. . . a woman who proudly proclaims she's embarrassed to be an American, and is the "mother" of thousands of Muslim anchor babies she helped get delivered here through Medicaid fraud.

That's right, for its Mother's Day program, last night, the Islamic House of Wisdom--Dar Al-Hikma--the 2nd largest mosque in North America, is honoring Najah Bazzy, about whom I've written a great deal.

Ms. Bazzy--the Muslim Nurse Ratched--is a very interesting candidate for Muslims to pick as their "Mother of the Year." You see, as head transcultural nurse for Dearbornistan's Oakwood Hospital, she was intimately involved in Medicaid fraud, in which she served as translator and co-conspirator for pregnant Muslim aliens who used phony social security numbers to get Medicaid to cover the births of their babies (they also got U.S. citizenship for those babies--citizenship which can be traded on the open market, since there are no hard-and-fast identifying items on the birth certificate but for the gender).

In addition to that, Najah Bazzy told participants in a 2004 CAIR-Michigan political event, "I'm embarrassed to be an American." As I always say, we're embarrassed you're an American, too, Najah Bazzy. Bazzy was excoriated by Republican Congressman Thaddeus McCotter who was shocked that any Muslim born and raised in America would say such a thing. I wasn't shocked. That's their usual proclamation when they think they are "among friends."

And finally, Najah Bazzy, was the proud donor of an interesting "exhibit" at the Arab American National Museum--a propaganda videotape, which lies about Israel's conduct in Jenin during the height of Muslim homicide bombings in Israel. As we all know, even the pan-Palestinian U.N. reports that only about 26 people died--not the 500 claimed on the baloney-tape--at Jenin, and most of those deaths were attributable to causes--natural and Palestinian--other than the Israelis.

And you might remember Najah Bazzy from her whining press conference, last year, demanding that Northwest Airlines reimburse Muslims who missed their flights returning from the Hajj (Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia), even though they arrived late. She and the other whiners, predictably, succeeded in getting Dhimmi Airline, Northwest, to reimburse them AND start a whole new round of Muslim sensitivity training taught by CAIR.

No shocker that the Islamic House of Wisdom is featuring her for its Mother's Day event, since--as I've repeatedly noted--this mosque is headed by Imam Mohammed Ali Elahi, former spiritual leader of Ayatollah Khomeini's Iranian Navy, and longtime buddy of Hezbollah spiritual leaders Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah.

Yep, this is the "Mother of the Year" for Shi'ite Muslims in America. Well they got one part right. She's definitely, as they say, a "Mother" . . . . And, yes, sadly, she has kids who share her unique brand of hatred, phoniness, and anti-American politics.

Like I said, more Americans than Ms. Bazzy are embarrassed she's an American.

I think I like the way Cosa Nostra celebrates Mother's Day a whole lot better than the way Shi'ite Muslims do.

Although Hezbollah's largest base of supporters in America is in Dearbornistan, the fact is that Hezbos are all over America. And while we've caught some, the majority get away with it.

And while those supporting Hezbollah in Dearbornistan are primarily Shi'ite Muslims, plenty of 'em are Sunnis. And there are many Sunnis Muslims working for and with the Shi'ite terrorist group. As I've noted so many times before, these two groups who hate each other, love each other when it comes to the ultimate enemy . . . us, and they constantly work together for our defeat and destruction.

Here are a few Sunni Hezbollah supporters outside of Dearbornistan, brought to my attention by the vigilant Duane and Rochester reader Mary. Yes, Hezbollah supporters are all over America and will continue to sprout b/c we target few of them:

A federal grand jury has indicted three Yemenis on charges of money-laundering, alleging that they transferred more than $100,000 to overseas accounts they thought were controlled by the Islamic terrorist organization Hezbollah.

The charges were filed against Yehia Ali Ahmed Alomari, 27; Mohamed Al Huraibi, 41; and Saleh Mohamed Taher Saeed, 28, who ran minimarts and a restaurant in southwest and northeast Rochester.

As I always say, beware of shopping at Muslim-owned businesses, especially of the all-cash variety. You don't know exactly where your money is going, but it's a sure bet it's usually not going to a benevolent party. Assume the very worst, as this case bears out.

The indictment, handed up Wednesday, alleges money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering.

The three have been in federal custody since their arrest on the same charges in March 2007. They were indicted after plea negotiations failed.

If convicted, Alomari, Al Huraibi and Saeed face up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, said U.S. Attorney Terrance P. Flynn.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement began an investigation in January 2005 after banking records showed that a Social Security number assigned to Saeed was associated with 324 overseas currency transactions totaling $12.3 million from October 2002 through November 2004.

An undercover officer from the immigration agency allegedly arranged with Alomari, Al Huraibi and Saeed from April 2005 to February 2007 to send $107,430 to overseas accounts that the officer maintained were controlled by Hezbollah, the prosecution said.

The officer allegedly told the three that the money had been earned illegally through the sale of immigration documents, food stamps, prescription drugs and counterfeit goods, the prosecution said.

Prosecutors don't allege that Alomari, Al Huraibi and Saeed had connections to Hezbollah but accuse them of knowingly sending money to accounts they believed were controlled by the organization. The accounts were actually controlled by the federal government, and none of the money reached Hezbollah.

No charges have been filed against Saeed in connection with the overseas transfers totaling $12.3 million.

Lawyers for Alomari, Al Huraibi and Saeed have denied any wrongdoing on their clients' behalf. They said the three transferred money overseas as a service for fellow Yemenis in Rochester and took a commission on money they sent.

Congrats to the ICE agents in this case who foiled these men. Contrast them to the lazy ICE agents and superiors in Detroit who stopped cold in investigating a very similar, related money transfer operation to Yemen, conducted by Shi'ites in Dearbornistan, which continues to send millions of dollars a month to Yemen. The case had operatives and tentacles nationwide in at least 23 states.

