Declassified 9/11 Docs Reveal Government Had Apparently Heard About Hijacking Thing

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The Trump administration has released a batch of previously classified documents showing that the Clinton and Bush administrations had been warned for years that Al Qaeda was interested in attacking the United States, including the apparently revolutionary concept of hijacking an airplane.

The documents, declassified on the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, reportedly contain more than 100 pages of intelligence briefings seen by Presidents Clinton and Bush between February 1998 and September 2001.

Among the revelations is the stunning discovery that American intelligence agencies had actually received information suggesting that terrorists might use passenger aircraft as weapons.

In other words, the government apparently had some idea that something bad could happen involving airplanes, terrorists, and America.

Unfortunately, the information seems to have remained safely inside the federal government, where intelligence warnings are traditionally placed in a secure location where nobody has to do anything about them.

One 1998 intelligence report warned:

"Reporting suggests Bin Ladin and his allies are preparing for attacks in the US, including an aircraft hijacking to obtain the release of Shaykh 'Umar' Abd al-Rahman, Ramzi Yousef, and Muhammad Sadiq Awda. One source quoted a senior member of the Gama'at al-Islamiyya (IG) saying that as of late October, the IG has completed planning for an operation in the US on behalf of Bin Ladin but that the operation was on hold. A senior Bin Ladin operative from Saudi Arabia was to visit IG counterparts in the US soon thereafter to discuss options—perhaps including an aircraft hijacking."

Apparently, "perhaps including an aircraft hijacking" was intelligence-speak for "there is a possibility that terrorists could hijack an airplane," a concept that would become considerably less hypothetical three years later.

The documents also reportedly stated that:

"IG leader Islambouli in late September was planning to hijack a US airliner during the 'next couple of weeks' to free 'Abd al-Rahman and the other prisoners,"

The same source reportedly warned that:

"Bid Ladin might implement plans to hijack a US aircraft before the beginning of Ramadan on 20 December and that two members of the operational team had evaded security checks during a recent trial run at an unidentified New York airport."

That last detail seems particularly encouraging, since it suggests terrorists were not merely discussing hijacking airplanes over coffee. They were apparently conducting practice runs at American airports.

The documents further warned that members of Bin Ladin's "network" had "received hijack training."

They also said Bin Ladin and his allies "are moving closer to implementing anti-US attacks at unspecified locations, but we do not know whether they are related to attacks on aircraft."

At some point, one imagines, the government had accumulated enough warning signs to fill an entire filing cabinet.

And yet here we are.

On September 11, 2001, 19 Al Qaeda terrorists ultimately hijacked four passenger planes. Two were flown into the World Trade Center in New York City, another struck the Pentagon, and passengers aboard the fourth plane fought back against the hijackers before it crashed in Pennsylvania.

More than 3,000 people were killed.

Among the dead were hundreds of firefighters, police officers, emergency workers, and other first responders who ran toward the danger while everyone else was desperately trying to get away from it.

Twenty-five years later, the release of these documents provides yet another painful reminder that the warning signs were there.

For decades, Americans have debated whether the government knew something was coming, whether intelligence agencies adequately connected the dots, and whether more could have been done to prevent the attacks.

The newly released documents are unlikely to settle every question.

They do, however, provide another remarkable glimpse into the world of pre-9/11 federal intelligence, where warnings about terrorists planning to hijack American aircraft could apparently make it all the way into the President's Daily Brief without making it quite as far as the people who needed to do something about them.

Because apparently the one thing nobody in Washington had thought to classify was the possibility that terrorists might actually mean what they were saying.

Islamic charity does verbal calisthenics to find a way to blame the Jews for 911

WASHINGTON, D.C. , In what education experts are calling a bold new approach to history, the Council on American-Islamic Relations has reportedly released a school resource guide suggesting that the September 11 terrorist attacks were less about Islamic terrorism and more about America's unfortunate habit of supporting Israel, you know, the Jooooooze!

The guide, released as part of CAIR's “Back to school resource guide,” was apparently designed to help teachers explain the 2001 attacks to a new generation of students who might otherwise make the historically outrageous mistake of believing that terrorists were responsible for the terrorism. 

How Canadian Broadcasting Corporation of them, eh.

Thankfully, the guide appears to have been removed shortly after its publication, presumably after someone remembered that telling American children that their country basically had it coming for supporting Israel might not be considered traditional civics education. But I bet it wasn't Randi Weingarten who had the guides removed.

Among the guide's more creative historical formulations was the claim that the attacks were carried out not by Islamic terrorists, but by a “group self-identifying as Al Qaeda hailing from the mountains of Afghanistan.” In fact, some of them may have even looked Jewish.

This distinction is important. After all, if a group calling itself Al Qaeda hijacks four airplanes, murders nearly 3,000 people and attacks the Pentagon and World Trade Center, the least we can do is carefully avoid jumping to conclusions about whether it might have had anything to do with Islamic terrorism.

The guide also cited American support for Israel and the U.S. military's involvement in the Gulf War as grievances that supposedly helped justify attacks against the United States. In other words, we had it coming. 

Apparently, the terrorists had grievances, America had foreign policy, Israel existed, and therefore everyone can go home with a B-plus in History.

The guide's explanation of the aftermath of 9/11 was even more remarkable. According to the materials, the Global War on Terror helped create an “Islamophobic” culture in which the words “terrorism” and “terrorist” were supposedly applied primarily to Muslims.

“While Islamophobia and anti-Muslim racism existed long before the 9/11 attacks, this time period marked a stark shift in US policy and state sponsored Islamophobia in the U.S. and abroad. There was immediate backlash against anyone perceived to be Muslim,” the propaganda read.

Of course, there was also an immediate backlash against people who flew airplanes into buildings, murdered civilians and attacked the Pentagon. But apparently that distinction was considered too nuanced for the back-to-school crowd.

