~ “I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts.” Ronald Reagan.
For far too long, America’s enemies have shown their appreciation by abusing and working against U. S. interests and that of their neighbors while at the same time taking in billions of U.S. dollars courtesy of the failed policies of previous administrations.
Enter President Donald J. Trump who has pulled back the military aid to Pakistan and how does this terrorist state respond? As expected.
“The United States has foolishly given Pakistan more than $33 billion dollars in aid over the last 15 years, and they have given us nothing but lies & deceit,” Trump tweeted on January 1. “They give safe haven to the terrorists we hunt in Afghanistan, with little help. No more!”
It quickly became clear that Trump’s tweet was more than an idle threat. On Thursday the State Department announced that the US was freezing most military aid to Pakistan. The administration has declined to specify the exact amount of funds it will cut off, but the suspension likely will freeze up to $1.3 billion in aid.

US Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley held a press conference today at the UN Security Council on North Korea, Pakistan and the anti-Iranian government protests.
Haley took a few questions after her speech.
At approximately 7:52 of video, Haley keeps her composure as a Palestinian journalist who wore his disdain for her on his sleeve all but accused Haley/the USA of being on the wrong side of history and a double standard in the USA’s stance on Iran vs. aid to “the Palestinian people.”
Haley standing firm responded in typical Haley fashion after which she takes one final question, this one on North Korea.
The woman is a class act and if my mother were here today, she would say of Ambassador Nikki Haley, “that woman does not take any tea for the fever.”
Muslims in Pakistan murdered a seven year old toddler, his infant brother, and their grandmother, for the sake of ‘blasphemy’ law. The victims were Ahmadis, a sect that believes in a prophet after Muhammad. They are considered to be non-Muslims and are deemed worthy of death.
The attack was explained by a police officer:
‘Later, a crowd of 150 people came to the police station demanding the registration of a blasphemy case against the accused… As police were negotiating with the crowd, another mob attacked and started burning the houses of Ahmadis.’
Salim ud Din, a spokesman for the Ahmadi community, said
‘Police were there but just watching the burning. They didn’t do anything to stop the mob… First they looted their homes and shops and then they burnt the homes.’
According to Mr. Saleem-ud Din, the Ahmadiyya community representative in Pakistan, the fire truck responding to to the fire were turned back by the mob and the local police was keeping away all help from the burning structures.
A large contingent of police was unwilling to stop the violent mob and multiple houses were on fire as of the last reports.
‘Pakistanis celebrate end of Ramadan by burning down Ahmadi houses,’ said Imarn Jattala, chief editor of Ahmadiyya Times, in a social media post.
Dr. Basharat Nazir, national spokesperson for the Ahmadiyya Muslim community in the UK, stated through his private Twitter account that the ultimate fault for the anti-Ahmadiyya crimes rest with the government of Pakistan….
‘Reporters like Asad Kharal of Express Tribune made a liberal use of the word ‘clashes’ and insinuated that Ahmadis started it when they attacked some individuals who have come to protest about blasphemous materials posted on Facebook,’ the source further added.
Kamal went on to say that 7 Ahmadis who were injured, suffered so because they decided to “lock up themselves in their houses.”
Tahir Imran, a BBC New Media Journalist & Social Media Producer for @BBCUrdu, reported that first Gujranwalla police DSP, Malik Afzal, “blatantly lied” that there were no attacks on Ahmadis at all….
KARACHI, Pakistan—The Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for attacking Karachi’s Jinnah International Airport, which left at least 28 people dead, saying it was seeking revenge for recent Pakistani military airstrikes against them.
Militants exchanged gunfire with security forces at the airport for at least six hours late Sunday into early Monday….
The assault, which began at 10:20 p.m. local time, focused on the airport’s relatively less heavily guarded Terminal One, which is used for cargo and VIP flights. Two cargo bays appeared to have been destroyed, witnesses said.
Seemi Jamali, a spokeswoman for Karachi’s Jinnah hospital, where the dead and injured were brought, said 18 airport employees and security personnel were killed by the attackers. In addition, 24 were injured, she said. Security officials said that 10 militants were also killed—seven were shot dead, and three blew themselves up with suicide vests.
Shards of glass from the broken windshields of cars lay on the road outside the blood-splattered side entrance to Terminal One….