An ICE superior told agents that he knew the money was funding terrorists, yet he and his boss, Brian Moskowitz, and subordinate agents stopped investigating because it was too much work. The money transfer of millions to terrorists in Yemen continues to date. I know about the case because ICE agents initially working on it sought my advice and knowledge of some of the players.

Lebanon, er . . . Hezbollahstan, today. America, tomorrow.

Just before her tax-funded vacay to South America, looks like The ICE Princess has a big "Look at Me on FOX News" ICE show raid of illegal aliens in the works somewhere in Iowa.

You know the drill--millions of dollars spent to "round up" Hispanic illegal alien workers (never Muslim ones in these raids) for the cameras and newspapers, the aliens are then released into the Great American Abyss within a few days, and The ICE Princess, a/k/a Immigration and Customs Enforcement chieftess Julie L. Myers gets to go on FOX News and tell America how she means bid'ness (when she doesn't) . . . all in a bid to convince Americans that we need to give illegal aliens amnesty and U.S. citizenship.

A newspaper in Waterloo, Iowa, reports that ICE has rented out a giant coliseum, the National Cattle Congress (NCC), and has brought in power generators, trailers, and other equipment. Illegal aliens and immigration experts believe that ICE is about to do one of its giant, phony show-raids and use the NCC as a staging ground for aliens. And, based on what I've read, I think their assessment is right:

The presence of immigration officials at National Cattle Congress has stoked fears of an impending raid and caused some in the Hispanic community to avoid workplaces and public areas.

Four days after The Courier first reported the installation of trailers, generators and ventilation equipment on the grounds, the presence of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement remains a mystery. Tim Counts, an ICE spokesman in the Twin Cities, refused comment on Tuesday. He said he didn't know when, or if, the agency would explain its activities. [DS: Oh, they'll explain them, as soon as Julie Myers decides it's time to go on FOX News. This phony and attention whore won't give that up.]

NCC officials said they were told the grounds were rented for a training exercise [DS: Riiiight.]. . . .

Neither NCC nor the federal government would confirm whether federal officials are using the NCC grounds as part of the national exercise. In response to an inquiry by The Courier, U.S. Sen. Charles Grassley's office requested a briefing on the use of the NCC grounds, but was told ICE officials would neither confirm nor deny anything. Similarly, U.S. Rep. Bruce Braley's office was unable to obtain additional information. [DS: If only Grassley has less ethics and traded his vote on Myers the way Senator Cornyn did to help his buddies at Pilgrims Pride, she'd tell him which Iowa biz she's show-raiding.]

Mark Grey, an immigration expert and University of Northern Iowa professor, said the grounds at NCC appear to have a capacity similar to that the Iowa National Guard armory in Fort Dodge. That is where authorities held suspects after a 2006 raid of a Swift meat processing plant in Marshalltown.

Methinks he's on the money.

But in that instance, he said, authorities kept their plans secret.

"I ask myself, 'What are they planning, and why are they being so bloody obvious about it?'" he said.

Um, so The ICE Princess can pose on FOX News, again, and her boyfriend, Michael "Serpenthead" Chertoff, can make yet another big push for amnesty. That's why.

Stay tuned, as I will be watching and following this story. And I'll write about the recent Pilgrims Pride fiasco and what Myers' many demoralized agents told me about that farce.

This morning, former Bush campaign spokesman, John Truscott, went on a major Detroit radio station to flack and shill for Hezbollah agent and federally convicted insurance fraud perpetrator Ali Jawad, whom the John McCain campaign wisely and swiftly dumped as soon as they learned of his identity.

And it made me wonder on which parallel planet they were living. While this Hezbollah agent and Bush operative together told the pandering, ignorant radio host that Lebanon is controlled by many peoples of many religions who are living together in peace, Lebanon was actually being taken over by Hezbollah through blood, guns, and violence.

Yesterday, Hezbollah captured Beirut. And George Bush did nothing. They will soon have control of the whole country, and Bush will do nothing. In many ways, Bush is to blame for this fiasco, as is Israel.

By invading Iraq and handing it over to Shi'ites, Bush completed the mission that neither Khomeini, nor Ahmadinejad never could. By removing Saddam Hussein and the entire Sunni government structure from Iraq and giving it to Shi'ites who won't hire Sunnis for any government and law enforcement positions, Bush ignited a Shi'ite revival--an extremist revival throughout not just the Middle East, but throughout the world. He created a contiguous, non-stop crescent-shaped Shi'ite region, ruled by Iran and its partner Syria--two terrorist states. And he did nothing to buffer or hinder it.

In one of its darkest days, when Israel wantonly pulled out of South Lebanon in 2000--in just an hour--it started the Shi'ite revival and began the handover of Lebanon, once a Christian Phoenician country, over to Hezbollah. Shi'ite moderates and others who helped Israel keep the peace in South Lebanon feared for their lives. Many left, many others were murdered, and still others were persecuted or had to move away from the South. It taught those peaceful forces of moderation and western influence a lesson: Don't trust Israel, at least not the Israel of Ehud Barak, and since, Ariel Sharon and Ehud Olmert. They threw the good Lebanese to the wolves of Nasrallah and Iran and Syria.

Then, Israel did it again, in the summer of 2006, when the country haphazardly invaded Lebanon, under Olmert--the first Israeli Prime Minister with no real military experience. When a lawyer runs a war, you know you're not in it to win. Olmert could have defeated Hezbollah, had he known how to conduct a ground and air campaign. Or had he even wanted to win.

But, tragically, none of those necessities of war applied to Olmert's malpractice-ridden war. Instead of defeating Hezbollah soundly, which he could have done had he wanted to, he wasted Israeli lives--especially the lives of poor, religious settlers (the ones whose families' homes he took away and continues to). And he emboldened and strengthened Hezbollah for decades and for its current successful bid in finally taking over Lebanon completely, once and for all.

Even under Ronald Reagan, who is given far too much credit for "fighting" terrorism, we were attacked--300 U.S. Marines and civilians murdered while they slept--by Hezbollah, and we did nothing . . . except pull out and run away from the country. We should have decimated Hezbollah then and allowed Israel to clean house.