The guide also included terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden's “Letter to America” as “resource material,” apparently because nothing says "educational enrichment" quite like assigning students the writings of the man responsible for the murder of thousands of Americans.

Among the gems included in bin Laden's letter was this passage:

“Your law is the law of the rich and wealthy people, who hold sway in their political parties, and fund their election campaigns with their gifts. Behind them stand the Jews, who control your policies, media and economy.”

Somewhere in Israel, a history teacher is presumably preparing a lesson explaining that this is definitely not antisemitic, but merely another example of America's complicated relationship with foreign policy.

Nicholas Haros Jr., whose mother Frances was killed on 9/11, wasn't buying it.

“The further we get from 9/11, this new generation of kids will learn to blame our country. These kids are going to be poisoned – and that’s the intent.”

Sen. Tom Cotton had already warned about CAIR's efforts to influence American schools nearly a year earlier.

“I write to alert you to the Council on American-Islamic Relations’s (CAIR) efforts to influence K-12 schools … It is well documented that CAIR has deep ties to pro-Hamas terrorist organizations and publicly supports Hamas’s terrorist activities,” Cotton wrote in part.

“Such an organization should never have access to our nation’s children,” he asserted, adding, “The organization offers ‘educational’ materials on its website that perpetuate pro-terrorist, anti-Israel rhetoric. CAIR Philadelphia recently issued guidance for educators titled ‘Remembering and Reflecting: Teaching September 11, 2001, in Diverse Classrooms.’ The guide directs teachers to avoid using ‘inaccurate and inflammatory terms such as ‘Islamic terrorists,’ ‘jihadists,’ or ‘radical Islamic terrorists,’’ when describing the September 11 terrorists.”

“The U.S. Department of Education must ensure that CAIR is not given an opportunity to push its radical, pro-terrorist, anti-Israel ideology on American schoolchildren,” he concluded.

The whole episode raises an important question for American parents: When their children come home from school saying that Israel somehow caused 9/11, should parents correct them, or simply congratulate them for successfully completing Advanced Blame-America Studies?

Fortunately, there remains one group that cannot be blamed for the attacks: Israel.

But give the education establishment another semester and somebody will probably assign that possibility as extra credit.

CBC Orders Reporters to Stop Calling 9/11 Terrorism, Says “Some Very Unfortunate Aviation-Related Things Happened”

Canadian public broadcaster unveils new journalistic standard requiring typists to avoid words that might accidentally describe reality.

TORONTO, Canada — The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has issued a stern warning to its typists: under no circumstances should they refer to the September 11, 2001 attacks as “terrorist attacks,” because that would risk introducing dangerous quantities of meaning, politics, emotion and, worst of all, facts into the story.

Instead, CBC typists have been instructed to describe 9/11 as “a situation where some folks did stuff in America as a prescient sign that one day Donald Trump would be President.”

The memo, authored by CBC News senior director of journalistic standards and public trust Basem Boshra, was considerably less colorful but no less bewildering.

“Do not refer to the Sept. 11 attacks as terrorist attacks,” the memo said.

The directive instead recommends describing the attacks as hijackings that led to passenger jets crashing in Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania and Manhattan.

The World Trade Center was also destroyed, apparently by forces that CBC typists are not at liberty to characterize.

CBC officials defended the policy by explaining that the word “terrorist” is simply too emotionally loaded.

“It is the practice of the CBC to exercise extreme caution before using the words ‘terrorist’ and ‘terrorism,’” CBC Public Affairs Director Kerry Kelly said.

This is understandable.

After all, imagine the emotional trauma a CBC reporter might experience by typing the words “19 al Qaeda terrorists hijacked four airplanes and deliberately murdered nearly 3,000 people.”

That is an awful lot of adjectives.

Much safer to write:

“Nineteen individuals participated in an aviation-related disagreement that unfortunately resulted in several buildings becoming unavailable for future occupancy.”

CBC editors reportedly rejected the phrase “mass murder” because it was considered “judgmental.”

“Death,” meanwhile, is apparently acceptable because it can happen naturally.

“Premeditated murder” remains under review.

“Islamist terrorism” has been referred to the CBC’s Department of Extremely Careful Feelings.
CBC: We Don’t Call Terrorists Terrorists Because That Would Be Taking Sides

CBC News general manager and editor-in-chief Brodie Fenlon previously explained that the organization prefers to “bear witness” rather than independently determine whether acts are terrorism.

“We bear witness. But CBC News does not itself designate specific groups as terrorists, or specific acts as terrorism, regardless of the region or the events, because these words are so loaded with meaning, politics and emotion that they can end up being impediments to our journalism,” Fenlon said.

Which is an impressive position for a news organization.

It is roughly equivalent to a weather forecaster saying:

“We don't independently designate rain as wet because ‘wet’ is such a loaded term.”

Or a hockey announcer saying:

“We cannot characterize the puck as having entered the net because the phrase ‘goal’ carries political and emotional implications.”

Or a coroner saying:

“We can confirm that the individual is no longer participating in the ongoing experiment known as life.”

The CBC is simply committed to maintaining neutrality.

Even when neutrality requires pretending everyone else hasn't already figured out what happened.
New CBC Style Guide Released

Sources say CBC editors are now considering a comprehensive update to their style guide.

Under the proposed rules:

Terrorist attack: “An event involving unexpected violence.”

Suicide bomber: “A person experiencing a severe disagreement with mortality.”

Hostage-taking: “An involuntary relocation experience.”

Murder: “An unauthorized termination of another person's biological processes.”

Massacre: “A gathering that ended with an unusually high number of people no longer gathering.”

Hamas: “A group whose designation as a terrorist organization should be attributed to Canada, Israel, the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, France and approximately half the planet.”

9/11: “The Sept. 11 attacks.”

Actual terrorism: “Please consult Legal.”

