Syrian President Bashar Assad
TEL AVIV – Syria, aided by Iran, has deployed a strengthened army along Israel's northern border and is prepared to launch a surprise war against the Jewish state, according to senior Israeli security officials.

The development comes as Prime Minister Ehud Olmert yesterday told the Knesset he is ready for direct negotiations with Syria aimed at an Israeli retreat from the Golan Heights, strategic mountainous territory that looks down on Israeli population centers twice used by Damascus to attack the Jewish state.

With Israelis this week commemorating the 40th anniversary of the Six-Day War – when neighbors Egypt, Jordan and Syria attacked the Jewish state – Israeli security officials told WND Syria has prepared for a confrontation and is capable of launching an immediate war.

The officials say the Syrian army is deployed along the Syrian side of the Golan Heights with strengthened forces after carrying out the past few weeks stepped-up training of troops. The officials noted the open movement of Syrian Scud missiles near the border with Israel and said Syria recently increased production of rockets and acquired missiles capable of hitting central Israeli population centers.

The Syrian army has improved its fortifications, according to the Israeli security officials, and has received modern, Russian-made anti-tank missiles similar to the ones that devastated Israeli tanks during the last Lebanon war, causing the highest number of Israeli troop casualties during the 34 days of military confrontations. Syria also received from Russia advanced anti-aircraft missiles.

The officials noted Syria stepped up the pace of weapons, including rockets, being shipped from the Syrian border to the Lebanese Hezbollah militia. Just yesterday, a truckload of weaponry meant for Hezbollah was confiscated by the Lebanese army.

Yossi Baidatz, chief of military intelligence for the Israel Defense Forces, said the Syrian-backed Hezbollah is rebuilding its forces in southern Lebanon near the Israeli border in areas where international forces are deployed with the specific charge of preventing the Lebanese militia's rearming.

The security officials said the greatest threat Syria poses to the Jewish state are the country's missiles and rockets. They noted Syria recently test-fired two Scud-D surface-to-surface missiles, which have a range of about 250 miles, covering most Israeli territory. The officials said the Syrian missile test was coordinated with Iran and is believed to have been successful. It is not known what type of warhead the missiles had.

In addition to longer-range Scuds, Syria is in possession of shorter-range missiles such as 220 millimeter and 305 millimeter rockets, some of which have been passed on to Hezbollah.

Israel also has information Syria recently acquired and deployed Chinese-made C-802 missiles, which were successfully used against the Israeli navy during Israel's war against the Lebanese Hezbollah militia last July and August. The missiles were passed to Syria by Iran, Israeli security officials told WND.

Israeli security officials said Syria is preparing for a summer war. But they said there was an argument within the Israeli intelligence community whether the military build-up is for an attack or is meant by Syria to pressure Israel into vacating the Golan Heights. Some officials said Syria estimates the U.S. or Israel will attack Iran, and Syria will be drawn into a larger military confrontation by opening up a front against northern Israel. Also, the officials said, Syria may believe Israel will attack first and its preparations are defensive in nature.

The Israeli army is not taking any chances. The Israel Defense Forces Tuesday carried out a mock attack on a "Syrian" village during a major exercise in the Negev. The Israeli soldiers besieged and occupied the village, designed to be similar to towns on the Syrian side of the Golan. Similar war exercises were carried out in Israel the past few months, including a mock attack on Damascus.

Syrian President Bashar Assad has multiple times told his state-run media the past few months Damascus is preparing for war. He warned Israel to evacuate the Golan Heights.

This past weekend, Assad called for "better cooperation" between Damascus and Tehran in "the confrontation with the Zionist regime and the USA," according to a report published Sunday by Iran's official state news agency, IRNA.

Yesterday, an official from Assad's Baath party warned in a WND interview if Israel doesn't vacate the Golan, residents in the strategic territory would launch "resistance operations" against Israeli communities.

Meanwhile, Olmert yesterday told the Israeli Knesset he is willing to hold "peace talks" with Syria without any preconditions. At the same Knesset hearing, Israel's security cabinet decided to establish a ministerial committee to discuss the security threat posed by Syria. The committee, led by Olmert, is made up largely of the same war lawmakers who helped shape Israel's war against Hezbollah last summer. Those lawmakers were slammed in a recent government war probe for multiple failures during the war.

Olmert – faced with devastatingly low poll numbers and calls from the public and senior officials to resign – reportedly directed staffers at Israel's Foreign Ministry to prepare for the possibility of talks with Syria.

Some analysts here have speculated in the Israeli media Olmert's ratings could rise if he reached out to his leftist base and conducted negotiations with the Palestinians or Syria.

According to the Israeli media, Olmert tapped third parties to approach Syria to feel out whether Damascus is seriously interested in negotiations.

Syria, which signed a military alliance with Iran, openly hosts Hamas and Islamic Jihad leaders. The U.S. accuses Syria of fueling and aiding the insurgency in Iraq. Israel says Syria has been allowing large quantities of weapons to be transported from its borders to Hezbollah. Syria has been widely blamed for the 2005 assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.

Syria is accused by Israel and pro-Democratic Lebanese politicians of fueling instability in Lebanon the past few weeks by backing Fatah al-Islam, a group claiming connections to al-Qaida that has been battling the Lebanese Army since May 20, killing some 107 people, including 47 soldiers and 60 terrorists.

The clashes erupted just before the U.N. was set to call for the establishment of an international tribunal to try the killers of Hariri. Syria has been widely blamed for the assassination and for a string of subsequent attacks that have rocked Lebanon.

AMERICANS UNITED FOR SEPARATION OF CHURCH & STATE HAVE GONE MUTE

AMERICANS UNITED FOR SEPARATION OF CHURCH & STATE HAVE GONE MUTE

The Rev. Jim Wallis is mobilizing the “Christian Left.” And he’s a force to be reckoned with. Wallis wants to be to the Left what Jerry Falwell was to the Christian Right.

The Rev. Wallis is editor in chief of Sojourners, a liberal Christian magazine, and the largest network of progressive Christians in the country. On June 3-6 Pentecost 2007: Taking Vision to the Streets will be held to “call individuals, churches, and most importantly, our political leaders to commit to putting poverty at the top of our national agenda. We believe that the conversation about moral values in America has been widening and deepening, building into a movement for real change.”

Wallis has invited Democratic presidential hopefuls Sen. Hillary Clinton, Sen. Barack Obama and former Sen. John Edwards to the candidate forum. CNN will serve as the exclusive broadcaster of the event.

CNN?!

That’s right. CNN has agreed to air a forum organized by a group of progressive Christians. And that’s not all. The Rev. Wallis invited CNN anchor and special correspondent Soledad O'Brien to moderate the forum, and she accepted.[1]

The following is CNN’s press release:

“CNN will serve as the exclusive broadcaster of a presidential candidate forum on faith, values and politics during the Sojourners "Pentecost 2007" conference in Washington, D.C. The event will be held Monday, June 4, on the campus of The George Washington University, and CNN will broadcast the forum live during the 7 p.m. (ET) hour of The Situation Room.

