Syrian Rebels backed by NATO are Muslim extremists!

Syrian Rebels Ransack Christian Churches

NATO-backed thugs desecrate places of worship

Shocking images have emerged which show the aftermath of Christian churches ransacked by NATO-backed Syrian rebels, illustrating once again how western powers are supporting Muslim extremists in their bid to achieve regime change in the middle east.

A photograph provided to us by a Christian woman in Homs, scene of some of the bloodiest clashes of the conflict, shows a member of the Free Syrian Army posing with a looted Catholic cross in one hand and a gun in the other while wearing a priest’s robe.

“Everyone knows simply removing these garments from the church is a sin. The priest is the only one who wears them too. They even pray before putting them on. Him posing in front of the funeral car as well is disgusting to the max,” our source told us.

“They destroyed the church and went in to film it. I know this for a fact.”

“The Robes can only be worn by Deacons or Priests or Sub-Deacons, and they a Christian man wouldn’t hold a Cross in one hand and a gun in another,” the woman adds

Another image shows a ransacked church in Bustan al-Diwan (Old Homs).

While Syrian rebels busy themselves ransacking Christian churches, they also rallying around the Al-Qaeda flag just as their counterparts did in Libya.

This video shows Syrian “activists” flying the Al-Qaeda flag during an anti-Assad protest in the northern Syrian town of Binnish.
In another clip, armed Syrian rebels address the camera standing behind a table draped with the black Al-Qaeda flag.
Last month we highlighted a photo published by French news agency AFP shows a Syrian rebel wearing the Al-Qaeda flag on his arm accompanying UN observers in the village of Azzara.
Why are western governments who are supposed to be engaged in a ‘war on terror’ against radical Muslim terrorists handing those very same terrorists control over entire countries?

A third image sent by our source shows another place of worship, Church Um Al Zinar, with part of its roof missing thanks to Syrian rebels who have been portrayed by the international media as saints despite their involvement in terrorist bombings and massacres.
The latest terror attack carried out by rebels occurred earlier today when gunmen stormed a pro-government TV station, bombing buildings and shooting dead three employees.

The sight of NATO-backed rebels desecrating Christian places of worship is becoming a recurring theme.

Back in March we reported on shocking video footage which showed Libyan rebels desecrating Christian and Jewish graves at a cemetery.

The clip shows Libyan rebels breaking apart headstones while shouting “Allahu Akbar”. The men later try to smash up a large Christian cross statue with sledgehammers.

U.S. Poverty Rate On Rise Despite $1 Trillion Spent To Combat It

by Tony Lee 

Ronald Reagan once quipped that we had a war on poverty and poverty won. And according to a new study by the Cato Institute titled “The American Welfare State: How We Spend Nearly $1 Trillion a Year Fighting Poverty—and Fail,” poverty is still on its winning streak even though the federal government, like it does with failing schools, keeps pumping in money into anti-poverty programs with no rhyme or reason, not knowing if the dollars the government spends actually are being spent wisely and properly. 

The poverty rate has risen to 15.1 percent and, according to the study, the federal government will spend “more than $668 billion on at least 126 different programs to fight poverty,” and “that does not even begin to count welfare spending by state and local governments, which adds $284 billion to that figure.” 

According to Cato, the United States spends nearly $1 trillion annually on anti-poverty programs, which amounts to $20,610 for every person living in poverty or $61,830 for a family of three in poverty.

Like with nearly every bit of domestic spending, the study found that “welfare spending increased significantly under President George W. Bush and has exploded under President Barack Obama” to the tune of a 41 percent increase. 

And yet, despite nearly $15 trillion spent fighting poverty since Lyndon Johnson declared war on poverty in 1964, the study found that “the poverty rate is perilously close to where we began more than 40 years ago.”

“Clearly we are doing something wrong,” the authors of the study write. “Throwing money at the problem has neither reduced poverty nor made the poor self-sufficient.”

Stockton City Council Votes in Favor of Bankruptcy Budget

By BOBBY WHITE By MAX TAVES

Associated Press

The Stockton City Council listened to statements from citizens Tuesday.

STOCKTON, Calif.—The city of Stockton, Calif., late Tuesday voted to adopt a new budget under which it can operate if it is under bankruptcy, a move widely considered the last step before it formally files for Chapter 9 protection.
At a Stockton City Council meeting Tuesday, members voted 6-1 in favor of the budget, which allows the city to pay for day-to-day operations while it is in bankruptcy protection. While the Council didn't formally declare that Stockton is bankrupt, officials said filing for Chapter 9 protection is the city's only option.
Council member Paul Canepa, who voted for the budget, said, "With a heavy heart, I will be supporting this...I'm very sorry for this decision but I have to do this."
Marc Levinson, Stockton's bankruptcy attorney, said the city and its creditors tried to reach deals but the "gap was too deep."
City officials are expected to officially file for Chapter 9 protection sometime this week, possibly as early as Wednesday.
Under the new budget, Stockton will cut $10 million in debt payments to creditors, scale back retiree health care, and cut employee salaries and benefits. Under California law, Stockton must adopt a balanced budget by July 1.
"This is a sad, sad day for the city of Stockton," Stockton Mayor Ann Johnson said during the meeting.
Chapter 9 bankruptcy protection provides a financially distressed municipality protection from its creditors while it develops a plan for adjusting its debts. Creditors cannot demand a liquidation of assets to force the municipality, while under protection, to repay debts.
Stockton, with 300,000 residents and $700 million in debt, would be one of the largest cities ever to file for Chapter 9 protection, according to municipal finance experts and bankruptcy officials. Bridgeport, Conn., which filed in June 1991, was the largest city to seek bankruptcy by population, with 141,000 residents, according to U.S. Bankruptcy Court records. And up till now, the largest city to file for bankruptcy by debt load was Vallejo, Calif., which owed $50 million to creditors when it entered bankruptcy protection in 2008. Vallejo emerged from insolvency last year.
Stockton has spiraled into a morass of debt because of high retiree costs and big spending on a downtown revitalization effort, coupled with falling property-tax revenues because of the real-estate downturn, among other factors.
In February, Stockton began negotiating with 19 parties, including retirees and city workers, under a California law that requires municipalities to try mediation before filing for Chapter 9 bankruptcy. That mediation process expired Monday.
At the City Council meeting Tuesday, dozens of retirees spoke and expressed concern over the effects that a bankruptcy would have on their medical benefits.
Gary Jones, 52 years old, who retired from Stockton's Police Department in 2006 after the discovery of a malignant brain tumor, was among former city workers worried about their health care.
"I have tons of medications I take every day. I have facial seizures," he said, adding that if Stockton declares bankruptcy, "I won't have insurance."
Stockton faces pressure on how to handle retiree costs, with retiree health care costs expected to increase by 115% and pension costs by 94% by 2022. Retiree costs represent nearly 20% of the city's $150 million budget.
Bob Deis, Stockton's city manager, said during the meeting the city had committed $600,000 to $1 million to retirees' health-care costs and "we've set aside nothing."
