and faster and Americans do not feel safe. Does anyone believe Obama will stick with this 3 months from now when America turns its attention to something else? Who really believes this can be done without ground troops?
2. GW Bush prophesied in 2007 Isis would happen if we pulled out totally from Iraq and it happened exactly as predicted. We keep troops in Korea and Germansy for decades. Now Obama will cause the same result in Afghanistan.
3. Islam was based on violence! Obama lies about it.
Obama's "not Islamic" Islamic State Claim Ridiculed
http://www.investigativeproject.org/4563/obama-not-islamic-islamic-state-claim-ridiculed.
President Obama's assertion Wednesday night that the Islamic State terrorist group "is not 'Islamic'" is drawing derision from a number of quarters. Author Sam Harris, an atheist who challenges all religions, went further, dismissing Obama's argument as a "scrim of pretense and delusion." "Which will come first, flying cars and vacations to Mars, or a simple acknowledgment that beliefs guide behavior and that certain religious ideas—jihad, martyrdom, blasphemy, apostasy—reliably lead to oppression and murder?" The Quran includes numerous passages encouraging violent jihad and inspiring hatred of non-believers, Harris notes. Robert Spencer offers specific examples here, and asks why the Islamic State has become such a magnet for wannabe jihadists if it was not seen as inherently Islamic. But instead of acknowledging those verses and debating their modern application, the president used a nationally televised speech to act as if they do not exist. Harris blames "a large industry of obfuscation designed to protect Muslims from having to grapple with these truths." It's a difficult sell, Pipes concludes, because of the clear theological statements and justifications Islamic State terrorists invoke for their brutality. "Anyone with eyes and ears realizes that the Islamic State, like the Taliban and al-Qaeda before it, is 100 percent Islamic. And most Westerners, as indicated by detailed polling in Europe, do have eyes and ears. Over time, they are increasingly relying on common sense to conclude that the group is indeed profoundly Islamic
4. He could not resist the added emphasis here that again, there would be no ground combat role. Never tell your enemies what you will not do, Mr. President.
