In this mailing: Soeren Kern: Why Belgium is Ground Zero for European Jihadis Raheel Raza: No More Hug-A-Terrorist Why Belgium is Ground Zero for European Jihadis by Soeren Kern  •  March 23, 2016 at 6:00 am Growing numbers of Belgian Muslims live in isolated ghettos where poverty, unemployment and crime are rampant. In Molenbeek, the unemployment rate hovers at around 40%. Radical imams aggressively canvass in search of shiftless youths to wage jihad against the West. "When we have to contact these people [European officials] or send our guys over to talk to them, we're essentially talking with people who are... children. These are not pro-active, they don't know what's going on. They're in such denial. It's such a frightening thing to admit their country is being taken over." — American intelligence official. "Returned Syria fighters are a huge threat... It is absolutely unbelievable that our governments allow them to return... Every government in the West, which refuses to do so [lock them up], is a moral accessory if one of these monsters commits an atrocity. ... Our citizens are in mortal danger if we do not restore control over our own national borders." — Dutch MP Geert Wilders. Scenes from the jihad on Belgium: The aftermath of yesterday's bomb attacks at the Brussels airport (left) and a metro station (right). The terrorist attacks on the airport and metro in Brussels are casting a spotlight, once again, on Belgium's ignominious role as a European haven for jihadists. Several distinct but interconnected factors help explain why Brussels, the political capital of Europe, has emerged as the jihadist capital of Europe. Large Muslim Population The Muslim population of Belgium is expected to reach 700,000 in 2016, or around 6.2% of the overall population, according to figures extrapolated from a recent study by the Pew Research Center. In percentage terms, Belgium has one of the highest Muslim populations in Western Europe. In metropolitan Brussels — where roughly half of Belgium's Muslims currently live — the Muslim population has reached 300,000, or roughly 25%. This makes Brussels one of the most Islamic cities in Europe. Approximately 100,000 Muslims live in the Brussels district of Molenbeek, which has emerged as the center of Belgian jihadism. Continue Reading Article No More Hug-A-Terrorist by Raheel Raza  •  March 23, 2016 at 4:30 am How hard is it to understand that radical Islamist jihadis have declared war on the West? In simple English this means: they will find you and kill you wherever and whenever they can. Time and again, many of us concerned Muslims have highlighted the dangers of political Islam/Islamism, which stems from one of three sources: the Muslim Brotherhood, Wahhabi/Salafism or Khomeinism. The West has been asleep at the wheel, waffling about how to address the issue with "sensitivity." Calling out the truth should never be subject to political correctness. The world needs to take the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to task and challenge it about what it is doing to stem the tide of violence emanating from the Muslim world. The world needs to understand that ISIS is not trying to set up a Caliphate. OIC is the Caliphate. Following a terrorist attack on two Canadian military officers in Toronto last week (left), the media initially did not wish to publish the words spoken by the attacker: "Allah made me do it." Following yesterday's bombings in Brussels, the media immediately brought in "experts" to analyze the motives of the attackers. There is nothing left to analyze. It is simple: It is a war against us. The terrorist attacks at an airport and Metro station in Brussels has by now claimed at least 34 dead and 250 injured. Shocking, sickening and appalling -- but surprising? No. How hard is it to understand that radical Islamist jihadis have declared war on the West? In simple English this means: they will find you and kill you wherever and whenever they can. Why? Because the Islamists have pinpointed the West to be "Dar al Harb" (land of war), a concept that allows them to justify killing anyone on this land. You, me and everyone in between -- from the USA across to Canada, the UK and Europe. Just this year, there have been terrorist attacks all over the globe, including Paris, Turkey, San Bernardino, Israel, Toronto, Ivory Coast and yesterday in Belgium. Whether carried out by groups or so called "lone wolves," these attacks are not isolated and have one thing in common. Continue Reading Article

DEMAND THE DEBATE: DOES DONALD TRUMP HAVE ACCESS TO THE "BEST PEOPLE" OR DOES HE SIMPLY TALK TO HIMSELF?

