Taliban leader in secret talks was impostor: "It's not him, and we gave him a lot of money"

Honestly, you couldn’t make it up.

Taliban leader in secret talks was impostor: “It’s not him, and we gave him a lot of money”

Note the exceptionally high level of competence of Western intelligence officials. An incident like this is on par with the keenness of their analysis of Islam and jihad.

War Is Deceit Update: “Taliban Leader in Secret Talks Was an Impostor,” by Dexter Filkins and Carlotta Gall for the New York Times, November 22 (thanks to JW):

KABUL, Afghanistan — For months, the secret talks unfolding between Taliban and Afghan leaders to end the war appeared to be showing promise, if only because of the appearance of a certain insurgent leader at one end of the table: Mullah Akhtar Muhammad Mansour, one of the most senior commanders in the Taliban movement.But now, it turns out, Mr. Mansour was apparently not Mr. Mansour at all. In an episode that could have been lifted from a spy novel, United States and Afghan officials now say the Afghan man was an impostor, and high-level discussions conducted with the assistance of NATO appear to have achieved little.

“It’s not him,” said a Western diplomat in Kabul intimately involved in the discussions. “And we gave him a lot of money.”

American officials confirmed Monday that they had given up hope that the Afghan was Mr. Mansour, or even a member of the Taliban leadership. […]

Others suspect that the fake Taliban leader, whose identity is not known, may have been dispatched by the Pakistani intelligence service, known by its initials, the ISI. Elements within the ISI have long played a “double-game” in Afghanistan, reassuring United States officials that they are pursuing the Taliban while at the same time providing support for the insurgents….

The man in charge: Europol Director Rob Wainwright, a Welsh-speaking former British civil servant

The full extent of the police and criminal prosecution powers that the European Union has over British citizens can be revealed today.

A Mail on Sunday investigation has uncovered an alarming array of new EU controls over justice and home affairs for which no one has voted, and most are unknown to the public.

These include:

  • Europol, the £60 million-a-year European criminal intelligence agency, whose officers have diplomatic immunity.
  • An 800-strong paramilitary police force called the European Gendarmerie Force.
  • The European Arrest Warrant, which now allows British citizens to be seized in the UK and sent without appeal to foreign jails for months or years without bail while awaiting trial.

Europol now has more than 650 officials at its headquarters in The Hague, from where it directs investigations across Europe.

When its Euro police officers are operating in the UK they have diplomatic immunity and cannot be touched by the British judiciary.

Europol’s director is Rob Wainwright, 43, a Welsh-speaking former British civil servant who joined Europol last year. He and his officials will move into a new £8.5 million building next year.

Cologne Cathedral Attacked

Thanks to PI

“A mentally disturbed man”  firebombed the altar of the cathedral. Guards could extinguish the fire and prevent further damage. “The man” has been arrested. More attacks like in Carcassonne & Avignon should be expected, especially when the soldiers of allah get their new supremacist mosque which will dominate the skyline of Cologne.

In German:

Geistig Verwirrter™ verübt Brandanschlag im Dom

Ein 29-jähriger Mann hat am frühen Mittwochmorgen einen Brandsatz auf den Altar des Kölner Doms geworfen. Der geistig Verwirrte™, so der Kölner Express, sei in die Kathedrale gestürmt sein und habe eine Flasche mit brennbarem Inhalt in Richtung des Altars geworfen, woraufhin Holzteile Feuer fingen. Die Aufseher im Dom konnten den Brand allerdings schnell löschen und den Täter festhalten. [mehr]

Hijab Jihad, Grievance Jihad, Litigation Jihad

Associated Press

“Revert” was asked to remove hijab at skating rink, sez she was “shocked”- so the Islamic grievance machine goes in top gear. Of course, if she had caused an accident (like here) she and her backers would have sued as well. Either which way we lose. Wanna bet that the skating ring backs off once the “racist-bigot-Islamophobic” accusations fly?

Woman Says Vernon Skating Rink’s Policy Discriminates Against Muslims

VERNON, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut woman says a roller rink’s request that she either remove or cover her traditional Muslim head scarf was discriminatory.

“We couldn’t enter the facility because we had our scarves on,” said Rodriguez-Colon, who has worn the scarf, or hijab, for 16 years.

(Nothing “traditional” to see here. Just in-your-face Islamic supremacy. Islam tops your kafir laws, back off, infidel!)

Entitlement Jihad; Compo for Gitmo Terrorists

A Bonus Bonanza for Enemy Combatants

Rewarding jihadis with British taxpayers’ money is not just an embarrassment. It is how democracies perish.

Britain’s war against radical Islam must be the first war in human history in which a country pays its enemies better than its own troops. If you fight the Taliban and al Qaeda in Afghanistan as a British soldier, you can expect to earn about £17,000. But if you are a U.K. citizen, or even a foreigner whose asylum request has been rejected, and train with Britain’s enemies, you can make your fortune courtesy of the new U.K. Bank of Jihad.

Prime Minister David Cameron’s government said last week that it was going to spend millions of pounds to compensate 16 terror suspects who were imprisoned by the U.S. in Guantanamo. All claim they were tortured or abused by the Americans and their allies. Their lawyers claim that by not preventing this, the U.K. government is complicit.

Terrific: Australia to boost funding to Islamic education

Helping Muslims to properly understand the meaning of “kill the unbelievers wherever you find them”- how good is that?

