Mississpppi: Illgeal Immigrants From Middle East Nabbed
2008-02-07 03:42:00
We all must wake up to the problem at the border!This from ACTWell, shut my mouth and call me, pixie. A federal Border Patrol sting operation on I-20 nabbed a group of illegal aliens including some suspicious characters from Egypt and the West Bank Palestinian territories. They were caught more than 800 miles from the US Mexican border. We at ACT have been warning you, the Congress and the Administration how porous our borders were to infiltration by Jihadis. Middle East erners can masquerade as Mexicans or Latin Americans including adopting their identification.Witness the comments of this immigration reform advocate from the Magnolia state: Rodney Hunt with the Mississippi Federation for Immigration Reform and Enforcement says people are concerned that terrorists are entering the U.S. across the porous border. "And I think this just shows [that] these people from these special interest countries ... [are not just] ... people coming here taking jobs from Americans, but we have po...

The Trouble With John Mccain... Hes No Conservative
2008-02-01 19:55:00
Here are my issues with John Mccain. Here they are plan and simple.First of all you know anyone that would consider leaving the Republican party and being John Kerrys running mate is NO CONSERVATIVE! (See video below)Also as Michael Reagan point out Mccain acts like he is above everyone else. He comes off as a very mean man.John Mccain has called Supreme Court judge Alito "to conservative". Another mark against him.John Mccain has appointed Juan Juan Hernandez as Hispanic outreach director. Hernadez work for Mexico president Vicente Fox and is notorious for his open boarder views. He also dreams of America, Canada and Mexico becoming one country. Hot Air and Michelle Malkin. have more on this. Here Michelle talks to Glenn Beck about good ole Juan Hernandez. This is reason enough not to pull the lever for Mccain. Mccain claims he has no idea what Hernandezs views are. I find that a little hard to believe. Especially since Herandez has been on Fox and other news networks repeatedly ba...

2008-01-17 05:03:00
MILLIONS of pounds of taxpayers? money is being poured into financing terrorist propaganda, it emerged last night.Some of the cash is even being used to fund school textbooks which teach children in Palestine to worship violence and hate all non-Muslims.The money has also been spent on school books praising the ?insurgents? killing British troops in Iraq, a report revealed.Tories and Jewish leaders expressed outrage at the revelations and called for an urgent investigation into how the Palestinian Authority has used £47.5million in British aid over the past year.Shadow Foreign Office Minister David Lidington said he was ?disturbed? by the findings of the TaxPayers? Alliance report. He added: ?It is imperative that future generations are taught a message of reconciliation and mutual understanding.?I have contacted both the Palestinian representative in London and the United Nations Relief Agency to discuss the issues the TaxPayers?

Former Congressmen Charged With Aiding Jihadist
2008-01-17 04:56:00
All the details from Jihad Watch:"We were the first white American Christians to speak on a Friday afternoon at the Khartoum mosque. That happened, not because we're so good looking, but because we built bridges of respect," said Siljander in November 2007. That comes from a very illuminating article in which he describes his evolution from a born-again Christian who aggressively proselytized among Muslims to a Christian apologist for Islam who sees no contradictions between what the Bible and the Qur'an say about Jesus.Is he still building those bridges?"AP: Former Congressman, U.N. Delegate Indicted as Part of Terrorist Fundraising Ring," from AP: WASHINGTON ? A former congressman and delegate to the United Nations was indicted Wednesday as part of a terrorist fundraising ring that allegedly sent more than $130,000 to an al-Qaida and Taliban supporter who has threatened U.S. and international troops in Afghanistan.

