Afterburner with Bill Whittle: Cannibals

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCz3H5paADQ

From YouTube:

In his first Afterburner since the election, Bill Whittle weighs in. Now that Barack Obama has been reelected president, ObamaCare is certain to remain unchanged. Bill thinks this is the first step towards massive tax increases, socialized health care, and a citizenry more dependent on the federal government than ever. So although the foreseeable future of our great country may seem grim, hear why Bill thinks patriots must continue to fight the good fight for the duration.

Suppressive Fire For the Irregular War-Fighter

Posted on November 12, 2012 by DRenegade

Tactically speaking, to be most effective, at a minimum, half your element should be providing accurate, precision suppressive fire. Ideally, it should be more like 2/3 to 3/4 of the element firing, as the maneuver element moves. In his classic work “Infantry Attacks,” Erwin Rommel (arguably, one of the finest tactical thinkers in the history of warfare, and certainly in the last century) describes a number of attacks he led as a young lieutenant in World War One. His assault element was always notably smaller than his suppression element, and the disparity grew as his experience increased. The key however, was that his suppressive fire elements always had their fires directed at SPECIFIC enemy positions on the target. Control and direction of organic fires is certainly one of the most critical key leader tasks, if not THE most critical. You need to know how to direct your subordinates’ fires, as well as where to direct those fires.

Israel Continues Shelling Of Syrian Targets For Second Consecutive Day

Posted on November 12, 2012 by DRenegade

When we reported yesterday that following “recurring” “provocations” by the Syrian military, which is so very confused who it wants to declare war on first – NATO member Turkey, or best US friend Israel, it is pressing on both fronts, even as it continues to be torn by CIA funded, and Al Qaeda stoked civil war, which saw Israel launch a missile into Syrian territory for the first time since 1973,we said, “It goes without saying that this is merely the first proverbial shot across the  bow, or in this case the DMZ. Much more to follow, until finally the UN rules, and the fair and objective media backs it, that the time to invade liberate Syria has come.” Sure enough, less than 24 hours later…

  • ISRAELI MILITARY REPORTS `DIRECT HITS’ ON SYRIA TARGETS: AP

And the smoking gun, er, rocket: “Grad rocket that struck Netivot factory moments ago” – the text “not fired by the CIA, Al Qaeda, Israel intelligence, or Syrian rebels and purely the doing of evil, evil Assad” is plainly visible.

This Is Easy

Posted on November 11, 2012 by DRenegade

The outcries of voter fraud are increasing exponentially. In my case, I was actually happy that Obama won with a mandate: only because the issue of voter fraud could not be heralded across the land. However I was wrong. Here is the website tracking voter fraud:

Barack Obama Voter Fraud 2012

 

At present, Obama is leading Romney by 2,825,267 votes which is a substantial amount. Of course our republic picks its president by the electoral college, not the popular vote. Let me be clear, neither Romney or Obama will save the country from economic collapse so the outcome of the election is still the same regardless. And shame on both of them and the political parties for not addressing the issues in the campaign or debates such as the lack of a federal budget, the true size of our debt ($220 trillion) or how entitlements have bankrupted our nation.

But if someone wants to be effective and try to change the election, you have to be realistic. Let’s start with Florida as an example: Continue reading →

Treason? You Decide …

Posted on November 11, 2012 by Roth Harbard

We have all heard emotional charges that various public officials are ‘traitors’ or are guilty of ‘treason’. Most of us either concur, out of an emotional ‘knee-jerk’ response, or else consider the charge ridiculous on its face, all depending on our partisan position.

Our exercise in logic today is a simple one. Let’s consider the issue of treason allegedly committed by various of our public officials from a position of reason rather than emotion. First, let’s define our terms, then we can connect our ‘dots’.

Treason 1. Violation of allegiance toward one’s country or sovereign, esp. the betrayal of one’s country by waging war against it or by consciously and purposely acting to aid its enemies. 2. A betrayal of trust or confidence.

The United States Constitution – the foundational law of the United States of America.

