(Reuters) - Ukraine's defense minister said on Sunday that NATO countries were delivering weapons to his country to equip it to fight pro-Russian separatists and "stop" Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Valery Heletey told a news conference he had discussed weapons deliveries in bilateral meetings with NATO defense ministers during a NATO summit in Wales on Sept. 4-5.
NATO officials have said it will not send "lethal assistance" to non-member Ukraine but member states may do so.
Earlier this month, a senior Ukrainian official said Kiev had agreed on the provision of weapons and military advisers from several members of the U.S.-led alliance. Four of the five countries named, including the United States, denied this.
"We reached agreements in closed talks, without media, about ... those weapons that we currently need," said Heletey, who said Ukraine needed weapons "that could stop Putin".
"I have no right to disclose any specific country we reached that agreement with. But the fact is that those weapons are already on the way to us - that's absolutely true, I can officially tell you," he said.
Heletey said about 3,500 Russian troops were now on Ukrainian territory with a further 25,000 massed on the Russian side of the joint border.
Moscow denies accusations by Kiev and its Western backers that it has sent troops and tanks into eastern Ukraine to support separatists in a conflict with Ukrainian forces that has killed more than 3,000 people.
A ceasefire negotiated by envoys from Ukraine, Russia, the separatists and Europe's OSCE security watchdog has been in place in eastern Ukraine since Sept. 5.
It is broadly holding despite regular but sporadic violations, especially in key flashpoints such as Donetsk.

EDITORIAL: Detroit police chief wants citizens to arm themselves

EDITORIAL: Detroit police chief wants citizens to arm themselves

Motor City’s top cop says it time to invoke the Second Amendment
- - Monday, January 6, 2014
Motor City has become Murder City. With 333 homicides of all kinds last year, Detroit tops the list of major cities under siege by violent criminals. The man with the nation’s most thankless job, Detroit Police Chief James E. Craig, shocked the establishment when he said last week that he thinks the solution to Motown’s crime is more guns.
Chief Craig served nearly three decades in the Los Angeles Police Department, where “it took an act of Congress” to get permission to carry a gun. That’s how he once thought things ought to be done. He was a standard-issue big-city police official. Then he moved east to become the top cop in Portland, Maine, one of the safest cities he had ever been in and where many people own guns.
Suddenly, an epiphany. “Suspects knew that good Americans were armed,” he says. Now in Detroit, Chief Craig credits the decrease in crime in part to the “a number of [concealed-carry permit] holders running around the city of Detroit.” If more Detroit citizens were armed, Chief Craig told a news conference last week, criminals would think twice before attacking them.
That reflects what Wayne LaPierre of the National Rifle Association said in the wake of the Sandy Hook school shootings in Newtown, Conn., last year. “The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun,” he said, “is a good guy with a gun.” But that’s apostasy among liberals. Few big-city police chiefs have the courage to speak up on anything controversial unless it’s to parrot the views of the liberal mayors who hire them and fire them.
Beat cops have never been persuaded that depriving citizens of the right to defend themselves and their families with a gun is anything more than disarming the victim. In 2011, a survey of police officers by the National Association of Chiefs of Police found that 98 percent of those surveyed think “any law-abiding citizen [should] be able to purchase a firearm for sport and self-defense.” Seventy-nine percent think someone with a permit to carry a gun in one state should be allowed to carry it concealed in another.
Chief Craig sees the results firsthand of legal gun ownership. There have been 73 “justifiable homicides” in Detroit since 2011, and only 15 in 2013. Most of these, reports The Detroit News, involved residents such as 76-year-old Willie White, who fatally shot a man who broke into his home. His house had been broken into several times before he confronted and fatally shot an 18-year-old thug who had broken in in 2012. Mr. White told The News, “… these criminals would definitely think twice if they knew more citizens were armed.”
Detroit is bankrupt financially, but not in a police chief with courage and initiative, and citizens who are determined to take their city back from criminals.

