			<outline text="UNIVERSAL BACKGROUND CHECKS for ALL firearms purchases'--whether at gun shows and shops, between individuals and online'--is Jewry's latest plan to strip the Gentiles of their Second Amendment rights.In other words, gun buyers will soon be peeing into cups all across America."/>

			<outline text="Launching Jewry's totalitarian scheme is Jewish Senator Chuck Schumer who announced his Marxist scheme on Meet The Press this past Sunday."/>

			<outline text="Boasting of his authorship of universal background checks, Schumer predicted that in the ''next week or two'' lawmakers would show ''broad support'' for his legislation."/>

			<outline text="Teaming up with Schumer is yet another Jew who hates our freedoms, billionaire Michael Rubens Bloomberg, Mayor of NYC."/>

			<outline text="With Bloomberg at his side, Schumer announced that his new legislation, the Fix Gun Checks Act, would mandate that all those purchasing guns, including transactions through private sellers, would be subject to a background check, effectively closing the so-called gun show loophole."/>

			<outline text="Schumer's Jewish-inspired legislation would also slap harsh penalties on States that fail to comply with his background check system: a 25% cut in Federal funds."/>

			<outline text="A COMMUNIST MANIFESTO, the Denying Firearms And Explosives Act, sponsored by a slew of Jews: Lautenberg, Feinstein, Levin, Schumer and Boxer, grants the Attorney General to prohibit citizens from owning firearms by placing selected names on a ''Watch List'' with no explanation for the denial of their Second Amendment rights."/>

			<outline text="Yet another draconian law, (sponsored by the same Constitution-Hating Jews), the Gun Show Background Check Act, targets Gun Shows and its attendees."/>

			<outline text="This piece of Jewish legislation provides regulation and inspection of Gun Shows by Federal agents and a two-year prison sentence for any Gun Show sponsor who fails to notify EVERY attendee of his 'responsibilities' under the Brady Law that criminalizes unlicensed gun buyers."/>

			<outline text="Not to be outdone by his synagogue buddies, Jewish Senator Frank Lautenberg on his first day back on Capitol Hill 2013 introduced his High-Capacity Magazine Ban that would ban ALL ammunition magazines holding more than 10 rounds."/>

			<outline text="Teaming up with (yes, ALL Jews) Feinstein, Blumenthal, Levin, 'Chuckie' Schumer and Boxer, Lautenberg resubmitted his Background Checks Act that requires background checks to be conducted on all purchases at Gun Shows, even sales by private parties."/>

			<outline text="Finally, Barbara Levy Boxer, (of course, a Jew), is after your hand guns with her sponsorship of the Concealed Firearms Permit Act."/>

			<outline text="Boxer's Marxist Bill would require every State issuing a Concealed Carry Permit to ''demonstrate good cause'' for requesting a Concealed Firearm Permit and to ''prove'' that the applicant is ''worthy of the public trust.''"/>

			<outline text="WHAT BOXER AND THE JEWS really mean is that THEY will decide who can buy a gun and who cannot."/>

			<outline text="And once dossiers on millions of gun owners are fully entered into a Federal Data Bank, the question is what will Jewry demand background checks for next?"/>

			<outline text="Membership in the NRA? Joining a Gun Club? Using a Shooting Range? Participating in a Protest March? Joining a Demonstration against our Jew-ridden government?"/>

			<outline text="Methinks it's time to buy defensive weapons NOW and prepare for their effective use."/>

			<outline text="Thu, 24 Jan 2013 02:04"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="By Paul Homewood"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="http://www1.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/cmb/images/us/2012/ann/Prelim_Significant_Weather_US2012.gif"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="According to NOAA, 2012 was the ''second most extreme year on record'' in the US. (The most extreme was 1998). They gleefully describe it thus:-"/>

			<outline text="2012 was a historic year for extreme weather that included drought, wildfires, hurricanes and storms; however, tornado activity was below average, according to an analysis released today by NOAA's National Climatic Data Center"/>

			<outline text="But just how extreme was it really? With global warming failing to materialise as planned, NOAA and others have been desperate to show that extreme weather is on the increase, and that mankind is responsible. In recent years, they have been running a ''US Climate Extremes Index'', and it is this index, shown below in Figure 1, that they have based their claims around."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Figure 1"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="So let's start by looking at how they define and measure extreme weather. The index is based on 6 different indicators:-"/>

			<outline text="Daily maximum temperature.Daily minimum temperature.The PDSI drought index.Extreme 1-day precipitation events.Days with/without rainfall.Landfalling tropical storms and hurricanes.(It is worth noting that tornadoes are not included, partly because of any meaningful data before around 1970. As last year was an extremely quiet one for tornadoes, their inclusion would have made a big difference to the index. This, however, did not stop NOAA putting ''TORNADOES'' on their map!)"/>

			<outline text="Now let's take a closer look at these indicators."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="1) Temperatures '' extremes in maximum temperatures, (and similarly with minimums) are defined as:-"/>

			<outline text="The sum of (a) percentage of the United States with maximum temperatures much below normal and (b) percentage of the United States with maximum temperatures much above normal."/>

			<outline text="This immediately creates a couple of problems."/>

			<outline text="a) According to this definition, mild winters would be classed as ''extreme'', which is clearly a nonsense."/>

			<outline text="b) What is ''normal''? For instance, an average of rainfall, based on the dustbowl years, would tell us that higher levels in later years were ''excessive''."/>

			<outline text="The index calculates ''normal'' on the full record back to 1910, but in what way was weather in 1910 any more normal than weather today? Indeed, if we took recent years as the ''normal'', most of the 20thC would look pretty extreme."/>

			<outline text="Most people would associate ''extreme weather'' with something undesirable and harmful. NOAA clearly understand this, hence their map at the top."/>

			<outline text="c) As both minimums and maximums are measured separately, it could be argued there is double counting here."/>

			<outline text="2) PDSI '' As this index is essentially based on a combination of rainfall and temperature data, it is utterly superfluous, as these are already factored in."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="3) Extreme daily rainfall '' again, rainfall is factored in under 5). In any event, the lack of recording stations in earlier years must make this an unreliable indicator."/>

			<outline text="4) Days with/without rainfall '' again, this is in comparison with a ''normal''."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="The graphs for each of the six indicators are shown below. It is interesting to note, that 2012 was only ''extreme'' on the two temperature indicators, and to a lesser extent on PDSI. (Remember, you can have severe moisture surplus, as well as drought!)"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="                                           Figures 2-7"/>

			<outline text="http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/extremes/cei/graph/6/01-12"/>

			<outline text="An Alternative Look"/>

			<outline text="We often hear today's climate described as ''post-normal'', but what was so normal about climate 50 or 100 years ago? The bottom line is that the climate of the last couple of decades or so is what we have all lived through, and adapted to. Bearing this fact in mind, and putting more emphasis on what most people would regard as extreme weather, I have come up with my own index, based on:-"/>

			<outline text="Cold temperatures in winter '' the colder it is, the more ''extreme''.Hot temperatures in summer '' the hotter it is, the more ''extreme''. (I appreciate Minnesota might like a warmer summer, but I have to draw the line somewhere!)Annual precipitation variation, compared with the 1981-2010 mean, (both higher and lower).Tropical storms/hurricanes, as calculated in NOAA's index.Rather than using the ''percent of area affected'' system that NOAA have adopted. I have chosen a ranking system. Each year since 1910 is given a ranking for each category, with ''1'' being the least extreme, and ''103'' most extreme. The four individual rankings are then averaged together, to give the overall ranking."/>

			<outline text="The results are shown in Figure 8."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Figure 8"/>

			<outline text="2012 finishes with a ranking of 54, making it an unremarkable 46th most extreme, out of 103. The individual rankings are:-"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="CategoryRankingWinter Mean Temperature3Summer Mean Temperature101Rainfall Variation89Hurricanes/Tropical Storms22 "/>

			<outline text="Under my ranking system, the worst years for extreme weather were:-"/>

			<outline text="YearComments19362nd coldest winter, as well as 4th hottest summer and drought.19335th worst for hurricanes, hot summer, dry.19104th coldest winter, driest year on record.19888th driest year, 9th hottest summer1955Cold winter, very dry, hurricanes.19187th coldest winter, dry "/>

			<outline text="My system does have one drawback '' based on national data, regional variations could be missed. For instance, a wet East Coast could cancel out a dry West Coast! However, I think it is fair to say, that in 2012 the warm and dry weather was pretty well distributed."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="It does not surprise me that NOAA are using methodology designed to support their agenda. But if you gave people the choice of today's climate, or 1936's, I suspect I know the answer you would get."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Footnote"/>

			<outline text="If you are wondering why 1934 did not appear in the top 6, it had a very mild winter."/>

			<outline text="Sec. 2.901 #Basis and purpose.# #(a) In order to carry out its responsibilities under the Communications Act and the various treaties and international regulations, and in order to promote efficient use of the radio spectrum, the Commission has developed technical standards for radio frequency equipment and parts or components thereof. The technical standards applicable to individual types of equipment are found in that part of the rules governing the service wherein the equipment is to be operated. In addition to the technical standards provided, the rules governing the service may require that such equipment be verified by the manufacturer or importer, be authorized under a Declaration of Conformity, or receive an equipment authorization from the Commission by one of the following procedures: certification or registration."/>

			<outline text="It is unlawful under Part 2 to market equipment that fails to comply with FCC regulations. #Thus, commercial manufacturers cannot sell their products in the United States until or unless those products comply with whatever sections of Part 97 and Part 15 apply."/>

			<outline text="Sec. 2.803 #Marketing of radio frequency devices prior to equipment authorization.# #(a) Except as provided elsewhere in this section, no person shall sell or lease, or offer for sale or lease (including advertising for sale or lease), or import, ship, or distribute for the purpose of selling or leasing or offering for saleor lease, any radio frequency device unless:# #(1) In the case of a device subject to certification, such device has been authorized by the Commission in accordance with the rules in this chapter and is properly identified and labelled as required by Sec. 2.925 and other relevant sections in this chapter; or[b](2) In the case of a device that is not required to have a grant of equipment authorization issued by the Commission, but which must comply with the specified technical standards prior to use, such device also complies with all applicable administrative (including verification of the equipment or authorization under a Declaration of Conformity, where required), technical, labelling and identification requirements specified in this chapter."/>