The CBC is particularly sensitive about the word “terrorist” because it might imply that someone who deliberately murders civilians for political purposes is, in fact, a terrorist. And once journalists start making those kinds of obvious connections, there is simply no telling where it could lead.

Soon they might start saying that criminals commit crimes.

Or that people who intentionally kill innocent civilians are responsible for killing innocent civilians.

Then civilization itself could collapse.

There is, admittedly, one small problem with the CBC's position. The FBI describes 9/11 as the most lethal terrorist attack in history.

Nineteen al Qaeda terrorists hijacked four airplanes, killed nearly 3,000 people and triggered the largest investigation in FBI history.

Canada itself lists al Qaeda as a terrorist entity and states that the organization perpetrated the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon. But CBC journalists remain bravely unwilling to reach the same conclusion without first consulting someone who has already reached it.

This creates the fascinating possibility that a CBC reporter could stand outside the wreckage of a terrorist attack and say:

“According to witnesses, the FBI, the Canadian government, the American government, the Israeli government, the British government and virtually everyone who has ever looked at this event, this may have been terrorism.”

“But I wouldn't want to speculate.”

New York City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino condemned the guidance, accusing the broadcaster of disregarding the victims and deliberately undermining the historical record.

“The CBC guidance is frankly outrageous and insulting, but it stands as a stark warning for what happens when you allow institutions of public trust to be taken over by leftists and foreign interests,” Paladino said.

“This is not merely a callous disregard for the memory of those who perished on 9/11, it is a deliberate effort to undermine the fundamental truth of what happened that day in direct service to Islamism, as Europe, Canada, and the United States become increasingly overwhelmed by Islamist politics. We must not tolerate it any longer and dedicate ourselves to fighting this poison with every tool we have available before it’s too late,” she continued.

Conservative Canadian MP Rachael Thomas called the guidance “absolutely shameful.”

“The CBC is choosing to redefine terrorism in a way that downplays the atrocity of 9/11. Refusing to call it an act of terrorism dishonors the victims, their families, the survivors, and the first responders who witnessed the horrors of that day. 9/11 was an act of terrorism. Full stop,” Thomas said.

The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs likewise accused the CBC of “sanitizing” history and presiding over a “collapse of journalistic standards.”

CBC responded that it was merely following its longstanding policy.

Because apparently the collapse of a building is tragic, but the collapse of a journalistic standard is merely a longstanding practice.

The policy is not limited to 9/11. CBC faced similar criticism following Hamas' Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel, when journalists were instructed not to independently call militants or soldiers “terrorists” and instead treat the designation as an attributed opinion.

Which raises an obvious question:

If Hamas murders civilians, kidnaps children, takes hostages and deliberately attacks Israeli communities, when exactly does CBC believe the word “terrorist” becomes appropriate?

Apparently, after the reporter has obtained a notarized affidavit from someone willing to accept responsibility for the adjective.

Perhaps the CBC could establish a new editorial hotline.

CALL 1: “Was someone intentionally trying to terrorize civilians?”

CALL 2: “Did they kill people?”

CALL 3: “Does Canada officially designate the organization as terrorist?”

CALL 4: “Is the answer to all three yes?”

CALL 5: “Sorry, we can't make that determination. Please hold for 45 minutes while we locate a sufficiently neutral adjective.”
CBC's New Definition of Journalism

The CBC's position ultimately leaves Canadians with a remarkable picture of modern journalism.

The journalist sees the plane.

The journalist sees the building.

The journalist sees the fire.

The journalist sees the bodies.

The journalist sees the terrorist organization that planned the attack.

The journalist sees the government's official designation.

The journalist sees the FBI's determination.

And then the journalist looks directly into the camera and says:

“Some things happened.”

This is apparently what “bearing witness” means in Canada.

Not telling people what happened.

Not describing what happened.

Certainly not using words that might help people understand what happened.

Just standing there solemnly while history happens nearby.

And if anyone asks whether 9/11 was terrorism, the answer is simple:

According to the FBI, yes.

According to the Canadian government, yes.

According to the historical record, yes.

According to the victims, their families and the first responders, obviously yes.

According to the CBC?

“The Sept. 11 attacks.”

Because apparently after 25 years, nearly 3,000 deaths, four hijacked aircraft and the destruction of the World Trade Center, the most dangerous thing about 9/11 is still the possibility that a CBC reporter might accidentally call a terrorist a terrorist.

Pastor Among Dozens of Christians Slain in Nigeria as Faithful Continue to Pay the Highest Price

There are tragedies that briefly capture the world's attention before vanishing beneath the endless churn of the news cycle. Then there are tragedies that persist for years, claiming thousands of lives while attracting little more than passing notice. The systematic slaughter of Christians in Nigeria belongs firmly in the latter category.

A pastor and dozens of Christians were killed in an overnight assault on a village in Nigeria's Plateau State, the latest episode in a conflict where sectarian violence, terrorism, and competition over land have combined into an unrelenting campaign of bloodshed against Christian communities.

The attack began around 2 a.m. on June 22 in Kawel village in Bokkos County. 

According to Christian Daily International, Fulani herdsmen killed 28 Christians, among them Rev. Markus Nyam, pastor of the Church of Christ in Nations.

Resident Jesse Peter Dukut described a night of terror in which villagers were effectively imprisoned inside their own homes while armed men hunted them through the darkness.

“We were inside our houses when the Fulani herdsmen invaded our village,” Dukut said. “If anyone came out of their houses, they were shot at sight. And a sound from any of the houses in the village attracts shooting from the terrorists.”

Dukut said telecommunications had been disabled, making it impossible for residents to summon security forces. He added that the attackers spoke in Fulani and Hausa and called out the names of Christian leaders, suggesting the assault had been carefully planned rather than carried out indiscriminately.

“They killed my uncle and brothers,” he said. “I narrowly escaped being shot.”