Tehreek-e-Taliban (TTP) has claimed responsibility for the attack on Jinnah International Airport, adding that the attack was revenge for the assassination of Hakimullah Mehsud pursuant to Pakistan TTP spokesperson Shahidullah Shahid (center).
MIRANSHAH: The banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) on Monday claimed responsibility for an attack on Karachi airport in revenge for their late leader Hakimullah Mehsud, who was killed in a US drone strike in November.
‘We carried out the attack on Karachi airport to avenge the death of Hakimullah Mehsud,’ Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) spokesman Shahidullah Shahid told, while dismissing the Pakistani government´s recent offer of peace talks as a ‘tool of war’.
He also promised more attacks in the future. ‘Pakistan used peace talks as a tool of war, it killed hundreds of innocent tribal women and children. This is our first attack to avenge the death of Hakimullah Mehsud,’ he said….
On May 31, a scandal-ridden Barack Obama announced the Taliban had released Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl after five years of captivity. His release follows negotiations in which the Obama administration agreed to trade five prisoners from Guantanamo Bay for Bergdahl.
Author Brad Thor tweeted a number of responses to this act of negotiating with terrorists, including his assessment that Americans are now vulnerable because terrorists see they can get what they want from the Obama administration….
Anybody want to bet that new @PressSec will blame being new to job to avoid having to answer hard questions re: Taliban prisoner give-away? — Brad Thor (@BradThor) June 1, 2014
Taliban exchanged for #Bergdahl deemed in 2008 ‘high risk’ for launching attacks on American interests if released. http://t.co/ukG2pfU2JD
Were the Taliban prisoners just a fig leaf? If #Obama Admin paid any $$ for #Bergdahl release, then they directly funded a terrorist network — Brad Thor (@BradThor) June 1, 2014
As pointed out in one of Thor’s tweets, in 2008, the Taliban had been officially ordained “high risk,” what has changed since then???
Below are other tweets by Thor that further questions the release of Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl and rightfully so when one takes into consideration that Bergdahl decision to go AWOL was premeditated, his release occurs at a time when Barack Obama is viewed as weak, engulfed in the VA scandal that leaves at least 40 veterans dead and the fact that Obama’s popularity is at an all-time low. Distraction anyone?
#Bergdahl before walking off his base and being captured: “The horror that is america is disgusting.” http://t.co/bXGFhyk4Yo
What you see in the #Bergdahl release is a stage-managed, low-scale win that will substitute for #Obama foreign policy achievmnt going 4ward — Brad Thor (@BradThor) May 31, 2014
Considering this young man’s views about his country and the war at the hour of his desertion, his capture and duration of his captivity, while I am pleased that his family is getting their son back, what are the chances that this soldier may have been radicalized?
Merely exercising my right to free speech and free thought, I pray not, for the sake of his parents and the nation.
As for Barack the Weak’s decision to negotiate with terrorists will soon come back to bite all of us.

All of the above, in addition to Obama the Weak and Lawless, once again, going over the heads of Congress, i.e., the prisoners swap.
In spite of reports across the globe that Al Qaeda is expanding, Barack Obama at the behest of fellow Muslims in Pakistan, will once again declare that Al Qaeda has been decimated.
To compound the deceit, Obama will stop adding the names of Al Qaeda leaders to his assassination list and declare victory.
Who would have thought it could be so easy to rid ourselves of these blood thirsty barbarians….again, and again, and again.
If you want to ‘end the war’ against al Qaeda, one good way would be to declare that all of the global terror group’s leaders are dead, and declare victory. And this seems to be exactly what the Obama administration is doing. And pretty much doing it at the behest of our ‘friends’ in Pakistan….
Al Qaeda has been decimated to the extent jihadists are training young children to become the next wave of jihadists throughout the Middle East, Asia and Southeast Asia. (sarcasm)
Below is a graduation ceremony (not in English) of the graduation ceremony of Iraqi cub jihadists.
And clips of the week (below) really drives home the point that Al Qaeda is no longer a terrorist threat.
The American in me says that children are innocent. As a grandmother, it occurs to me that droning this kid could very well save us (thinking out loud) grief later on, i.e., considering this cub jihadist lasts that long.
No matter how many pens Barack Obama has in his possession, he cannot write the future; and about that victory dance he’s dying to do, spare the world, another dog and pony show.
