The New York Times reports on the suspected leader of the Benghazi attack:

Mr. Abu Khattala was a member of the Islamist opposition under Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi and was imprisoned in his notorious Abu Salim prison. Unlike most of the other Islamist prisoners, however, Mr. Abu Khattala never renounced violence as a means for seeking political change. He was let out of prison only last year, along with a batch of other political prisoners released in a futile bid by the government to appease the nascent uprising.

The potential sackers of any future US embassy in Syria* have made what they must see as a major concession to their Western benefactors:

Powerful Syrian Islamist brigades, frustrated at the growing divisions among rebels…formed the “Front to Liberate Syria”
(…)
Originally the group was called the Islamic Front to Liberate Syria. Brigade leaders voted to drop the word ‘Islamic’ but Islam remains a central element…

*Who’s the poor sap in line for that job?
It’s after the election: Obama has barely survived a bruising and emotionally draining campaign. He addresses a dishevelled man in the Oval Office; Valerie Jarret is sitting in shadows behind him.
“So, like I said, Bob, forget about it. Lots of mistakes were made in this campaign. I almost made one myself. No shit! I’ll tell you about it some time. Anyhow, what’s a swing state or two? That was a joke. But I’m going to need my best man out there in SIR [Syrian Islamic Republic], at least until things settle down a bit…”

…the gradual erosion of rights:

“We, as Americans, have to put limits and borders [on] freedom of speech,” Qatanani, leader of the Islamic Center of Passaic County (ICPC), told TheBlaze. He explained that while Americans may “have the freedom” to speak their mind, ultimately, they “have no right to [talk about Muslim] holy issues“ as it will incite ”hatred or war among people.”

The erasure of our own physical borders by our transnational elite has to eventually mean new legal borders here. This is necessitated by two things that need not be connected, but are hard-wired into the minds of the new men and women of our elite, the necessity of war and of open borders.

Our wars produce outrage; we import it via immigration, and–this is less appreciated–inculcate it in previously peaceful populations, like American Muslims. They are encouraged by Marxian anti-white convention to view themselves as a distinct ethnicity within America–after 9/11 this crystallized into the budding movement we see now. American Muslims are reasonably alarmed at the harsh vulgarity of mainstream American culture, its unyielding assault on tradition and religion as such. There is an invitation to withdraw (you and I haven’t that luxury) or, if you’re the ambitious type, to challenge it. The reality of Oil and Israel mean we cannot disengage from the Middle East, under any circumstances. It will not be allowed. This doesn’t get better.

In the latest case of Muslim outrage it’s worth noting an Egyptian Coptic Christian brought his beef with Islam to America and from here wages his war on it. America not only isn’t “behind” the video as millions of idiot Muslims think (albeit because the Administration and their media allies used it to cover their grotesque failure in Libya), “America” isn’t even involved in the exchange. But like water finding its level, we will have to adapt, not because Islam is violently intolerant, or because they hate us for our crimes, but because both are simultaneously true.

Life is defined by that irregular, indefinable hard boundary–like a rocky wall hidden in the mist—that is our individual nature, that is to say our limitations, against which our ambitions, and pride, are repeatedly dashed unto the end of our days.