Rev. Nyam was murdered alongside members of his congregation. Church leaders in Bokkos confirmed his death, saying they received the news “with deep sadness” while offering prayers for his family, friends, and the devastated community he served.

What occurred in Kawel is not an isolated atrocity. It is another chapter in a grim pattern that has become all too familiar across Nigeria's Middle Belt. According to Open Doors' 2026 World Watch List, 3,490 of the 4,849 Christians killed worldwide for their faith between October 2024 and September 2025 were Nigerian. That represents 72 percent of all documented Christian martyrdoms during that period.

Statistics alone, however, can obscure what they reveal. Each number represents a life extinguished, a family shattered, and a community left to bury its dead while wondering when the next attack will come.

Christian leaders have long argued that the violence cannot be reduced to a single explanation. Competition over increasingly scarce farmland, driven in part by desertification, has undoubtedly intensified tensions. Yet to ignore the ideological dimension is to misunderstand the nature of the violence itself.

Most Fulani people reject extremism and should not be conflated with those who commit such crimes. But a radicalized faction has embraced methods and objectives strikingly similar to those employed by Boko Haram and the Islamic State West Africa Province.

A 2020 report by the United Kingdom's All-Party Parliamentary Group for International Freedom or Belief concluded that these militants “adopt a comparable strategy to Boko Haram and ISWAP and demonstrate a clear intent to target Christians and potent symbols of Christian identity.”

Open Doors U.K. reported that at least 20 people, including a church leader and a pregnant woman, were killed in the Kawel assault. Police reportedly arrived only after daylight, hours after the attack had begun. Bishop Ayuba Matawal lamented that the delayed response “left the defenseless community entirely at the mercy of their assailants for the duration of the raid.”

The deterioration of Nigeria's security landscape shows little sign of ending. Christian Daily also reports that a new jihadist organization known as Lakurawa has emerged in the country's northwest. Armed with sophisticated weaponry and aligned with Jama'a Nusrat ul-Islam wa al-Muslimin (JNIM), an Al-Qaeda-linked insurgency originating in Mali, the group represents yet another front in an expanding Islamist insurgency.

The massacre at Kawel is therefore more than a local tragedy. It is another reminder that thousands of Nigerian Christians continue to live under the constant threat of violence simply because of their faith. While the world debates many injustices with understandable passion, one of the largest and deadliest campaigns of religious persecution in the modern era continues to unfold with remarkably little international attention.

National Security Advisor Waltz says US will support additional military ops in Gaza

President-elect Donald Trump’s National Security Advisor Mike Waltz said the US would support additional military operations in Gaza if necessary. He made it clear that Hamas must be destroyed, echoing the rhetoric of Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth.

Waltz spoke with Fox News,”We’ve made it very clear to the Israelis, and I want the people of Israel to hear me on this: If they need to go back in, we’re with them,” he said. “If Hamas doesn’t live up to the terms of this agreement, we are with them.”

Waltz praised the hostage release deal currently being finalized and gave the credit for the agreement to Donald Trump. 

I disagree with the hostage deal as Hamas sees it as a victory, and I see it as a pause in the ongoing attempt for Hamas and their ilk to commit total genocide of the Jews, not only in Israel, but across the globe as Hitler had attempted to do.

“Hamas is not going to continue as a military entity and it’s certainly not going to govern Gaza,” Waltz said.

Waltz reported that he heard that about 25 of the initial 33 hostages slated for release in the first phase are alive. 

“I’m convinced they all would have died if President Trump didn’t come in and say ‘get them out,’” Waltz said.

Waltz discussed the “Trump Effect” and the President-elect’s threat that there would be “Hell to pay” if the hostages were not released before his inauguration on January 20th.

The problem is, the deal sucks, but it shows how Jews respect life and will jump through hoops to get the hostages returned to Israel, dead and alive.

“Hamas knew… they had no choice and they believed President Trump when he said there would be all hell to pay, and any deal that was on the table would just get worse once he was in office.”

“Hamas cannot have a role. ISIS doesn’t have a role. Al Qaeda doesn’t have a role,”Waltz said on a podcast. “It astounds me that people try to put them in some kind of special category. These are hostage-taking, murderous, rapist torturers that never should ever have any role in governing.”

“We shouldn’t subject the Palestinian people to that either,” he affirmed. “We’ll never get to a better future; we’ll never get to a truly stable region if we don’t carve up this cancer.”

A couple of jihadist leaders introduced to their brown-eyed virgins during dinner

They were having a nice, quiet dinner in a building in northwestern Syria. Perhaps they were discussing future jihad plans, or maybe it was a discussion about their hatred of Christians, Jews, atheists, gays and Shi'ite Muslims, when out of the blue came the faint buzzing sound of a U.S.-led Coalition drone.

BAHDAHBING!

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reports that at least 22 people were killed by the drone strike, including five civilians and 17 Islamic jihadists. According to Islamic scripture, that means jobs for 1,224 virgins in a place called Jannah [Islam's version of Heaven].

The drone strike occurred in a village called Jakarah, located near the city of Salqin in the northern countryside of Idlib Governorate. If venturing out in a city with a "q" in its title, NOT followed by a "u," be very careful and keep your eyes to the sky and ears tuned to the buzzing of the sound that drones make. It could be the last thing you hear.

SOHR said that the meeting participants included Hay’at Tahrir Al-Sham commanders who were defecting to the Al-Qaeda linked Hurras Al-Deen group. These are the devil-may-care jihadists who enjoy killing time by killing people.

“It is worth noting the jihadists who were killed in the attack, were commanders and fighters who had dissented from Hayyaat Tahrir Al-Sham and agreed with ‘Hurras Al-Din’ jihadi organization regarding the rejection the Russian-Turkish agreements of the ‘de-escalation zone’. Moreover, the fatalities included 11 ex-HTS commanders, five of whom are non-Syrians, as well as an ex-ISIS commander who later joined HTS,” the monitor reported.

