Peace Like A River


It was a wide river, mistakable for a lake or even an ocean unless you'd been wading and knew its current. Somehow I'd crossed it... Now I saw the stream regrouped below, flowing on through what might've been vineyards, pastures, orhards... It flowed between and alongside the rivers of people; from here it was no more than a silver wire winding toward the city. - Leif Enger, Peace Like A River

The Trojan horse has already been rolled through the gates

On his program last Friday, Hugh Hewitt interviewed Frank Gaffney.

They discussed the terrorist plot recently uncovered in a California prison. This plot, which has received scant attention in the mainstream media (MSM), shows that terrorists are concealed among us, like the Greeks hiding in the Trojan Horse.

Mr. Gaffney says:

they envisioned [attacks] against Israeli targets, specifically, the Israeli Consulate in Los Angeles, the El Al counter, I believe at LAX, several synagogues, and then it was said several National Guard facilities as well.


Mr. Hewitt wonders:

Well, I think, I can't really fathom how the Los Angeles Times has not publicized this.


Mr. Hewitt referred to an article by Daniel Pipes. There, Mr. Pipes gives details of the plot. However, Mr. Pipes writes:

If not for the lucky break of a dropped phone, the jihadists probably would have struck.


Are we simply hoping we don't fall victim to future attacks? As they say in the military, HOPE IS NOT A COURSE OF ACTION!

Pipes refers to a Gaffney article. There, Mr. Gaffney describes how terrorists are being recruited in the prisons. Mr. Gaffney closes with this:

The alleged New Folsom State plot had better rouse us out of our stupor. Like other Western democracies, this country is at war with Islamofascists at home, as well as abroad.


Gaffney wrote here:

If we fail, however, to speak truthfully to the public about the threat both the Muslim world and the West face from our common foe, and to enlist citizens in waging this war fully and effectively, then our only hope may shortly be to ask that God save us.


Do you see the MSM picking up the colors to warn us of the threats that still exist?

If Cassandra were reading the Times today, she would never get worked up enough to warn Troy about accepting the Wooden Horse. She would never know it was there.

    Here is the portion of my comment about the status of the MSM. It was first posted at Mark Tapscott's blog:

    Too many good people have died and will die for this terrible MSM lying to continue. Our local newspaper has carried a spate of twisted stories recently from the 'neutral' (Not!) auspices of the AP (who is quoted at CBS).

    Should these two news organizations be required to register as terrorist fronts? I mean that at least half-seriously. They must be purposefully and defiantly unware of the US fight in the Middle East, for they seemed to determine to advance the enemy. How long should we allow them?

    Whether in Basra or New York, the enemy seems to determine to throttle the power of honest press.

    Note: Basra is cited because it is where a honest voice died in telling the real story. Stephen Vincent will not be the last.

    You write "purposefully and defiantly unware of the US fight in the Middle East"

    Doesn't that just about sum it up? It does seem like many purposefully ignore the successes in the Middle East, the good things that are being done.

    Should anyone be surprised, The Black Muslims are basically just another prison gang.