			<outline text="All radio equipment must comply with applicable sections of Part 15. #Concerning equipment we might use (except external power amplifiers) #Part 15 requires FCC authorization for most (but not all) receivers covering the CB frequencies, receivers covering 30-960 MHz #and all radar detectors. This is why there is a &quot;Shall not cause interference &quot; label on many Amateur transceivers; the label does NOT apply to the transmitting part of the equipment, only to the receiver."/>

			<outline text="Part 97 contains the technical requirements for Amateur radio equipment. The technical requirements for external power amplifiers are also in Part 2 Sec. 2.815. #External power amplifers must be authorized by the FCCbut there is an exemption for Amateurs who construct or modify small numbers of their own amplifers, The limit is one of each type per year."/>

			<outline text="12:58 p.m. EST"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: All right, everybody. Happy Tuesday. I hope everybody enjoyed the long Inaugural/Martin Luther King weekend. I have nothing at the top. Let's go to what's on your minds."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can you start with --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Let's go with Keystone if you don't mind, just to get it out of the way. As you know, Nebraska has effectively given a nod to the proposed route. Do you guys have, now, a judgment on it?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, we did receive a letter from the Governor of Nebraska approving the route through the State of Nebraska. We will obviously take that letter and the Nebraska environmental report into consideration as we continue our federal review process. I think we said last year that we expected that this process was going to take us through the first quarter of 2013, so just to reiterate that we don't anticipate being able to conclude our own review before the end of the first quarter of this year."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you expect to have a decision by the end of the first quarter?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Beyond saying that we don't expect to be ready before the end of the first quarter, I think we need to let our folks continue to do the work that they're doing. Obviously, Nebraska's just finished. As I said, we have to take that work and crunch it into our own work."/>

			<outline text="Okay."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. So you're not ruling out that it could slide into the second quarter?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, let's just stick with where I am right now, that we certainly don't see it before the end of the first quarter."/>

			<outline text="Okay."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And does this change the timeline in any way? Does this make it more complicated to make a decision?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, we were waiting for Nebraska to make its decision. Our processes move in parallel. We've been doing our own work. But had Nebraska changed the route or done something else, that certainly would have been complicating. I think we obviously want to take the Nebraska environmental study, we want to compare it with the work that we've done, so '' but I think we are still where we said we were, which was that we don't anticipate concluding before the end of the first quarter."/>

			<outline text="Okay."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Victoria, on this, can you just tell a little bit '' I think you did by saying they go in parallel. But could you see where your efforts converge with the state's efforts, so us, the foreign journalists, can understand it?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, as you know, we had to do a new review of the environmental impact of this in light of some of the comments that we received, so we took the first review that we had done; we are expanding it, looking at it. The State of Nebraska has itself done an environmental impact study, so that can inform the updating of our federal one now. And that is a necessary part of this interagency process that the State Department leads on behalf of the President before a license can be issued."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But does yours supersede or overrule the state's?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, obviously, if the state had been opposed to this or unwilling to see it proceed, that would have had an effect on our process, but given that the state has now given it a green light, we're operating within that more positive parameter."/>

			<outline text="Jill."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Could I change the subject --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: -- to Benghazi? Secretary will be testifying tomorrow, both with the Senate and the House."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Correct."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can you tell us '' many people, a number of people on the Hill say that there are still questions. One person I spoke with, a senator, said that he believed that there were not '' that all of the documents have not been released. They believe there are emails and texts that still have to be released."/>

			<outline text="Just on that immediate point, have all of the documents that they have requested been released? What '' do you know what he's talking about?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I haven't seen those comments from that member. Tomorrow, both on the Senate side and on the House side, members of Congress will have a chance to hear what the Secretary has to say, but also to ask her any remaining questions that they have on this matter. I think she will focus not only on the ARB report, but on all the work that the Department has done already to implement the ARB report and give a status on that and an update on the work that remains. You will recall that she pledged not only to accept all 29 of the recommendations, but to have the implementation of those recommendations well underway before her successor took over. So I think she'll want to give a status on that."/>

			<outline text="With regard to documents, as you know, Jill, since this initially happened, we have been responding on a regular basis to document requests from members of Congress, making those documents available to members and staff. I can't speak to what this particular member may be looking for."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And how would you say '' over the past week or two since she's gotten better, how has she been preparing for Benghazi?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, she's obviously been receiving briefings on the implementation work underway. She's been overseeing that work. She's been pushing it along. She has to obviously prepare statements for both testimonies tomorrow, and she's had a chance to talk to a lot of the people in the Department who've been working '' who are working on this during the time that she was out, get caught up, and push it forward herself."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: (Off-mike.)"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Can I go to Jennifer?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Sure, sure."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Thank you. Congressman Jason Chaffetz has said that he hasn't '' that he has requested many times to interview some of the survivors and that the State Department has not allowed him to do so, has kept some of the survivors from talking to members of Congress. And then there are some of the survivors themselves who said that they '' including members of the Diplomatic Security Service who were present that night, who say that they weren't interviewed by Admiral Mullen and Thomas Pickering as part of the ARB report. Do you have any comment about that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, again, members of Congress, including these members, will have a chance to raise issues of concern when they see the Secretary tomorrow. I don't want to do the hearing in advance of doing the hearing here. But clearly, as evidenced by the folks who were up on the Hill from Diplomatic Security in those initial hearings way back when in October, some members of Diplomatic Security were made available. I really can't speak to the scope of it from here today."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: (Off-mike.)"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Why did '' you have often noted that Secretary Clinton took responsibility, and she did so, I believe, some weeks after the event itself. Why did she not come out immediately, or within a day or two or five, and say, ''This was my responsibility''?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I think if you go back and look at every single statement that she made, from the statement that very first night to the public statement that she made the day after, to her comments at the remains return ceremony for Ambassador Stevens and our other three fallen colleagues, there was no question at any point in those statements that she considered it her responsibility to learn the lessons from this and to take the Department forward in implementing whatever lessons were learned."/>

			<outline text="So, and then obviously, she said the words in a slightly crisper way a little bit forward, but from the perspective of all of us who have served under her, we have always considered that she took full responsibility."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Did she use '' I don't believe she used the word ''responsible'' or ''responsibility,'' though, did she?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm not in a position to parse every statement that she made."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah, but you just cited all of her statements immediately afterwards, and you said if you read those, you will see that it's very clear that '' and I'm just wondering, because words matter; words matter in this building. And it was, I think, a month '' more than a month, in fact, I think it was October the 15th '' it may be that she felt responsible and felt that her statements reflected that initially and throughout, as you suggested, before she actually seems to have said the words. But I don't recall her using those words in the initial statements or at any time prior to her interview with Elise."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, that is not to say that she didn't at every single stage feel enormously responsible. It was just a matter of the immediate issues that needed responding to, like condoling the families and everybody else."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can you just provide us an update of how many people in the end were fired for any mistakes or based on their recommendations from the Benghazi report?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I don't want to do all aspects of this testimony before we do the testimony, but just to remind that we had four '' a total of four individuals put on administrative leave as a result of the implementation of the ARB recommendations, one of whom, Eric Boswell, who was Assistant Secretary of Diplomatic Security, who resigned from that position."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But they're all four still working for the State Department, right?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: They are all on administrative leave from their positions in the State Department."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And there's --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But they '' sorry, just to put it in simple English, they no longer are in those positions, but they still work in the building?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: They are in administrative leave status. I don't have the sort of letter of each of their --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I don't know what that means. I've never been on administrative '' I mean, what is that in simple English? They work here?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Does that mean that they're still getting paid, but they're not doing work?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm going to take it. I actually don't know what the precise details of it are."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Toria, is the testimony expected to be over and done with tomorrow, or is it likely to drag on? And how will that impact the confirmation hearing for Senator Kerry?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: What the Secretary will do tomorrow is be available to Congress, first and foremost, to update them on the implementation of the ARB's recommendations, but also to answer any questions they have of her. Then, as she'll make clear tomorrow, all of the recommendations are currently being implemented, but there will be plenty of implementation work that needs to be carried forward by her successor."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I would imagine that the Secretary will also be asked about the state of the investigation by the FBI, and I can't imagine that she will send the senators to the FBI for their answers. So would you be able to let us know what she can '' what she will be able to tell the congressmen and women about where we are with the investigation into catching anybody who might be responsible for this '' for these events?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I'm not in a position to preview what she'll have to say on that, but I'm sure one of the things that she will say is that the FBI is mandated under U.S. law to be the investigating agency. This Department is not the investigating agency. So I think she will obviously decline to speak about another agency's investigation, but we will leave it to her. I frankly haven't been privy to whatever coordination has been going on there."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And is the anticipation perhaps that with the hearings tomorrow, this may now draw a line under this incident, and that the Department can move on with the implementation of the recommendations that is going forward?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I think I just answered that one in response to Said, that she will want to make clear the implementation that is set in train, the lessons that we are learning, but that implementation needs to be seen all the way through by her successor."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Algeria?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Your statement yesterday said that you are hoping for a fuller accounting from the Algerians on how the attack took place, who was responsible, et cetera. Do you have that fuller accounting, and can you provide us any information?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, let me just start by saying that my colleague Jay Carney at the White House had extensive comments about an hour ago on where we are with the Algerians."/>

			<outline text="But just to repeat some of the things that he said there that we've been saying all the way through this: First and foremost, we have to underscore that the blame for this tragedy rests with the terrorists who carried it out; that we condemn this terrorist action in the strongest possible terms. We recognize that the Government of Algeria was dealing with a ruthless terrorist operation '' people, as we said on Friday, who have no respect for human life. We, in our communications with the Algerians, as the Secretary made clear on both Thursday and Friday, urged them at every turn to do what they could in this difficult situation to protect the lives of the innocent."/>

			<outline text="We are moving forward, working with the Algerians, to get a fuller understanding of exactly what took place, how the terrorists were able to seize control of the facility, the decisions that the Algerians made in the context of the '' dealing with this brutal attack. And we've also offered to be helpful in the investigation. Obviously, as the FBI's already made clear, they have an open investigation into the matter, and they will conduct that in coordination with Algerian officials and other relevant partners."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Just a couple points of clarification: You refer to the terrorists '' you don't say AQIM at this point? Or are you not sure who was responsible?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, AQIM, as you know, has claimed responsibility for the attack. We are obviously, as I said, in consultations with the Government of Algeria to try to gain a fuller understanding of what took place, of who they deem to be responsible for this. But we don't have any reason to doubt AQIM's involvement in this attack."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And on the assistance, can you tell us what types of assistance you provided the Algerians in this operation? Were there U.S. personnel on the scene? Were '' I don't know. Please, let us know."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Apart from saying that we offered assistance to the Government of Algeria, I think I'm not going to get into the details. If they want to talk about that, then I'm sure that they will."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: You said (inaudible) '' whether they accepted or denied assistance is '' you'll leave open?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, obviously there was information sharing and other things. Beyond that, I'm not going to get into details."/>