But instead we ran, and we pressured Israel to do the same, which they ultimately did with the 2000 cut-and-run, now celebrated annually by Hezbollah over there and Hezbollah agents, Osama Siblani, Ali Jawad, and others here in Little Hezbollahstan a/k/a Dearborn, Michigan. The same goes for the Hezbollah torture-murder of Navy Diver Robert Dean Stethem on the plane it hijacked, TWA 847, in 1985. He was murdered. We did little or nothing in response.

When Bush pressured Lebanon for more free elections, just as he did in Gazastan, he got the mirror image of the resulting HAMASastan . . . Hezbollahstan. More Hezbollah Members of the Lebanese Parliament were elected where before there was just one, and Hezbollah literally married its alliance with the Shi'ite Amal militia, headed by Lebanese Parliament speaker Nabih Berri. Berri's immediate family is married into Hezbollah. As a result of Bush-Rice engineered elections, Hezbollah gained control of most of the major government ministries, several seats in Parliament, and essentially the slow, complete emasculation of the Fouad Siniora Lebanese government that we now see essentially toppled this week, with the loss of Beirut.

So, now, will George Bush enter Lebanon to end the Shi'ite Hezbollah/Iran Revolution he started? With only 7.5 months left of his administration, not a chance. He blew his capital in Iraq, starting up the revolution that he now can neither stop or even put partially back into the bottle. For all the claimed "Texas swagger," wimpitude and dhimmitude to the Shia Revival is all he shows the scared Cedars Revolution democrats in Lebanon who want to be free of Hezbollah.

While meeting with Assad of Syria and pressuring Israel to give in to terrorists and give them half the state, Bush and Condi Clueless missed the opportunity of a lifetime to finally free Lebanon of Iran and Syria by annihilating Hezbollah. He'd have enjoyed the support in such an effort from Lebanese Christians all over America--the largest and most patriotic group of Arabs in the U.S.--and from his Sunni, Gulf State oil buddies the Saudis and their neighbors, all of whom badly fear and want to put down this Shia rebellion and swath of takeover that now spans the Mid-East.

So, now, Beirut has fallen. And it's long been only a matter of time until the entire Lebanon becomes Hezbollahstan.

But instead of fixing the problem he helped create and expand geometrically, Bush is coasting to retirement and high-paid speeches. And Lebanon is burning.

But this Hezbollah takeover, as I said, is not confined to the Mid-East. I see it on the streets of the Detroit area, where Shi'ite Hezbollah agents like Ali Jawad are neither embarrassed of their criminal records, nor do they shy away from their open support of Hezbollah--a group that willingly killed 300 U.S. Marines and embassy staff and blew up the Jewish Community Center and Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires.

And such is their power that a spineless radio talk show host sees no problem in that. Nor does he see a problem in Jawad's claim that Hezbollah didn't commit the Beirut bombings of Americans. That's a settled question.

But the Shi'ite Revolution that Bush jump-started and which has reached its latest pinnacle, this week, with the takeover of Beirut, has unsettled all established fact.

And it will be a problem for America in the near future that we created and now ignore.

But we will soon learn that was a huge mistake.

I don't recommend any of the new releases at movie theaters, this weekend. All of them gave me a headache. I did not screen "Redbelt."

* "Speed Racer": This non-animated feature taken from the Japanimation series of the same name was more concerned with sets, costumes, and CGI backdrops than its substandard, boring, predictable story. Every second was manic dayglo and brightness everywhere. I was considering putting on my sunglasses in the dark theater. And it stars Susan Sarandon as Mom Racer. That's annoying in and of itself.

Since there were many little kids at the theater and it's being promoted as a kids' film, I had to wonder why this movie contains the F-word, the S-word, and a little kid--Spritle Racer--giving the one-finger salute. Also hard to jibe that a movie aimed at little kids features bad guys putting a guy's arm into a tank of hungry Piranhas to be eaten and a scene in which a man's finger is eaten by them.

The story: Speed Racer, played by Emile Hirsch, grows up after watching his brother racer, Rex Racer, crash and burn and die. Or did he? Speed becomes a great racer and is offered a big endorsement deal by the evil Royallton Corp (always those evil big businesses). Will he take it? Will he win the cross-continent road rally? And who is the mysterious, masked racer helping him out?

More importantly, do we care? In my case, for the entire 2 hour, 10 minute movie, the answer was a big, fat, "NO."

* "What Happens in Vegas": What Happens in Vegas should stay off the movie screen, if this is any indication. This movie was stupid, formulaic, tasteless, and a waste of time. Plus, it features four of the most annoying actors in Hollywood, including Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz. It was supposed to be a comedy, but the jokes--for the most part--weren't funny. Groanworthy, more than anything.

Diaz plays a woman just dumped by her fiancee and Kutcher a juvenile, immature man just fired by his wealthy father. Both of them fly to Vegas from New York and meet each other on a fluke. They get drunk, get married, and win $3,000,000 at the slot machine, just as they were planning their divorce. Then, they are sentenced by Judge Dennis Miller (yeah, that's believable, plus his name is "Judge Whopper"--haha, funny) to live together as a married couple for six months before he divides the winnings. While scheming against each other, they predictably fall in love. Schocking. The end.

A cheesy chick-flick not worth your time. Certainly wasn't worth mine.

* "Then She Found Me": This movie was directed by and stars Helen Hunt. But Hunt is so anorexically thin and gaunt, you keep thinking she just arrived from Auschwitz and can't pay attention to the horrid story. While wishing she ate more than half a bean for dinner--and in her case, the camera simply didn't add those ten pounds--you try to pay attention to the bizarre, way-too-quirky plot about a stereotypical Jewish woman whose biological clock is ticking and badly wants to have kids. She marries, then is quickly left by the immature Matthew Broderick. She meets and falls for an English man, but finds out she's pregnant with the ex's kid. She is adopted, and learns that her birth mother is the weird talk show host, Bette Midler. But wait, it gets worse. Her gynecologist is played by . . . Salman Rushdie? Hmmm . . . now, we're getting close to the reason for the fatwah. (Just joking, no e-mails please--of course, I abhor the Muslim death-sentence fatwa against Rushdie.)

