Ignorance Affects Britain! Brits Exits EU!

The United Kingdom separates from the European Union and the markets tank.

The ignorance of the right wing reigns in the United Kingdom. Today the Brits exit the European Union causing a ripple effect across the global markets.

Hate and nationalism has stuck a cord with the Brits. 

Former London mayor Boris Johnson claims victory.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump claims victory.

The conservatives are happy.

David Cameron, the current Prime Minister of the British Crown is resigning from officer in less than 90 days. He and President Barack Obama voiced concerns about the exit. They believe that the Brexit could ruin the world economy.

Racism and xenophobia were contributing factors to the Brits leaving the EU.

The 27 nations of the European Union will now have to worry about the impact on the global economy.

Britain's nationalist stance will affect the world. It may fuel more interest in Donald Trump's campaign.

U.S. May Have Killed Jihad John!

English spokesman for the Islamic State may have been killed in an American airstrike.

Another man who gave up the life to join the Islamic extremist group was killed an American missiles drop. The U.S. military hasn't put a confirmation out there but the junk food media has broke the news that the British man who was a spokesman and executioner for the Islamic State was killed in a drone strike.

When it comes to brutal videos being posted on social media, the extremist group turns to YouTube.

He was accused of beheading three Americans, two British men and two Japanese men.

James Foley, Stephen Sotloff, David Haines, Alan Henning, Peter Kassig, Haruna Yukawa and Kenji Goto were victims of tribunal. This man would warn Western leaders that the deaths of innocent Muslims will be spilled with the blood of Westerners. These men were beheaded when the ransom demands weren't met.

This man took pride in this. He would often boast that more killings could come and often asked for more American intervention.

The airstrike hit was in Syria. He left his home and was traveling on the road when the hit came. The hit was a "flawless" target kill. The U.S. will evaluate the area before they can pass confirmation of death.

Unmasked.

Mohammed Emwazi (born Muhammad Jassim Abdulkarim Olayan al-Dhafiri) was a Kuwaiti-British man who is thought to be the person seen in several videos produced by the Islamic extremist group ISIL showing the beheadings of a number of captives in 2014 and 2015. He was born in August 1988.

Mohammad Emwazi was outed by the intelligence agencies after they determined his departure from Britain to join the extremist group. Some of his friends and family described him as a angry young man. .

The family of James Foley came out with a statement saying that the death of this man doesn't change the fact that President Barack Obama failed their son.

Okay, that annoying conservative agitator and Pam Geller often criticize Obama for being weak on terrorism.

Under Obama's order, the CIA and U.S. military has killed al-Qaeda's Osama bin Laden, Adam Gahdan, Anwar al-Awlaki, Abu Anas al-Libi and Fazul Abdullah Mohammed.

They have disrupted the Islamic State's leadership role by hitting top chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

Besides Mohammed Emwazi, German rapper Deso Dogg (Denis Cuspert) was killed in a drone strike a few weeks ago.

World News Today send our condolences to those innocent victims killed in these senseless tragedies.

Our Neighbor To The North Moves To The Left!

Justin Trudeau will be sworn as the new Prime Minister of Canada.

Canada has a new leader. After a decade of conservative rule, Prime Minister Stephen Harper will be heading for the door soon. Ottawa's got a new prime minister. He's the son of a legendary leader.

Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party came to town.

A young fresh face willing to turn Canada back around. The politico is the "Barack Obama" of the north. His wife is Canadian news agitator Sophie Gregoire. They have three children.

Trudeau, 43, the photogenic son of former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, pledged to run a C$10 billion annual budget deficit for three years to invest in infrastructure and help stimulate Canada's anemic economic growth.

This rattled financial markets in the runnup to the vote and the Canadian dollar weakened on news of his victory.

Trudeau has said he will repair Canada's cool relations with the Obama administration, withdraw Canada from the combat mission against Islamic State militants in favor of humanitarian aid and training, and tackle climate change.

Trudeau vaulted from third place to lead the polls in the final days of the campaign, overcoming Conservative attacks that he is too inexperienced to govern to return to the Prime Minister's residence in Ottawa where he grew up as a child.

"When the time for change strikes, it's lethal," former Conservative Prime Minister Brian Mulroney said in a television interview. "I ran and was successful because I wasn't Pierre Trudeau. Justin is successful because he isn't Stephen Harper."

The Conservatives were projected to become the official opposition in Parliament, with the left-leaning New Democratic Party in third.

American conservatives lose an ally. The Conservative Party and its chief Prime Minister Stephen Harper were crushed in the National Party Elections.

Liberal supporters at the party's campaign headquarters broke into cheers and whistles when television projected that Trudeau would be the next prime minister.

Top Trudeau advisor Gerald Butts tweeted "Amazing work #TeamTrudeau. Breathtaking really."

At the Conservative election headquarters in Calgary, where Harper is due to speak later, supporters sat quietly, staring at giant TV screens as the results poured in.

The Conservatives weren't the only party that appeared headed for a crushing defeat. The third place left-leaning New Democratic Party's fall was highlighted in Quebec, where it had the majority of its seats.

Radio Canada projected it would end up with just seven seats, down from 54 in the last Parliament.

The Liberals' win marks a swing toward a more multilateral approach in global politics by the Canadian government, which has distanced itself from the United Nations in recent years.

The former teacher took charge of the party just two years ago and guided it out of the political wilderness with a pledge of economic stimulus and stirring appeals for a return to social liberalism.

The United States and Canada are strong allies.

Born to a sitting prime minister who came to power in 1968 on a wave of popular support dubbed "Trudeaumania," Trudeau will become the second-youngest prime minister in Canadian history and brings an appeal more common in movie stars than statesmen.

Pierre once jumped from a trampoline into the crowd. With boyish good looks, Justin thrusts himself into throngs and puts his hand to his heart when listening to someone.

Say hi to the world's most beautiful couple. Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie Gregoire.

Selfie requests are so common he happily takes the camera and snaps the photo himself, often cheek to cheek. He is the married father of three young children.

Criticized for being more style than substance, Trudeau has used attacks on his good looks and privileged upbringing to win over voters, who recalled his father's rock-star presence and an era when Canada had some sizzle on the world stage.

Pierre Trudeau, who died in 2000, was in power for 15 years - with a brief interruption - and remains one of the few Canadian leaders to be known abroad.

Single when he took power, the elder Trudeau dated movie stars and models before marrying. He had three boys while prime minister, the eldest of whom now succeeds him in the nation's top office.

Financial market players had praised the Conservative government for its steady hand in economic management, which had spared Canada the worst of the global financial malaise. Trudeau has also promised to raise taxes on high-income Canadians and reduce them for the middle class.

Political pundits have already began to speculate on the makeup of a Trudeau government while pondering what caused the downfall of Harper, 56, who has been criticized for his aloof personality but won credit for economic management in a decade of global fiscal uncertainty.