May they rest in pieces.

US deals death from above to al Qaeda fighters: will there be a virgin shortage?

A US airstrike on Sunday made mulch out of an Al Qaeda leadership and training facility in northern Syria where Islamic jihadis were “plotting external attacks” against American citizens, officials said.

The U.S. Central Command said Monday in a statement the strike occurred near the northern province of Aleppo and sent a number of militants off to a place known as Jannah, or Muslim paradise. It's a place where the rivers run with wine, the women are all beautiful brown-eyed virgins, and no matter how many times you have sex with them, poof! they remain virgins . . .  or so they say.

According to British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said the strike killed only eight scum merchants of the Al-Qaeda-linked Horas al-Din, which is Arabic for "Mo Mo Mo, he's our man, if he can't kill you no one can." Okay, it actually means "Guardians of Religion."

The Observatory said the dead included six crap weasel commanders: two feisty Algerians, two crazy Tunisians, one sad Egyptian and a Syrian in a fig tree.

Bipartisan bill passed unanimously against using human shields

Finally, something the Democrats aren't trying to block--the U.S. Senate has unanimously passed a bill that would enact sanctions on those who use civilians as human shields as a war tactic. This includes Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS and Al Qaeda.

The office of Sen. Joe Donnelly (D-IN) in a press release Friday, along with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) introduced the bill, said "The use of human shields is barbaric and illegal, and terrorist groups--including Hamas and Hezbollah--must be held responsible when they engage in this reprehensible practice."

They should have also included the targeting of schools and homes of civilians, but that's asking a lot.

The bill was co-sponsored by 50 additional senators and will now be headed to the House of Representatives for a vote. The bill is called the Sanctioning the Use of Civilians as Defenseless Shields Act [aka: "Let That Kid Go and Fight Like a Man Act"].

Any member of Congress voting against passing the bill will stand out like a sore zabiba.

Doubling down on his zabiba

"I commend the Senate for unanimously passing our bipartisan bill," Sen. Cruz said on Friday. "Terrorist groups, including Iranian proxies such as Hamas and Hezbollah, have made the use of human shields a routine tactic. This bill signals to the rest of the world that America will hold accountable anyone who uses civilians as shields to achieve military ends, as well as their enablers. I encourage the House to come together and pass our bill as soon as possible."

Because we all know that once this bill is passed, Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS and Al Qaeda are going to back down and stop putting women and children in front of themselves while they shoot at our troops.

The bill requires and gives POTUS authority to identify and impose sanctions on a foreign individual, who is a member of or acting on behalf of terrorist groups and "who knowingly orders, controls, or otherwise directs the use of civilians protected as such by the law of war to shield military objectives from attack."

"Terrorist organizations like Hamas in Gaza continue their efforts to kill and terrorize innocent civilians while using human shields in the process, showing their utter disregard for human life," Sen. Marco Rubio 9R-FL) observed.

Other senators agree that using human shields is not nice.

American Al Qaeda traitor found terrorist life 'extremely boring'

One of the first American scumcrumpets to join Al Qaeda after the September 11 attacks complained the life of a terrorist was "extremely boring" and he never got to kill any fellow Americans.

Bryant Neal Vinas [rhymes with penis] is a convicted terrorist who grew up on Long Island, NY. Six months after 911 Vinas joined the Army  but sucked at being a soldier and was discharged weeks later for "failure to adapt to the military" so he joined Al Qaeda because he just wanted the chance to kill dudes, no matter who they represent.

In 2008 Vinas was detained by Pakistani security forces on terror charges.

The traitorous POS wrote about his time with the terrorist group in Monday's issue of Sentinel, the magazine of the Combating Terrorism Center at the U.S. Military Academy. [It's unknown if Vinas will donate the money to the cause of Islam or just buy gum.]

Vinas converted to Islam in 2007, at the age of 24, because he was looking for a way to justify his homicidal urges. He joined Sunni Muslim militants in Pakistan at a time in his miserable life when he was angry about U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, which is to fight terrorism whenever it threatens our existence.

This was when he joined the terrorist group that had close ties to the unwashed Talilban [pronounce "Tahleebahn" by Barack Obama and Christiane Amanpour]. But he left the group after an aborted attack on U.S. and Afghan forces, when he realized he could get himself killed doing this crap.

"Going on a mission had been such a relief from the terrible boredom, but in the end, I was disappointed that the operation was unsuccessful," he said, but refusing to discuss how he wet his pants on the mission.

His life with the group became difficult as they began living in the mountains where the air is thin and the ground was uneven. He was soon told that in order to be a good jihadi, he would have to attend an Islamic school [known as a madrassa, like Obama attended in Indonesia because he isn't a Muslim].

After Koran classes, he would return to base where he was forced to reassemble old Russian pistols. He soon met up with a group of Arab jihadis who brought him into the Al Qaeda fold.

The Osama bin Laden-group offered the traitor training courses on how to use explosives and weapons, and how to pick up little girls for marriage and their mothers for sex slaves.

"There are days when you do absolutely nothing. There is common frustration amongst many AQ guys about the amount of inactivity. There are few operations to participate in, and even those weren't very good, so the body was not in prime fighting condition for 'mountain fighting' when a fighting mission appeared," he complained. "The only other option was to take classes for missions outside of Pakistan/Afghanistan, but I never knew anybody who took those or went, and I was wary to do so.

The human excrement with lips suggest to Al Qaeda leaders a plot to blow up the Long Island Railroad or a Walmart with all the people in funny clothes with their butt cracks showing. He also took part in attacks on U.S. bases in Afghanistan.

He was eventually arrested and like a good Al Qaeda soldier, decided to spill his guts to U.S. authorities. The information he reportedly gave was used to launch drone strikes on militant positions.

So he was a traitor to both sides.

