Sons of Islam everywhere, the jihad is a duty - to establish the rule of Allah on earth and to liberate your countries and yourselves from America's domination and its Zionist allies, it is your battle - either victory or martyrdom.Sheikh A. YassinAccording to Robert Spencer, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is revamping the State Department Lexicon with the orders to eliminate the words jihad and jihadi.The argument, of course, is the old Streusand/Guirard claim that by using the word jihad, we're validating the jihadist claim to be waging jihad. Of course, it's ridiculous to think that the U.S. State Department carries any validating authority within the Islamic world to determine what is Islam and what isn't. This would be the first time that unbelievers have set the meaning of Islam
It's hard to believe that Condoleezza Rice is so obtuse that she fails to recognize that one of the many problems Arab nations have in committing to debt relief and establishing embassies in Baghdad is none other than Nouri Al-Maliki. It's Maliki's failure to keep Iran in check and his government's less than democratic approach to ensuring his government is representative of all Iraqi people that is keeping Arab leaders at arm's length. Rather than embracing Maliki, Arab leaders see a huge Iranian presence in Iraq and worry over Maliki fermenting sectarian warfare. His mishandling of the military attacks on Moqtada Al-Sadr's forces have many questioning his judgment.Rice Fails to Clinch Firm Arab Commitments on Iraq By Lachlan Carmichael Middle East Online The United States met Sunni-led

It’s about time someone in this administration grew a set, and responded to the asinine liberal-like comments by Mike Schmuckabee about the Bush adminstration’s foreign policy. This from the AP:
Rice: Huckabee’s Criticism Is “Ludicrous”
In a brief foray into politics, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Friday denounced comments by a leading Republican presidential candidate that the Bush administration’s foreign policy is arrogant and unilateral.
“The idea that somehow this is a go-it-alone policy is just simply ludicrous,” she said at a State Department news conference. “One would only have to be not observing the facts, let me say that, to say that this is now a go-it-alone foreign policy.”
I don’t want to hear from all you Schmuckabee supporters out there… I’m done giving this clown the benefit of the doubt. The more he opens his mouth the more he sounds just like a lib Surrendercr

And I'm delighted to see a great deal of progress thanks to your efforts and the efforts of the Multi-National Forces and the Iraqi security forces. That really has changed the situation on the ground. I think today was one of the rare moments where Secretary Rice had lunch in the Red Zone in Baghdad. I think it was an interesting experience.Anyway, but there has been a great deal of progress as you can see. This is thanks, you see, to the joint efforts by the Iraqi Government and the help and the support of the Multi-National forces. These gains are really very significant. We see them in the streets of Baghdad in many provinces. This needs to be pressed on. I
Washington, D.C. - El balance del poder mundial cambió para siempre en el día de ayer luego de que el Gobernador de Puerto Rico, Aníbal Acevedo Vilá, hiciera buena su promesa de retirar todo apoyo a los Estados Unidos frente a las Naciones Unidas, en represalia por el alegado engaño que realizó dicha nación a Puerto Rico y al mundo al decir que existía un pacto entre ambos paises bajo el Estado Libre Asociado. El Gobernador le informó en una carta a la Secretaria de Estado, Condoleezza Rice, que si la Casa Blanca realmente apoyaba el informe de su Task Force, que establecía que el ELA no era una solución final al estatus, pues claramente le mintieron a sabiendas a Puerto Rico en 1953. Aseguró que ante tal situación, no tendría más opción que "retirar el apoyo tradicional que le hemos dado a los Estados Unidos ante la ONU sobre este asunto", específicamente ante Irán, Venezuela y Cuba, las cuales cuestionan la relación entre Estados Unidos y Puerto Rico.Señoras y se
These statements coming from Condoleezza Rice about Russia are pretty ironic considering you could substitute Bush’s dictatorial regime for the Putin regime.
The Russian government under Vladimir Putin has amassed so much central authority that the power-grab may undermine Moscow’s commitment to democracy.
“In any country, if you don’t have countervailing institutions, the power of any one president is problematic for democratic development.”
“I think there is too much concentration of power in the Kremlin. I have told the Russians that. Everybody has doubts about the full independence of the judiciary. There are clearly questions about the independence of the electronic media and there are, I think, questions about the strength of the Duma,” said Rice, referring to the Russian parliament.
Rice’s State Department frequently has criticized what Washington regards as creeping authoritarianism among Putin and other top Russian leaders. What about the creeping aut
Condoleezza Rice est possiblement l’une des figures américaines les plus détestées de la planète avec Georges W. Bush et Dick Cheney. Elle nous parle sans cesse de «démocratie» et de «liberté». Mais dans quel sens ? Liberté d’exploiter les masses pour les propriétaires ? Démocratie bourgeoise pour les patrons ? Cette dernière dans laquelle les citoyenNEs ont reçoive la liberté de choisir entre des partis politiques qui se ressemblent tous ?
Récemment, elle critiquait durement la Russie et la «concentration du pouvoir dans les mains de Vladimir Poutine». Même si nous pouvons être en accord sur le fait que le gouvernement Poutine va parfois trop loin, elle est très mal placée pour l’accuser. Nous n’aimons nullement Poutine au Reactionism Watch, mais cela ne nous empêche pas de l’appuyer sur ses critiques contre Bush, ou bien quand il refuse l’implantation de bases militaires américaines près du territoire russe.

We all know Bush & Company will do ANYTHING to continue the fraudulent and illegal sham that they are perpetuating on the American people. The words truth, honor, justice, integrity, and protect the Constitution have, in the Bush White House, become falsehoods, dishonesty, injustice, deceit, and betrayal of the Constitution. The only person left in the Administration that might have had even a smidgen of integrity left was Condolezza Rice. But even she has fallen to the dark side of the Force.
Some of the methods the Administration has used over the years is the cover of “National Security”, “National Interest” and “Executive Privilege” to hide their illegal activities and failed policies from the American people. National Security means Bush’s Security, National Interest means Bush’s interest, and Executive Privilege means Fuck off Congress. The less the people and Congress know, the better.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says that with Barack Obama running for President and having so much popularity this early in the 2008 elections that it will not be long until race isn’t an issue.
Rice said “I do think we’ve come a long way in overcoming stereotypes, role stereotypes about African-Americans. I will say race is still a factor. When a person walks into a room, I still think people still see race.” She also said “But it’s less and less of a barrier to believing that that person can be your doctor or your lawyer or a professor in your university or the CEO of a company. And it will not be long, I think, before it’s no longer a barrier to being president of the United States.”
Republican Condoleezza Rice, despite high popularity ratings, is not going to run for president in the 2008 elections. However, she did note that if she were to continue as Secretary of State through the end of President Bush’s term,

Steve's support of the arts dates all the way back to his college years. And many of you, like me, will be impressed to know that Steve actually founded a Yale ballet society. Now he has since said that that was because he wanted to meet girls. (Laughter.) I think, though, it has translated into a real love of the arts. And with his
