Absolute Courage – 7 Year old boy dies trying to protect sister from Rapist

This comes via Breit Bart:

The Back Story via Russia Today:

Just over two months ago Galina lost her son and she’s still struggling to get over the shock.

Zhenya was brutally murdered by a robber, as the boy was trying to save his 12-year-old sister from being raped.

It all happened in late November, in the small military town of Noginsk-9 – a place where even small crimes are rare.

Around midday, a man rang the bell of the flat where Zhenya and his family lived.

“I asked who it was. The man said he was the postman, and he needed to give us a telegram and get a signature. So I opened the door,” recalls Zhenya’s sister Yana.

The little girl says the man held a knife to her throat, and demanded that her brother bring him all the money he could find. Zhenya did as he was told. But when the man started undressing his sister it was more than the boy could bear.

Zhenya seized a knife from the kitchen and plunged it into the man’s back. This didn’t kill the attacker, but it was enough to set Zhenya’s sister free. She ran for help. But it was too late for her brother – he was stabbed eight times.

Thirty-five-year old Sergey Kiyashko is in custody accused of the murder.  Police say they have all the evidence they need to convict him.

There is indeed a special place in Heaven for young boys like this. May he rest in the Holy Peace of Christ. May the foul beast that committed this horrible crime to this young boy never see the outside of a jail cell again.  😡

Sickening Report: World Bank Destroys Albanian Village and then Covers it up

This is absolutely sickening to read.  😡

Managers at the World Bank provided false information to the agency’s board of directors about a $39 million, politically-connected European “coastal cleanup” project that led to the destruction and destitution of a powerless village in Albania in 2007 — and then spent nearly two years trying to cover it up, FOX News has learned.

Bank insiders also misled and stonewalled a panel of independent investigators commissioned by the board to investigate the scandal, according to the investigators themselves.

World Bank sources tell FOX News that the panel’s report, submitted to the 24-member board in late November, is one of the most damning independent assessments of the anti-poverty agency’s behavior in the bank’s 60-year history. The bank, the world’s largest and most influential anti-poverty institution and part of the U.N. system, is doling out $100 billion over the next three years for development projects.

For its part, once the report leaked in Albania last week, the bank announced that further disbursements of the loan for the Albanian project had been temporarily suspended on Jan. 9 “due to certain outstanding policy and operational issues.” A World Bank spokesman did not comment to FOX News by press time.

I hope like hell, whomever was responsible for doing this, is brought to justice. The very notion that the organization like the World Bank can just come in and destroy someone’s home is disgusting. May whomever carried this out rot in the Devil’s hell.

Don’t expect our Government to say anything about this, as it is well-known that the World Bank controls much of what goes on in this country as well.

Justice is Served – Conn. judge suspended 8 months for slurs at arrest

Glad to see that there is justice.

A judge charged with drunken driving and videotaped using racial slurs while arguing with police officers was suspended without pay Monday for eight months by a judicial review panel.

Superior Court Judge E. Curtissa Cofield, who was confirmed as Connecticut’s first black female judge in 1991, apologized to the state Judicial Review Council.

“I regret that my actions may have tarnished the institution that I love,” she said. “I’ve embarrassed and humiliated my family and loved ones, and disappointed my friends.”

The panel determined, by unanimous vote, that Cofield’s “disparaging and demeaning” comments failed to live up to the standards of integrity and impartiality expected of judges. The council could have imposed up to a one-year suspension and recommended her permanent removal by the Connecticut Supreme Court, but instead settled on the lesser suspension.

Cofield told reporters she would not appeal.

While I hate to see anyone lose their jobs. I believe that the actions of this woman were quit unbecoming of someone in the law profession, much less a judge of her stature. I am hoping that this woman gets well and comes back to work with a great appreciation of what she has. Her sentence was very justified. let’s hope the punishment works.

The United States Army loses track of Nerve Gas

Sweet Jesus on a crouton, no wonder Ronald Reagan said Government is the problem!  Now this is one of them stories that makes you think that crazy people are running the asylum!

Is the Army missing some nerve gas?

Pentagon auditors concede that is a remote possibility because of discrepancies in records between how much chemical weapons agent was initially stored and how much of it was later destroyed at Utah’s Deseret Chemical Depot and other bases nationwide.

But officials believe all the nerve agent in question was destroyed, according to a partially censored U.S. Army Audit Agency report obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request. Auditors list in it several reasons that could have caused apparent-but-unreal variances in those records.

