"The terrorists responsible for the attack in Brussels may have also been considering an assault on a nuclear power plant.

Dozens of Swedish Women Show Support for Islam By Taking Selfies in Hijab after Brussels Massacre

Dozens of Swedish Women Show Support for Islam By Taking Selfies in Hijab after Brussels Massacre - The Gateway Pundit:
Stockholm Syndrome

Swedish women are showing their support for Islam by taking selfies in hijabs after the Brussels bombings.

From the hijabuppropet website:

The violance against Muslim women has increased, and this is extremely worrying. Their basic rights are not being respected, their civil rights are being respected. And we need to put a stop to this. Being called names in the streets, getting their scarfs/hijabs ripped off their heads, and being slandered has become a daily routine for many muslim women.

We have set out to arrange this walk because we can not allow this behavior any longer in our society anymore. Come and show your support, at Friday the 26, 17:00

In stockholm, we will walk from Kulturhuset, sergelstorg (plattan) to the Mosque at Medborgarplatsen, this will be a silent demonstration!

WOW! 

Women have absolutely no rights under Islam and these braindead women are holding a rally in support of the barbarians.
Unreal..."

US Ambassador Makes Shock Prediction About FBI and Hillary... This Is GREAT News:

"The former ambassador then discussed the possibility of politics triumphing over the legalities of the situation.

“I think if that does happen, there’s a real risk for Obama and for the attorney general that the FBI will explode. And a lot of things that we don’t know about, that are not on the public record at the moment, will come on the public record,” he explained."

BBC Headline: ‘Teaching migrants how to behave’

BBC Headline: ‘Teaching migrants how to behave’ | Intellectual Takeout

While we’ve already noted that Norway is having to teach its Muslim migrants that it is not okay to rape women, it’s worth pointing out that Finland is also having to do the same. 
Thus, the BBC headline. 

As the BBC reports:

“Migrants arriving in Finland are being offered classes on Finnish values and how to behave towards women. Concerned about a rise in the number of sexual assaults in the country, the government wants to make sure that people from very conservative cultures know what to expect in their new home.”

By “conservative” the BBC means culturally Muslim. But it doesn’t really seem to want to say that. Nonetheless, the story itself reveals plenty about the cultural differences between Finland and the migrants now arriving on its shores from culturally Muslim countries.

“Johanna is one of those energetic, animated teachers whose cheerful energy lures even the most reluctant pupil into engaging with the lesson. She uses both her hands to stress her meaning and she always softens any difficult points with a smile.

‘So in Finland,’ she says softly, ‘you can't buy a wife. A woman will only be your wife if she wants to be - because here women are men's equals.’
‘But you can go out to the disco with a woman here,’ adds Johanna brightly. ‘Although remember, even if she dances with you very closely and is wearing a short skirt, that doesn't mean she wants to have sex with you.’

A Somali teenager pulls his woolly hat over his ears and cradles his head in his hands as if his brain can't cope with all this new information.

‘This is a very liberal country,’ he says incredulously. ‘We have a lot to learn. In my country if you make sexy with a woman you are killed!’ He turns to his neighbour, a Malian man of a similar age to gauge his reaction.

‘It's quite amazing,’ the Malian nods. ‘In my country a woman should not go out without her husband or brother.’”

Why is Finland spurred to host such educational sessions with its recent migrants?

“‘It's difficult to talk about,’ [Helsinki's deputy chief of police, Ilkka Koskimaki] admits as we drive in a patrol car through the icy streets of the city. ‘But we have to tell the truth. Usually we would not reveal the ethnic background of a suspect, but these incidents, where groups of young foreign men,’ as he puts it, ‘surround a girl in a public place and harass her have become a phenomenon.’”...

Even Mainstream Media Are Stunned At Obama's Strange Reaction To Brussels Terror Attacks

Even Mainstream Media Are Stunned At Obama's Strange Reaction To Brussels Terror Attacks:

"The was so perfunctory, so pro-forma, it was pathetic. And even the mainstream press corps noticed.

