Brussels jihad attacker identified as also involved in November Paris jihad massacre
Authorities had four months after the Paris jihad massacre to apprehend this man. They did not. Where was he? It is likely that, like Salah Abdeslam, he was hiding in Muslim communities, where he could be confident that no one would turn him in to police. That likelihood ought to be instructive to authorities in […]

Brussels jihadis plotting a NUCLEAR BOMB ATTACK

binladennuclearBelgian nuclear power plants were evacuated after Brussels jihad terror attack yesterday. Here’s why.

The Times is reporting that the religion of peaceniks were planning a nuclear attack:
Brussels cell ‘was plotting radioactive bomb attack’
Eleven Belgian nuclear workers have had their work pas ses revoked amid fears that the Brussels bombers were plotting to build a radiological dirty bomb.
Ibrahim and Khalid el-Bakraoui, the brothers suspected of suicide strikes on Brussels airport and Metro, are believed to have been involved in an Islamic State plan to create a bomb to scatter radioactive material over a populated area.
A senior Belgian nuclear industry official was secretly filmed by jihadists late last year, according to...
     
For the past several years, Idaho lawmakers have rejected every attempt to bring Obamacare’s Medicaid expansion to the Gem State. Earlier this year, they rejected two expansion plans that were so unpopular, they failed to even earn a committee vote. But with the legislative session winding down, there’s another last-minute, backdoor attempt to expand Medicaid on the horizon.

The latest plan, dubbed the “Idaho Accountable Care Waiver Act,” would require the state to “provide for managed Medicaid services” to a new class of able-bodied adults. Although the legislation nominally limits its Medicaid expansion to able-bodied adults below the poverty line, it immediately thereafter says that the expansion shall be “in accordance with” Obamacare’s Medicaid expansion provisions.

Under federal law and regulatory guidance from the Obama administration, the only way for an expansion to be “in accordance with” those provisions is to expand Medicaid to all able-bodied adults earning less than 138% of the federal poverty level. The enhanced federal funding available under those provisions can only be received if a state expands Medicaid under Obamacare.

Given this dynamic, the Obama administration would likely press Idaho into either footing an even larger share of the expansion costs or raising eligibility even further.

And the current language appears to give the welfare agency the authority to expand further: the legislation both requires and authorizes the agency to take any and all “actions necessary to implement” the expansion plan. Does that include expanding eligibility “in accordance with” Obamacare and beyond the poverty line threshold specified in the bill? It certainly seems that way.
With a brokered convention looking increasingly likely, don’t assume the final battle would come down to Cruz, Trump, and Kasich. That, at least, is what Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker believes.

“I think if it’s an open convention, it’s very likely it would be someone who’s not currently running,” he told The Capital Times of Wisconsin on Thursday.

"I mean, who knows. The one thing I qualify — it’s like the qualifications you see on those ads you see for car dealerships. I think any of us who comment on this election have to qualify that almost every prediction’s been off, so it’s hard to predict anything,” Walker continued.
Walker’s own campaign for the White House ended quickly, with him dropping out two months after he announced his candidacy. At the time, Walker was running low on campaign funds and performing poorly in opinion polls, particularly in Iowa, where he was once seen as the favorite.
Donald Trump currently has a 274-delegate lead over rival Ted Cruz, with 739 delegates to Cruz’s 465. John Kasich has 143 delegates.
Trump would need to win nearly 500 more delegates to clinch the nomination. But it is possible that none of the remaining candidates will reach that 1,237-delegate majority before the Republican National Convention in July.
Walker hasn’t yet endorsed a candidate, but many suspect he will throw his support behind Sen. Ted Cruz ahead of The Badger State’s primary on April 5.

“Sen. Cruz, Ted Cruz, is the only one who’s got a chance other than Donald Trump to win the nomination,” Walker said in a recent radio interview.

No balance of power in Obama’s America

/ Personal Liberty Digest

The Obama administration bypassed Congress and secretly created more than 1,000 new rules and regulations last year, according to a new watchdog report.

After a scathing report in The Washington Post, the Obama administration was forced in 2014 to publically acknowledge it was abusing balance of power by initiating new regulations without congressional input.

At the time, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) Administrator Howard Shelanski apologized for the administration’s disregard for the Congressional Review Act, which requires agencies to present new regulations to lawmakers for review.

“I absolutely agree that agencies should uphold their obligations to report these rules,” he testified.

