Seven U.S. banks were closed by regulators on Friday, bringing the total this year to 140.

I thought great leader and his minions were going to prevent such things.

To me this smacks of some sort of big time fascist style takeover.

The epitome of a con man.

Their families, burned from their own homes by ethnic cleansing as the conflict ended, were assured it would be for just a few months until a safer place could be found.

Where is the Lame Stream Ministry of truth on this ethnic cleansing, the real story of Kosovo????

Kosovo, the new Mafioso state.

Already three years ago, a study commissioned by the German military, noted that on "the international level," Thaci is in control of wide ranging "criminal networks."

The German Foreign Intelligence Service, BND, concluded even earlier, that Thaci has commissioned "professional killers."
..............................

Haliti is currently a member of the Kosovo Parliament's Presidium and its foreign policy committee. Years ago, the BND has accused him of being involved in organized criminal activities, particularly the sexual slave trade.

McCain Supported Radical Muslims In Kosovo.

We need to recall that the war against the former Yugoslavia was depicted by the liberal media as a worthwhile humanitarian intervention. But it was waged on the basis of Clinton Administration lies of a "genocide" being waged against Albanian Muslims in Kosovo, a province of Serbia.

In fact, the Clinton Administration's NATO war against Yugoslavia probably cost more lives than were lost in the civil war in Kosovo.

Serbian troops were forced to withdraw in exchange for an international guarantee that Serbia would retain sovereignty over Kosovo but the province would get substantial autonomy.

The U.S. agreed to that, but that agreement was violated when the Bush Administration, with backing from McCain and Democratic presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, recently recognized Kosovo's declaration of independence from Serbia.

Albanian muslims harvested and sold human organs from captured healthy young Serbians.

Carla Del Ponte, the ex-chief prosecutor for war crimes in former Yugoslavia, has unleashed a storm of recrimination with allegations of a trade in human body parts in Kosovo and Albania after Nato bombed Serbia in 1999.

Del Ponte claims, based on what she describes as credible reports and witnesses, that Kosovan Albanian guerrillas transported hundreds of Serbian prisoners into northern Albania where they were killed, and their organs "harvested" and trafficked out of Tirana airport.

Sometimes one kidney or other body part would be taken and the prisoner left to live for a while longer until the time they would die when other parts would be taken after which they couldn't possibly live.

Mohammed was “a psychopath, Allah was nothing but his own alter ego,” according to Ali Sina, ex-Muslim.

“Muhammad invented this bugaboo deity to fool people and ride them. Allah is no god. Muhammad was a deranged man. He concocted this whole lie to fool people.

He was no different from Charles Manson"
..............................................
Mohammed beheaded men so he could have sex with their wives (or daughters) in the same night. “He fooled his followers to such extent that one of them allowed him to sleep with his 9-year-old child.

“Muhammad had sexual feelings for Aisha when she was only 6-years-old. Abu Bakr, the history's grand fool, begged Muhammad to wait for a few more years until she matured. But Muhammad, this sick monster, could not wait more than three years and when Aisha was nine he took her to bed and entered her in the same forenoon.

Muhammad was not a human. He was the most evil creature who ever walked on this planet.”
...............................

There are over a billion mortals on the planet who regard Mohammed as the righteous prophet of a “peace religion.” Has the world population lost its mind totally?

Much of the Muslim population is ignorant of the truth regarding their cult.
.........................

What the sane, civilized world faces today is a threat far greater than Nazism. This Islamic cultic spread has 1400 years backing it.
.........................................

Presently, realizing the cult known as "Islam, " it is the old confrontation of good versus bad, righteousness versus evil, God versus Satan. It is not a new conflict. It is the same warring that has gone on for centuries but now garbed in Muslim fanaticism.

The worst a free person can do is to tolerate that which is the enemy attempting to overthrow our republic.
....................................

Don’t try to rationalize its legitimacy.

Don’t try to accept Islam as a religion among world religions.

Clinton-Approved Iranian Arms Transfers, Helped Turn Bosnia into Militant Islamic Base.