CAIR Hightlights "Anti-Muslim" Rhetoric Of Cadidates On website
2008-01-16 03:27:00
As Robert said in his article Republicans understand jihad better. Indeed and CAIR doesnt like it. So they have started the website http://www.cair2008election.com/ for the elections. On one section of the site they highlight what they call "anti-Muslim " rhetoric of the candidates. Lets take a look at one of the comments they consider "anti-Muslim".CAIR makes it even more clear that they dont want anything done about Islamic terrorism.First they attack Huckabee when he said:"Radical Islamic fascists have declared war on our country and our way of life. They have sworn to annihilate each of us who believe in a free society, all in the name of a perversion of religion and an impersonal god."Clearly Huckabee was not talking about all Muslims with this comment. He was saying that he believes that radicals have perverted Islam. Yet CAIR trys to say this comment was somehow talking about all Muslims. You can read the rest of the comments here.

Republicans Understand Jihad Better
2008-01-16 03:21:00
This is a great article by Robert Spencer over at Human Events. Among the biggest differences between the Republican and the Democratic presidential candidates is their judgments of what began on September 11, 2001, and why. In last Saturday?s ABC News debates, according to Investor?s Business Daily, the Republican candidates ?referred to terrorists and terrorism as ?Islamic,? while also citing radical ?Islam? as the problem, no less than 22 times.?The Republican candidates seem more terrified of labeling the source of terrorism correctly than they are of what terrorists could do. All were anxious to avoid the giving the impression that they thought that jihad terrorism represented a problem within Islam. Mike Huckabee even spoke of ?the radical Islamic faith? and said that the enemy was ?not all Islam, and that?s what?s very important. This isn?t an Islamic problem. This is a jihadist problem. This is an Islamo-fascism problem.?Huckabee didn?t explain how a problem involving jihad,...

Lebanon: Jihadist Target US Embassy

BEIRUT, Lebanon - An explosion targeted a U.S. Embassy vehicle Tuesday in northern Beirut, killing at least three Lebanese and injuring an American bystander and a local embassy employee, U.S. and Lebanese officials said.The blast, which damaged the armored SUV and several other vehicles, took place just ahead of a farewell reception for the American ambassador at a hotel in central Beirut.No Americans were in the car, which was carrying two Lebanese employees of the embassy, State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said in Washington.There were conflicting accounts of the death toll, with the State Department, from information provided by the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, saying four people had been killed and Lebanese authorities saying that only three had died.Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice called the bombing a "terrorist attack.""The United States will, of course, not be deterred in its efforts to help the Lebanese people, to help the democratic forces in Lebanon, to help Lebano...

Video Threat Against Austrian Politician For Her Comments About Muhammad
2008-01-15 22:02:00
An update on this story:A video containing an unspecified threat to Austria was posted on the video-sharing Web site YouTube on Tuesday following anti-Islamic remarks by a hitherto unknown far-right Austrian politician.Police said they were still evaluating the video, but had offered the Graz- based activist, Susanne Winter, personal protection after she denounced Islam's prophet and Muslim men in general as "child molesters".Winter had accepted the added protection following her remarks at the weekend, said a spokesman for the interior ministry, Rudolph Gollia.He said the government's anti-terrorism office was "still in the process of evaluating" the video. Nevertheless, there appeared no reason to increase security in Austria for the time being, Gollia added.The video, lasting four minutes and 48 seconds, contained coverage of a speech Winter made at the traditional New Year's congress of the populist far-right FPOe party on Sunday.Winter is the FPOe's candidate for the upcom...

Australia: Muslim Woman Speaks Out About Wife Beating
2008-01-14 16:11:00
Female Muslim leader Aziza Abdel-Halim, who accused Islamic clerics of hushing up abuse to protect male members of their mosques, is planning a coalition of men and women to raise awareness about domestic violence.Community leaders yesterday warned that victims were being held captives in their own homes by abusive husbands and in some cases reporting to Islamic social services with broken arms, cuts and bruises.Sister Abdel-Halim, a senior member of the Howard Government's Muslim advisory board and president of the Muslim Women's National Network Australia , said the coalition would be formed this year to lobby the Government for assistance."There's wife beating, there's children beating," she said. "Some of them go to the extent of forbidding the woman to leave the house."It is a real problem. And as long as people keep hushing it up and sweeping it under the carpet or whatever, nobody knows about it, nobody is prepared to do anything about it, even the imams." SOURCE