British Muslim Leaders Demand PM Stop Using Name “Islamic State,” Say It Should Be Called “Un-Islamic State”…

British Muslim Leaders Demand PM Stop Using Name “Islamic State,” Say It Should Be Called “Un-Islamic State”…


Claim Cameron is spreading jihadist propaganda by calling ISIS by its formal name.
Via Independent:
Calling the terror group that today claimed to have killed another aid worker the Islamic State legitimises it, and politicians should stop using its preferred name to help halt the radicalisation of British Muslims, leading groups have said.
A group of prominent Muslims has written to David Cameron to ask that he uses a different name for the group, and to lead a national debate on what it should be called.
“We propose that ‘Un-Islamic State’ (UIS) could be an accurate and fair alternative name to describe this group and its agenda – and we will begin to call it that,” the letter says.
Signatories to the letter include Sughra Ahmed, the president of the Islamic Society of Britain. Members of New Horizons in British Islam, the Association of British Muslims and the Association of Muslim Lawyers also signed the letter.
Using the group’s preferred name could help it radicalise yet more Britons, the signatories wrote.

BREAKING: House Republicans Take the Stand for Our Jailed Marine That Obama WON’T [WATCH]

BREAKING: House Republicans Take the Stand for Our Jailed Marine That Obama WON’T [WATCH]

In the almost six months since U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi was taking into custody by Mexican officials at the border, countless Americans have spoken up in his support.
Largely absent from that discussion has been the administration of President Barack Obama.
Many have called for boycotts of Mexican products and travel until Tahmooressi is released. Many more have taken to the streets to demonstrate in support of the jailed Marine and against the Obama administration that has all but ignored his plight. Even Lt. Col. Oliver North has called for decisive action from the Obama administration to get Tahmooressi back home.
Now some House Republicans are taking action because President Obama won’t, according to a report from Fox News.
Appearing with Greta van Susteren, Montel Williams and Rep. Matt Salmon announced a House subcommittee hearing into Tahmooressi’s situation.
Get our daily email alert by entering your Email:
The Marine has been in a Mexican jail since the end of March after crossing into Mexican territory carrying all that he owned in his pickup truck because he was in the process of moving from Florida to Texas. His possessions included three legally-owned firearms that Mexico considers “military grade,” and therefore illegal. Tahmooressi has insisted all along that his border crossing was accidental.
The subcommittee hearing is scheduled for Oct. 1.
“The president has had ample opportunity to pick up the phone and call the president of Mexico,” Salmon said, speaking of his reasons for championing the hearing.
Click here to find out which famous actor took a public stand for jailed U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi.
Williams, a 22-year veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps himself, says that Tahmooressi suffers from PTSD as a result of his combat duty and is not getting the treatment he needs from the Mexican government.
“This is about taking care of our soldiers who give us the right to speak out this way,” Williams added.
Sgt. Tahmooressi’s commander in chief has all but ignored this situation, but that’s why the Founders provided us with a free press–so that Americans would be informed about stories that the government might prefer to sweep under the rug.
Tahmooressi’s service to his country is, as Williams said, one of the reasons why America enjoys this freedom. It’s time for America to return the favor.

I TOLD YOU OBAMA PLANNED THIS BECAUSE WE WOULDNT LET HIM KILL ASSAD SO HE RAISED UP ISIS TO GET THIS WAR GOING SO HE CAN START WW3

D.C. Whispers: Obama Remarks, “We’re Using ISIL To Take Out Assad”

Just a few hours before he gave a prime time address to the nation regarding his plan to “take out ISIL”, sources indicate the president was dropping considerable hints at how the war on ISIS/ISIL will be used for a much broader effort to re-organize much of the Middle East – starting with the overthrow of Syria’s Bashar Assad. 

“Assad is part of the deal. I’m not done with him.  He’s gone, and then we can take a look at the rest of the Middle East.”

______________________________

A longtime Congressional source said the following:

“The president has been pouting over his Syria humiliation for months, repeatedly asking for a way to save face. Part of the deal with getting him to go along with the anti-ISIS effort, was convincing him the campaign could lead to overthrowing Assad as well. Apparently, it was only when that was put on the table that Barack Obama’s enthusiasm for going after ISIL improved.”

And the president has reportedly not been shy to let others know he has not given up on the idea of taking out Assad.