But the American Action Forum, which keeps tabs on government regulatory schemes, says that Obama officials have fallen short on that promise.

In fact, the problem has gotten worse.

The American Action Forum reports that it discovered “955 rules weren’t sent to GAO in 2014 and roughly 1,069 weren’t reported in 2015.”

That means last year, at least one third of the 3,408 new government rules to hit the books were issued with little public knowledge and no congressional input.

Police Have Uncovered The Sinister Plot The Brussels Bombers Had In The Works

By: Editorial Staff / AMERICAN MILITARY NEWS

Thanks to a cabbie’s watchful eye and quick thinking, he was able to alert police to the Brussels apartment in which he picked up brothers Ibrahim and Khalid El Bakraoui, before anyone else got inside.

What they found was downright jarring. The two brothers were in the midst of plotting to make a nuclear dirty bomb that would spread radioactive material all over the city. These plans either were scrapped due to the arrest of Salah Abdeslam which caused the brothers to hastily enter into a suicide mission, or were to be carried out later by Najim Laachraoui, the bomb maker who is still at large.

The most concerning part of these plans was how they planned to get the radioactive material. Authorities discovered that the brothers had planted a camera outside the home of a director of a Belgian nuclear plant. The camera monitored his comings and goings, leading police to believe they were planning an abduction.

Most likely, they would have forced him to grant them entry into a location where they could get a hold of these materials which they would then strap to a bomb and detonate in the city.

Police are still on the hunt for both Laachraoui and one other individual said to have a role in the attacks. Thus far 6 people have been arrested in conjunction with the attacks.

Friday, Belgian police performed several raids which lead to explosions, gunfire and one arrest.
Op-ed: 
On Brussels, Terrorism, and Obama
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on http://www.americanpbn.com/

“This is my No. 1 priority...“I’ve got a lot of things on my plate, but my top priority is to defeat ISIL, and to eliminate the scourge of this barbaric terrorism.” 
- Barack HUSSEIN Obama's reading a teleprompted response to the recent ISIS terrorist attacks in Brussels

While designated terrorist group CAIR whines and throws a tantrum about presidential candidate Ted Cruz saying there is need for more “enhanced surveillance” of muslims here in America in the wake of last week's ISIS admitted terrorist attacks in Brussels, our president, Barack HUSSEIN Obama, dedicated an entire 59 seconds or so to remarks about said attacks, as he was too busy kissing Raul Castro's butt at a baseball in game in Cuba, before hurrying off to do the tango in Argentina.

Turning his back on Belgium, a NATO partner and ally, these actions should not be unexpected as this is the very same man who went golfing right after he gave our nation's 'official' but so not heartfelt condolences on national television to the family of James Foley...the captured American journalist whose head ISIS cut off and then sent the unspeakable act, via video, over the internet for all the world to see...for all the world to learn and to fear the true horror that is ISIS.

And last Tuesday’s terrorist attacks in Brussels...simultaneous triple bombing attacks taking place six miles apart from each other, two at the airport in Brussels and one at the main downtown train station...were the third major terror attack on European soil in just over a year. Preceded by two attacks in Paris...the January 2015 Charlie Hebdo and Hyper Cacher kosher supermarket attacks, and the attacks at the Bataclan theater and soccer stadium in the French capital last November. And by basically shunning the people of Brussels let's not forget that this is the same man who did not attend the 'Solidarity March' where world leaders locked arms together in support of eliminating terrorism... most specifically islamic terrorism...after the above said horrific Charlie Hebdo Massacre that left over 20 dead...a massacre done simply because of magazine cartoons depicting the pedophile 'so-called' prophet mohamed upset the islamists oh so-delicate sensibilities.

And now ISIS has stated that they have over 400 operatives in Europe ready to strike again...and to strike again soon...to help assure that Europe sets its time clock back 1400+ years to the year 632 when islam began.

And with the qur'an and its 109 verses that call muslims to go to war with all nonbelievers for the sake of islamic rule...for the sake of assuring that we infidels submit to their 'made-up' god known as allah...including qur'anic verse (2:191-193) "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out” and Sura (9:5) ”...slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captive and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush...” know these are just two of the many verses of which the kumbaya sorts and bleeding heart liberals sadly still refuse to believe or accept as islamic truth.

