Unconfirmed Iranian Nuclear Test

The Perspective: Let me begin by saying I am hesitant to send this to you because it is an unconfirmed report, and I hope it is wrong. But I wanted you to at least be aware and we'll track the story together in the coming days. An Israeli news service is reporting this morning that an earthquake in Iran last weekend may have been triggered by an Iranian nuclear weapons test, citing an Iranian nuclear scientist working on the project as its source. "This past Saturday night, southern Iran experienced what was reported as a significant earthquake - a seismic event measuring 5.0 on the Richter scale," reports Arutz Sheva/Israel National News, attributing the story first to the Israel Insider website. "Its epicenter was just north of the strategic Straits of Hormuz, which separates Iran from Abu Dhabi and Oman and which is the gateway to the Persian Gulf. The report quotes an Iranian nuclear scientist who claims to be working in uranium enrichment for the project, and who said that the 'quake' was acutally an undergound nuclear bomb test. Israel Insider adds that the test/quake was actually the second in a series. Nine days ago, a 4.8 Richter scale event occurred, with its epicenter only five kilometers away from the weekend tremor. The Israel Insider source reports that two nuclear rockets are currently ready - and are intended for use against Israel in the coming months. If the report is correct, it would belie previous speculation that Iran would not begin nuclear testing until it had more nuclear-bomb production capability." Let me stress again that this is an unconfirmed report. While the Associated Press did report a 5.0 earthquake in Iran this past weekend, as of 7:30am eastern on Friday the allegation that the quake was connected to Iranian nuclear testing has not been picked up by other major Israeli news services such as the Jerusalem Post, Ynet, or Haaretz. At the very least, let's keep praying for the peace of Jerusalem, and preparing to care for those in the epicenter who would be severely affected if war is coming soon.

If this is real...God Help Us All.

Dear Mr. Obama

The Perspective: Watch it, Love it. Here is why we need Johnny McCain.

PS: Happy Halloween.

23% Of Texans Believes Obama Is Muslim

From FOX News.com:

A new poll finds that 23 percent of registered voters in Texas believe that Barack Obama is a Muslim, even though the Democratic candidate has repeatedly explained that he is a church-going Christian.

The poll, conducted by the Texas Politics Project and Department of Government at The University of Texas in Austin, showed Obama trailing John McCain by 11 points in the Lone Star State.

Forty-five percent of those polled accurately described Obama as a Protestant. But the 23 percent who identified his religion as Islam is about twice as high as in typical national polls.

Throughout his presidential campaign, Obama has been fighting false rumors, largely hatched on the Internet, that he is secretly a Muslim.

On Obama's Fight the Smears Web site, which his campaign set up to battle harmful claims, it says that Obama is a "committed Christian" who regularly attends church with his family.

The Texas poll interviewed 550 registered voters in Texas from Oct. 15-22, and had a margin of error of 4.2 percent.

The Perspective: O.K. I know that they say "Don't mess with Texas." But I have to, because this is just going to far and giving us 'Rednecks' a bad name.

Even though I support Johnny McCain, I don't think Barack Obama is a bad guy. Hes, just well lets say 'out of touch' with what needs to be done in this country and what can be done in this country. But anyway, back to the poll.

23!!% Are you kidding me? This is just fucking crazy. He has and will continue to say that he is a Christian. Because thats WHAT HE IS!! Sure, its the same old, well you Rednecks are stupid. Bullshit.

Don't blame the Rednecks. Blame the hicks who live in Bumfuck, somewhere. Texas in this case, who don't leave their homes unless they're hunting or apparently voting.

So tell me? Did you know that Obama was a Christian?(I hope so, if not I'm a failure) Or were you one of the guys who, are just narrow minded? Either way...NOW YOU KNOW.

Vote November 4th!!

Message From Barack Obama: Play Ball After I Talk

The Perspective: So who is watching the World Series tonight? Its game five and its in the sixth inning tied 2-2. If the Phillies win its over...and we've waited 2 days to watch the finish.

So your pumped right? Can't wait till the final out and see if the Rays storybook season continues. I know I am...but the wait isn't over. Why?

Good Ol' Barack Obama is giving a speech...at 8pm EST. Just before the game. Who the fuck does this guy think he is? Sure, he might be the next President of the United States but this is BASEBALL and the WORLD SERIES at that. The American Pastime.

You don't fuck with baseball. And he's fucking with it, and in a big way. I mean sure it cost him 1 million! a piece for the 30 minute time slot on FOX, CBS, and NBC and millions more for the 3 cable networks.

But in the middle of the WORLD SERIES!?! Fuck that. I don't know about you guys, but I'm just sick and tired of this shit. Let the election happen and let me watch my baseball. If you've got something to tell me...wait till after the game you damn politician.(and they goes for all of ya, don't fuck with sports)

And one more thing...ever hear someone say, "Well they bought the election." Well its happening... this is just another example.

Abu Ghadiyain Killed In U.S SOCOM Strike In Syria

From FOX News:

Killed in Sunday's attack by Special Operations Forces was Abu Ghadiyain, Al Qaeda's senior coordinator operating in Syria who was closely associated with the leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq.

The assault, which took place about 4-5 miles inside Syria, came just days after the commander of U.S. forces in western Iraq said American troops were redoubling efforts to secure the border, which he called an "uncontrolled" gateway for fighters entering Iraq.

Ninety percent of foreign fighters enter Iraq through Syria, according to U.S. intelligence estimates, bringing cash to Al Qaeda in Iraq's chief. They also are deadly — trained in bomb-making and willing to sacrifice themselves in suicide attacks.

A senior U.S. military intelligence official said that in July only about 20 foreign fighters were entering the country each month, down 50 percent from six months earlier, and just a fifth of the estimated 100 foreign fighters who were infiltrating Iraq a year ago.

Eight people in total were killed in the raid, which Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Muallem called an act of "criminal and terrorist aggression."

During their funerals, angry residents shouted anti-American slogans and carried banners reading: "Down with Bush and the American enemy."

Russia's Foreign Ministry also criticized the attack, warning that it will escalate tensions in the region.

FOX News' Jennifer Griffin, Catherine Herridge, Kelly Wright, Anne McGinn and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

The Perspective: Now if any of my readers ever questioned why I talk down about Syria so much, here is some proof. We all know that in recent weeks the U.S. military has been targeting numerous key members of Al Qaeda.

Ghadiyain is just another example of why we need to go into place like Pakistan(who has stepped up their counter-terror activity) and Syria. The news story mentions intelligence such as the number of fighters that enter Iraq from Syria and what percent of fighters come from Syria. The numbers are astonishing.

When you consider the history of Syria and its actions in helping nations such as Saddam's Iraq, Lebanon, and housing terrorists from Al Qaeda and Hezbollah. Something needs to be done.

This 'something' is exactly what we did this weekend in Syria. Send in SOCOM troops and hit them hard and fast. From the people that I've spoken to inside the Pentagon, the SOCOM unit that attacked Syria is from the 1st SFOD-D.(Figure it out yourself, I can't tell you anything more than that)

And yes, Russia got a piece of the action too. I love that whenever a known supporter of terrorism is attacked by the United States that Russia stands behind the terror supporter(in this case Syria) and not the United States. Will it escalate tensions in the region. No...it will help being stability to the region, but more still needs to be done.

And on a separate note, Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother were killed this weekend, and her nephew was kidnapped. Reports surfaced today saying that the SUV that was stolen has been found with a black males body inside the SUV. Lets pray that its not her nephew.

May God be with the Hudson family.