But auditors concluded, “The (Army Chemical Materials) Agency didn’t have complete assurance that amounts recorded in the system were accurate, which increased its chances for heightened levels of program scrutiny by federal, state and international organizations that have a vested interest in the elimination of chemical weapons.”

Such words can cause shivers among Utahns who remember such things as the death of thousands of sheep in Skull Valley in 1968 that were blamed on nerve gas tests that went awry at nearby Dugway Proving Ground, and Skull Valley residents who have blamed mysterious illnesses on exposure to tiny amounts of nerve agent from such tests.

via Deseret News | Nerve agent may be missing.

Oy. This is one time, when I can honestly say that I quite happy not to be living in Utah!  😮 I mean, seriously; how the heck hard is it to keep track of Nerve Gas?

First Nukes being flown over residential neighborhoods and being shipped to China by mistake. Good grief.

Some Changes…..

I can be accused of many things. But being accused of not listening to what people say, is not one of them.

Someone over at Freedom’s Phoenix complained about the fact that this Blog had too many ads. At first, I dismissed it.

But after thinking about it, I had to admit, he was kinda right.

So, I’ve made some changes, I’ve gotten rid of some ads. Actually, I have gotten rid of a ton of them.

Only Advertisements left are BlogAds, which pay me, when someone wants to run an ad here. Which is a nice service.

The only others now are AdToll, Adsense, Adbrite and Project Wonderful which is an Ad bid system.

Gone are the ads from Commission Junction and Linkshare, which were pay per action ads, that were not paying me a dime.

Hopefully this improves the expereince of those coming from Freedom’s Phoenix. I mean, I have to make some money at this. Capitalism is America, after all.

The Road to European Socialism just got a bit shorter

Via the New York Times, it seems that the economic socialist stimulus plan has passed a procedural vote:

Senate Democrats on Monday advanced the $838 billion economic stimulus bill, clearing a major procedural hurdle by a razor thin margin with the help of just three Republicans. A vote on final passage of the bill is expected on Tuesday.

The Senate vote, by 61 to 36, to close debate on the stimulus, symbolized the partisanship that still grips Congress despite President Obama’s call for new cooperation. It also highlighted the rising power of the centrist Republicans who cast the critical votes. Under Senate rules, it takes 60 votes to invoke cloture and usher a bill to a vote.

Those votes, by Senators Susan Collins and Olympia J. Snowe of Maine and Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, along with the 56 Democrats and two Independents who regularly vote with them, followed a succession of floor speeches by Republicans criticizing the stimulus as a bloated, wasteful spending bill.

But supporters of the measure said that a good, bipartisan effort had been made at drafting a compromise bill.

“I am proud of the bipartisan work that we have done during the last 10 days,” said Ms. Collins, who supplied one of the three crucial Republican votes. “As with any major legislation, this bill is not perfect, but it can go a long way toward creating jobs and addressing the dire economic crisis facing our nation.”

The majority leader, Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, said: “The United States senators from both parties met the seriousness of the economic crisis with an earnest approach to solving this emergency.”

Well, as you can see, the Republican Party, the part that is supposed to be the party of small Government and low taxes, has once again capitulated to “The One.” Remember this come election time.

Humble Request for Donations

I did have another posting on here, basically giving quite a long story about why I’m asking for donations.

Well, some smart-mouthed person, who seems to think that she’s “God’s appointed” judge and jury of people like me, left a rather nasty comment. Needless to say, she got told what I thought of her and her attitude.

Anyhow, I’ll spare you the story and just say it.

I could use some donations. There are 3 options on the left and one on the right. Use them liberally. You can also take out ads on BlogAds. 9 slots are available, per side. My rates are cheap. I also have adspace available via adtoll, adbrite and adsense.

Thanks.

Local News – ACORN to Sponsor Detroit Mayoral Candidates Forum Tonight

Acorn, much noted for their voter fraud, is sponsoring a Forum for the Detroit Mayoral Candidates.

As Detroit gets closer the Feb. 24 mayoral primary election, the candidates are getting another opportunity to put their ideas before voters.

The community group ACORN is sponsoring a forum on foreclosures at St. Paul AME Church on Hunt Street in Detroit tonight at 6.

All candidates are expected to be there — except Detroit businessman Dave Bing, who said he has a scheduling conflict.

via Detroit Mayoral Candidates Forum Tonight – Detroit Local News Story – WDIV Detroit.

Hmmmm… I just wonder, will ACORN allow the voter fraud in the Detroit Mayoral Election like they did in the election of  B. Hussein Obama?

Notice also, that WDIV never mentioned the voter fraud at all? Now, why I am not surprised. 🙄