Skipworthy.

Unlike his estranged daughter who openly cheered cries for Palestinian terrorism, Academy Award-winning actor Jon Voight truly gets it.

Last year, I wrote about Voight's on-target interview with Radar Magazine about Iraq, the War on Terror, and jihad. Voight gets it.

And he's demonstrating that again, by visiting the poor, working-class residents of Sderot, Israel, who've repeatedly been hit with deadly rockets from Islamic terrorists in Gaza.

Most of these people from Sderot or their parents or grandparents are from Arab countries, from which they fled after much persecution. They are poor people who cannot afford to move from harm's way:

Oscar winner Jon Voight is coming to Israel next week for his first solidarity visit to salute the Jewish state in honor of its 60th birthday. . . .

Voight will welcome Chabad's Children of Chernobyl's (CCOC) 80th rescue mission airlifting children from irradiated regions in Ukraine, Belarus and Western Russia to Israel; visit Sderot, which has endured 7,000 Hamas missiles and numerous casualties; comfort terror victims; and, go to Yad Vashem [DS: The Holocaust Museum].

"I'm coming to salute, encourage and strengthen the people of Israel on this joyous 60th birthday," said Voight. "This week is about highlighting Israel as a moral beacon. At a time when its enemies threaten nuclear destruction, Israel heals.

"Israel is a haven from nuclear horrors for thousands of Chernobyl survivors who suffer the consequences of the worst environmental disaster in history. I personally want to welcome the youngsters aboard Chabad's Children of Chernobyl's 80th Rescue Mission--it is a great honor to help save a child's life."

Giving back to society has long been a priority for Voight, having volunteered with and contributed to numerous charities and causes at home and abroad. His deep humanitarian values direct him to Sderot and to Chabad's Terror Victims Project (CTVP).

"I want to meet the people of Sderot," said Voight. "I want to tell them: 'Every day you have rockets falling on your city. We care about you. We have not forgotten you!' And I want to underscore Israel's magnificent contributions to mankind."

Unlike Skankelina Jolie Voight, father knows best yet again. Attention, Muslim, anti-Israel boycotters: Add him to your list. He's on my list of people to support.

Thanks to reader, "There is No Santa Claus," for the tip.

While The ICE Princess, Julie L. Myers (useless, racist chief of Immigration and Customs Enforcement), is planning her luxe tax-funded vacation to South America and warehousing her kid with the nanny, Guadalupe Gutierrez-Juarez is a new father.

The illegal alien raped a ten-year-old American girl who just had his kid. I guess those phony workplace arrests of illegal aliens aren't really working, are they? Well, they are working in the sense that somebody gets to go on TV and pretend she's doing her job, then gets a tax-funded vacay to Argentina:

Sources close to the Fremont County Sheriff's Office have confirmed the shock of a 10-year-old giving birth to a baby girl Saturday at Madison Memorial Hospital.

The girl was allegedly raped by 37-year-old Guadalupe Gutierrez-Juarez, who is an illegal immigrant currently in the Fremont County Jail on rape charges.

Gutierrez-Juarez was arrested April 29th after a pregnant child came into a medical facility for treatment.

He is being held on $250,000 bond, but he will not be released if the amount is met because he is an illegal immigrant.

Gutierrez-Juarez will appear in court for his preliminary hearing on May 13th.

Heckuva Job, ICE Princess.

I actually don't need to ask what all the Gitmo Truthers--the liberals who say we should shut down Guantanamo Bay and that the men there are just innocent people, not terrorists--will say about Abdallah Salih Al-Ajmi.

They'll probably say--in their usual know-it-all, anti-America tone--that we "drove him to do it," that he was an "innocent man, whose hatred for America was bred by imprisonment at Gitmo," or some such other BS. They're so predictable.

Al-Ajmi was freed from Guantanmo Bay after being brought there in 2002 from Afghanistan and relesed 3.5 years later. On Wednesday, the U.S. military said he took part in a suicide car bombing in Iraq. Funny how this guy picked up in Afghanistan ended up in Iraq--even though he's from Kuwait and that's where we dumped him--huh? The military says that Al-Ajmi took part in one of three homicide bombings in the last month, which targeted Iraqi security forces in Mosul. At least he didn't kill any Americans . . . as far as we know.

And we knew he wanted to kill Americans. He said so. A U.S. military document shows that, in August 2004, Al-Ajmi said that

he now is a jihadist, an enemy combatant, and that he will kill as many Americans as he possibly can.

Since these same Gitmo Truthers are always telling us how honest and sincere the kind Gitmo Muslim are, why didn't we take Al-Ajmi at his word?

Al-Ajmi is one of at least 36 released Gitmo detainees have taken part in terrorist attacks on Americans. Just how many of these future killers of Americans are we going to continue to release before we finally admit they must stay at Gitmo ad infinitum to save lives.

Navy Cmdr. Jeffrey Gordon, a Pentagon spokesman, told AP:

There is an implied future risk to U.S. and allied interests with every detainee who is released or transferred from Guantanamo.

No kidding. When will the Pentagon listen to its own spokesman's advice?

And when will their lack of alleged minor suffering be less of a priority than American lives?

We are fighting the war of our lives as if we were playing house.

With gas here in Detroit now an average of over $4 per gallon, Chrysler made a brilliant move, guaranteeing gas at $2.99 per gallon for 2-3 years to new car buyers.