Rather than executing Vinas for treason, he was released from a federal prison last year and was denied entry into the witness protection program, according to The New York Times.

Speaking of released, hopefully, someone will release his current address.

Haqqani network leader dead: Taliban

Always with the pen in his vest and food
in his beard

According to the Taliban, Jalaludin Haqqani, the founder of Afghan terrorist group the Haqqani network in Afghanistan and finder of something growing in his beard, is dead after a long illness similar to "The Willies."

Haqqani was once an ally of the U.S. but became affiliated with both the Taliban and Al Qaeda. It has been described as the top security threat in Afghanistan [pronounced 'Afghaaahneestaahn" by Christiane Amanpour].

Jalaludin Haqqani's network had been paralyzed for over ten years and was declared a terrorist organization [reluctantly] by the United States in 2012 by the Obama administration. Haqqani himself had not surfaced for several years and in 2015 reports of his death were exaggerated.

But the Taliban [you should hear how Amanpour pronounces this one] confirmed his death and asks that in lieu of flowers people should go out and kill an infidel.

Zabihullah Mujahed, a spokesman for the Taliban told the Associated Press via telephone Tuesday that Haqqani died on Monday inside Afghanistan and called him a religious scholar and exemplary warrior.

And if you don't think that Islam calls on believers to go out and kill non- believers, you don't know jack, and you don't know Islam.

Al Qaeda leader killed by US airstrike in Libya

Musa Abu Dawud was blown to tiny bite-size pieces by a US airstrike in Libya. Dawud was an al-Qaeda leader and it was just his bad luck that he was killed in the first US airstrike against the group in Libya.

The dead terrorist was killed alongside another of his buddies near Ubari in Libya's ungoverned southwest. He was in charge of the training and recruitment of new scumwafers of al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb. He is also accused of masterminding many operations in Algeria and Tunisia but the US airstrike put an end to that in a flash . . . literally.

The strike was carried out on March 24 but the pissant's identity was only revealed on Wednesday. Perhaps it took that long to put all the pieces of the puzzle together, if you know what I mean.

"Hey, anybody seen Musa?"

"He [Dawud] provided critical logistics support, funding and weapons to AQIM, enabling the terrorist group to threaten and attack U.S. and Western interests in the region," Africom said.

Before killing Dawud and company, the US was focused on the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant's Libyan faction.

May he rest in pieces.

War movies anger leftists, especially emasculated men

The movie "12 Strong" opens this weekend and depicts the first military response to the Taliban in Afghanistan following the September 11, 2001 terror attacks on American soil.

It is a story about a dozen Marines who befriend members of the Afghan Northern Alliance and go to fight on horseback against an enemy that greatly outnumbers them.

The movie is about heroes.

Leftists don't like heroes because they feel threatened by them. This is why many leftist "men" wore pussy hats at the Women's Day March to oppose President Trump and the nation. In fact, these leftists want Hollywood to stop making war films because they promote "backwards" ideas and "glorify outdated models of masculinity."

Easy for lefties to say that since we aren't at war now in our homeland. Not on the scale as Afghanistan is at war. If we were, this would be a non-issue and these same leftists would do whatever they could to have someone else defend the nation so that they could go on complaining.

Thank God, our "toxic masculinity" stopped ISIS overseas, with the leader scurrying to save his own dirty butt into the recesses of Pakistan and destroying the Al Qaeda network of scum-wafers, the group that killed 3,000 Americans on that day in 2001. None of the leftists complained about our response by George W. Bush after those building came down--I saw it happen--I'm from the New York City.

According to The Intercept, [an ironic word describing a military action, often involving air combat, used by a media outlet made of snowflakes] it's time to end the glorification of heroics demonstrated in war.

"Hollywood has shown itself capable of making excellent war movies (think "Three Kings," "Paths of Glory," and "The Best Years of Our Lives"), but most are problematic," writes Peter Maass (the 'Ma' is silent). "Some of the biggest war movies of the post-9/11 era don't just show violence in ways that are often gratuitous and occasionally racist [he had to get that word in there somehow]. They model a cliched form of masculinity that veers from simplistic to monstrous."

Maass's criteria for a great war movie are totally met in "12 Strong," but the movie undermines his leftist ideology.

"In the same way that Hemsworth's assault weapon goes rat-tat-tat and the bad guys fall like bulleted dominoes, the scene itself checks off one born-in-Hollywood cliché after another: of the rugged gunslinger, the warrior in camo, good versus evil, the modern vanquishing the profane, a man at his fullest," Maass whimpers.

If we could all just hug it out, there would be no war.

Maass has reported on war and should know better, but his politics outweighs reality.

UK sends special forces to 'kill or capture' Hamza bin Laden

He looks kind of gay in a happy sort of way in the photo, but make no mistake, Hamza bin Laden is a top scum crumpet for al Qaida and would kill you as soon as look at you.

So what's an infidel nation to do?

Well, the UK has launched a top-secret manhunt to "kill or capture" the 28-year-old terrorist leader, the Daily Star reports. 

The unit leading the hunt for 'Smiley Beheader Boy' is the UK's legendary Special Air Service, and while it doesn't sound as cool as our Navy SEALs, they are really on par with them (but we're a little bit better).

The latest intel warns that Hamza (his name roughly means 'Hamster Bugger') is active and has been plotting a terrorist attack in the West after his dad, a devout Muslim, was killed in 2011 by a Fox News contributor and former Navy SEAL, Rob O'Neill. 

Osama's last words just before O'Neill put a round into his cerebellum were alleged to be: "Make sure Hamza gets my porn collection."

Hamza went dark from the Abbottabad compound in Pakistan (pronounced "Pakeestahn" by Barack Obama) just weeks before his dad caught lead poisoning.