“A few hours before he gave his address to the nation on ISIL, the president told at least one major new source I know of, that ‘Assad is part of the deal. I’m not done with him.  He’s gone, and then we can take a look at the rest of the Middle East.‘”

The Congressional staffer went on to explain what he feels is the true source of the president’s animosity toward the Syrian strongman:

“I’ve come to believe Syria was the second in line for a re-organization of the Middle East. Egypt was first, though the Egyptian military and business interests took that back from the administration and the Muslim Brotherhood, so getting Assad out became that much more important to a very select and powerful few in the White House. I’ll also add something the media refuses to report – the Syrian rebels are the Muslim Brotherhood. There’s very little daylight between the two groups and both of them have direct and very long standing links to Iran and Turkey. If you were to sit down and go over the Intel reports of the last three decades, you cannot find a time when Turkey and Iran were as close as they are today, which tells me something is up, and this White House seems like they’re plenty happy to be going along with it. Did you know Hamas leaders met with Iranian officials just 48 hours before a barrage of rockets were fired by Hamas into Israel?
“And what organization do you think is waiting in the wings if Assad falls in Syria? The Muslim Brotherhood which has had a series of recent meetings with their counterparts in Qatar, the same country that was primarily responsible for the Bergdahl-Taliban 5 swap. Qatar seems to be publicly distancing themselves from the Brotherhood while privately supporting them. I would assume that is out of deference/fear  to/of  Saudi Arabia but frankly, the whole thing is so convoluted at this point I can’t say for certain.
“Now if all this isn’t enough for you already, I’ll add a very specific name to the mix, Imam Mohamed Magedi.


The name might be familiar to some of your readers due to his association within the administration, but I’ll wager they didn’t know he met with both the president and Valerie Jarrett multiple times in recent weeks and I’m told, has been providing regular input on the ISIL/ISIS situation. Another troubling aspect of this is that as head of the ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) he has been pushing very hard for fast tracking immigration into the United States of Muslims, and Valerie Jarrett is said to be his strongest supporter in this.  
“That is upsetting enough, but now I’m afraid I have to add another even more disturbing layer to this destruction of America pie. The push for immigration reform and the chaos in the Middle East are related, and here is how. With the war being waged against ISIL/ISIS, there will be reports of millions of refugees across the Middle East. Those refugees will then seek asylum in the United States, and how easy will it be for figures like Imam Mohamed Magedi to then use those “refugees” to form a far bigger and more organized Islamic presence in America? Very easy, and it could then happen very quickly. Don’t forget, the president has already indicated multiple times of Executive Authority to be used after the November elections to deal with the fabricated “immigration crisis.” 
“Keep a close eye on the ISIS/ISIL/Assad triangle. If the administration pushes our military forces into Syria under the umbrella of going after terrorists, you’ll have at least some idea of what they are really up to.”

Muslims Are Already Slaughtering Christians In America (Get Ready For More Persecution Of Christians In Your Own Country)

Muslims Are Already Slaughtering Christians In America (Get Ready For More Persecution Of Christians In Your Own Country)


Muslims are already slaughtering Christians in America. Get ready for more persecution of Christians in your own country.
In one of the recent murders almost totally ignored by mainstream media, a 19 year old Roman Catholic named Brendan Tevlin was shot to death by an African American Muslim named Ali Muhammad Brown in New Jersey.
Brendan was a Eucharistic minister in the Catholic Church and also who volunteered playing the bagpipe in funerals. The slaughter of this innocent Catholic was considered by Brown, a "just kill," and that he was seeking vengeance for what is happening to Muslims in "Iraq, Syria, (and) Afghanistan."
Brown was driving his jeep, and he just had texted his mother that he was coming home, when he stopped at a red light, Ali shot Brendan 8 times in his jeep. Ali then drove the jeep to an apartment complex where he stole undisclosed items from the Christian martyr.
As part of his jihad, Ali murdered 3 other Americans earlier this year. The Christian humility of Brendan is reflected in what he wrote in his college application:
If the world were to stop spinning at this very moment, could you honestly say you are satisfied with what you have accomplished in your life? I couldn't […] Most importantly […] I haven't made the difference that I know that I personally can make.

What's even more sickening is how the Catholic bishops in America are not intensely informing their congregations that one of their own was murdered by a Muslim heretic in America. They are too busy appeasing homosexuals and Muslims.
When a white police officer kills a black man, people scream racism and want to start a race war before a verdict is even made, but when a black Muslim murders a white Christian, the media does not even want to cover it.
I remember telling people years ago that the African American Islamic movement will be the one doing the dirty work for the Muslims in America. Many of them converted to Islam in prison, and thus they have no problems, nor do they lack the nerves, to kill and commit other crimes against America. They already have the criminal instinct, and now they are applying it for the advancement of their heresy.
The violence done by Muslims in America will be done, to a large extent, by converts to Islam. They are already amongst us. For example a girl in Colorado converted to Islam and was supporting ISIS, as we read from one report:
A 19-year-old suburban Denver woman who federal authorities say intended to wage jihad has pleaded guilty to trying to help the Islamic State militant group in Syria. Shannon Conley pleaded guilty Wednesday in federal court in Denver to one count of conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization. She wore a black and brown headscarf with her striped jail uniform. Authorities say she was arrested at the Denver airport in April as she boarded a flight she hoped would get her to Syria. Documents say Conley told FBI agents that she wanted to use her skills as a nurse's aide to help the militants. Agents repeatedly tried to discourage her. Authorities say she wanted to marry a man she met online who claimed to be fighting with the Islamic State group. – See more at:

