Growltiger thought she would take a well-deserved break during August, but august cats can never really abandon rodent control, so she has been forced out of vacation mode temporarily.

According to a report in the Wall Street Journal, the Obama administration packed up $400 million US dollars, flew the dough in an unmarked private jet to Switzerland where the greenbacks were unloaded and converted into Swiss francs which then were turned over to Iran. If a Mexican drug dealer did this, it would be known as money laundering, but not in a country that allows Secretaries of State to blithely ship state secrets off into cyberspace and then lie about it to everyone but the FBI. (Apparently the FBI did not put her under oath so as to prevent her committing the felony of lying to the FBI).

So, it was just a coincidence this transfer of funds wasn't done electronically as most banking operations are these days, but rather on wooden pallets, and also it is a coincidence that the pallet payment occurred the same day Iran released four U.S. hostages.

Buying back Americans was news, but not like Republcian presidential candidate Donald Trump's apparent insensitivity to the Gold Star family of Khazir Khan, a Pakistani-born attorney, whose son was killed in Iraq by a Muslim suicide bomber.

Little mention was made about Mr. Khan's having attacked Donald Trump at the Democrat convention and that, unless he has had a change of heart, is a supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood and advocates Sharia Law which is contradictory to the Constitution of the United States, a document Mr. Khan carries around in his pocket in case he needs to wave it at a camera (1, 2).

If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a noise?  Not if there are no tympanic membranes (ear drums) to transmit the sound waves into the inner ear, and the tympanic membranes which we call the media selectively transmit.

As an example, another Gold Star parent spoke at the Republican convention, but Mr. Khan has received 40 times more media coverage than Ms. Smith whose son died at Benghazi, Libya (3). National Review (4) has a video of Hillary Clinton calling Ms. Smith a liar, but this has received little coverage in the majority media lest their public get a bad impression of their chosen candidate.

Meanwhile over in London, a Norwegian attacked and killed an American and stabbed five others with a knife (5). The Norwegian's name has not been released, but it's a pretty safe it isn't Lars Amundsen or Sven Ericcsen.

The BBC reported this was "spontaneous" since most of us walk around the streets with a knife just in case we suffer an attack of spontaneity. The victims were selected "at random". Those "randomly selected", however, were American, British, Israeli and Australian. A few paragraphs into the report, the BBC mentions casually that the Norwegian national was of Somali origin, but, that there is no evidence of "radicalisation" and the evidence was "increasingly pointing to the attack being triggered by mental health issues". The Muslim mayor of London urged Londoners to keep calm (6) as ISIS celebrates these "mental health issues" (7).

Meanwhile, in Turkey, a gay Syrian refugee was found beheaded (8) while burqa-clad females attacked a pregnant woman for wearing revealing clothes (9).  

Of course, the big news of the day is that Donald Trump asked a mother to remove her crying baby from his rally. You can't make up this stuff, folks.