Righties Are Still Stuck In The 20th Century!

The right digs out the past in their attacks of President Barack Obama

Whenever the agitators in the media bring up past presidents, past events of the previous century and incorrect history, you just shake your head, sigh at them, and walk past them. Ignoring whatever else they've got to say and pay them no mind.

For you see, conservatives and two clowns running have now pulled out their history books to look up a foreign leader of the 20th Century to attack our president.

To make comparisons to someone of the past is quite often. The right and the left often use Adolf Hitler or some leader who the United States declared an enemy to tag a politician who they disagree with.

Peace is weak says the conservative agitators. The president is Neville Chamberlain.

Who is Neville Chamberlain?

He was a British conservative politician who served as prime minister of Great Britain for 1937-1940

Before the World War II, Chamberlain met Hitler in Munich to discuss avoiding a German invasion of the Czech region.

Chamberlain is best known for his appeasement foreign policy, and in particular for his signing of the Munich Agreement in 1938, conceding the German-speaking Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia to Germany. However, when Adolf Hitler continued his aggression by invading Poland, Britain declared war on Germany on 3 September 1939, and Chamberlain led Britain through the first eight months of World War II.

Now the conservative agitators are comparing President Barack Obama to Chamberlain for advocating the Six Power talks with Iran. The conservatives believe that the president conceded to Iranian leaders over the nuclear talks.

The United Nations, the six power nations and the International Atomic Energy Agency all agree to this. The only thing that is slowing down progress is the inept Republican controlled Congress and Israel.

The conservative outrage is off the wall.

Diplomacy is appeasement to the conservatives. They rather see war and more stricter sanctions against Iran.

That annoying conservative agitator Sean Hannity, the clowns running Scott Walker, Donald Trump and Lindsey Graham have openly declared they intentions of going to war with Iran.

See these idiots don't understand that the deal is strict. This is the best solution to stop Iran from making an alleged nuclear bomb. They unzip their pants and allow Israel prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu plow his big dick in their asses.

The president announced that there's a social media effort to pressure Congress to support the deal.

The president is getting tired of Netanyahu screaming and bitching. We the taxpayer provide weapons and defense for Israel. Israel has nuclear weapons.

Who's gonna tell Iran, North Korea and other nations to not have nuclear weapons?

The United States, Israel, United Kingdom, France, Pakistan, India, Russia, and China have them.

If Israel launches a strike on Iran, then expect the U.S. to be dragged into another war.

The president doesn't want to spend anymore time in the Middle East. It already cost thousands of lives here and abroad. It's time to give peace a chance.

Republicans are scared to talk to foreign leaders. They can't stomach peace with a nation we've been feuding with for nearly 40 years. It's time to move forward.

Peace Deal!

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Iran's foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif in Switzerland. The U,S, and global powers are working out a deal with Iran to ease sanctions. Conservatives are pissed over this.

The six world powers may have a miracle in the wings. Let's not go crazy, though. The United States and five global countries have worked out a deal to keep the Islamic Republic of Iran from developing nuclear weapons.

I am expected that the junk food media agitators, the Republican Party, some spineless Democrats and Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu will try their best to undermine this.

The war hawk Israeli leader is a thorn in the peace process. Many world leaders hate Netanyahu. Over here in the United States, many lawmakers and media agitators unzip their pants and let him plow in their asses.

The path to peace relies on negotiations. Iran is willing to settle their feud with the United States.

A bold move for the president, Many here were skeptical of this dela.

President Barack Obama spoke Thursday at the Rose Garden telling the junk food media about the legacies of past presidents and the deal that was proposed.

Under this deal, Iran will scrap the nuclear program and keep the low grade for safe use. The world powers will eventually lift economic sanctions and travel bans in exchange. Iran will allow UN inspectors check their facilities and will be offered alternatives to energy consumption.

I believe its a great idea. Some don't. That's why the president will spent time trying to convince the American people the deal.

As always I focus on that guy. Yeah, I hate mentioning him. But today I will.

Sean Hannity is by far the country's most annoying conservative agitator. He is one of the reasons why Barack Obama won his election, twice. This guy is a certified name dropping, name calling, fear mongering, ass kissing Republican who makes a living off of bitching about everything that he believes is wrong in America.

He has a right to be who he is. But seriously, the act is getting old and people are tuning him out.

He's so bad at what does, he doesn't realize that the cannon is ready to be fired. The chief, Roger Ailes sees that his show is pathetic. That's why he bumped him to the 10pm slot. The show is nothing but a waste of space in a timeslot normally reserved for second stringers.

I mean Rush Limbaugh is an old fart. His legacy will be marred by controversy. He's proud of that. He will die a happy man knowing he's pissed off people. Unlike Hannity, Limbaugh is tolerated.

The most annoying conservative agitator embraces the Israeli prime minster. The chickenshit Benjamin Netanyahu and Republicans do not like the deal proposed by President Barack Obama and the five world powers.

Hannity is not. Hannity is the worst. He can't even get it through his head that most of the things being done would have been done by George W. Bush. Don't you think Bush would be eager to talk to Iran? I mean obviously, most presidents would like to establish dialogue with countries (even if they're not supportive of the U.S.).

What's worse, the most annoying conservative agitator went into a tirade with White extremist Pat Buchanan a few days ago.

Usually these two often agree on issues. But today, Buchanan had to stray away from the usual talking points.

Hannity and most of the conservative agitators believe a deal with Iran is like Neville Chamberlain giving Adolf Hitler his way.

That's probably the worst analogy ever to exist. We live in the United States  and they have the right to criticize. No one is denying them the right to push out idiotic opinions,

Did The West Call Out The Islamic State Spokesman?

Do they even know who this guy is? 

The U.S. and Brits outed the man who posed in the Islamic State videos. Last time, I thought they've outed a British rapper as the spokesperson Now it's a computer programmer. Seriously, who is the guy?

I highly doubt their credibility on this one.

Allegedly the man who often is a fixture to public assassination videos is a Kuwaiti-born Briton who grew up in West London. Coming from a well-off family and got a degree in the computers.

I am guessing he probably produced those videos for recruitment.

Anyway, Jihad John is reportedly known as Mohammed Emwazi. Not confirmed nor denied, the junk food media outed the guy who puts knife to the head of Westerners.

The Republicans and their allies on the racist right are spooked by "radical Islam". They are pissed that the president isn't calling it "radical".

In Brooklyn, three men were charged with aiding material support for Islamic State.

This stuff doesn't scare me.

Two reasons.

The junk food media is looking for ratings. What's better than scaring up folks with videos of masked men with firearms trying to look like American soldiers?

The government told us numerous times to be vigilant and report suspicious activity. Obviously people can't understand that the best tool to defeat them is ignore them. The media is giving them attention by promoting videos and the pictures of hostages being beheaded or burned alive.