			<outline text="Jill."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: One of the biggest criticisms is that there allegedly was not enough information or contradictory information coming from the Algerians. Does the State Department believe that, that there was not enough?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: You mean as the attack was --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: As the attack was underway, that '' even the President's statements seemed to kind of get into that. But especially '' officials that we were speaking to obviously said that they were not getting enough information or it was contradictory. Is that correct?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I think you know that the Secretary spoke to Prime Minister Sellal every single day, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, endeavoring to keep a channel of communication open at that level. We said here and the White House also said that we had open channels of communication among our terrorism experts all the way through."/>

			<outline text="These are very difficult, awful, tragic circumstances when these happen. I think the Secretary spoke to the fact that the facility was some thousand miles from Algiers, very remote. So one of the things that we have to understand better is how much information the Government of Algeria had at various different stages as this was going forward. It was obviously a complex attack, very difficult. There was '' it was very fluid, and the folks on the ground were having to make very, very difficult calls. So we '' as part of our ongoing conversation with the Government of Algeria, part of it will be to try to understand what was known when and by whom."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Victoria, Moktar Belmoktar --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Could you tell us about how you got your nationals out of the country once you knew they were safe? Did the '' did you send a plane in to evacuate them? What were the mechanics of that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't think I'm going to get into all the mechanics except to say that I think the Department of Defense has already confirmed that it was able to do some lifting of our personnel and other personnel out of the country at an appropriate moment, and also to take out the remains of our three fallen Americans. But I think I'm not going to get into chapter and verse here."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And we still have those five foreigners that the Algerians say are still missing. There's also unfortunately seven bodies that they haven't been able to identify. Can you confirm or let us know of any '' if you believe any American citizens are among those 12?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We don't have any reason to believe that we still have Americans unaccounted for. I think you saw our statement yesterday in which we confirmed that we had three American dead as a result of this terrorist attack, and we had seven Americans who we knew were able to survive the attack. Those are our numbers still as of today."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can I just ask you more direct '' sorry if I'm before '' were there any U.S. personnel at the scene in In Amenas or the immediate area at the time of the anti-terror operation?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Were '' did we have Americans physically on site --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- in the town?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Whether they were forces or providing any assistance or anything like that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have anything to share on that one way or the other, Brad."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Victoria."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Moktar Belmoktar, who apparently was running the operation from afar, is on the loose. He's in Mali. Do you know where '' his whereabouts?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have any information to share on that one either, Said."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Okay. By all accounts, the Algerians acted precipitously, recklessly, and almost dismissively of the lives of the hostages. Do you think this sets a very bad precedent for similar situations in the future?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, we're not, from here, going to be giving a value judgment about the way the Algerians dealt with this ruthless attack. I think Jay Carney said the same thing today, that the Algerians told us at the time, that the attackers intended to kill all of the hostages and to blow up the facility, which, as you know, was a gas plant. It would have been an enormous explosion which would have killed everybody. So obviously, the outcome could have been a whole lot more tragic than it ultimately was. That said, we are in touch with the Algerians to try to gain a fuller understanding of what took place, of the decisions that they made, so that we can all work together going forward against this kind of ruthless attack."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Change of subject?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Tell me who you are."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: On Greece '' Tom Ellis from Kathimerini, Greece. The Greek opposition leader will be in the building tomorrow, and I was wondering if you know who he's meeting with."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I understand he will meet with Deputy Assistant Secretary for European Affairs Eric Rubin. That's the only confirmed meeting that I have for him at the moment."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: (Off-mike.)"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Sorry, still on Algeria?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Apologies."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah. The U.S. had a big two cases in Benghazi and also Algeria at this time. So does the U.S. Government recognize their activity by the Islamic extremists is lower in that region?"/>

			<outline text="(Interruption.)"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Uh-oh. The set's falling apart here. I'm sorry. I didn't understand the end of your question. Can you say it again?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Sure. As the U.S. Government, do you recognize the activity by the Islamic extremists in that region is stable, not growing right now?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I would refer you to the comments that the Secretary made both on Thursday and on Friday. On Thursday when the Somali President was here and on Friday with Foreign Minister Kishida of Japan, she made clear that we have been concerned for a long time about the growing danger of radical extremism in this part of the world, about the connections across, which is why she was in Algeria in October, why we have the Global Counterterrorism Forum stood up, why we have counterterrorism training for some 10 governments across that region to try to strengthen their capacity, to try to improve border control, to help them to work together regionally. The countries in that region don't have a great history of collaborating between themselves and among themselves, whether it's on border, whether it's on intelligence sharing, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="So these are all issues that not only the United States but other members of the international community are going to have to intensify our efforts on. And she spoke to that quite clearly both on Thursday and Friday last week."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Stay in the region?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Still on Algeria?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: On Mali, Mali."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Still on Algeria?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: What you said now sounded like a threat by terrorists is a good excuse for authorities to act recklessly or --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm sorry, I didn't --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: You said that the terrorists were threatening to kill everyone and to blow up the facility there, so that the Algerians --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I said that I was not in a position here, based on what we know so far, or perhaps at all, to pass judgment on the precise decisions that Algerian security forces made at the time. We were making clear throughout that we expected and wanted them to place a premium on the protection of innocent life. The Secretary said that herself on Thursday, on Friday."/>

			<outline text="That said, this was an absolutely ruthless attack. They made clear to us that they believed that they were facing a situation where all hostages might be killed, where the plant might be blown up. So again, I'm not placing a value judgment one way or the other, except to say that the terrorists are the ones who bear responsibility for this instance, and all governments, those in the region, those in the international community, have to work together to learn the lessons from this one and to tighten our cooperation and collaboration."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: One more on Algeria?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you have any information on the cause of death for the three Americans who died?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think we mentioned that to respect the privacy of these individuals, we're not going to be getting into any more details, Brad."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Let me be sure. The Secretary had a meeting and a conversation with Prime Minister of Algeria every day, but she didn't get her information a lot delayed by the Algerian military forces beforehand, right?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm not going to get into any more details than we did last week about those conversations. They were designed to give us a real-time picture of the Algerian understanding of the situation on the ground, to convey our concerns and the information that we had about Americans, and to coordinate at that political level as best we could. But I'm not going to get into any further details of those conversations."/>

			<outline text="QUESTIONQUESTION: On Mali, we're reporting that AFRICOM '' that the United States has started airlifting troops and equipment into Mali, and that two flights have landed already. I wondered if you could update us on where you are with that situation."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: The Department of Defense has started airlifting French equipment into Mali. I will refer you to our brothers and sisters at the Department of Defense for details on that. I think we can also confirm that African forces are starting to flow into country. We have some 700, 800 African troops from Benin, Nigeria, Togo, Burkino Faso. We have some Senegalese en route already moving into country. The Government of Chad has also committed between 1,000 and 2,000, depending upon needs, and those forces are en route into country but haven't yet arrived."/>

			<outline text="This is further to the support that we have been offering both in terms of training, pre-deployment, sustainment, lift, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And the Secretary mentioned that the trainers, U.S. trainers, were ready to leave last weekend to the '' some of the ECOWAS countries."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Right."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Did that take place?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: It did. I think I spoke to this on Friday. I gave a list of the countries that we were deploying to to help with pre-deployment, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: And some of the experts that we've been talking to are telling us that because the deployment from Chad is quite a large number, between 1,000 to 2,000 troops, as you mentioned --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Right."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: -- it'll be '' could make up a third, if not more, of the final force. There's some suggestion coming from experts abroad that this is because the United States has actually pushed Chad to be quite a substantial partner in this force given the training that the Americans have given to Chadian forces. Would that be a correct assessment of the situation?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I think you know that we have been pushing all of the ECOWAS countries for more than a month now to look at what they could do in terms of available forces, in terms of the kinds of capabilities that were required. Chad is a country that does have a relatively robust and well-trained set of forces. They also have interests to protect in the neighborhood. And we have been working with them to get them ready, so we are very grateful for the large size of this deployment and to all the other countries that are deploying."/>

			<outline text="Still on Mali?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can I go back to Benghazi?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Probably not. Anything else on Mali before we leave Mali?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah, maybe one more. Sorry. I've just been reading up on it this morning after a weekend off. The --"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Is that how you spend your weekends?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes. The head of the Malian forces is actually quite optimistic that they could take back Gao and Timbuktu within a month. Is that an assessment that the United States would share?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't think I'm prepared to make a military assessment standing here. I obviously would refer you to the French and to the ECOWAS countries that are actually deploying now. We do understand today, though, that a combination of Malian and French forces have been able to liberate Diabaly and also Douentza, so they are making some progress. I think it'll be important, obviously, to be able to hold that territory, continue to make progress going forward."/>

			<outline text="Let's go back to Jennifer quickly on the understanding that I'm not going to be giving the Secretary's testimony for her from this --"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: That's fine. I just wanted to give you the chance to respond to this. It's our understanding that U.S. Marines who were part of the FAST team that was sent from Rota, Spain were asked to take off their military uniforms before they were sent into Tripoli, and I assume that that request came from the State Department for some sort of diplomatic reasons. I was just wondering why they were asked to. They were told to deplane and they had to change into civilian clothes. So was there a reason for that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have anything for you on that one way or the other. I'll refer you to the Pentagon on all that."/>