But for those who can't afford a new car, or aren't inclined to take up the Chrysler deal, here are a few places to check the cheapest gas in your area, the best fuel economy on cars, and other ways to save--courtesy of a Wall Street Journal graphic--on the poisonous Saudi Soda, which is holding America hostage:

- Cheapest Gas in Your Area:

* Gas Price Watch

* Lowest Gas Prices w/ Maps

- Alternative Fuels & Prices

The bottom line is that George W. Bush, who constantly whined about America's addiction to oil in his State of the Union addresses, never did anything about it. He had almost 7.5 years to put together a "Manhattan Project" on alternative fuels.

And, instead, during that time, instead of doing that, he held hands with Saudi King Abdullah and kept the rest of the Saudi Soda purveyors at the top of their game. After all, his main priority now--and always--was never ending America's dependence on OPEC oil. And now, it is primarily on getting Daddy's friends to donate to his Presidential library like they did to Poppy's and Slick Willie's.

***

Here's a humorous take, sent to me by my friend, Boston Herald Business columnist Darren Garnick, "The Working Stiff's Asinine Gas Saving Tips."

Many people have asked me about Paul Welday, a Republican primary candidate for the Michigan House of Representatives from the Detroit suburbs of Farmington and Farmington Hills. They know I own the websites PaulWelday.com, .net, and .org.

Knowing his disturbing record, I bought those domain names for the day when Paul Welday ultimately fulfilled his dark dream to run for public office. Now, sadly, that day has arrived.

I have known Paul Welday for over two decades, and he is a political hack who is in the back pocket of Islamists in CAIR (HAMAS front-group, Council on American-Islamic Relations) and an Iranian terrorist group. He's a well-paid lobbyist for a number of organizations that don't have America's best interests at heart (and he's played the other side, trying to get Jewish lobbying money, too).

* Paul Welday & Muslim Alien Medicaid Fraud/Islamic Anchor Babies

Welday's brother, Doug Welday, is the Chief Financial Officer of Oakwood Hospital, the hospital raided in 2002 by the FBI for knowingly engaging in Medicare fraud, helping Muslim aliens deliver their children here courtesy of U.S. taxpayers. Surprise!--Welday's the lobbyist for Oakwood.

That Medicaid fraud continues to this day, and thanks to Paul's brother (and Paul's lobbying), you continue to pay for this, and these Muslim aliens get American birth certificates and citizenship for their children, which they can sell on the open market. Doug Welday has performed well in conducting Oakwood's "finances" because he continues to perpetrate Medicaid fraud for pregnant Islamic alien women at his hospital and to cheat you, the American taxpayers. Millions and possibly billions of dollars involved.

Oakwood Hospital was never prosecuted for this continuing crime, of which Welday's brother is well aware (in a court, he'd be called a "co-conspirator"). And, sources say, that has something to do with the fact that Paul Welday sat on the Republican selection committee that helped recommend to President Bush candidates for U.S. Attorney and the Federal Bench (Welday raised over $100,000 for Bush). A man Welday helped recommend, U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy III, is the only man who can prosecute Oakwood Hospital. And--shocker!--so far Murphy has declined to do so. Yesterday, Murphy had his U.S. Senate Confirmation hearings for the Federal Judge nomination Bush gave him.

You know how political hacks operate: You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. In Welday's case, it's kept his brother in the cushy life and out of prison and lined Welday's pockets with hefty Oakwood "lobbying" fees.

* How Paul Welday Got Millions in Tax $$$ for Hezbollah

Welday has a long past of pan-Islamism. In 2000, I asked him why he got his then-boss, pan-Islamist Congressman Joe Knollenberg--for whom Welday was Chief of Staff--to introduce a bill seeking $268 million for "South Lebanon" a/k/a Hezbollah. He told me, and The Detroit News, that he was doing it at the behest of the openly pro-HAMAS/pro-Hezbollah Jim Zogby of the Arab American Institute.

In the end, Welday and Knollenberg succeeded in getting $86 million. All of it went to Hezbollah, and Welday never conducted any oversight. Why would he? His boss received thousands of dollars from Hezbollah agent Nijad Fares (whose father was the Hezbollah-backed Deputy Prime Minister of Lebanon) and from the Hezbollah-allied American Task Force For Lebanon, Fares' PAC.

* Paul Welday & His CAIR Buddies

In 2004, I went undercover to a CAIR-Michigan election event. It was open to the public, and I went to see who in Michigan would be appearing and what they would say to get extremist Muslims to vote for them. I was "outed" at the event, but not before most people--including Paul Welday--spoke. For the most part, I wasn't surprised by who appeared and what they said.

I wasn't even mildly surprised when I saw and heard Welday speak on behalf of the Bush re-election effort and told the CAIR crowd that they were the most democratic group of people he's ever seen. And when he morally equated Israelis victims of terrorist attacks with Yasser Arafat, I can't say I'm surprised that this two-faced well-paid lobbyist did so. He thought he was "among (Muslim) friends."

On that day, I decided to buy PaulWelday.com, .net, and .org, because I knew of Welday's dream--and America's nightmare--of his running for Congress, where he still ultimately wants to end up. And, on those site, I wrote up my little "experience" hearing the real Paul, or at least seeing yet another of his many faces. Here's a little taste:

Is President Bush really the anti-terror President?

Then, why was his campaign honcho, Oakland County, Michigan Republican Chairman Paul Welday, praising a HAMAS front-group as having "shown the most commitment to democracy of any group I've ever known"?

And why did Welday (pfw@renaissancestrategies.us) equate Israeli efforts to eliminate terrorists with mass homicide bombings in pizza shops and coffee houses?

Welday isn't just anybody. He was one of the few Bush "Pioneers" in 2000, raising over $100,000 for the campaign. In the important swing State of Michigan, Welday, a lobbyist, regularly appears on Michigan television on behalf of Bush and the GOP.

On Sunday, Welday, appeared on behalf of President Bush (at the White House's and Congressman Joe Knollenberg's request) at the Michigan candidate forum held by the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR).

"Appeared" is a loose term. "Pandered" is more accurate. . . .

