Keep Up The Pressure

BACK IN January, we published a few articles about Geert Wilders. The following is a special update from SITAmnesty:

The international SITA action in support of Geert Wilders began on January 21st, 2009 and to date (March 20th, 2009) is a success. 3500 visits have been registered to the site http://sitamnesty.wordpress.com/ for the 4 proposed actions. That totals hundreds of letters (as reported by the Dutch newspaper, De Telegraaf) which have arrived at the Court in Amsterdam, at the offices of lawyer Spong and at the Dutch Justice Ministry. These letters resulted in the visit of the Ministry for Justice to the SITAmnesty — proof that they are disturbed by our SITA mailings.

A drop of water which falls regularly on the same spot manages to penetrate the hardest rock.

Our SITA mailings must continue to sow doubt and uncertainty among the dhimmis of Amsterdam. Now it is necessary to break down their morale by maintaining a regular flow of letters; not necessarily in great quantities but on a regular basis because they must not be allowed to believe that mailings will decrease and eventually stop and that people will end up forgetting Geert Wilders. Let them be surprised that the flow continues!

So we invite all those who took an active part in this action to reactivate it. Bear in mind that there are always new readers who do not know about SITAactions and some who don't even know about Geert Wilders’ predicament.


What Should We Do Now?

1. As soon as you come across an article about Geert Wilders, choose from this page: http://planete-sita.bravehost.com/soutienwilders.html the message you want to use and copy and paste it in the comments section of the article you came across (about Geert Wilders). Let's get this information more widely available.

2. Send letters, SITAmnesty-style, directly to key people in the Netherlands. Get names and addresses and read more about exactly what to do here.

3. For the owners of sites or blogs who have already relayed our action they can act according to their own wishes. Either they can republish their first article, or rewrite a new one, or simply choose from this page: http://planete-sita.bravehost.com/soutienwilders.html the message urging action on their web sites.

Reminder: The two actions in support to Geert Wilders are available at these pages:

The Value of an Open Mind

THE CHEERLEADERS STRIKE AGAIN!

http://www.progressiveislam.info/showDiary.do?diaryId=1846

Check out what mayhem they have created while it's still up. They posted an article on striking the heart of jihad onto a page of ProgressiveIslam.info.

In fact, if you go to the home page, you will see down on the left sidebar "PROGRESSIVEISLAM.INFO NOW BELONGS TO THE CHEERLEADERS:"

http://www.progressiveislam.info/

If you don't remember the Cheerleaders, I wrote about them before:

International Women's Day (March 8th)

TODAY, March 8, 2009, is International Women's Day, an appropriate time to bring up the most plentiful source of women's rights violations around the world: Shari'a law. The human rights organization, REAL, is holding a rally today in Washington, D.C. to address the challenge of the women oppressed and killed, even in America, because of Shari'a law.

Something can and should be done about it. And you can help. Here's more about the event from REAL's web site (as well as a petition you can sign):

We will be holding a Washington DC rally on March 8 at the front of the Capitol Reflecting Pool beginning at 1 PM to address the global challenge of women oppressed and killed in the name of Islamic supremacism. We will demand that our legislators recognize the threat to women around the world by this supremacist ideology. (Note that Daylight Savings Time begins on Sunday, and the rally is at 1 pm DST.)

Sign the Save Women Now Petition demanding that U.S. government and United Nations representatives recognize the ideology of Islamic supremacism as a source of oppression and violence to women in America and around the world.

Sunday, March 8 is International Women’s Day, and we seek to make a public statement that calls for our representatives and world bodies to acknowledge that Islamic supremacism threatens women today and that its leaders and supporters use Islamic supremacism as an institution to legitimize violence and hate against women. We call for national and international action against Islamic supremacism to Save Women Now, and defy those who believe that mutilation, oppression, and murder of women is an Islamic supremacist “right.”

For directions to the March 8 Save Women Now rally, see the map of the Capitol compound and nearby Washington DC metro stops. Federal Center SW and Capitol South subway stops are the closest to the Capitol reflecting pool, but the Smithsonian subway stop walking along the national mall is also a pleasant stroll. This weblink provides a 360 degree view of the area in front of the Capitol reflecting pool; you can move the image by clicking on it and dragging it with your mouse.