Source: SMH

On the face of it, the Australian Government becoming involved in the accreditation of Islamic schools in Indonesia sounds about as unlikely as Madonna giving dancing lessons to the Pope.

However it’s not as implausible as it sounds, and it is about to happen as part of a new partnership agreement that aims to foster development in Indonesia and promote a strong and binding relationship with Australia.

The partnership will focus on a $500 million education program to be managed by AusAid that will see Australian experts involved in school construction, school and district management and Islamic school accreditation.

AusAid has called for tenders from qualified parties to oversee and monitor the program, which will include the building of around 2000 new junior secondary schools, and direct support to 1500 private Islamic schools to reach accreditation against national education standards.

Abu Bakr Bashir will take care of the rest….

Whoopi Goldberg Doesn’t Believe Japanese Attacked Pearl Harbor, Thinks Muslims More Persecuted Than Jews


By: Noel Sheppard

Whoopi Goldberg on Tuesday demonstrated an absolutely staggering ignorance concerning a variety of subjects.

Appearing on Fox News’s “O’Reilly Factor,” Goldberg admitted not knowing what a madrasa is, said it wasn’t the Japanese that attacked America at Pearl Harbor, and claimed Muslims in America are more persecuted than Jews (video follows with transcript and commentary):

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: No.

O’REILLY: OK.

GOLDBERG: I think we have a terrorist problem.

Hussein Obama's Army of Gropers

Feel safe? This little boy has been strip-searched for your protection

This video has already gone around the world and back, but it is worth posting here to emphasize that this whole absurd TSA controversy has come about because of the government’s refusal to admit the nature of the threat. If the TSA, and the DHS, and the State Department, and all the rest of them, acknowledged the reality of the Islamic jihad against the U.S. instead of ignoring and denying it, it would be possible to formulate some sensible screening policies. That is the easy solution to this problem, and one that will never be adopted.

As I wrote here, the TSA wastes “huge amounts of time, money, and resources by pretending that everyone is an equal threat to launch a terror attack — Baptist grandmothers in wheelchairs just as much as young Pakistani Muslim males. The only answer at this point, and even it is not perfect, would be to institute Israeli-style profiling of air passengers. The Israelis have run an efficient and terror-attack-free air service for years, without all these invasive security measures. But to emulate them, of course, would mean to recognize in an official way that Muslims are a greater risk to commit terror attacks than Methodists or Mennonites. And in today’s politically correct environment, the Obama Administration and the TSA would rather see another jihad mass-murder of American citizens on the scale of 9/11 or worse than do anything to suggest that.”

Huckabee Slams ‘Unconstitutional Strip Searches’

Newsmax

Fox News host Mike Huckabee slammed President Barack Obama’s defense of the Transportation Security Administration’s new intrusive pat-down screening measures at airport security checkpoints. On his website Monday, the former governor of Arkansas and potential 2012 GOP presidential candidate wrote that he disagreed with Obama’s assessment that “there isn’t a choice about the federal fondling and groping of the private parts of totally law-abiding citizens by government agents.”

Huckabee, scanners, Obama, airport, security

Huckabee issued a challenge to Obama to submit his family to the same “humiliating and unconstitutional electronic strip searches by machines that are making its manufacturers filthy rich and the flying public hopping mad.” He wrote: “If you don’t find anything wrong with these practices that presume the guilt of an American before he or she proves innocence, then I ask you to take your wife, your two daughters, and your mother-in-law to Reagan National Airport and have them go through the full body scanner, and then be subjected to the same and full body grabbing grope by the government agents that you authorized to do it. Do it in public where all can see.

“When you do that,” Huckabee added, “maybe some of the rest of us won’t be as angry as watching our wives, daughters, and mothers humiliated and degraded like criminals just in order to fly on a plane.”

Kosher Tyson

From the New York Post:

Mike Tyson is in talks with businessman Moshe Malamud to launch a high-end restaurant chain, a source said. The two talked shop at Malamud’s favorite kosher eatery, Solo, on Madison Avenue, where Tyson dined with his pregnant wife, Lakiha Spicer, on mushroom soup and mixed vegetables. Tyson, who announced his decision to follow a strict vegan diet last spring, is said to have interest in breaking into the kosher-food business. “They discussed the concept as well as the name, but nothing was finalized,” a rep for Solo said. Tyson’s rep had no comment.

Which reminds me, what is the blessing one makes before taking a bite of a human ear?

Tyson converted to Islam when he was in prison for raping Miss Black Rhode Island in 1991 and he went on a pilgrimage to Mecca earlier this year. So he already has the a built in clientele from the large the Islamic wife-beating rapist cannibal glatt-kosher population.

North Korea Attacks, Obama Regime Blames Israel

The UN urges ”restraint on both sides”.

North Korea attacks

Hussein Obama “outraged”- blames Israel:

Obama continues on his relentlessly anti-Israel, pro-jihad course. “Obama’s UN Officials Silent on Nine Anti-Israel Resolutions,” by Chana Ya’ar for Israel National News, November 22 (thanks to Weasel Zippers) via JW:

The United Nations Human Rights Council this month adopted nine resolutions against Israel. The United States opposed nothing….Other UNHRC members responded with a verbal assault against the Israeli diplomat, which was also not stopped by the Obama administration representative.

“There is no other terrorism on the surface of the planet like the terrorism committed by Israel,” claimed the Syrian delegate. “This entity was established on the basis of terrorism.”…

Yep. Lets destroy Israel and the global Jihad will -magically- disappear. Right?
