Christian-Arab Predicts World Islam Takeover, Unless...

Christian-Arab Predicts World Islam Takeover - Unless...

Westerners realize that half-measures don't work with people who are willing to die by the thousands for Allah to achieve their goal? In their eyes the Western World is simply an abomination on earth that has to be wiped out.

You really need to read the whole article.

G*d damn!

Another mosque has terrorist ties

Religion of Pieces, Part 18:

IslamOnline reports that another imam has involvement with terrorism.  This on the heels of the recent Toronto arrests where all suspects had nothing in common... except being Muslim and being from the same mosque. 

The arrest of Daw Meskine, Secretary General of the French Council for Imams, and his son on suspicion of money laundering activities linked to a "terrorist" organization has sent shockwaves across the sizable Muslim minority.

The Toronto mosque still is distributing jihadist literature.

When are we going to go after some mosques as what they are: breeding grounds and headquarters for terrorist activity? 

As Mark Steyn would say, "connect the dots."  Each of these things isn't happening all by itself.

Before you say "first amendment," remember that even that doesn't give you the right to shout "Fire!" in a crowded theatre or claim you're going to kill an elected official.  If a criminal enterprise is run from a religious building (or a series of them), that building is not safe from law enforcement.


UPDATE:  Little Green Footballs has a story about how the bombers who did 7/7 from a London mosque were actually recruited from a New York mosque. 

Muslim sexual predator is heartbroken

Give me a break.  A 20 year old seduced a 16 year old on the internet and tries to convert her to his religion without her parents knowing a thing.  He even gets her to move away to a strange land with him.  Predator?  Sexual deviant?

Nope.

The media are using words like "heartbroken" to describe him.

Why?  Because he is not Christian.  This particular offender is a Palestinian Muslim.

Palestinian Anguishes Over MySpace Romance

Abdullah Jimzawi, a 20-year-old high school dropout who lives with his parents in Jericho, said he and Katherine Lester had planned to marry and she intended to convert to Islam.

Religion of Peace

Cartoons can make the Religion of Peace go bananas:

Denmark-based Arla Foods, which has been the target of a widespread boycott in the Middle East, reported that two of its employees in Saudi Arabia were beaten by angry customers.

Religion of Peace ...and tolerance

In Gaza, masked gunmen briefly took over an office used by the EU, demanding an apology from Denmark and Norway.

What caused this?

The 12 drawings — published in a Danish paper in September and in a Norwegian paper this month — included an image of the prophet wearing a turban shaped as a bomb with a burning fuse. Islamic tradition bars any depiction of the prophet, even respectful ones, out of concern that such images could lead to idolatry.

Lesson:  do not criticize our Islam or its prophets or we'll beat you or otherwise silence you while we tell you how your culture and civilization is one step above that of pigs.

Christians go to Bethlehem

From an AP story: Pilgrims bring Christmas hope to walled Bethlehem - Yahoo! News.

Until this year, Christmas celebrations had been muted because of the Palestinian uprising which began in 2000. But a 10-month-old ceasefire has encouraged a big increase in the number of pilgrims and tourists to the town where Christians believe Jesus was born.

Ummmmm... whether you believe Jesus Christ was the son of God or just a "philosopher" who impacted the world, it is fact that he lived and was born in Bethlehem.  For the AP to bring even that into question shows their animosity towards Christian religion.

UPDATE: AP gets it right:

About 30,000 pilgrims converged on the birthplace of Jesus for Christmas celebrations this year...

...while Reuters makes the same error.

Calls for peace resonated in Bethlehem on Sunday as a lull in violence spurred the biggest influx of Christmas pilgrims for years to the town where Christians believe Jesus was born

Where do non-Christians believe Jesus was born?

 

From Worship to Warship

Given recent news that Security Tightened as Patient Pilgrims View Pope, it seems ironic to me that the whole papal Vatican experience has gone from worship to warship. 

Even more ironic is that Pope John Paul II was against the so-called War on Terror.  If only we could understand them, they would not try to blow us up.  Can anyone say with a straight face that if we responded to the Sept 11 attacks on the United States with flowers and hugs that the Pope's funeral this week would not be the big fat juicy target it is? 

Please. 

This is just wrong

Symbols and writing

Peggy Noonan writes in today's WSJ about how liberals look to use symbols as well as the Republicans.  Rather than just writing, they seek to use symbols as some dark art to manipulate minds and persuade.   After relating a story about how an expert on speech-writing asked a younger Peggy for advice on how the manipulative Reagan made people think about the flag without uttering the word, Peggy writes:

I thought about the conversation for years. My first thought was, You can get so well educated in America that your thoughts become detached from common sense. You can get so complicated in your thinking that the obvious isn't real to you anymore. I wondered if she didn't honestly think that it couldn't just be writing. She thought it was some kind of higher, dark and secret magic. She thought there were secret codes and symbols placed in speeches to communicate secret messages and elicit certain reactions.

How telling.   Rather than just writing about what they believe, the Democrats are looking for the winning phrase, the subtly dark image, the next manipulative symbol... or slogan.   It strikes us as "phony" and the Democrats lose.

Peace on Earth

In response to an enlightening peace-nik story which might have been a satire:

This is a GREAT column and mock news story!

Yep. Those darn war hawk Republicans hate peace. Why won't they just leave peace-loving, well-intentioned Saddam Hussein alone?

Of course, if I'm wrong about Saddam's peaceful intentions and he does the absolutely unthinkable -- attacks us -- I can just say "oops! wish we did something about it beforehand!" Oh well. Better to be peaceful and wrong than "beat war drums" and safe.

There should never be war-like statements, preparations or attacks done in the same month as the birthday of Christ, the Prince of Peace. To do otherwise besmirches Jesus, and the message of peace he preached while he was on this Earth for his 33 short years. He loved all his neighbors. Darn that Judas and others who turned on Our Saviour and didn't have that same peaceful outlook. Damn, must hurt to have spikes driven into your palms.

(I wonder if death by small pox is painful?)

So, while we should have a annual month-long holiday season of Washington talk about love and harmony, coupled with unilateral military dismantlement, I hope that other countries respect our yearly military self-neutering. I know! In the spirit of reaching out and "inclusivess" (that's always good, right?), we can call this yearly peace-fest "Rum-idan," which would be in honor of our wrong-headed Secretary of Defense. Also, the Islamic radicals who wish us all dead will take this gesture (and name!) as a peaceful olive branch and a step towards their goal of One World, One Religion. Oh sure, I may be naive, considering that they don't share in my well-intentioned love and tolerance for them, nor do they believe in Christ our Lord, and consider us infidels that must all die sudden and horrific deaths.

Oh well. If I'm wrong, at least we'll all be at the Lord's side, sooner than we had earlier thought, celebrating his birthday in the Kingdom of Eternal Peace.