Read the rest of the article here: Save Women Now Rally.

In an article about the rally, WorldNetDaily had this to say:

A human rights organization says it's not enough for Americans to adopt "resolutions" opposing violence when Islamic girls are stoned for being victims of gang-rapes and warns that such violence already has moved into the United States, with beatings and murders – including a recent beheading – documented.

The result is a plan for a public rally on March 8, International Women's Day, at the Capitol Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C., according to the organization Responsible for Equality and Liberty.

"Every day, women are under attack by Islamic supremacism that supports and approves of oppression, mutilation, and murder of women. According to leaders and followers of Islamic supremacism, they have the right to commit violence against women. Islamic supremacism views oppression of women as a legitimate 'right,' violence against women as a legitimate 'right,' and murdering women as a legitimate 'right,'" the organization announced.

On the same subject, CSPI has just started a new bulletin called Bulletin of the Oppression of Women. Here's the latest issue:

Fallujah, Iraq February 15, 2009 An al-Qaeda terrorist implicated in the rape of four Jordanian women has been arrested.

What can you do? The first and most important thing that needs to be done is to raise awareness. Most people do not know this is going on. If more people were aware of it, international pressure would follow naturally. So one thing you can do right now to make a difference is send this message to everyone you know. And sign the Save Women Now petition and urge everyone you know to sign it too.

Let's end the oppression of women. Everywhere.

America: We Must Come Through For The Free World

On my petition, No More Muslim Immigration to the United States, I got the following comments by people from Germany today (March 7):

"America is the only one wall against facism and nazi-islam. We can beat the mohammedans, but we need the USA."

"Europe has capitulated to Islam. America must now defend Western values."

"I am from Germany and we need a free nation (USA) to which we can emigrate once Islam has taken over our country (around the middle of this century). Don't fall, America!"

Cutting Off Money To Somali Jihadis

"Warships from the U.S. Navy and the Russian Navy arrested 26 suspected pirates off Somalia in separate operations this week, while a maritime watchdog warned on Friday that attacks are stepping up as weather improves and pirates look to replenish their haul after releasing ships hijacked for ransom.

"The latest arrests came Thursday, when an American helicopter from the USS Vella Gulf fired warning shots at gunmen in two skiffs that had opened fire and tried to board the Indian-flagged vessel Premdivya.

"U.S. forces searched the skiff and found weapons including rocket-propelled grenades, then took nine suspected pirates aboard the American ship, the Bahrain-based 5th Fleet said.

"On Wednesday, the same American ship detained seven other suspected pirates - the Navy's first arrests since it established an anti-piracy task force this year. The suspects, armed with AK-47s and rocket-propelled grenades, had tried to board the Marshall Islands-flagged vessel Polaris using a ladder from their skiff."

Read the rest of the story: 26 Suspected Pirates Captured.

And from this article:

"Piracy off Somalia, which has not had a functioning government since 1991, reached record levels last year. Somali pirates, seeking multimillion-dollar ransoms, launched 111 attacks and seized 42 vessels last year, mostly in the Gulf of Aden, with attacks peaking between September and November.

"Somali piracy accounted for the bulk of the 49 vessels hijacked and 889 crewmembers taken hostage around the world in 2008 — the highest worldwide figures since the London-based International Maritime Bureau began keeping records in 1991."

Wilders: Stop Muslim Immigration

IN A SIX-minute interview with Bill O'Reilly, Geert Wilders says that the first, most sensible thing Europe can do is stop immigration from Muslim countries. Watch the interview here:

Geert Wilders Calls for the End of Muslim Immigration

And it might already be too late for Europe. But it is not yet too late for the United States because we still have a low percentage of Muslims. We must stop Muslim immigration before the percentage gets any higher. Not all Muslims follow the religion strictly, but the more Muslims you have, the more politically-active supremacists will be among them, and the more trouble we will have. (Watch a video about that here. Read more about it here.)

So if you haven't signed the petition to stop U.S. Muslim immigration, please sign it now and persuade all your friends and family to sign it. Post it on your FaceBook or MySpace page. Sign the petition here: Stop Muslim Immigration.