DEMAND THE DEBATE: DOES DONALD TRUMP HAVE ACCESS TO THE "BEST PEOPLE" OR DOES HE SIMPLY TALK TO HIMSELF? Posted: 20 Mar 2016 08:50 PM PDT One of the greatest dangers of a self-centered narcissistic ego-maniac is that they will become a corrupt megalomaniac with a messiah complex … Donald Trump: I consult myself on foreign policy, ‘because I have a very good brain’ Asked on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” who he talks with “consistently” about foreign affairs, Mr. Trump responded, “I’m speaking with myself, number one, because I have a very good brain and I’ve said a lot of things,” Politico reported. “I know what I’m doing, and I listen to a lot of people, I talk to a lot of people, and at the appropriate time I’ll tell you who the people are,” Mr. Trump said Wednesday. “But I speak to a lot of people, but my primary consultant is myself, and I have a good instinct for this stuff.” He went on to explain that he “would consult with the best people” before launching an attack on the Islamic State terrorist group. Source: Donald Trump: I consult myself on foreign policy, 'because I have a very good brain' - Washington Times Bottom line … If Donald Trump is that smart and knowledgeable, especially in foreign affairs, why is Trump afraid to debate constitutional conservative Ted Cruz one-on-one? Is he a coward who feels that he will be destroyed by Cruz who has an in-depth knowledge of the constitution, the government, and foreign affairs. DEMAND THE DEBATE! -- steve

THE ACID TEST: WILL TRUMP SPEND HIS OWN MONEY IN A GENERAL ELECTION? Posted: 17 Mar 2016 10:18 PM PDT We have heard it all before. Trump claims to be self-funding his campaign (in reality a $17,534,058.41 loan) and will not take contributions ($7,497,984.50 accepted from individuals and not returned). He is not beholden to large donors, lobbyists, SuperPACS, or special interests. <Source: FEC> So when it comes to the general election, will Trump take big money from the Republican National Committee and his fellow billionaires?  Or will he borrow the necessary money from financial institutions with little more than a personal guarantee and pay it off with well-attended fundraisers after the election like other politicians who seek tribute for administration access and action? Donald Trump will spend “whatever it takes” to win the Republican presidential nomination, he told talk radio show host Howie Carr on Wednesday. The real estate mogul, who announced his presidential candidacy on Tuesday, has touted his massive wealth — which he puts at nearly $9 billion — as a reason he should win the GOP nomination. “I don’t need anybody’s money,” Trump said during Tuesday’s announcement. “I’m using my own money. I’m not using lobbyists, I’m not using donors. I don’t care. I’m really rich.”  Asked by Carr how much of his personal war chest he’s willing to dump into his campaign, Trump initially told the host, “Oh, I’ll spend it all.” <Source> There is no way to tell how much money Trump really has at his disposal and he appears unwilling to release his tax returns until he's finished being audited by the Internal Revenue Service. Of course, since the returns have already been filed, there is no legal reason he cannot release them unless he has altered them in some way that would draw IRS scrutiny. Bottom line … One thing we have learned about Trump is that he is not always honest and does not always mean what he says or do what he says he will do. We are so screwed. -- steve

Tijuana: 'El Gordo' de CJNG detained ...