The Rev. Jim Wallis of Sojourners and author of the best selling book God’s Politics: Why the Right Gets It Wrong and the Left Doesn’t Get It, has invited Democratic presidential candidates Sen. Hillary Clinton, former Sen. John Edwards and Sen. Barack Obama to share their ideas and proposals about pressing social issues with a special emphasis on poverty.

Wallis also invited CNN anchor and special correspondent Soledad O'Brien to moderate the forum.

Sojourners, which is the largest network of progressive Chistians in the nation, was founded in inner-city Washington, D.C., in 1971.”

Wallis says he also intends to hold a forum for Republican candidates. Which begs the question, will CNN air the Republican forum as well? Perhaps a better question is, would CNN air a Republican forum organized by Concerned Women for America?

The wily Wallis’ plan is to use “religious” language in hopes of luring evangelicals away from the Republican Party to vote Democratic. In 2005, 15 Democrat House members invited Wallis to be their guest of honor at a breakfast on Capitol Hill. What, pray tell, was the topic of discussion between clergyman and congressmen? How to turn religious voters into Democrats. .Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid acknowledged that Wallis is working closely with the leadership of the Democratic Party.

Who exactly is the Rev. Jim Wallis? According to Traditional Values Coalition,

“FrontPageMagazine.org has published a lengthy expose on Jim Wallis’ far-left background, including his anti-capitalist views and his support of Communist or terrorist regimes throughout the history of Sojourners. While Wallis was in seminary, he founded an anticapitalist magazine called Post-American. In it, Wallis called for the redistribution of wealth and governmentmanaged economies. This anti-capitalist worldview is expressed in religious terms as a quest for “social justice.” In 1971, Wallis moved his Post-American operation to Washington, DC and renamed it Sojourners. Throughout the history of Sojourners, Wallis has taken a consistently left-wing and anti-American stance. He was an anti-war activist against the Vietnam War. After the fall of Vietnam to the North Vietnamese Communist tyrants, Wallis actually criticized the refugees fleeing from that nation. He claimed they were leaving Vietnam “to support their consumer habit in other lands.” In short, they were leaving Vietnam because they had become greedy capitalists who didn’t wish to live under a socialist dictatorship.”[2]

The Rev. Jim Wallis may be a man of the cloth, but watch out! He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing and “No matter how well you train a wolf to say ‘Baaaaa,’ it doesn’t change an important fact—he is still a wolf.”[3]

So my question is, where is the Americans United for the Separation of Church and State when you need them? As Gary Bauer put it, “Those worried about the separation of church and state should be ‘up in arms’ about a candidate forum being held next week called ‘Pentecost 2007.’”

The Americans United for the Separation of Church and State have suddenly gone mute.

SOCIAL SECIENCE: AMERICA'S IMPLANTED RELIGIOUS LEADERSHIP

SOCIAL SECIENCE: AMERICA'S IMPLANTED RELIGIOUS LEADERSHIP
Nancy Levant
June 5, 2007
NewsWithViews.com

It is this writer’s opinion that the divisions in the Christian religion – the denominations – worked like political charms to all but topple the religion on American soil. In light of the fact that nearly 90% of our churches are now governmental/corporate entities (501-c-3’s), perhaps this was the ultimate road to unalienable ruin. But for certain, the voice of the church was divided and replaced with new missions, beliefs, and social/civil mandates. As such, a new priesthood evolved, which now defines and directs the moral values, moral COMPASS, and behavioral trajectory of the American people.

We the people now live under the professional guidance of social sciences. In fact, we are all profiled and counseled by social scientists of many, many makes and measures. Who amongst us does not personally know an MSW, an “advocate,” or a “counselor” working in one “human service” system or another? And who among these “professionals” does not have pen, multiple triplicate forms, and computer entry screens with your names highlighted and in hand?

We the people are now told by our socialist scientists what, when, and how to eat; when and how to sleep, which and how many drugs we are required to take, what to learn and not learn, what to believe and not believe, how and where to volunteer our community services, what careers we should pursue, what life-ling learning courses, certifications, licenses, and credentials we must have to work; what is politically acceptable, what religions are acceptable and unacceptable, what our beliefs regarding gender definition and reproduction should be, and why we must be genetically profiled to determine the reproductive fitness of our personal gene pools.

We are counseled, referred, profiled, and directed in our schools, churches, health care clinics and hospitals, in our mental and social health attitudes, political inclinations and designations, through our TV sets, and throughout all aspects of our “community citizenship” duties and mandates.

We the people are counseled, profiled, and directed toward and into homeowner association living, live-work units, co-op housing and food partnerships, consensus-based and democratic living arrangements, community service (mandatory “volunteerism”), and we are forcibly envisioned by group consensus opinion.

We the people are counseled, profiled, and directed to live as Communitarians vs. individuals with choice, personal opinions, and personal freedom to make individual life decisions. In fact, you have no personal freedom to make decisions whatsoever. You are, in fact, Communitarian people without any freedom whatsoever. If in doubt, ask your social worker what they do with your “profile” if you disagree with their “assessment” of your condition or situation. Ask your social worker where and to whom your “profile” is forwarded once their forms are completed. For that matter, ask them who funds their “community human service project” of which you are forcibly directed – no doubt, having been referred from another “human service” organization or “social” worker.

It would appear that religious guidance in America has been replace by a new priesthood - new religious leadership, so to speak – and one which far, far outweighs the former authority and powers of ministers, pastors, priests, and others. It would appear that totalitarian observation and control of we the people has fallen into the hands of the MSWs, advocates, and professional counselors who now force-direct the beliefs, behaviors, and courses of our lives – and under threats of “mental” and “drug therapy” designations. In other words, one dares not disagree with nor disregard the authority of the social scientists that have acquired the authority to take your children and your sanity if you are seen as a “threat” to their politically prepared definitions of proper “community” opinion.

They have the authority to drug your elders to death. They have the authority to drug your children into insanity or lethargy. They have the authority to forward your entire personal “profile” to their governmental grantors, who, in turn, have the authority to forward your entire profile to the COMPASS data base.

The Communitarian system of governance pays social scientists to govern YOU under threats of many makes and measures. They are the “gatekeepers,” so to speak, who enforce through “counseling and referral,” your total social exposure and control of your behavior and opinions. We’ll just call them priests on dictatorship steroids.

These “human service agents” are crawling all over your public schools systems – in EVERY public school - your daycare centers, your healthcare clinics and organizations, EVERY social/human service organization, and even your public libraries, who are now quietly pushing Teen Screen in their after-school “care” programs for teens.