Fight For Freedom On FaceBook

FACEBOOK has provided a new way to wage war against Islamic supremacism, and we should take advantage of it. I'm on FaceBook as Charles TheHammer, so if you're already on FaceBook, click here and make me your friend.

What else can you do on FaceBook? Here's what I recommend:

1. Join groups and causes. There are lots of a good groups and causes on FaceBook, and each cause acts as a sifter of sorts. So if you join the cause, for example, 1,000,000 against Jihad, you have already filtered out anyone who would not join such a group. Almost everyone who joined the cause is on our side.

2. Invite people in those groups to be your friends. Do it a little at a time. FaceBook doesn't let you just go through and invite a thousand people a day to be your friends. They consider it spamming. But you can invite ten every day. When you invite someone to be your friend, you have the opportunity to write a message. I recommend you use that opportunity and write something like this: "Hello John. I am committed to stopping Islam's relentless encroachment and because both of us are members of the group 2 Million people against Female Genital Mutilation, we share a common goal, so I think we should be friends." Not everyone will accept, but many will. Over time, you can have hundreds of people who are interested in defeating the third jihad.

And you don't have to confine yourself to inviting people who are already committed. You can find other causes that may be related, and invite those people. That way, you can introduce new people to the cause. If they start being negative or leaving harassing comments on your page, you can UNmake them your friend. It's easy. Go to their page, and scroll down to the bottom left-hand side, and you'll see, "Remove from Friends." Click on that, and they can't leave comments on your page any more.

3. Post an exceptionally good article on your FaceBook page every day or every other day or once a week or whatever. Your friends will see these and if the post looks interesting, they'll read it. This keeps the mission alive in others and increases their knowledge. It also introduces uninitiated people to the cause because often your friends will put some of your posts on their page, so you're helping to spread awareness and information on Islamic supremacism, which is the most important thing that needs to be done right now.

Make your post on FaceBook look good. It helps give your posts a certain amount of credibility and authority when they're well done. Here's how: Go to an article you want to share and copy the URL. Then go to your FaceBook page and click on "Post Link." Paste the URL there and click on "Preview." It will show the title of the article and a little bit of the article. Click on the title and change it if you want. Usually, for example, it will say the name of the blog, and then the title. You can remove the name of the blog to make the title shorter and more eye-catching.

Now go back to the article (in a different window) and take the juiciest, most enticing, intriguing two paragraphs in the article and select them. Right click and copy the text. Go back to FaceBook and click on the text below the title and paste your paragraphs there. Then click "Post." Now you've got a good-looking post with a pithy excerpt that will make people want to read the article.

If you use FaceBook mainly for friends and family (or business), and if your friends and family don't like your interest in the freedom movement (counterjihad), you can sign up on FaceBook as a different name, and just use it for promoting freedom in the way I've described above. Then you can sign in as either identity.

Another alternative is to keep your identity on FaceBook, but post a link or article only every week or so. Keep it low-key. And post "beginner" material — the kind of thing that might not offend too many people, but still says something valuable.

Sometimes someone in your family may make a comment on one of your posts, arguing with you or criticizing you or the article. If this happens and you don't know how to answer it, please write to me and I'll help you formulate an answer. I'm serious about this. I want to know what people are saying. This is where the battle is taking place — right at the point where someone who knows about the third jihad says something to someone who doesn't, and the response is negative. If we don't handle those moments well, we will lose this war. It's that simple.

So write to me. I will help you, and I will probably post the answer as an article too, because if someone says it to you, others are probably hearing the same retort.

4. Post a good political cartoon or picture that says a thousand words. You can post a picture one of two ways: You can download the picture onto your computer and then upload it onto FaceBook (by clicking on "Add Photos") or you can click on the picture wherever you find it. Usually clicking on a picture will take you to a page that has nothing on it but the picture. Now copy the URL and paste it into "Post Link." After it's posted, if the picture is small, you can edit the post. One of the options is to make it larger.

Pictures capture the eye. Each person on FaceBook has a home page and can see the activity of all their friends. Pictures you post on your page will really stand out on your friend's home page, and will attract attention. One of the reasons pictures are appealing is because they represent a very small investment of time. People know that, so they'll often take the moment and look at the picture. So post pictures once in awhile in addition to articles.

