Winds Of War: The Sleeper Awakes?

My self and other bloggers have written about one of the main threats to our freedoms and a primary tactic of the Islamists – radical mosques.

The non-Muslim world has enough proof that a very large number of Saudi funded mosques in the non-Muslim world preach the hate ideology of Wahabism , yet, outside of reporting these radical mosques and their traitorous activities, little is being done to actually curb the threat to our way or life.

But that’s changing.

Official on Iran stunts: "I wouldn't say they want a fight, but they appear to be ready for one."


Always a step behind

Iran staged at least three confrontations with U.S. Navy

WASHINGTON — Security officials said Iran set up a series of naval confrontations with the United States in the Gulf in recent weeks.

Officials said Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy sought to provoke the U.S. Navy at least three times in less than a month. They said the incidents appeared to establish an aggressive IRGC policy in the Gulf.

"They are testing our responses and measuring our defenses for their new swarm strategy," an official said. "I wouldn't say they want a fight, but they appear to be ready for one."

So far, the Defense Department has only detailed the U.S. Navy encounter with five IRGC fast attack craft in the Strait of Hormuz on Jan. 6.

Officials said this was the most serious of the three Iranian provocations even though no shots were fired.

"This is one of these moments where there's no time to be spending a lot time on the phone trying to figure out what to do," President George Bush said on Jan. 15. "These are highly trained professionals who I thought dealt with it in a very professional way."

On Dec. 16, the U.S. Navy fired warning shots toward an IRGC speedboat. Officials said the USS Whidbey Island, an amphibious warship, had been approached by an IRGC vessel in the Strait of Hormuz, the passage for about 30 percent of global oil shipments.

I still believe the best response would have been to turn them into shreds without another word

Officials said the IRGC speedboat veered away when shots were fired by Whidbey Island. They said the IRGC vessel did not return fire.

So they now understand how close they can come before warning shot is fired.

Another IRGC confrontation also took place in December 2007. Officials said the USS Carr, a guided missile frigate, was confronted by three IRGC speedboats in the Strait of Hormuz.

The USS Carr blew its ship whistles to scare off the Iranian vessels, which came within 500 meters. Officials said no clash was reported.

What's the range of RPG's? 500 meters is also the maximum range of rocket assisted flight, which enables a flatter trajectory and more accurate aiming. You don't think these boys are thinking about real damage do you? A dozen RPG's headed at you is quite distraction. From what?

Officials linked the three incidents and said the Jan. 6 confrontation was the first in which IRGC simulated the laying of mines in the Strait of Hormuz. The mock mines turned out to be white boxes.

"We had not seen Revolutionary Guard boats behave in this aggressive a manner in this number before, in combination with all the other things I just outlined — ignoring warnings, dropping the boxes and of course the fact that there was a threat simultaneous to that added to the tension," Pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell said on Jan. 15. "The combination of all those things is what differentiates this incident from previous incidents."

Time for Diet Pepsi Max with Ginseng, Geoff. These guys REALLY BELIEVE god will guide them to a big win some sunday afternoon after the coin toss.

Changing Signs

From across The Pond in the UK, comes this January 17, 2008 article [Hat-tip to Up Pompeii]:
Government renames Islamic terrorism as 'anti-Islamic activity' to woo Muslims

Ministers have adopted a new language for declarations on Islamic terrorism.

In future, fanatics will be referred to as pursuing "anti-Islamic activity"....
And right here in the United States, America's Truth Forum has been forced to bow to political correctness. Via this article at Jihad Watch, here is the original version of a billboard sign advertising the upcoming symposium on February 1-2:



And the "approved" version:



Robert Spencer's commentary on the above (emphasis mine):
Why the changes? The sales manager of a Dallas-area billboard company explained: “My boss wouldn’t go along with this type of advertising since we have an international clientele -- some of whom might be on the other side."

The other side? On the side of the jihadists?

Imagine an American billboard company in 1942 toning down an anti-Nazi billboard because, well, some of their clients are Nazis!
Decrying the coming of Eurabia, we Americans sit here in the land of the free and the home of the brave. In the process of our criticism of the dhimmitude "over there," at the same time, we say to ourselves, "We're smarter than that. We'll never be dhimmis to the same extent that Europeans are."