Borderland Beat

Tijuana: 'El Gordo' de CJNG detained  Posted: 21 Mar 2016 12:24 AM PDT CJNG operative detained in Tijuana For months rumors and banners have announced, implied, threatened, that the CJNG was in, or coming to Tijuana.  These rumors had many versions, some claimed longer then a year ago, that the Arellano Felix remnants, left adrift after Inge's 2014 arrest, had many an agreement with Jalisco to traffic in Tijuana, and fight the Sinaloa cells. These arrangements were said to be made when old members of Arellano Felix met Jalisco reps in prisons in Guadalajara state.  Another  'El Gordo', Manuel Garibay, also known as 'El Manuelon' who was aligned with CAF, after his release from prison was said to have Jalisco contacts, and was later murdered in that state.  Garibay was one of the biggest traffickers in Mexicali, with Los Garibays, his families organization.  He served time in Puente Grande, where he hooked up with CJNG, and people of Inge.  When he was released he was said to be working with both groups.   Other versions claim it was El Atlante, the former overweight cell leader, who, made an alliance with Jalisco.  Maybe it was all of them.  Now, banners and corridos have claimed CJNG is in alliance with CTNG, led by El Grosero, El JP, and Jose Soto 'El Tigre' Gastelum, former El Teo via Arellano Felix, via Inge loyalist, who was known to previously work with Sinaloa. The first Jalisco member officially detained in Tijuana may be 'El Gordo', a hunched over, heavyset man, with an ill fitting long shirt, detained with several assault rifles in the Otay Mesa area, near the Friendship Park.  His name is Esteban Ramirez Gonzalez, 44, native of Guadalajara.  He was in a 1999 Jeep Cherokee, and has confessed to being in Tijuana to smuggle weapons, assumedly coming from San Diego, and possibly to arm and support cells in Tijuana, under CTNG.  The State Preventive Police, (PEP) are responsible for the arrest, what isn't clear is why he was arrested.   Gordo may be the first of many, if some of the banners and gossip are to be believed, as CJNG may send up cells to traffic and possibly fight for the plaza, if Aquiles and his people don't decide to quietly leave the plaza, which is incredibly unlikely.   Gordo is likely, given his proximity to the weapons is just another runner, a proxy, a coordinator and facilitator of arms coming south. Elements of Los Caballeros also smuggled weapons through San Ysidro, and trafficked crystal north, and their people were never violent in the city of Tijuana, they paid plaza to whom they had to, when it was needed.   Is this a calm before a storm, the beginning of an era, or another quiet arrest that will fade away, perhaps beginning with his release in a few weeks?  It's difficult to tell, in an increasingly crowded and violent plaza.  Sources: AFN Tijuana

WATCH OUT NEW AREA CODE Costly NEW AREA CODE: READ AND PASS ALONG ...

 

 

8  09 Area Code We actually received a call last week from the809 area  code .   The woman said 'Hey, this is Karen. Sorry I missed you- get back to us quickly. I have something important to tell you.' Then she repeated a phone number beginning with809   We did not respond. Then this week, we received the following e-mail: Do Not DIAL AREA CODE809, 284, AND 876 from the U.S. or Canada.   THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION PROVIDED TO US BY AT&T. DON'T EVER DIAL AREA CODE 809   This one is being distributed all over the US ... This is pretty scary, especially given the way they try to get you to call.   Be sure you read this and pass it on. They get you to call by telling you that it is information about a family member who has been ill or to tell you someone has been arrested, died, or to let you know you have won awonderful prize, etc.   In each case, you are told to call the809 number right away.   Since there are so many new area codes these days, people unknowingly return these calls.   If you call from the U.S. or Canada , you will apparently be charged a minimum of $2425 per-minute.   And you'll also get a long recorded message. The point is, they will try to keep you on the phone as long as possible to increase the charges.  WHY IT WORKS:   The 809     area code is located in the Dominican Republic.   The charges afterward can become a real nightmare. That's because you did actually

 

make the call. If you complain, both your local phone company and your long distance carrier will not want to get involved and will most likely tell you that they are simply providing the billing for the foreign company. You'll end up dealing with a foreign company that argues they have done nothing wrong.   Please forward this entiremessage to your friends, family and colleagues to help them become  aware of this scam.

This seems so very familiar - Maybe they are making a comeback - I have gotten a number of them (maybe them) but the giveaway to me is that the person says to call immediately about something very important to me but never gives a clue to what it is and, since i hate the phone anyway, it is not difficult for me to not call - Be careful