The Oath of Office: “… to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”

Question #1: When one elected to public office places his or her hand on a Bible and swears before God and his/her fellow citizens to protect and defend the Constitution, and then proceeds to write or support legislation in direct violation of that Constitution or issues executive orders in direct violation of that Constitution, or fails to defend the Constitution against those who do,  is that not a direct betrayal of trust or confidence? And, if that is a direct betrayal of trust that said official will uphold his/her oath to protect and defend the Constitution, does that not qualify as treason?

Question #2: Can you name a Federal elected official not guilty of treason? A state official? A local official?

Question #3: Assuming you’re having difficulty answering question #2 in the affirmative for at least a simple majority of said elected officials, what do you intend to do about it?

Remember, “Freedom isn’t free.”

Palestinian missiles again rain down on Israel after injuring 4 Israeli soldiers

Posted on November 10, 2012 by DRenegade
Wounded Israeli soldier on way to hospital.

Wounded Israeli soldier on way to hospital.

Violence spewed out of the Gaza Strip again Saturday night, Nov. 10, with a rocket attack on an IDF Givaty Brigade jeep on a routine task some distance from the border, injuring four Israeli soldiers – one critically, two in moderate condition. This time Hamas’ contractor was the Palestinian Popular Front. After Israeli tanks and helicopters fired back, the Palestinians loosed rockets against the Eshkol and Shear Hanegev districts, followed by Grad rockets aimed at Ashkelon, Ashdod and Gan Yavneh. Iron Dome intercepted two. Locations north of Ashdod as far north as Gedera went on missile alert. No more casualties are reported thus far.

Thursday, Nov. 8, Palestinian terrorists detonated by remote a tunnel packed with explosives  against a group of Israeli soldiers. None were hurt. The soldiers were searching for bombs rigged as booby-traps for use against their comrades. IDF units in the Gaza sector have been on high alert since before then as Palestinian attacks have kept on coming in an escalating spate – eight from Oct. 8 until this Saturday.

But before that, on Oct. 6, two days after an Iranian stealth drone flew over Israel, Hamas loosed its heaviest barrage ever of 60 rockets and missiles against the Eshkol district. The IDF made no response this this outrage.

Cover-up at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue

Posted on November 10, 2012 by DRenegade

According to two well-vetted sources with intimate knowledge of the CIA operations and events in Benghazi, the resignation of CIA Director David Petraeus is directly related to the testimony he was expected to provide before a closed-door hearing next week before the Senate Intelligence Committee. Sources close to the controversy, citing the need for anonymity due to their positions, stated that Barack Hussein Obama was aware of the CIA director’s indiscretions “long before” the November 6, 2012 elections, and knew about the FBI’s investigative findings weeks before the election, but “erected a firewall” to prevent any disclosure before November 6th.

“What I do know is that an integral part of that firewall involved having information on Petraeus that would potentially damage his career, legacy and marriage. A sort of political blackmail, if you will. What I don’t know, but suspect, is that Petraeus was placed in the unenviable but self-inflicted position of having to choose between providing truthful testimony under oath and having his professional and personal life destroyed while systematically being impeached due to this incident, or keeping quiet before the Senate Intelligence Committee,” stated one source.

A second intelligence source stated that “the announcement [of Petraeus’ resignation] was carefully timed. It was announced in a Friday afternoon news dump three days after the election, and days before the Senate Intelligence Committee was to hear his testimony, despite the President having knowledge of these events weeks ago. Friday’s announcement served two purposes; it kept controversy from emerging before the election, while allowing the administration to buy time regarding testimony by a federalofficial about CIA’s involvement in Benghazi.”

James Turk on the Overestimated Gold Stock, the German Repatriation, and an EU Crisis!

Posted on November 10, 2012 by DRenegade

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?fv=vKx4NJjsC4w

According to an essay published by the Gold Money Foundation, the stock of gold is over-estimated by sixteen-thousand tons, with a nominal value of over 800 billion dollars. We ask James about his piece, about the German gold repatriation,  and why it matters.

What Does the Militia Mean to You?

Posted on November 10, 2012 by DRenegade

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Most people fear what they do not understand. Ignorance is the worst excuse for the loss of our Liberty. The second amendment’s first section is often overlooked: “a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State”. The role of the militia is simple: to protect the people from the federal government. Although very few people understand that this is its purpose, our founding fathers knew very well that a central government eventually becomes tyrannical and implements laws, regulations and in our case executive orders to control the people and steal our Liberty.