Really?

We talk bravely and, many times, openly. Still, the little steps of dhimmitude are marching right over us. Sometimes the march is of the type which changed the America's Truth Forum sign: that of economic jihad, stirred by the stick of political correctness and, maybe, by fear.

How far away is Amerarabia?

American Counter-jihadists, I'm warning you today. Don't be smug. "It" can happen here. In fact, "it" already is.

Too bad that, YouTube techtard that I am, I can't change some of the lyrics and images in the following video so as to fit the signs I see of the West's rapid descent into dhimmitude:

Remember how Bolton was so sceptical and disgusted over the agreement with NoKo to dismantle?


Three missed North Korean deadlines and countingbolton2.jpg

State Department officials, led by assistant secretary Christopher Hill, are scrambling to salvage the North Korea nuclear accord from failure after Pyongyang missed three deadlines to fully disclose its nuclear program.

The North Koreans provided what State officials said was an “incomplete” declaration of nuclear weapons programs that made no mention of EvKorea’s uranium enrichment program, the covert program that first triggered the crisis.


There is no way. Our state dept should just be made to deal with the UN and the whole bunch of them should just be in Geneva, or Basel with easy access to France. The whole world would be a better place. Are they this naive or do they simply wish to be so ineffective as to harm the USA? How could ANYONE take the North Koreans seriously on doing away with a functioning nuclear weapons program?




U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Christopher Hill arrives at the Beijing airport on Jan. 10, to discuss the North Korea nuclear issue with his Chinese counterpart. AP/Ng Han Guan
State officials are not concerned with actually seeing North Korea dismantle its nuclear arms program and are mainly concerned with continuing the “process” of the six-nation talks, according to critics of the process.

“They are not interested in a deal that will actually produce a de-nuclearized agreement,” said one U.S. official close to the process.

State Department Undersecretary Nicholas Burns (who thank goodness has now resigned-Epa) is a key force behind the failed nuclear talks, along with Hill, who spent last week in Asia attempting to salvage the February 2007 agreement.

Hill said in Tokyo Jan. 7 that North Korea must declare 100 percent of its nuclear programs. “We don't need a 90 percent declaration; we need a 100 percent declaration," said Hill.

Otherwise we will write a really mean letter to them and make them feel bad

"They have not provided a complete and correct declaration. By that I mean that they have not included all of the nuclear programs they have, they have not included all the nuclear facilities they have," he said.

"A partial declaration is really no declaration at all," Hill said after talks with his Japanese counterpart in the six-nation talks, Kenichiro Sasae.

U.S. intelligence agencies have evidence of North Korean highly enriched uranium, but Pyongyang continues to deny having any uranium enrichment.
Even though the entire planet detected a nuclear detonation there. What use is the state dept, besides as a shill for the Al Saud to create a terrorist state of Sunnis in the west bank? Ms Rice, take it away....
How incredibly disappointing a level this administration has sunk to in foreign affairs! They have absolutely NO credibility. Not to us and not to our enemies.

Why would Israel give Syria 16 years before acting against its long range missile program?


GERTZ:

In 1991, amid the Gulf war, Syria understood the lesson of ballistic missile strikes from Iraq. Syria began ordering extended-range missiles from North Korea in a move that significantly expanded their relationship.

What Damascus wanted was medium-range missiles that could strike Israel from deep within Syria. This was the primary lesson of the 1991 Gulf war for the late Syrian President Hafez Assad.

In the last days of the Gulf war, Assad ordered Scud C ballistic missiles, with a range of 500 kilometers, from North Korea as well as expertise to eventually produce them in Syria. Pyongyang was prompt and sent a shipment of missiles in a transaction monitored by Israel's Mossad.

SCUD_D.jpg

Not exactly a whopping shock.

Mossad urged the government of Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir to destroy the boat. The Mossad argument was that Assad would not dare to order additional missiles if he knew that they would never reach his country.

What I would have probably done.

