Iran declares “Year of Economic Jihad”

“I call this year the ‘Year of Economic Jihad’ and I expect the officials of the country and also our dear nation to work in a jihadi way in the economic areas.” -Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei

The Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei, announced on March 21 (the beginning of the new year in the Iranian calendar) a year of Economic Jihad.  This is the year 1390 under the Iranian calendar system.

His reasoning for declaring an Economic Jihad is the continued efforts by the “West” to place more economic sanctions against Iran.  

Florida Church leader lied, Burned Quran anyway

Last year a christian leader in Florida backed off the burning of a Quran.  Even General Petraeus was against it.

Last week the same Florida christian leader, and his followers, burned the Quran anyway.  He feels justified in that they held a 15 minute trial, and found the Quran “guilty”.

The christian leader lied about the burning, because, according to a 2010 Voice of America report, he said the Quran would “never” be burned at his church.

More proof Libya war is about oil, ‘Peaceful’ Rebels targeting oil towns

President Obama, Prime Minister Cameron, President Sarkozy all say the military action against Libya is about protecting peaceful civilians. It interesting that those peaceful civilians are attacking OIL towns.

That’s right, those peaceful rebels are not trying to implement regime change, they’re trying to take over all the oil towns.

Here’s a list of the cities ‘peaceful’ rebels have taken, or are attacking: Ajdabiya, Ras Lanuf, As Sidra, Benghazi, Brega and Misratah.  All these cities are connected to the oil industry in some way.

In Egypt, and Tunis, truly peaceful protesters focused their efforts in their country’s capitols. They wanted to be in the face of their unresponsive governments. Yet, almost from the start, what is happening in Libya is armed rebels attacking oil fields and oil cities. This is an all out military action, NOT peaceful protest!

In the last week of February China began evacuating their oil field workers from Libya, because they were being attacked by armed “gangs”.  These gangs deliberately destroyed all the Chinese equipment. These are not ‘peaceful’ protesters.

Rebel leaders, and Libyan arms dealers working in Egypt, have admitted that from early on they were being armed by the West.  President Obama, where are the peaceful Libyan protesters?

Reports now say Japan tsunami was more than 20 meters high

NHK reporting that after analysis of the range of destruction by the March 11 tsunami, plus the fact that most 10 meter tall sea walls failed,  the tsunami must have been more than 20 meters high.

Here in the U.S. that’s 65.5 feet.  To help understand how high that is, the average wooden telephone pole sticks out of the ground 30-40 feet high.  So the tsunami was as high as two wooden telephone poles.

Europeans surround EU Parliament, demanding to know where their taxes went to

Recently in Brussels, Belgium, the EU parliament was surrounded by about 20,000 protesters. They wanted to know where the taxes they paid went to.

“This money was made to be used for social security. It was meant to be used for social health, not to help the banks.”-Serge Monsieur, protester

Governments across Europe are dealing with what they claim is no money for their budgets. Europeans pay outrageously high taxes. Just look at their sales tax, in some countries it’s more than 20%! And now more war, this time against Libya.

Protesters say in the past few years they’ve seen the social programs, that they thought their taxes were going to, being slashed and burned.  Jobs keep disappearing. Yet, there seems to be plenty of money for bank bailouts, government bailouts and war.

Isn’t that happening here in the United States? Wake up people!