			<outline text="Scott."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Balkans?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Serbia's removal of that monument to Albanian fighters has led to the desecration of some Serbian cemeteries in Kosovo. Can you tell us where the United States is in trying to make this better?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I have to say that I did not have that one this morning. Obviously, the desecration of any cemetery anywhere is something that we would be very concerned about. But let me take that one, Scott, and we'll get back to you."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you have any comment on the Russian exodus from Syria?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah, it's interesting. We've obviously seen these press reports that a number of Russian citizens are now moving across the border into Lebanon and that the Russian Government either has or is considering evacuation flights for their citizens. I obviously refer you to the Russian Government for more information on that. But unfortunately, this is not surprising, and it speaks to the continued deterioration of the security situation and the violence that Assad is leading against his own people."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: But it doesn't to you, on the face of it, symbolize any changing of Russia's position or in their confidence, perhaps, in the Assad regime's ability to see this violence through?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I think if you look at the Russian public statements over the last month, they have been evolving somewhat in terms of the level of confidence in whether Assad was going to make it or whether Russia actually had an interest in that. But I'm going to send you to them for an evaluation of how they analyze the situation on the ground."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you have any information on some allegation that Assad's mother went to Dubai?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have anything on that."/>

			<outline text="Please. Still on Syria? Anything else on Syria?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah. Go ahead, Tova."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: A Turkish delegation is going to Turkey. I mean, the ''"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: The Turkish delegation is going to Turkey?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: U.S.A. '' American ''"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I mean, not the '' the U.S. delegation is going to Turkey to discuss some humanitarian aid issues. I'm wondering if the humanitarian aid will be the only dimension of this visit, or will they discuss other issues, too, with their Turkish counterparts?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: This particular visit '' as you know, Ambassador Ford was in Turkey for both humanitarian and political consultations about two weeks ago. This particular delegation is Ambassador Ford joined by Assistant Secretary from the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration Anne Richard, and USAID Assistant Administrator Nancy Lindborg. So they are primarily focused on the refugee situation. They'll be in both Turkey and Jordan, and as we said in our media note, they'll be looking to talk to those involved with refugee assistance from those governments, but also to talk to a broad cross-section of Syrians in both countries to assess the need, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: There was a body that you formed a couple of months ago. It was a kind of operational mechanism that you were working with Turks. I mean, what happened to this mechanism, and when was the last meeting that you held?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: You're talking about our bilateral consultation mechanism ''"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yes."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: -- that the Secretary and Foreign Minister Davutoglu set up in August."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: It has been meeting regularly. It was under that mechanism that Ambassador Ford had consultations two weeks ago."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So I was going on because the last time that Under Secretary Sinirlioglu, when was '' when he was in town?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, right. He was here as well, so the mechanism goes both ways. I think you could consider that the consultations he had here on Syria, which were with a broad cross-section of our agencies, also would fit under that rubric of trying to stay as tightly coordinated as we can on Syria."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Why only Turkey and Jordan? I mean, Lebanon, Iraq ''"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, we have made refugee visits, and both Nancy Lindborg and Anne Richard have, in the past, to those countries. I think in this case it is in Turkey and Jordan that we have the highest concentrations right now of Syrian refugees and where we have very difficult situations in the camps in terms of the cold winter, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I mean, in Lebanon now, the number is nearing 200,000, which is ''"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: And we are working intensively with the Government of Lebanon on these things. I'm sure that we will have officials in '' we've had officials in and out of Lebanon on these issues regularly as well."/>

			<outline text="Samir."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Are they planning to go to Kuwait to attend the UN donors conference for refugees?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We will be represented at the UN donors conference on refugees in Kuwait, which is at the end of the week. I'll have more for you on that tomorrow."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: So the delegation will go to Kuwait?"/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Not the same delegation?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I'll have more for you on precisely whom at the end '' probably tomorrow we'll have something."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Just as a follow-up, Toria."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Mm-hmm."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I talked to the Commissioner on Syria, the United Nations Refugees Commissioner, who is coordinating the Syria issue last weekend. He's expecting that refugees' numbers will be tripled in six months in Syria in all the '' including all the neighbors. For example, in Turkey, there are 160,000 right now, the refugees, the total refugees number, excluding the Syrians who are staying at Homs as unregistered, but in six months, this number will be reaching 350,000, something like that. Do you have any calculation in this problem?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I'm not going to speculate beyond saying this is why we need to all work together as an international community to hasten the day when this bloodshed ends and when we are turning the page and welcoming a transitional governing structure that can give Syria a better and different future. That's what we're all working with in the hopes that we don't get to the kind of numbers that you're talking about, Tova. The numbers we have are already bad enough."/>

			<outline text="Said."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: The Syrian Government is making allegations that a lot of artifacts have been stolen and taken across the border to Turkey. Are you aware of that situation? In fact, they're also accusing members of the opposition of dismantling factories and furniture and all kinds of things that are just being taken across the border. Are you aware of anything like this?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I think we are always concerned in situations like this, and we've seen it in other areas of conflict, whether it was in Afghanistan or in Iraq, that criminal elements, bad actors would take advantage of the chaos and of the violence to loot, to steal patrimony that belongs to all the people of the country, to spirit it across borders, and anybody involved in the conflict could conceivably be guilty of that, including members of the regime themselves. So obviously, this is part and parcel of our message to all of the Syrians that we talked to that in the context of defending themselves and working for a better day in Syria, that they also need to do what they can to protect the patrimony of the state, to protect the institutions of the state, so that when we get to the turning of the page and when Assad eventually goes, as he will, the Syrian people have lost as little as possible and don't have '' and that the great history and culture of the country has not been stripped from them."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: China?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Last Friday, Secretary Clinton sent a clear message against China about same type of issue. And right after that, spokesman of the Chinese Government criticized that comment strongly and then also invaded Japanese territorial water again and again. So how do you response this action and comment by the Chinese Government?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, the comments that the Secretary made on Friday when Foreign Minister Kishida was here reflected the longstanding U.S. position on this. Frankly, there was nothing new in the comments that she made. They were simply a reiteration of where we have been, starting with the fact that we don't see any solution to this problem unless and until Japan and China sit down and work it out through dialogue. So in that context, we are happy to see a high-level envoy from the Abe Administration being received in Beijing, and we hope that that is the start of a real process of dialogue between the countries."/>

			<outline text="Please."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Yeah. I'd like to follow up on that question. Apparently in this Xinhua commentary, they said Mrs. Clinton '' not referring directly to Mrs. Clinton, but saying U.S. officials were irresponsible concerning these islands and that the irresponsible remarks would worsen rather than relieve tension on this issue. How does the State Department respond in such a comment?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I think I've just responded in saying that the Secretary was simply reiterating the longstanding position of the United States on this situation, a position that we've made clear to both governments, and rather than pointing their concern at us, the Chinese ought to be working with the Government of Japan to try to resolve these issues through dialogue."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you have any contact with Chinese Government after her comment?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, obviously we have contact through our Embassy. We have contact through Assistant Secretary Campbell. As you know, he was recently there. I guess he wasn't there on this last trip, but he's in regular contact. We had Cui Tiankai here just the week before."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can I ask about Ukraine?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Please. Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Has the Secretary sent a letter to the opposition leader, Yulia Tymoshenko, and if so, could you tell us what's in it?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I don't have any information about a letter to Mrs. Tymoshenko[1]. We've obviously been advocating and expressing our concern about her case for some time. The Secretary's spoken about it publicly almost a year ago at the Vercunda conference, you'll remember the Munich security conference, and all the way since. We continue to urge the Government of Ukraine to adhere to the rule of law for all of its citizens, to release Mrs. Tymoshenko, not to engage in selective prosecution, et cetera."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: There's a report out that's saying that her party '' Tymoshenko's party has released a copy of the letter which the Secretary's pledging her support and saying she's following the case very closely."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'll look into that. I don't have any information about a new letter. Maybe it's something that she had sent a while back."/>

			<outline text="Scott."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Can I '' same case. Her lawyer has expressed concerns that he feels he's about to be arrested on charges of robbery and something else relating to a divorce case several years ago. Do you express concerns to the government about that?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I'm aware that there is some ferment there with regard to his divorce case, but I don't have any detail, whether it's related to that or whether it might be something else. As a general matter, we are concerned about selective prosecution and we make that point clearly to the Ukrainians."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: It's his case that he believes this is politically motivated. Do you share that view?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Again, I'm not in a position to evaluate that here. The Ukrainians claim it's something to do with this divorce. I, frankly, don't have a way to evaluate that."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I have a different subject."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Do you have any reaction to the UN Special Rapporteur's announcement, the Special Rapporteur on Counterterrorism, saying he wants to investigate drone strikes and their impact on civilians?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, beyond saying that we don't talk about intelligence in this format or any format that's unclassified, I don't."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Well, I'm not asking you to talk about individual strikes. They occur and we know they occur. Do you think that's a good way for the United Nations to be spending its time, investigating things you don't like to talk about?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: I hadn't seen those comments, so let me catch up with them and see if I have anything to share on it."/>

			<outline text="Okay. One more? Yeah."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Ban Ki-moon yesterday called for an arms embargo on Syria. Would it be something you'd be ready to consider on all parties in Syria?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: We've talked about this in the past and we've never been able to get international agreement on it. Obviously, if it's something that UN Secretary General thinks we ought to look at again, we're obviously prepared to talk about it."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Could I just '' Israel?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: The problem would obviously be enforcement by '' on countries like Iran and others who are aiding and abetting the Assad regime."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: I'm sorry. I know you've been speaking a long time now."/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Go ahead."/>

			<outline text="QUESTION: Today the Israelis are voting for a new government, and with all the polls showing a likelihood that Prime Minister Netanyahu will be returned '' his alliance. And I wondered, there's some members of his alliance who are privately '' and some more on the right wing who are openly questioning the whole idea of a two-state solution. What is the United States hopes going forward with this new Israeli Government on where we could be in the peace process?"/>

			<outline text="MS. NULAND: Well, I think on election day it's probably inappropriate for me to get into any details here while Israelis are voting. But we were very clear in comments that we made last week that we hope and expect that once the new government is formed, we'll be able to get back into the business of encouraging direct dialogue between Israelis and Palestinians because that's really the only way forward here."/>

			<outline text="All right? Thanks, everybody."/>

			<outline text="(h/t Scarce)The way the Republicans in Congress have been milking the Benghazi tragedy, which resulted in the death of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others, you'd think that there haven't been at least fifteen attacks on US consulates and embassies since 1979. You'd assume they haven't been justifying their own vociferous defense of bad intel resulted in the invasion and occupation of Iraq."/>

			<outline text="You'd think that, but you would be wrong."/>

			<outline text="Hillary Clinton, who frankly, has been far more patient with this kangaroo court than pretty much any other person in DC, finally had enough with Ron Johnson's ridiculously partisan framing of the intel on the Benghazi attacks that the attack was spurred by the anti-Islam YouTube movie, &quot;The Innocence of Muslims&quot;."/>