Apparently dazzled by his own legacy-making trip to Cuba on Tuesday, President Obama managed to pry less than a minute out of his speaking time to address the latest attacks by Islamic terrorists against Western civilians. The leader of the free world devoted a scant six sentences to the unspeakable horror that befell people in Brussels during the busy Tuesday morning commute, with the president pledging ultimate victory over an enemy he refuses to name."

Middle schooler arrested, charged with ‘battery’ for pinching classmate’s butt

Middle schooler arrested, charged with ‘battery’ for pinching classmate’s butt | EAGnews.org: "LONGWOOD, Fla. – A Florida 12-year-old was arrested and hauled to juvenile detention after she pinched a classmate’s butt at school.
Breana Evans now faces a charge of misdemeanor battery after the student’s mother urged prosecution, and the girl and her father think the whole ordeal is ridiculous, ABC 7 reports.
“It is just a joke,” Evans said. “I feel like it’s just stupid, just a stupid charge that shouldn’t have to happen.”
Evans told WFTV she was suspended from Milwee Middle School for playing a “game” March 15 that involved pinching other students, an act the school deemed “socially unacceptable.”
“I was by the officer and we just pinching random people, that’s it,” she said.
Evans’ student victim was not injured, and told officials he didn’t want Evans to face criminal charges.
But the next day the boy’s mother insisted that police charge Evans with a crime, and they did.
The teen was arrested, read her Miranda Rights, and hauled to a juvenile detention center, where she was fingerprinted and booked into the system. 
Evans’ father, Ray Evan, described the punishment as “extreme” and “crazy,” according to the news site.
“I can see her being suspended from school, I understand that, but as far as them coming to arrest her the next day, no, that’s not the American way,” Ray Evans said.
“Lord what has this world come to?” he told ABC 7.
“Kids can’t even be a kid.”...

A country at war with its citizens-----Speeders beware, law enforcement is cracking down

Speeders beware, law enforcement is cracking down | abc11.com:
"How fast can you go on the highway without getting the attention of police?
Anything under 10 miles per hour over the speed limit is okay, right?
Well, the North Carolina Department of Transportation is ready to burst the bubble on the widely believed 9 mph cushion myth.
The governor's highway safety program is ramping up what's being called "Obey the Sign or Pay the Fine" speeding enforcement crackdown.
Apparently, there's a belief out there that if the speed limit is 65, officers or troopers won't pull you over if you're doing 1 to 9 miles per hour over the limit - a so called buffer zone.
The DOT says that's not the case.
Law enforcement says beginning Thursday, they'll target and ticket anyone driving above the posted speed limit."

"Emory University president says students are scared and 'in pain' after someone wrote 'Trump 2016' in chalk on campus

• President Jim Wagner said students viewed graffiti as intimidating
• Officials arranged a meeting for those offended to address concerns
• University organizations also offered counselling to those affected

• Republican frontrunner won the Georgia primary earlier this month

The president of Emory University has spoken to demonstrators who said they were frightened after someone wrote 'Trump 2016' in chalk around campus.
Students at the Atlanta school, which has an enrollment of more than 14,000 claim their 'safe space' was violated when the messages appeared on sidewalks and buildings.
Jim Wagner, president of the Atlanta university, wrote Tuesday that the students viewed the messages as intimidation, and they voiced 'genuine concern and pain' as a result.
He acted after student government wrote to him and slammed the university's response, prompting a meeting that led to protests.
Now administrators want to track down those responsible for the controversial markings.
But some commentators on the university's student newspaper website told the students to grow up and accused them of being babies..."

Cruz’s Public Enemy No. 1 in Manhattan Is New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio | TheBlaze.com:

"MANHATTAN, N.Y. — Republican presidential contender Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas) harshly went after a New York City politician during a campaign event Wednesday — but it wasn’t fellow GOP hopeful Donald Trump.