Give me a reason to fear the terrorist.

The Western take on the Islamic State.

French Authorities Seek The Gunmen Who Kill 12!

The European Union and the United States today condemns an attack today at a satirical French newspaper that killed 12 people.

This newspaper known as the Charlie Hebdo was in the news some years ago after some its writers and illustrators made nasty references towards the Prophet Mohammad.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to those lost in this horrific tragedy.

This was bubbling up for a while.

Before the attack happened, the newspaper made another offensive reference towards the Prophet and the Islamic State.

Meilleurs vœux, au fait. pic.twitter.com/a2JOhqJZJM
— Charlie Hebdo (@Charlie_Hebdo_) January 7, 2015

French President Francois Hollande has labelled the shooting a terrorist attack, and confirmed that at least 11 people were killed and another four were in critical condition. Among the dead are two police officers.

“This is a terrorist attack, there is no doubt about it,” Hollande told reporters.

French news organizations are saying that four of France’s most well known cartoonists — Charb, Cabu, Wolinski, and Tignous — are among the dead.

Video shows two gunmen shooting from a distance what is reportedly a Paris policeman, who is then seen struggling on a sidewalk. The two gunmen run over to him, and one casually puts a bullet in the policeman’s head, killing him.

In the video, the gunmen can be heard shouting “Allahu akbar” between bursts of gunfire. The gunmen also shouted “we have avenged the prophet,” according to police.

Hollande arrived at the scene of the shooting after rushing there and calling an emergency cabinet meeting, the presidency said.

The government raised its alert level to the highest possible in the greater Paris region.

A source close to the investigation said two men “armed with a Kalashnikov and a rocket-launcher” stormed the building in central Paris and “fire was exchanged with security forces.”

The source said a gunman had hijacked a car and knocked over a pedestrian while attempting to speed away.

The New York Times reports that the car was later found abandoned “in the 20th Arrondissement of Paris, a neighborhood with a large immigrant population.”

The publication’s cartoonist Renaud Luzier earlier told AFP there were “casualties” after the incident.

The satirical newspaper gained notoriety in February 2006 when it reprinted cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed that had originally appeared in Danish daily Jyllands-Posten, causing fury across the Muslim world.

Its offices were fire-bombed in November 2011 when it published a cartoon of Mohammed and under the title “Charia Hebdo”.

Despite being taken to court under anti-racism laws, the weekly continued to publish controversial cartoons of the Muslim prophet.

In September 2012 Charlie Hebdo published cartoons of a naked Mohammed as violent protests were taking place in several countries over a low-budget film, titled “Innocence of Muslims”, which was made in the United States and insulted the prophet.

French schools, consulates and cultural centres in 20 Muslim countries were briefly closed along with embassies for fear of retaliatory attacks at the time.

Editor Stephane Charbonnier has received death threats and lives under police protection.

The newspaper’s editor in chief, Gérard Biard, is in London. He was quoted on Twitter saying that the threats had actually lessened lately.

France’s interior minister said police are searching for three suspects involved in the attacks.

W.H. Official: Netanyahu Full Of Chickensh*t!

Who can you trust?

Yeah, Benjamin Netanyahu is a fucking chickenshit. What's you fucks going do about it?

Cause of him, thousands of innocent men, women and children in the Gaza Strip were killed!

This year alone, the junk food media was promoting this notion that Hamas was launching rocket attacks in Israel and millions of civilians were killed. Unfortunately, the numbers were skewed. The nuclear powered, heavily armed Israel has killed over 2,500 civilians in this conflict.

Netanyahu had said some negative things about Secretary of State John Kerry, President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden behind the closed doors.

The Republicans and the racist right applaud him for the ruthless massacre of innocent civilians.

Republicans look at Israel as the 51st State. As Israel continues to damage the peace process with the continuation of settlements on the West Bank and bans of imports to the Gaza Strip, those worldwide condemn the actions of Netanyahu.

They continue to build those settlements despite the United States cries to cease.

The American conservative agitators pledge more allegiance to a foreign leader than President Barack Obama. American conservatives have no respect for their own country let alone Israel. They see greed for energy resources, hatred towards Muslims and turn a blind eye whenever Israel attacks Hamas.

The only countries that support Netanyahu's unprecedented actions towards Palestinian is the United States and the United Kingdom.

Many here in the United States are getting tired of hearing about Israel needing to protect itself.

Far right leaders such as Vladimir Putin, and Netanyahu have plotted for decades to secretly eradicate minority states. They are hatemongers and chickenshits. They want to flex their tiny muscle at the expense of millions of people.

The West Bank and the Gaza Strip are dispute territories. The Palesteinan people ask for is their own right as a country. Israel doesn't see that as appropriate.

That's probably why we see this event unfold in the world. All over Holy Land.

The Guardian reports that U.S. relations with Israel have plunged to new depths of bitterness and hostility as senior officials in the Obama administration decried Benjamin Netanyahu as a “chickenshit prime minister”, “coward” and a man more interested in his own political survival than peace.

The furious assessment delivered in anonymous but no-holds barred comments in an interview with the American journalist Jeffrey Goldberg in the Atlantic underline a state of anger with Netanyahu that is characterized as “red hot”.

The remarks are particularly telling in having been made to Goldberg, a Washington insider who has interviewed both Obama and Netanyahu, and who warned U.S.-Israeli relations were in a “full-blown crisis” that could only get worse after the midterm elections.

Speaking to the Israeli parliament – the Knesset – a few hours after the comments were revealed, Netanyahu angrily insisted he was “under attack simply for defending Israel”, adding that he “cherished” Israel’s relationship with the U.S.

“When there are pressures on Israel to concede its security, the easiest thing to do is to concede,” he said. “You get a round of applause, ceremonies on grassy knolls, and then come the missiles and the tunnels.”

The Obama officials’ comments underline the dismal state of relations between the Obama administration and Netanyahu after a series of damaging announcements by Israel – including again this week – regarding its determination to push ahead with settlement building in occupied East Jerusalem and the West Bank.

The temperature of relations plunged again last week when Israel’s defence minister, Moshe Yaalon, was pointedly snubbed by senior administration officials during a visit last week to Washington, which itself followed a public warning from the White House that Israel risked alienating its “closest allies”.

Royal Too!

Royal couple goes for the second.

The United Kingdom's most popular couple is going for a second bundle.

Prince William and Princess Kate are going for the second round. According to the junk food media, the couple announced that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting her second child and being treated for severe morning sickness, royal officials said Monday.

The couple's Clarence House office said they and their families were "delighted" with the baby news.

The former Kate Middleton was being treated at Kensington Palace for severe morning sickness, Clarence House said.

She was hospitalized for the same condition, hyperemesis gravidarum, during her first pregnancy with Prince George, who was born in July 2013.