I received the following announcement today and was asked to post it. Consider the real role of the second amendment, the sacrifices of our founding fathers and mothers to give us Liberty and the consequences of despair, inaction and apathy. If you are willing to fight, fight for the right reasons. Greed, power and self-aggrandizement are poor substitutes for Liberty and our children’s future.

In order to answer the question posed by the title of this article, you must do some soul searching: once action is taken, you cannot walk away. As we have seen too often in the past, people talk but do not act. When people act, will you stand up or submit?

It Always Comes Back to Gold

Posted on November 10, 2012 by DRenegade

The following story is being overlooked or downplayed but its implications could be staggering. But then isn’t that what makes a black swan event?

Power is the goal and money is the tool to bring about both its inception and demise. If money is based on the full faith and credit of a government, the consequences are severe once a fiat currency is exposed and a new currency backed by tangible assets is released.

Exclusive: Bank Of England To The Fed: “No Indication Should, Of Course, Be Given To The Bundesbank…”

Over the past several years, the German people, for a variety of justified reasons, have expressed a pressing desire to have their central bank perform a test, verification, validation or any other assay, of the official German gold inventory, which at 3,395 tonnes is the second highest in the world, second only to the US. We have italicized the word official because this representation is merely on paper: the problem arises because no member of the general population, or even elected individuals, have been given access to observe this gold. The problem is exacerbated when one considers that a majority of the German gold is held offshore, primarily in the vaults of the New York Fed, and at the Bank of England – the two historic centers of central banking activity in the post World War 2 world.

Recently, the topic of German gold resurfaced following the disclosure that early on in the Eurozone creation process, the Bundesbank secretly withdrew two-thirds of its gold, or 940 tons, from London in 2000, leaving just 500 tons with the Bank of England. As we made it very clear, what was most odd about this event, is that the Bundesbank did something it had every right to do fully in the open: i.e., repatriate what belongs to it for any number of its own reasons – after all the German central bank is only accountable to its people (or so the myth goes), in deep secrecy. The question was why it opted for this stealthy transfer.

And Now, The Consequences

Posted on November 9, 2012 by DRenegade

From The Market Ticker:

It’s anecdotal thus far, but I don’t believe it will remain that way for long.

I am getting repeated reports of large layoff actions, both pending and immediate.  Some of these appear to be focused on the impact of Obamacare, some are small businesspeople who are simply quitting and closing up shop due to expected higher tax rates on a forward basis, and some are firms that were hanging on by the skin of their teeth that giving up the ghost.

Many of these folks appear to have held out a “last and final” hope that the Republicans would win and somehow change the dynamic.  This was a foolish premise — indeed, foolish beyond words, as the Republicans are the party of funny money just as are the Democrats.

The game of funny money has reached its terminus.

There are a number of commentators who have said that based on this model in the market or that Bernanke should be running QE at a rate that is “$X”, where the rate he’s running today is “$X – Y” (that is, much smaller.)  They’re missing something important — Bernanke is many things, including being an ideologue and self-deluded, but one thing he’s not is stupid.

The fact of the matter is that he knows full well that he has become the crutch upon which the US House and Senate can and have relied to evade their responsibility to produce any budget at all — say much less a balanced one.

The Fight For American Liberty – T.L Davis

Posted on November 9, 2012 by DRenegade

The sides now are clearly drawn. There will be no respite by a conservative voice. All that Obama has done in his first four years will be doubled and quadrupled in the next four years. Oppression like we have never seen; surveillance that we can neither fathom, nor counter.

Today is the day we have feared and awaited. There is no time to try and do anything legally, the very meaning of legality went out the window on Tuesday. The Obama Administration has demonstrated time and time again its willingness to do things illegally to oppress us, it is time that we turned the tables and allowed ourselves to do things illegally to throw off that oppression.

I recognize no federal law against gun ownership. I recognize no federal law against travel. I recognize no federal law against collaboration, or insurrection. If you are not ready to take this fight on directly, you are not a patriot, you are not a soldier for freedom.

We are faced with an internal enemy, a “domestic enemy” if you will, determined to use the very government of the United States to overthrow itself.
