The Other Truth about Benghazi

by John Galt May 9, 2013 05:00 EDT Yesterday afternoon, a brave group of whistle-blowers gave testimony which some considered explosive, I would consider just plain brave (from CNSNews.com): Throughout the entire Libyan “revolution” ignited by quite possibly a teaming up of Saudi, Qatari, U.S., and U.K. intelligence resources, there were several factors which for a lack of better words “smelled quite rotten’ and had everyone scratching their collective heads. The questions that stood out in Europe and the United States related…

by John Galt March 20, 2013 22:00 ET In August of 2011 this blogger observed the following in an article titled “The Most Dangerous Stock Market in the World is now down over 90%“: In the nation of Cyprus, divided for decades between Turks and Greeks. Orthodox Christian and Muslim, the danger is real and somewhat buried in the back pages as other more pressing issues which impact geopolitics surpassed the region in importance. With the nation divided at gunpoint and distrust at…

by John Galt December 30, 2012 15:00 ET So how did I do? First, unlike many bloggers, prognosticators, commentators, and hosts, I will refer to my predictions for this year that is about to end by reminding everyone they can see my mistaken and correct predictions of doom in this thread from my radio show and in this thread: JohnGaltFLA.com Predictions for 2012 Let’s break this down, section by section and score it by +1 for correct, -1 for…

The War on Christianity The World at War Police State 2013 His Royal Highnass Economy in its Death Throes and of course a huge… DUCT TAPE ALERT You have been warned so tune in at 8 p.m. ET by clicking on the link below AND………

by John Galt November 14, 2012 17:30 ET There is nothing better than a demonstration of the IAF and precision munitions. God Bless the Israelis!

by John Galt October 31, 2012 05:00 ET As the story about the death of four brave Americans doing what their nation had asked of them, at least from a government perspective, fades into the noise of the 2012 elections and the monstrosity known as the mainstream media, the question which must be asked is staring everyone in the face: Did President Barack Obama order the assassination of the United States Ambassador to Libya and the subsequent cover up? The supposition…

by John Galt October 22, 2012 19:18 ET Peace in our time. It was a famous promise inferred by a man who was as responsible for the start of World War II as the Germans and Japanese. By failing to rebuild his nation’s arsenal and modernize it when their leadership was warning in the mid 1930′s, Chamberlain guaranteed the war which Hitler sought. The ignorance of the implications from the Spanish Civil War and the practices of modern warfare horrified his…

by John Galt October 22, 2012 17:30 ET Tonight the candidates will enjoin in a foreign policy debate. Before the show, I shall cover all the subjects that will probably be ignored, including: Iran Israel Worldwide Persecution of non-Muslim religions Russia Japan North Korea China South America Pakistan Afghanistan Africa NATO PIIGS PARTICIPATE: Click on the banner below to find the various audio players (32K or 64K stream) to listen or to participate in the chat room with like minded Americans.…

by John Galt September 13, 2012 18:30 ET This is perhaps the most infuriating show for my listeners that I have ever done. It is the war edition. We have troops dying in Obama’s Arab Spring nation because they can not put bullets into their weapons to defend American territory. So what is the big concern of the regime? Tune in, duct tape up, and find out. You have been warned so tune in at 8 p.m. ET by clicking on the…

by John Galt September 12, 2012 19:45 ET For the second night, Egyptian protesters are attacking the U.S. embassy in Cairo, Egypt in “retaliation” for a YouTube video which was made by a mystery man who is not anything that the mainstream media has made him out to be. From AhramOnline: Egyptian Muslims maintain protest at US embassy against anti-Islam film From the story above: Crowds of angry, mainly Muslim, protesters gathered before the US Embassy in Cairo on Wednesday evening…

by John Galt September 11, 2012 19:15 ET An appropriate note from the anniversary of sadness and anger, yet the Obama regime will not comment much beyond “y’all behave you silly religion of peacers.” Breaking at 7 p.m. per CNN one American killed in the riot and attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya. No reports of dead or injured from the riots in Cairo. Oh, and by the way, I warned my listeners last week that the $1.5 billion…

by John Galt July 6, 2012 02:00 ET According to the anointed one, President Barrack Hussein Obama, the fact that a bunch of radical Islamists winning power in Arab nations who supported the downing of the PanAm flight and attacks on the World Trade Center in 1993 and 2001 is a good thing. Needless to say, reality dictates otherwise. Breaking hard from the UK Telegraph via Jamie Dettmer: Libya elections: Muslim Brotherhood set to lead government Yeah, this is going to…

by John Galt June 25, 2012 05:00 ET Isaiah 17 1The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. 2The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid. 3The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD…

by John Galt June 24, 2012 09:15 ET I am following Al-Jazeera television live along with blogs in two English language newspapers in Cairo awaiting results of the Presidential election announcement which was due at 09:00 ET. As the news breaks, I shall post it here. With the link to this story and the headline below the photo form Ahram Online, I shall be closing my coverage of this event. I expect a period of relative stability in Egypt except for the…