Over the past 24 hours, Cruz and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio have excoriated one another in the wake of Tuesday’s Belgium terrorist attack that left more than 30 people dead and at least 270 others injured. Cruz’s call for the empowerment of law enforcement “to patrol and secure Muslim neighborhoods before they become radicalized” drew staunch consternation from de Blasio and other New York officials who have traded blows with the presidential hopeful since.

And during a New York City event Wednesday afternoon, Cruz did not hold back in repeatedly castigating the city’s mayor."

Remember the hereos-----National Medal of Honor Day

National Medal of Honor Day

The United States Congress has designated March 25th of each year as NATIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR DAY, a day dedicated to Medal of Honor recipients.   (Public Law 101-564)  Conceived in the State of Washington, this holiday should be one of our most revered.  Unfortunately all too many Americans are not even aware of its existence.

WHY MARCH 25th?
The date of March 25th was chosen to highlight this special day because it was on March 25 (1863) that the first Medals of Honor were presented...to six members of Andrews' Raiders.  If you haven't read the story you can follow the hyperlink below titled THE FIRST PRESENTATION to read about that historic day.

WHAT CAN YOU DO ABOUT IT?
National Medal of Honor day is celebrated in some communities, however for the most part the occasion comes and goes with little notice.  As a patriotic American there are a few things YOU can do to commemorate this day:

• FLY YOUR FLAG with pride and patriotism on this day.
• REMEMBER OUR HEROES.  As a gesture of your appreciation, why not take just a few moments in the week prior to National Medal of Honor Day to mail a "Thank You" card to one of our living Medal of Honor recipients.  You can find a list of the living as well as information on writing to them among the pages of this site.
• INFORM YOUR LOCAL MEDIA.  Most newspapers aren't even aware that this special day exists.  Why not tip your local media to the occasion.  Before you do, check out our database for Medal of Honor recipients from your city and state as well as any who might be buried in your city.   This information can give your media a "local angle" that can increase the probability that they will consider doing a story to remind Americans of our heroes.
• Consider doing something in your local schools, or even on a civic level, if there is a Medal of Honor recipient living near your location.  Visit our site on SCHOOL IDEAS for more information on school assemblies.
• If there is a Medal of Honor recipient buried in your home town, get a school class, scout troop, or other youth organization to "adopt a grave site".  You can read in our SCHOOL IDEAS pages how one school in Pueblo has used just such a program as a part of their Social Studies program.

"An anti-gun professor at the University of North Dakota says she dialed 911 in absolute “fear” when she spotted “two figures in camo with guns outside” her classroom window.

“My first thought is for my students’ and my safety: I grab my phone, crawl under my desk and call 911,” Heidi Czerwiec wrote in an op-ed for the Grand Forks Herald.

The professor said she could “barely talk” due to her overwhelming “fear,” but those feelings soon turned into “rage” when the 911 dispatcher informed her of the truth:"

New York City Bill to Call for Free Tampons in Public School Restrooms, Shelters and Jails

New York City Bill to Call for Free Tampons in Public School Restrooms, Shelters and Jails - The New York Times:
"New York City Council members are joining a growing national movement to improve access to feminine hygiene products, and on Tuesday will introduce proposals for free tampons and pads in city public school restrooms and homeless shelters, and easier access at correctional facilities.
“This has been so taboo for so long, that no one even thought about it,” said Councilwoman Julissa Ferreras-Copeland, who led local efforts with a pilot project providing free pads and tampons at a high school in Queens that is being expanded to include 25 schools.
“It’s just been something that it has never been O.K. to talk about.”
...The proposals by the council members are the latest in a series of efforts around the world that some supporters call “menstrual equity”...

Is Liberalism Killing the Manly Man?

Is Liberalism Killing the Manly Man? » Louder With Crowder:
"Is liberalism killing the real, masculine male? 

It seems that way. 

Keep in mind here, that when I say “man,” I’m not talking about the clichéd embodiment of false machismo who throws back macro-brews, chases skirts and scratches himself in public. 

