Headline News Analysis

1. President Trump issued a new temporary Travel Ban.

NEWS BRIEF: "PRESIDENT TRUMP LAUNCHES NEW TEMPORARY TRAVEL BAN: HERE'S WHAT'S IN IT", Breaking Christian News, March 6. 2017

"President Donald Trump signed a new revised immigration order Monday, blocking people from certain countries with ties to terrorism from entering the United States. The new travel ban replaces the previous version that sparked protests and court rulings. The Trump administration has worked hard to create a new version that can withstand the expected legal battle."

"In a Fox News interview, Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway says the new immigration order includes "six or seven" points, explaining the temporary ban and halting the nation's refugee program. The new order will clearly not apply to legal permanent residents and will leave Iraq off the list of countries whose residents would be temporarily banned.

"Conway also said the new version would not indefinitely bar Syrian refugees.

"The draft outlined to lawmakers last week includes citizens from Iran, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen, Syria, and Libya."

But, even though his order was legally sound, Hawaii immediately challenged it.

NEWS BRIEF: "Krikorian Warns: Revised Immigration Order Legally Sound, but Trump Opponents Will ‘Find at Least One Federal Judge’ to Block It", Breitbart News, 7 March 2017

"The changes are mostly in response to the legal challenges, and I think the point here, the goal here, is to try to keep federal judges from stopping this executive order, the way they did the previous one', Krikorian explained. 'So they explicitly exempted people who had green cards, for instance, even if they were from those countries. They explicitly exempted people who had visas issued before the first executive order. In other words, they already had visas in hand before then'.”

Removing Iraq from the list of countries who were excluded was a major political decision, and not a good one at that.

" 'For political reasons, they removed Iraq from the list of seven countries, now six countries, whose citizens would be barred for 90 days', he continued. 'It’s really just a pause. And the other thing specifically that I think probably was related to the court cases was they removed the special refugee reference to Syria ... now, it’s all refugees, including Syrians, are on hold for 120 days while they look at how they can redo the vetting.”

Congress has given the President broad authority to keep any illegal immigrants out of this country, for whatever reason, but Liberal Democrats are pretending to insist that this is not the case, and have succeeded in throwing the Trump Administration on the defensive. It seems that it is not enough to be legally right, the President needs to seize the PR high ground.

The bottom line?

"Krikorian predicted that despite the care put into crafting this revised executive order, 'they’re going to find at least one federal judge, maybe more, who will block this'.”

We did not have to wait long for a Liberal Judge to step in, as the State of Hawaii moved quickly.

NEWS BRIEF: "State of Hawaii challenges new travel ban", The Times-Picayune News, March 8, 2017

"The state of Hawaii said in a court filing Tuesday that it intends to file a legal challenge to President Donald Trump's revamped executive order pausing refugee resettlement and immigration from six majority-Muslim countries ... In a court filing in the state, Hawaii Attorney General Douglas Chin asks the court to approve a swift briefing schedule on the state's intended request for a temporary restraining order blocking the new travel ban before it takes effect on March 16."

Once President Trump is able to convince American voters that his immigration policy is legal, Constitutional, and common sense, these antics of Liberals all throughout this country could easily doom the Democrat Party to a minor role for decades and decades to come.

But, first, the President must fight and prevail!

President Lincoln was correct when he stated that America could be brought down only by treason from within.

2. Trump's Executive Order mandates full reporting on all "honor killings" by illegal immigrants.

NEWS BRIEF: "Trump’s Executive Order Mandates Government Reports on Honor Killings Committed by Migrants: No Sharia Law", Breitbart News, 6 March 2017

"President Donald Trump’s executive order halting the importation of refugees from six terror-exporting countries also includes a section requiring the government to publicly release information on crimes committed by foreign nationals, including honor killings of women."

"The government will now track cases involving foreign-born individuals who commit “gender-based violence against women,” or honor killings. Honor killings are a brutal practice wherein Muslim males will murder or mutilate female family members accused of bringing shame and dishonor to their families and Islam. Like female genital mutilation, it is a practice that would not exist in the U.S. without mass immigration bringing its practitioners into U.S. communities."

As in Europe, the American government would not report any concrete news which would highlight the physical danger loyal citizens are suddenly facing because their governments are colluding to bring anti-American foreigners to our land by the hundreds of thousands.

