But We're Still Gonna Kill You. Not long after the Ayatollah Khomeini announced his fatwa against Salman Rushdie, the British novelist suddenly turned up on a Muslim radio station in West London late one night and told his interviewer he'd converted to Islam. Marvelous religion, couldn't be happier, Allahu Akbar and all that. And the Ayatollah said hey, that's terrific news, glad to hear it. But we're still gonna kill you. Surgical Implants Filled with Explosives Are Undetectable in Suicide Bombers. Britain's MI5 intelligence service reports that al-Qaida is recruiting female suicide bombers who have had explosives surgically implanted in their breasts. Male suicide bombers are undergoing similar surgeries; but instead of the breast area, the explosives are implanted in the buttocks or appendix areas. Merry Christmas from the World of Islam. With attention focused on the flagrant security breaches around Flight 253 on Christmas Day, too little has been made of the timing of the attack. Most readers will be surprised to learn that this was not the only Christmas attack on Christians. Here is a list of other holiday attacks which I found without extensive research... Isn't it noteworthy that you did not hear about any of this from the general media? Hey, let's talk about Islam! If one goes by the Pentagon's recent report on the Ft. Hood terrorist attack, the Pentagon's PC putzes wouldn't recognize a Muslim terrorist if one jumped up and bit them... So in the interest of national security, I have collected some statements made by folks over the years, which might point the Pentagon in the right direction. Malaysia and the Myth of Islamic Tolerance: Malaysia is often held up as the model of what a modern Muslim-majority nation can be. The ruling class, the bumiputra (literally "princes of the earth") are largely, though not entirely, Muslim. But when Malaysia's High Court ruled in late December to lift a government ban on non-Muslims using the word "Allah," Christian churches became the targets of fire-bombing attacks. This eruption of violence suggests that there is trouble brewing just beneath the surface even in this supposed paradise of Islamic moderation. Killing Muslims. Al Qaeda does one thing extremely well: killing Muslims. Between 2006 and 2008, only 2 percent of the terror multinational's victims were Westerners. The rest were citizens of Muslim countries. Even as al Qaeda claims to be their defender. 'Terror mom' and two jurors tossed from trial. Another day in the trial of Aafia Siddiqui, another outburst. The MIT-educated Pakistani "terror mom" turned into a holy terror today [1/25/2010] when a federal judge booted her from a federal courtroom in Manhattan following yet another rant. This time, Siddiqui was joined by two jurors, who were excused in a separate issue after they were threatened by a spectator, the judge said. Taliban Rape Tapes: A 'Muslim Abu Ghraib'. With breaking news out of Palestine today that a top aide to President Mahmoud Abbas has been literally caught with his pants down, rape tapes seem to be popping up all over the pious Muslim world. And some are horrifically worse than others. Flying High. [Scroll down] What nobody in authority thinks us grown-up enough to be told is this: We had better get used to being the civilians who are under a relentless and planned assault from the pledged supporters of a wicked theocratic ideology. These people will kill themselves to attack hotels, weddings, buses, subways, cinemas, and trains. They consider Jews, Christians, Hindus, women, homosexuals, and dissident Muslims (to give only the main instances) to be divinely mandated slaughter victims. Terror probes — what you're not being told. Intelligence analysis confirmed that Islamic terrorists always use such practice runs, often dubbed "dry runs" or probes to assess operational logistics and various aspects of airline security. Knowing that and having better hindsight after 9/11, why haven't we seen media reports, DHS, FBI or TSA acknowledgement of such probes prior to the Christmas Day bombing attempt? Was there a practice run for flight 253? What about the second person reportedly arrested ... ? Flying Lessons. We can't make ourselves inoffensive to militant Islamists. ... Our enemies have many grievances — from our support of Israel to our interventions in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Yemen to our laissez-faire attitudes toward women and homosexuals. Nothing we do to appease them will be enough because what they really want is to humiliate, defeat, and dominate us; to force us to live under sharia law, embrace their religion as they interpret it, or suffer the consequences due arrogant infidels. We know this because they tell us. Editor's note: One of the latest high-profile attacks by the Religion of Peace occurred at Fort Hood, Texas. That incident is dicusssed on this page. Major Hasan and the Quran. Maj. Nidal Hasan's lawyer is considering an insanity plea as a strategy for his client. That might be the only legal option available to the man accused of the shooting rampage at Fort Hood. But Nidal Hasan should also consider a religious option: repentance. "Don't Say We're Violent, Or We'll Kill You". That has been the message of Islamic extremists on a number of occasions, e.g. the Mohammed cartoons. An extreme case occurred recently when the proprietor of the web site Religion of Peace received a death threat from members of the religion of peace. Minarets and the Concept of Reciprocity. The Islamic world does not allow new synagogues or churches to be built. Either at all — or without great difficulty. Further: Muslim fundamentalists currently persecute, torture, and murder those Christians who dare remain in the Middle East, and they kidnap, forcibly convert, and "marry" their very young daughters. Radical Islam's Defiling of Christmas. Today, while Christians around the world are celebrating Christmas, radical Muslims will be gathering in Atlanta, Georgia for the beginning of their annual hatefest. The irony of this cannot be understated, as the group sponsoring the event, ICNA, and its followers openly denounce Christians and propagate material cursing and calling for violence against Christians. Islam Bashers Repent. Claiming "Islam" means "peace" is fraudulent to begin with. Islam is an Arabic word. And the word for peace in Arabic is "solh," and not Islam. Islam is derived from the root word "taslim," which means submission or surrender. Hence, Islam's true name, surrender, is in fact most descriptive of what it is: total, unconditional submission and surrender of the individual and the community to the will and dictates of Allah as revealed by his "rasool," messenger, Muhammad. CAIR's Strategy of Deception: Sharia law covers every minute of every day of a person's life in Islam. Of course there are many peaceful aspects of Sharia, but as the 17 year old Rifqa Bary and many others have tried to inform people, Sharia law also has many violent aspects which can no longer be ignored. Sharia law is an all or nothing. A Muslim can't decide (and be in conformance with Islamic law) that they want to abide by some aspects and ignore other aspects such as death for apostasy or calling for hatred and violence against Christians and Jews. Should General George Casey Resign? [Scroll down] Currently, one of the greatest threats to America is Islamic terrorism. We must accept that Islam at its core is not a religion of peace; while at the same time, acknowledging that many Muslims practice their faith in a peaceful way. Many good people in the country and Army call themselves Muslims. So far as the United States military is concerned it's a matter of allegiance. Does Islam Breed Violence? Here is the truth, as bitter as it may be: Islam is the culprit. Islam is anything but a religion of peace. Violence is at the very core of Islam. Violence is institutionalized in the Muslims' holy book, the Quran, in many suras... Al Qaeda Magazine Encourages "Lone" Wolf Attacks on Western Infrastructure and Public Figures. As exposed by Reuters, al Qaeda recently called on followers to carry out attacks in (and on) the West. In its online magazine Sada al-Malahem the terrorist group specifically encouraged Islamists to create homemade bombs with materials that already exist in their "mother's kitchen." Taliban promises repeat of Fort Hood massacre: report. The Taliban claimed there would be more attacks like the Fort Hood shootings unless Washington ends it policies in Afghanistan and Iraq, according to a report. It also described the US army psychiatrist who carried out the massacre in Texas as a "hero". the SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors jihadist websites, said it had picked up a Taliban message praising the attack. Detroit imam killed in shootout with FBI. The slain Detroit imam called his followers to violence and wanted to establish a separate Islamic state within the US, according to a federal complaint. "Backlash" After Dallas Jihad Terror Plot? Late in September, a Muslim named Hosam Maher Husein Smadi, was arrested after placing an inert car bomb at a 60-story office tower in downtown Dallas. In March 2009, according to his indictment in U.S. District Court, Smadi declared his intention to wage war in the name of Islam. Yet characteristically, if dispiritingly, Muslims in the Dallas area are now expressing fears of a "backlash," rather than taking the hard steps necessary to make sure there are no more jihad plotters who are inspired by Islamic teachings, as was Hosam Smadi. Obama Sets Punt Formation. Under Taliban rule, strict Sharia law was enforced by thuggish "morality police". The Taliban cut off hands and heads, flogged people for dancing, kite flying or listening to music. They oppress and beat their women and kill Jews for sport and Christians just for the [heck] of it. They have vowed to kill other NATO forces in retaliation, the moment we turn our backs and they would surely lop the heads off of any Afghans who had connections to US or NATO forces. Is Islam inherently violent? It's the secret question in official Washington, D.C., in the Pentagon, and in the White House. It's the question that is so radioactive that most in government and the press dare not even pose it, let alone answer it: Is Islam inherently violent and expansionist? The Naiveté of Barack Hussein Obama. [Scroll down] It wasn't just the applause that was significant -- but the deadly silence at other statements that the president made. Obama was cheered loudly when he said, "The United States does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlements. This construction violates previous agreements and undermines efforts to achieve peace. It's time for these settlements to stop." But the silence was deafening when the president called on the Palestinians to renounce violence. The references to rockets being fired into Israel and old women being blown up on buses was met with absolutely no reaction from the audience. Celebrating Hate in the Name of Multiculturalism. There is no question that Great Britain has been struggling with an internal Islamist problem for quite some time. The former imam of London's Finsbury Park Mosque was the one-eyed, hook-handed Abu Hamza al-Masri, by turns a host to figures as friendly to civilization as Richard Reid, the "Shoe Bomber," and Zacarias Moussaoui, the "20th hijacker" on 9/11. London's own grim day of domestic terrorism, July 7, 2005, was orchestrated by the sons of Asian immigrants — one of whom, it was later disclosed, was under the messianic spell of Hamza. Eight years after 9/11, where's the Islamophobia? The dust hadn't settled from the trade towers before it was pronounced from sea to shining sea that Islam was a religion of peace, and that Islamophobia was sure to run rampant in the streets, a sin we were all warned to guard against. But like global warming, which has as yet failed to materialize in spite of so much fervent belief in its coming, Islamophobia never actually took root. The Straight Poop On Radical Islam. I suspect that because George Bush and Condoleezza Rice were so respectful of Muslims, constantly telling us that theirs is a religion of peace, some otherwise sensible Americans actually began to believe it. ... The Islamists have been actively at war with us for 30 years and generally at war with western civilization for well over a thousand years, and still we pay lip service to these people in a way we never did with Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan or the Soviet Union. Muslims Persecute Christians. On Saturday [8/1/2009], a frenzied mob of three thousand Muslims stormed the tiny Pakistani Christian village of Gojra. Enflamed by (unconfirmed) charges that a Christian had burned pages of the Qur'an, the mob burned down fifty homes, burned eight Christians alive, and wounded twenty others. Thousands of Christians fled the area. Last Thursday, enraged by the same report of blasphemy, another Muslim mob torched seventy-five Christian homes, along with two churches, in Koriyan, a village near Gojra. Eight Christians burnt to death in Pakistan after Koran is 'defiled'. The mob opened fire indiscriminately, threw petrol bombs and looted houses as thousands of frightened Christians ran for safety. "They were shouting anti-Christian slogans and attacked our houses," Rafiq Masih, a resident of