And how willingly we offer ourselves to these “counselors” and their data bases – how willingly we appreciate their “human service” on our behalf. How willingly we walk into “screenings” of every make and measure – health screenings (mobile units), school screenings (from pre-K through university education), mental health screenings, Internet screening/screen profile date entry, homeowner associations screenings (mandatory interviews before being “invited” to participate in a homeowner association “community”), etc. – the key word being “screening.”

It’s all about transformation, folks – your transformation. Our “screeners” are our behavioral priests, and they operate with the powers of threats behind their smiling human service faces. And they have been thoroughly trained and are well paid to carry out the mandated threats of their financial grantors.

Too old to live and contribute? You are slated for drug overdose. Too cocky to follow rules? You are slated for chemical redirection (drug therapy). Too selfish to become a community servant? You are slated for mandatory volunteerism. Too individualistic to settle into consensus rules and regulations? You are red flagged in the COMPASS data base, which also makes future employment with a community partnership next to impossible. Too traditionally religious? You are slated to be an emotional child abuser and a mentally ill extremist. Too Constitutionally guaranteed? You are slated to be a dissident and enemy combatant. This you doubt? Just ask your social worker, advocate, or counselor. Or, for that matter, ask your 501-c-3 church leader – the ones who answer to the Department of Homeland Security via Executive Order 13397.

One tip: Be very careful about your confessions to social scientists. They are paid to profile and report. Remember that your Americanism, individuality, freedom, and brain now belong to their governing and financial masters, and they are checking to make sure you follow all Communitarian rules.

GETTING THE GOVN'T. THE THIRD WORLD DESERVES

GETTING THE GOVN'T. THE THIRD WORLD DESERVES

by Selwyn Duke
June 1, 2007
NewsWithViews.com

When Thomas Jefferson said that "people get the government they deserve," it was more than just a clever turn of phrase. It also was not an isolated insight but a timeless truth, one expressed by many. William Cowper said,

"When was public virtue to be found when private was not?"

Benjamin Franklin stated,

"Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become more corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters."

Truth be known, I could probably fill a book with the words of wise ones who have spoken in kind. But, you know, I understand this principle well. I know that people get the government they deserve; what bothers me is that I'm going to get the government they deserve.

You should be bothered, too. With the "people" changing radically through Third World immigration (Ted Kennedy's 1965 immigration act ensures that 85 percent of immigrants come from the Third World and Asia), it's legitimate to wonder how demographics influence democracy. And it's not hard to understand how these folks will shape government, for they have done so before - in their own lands.

Since our largest immigrant group hails from Mexico, let's look south of the border. Mexico is a thoroughly corrupt country, not at all unique in the Third World but certainly emblematic of it. For instance, they have the dubious distinction of possibly having the most corrupt police force in the world, as Mexican authorities enforce whatever law pays them the most. According to a documentary on the subject, you can buy your way out of a fatal hit-and-run for 450 dollars.

But the corruption is so systemic that many of us have heard the stories ourselves. I remember being told of a man who traveled to Mexico and was mugged by the police (a documented example of theft by Mexican police can be found here). Then I heard about a hapless soul who had to sell his home to pay tribute to a family with more clout and a grudge against him; the police payed him a visit and told him he'd be shot if he didn't. Most recently, an acquaintance told me how he was pulled over for running a stop sign that didn't exist and had to pay the crooked cop a bribe so he could continue on his way. And this corruption is mirrored in every aspect of Mexican society, in the bureaucrats, the courts and, of course, the politicians.

This is why cultural equivalency doctrine is nonsense. People may complain about corruption here, and while it certainly exists, it's the exception, not the norm; by and large, we are still governed by the rule of law. We don't fully appreciate this because in just the same way some of us take our lifestyle for granted - not realizing ours is a life of silk and satin as compared to most of the world - we also take for granted that one will be able to conduct everyday business and others will play by the rules. But in most of the world this is the exception, not the norm.

In other words, if we want to descend into a culture of corruption, all we need do is continue the importation of Third Worlders through immigration, both illegal and legal. Naturalization won't inculcate virtue; rather, they will bring their passions, ideology and voting habits with them and lend their support to the same kinds of corrupt leftists they supported in their native lands.

As to this, first-time Hispanic voters cast ballots for Bill Clinton by a staggering margin of fifteen to one. So, while Bush once said that family values don't stop at the border, it certainly seems that free market ones do. Preying on this, there is a tacit offer being made by the traitorous politicians among us:

Listen, come here with millions of your fellow travelers and vote for us, and, oh, oh, the rape shall commence. We'll give you the wealth of the native people; we don't know how to say it in Spanish, but we have a nice euphemism: "Redistribution." And the provincialists who would call it theft are simply too stupid to understand that if we make it legal, it cannot be wrong.
Whenever I sound this alarm, I always receive emails from those who call me an alarmist, if not something worse. They state with assurance that these Third Worlders will assimilate, just as Americans always had.

They dream.

If you want a glimpse of things to come (unless we reverse course), just study states in which Third Worlders have settled. California was once a place where Ronald Reagan reigned supreme, a conservative citadel. Now, with the majority of its population being of Third World and Asian heritage, it's on the cutting edge of societal devolution. Its senators are Barbara Boxer and Diane Crimestein, and it has become a metaphor for politically correct insanity. Reagan could be resurrected with all his charm and oratorical splendor, and he would not win his home state.

Arizona is another prime example. Once synonymous with Barry Goldwater, it now elects senators such as John McCain and Jon Kyl, amnesty advocates both. Hey, they know their constituency.

What do you think will happen when the Third World invasion hits your region? Is your state possessed of a special aura that will magically transform these groups' collective ideology? The truth is that once the whole nation looks like California, you'll be pressing two for English.

If you're a leftist such as Nancy Pelosi or Hillary Clinton, you welcome this importation of socialist-minded voters. If Lady Macbeth is her party's nominee, California will be a lock, and if the whole nation looked like the Golden State . . . well, her biggest worry would be competition from the left. Yes, just imagine, if we become Mexico North, we'll have a Hillary Clinton or Al Gore on the right against a Hugo Chavez on the left. Talk about the lesser of two evils.

Many have opined that this demographic trend spells doom for the Republican Party. This epitaph is premature, however, so be not afraid if you're comforted by the sight of an office holder with an "R" beside his name. Political parties are remarkably malleable; like water, they take the shape of the vessel in which they find themselves. Sure, the Republicans will initially struggle to "rehabilitate" their image as an entity not given to nanny state, cradle-to-grave giveaways and perennial pandering to minority angst, but they shall persevere. You'll get your candidates with the R's. Although they may need to have Z's to the left of them.

As for those welcoming this cultural suicide, they will learn the hard way that one must be careful what he wishes for; you see, by and large, they know not what they sow. The politicians are blinded by power, the business interests by money, and the Mexicans by ethnic patriotism. And, ironically, it is the last group that will probably be most unhappy as we devolve into Mexico North. The only concerns of politicians and business are, respectively, power here and now and money here and now. Most of these people are fairly old, and life beyond the next few elections or few dozen financial quarters is of no consequence. If they are still around, perhaps assimilating into the culture of the French Riviera by joining the locals in mockery of boorish Americans, their Lear jets will spirit them away to lands of milk and honey and their plunder will buy them all the political favors and favorable court rulings a Master of the Universe could ever need.

