Two men rammed a flaming sport utility vehicle into the main terminal of Glasgow airport Saturday, crashing into the glass doors at the entrance and sparking a fire, witnesses said. Police said two suspects were arrested.
The airport - Scotland’s largest - was evacuated and all flights suspended, a day after British police thwarted a plot to bomb central London, discovering two cars abandoned with loads of gasoline, gas canisters and nails.

Two men - one of them engulfed in flames - were in the SUV, witnesses told BBC News executive Helen Boaden, who was at the airport at time. She described the men as South Asian.
Clarkson described him as a large South Asian man. “His whole body was on fire…. He was just talking gibberish,” he told the BBC.
“An Asian guy had been pulled out of the car by two police officers he was trying to fight off and they’d got him on the floor,” Grey told the BBC.
“Asian” is of course Brit parlance for Middle Eastern, therefore “south Asian” probably means Pakistani.

PLANTATION, Fla. — One man is dead and another in critical condition after the duo was shot by a customer while they were attempting to rob a Plantation Subway shop Wednesday night, police said.
Police said 71-year-old John Lovell II used a licensed gun to shoot the alleged robbers at the Subway on North Pine Island Road and Sunrise Boulevard.
One customer, who stopped by the restaurant as the incident was taking place, had this to say to NBC 6’s Tisha Lewis:
“If I came by five or 10 minutes earlier, they could have caused a situation where they could have shot me. A lot of things went through my mind,” Sebastian Shakespeare said.
This justice was dished out legally one bullet at a time. Lovell is a retired Marine. He joins an ex-Marine from Grand Rapids, Mich. in the heroes’ column.

DUBLIN, Ireland - Ireland elected its first black mayor Thursday, the latest sign of how rapid immigration is changing this once all-white nation.
Rotimi Adebari, a Nigerian who arrived in Ireland seven years ago as an asylum-seeker, was elected unopposed to lead the council of Portlaoise, a bustling commuter town west of Dublin.
Adebari, 43, who has been an independent politician on Portlaoise Town Council since 2004, was backed by both the right-wing Fine Gael party and left-wing Sinn Fein.
Just when the Irish have a good thing going, they are trying to undo it all.

Mainstream media portray the events in Jena, Louisiana as a “fight,” and a racist white conspiracy because a couple of hangman noose ropes were found on a tree near the school that the students attended.
The legal system sees it for what it was, and that is a one-way assault by blacks with whites as deliberate victims.
“Race Conscious” Vs “Race Specific” June 29, 2007

When courts make decisions that please left-wingers, the decision is usually enforced as if it were part of the Ten Commandments. When they make decisions that do not please left-wingers, enforcing the decision is difficult if it happens at all.
The Seattle Public Schools have essentially thumbed their nose at the U.S. Supreme Court, (while they would have praised the decision if it would have gone their way), stating that they can use “race conscious” means to desegregate their schools, but just not “race specific.”

MCRI Coming to Missouri June 29, 2007

And it will not need a name change. The Ward Connerly organization wants to get MCRI on the ballot in November 2008.
Conventional Wisdom talking heads will speculate that this will get Republicans to the polls next November, (as Republicans are more likely than Democrats to vote for it), and the obvious inference, so CW will say, is that MCRI is just a Republican conspiracy to win a swing state for the Republican Presidential nominee.
How did that work in Michigan last year? Seems to me that MCRI passed there and Miss Granholm and Miss Stabenow won.
The question is really this: How will Missouri Republican officials, including the candidates for office, react to MCRI? Actually, I think a majority of faithful Democrat voters will vote for it, and if Missouri Republicans do like their Michigan counterparts and throw stones at it, it might cost them some statewide races, of which there are plenty in 2008, most important of which is Governor.