Mossad agents installed an electronic tracking device on the North Korean missile shipment as the Al Yarmouk freighter anchored in Casablanca, Morocco. The device weighed more than two pounds and was placed on the hull by a Mossad diver.

With Al Yarmouk under full surveillance, the Israeli military was preparing to destroy the boat in the Mediterranean. Israel would not admit to the attack.

Righteous operation

But the plan was shelved by Shamir. The prime minister, believed warned by the United States, ordered the boat to be left alone and Al Yarmouk arrived in the Syrian port of Latakia in March 1991.

Wait a minute, I thought the USA did what the Israel lobby, LIKUD and the jews want.

Syria had its first Scud Cs and within a few years acquired production capability. Later, Damascus acquired and produced the Scud D, with a range of 700 kilometers. Assad got his wish of being able to target anywhere in Israel.

In September 2007, Israel finally acted. After months of trying to convince the Bush administration, the Israel Air Force struck and destroyed a suspected nuclear facility in northwestern Syria. The assessment was Syria was trying to weaponize warheads for the Scud D.

Well it's one theory. But it doesn't sound much like Itzhak Shamir to me. Bush and Baker famously hated his guts because he just didn't listen.

I think the Israelis took out the sight in the Syria desert because they believe it was a nuclear weapons related plant..anything from the beginning of a program to a weaponization of outsourced NoKo U-235. More explosive weapons on missiles is not something for a major IAF operation.

More Ways To Skin A Cat

Perhaps the Islamists don’t need to be martyrs anymore. What with instructions to Jihadists to start forest fires in dry areas and a belief that the fires in Greece were deliberately started and the attacks on the internet by jihadist cyber warriors who needs a bomb?

The CIA has launched a major hunt for international computer hackers who are threatening to throw cities into chaos by sabotaging their electricity supplies. In a shock announcement last night the American spy agency said that the hackers were running a massive extortion plot.

They are threatening to cut off city lighting and power supplies unless they are paid huge sums of ransom money.

And according to senior CIA analyst Tom Donahue the hackers have already proven that they can disrupt the utilities by causing blackouts in several cities outside the US.

What’s that got to do with Islamist terrorists you may ask. Because it could be the next thing, they will have the ways and means, and it will cause huge disruption with little chance of detection. Oh and also:

“We do not know who executed these attacks or why, but all involved intrusions through the Internet.”

The cyber power attacks, revealed for the first time by Mr Donahue, have particularly alarmed the White House.

Members of the Bush administration believe that highly skilled terrorist hackers may now follow the extortionists’ lead and try to disable power, water and chemical plants in the US and Western Europe.

As the Chinese would say “may you live in interesting times” We certainly do. Too interesting if you ask me.

Two Audios: Who Is Allah? & Islamphobia

From The Idiots Guide To Islam at In The Name Of Allah:



YouTube Link:
We are INDOCTRINATED to believe that ALLAH is GOD.

Allah is NOT God. Allah is only the NAME of a god.




YouTube Link:
The Muslim population HYPOCRITICALLY accuses the West of 'Islamophobia'.

Isn't it natural that we should be terrified of Muhammadan Islam?
The entire series of audios is HERE. Also see In The Name Of Allah, which offers articles on topics related to the history of Islam, including this excellent introduction to Islam. Excerpt from near the end of "Introduction to Islam":
Politicians and theologians keep repeating the mantra that Islam is a religion of 'peace', when the history of Muhammadan Islam is written with the blood of conquests and subjugation of tens of millions of nations in at least twenty-five countries spanning three continents - Asia, Africa and Europe - stretching from India and China in the east to the Atlantic in the west. The subject peoples of these lands - who had their own religions and beliefs - did not voluntarily become 'Muslims' through dialogue and spiritual enlightenment.
[Hat-tip to Mark Alexander, where I found the second of the above audios]

How To Behead An Infidel

I found this by chance, thought it might come in handy, or more to the point confirmation that the only way of dealing with Islamists is to be as ruthless as they are. Guantanamo - keep it going. Extraordinary rendition - whatever. Torture - bring it on. I'm not sure my tongue is in my cheek, and neither are you so don't flame me over that:

Islam Online, a website that has mass popularity throughout the Muslim world has published a gruesome poem detailing how to behead a human being.

