Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Addresses AIPAC Conference

Benjamin Netanyahu gives the world the proper analogy between Nazi Germany and Iran in his closing remarks. Appeasement only leads to emboldening the enemy. If Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei takes control when the March 2nd election results are announced, it will  solidify the Iranian theocracy’s goal to take out both the “little Satan” and the “great Satan”.

Mr. Netanyahu’s reference to the Book of Esther gives another great example of one woman’s courageous act that saved the entire Jewish people. It is also an example of standing your ground for your convictions at all costs because the consequences of inaction are not an option. In this case, the cost would not only have been her life but the lives of all Jews in exile under King Xerxes (Ahasuerus in Hebrew). The prime minister’s message is clear: Israel must defend itself and stand its ground or they will be destroyed.

Israel, Iran, Obama and Netanyahu – Mixed Messages

Posted on March 5, 2012 by DRenegade

U.S. President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (L) speak during meetings in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, March 5, 2012. The two leaders go into talks on the Iranian nuclear stand-off, with each publicly seeking to stake out some common ground.Obama offers Netanyahu assurances over Iran

President Barack Obama appealed to Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday to give sanctions time to curb Iran’s nuclear ambitions, but the Israeli prime minister offered no sign of backing away from possible military action, saying his country must be the “master of its fate.”

The two men, who have had a strained relationship, sought to present a united front in the Iranian nuclear standoff as they held White House talks. But their public statements revealed differences over how to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons.

Behind closed doors, however, Netanyahu confirmed to Obama what the president has already stated publicly – that Israel has yet to decide whether to hit Iran’s nuclear sites but retains the right to resort to military action, a source close to the talks said.

Now I Know Why Firearm Supplies Are Backordered

Posted on March 5, 2012 by DRenegade

Try buying supplies online for firearms and more than likely you will see the following: “Backordered”. If Obama is re-elected, there is little doubt that an all out attack on the second amendment will be his number one priority. At least this is one industry that is doing well in our economy without having to “adjust” the numbers.

Some say re-election fear is driving gun sales in Fort Worth, elsewhere

FORT WORTH — Gun sales are booming.

Enthusiasts are stocking up on guns and ammunition, and some in the industry are wondering whether sales are spiking as they did after Democrat Barack Obama won the presidency in 2008.

That rush created a nationwide shortage.

“We’re at the top of the roller coaster and we’re about to plummet down the side,” said DeWayne Irwin, owner of the Cheaper Than Dirt gun store in north Fort Worth, which set a sales record for the month of February. “It’s fixing to happen again. I don’t know if it will be to the same extent it was before, but I see it coming.

What Is the Definition of “Is” When It Comes to a Nuclear Iran?

Posted on March 5, 2012 by DRenegade

See additional comments on Tea Party Nation

President Obama has stated that he will not tolerate a nuclear armed Iran:

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poXiDh_f1eA

As written earlier, Iran has tested nuclear warheads in North Korea. Now Japanese intelligence sources have confirmed this report as the United States is giving North Korea food for their starving masses (Madeleine Albright’s history lessons being repeated). The consequences of an inept president in our present economic and national security crises will be coming home to “roost” in the near future.

Mr. Obama is now backed into a corner: does he attack Iran in conjunction with Israel as he has stated publicly or does he wait for additional direction from Valerie Jarrett on how to redefine what he really meant? I understand that the people in America do not understand the nuances in play across the world at this point in time. I also understand that the military does understand what is at risk: our national sovereignty and security. Any soldier who has sworn to defend the US Constitution from enemies both foreign and domestic must now decide what this oath really means.

Greece Is Not the Point

Posted on March 5, 2012 by DRenegade

Four of the top five articles on Zerohedge.com are currently outlining the Greek Crisis. Is this important to the rest of the world or to you personally? Yes and there is no qualifying “but” to be considered. The future of the world will be defined by one of two factors in the next few weeks:

  1. The Greek default.
  2. The impending world war.

The Greek default will result in the collapse of European banks and shortly thereafter, the United States banking system. The only reason that the EU has not collapsed yet is the transfer of over $800 billion to the European Central Bank by the Federal Reserve since December 1, 2011. Once the financial system collapses, the great equalizer will soon follow: world war.

Whether the upcoming war starts prior to an economic collapse depends on other factors that are receiving some attention in the media: gas/oil prices, Israel, a nuclear Iran and even Syria. Unfortunately the most pressing of the causes for war is being ignored or misunderstood which is the Greek default. Soon to be followed by the Portuguese, Irish, Spanish or Italian default.

Did you see that China increased its military budget 11.2% in the upcoming year at the same time that they lowered their economic forecast?

What Would Noah Do?

Posted on March 5, 2012 by DRenegade

Dennis Holland with Shawnee, the boat he's restoring at his Newport Beach home

Newport Beach did not issue Dennis Holland a new permit to finish the restoration of a 72 ship in his yard. They did not grandfather his existing project into their new ordinance in 2009: three years after he started this project. Would Noah have stopped building the ark during the 55-75 years of its construction based on legislation issued after its start? Half of the readers do not believe in what they consider a “fairy tale”. A majority of the remaining half would say this is mixing two different sets of circumstances. And they would be correct: in Noah’s day, man was free and not enslaved by ordinances.

