"For there are certain men crept in unawares,who were before of old ordained to this condemnation,ungodly men,turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness,and denying the only Lord God,and our Lord Jesus Christ.
I will therefore put you in remembrance...
These...walking after their own lusts;and their mouth speaketh great swelling words,having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.
But beloved,remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time,who should walk after their own lusts.
These be they who separate themselves,sensual,having not the Spirit."
JUDE 4-5;16-19

FRANKESTEIN SCIENCE WATCH:Tax-Funded Research Implants Aborted Fetal Tissue in Mice

SCID-who?
The SCID-hu mouse originally was created in 1988 by Stanford researcher J. Michael McCune. SCID stands for "severe combined immuno-deficiency." "Hu" stands for human. The mouse itself is not considered to be controversial."It has been something of a godsend for modern-day research," said Dr. Joseph Bryant, director of animal research at the University of Maryland's Institute of Human Virology."It was discovered several years ago that this mouse, which is kind of like the bubble boy in that it has no real immune system, can't reject tissue, even from a human," Bryant said. "It is used in transplant medicine and cancer research, research on diabetes, for studying HIV, the effects of some drugs, Alzheimer's - you name it.."Thus far, its use has galvanized AIDS research, according to Dr. Dan Littman, a top SCID-hu researcher at New York University's Medical Center."I think in terms of testing for various drugs that may be effective in HIV infection in an animal model, SCID-hu may be as good an animal model as one can get," Littman told Cybercast News Service. "I think it has been successful for that." The mice are being utilized in so many areas of research that an online search of the scientific literature would generate a vast number of hits. As Bryant put it, "it would take you to the end of the year just to read all of them."Indeed, though the National Institutes of Health (NIH) would not comment on that research, Cybercast News Service has found records indicating that the federal government is funding hundreds of SCID-hu studies, likely to the tune of millions of dollars. It's not known exactly how much fetal tissue is being used. Attempts over a period of weeks to obtain details from the NIH have thus far proved unsuccessful. But article after article in prominent scientific journals such as Blood and The Journal of Virology, as well as The Proceedings of the National Academies of Science describe the transplantation of "fetal human tissue" in myriad SCID-hu experiments. For instance, a 2005 study published in Blood said, "Mice were surgically implanted with human bone chips of fetal femur or tibia from 19- to 23-week gestation human abortuses ...." Another study, published in 2000 in The Journal of Virology said: "The mice were implanted with 1-mm3 pieces of human fetal thymus and liver when they were 6- to 8-weeks-old. Tissue at 16- to 24-weeks of gestational age was obtained...." Yet another, from 2001 in The Proceedings of the National Academies of Science said, "Human fetal skin tissue (18 to 23 weeks gestational age) was purchased ... in accordance with all local, state, and federal guidelines."

"For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened,and have tasted of the heavenly gift,and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost.
And have tasted the good word of God,and the powers of the world to come,
If they shall fall away,to renew them again unto repentance;seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh,and put him to an open shame."

FP: Steve Schippert, Thomas Joscelyn, Michael A. Ledeen, Rohan Gunaratna, Lt. Gen. Tom McInerney and Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa, welcome to Frontpage Symposium.
Rohan Gunaratna, let’s begin with you. The evidence suggests that negotiations with Tehran have failed and that there is no alternative but for the U.S. to launch a pre-emptive strike on Iran's nuclear facilities.Do you concur?
Gunaratna: Attacking Iran will be much more devastating for the United States than attacking Iraq.
Iran will retaliate with strikes against US targets both in the US mainland and overseas. Furthermore, Iran is next door to Afghanistan and to Iraq, the two most important theatres of conflict for the US and the West.
Iran is holding over 100 Al Qaeda leaders, members and their families in detention. This includes Saif al Adel, head of security and intelligence, Abu Hafs al Mauritani, head of the fatwa committee, Abdel Aziz al Masri, head of WMD committee, and Abu Mohamed al Masri, the head of the training committee and other prominent and capable leaders. This includes Saad bin Laden, the son of Osama and two of his wives and other significant figures very close to the Al Qaeda leader such as Abu Khyer al Masri, Al Qaeda's key negotiator with Iran. The quality of Al Qaeda members in detention in Iran is much higher than those operating in FATA (Federally Administered Tribal Areas that run along the Pakistan-Afghan border). Iran is likely to release these leaders, members and family members with arms, explosives and finances to strike the US and its Allies.
The US must refrain from over-reacting. There are many methods to subdue an adversary without attacking him.
FP: Thank you Dr. Gunaratna. I just want to follow up with you for a moment and hopefully you can crystallize a few things.