The illness means the 32-year-old duchess may need extra hydration, medication and nutrients.

British Prime Minister David Cameron said he was "delighted by the happy news that they're expecting another baby."

The new baby will become fourth in line to the throne, pushing Prince Harry to fifth. Toddler Prince George is third and likely to become Britain's monarch one day.

The Associated Press also adds that Britain had changed its laws before George's birth so that the couple's first born would be in line for the throne regardless of its sex. Before the change, a girl would have lost her place in line if a boy was born later.

William and Kate have often expressed an interest in having a larger family.

Britain's Press Association reported that Kate's pregnancy hasn't passed the 12-week stage, which is when she became ill in her first pregnancy.

Royal officials said it wasn't clear if the duchess will be able to carry out planned official engagements, including a trip to Malta on Sept. 20 and 21 that would mark her first overseas solo trip.

Decisions on events would be made on a "case-by-case" basis, officials said.

Heads Roll And Partisans Crow!

American journalist Steven Sotloff (center) was beheaded by an extremist group.

The agitators of the American junk food media are going to coverage of the second beheading of an American journalist. The agitators have went to their respectable corners to point fingers at not only the man who beheaded Steven Sotloff but President Barack Obama for not doing enough to combat the Islamic State, an extremist group with ties to Iraq and Syria.

Of course, I want you to understand that we here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Steven Sotloff. First and foremost, the American journalists who cover the impacts of war and crisis knew the risks. It's a dangerous job to cover war from the front lines.

The American media doesn't show everything that happens in a war, Sotloff and James Foley done the best they can to inform the public of things outside the beltway and outside the "good v. evil" narrative.

Steven Sotloff and James Foley gave their lives to cover the news. They also knew the risk of being captured by the extremists.

I don't understand why Americans are so disgusted with this. There's more violence towards our own in the United States than overseas. The American military have caused so many causalities towards innocent men, women and children overseas, so I don't understand for one American, thousands died.

The agitators can't stop bitching. With the president and Congress on vacation, the world continues to move.

On GOP Sundays, Senators Diane Feinstein (D-CA), John McCain (R-AZ), Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Representatives Mike Rogers (R-MI) and the arm chair quarterbacks have denounced ISIS and demand Obama to take action.

The United States and United Kingdom does not negotiate with terrorist groups.

Sotloff was kidnapped in March 2013. The video was distributed through S.I.T.E. on August 28.

British Rapper Outed As The Guy Who Assassinated James Foley!

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of James Foley.

Last week a video surfaced on the social networks showing an American journalist getting beheaded. The American journalist was kidnapped in 2012 and was held captive until his tragic death.

The junk food media outed the person who was the executioner. In the video, the executioner who spoke in English demanded the U.S. and its allies end their campaign against Muslims. The executioner is associated with the Islamic State Movement (ISIS), a Sunni extremist group. 

James Wright Foley was an American freelance journalist and photojournalist covering the Syrian Civil War for Agence France-Presse and GlobalPost when he was abducted on November 22, 2012 in northwestern Syria. Foley is being widely reported as being confirmed to be the first American citizen to have been executed in the name of the self-proclaimed Islamic State (IS), an al-Qaida spinoff, also referred to as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, ISIS or ISIL

The executioner who beheaded the journalist is a former rapper.

Foley's whereabouts were unknown to most until August 19, 2014, when IS uploaded to YouTube a video entitled ″A Message to America″. 

Though quickly deleted, it continued to circulate widely on other sites and was wildly disseminated on social media. The video appears to have been filmed in several separate takes. The video does not show the actual moment of Foley’s decapitation, this marks it out from other, less sophisticated predecessors beheading videos and made it more distributive.

After his corpse is shown, the masked man reveals that IS is holding another American journalist, Time magazine contributor Steven Joel Sotloff, and said that he would be killed if U.S. President Obama did not halt air strikes against IS. 

The video was shot at an unknown desert location, and media sources gave the name Jihadi John to the masked man who carried out the killing and made the threats.

Rapper L. Jinny lived up to his name as a gangsta. Abdel Majed Abdel Bary is accused by the FBI for being the executioner of American journalist James Foley.

The United States and United Kingdom want this man. Abdel Majed Abdel Bary is a 24 year old British man who once recorded in the studio. He gave that up to join the fight in Syria and Iraq.

As the conservative agitators bum rush to GOP Sundays, they will be happy to know that at least the killer isn't a White guy. 

It's unfortunate that I can't give you the graphic beheading video. Instead I want you to see the video of this heartless asshole rapping. 

UN: Israel Is Committing War Crimes!

Crimes against humanity.

The Associated Press reports that the U.N.'s top human rights official demanded Wednesday that all sides in the two-week war in the Gaza Strip refrain from indiscriminate attacks on civilians, warning that violations may amount to war crimes.

The warning by U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay came at a special meeting of the U.N.'s top human rights body, which voted 29-1 to authorize an international commission of inquiry to investigate all alleged abuses since mid-June in the Gaza Strip.

Only the United States voted against the resolution championed by Arab nations. Another 17 of the Human Rights Council's 47 member-states abstained.

Israel said that the council's decision to investigate Israel's role in the conflict sent a message to extremist groups around the world that using human shields — which it accuses Hamas of doing — was an "effective strategy."

"The Human Rights Council must start to investigate Hamas' decision to turn hospitals into command bases and schools into weapons warehouses and to place rocket batteries near playgrounds, private homes and mosques," said a statement from the Israeli prime minister's office.

The U.N. secretary-general said he was "alarmed" to hear that rockets were placed in a U.N.-run school in Gaza and that "subsequently these have gone missing."

A statement by the spokesman for Ban Ki-moon expressed the U.N. chief's "outrage" at the incident and demanded that militant groups stop such actions and should be held accountable for endangering civilians.

No details on the number or kind of rockets were given. The location of the school was not given.

Of the more than 600 Palestinian deaths in the Gaza Strip reviewed by the United Nations, three-quarters were civilians, Pillay said. At least 147 were children and 74 women, she said.

According to the latest count more than 680 Palestinians and 31 Israelis — two of them civilians — have been killed during the conflict.

There's nothing good about this.

Pillay cited an Israeli drone missile strike in Gaza City that killed three children and wounded two others while they were playing on the roof of their home. She also made reference to an Israeli strike and naval shelling that struck seven children playing on Gaza beach, killing four from the same family.

"These are just a few examples where there seems to be a strong possibility that international humanitarian law has been violated, in a manner that could amount to war crimes," Pillay told the rights council's special session.

Israel launched its operation in Gaza on July 8 in response to heavy rocket fire out of Hamas-controlled Gaza. The fighting escalated last week with an Israeli ground offensive.

Pillay also warned that Hamas and others were violating international law.