By using FaceBook in these ways, you can join with others, you can help gain recruits to the cause, you can help educate the public, and you can lend your weight to many worthy causes. Join the FaceBook revolution and defeat the third jihad using one of our most powerful weapons: Freedom of speech.

Here are some causes I recommend you join right away:

1. 1,000,000 against Jihad

2. Citizens' Declaration of Threat & Plea for Relief

3. 2 Million people against Female Genital Mutilation

4. The Truth about Islam

5. "Wake Up!!!!" campaign against Honor Killing

6. Stop Islamisation Of Europe

A Moderate Muslim Speaks

"Every day on television we are barraged by stories of a 'Muslim extremist, militant, terrorist, or insurgent,'" Hassan said. "But the stories that are missing are the countless stories of Muslim tolerance, progress, diversity, service and excellence that Bridges TV hopes to tell."

A few years later, he beheaded his wife.

A Tribute to Those Who Reported

I just heard a song today, listening to my iPod while my wife and I were eating dinner, and she said, "Is this song about Islam?" I looked it up. Sure enough. It is from a not-very-popular album by Leonard Cohen. The song is called "On That Day." Here are the lyrics:

Some people say
It's what we deserve
For sins against God
For crimes in the world
I wouldn't know
I'm just holding the fort
Since that day
They wounded New York
Some people say
They hate us of old
Our women unveiled
Our slaves and our gold
I wouldn't know
I'm just holding the fort
But answer me this
I won't take you to court
Did you go crazy
Or did you report
On that day
On that day
They wounded New York

Here's a short article about the song (original post is here):

Bruce Springsteen took on the topic practically as if it were commissioned for his 2002 album "The Rising," but it took pop's most authentic poet to stare the subject of Sept. 11 straight in the face.

"Some people say it's what we deserve," Leonard Cohen sings on "On That Day," a little noticed track that appears on his overlooked 2004 album "Dear Heather." Cohen eschews metaphor but maintains a moral distance. "I wouldn't know," he sings, "I'm just holding the fort — since that day they wounded New York."

An unlikely Jew's harp twangs against the song, which could be Cohen's idea of ironic counterpoint. The slight song — it barely breaks the two-minute mark — sounds all the more mournful in his inevitable foggy baritone.

Like all the great poets, Cohen covers immense ground with a few well-chosen words and a couple of half-finished thoughts. "Did you go crazy or did you report," he asks, "on that day they wounded New York?" On the album's liner notes, he makes sure to include a dictionary definition of report: "To present oneself: report for duty."

Death and destruction in the twin towers was such a blinding catastrophe — like the sun exploding — that artists couldn't look at it long. Cohen, in his song, without dwelling on anything, in fact, cuts it short, suggesting we look to ourselves.

Here is the song, as sung by Ken Middleton:

Why Does The West Repeatedly Lose Against An Enemy It Could Easily Destroy?

The Sultan Knish wrote a good article explaining the four main reasons the West continues to lose. It is not only interesting reading, it is insightful. He shows us what needs to be changed, or what barriers we will have to overcome in order to win. One of the four reasons is that diplomacy has become more important in the Western mind than war. As he explains:

War then becomes a halfhearted effort to hurt the enemy just enough to convince them to give in to our peacemaking demands. Unfortunately when the enemy has no interest in giving in, the military campaign quickly becomes a painful bloody drawn out mess with no real objective except buzzwords such as "Stabilization" and "Reining in the Extremist Elements Who Stand in the Way of Peace."

The latest example of such a misguided military campaign could be seen in Gaza, but it can just as well be seen in Iraq, and for that matter Vietnam. If you're not playing to win, but assuming that the enemy will give up and come to the negotiating table, then you're playing to lose... particularly against an enemy who knows how the game is played, and knows that all he needs to do is stay alive long enough for you to give up and go away.

95% of the World's Armed Conflicts

The following is an excerpt from the new investigative report called Islam in American Classrooms: History or Propaganda? (PDF document).