by John Galt June 23, 2012 15:40 ET According to the Egyptian newspaper Ahram, the SCAF has agreed to issue the results of the Egyptian Presidential Elections at 9 a.m. ET (1300 GMT) Sunday morning. The question after that is if the military does in fact verify some rumors on the internet via Egypt on Friday, will indeed the nation descend into total chaos? From Ahram this morning: Egypt’s electoral commission to unveil presidential elections results Sunday 3pm Ahram Online,…

by John Galt June 20, 2012 19:30 ET Why not? He’s been alive. He’s been dead. He’s apparently alive again. Usually when the dead come to life they start sucking down bath salts and chasing people to eat them on the streets of South Beach. Here’s the latest via the link to a story below from Al-Jazeera: Mubarak in ‘stable condition’ in hospital Oh the skits Chevy Chase could enjoy with this story if he still hosted “Weekend Update.”

by John Galt June 19, 2012 17:35 ET Per the following Reuters story at the link below: Egyptian ex-president Mubarak clinically dead: sources This wold make for one of the shortest prison sentences for modern day dictators in history and throw the entire mess back into the streets as rumors of the Egyptian elections being rigged by the military are sweeping the crowds in Alexandria and Cairo. Welcome to Obama’s Arab Spring Civil War, Version 2.12, Egyptian style.

by John Galt June 18, 2012 19:15 ET From Al-Jazeera just a short time ago: The full article is available at this link: Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood calls for protests The full text of the SCAF (Supreme Council of the Armed Forces) statement via Ahram (full story at this link): The new addendum to the 30 March, 2011 military-authored Constitutional Declaration was released late Sunday by the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) in the official state gazette,…

by John Galt June 17, 2012 08:30 ET With the news of the last week, some of which I have linked to in this piece, it is amazing when one takes a step back and realizes that we truly are witnessing a world in turmoil. This is how it begins with a lack of U.S. leadership as a vacuum creates opportunity for radicals to create problems worldwide, and of course the biggest black hole in the world is in Washington, D.C. where the…

by John Galt June 16, 2012 14:30 ET “We should save our effort for a second revolution.” - Saeed, a butcher in Cairo on today’s Presidential Elections Stability? Peace? An Arab Spring which Conservative commentator Bill Kristol and President Obama agreed on being in the best interest of the region and people of Egypt? It would not be so laughable if it were not for the rapes, murder, torture, religious persecution, and cruelty being inflicted on the citizens of Egypt at…

by John Galt June 14, 2012 12:00 ET First and foremost, this is just an advisory of what my personal plan of action will be over the next 120 hours and not a recommendation for anyone to repeat or engage in any of these actions, especially if they can not afford to do so. There is not guarantee that this is the weekend where the events in Europe and the Middle East create the ultimate storm of financial disruption which washes over the…

by John Galt May 31, 2012 23:00 ET Throughout the recent five years of American economic, political, and Constitutional crises the world chugged along with winners and losers selected by fate and foolishness as the erosion of our modern civilization continued from within. This system crash at all levels, morality, financial structure, religion, politics, and the viability of the nations impacted from this disaster is going to lead to some extremely long term changes in the world, some of which will shock the…

by John Galt April 4, 2012 19:20 ET On December 17, 2010, a previously unknown street vendor named Mohamed Bouazizi walked out into the streets of Tunis and in protest of continued government interference and overbearing policies, set himself on fire. This act of self immolation set the entire Arab world on fire, causing romantic Western political imbeciles to think that this action and the political protests which followed were the acts of Islamic versions of George Washington and deserved the unqualified support of…

by John Galt March 4, 2012 09:45 ET Egypt, Yemen, Morocco, Tunisia, Syria, and Libya are in the midst of or engaged in the destructive forces first called the “Arab Spring” and now what I call the Islamist Winter. The problems created in the MENA region for the West are so dire yet so unrecognized by the Europeans engaged in their own issues and the uneducated morons managing U.S. foreign policy that when the storm finally dies down, resources will be under the control of…

by John Galt March 4, 2012 02:10 ET In another “see, I told you so” the American taxpayer continues to install the building blocks for the greater caliphate across the Middle East to North Africa region (MENA) and spread the disastrous policy of funding tribalism and radical Islamists without using any ground intelligence to determine if our nation’s long term interests will be served. This morning, I present to my readers more evidence that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is either evil, incompetent, or both…

by John Galt February 5, 2012 08:40 ET The United States citizenry continues to enjoy this bubble of disbelief, told repeatedly that the threats of the Arab Spring uprisings are overblown and that the concerns expressed are rantings of anti-Obama and anti-Democracy forces. Unfortunately for one of the most inept State Department regimes in U.S. history, the Arab Spring did in fact give way to an Islamist Winter and the dominoes have been falling as feared, one nation at a time. Kuwait joins this list…

by John Galt January 19, 2012 21:50 ET As America’s clock advances forward into the election season, the memories of the streets erupting in “democracy” across the Arab world will soon be forgotten. The misguided belief that the United States would hold sway or any influence on the outcome of the so-called revolutions away from radical Islam has been eradicated by the creation of two Sharia based regimes in Egypt and Tunisia with more on the way. Sadly, one of America’s historic and most enduring…

