‘Soldier of Allah’ Faces up to 10 Years in Prison for Arsenal

New information has come to light on a Detroit-area Muslim convert who was building an arsenal of weapons and ammunition, all funded by a radical imam in Maryland.

The Detroit jihadist, 30-year-old Sebastian Gregerson, has been behind bars since last summer and is awaiting sentencing, but the imam who bankrolled his arsenal still walks free.

Gregerson, according to FBI filings in U.S. district court in Detroit last week, has now been linked to at least one other jihadist, 26-year-old Yusuf Wehelie, who was born in Minnesota to parents who migrated to the U.S. compliments of the United Nations-U.S. State Department refugee resettlement program.

Wehelie had traveled to the Middle East and boasted to undercover FBI agents that he had thought through plans to blow up a military recruitment center in Virginia if he could not join ISIS.

Gregerson was nearly as ambitious in his plans to become a “soldier” for Allah. (Read more from “‘Soldier of Allah’ Faces up to 10 Years in Prison for Arsenal” HERE)

Sheriff Joe Asks If Trump Pardon Is Real

The first thing former Maricopa County, Arizona, Sheriff Joe Arpaio asked when he was told he had received a presidential pardon for contempt of court over going beyond what a judge set as a limit for chasing down potential criminals was whether or not it was fake.

He said, after all, that he was experienced in fake government documents.

According to the Arizona Republic newspaper, Arpaio’s lawyer, Mark Golden, delivered an emailed copy of Friday’s presidential pardon to Arpaio while the former sheriff was celebrating at a birthday event for his wife, Ava.

The pardon reads: “I, Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America, To all to whom these presents shall come, greeting: Be it known that this day, I, Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, pursuant to my powers under Article II, Section 2, Clause 1, of the Constitution, have granted unto Joseph M. Arpaio a full and unconditional pardon.”

Arpaio’s response, the report said, “Is this a fake?” (Read more from “Sheriff Joe Asks If Trump Pardon Is Real” HERE)

Controversial Black Lives Matter Comment Results in Suspension of University Professor

An Arizona university professor has been suspended over controversial comments he made about Black Lives Matter activists nearly a year ago.

Professor Toby Jennings of Grand Canyon University ignited a firestorm recently after the university posted a link to a ministry forum from last September in which he said that some members in the Black Lives Matter group “should be hung.”

“They are saying things that are not helpful in any shape or form or human dignity or flourishing,” the African-American professor said during the forum, which was videotaped.

GCU officials told Fox 10 Phoenix that Jennings was advised that his comments during the forum, called “God’s concern for the poor: What’s missing in social justice,” were offensive, but it was not brought up to the school’s top executives.

However, members of the Black Lives Matter movement were outraged when it was shared recently. (Read more from “Controversial Black Lives Matter Comment Results in Suspension of University Professor” HERE)

Trump Plans to Lift Obama-Era Ban on Giving Local Police Military Equipment

The Trump administration will bring back the movement of surplus military equipment to local law enforcement.

Documents obtained by Fox News reveal President Trump will sign an executive order reversing an Obama-era policy which restricted local police agencies’ ability to get access to gear such as armored personnel carriers, grenade launchers and other military-grade equipment.

Trump’s executive order will restore “The full scope of a longstanding program for recycling surplus, lifesaving gear from the Department of Defense.”

The document continues, “The gear recycled through the Department of Defense’s 1033 program includes everything from ammunition and vehicles to office supplies… Under that program, assets that would otherwise be scrapped can be repurposed to help state, local, and tribal law enforcement better protect public safety and reduce crime.”

The policy change will be announced by Attorney General Jeff Sessions during a speech to the national conference of the Fraternal Order of Police in Nashville, according to a source familiar with the plan.

BBC Promotes Putting Lithium in Drinking Water to Combat Dementia

Researchers in Denmark believe that we should add lithium to drinking water because studies show it may reduce dementia.

You simply can’t make this up. Adding fluoride, a neurotoxin, according to The Lancet medical journal, to our water isn’t enough.

The BBC reported that a study, at the University of Copenhagen, looked at the medical records of 73,731 Danish people with dementia and 733,653 without the mental disease.

They then tested the tap water in 151 areas of the country and some how these “experts” came to the conclusion that lithium, which is an alkaline metal, is good for the brain’s health at certain concentrations to prevent dementia.

The results, published in JAMA Psychiatry, alleged to show moderate lithium levels (between 5.1 and 10 micrograms per litre) increased the risk of dementia by 22% compared with low levels (below five micrograms per litre).

However, the article continues to say that the scientists found “drinking water with the highest lithium levels (above 15 micrograms per litre) had a 17% reduction in risk.”

The researchers said:

This is the first study, to our knowledge, to investigate the association between lithium in drinking water and the incidence of dementia.

Higher long-term lithium exposure from drinking water may be associated with a lower incidence of dementia.

What’s failed to be mentioned in the article is that lithium is used as an additive to extend the life and performance of alkaline batteries and in autogenous welding and brass welding, as well as having well-known harmful long-term side effects.

Lentech listed the risk of lithium exposure, especially noting the inhaling/ingestion of lithium:

Effects of exposure to Lithium: Fire: Flammable. Many reactions may cause fire or explosion. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. Explosion: Risk of fire and explosion on contact with combustible substances and water. Inhalation: Burning sensation. Cough. Laboured breathing. Shortness of breath. Sore throat. Symptoms may be delayed. Skin: Redness. Skin burns. Pain. Blisters. Eyes: Redness. Pain. Severe deep burns. Ingestion: Abdominal cramps. Abdominal pain. Burning sensation. Nausea. Shock or collapse. Vomiting. Weakness.