Glenn Beck Is Clueless On Islam
2008-01-14 15:19:00
Glenn is a well intentioned guy I believe. He has done a great job exposing jihadist especially In his special "Exposed: The Extremist Agenda". But he seems to believe that Islam is essentially peaceful and that jihadist have hijacked Islam. I have heard him many times compare violent passages in the Quran to violent passages in the Bible as being equal. There is one big problem with this where are the Christians quoting Bible in order to justify violence? On top of that the Bible doest not contain open ended commands to violence like the Quran. Robert Spencer has pointed out before how Glenn is dead wrong on Islam. In his new book an Inconvenient Book he says I have read the Koran and can tell you that I unequivocally believe that Islam is a religion of peace". All I can say is he must have ignored alot of the Quran in order to say that.More recently last week while discussing the murder of the 2 girls in Texas by their Muslim dad he said it could not be called an honor killing.

Saudi Arabia: Fatwa On Womans Secret Santa Gift Exchange
2008-01-14 14:10:00
Teresa Malof knew she wasn't in Kentucky anymore when a cleric issued a fatwa against her secret Santa gift exchange.Malof proposed the idea at the King Fahad National Guard Hospital, where she has worked for more than a decade. It was supposed to be discreet, but rumors were whispered amid veils and hijabs that the lithe, blond nurse, raised on farmland at the edge of Appalachia, was planning to celebrate a Christian tradition in an Islamic kingdom that forbids the practicing of other religions."Even though I'm a Muslim too, I like to celebrate the holidays and have gift exchanges," said Malof, a convert to Islam who is married to the son of a former Saudi ambassador. "But word got out and the religious people came with a fatwa [or edict] against the Santa party. My husband was having a heart attack. He was worried I'd be in a lot of trouble."For American women married to Saudi men, such is life in this exotic, repressive and often beguiling society where tribal customs and reli...

UK: Mother Tells The Story Of Her Son Joining A Muslim Gang
2008-01-14 13:46:00
This is good. Read it all here:On Wednesday January 4, 2006 a black mother gave evidence at an inquest. At Southwark Coroners Court in southeast London, Ruth Marriott spoke of the last days of her son Adrian Marriott. He had been an accountancy student, but was also a gang member, belonging to the Peel Den Crew. He had been shot five times in the head on June 8, 2004, a few weeks before his 21st birthday. His body was found in parkland off Barrington Road in Brixton.52-year old Ruth Marriott told the inquest: "We heard the shooting. We heard gun fire. The thought did strike me that Adrian could be involved, but it was a fleeting thought. Then we heard from police the following evening what had happened. Adrian was told on the Sunday prior to his death that he would be killed if he did not become a Muslim by the Wednesday, which was the day he died."John Sampson, the coroner, asked if her son had taken the threat seriously. She answered: "I do not think he did." Sampson later declare...

Austria: Politician Talking Negatively About Islam Is Investigated By Autho

I wonder if this same thing would have happened if he would have had some not so kind words for Christianity. Of course it wouldn't have. Every religion can be criticized except Islam . Vienna - Remarks by a right-wing politician denouncing Islam and accusing the Prophet Mohammed of having been a paedophile provoked widespread outrage in Austria on Monday, with authorities investigating whether they constituted hate speech.Susanne Winter, a candidate for the Freedom Party in local elections in Graz in south-eastern Austria, said on Sunday that Mohammed's marriage to a 6-year-old girl would make the prophet a 'paedophile in today's system.'Speaking at a rally, Winter demanded that Islam should be 'thrown back where it came from, beyond the Mediterranean Sea.'Winter later justified her attacks. 'There is widespread child abuse by Muslim men,' she was quoted as saying by the newspaper Oesterreich.'Why can't I say this? That has nothing to do with hate speech. We want neithe...

