Iran – Remember that Nuclear program they halted? Not entirely accurate….

February 8, 2008 Aurvant 2 comments

Looks like the DNI is distancing himself from his own organizations assessment of the Iranian nuclear program.

Turns out that the piece that we all heard about in the news was not speaking about the entire program initiative that the Mainstream media had wanted you to think. They were only speaking about the construction of nuclear warheads….which is just a single step in the process of making the weapons.

Here, just read this:

Mr. McConnell was referring to the specific Iranian program to design potential nuclear warheads, which the December estimate said had halted in 2003. But in his opening testimony, Mr. McConnell noted that two other components of the nuclear program were moving ahead — the enrichment of uranium, which he said was the most difficult part of making a bomb, and the development of long-range missiles capable of hitting North Africa and Europe.

Ya’ don’t say?! Have anything else to add Mr. McConnell?

Yesterday, Mr. McConnell struck a different tone. “Declared uranium enrichment efforts, which will enable the production of fissile material, continue. This is the most difficult challenge in nuclear production. Iran’s efforts to perfect ballistic missiles that can reach North Africa and Europe also continue.”

He went on, “We remain concerned about Iran’s intentions and assess with moderate-to-high confidence that Tehran at a minimum is keeping open the option to develop nuclear weapons.

Wow, how did the Mainstream not pick up on this little nugget? You think the Today show or MSNBC or CNN will send this news on down the pipeline? AND tarnish their good name?

Never.

Guess the MSM hit pieces will continue to roll on down the line while the truth stays out here in obscurity in the blogosphere.

Backlash! – Archbishop of Canterbury calls for Sharia law in Britain….church freaks out!

And rightfully so.

I have said and thought for years that the Rowan Williams was an absolute pitiful leader of the Church of England and his comments over the years have backed up my claims. Now, as if this was shocking to everyone else but me, he comes out and says that people should recognize Sharia law and that is how they should govern their own lives.  So, what will he say when the spousal abuse statistic skyrockets because of all the “admonishing” that the Sharia law followers commit on their wives?

Here’s some reactions to his comments:

In an astonishing attack, one senior Church of England clergyman demanded Dr Rowan Williams step down immediately and branded him “gullible”.

Meanwhile, the Bishop of Rochester, the Rt Rev Dr Michael Nazir-Ali, claimed it would be “simply impossible” to introduce Sharia law in Britain.

Hmmm…does Mr. Nazir-Ali have anything else to day?

Today he claimed that Sharia would be “in tension” with current laws, including the rights of women.

Dr Nazir-Ali, who holds dual British and Pakistani citizenship, also added that Muslim women’s groups had blocked an attempt to introduce Sharia in marriage dispute cases in Canada.

Debates on Sharia “are not an argument for disturbing the integrity of a legal tradition which is rooted in the quite different moral and spiritual vision deriving from the Bible,” he concluded.

In a separate attack, a clergyman identified only as a long-standing member of the Church’s governing body the General Synod, told The Times that many people had now lost confidence in the Archbishop.

(Added emphasis) Yeah, thats exactly what I had thought. Despite the facts that Sharia law is in direct opposition to the type of moral standards of the Bible is it also in direct opposition to the rights of women who probably don’t think that being flogged and verbally abused is what constitutes as a “good date”.

As for the whole “people have lost confidence in the Archbishop” comment….really? Did it take you people this long to figure out that the guy is nothing but a deceptive appeaser to other standards and beliefs? If he wants to make comments like that he needs to step down from the position he holds and leave the Church of England because his type of destructive rhetoric is not welcome there.

And to be honest? I denounce him completely. To think that a man who is the leader of the Church of England would allow such laws to be recognized that would put many women in danger and others as well. Shameful.

Just. freakin’. Shameful.