Scholars such as Thomas Joscelyn have documented that Iran has been waging war on us for a long time and part of this war has involved Iran’s cooperation with Al Qaeda. Why is Iran holding Al Qaeda leaders in detention when Al Qaeda serves the interests of Iran in terms of doing damage to the “Great Satan”? And if Iran could hurt the U.S. by exploiting these leaders and releasing them etc., surely it would have already done so, no? If not, why hasn't it done so?
More than anything else, what sense does it make for us not to provoke a country that has long ago declared war on us and that is hurting us, and is also planning to hurt us more – and God knows in what horrible way?
Gunaratna: Yes, Iran has been working against the U.S.
However, since the rise of the Taliban in 1996, Iran has not sponsored Al Qaeda and its associated groups. Iran has sponsored Shia groups - Lebanese Hezbollah globally and Jaysh-e- Madhi in Iraq - and the Sunni Palestianian groups - Hamas, PIJ, Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade.
Iranian intelligence services - MOIS and IRGC - are anti-US.
We have seen no evidence of direct Iranian sponsorship of Al Qaeda or its associated groups. Iran is fully aware of the dangers of supporting Al Qaeda and Al Qaeda in Iraq. Both these groups may one day attack Iran and its interests.

Cardinal's former aide savages Vatican

In the article, Wall accuses the Church of [“using the civil law to punish the sinner because of his or her sin. ]There seems to be nothing in Christ’s teaching to justify such an approach. Indeed, the whole of Jesus’ life, and even more so his death, point firmly in the other direction.” According to Wall-formerly Tony Blair’s chief adviser on Europe-the Vatican is wrong to oppose gay adoption and IVF; it is “using, or abusing, its own moral absolutism to deny to people whose way of life it stigmatises the civil rights that a more generous state recognises as basic to their status as citizens”.[[[The Church portrays itself as the victims of aggressive secularism, but is actually heading towards an aggressive fundamentalism that is further from the Christian ideal than secular ideology.]]]Intriguingly, Wall also attacks the Vatican for threatening to excommunicate John Kerry because he “chose to exercise his own conscience and political judgment on the issue of abortion” (ie, voted for late-term abortions).Think about that, and bear in mind that Cardinal Murphy-O’Connor is getting ready to receive into the Church another politician who “exercised his conscience” on abortion.You may or may not agree with some of Wall’s points; but what we have here is a comprehensive trashing of the Vatican of Benedict XVI by the man who, until recently, was the English cardinal’s senior adviser.Not that I’m having a go at His Eminence, mind. No doubt, even now, the Cardinal is composing a statement distancing himself from these statements. I’ll keep you informed.

Hanukkah:Bringing More Light into the World

Then, it’s time for supper, with popular Hanukkah foods including anything fried in oil, especially potato fritters. Like other Jewish holidays, children’s activities are teaching tools. Spinning a top (dreidl) is a favorite. Each side is marked with a Hebrew letter standing for the words “a great miracle happened there” (or “here” if you’re playing in Israel) and trying to guess which letter will come up.In Israel, part of the Hanukkah celebrations involve visits to the “Land of the Maccabees” in the foothills of Judah around the modern city of Modi’in, near the ancestral home of Judah’s family.

PESTILENCE WATCH:'Investigate klebsiella more'

Alleviate overcrowding
"We can confirm that there have been 7 confirmed cases and two unconfirmed cases of klebsiella at this hospital."The hospital, situated in Durban's Umlazi area, serves an estimated 1.6 million people and 1 200 babies are delivered at the hospital every month.She said 26 beds at Durban's Wentworth Hospital would be used to accommodate some babies in a bid to alleviate overcrowding at the hospital.Meanwhile journalists taken on a tour of the hospital, as they waited more than three hours to speak to the minister, were on Wednesday prevented from interviewing a mother whose baby had contracted the deadly bacteria.The journalists who had been invited to attend a midday media briefing by Tshabalala-Msimang were led on a tour of the hospital by a health department official.When the group reached the hospital's neonatal intensive care unit, journalists were stopped by hospital staff from interviewing a mother, whose baby is recuperating from klebsiella.
Task team had identified the source
KwaZulu-Natal health spokesperson Leon Mbangwa on Tuesday said that an investigation into the "possible outbreak" of klebsiella was ordered on November 21 by the provincial health department.He said that although the investigation had not been completed, a task team led by Professor Prashini Moodley of the Nelson Mandela School of Medicine identified the source of the infection as being "contaminated intravenous medication"."The infectious source has been removed and the surviving babies are now doing well," he said.