It's thirty pages long, but it's worth reading. It is one of the most carefully-documented specific examples of long-term stealth jihad I have ever read. Excellent. I liked this little tidbit:

According to the online encyclopedia, Wikipedia, in its List of Wars in the Muslim World, since the death of Mohammed there have been 63 major Islamic wars of conquest involving over 201 major battles. It also documents 18 current conflicts involving Muslims, which represent over 95% of the world's armed conflicts. Historians have estimated that Muslims killed over 270 million people during the last 1400 years in their wars of conquest, plunder and enslavement.

Number of Destroyed Schools: 181

"Scores of schools and other government buildings have been blown up over the past two years, in Swat, Bajaur and Mohmand, restive parts of Pakistan's North West Frontier Province (NWFP) and Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) as the Taliban seek to impose a radical Islam and challenge the authority of the government." (Read more.)

"Just 160km from Pakistan's capital, Islamabad, the picturesque valley - once famed for its cosmopolitan ski resort and liberal, artistic community - has become a symbol of the Pakistani Government's inability to crack down on a jihadist movement that is threatening to destabilise the country.

"Almost daily, residents in Mingora, the only major town in Swat, find four to five headless bodies on the streets, victims of the Taliban.

"Responsible for the reign of terror is radical cleric Maulana Fazlullah, a Talibani leader known as Radio Mullah for his fiery sermons broadcast nightly via a pirate FM radio frequency.

"Fazlullah stepped up his campaign in Swat after November's Mumbai attacks when Pakistan redeployed troops to the border with India. In just a few months he is said to have increased his area of control from less than a third to more than 80 per cent of the 9000sqkm area.

"In December, he announced all education for girls would cease by January 15 - when private schools were due to reopen - prompting Pakistani newspaper The News to editorialise: "The beautiful valley now enters a time of darkness."

"The number of schools blown up or torched stands at 181, and militants have blown up power grids, bridges, gas lines and hotels.

"Last week, Fazlullah demanded 40 provincial ministers and local government officials appear before a Taliban court to answer charges of causing unrest in the area, or face death." (Read more.)

How can Islam's constant expansion be stopped? The first step is widespread education. Had more people been aware of Islamic supremacist doctrines and the third jihad, there would have been more support for the efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan, and we would have been more forceful in insisting their governments prevent Shari'a from worming its way into their laws.

We have many decisions to be made, new policies to instigate in the United States and all free countries. We need to change immigration policies, policies to stop madrassas from teaching hatred, policies to stop building mosques and preaching hatred in them, policies to eject Jihadis from government positions, policies about how Islam is taught in schools and who approves those teachings, policies about who is allowed to be a "chaplain" in prisons (many Islamic supremacists have converted prisoners to jihadis — it is a hotspot of new recruits), and of course, policies about military action.

None of these new policies can come about until there is a public will to protect ourselves, and that public will cannot come about until a lot more people are educated. It needs to happen and it needs to happen now. Start here.

Forest Fire Jihad

On a recent post of mine about a Christian pastor who is converting Muslims into Christians right and left in the Middle East, an anonymous person left a link to an interesting story (see the story below). And I realized this is a really good example to use when talking to people about jihad.

One of the most common response we get is, "But it's only a handful of extremists. Most Muslims are not terrorists."

I've found a good response to this -- a response that takes them aback and shuts them up, and clearly makes them realize they don't know what the hell is going on -- is to say, "There are many ways to wage jihad. Terrorism is only one of many ways. For example, some are waging jihad by using their oil wealth to build mosques and madrassas all over the free world, and making sure they teach hatred toward the West in those outlets. Some are waging jihad by getting every informative video on Islam banned from YouTube. Some wage it by giving money to charitable foundations that send their money to pay for suicide bombs. Some wage it by sueing anyone who writes anything critical of Islam. And some wage forest fire jihad."

An Australian news source recently published this story. Here is an excerpt from the article:

US intelligence channels earlier this year identified a website calling on Muslims in Australia, the US, Europe and Russia to "start forest fires", claiming "scholars have justified chopping down and burning the infidels' forests when they do the same to our lands".

The website, posted by a group called the Al-Ikhlas Islamic Network, argues in Arabic that lighting fires is an effective form of terrorism justified in Islamic law under the "eye for an eye" doctrine.