JohnGaltFLA Predictions for 2012 By John Galt January 1, 2012 – 17:00 ET I. Geopolitical Predictions 1. The United States constructs a new large military base in Columbia near the Venezuelan border in anticipation of the collapse of the Chavez regime. The new focus on South America is seen as a desire to refocus American foreign policy as the Middle East rejects any further interference from the United States. Columbia welcomes the action as it intertwines the U.S. into their internal conflicts and…

By John Galt December 30, 2011 07:50 ET Buckle up. 2012 is almost here. Last year I was so-so in my predictions and for 2012 I probably will be also. If you are meek put on your Depends for this show or just assume the fetal position when the theme music stops. In the first half hour I’ll cover the news of the day, the financial news and then begin the prognostications which cover geopolitics, sports, U.S. politics, the economy, weather, and whatever else I…

By John Galt December 18, 2011 – 20:15 ET As Bahrain and Egypt are getting scant notice beyond some of the cable news outlets in the U.S., there are other regions roiling with protests and riots which will impact not just the geopolitical picture, but economic future of the West in the year ahead. Thus I thought some alerts as to what just might be coming is worthy of reporting. First from Reuters, a story today that could indicate that all of the plans of…

By John Galt December 17, 2011 – 23:45 ET When the nation of Saudi Arabia insisted the GCC invade Bahrain to crush the Shiite protests, the West went back to sleep and assumed the discontent was pacified or stifled and this strategic tiny nation in the Persian Gulf would not reappear in the news cycle. Unfortunately for the House of Saud, that is not the case as this story from Al-Jazeera explains: ‘Several injured’ in Bahrain clashes Excerpt: Bahraini police have clashed with anti-government protesters,…

By John Galt December 17, 2011 – 23:00 ET The video via Al-Jazeera only begins to tell the story: With 9 dead and 430 wounded as reported by Al-Jazeera, the winter of discontent with the military junta running Egypt is expanding as is the opportunity for Islamists who are about to take power to cultivate new military leaders to replace the current crop with officers sympathetic to their goals. What has the protesters really angry this time is that the military openly beat female protesters…

By John Galt December 10, 2011 – 22:15 ET So much for the U.S. taxpayer getting their money’s worth again. The NATO created war to insure reliable delivery of cheap oil to Italy and Southern Europe appears to be unraveling week by week as the various rebel groups inside Libya continue to fracture and split on various tribal lineages as well as secular versus hardline Islamist ideals. Tonight is no different as an initial report crossed the AP wires about an assassination attempt on the…

By John Galt December 4, 2011 – 21:45 ET Two stories from Reuter’s African news wire tells the tale of trouble that so many of us warned would be a result of these “popular” uprisings. The first story is straight out of the conflict of cultures under way in the nation of Tunisia: Islamists and secularists in Tunisia stand-off Last I checked, from this particular blog, all I can say is: But hey, who am I to say that? Oh yes, that guy who warned…

By John Galt November 21, 2011 – 17:45 ET So is President Obama happy yet with the body count or shall he come out with another proclamation of just how wonderful the “Arab Spring” movement is in Egyptian cities? Per Reuters (click to read story here), the body count is at 33 with over 1,250 wounded thus far. The Muslim Brotherhood has vowed to “not” participate in any further demonstrations in an attempt to calm the waters before the election period. What is worse though,…

By John Galt November 20, 2011 -13:35 ET From Al-Jazeera Television: The military leadership in Cairo is blaming the “protests” on foreign involvement so it would appear that the disaster of the Arab Spring is accelerating as predicted into total anarchy. Follow the story here at at AJE via this story at the link below: Standoff sets in at Egypt’s Tahrir Square 11/20 1400 ET UPDATE: 192 reportedly injured so far; numbers on arrests unknown. Watch Al-Jazzera’s LIVE coverage of the conflict at this link:…

By John Galt November 16, 2011 – 17:50 ET In an article back on March 25, 2011 and on several podcasts, I warned about the ring of fire surrounding Saudi Arabia and the instability being instigated by the Iranians and their Shiite allies working to weaken the House of Saud and its influence over the region. Fast forward to the news from the Kuwait Times today and the exploding corruption scandal which appears to be awakening an Arab Spring type of demonstration in one of…

By John Galt November 15, 2011 – 05:30 ET Whoever his foreign policy adviser is, he should be fired this morning. If old Herman can’t answer this question on Libya, only the most important aspect of the so-called Arab Spring and the illegal interventionist policy of the Obama administration, then he is not qualified to be President. Sorry to do this to the guy as he had the potential but lost it with this blatant lack of knowledge. See what happens when you don’t read…

By John Galt November 13, 2011 – 09:30 ET (UPDATED 15:40 ET Nov. 13) As the Arab Spring devolved into the Islamist Autumn, warnings were issued on these pages and at many other blogs and news sources about the problems with the so-called rebellions within Egypt, Libya, and Tunisia along with ongoing conflicts throughout the MENA region. Now the White House is starting to worry because the success of the revolution in Libya is showing signs of fraying as yesterday two members of rebel militias…