In his remarks, Welday, told the CAIR-Michigan audience:

This group - many of you - friends of mine - does a great job of showing the balance of the Muslim community as committed Americans . . . . You have shown the most commitment to democracy of any group I've ever known.

Even more nauseating, Welday went on to equate efforts to fight terrorism with the terrorism attacks themselves. "We need to stop the [Israeli's] sending of missiles into the Gaza Strip. We need to stop the violence on both sides."

Israeli missiles in Gaza were directed specifically--and successfully--at HAMAS and other terrorist leaders. The latest was in response to Palestinian terrorists' murder of two young Ethiopian Israeli boys while they were playing outside.

Paul Welday apparently thinks those leaders deserve to live to continue masterminding their mass murders of women and children eating pizza, drinking coffee, and playing ball. In Welday's world, terrorists and their victims are morally equivalent. . . .

WELDAY'S HISTORY OF TERROR-PANDERING

Welday, who hopes to run for Congress, isn't new to the terror-pander industry. As chief of staff to Congressman Joe Knollenberg (R-Michigan), he sought $268 million in tax-funds for Hezbollah-controlled Southern Lebanon, at the request of Jim Zogby of the Arab-American Institute (who also heads up Arab-American Democrats and was a Gore campaign senior advisor). That's almost a million for every U.S. Marine Hezbollah murdered. Welday's boss, Knollenberg, was repaid for this effort, receiving big campaign dollars from Nijad Fares, son of Hezbollah-backed Lebanese Deputy Prime Minister Issam Fares.

* Paul Welday Paid Off by Iranian Terrorist Group That Held Americans Hostage

In September of last year (2007), Welday wrote a guest opinion column in the Detroit Free Press, asking for America to take Mujahedeen-e Khalq (MEK) off the State Department Terrorist List. According to the column, he is a paid lobbyist for MEK's American front group, Iran Policy Committee. But MEK was not only part of Khomeini's Iranian revolution, it took part in the 1979 seizure the U.S. embassy in Tehran and the 444-day kidnapping of U.S. hostages. And in 1991, MEK helped Saddam Hussein murder Shi'ites and Kurds who rebelled.

This is who is lining Paul Welday's pockets.

* How Paul Welday Spent Your Tax $$ . . . @ the Gym

I saw first-hand what kind of "public servant" Paul Welday will be. When he was on the taxpayer dole, as Chief of Staff for Congressman Knollenberg, we worked out at the same gym. I kept track of how I regularly saw him there, working out for hours during the business day on the almost $150,000 per year salary paid for by American taxpayers. Yup, you paid for him to work out. Predictably, when he left Knollenberg to make even more money as a lobbyist, he stopped spending the workday at the gym and got back to his old, corpulent self. Because he was no longer on your dime.

* WHAT YOU CAN DO TO STOP PAN-ISLAMIST PAUL WELDAY FROM GETTING ELECTED

Richard Lerner, a longtime Republican and a strong candidate, is running against Paul Welday in the Republican primary. Unlike Paul Welday, he has spent his life in the private sector as an economist and businessman. Also, unlike Welday, Mr. Lerner is endorsed by local and community leaders and residents, whereas Welday is endorsed by the same old, tired, career hacks, including the anti-Semitic, drunk Brooks Patterson, the "county executive" who has taxed and increased my county government spending geometrically.

I urge you to help him and to donate to his campaign.

Regardless of where you live, if you are a U.S. citizen, you can donate to Richard Lerner's campaign and can give up to $500, the Michigan campaign finance limit. Again, you do not need to be a Michigan resident to donate. This race has important implications for our entire nation.

And, of course, if you live or know anyone who lives in the Detroit suburbs of Farmington or Farmington Hills, Michigan, please tell them to vote for Richard Lerner in the August 5th Republican primary. And tell anyone who lives nearby to volunteer and help out in his campaign.

This is so very important.

We cannot afford for Paul Welday--enabler of Medicaid fraud and friend of CAIR, Hezbollah, and Iranian terrorist group MEK--to get elected to the Michigan Legislature . . . or any legislature.

NOT PAID FOR BY ANY CANDIDATE OR CANDIDATE COMMITTEE.

I enjoyed watching the cat-fight between Donald Trump and Rosie O'Donnell (yes, in my book, a cat-fight can also be between two men, like Trump and O'Donnell) and was sorry when it ended.

But this new cat-fight comes close enough. Two other "View"-hags (vapid, past their expiration date, participants on ABC's anti-male yenta-fest, "The View") are now fighting.

You'll recall that, earlier this walk, I wrote a column on Barbara Walters' latest outrageous behavior in outing 88-year-old former U.S. Senator Edward Brooke and telling the world in her new book, "Audition," that she had an affair with him while he was married.

Feuds I Wish Would Never End:

Baba Wawa v. Star Jones . . .

HAMAS v. Fatah . . .

Donald v. Rosie . . .

Walters discussed it on a taping of another hag-fest, "The Oprah Winfrey Show." She also dissed equally-annoying former View-hag Star Jones, saying that Jones got so fat, she had trouble waddling onto the set, and discussing Jones' insistence that no-one tell the truth about Jones' gastric bypass.

Now, Jones responds:

It is a sad day when an icon like Barbara Walters, in the sunset of her life, is reduced to publicly branding herself as an adulterer, humiliating an innocent family with accounts of her illicit affair and speaking negatively against me all for the sake of selling a book. It speaks to her true character.

Longtime readers of this site know that I'm no fan of the haughty, race-baiting, idioytic Jones, who once praised Limerick Nelson, the man who killed an innocent Jewish man in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, in a hate-crime, during an Al Sharpton-inspired riot. She also urged us to "understand" the Passover Massacre homicide bombing Islamic terrorists, the day after they attacked and murdered families celebrating Passover in 2002. By the way, Walters--who says she finds HAMAS homicide bombers "amusing"--and the rest of "The View" hags agreed with her.

Still, I can't stand Walters, either. And I'm not alone in my disdain for these two human barf-bags and the other uber-annoying women whose tushies and empty heads fill the still-empty seats on that stupid show.