The posting — which instructs jihadis to remember "forest jihad" in summer months — says fires cause economic damage and pollution, tie up security agencies and can take months to extinguish so that "this terror will haunt them for an extended period of time".

"Imagine if, after all the losses caused by such an event, a jihadist organisation were to claim responsibility for the forest fires," the website says. "You can hardly begin to imagine the level of fear that would take hold of people in the United States, in Europe, in Russia and in Australia."

The Cheerleaders

I ran the following story here on the IBA some time back, and we have an update. The Cheerleaders (also known as the Fighting Cocks) have a MySpace page:

The Fighting Cocks

And they have a fan group on FaceBook:

Cheerleadered!

Here's what they did that brought them to our attention in the first place:

A few months ago, I got an email from a person named Charlie who said, "Last night, my group took out IslamBase, the main UK jihadist website. So rah for us!"

I looked up IslamBase, and there were lots of results for the search on Google, and the two main ones were out.

I just checked again, and they're still off line:

http://islambase.co.uk is not even there.

http://www.muslimtents.com/islambase says their site is "under construction."

I asked Charlie how they did it. He said,

It's a group of us — we're called P2OG, or by the nickname The Cheerleaders. Basically we track and disrupt violent extremists, mostly Islamic extremists, based in the UK.

Islambase is the main website and forum for UK jihadis.

Using various methods we've identified who the top people are on Islambase and by warning them that we're going to put their names on posters all over London, we got the site disrupted. If it goes up again, we'll post their names on the site itself. And so it goes on!

Any info worth sending on, we send on to relevant agencies, i.e. SO15 (the Counter-Terrorist Command in London) or the Home Office.

I looked up P2OG and found out it stood for "Proactive Preemptive Operations Group." The Defense Science Board (DSB) conducted a 2002 "DSB Summer Study on Special Operations and Joint Forces in Support of Countering Terrorism." They DSB recommend the creation of a super-Intelligence Support Activity, an organization it dubbed the Proactive, Preemptive Operations Group (P2OG), to bring together CIA and military covert action, information warfare, intelligence and cover and deception. For example, the Pentagon and CIA would work together to increase human intelligence, forward/operational presence and to deploy new clandestine technical capabilities.

I asked Charlie if that's what P2OG stands for, and if so, is that who The Cheerleaders are. He said:

It does indeed stand for that. When we realized that the DSB study wouldn't lead to the Pentagon setting up the original unit, we took the name. That way, if any jihadis search for us, they just get a load of conspiracy theories!

In real life, we're me, some ex-army intel people, some hackers, and a bunch of girls with funny-colored hair!

However, the theory behind the original plan still stands — we get in there and proactively stir things up.

Violent jihad is spreading around the world because Jihadis are effectively using the internet. The Cheerleaders are making their task much more difficult, and doubtless saving the lives of innumerable non-Muslims. They are heroes.

Converting Muslims Into Christians

I'm not a Christian, but I consider Christians to be the most powerful force in the counterjihad. Someone just sent me this link:

www.rezasafa.com

It's the web site and ministry of an ex-Muslim who is now a Christian pastor, and he is having some significant success converting Muslims into Christians.

I've often thought that the real long-term solution to the problem will have to be Muslims becoming apostates one way or another. If that means converting to Christianity, that's great. Anyway, I thought this site might be of interest, maybe even deep interest to the Christians among us.

Taqiyya in Action

IN THE BOOK, Terrorist Hunter: The Extraordinary Story of a Woman Who Went Undercover to Infiltrate the Radical Islamic Groups Operating in America, Rita Katz wrote about being at an IAP conference in Chicago. IAP is the Islamic Association for Palestine. There were lots of booths at the conference for "charitable" organizations, and at one of these booths, Katz met a man she already knew about: Muhammad Salah. She pretended she didn't know who he was, and he introduced himself as a "Muslim human rights activist."

Katz, a non-Muslim woman dressed as a Muslim, wrote, "He was small, thin, nearly bald. Totally harmless looking." He told her these conferences were so important because "we can teach you about the oppression and sufferings of Muslims in America and all over the world."

Then he told Katz his story. He had been a Palestinian with an American citizenship, a used-car salesman, working in Chicago when he went to Israel to "visit family and friends." But in Israel he was arrested by the Israeli authorities and thrown into prison for five years!

