The Amboy Times

What I did on my Summer vacation

I'm back.

Well, it wasn't a real vacation. There were no travails to exotic locations or quiet retreats. I just had to step away from blogging for a while is all. About three months of no terrorism, tax hikes, clueless pols or natural disasters. Damned selfish of me doncha think?

When I was online I kept it light. Following just the basic news and spending most of my time in a non-political realm. As a result, I have a lot of catching up to do. It took me about an hour to clear out my mail box and manage the three month backlog of comments.

Yes I'm back, taking a wrecking ball to totaltarianism.

Amboy Celebrates it's 3rd Year

On this day, January 23, 2006, the original Amboy put up it's first post.

To all of my blogging buddies who've supported and encouraged me...

Thank you.

 

First round's on me.

How Sad...the BNP was here

I've been getting a lot of unwanted traffic from the BNP website. My references show that the List of Things that Offend Muslims has been linked there. I have refuted the BNP on this blog before and will continue to do so. Anyone who thinks that the list is racially motivated has no understanding of what I am doing. So, if you are visiting here from a neo-Nazi website then please go elsewhere, or better yet change your way of thinking.

Letting the counter-jihad movement be guided by the BNP is just substituting one form of oppression with another. In short, Euro-fascism is no alternative.

The List is about religious extremists who's totalitarian view is all too similar to what Nick Griffin and his toadies would like to accomplish. Thus the term, Islamo-fascist. This blog will never support the BNP because the face of the real counter-Jihad is of every color and demands freedom without prejudice. 

For inspiration, the List looks to...

Robert Spencer

Father Zakariah

Rev Masih

 

Walid Shoebat

Ayaan Hirsi-Ali

Dr Wafa Sultan

 and Michelle Malkin.

Now there's a group I can be proud of.

LGF vs Jihad Watch

Great... A rift in the anti-jihad movement. We need this like we need to be divided and conquered.  Charles Johnson of LGF has purged Jihad Watch from his blog and condemned Andrew Bostom as well.

I'm sorry to say that my old friend Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs has written this:

I'm done with Robert Spencer. And very, very disappointed in him.

And:

Jihad Watch and Dhimmi Watch are out of our RSS feeds. I'm not going to support people who link to vile sites like Gates of Vienna and Brussels Journal.

He also wrote me, asking me to take down the "Designed by Little Green Footballs" logo that had been up on this site.

What heinous crime have I committed? Last month I restored the links here to Gates of Vienna and Brussels Journal, after speaking with Baron Bodissey, Paul Belien, and Geert Wilders in Washington, and wrote that I doubted that Fjordman was a neofascist or race supremacist.

Of course, for many, many months my list of links has carried this disclaimer: "Note: Listing here does not imply endorsement of every view expressed at every linked site." One might have thought that my linking to both LGF and Gates of Vienna was indicative of an openness to perspectives even from people who disagreed with one another and also with whom I might disagree, and not a blanket endorsement of either one or any other site. That, however, was too subtle for some LGF commenters, who dressed me up in jackboots right away, accusing me of an "apparent embrace of the neo-Nazi movement" and claiming that I support genocide.

I have no tolerance for Nazis either, in fact, it's a form of fascism we're fighting. But Johnson's excessive zeal in purging extremists by association smacks of McCarthyism.

Just for fun, let's follow his logic...

Doesn't LGF's long term association with Jihad Watch and similar sites bring up an air of suspicious and even subversive activity?

Does Mr Johnson think he can fool us all by pretending he suddenly figured out what's really going on here? That he's suddenly cast off his evil supremest skin by deleting a link to Jihad Watch?

Does Mr Johnson own any of Robert Spencer's books, or did he burn them all in a manner approved by the Central Scrutinizer? We require detailed reports of methods, timing and a list of party approved witnesses.

In fact, Charles Johnson is a very suspiciously common name. An alias perhaps? What's he really hiding?

I demand a full investigation...are you now or have you ever been a reader of Jihad Watch?

Better yet, read this instead.

Bloggers on the Radio

Those of you who have heard the Gathering Storm Radio show are probably not surprised to read that AOW, Cassandra USA, Pamela Geller, Pastorius, and WC are now hosting "Voices of Freedom," a one-hour weekly show on KFNX 1100.

Gathering Storm has featured such guests as Robert Spencer and Walid Shoebat.

The show is very well done and no doubt the reason AOW and company are now hitting the big time.

Political Pistachio Threatened

Political Pistachio has returned after receiving threats. Here's his post in part.

I realize that individual idiots do not always represent a whole group. Nonetheless, notes delivered to my doorstep referencing my blog and radio show with threatening messages toward me and my wife, broken windows, black markers applied to my conservative and Christian bumper stickers, prank calls (on my show and at home) recommending I receive gay activities up my south end, and comments that I am guilty of "hate crimes," are only coming from the left side of the political spectrum. And if you go to You Tube and enter Political Pistachio in the search window, below the top video (which is X-Dhimmi Deb's fantastic video of my position on the Second Amendment) is a whole line of Muslim Videos (with Political Pistachio Radio in the description).

It is fair to say I have made my share of political enemies.