the predominantly Christian colony, said. Residents said that police stood aside while the mob went on the rampage. "We kept begging for protection, but police did not take action," Mr Masih said. Iran: Not a Theocracy but a Thugocracy. The mullahs are not insisting that Ahmadinejad stay in power whether or not he got most of the votes. They are saying — and they are saying not only to the world, but to the Shiite Moslem citizens of Iran — that Ahmadinejad actually got most of the votes. In other words, these representatives of pure Islam are lying to other Moslems — Moslems who are their fellow countrymen — about who won the election. Islam does not only prohibit lying to other Moslems, it also condemns it. Stealing is savagely punished. The mullahs are stealing votes. They are lying to those they pretend to protect. Taliban buying children for suicide bombers. Pakistan's top Taliban leader, Baitullah Mehsud, is buying children as young as 7 to serve as suicide bombers in the growing spate of attacks against Pakistani, Afghan and U.S. targets, U.S. Defense Department and Pakistani officials say. A Pakistani official, who spoke on the condition that he not be named because of the sensitive nature of the topic, said the going price for child bombers was $7,000 to $14,000 — huge sums in Pakistan, where per-capita income is about $2,600 a year. The new jihadi menu — eat your kill. If anyone ever doubted the West faces sheer insanity in the fight against the most extreme of the Muslim extremists, consider a discussion that recently erupted on a jihadist Web site based on the writings of one of al Qaeda's leading theorists. The thrust of the debate was that Muslim fighters may be justified in cannibalizing U.S. soldiers if they find themselves with nothing else to eat. The Price Tag of Modern Liberalism: For militant Islam, the West is ripe for the plucking. Whether we are dealing with the sly, insinuating eloquence of Tariq Ramadan, whose project is the gradual permeation of Islamic culture into the center of the Western public space, or the agonistic declamations of Dyab Abu Jahjah, who defines assimilation as "cultural rape," the difference is the same: the message is that of Islamic supremacy. Obama quotes verse 5:32, omits 5:33. The supposedly noble sentiments of the first verse, taken from a Jewish source, are entirely undercut by the second verse, which becomes a bloodthirsty menacing by Muhammad of the Jews. (And as an aside the Muslim sources estimate Muhammad killed 24,000 Jews in his jihad campaigns against them). Far from abjuring violence, these verses aggressively insist that any who oppose the Muslim prophet will be killed, or crucified, mutilated, and banished. If Islam is the Religion of Peace, Why Do They Have to Keep Reminding Us? When we read the headline in a May 21st New York Times story — "4 Accused of Bombing Plot at Bronx Synagogues" — it was ho-hum stuff. It wasn't exactly a revelation when The Times informed us, in the 9th paragraph, "They are all Muslims, a law enforcement official said" — just in case you thought the conspiracy involved Episcopalians, Rotarians or the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. If you hear about a hijacking, suicide bombing, sniper attack or the beheading of a hostage anywhere in the world, your first reaction is: a Muslim did it. Why? Because 9 times out of 10 a Muslim did do it. Christian Man Raped, Murdered for Refusing to Convert to Islam, Family Says. A young Christian man was raped and brutally murdered in Pakistan for refusing to convert to Islam, and police are doing nothing about it, the victim's brother and minister told FOXNews.com. Somalis watch double amputations. Hardline Islamists in Somalia have carried out double amputations on four men for stealing phones and guns. They have each had a hand and foot cut off after being convicted by a Sharia court in the capital earlier this week. Let's All Accept Islam. When Muslims start protesting the murders and indecencies performed in the name of Islam then I will accept them. We are told that the people who do these acts are a small minority of Muslims. So where are the protests, where are the books, where are the articles, where is the Islamic Pete Seeger? If Islam is really a religion of peace, then start showing it. We have been waiting for it and the memories I have are of Muslims out partying after the Twin Towers went down. Mr. Obama, it is nice that you want us to accept Islam, but would you have asked us to accept Nazism or Communism with their mass murders and mistreatment of people? Obama Throws Muslim Women Under the Bus. Let's face it: The Islamic face-veil and headscarf have become symbols of "jihad" and Islamic religious apartheid or intolerance in the West. And, it is spooky, even frightening to see women, (or are they men?), face-veiled or wearing full-body shrouds. Masked people, hooded people, have cut themselves off from human contact; they can see you, but you can't see them. You cannot see their expressions in response to what you are saying. I would not want to appear before a masked judge, study with a masked teacher, hire a masked lawyer, etc. Would you? Media Takes Whitewashing of Islam to a Whole New Level. [Scroll down] The butchering of Theo van Gogh, and the current lifestyles of people like Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Geert Wilders, Robert Redeker, and Fianna Nirenstein — who must be accompanied everywhere they go by armed bodyguards — show that some of Islam's critics have to go to a good deal of trouble to stay alive. Misunderstanding Islam? It is an unquestioned dogma of American policymakers and the mainstream media that Islamic jihadists have twisted and hijacked the authentic, peaceful teachings of Islam, and are motivated not by Islamic imperatives but by poverty exacerbated by ignorance and other factors. Yet from the words of the Islamic jihadists themselves, one gets just the opposite impression: recent statements by a variety of Islamic jihadists reinforce the fact that jihadists gain recruits and justify their actions within the larger Islamic community by claiming for themselves the mantle of Islamic authenticity. A History of Muslim Terrorism against Jews in the United States . The arrest yesterday [5/20/2009] of four would-be jihadis before they could attack two synagogues in New York City brings to mind a long list of terrorist assaults in the United States by Muslims on Jews. These began in 1977 and have continued regularly since... Security vs. liberty. Putting furry caterpillars in terrorists' cells doesn't rank very high on the list of history's greatest war crimes. The idea that use of waterboarding increases the