Does POTUS Prepare for "Brown Shirt" Martial Law?

A combined operation under his single command of the Military and Homeland Security and National Guard forces for dealing with internal problems or terror activities will provide Obama with an ability to declare martial law and rule by decree.


National Guard forces , which function under State Governors can suddenly all be "Federalized" in an instant. That is if the select Governors Committee Obama formed very early on - TO REPRESENT ALL GOVERNORS - fails to usurp enough power from their colleagues to pass on to him without that executive order.

Arab world starting to overthrow its tyrannies?

Is the Arab world finally starting to overthrow its autocratic rulers? What will the consequences be if it does? We may start to get answers to those questions very soon. There have been mass demonstrations and riots this week over food prices in Algeria, and especially in Tunisia. I have some video from Tunisia that you might be interested in watching. Unlike Iran a year and a half ago.

A Look into Your Future

This may be presumptuous of me, but living in the Middle East for 26 years has given me a head start on most of you. There have been 26 violations of my 30 human rights defined by the UN 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Due process is a dim memory. I appeared before 29 corrupt judges while I lost 35 cases.Beginning in the High Court I worked my way down to the Small Claims Courts and then all the way back up with equal frustration. What the civil judges did to my family rivaled what the religious ones did as they finished us off.
The individual confronts a system so inured to evil nobody within it is able to consider an alternative. The citizen surrenders his soul and the hard cases flee into exile. The state employs thousands of spooks to list them and their whereabouts.
Freedom and justice are minority poses.

Farid Ghadry on Massive Israel Rally in Rome

As I mentioned earlier, there's a massive rally for Israel in Rome on Thursday. Syrian dissident Farid Ghadry plans to attend. Here's why.

There are two reasons why I am making this trip. First and foremost, i truly believe Israel is a blessing to the region. Imagine how despotic the Middle East would be without her. Instead of 22 Arab tyrannies, we would have 23. Instead of Nobel Prize winners, we would have more suicide bombers, instead of learning from a western culture right next door to us, we would embed further an Islamic culture gone astray, etc..

The second reason has to do with Baschar al-Assad. If he hates Israel, then all Syrians have the duty to support Israel. The Assad family has literally destroyed Syria with their violence, oppression, and corruption. If we oppose Assad's policies against Syria, then we should also oppose him in his foreign policy. The enlightened Syrians fully grasp his double-take and his mystic ways when it comes to Israel.

Sounds like that rally is going to be a lot of fun. If you're going, please send me some pictures.

Weakened Iran Regime Resorts to Hanging Dissidents

Meanwhile, the Islamic regime in Iran, at odds how to stop the movements against them, including from various splinters of opposing clerics, has resorted to executions to drive fear into the hearts of the opposition. They executed FOURTEEN "dissidents" today. And declared that they have another two dozen in line to be hanged shortly.

Interestingly, fear and suppression have failed to cow the dissent which has to also deal with leaders like Moussavi, Karroubi, Hatami and Rafsanjani putting out statements supporting the Islamic regime but attacking the Khamenei administration, if effect weakening and diluting the focus of demonstrations, who want a regime change but find their leaders falling short in this respect.