The hapless Third Worlders, like most of the rest of us, won't be so fortunate. Languishing in a nation reminiscent of Blade Runner (that is, assuming America remains intact), they won't have pockets deep enough in which to keep police, bureaucrats, judges and politicians. They will occupy the second lowest tier in an economic caste system - right above white native Americans.

Of course, one group that will welcome this cultural and economic breakdown is the Islamists. A corrupt, balkanized land where political correctness carries the day is fertile soil for those who prey on desperate souls yearning for meaning and moral order.

Be assured, though, immigration will come to an end. Once the rape of these United States is complete, with money redistributed, productivity and wealth creation squelched and currency devalued, immigrants will stop coming here. People generally don't go from one Third World country to another.

With the picture I've painted, one might think I have stock in the maker of Prozac. Theoretically, though, we could still right the ship. But the first step is the termination of an abusive relationship: Our love affair with immigration. The historical norm is to protect your shores from culturally imperialistic foreign elements, not invite them in. And the only reason this simple truth escapes us is that we have fallen victim to immigration and diversity dogma, to a sinister salesmanship, a leftist juggernaut that could sell a full-length burka to a NOW member. And, in a way, that's exactly what they're doing.

Or perhaps it's more like selling pork carnitas to a jihadist.

No, actually, it's more like selling death to a civilization.

SOCIAL SECURITY, VETERANS AND ALL BENEFITS WILL END

SOCIAL SECURITY, VETERANS AND ALL BENEFITS WILL END

By Andrew C. Wallace
June 4, 2007
NewsWithViews.com

Seniors have only two choices, either defeat this amnesty bill completely, or Hurry Up and Die with Dignity while you still have the resources.

President Bush and supporters of Amnesty in Congress make me very angry, because they are such arrogant elitist snobs who think Americans are so inferior, and so stupid, as to believe their elaborate, untrue and deceptive fairy tales regarding illegal invaders, SPP and amnesty.

Social Security and all other benefits for Americans will soon end if illegal invaders are allowed to remain in this country on any basis. Congress is voting to give them our benefits to increase the profits of criminal employers. Every tax dollar spent on benefits for illegal invaders comes out of our pockets and goes into the pockets of criminal employers which is effectively looting our country and reducing most Americans to abject poverty

Illegal invaders are bankrupting our country costing us billions which will soon be trillions, so do your duty as a citizen and call your representatives every day, or kiss your Social Security and your country, Goodbye.

Elected and appointed officials at all levels of government are guilty of Treason by refusing to obey the Constitution and Laws of the United States relating to invasion resulting in murder, rape, robbery and molestation of thousands of Americans by million of invaders.

Demand that your Senators and Representative in Congress defeat any new law giving illegal invaders anything, end citizenship for children of illegals, enforce existing law and establish a ten year moratorium on all immigration. This would give government time to organize and root out the hundreds of thousands of terrorists and criminals hiding among the millions of illegal invaders who must also be deported on sight.

This Treason has resulted in a continuing invasion that was encouraged, supported, financed and protected by a criminal partnership between business elites and government officials for a share of the blood money. Except for Lou Dobbs and Glenn Beck all of our media refuses to report negative information on illegal invaders because they too expect to profit from our poverty.

Many officials at all levels of government do whatever they please regardless of the Constitution and Laws of the United States resulting in wide spread Anarchy, Death and Crime.

We must quickly return to Constitutional Government and the rule of Law by expelling the traitors from government in a lawful manner by prosecuting them for treason and defeating them at the polls, regardless of party.

Americans will not long tolerate the lawlessness and anarchy caused by this treason. Soon people will be forced to exercise their rights to self defense due to anarchy caused by the repudiation of our constitution and laws by traitors in government who refuse to protect us from invasion, murder, rape, robbery, molestation and financial destruction. These same traitors are openly attempting to turn over our sovereignty to elites, this is called the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America-SPP. Now you know why our founding fathers wanted us to have guns and why elites want gun control. Our constitution is truly a great document that is under attack by government officials and elites, we must defend it.

Our constitution is the basis for all government power, but if those in government refuse to comply with the constitution then they have repudiated the very source of their power and there for should have no position, or power in government. Votes by these people in congress should be disputed in court.

You must quickly bring Treason charges against all elected and appointed representatives at all levels of government who refuse to obey the constitution and laws of the United States. Your Senators and Representatives who profit from the death and destruction caused by invaders and vote to give them amnesty or anything while ignoring protests from the great majority of Americans must be charged with treason. Go to opensecrets.org for list of financial contributors to individual politicians, then verify that some contributors hire illegals, now you have a money connection. Do not ignore officials of sanctuary cities.

Failure to enforce, or aid in enforcement of Federal Law is known as Nullification and was a major cause of our Civil War which is exactly what officials of Sanctuary cities are doing today resulting in Anarchy. We now have Federal Officials ignoring Federal Law also. These traitors, for their own benefit, have put us on a very dangerous and slippery slope to destruction. Nullification and other similarities to our own Bloody Civil War are terrifying.

I am sure that you can find a lawyer who is a patriot and will help. You must do this now in your own state. Be certain that prosecutors and the media know that you are serious and that this is part of a national effort. Treason is a federal crime and must be prosecuted by U.S. Attorneys and every one of them works for President Bush. But maybe some of them are patriots and love this country more than working a little longer for President Bush. Even if a U.S. Attorney refuses to bring charges you have sent a most powerful message. Please let me know if you find other legal means to fight these people such as state charges, or using RICO-Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations. RICO was passed to bring down organized crime which is certainly what we have in Congress and Sanctuary cities. RICO is also being used by citizens to collect damages from criminal employers of illegal invaders. You may also use U.S. Code-Title 42, Sec. 1983. “Civil Action For Deprivation of any Rights, Privileges, or Immunities secured by the Constitution and laws” but denied by state and local officials such as in sanctuary cities.

I also think this Amnesty Bill is unconstitutional be cause government does not have the power to legalize unconstitutional actions by government and business.

If we should fail in our attempt to defeat this Amnesty bill we will lose everything. At some point in the near future when the reality of our new poverty can no longer be ignored by average Americans, we will have ethnic and class warfare.

One consolation is that politicians of either party who vote for Amnesty can never be elected to office in 2008 or ever. I think most will leave the country because they will be so detested by most Americans.