Katz looked appropriately appalled and asked why in heaven's name would they put him in prison? "Because the Israelis oppress innocent Palestinians," he said. "And do you know what is the most shocking part? When I returned to the U.S., after I was tortured and I thought I was going to die in that prison, the Americans placed me under investigation and froze my assets! Me, an innocent citizen, a car dealer, a family man, father of five!"

To any other kafir this probably would have been a convincing story. The poor, oppressed Muslim! It's just wrong to treat people that way. Those Israelis must be very cruel. Those Americans are so oppressive to Muslims!

But Katz was not an ordinary kafir. She researched people like Salah for a living. She knew all about him. This frail, innocent-looking man was the leader of the worldwide military wing of Hamas, a brutal terrorist organization! When he was arrested in Israel he had a hundred thousand dollars in cash on him. In his testimony, he admitted the money was supposed to go to "members of Hamas's military wing." He displayed detailed inside knowledge of Hamas's structure and funding, and his testimony was later used as evidence in the New York trial of Musa Abu Marzook, the leader of the political bureau of Hamas (and the man who had appointed Salah to his position as leader of the military wing).

Katz writes:

"Salah disclosed (in his testimony) that he'd been authorized by Marzook to recruit individuals for training in the uses of explosives to fight in the 'holy war.' In the United States, Salah began training ten such recruits, three of whom were chosen to carry out attacks. In addition to supervising the building of bombs, explosives, and remote detonation devices, Salah was instructed by Marzook to develop biological and chemical weapons for Hamas."

When Nasser Hidmi was caught trying to detonate a bomb in Israel, he said he had been chosen by none other than the poor, innocent, abused, oppressed Muslim, Muhammad Salah.

This is an example of taqiyya, the principle of religious deception. According to mainstream Islamic doctrine, Islam is in a permanent state of war with any non-Muslim who opposes the rule of Shari'a law. And in war, deceit is a legitimate tactic.

In other words, as long as it helps the Islamic goal of making the whole world submit to Shari'a law, it is perfectly all right to lie and deceive.

When I was trying to figure out what I would choose as the three most important things to tell a non-Muslim about Islam, taqiyya was one of the three. The use of taqiyya is the main reason most non-Muslims are so confused about the real nature of Islam — they are constantly being intentionally deceived by Islamic supremacists posing as reasonable, "moderate" Muslims, who are thoroughly fooling everyone from political leaders to the media that "Islam is a religion of peace" and that "Islam has been hijacked by extremists."

What they don't want non-Muslims to know is that Islamic teachings are highly political and it is a Muslim's religious duty to strive to accomplish Islam's primary political goal — the establishment of worldwide Shari'a law — in any way he can for his whole life.

Why wouldn't Islamic supremacists want non-Muslims to know this? Because they can make a lot more progress toward their goal if most of us are in the dark.

But now you know. If you don't, read the Qur'an and find out for yourself. And then spread the word.

Good For Him!

President Nicolas Sarkozy dropped an "intellectual bombshell" this week, surprising the nation and touching off waves of protest with his revision of the school curriculum: beginning next fall, he said, every fifth grader will have to learn the life story of one of the 11,000 French children killed by the Nazis in the Holocaust.

Read the whole article in the New York Times.

The article says: "Political opponents dismissed the plan as his latest misguided idea, unveiled without reflection or consultation. Some historians argued that the focus on victims could steer attention away from the Vichy government’s collaboration with the Nazis. Still others warned that the plan could backfire, creating resentment among France’s ethnic Arab and African populations if they felt their own histories were getting short shrift."

I don't know this for sure, but I read this paragraph more like this: "Muslims and multiculturalists criticized the plan in every way they could think of that would sound reasonable and plausible. The Muslims and their appeasers gave a subtle, underhanded warning that denying them their holocaust denial would result in uprisings and violence."

I couldn't help but see Sarkozy's plan as a direct opposition to the Muslims' denial of the holocaust. If so, I think it's a victory for our side.

This is an interesting film of a guy who goes to a place near the Khyber Pass where they are illegally making 1000 guns a day in one town.