Effects of short-term exposure: The substance is corrosive to the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. Corrosive on ingestion. Inhalation of the substance may cause lung oedema. The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation is therefore essential. Immediate administration of an appropriate spray, by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered.

This comes after the Environmental Working Group, an environment watchdog, released a searchable database of all the harmful chemicals in our drinking water and surprise, surprise lithium was included in that list.

The group noted that “ingesting too much lithium can lead to symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting.”

Still, the medical community wants to try to push adding lithium to our water because they believe it will help depression. There is no better word to describe such an idea other than insanity.

“In high doses, or even at low doses in some people, lithium can be toxic, so it is important that people consult with their doctor before they consider taking it as a supplement,” James Pickett, of the Alzheimer’s Society charity told New Scientist.

He’s exactly right; everyone’s body has a different chemical make-up, which is why you shouldn’t put foreign chemicals into your body because no person’s body reacts the same.

Lithium was also included in early recipes of the soda 7UP but was not included in the final product.

Another study found that “exposure to lithium via drinking water and other environmental sources may affect the thyroid function,” stressing the need to screen water for lithium. (For more from the author of “BBC Promotes Putting Lithium in Drinking Water to Combat Dementia” please click HERE)

The Establishment and Antifa Go Hand in Hand

Antifa violence broke out once again in Berkeley, California, this weekend.

On Sunday, a small number of supporters of President Trump decided to gather in the left-wing college town following the cancellation of two similar demonstrations in the area the day before. The reason for the cancellations was due to the large number of violent threats the pro-Trump organizers received.

The day Trump supporters actually showed up in the Bay Area gave leftists the chance to make good on their threats.

The scenes on the ground in Berkeley showed black-masked, red flag-waving thugs taking over the city and assaulting anyone they deemed to be a Nazi. It was a stark contrast to the heroic image Antifa has earned from journalists and politicians in the weeks since the violence in Charlottesville.

Confessed Killer Wants Fewer Restrictions on His Freedom

Former al-Qaida terrorist and confessed killed Omar Khadr is going back to Canadian court to seek fewer restrictions on his freedom.

According to the Canadian Press, Khadr wants his bail conditions changed so that he can move anywhere in Canada, have complete access to the internet, and visit his controversial sister without his lawyer and bail supervisor being in the same room.

Khadr’s sister, Zaynab Khadr, has infuriated Canadians with her positive appraisals of al-Qaida and Osama bin Laden. In an interview with PBS’s Frontline, she was asked how parents could allow their children to become suicide bombers and Zaynab responded: “You must be very brave. You must be very, very, very brave. I mean I don’t have the guts to do that yet.”

Omar Khadr has written-off the comments by saying his sister was “saying things out of frustration.”

The Trudeau government gave Khadr $10.5 million (CDN) in “compensation” and issued a formal apology at the beginning of July because the Supreme Court of Canada described his incarceration at Guantanamo Bay as “oppressive.” Khadr claims he was tortured by U.S. and Canadian interrogators while a prisoner there. The payout and apology angered Canadians, given that Khadr had produced improvised explosive devices for the Taliban in Afghanistan and confessed to killing U.S. Army special forces medic Sgt. Christopher Speer with a hand grenade. (Read more from “Confessed Killer Wants Fewer Restrictions on His Freedom” HERE)

Students: LGBT Flag Is Like Confederate Flag

Students and parents at a high school in Alabama are calling for the removal of a classroom LGBT “rainbow pride” flag, saying it is comparable to the Confederate flag.

More than 2,400 people thus far have signed a Change.org petition calling for the flag to be taken down at Auburn High School.

“The following signers of this petition ask that the Pride Flag flown in Mrs. Yeager’s classroom be removed as we strongly feel that it creates a hostile and provocative learning environment for students not comfortable to openly supporting the LGBTQ+ community in a public school where students come from diverse political and religious backgrounds,” the petition reads.

“Furthermore, we believe it is unprofessional and distracting for a teacher to be so openly displaying their political views in an unbiased and socially neutral public setting.” (Read more from “Students: LGBT Flag Is Like Confederate Flag” HERE)

Shocker! ‘Islamophobia’ Is Decreed in Quran

Is it irrational to fear Islam?

It’s a question that deserves a real answer, because those who hurl the “Islamophobia” epithet around recklessly are actually characterizing people who fear Islam – including increasingly bloody acts of Islamic terrorism committed in the name of Allah – as irrational, insane, perhaps even stark raving mad.

A phobia is a type of anxiety disorder, defined by fear of an object or situation. It is a persistent, irrational fear, exaggerated and usually inexplicable and illogical. It often leads to a kind of hysteria or paralysis when a phobic person is confronted by the object or situation that is feared. We’ve all seen videos of people losing it when they see a harmless snake or spider. We read about or see depictions of people who are afraid of heights or going outdoors.

But when was the last time you saw someone hysterical at the sight of a woman in a hijab or the Quran, or hearing the call to prayer? Not very often. So, this definition of Islamophobia clearly doesn’t match any clinical disorder, and it is certainly is not connected to the way anyone actually uses the word.

Yet this slur – this derogatory, offensive term – is used by politicians, the media, professors and Islamic activists as a catchy and convenient way to define bigotry, prejudice and hatred against individual Muslims. Note, however, that the word “Muslim” is not part of the term – Islam is. So, the literal meaning of Islamophobia would not be bigotry against individual Muslims, it would be an irrational fear of Islam – a religion, an ideology, a political institution.
