Turkey is training Islamic State terrorists in a camp disguised as a training ground for the Free Syrian Army, a 20-year-old jihadist captured by the Kurdish YPG told Sputnik. The prisoner said Ankara’s help to the “moderate” Syrian opposition is not as innocent as portrayed.
New York is reaping the whirlwind of sky-high cigarette taxes with a wave of smuggling decimating the state’s revenue.
In what a new Ministry of Defense (MoD) report circulating in the Kremlin today is describing as President Barack Obama’s “worst nightmare”, the Ministry of National Defense (MoND) of the People’s Republic of China has secured the permission of the Syria Arab Republic to begin “flooding” into the Levant War Zone up to 5,000 of its most elite military forces, and which will first include the feared Shenyang Military Region “Siberian Tiger” Special Forces and Lanzhou Military Region “Night Tiger” Special Forces Units.
Containing the scourge of Islamist terror will be impossible without containing the ideology that drives it: Wahhabism, a messianic, jihad-extolling form of Sunni fundamentalism whose international expansion has been bankrolled by oil-rich sheikhdoms, especially Saudi Arabia. That is why the newly announced Saudi-led anti-terror coalition, the Islamic Military Alliance to Fight Terrorism, should be viewed with profound skepticism.
Saudi Arabia has been bankrolling Islamist terrorism since the oil-price boom of the 1970s dramatically boosted the country’s wealth. According to a 2013 European Parliament report, some of the $10 billion invested by Saudi Arabia for “its Wahhabi agenda” in South and Southeast Asia was “diverted” to terrorist groups, including Lashkar-e-Taiba, which carried out the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks.

Ontario’s profligate spending government, the Liberals, has come up with a novel approach to paying down the obscene level of debt the province has run up of late. They’ve taken to panhandling asking for citizens to voluntarily donate their tax refunds for next year to the cause.
After all:
…there have been so many unexpected costs lately. The gas plant scandal was supposed to cost $230 million, but that ended up being closer to $1 billion. The smart meter program ended up costing $1.9 billion, more than twice the original estimated cost. And then there’s that $9.2 billion in extra costs for the Green Energy Act. Money just seems to be flying away, and we’re not talking about wind turbines here.
So look into your heart. Forget about the Syrian refugees or the Salvation Army this year. Skip your annual United Way donation or whatever cancer or heart foundation you usually give to. Those guys don’t know the first thing about crippling debt or borrowing beyond their means. They’re actually required to have balanced operating budgets. Pffft.
No, it’s time for Ontarians to band together and bail out our country’s biggest charity case: The Ontario government.
We say if Premier Kathleen Wynne’s so concerned with paying down the debt, maybe she shouldn’t be so eager to run it up.
But that kind of screwball thinking is why we’re bloggers, not politicians.
Turns out former Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver frontman Scott Weiland’s untimely demise earlier this month was the result of “mixed drug toxicity.”
… But fails to mention that she ran the operation to supply them with weapons.
Hillary Clinton accused Donald Trump of becoming Isil’s “best recruiter” during Saturday’s Democratic presidential debate in a fierce condemnation of the Republican front-runner’s call to ban all Muslims from entering the US.
“They are going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists,” she said. “So I want to explain why this is not in America’s interest to react with this kind of fear and respond to this sort of bigotry.”
University of Virginia rape-hoaxer Jackie Coakley, whose fanciful and false tale of being gang raped by frat boys was exactly the sort of outlandish fiction Rolling Stone writer Sabrina Erdely was hoping for, has apparently found herself a sucker the love of her life the only male in North America who hasn’t heard of this Google contraption.
GotNews.com recently reported the happy couple tied the knot in a beach wedding, with pictures posted on Coakley’s father’s Facebook profile.
Well, to Ms. Coakley’s new Mr., we say, “Good luck sir. And get everything in writing with third party verification.”
No word on whether Coakley sent herself a congratulatory email from her phantom ex “Haven Monahan.”
Star Wars fans aren’t just busy getting into the new Star Wars movie proper, but also a ton of Star Wars-inspired porno:
Porn retailer GameLink said sales of “Star Wars XXX” — a 2012 parody flick that features the classic characters making Wookiee — have surged 500% in the last two weeks.
That’s a whole lot of fans getting a good grip on their “light sabres.”
A Guantanamo Bay terror detainee found the annoying old Whitesnake hit song “Here I Go” again gave him strength when it was intended to torment him into compliance.
Whose side are you on, David Coverdale?
…he says singing the lyrics to Whitesnake’s Here I Go Again – which US authorities used as part of a noise torture tactic which involved playing loud music and white noise – helped him focus on the day he would finally be free.
Psst… for future reference, the correct answer is either Skinny Puppy or Bananarama. Five minutes of that crap and they’ll tell you everything you want to hear.
Read the whole story on the BBC, or just the part that Classic Rock Magazine thought was important here.
