A Jordanian member of parliament pulled a gun on a man who was criticizing him during a live debate on Jordanian TV Thursday.
According to the Times of Israel, the lawmaker, Mohammed Shawabka, and his opponent, political activist Mansour Sayf al-Din Murad, were discussing Jordanian politics and the uprising in Syria when accusations and insults started to fly:
Shawabka claimed Murad was in the pay of the Syrian regime. Murad countered that Shawabka worked for the Israeli Mossad intelligence agency. “You’re a Mossad agent,” he said. “You’re a big crook,” came the response.
The MP stood up and began screaming and pointing at the activist, who was sitting opposite him, while the host of the program, Mohammed Habashneh, seated in the center, desperately urged his guests to “calm down.”
Instead, the MP sat back down, bent over and took off his right shoe, and threw it at the activist, who ducked behind his desk, knocking it over.
Then the MP pulled a gun — a silver pistol — out of his waistband and briefly brandished it toward the activist, who walked toward him. The MP kept holding the gun, but was no longer pointing it at his critic.
The two men struggled, with the parliamentarian again careful now not to point the gun at his adversary, while the panicked host circumnavigated the strewn furniture to try to break up the fight.

Report Post »I think what the peace loving, lover of all man kind Muslim took off his ankle was another pistol and he had one on his hip. I guess thats what a well dressed peace loving, lover of all man kind Muslim wears. Muslims leading the way to world peace, once all non- Muslim are dead or slaves. What a wonderful day that will be for White Liberal Trash. What they haven’t figured out they well be the first ones to get it in the neck.

Posted on July 8, 2012 at 2:42amHitler did want to provide free health care..President Hitler signed a shockingly similar bill with similar tactics used to get it signed….threats, harassment, false promises, intimidation, invented crises. Gee….did Obama take lessons from Hitler? He certainly proudly taught ACORN workers from Saul Alinsky’s book, Rules for Radicals, so why not go back to the original power crazed, crowd manipulator and evil visionary? On that fateful day, March 23rd Hitler signed into law the National Law for Removing the Distress of the People bill. It was also called Hitler’s Enabling Act.

Posted on July 8, 2012 at 10:11amHealth Care Access means – money, taxes, and rationing.
Health care is not health. Health would mean we would have an unhampered market and we would be free to solve each other’s needs.
Health Care by Obama means we are telling insurance companies they are not permitted to enter the market place and compete freely with one another, driving down prices while doing so.
Health Care by Obama means we have a tyrannical leftist who insists that government theft is actually benevolence.
Problem: People can’t afford health insurance
Crap for brains solution: Force people to buy health insurance
Problem solved. In Idiotic fashion.

Posted on July 7, 2012 at 3:56pmWhy are you surprised? These Islamists take the law into their own hands all the time, and they get away with it. These are no different from the so-called “modesty police” in Egypt who just murdered a young Egyptian man there because they thought he was too close to his girlfriend.
The Islamists have been getting away with this sort of terror for 1400 years now, thanks to the self-professed prophet of doom Mohammed who waged jihad every six weeks until he died. And the cowardly politicians in the West are more than happy to roll over and kneel down on their bloodied mats of slavery. And their globalist institutions like the UN-EU-NATO are downright collaborating with them.
Can you say cowards? And criminals?
As far as these two are concerned. I‘m sure the one will murder the other by proxy and the criminal and cowardly MSM won’t ever report it. I wonder what‘s going on in Hillary Clinton’s Libya now? I wonder how many women are being mass-raped there with impunitiy?
Oh, I’m sure that Libya and Egypt are models of tolerance. You know? The new Egyptian and Libyan Spring where one is taken over by the Muslim Brotherhood and the other by the al Qaeda.
Islam’s no-tolerance for all the world to see. The cockroaches, when pushed, will soon be in full view for the cowards in the West to see. History has shown that plunder, mass-murder and occupation is surely on the horizon. And even then the cowards will put their heads willingly on the chopping block of Isl

We need to stay the hell out of these places unless they attack, threaten, present a threat to our security, then and only then we go over take out the powers to be with any means necessary and then get out. By the way, I still don’t know why we feel an obligation to rebuild a nation that harbored international terrorists knowingly. If we have to destroy a nation to protect ourselves, so be it, however, they did it to themselves, we wouldn’t have had to do it if they had left us alone. Why should these nations leave us alone if they know that when we are done we will rebuild their Country to be even better. It’s like tracking down a serial killer just to pay him for more ammo.