"Israeli children, and their parents and other civilians, also have a right to live without the constant fear that a rocket fired from Gaza may land on their houses or their schools, killing or injuring them," Pillay said.

"The principles of distinction and precaution are clearly not being observed during such indiscriminate attacks on civilian areas by Hamas and other armed Palestinian groups," she added.

Pillay said not abiding by those principles could amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity.

If I Criticize Israel, Then I'm What?

If criticizing the killing innocent civilians by Israel anti-Semitic, then what is an unjustifiable killing?

Israel is mounting another assault on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Despite their efforts, the causalities of the innocent are growing and the Israelis are trying to place the blame solely on Hamas. Many internationally are getting tired of the excuses. They want to lay the hammer on Israel but one thing keeps them from doing it.

U.S., the United States of America.

Why?

My personal thoughts on this: The Israelis attacks on the Gaza Strip are WAR CRIMES.

They killed many innocent people at a United Nation's sanctioned public school. The Israeli military claims that it wasn't the fault of them, but Hamas launching a rocket that richocetted into the building.

BULLSHIT!

There's a riot in the West Bank and the Israeli forces ended up shooting three protesters. The protest are in regards to the heartless killings of schoolchildren seeking shelter.

For the fact that 500 Palestinians died in this one sided war against a political faction that they deem as a terrorist group is bullshit. Hamas was elected by the people of the Gaza Strip.

The Hamas governance believes that Israel is an oppressor and must be defeated. Hamas is conservative Sunni Islamic political organization.

The United States gives military aid to Israel. The Israeli government has a missile shield, nuclear weapons, a political campaign to paint themselves as the "victims" and a junk food media willing to aid their propaganda.

The Likud Party is the Tea Party of Israel. They've been in power for decades. They elected right wing leaders who run to the American junk food media with this notion that Israel is under attack and we must aid the country no matter what.

It seems like in a fight against an enemy, both sides would have the ammunition to destroy one another, then this would be a fair fight.

But like GOP Sundays, there's 3:1 ratio for Israelis. The junk food media is pro-Israel.

Our president, the Secretary of State John Kerry, the Republican Party, the Democratic Party and the American Jewish community believe that Israel "has the right" to defend their land. They have the "right to exist" and its up to Hamas to end the attacks.

But the problem with this is that Hamas is willing to end the conflict. They want to end it. But the reasons why they can't is because Israel continues to built settlements despite the United States and its allies warning the country not to. The Israeli government continue to block aid packages and medicine to the Gaza Strip and West Bank. They continue to tell this lie that Hamas hides in areas where women and children reside.

Yeah, right.

I am getting tired of this excuse. Hamas fighters would rather fight the Israelis in the streets instead of behind families.

Okay, here's where I believe they're wrong.

The Likud government is a far right government. They have such utter hatred of Blacks, Arabs and those who aren't like them. They strongly emphasize a national security policy based on a strong military force when threatened with continued enmity against Israel. It has shown reluctance to negotiate with its neighbors whom it believes continue to seek the destruction of the Jewish state. Its suspicion of Arab intentions, however, has not prevented the party from it from reaching agreements with the Arabs, such as the 1979 peace treaty with Egypt. Likud will never trust a mutually accepted agreements with the Arab world.

They believe in their minds, being the strongest is beneficial and weakness is not an option. Diplomacy with leaders who are conservative help their cause. Those they deem not of their level are often mocked and ignored.

See our president, Barack Obama has a somewhat testy relationship with right wing leaders.

Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, Vladimir Putin of the Russian Federation, Stephen Harper of Canada, Angela Murkel of Germany, David Cameron of the United Kingdom,  Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo of Equatorial Guinea are politically right wing leaders.

These American conservative agitators support these leaders vehemently cause of their policies.

Over the years the rejection of peace talks often associates to the stubbornness of Israeli right-wing parties.

Far too long, I've been ignoring the conflict in the Middle East. I strongly believe that the United States shouldn't be involved as the world's police man. The U.S. should only aid a country in the time of a crisis (i.e. food and medical outbreak).

We shouldn't supply any country with weapons of mass destruction. What gives us the right to have nuclear weapons when countries like Iran, Syria and North Korea are barred from using them?

The UN threatened to sanction Israel for war crimes.

The United States have been participant in blocking any vote. The U.S. for the time being still believes that Hamas started the fight and Israel must take steps to end it.

The urging of ceasefire by Secretary of State John Kerry and Secretary General Ban Ki Moon is being ignored by both parties.

My thoughts on this situation is pretty simple.

Give Palestine the right to become a nation. The United States need to cut off the weapons to Israel.

Have each leader sit at the table in Geneva and offer a comprehensive truce.

If that fails, then charge Israeli leaders and military officers for war crimes at the Hague.

I'm against the attack of the Gaza Strip. There's nothing anti-Semitic about bombing civilian targets.

If Hamas had the power that Israel has, then I would have been more supportive. But if this lump sided fight was fair, then you could have convince me.

So as I allow my freedom of speech roll down these pages, I patiently wait for the first anonymous comment to come onto the pages of Journal de la Reyna.

What's your thoughts on the situation over in the Middle East?  

Why They Shot The Plane Down? [NSFW]

International leaders condemn this senseless tragedy.

BE WARNED, THIS CONTAINS DISTURBING IMAGES. TAKE DISCRETION WHEN READING THIS ARTICLE. THE ARTICLE HAS INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS, THE HUFFINGTON POST AND REUTERS. 

The international media and world leaders come in unity condemning this horrible attack against innocent travelers.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to those who were lost in this senseless tragedy.

This give credence to the troubled Malaysian Airlines. The airline company has gotten a lot of flack earlier this year when Flight 370 "disappeared" over the Indian Ocean. Many are still hoping that they wreckage can be finally found, but alas, it's not!

The next thing to happen for Malaysian Airlines was not an act of the crew or pilots, but a bunch of extremists who happen to be egging on a potential civil war in Ukraine. The Russian Federation and the United States are at odds with each other over the breakaway states that decided to become independent and loyal to Moscow.

Separatists shot down a MH17 in Ukraine shot down the passenger plane carrying 295 people aboard. This plane crashed in eastern Ukraine on Thursday was shot down, U.S. officials told multiple news outlets. No signs of survivors have been reported.

Body parts were scattered for miles around the crash site, near towns held by Russian-backed separatists. An emergency services rescue worker said that at least 100 bodies had been found at the scene.

Ukrainian officials blamed separatists for the attack on the plane, a Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 that was traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur. Anton Gerashenko, an adviser to Ukraine's Interior Minister, wrote on Facebook that the plane was hit by a missile fired from a Buk launcher over the country's east. U.S. officials told NBC News that the plane was shot down by a surface-to-air missile, and that they "were trying to determine who fired the missile." Russian separatists have shot down several Ukrainian military planes in recent months.