Here is exactly what the group posted, which is still up on its own page within Islam Online’s ‘Arts & Culture’ section: Click the link to see it.


How to Behead

Hold him
Tie the arms behind his back
And bandage his legs together
Just by the ankles
Blindfold the punk
So that he won't hesitate as much
For on seeing the sharp pointy knife
He'll begin to shake
And continuously scream like an eedyat
And jiggle like a jelly
Trust me–this will sure get you angry
It’s better to have at least two or three brothers by your side
Who can hold the fool
Because as soon as the warm sharp knife
Touches his naked flesh
He'll come to know what'll happen
It's not as messy or as hard as some may think,
It's all about the flow of the wrist.
No doubt that the punk will twitch and scream
But ignore the donkey's ass
And continue to slice back and forth
You'll feel the knife hit the wind and food pipe
But don't stop
Continue with all your might.
About now you should feel the knife vibrate,
You can feel the warm heat being given off,
But this is due to the friction being caused.
.............

We had the Bomb. We had the Allah Akbar Knifing attempt. I wonder how long before some Maldivian "misunderstands" and attempts a beheading in Maldives.

I found the beheading item on this site which appears to be a Maldivian's site. it seems that the Maldives has been forcibly turned into an Islamic regime, much against the will of the inhabitants. I didn't know that.

The Heathrow Connection: Two Jets Lose Power In The Same Week


The first plane was on its way to Heathrow in London. The second plane was flying out of London to Thailand.

1st incident

2nd incident (first reported by IBA contributor Ray Boyd)

Both stories note that this was a higlhly unusual occurrence. And yet, it happened twice in a week?

Jets often fly back and forth on the same route. Could both of these jets have been on routes which took them in and out of London on an almost daily basis? And, if so, is this an act of terrorism?

It looks like it very well could be.

And, if it is, is the culprit, or culprits behind this attack alive and ready to do it again?

Let's try to dig up more on this.

Belarus's journalist: three years' in prison for publishing the Mohammed Cartoons

Reporters Without Borders is outraged by the three-year prison sentence passed today by a court in Minsk on Alyaksandr Zdvizhkou, former deputy editor of the weekly Zhoda, for reprinting cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed that first appeared in a Danish newspaper. He was found guilty of “inciting racial hatred” under article 130 of the criminal code at the end of a trial behind closed doors.
The Belarus' dictatorship was on of the countries which voted for the UN's resolution against the defamation of religions.

PA Religious Leaders Call for Genocide of Jews

From Front Page Magazine (with thanks to Najistani):


Twice in three days, PA religious leaders have openly called for the genocide of Jews. Broadcast on official PA TV, both called for the murder of Jews until the Jewish people are annihilated. Both presented the killing of Jews not merely as the will of Allah, but also as a necessary stage in history that should be carried out now. To support these mandatory killings, both cited the same Hadith - Islamic tradition attributed to Mohammed - expressing Allah’s will that Muslims will kill Jews, before the “Hour” of Resurrection.

The words of the Hadith:

"The Hour [Resurrection] will not take place until the Muslims fight the Jews,
and kill them. And the Jews will hide behind the rock and tree, and the rock and
tree will say: oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, this is a Jew behind me, come and
kill him!"


Numerous times in recent years Palestinian religious leaders and academics have taught publicly that this particular Hadith applies today. This teaching may well be a dominant motivating factor that drives terror against Israeli civilians, because it presents the killing of Jews as a religious obligation, not related to the conflict over borders, but as something inherent to Allah’s world.

Note also the defining of Jews as "the brothers of the monkeys and pigs" in Maadi's religious lesson. PA religious leaders teach, based on a story in the Quran, that Jews were cursed by Allah and turned into monkeys and pigs. This is consistent with the PA teaching that the Jew's have inherent and unchanging character defects.

Click to view the teachings of Sheik Ibrahim Madiras during his Friday sermon and Dr. Muhammad Ibrahim Maadi on his weekly TV show teaching Islam.