			<outline text="&quot;With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans,&quot; Clinton responded, raising her voice at Johnson, who continued to interrupt her. &quot;Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk last night who decided to kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Clinton continued, defending the State Department's efforts in the wake of the assault."/>

			<outline text="&quot;Honestly, I will do my best to answer your questions about this, but the fact is people were trying their best in real time to get to the best information,&quot; she said, before blasting the senator's line of questioning. &quot;Give me a break, Senator Johnson. This whole thing is the biggest fairy tale I've ever seen.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Why on earth would your librul media not want to investigate how outgoing Treasury Secretary Tim &quot;Turbo Tax&quot; Geithner was accused of leaking inside information to Wall Street --by the Richmond Fed president? I can't imagine, because it does seem like a story to those of us outside the Beltway bubble. Maybe the complicit ladies and gentlemen of the corporate media could get up off their knees and, you know, actually cover this story? Maybe earn those paychecks for doing something other than parroting the conventional wisdom of the elite?"/>

			<outline text="Columbia Journalism Review's Ryan Chittum, about the 2007 Federal Reserve transcripts released last week:"/>

			<outline text="Of all the majors, Reuters does the best, and it advances the story by getting Lacker to stand by his 2007 comments about Geithner and to expand them to include other banks beyond BofA:"/>

			<outline text="''My understanding was that (New York Fed) President Geithner had discussed a reduction in the discount rate with these banks in connection with these initiatives.''"/>

			<outline text="But Reuters still falls well short of telling the whole story here. It doesn't take the obvious next step and look at what happened in markets that day."/>

			<outline text="For that we turn to'... Zero Hedge, which appears to have been the first to spot the Geithner-Lacker exchange last Friday:"/>

			<outline text="What makes this much more interesting, as Zero Hedge notices, is that the Lacker-Geithner spat came at about 6:15 p.m. on August 16, four hours after stocks had jumped a stunning 4 percent in the span of sixty minutes."/>

			<outline text="Many shorts ended up being carted out of the front door that day, unsure what has just happened. Sure enough, the next day at 8:00 am the Fed did what it had decided the previously it would do, and announce the 50 bps cut to the discount rate to fed funds rate spread'..."/>

			<outline text="'...the S&amp;amp;P futures moved from a low of 1320 (and 1330 at the 2:00 pm moment that the market saw a mysterious ''invisible hand'' pushing it higher), all the way to well over 1410 the next day: an unprecedented 90 ES point move in a few hours!"/>

			<outline text="The Times headline called it a &quot;tiff&quot; and stuck the story deep inside. Chittum notes, &quot;The Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, and Bloomberg haven't even touched the story.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="Gee. I wonder why. As Zero Hedge's &quot;Tyler Durden&quot; says, &quot;If he leaked one, he leaked them all.&quot; From the transcript:"/>

			<outline text="MR. LACKER. If I could just follow up on that, Mr. Chairman."/>

			<outline text="CHAIRMAN BERNANKE. Yes, go ahead."/>

			<outline text="MR. LACKER. Vice Chairman Geithner, did you say that [the banks] are unaware of what we're considering or what we might be doing with the discount rate?"/>

			<outline text="VICE CHAIRMAN GEITHNER. Yes."/>

			<outline text="MR. LACKER. Vice Chairman Geithner, I spoke with Ken Lewis, President and CEO of Bank of America, this afternoon, and he said that he appreciated what Tim Geithner was arranging by way of changes in the discount facility. So my information is different from that."/>

			<outline text="CHAIRMAN BERNANKE. Okay. Thank you. Go ahead, Vice Chairman Geithner."/>

			<outline text="VICE CHAIRMAN GEITHNER. Well, I cannot speak for Ken Lewis, but I think they have sought to see whether they could understand a little more clearly the scope of their rights and our current policy with respect to the window. The only thing I've done is to try to help them understand'--and I'm sure that's been true across the System'--what the scope of that is because these people generally don't use the window and they don't really understand in some sense what it's about."/>

			<outline text="Maybe Tim is telling the truth. But it sure is odd that so many people made so much money such a short time after he 'splained things!"/>

			<outline text="Mr. Glover's recent ignorance for Mr. Obama was fully on display in contriving the Second Amendment was created to advance slavery, because it was not written for blacks or American Indians.Mr. Glover is quite ignorant when in fact during the Constitutional Convention, there were black American Citizens like Benjamin Bannecker born in 1731 who was a scientist, surveyor, author and farmer in Maryland who was part of the group with Major Andrew Ellicot who surveyed the area which would become the District of Columbia.Mr. Bannecker corresponded with Thomas Jefferson and President Jefferson while championing Mr. Bannecker later discovered that some of Mr. Bannecker's intelligence perhaps was owed to the work of Maj. Ellicot."/>

			<outline text="In any event, Benjamin Bannecker was an American, and the Second Amendment was written for him, and he never expressed that possession of firearms had anything to do with slavery, as he had rights to firearms as much as white Americans did."/>

			<outline text="Mr. Glover expounds upon his ignorance of historical fact in the reality that the United States Constitution did not afford rights to slaves nor to Indians. The reality is the US Constitution did not afford rights to Chinese in Asia no more than to a German in Europe, as at that time the American Indian was a sovereign people with their own set of laws and codes by nations. Many of whom were in genocidal warfare against all Americans, and were in the process of owning their own slaves, black and white in their sovereign lands.These savages and they were savages were cannibals, torturers, slave holders and genocidalists in league with the European empirical powers of England, Spain and France against Americans.The Indian lost their wars and had to become civilized."/>

			<outline text="The slave of that time was property, but protected under American property rights. Houses nor more than cattle were afforded rights in the Constitution, no more than they were denied any rights to owning guns."/>

			<outline text="In a historical reality, the leader of the Filipino guerilla fighters reported to US military a question that puzzled him in what those metal things on barrels were used for. Those metal things, were gun sights for aiming. If indigenous peoples were ignorant of weapons, then a slave would have no more insight into a firearm than a cow would. The &quot;right&quot; was Constitutionally contingent on various aspects as voting included at times property ownership, which hindered the poor."/>

			<outline text="Indians could trade an island for beads, because beads had more value than Manhattan. To compare apples and oranges is ignorance on Mr. Glover's part and is designed that way as it appeals to the ignorant mind."/>

			<outline text=" The reality is though that there was a vast difference in African Negroids. There is a reason that Algerians were not imported as slaves, and that was because they were armed.The same with Zulu, Dinka, Masai and other armed tribes. Slaves were made of Arabs, superior aggressive blacks and European traders, because Danny Glover's group was a group as President Theodore Roosevelt noted in African Game Trails in 1910, in being a people who would not build shelters from the cold, but instead would huddle under bushes in misery."/>

			<outline text="President Roosevelt stated that he and his white party, would have to force these blacks who were the basic group that American Negroid slaves derived from to build a shelter, light a fire, and then he reported they would smile happily.This was their nature in need of civilization which Queen Victoria and other colonial powers were attempting to transform the African Negroid into a civilized people of self determination.Theodore Roosevelt noted the American Afroid was much further advanced and had in fact been bettered by slavery. The simple  reason is Danny Glover's parents were not intelligent enough to move from the slave trade to lands far enough away to be captured. They would re inhabit areas where slaves were taken like gophers returning to an empty burrow.In that, Danny Glover's relatives would have been eaten by a lion or by a crocodile as the African Negroid of that group was a fatalist in concluding that one was going to die, so why build a boma or a stake pen in a river to keep a crocodile from getting you, as that was meant to be."/>

			<outline text="Much of Danny Glover's ignorant rants like those who espouse such things for Obama, only reflect the African heritage which President Roosevelt commented on. They lack reason and their reasoning is flawed as they want something to be true, in this case they want this Chinese product of a Hawaiian brothel in Barry Chin AKA Barack Hussein Obama to be right about any anti American policy he dictates as that means Danny Glover has advanced from camping out under bushes.Hollywood stereotype and script writing can not change the fact that ignorance abounds and is embraced by the American Afriod."/>

			<outline text="There is a reason that this blog utilizes the definition Afroid for Americans, as they are as separate a race from the Negroid as the Egyptian and Algerian. The Afroid in America is a product of this slave class who were not adept at concluding flight was the best survival technique in Darwin natural selection. They were then selected by slave traders as they were easy to capture and control.This group then bred with Caucasians in majority and sometimes Mongoloid in the American Indian, producing this Afroid American race which is considered &quot;black&quot; today and has little in common with genetic African Negroids in nature.The Afroid is more aggressive and this is the problem, where the Negroid of Africa is more complacent in not acting nor speaking before they think. Danny Glover simply does not reason things out, but acts and starts speaking and is revealed the ignorant for Obama which he is."/>

			<outline text="This group showcased by Danny Glover chose to trample on Martin King in 2009 in order to elevate themselves to Obama their messiah. It was disgraceful and something they have chosen to ignore as they double down on B. Hussein Obama."/>

			<outline text="Mr. King jr. is often quoted by them. The new tactic is to not focus upon, I HAVE A DREAM speech, but to attempt to quote THE DRUM MAJOR INSTINCT speech, which was the last given by Mr. King."/>

			<outline text="I will quote in part that speech as it is what the Chinoid Obama is and what the American Afroid is in Danny Glover."/>

			<outline text="''let us look calmly and honestly at ourselves, and we will discover that we too have those same basic desires for recognition, for importance'... We all want to be important, to surpass others, to achieve distinction, to lead the parade'... It's a good instinct if you don't distort it and pervert it. Don't give it up. Keep feeling the need for being important. Keep feeling the need for being first. But I want you to be first in love. (Amen) I want you to be first in moral excellence. I want you to be first in generosity.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="That message has been lost by self serving Barack Obama AKA Barry Chin and on the grandiose Danny Glover self serving racism against America.I could not as a Christian more disagree with the context of Mr. King's speech in the part of &quot;keep feeling the need for being important&quot; as that is the selfish message which has only been heard by blacks and what Chinoid Obama has preyed on.Christ taught the greatest must be the least in serving all. There is no room for harboring self importance, even if it is coddled in trying to validate and build self esteem. That is a psychological message for moral disaster which Mr. King ends his message with."/>

			<outline text="Barack Obama is the Mongoloid Drum Major the American Afroid has chosen to lead their black parade into the Obama Abyss."/>