vulnerability of our troops who might be captured is even sillier. The kind of people who ram airliners into skyscrapers to kill thousands of innocent civilians and who behead hostages on video don't need additional excuses to torture infidels. They do it for fun. The Myth of the Moderate Taliban. Primitive, with no history of accommodation except with other dangerous radicals, consumed with hatred of moderate and pluralistic Muslims as well as the West, and reaching for Pakistan's nuke -- the Taliban may bring about the worst chapter of atrocities in recent Islamic history. Islamist Hate Exposed By Traditional Values Coalition. The Islamic Saudi Academy (ISA) in Fairfax, Va. went before the local planning commission Wednesday night to seek an expansion of their controversial and secretive school funded and controlled by the Saudi government. A large group of residents near the school asked the Traditional Values Coalition (TVC) for help in organizing and strategizing against the expansion, which has seen raids by local police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation and used anti-Christian, anti-Semitic and anti-American textbooks. Schoolgirls Poison-Gassed in Afghanistan and Honor-Murdered in Sweden. Yesterday [5/12/2009] in Charikar, Afghanistan, for the second time in two weeks, 50 innocent schoolgirls were poison-gassed at school and had to be hospitalized. ... Such attacks on Afghan girls schools have escalated within the past year. However, this barbaric, Taliban mentality is alive and well among some Afghan immigrants in the West. Muslim extremist firebombed home of man who published book on Prophet Mohammed. A Muslim extremist has been found guilty of firebombing the home of the publisher of a controversial novel about the Prophet Mohammed and his child bride. Taliban threatens Pakistani singers and actors with death. Taliban militants are forcing singers and actors to join radical preaching groups in Pakistan or face death. Minister beaten after clashing with Muslims on his TV show. A Christian minister who has had heated arguments with Muslims on his TV Gospel show has been brutally attacked by three men who ripped off his cross and warned: 'If you go back to the studio, we'll break your legs.' Gang walk free after racist rampage. A gang who screamed racist abuse as they went on a violent rampage through Southampton city centre have escaped immediate jail terms. Seven men were part of the group who left bystanders unconscious and bleeding. They assaulted seven people during their drink and drug fuelled attacks, yet only one was jailed for drug offences. One even waved a knife in the face of two terrified women shouting: "I'm from Afghanistan, I'm a Muslim. I'm going to stab every white person." Jihadists celebrating Victoria fires; taking joy in the scenes. Jihadists are celebrating the worst tragedy in Victoria's history. Terror watchdogs said fundamentalists had blogged on websites across the globe, applauding the lives lost and destruction in the Victoria fires. Senior analyst at SITE Intelligence Group Adam Raisman said they were posting pictures of burnt homes and devastated victims and "taking joy in the scenes", the Sunday Herald Sun reports. Camera-Ready Victims. Hamas has perfected a kind of camera-ready human sacrifice — placing its launchers in playgrounds, hospitals, and neighborhoods crowded with mothers and children. Every innocent human life lost is a tragedy and a horror. But to watch the news in Brussels or Boston and certainly in Islamabad or Caracas, you will get the distorted impression that the Palestinian plight is the worst on earth — an impression that is reinforced almost daily by the United Nations. Is Islam a Violent Faith? There are more than one billion Muslims around the world, and I'm one of them. We are told that the Koran is the "word of God". When you read the Koran, however, — which over 90% of all Muslims have never read, according to a survey by Bielefeld University in Germany, and if they ever do, either they do not understand its archaic language, or they do not ponder on what it says — you find out that it is full of passages that incite to hatred, killing, and discriminate against women. Land Of The Free Speakers. Salman Rushdie was our canary in the coal mine: He first felt the effects of suffocating gasses that would start to envelope (sic) us all. Rushdie's fourth novel, The Satanic Verses, published in late 1988 when he was living in Britain, was seen as blasphemous by some Muslims. Feb. 14 will mark 20 years since Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini sent the author a bloody Valentine, issuing a religious decree calling for his death. ... Two decades later I'm struck by how encroaching this story has become. Preserving 'Harmony' for Islamic Radicals. [Geert] Wilders is a lightning rod. In the great tradition of the Enlightenment, and to the consternation of post-sovereign Europe, he faithfully reports what his senses perceive. When he studies the Koran, he finds exhortations to violence. When he reads Allah's command in Sura 9:5 that "when the sacred months have passed," Muslims must "slay the idolaters wherever ye find them," he entertains the outlandish idea that this means what it plainly says, and is understood by many Muslims as doing so. Muslim Fanatics Hijack British Prison. Muslim prisoners have launched a reign of terror inside a top security British jail. The fanatics are forcing fellow inmates to convert to Islam or face punishment beatings. One man who stood up to the thugs was branded with a lump of hot metal, according to a prison source. The crisis at Whitemoor jail in Cambridgeshire has led to calls by staff for the 100 Muslim inmates there to be dispersed to other prisons round the country. Five Big Lies Muslims Tell: (#4) They proclaim that Islam is a religion of peace, when Islam was established by the edge of the sword; when Muslims are involved in almost every war on the planet; and when Muslims introduced terrorism as we know it today to the world, and are responsible for almost all terrorist attacks in the world. You Must Remember This. "We are in the process of an historical war between the World of Arrogance and the Islamic world," Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has declared, "and this war has been going on for hundreds of years." "We are not fighting so that you will offer us something," said Hussein Massawi, a former leader of Hezbollah. "We are fighting to eliminate you." "Rome will become an advanced post for the Islamic conquests, which will spread though Europe in its entirety, and then will turn to the two Americas, even Eastern Europe," Yunis al-Astal, a Muslim cleric