A pox on all their houses.

Alieness v. Predatorette. Can't wait for the sequel.

Today is the 60th birthday of Israel.

It's not only a calendar milestone, but a fantastic achievement, considering the tiny state has for six decades fought off large armies from all of its neighbors and ceaseless terrorist attacks from within.

Despite not a single day of peace for the Jewish State, Israel survived because of a historic will of the Jewish people to survive, to be strong--despite a stereotype of the opposite--in the face of all enemies.

Today, Israel is not as strong as it once was. That's not because of its enemies, which have always been and will always be there, regardless of what phony, empty pieces of paper are signed. It is not as strong because of weak-minded "leaders," like Ehud Olmert and Tzipi Livni, and before them, Ariel Sharon, who forcibly removed Jews from their Israeli homes, Judenrein-style. And because of spineless, weak, unelected Jewish liberal "leaders" in America, who have pushed the country to this point.

Now, there is talk--as there has been for well over a decade, actually--of giving Syria the strategic Golan Heights, against the wish of not just the Jews who irrigated and developed the area, but the many Druze Arabs who did the same and who enjoy the freedom and safety of being Israelis. They are loyal Israelis, and they want to keep their homes in Israel, just as Jews--many of whom were persecuted and treated like trash in their former Arab Muslim country ancestral homes--do.

Despite being a tiny state, just smaller than the size of New Jersey, the Gross Domestic Product of Israel is greater than that of all of its Arab neighbors. Israel has provided America, and America's military, the greatest in technological advancements. The country has provided the world with amazing advances in healthcare and tremendous medical advancements and discoveries to cure cancers, diseases, and other medical maladies. You see none of this in the backward Greater Barbaria that surrounds it and which produces only "advancements" in levels of hatred and desire to eliminate the Jewish people.

But, despite the hateful neighbors surrounding it, terrorist interlopers within, and Neville Chamberlain-esque "leadership" disaster at the top, Israel has survived for 60 years, officially--though it has been the home of the Jewish people for thousands of years.

And, G-d-willing, Israel will be around in another 60. Yom Huledet Sameach, Yisrael--Happy Birthday, Israel!

Here is a video of Israel's national anthem, "HaTikvah"--"The Hope" with English translation of the lyrics, also posted below, and one of my favorite HaTikvah videos--of beautiful Israeli singer, Shiri Maimon, at an Israeli soccer game:

English lyrics from the Israel Science and Technology Page:

As long as deep in the heart,

The soul of a Jew yearns,

And forward to the East

To Zion, an eye looks

Our hope will not be lost,

The hope of two thousand years,

To be a free nation in our land,

The land of Zion and Jerusalem.

(Listen to a moving version of HaTikvah sung by Jews just liberated from Bergen Belsen concentration camp in 1945.)

Here are a couple of videos, outlining what Israel has done for the world, and what we'd be missing if there were no Israel. You've never seen--and you never will--of this kind of stuff coming out of any Arab or Muslim nation. The producer, Holly, writes:

The State of Israel has entered its sixth decade of wondrous achievements!

People keep asking me: "why do you support Israel?"
This video is my answer.

Israel is quite simply a modern marvel, and all of this without knowing a day free of war or terror and being the largest immigrant-absorbing nation on earth.

Oh, and don't forget, without Israel, Saddam Hussein would have had nuclear weapons.

Every major city in America has what I call the "hometown pimp and ho rag." It's the free newspaper that's insufferably far left and which makes its money with hooker, er . . . "escort" classified ads and the like in the back.

Detroit's version is "The Metro Times." My friend, Corey Hall, is one of the bright (and very liberal) movie reviewers for the MT. Corey is very insightful, and I enjoy sitting next to him at movie screenings to hear his comments and asides about the movies we're reviewing, even if I disagree with his politics.

But Corey's politics are not this ridiculous. Check out the absurd political correctness--quite clearly not his and very likely his editors' (though I haven't asked him)--that changed his movie review and garnered a letter to the editor by an Indian in response. Again, for the record, I did not ask Corey about this and he hasn't mentioned it, but I happened to notice, and knowing him, I think this is what happened.

Corey Hall reviewed the horrid "Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay." It stars Kal Penn as an American whose family comes from India. In his review, Corey apparently wrote, in the April 30th issue:

The best political argument here is that we've reached the point where a Korean and an Indian can star in movies just as stupid as any white guy . . . but in a perfect world they wouldn't have to.

But it appears that when PC copy editors got ahold of it, they changed the un-PC word "Indian." Here's how it ran:

The best political argument here is that we've reached the point where a Korean and a Native American can star in movies just as stupid as any white guy . . . but in a perfect world they wouldn't have to.

That drew this letter to the editor, from an American who family's heritage is from India--a letter truly best meant for the Metro Times' uber-PC editors:

Re: Cory Hall's review of the film Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay (Metro Times, April 30) and his observation, "The best political argument here is that we've reached the point where a Korean and a Native American can star in movies just as stupid as any white guy . . . but in a perfect world they wouldn't have to."

I'm not sure if this quote from the Harold and Kumar review was meant to be humor or not. Granted, the movie was dumb. But if you really want to present yourself as an "artsy" educated person or news source with discerning taste, you might try and learn the difference between Indian and Native American.

Indians are from a country in Asia called India; Native Americans are indigenous peoples from North or South American [sic]. My friends and I got quite a laugh out of your mitake. Maybe it comes from your Michigan public school education. I don't know.

What I do know is you might need to step up your game. I live in Boston and from time to time I visit your Web site; I mean I think it's good, but this is not making people from Michigan look any more educated than people outside Michigan already think you are.

Good luck. - Michael Jain, Boston, Mass

Like I said, Corey's a smart guy. He knows the difference between Indians from India and Indians referred to with the PC-term, "Native American." This is likely an editor's uber-PC-stylebook taking the place of good sense.