But when threats are hand delivered to my home, it makes me a little skittish.

The authorities claim that the attack is nothing more than a prank, or a minor case of harassment.

Looking back on the situation, if I made any mistakes, it was shutting everything down like I did. I allowed those that wish to silence me to do exactly that. They got to me. They got my goat, as my dad would say. They pushed my buttons, and filled me with fear. Not fear for myself, but fear for the safety of those that I love.

Support freedom of speech, stop by Political Pistachio.

Satire of a Hoax

Last month I wrote a satire called Superior Carbon Neutral Humans Discovered. It was based on a BBC article that claimed that an undiscovered tribe was threatened by illegal logging. The joke was that a fictional scientist admires a the tribe's tiny carbon footprints so much that he deems the superior in their technological advancement.

Now it turns out that the BBC story was a hoax.

Even in an age when cynical sleuths can hyper-analyze stories for truth and accuracy, the occasional hoax still slips through the cracks. Such was the case with a so-called "lost Amazon tribe."

 A few months ago, mainstream news outlets (including, ahem, Yahoo!) reported that a photographer had found a lost tribe of warriors near the Brazilian-Peruvian border. Photos of the tribe backed up his claim.

As it turns out, the story is only half true. The men in the photo are members of a tribe, but it certainly ain't "lost." In fact, as the photographer, José Carlos Meirelles, recently explained, authorities have known about this particular tribe since 1910. The photographer and the agency that released the pictures wanted to make it seem like they were members of a lost tribe in order to call attention to the dangers the logging industry may have on the group.

The photographer recently came clean, and news outlets, perhaps embarrassed at having been taken for a ride, have been slow to pick up the story. Now, the word is starting to spread and articles in the Buzz are picking up steam. Expect a lot more brutal truth in the coming days.

I wonder if Meirelles is going to lose his job over this? If not, should we really expect the "brutal truth"? He's a government official in the Indian affairs department, deliberately lying to the press. In the original BBC article, Meirelles scolds us all with his self righteous indignation.  

He described the threats to such tribes and their land as "a monumental crime against the natural world" and "further testimony to the complete irrationality with which we, the 'civilised' ones, treat the world".

I question the rationality of Meirelles' ends justifying the means.

I'm not part of the News Media

I found this fun little quote at Newsbusters, via Hot Air Headlines.

And then these nitwits at home with their computers, these bloggers, who [snorts] think they're part of the news media, can then accuse us of being soft on this candidate or that candidate.

Those are the words of Mike Barnicle. You can examine Barnicle's unbiased reporting in the video  along with the rest of the crack reporting team at MSNBC.

NB-Note: It was the Purple Avenger at Ace of Spades who apparently broke the story of Obama's Auschwitz confusion and Michelle Malkin who helped get it out. Keep up the good work, and maybe someday you too can be members of the real news media. You know, the kind that work at papers like the Washington Post, so straitened even its most venerable columnist is accepting a buy-out.

Someone has to keep the record straight, just ask Dan Rather.

Two Cheers for Australia

Two of my favorite bloggers praised Australia today. Most of us tend to have fond thoughts of the Land Down Under, with it's fascinating wildlife and colorful characters like Steve Irwin and Paul Hogan. But now it is time to consider how important Australia is as an ally.

Angel, of Woman Honor Thyself, tells us about  Aussie PM Kevin Rudd's condemnation of Iran.

The Australian government is preparing to prosecute Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in the International Court of Justice for inciting hatred against Israel.

Australia is the only country in the world pursuing Iran’s leader for allegedly “inciting genocide” and denying the holocaust.

Great Satan's Girlfriend brings us Aussie Homage.

Great Satan's crazy cool cuzzes from down under yonder pretty much blew through dissing smokescreens and pointed out yet another smoking raison d' etre' for the nom de guerre of Great Satan. It's very sweet to know that in these crunk and disorderly times - the spiritual sons of Gallipoli and El Alamein are with us all the way.

She goes on to quote this article.

The need to paint Americans as a greedy, selfish, war-mongering superpower cannot be disturbed by facts. It matters not that, in the year before the tsunami, the US provided $2.4 billion in humanitarian relief: 40per cent of all the relief aid given to the world in 2003. Never mind that development and emergency relief rose from $10 billion during the last year of Bill Clinton's administration to $24 billion under George W. Bush in 2003. Or that, according to a German study, Americans contribute to charities nearly seven times as much a head as Germans do. Or that, adjusted for population, American philanthropy is more than two-thirds more than British giving.

There is a teenaged immaturity about the rest of the world's relationship with the US. Whenever a serious crisis erupts somewhere, our dependence on the US becomes obvious, and many hate the US because of it. That the hatred is irrational is beside the point.

(...)

No country has as many or as strident critics - internally and externally - as
the US. The US actually promotes such debate. But just occasionally we should
moderate that criticism when circumstances demand a dose of fairness.

Indeed, why not break into a standing ovation every now and again? As more US
C-130s and helicopters stand waiting on Burma's doorstep, desperate to help a
shattered populace and stymied only by an appalling anti-US regime, this is one
of those times.
Let's hear it for America.

And Australia.