The following are the texts of these broadcasts:Sheik Ibrahim Madiras Friday sermon, PA TV Sept. 10, 2004:

"The Prophet said: the Resurrection will not take place until the Muslims
fight the Jews, and the Muslims kill them. The Muslims will kill the Jews,
rejoice [in it], rejoice in Allahs Victory. The Muslims will kill the Jews, and
he will hide

The Prophet said: the Jews will hide behind the rock and tree, and the rock
and tree will say: oh servant of Allah, oh Muslim this is a Jew behind me, come
and kill him!. Why is there this malice? Because there are none who love the
Jews on the face of the earth: not man, not rock, and not tree everything hates
them. They destroy everything they destroy the trees and destroy the houses.
Everything wants vengeance on the Jews, on these pigs on the face of the earth,
and the day of our victory, Allah willing, will come."

Dr. Muhammad Ibrahim Maadi on his weekly TV show, Sept. 12, 2004:

"We are waging this cruel war with the brothers of the monkeys and pigs, the
Jews and the sons of Zion The Jews will fight you and you will subjugate them.
Until the Jew will stand behind the tree and rock. And the tree and rock will
say: oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill
him."

The Taliban and their militant sympathizers now hold strategic pockets on the city’s outskirts


No, not in Afghanistan.

Frontier Insurgency Spills Into a Pakistani City

PESHAWAR, Pakistan — For centuries, fighting and lawlessness have been part of the fabric of this frontier city. But in the past year, Pakistan’s war with Islamic militants has spilled right into its alleys and bazaars, its forts and armories, killing policemen and soldiers and scaring its famously tough citizens.

There is a sense of siege here, as the Islamic insurgency pours out of the adjacent tribal region into this city, one of Pakistan’s largest, and its surrounding districts.

pashawar.jpg

The Taliban and their militant sympathizers now hold strategic pockets on the city’s outskirts, the police say, from where they strike at the military and the police, order schoolgirls to wear the burqa and blow up stores selling DVDs, among other acts of violence.

Suicide bombings, bomb explosions and missile attacks occurred an average of once a week here in 2007, according to a tally by the city’s police department. In 2006, while there were occasional grenade attacks and explosions, the authorities did not record a single suicide bombing or rocket attack inside the city.

Just imagine this in Philadelphia, a city with HALF Peshawar's population, oh and BTW

The proximity of Peshawar to the tribal areas where the Taliban and Al Qaeda have regrouped in the past two years makes the city a feasible prize for the militants in Pakistan’s quickly escalating internal strife that pits the Islamic extremists against the American-backed government of President Pervez Musharraf.

Though few here believe that the Taliban will rule anytime soon, the police and residents say that by the standards of counterinsurgency warfare the extremists are doing well. They have undermined public faith in the government, sown distrust and made the police fearful for their lives. “People feel the insecurity is so high, no one can fix it,” said Humair Bilour, the sister-in-law of Malik Saad, a popular Peshawar police chief who was killed in a suicide bomb attack last year. “How can the government do anything when the government itself is involved in it?”

Remember this list....


The group dubbed "Cities against Islamisation" was presented to the media in the northern Belgian city of Antwerp by

claude_shocked.jpg

Filip Dewinter, head of the far-right Belgian party Vlaams Belang (Flemish Interest) along with Austrian FPOE leader Heinz-Christian Strace and Robert Spieler of the regionalist Alsace First group.

Parties from Britain (the British National Party), Denmark, Germany and Italy were also represented at the launch of the group which has a road-sign-style crossed-out mosque as its logo.


Vlaams Belang
BNP
FPOE
Alsace First

These ethnic nationalist (i.e. WHITE first) groups, have no place among those fighting for FREEDOM and EQUITY against jihadism. They are the Battista's and Franco's of the war against communism, ON THEIR BEST DAY. They are closer to David Duke than anything I care to be associated with, and lack only primacy on their 'list' to others instead of Islamist radicals to make them visible as what they are. Their fundamentally and necessarily racist result will deligitimize standing against radical islam.