The Clinton Administration's policy of facilitating the delivery of arms to the Bosnian Muslims made it the de facto partner of an ongoing international network of governments and organizations pursuing their own agenda in Bosnia: the promotion of Islamic revolution in Europe.

Nice move, now we have Iranian missiles in place to strike central Europe, I hope I don't smell another Cuban missile crisis.

1. How many a township have We destroyed! As a raid by night, or while they slept at noon, Our terror came unto them.

Groundspeed check, last training sortie. (Unknown pilot is Maj Brian Shul ret.)




"How slow can an SR-71 go?" December 20, 2009.
(Originally published in "Plane and Pilot" magazine, I can't get a link to the original article, here it is

As a former SR-71 pilot, and a professional keynote speaker, the question I'm most often asked is "How fast would that SR-71 fly?" I can be assured of hearing that question several times at any event I attend. It's an interesting question, given the aircraft's proclivity for speed, but there really isn’t one number to give, as the jet would always give you a little more speed if you wanted it to. It was common to see 35 miles a minute. Because we flew a programmed Mach number on most missions, and never wanted to harm the plane in any way, we never let it run out to any limits of temperature or speed. Thus, each SR-71 pilot had his own individual “high” speed that he saw at some point on some mission. I saw mine over Libya when Khadafy fired two missiles my way, and max power was in order. Let’s just say that the plane truly loved speed and effortlessly took us to Mach numbers we hadn’t previously seen.

So it was with great surprise, when at the end of one of my presentations, someone asked, “what was the slowest you ever flew the Blackbird?” This was a first. After giving it some thought, I was reminded of a story that I had never shared before, and relayed the following.

I was flying the SR-71 out of RAF Mildenhall, England, with my back-seater, Walt Watson; we were returning from a mission over Europe and the Iron Curtain when we received a radio transmission from home base. As we scooted across Denmark in three minutes, we learned that a small RAF base in the English countryside had requested an SR-71 fly-past. The air cadet commander there was a former Blackbird pilot, and thought it would be a motivating moment for the young lads to see the mighty SR-71 perform a low approach. No problem, we were happy to do it. After a quick aerial refueling over the North Sea, we proceeded to find the small airfield.

Walter had a myriad of sophisticated navigation equipment in the back seat, and began to vector me toward the field. Descending to subsonic speeds, we found ourselves over a densely wooded area in a slight haze. Like most former WWII British airfields, the one we were looking for had a small tower and little surrounding infrastructure. Walter told me we were close and that I should be able to see the field, but I saw nothing. Nothing but trees as far as I could see in the haze. We got a little lower, and I pulled the throttles back from 325 knots we were at. With the gear up, anything under 275 was just uncomfortable. Walt said we were practically over the field—yet; there was nothing in my windscreen. I banked the jet and started a gentle circling maneuver in hopes of picking up anything that looked like a field. Meanwhile, below, the cadet commander had taken the cadets up on the catwalk of the tower in order to get a prime view of the fly-past. It was a quiet, still day with no wind and partial gray overcast. Walter continued to give me indications that the field should be below us but in the overcast and haze, I couldn’t see it. The longer we continued to peer out the window and circle, the slower we got. With our power back, the awaiting cadets heard nothing. I must have had good instructors in my flying career, as something told me I better cross-check the gauges. As I noticed the airspeed indicator slide below 160 knots, my heart stopped and my adrenalin-filled left hand pushed two throttles full forward. At this point we weren’t really flying, but were falling in a slight bank. Just at the moment that both afterburners lit with a thunderous roar of flame (and what a joyous feeling that was) the aircraft fell into full view of the shocked observers on the tower. Shattering the still quiet of that morning, they now had 107 feet of fire-breathing titanium in their face as the plane leveled and accelerated, in full burner, on the tower side of the infield, closer than expected, maintaining what could only be described as some sort of ultimate knife-edge pass.

Quickly reaching the field boundary, we proceeded back to Mildenhall without incident. We didn’t say a word for those next 14 minutes. After landing, our commander greeted us, and we were both certain he was reaching for our wings. Instead, he heartily shook our hands and said the commander had told him it was the greatest SR-71 fly-past he had ever seen, especially how we had surprised them with such a precise maneuver that could only be described as breathtaking. He said that some of the cadet’s hats were blown off and the sight of the plan form of the plane in full afterburner dropping right in front of them was unbelievable. Walt and I both understood the concept of “breathtaking” very well that morning, and sheepishly replied that they were just excited to see our low approach.