But the letter led the Metro Times to realize their hyper-PC screw-up. This week, in the May 7th issue, the review was re-run, using the hyphenated term, "Indian-American."

Oh, the hopelessness of the political correctness crowd.

I've written many times on this site about my opposition to "registered traveler" programs. They speed travelers who pay $100 and pass a background check through airport security without a second look. As I've always said--and the TSA finally admitted--this is a program ripe for terrorist exploitation. Any terrorist without a criminal background can qualify.

Now, there is a new version of "registered traveler" that Homeland Security is introducing at airports for those entering the country to speed through U.S. Customs. It's called "Global Entry," and it's even more dangerous, and it has the same loophole. It also costs just $100, and, oddly, Stephen Brill, the same gazillionaire who had much of the Registered Traveler contract, praises Global Entry. Interesting coincidence, no? Does he have the government contract to run Global Entry? Press coverage doesn't say, but it sounds like it.

If anyone wants to smuggle weapons or cash from terrorist groups inside or even valuables that can be sold and turned into cash, they can easily do it without the regular scrutiny of U.S. Customs and Border Protection inspectors at airport "ports of entry."

Sadly, though the TSA admitted the loophole in the Registered Traveler program and abandoned its expansion (it should have canceled the program in its entirety), the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing at DHS, and the identical program will now start for U.S. Citizens and legal permanent residents who pay the $100 and pass the basic background check:

Starting Monday, air travelers can sign up to speed through Customs checkpoints at select U.S. airports when they return from trips abroad.

A government program called Global Entry will enable U.S. citizens and permanent residents to avoid the long lines that often greet them when they get off airplanes arriving from international destinations.

People who pass a background check and pay $100 to enroll will enter a separate Customs line at certain airports. They will swipe their passport at a kiosk instead of having it read by a Customs officer and electronically answer questions similar to those on a Customs declaration form. If no problems arise, they will be cleared through Customs.

The program will start operating June 10 at three airports — Washington Dulles, Houston Intercontinental and New York's Kennedy. Customs and Border Protection expects it will expand to 17 other major U.S. airports, program director John Wagner says. There is no timeline for expansion.

Tourism and travel groups hail the program, saying it will speed up Customs lines and could boost a similar program for domestic airline passengers. . . .

Global Entry could heighten interest in Registered Traveler, a program overseen by the Transportation Security Administration that creates a separate line at airport checkpoints for fee-paying passengers.

"The whole idea of voluntary credentialing gets helped the more you have programs like (Global Entry)," says Steven Brill, CEO of Verified Identity Pass, a New York company that manages Registered Traveler programs at 16 airports.

Wagner of Customs and Border Protection says Global Entry is aimed at people who take at least four international trips a year. Applicants will be barred if they have a criminal conviction, a penalty related to customs or immigration issues or are on a government watch list of people linked to terrorism, Wagner says.

Hmmm . . . If I were Bin Laden or Nasrallah of Hezbollah I'd be recruiting sympathetic U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents (a ton of 'em in Dearbornistan, etc.) with no criminal record to join the Global Entry program. They could smuggle all kinds of stuff into the states for "operations."

If you want to come into America, there should be long lines and there should be strict scrutiny of what you're brining in.

This new program is a giant national security black hole created by Michael "Serpenthead" Chertoff.

**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ****

Great news out of Buffalo. A member of the Lackawanna Six Al-Qaeda terror cell has just been released from federal prison after a veeery short stay there.

And he's moved to my backyard. Faysal Galab, 1/6th of the Lackawanna Six, has been moved to a halfway house in Detroit. GUH-REAT. Now, he can commune with his Al-Qaeda compatriots in Dearbornistan. Awesome. (Watch this 29 second video.)

Need more evidence we're not serious about fighting terrorism domestically? This is it in at least a couple of ways:

1) A guy pleads guilty in 2003, to being a member of an Al-Qaeda cell, to aiding Al-Qaeda, and receiving training in an Al-Qaeda training campin Afghanistan--and he's already out? Hello . . .? People spend more time in prison for drunk driving, and the feds are trying to send attorney Geoffrey Fieger to prison for at least 10 years for violating federal campaign finance limits. Galab will be completely released from federal custody in October, into the Great American Abyss. Wow, we're really serious about gettin' those evildoers, aren't we?

2) When this Al-Qaeda cell member gets out of prison, we send him to the most radical, most concentrated Muslim population center in America? Hello #2 . . .?

Galab was born in America, so--you know--we gotta treat him right, unlike treasonous others who weren't born in America, like the Rosenbergs. Oh, wait--they were born in America. They just picked the wrong time to betray America, a time when someone actually cared.

Welcome, Arab-American Faysal Galab. I'm sure you'll find many friends in Dearbornistan.

Since I know that Sunnis and Shi'ites work together when it comes to defeating us infidels, I think you'll find a few friends in Osama Siblani, Ali Jawad (both are Shi'ite), and Imad Hamad (Sunni).

Have fun. Clearly, the brainless feds aren't watching you. They're too busy watching their agents' mouths to make sure they don't utter "jihadist" and "Islamic terrorist," both of which you are. Time for you to gather your buddies and have an Al-Qaeda "Tupperware Party."

America . . . Desperate But Not Serious in the War on Terror.

Thanks to vigilant Buffalo reader "P," who sent this tip.

**** UPDATE: Investigator Bill Warner, who is an expert on the Islamic terrorism/used car connection and who got several Al-Qaeda websites shut down recently (FOX News reported on him), sends this Federal Bureau of Prisons link on Galab's new home, about an hour or so from Detroit and writes:

FAYSAL GALAB is at CCM DETROIT 4026 E. ARKONA RD MILAN, MI 48160, his parole ends 10/18/2008, just 5 months away !

5 months on parole, for FAYSAL GALAB the ex-New York State car dealer and al-Qaeda supporter, what a joke.

Exactly. And he wasn't even just a supporter. He was member. Membership has its privileges, apparently, since you barely get any jailtime for trying to bring down America.
