Khartoum threatens Israel after Iranian generals examine missile factory rubble

Sudan claims Israeli ordnance found at bomb site

Sudan claims Israeli ordnance found at bomb site

Sudanese President Omar Bashir pledged decisive steps against “Israeli interests which are now legitimate targets.”  He spoke Saturday, Oct. 27 after a team of Iranian generals completed a secret examination of the rubble left of the Khartoum Shehab ballistic missile factory after an air attack on Oct. 24.

Israeli officials have refused to comment on the attack. However, Sudanese Information Minister Ahmed Belal Othman said “military experts” who surveyed what was left of the Yarmouk Industrial Complex had determined that it was destroyed by Israel-made missiles.

The minister added that no country in the region besides Israel owns the sophisticated weapons used in the attack.

He also confirmed that Khartoum international airport’s radar system was disabled during the raid, confirming the claim made by Iranian sources the next day.
Othman did not identity the “military experts” who examined the residue at the bomb site or explain how they were able to identify the weapons used. However, DEBKAfile’s military sources disclose that those experts were Iranian military chiefs of the highest ranks:  Iranian Air Force Chief Brig. Gen. Hassan Shah-Safi; Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Forces Brig. Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh; Deputy Air Force Commander Brig. Gen. Aziz Nasirzadeh; and Commander of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Air Defense Base Brig. Gen. Farzad Esmaili.

The exalted ranks of these officers, sent secretly and post haste to Khartoum after the incident, attested to the extreme consternation caused in Tehran by the missile factory’s destruction and its importance to Iran’s regional military organization for a potential US or Israeli attack.

40 million tons of weapons and arms were shipped out of Libya to Syria

World War III is about to start. And Obama’s foreign policy failure(s) in Benghazi, Turkey and Syria will be the catalyst. The following information shows that 40 million tons of weapons were shipped to rebels in Syria (al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood) via Turkey by this administration. This is the reason why the old adage “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” is a fallacious argument: al Qaeda is the enemy and there is no justification for arming them. Ask any soldier who has served or is serving in Afghanistan concerning this simple fact.

As more facts emerge concerning the Benghazi tragedy, at least the following information makes some sense for sacrificing one ambassador and three Americans in order to save a rescue team from certain death in a well organized ambush. As stated many times in the past, Putin is playing chess and Obama is playing checkers.

What will be the consequences in our elections? That is not the pressing question. What will be the consequences in Syria now that the rebel’s supply chain has been cut off? Assad stays in power, Russia keeps control of their Mediterranean naval bases, Iran has a closer presence to attack Israel and Obama has been shown once again to be impotent.

But back to the election fallout. If Obama wins reelection, impeachment proceedings will start after Congressional hearings in mid November. WWIII and/or civil unrest will be the only legacy of a failed presidency.

The hidden real truth about Benghazi

by Doug Hagmann

Based on information provided by my source and corroborated elsewhere, the official account by administration officials is a mosaic of lies that were necessary to cover the unpalatable truth of covert actions taking place in Libya, Syria, Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon. The primary objective of our covert actions was to secretly arm anti-Assad “rebels” in Syria by funneling arms from Libya to Syria via Turkey, with other destinations that included Jordan and Lebanon.  Regarding the threat to Stevens and the other murdered Americans, the truth will reformat the persistent question posed to government officials, from UN Ambassador Susan Rice to White House Spokesman Jay Carney and others from “how could you not have known” to “how could you have done these things?”

First, it is important to understand that Ambassador Stevens, Sean Smith, Glen Dougherty and Tyrone Woods were not killed at a consulate office in Benghazi—as there is not such office there. They died at one of the largest CIA operations centers in the Middle East, which was located in Benghazi and served as the logistics headquarters for arms and weapons being shipped out of the post-Qaddafi Libya.

Although the U.S. government insisted that Stevens was involved in securing and destroying the numerous caches of arms and weapons once under the control of Qaddafi, the operation was more complex than that. The visual accounts of weapons being destroyed were indeed real, but those weapons were not operational. The working weapons were actually separated and transported to holding facilities for their eventual use in Syria. Russia was fully aware of this operation and warned the U.S. not to engage in the destabilization of Syria, as doing so would endanger their national security interests. Deposing Assad, as despotic as he might be, and replacing him with a Muslim Brotherhood-led regime would likely lead to unrestrained Islamic chaos across the region.

The Turkish warning

According to my source, Ambassador Stevens was in Benghazi on September 11, 2012 to meet with his Turkish counterpart, who reportedly warned Stevens that the operation was compromised. They met in person so that Stevens could be shown overhead satellite images, taken by the Russians, of nefarious activities taking place in Turkey. But just what were these nefarious activities?

