Muslim Leader Hated By Burmese Buddhists Murdered

(Various articles direct from The IRRAWADDY in January 2017.)

Burmese Buddhists bitterly hated Muslim Ko Ni for his
relentless demands to change the Constitution.

One of Burma’s most prominent lawyers and Muslim leaders hated by Buddhist Burmese was gunned down at Yangon International Airport on Sunday (January 29) as he returned from an overseas trip.

The assassin knew that U Ko Ni was returning from an official visit to Indonesia where he had held meetings with Buddhist and Muslim religious figures who were involved in addressing tensions in Arakan State. The group aimed to draw on lessons from Indonesia’s past that could be applied to the current ethnic and religious tension in Burma.

As U Ko Ni waited on the sidewalk for a car to pick him up, the assassin approached from behind and shot him at point blank into back of his head. The assassin tried to run away but was subsequently caught by a group of brave taxi drivers and security police at Yangon International Airport.

Police have named the suspect as Kyi Lin and said that he is from Kyaukme in Shan State and previously served seven years in prison. He is now in police custody. The assassin’s precise motives remain unknown, and it is unclear if the gunman had any external support, or whether he simply worked alone.

Neil Gorsuch Nominated By Trump To Supreme Court

(Ken Klukowski’s article direct from The BREITBART NEWS on 31 January 2017.)

Trump Nominates Judge Neil Gorsuch to Supreme Court. Judge Neil Gorsuch speaks, after US President Donald Trump nominated him for the Supreme Court, at the White House in Washington, DC, on January 31, 2017.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump nominated Judge Neil Gorsuch on Tuesday evening to fill the seat on the U.S. Supreme Court left open by the sudden death of Justice Antonin Scalia in February 2016.

President George W. Bush appointed Gorsuch to the federal bench in 2006, after he worked in the Bush administration for two years as a deputy associate attorney general at the U.S. Department of Justice. Gorsuch currently serves as a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, which has jurisdiction over Wyoming, Kansas, Oklahoma, Utah, New Mexico, and his native Colorado.

Gorsuch is considered one of the most intellectual jurists on the federal bench, evinced by his gilded pedigree. He received his undergraduate degree from Columbia University in 1988 and graduated from Harvard Law School in 1991. Later in his career, he earned a Ph.D. from Oxford University in 2004. He would be the first Supreme Court justice in decades to hold a doctoral degree.

Pakistan & Bangladesh Should Be In Trump’s Muslim Ban

Two Pakistani terrorists committed San Bernardino massacre.

Priebus on Immigration Ban: Sunday on CBS’s “Face The Nation,” while discussing the details of President Donald Trump executive order halting access to the United States for immigrants from seven Muslim-majority countries, White House chief of staff Reince Priebus said, “Perhaps we need to take it further.”

Priebus said, “Hang on a second, the order also says persecuted Muslims have priority as well. That is a piece that is just getting totally — however you want to call it, misreported or not fully reported. It doesn’t just say Christians it also says persecuted Muslims get priority as well. This is not a Muslim ban. All this is identifying seven countries.

The reason we chose the seven countries, those were the seven countries that the Congress and Obama administration identified as the seven countries being the most identifiable with dangerous terrorism taking place in their country.

Trump's Partial Muslim Ban To Stop Immigration Jihad

(Staff article direct from The NEWS.COM.AU on 28 January 2017.)

Trump’s pronouncement on Muslim immigration makes good on one of his most controversial campaign promises to subject travellers from Islamic countries to “extreme vetting,” which he declared would make America safe from “radical Islamic terrorists.”

“This is big stuff,” the new US president declared at the Pentagon on Friday, after signing an executive order entitled “Protection of the nation from foreign terrorist entry into the United States.”

Donald Trump signed the executive order to suspend refugee arrivals and impose tough controls on travellers from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. The decree suspends the entire US refugee resettlement program for at least 120 days while tough vetting rules are established.

VP Mike Pence At March For Life: Protect The Unborn

(Michelle Moons’ article direct from The BREITBART NEWS on 27 January 2017.)

VP Pence at March for Life: Supreme Court Nominee Will Uphold God-Given Constitutional Liberties.