Presidential Candidates Positions On Islamic Terrorism

He shows that there is basically no mention anywhere on Hillarys website about what she would do about "terrorism" yet alone Islamic terrorism. Steve Emerson has pointed out that Hillary has met on many occasions with terrorist sympathizers. World Net Daily reported that Hillary has accepted campaign money from groups suspected of terrorist connections. They also reported that terrorist in the Middle East would welcome Hillarys presidency.I really have no idea what Hillary plans to do about terrorism at all. All she has said is that she wants to get out of Iraq and give us government health care. I have yet to see anywhere where she says how she will protect our nation from jihadist.Just as this Article points out Democrats ...

CAIRO: Angry Muslims attacked and destroyed shops owned by Coptic Christian s on Sunday in a town in southern Egypt that has been witnessing sectarian tensions, a police official said.The attackers hurled stones and set fire to several shops, smashed the windows of a church and damaged two cars in the early morning hours before the shops in Isna were opened for business, said the police official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media.Police detained 15 people suspected of taking part in the attacks in Isna, located about 560 km south of Cairo, he said.The riots followed reports that two Coptic Christians pulled down the veil of a Muslim woman in a car park on Saturday evening.

India: Women Being Forbidden To Enter Mosques
2007-12-15 05:30:00
CUTTACK: The attempt made by a few Muslim women to offer mass prayer at a masjid here last month drew severe flak from religious heads, who then issued a ?fatwa? (religious edict) to thwart any such attempts in future.The controversy surfaced for the first time in the city on November 23 when some 100 Muslim women, under the banner of the Muslim Women Welfare Organisation (MWWO), gathered at Mangalabag mosque to offer mass prayers. They were, however, denied entry into the mosque by the head priest.Anjuman-Islamia Ahle Sunnat-o-Jammat, the apex body of the community in the city, issued a fatwa to all the 33 mosques in the locality to stop women from praying at public places. Imams of the mosques had already started implementing the fatwa, which was issued in the form of a guideline by an authorised Mufti.?Women should not enter mosques, as the Shariat prohibits them from doing so,? said Wajhul Qamar, the Mufti.?The fatwa entrusts Imams to enlighten Muslim men on the Shariat (code of...

Imam: "Man Killing His Daughter Over Hijab Has Nothing To Do With Islam"

Rubbish..Muslim community leaders say they are saddened by the slaying of a 16-year-old Mississauga, Ont. teenager, but say Islam had nothing to do with it.The religious figures said Islam in no way condones acts of violence, and the death shouldn't reflect badly on their faith."The bottom line is, it's a domestic violence issue,'' Sheik Alaa El-Sayyed, imam at Mississauga's Islamic Society of North America, said at a press conference. "We, as Muslims, are Canadians and we should be dealt with just like everyone else. We have rights, duties ... pros and cons just like all other human beings.''Aqsa Parvez died Monday night from "neck compression," her autopsy showed.Her father, Muhammad Parvez, has been charged with murder.

Imam Musa Plays Victim Still Believes Robert Spencer And Daniel Pipes Are H

Just came across this little gem from Muslim Link Paper about Imam Musa written on December 7. I have exposed Musas teachings several times here and here.Back in February Spencer and Pipes were accused of hacking Musas myspace profile. Which was obviously not true. Apparently none of this means nothing to Musa who still believes Pipes and Spencer have some major hacker tricks up their sleeves. This from Muslim Link Paper:According to Imam Musa, the newly developed Myspace Page received thousands of hits in a matter of six months. "Daniel Pipes and Robert Spencer closed it down because they knew how much positive influence it was having on people."The article even goes on to say that Jihad Watch is controlled by Pipes when in fact Pipes has nothing to even do with Jihad Watch at all.The Jihad Watch is a website that is believed to be controlled by Pipes to propagate negative propaganda against Muslims and Islam....Musa tries to play the victim all throughout this article.