			<outline text="The drum major instinct can lead to exclusivism in one's thinking and can lead one to feel that because he has some training, he's a little better than that person who doesn't have it. Or because he has some economic security, that he's a little better than that person who doesn't have it. And that's the uncontrolled, perverted use of the drum major instinct."/>

			<outline text="The very Danny Glover, Obama voter and Barack Hussein Obama people who bring up the Drum Major Instinct do not do so to warn of self serving, but do it to use it as leverage in &quot;a black man knows something more than a white man as cracker only knows of I HAVE A DREAM&quot;, and these Obama voters with Obama are quoting that speech in the very violation of what Martin King warned of, and what this blog disagreed with Martin King on a posted above in allowing selfishness to have any grounds in the heart, every time blooms into an Obama who is tearing down Jesus the Christ, Ronald Reagan or Martin King for Obama to take that place of admiration, and as Obama is tearing down America, sure as hell is hot, you will always have a Danny Glover chiming in with his Amen to allah, about how self serving Obama is a great deal, because that kind of selfishness is lusted after by Danny Glover."/>

			<outline text="No one calls Obama or the Glovers on these reprehensible misbehaviors. It is the greatest of tragedies that the silence of the Clarence Thomas' is deafening in no one standing up and exposing this ignorance gone mad for this sociopath Barack Obama, the 10 year old Indoneisan adopted boy, looking to validate hisself as president of something and chameleon to  to a growing list of accomplished people, so Barry Chin can feel good about hisself."/>

			<outline text="That is what is behind Danny Glover being loud, in he does not feel good about himself as a black man, so he takes on the Afroid mentality to try to be an intellectual as he knows how unintelligent he is.Ben Afleck is this type in white liberalism in the Letterman cocktail crowd who are phobic of how stupid they are, so they indulge in attempting to have Charlie Rose intelligence."/>

			<outline text="All of this is on full display, and yet it falls to here to set the point on this again as the cowards all cower behind their Rush Limbaugh Mockingbird salaries and the Obama parade marches jackboot on in dullard thuggary of the mind and conversation."/>

			<outline text="These kinds of diatribes were tolerable when a Barack Hussein Obama was not around with his fingers on military, monetary and Constitutional buttons, but now they are real problems, and made so by the Afroid Danny Glover types reinforcing the idiotry of B. Hussein Obama.Yes idiotry is now a defined social class of Obama voters."/>

			<outline text="It is one thing to celebrate a Benjamin Bannecker or for a Danny Glover to ignore a black Citizen of the Constitution. It is though another matter of reason after being euphoric that the monkey can turn the grinder and make organ music."/>

			<outline text="This is what Thomas Jefferson concluded in 1809 after praising Bannecker in being duped by Bannecker's &quot;abilities&quot;."/>

			<outline text="The whole do not amount, in point of evidence, to what we know ourselves of Banneker. We know he had spherical trigonometry enough to make almanacs, but not without the suspicion of aid from Ellicot, who was his neighbor and friend, and never missed an opportunity of puffing him. I have a long letter from Banneker, which shows him to have had a mind of very common stature indeed."/>

			<outline text="The common stature points to Mr Ellicot was the organ grinder assisting his pet designer negro.Barack Obama is this generation's designed negro. Those who celebrate him are fools and those who celebrate Obama's unConstitutional regime are fools like Danny Glover."/>

			<outline text="Barack Obama exposes the racism and psychopathy of the Afroids who follow this pied piper. Jake Tapper does it for his perversions. Danny Glover does it for a perverted soul in his knowing he does not measure up."/>

			<outline text="Regrettably ignorance abounds among Obama followers, and there are no Maj. Ellicot's to assist the thought processes of a Bill Maher or a Danny Glover to reason out what Barack Obama's massive failings are.Yes Charlie Rose as much as Jake Tapper know this, but their behind the doors conversations to not match their public rhetoric, hidden behind their condescending looks at all things Obama and his voters."/>

			<outline text="The American Afroid has replaced a bush for an Obama to huddle under and are still not content."/>

			<outline text="This is the devolution process on display as was first written of here in another Lame Cherry matter anti matter exclusive.It is not a Darwinian process in the least for it is not genetic, but it is a mental choice of degradation in following Obama into the abyss. The natural proclivities of the Afroid in being both Caucasian and Negroid, indulges to descend to the easiest or most accessible route and that is the support of Barack Obama in his &quot;blackness&quot;, instead of choosing the whiteness all of these Obama voters are 50 to 75 percent genetically housed in."/>

			<outline text="Human nature is naturally sloven in naturally choosing the laziest way to success. That is the Obama Birther career and that is the Obama supporter career in not having the mental nor moral aptitude to advance, but relying first on Affirmative Action and now on Obama Action to &quot;overcome&quot;."/>

			<outline text="The Afroid parade of ignorance with their Obama drum majorette leading the band. It is time a Jefferson stood again and exposed this designer negro farce, so the reality of the humiliation silences the ignorance and evokes a nature of education with facts, instead of Barry Chin fantasies in Danny Glover propaganda."/>

			<outline text="The difference today from 1800 intellectuals, that when Thomas Jefferson realized he had been fooled by his designer negro of the day, in intellectual angst he arose and exposed it, for it was an affront to his intelligence. Today the Zbigniew Brzezinski intellectuals know they fooled the masses in installing B. Hussein Obama, and are willing to look the fool for that gain in not exposing Obama and allowing an intellectually retarded Danny  Glover be their spokesman."/>

			<outline text="Blacks are not the only ones experiencing devolutionary choices. The white Obama intellectual has succumbed in the succor of Obama to devolve also."/>

			<outline text="Fascinating study of the Afroid of Bannecker and Obama, with King in the middle of the sandwich which white intellectuals designed and Danny Glover praises as the repas de la journ(C)e."/>

			<outline text="Link to Article" type="link" url="http://www.thedailybell.com/28609/John-Browne-German-Gold-Claw-Back-Causes-Concern"/>

			<outline text="Wed, 23 Jan 2013 15:30"/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="Last week the Bundesbank (the German central bank) surprised markets around the world by announcing that it will repatriate a sizable portion of its gold bullion reserves held in France and the United States. To many, the news from the world's second largest holder of gold signaled a growing, if clandestine, mistrust among central banks, possibly fueled by diverging policy goals. The Germans have attempted to tamp down the alarm by highlighting the myriad of logistical, practical and historical reasons that qualified the announcement as unremarkable. But the size, scope, and timing of the move makes it hard not to draw more strategic conclusions."/>

			<outline text="Coming during a time of supposed central bank cooperation, the decision to withdraw billions of dollars of bullion was bound to raise eyebrows. At present, Germany has official gold holdings of some 3,396 tonnes. 1,500 tonnes resides in New York and 374 tonnes in Paris. Between now and 2020, Germany will repatriate 674 tonnes of gold '' 300 from the Fed in New York (valued at $17.9 billion) and the entire 374 tonne allotment from Paris (valued at $22.3 billion). Although financial leaders like Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke have said that gold &quot;is not money&quot; and senior investors like Warren Buffet have described it as &quot;a barbarous relic,&quot; the movement of gold nevertheless makes a strong emotional impact. Is such a response justified?"/>

			<outline text="Coming during a time of supposed central bank cooperation, the decision to withdraw billions of dollars of bullion was bound to raise eyebrows. Although financial leaders like Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke have said that gold &quot;is not money&quot; and senior investors like Warren Buffet have described it as &quot;a barbarous relic,&quot; the movement of gold nevertheless makes a strong emotional impact. Is such a response justified?"/>

			<outline text="Following World War II, the threat of a sudden Soviet invasion convinced many Western European nations to diversify their gold holdings abroad, particularly overseas to the US and the UK. Today, Germany holds only 31 percent of its gold within the Bundesbank. Of the remainder, 45 percent is held at the Federal Reserve Bank in New York, 11 percent with the Banque de France in Paris, and 13 percent with the Bank of England in London. But now that the Russian military threat has dissipated, the Germans have rightly reevaluated its dispositions."/>

			<outline text="For decades, central banks have been secretive about their gold holdings. Despite this, few doubt the published aggregate gold holdings of central banks. But serious questions arise as to the precise ownership of the gold held in the vaults of central banks and some commercial banks. To the astonishment of many German citizens and international observers, the Bundesbank admitted some years ago that it had not held an audit of its gold holdings for decades, if ever. (See my prior commentary on this subject)"/>

			<outline text="The developed nations of the world have adopted a form of Keynesian economics that has created a world awash with debased fiat currency supported by seemingly unsupportable mountains of official debt. In such a world, it is understandable that German citizens feel their nation's gold should be held at home. Such sentiment could spread. Holland's CDA Party already has asked that their nation's 612 tonnes, or metric tons, of gold be repatriated from the U.S., the UK and from Canada."/>

			<outline text="Some question whether such sentiments will spread and expose even a shortage of physical gold in hitherto trusted vaults. In addition, in a world where trust in central banks is waning fast, central banks themselves may become mistrusting of each other."/>

			<outline text="At the same time, central banks in the developing world, particularly in China and Southeast Asia, are accumulating gold, as are nations like Russia, Turkey and Ukraine. China is now the world's largest producer of gold worldwide, but she retains her production and even buys more on the open market. This has occurred even while no major central banks are selling significant amounts of gold. The Bank of England's disastrous selling campaign in the early years of the current century, in which it sold hundreds of tons below $300 per ounce, is no doubt a controlling factor."/>

			<outline text="The unwillingness of central banks to part with their hoarding of gold, highlighted by Germany's repatriation, contrasts starkly with the central bank policies of the 1970s and 1980s, when concerted efforts were made to de-monetize gold, which could only be done through active selling. Does this change reflect a growing and shared distrust of fiat currency by sophisticated private investors who hoard gold?"/>

			<outline text="The repatriation of even a part of Germany's central bank gold holdings, especially if followed by other nations such as Holland, should be regarded with concern. Today, no central bank would dare to risk rocking the central banking boat. But as the Keynesian economies have slid towards financial disaster, any increase in central bank gold repatriation could indicate a real fear by the great insiders '-- central banks."/>

			<outline text="A particularly interesting aspect of the announcement that has been largely ignored is the extraordinarily lengthy seven year time period in which the Germans expect to receive back their gold. The 300 tons they're repatriating from the New York Fed reflects just five percent of the more than 6,700 tons held there. It strikes many as unusual that the Fed would need so much time to deliver what should be a manageable withdrawal."/>