President Donald Trump will appoint a Supreme Court Justice to “uphold the God-given liberties enshrined in our Constitution in the tradition of the late and great Justice Antonin Scalia,” the new Vice President told the cheering crowd at the nation’s March For Life.

“We are, all of us, endowed by our Creator, with certain unalienable rights, and that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,” Vice President Mike Pence declared January 27. “Forty-four years ago our Supreme Court turned away from the first of these timeless ideals,” Pence said, referring to the right to life declared by the Founders of the United States 240 years ago in the Declaration of Independence.

President Donald John Trump: True To His Words

(Pamela Geller’s article direct from The BREITBART NEWS on 20 January 2017.)

It’s been less than a week since President Donald J. Trump took office, and he has, in no short order, astonishingly delivered on myriad campaign promises.

In spades. His hands-on style of governing is breathtaking. The people spoke. The people won. And our man is delivering the goods. It’s what freedom is supposed to look like. We have been living under the boot of leftist autocrats for so long, we forgot it could be this good. We have been set free. Every day is Christmas.

The whole of the enemedia (lying-Press) is in a collective tailspin, hell-bent on ignoring his monumental accomplishments, and instead are churning out fake news stories about crowd size — his and the sore losers march (funny how they never did a story on Tea Party crowd size).

Obama Gave $221 Million To Palestinians To Kill Jews

(Joel Pollack’s article direct from The BREITBART NEWS on 23 January 2017.)

US$ 221 million from Obama will go to the families of
of Palestinian terrorists if they were killed in the
process of killing any Israeli Jews.

Obama Gave Away $221 Million to Palestinians in Last Hours just before Trump Inauguration. The Associated Press reported Monday that former President Barack Obama released $221 million in U.S. funding for the Palestinian Authority on the morning of Friday, January 20 — just hours before he was to leave office.

A State Department official and several congressional aides say the outgoing administration formally notified Congress it would spend the money Friday morning, just before Donald Trump became president.

More than $227 million in foreign affairs funding was released at the time, including $4 million for climate change programs and $1.25 million for U.N. organizations. At least two GOP lawmakers had placed holds on the Palestinian funds. Congressional holds are generally respected by the executive branch but are not legally binding.

Trump To Stop China From Taking Over South China Sea

(David Brunnstrom’s article direct from The REUTERS on 23 January 2017.)

By occupying Spratly Islands Group by force China is
taking over South China Sea unlawfully.

Trump White House vows to stop China taking South China Sea islands. The new U.S. administration of President Donald Trump vowed on Monday that the United States would prevent China from taking over territory in international waters in the South China Sea, something Chinese state media has warned would require Washington to "wage war."

The comments at a briefing from White House spokesman Sean Spicer signaled a sharp departure from years of cautious U.S. handling of China's assertive pursuit of territory claims in Asia, just days after Trump took office on Friday.

"The U.S. is going to make sure that we protect our interests there," Spicer said when asked if Trump agreed with comments by his Secretary of State nominee, Rex Tillerson, on Jan. 11 that China should not be allowed access to islands it has built in the contested South China Sea.

"It’s a question of if those islands are in fact in international waters and not part of China proper, then yeah, we’re going to make sure that we defend international territories from being taken over by one country," he said.

Thanks Obama For Making Trump Possible & Inevitable

(Tom Tancredo’s article direct from The BREITBART NEWS on 21 January 2017.)

We Must Thank Barack Obama for Making Donald Trump Possible – And Inevitable. Thank you, Obama, for being the polarizing king of cultural warfare. Without you, the Republican Party might still be stuck in La-La land.

On day two of the Trump presidency, Donald Trump is already the greatest president of the 21st Century, thanks to Barack Obama’s “legacy.” As for George Bush, technically he was elected at the end of the 20th century, so that’s another story. But William Jefferson Clinton’s eight years left America in good health compared to Barack Obama, the worst president in our history.

Ten weeks after the November 8 earthquake, our political establishment is still in shock over the American people’s choice of Donald John Trump to lead our great nation. Let’s explain it to them in the simplest of terms: Barack Obama was such a complete disaster in the Oval Office that voters demanded a 180-degree reversal in the direction of the country, not the small course correction offered by other candidates.
