According to information gleaned from a senior source in the Iranian armed forces joint chief of staff, logistical support for the groups that would participate in the plan comes from Brigadier General Qassim Suleimani of the Revolutionary Guards al Quds Brigades. "Most of Iran's visitors in the last four months, including the heads of Hezbollah cells in the Persian Gulf and Europe and North America were asked, when they met with the Iranian intelligence minister and his aides: Are you ready to defend the Islamic revolution? "If you agree to take part in the great Jihad, what would you need to be ready for the great fight?...
Mr. RR and I (and our son) travel alot internationally with our business. Last year we were flying from Bucharest (Tarom Airlines) to Frankfurt when all of a sudden, the pilot came on and announced we were taking an unscheduled trip to Amsterdam on our way to Frankfurt???? Upon landing in Amsterdam, a "sheik" in white garb, several veiled woman, and a slew of children exited the plane. I don't know who they were, but there were television cameras awaiting their arrival in The Netherlands. They must have had some power to commandeer our aircraft and direct its destination. There were a bunch of really upset passengers on our plane.....lots of missed connecting flights. (ours included)
The power these guys exert amazes me. I'm afraid everyone is fearful of offending them. I guess money really talks.
Eventually something else will "talk" and it won't be money.
The Europeans are quickly shifting on this issue; not their media or politicians, but the common folk.
Two blogs I read are Gates of Vienna and The Brussels Journal, both of which are covering this shift.
"Fjordman" is a blogger whose posts can be read on Gates of Vienna. He is documenting the low level intifada already taking place in Europe where rape is a weapon.
Having lived in both North Africa and in Sub-Sahara Africa, I am not a racist, but I have nothing but contempt for Islam, and will do everything I can to make these practioners uncomfortable in my country.
Thanks for the info. I shall check out those "blogs".
Islam, so far, is not a serious problem where we live. But I know it is growing in most of this country. So, I am ever watchful.
What were you doing in Africa? Not nosey, just curious.
I lived in Libya at the time of Gadhaffi's coup in 1969. One of my friends (the son of the CIA station Chief in Tripoli) burned CIA files in his father's office.
Few acquaintences know of my childhood, as most people hearing my stories would not believe them.
I have found a simpatico with the posters on FR.
Bigotry based on evidence is not bigotry.
That explains why everyone, enemies and liberal "allies" were scared of Reagan. He was one of us.
I believe Ms. Thatcher was made of sterner stuff than this as well.
Universal healthcare?
Dr. Oppenheimer and General Groves admiring
the desert glass
Don't Worry Pelosi is going to Syria to fix everything!
Lets plan toast time around a Congressional fact finding mission to Iran
That's the way I see it too.
Please just take a look at General Groves... Today he could not pass the "Pretty Boy GQ General Test" hell he could not even be in the Armed Forces of the United States
Of course he was one of only around 300 Generals and Admirals in command of 15 million GIs in WWII.
Today things are much tougher with 1.5 Million Active GIs now it requires 900 GQ Generals and Admirals all fit trim and well polished.
Please just take one more look at General Groves...
BMI Index..................Too fat

General Groves was an engineer. The closest he got to combat was a brief tour in France in 1918. His assignment immediately prior to the bomb had been to oversee the construction of a large five-sided office building next to the Potomac to house the armed forces' burgeoning bureaucracy. Done in 16 months for $83 million. I wonder what KBR would charge today?
>Why hasn't anyone screamed about the iranians trespassing into Iraqi waters where they kidnapped the brits?<
Huh-uh. Screaming not allowed. No speekadaenglias. And English suffering long term laryngitus.