and Hamas parliamentarian has pledged. Barack Obama and Slavery: Islam's connection with slavery starts with Mohammed. The exact details of how slaves are taken are described in detail in the Sira, Mohammed's biography. ... Everything he did is the perfect pattern of behavior for all Muslims. Mohammed was involved in every single aspect and detail of slavery. He bought and sold slaves both retail and wholesale. He gave them as gifts, used them for sex, received them as gifts, stood by as slaves were beaten, attacked. He enslaved tribes, and owned black slaves. Indeed, his rise to political success was financed, in part, by the profit of his slave trade. Are Muslims really turning against the cult of the suicide bomber? [Scroll down] So will Osama be feeling the squeeze of moderate Muslim opinion? Will he and other Islamist leaders be holding policy review and consider abandoning suicide-bombing campaigns? Or, given the evidence of 1400-year long aggression against non-Muslims, does the media's sense of hope tell us more about the on-going denial of the Western mindset when it comes to the Jihadist concept of 'perpetual war'? The Decline and Fall of Islam: Islam has literally been at war with all other religions since its inception. It looks at the world as being divided between Islam and the world of the infidel, the unbeliever, the world of war. … Mohammed said, "The sword is the key to Heaven and Hell." By contrast, six hundred years earlier, Jesus said, "He who lives by the sword shall perish by the sword." British aid worker shot dead in Afghanistan for 'preaching Christianity'. Gayle Williams, who had been in the troubled country for three years, was killed by two gunmen on a motorcycle as she walked to work in the capital of Kabul. She recently moved from Kandahar back to Kabul because it was seen as safer. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the shooting, which took place at 8am local time. Saudi OKs Killing "Immoral" TV Execs. Saudi Arabia's top judiciary official has issued a religious decree saying it is permissible to kill the owners of satellite TV networks that broadcast immoral content. The 79-year-old Sheik Saleh al-Lihedan said Thursday that satellite channels cause the "deviance of thousands of people." One third of Muslim students back killings. Almost a third of British Muslim students believe killing in the name of Islam can be justified, according to a poll. The study also found that two in five Muslims at university support the incorporation of Islamic sharia codes into British law. Islam group urges forest fire jihad. Australia has been singled out as a target for "forest jihad" by a group of Islamic extremists urging Muslims to deliberately light bushfires as a weapon of terror. 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". Islamic 'Bugs Bunny' programme 'spreads extremism'. An Islamic television station is using a Bugs Bunny lookalike in a programme for children, who vote whether to chop off his hands when he breaches Sharia law. Assud the rabbit vows to "kill and eat Jews" and glorifies the maiming of "infidels" on the Palestinian children's show Tomorrow's Pioneers. Dalai Lama defends Islam as peaceful religion. The Dalai Lama said Sunday that "it's totally wrong, unfair" to call Islam a violent religion. The Tibetan spiritual leader, appearing at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania, offered a defense of Islam in response to a question about the rise of violent religious fundamentalism. He added that he has made a point of reaching out to Muslims since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. The Editor says... As far as I know, there's only one religion that is known for "violent religious fundamentalism," and that is Islam. Baptists and Catholics don't hijack planes and fly them into office buildings. Lutherans and Presbyterians don't make people nervous at the airport. Suicide bombers follow Quran, concludes Pentagon briefing. With suicide bombings spreading from Iraq to Afghanistan, the Pentagon has tasked intelligence analysts to pinpoint what's driving Muslim after Muslim to do the unthinkable. Their preliminary finding is politically explosive: it's their "holy book" the Quran after all. Love, blackmail and rape — how al-Qaeda grooms women as 'perfect weapons'. A woman pretending to be pregnant walks up to a hospital in one of Iraq's most dangerous regions and blows herself up. Minutes later a man, also laden with explosives, attacks the rescue workers who rushed to the scene in Diyala province, north of Baghdad. Thirty-two people are killed and 52 wounded. Islam's Barbarism is no 'Religion of Peace'. The savages who practice radical Islam continue their march down the road of seventh century barbarism. No other religion in the modern world is so vile, so hate-filled, so violently aggressive in the pursuit of its goals. In Indonesia, the world's largest Islamic state, three Christian teenage girls walking home from school were abducted and beheaded as "Ramadan trophies" by militants who conceived the idea after a visit with fellow jihadists in the Philippines. Jihadism, Liberalism and Perversion: Only Islamic clerics sanction the murder of women who have been raped. Only Islamic clerics issue murderous fatwas, celebrate murder of artists, and mobilize sword-wielding men to demand death for a female teacher who allowed children to name a teddy bear 'Mohammed'. Only Islam proudly exhibits videos of throat-cutters torturing helpless victims. Islam is intrinsically violent, says convert. Italian editor and critic of Islamic extremism Magdi Allam, who converted to Catholicism from Islam and was baptised by Pope Benedict XVI, today branded his former faith as intrinsically violent. "I had to do this (abandon Islam)", Allam wrote in a long letter to the Italian daily Corriere della Sera. "Beyond … the phenomenon of extremists and Islamist terrorism at the global level, the root of evil is inherent to a physiologically violent and historically conflictual Islam," wrote the Egyptian-born journalist, who says he has received death threats and is under police protection. Islamic books justify violence. Textbooks at a private Islamic school in Northern Virginia teach students that it is permissible for Muslims to kill adulterers and converts from Islam, according to a federal investigation released Wednesday [6/11/2008]. Other passages in the school's textbooks state that "the Jews conspired against Islam and its people" and that Muslims are permitted to take the lives and property of those deemed "polytheists." Bomber who struck Canadian troops was 11 years old, military sources say. Military sources say a bomb that wounded two