As we retired to the equipment room to change from space suits to flight suits, we just sat there-we hadn’t spoken a word since “the pass.” Finally, Walter looked at me and said, “One hundred fifty-six knots. What did you see?” Trying to find my voice, I stammered, “One hundred fifty-two.” We sat in silence for a moment. Then Walt said, “Don’t ever do that to me again!” And I never did.

A year later, Walter and I were having lunch in the Mildenhall Officer’s club, and overheard an officer talking to some cadets about an SR-71 fly-past that he had seen one day. Of course, by now the story included kids falling off the tower and screaming as the heat of the jet singed their eyebrows. Noticing our HABU patches, as we stood there with lunch trays in our hands, he asked us to verify to the cadets that such a thing had occurred. Walt just shook his head and said, “It was probably just a routine low approach; they’re pretty impressive in that plane.” Impressive indeed.

Little did I realize after relaying this experience to my audience that day that it would become one of the most popular and most requested stories. It’s ironic that people are interested in how slow the world’s fastest jet can fly. Regardless of your speed, however, it’s always a good idea to keep that cross-check up…and keep your Mach up, too.

Another story, scoping Ghadaffi in Libya.

Thanks for this post. I have been fascinated by the SR-71 since I was 13, and the fly by of the British base was great. I actually got to see an SR-71, almost close enough to touch it, at an airplane museum in the South West. I wish I could remember the name, or even the state it was in so I could recommend it to everyone. It was a great experience.

I'm a USAF veteran, never got to see one, I did listen to a Mig-17 pilot ask and receive permission to shoot down a U-2 over Siberia, he ended up a disapointed jet jockey, I also listened to a jet jocky ask and receive permission to shoot down a C-130 intelligence plane over the White Sea and he was succesful, meaning 13 American airmen lost their lives even though they were over international waters.

Few remerber the slogan; "remember the Pueblo,' even fewer remember that another 13 airmen lost their lives during that incident, shot down over international waters.

Kelly Johnson is/was one heck of a man.

High Flight

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there,
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air. . . .

Up, up the long, delirious burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or ever eagle flew —
And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

And because they fund domestic terrorists who fire-bomb medical research facilities.

USDA lists them as a domestic terror group.

Alas an ally.

(we probably agree on more than we think, I read one of your replies to me in another thread and thought, either my communication skills or nil or your reading comprehension is retarded.) I'll readily admit my communication skills could use some work.

I've been battling these freaks of nature for over forty years.

Their political/theological philosophy is on par with that of Charles Manson.

The only society to enact the stringent animal rights laws they desire is Nazi Germany and we can all pretty much agree on how that social experiment turned out.

Sadly America has gone way too far down that road already.

Not too long ago the FBI listed them as the number one domestic terrorist threat.

If you have the time and since we agree, let's try to keep this thread going for a while, there is a world of information that most people don't know that I would like to bring out.

BTW, they attempt to terrorize many more than just the medical research people, they have burned down feed stores with people sleeping inside etc.

We as a nation have turned over 3 or 400 hundred years of common law by elevating crimes against animals to felony status.

Traditionally a felony offense is only meeted out to those who commit crimes against fellow humans.

I think the problem is that my political views are agnostic (I generally don't have one), so I piss off Democrats, Republicans, and Libertarians alike.

No party hack likes me, which is a disadvantage on heavily partisan message boards.

Patraeus caused quite a flap in the middle east recently when he said the UAE air force would totally take out the Iranian air force in less than two days.

I'm thinking if their is another major terrorist act in America we should nuke Mecca during the hadj.

Then have crop dusters spray pig fat accross Palestine, Syria, Hizbollah occupied areas of Lebanon, Libya, Algeria and other selected areas til we run out of pig fat.

If we run out of pig fat then we could spray peanut oil and tell them it was pig fat!!
