…was in charge of Iraqi airspace in 1981?

Answer: Either George Bush would have been fighting a Nuclear Iraq ten years later OR

Saddam would be in power and in charge of Kuwait (and maybe Saudi Arabia) as we speak.

And that is the Best case Scenario!

Exit question: If Carter had won in 1980 and retained Brzezinski would the same result as above have taken place even without airspace control? In fact would we be talking about the upcoming 20th anniversary of the fall of the berlin wall? Inquiring minds like Rush Limbaugh honorary lizzardoid want to know!

(Sorry Mika I know it’s your dad but that’s just the way it is.)

There was some snark in comments concerning Charles Johnson, not to be unexpected. I answered with a comment that I think is worth repeating:

What I think is most important about him is that as a 9/11 conservative he is exactly the kind of person we want supporting the troops, opposing Radical Islam and backing Israel. It is the person who would normally be liberal on social issues that needed to be convinced.

30 Years ago he would be a “Scoop Jackson” democrat. Regardless of if you think he is right or wrong about Stacy McCain (I suspect he is wrong and it’s my nature to take a man’s word on a subject.) It is much more important to the country and the world to have as many liberals with us in the fight that matters.

“The fight that matters” of course being the fight against Radical Islam.

In terms of the Tea Party stuff as someone who has attended one I have a simple suggestion: Charles is like myself a Computer guy, computer guys are If/Then guys by nature.

As I’ve mentioned I don’t know Charles personally but I understand Stephen Green does. That being the case the solution is pretty easy.

Although the DC tea party was the largest it is certainly not going to be the last. I would suggest that Steven invite Charles as his guest to the next one he is attending. Let him meet the people there. If he see’s what I saw I think his mind might change, but he will have to actually see it.

I can’t see him refusing. After all it would for Charles be the change to personally affirm what he has stated.

Hey it’s worth a shot.

A fatal police mistake?

It looks like the police might be questioning this story that we posted on a few days ago

Now it is the job of police to be suspicious but lets consider:

The Islamic scholar and ex-Muslim Ibn Warraq explains that all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence teach this: “Under Muslim law, the male apostate must be put to death, as long as he is an adult, and in full possession of his faculties….According to Hanafis and Shia, a woman is imprisoned until she repents and adopts Islam once more, but according to the influential Ibn Hanbal, and the Malikis and Shafiites, she is also put to death.”

My normal instinct is to give parents the benefit of the doubt, it’s a tough call, after all a parent can’t lose his parental rights due to his religion, that is a dangerous slope, but with the long history of honor killings and the fact that she is not a citizen the danger that they will leave or send the daughter away is large.

Will the publicaty prevent any violent action from the family? I don’t know. I still say time is the big thing here. This is the US legal system. If it gets strung out till the girl turns 18 under a year away then it will all be moot. If I was her lawyer that would be my plan.

Exit question: Let’s assume that she is returned to her parents. Would an attempt to leave the country with her be probable cause?

17 year old Rifqa Bary ran away from her family in Ohio in fear for her life:

Rifqa Bary pleaded with a DCF case worker to let her stay with Pastor Blake Lorenz from the Global Revolution Church. The 17-year-old girl from Ohio claims her father has threatened to kill her because she has converted to Christianity and rejected her family’s Muslim faith.

“They have to kill me, because I’m a Christian, it’s an honor. If they love me more than God then they have to kill me,” she said.

Her father has gone to Florida to try to get custody back:

Mohamed Bary came to Florida to try and bring his daughter back home and denied the allegations.

“Did you threaten to kill your daughter because she converted to Christianity?” Nguyen asked.

“No, no,” responded Mohamed Bary.

However, Rifqa Bary insists that’s not the case.

“This is not just threats this is reality. This is truth,” she said.

In one year of course this will all be moot when she turns 18. But I can’t see where she would get such a crazy idea about Islam.