Canadian soldiers near Kandahar on Friday [5/16/2008] was carried by an 11-year-old boy and was detonated by remote control, killing the boy. The two Canadian soldiers were not badly hurt, but the blast also struck two Afghan soldiers patrolling with them, one of whom later died. Terrorists attack Mumbai, November 26, 2008. Clues point to domestic terrorists in India attack. The attack on India's financial capital bears all the trademarks of al-Qaida — simultaneous assaults meant to kill scores of Westerners in iconic buildings — but clues so far point to homegrown Indian terrorists, global intelligence officials said Thursday. They came to kill and maim. At 9:30 pm on Wednesday Parizaad Khan had just picked up her first drink — a fruit juice — at a wedding reception in the Crystal Room on the third floor of the century-old Taj Mahal Palace hotel. For several minutes the partygoers, a mixture of Indians and foreigners, thought that the bangs outside were fireworks. Mumbai attacks. Uncertainty is a key weapon in the armoury of Islamic fundamentalist terror. As investigators, experts and analysts grope for the truth, someone somewhere is taking satisfaction from the horrified confusion the Mumbai attacks have caused. The Mayhem in Mumbai. The attacks targeted the heart of India's financial district, but the shock waves were felt around the globe. Cruel barbarity against us all. The slaughter in Mumbai was a barbaric attack not just on India, but on us. On the West. For the first time in India, Muslim terrorists have singled out Westerners and Jews, and the places they are most likely to visit. Wake-up Call in India. I think the terrible news from India, coupled with intelligence reports of the al-Qaeda desire to do something similar here, may well prompt Obama et al. to think very carefully about repealing the FISA accords, elements of the Patriot Act, immediately closing Guantanamo, and other homeland-security measures. Indian official: Terrorists wanted to kill 5,000. An Indian official said the coordinated terrorist attacks that killed at least 183 people in nine sites across Mumbai this week could have been much worse. "We found bullets with them, hand grenades, bombs," R.R. Patil, deputy chief minister of Maharashtra state, said at a news conference. "Based on our investigation, we believe they had planned to kill 5,000 people." Mumbai sea attack alert came November 19. The most brazen and longest terror attack on India has left several red faces in the government with facts emerging that not only was there advance intelligence about this attack but even the time to have possibly thwarted it. But what happened, instead, was a case of competitive mistrust in the entire security establishment leading to a catastrophic misjudgement. Mumbai terrorists planned to kill 5,000, minister says. Terrorists who attacked Mumbai this week planned to kill 5,000 people, a senior minister said Saturday, according to a news agency report. 'So much of ammunition was found in their possession that it is evident that they had plans to kill 5,000 people,' said Maharashtra state Home Minister RR Patil, quoted by the PTI news agency. Commandos entered dark hotel filled with bodies, gunfire. Inside the blacked-out Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, hallways were littered with bloodied bodies. Terrorists were still holding 200 people 33 hours after the assault began. Knowing next to nothing about what they might encounter in the dark recesses of the hotel, Indian Army commandos decided to go back in -- and were met by terrorists firing mercilessly, throwing grenades and continuously switching positions. The Religion of Peace Strikes Again. The attacks in Mumbai, India are the latest in the 1,400 year history of Islam and yet people continue to express surprise that the alleged religion of peace could harbor so many cold-blooded killers of innocent people. Since 9/11, Muslims have carried out more than 11,000 attacks all in the name of Islam and Muhammad. Americans got a taste of it when 3,000 of their own were mercilessly killed without warning and, I might add, without any better reason than Muhammad's call to "wage war against such of the infidels as are your neighbors." Armed police would not fire back. [Scroll down] But what angered Mr D'Souza almost as much were the masses of armed police hiding in the area who simply refused to shoot back. "There were armed policemen hiding all around the station but none of them did anything," he said. "At one point, I ran up to them and told them to use their weapons. I said, 'Shoot them, they're sitting ducks!' but they just didn't shoot back." The Spread Of Nihilism's Bloody Stain. The terrorist assault on Mumbai is the latest clash between civilization and nihilism. From the Somali pirates to the Taliban, this is what the world would be like without America. 'I was told to kill to my last breath': Captured terrorist's account. The only terrorist captured alive after the Mumbai massacre has given police the first full account of the extraordinary events that led to it -- revealing he was ordered to 'kill until the last breath'. Azam Amir Kasab, 21, from Pakistan, said the attacks were meticulously planned six months ago and were intended to kill 5,000 people. New India in the Crosshairs. Mumbai had been bit in 1993, in car bombs placed at public landmarks (the toll: 257 dead), and in 2006, in bombs targeting the city's commuter trains (183 dead). In the main, these acts of terror victimized ordinary Indians. ... They shot up the Leopold Cafe, a restaurant where foreigners enjoy the cheap beer and food, and held hostages at two luxury hotels, the Taj Mahal and the Oberoi. They searched out Americans and Brits in particular. Together with their attack on a Jewish community center, this meant that they had taken aim at each element of the jihadist's unholy trinity of Americans, Brits, and Jews -- symbols to them of unapologetic Western power and its Zionist spawn. The War Against Civilisation. The atrocities in Mumbai have left reporters and commentators floundering for explanations. ... They are floundering because they still just don't get it. The atrocities demonstrated with crystal clarity what the Islamist war is all about -- and the western commentariat didn't understand because it simply refuses to acknowledge, even now, what that war actually is. It does not arise from particular grievances. It is not rooted in 'despair' over Palestine. It is not a reaction to the war in Iraq. It is a war waged in the name of Islam against America, Britain, Hindus, Jews and all who refuse to submit to Islamic conquest. Mumbai attacks: Jihadists see "invasion" as a triumph. In India, some