			<outline text="January 19, 2013 (LocalOrg) - Worried about draconian Internet laws? Creeping surveillance? The inability to share with others without being criminalized? The Internet is still a tool of tremendous power, but a deep rot has set in. We have caught it early and we are fighting to stop this rot, but there are other options we can begin exploring to hedge our bets, enhance our current efforts of fighting against corporate monopolies, and eventually, build an Internet of the people, by the people, for the people - big-telecom monopolies not welcomed.Image: The PirateBox in use on a handheld device. Once the PirateBox is up and running, either on a standalone device like the one pictured to the right (background), or on your laptop as described here, it will appear as another WiFi network for people in range to connect to. Once connected files can be freely shared, and there is even a chat client users can communicate with. It is just as useful as a file server for a small business, as it is for circumventing the draconian criminalization of Internet file sharing. In last week's &quot;Fighting Back Against the &quot;Intellectual Property&quot; Racket,&quot; the &quot;PirateBox&quot; was introduced. The PirateBox transforms a laptop, router, or single board computer into a mini-Internet hub where files can be freely shared, and even features a chat program so users can communicate. It is a lite version of the mesh networks described in December 2012's &quot;Decentralizing Telecom&quot; where independent mesh networks featured many software alternatives to emulate popular online programs such as Facebook, Twitter, Blogger, and others. The PirateBox is an introductory project anyone with a WiFi adapter and a USB thumbdrive can do on their own with a little motivation and an hour to experiment."/>

			<outline text="In a busy office, a PirateBox can serve as a simple local wireless file server and chat client. In an apartment complex, it can become the center of a social experiment, an opportunity to reach out to neighbors and organize constructively, or just for fun - building badly needed local communities back up."/>

			<outline text="Instructions for perhaps the easiest of PirateBox's implementations can be found on blogger, designer, and activist David Darts' website here. The instructions are nearly fool proof, and a lot of the common problems ran into are described and their solutions linked to throughout the explanation."/>

			<outline text="The PirateBox does not connect to the Internet, nor does it operate from your hard drive. It works entirely on the USB thumbdrive you install it on, simply using your computer's WiFi to network all who are in range."/>

			<outline text="Ideally you'd want to make a dedicated, standalone PirateBox to serve your space, office, and neighbors. A great place for beginners to embark on this is at your local hackerspace. If you don't have a local hackerspace, look into starting one up."/>

			<outline text="Protesting is important, but protesting alone will not stem the problem at its source. The rot will continue to spread unless we develop tangible tools to pragmatically excise it and repair the damage it has already done. The problem of corporate monopolies ensnaring and subjugating us through their telecom monopolies can and is being solved by solutions like mesh networks, the PirateBox, and the onward march of open source software and hardware, simply displacing proprietary products and services. The best way to ensure success is to have as many informed and constructive people as possible join in the problem-solving process. "/>

			<outline text="Editor's Note: There seems to be some confusion over the concept of the PirateBox. The entire point is not to be connected to the controlled, restricted, &amp;amp; monopolized Internet, and begin using local alternatives leveraging technology to go around draconian laws and regulations. A PirateBox is the smallest, but easiest way to connect with others locally and wirelessly,as well as anonymously, without connecting at all to the Internet. It is the first step to building larger local mesh networks, and eventually a parallel Internet built using mesh architecture designed, maintained, and used by the people, for the people - no government or corporate infrastructure would be required, and the means of monopolizing and controlling a decentralized people's Internet made nearly impossible. Think of the PirateBox as a prototype of a building block for something bigger and more significant. In the fight for freedom, we will not find complete solutions, prepackaged and waiting for us on the shelves of WalMart. We will have to research and develop our own solutions, patiently, incrementally, and in collaboration with our friends, family, neighbors and local community. Our problems were not created overnight, neither will the solutions. Since posting about the PirateBox, LocalOrg has received several success stories of people who have either already been using it, or have looked into it, prompting this follow up. Continue sharing your success, and if you would like, contact us and have them covered here on LocalOrg."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="11:55 A.M. EST"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="THE PRESIDENT:  Vice President Biden, Mr. Chief Justice,"/>

			<outline text="members of the United States Congress, distinguished guests, and fellow citizens:  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Each time we gather to inaugurate a President we bear witness to the enduring strength of our Constitution.  We affirm the promise of our democracy.  We recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names.  What makes us exceptional -- what makes us American -- is our allegiance to an idea articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago:"/>

			<outline text="''We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.''  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Today we continue a never-ending journey to bridge the meaning of those words with the realities of our time.  For history tells us that while these truths may be self-evident, they've never been self-executing; that while freedom is a gift from God, it must be secured by His people here on Earth.  (Applause.)  The patriots of 1776 did not fight to replace the tyranny of a king with the privileges of a few or the rule of a mob.  They gave to us a republic, a government of, and by, and for the people, entrusting each generation to keep safe our founding creed.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="And for more than two hundred years, we have.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Through blood drawn by lash and blood drawn by sword, we learned that no union founded on the principles of liberty and equality could survive half-slave and half-free.  We made ourselves anew, and vowed to move forward together.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Together, we determined that a modern economy requires railroads and highways to speed travel and commerce, schools and colleges to train our workers. "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Together, we discovered that a free market only thrives when there are rules to ensure competition and fair play.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Together, we resolved that a great nation must care for the vulnerable, and protect its people from life's worst hazards and misfortune. "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Through it all, we have never relinquished our skepticism of central authority, nor have we succumbed to the fiction that all society's ills can be cured through government alone.  Our celebration of initiative and enterprise, our insistence on hard work and personal responsibility, these are constants in our character."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="But we have always understood that when times change, so must we; that fidelity to our founding principles requires new responses to new challenges; that preserving our individual freedoms ultimately requires collective action.  For the American people can no more meet the demands of today's world by acting alone than American soldiers could have met the forces of fascism or communism with muskets and militias.  No single person can train all the math and science teachers we'll need to equip our children for the future, or build the roads and networks and research labs that will bring new jobs and businesses to our shores.  Now, more than ever, we must do these things together, as one nation and one people.  (Applause.) "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="This generation of Americans has been tested by crises that steeled our resolve and proved our resilience.  A decade of war is now ending.  (Applause.)  An economic recovery has begun.  (Applause.)  America's possibilities are limitless, for we possess all the qualities that this world without boundaries demands:  youth and drive; diversity and openness; an endless capacity for risk and a gift for reinvention.  My fellow Americans, we are made for this moment, and we will seize it -- so long as we seize it together.  (Applause.)  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="For we, the people, understand that our country cannot succeed when a shrinking few do very well and a growing many barely make it.  (Applause.)  We believe that America's prosperity must rest upon the broad shoulders of a rising middle class.  We know that America thrives when every person can find independence and pride in their work; when the wages of honest labor liberate families from the brink of hardship.  We are true to our creed when a little girl born into the bleakest poverty knows that she has the same chance to succeed as anybody else, because she is an American; she is free, and she is equal, not just in the eyes of God but also in our own.  (Applause.)   "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="We understand that outworn programs are inadequate to the needs of our time.  So we must harness new ideas and technology to remake our government, revamp our tax code, reform our schools, and empower our citizens with the skills they need to work harder, learn more, reach higher.  But while the means will change, our purpose endures:  a nation that rewards the effort and determination of every single American.  That is what this moment requires.  That is what will give real meaning to our creed.   "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="We, the people, still believe that every citizen deserves a basic measure of security and dignity.  We must make the hard choices to reduce the cost of health care and the size of our deficit.  But we reject the belief that America must choose between caring for the generation that built this country and investing in the generation that will build its future.  (Applause.)  For we remember the lessons of our past, when twilight years were spent in poverty and parents of a child with a disability had nowhere to turn. "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="We do not believe that in this country freedom is reserved for the lucky, or happiness for the few.  We recognize that no matter how responsibly we live our lives, any one of us at any time may face a job loss, or a sudden illness, or a home swept away in a terrible storm.  The commitments we make to each other through Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security, these things do not sap our initiative, they strengthen us.  (Applause.)  They do not make us a nation of takers; they free us to take the risks that make this country great.  (Applause.)  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="We, the people, still believe that our obligations as Americans are not just to ourselves, but to all posterity.  We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations.  (Applause.)  Some may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science, but none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires and crippling drought and more powerful storms.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="The path towards sustainable energy sources will be long and sometimes difficult.  But America cannot resist this transition, we must lead it.  We cannot cede to other nations the technology that will power new jobs and new industries, we must claim its promise.  That's how we will maintain our economic vitality and our national treasure -- our forests and waterways, our crop lands and snow-capped peaks.  That is how we will preserve our planet, commanded to our care by God.  That's what will lend meaning to the creed our fathers once declared."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="We, the people, still believe that enduring security and lasting peace do not require perpetual war.  (Applause.)  Our brave men and women in uniform, tempered by the flames of battle, are unmatched in skill and courage.  (Applause.)  Our citizens, seared by the memory of those we have lost, know too well the price that is paid for liberty.  The knowledge of their sacrifice will keep us forever vigilant against those who would do us harm. But we are also heirs to those who won the peace and not just the war; who turned sworn enemies into the surest of friends -- and we must carry those lessons into this time as well."/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="We will defend our people and uphold our values through strength of arms and rule of law.  We will show the courage to try and resolve our differences with other nations peacefully ''- not because we are na&amp;#175;ve about the dangers we face, but because engagement can more durably lift suspicion and fear.  (Applause.)"/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="America will remain the anchor of strong alliances in every corner of the globe.  And we will renew those institutions that extend our capacity to manage crisis abroad, for no one has a greater stake in a peaceful world than its most powerful nation.  We will support democracy from Asia to Africa, from the Americas to the Middle East, because our interests and our conscience compel us to act on behalf of those who long for freedom.  And we must be a source of hope to the poor, the sick, the marginalized, the victims of prejudice ''- not out of mere charity, but because peace in our time requires the constant advance of those principles that our common creed describes:  tolerance and opportunity, human dignity and justice.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="We, the people, declare today that the most evident of truths ''- that all of us are created equal ''- is the star that guides us still; just as it guided our forebears through Seneca Falls, and Selma, and Stonewall; just as it guided all those men and women, sung and unsung, who left footprints along this great Mall, to hear a preacher say that we cannot walk alone; to hear a King proclaim that our individual freedom is inextricably bound to the freedom of every soul on Earth.  (Applause.) "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="It is now our generation's task to carry on what those pioneers began.  For our journey is not complete until our wives, our mothers and daughters can earn a living equal to their efforts.  (Applause.)  Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law  ''- (applause) -- for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well.  (Applause.)  Our journey is not complete until no citizen is forced to wait for hours to exercise the right to vote.  (Applause.)  Our journey is not complete until we find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land of opportunity -- (applause) -- until bright young students and engineers are enlisted in our workforce rather than expelled from our country.  (Applause.)   Our journey is not complete until all our children, from the streets of Detroit to the hills of Appalachia, to the quiet lanes of Newtown, know that they are cared for and cherished and always safe from harm.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="That is our generation's task -- to make these words, these rights, these values of life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness real for every American.  Being true to our founding documents does not require us to agree on every contour of life. It does not mean we all define liberty in exactly the same way or follow the same precise path to happiness.  Progress does not compel us to settle centuries-long debates about the role of government for all time, but it does require us to act in our time.  (Applause.)  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="For now decisions are upon us and we cannot afford delay.  We cannot mistake absolutism for principle, or substitute spectacle for politics, or treat name-calling as reasoned debate.  (Applause.)  We must act, knowing that our work will be imperfect.  We must act, knowing that today's victories will be only partial and that it will be up to those who stand here in four years and 40 years and 400 years hence to advance the timeless spirit once conferred to us in a spare Philadelphia hall. "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="My fellow Americans, the oath I have sworn before you today, like the one recited by others who serve in this Capitol, was an oath to God and country, not party or faction.  And we must faithfully execute that pledge during the duration of our service.  But the words I spoke today are not so different from the oath that is taken each time a soldier signs up for duty or an immigrant realizes her dream.  My oath is not so different from the pledge we all make to the flag that waves above and that fills our hearts with pride.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="They are the words of citizens and they represent our greatest hope.  You and I, as citizens, have the power to set this country's course.  You and I, as citizens, have the obligation to shape the debates of our time -- not only with the votes we cast, but with the voices we lift in defense of our most ancient values and enduring ideals.  (Applause.)  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Let us, each of us, now embrace with solemn duty and awesome joy what is our lasting birthright.  With common effort and common purpose, with passion and dedication, let us answer the call of history and carry into an uncertain future that precious light of freedom.  "/>