THE SUBORNING OF PRESIDENTIAL TREASON BY A DERELICT CONGRESS

THE SUBORNING OF PRESIDENTIAL TREASON BY A DERELICT CONGRESS

By Jim R. Schwiesow

“The laws should be rigidly enforced which prohibit the immigration of a servile class to compete with American labor, with no intention of acquiring citizenship, and bringing with them and retaining habits and customs repugnant to our civilization.” - Grover Cleveland - First Inaugural Address - Wednesday, March 4, 1885

The substantial number of messages sent by readers of my article, “It’s Time To Standup – Put Up – Or Shutup” was both unanticipated and telling. It pointed up a rapidly building and simmering resentment and anger in regard to 1. The impact of illegal aliens upon the nation, and 2. the encouragement of the illegal entry of huge numbers of aliens by George Walker Bush and a congress that aids and abets his treasonous activities. The delivering of the country, on the domestic front, to the destructive forces of a continuing and deadly invasion of illegal aliens and the equally deadly pursuit of a resource wasting belligerence on the international level has set the stage for an unprecedented conflict between the people of the nation and the government that ignores their concerns in regard to these issues.

Mr. Bush follows the dictates of the corporatists and ignores the wishes of the people, and in connivance with a delinquent congress he has succeeded in pushing the people to their limit by aggressively agitating for open borders, unabated immigration, and a North American Union. The fact is that both he and the congress have succeeded only in removing from among the people any commitment, or persuasion, for even legal immigration. The oft quoted and written sentiment, by maudlin advocates for unrestricted immigration and amnesty for law-breaking illegal aliens, of send us your tired, poor, and huddled masses is falling on deaf ears and blind eyes.. This is not the nineteenth century, and we have no dearth of people.

Thanks to the illogical and stupid thinking on immigration by our so-called political leaders we are experiencing a totally unnecessary population explosion that has severely and negatively impacted the quality of life for the people of this nation.

The people, who foot the bill for the tremendous waste of our resources by Mr. Bush and company, are showing an increasing intolerance for the international intrigues of the president, and they feel no obligation to fund the welfare for illegal aliens, provide free medical care for the same, or to educate their children. Too many legitimate U.S. citizens are being bankrupted by the astronomical cost of medical care, the rampant inflation, and the explosive out of control educational costs in this country to entertain any inclination to support the welfare of law-breaking illegal aliens. The welcome mat is not just wearing thin, it is entirely worn through.

If my mail is any indication illegal aliens are persona non grata even with a great many of our U.S. citizens of Latin American heritage. The president has managed to further irritate an already peeved public by proclaiming that those who are opposed to the pending sell-out to amnesty and the legalization of law-breaking aliens in the senate, “Don’t want what is right for America.” Sometimes the ignorance of the man and his arrogance amazes me. And I am finding out that a great majority in this country are similarly fed up to the ears with the president’s overbearing and condescending political assertions, and his unbridled control of the nation’s course.

Readers from across the nation wrote to register their frustration with the impact that the inflow of hoards of illegal aliens has wrought in regard to their personal lives and the lives of their families. But, it was those from the Southwestern states, particularly Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada and California, who were most outspoken in their comment. The people in these states are, in reality, virtual hostages of illegal aliens, and to say that they are angry is an understatement. The deference by the government for interloping aliens over American citizens has infuriated those who have had their communities and their neighborhoods transformed into bastions of unfriendly, mostly Mexican, aliens. These have hijacked their neighborhoods, increased their local taxes, overloaded their schools and hospitals, and debased their culture. The many letters that I received from readers in these states were uncannily alike. Following are several examples:

“When I moved here (to Nevada) about 12 years ago, my neighborhood was equally balanced by race, now it is 95% Hispanic The prevalent language is Latin American. Most of the Hispanic neighbors have 5 or more cars parked on their front lawn or have taken all of the parking spaces in front of the homes of other residents, and they party all night every Saturday in their garages on their driveways. In the public schools many of the schoolbooks have been edited to pander to the Hispanics. Press 1 for English and 2 for Spanish, what bullshit! And now with the North American Union and the Super highway from Mexico-thru-America-to-Canada, and the planning for an Amero currency, things are looking gray.”

And

“Things have gotten so out of hand today and I've gotten to the point where I'm afraid of what the next day will bring. Virtually all of our freedoms are being taken away, THEY want to now tag us like cattle, we've got millions of illegals marching in our streets demanding their "rights" (their rights are back in their own country), our Border Patrol Agents are in prison for doing their very dangerous jobs, the NAU, etc, etc, etc. It's my idea of waking up in "The Twilight Zone". What used to be considered wrong is now "right", what was unacceptable is now acceptable. The President of "our" country is evil and has no scruples whatsoever. As far as I can ascertain, he's driven by greed and the lust for power and control. It's all so heartbreaking; so very hard to accept.”

There is an increasing loathing of George Bush, and it is a product of his own making. The comments of readers, in regard to the president, were scathing and searing. The animosity runs deep. His swaggering bluster, his disdain for constitutional principles, his monomaniacal mindset in regard to the nationally debilitating war in Iraq, and his never-ending sneaky endeavors for a North American Union and a new world order have made him the object of a deep and abiding resentment by a majority of U.S citizens. Even an incompetent and gratingly patronizing Jimmy Carter did not descend to the level of public condemnation that George W. Bush has achieved during his tenure.

The return to power of the Democrats, granted by the voters in the last congressional election, was not an endorsement of their liberal politics, nor was it an abandonment of conservative principles. It was, in fact, a desperate attempt to curb the dictatorial aspirations of a megalomaniac by removing those Republicans in congress who were, in deference to party loyalty, enabling him in his excesses. The voters gambled that the Democrats, out of vindictiveness and spitefulness, would deny the president his authoritarian overreach for undivided power, and that they would abridge his devastating policies both domestically and internationally. It didn’t work; the Democrats are in complete agreement with the socialistic endeavors of George W. Bush, and they are colluding with him in his quest for wide-open immigration.

They are so lockstep with the president that they, after some transparent self-serving verbiage regarding their opposition to the war, have sanctioned continued funding for his unconstitutional war. The voters have learned a hard lesson, and they are paying a high price for this miscalculation and their lapse of judgment. We can only hope that it is not too late to rectify this mistake and repair the monumental damage that has been done to the country.

CORPORATISM FUNDING THE DEATH OF OUR REPUBLIC

CORPORATISM FUNDING THE DEATH OF OUR REPUBLIC

By: Devvy
June 4, 2007

© 2007 - NewsWithViews.com

“I am concerned for the security of our great nation, not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.” — General Douglas MacArthur.

The American people find themselves in a quandary over the issue of corporatism, the support of free enterprise and refusing to fund their own destruction by supporting these multi national corporations who have and are selling out America. I have always been a staunch supporter of a free enterprise system in which Americans can choose who they decide to do business with or buy products from any company legally operating in this country. Competitiveness not only brings affordability and quality, but it also brings out the best in Americans.