already call it the "Invasion of Bombay" and their country's 9/11 moment. This is no exaggeration. For, although the deadly raids on India's economic capital did not claim as many lives as 9/11 did in New York, the psychological impact is likely to be as potent. Religious head incited killers. The al-Qa'ida-linked Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorists suspected over the Mumbai massacre were trained in Muzaffarabad, capital of Pakistan-controlled Kashmir, and were incited by speeches from their leader in Lahore. As the sole surviving terrorist was interrogated in Mumbai, security sources told The Australian that 10 terrorists were picked by LET for the suicide mission. Islamic fundamentalists, again. Azam Amir Kasab, 21, from Pakistan, the only terrorist to survive, told India police, these attacks were planned six months ago and were intended to kill 5,000 people. This poor excuse for a human being told authorities "I did right" in referring to the rampage of death he and his terror colleagues committed. It Took Sixty Hours To Kill 10 Terrorists In Mumbai. Ten terrorists, who, according to the findings of the investigation, arrived by rubber raft at the shore of Mumbai carrying machine guns, grenades and dry rations in their luggage, succeeded — almost inconceivably — in keeping almost 1,000 commando troops and counterterror units occupied for three days, in several areas. How Gadgets Helped Mumbai Attackers: The Mumbai terrorists used an array of commercial technologies — from Blackberries to GPS navigators to anonymous e-mail accounts — to pull off their heinous attacks. For years, terrorists and insurgents around the world have used off-the-shelf hardware and software to stay ahead of bigger, better-funded authorities. Worst Terror Attacks Since 9/11. Last week's tragic and deadly terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India, serve, sadly, as just the most recent reminder of the impact global terrorism has had on every continent and nation around the world. While the face of terror often carries a different banner and agenda, the symbolic, emotional and fatal impact it can have on a civilian population is undeniable. From Mumbai to Minneapolis, Why it Will Happen Here. I hope everyone takes a really deep, hard look at what happened last week in Mumbai, India, and at the terrorists who perpetrated the attack. And I hope this is done quickly, with a high degree of intellectual honesty and without the encumbrance of political correctness. The safety of every American, Canadian, Australian, and all Westerners, in fact depends on it, as does the security of our respective nations. Devils in Mumbai. As few as 10 terrorists armed with simple weapons tormented one of the world's most vibrant cities for three days, inflicting 500 casualties — nearly 200 of them dead. No commandeered airliners were involved; no massive bombs, no radioactive material. All it took was one squad of committed-unto-death terrorists with assault rifles, grenades and a few rucksacks filled with explosives. Probing of Doomsday. The Islamic imperialist project is a totalitarian ideology: It is at war with Hindus, Jews, Americans, Britons — everything that is other. In the 10 months before this week's atrocity, Muslim terrorists killed more than 200 people in India and no one paid much attention. Just business as usual, alas. In Bombay, the perpetrators were cannier. They launched a multiple indiscriminate assault on soft targets, and then in the confusion began singling out A-list prey: Not just wealthy Western tourists, but local orthodox Jews and municipal law enforcement. Mumbai terrorists were 'funded by cash raised in UK mosques'. A banned Islamic terrorist group funded with cash raised in British mosques is believed to be behind the Mumbai attacks. Kashmiri separatists Lashkar-e-Taiba, 'The Army of the Righteous', which has strong links to Al Qaeda, is accused of previous terrorist outrages in India. And intercepted telephone and radio communications before and during the latest attacks apparently suggest a link. Off the Table. Islam was born as a religion spread through violence. There is a direct line from the prophet Muhammad to today's Islamic terrorists, whose latest deadly attacks wreaked havoc in Mumbai, India. ... Islamic terrorists always have some kind of excuse for their wanton killings. Usually it starts with the Jews, whom the religious fanatics believe are responsible for every ill befalling Muslims everywhere and thus deserve to die. It was no surprise that a Jewish center in Mumbai was among the prime terrorist targets, with deadly consequences to a rabbi, his wife and other Jews. Whose side are they on? We thought we were safe... then CNN stepped in! A South Wales couple caught in the Mumbai terror attacks claimed last night that CNN put their lives at risk by broadcasting where they were. Lynne and Kenneth Shaw, of Penarth, warned that terrorists were listening in to the media to pinpoint Western victims. Mrs Shaw claimed the American cable TV channel had broadcast details of where they were at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel. Mumbai Massacre: Everyone's Fault? The Islamic terrorists keep telling us that their barbaric massacres and homicide bombings are being done in the name of Islam. Muslim organizations keep insisting that Islam is a religion of peace. Even as civilian blood cries out for justice, or for security, the intelligentsia warn us that Muslims and Islam are not the problem, that American foreign policy and Zionism are the real problem. The Western mainstream media refuse to take the barbarians at their word lest they be accused of "racism" or "Islamophobia." Asia's Islamism engine. Following the terror massacres in Mumbai, Pakistan may now be the single biggest state sponsor of terrorism, beyond even Iran. Yet it has never been listed by the US State Department as a state sponsor ofterrorism. In 1998, according to the 9/11 Commission Report, the State Department's counter-terrorism co-ordinator recommended listing Pakistan as a state sponsor of terrorism. Then [Clinton's] secretary of state Madeleine Albright decided against it, saying it would destroy US influence in Islamabad. And that has been the dilemma of Western policy towards Pakistan ever since. Pakistan 'charity' under suspicion in Mumbai terrorist attacks. Pakistan's pledge to crack down on militants behind the Mumbai attacks may meet an early test with the Islamist "charity" accused by the United States of being the front group for the prime suspects. Washington and India view Jamaat-ud-Dawa as the successor to Lashkar-e-Taiba, the militant organization that India says trained the 