By “real” I don’t mean someone who has to be tough, brawny or even rough around the edges.
I’m speaking about the ideal of manhood that young boys have upheld in their hearts and minds for generations. 

...In all seriousness, my father (like most fathers) always taught me that a man is someone who stands by his principles, someone who lives with integrity and puts his family before himself. 

That last one is important, because as a young boy, it’s your pops who provides you with security.
The financial, emotional, even physical security of the son rests squarely on the shoulders of his father. 

What could possibly be more manly than providing all of the above for your kin?
...Here’s the problem with the modern, liberal man — he can never fully provide that sense of security for his family, because he doesn’t believe that he can provide it for himself.
Liberals don’t believe in the ultimate concept of self-reliance, which is why they look to the government for stability. 

Extravagant welfare programs, the near impossibility of getting fired on the public dole and an increasingly complicated tax code are all products of the same deeply rooted concept that man cannot provide for himself..."

IRC to seed Montana with refugees (soon!) US State Dept. gives go ahead

David Miliband’s IRC to seed Montana with refugees (soon!) US State Dept. gives go ahead « Refugee Resettlement Watch:

The Mayor, city council and county commissioners of Missoula County Montana have given their blessing to the New York City-based International Rescue Committee headed by former British Foreign Secretary and globalist David Miliband (good friend of both George Soros and Hillary Clinton) to begin the colonization of Montana with third world refugees from the Middle East, Africa and Asia beginning in Missoula.

I have so much to say, where to begin?  

First, if you are a new reader, see all of my previous posts on Montana by clicking here. 

Remember the driver for these new offices (this article says Tallahassee, FL just got a new office) is that Obama has upped the number of refugees to be resettled this year from the recent 70,000 a year to 85,000 for FY2016 (runs from Oct. 1, 2015 to September 30, 2016) and frankly they are running out of ‘capacity’ in existing resettlement cities.
Cities are overloaded and experiencing problems with such things as inadequate housing and not enough jobs for refugees.  Tensions are building in overloaded cities and they are looking to get a foothold into fresh territory.
So, since we learn in this article that the approval for the resettlement was granted for this fiscal year, it should happen quickly, AND it also means that the International Rescue Committee (IRC) has already sent a R & P Abstract to the US State Department..." Read on!

Tomorrow's Civilizational Cringe Today :: SteynOnline:
"I regret having to begin every other paragraph with "As I wrote...", but the fact is this problem was in plain sight a decade ago - and all M Jambon and the rest of the European political class did was sit back and accelerate the rate of Islamization. As I wrote (last time, I promise) in my book America Alone:

In June 2006, a 54-year old Flemish train conductor called Guido Demoor got on the Number 23 bus in Antwerp to go to work. Six – what's that word again? – "youths" boarded the bus and commenced intimidating the other riders. There were some 40 passengers aboard. But the "youths" were youthful and the other passengers less so. Nonetheless, Mr Demoor asked the lads to cut it out and so they turned on him, thumping and kicking him. Of those 40 other passengers, none intervened to help the man under attack. Instead, at the next stop, 30 of the 40 scrammed, leaving Mr Demoor to be beaten to death. Three "youths" were arrested, and proved to be – quelle surprise! - of Moroccan origin. The ringleader escaped and, despite police assurances of complete confidentiality, of those 40 passengers only four came forward to speak to investigators. "You see what happens if you intervene," a fellow rail worker told the Belgian newspaper De Morgen. "If Guido had not opened his mouth he would still be alive."

No, he wouldn't. He would be as dead as those 40 passengers are, as the Belgian state is, keeping his head down, trying not to make eye contact, cowering behind his newspaper in the corner seat and hoping just to be left alone. What future in "their" country do Mr Demoor's two children have? 

...Of the ethnic Belgian population, some 17 per cent are under 18 years old. Of the country's Turkish and Moroccan population, 35 per cent are under 18 years old. The "youths" get ever more numerous, the non-youths get older..."