NCRenegade Featured on Breitbart

Posted on March 4, 2012 by DRenegade

NCRenegade.com is now featured on Breitbart.tv. I wish the circumstances were different: the video and corresponding article show the outburst last week in the General Assembly hearings for illegal aliens. Although all three people arrested were in the country illegally, only one was kept in custody due to his criminal history.

Our nation is a Republic based on the rule of law. Once the legal system becomes degraded by corruption and self-serving applications, the Republic will fall.

David Stockman: We Are Heading for a Massive Cliff in 2013

Posted on March 4, 2012 by DRenegade

Apparently in secret tests in 2010 - APA (epa)

David Stockman was the wizard of Ronald Reagan’s economic policies. Mr. Stockman’s credibility and success make his opinions and analysis worth reading. Here are some highlights of the interview presented at the end of the article.

  1. The U.S. Economy has become  super-saturated with debt.
  2. There is no sustained net investment in our economy.
  3. The Fed is a patsy. It is a pathetic dependent of the big Wall Street banks, traders and hedge funds.
  4. I wouldn’t touch the stock market with a 100-foot pole. It’s a dangerous place. It’s not safe for men, women or children.
  5. Capital preservation is what your first, second and third priority ought to be in a system that is so jerry-built, so fragile, so exposed to major breakdown that it’s not worth what you think you might be able to earn over six months or two years or three years if they can keep the bailing wire and bubble gum holding the system together, OK? It’s not worth it.

No one can argue that the Federal Reserve has been directing the Treasury to print money to address excessive spending and debt by the federal government. If you believe that the time to pay the piper is close, you should make rational investment decisions and reallocations based on logic and facts.

A Convergence of North Korea, Iran and Israel Military Applications

Posted on March 4, 2012 by DRenegade

The following article is translated from German and has been published on Zerohedge.com and JohnGaltFla.com.

North Korea tested uranium warheads to Iran

North Korea has a German press report in 2010 brought in two secret nuclear tests warheads with highly enriched uranium to explode. The “Welt am Sonntag” reported, citing Western security circles, some intelligence agencies assumed that the government in Pyongyang had conducted at least one of these tests for Iran.

This would mean that Tehran has been built with North Korean help, and ignited a nuclear warhead. According to the newspaper “Welt am Sonntag”, this assumption is based on data from the Organization of the contract for the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban (CTBTO). Accordingly, the Swedish nuclear physicist Lars-Erik De Geer is based on data from monitoring stations in South Korea, Japan and Russia believe that North Korea instead of the two secret uranium tests as in two earlier tests in 2006 and 2009 used plutonium. In January, reported the journal “Nature” in advance of de Geer research results.

The longtime director of the Policy Planning Staff in the German Defense Ministry, Hans Rühle, writes in the “Welt am Sonntag” that “some of which now go out intelligence that North Korea has actually conducted a nuclear test in 2010, at least for Iran.” This would mean that the International Atomic Energy Agency IAEA also provides a document, “which was the religious leader Ayatollah Khomeini himself, who decided in 1984, the resume after the overthrow of the Shah’s nuclear weapons program set.”

Three other articles to consider at this particular point in time: Continue reading →

Vote or Die?

Bob Basso makes a cogent argument for voting correctly to save the country. He assumes that the anti-Obama candidate will be able to return the country to prosperity and morality. What he does not address is the alternative scenarios.

What if Obama wins reelection? What if the Republican candidate is weak and hamstrung by Congress? As the nation focuses on the presidential election, the Democrat party is working to take back control of the House of Representatives. Is this possible. Absolutely.

The 2010 election results gave the country a Republican controlled House of Representatives that: Continue reading →

TSA Makes Mother Prove Her Breast Pump Is Real

Just another example of the TSA abusing our rights. Or will this be the another successful attempt to force us into submission? What will be the last abuse that will give us the resolve to take back our country? We have a choice and it is not at the polls but in our hearts. At what point will we stand up and restore our country?

Restoring freedom is not insurrection. Restoring honor is not treason. Standing up for our natural laws is our right and duty.

Silence in the face of evil is itself evil .

Obama, Fluke and Dishonoring God

Posted on March 2, 2012 by DRenegade

President Obama has called Sandra Fluke to offer his support for her “attacks” by Rush Limbaugh concerning her sexual promiscuity. Ms. Fluke relates the highlights of this presidential conversation:

“He encouraged me and supported me and thanked me for speaking out about the concerns of American women. And what was really personal for me was that he said to tell my parents that they should be proud. And that meant a lot because Rush Limbaugh questioned whether or not my family would be proud of me. So, I just appreciated that very much.”

John Adams addressed morality in a speech to the military in 1798:

“We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion . . . Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
