News Roundup for the Week

Busy week in the news, and certainly not enough time to comment on all of it, so here's a short collection of thoughts. Enjoy.

In the nothing to see here category:
* Eric Holder: No Plans at DOJ to Investigate Secret Waiting Lists and Veteran Deaths at VA Hospitals
American deaths worth investigating? Really, why would Holder start now? The FBI's Fast and Furious program causing the death of border patrol agent Brian Terry (and countless Mexicans) didn't bring any accountability to the Department of Justice - no one was fired for this terrible program.

* Feds released hundreds of immigrant murderers, drunk drivers, sex-crimes convicts

In 2013, the Federal government released thousands of illegal immigrants:
immigrants whom U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement released from custody last year there were 116 with convictions for homicide, 43 for negligent manslaughter, 14 for voluntary manslaughter and one with a conviction classified by ICE as “homicide-willful kill-public official-gun.”...
15,635 for drunken driving, 9,187 for what ICE labeled “dangerous drugs,” 2,691 for assault, 1,724 for weapons offenses and 303 for “flight escape” — a category that would seem to make them bad candidates for release.

* Judicial Watch: New Documents Show IRS HQ Control of Tea Party Targeting 

Random interesting history: 
* Christopher Columbus's ship Santa Maria may have been found
* Arlington marks 150th anniversary of first burial
* Files Uncovered: Nazi Veterans Created Illegal Army

Last, but not least - what's new?
Hamas TV: Giant, cuddly bee teaches children to "shoot Jews" and "smash them"
Yup, these are the guys that the "moderate" Palestinian Authority would rather reconcile with rather than making peace with Israel. It's really nothing new - we know that no matter if they are the "moderates" or the "extremists", they both hate the Jews - and are willing to teach their children to commit suicide in order to murder us.
And from the "moderates" - they have their own creative videos involving children.

My take on these "peace makers": The "Moderate" vs. "Extreme" Terrorists