Maybe now, we will know the truth as to how prevalent violent crimes are within the Islamic people now suddenly living within us. Once that statistic is burned into the minds of the American people, support for common-sense immigration policies will turn abruptly toward the Trump White House.

3. Obama is truly a hypocrite!

While criticizing Trump for wiretapping activities, the former president is revealed as ordering dozens of illegal wiretaps during his 8 years in the White House.

NEWS BRIEF: "Here’s the List: More Than a Dozen Proven Victims of Obama’s Many Wiretaps - "Obamagate!", The Gateway Pundit, March 5, 2017

"The Main Stream Media and other enemies of the current President are challenging the proposition that President Obama wire tapped President Donald Trump during the 2016 Presidential race. President Trump started this discussion with his tweets over the weekend."

"This is now being referred to as Obamagate! It is not unfounded that former President Obama would wire tap President Trump during the election process. This is because he has done this before. Here is a list of individuals who were wire tapped by the Obama Administration."

* "The US National Security Agency bugged a private climate change strategy meeting; between UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon and German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Berlin"

* "Obama bugged Chief of Staff of UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) for long term interception targeting his Swiss phone"

* "Obama singled out the Director of the Rules Division of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), Johann Human, and targeted his Swiss phone for long term interception"

* "Obama stole sensitive Italian diplomatic cables detailing how Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu implored Italy’s Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi to help patch up his relationship with US President Barack Obama, who was refusing to talk to Netanyahu"

* "Obama intercepted top EU and Japanese trade ministers discussing their secret strategy..."

* "Obama explicitly targeted five other top EU economic officials for long term interception, including their French, Austrian and Belgium phone numbers"

* "Obama explicitly targeted the phones of Italy’s ambassador to NATO and other top Italian officials for long term interception"

* " Obama intercepted details of a critical private meeting between then French president Nicolas Sarkozy, Merkel and Berluscon, where the latter was told the Italian banking system was ready to 'pop like a cork'."

Furthermore, President Obama wiretapped journalists repeatedly, even prompting outrage from such Liberal news organizations as the Washington Post!

So, how can the former President, Barack Obama, accuse Trump of carrying out illegal wiretapping when his administration routinely did so? The answer is simple: Barack Obama is a hypocrite of the greatest imaginable scenario.

Congress suddenly agreed to investigate this entire wiretapping scandal.

Trump furious over alleged 'wire-tapping' by Obama: Congress agrees to investigate claim of Watergate-style dirty tricks", The Telegraph News (UK), 6 March 2017

"Donald Trump escalated his war with Barack Obama as a committee in Congress agreed to look into his claims that the former president and his administration abused executive powers in last year’s election ... In his latest high-stakes salvo ... Mr Trump had called for a congressional investigation after alleging that he was the victim of a dirty tricks campaign akin to Watergate."

"Those reports suggested the FBI had a warrant from a secret court to carry out electronic surveillance at Trump Tower."

Public Relations Tables were suddenly switched against Obama, as the question became "Did Obama order the wiretapping during the election campaign against Trump"?

We can only wait to see how all this mud flying through the air will turn out, and will finally identify those political leaders who have been responsible for flinging it in the first place!

4. Republican leaders in Congress issued a new repeal/replace for ObamaCare (Affordable Care Act), and suddenly, no one was happy!

NEWS BRIEF: "Conservatives Complain: Paul Ryan’s Healthcare Plan Replaces Obamacare with Obamacare-Lite", Breitbart News, 7 March 2017

"Conservatives remain critical of House Speaker Paul Ryan’s plan to repeal and replace Obamacare, arguing that it will create “Obamacare-lite.” Former House Freedom Caucus Chairman Jim Jordan says he does not support Ryan’s American Health Care Act. He said, “This is Obamacare by a different form. They’re still keeping the taxes in place and Medicaid expansion, and they’re starting a new entitlement.”

Why should any genuine Conservative believe anything Rep. Paul Ryan says or does? During his tenure as Speaker of the House, he routinely sold real Republicans out to the Obama White House.

President Trump will get nowhere on real insurance reform until he scraps the Ryan plan and substitutes his own. Since Trump prides himself as an expert negotiator, it is probable that he allowed the Ryan plan to be publicized and soundly rejected; but then, Mr. Trump could then negotiate a new plan, using Ryan's proposal to move away from, just as any good business negotiator would do.

