LtCol (Ret) USMC Freddie Blish / Raheel Raza - The Tami Jackson Show

Published: Nov. 8, 2017, 4:02 a.m.

In the first 1/2 hour I will be speaking with Retired Marine Officer Freddie Blish.\n\nUSMC LtCol (Ret) Freddie Blish joined the Marine Corps on 25 Feb 1983.\n\nBlish served in the 8th Engineer Support Battalion, Marine Corps Security Force Company Panama (Operation Promote Liberty), 1st Combat Engineer Battalion, 1st Marine Division (JTF-6 Counter Drug), Marine Forces Pacific/Korea/Central Command (Operation Desert Thunder), Headquarters Marine Corps, and MWSG-37 3rd MAW (Operation Iraqi Freedom I & II).\n\nFreddie is the President/Owner of\xa0Robar Companies, Inc.\xae and instructor at Lt. Col. Jeff Cooper's Gunsite Academy.\n\nFreddie and I will\xa0talk about ROBAR Companies commemorative RC-50, which debuts on or about this Friday -- Veteran's Day!\n\nSome info you'll want to know:\n\nThe RC-50 features a precision CNC-machined customized bolt-action system of operation and feeds from a 5-round detachable magazine inserted into the underside of the receiver in the usual way. The gun weighs a hefty-yet-manageable 25lbs and sports an overall length of 36 inches with a barrel measuring some 29 inches long (a 24-inch barrel is also available).\n\nLike others in its field the RC-50 is chambered to fire the massive and powerful .50 BMG which gives it good penetration against light armor and fortified structures. Such weapons are useful in disabling armored vehicles by targeting specific components in their design \u2013 sensors, track links, driver positions, etc\u2026.\n\nEffective range of the RC-50 system reaches out to 2,000 meters and sighting is primarily through a 16X telescopic scope. The receiver is designed to accept a plethora of after-market scope types to suit mission and operator requirements.\n\nAll you firearms aficionados out there, get a front row seat and pay attention -- this rifle is something special and will be a very, desirable addition to anyone's long gun collection.\n\n************************\n\nIn the second 1/2 hour I will be talking to\xa0Raheel Raza.\n\nRaheel Raza is a member of the Clarion Project Advisory Board. She is president of The Council for Muslims Facing Tomorrow, a founding member of The Muslim Reform Movement, author of the book Their Jihad \u2013 Not My Jihad, award winning journalist, public speaker, and advocate for human rights.\n\nRaheel speaks at places of worship, the private sector, school boards and government institutions. She has been invited to the Parliaments of Sweden, UK, Israel and to Capitol Hill in Washington DC.\n\nIn her pursuit for human rights, Raheel is accredited with United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva through The Centre for Inquiry (CFI). She has received many awards for her work on women\u2019s equality including the City of Toronto\u2019s Constance Hamilton award.\n\nRaheel is the voice of Clarion\u2019s short film "By The Numbers" and stars in "Honor Diaries."\n\nRaheel and I will talk about her article,\xa0ISIS Halloween Terror \u2013 Ordered Last Thanksgiving?\n\nAs she writes at The Daily Caller:\n\nOnce again evil has struck New York City. ISIS terrorist Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov used a rented truck to run down and kill 8 innocent people and injure at least a dozen more. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims and those injured.\n\nBut we cannot say we did not see this coming.\n\nLast year, ISIS urged its followers in the West to use rented trucks to murder innocent people in New York, singling out the Macy\u2019s Thanksgiving Day Parade as an \u201can excellent target.\u201d\n\nLess than a year later, a terrorist rented a truck and murdered people in the name of ISIS, mere steps from the World Trade Center.\n\nThe terrorist shouted \u201cAllahu Akbar,\u201d announcing to all who would listen the reason for his cowardly terrorist attack. He did it in the name of Jihad. He did it in the name of ISIS. He did it in the name of my religion. He is a soldier in the ongoing \u201cwar on the West\u201d declared by radical Islamists.\n\nBut he is not a \u201clone wolf,\u201d as many in the media have described him. There is no such thing as a \u201clone wolf.\u201d He did not sit alone in the woods and then \u2013 one day, out of the blue \u2013 come up with the idea of renting a truck and running down innocent people while shouting \u201cAllahu Akbar.\u201d That was an instruction given by ISIS last year.\n\nYou won't want to miss this interesting conversation with Raheel -- she knows what she's talking about when it comes to radical Islamic Terrorism and we would do well to listen intently!\n\nFollow ROBAR Companies on Twitter\xa0at\xa0@ROBARguns,\xa0Raheel Raza at\xa0@Raheelraza, and me at @tamij AND tweet your questions/comments during the show using hashtag #tjrs.\n\n*Sponsored by Rentacomputer, your premier\xa0source for Sound System rentals , by ROBAR\xae Guns, a True Custom firearms and firearms finishing shop\xa0located in Phoenix, AZ, and found online at RobarGuns.com, and by Dispatches, your site for the BEST conservative resources to fight and win the information war.
