Reality continues to remain at odds with what the Obama administration and State Department is telling the American people. The Latest example comes courtesy of Yemen. Five months after Barack Obama touted U.S. success in Yemen while telling the American people that ‘ISIL is not Islamic’, the U.S. Embassy in Yemen is being closed (h/t […]
Whenever westerners warn of the threat of mass Islamic immigration, they are accused of being Islamophobes and Xenophobes. In the case of the U.S., any time someone suggests that America should construct a wall on its southern border to prevent illegal aliens from traversing that border, they’re labeled as intolerant bigots who lack compassion. The […]
As Barack Obama and Congress was preparing for the State of the Union speech on Tuesday, a coup was taking place in Yemen. The media all but completely ignored this extremely explosive development in a country Obama himself touted as a place where his foreign policy was succeeding. On Wednesday, reports surfaced that the president […]
One day after a ceasefire was agreed to in Yemen between Shiite Houthi rebels and government forces, a coup appears to have taken place, with the government surrendering the Presidential palace to the Houthis.

When Barack Obama released five terrorists from Yemen, it sent a message. That message was that when Paris terrorist Said Kouachi was killed, so too was a terrorist with connections to not only Yemen but to one of Islam’s most revered martyrs – Anwar al-Awlaki.

The consequences of U.S. federal officials allowing Anwar al-Awlaki to slip through their fingers in 2001 are still being felt years later, in much the same way that the consequences of the Obama administration flooding Mexico with high powered weapons in Operation Fast and Furious will be felt for years to come. In the case […]
ISIS has already begun its invasion of Egypt and Libya as Shoebat.com has reported. Its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is now calling for an invasion of Saudi Arabia. Yet, Turkey continues to do very little in the fight against ISIS. The BBC reports: In a 17-minute audio message, purportedly from its elusive leader Abu Bakr […]
The U.S. Embassy in Sana’a, Yemen is reportedly on the brink of needing to be evacuated for reasons similar to why the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli, Libya was abandoned earlier this year; that would be the threat of Muslim jihadists. It wasn’t just two months ago, during his now infamous speech on his ISIS strategy, […]
As ISIS continues its conquest of territory with the help of Turkey, it’s having the effect of surrounding Saudi Arabia in Alamo-esque fashion. To say the Saudis are looking over their shoulder would be an understatement. Their heads are on a collective swivel. In his now infamous speech that included the lie, “ISIL is not […]
This is truly a story that is both amazing and heartbreaking. Nada Al-Ahdal is a young 11 year-old Yemeni girl who fled from her parents because they wanted to ‘marry her off’. What is encouraging is that Nada has the wisdom of an elder and puts the intelligence level of millions of people – all […]
As Walid wrote about here, Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi, the 20 year-old Saudi student who was briefly a ‘person of interest’ in the Boston marathon bombings, comes from a clan that is home to several Al-Qaeda members and former Gitmo detainees. In the case of Muhammad Atiq Uwaid Al-Awufi Al-Harbi (#73), he became the leader […]
It’s quite safe to say that State Department spokesman Victoria Nuland would much rather prefer giving a press conference at which AP reporter Matthew Lee’s chair was empty.
