Another Sexual Assault in Tahrir Square
1CBS reporter Lara Logan suffered a lengthy and sustained sexual assault in Tahrir Square at a time when Egyptians were supposed to be celebrating (some way of showing jubilation, huh?). She revealed her story to 60 Minutes a few months later.
Bikyamasr reports on another, very similar assault, in the same place:
A foreign woman was stripped and sexually assaulted on Wednesday evening in Egypt’s iconic Tahrir Square, one eyewitness said on Twitter and another confirmed in an email to Bikyamasr.com.
The woman, who’s identity has not been revealed, was taken away in an ambulance after being assaulted for 10 minutes. Her husband reportedly was unable to intervene and witnessed the incident.
“I saw the woman and then dozens of men surrounded her and started grabbing her, when she screamed for help some people came, but they were hit in the face,” wrote one witness.
What happened next was “appalling,” said the trusted witness, who asked for anonymity. “The men just started tearing at her clothes and grabbing her body all over. When she fought back, they pushed her. It was chaos.”
There were unconfirmed reports that the men “violated” her with their hands.
The nationality of the woman is unknown at the current time.
Throughout the day, sexual harassment towards women has been increasing and more and more reports of women being grabbed and groped began being reported.
Again, why is the true nature of this ‘Arab Sping’ being ignored by the media, which is clearly choosing not to do its job?
Ezekiel 33:6 says:
But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, and the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at the watchman’s hand.’
How many Lara Logans must there be?
CNN playing Word Omission Games in Honor Killing case
2CNN is apparently willing to include the words “honor killing” and “conservative Afghan” in its news reports but is unwilling to say that the honor killing was mandated by Islamic teachings or even mention that the murderers were Muslims. Instead, the word “conservative” has the effect of comparing such nasty people with the Christian right in America.
The most tragically ironic aspect of this story is that the man who murdered his daughters and tried to cover it up, said that he killed them because they “betrayed kindness.”
This CNN news report is a must-see for the network’s bias. It fits right in line with the network’s history of running interference for Islamists.

United Nations shocked that Barbarians act like Barbarians
1If there is anything that Wikileaks taught us, it’s that government leaders are not anywhere close to being as ignorant as they’d like us to believe, which makes this latest report that the United Nations is surprised that Muslim Brotherhood-inspired terrorists would torture the people they have rounded up, despicably laughable.
Via the UK Telegraph:
The UN has expressed its alarm over the failure of the Libyan government to disarm militias and stop widespread torture of the thousands of people held in arbitrary detention.
The warning that human rights abuses were rampant in Libya came as Medicins San Frontieres, the medical charity, said it was suspending its operations in detention centres in the city of Misurata after encountering scores of torture victims.
Ian Martin, the UN envoy for Libya, said that the new Libyan authorities were failing to bring armed factions under control. As a result the law of gun dominated a country scarred by the dictatorship of Col Muammar Gaddafi.
Why would the UN be shocked when the informed populace has been warning about this very thing before the ‘Arab Spring’ was even in full bloom?
Remember, Senator John McCain once said the Libyan rebels were his heroes back in April of 2011. Fast forward to the 1:00 mark.
Report: Ayatollah orders Attacks through man whose Colleague visited Oval Office
2Reza Kahlili is reporting that Ayatollah Khameini has ordered the chief commander of the Quds Forces to collaborate with Hezbollah to coordinate terror attacks in response to the assassination of one of Iran’s nuclear scientists. The man Khameini reached out to is very relevant but first, Kahlili’s report.
Via WND:
After the recent assassination of Iranian nuclear scientist Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan, deputy director of the first uranium enrichment facility at Natanz, Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, ordered retaliation.
He instructed Gen. Qasem Soleimani, the chief commander of the Quds Forces, to prepare the ground for terrorist attacks, first to retaliate against assassination and espionage within the Iranian nuclear program, and second, to go on the offensive to make the West understand that any military action against Iran will create much instability in the world.
The Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah will meet with Iranian Quds Forces in Iraq’s Kurdistan region next week to discuss ways to export arms and explosives to Hezbollah cells and strengthen terrorist cells in the Middle East, according to SepahOnline, the media outlet close to the Revolutionary Guards.
Why is Qasem Soleimani so important?
Some might remember that we wrote about a man named Hadi al-Ameri last month, in reference to his ties to Iran and terrorism in light of the red carpet treatment he received from the White House. One of the articles used in our research was from an Arabic translation from 2005. It revealed a close connection between al-Ameri and Qasem Soleimani.
Via URUKnet:
Hadi Farhan Abdullah Al Ameri, known as “Abu Hassan Al Ameri”, is currently leading Badr Organization and is one of the figures that are directly connected to the Iranian Al Quds Brigade.
Al Ameri’s journey started with the Shiite opposition, by the beginning of the 80s, when he left Iraq to Jordan, where he remained for a few days before moving to Syria. In Syria, he contacted the Supreme Council and he was transported to Iran. He spent all the following years there.
Al Ameri holds the Iranian nationality under the name of Hassan Ameri and his wife is Iranian. He usually visits Iran and meets with Qassem Sulaimani, the head of Al Quds Brigade, under the Iranian guard forces, on a regular basis.
While being in Iran, Al Ameri played a role in torturing the Iraqi prisoners, who were captured by Iran during the Iraqi-Iranian war. Prisoners who returned from there accuse him of being the cruelest against them. This role helped him to reach the status that he occupies in the eyes of the Iranians.
Here is a screen shot from the Fox News report on al-Ameri’s White House visit.

Latest News on Egyptian Crisis
1Another great article from our friends at Bare Naked Islam:
Muslim Brotherhood spokesperson Mahmoud Ghezlan told the Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper that the militant group will neither speak nor meet with Israeli officials. He added that the Brotherhood’s stance on Israel is unwavering and not up for discussion.
ORIGINAL STORY: obama-will-speed-up-the-pace-of-us-taypayers-money-sent-to-the-muslim-brotherhood-in-egypt
The Blaze “It’s illogical to have dialogue, any dialogue, in light of the Israeli practices against the Arab peoples,” the paper quoted Ghezlan as saying.
Meanwhile, in the spirit of cooperation, Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesperson Yigal Palmor told Israeli radio that Israel has not ruled out talks.
Egypt Independent adds:
The Muslim Brotherhood’s Freedom and Justice Party controls 47 percent of the seats in the newly formed People’s Assembly, but the ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces is still running the executive branch of Egypt’s government.
Some fear that Islamists will push for ending the 1979 peace treaty between Egypt and Israel. American officials met with several Muslim Brotherhood and Islamist leaders after People’s Assembly elections.
Ghezlan said the Brotherhood has not yet received a similar invitation from the Israeli Embassy in Cairo, but that any such request would be rejected.
Egypt’s banned Muslim Brotherhood movement has unveiled its plans to scrap a peace treaty with Israel if it comes to power, a deputy leader said in an interview with NHK TV. Rashad al-Bayoumi said the peace treaty with Israel will be abolished after a provisional government is formed by the movement and other Egypt’s opposition parties. ”After President Mubarak steps down and a provisional government is formed, there is a need to dissolve the peace treaty with Israel,” al-Bayoumi said. Egypt was the first Arab country to officially recognize Israel and sign a peace agreement with the Israeli government in 1979. It is also a major mediator of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