The Daily Beast reports that the plane's black box had been sent to Moscow for investigation, citing a Russian radio station.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Ukraine bore responsibility for the crash, saying in televised comments, "This tragedy would not have happened, if there had been peace on that land, or in any case if military operations in southeastern Ukraine had not been renewed."

Airlines scrambled to divert their flights away from Ukrainian airspace following the crash.

President Obama spoke briefly about the incident, calling it a "terrible tragedy." Vice President Biden also commented, saying the crash was "not an accident."

Ukraine's east has seen heavy fighting since the country's army launched an operation to recapture eastern cities from rebel fighters.

The Associated Press added that A Russian news report said pro-Russia rebels intend to call a three-day cease-fire to allow for an investigation into the crash and recovery efforts.

The Boeing 777-200ER, traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, appeared to have broken up before impact and the burning wreckage — which included body parts and the belongings of passengers — was scattered over a wide area.

Graphic photos of the carnage.

The cockpit and one of the turbines lay at a distance of one 1 kilometer (more than a half-mile) from one another. Residents said the tail had landed around 10 kilometers (six miles) further away. Pieces of charred bodies and bones were spread around the field. Rescue workers planted sticks with white flags in spots where they found body parts.

Some journalists attempting to reach the crash site were detained briefly by rebel militiamen, who were nervous and aggressive.

There was no indication there were any survivors. Malaysia's prime minister said the plane didn't make any distress call before it went down, and that the flight route was declared safe by the International Civil Aviation Organization.

Prime Minister Najib Razak told reporters that Malaysia was unable to verify "the cause of this tragedy but we must, and we will, find out precisely what happened to this flight."

Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko called the downing an act of terrorism and called for an international investigation into the crash. He insisted that his forces did not shoot down the plane.

At least 154 people on the flight were Dutch citizens, said Huib Gorter, Malaysian Airlines senior vice president in Europe. There were also 27 Australians on board, 23 Malaysians, including all 15 crew, and 11 Indonesians.

Other nationalities so far identified were six passengers from the United Kingdom, four from Germany, four Belgians, three from the Philippines and one Canadian. There are still 47 dead whose nationalities haven't yet been confirmed, he added.

Ukraine's security services produced what they said were two intercepted telephone conversations that they said showed rebels were responsible. In the first call, the security services said, rebel commander Igor Bezler tells a Russian military intelligence officer that rebel forces shot down a plane.

In the second, two rebel fighters — one of them at the scene of the crash — say the rocket attack was carried out by a unit of insurgents about 25 kilometers (15 miles) north of the crash site.

Bodies were scattered across the Ukrainian farmland.

Neither recording could be independently verified.

Earlier in the week, the rebels had claimed responsibility for shooting down two Ukrainian military planes.

President Barack Obama called the crash a "terrible tragedy" and talked about it on the phone with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Later, Putin said Ukraine bears responsibility for the crash. But he didn't address the question of who might have shot down the plane and didn't accuse Ukraine of doing so.

"This tragedy would not have happened if there were peace on this land, if the military actions had not been renewed in southeast Ukraine," Putin said, according to a Kremlin statement issued early Friday. And, certainly, the state over whose territory this occurred bears responsibility for this awful tragedy."

Britain has asked for an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council on Ukraine.

The RIA-Novosti agency on Thursday quoted rebel leader Alexander Borodai as saying discussions were underway with Ukrainian authorities on calling a short truce for humanitarian reasons. He said international organizations would be allowed into the conflict-plagued region.

Aviation authorities in several countries, including the FAA in the United States, had issued warnings not to fly over parts of Ukraine prior to Thursday's crash, but many airliners had continued to use the route because "it is a shorter route, which means less fuel and therefore less money," said aviation expert Norman Shanks.

Within hours of Thursday's crash, several airlines, including Lufthansa, Delta and KLM, released statements saying they were avoiding parts of Ukrainian airspace.

Malaysia Airlines said Ukrainian aviation authorities told the company they had lost contact with Flight MH17 at 1415 GMT (10 a.m. EDT) about 30 kilometers (20 miles) from Tamak waypoint, which is 50 kilometers (30 miles) from the Russia-Ukraine border.

It said the plane was carrying 280 passengers and 15 crew members. It had left Amsterdam at 12:15 p.m. and was due to arrive at Kuala Lumpur International Airport at 6:10 a.m. Friday.

Anton Gerashenko, an adviser to Ukraine's interior minister, said on his Facebook page the plane was flying at an altitude of 10,000 meters (33,000 feet) when it was hit by a missile from a Buk launcher, which can fire up to an altitude of 22,000 meters (72,000 feet). He said only that his information was based on "intelligence."

Igor Sutyagin, a research fellow in Russian studies at the Royal United Services Institute, said both Ukrainian and Russian forces have SA-17 missile systems — also known as Buk ground-to-air launcher systems.

Rebels had bragged recently about having acquired Buk systems.

He said Russia had supplied separatist rebels with military hardware, but he had seen no evidence "of the transfer of that type of system from Russia." The weapons that the rebels are known to have do not have the capacity to reach beyond 4,500 meters. (14,750 feet)

A launcher similar to the Buk missile system was seen by Associated Press journalists earlier Thursday near the eastern Ukrainian town of Snizhne, which is held by the rebels.

Petro Poshosheriko, president of Ukraine and President Barack Obama demand the facts.

The Malaysia Airlines plane was delivered to the company on July 30, 1997, according to Flightglobal's Ascend Online Fleets. It has more than 43,000 hours of flight time and 6,950 takeoffs and landings.

Poroshenko said his country's armed forces didn't shoot at any airborne targets.

"We do not exclude that this plane was shot down, and we stress that the Armed Forces of Ukraine did not take action against any airborne targets," he said. "We are sure that those who are guilty in this tragedy will be held responsible."

The Kremlin said Putin "informed the U.S. president of the report from air traffic controllers that the Malaysian plane had crashed on Ukrainian territory" without giving further details about their call. The White House confirmed the call.

Separatist leader Andrei Purgin told The Associated Press that he was certain that Ukrainian troops had shot the plane down, but gave no explanation or proof for his statement.

Purgin said he did not know whether rebel forces owned Buk missile launchers, but said even if they did, they had no fighters capable of operating it.

Around the time the plane crashed, Russian media quoted witnesses as saying they saw a plane being hit by what they thought was a rocket.

It was the second time that a Malaysia Airlines plane was lost in less than six months. Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared in March while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. It has not been found, but the search has been concentrated in the Indian Ocean far west of Australia.

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte, who had been attending a European Union summit in Brussels, headed back to the Netherlands to deal with the crash.

In Kuala Lumpur, several relatives of those onboard the Malaysian airliner came to the international airport.

