Jonathan Manthorpe: Saudi Arabia Funding Fuels Jihadist Terror It belongs to Saudi Arabia. Over more than two decades, Saudi Arabia has lavished around $100 billion or more on the worldwide promotion of the violent, intolerant and crudely puritanical Wahhabist sect of Islam that the ruling royal family espouses. The links of the Boston bombers and the London butchers to organizations following the Saudi royal family’s religious line are clear. One of the two London butchers, Nigerian-born Michael Adebolajo, was radicalized by the cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri, who headed the outlawed terrorist group Al-Muhajiroun. The group follows Wahhabist teachings and advocates unifying all Muslims, forcibly if necessary, under a single fundamentalist theocratic government.

The crocodile tears of Samantha Power Back in 2002, Power apparently  upset  those sensitive souls in the Zionist lobby when she dared to suggest that the US should impose a “solution” in Palestine.

Writing in The Huffington Post, Shmuley Boteach — apparently the “most famous rabbi in America” — recently  bragged  of how he convinced the Zionist lobby to trust Power. Boteach arranged for Power to meet 40 top lobbyists. During the encounter, “tears streamed down her cheeks,” he wrote, as Power insisted that her comments had been misconstrued.

Iraq’s Shi’ite South Targeted: 54 Killed, 174 Wounded -- Antiwar.com A surge in attacks that began last month resumed after several days of relatively light violence.

Putin: Lets Not Arm Those Organ-Eating Syrian Rebels -- News from Antiwar.com Eating the hearts of your enemies isn’t just unsanitary and a gross violation of Muslim dietary laws, but also a pretty clear indication that a person is a little too into the mass murder aspect of the civil war. Which has President Vladimir Putin openly warning against arming these sorts of rebels in the latest US-led push to start funneling weapons into the country,  admonishing EU officials for supporting rebels who spurn the “humanitarian values” of Europe.