There's no doubt, unless you're in total denial, that most of the U.S. Senate and Bush no longer are making any pretense of representing the American people. I wrote a column March 6, 2006, titled No More Pretense of Representation:

"On March 2, 2006, the counterfeit U.S. Senate passed the insidious un-Patriot Act by a vote of 89-10. This vote flies in the face of a massive outcry from millions of Americans against the Patriot Act and more than 440 cities and counties who refuse to enforce it. Next week the House will do the same. It no longer matters how strong or massive opposition is to what's going on in Washington, DC, the iron fist of totalitarian government continues to squeeze the last gasping breaths of liberty from we the people. There is no longer any pretense these people in Congress (with the exception of one or two) represent we the people or even pretend to uphold the U.S. Constitution. They are far, far beyond that."

[Advertisement: Read, "The Coming Battle" first published in 1899, it predicts how corporations and the money power that grow up around them will deprive Americans of their freedom]

This week the counterfeit U.S. Senate will once again take up the fight over S.1348, the massive amnesty and terrorist facilitation act being sold as immigration reform. Two weeks ago a friend sent e-mail; he lives in Arlen Specter's section of the state. The staffer on the phone in the district office said opposition to S1348 was running 9-1, but Specter was going to vote for it anyway. Last week, Comrade Diane Feinstein, who should be in a federal prison except there are no men with the stones in this country to prosecute her, thinks 8,000+ calls in opposition to S 1348 isn't worthy of her time; her office said it would take at least 30,000 for this Red lover to take the matter seriously. Two weeks ago constituents in Jon Kyle's district were in opposition 20 to 1, yet Kyle is going to vote for it anyway. So you see, these senators serving in office under a law that doesn't exist are no longer making any pretense of representing the people of their districts.

It's all about money. The counterfeit U.S. Senate has no fear of the states because the states have no representation in Congress. They don't fear the gutless cowards who serve as governors for the four border states and they do not fear we the people. These career shysters in Congress take millions of dollars from corporate America and special interest groups who own their souls. Those who want S1348 passed are those who profit from it and they pay well to see it gets passed. Whether it's pharmaceuticals or illegals, the major corporations own these scoundrels. This blanket amnesty will destroy this republic and send a clear message: go ahead and invade America, steal jobs, murder and rape America's children, kill them while driving drunk and by all means, terrorists welcome! If S 1348 isn't enough, another bill is sitting and if it ever becomes law, you will be forced to fund a racist, seditious, organization called La Raza; they hate America and gringos.

"Tens of millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars soon could be flowing into the National Council of La Raza, an organization that advocates for civil rights for Hispanics and has connections to groups that advocate the separation of several southwestern states from the rest of the nation. The proposal has been made by U.S. Rep. Ruben Hinojosa, and it would give the organization that describes itself as "the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States – [working] to improve opportunities for Hispanic Americans" $5 million annually starting in 2008, with the funding to double the next year and then continue at that level "for each fiscal year thereafter."

Never mind that this bill is unconstitutional, there's no money in the treasury. It's overdrawn almost $9 TRILLION dollars. This congressman wants to write another hot check and slap more debt on the back of your children and grand babies.

If you've done enough research on this amnesty bill, corporate foot prints are all over it, i.e., the Z-visas. We the people have choices, but they aren't easy ones to make. If we boycott these companies, they lose business and our fellow Americans find themselves out of work. If we own stock in these corporations selling out America and buy their products and services, we are funding our own destruction. I can't tell you what to do, but I know as sure as the sun rises, that we must make these short term sacrifices in order to send a clear message to any company doing business in this country: if you support S.1348, if you out source American jobs to Communist China and other foreign nations, and if you continue to fund the destruction of this country, I will NOT buy your goods and services. I will go without. I have and will continue to do so. I don't use google, I use scroogle.org. I don't buy anything from the corporations below or use their services. I refuse to speak with any foreign operator for any company that has sold out my fellow Americans and their good jobs for cheap labor in India, Communist China or Mexico. China Mart (Walmart) employs 100 Chinese workers to 1 US worker. Slave labor in foreign countries. I will not patronize them, their products or own their stock:

Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Exxon Mobil Corp., General Motors Corp., Ford Motor Co., General Electric Co., ChevronTexaco Corp., ConocoPhillips, Ctigroup Inc., International Business Machines Corp., American International Group, Inc., Hewlett-Packard Co., Verizon Communications Inc., The Home Depot Inc., Berkshire Hathaway Inc., Altria Group Inc., McKesson Corp., Cardinal Health Inc., State Farm Insurance Cos., The Kroger Co., Fannie Mae, The Boeing Co., AmerisourceBergen Corp., Target Corp., Bank of America Corp., Pfizer Inc., J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., Time Warner Inc., The Procter & Gamble Co., Costco Wholesale Corp., Johnson & Johnson, Dell Inc., Sears Roebuck and Co., SBC Communications Inc., Valero Energy Corp, Marathon Oil Corp., MetLife Inc., Safeway Inc., Albertson's Inc., Morgan Stanley, Medco Health Solutions, United Parcel Service Inc., Atlanta, J.C. Penney Co. Inc., The Dow Chemical Co., Midland, Mich., Walgreen Co., Deerfield, Ill., Microsoft Corp., TheAllstate Corp., Lockheed Martin Corp., Wells Fargo & Co., Lowe's Cos. Inc., Walgreen Co., Microsoft Corp., and let's not forget Halliburton and the other companies making billions off the invasion of Iraq and the blood of American soldiers.

That's just a short list of corporations that own Congress, but they are powerful because Americans enrich them with consumer dollars. If Americans would simply change their buying habits, we could turn things around in a relatively short period of time. Most won't because they can't do without "things" or they won't take the time to buy Made in America. A tragedy for OUR country. Another alarming fact: "...the U.S. government revealed for the first time how much of its classified intelligence budget is spent on private contracts: a whopping 70 percent." See The corporate takeover of U.S. intelligence.

I will not be intimidated by propaganda from slimy, career politicians like John McCain that rounding up and deporting these criminals who break our immigration laws will cause riots in this country. John McCain is a coward, too afraid to begin a real round up of the illegals already here and getting them deported as President Eisenhower did. This is one of the major reasons I've been a staunch supporter of Dr. Edwin Vieira's effort to revitalize the militia under the state legislatures. Last week an article on this very subject was penned by Lionel Waxman of Inside Tucson Business:

"But the violence in northern Mexico is not stopping at the border. It's headed this way and a lot of Tucsonans know it. It is crossing the border because there is little to stop it. The Border Patrol is in virtual rebellion against its supervisors. They have felt betrayed by prosecution of some of them for what they see as doing their job. Union Local 2544 of the Border Patrol has published its position of “no confidence” in supervisory and command personnel. They have called a meeting (members only) for June 13 to consider their options."