5. The Jewish celebration of Purim begins with the "Feast of Esther" on Thursday and concludes on Sunday.

What is the root of this most joyous Jewish holiday?

The word, 'Purim' -- phonetically pronounced 'poo-reem'—Strong's Greek & Hebrew Dictionary, Strong's Number H6332 -- is from the root word, 'puwr', Strong's Number, H6331, which literally means, "to bring to naught", to "break", and to "crush". The Purim celebration rejoices in the Divine deliverance of the Jewish entire nation from an elaborate plan of a government official -- Haman -- to completely annihilate all Jews.

We see the story in the book of Esther, so let us spend a few moments reviewing it.

"For the complete account of the institution of Purim reference must be made to the Book of Esther. Only a brief statement is possible here. Haman, son of Hammedatha the AGAGITE who had been made prime minister by King Ahasuerus (Xerxes), bitterly hated the Jews, some of whom, as Mordecai, were rising to prominence in the empire. After Queen Vashti had been put away from her royal position for cause (Est 1:9-12), a Jewess named Esther, kinswoman and adopted daughter of Mordecai, was chosen to become the royal consort. This only increased the hatred of Haman, who in his jealous fury soon began to seek an opportune day to work his hate upon Mordecai and the whole Jewish people, and therefore resorted to the casting of the lots for the auspicious time:

"They cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, to the twelfth month, which is the month Adar" (Est 3:7). Beginning with the 1st month, all the days and months were tried with unfavorable result, until the last. At Haman's request Ahasuerus caused his scribes to send into all the realm on the 13th day of the 1st month a decree that all Jews should be put to death on the 13th day of the 12th month (Est 3:12ff). As the narrative shows, the wisdom of Mordecai, Esther's heroism, and fasting and prayer availed to foil the dastardly scheme of Haman, who had already built the gallows on which his hated rival should be hanged. Haman was himself hanged on this gallows, while Mordecai was honored yet more (Est 7:10; Est 8:1, 2).

"A second decree was issued ... that on the 13th day of the 12th month (Est 8:9, 12), the day appointed in the first decree for their extermination, the Jews should gather together and defend themselves against their foes. On that fateful day not only did the Jews successfully resist the malice of their enemies, but the public officials also, seeing that the royal favor was with the Jews, espoused their cause. In Shushan, the royal city, a second day, the 14th, was granted the Jews for vengeance on their foes (Est 9:11-16). In view of so great a deliverance "Mordecai wrote these things .... unto all the Jews .... to enjoin them that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly, as the days wherein the Jews had rest from their enemies (Est 9:20-22).

—International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

Ever since these days of Haman, Esther and Mordecai, the Jews have celebrated the Divine deliverance of the entire Jewish nation from the diabolical plan to annihilate all the Jews on one single day throughout the Empire. You can see the hand of Satan behind the plot, as the "casting of the lots" - Pur -- caused the prescribed day of the annihilation to fall upon the 13th day of the month of Adar. Satan's favorite number of extreme rebellion against God is '13'. Haman's exceedingly great hatred completely consumed him, allowing him to think of nothing else but annihilation of the Jews.

In the end, God caused Haman to fall into the trap he had prepared for Israel. Throughout the Scripture, God has warned that the wicked man who prepares a trap for others will, himself, fall into that trap. Let us quickly review some of these Divine warnings:

1. "He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it" [Eccl 10:8]

2. "He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made." [Psalms 7:15]

3. "Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him." [Prov 26:27]

Thus the warning from God against the wicked who plot a wicked trap for someone else to fall in, is that he shall himself fall into that trap. If this principle be true for an average sinner, how much more true should it be for someone who is planning to annihilate God's Chosen People, the "Apple of His Eye"? Thus, in the chronicle of Haman, the Jews rose up once the King allowed them to defend themselves and slew over 75,000 people who were to participate in Haman's planned slaughter. God caused a fear of the Jew to come upon the citizenry, thus making possible the slaughter of the citizens who had planned to participate in Haman's plan.

A brief review of Purim should persuade all haters of Jews that, since the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is both Eternal and Omnipotent, a fight against Israel is futile and dangerous to the health and well-being of all opponents of the Jew.