A distraught Akmar Mohamad Noor, 67, said her older sister was coming to visit the family in Kuala Lumpur for the first time in five years.

"She called me just before she boarded the plane and said 'see you soon,'" Akmar said.
There have been several disputes over planes being shot down over eastern Ukraine in recent days.

On Wednesday evening, a Ukrainian fighter jet was shot down by an air-to-air missile from a Russian plane, Ukrainian authorities said Thursday, adding to what Kiev says is mounting evidence that Moscow is directly supporting the separatist insurgents. Ukraine Security Council spokesman Andrei Lysenko said the pilot of the Sukhoi-25 jet hit by the air-to-air missile was forced to bail after his jet was shot down.

Ukraine rebels with pro-Russian ties may have shot Malaysian Airlines Flight 17

Russia's U.N. Ambassador Vitaly Churkin told reporters at U.N. headquarters in New York on Thursday that Russia did not shoot down the Ukrainian fighter jet on Wednesday. "We didn't do it," Churkin said.

Pro-Russia rebels, meanwhile, claimed responsibility for strikes Wednesday on two Ukrainian Sukhoi-25 jets.

The Ukrainian Defense Ministry said the second jet was hit by a portable surface-to-air missile, but added the pilot was unscathed and managed to land his plane safely.

Moscow denies Western charges that is supporting the separatists or sowing unrest in its neighbor.

Earlier this week, Ukraine said a military transport plane was shot down Monday over eastern Ukraine by a missile fired from Russian territory.

Flights that were airborne when the Malaysia Airlines jet crashed have been re-routed, transportation officials said.

Israelis Think Bombing Innocent Victims Is Entertainment!

Israelis watch the bombing of the Gaza Strip. They cheer the killings of innocent people.

Again, I detest what's going on over in the Middle East. I am surprised that no Israeli citizens died in the conflict. But so far nearly 200 Palestinian residents died because of these airstrikes upon the Gaza Strip.

While watching innocent people die in these horrific bomb strikes, Benjamin Netanyahu and the right wing agitators of the American media are cheering along with the residents of Israel.

President Barack Obama, Secretary of State John Kerry and Ban Ki-moon can't get the ball rolling on this situation. They are being ignored and mocked by Netanyahu and that extremist group the Likud Party.

Why does America continue to support a nation that has no little care for those who aren't even involved in the conflict?

Do we have to give our unprecedented and loyal support to a country that continues to build settlements on land that the Palestinian people claim as their own?

The Gaza Strip and West Bank are disputed territories. They been longing for independence and recognition by the world. They deserve the right to exist.

The Secret Service Screws Up Again Putting President Obama's Life In Danger!

The most discipline law enforcement agency still regrets its error. They've vowed never to let that happen again. Unfortunately some didn't get the message. Some members of the president's entourage was booted after they were caught partying and drinking while on duty. 

Three members of the president's entourage are off the job after they gotten drunk and allowed a few girls over. Again this is the disrespect towards the first Black president.

Even his own personal security team is so stupid, they could have allowed a threat enter the circle.

Now because of this and the incident in Colombia, the U.S. Secret Service will now have agents stay in their rooms and do nothing. Because if you're overseas and you end up getting involved with prostitutes (some who could be working for an enemy agency), you're jeopardizing the president's

The Washington Post reports that the U.S. Secret Service arrived in the Netherlands last weekend for a presidential trip, managers were already on high alert to avoid any further embarrassing incidents involving agents.

The agency’s director had admonished supervisors after two counter-sniper officers suspected of drinking were involved in a March 7 car accident during a presidential visit to Miami, according to several people with knowledge of the incident. The driver passed a field sobriety test and was not arrested.

Secret Service supervisor George Hartford had the Miami incident in mind when he issued a warning to a group of agents gathered for dinner: Go out if you want, but stay out of trouble.

By the next morning, Hartford was pounding on the hotel door of a 34-year-old junior agent who had passed out drunk in a hallway and later had to be lifted into his room by several hotel employees, according to a hotel spokesman and two other people familiar with the incident. The agent claimed to have no memory of the events.

That night on the town has created another highly public embarrassment for the elite Secret Service, which is still attempting to recover from a tawdry drinking-and-prostitution scandal two years ago during a presidential trip to Cartagena, Colombia.

The new incident — which unfolded in the hotel where President Obama was scheduled to arrive the following day — prompted immediate condemnation Wednesday from lawmakers in Washington. Sen. Ronald H. Johnson (R-Wis.) said the agency has a “systemic” problem of rowdy and inappropriate behavior by its agents, who are sworn to protect the president and other senior officials from harm.

White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters flying on Air Force One on Wednesday that Obama had been briefed on the Netherlands hotel incident. The president believes “that everybody representing the United States of America overseas needs to hold himself or herself to the highest standards,” Carney said, adding that Obama retains confidence in Secret Service Director Julia Pierson.

After the unconscious agent was found in the hall Sunday morning, the hotel staff alerted White House staff that it had relayed the news to Secret Service managers, according to the people familiar with the incident. After a series of interviews, agency managers concluded that the passed-out agent and two others who went drinking with him had violated new rules meant to prevent improper conduct on official trips.

In Amsterdam — a city of 1 million with an international reputation for partying, open drug use and legalized prostitution — the trio had stayed out drinking until about 2:30 a.m. Sunday, though all were scheduled to start work at 10 a.m., according to a preliminary investigation. The time frame would put them in violation of a ban on drinking in the 10 hours before an assignment.

Secret Service spokesman Ed Donovan said one of the agents involved was sent home Sunday afternoon and the other two went back early Monday morning; all are on administrative leave. Pierson, who traveled with Obama aboard Air Force One to the Netherlands, signed off on the decision, he said.

The alleged misconduct did not jeopardize the president’s visit or cause “operational issues,” Donovan said. Obama’s safety was “not affected by the three getting sent home.”

The men, all members of the agency’s Counter Assault Team (CAT), had to be temporarily replaced by other agents in the country until additional agents could be flown in to meet up with Obama’s entourage at his next destination, Brussels, the people familiar with the matter said.

Those with knowledge of the internal investigation said the incident infuriated managers because it came less than three weeks after the traffic accident in Miami, which led to the two officers involved being sent home. Local police gave one of the officers a field sobriety test on suspicion of drunk driving but released him with a citation for the accident and no additional charges, those familiar with the incident said.

The two officers, who serve in the uniformed division, notified their superiors of the accident. They were ordered to return to Washington under Pierson’s “no tolerance” policy, an official familiar with the matter said. The two men continue to work for the agency.

It was one of several times in her year-long tenure that Pierson reiterated to her senior aides the need for all personnel to abide by agency rules of conduct, the official said.