Did I not warn of this last year in my column, When illegals go berserk will your state be prepared? I did. America has the right to restrict immigration for the good of our country. We have the right to deport any illegal alien, regardless of country of origin, as soon as they are identified. This isn't racism or about civil rights. It's about our laws, so junk the rhetoric. Too many employers in this country don't want our laws upheld, they want cheap labor. They don't care how many Americans are slaughter by drunken illegals on our roads. They don't care how many Americans lose their jobs in favor of cheap labor. They don't care about terrorists crossing our borders. They care nothing about America, only how rich they can become. And, if you own stock in these corporations like Microsoft, Dell and all the rest who have sold out the American worker, that dividend check drips with the blood of innocents:

Unlicensed DUI 'illegal' kills mom, 2 children
Half of family wiped out in Christmas Eve crash, December 24, 2006

"A suspected illegal alien from Mexico is being held in the Salt Lake County jail in lieu of $500,000 after running a red light and broad siding a family of six, killing three, on Christmas Eve. Carlos Prieto was arraigned this morning and charged with three counts of automobile homicide, three counts of driving under the influence and driving without a license....The Ceran family, active in local theater and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, were returning home after attending a performance of Dicken's "The Christmas Carol," which featured several family members, when their car was struck by a truck driven by Carlos Prieto. The crash killed Cheryl Ceran, 47, and two of her children, 15-year-old Ian and 7-year-old Julinna. Cheryl Ceran's husband, Gary Ceran, 45, and their 19-year-old daughter, Clarissa, and 12-year-old son, Caleb, were injured." Go thank Swift & Co., they hire illegals in Utah. But, wait! Their concern is how much it will cost them to hire Americans:

"Swift & Co., the third-largest U.S. beef and pork producer, said federal immigration raids at the company's plants, including one in Utah, in December will cost it between $45 million and $50 million, more than previously estimated...lost production from the raids and training of replacement workers would cost about $30 million in the fiscal year through May 27. Swift said Friday in a statement that all four of its beef plants have returned to full staffing after about 950 employees were removed for immigration violations." That's how much Swift & Co., thinks of half a family wiped out by a drunk illegal. If they were diligent in their hiring practices to begin with, they would have figured out how easy it is to nail an illegal applying for work.

There is NO way to process 20 million illegal aliens under this phony "reform" bill. It's a smokes screen. As I have written repeatedly: Illegal aliens have NO rights. No right to any job in this country, no right to free medical treatment, education or anything else. They are not U.S. citizens. They have not earned citizenship, they have slithered across the border like thieves in the night demanding a free ride. If this amnesty bill is passed, the middle class will be living at poverty level within five years. There is no way to verify when these law breakers sneaked into the country. They lied and cheated to get here and they will lie through their teeth to stay here. How, pray tell, can an already broken system process approximately 20 MILLION applications when the very bureaucratic behemoths who are supposed to do this verification work are already so corrupt? Michael Hampton said it well last December when he wrote:

"And nowhere is the corruption more evident than within Immigration and Customs Enforcement, where the reports of crime conducted by ICE employees eclipse the management report summaries....But the biggest section of the report was for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which is charged with protecting the nation's borders, where dozens of agents were prosecuted for various crimes such as harboring fugitives, allowing illegal aliens and drugs to pass through border checkpoints, bribery, workers compensation fraud, identity theft, and sexual assault.

"Transportation Security Administration employees, including federal air marshals, found themselves arrested for stealing from passengers, child pornography, money laundering, and drug smuggling. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, responsible for throwing red tape in front of people who mistakenly think this is a free country and still want to immigrate here, was not immune either. Some of their officers got in trouble for harboring illegal aliens, forging passports, visas and green cards for aliens, or just issuing them outright when they should not have, and sexual assault." The full report from the Department of Fatherland Security can be read here. Anyone who believes upwards of 20 MILLION illegal aliens are simply going to "go home," then come back to get a pat on the head and a "path to citizenship" lives in a dream world.

Watch this short video. THIS is what Congress wants to import more of and it WILL reach your city. Do you want these illegals to remain here and import another 100 million of them if S.1348 becomes law? Forget e-mails, get on the phone and tell your counterfeit U.S. Senator: NO to S.1348, period. You can obtain their DC and district office phone numbers here: www.senate.gov

NEEDED: 3-DIMENSIONAL LEADERS

NEEDED: 3-DIMENSIONAL LEADERS

By Pastor Chuck Baldwin

June 5, 2007

NewsWithViews.com

I recently delivered a Sunday address entitled "The 3-Dimensional Life." This address was motivated by my belief that a major part of America's overall problem today derives from the fact that most people, including our leaders, live 1-dimensional lives. For the most part, they are ignorant of the past and oblivious to the future. Such people are incapable of making wise decisions, because they are only living for the present.

Without an appreciation and awareness of the past, we have no foundation on which to build our lives. Such people have lost all sense of history and heritage, and, without a heritage, they have no understanding or pride in who they are. Neither do they comprehend the morality, convictions, and sacrifices of their ancestors.

Furthermore, without cognizance of the future, we have no rudder or compass to guide us. People who live only for the present have no overriding sense of accountability or consequence. They judge their actions only in the light of immediate results with no regard for the plight of future generations.

Unfortunately, it seems that the vast majority of Americans are living a 1-dimensional life. And there seems to be little doubt that today's civil magistrates are sacrificing the future of America upon the altar of money, power, and ambition. Such conduct will quickly doom our once-great country.

Take a look at the average history book today. Where are the great stories of Washington and America's other Founding Fathers? They are practically nonexistent. Where are the references to the two Great Awakenings that revived spiritual piety in America? Where is the devotion to America's founding principles contained in the Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution, and Bill of Rights? All of this is totally lost to America's current generation.

Without an understanding of how this country started, of the principles upon which it was founded, and of the heroic sacrifices of those who fought to secure our liberty, we cannot make sound judgments regarding our nation's current challenges.

Add to ignorance regarding our past apathy regarding our future, and we are left with absolute chaos. And that's what we have right now in American politics: chaos!

Nothing illustrates this chaos like the current attempt by President George W. Bush, John McCain, and the Democratic leaders in the U.S. Senate to force an amnesty bill for illegal aliens into law. Obviously, Bush and Company lack any real understanding of our history and any real regard for our future or they would not even attempt this monstrous and barbaric bill.

It seems obvious that President Bush and Senate leaders are willing, even eager, to sacrifice America's future security and well-being for reasons that can best be described as transitory, or, at worst, downright threatening.

So determined are George W. Bush and John McCain to pass an amnesty bill that Bush has angrily called his own supporters "unpatriotic" for questioning the bill. McCain went even further.

In Iowa, John McCain defiantly told amnesty bill skeptics that failing to give millions of illegals amnesty would probably mean anarchy and civil unrest for America.

Is John McCain really telling the American people that we should provide amnesty to foreign criminals who have invaded our country for fear that they might foment violence and insurrection? It appears so.

Yet, Senator McCain has apparently given no thought or regard for the consequences that giving up to 60 million aliens amnesty (over the next 20 years) will have upon America's future generations. Folks, this is 1-dimensional living at its very worst!

I invite readers to view my online Sunday address on "The 3-Dimensional Life" free of charge.