BENGHAZI – ANN BARNHARDT

Let’s quit the chickenshit dancing around here.The Obama regime has been running guns and BIGTIME armaments and munitions, including MANPADS, which are shoulder-launched surface-to-air missiles designed to shoot down commercial jetliners, to the Muslim Brotherhood. This is just Fast-and-Furious except that the people being armed are musloids tasked with reforming the Islamic Caliphate instead of the drug cartels. But it is exactly the same thing. Ghadaffi was overthrown because the Obama regime wanted to use a chaotic, destabilized “wild west” Libya as the doorway to the Caliphate to get the arms in for distribution to Syria, Yemen, Jordan, Egypt and eventually Saudi Arabia. Egypt would have been too risky.

Ambassador Chris Stevens and the CIA were somehow, some way running or heavily involved this armament pipeline.

The Obama regime wanted and “needed” Chris Stevens dead, probably to cover the gun and armament running, so they killed him. Word was sent to the Muslim Brotherhood to attack the Benghazi facility. The Obama regime promised that there would be no retaliation and that a cover story about “slandering the prophet” would be provided. The Muslim Brotherhood wins all around. They get to keep all of the arms and MANPADS supplied by Obama with no whistleblowers AND they get their bullshit sharia law agenda advanced and explicitly ratified by the government of the United States.

Get used to this business of the Oligarch class using the Muslim Brotherhood to do their dirty work for them. This has been the plan all along, and it will only escalate from here.

Bracken: Obama Was Asleep

by Matthew Bracken


The biggest stench from the Benghazi fiasco is that it is beginning to smell like Obama went “nighty-night” to rest up for Las Vegas, instead of manning up in the Situation Room and seeing the crisis through and (had he only been awake) ordering a rescue mission.

In Benghazi, after 6-8 hours enduring a few “Fort Apaches,” with running street battles in …
between, (like a mini Blackhawk Down), the living Americans must have been thinking, “Any minute now, here come the helicopters! Just hang on!”

But they didn’t. So even though Delta had forward staged to Sigonella Sicily (rumint) from base in Germany, nobody was willing or able to pull the trigger and send a rescue force. Or even a few F-18 supersonic flybys, to bust windows and warn, “Here comes American airpower, and you camel jockeys know what that means.” Just as a morale booster it would have helped the besieged staffers.

But it was never sent, not even a lousy supersonic low-level flyby. One hour from bases in Italy, max.

So, Does the ‘Oath’ Mean Anything?

Many Libertarians, Constitutionalists, and others have decided to withhold their consent to be ‘governed’ in the coming election by not voting. The reasons for that abstention should, by now, be obvious. Anyone reading this column will have undoubtedly run across at least several articles urging them to join the growing ranks of those of us who have just had enough of the lies, corruption, fraud, and outright criminal behavior of our so called ‘representatives’.

For any who still feel under some patriotic or moral obligation to participate in the charade at the polls, allow me to make one final appeal to your common sense; the ‘oath’.

The oath of office that all Federal elected officials place their hands on a Bible and voluntarily swear includes the words, ‘… to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic’. I challenge the reader to name one representative, with the possible exception of Congressman Ron Paul, who has made a serious attempt to honor their oath of office.

The Constitution is not a difficult document to read and understand. Yes, there is some wording that requires a return 18th Century context, but this should not tax the intelligence of anyone who is able to attain elective office in this day and age.

Reality Check: Can Ohio Voting Machines Be Hacked?

Who gets rich off ‘free’ government phones?

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

One of America’s fastest-growing wireless carriers is a company you’ve probably never heard of: Tracfone Wireless. It’s the U.S. arm of a telecom empire controlled by the world’s richest man, Carlos Slim, and it’s the biggest player in an increasingly lucrative market: subsidized mobile phones for low-income Americans.

The subsidy became a political flashpoint recently thanks to an incendiary YouTube video featuring a Cleveland resident praising her free “Obama phone.” Hype from the Drudge Report and conservative ringleaders like Rush Limbaugh propelled the video to nearly 5 million pageviews.

CIA operators were denied request for help during Benghazi attack, sources say

Fox News has learned from sources who were on the ground in Benghazi that an urgent request from the CIA annex for military back-up during the attack on the U.S. consulate and subsequent attack several hours later was denied by U.S. officials — who also told the CIA operators twice to “stand down” rather than help the ambassador’s team when shots were heard at approximately 9:40 p.m. in Benghazi on Sept. 11.

Former Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods was part of a small team who was at the CIA annex about a mile from the U.S. consulate where Ambassador Chris Stevens and his team came under attack. When he and others heard the shots fired, they informed their higher-ups at the annex to tell them what they were hearing and requested permission to go to the consulate and help out. They were told to “stand down,” according to sources familiar with the exchange. Soon after, they were again told to “stand down.”

This Can Happen in the United States

People believe that their savings/investments are safe in the United States. They are not. After MF Global, PFG Best and Sentinel Group examples, our property is not safe. If you have money in an account that is guaranteed by the FDIC, do the math: a bank run in the United States cannot cover these losses. Whether the government devalues the fruits of our labor through redistribution and the printing press or it is stolen outright by brokerage houses or the government (GM Bonds), only those who recognize these facts and take appropriate measures now will save their wealth (and possibly their lives).

