Until recently, the United States had become complacent about terrorism. The general view was that al Qaeda was on the run and Islamic terrorism was a receding threat. We now know better.
Counter-Finance Campaign Won't Beat Terrorists in Yemen
Italian Press: Terrorists Network. This is how Al-Qaeda Keeps the U.S. under threat.
Apprehending members of MS-13 who sneak through the border is okay by Napolitano and Holder, witness their attempt to go after Sheriff Joe who tries to keep these thugs off America's streets and out of America's neighborhoods:
AG Holder looks to nail America's Sheriff Joe Arpaio
Snip: In 2009, Secretary Napolitano stripped Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff's Department of its federal authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants based solely on their immigration status. Federal authorities wish to do away with local cops enforcing our nation's immigration laws.
Snip: early 2008, an official at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security sent a report to his superiors detailing what he called "the most significant development in the criminal exploitation of aircraft since 9/11."
The document warned that a growing fleet of rogue jet aircraft was regularly crisscrossing the Atlantic Ocean. On one end of the air route, it said, are cocaine-producing areas in the Andes controlled by the leftist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia. On the other are some of West Africa's most unstable countries.
Anybody remember the 747 that was stolen somewhere in Africa, repainted, never found, and the owner was never seen or heard from again?
This article just reminded me of that. The story just sort of faded away.

Snip: It is worth noting that al-Qaeda in the south of Yemen is uniquely combined with the tribal structure (explaining the protection al-Awlaki is being offered), but it is worth noting that al-Awlakis influence is greater among non-Arabic speakers. In Arabic language jihadi forums, Anwar al-Awlakis writings are very rare as most of them are in English and more Western-oriented. They are made available in different e-libraries and Islamic e-bookshops in the United States and the UK, where his radical views form a major resource for non-Arabic speaking Muslims, especially in the West.
Toronto 18 ringleader says he's sorry
Snip: "I will turn myself around, from a man of destruction to a man of construction," said Zakaria Amara, the linchpin of the so-called Toronto 18 homegrown terror cell, while addressing a Brampton court at his sentencing hearing Thursday.
Jihadi on recce nabbed at Wagah
Snip: The Pakistani youth was arrested by BSF as he was carrying out a recce of the border belt. Further investigations are in progress, BSF Punjab Frontier DIG Jagir Singh said. According to BSF DIG Mohammad Aquil, Arshad was found secretly monitoring the movements of BSF near border pillar number 101/8. He confessed that he was looking for a place to infiltrate through the border fence and help seven others to cross into India. He is a potential suicide bomber.
That’s the first thing I thought of when I read this story.
We knew about MS13 etal before they were so ensconced here! THEY never listen to us! NONE of em. Sheriff Joe Arpaio was OUR very first Hero! A hearty Bump to Sheriff Joe and prayers for God to give him the courage he’ll need against THIS lousy administration!

Terrorism is Obama's main political vulnerability
Terrorism has suddenly emerged as the main political vulnerability of President Obama and the Democrats as the new year begins.

Political correctness - a deadly infection
Snip: Radical Muslims are fanatic, yes, but they understand us better than we understand ourselves. They know were so infected with political correctness that were more afraid of offending them than we are of losing a war to them.

Snip: Jury selection in the "Lady Al Qaeda" trial got off to a bizarre start Wednesday with the accused terrorist telling jurors she was "boycotting" - and demanding Jews be excluded from the panel.
We knew we were in deep doo-doo when he won. Shoot even biden gleefully announced we were going to have an attack very soon.

Code Pink To Muslims: Help Us Cleanse Our Country
(Excellent Read!)
The fundamental question that a people must ask is whether they want to be independent of their government, or dependent on it?. Is government to be a tool that we use when we need it and put away when we don't, or a master that oversees our affairs and uses us as its tools.
The tipping point between tool and master kicks in when government gains the ability to expand its own parameters independently of the people. It's that moment when Mickey Mouse realizes the brooms aren't going to stop and Dr. Frankenstein realizes the monster isn't going to sit down and have tea with him after all.
