Whoever is most organized is going to win this war in the long run (think about the scene from Gladiator at the beginning of the movie, and think about the difference between the tight, organized attack by Rome against the tough but unorganized Germanians).Right now in this war, Muslims are more organized. Check out what I just received in an email newsletter from MPAC (Muslim Public Affairs Council):
(New York City - 11/19/08) -- On Thursday, November 20th, the Muslim American Civil Liberties Coalition (MACLC) will hold a press conference at New York City Hall to mark the official release of its critique of the NYPD's controversial report "Radicalization in the West: The Homegrown Threat."
Released last summer, the NYPD report falsely alludes to the susceptibility of all Muslim males aged 16 to 45 to terrorist ideology.
At the press conference, MACLC members will provide recommendations to the NYPD to preserve national security interests, safeguard Muslim American civil liberties, and improve community-police relations.WHAT: MACLC Press Conference Critiquing NYPD Report on Domestic RadicalismThe Muslim American Civil Liberties Coalition is a New York-based coalition of Muslim advocates, attorneys and community leaders created in 2007, in the wake of the New York City Police Department report, "Radicalization in the West: The Homegrown Threat." MACLC exists for the purpose of articulating a New York-specific Muslim perspective on homeland security, civil liberties, and counterterrorism decision-making.

This is pretty sophisticated. Everything about it has the sense of authority and legitimacy to anyone ignorant of taqiyya. They must be fought with equal or greater sophistication. One possible organization that may be equal to the task in the United States is AFA (ACT! For America). I urge you to sign up for the AFA newsletter, to share the organization with all your friends, to join a local chapter in your area, and to read her two books.
Different countries have similar organizations. In Austria: Contact Mission Europa.Netzwerk Karl Martell at missioneuropa@live.at.
If you know of a good organization taking effective action in your country, please leave contact information in the comments on this article.

IBA & Fellow Bloggers -- you are the 300!

Organized attack is always easier, since YOU have the initiative. You pick and choose when, where and how.
My great by 8 grandfather fought with/for the 55. We've been hanging around this town a looong time, stirring things up.
Sometimes in these kinds of events there are Sikhs, sometimes Christians, sometimes even Jews. They have all been fooled. They think that they're going to have "dialog." They think they're all eventually going to get along. They don't have a fucking clue.
Dear hate-filled Jews and Christians: give it up!
Judge Rules That Suspects Cannot Be Detained Because of Ethnicity
A federal judge in Brooklyn ruled on Monday that the United States government could not use ethnicity as justification for detaining two Egyptian-born men who were questioned for four hours after a cross-country flight in 2004.

White=Stupid, I am neither a Jew or Christian, and I completely agree that someone should not be detained because of ethnicity.
However, as it says in the article you gave us, they were detained for questioning because they had "had acted strangely during their flight." The "two counterterrorism agents had observed them switching seats, checking their watches often and speaking in Arabic."
This sounds very much like a setup similar to the case of the six imams who were denied access to a U.S. Airways flight in 2006 is instructive. CAIR, which represented these imams, claimed this was a clear case of discrimination against Muslims. Yet the imams were prevented from flying not because they were Muslim or held a prayer session directly outside the gate (and again on the plane, which is peculiar since even devout Muslims do not pray this frequently), but because they were behaving like hijackers. The imams demanded to board at the same time even though only two had first-class tickets and then attempted to reseat themselves on the plane in a suspicious formation (two in the tail, two in the mid-section, and two in first class). They muttered loudly in Arabic about jihad and cursed the United States for its involvement in Iraq. They requested seat belt extensions (which can be used as makeshift weapons) even though none was large enough to need it. Other Muslim passengers on the flight were not harassed. Given their blatantly suspicious behavior it has been suggested by many that the imams were deliberately trying to provoke their removal from the airplane. (source: here)
This is a classic use of the principle of pretext in provoking a hostile response so Muslims can "defend Islam." (read more about that)
I don't really know what their real intentions were, of course, and neither do you. I can say something about you, however. You seem to be prejudiced against Jews, Christians, and people with fair skin. In other words, you appear to be hate-filled and that hate is directed toward ethnicity. What seems equally strange is that we here at the IBA have taken a stand against exactly that sort of thing. (read more)