The Senate “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” is “dead” again. Eighteen U.S. Senators who supported Tuesday’s cloture vote reneged when various amendments to weaken the soft amnesty failed, so they resumed debate and did not support cloture.
The number of supporters was only 46, meaning that they were even four short of passing the bill if this were a straight up-or-down vote on the measure.
Your calls, faxes and letters worked. Good job.
But I still don’t think it’s dead. The old phrase goes, “Them That Got Is Them That Get.” I still don’t believe that the establishment thinks it’s going to be denied. Even though Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) states that he won’t bring it up in the Senate until 2009, provided he’s still Majority Leader after the 2008 elections, and he seems to want to wait that long as he doesn’t want to bring the measure up in an election year (i.e. wait until there is no election in sight, in order to pull the wool over people’s eyes), I still think that we could all be “surprised” that this monstrosity will be “revived” in the next few weeks.

Tell that to the Democrats running for President.
AP:
WASHINGTON - The struggles of the nation’s blacks — a loyal Democratic voting bloc — topped the agenda Thursday as the party’s eight presidential candidates gathered for their third primary debate.
The debate at Howard University was set to begin just hours after the Supreme Court ruled against public school programs aimed at achieving racial diversity, a certain topic for the event.
The Democrats decried the ruling, saying it turned back the promise of integrated schools that the court laid out 53 years ago in its landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education.
When Republicans will place overtly white issues, concerns and struggles at the top of their agenda has yet to be determined.
Most of the hubbub dealt with the Supreme Court decision yesterday about desegregation programs in the Louisville and Seattle schools. This gets the Democratic Presidential candidates on record as being for the desegregation programs.

Clashes between police and drug traffickers in a slum in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro left 19 people dead, officials have said.
Guns and grenades were used in the fighting, with armoured vehicles and helicopters backing police units.
The violence began when more than 1,000 policemen advanced on Alemao, the slum stronghold of a drug-dealing gang.
Rio de Janeiro officials are trying to make the city safer before it hosts the Pan-American games on 13 July.
Unlike violence between drug gangs, this kind of violence is more comparable to traditional warfare.

Mexican Con Artists Already Forging Documents In Congruence With Senate Soft Amnesty Bill June 27, 2007
Posted by Webmaster in Immigration.comments closed
The head of a Mexican forgery ring was convinced he could make phony documents that illegal aliens could use to indicate fraudulently that they were eligible for a new amnesty, says a government affidavit recounting wiretapped phone calls the man made.
Julio Leija-Sanchez, who ran a $3 million-a-year forgery operation before he was arrested in April, was expecting Congress to pass a legalization program, which he called “amnesty,” and said he could forge documents to fool the U.S. government into believing illegal aliens were in the country in time to qualify for amnesty, a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent said in the affidavit.
In recounting a wiretapped telephone conversation, ICE agent Jason E. Medica said he heard Mr. Leija-Sanchez tell an associate the forgery ring could “fix his papers” to meet the requirements of a legalization program such as the bill the Senate is debating today.
“When Leija-Sanchez said ‘if there’s an amnesty, he can fix his papers,’ Leija-Sanchez was referring to the possibility of pending legislation which would allow a certain class of illegal aliens to remain in the United States, as long as they can prove a term of residency in the United States with no convictions,” agent Medica wrote.
In other words, Mr. Leija-Sanchez studied the Senate “Comprehensive Immigration Reform,” (even as Trent Lott implied that this was something only U.S. Senators and not talk radio hosts were qualified to study), and fine-tuned his forgery operations around the bill’s legal requirements. He also understands the bill to be “amnesty,” something which most backers of the bill flatly deny.
Bond Attempts to Explain Away Cloture Vote June 27, 2007

Columbia Tribune Politics Blog has the story. His excuse is that he might wind up voting against the bill if some egregious amendments and provisions are still part of the bill.
If the bill ultimately passes the Senate, and Bond votes no, then he will probably trumpet his no vote if he runs for re-election in 2010, even though the bill could have never passed the Senate without a successful cloture vote.
The truth of the matter is that Bond and others yielded to pressure put by the White House and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Minority Leader Trent Lott (R-MS).

Connecticut Governor Vetoes In-State Tuition Rates for Illegal Aliens June 27, 2007

Connecticut Governor M. Jodi Rell, a Republican, has taken a different approach on the immigration issue than her state’s two U.S. Senators.
Yesterday, she vetoed a bill, passed by both houses of Connecticut’s legislature, but not by override margins, that would have given in-state tuition rates for the state’s public colleges and universities to illegal alien residents of the state.
This writer always wonders why those that propose this measure do not want to seem to grant in-state tuition rates for their state’s public colleges and universities to American citizens from other states.