And now we have the likes of Barack HUSSEIN Obama warning 'We the People' not to fall into the trap of condemning and retaliating against 'so-called' moderate muslims here in our country...you know the very muslims who refuse to condemn these or any acts of terror perpetrated on Westerners or on Middle East Christians for that matter. In fact, the majority of muslims, both here in the U.S. and abroad, actually condone these acts...actually celebrate these acts...for remember their silence remains deafening...all while they continue to claim that these acts of terror are justified revenge for their self-perceived ongoing killing of muslims worldwide.

Now sadly Obama's words stated upon hearing of the Brussels attack are even more chilling...more telling...for he stated that neither ISIS nor their acts should be allowed to disrupt Americans’ lives, including his own...uncaring selfish bastard that he is. Still refusing to say the words 'islamic terrorism' for fear of crossing and drawing the wrath and ire of his brethren, this most traitorous of presidents went about his merry way traipsing through Cuba and Argentina, turning a blind eye to the fact that not only were Europeans murdered that day but so were four Americans with a dozen others injured including an American military family...Americans who, at the time of this writing, still have not had their names released to the public...on just whose orders I wonder.

So instead of immediately returning home to orchestrate America's response to the attack on our NATO partner, especially with Brussels being the home of NATO headquarters, and with U.S. European Command and NATO now on high alert, Obama's lackluster response becomes even more telling of where his true loyalties lie. And while Jens Soltenberg, Secretary General of the NATO alliance, stated that, "We have decided to increase the alert state at NATO Headquarters. We remain vigilant and continue to monitor the situation very closely," Obama basically turned his and America's back on NATO and on Brussels...shades of his turning our country's back on Israel I would say.

So while world leaders unite to condemn the Brussels attack...just as they did after the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris...still in shock Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel described the attacks as a “black moment for our country,” while Britain's David Cameron calling on the world to “stand together” to defeat terrorism as Britain ramps up police presence and security checks at key transport hubs while his government is looking at increasing the number of armed response units available in the event of an attack in the UK. And while French President Francois Hollande said the deadly blasts had struck at “the whole of Europe,” adding that, "This war against terrorism needs to be carried out with cold blood," France has now deployed an extra 1,600 police officers to border crossings and air, sea and rail infrastructures including adding enhanced security measures at the UK-Belgium and UK-French borders.

And what is Barack HUSSEIN Obama doing while Europe basically gears up for all out war against islamic terrorism...a war we here in this country should be standing strong and united with our European counterparts as a secure Europe translates into a secure America...first, instead of increasing NATO spending and our military presence in Europe, Obama has basically cut our European presence by about 30% during his two terms in office, manpower needed to aid NATO in it's fight against the muslim invasion of Europe...and yes it is an invasion...and second, Obama has started the process of bringing into this country thousands of unable to be vetted 'so-called' Syrian refugees...male refugees primarily of military age whose loyalties and allegiances come very much into question.

Treason on all accounts I would say...treason as response to the bombings continues to come in from Turkey, Israel, and Putin's Russia. Turkish officials claim to have warned Belgium officials not once but twice about the terrorist ties of Ibrahim el-Bakraoui, one of the suicide bombers. And it's now being reported that Israeli intelligence agencies sent specific warnings to Belgium authorities about an immanent attack on the Belgium train station, but what was ignored by European intel agencies was the fact that intel of that type should automatically have been expanded to include airports as well, and it wasn't. And Russia's response included condolences to Belgium of course as well as expressing solidarity to join in the fight against islamic terrorism. However, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Maria Zakharova said that the West's politics of 'double standards' had led to terrorist attacks, and that the “frozen diplomatic relations between NATO and Russia” have slowed the fight against terrorism.

Led to the terrorist attacks and slowed the fight against terrorism Russia claims forgetting that not too long ago one of their own commercial jets was shot out of the sky by islamic terrorists killing all aboard. And while muslim sympathizers continue to make excuses for the terror acts now engulfing Europe saying they are a most legitimate response to grievances against the West...and most specifically justification against America...Barack HUSSEIN Obama's lack of serious response has America aligning with the enemy instead of with our allies even though he knows well that more attacks are coming...and coming soon...with the next 'big one' saved for American soil.

So the only question that remains is will that attack happen while Obama dances the night away or will it happen while he kisses more Castro butt...or will Obama get his brethren to wait until the next president takes over so as to keep his legacy safe. A distinct possibility but at what price...Europe cannot take much more as his brethren overwhelm their borders...as his brethren destroy the very civilization from which America was born.