The pivotal events in the Netherlands played out at the Huis Ter Duin hotel, a 254-room facility facing the North Sea in the resort town of Noordwijk, between Amsterdam and The Hague. Hotel officials initially denied an incident involving a drunk Secret Service agent after it was first reported by The Washington Post; by late Wednesday, a spokesman had confirmed key details.

Huis Ter Duin spokesman Stephan Stokkermans said the three guests involved in the incident, whom he declined to identify, under hotel privacy rules, arrived in an apparently intoxicated condition at the hotel early Sunday morning by taxi.

“They came in, they waved to the team at the reception desk,” Stokkermans said. “It was clear they had a good time, but they didn’t need any help.”

Later that morning, he said, a hotel employee discovered one of those guests sleeping in the hallway about 10 feet from his room, which had a key-card-style lock. It was about 30 feet from the nearest elevator, and the employee summoned co-workers for assistance.

“In the end, there were two persons helping the man back to his room, plus the employee who found him,” Stokkermans said.

It is a common enough event at the Huis Ter Duin that the hotel has protocols for guests that are found sleeping in hallways or on couches, which happens every two or three weeks, Stokkermans said.

Rep. Bennie Thompson (Miss.), the ranking Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee, said the Netherlands case was the first report of potential misconduct he and colleagues had heard about since Pierson assumed leadership of the Secret Service a year ago. “But for a person charged with protecting the president to be found unconscious in a hotel hallway puts a real question mark in the minds of a lot of people as to whether or not those rules have been understood,” Thompson said.

In the Netherlands, the scandal spread quickly and local media devoted reporters to calling lists of Amsterdam watering holes. And in Noordwijk, drivers puttering in the Huis Ter Duin lobby said they had been besieged with text messages from friends asking about the incident. But none said they had heard any gossip about it until the news broke.

Euro Paper Throws The Monkey At The Obamas!

Sad.

The racist right is over in Europe. I understand the president's popularity over in Europe isn't a good as it was in 2009, but however they really had to keep this nonsense to a minimum. 

The Huffington Post reports that a Belgian newspaper is under fire for an image it printed showing President Barack Obama and the First Lady as apes.

The progressive newspaper De Morgen is being accused of racism for the image along with an article it published just prior to Obama's visit to the Netherlands Monday morning.

The image clearly depicts the couple as two apes-- an editorial decision that has been slammed as "stale racist drivel."

The article was reportedly a satirical piece that also joked about Obama selling marijuana. The newspaper packaged the photos as if they had been submitted by Russian president Vladimir Putin, Metro said Sunday.

The picture was joined by a message reading, “Vladimir Putin is the president of Russia. He sent us this attachment at our request, and chose to send pictures instead of text 'because he doesn't have a lot of time',” the Independent said.

While the article has many readers outraged, there are also readers who have come to the newspapers defense. "It was a joke," one Reddit user said.

"In their defense, there are tons upon tons of pictures and t-shirts with Bush drawn as an ape," another user wrote.

De Morgen apologizes but Van Springel (the satirist) thinks that satire ought not to offend. He is shocked by the outrage #DeMorgen, #Obama
— chika unigwe (@chikaunigwe) March 24, 2014

De Morgen apologized for the image in its Monday edition, admitting it was guilty of "bad taste."

"When you consider the fragment apart from its context, which is a properly worked out satirical section, then you don't see the joke but just a picture evoking sheer racism," the newspaper said. "We wrongly assumed that racism is no longer accepted, and that in this way it could be the subject of a joke."

Unigwe, who lives in Belgium, went on to tweet in depth about the controversial spread, noting that the fault lies with Belgian society moreso than De Morge.

So It's Obama's Fault The Interpreter Didn't Know What The Hell He Was Doing!

The interpreter didn't work well.

While the American and British junk food media obsess over the president's handshake with Raul Castro and the "selfie" with Prime Ministers David Cameron and Helle Thorning-Schmidt, here comes another bone for the media chew on.

The interpreter for the Nelson Mandela memorial was bogus. Many in the American sign language community call this guy a fraud. It's a fraud that managed to take off in the junk food media.

The interpreter was begging for forgiveness and calling himself a schizophrenic. He thought he was doing a great job at this. Unfortunately many felt that he penetrated the security of President Barack Obama, and the U.S. Secret Service will probably investigate with the South African company that hired this guy on.

The Washington Post reports that sign language interpreters and deaf advocates have accused the interpreter at Nelson Mandela’s memorial service of being a “fake” -- an egregious mistake if true, but also a glimpse into another, lesser-seen consequence of apartheid.

The interpreter, who still hasn't yet been identified, made few facial expressions during Mandela’s service and appeared to gesture more or less at random. Facial expressions can be a key part of signing speeches, since they convey emotion that hand signals do not. And four sign language experts told the Associated Press that the man’s hand movements were “gibberish,” part of neither American nor South African sign language.

Caitlin Dewey wrote that the interpreter was a huge embarrassment for South Africa -- particularly considering the country’s racially charged history with signing. As late as the 1980s, South Africa employed different sign languages for whites and blacks, making it next to impossible for deaf blacks to get jobs or educations.

Apartheid-era disenfranchisement was also worse for the handicapped. The Rev. Cyril Axelrod, a Catholic priest who lobbied for change in the deaf community and was profiled by the Post in 1982, once came upon a group of 170 black deaf children, some as old as 15, who couldn’t read, write or sign as a result of discriminatory education policies.

Yeah, I agree that the interpreter is fraud. Yeah, he shouldn't been near President Barack Obama.

The company should be investigated for hiring this guy.

At least the interpreter didn't try anything funny on the president.

Did you know that American media covered the "selfie" and handshake more than the president's speech about Nelson Mandela?

Did you know that Loserville had the least amount of time covering the event than Obama News and CNN?

Did you know that the racist right is fuming over the president attending the funeral of Mandela instead of the funeral of Margret Thatcher?

How many people know where South Africa is?

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words!

He's a flirt.

President Barack Obama's flirting charm with the Danish prime minister has the junk food media here in the United States and Britain talking about the look on First Lady Michelle Obama's face.

The Nelson Mandela funeral (memorial service) has brought world leaders together. They all come to pay homage to a great leader.

You know the president's best friend is his wife. And you can tell when a woman is annoyed.

Look at the first lady's reaction to the president huddling up with Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain and Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt of the Danish kingdom.

Your take on First Lady Obama's expression!

It's priceless.

Anyway, the junk food media will be rabble rousing about this. And then of course, this will be another ridiculous controversy. Say a minor handshake with a leader of a country, some here consider an "enemy".

Mandela who spent 27 years of his life in the iron college fought for ending apartheid in the country of South Africa. At the time, 90% of the Black population was being discriminated by the 10% White minority.

There was fierce oppression in this country. It was a long road for the people of South Africa.

Mandela being released from prison became an icon of goodwill and ambassador of cultural change.

Obama, along with former presidents George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter attended the memorial service of Mandela.
