    There is good news — for women in the military — one sexual predator is going to jail.

    Did any one see this?

    Media ignore alleged assassination attempt on Hillary Clinton in Israel

    http://www.examiner.com/article/media-ignore-alleged-assassination-attempt-on-hillary-clinton-israel

    … news outlets in India as well as one in Iran report an alleged assassination attempt on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during her recent visit in Israel. A Google search as well as Google News search on this story finds no American media outlets reporting the story.

    ZeeNews.com, an Indian news web site, reports, “Israel Radio broke the story earlier in the week, which was confirmed by sources inside Israel, but never mentioned again. According to World Mathaba, the purported attack on Hillary was related to the current political upheaval in Israel — the aim being kill Hillary, blame Iran and take the focus off the domestic political meltdown in Tel Aviv.”

    Iran’s Al-Alam News reported, “Israeli sources reported that the procession of Hillary Clinton Secretary of State was shot on yesterday, while passing through on the road to Jerusalem – Tel Aviv.”

    News Track India also reported the story, “According to sources, the attack on Clinton’s convoy, a minimum of three to five vehicles, traveling from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, follows the story earlier of an attack on a bus loaded with Israeli tourists that exploded in Bulgaria, which killed six persons. According to World Mathaba, both the Bulgaria attack and the attempted assassination of Clinton was a Mossad “false flag” operation.

    Nothing has yet to be reported on this in American media as of 5:21 PM Eastern Time.

      I read a whole lot of International headlines and sources — and this is the first mention of this story.

      The Bulgarian attack sounded fishy to me.

      I almost doubt nothing when it comes to our great media. They are an utter waste.

      Neither the Guardian nor the BBC have any story on this.

    A new Survey USA poll of Florida shows Obama leading Romney 48%-43%. Registered Republicans are significantly overrepresented in the poll. Rmoney better hope that these numbers are badly off, because a look at the electoral college calculator shows that he has to win Florida.

    If Rmoney doesn’t win Florida, Obama can lose the following states he won in ’08 and still win 271 electoral votes: New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Virginia and North Carolina. Without Florida, Rmoney has to run the table to win.

    Police are looking for another person of interest in the Aurora shootings.