			<outline text=" "/>

			<outline text="Thank you.  God bless you, and may He forever bless these United States of America.  (Applause.)  "/>

			<outline text=""/>

			<outline text="Former Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich says that President Barack Obama's policies are allowing a &quot;worldwide virus&quot; of terrorism from places like North Africa and Syria to destabilize the planet and &quot;potentially&quot; infect Europe and the United States."/>

			<outline text="Gingrich on Sunday told CNN's Candy Crowley that a recent hostage crisis at a gas plant in Algeria was evidence that terrorism was more like a virus than &quot;Whac-A-Mole.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;I think we haven't had any honest epidemiology,&quot; he explained. &quot;We're trying to hunt down 5,000 people in al Qaeda, there is a potential pool of 65 to 100 million recruits... They're spreading across the whole planet, from the Philippines to, frankly, the United States. And I think we greatly underestimate how many places you're going to have trouble in the next decade.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="&quot;We talk about the Iranian potential nuclear weapon, Pakistan is probably building more nuclear weapons than any other country in the world right now,&quot; he continued. &quot;Pakistan is a very fragile system which could disintegrate at any time. We're not prepared for that. The whole challenge of the Persian Gulf, we're not prepared for that. The level of violence in Syria.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="The former House Speaker argued that Obama was advocating a &quot;minimalist approach to the world&quot; by nominating Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) and former Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-NE) to be secretary of state and secretary of defense."/>

			<outline text="&quot;Neither of them nor the president have a positive vision of how you're going to deal with a worldwide virus that is increasingly destabilizing the planet,&quot; he opined."/>

			<outline text="&quot;And that's what's happening from Pakistan through North Africa to Syria, and I think potentially in Europe and the United States.&quot;"/>

			<outline text="It is amazing at  times even for me when everything this blog has predicted starts coming to be. Amazing to me, because I'm usually too focused and immersed in receiving Inspiration that I do not have time to notice things coming to be which were Prophesied."/>

			<outline text="I warned here in Inspiration from God that Obama was dragging America into intertribal Islamic wars, and that is exactly what has engulfed America.For a reality though which requires to sink in as Barack Obama tries to become O'Lincoln, in reversing Lincoln's emancipation, by enslaving the world in the global feudal state, that Barack Obama had one more dead ghost to scribble his name on, and that is Obama for his deranged reasons even is moved by obsession to become pasted over the worst President in American history in Jimmy Carter."/>

			<outline text="The headlines reveal it all."/>

			<outline text="West faces 'decades' of conflict in N Africa...Next Afghanistan?"/>

			<outline text="Death toll climbs past 80 in siege in Sahara..."/>

			<outline text="CLAIM: Some Al Qaeda terrorists 'were working for BP, could precisely plan their attack'..."/>

			<outline text="Most weapons used in attack came from Libya..."/>

			<outline text="For a historical reality, the Middle East upon Jewish resettlement, was thrown into turmoil when the Ashkenaz started moving around these Arabs into the Holy Land, where there were recorded in Mark Twain's visit not that many Arabs there.The Ashkenaz through various governments sowed into the Middle East a series of charismatic nationalists like Nassar of Egypt to the French created dogma of Ba'athism, which is basic communism infused with Islam in order to control the region. This was done for financial control of this vast reserve of energy there, which they then in order to control America, linked the dollar to barrels of OPEC oil they were pumping, to degrade the US Dollar and fund this radical Islam as envisioned by Jimmy Carter's Zbigneiw Brzezinski."/>

			<outline text="In all honesty, after the 72 war, the Middle East was not an open hot zone of wars or turmoil. Then Brzezinski with British communist Rothschilds decided to take over Iran in deposing the Shah, who was a wonderful stable pro American leader keeping oil prices low for US interests, and they brought in for radical Islam and oil price control, Ayatollah Khomeini the communist Ba'athist out of Europe."/>

			<outline text="All hell broke loose as the revolution seized Americans as hostages and held Carter hostage which thankfully ended his horrendous tenure as President. It though started off all of the problems America has faced for the past decades. A little Brzezinski Muhajadeen in Afghanistan against the Soviets transformed to globalist al Qaeda under Bill Clinton and into 9 11, in murderous wars and terrorism America was crippled by."/>

			<outline text="Barack Obama though has now in mission for his old world order of the feudal state, has debt spent trillions, slaughtered Muslim babies and American Soldiers and has in his machinations in the Pan Muslim world created an inferno in North Africa which is not going to end for a generation.This is the greatest catastrophe literally of the Obama overthrow of the American Constitutional system for all it means as this projects out."/>

			<outline text="Obama deliberately did not secure Libyan arms depots, so all of those weapons ended up to spread more wars in Africa.We still do not know where thousands of surface to air missiles disappeared to, only that they were used to threaten Sarah Palin if she ran for President in 2012 in her plane would be shot out of the sky. The exact message in detail was not delivered to Mrs. Palin, but she was well aware after the Gabby Giffords example assassination that she needed protection, and the Romney insiders, and that includes Ulstermans Wall Street Insider offered Sarah Palin the Presidency and that is why she was acting coy. They never had any intention of backing her, but lured her in with protection and then in September 2011 pulled all protection and money, and let it be known if she ran, she would face more than political rape."/>

			<outline text="The Obama overthrow of America had help from Mitt Romney and his caste out of New York. Sarah Palin was supposed to be President now, or in essence acting President for the aging John McCain in order to save America out of what is coming."/>

			<outline text="What is coming, is a greater Muslim inferno than what even Jimmy Carter set ablaze. Brzezinski's order is for this Obama Caliph of communist Muslims to be the thugs, the merchantmen of contraband and the enforcers through terrorism to keep the New Asian Order and the Neo Roman Empire greased .......so the empires can appear to be civil by employing Muslims to do the murder work."/>

			<outline text="This has now been all unleashed in North Africa and where Carter only had one Iran blowing up the world, Barack Hussein Obama now has a half dozen Irans, not with sanctions, but with free access to western travel and technology from Egypt to Libya with Turkish machinations moving this entire melding of African Asian terrorists, direct into the gut of Europe through the &quot;white Muslims&quot; of Kosovo and Albania."/>

			<outline text="Thank you Madeleine Albright for the Islamocommunist beach head into Europe and America in your oil pipeline Kosovo War. How are those disgusting Christian Serbians now Ms. Albright now that you have hells Islamic inferno started by your B. Hussein Obama?"/>

			<outline text="Rhetorical Maddy."/>

			<outline text="Think of what Obama has done to Africa and what genocide it will be for black Muhammedans. Think of what a TERROR CONTINENT is going to mean to America. Barack Obama has created an entire continent of terror in which terrorists can train and rule in the open with full access to all sorts of weapons of mass destruction.Africa is a Terror Continent, and that is another Lame Cherry matter anti matter exclusive."/>

			<outline text="These are Baraham O'Lincoln's Wars. Terror from South Africa to North Africa. Michael Savage funding terrorists to shoot people, because Obama's terrorist poachers are shooting ivory as Obama's other terrorists in trade have stolen all the means to make a living in Africa."/>

			<outline text="What a robust world the political son of Jimmy Carter has raped the world into. If one projects the numbers in Bill Gates &quot;work of God&quot;, his messiah Obama, in wars in Africa for decades and all the fall out, the Negroid will be destined to depopulate in the 100 million person  total through disease, starvation and simple non breeding regeneration from upheaval."/>

			<outline text="I sincerely hope Danny Glover and all the American Afroids cheer that reality too in what Barack Obama unleashed. THIS IS HIS ARAB SPRING. He took credit for this. He overthrew Egypt. He bombed Libya. He allowed Algeria to be blown up with Libyan weapons."/>

			<outline text="Those are the realities. Barack Obama has now outdone Jimmy Carter. The world does not just have one Iran but a Continent of Iran's all due to deliberate Obama policy for his Isalmocommunist Caliph."/>

			<outline text="The American Republic is dead. Africa is now dying in Obama slaughter. The world will one day be a grave due to the direct policies of Barack Hussein Obama."/>
