PHILADELPHIA, PA / DECEMBER 12, 2009 / DIVERSE NEWS — With the exterior having an almost White House look next to its twin, the Free Library, Philly’s family court, along with its terrazzo flooring and marble accents, gives you the ‘feeling’ of a place of honor. But it has its politics like every place else.
But sure, there are some good stories that come out of here and you will hear about it in the news when it does -like every 3 years or so- and it always gets good press with almost masonic mystique.
What doesn’t get good press is the horror stories. Of course, to protect family confidentiality laws, only initials can be given.
Last week, in one of many cases over the past 14 years, M.S. (a Disabled American Veteran) was once again denied custody of his child. This after very disturbing incidents claimed by the child (you can guess) from one of the mother’s boyfriends. Yet, the court is making a path for the mother, after rehab (‘parenting classes’), to gain custody – but not the Muslim father, just supervised visitation. The father had never been part of that type of abuse but the court and its Semitic judges, who just ‘happened’ to be assigned to all of M.S.’s custody cases, have found ways and means to deny him custody. M.S. had called many lawyers over the years about this discrimination but it kept coming. Read More »
INDIANAPOLIS (November 23, 2009) – The American Legion’s Operation Comfort Warriors program is donating gift cards to the men and women who were wounded at Ft. Hood earlier this month.
“Americans everywhere have reached out to these victims,” American Legion National Commander Clarence E. Hill said. “It’s only appropriate that The American Legion family does its share. We have sent $3,800 so each of the 38 wounded can receive $100 gift cards to use at the Ft. Hood AAFES (post exchange). This is on top of the $10,000 of electronic games and instruments we sent in Operation Comfort Warriors donations to Ft. Hood just prior to the shootings. These gifts won’t make the injuries go away, but they do show that we care.
“The government does a good job of providing the necessities,” Hill continued. “Through Operation Comfort Warriors we have been able to provide gifts to troops in military hospitals everywhere. These are items that usually don’t appear in government budgets, such as personal sweat suits, I-Pods, DVDs, phone calling cards and other comfort goods. The American Legion is challenging its members and friends to continue giving to those who have already given us so much.”
The American Legion has already raised more than $217,000 for Operation Comfort Warriors since its inception last December. Read More »

PHILADELPHIA, PA / November 12, 2009 / DIVERSE NEWS / — Never before in the history of murder in the U.S., has there been such a buttering over to the minds of Americans by the media.
The only major network that seems to be concerned about the reporting is Fox News. Fair and balanced.
Not calling Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan a terrorist was nothing more than political correctness run amok. So, what do we call him?
Answer: We must call him a psychiatrist.
Now that we have found out, via English News, that he was communicating with al Qaeda, the media is still not giving it the ‘feel’ of true terrorism. It’s like the media has been using psychiatry on us.
This is what political correctness does: takes away the true meaning of something in order to not put select groups in a negative light.
al Qaeda certainly does not give out membership cards or photo ID’s identifying their members. Since Maj. Hasan is suspected of perpetrating mass carnage, which is aligned with the group whom he had communicated with atleast one member, it would be proper for the mainstream media to call him an ‘al Qaeda-aligned’ operative, without the membership card.
Now that Maj. Nadal had been charged with 13 murders, (see NYDN video below)
I am wondering what his defense is going to be? Don’t forget, he is a licensed psychiatrist and represents that profession. Will they go all out to make him look incompetent or insane, with a ton of expert witnesses to back that defense to protect the profession?