– Rolf Harris, in “Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport”
Sydney, Australia - They are deployed around the world, from Iraq and Afghanistan to the South Pacific, but in an unprecedented move Australian soldiers are being sent this week into their own backyard.
Troops are to be stationed across the Outback as the Australian government launches a massive crackdown on the alcoholism, sexual assault, and social dysfunction that a recent federal investigation alleges are tearing apart Aboriginal communities.
Shocked by the findings of an official report released earlier this month, the government of Prime Minister John Howard has decided to ban alcohol, confiscate pornography, and make welfare payments conditional on good parenting in more than 60 isolated Aboriginal townships.
This is yet another example of the “Our Diversity Is Our Strength” canard being an empty promise.
The racial diversity in Australia is not just indigenous Abos. Recent arrivals from the Orient, the Arab world and Africa have diversified Australia’s major cities, and in the case of the latter two, driven crime rates up. Arabic is now Sydney’s second most prominent language, behind only English, and ahead of Cantonese and Mandarin. Why PM John Howard has not sent troops into the western suburbs of Sydney is a mystery.
Center for New Community Has Links to Violent Far Left-Wing Extremists June 26, 2007

The Center for New Community, a Chicago-based SPLC-style organization that, like the SPLC and the ADL, has raised a lot of money peddling fear of supposed right-wing extremist conspiracies, is now the one embroiled in a scandal about its clear and present links to left-wing violent extremists.
Last week, the CNC released a report, highlighting what it feels are the ten most offensive quotes of pro-American immigration groups and individuals. Its #10 listing has a footnote citation to the website of the Los Angeles Independent Media Center. “Independent Media Center” means anarchist, and where there are anarchists, there is violence.
These links between small time leftist money hustlers and the fringe, sometimes violent elements of the extreme left are troubling.
St. Louis City Hall Orders Anti-Eminent Domain Abuse Mural to be Removed June 26, 2007

This painted mural is on the south-facing side of the four-family flat on 1806-8 South 13th Street, in the Soulard Neighborhood. It faces the I-44/I-55 junction, and can be seen easily by the many vehicles per day that uses that interchange, and by cars on Gravois and Tucker, which are heavily traveled city boulevards in the area.
Today, a planning and zoning committee attached to St. Louis City Hall, the Land Clearance Redevelopment Authority, ordered to mural removed. Lawyers for MEDAC (Missouri Eminent Domain Abuse Coalition) promise to take the matter to court to keep the mural up.
It is very likely the the case that this is the same LCRA that allowed homeowners on Loughborough Avenue and South Grand Avenue south of Carondelet Park to be run out of their houses in order to create the Loughborough Commons Strip Mall. Therefore, this commission might not like this mural for its message, not for its size.

Conservatives opposed to the Iraq War in 2002 and 2003 warned about this.
In February, the US agreed to accept 7,000 Iraqi refugees this year, a large jump over the fewer than 700 Iraqis accepted by the US in the first three years of the war but a drop in the ocean when measured against the estimated 2 million Iraqis who have fled the country since the war began. About 2,000 of those Iraqis coming this year, say refugee officials, will start their lives anew in Michigan.
Ohio’s Democrat Governor, Ted Strickland, opposes this resettlement plan. Luckily for him, the first wave will be living closer to Michigan’s Governor than Ohio’s.
Cloture Passes, 64 to 35 June 26, 2007
Posted by Webmaster in Campaign 2008, Immigration, Politics.comments closed
Names and their votes here. The bill will probably pass the Senate, and a few of the 64 that voted to end debate will vote against the bill, in an attempt to fool you. But don’t be fooled — their vote for cloture is effectively a vote for the bill and its soft amnesty. Without cloture, the bill would have never gotten to the floor for a passing vote. If Trent Lott votes against the bill at the final vote, and tries to use that excuse that his yes vote on cloture was a “procedural matter,” then his excuseology there would be particularly egregious, because he, as the Senate Minority Whip, twisted arms to get the cloture measure passed.
The battle now moves to the House. Pelosi has already said that she’ll sit on it unless she can get 90 Republicans to support it, which is not likely, but don’t leave anything to chance. Start writing and calling.