However, two years ago, the scum-waffle re-emerged and made a video praising the terror attacks in London. There are also propaganda clips showing Hamza training in a terrorist boot camp where he was able to do a push-up and three sit-ups.

Then in May, a Western intelligence source identified Hamza and confirmed that he was planning a terror attack on the West to avenge his father.

What was the little puke thinking--that his father could pull off the 911 attack and we'd read from an index card about how we condemn the attack in the strongest possible terms. He forgets that the attack was before Obama and Kerry were apologizing to the Muslim world.

So Hamza's reappearance in Syria has led the CIA to put him on the US State Department's terror watch list. Oooh, he better be careful now that we have his name on that list. Soon we might even put it on an index card.

But now he's among the top 10 "high-value" targets and is being pursued by coalition forces of Operation Shader.

Forty SAS soldiers have joined forces with other units in a Joint Coalition Special Operations team and deployed to Syria on a covert mission to find the little crap weasel. 

Make no mistake-Hamza will be found and will adorn the same "beauty mark" in his forehead currently worn by his father.

Omar Khadr wins the jihadi jackpot

This is disgustingly disturbing. Something is backwards, wrong, a blight on Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's liberal leadership.

A Canadian named Omar Khadr is the problem, the blight. His father took him to the killing fields of Afghanistan and filled his young head with viciously violent al-Qaeda ideology spouted by scumcrumpet Osama bin Laden.

When Khadr was merely 15, he participated in Islamic jihad and killed a U.S. soldier and blinded another. He was caught and sent to Guantanamo Bay Detention Center. While this POS served time in Gitmo, his family publicly stated their lack of loyalty and faith to Canada.

So what does Justin Trudeau, the pot-smoking son of a liberal former Prime Minister do? He pays Khadr a settlement of $10,500,000.

The murderer previously sought $20,000,000 in a wrongful imprisonment civil suit against the city of Ottawa, Canada's capital.

Thus, while Omar is a product of his father's screwed up form of Islam, Justin Trudeau has demonstrated that even if you're an evil sack of you know what, you can still be rewarded for being on the side of evil.

And the Trudeau government apologized to the POS--it's sickening.

The $10.5 million deficit will be made up by taxpayer money--even Canadian veterans will pay this creep out their own pockets, or Canada could sell munitions and arms to regimes such as AQ.

Justin Trudeau's apology and money settlement is a kick in the butt to all who fight terrorism and for human rights.

And for you Canadians who are worried about the future and the way the world is circling the drain, I suggest you stay very worried and do something about it. 

We Americans must do the same.

When Khadr was asked what he was going to do with all that money, he said, "I'm going to blow up Disneyland."

Just kidding.

Little Laden to follow in dad's blood trail

Osama bin Laden's son, Hamza, is ready to take the reins as the new leader of Al Qaeda in order to avenge his religious father's death at the hands of the US Navy SEALs. 

True to the Qur'an, Hamza doesn't want to merely kill Americans to avenge Osama's death, he wants to go whole Islamic hog and kill Jews too because that's the way, uh huh, uh huh, he likes it.

Personal letters seized in the raid the ended with a lead implant in the organic tissue of Osama bin Laden, show that Hamza is set on "going the full Mohammad" on us infidels, thus continuing his father's legacy of killing everyone he can who thinks differently than he does, and Jews because the Qur'an tells him so. This information was provided to CBS News by Ali Soufan, a former FBI agent. 

"He tells him [Osama] that . . . he remembers 'every look . . . every smile you gave me, every word you told me," Soufan said of Hamza. He also said that the kid thinks he's "forged in steel," when, in fact, he's forged in pig feces and the innocent dead victims of his father.

The kid's path to become head scumcrumpet of Al Qaeda came years ago when he was brainwashed as a propaganda tool of his abusive father who used him in videos often holding a gun. According to Soufan, the kid even began sounding like Osama bin Laden.

"His recent message that came out, he delivered the speech as if it's his father, using sentences, terminology that was used by Usama bin Laden." [The use of the letter 'U' as opposed to the letter 'O' for bin Laden's first name is to distinguish it from another famous 'Muslim' leader.]

Like his IQ, Hamza is about 28-years-old. He has been named as a "specially designated global terrorist," by the U.S. and has recorded 4 voice messages in the last two years aimed at the U.S.

"He's basically saying, 'American people, we're coming and you're going to feel it," Soufan said of the kid. "And we're going to take revenge for what you did to my father. Iraq, Afghanistan'. The whole thing was about vengeance."

So it looks as if Hamza has put his religion on the back burner for now in order to seek revenge, rather than killing for religious reasons.

Big difference.

ISIS and Al Qaeda marrying forces? Iraq's VP says yes

Al Baghdadi sings a love song to Al Zawahiri

Ayad Allawi, Iraq's vice president, said that ISIS and Al Qaeda, rivals in terror, are exchanging plans on ways to join forces. He didn't say who his source is for this information.

The Iraq vice president said the leaders of ISIS and AQ, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Ayman al-Zawahiri respectively, aren't directly communicating with each other but are using intermediaries.

(Imagine al-Baghdadi's guy saying to al-Zawahiri's guy: "Do you think Ayman really likes me?" Then al-Zawahiri's guy says: "He certainly thinks your beard's better than his goat's.")

"I don't know exactly when, but there are discussions and dialogues between messengers," Allawi said, but he doesn't know how the two groups will work together. 

One possibility is they will choose "Odds or Evens" to determine who gets to do a beheading, for example. 

Although there are concerns the two groups may be forging a marriage, of sorts, they've been like rival gangs, competing for money, gang members and other resources since their 2014 split.

In January, Al Qaeda's leader reiterated his criticism of the Islamic State's violent attacks, such as beheading civilians and eating with their hands. AQ also refused to recognize the ISIS self-declared caliphate in Syria and Iraq.

But the biggest animosity between the two gangs is exacerbated by the competition as to which leader is a better Muslim.