While there, one might also wish to watch another recent address entitled "Fight to the Finish." It is located at the same web page.

As always, there is no charge to view or download these speeches. There is also an MP3 version available to download to one's IPOD. And one may view these speeches using either a high speed or dial up modem.

One more thing: my fine staff has just uploaded a brand new Election 2008 page to our web site. This site is being updated almost daily with current news and commentary regarding the major presidential contenders. There is also an overview of the field of candidates and a page specifically devoted to the Constitution Party. Visit the Election 2008 page often.

I believe Third Party politics will play a much greater role in 2008 and that this role will only increase in future elections. And, personally, I believe this will be very healthy for America. The two major parties are thoroughly bought by highly financed special interests. They need to go!

My friends, we must begin electing leaders who have a 3-dimensional perspective on life or this experiment in liberty will quickly expire. And in the meantime, we must do everything we can to defeat the 1-dimensional and very nefarious Bush/McCain/Kennedy amnesty bill currently before the U.S. Senate.

Calling Evil Good - Can God's Judgement be Far Off?

MARRIAGE DIGEST: New poll shows greater acceptance of homosexuality in U.S.;...
By Michael Foust
Jun 1, 2007

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Americans are becoming increasingly more liberal on the issues of homosexuality and "gay marriage," according to a new Gallup Poll.

The survey of 1,003 adults, conducted May 10-13 and released May 29, showed on a number of questions that Americans' tolerance of homosexuality is at an all-time high. For instance:

-– 57 percent of U.S. adults say homosexuality "should be considered an acceptable alternative lifestyle." The previous high was 54 percent, a mark reached three times, including last year. In the current poll, 39 percent say such relations should not be accepted.

–- 47 percent say they personally believe homosexual relations are morally acceptable. The previous high was 44 percent. While 49 percent say such relations are unacceptable, it is the first time that particular number has dropped below 50 percent.

–- 59 percent say homosexual relations should be legal -– just one percentage point below the all-time high of 60 percent in May 2003. Thirty-seven percent say they should not be legal.

–- 42 percent say homosexuality is "something a person is born with," matching the all-time high from last year. Thirty-five percent, an all-time low, say it is a combination of upbringing and environment.

A majority of adults remain opposed to "gay marriage" legalization, although that percentage also is falling. In the latest poll, 53 percent of American adults oppose "gay marriage," while 46 percent support it. Although both numbers are records, they come with caveats. Unlike other Gallup polls in most years, this year's "gay marriage" question was preceded by a number of questions concerning homosexuality that could make the person polled sympathetic to the marriage issue.

"When the same question is asked in other Gallup surveys that do not include such questions, a lower level of support for gay marriage is usually found," Gallup's Lydia Saad wrote in an online analysis.

For instance, in 2005, when the question was not preceded by other questions about homosexuality, opposition to "gay marriage" stood at 56-39 percent. In 2004, it was 61-33 percent.

Additionally, the wording in the question changed. For apparently the first time, Gallup's "gay marriage" question used the phrase "same-sex couples" to describe homosexuals. In past years the question simple referred to "homosexuals." For years, homosexual activists have complained that Gallup's poll was biased because it used the term "homosexual." The other questions this year, though, still used that term.

The poll's "gay marriage" results buck the state-by-state trend. Last November seven states passed constitutional amendments prohibiting "gay marriage" with an average of 63.6 percent of the vote. Including those seven, a majority of states, 27, have similar amendments.

MICH. COURT TO HEAR CASE -- The Michigan Supreme Court announced May 24 it would take up a case that will determine whether the state's constitutional marriage amendment prohibits marriage-like domestic partner benefits for the partners of homosexual public employees, the Detroit Free Press reported. In February a lower court ruled that the amendment did just that.

The amendment, passed in 2004 by a margin of 59-41 percent, prevents the recognition of "gay marriage" or any other "similar union." The Alliance Defense Fund, a pro-family legal group, filed friend-of-the-court briefs with the lower court arguing that the amendment bans such benefits.

The American Civil Liberties Union appealed the lower court ruling to the state Supreme Court.

ORE. CONSERVATIVES GATHER SIGNATURES -- A group of Oregon social conservatives has begun gathering signatures in an attempt to overturn two new laws: one that legalized same-sex domestic partnerships and the other that prohibits discrimination based on "sexual orientation" in housing, public accommodations and the workplace. Opponents say both new laws infringe on religious freedoms.

If conservatives are successful, the Associated Press reported, then voters in November 2008 will decide whether to keep or overturn the laws. The domestic partnerships law grants same-sex couples all the legal benefits of marriage.

Each petition drive must gather just over 55,000 signatures.

Iran and Russia Expanding Islamic War Against US And Israel

Iran and Russia Expanding Islamic War Against US And Israel

By Bill Wilson, KIN Senior Analyst

WASH—Jun 4—KIN-- Iran and Russia appear to be expanding the Islamic war against Israel and the West at a time when the United States is trying to withdraw from the battle front. Sunday, Iranian President Mahmaud Ahmadinejad said that unrest in Lebanese refugee camps and recent rocket attacks from Palestinian positions in Gaza signaled the countdown to bring an end to Israel. Meantime, Ahmadinejad’s second most favored target, the United States, made arrests of four Islamic extremists who were plotting to place explosives on jet fuel supply lines in order to blow up John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York.

Former Pennsylvania Republican Congressman Kurt Weldon, who was vice chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, outlined in his 2005 book “Countdown To Terror” that Iran, had developed a coordinating committee on terrorism called the “Committee of Nine.” Weldon said this committee, which has been operational since April of 2003, “supports and manages international terrorist operations, working with al Qaeda, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, Ansar al Islam, and other major terrorist groups.” The current unrest in Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon is because they are training camps for a branch of al Qaeda, which is exporting terrorists to fight in Iraq and in Israel.

Iran’s hand in coordinating terror activities is not well publicized by the mainstream media or by the U.S. government. Iran, however, has been a financial supporter and weapons provider to Hezbollah, al Qaeda and Hamas, which is using Gaza as a staging ground to shell innocent Israeli citizens with hundreds of missiles. And Russia supports Iran’s efforts by providing weapons and technology. In recent weeks, federal authorities have uncovered two major terrorist plots—one designed to massacre hundreds of troops at Fort Dix in New Jersey and the other to destroy JFK International Airport. Both were apparent independent cells of Islamic extremists.

In addition to the JFK plot, Federal authorities also cited several thwarted terrorist incidents, including the ejection from the country of three teams of Iranian intelligence agents taking pictures of possible target sites in New York. There has been increased terrorist activity in the U.S., Israel, Iraq and Afghanistan since the U.S. has begun its conciliatory approach toward the sponsors of terrorism highlighted by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Syria and President Bush’s authorization of talks with Iran and with terrorists in Iraq. Iran appears to be behind much of the activity. Jesus said in Matthew 24:4, “Take heed that no man deceive you.”
