Geopolitics: Turkey tilts its hand another card, and the Marxists rack up the points: Links 2 on July 1 – 2015

1. Turkey: Turkish Armed Forces increase presence on Syrian border

2. Will the New York Times Show This Painting of Mohammed Made Out of Condoms?

The Milwaukee Art Museum acquired a “painting” of the previous pope made out of Condoms donated by a gay rights activist. The same media outlets that refused to run the Mohammed cartoons to avoid offending religious sensibilities are gleefully running photos of a picture of the Pope made out of condoms and defending it.

3. Is it possible that the whole gay marriage issue had nothing to do with (already existing) rights for homosexuals, but in fact was a deconstructionist act to destroy traditional marriage for reasons of cultural Marxism? Oh and here is a report on the general state of health of straight marriage. Could there be a connection?

4. More on the pillorying of Tim Hunt, the Nobel prize winner who is now in the dog house with Michael Richards of Seinfeld.

5. Staten Island Teenagers Participate In Anti-Semitic Assault

The Anti-Defamation League is alarmed and horrified by the assault on a Jewish man, wearing a yarmulke, in Staten Island this past week. Three teenagers allegedly threw a rock at the man, yelling out anti-Jewish slurs. To make matters worse, the three young individuals also threatened to kill the man.

“If the reports are accurate, this incident is terribly disturbing because it was clearly motivated by anti-Semitic animus, and particularly troubling due to the young age of the assailants,” the ADL New York regional director, Evan R. Bernstein said, according to the Algemeiner.

One of the three, Kareem Cook…

6. Britain First does great propaganda video!

(Anyone want to bet that “Islam is the religion of peace” Cameron will ban the English flag if this gets more popular?)

7. Iran Threatens to Go Nuclear If Talks Fail

(Why would they make the deal when the sanctions are already gone?)

VIENNA—Iranian President Hassan Rouhani hinted this week that Iran would decide to fully pursue its nuclear program in a way “harsher than what they [the United States can] imagine” if Western powers fail to uphold any nuclear agreement expected to be finalized in the coming days.

Rouhani’s comments come as negotiators in Vienna struggle to solve disagreements over a range of issues concerning the future of Tehran’s nuclear program. The ongoing disputes prevented the sides from finalizing the agreement before a self-imposed June 30 deadline.

Talks are now expected to continue through July 9.

8. Islamist militants in Sinai rely on sophisticated networks of support, military experts say

Major General Hisham El-Halaby who teaches at the National Defence College of the Nasser Military academy- told Ahram Online that the initial number of militants who attacked the army in North Sinai earlier in the day was around 70.

“Those 70 who attacked the forces in Sheikh Zuweid represented the first wave of attackers. The total number of attackers throughout the day might exceed 300 elements or even more. This is a new technique that the militants have been using in their operations,” El-Halaby explained.

However, El-Halaby says that there were gaps in the military’s preparedness, which were capitalised on by the militants who receive instructions from foreign intelligence agencies.

10. Ten arrested in Italian-Albanian anti-terror swoop

Ten people, including Italians, Albanians and a Canadian suspected of supporting ISIL were arrested on Wednesday in an operation in Italy and Albania, Italian police said.

The 10 were detained in three Italian cities and an unnamed location in Albania, a statement said, adding that some were suspected of helping Italians  to reach Syria to fight for ISIL.

They included four Italians, five Albanians and one Canadian.

They were suspected of violating Italian anti-terrorism laws, including one that prohibits organising trips to support foreign terrorist groups.

11. Normally I don’t post songs etc. But its Canada day, and these guys are great and if i was a gamblin’ man, I would bet that they were not Marxists!

Happy Dominion Day my fellow countrymen. Stephen Harper is right. We need to praise our lucky stars we live here.