To Iowa State U.: It's just jihad, stupid

I was born and raised in New York City and lived about 4 miles point-to-point from the Twin Towers when they were attacked on 9-11. I found burnt paper in the gutter of my roof the wind blew from Manhattan.

I worked as a psychotherapist with some of the people in those buildings that lived, and with families of those who didn't. 

It seems like almost yesterday that people were crying in the streets and the streets were filled with soot for weeks and weeks after the terrorist attack.

But everything's okay now at Iowa State University. 

International Studies students were given an assignment: "Write a paper that gives a historical account of 9-11 from the perspective of the terrorist network. In other words, how might Al-Qaeda or a non-Western historian describe what happened."

It was to be a 500-word minimum essay and the leftist morons defended the proposal.

"As you can see, the assignment was in no way an attempt to diminish the tragic events of September 11, 2001," one ISU moron told The College Fix. "Nor was it designed to support the goals of Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations."


It's simply an attempt to understand why they hate us and what we can do to get them to like us. In other words, a fool's errand.

The spokes moron added: "This is similar to the vital work being performed in our nation's diplomatic and intelligence operations, such as Central Intelligence Agency, or the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research."

Perhaps I'm being too judgmental of ISU (aka "FU") but I don't know how I would feel and react to papers that describe the Al Qaeda terrorists drinking and having sex with prostitutes the night before, praying the day of the attack, and slitting the throats of the crew as they grabbed the controls.

Call me crazy.

It's just jihad, stupid. It's in their war manual they call the Koran. It's evil and you don't need a college degree to understand that.

Muslim cop sues for alleged harassment after firing

Chicago -- A Muslim police officer was fired by the North Chicago Police Department in February. 

Although North Chicago Police Chief Richard Wilson declined to go on camera, he said the officer, Ramtin Sabet was fired for violating department rules and regulations. The officer was accused of making racial comments about Jews and then lying about it when questioned by investigators.

So Sabet is suing for religious discrimination, claiming he was fired after he complained about being harassed.

"I risked my life so someone could sleep better," he said, "and this is not right. This is not right what they did to me."

Sabet began working for the North Chicago police in 2007. The Iranian-born officer claimed the harassment started a few years later.

"They started calling me names, they said I was a terrorist, I didn't belong to the country, I should go back to Iran. They said Iran should be nuked," Sabet said.

Sabet's lawsuit claims that fellow officers asked him if he road his camel to work. He does not even own a camel. At the firing range they said he was good at shooting because he had been teaching at Al-Qaeda camps in Iran.

"And the harassment didn't stop there," he said. "I would show up to calls, they'd say, 'Oh, Mr. Taliban pulled up here.' I would call in lunch breaks on the radio traffic asking dispatch for permission, they said, 'Oh, Mr. Taliban wants to eat falafel and hummus.'"

So which is it? Al Qaeda or the Taliban?

"I filed a complaint; I wanted the harassment to stop. They turned it all the way around on me and they terminated me. They accused me of untruthfulness," Sabet said, referring to the Islamic use of taqiyya, or lying for the sake of Islam.

Sabet is suing for wrongful termination, however, his lawyer says the lawsuit has a bigger purpose. 

Perhaps that purpose it to impose sharia in North Chicago's police force; perhaps not. 

Was Sabet lying and really displayed anti-Semitic behavior? Or, are the police lying? Maybe we'll never know.

Hopefully, President Trump will weigh in on the matter with an early morning tweet.

Or not!

Woman suicide bomber detonates with baby strapped to her back

Leftists like Obama say that the Islamic State is neither Islamic nor is it a state. If by Islamic he means a way the religion of Islam is practiced, he's wrong. If he mean by a state that the Islamic State has not established territory they claim as their caliphate, well, he's wrong again.

The same is true about the Taliban, al Qaeda, and basically any extremist practice of Islam.

If religion is having faith that a belief in their version of God will provide them with rewards in the hereafter, you can say that the Islamic State and the rest of the extremist religious terrorist groups is an example of a stronger faith than we see in the West, for the most part.

Extremists are so certain that their brand of Islam is the right brand. So sure they will go to Paradise for jihad, they are ready to die in the spirit of the Qur'an's promises.

Three women suicide bombers carried out an attack in Madagali, Adamawa State, Nigeria. One of the women had a baby strapped to her back. Nine people were killed, including two local vigilantes at a checkpoint where vehicles are screened before being allowed into town.

Imagine strapping your baby to your back, knowing you're both going to die for Allah. You would have to think that you're doing a wonderful thing for your baby. 

What a schizophrenic belief system the extremists have.

But don't tell me it isn't Islam--read the murder book called the Qur'an.

Miles of ISIS dead since 2014

If you took every dead ISIS member killed by U.S.-led coalition forces in the last two years, laid them on the ground, foot-to-head, they would stretch about 55 1/2 miles. 

Since 2014, over 50,000 Islamic State mujaheddin have been sent packing to Jannah (what they call Paradise, but it's more like a whorehouse with rivers of wine and young boys catering to your whims), marking a milestone in this long war, a senior official told Fox News on Thursday.

The official spoke about this for the first time and said the figures he mentioned are a conservative estimate, so if they stretch out for a full 60 miles, that's okay too. Our leaders are generally unwilling to release actual numbers but ISIS has been able to replace them very rapidly, especially at the start of the jihad.

"I give them credit for being so resilient," the official said. But he warned that airstrikes have killed so many scumcrumpets, the fear now is that they will morph into what he called "AQI 2.0," or another version of Al Qaeda in Iraq.

The official said the coalition airstrikes could be more aggressive in Mosul and similar areas, where Iraqi fighters are battling to retake the city.

The U.S.-led coalition has flown over 125,000 sorties in Iraq and Syria since Operation Inherent Resolve, which began in August 2014. 

That's a lot of air pollution, Mr. Obama.