And ISIS propaganda trading group recently posted these disturbing words on Twitter:
The US-Mexican border is now open large numbers of people crossing
The Texas law department found a message on Twitter from ISIS, saying
Americans in for ruin (sic).

ISIS wants to cross into the United States through the US-Mexican border. The Texas Department of Public Safety has given this warning:
A review of ISIS social media messaging during the week ending August 26 shows that militants are expressing an increased interest in the notion that they could clandestinely infiltrate the southwest border of US, for terror attack … Social media account holders believed to be ISIS militants and propagandists have called for unspecified border operations, or they have sought to raise awareness that illegal entry through Mexico is a viable option … The identities of persons operating these accounts cannot be independently verified; however the accounts were selected for monitoring based on several indications that they have been used by actual ISIS militants for propaganda purposes and collectively reach tens of thousands of followers… One account was verified as belonging to an individual located in Mosul, Iraq.

Judicial Watch has made this statement:
Agents across a number of Homeland Security, Justice and Defense agencies have all been placed on alert and instructed to aggressively work all possible leads and sources concerning this imminent terrorist threat

According to the Texas law department, some 32 Facebook and Twitter posts by jihadists have been found expressing interest in the US-Mexican border, with even "calls for border infiltration." ISIS knows that there are a large amount of people crossing into American through Mexico, and plans on using this to their advantage. As the Texas law department reports:
This Twitter account holder, who is the administrator of an ISIS propaganda trading group, stated that the time was right for such an action because "the US-Mexican border is now open large numbers of people crossing"

A man, reportedly in Houston TX, was arrested and he was wearing an ISIS logo. As our colleague, Ben Barrack, just reported:
There isn't much information on this story but it represents the second report – with photos – of an alleged ISIS fighter / sympathizer in Houston. According to a website called Political Ears,
which links to a Tea Party facebook page, the back of a man wearing body armor is seen in what looks like a police car. The ISIS logo is imprinted on the body armor.

ISIS_Houston_Police-e1410344933252

The fact that there is very little information out there about this story may be grounds for healthy skepticism. However, according to the website, the media is ignoring the story and Houston PD isn't talking. Neither one of those claims seems all that implausible. It's one thing to report ISIS beheading two Americans and an untold number of Syrians in Syria. It's quite another to have confirmation that ISIS is operating on American soil.

Last week, another website – Wounded American Warrior – posted a separate photo of a man wearing a black robe with what appears to be an ISIS logo on his back right shoulder.

ISIS_Jasons_Deli

ISIS recently put up this tweet to the US:
1408798473570_wps_9_image001_png

The message, purportedly from ISIS, also included a picture of Old Republic Building, 307 N. Michigan Ave., in Chicago, and in front of it a hand holding a piece of paper on which is written some Arabic writing reading:
ISIS will pass by here

chicago-isis-tweet

According to one report:
Over the past six years, Chicago has become a top potential target for international terrorists, a top security expert said Friday, making the posting of a veiled threat by Islamic radicals on Twitter a higher cause for concern.

"Many terror organizations refer to Chicago as Obama Town," said CBS 2 security expert Ross Rice, a former FBI agent in Chicago. Under President Obama, the U.S. took out Osama bin Laden, and used repeated drone strikes to weaken terror networks.

In the meantime, the U.S. government on Friday issued a security bulletin to all U.S. law enforcement in light of the overall threat posed by Islamic State, commonly known as ISIS or ISIL.

The ominous post on Twitter, purportedly from somebody connected with Islamic State, shows a photo of the Old Republic Building, 307 N. Michigan Ave., in Chicago and the White House.

As we have said before, there will be more attacks on the United States worse than 9/11. Be prepared.
Be prepared to see more Christian martyrdoms, instead it won't be in another country, but right in your own backyard.