Glenn Beck’s Definition of “Honor”

Glenn Beck has been focused on the Benghazi tragedy as an example of the dishonor prevalent in Washington, DC.  I agree. The administration has initiated a major cover-up of this scandal through misdirection and outright lies. Mr. Beck explains this morning (October 26th, 2012) on his radio show how we must not let the “pendulum” swing too far to the right or left. We must return the pendulum to the middle as Abraham Lincoln did. Excuse me? Isn’t this the same man who has been preaching that we must not have a French Revolution in the United States?

Mr. Beck’s continued excuses for Lincoln are an example of dishonor. Does anyone want another tyrant who was responsible for:

1. At least 618,000 Americans died in the Civil War, and some experts say the toll reached 700,000. The number that is most often quoted is 620,000. At any rate, these casualties exceed the nation’s loss in all its other wars, from the Revolution through Vietnam.

The Union armies had from 2,500,000 to 2,750,000 men. Their losses, by the best estimates:

Battle deaths: 110,070
Disease, etc.: 250,152
Total 360,222

        The Confederate strength, known less accurately because of missing records, was from 750,000 to 1,250,000. Its estimated losses:

Battle deaths: 94,000
Disease, etc.: 164,000
Total 258,000

Why Have African-Americans Abandoned the Republican Party When It Never Abandoned Them

by Diane Rufino

“I have no separate feeling about being an American citizen and colored. I am merely a fragment of the Great Soul that surges within the boundaries. My country, right or wrong.”    —  Zora Neale Hurston.

The history of African-Americans is a history of cruelty and callousness. But then it became a history of triumph and character.  As Frederick Douglass once said, in the beginning we watched how a man was made a slave, but then we saw how a slave was made a man.

When the delegates from twelve of the original thirteen states met in Philadelphia in 1787 (Rhode Island didn’t participate) to draft a new constitution that would “create a more perfect union,” the hope, and indeed the plan, was to abolish slavery. At first, South Carolina, Georgia, and North Carolina refused to join that union if the institution was outlawed, but then North Carolina gave in, noting that it already had a state law which banned the slave trade (although not directly).  But South Carolina and Georgia were steadfast and unyielding.  The plan for a Union would not work without those states.  [1]

Thomas Jefferson said: “There is preparing, I hope, under the auspices of heaven, a way for a total emancipation.” George Washington said, near the end of his life, wrote these words:  “It is among my first wishes to see some plan adopted by which slavery in this country shall be abolished by law. I know of but one way by which this can be done, and that is by legislative action; and so far as my vote can go, it shall not be wanting.”  Patrick Henry said, “We should transmit to posterity our abhorrence of slavery.”  And George Mason, of Virginia, who refused to sign the Constitution because it did not abolish slavery outright, was particularly passionate on the subject: “Slavery is slow poison, which is daily contaminating the minds and morals of our People. Practiced in acts of despotism and cruelty, we become callous to the dictates of humanity, and all the finer feelings of the soul. Taught to regard a part of our own species in the most abject and contemptible degree below us, we lose that idea of the dignity of Man, which the hand of nature had implanted in us, for great and useful purposes…..    Every master of slaves is born a petty tyrant. Slaves bring the judgment of heaven on a country. As nations cannot be rewarded or punished in the next world they must be in this. By an inevitable chain of causes and effects, Providence punishes national sins, by national calamities.”  [Mason’s prediction about “national calamities” would come to pass in 1861].

WAS SUDAN ARMS FACTORY BOMBING A SIGN ISRAEL CAN STRIKE IRANIAN NUCLEAR FACILITIES?

Ehud Yaari Says Sudan Arms Factory Bombing Means Israel Can Strike Iranian Nuclear Facilities

Red points on Israel Channel 2 map graphic show Fordo (Iran) to the east, Israel in the center and Khartoum to the south

The Sudanese government is blaming Israel for carrying out the attack Wednesday on a weapons factory outside its capital Khartoum. Israeli officials are mum. But one prominent analyst points out that if Israeli Air Force (IAF) jets were behind the bombing, Israel will have carried out its longest distance bombing run ever. This would imply that, contrary to the assessment of skeptics, Israeli fighter aircraft would have the ability to reach and target Iranian nuclear facilities if Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decides one day to carry out such an attack.

Sudanese Culture and Information Minister Ahmed Bilal Osman said that four aircraft managed to evade radars and dropped bombs on the Yarmouk military manufacturing facility. “We think Israel did the bombing,” AFP quoted him saying. “We reserve the right to react at a place and time we choose.”

Asked to respond, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak refused to comment, telling Channel 2 News: “I have nothing I can say about the matter.” He added, “I do not want to respond and will try not to express my emotions.”