President Bush Makes Freudian Slip June 26, 2007
Posted by Webmaster in Immigration, Politics.comments closed
President Bush has admitted that his non-amnesty “comprehensive immigration reform” is indeed amnesty.
ABC News’ Rick Klein reports: President Bush has spent a whole lot of time in recent months claiming that the immigration bill isn’t “amnesty.”
But in describing the measure Tuesday morning, an apparent slip of the tongue suggested otherwise — providing fodder for the talk-radio crowd that loathes the bill and wants it defeated in the Senate.
“You know, I’ve heard all the rhetoric — you’ve heard it, too — about how this is amnesty. Amnesty means that you’ve got to pay a price for having been here illegally, and this bill does that,” Bush said, according to the official White House transcript.
This just might get the attention of Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh — and it’s terrible timing for the president, with a key vote in the Senate Tuesday afternoon.
Tony Snow is claiming that President Bush misspoke, which happens quite often. But it is an excuse that does not wash, because anything entitled “comprehensive immigration reform” supported by Sens. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) and John McCain (R-AZ) is going to have the net effect of amnesty, even if that rose isn’t called a rose.
Britons Keenly Aware of Draconian British Hate Speech Laws June 26, 2007
Posted by Webmaster in Censorship, England, Britain and the UK.comments closed
Only one-third of respondents in a new survey of British adults believe free speech exists in their country, and only one in five believe that they can safely voice their opinion on a sensitive issue.
That minority that answered those questions in the affirmative are probably left-wing or non-white Britons, who are rarely persecuted and prosecuted for “hate speech.” They have free speech, by and large.
The poll by YouGov, an Internet market research firm, was conducted on behalf of www.friction.tv, a video-based forum for political debate.
While 98 percent of respondents said they believed in the right to free speech, only half said they had ever spoken out on a sensitive issue.
“We supposedly live in a truly democratic society where freedom of speech is a fundamental right enjoyed by everyone,” friction.tv Chief Marketing Officer Andy West said in a press release. “However these survey results have shown rather powerfully that most adults in the U.K. feel that this is not the case.”
West added, “We live in such a politically correct society that people don’t know what they can and can’t say anymore and there is a constant fear that if you go against the grain, you’ll be vilified by your peers.”
This article does not exactly make this clear, but the odious thing about the British situation is that they actually legislate against “hate speech.”
Browning of Europe Forces U.S. D.H.S. to Require Biometric Fingerprints For Citizens of E.U. Countries Visiting U.S.A. June 25, 2007
Posted by Webmaster in Europe, Terrorism.comments closed
AP:
BRUSSELS, Belgium - Visitors from European nations traveling with visas or visa-free to the United States will soon have to give 10 digital fingerprints when entering the country, a senior U.S. Homeland Security official said Monday.
Border checks could also soon include other biometric data, such as facial and eye retina scans, as the U.S. upgrades security at its ports, airports and border crossings, said P.T. Wright, the operations director for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s US-VISIT Program.
All people from European nations and others participating in the U.S. Visa-Waiver program would have to give additional prints, as would people traveling from nations where visas are needed, he said.
Many European Union countries are becoming more and more non-white, and the most likely and visible minority in EU countries are Arab/Muslims. Remember, many of the details of the 9/11 attacks were plotted in Germany.
It’s not as if Hans from Germany, Frederico from Spain, Giovanni from Italy, Jean-Pierre from France, or Bjorn from Norway are so worrisome to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that they are the reason for this new biometric fingerprinting requirement. A better solution would be to require the fingerprints from certain kinds of people, but racial profiling was apparently not considered here, and would be resisted mightily if it were.
Ironically, the American government is putting pressure on the EU to admit Turkey and Albania as members. If there was no good reason for this fingerprinting rule before, there would be after this would happen.
Also what could be at play here is an increasing rivalry between the Anglo-American power structure and the emerging Continental European, i.e. European Union, i.e. Franco-Germanic, establishment.