10 gunmen who killed 171 people in India's commercial capital last week. The 'charity' that plotted the Mumbai attacks. Wriggling under the illumination of media scrutiny after accusations of its involvement in the slaughter in Mumbai, Jamaat-ud-Dawa's response last week was a workmanlike PR counter-move. Journalists were taken on a guided tour of the organisation's headquarters, 30 miles from Lahore, where a civilised lunch of spiced chicken and rice accompanied declarations of innocence, condemnation of the terrorist attack and claims to be nothing more than a charity group involved in relief work. Terrorists? Not us, guv. Strict Indian Gun Law Aided Mumbai Terrorists in Attack. India's strict gun laws are partly to blame for the success of the terrorist attack in Mumbai, according to the head of an Indian gun rights group and a U.S. expert who has examined the impact of gun laws on crime and terrorism. Investigators find Mumbai link. Pakistani investigators have unearthed substantive links between the gunmen who attacked Mumbai in November and a banned Pakistani Islamist militant group, the Wall Street Journal reported. Ten gunmen killed 179 people in the attack on India's financial hub that India has blamed on the Pakistan-based Islamist group Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) group. The Twenty Biggest Stories Of 2008: (#15) The Mumbai terrorist attacks: Terrorists launched coordinated attacks all across Mumbai, including at the Taj Mahal. During the attacks, which lasted for more than three days, 170 people were killed. It actually sounds like something you'd see at the movies, except there was no Indian Chuck Norris to swoop in and save the day. Handlers on phone ordered Mumbai gunmen to kill. "Keep your phone switched on," a handler instructs a gunman by phone in the midst of the Mumbai siege, "so that we can hear the gunfire." The ruthless commands come from a transcript of phone calls Indian authorities say they intercepted during the attacks in November. India says the men issuing orders, reprimands and encouragement to the young gunmen were Pakistani-based militants directing the attacks by mobile phone. Muslim-only "No-go" zones Bishop warns of no-go zones for non-Muslims. Islamic extremists have created "no-go" areas across Britain where it is too dangerous for non-Muslims to enter, one of the Church of England's most senior bishops warns today. The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester and the Church's only Asian bishop, says that people of a different race or faith face physical attack if they live or work in communities dominated by a strict Muslim ideology. Threats to 'no-go areas' bishop. A bishop who claimed Islamic extremism has turned some communities into no-go areas for non-Muslims has received threats against himself and his family. The Bishop of Rochester, the Right Reverend Dr Michael Nazir-Ali, said last month non-Muslims may find it hard to live or work in some areas. Now he says he has received threats which have been reported to police. You can't preach the Bible here, this is a Muslim area. Two Christian preachers were stopped from handing out Bible extracts by police because they were in a Muslim area, it was claimed yesterday. They say they were told by a Muslim police community support officer that they could not preach there and that attempting to convert Muslims to Christianity was a hate crime. A Muslim Hate Crime is in Your Future. Two Christian preachers were stopped from handing out Bible tracts by police officers because they were in a Muslim neighborhood in England. According to British news reports, the preachers were told by a Muslim community support police officer in Birmingham that attempting to convert Muslims to Christianity is a hate crime. They were warned that if they came back and were beaten up, it would be their fault, not that of the thugs who beat them. Report: Non-Muslims Deserve to Be Punished. A report posted on Islam Watch, a site run by Muslims who oppose intolerant teachings and hatred for unbelievers, exposes a prominent Islamic cleric and lawyer who support extreme punishment for non-Muslims — including killing and rape. Either Allah isn't on their side, or jihadis are just plain useless. So it may well be that the fundamentalists have resorted to that brave and noble tactic of sending the mentally impaired or deeply troubled off to do their dirty work, lacking the resolve and commitment to do so themselves. Al-Qaeda, you may remember, strapped explosives to two women suffering from Down's syndrome and sent them to a market in downtown Baghdad where these walking bombs were detonated remotely, wiping them out together with 91 other people. Teens were trained as suicide bombers, Iraqi army says. The Iraqi military on Monday displayed a group of weeping teenagers who said they had been forced into training for suicide bombings by a Saudi militant in the last urban stronghold of "al-Qaida in Iraq." Four of the six boys were lined up for the media at police headquarters in the northern city of Mosul, where they said they had been training for a month to start suicide operations in early June. 84% of PA Arabs Support Massacre of Jews. The vast majority of PA Arabs support the terror attack on Jerusalem's Merkaz HaRav Yeshiva in which eight students were executed earlier this month, according to a new poll cited in the New York Times on Wednesday. According to the poll, 84 percent of those surveyed "stood behind" the shooting attack. In addition, 64% supported the firing of Kassam rockets at Negev towns. Morbid Celebrations: Palestinians revel in violence. The streets of Gaza were packed with thousands of joyous revelers on Thursday following the terrorist attack at a Jerusalem rabbinical seminary that killed eight people. In mosques throughout Gaza, according to news reports, many residents went to perform the prayers of thanksgiving. Armed men fired machine gun bursts into the air in celebration. Others passed out candies to random passersby on the streets. This is not the first time that large numbers of Palestinians have celebrated bloodshed. A World of Peace — A World Without Militant Islam. Imagine, dear friends, for a moment, the following scenario. Picture a Christian man walking into a Hindu school and opening fire on students as they were learning their holy books. Then imagine that, not only had he murdered eight young students and wounded more than 30, but just try to visualize groups of Christians breaking out in song and dance to celebrate this "brave victory." Let's call a spade a spade here, folks, before this thing comes to haunt all of us across Mother Earth. Yes, it is utterly impossible to do so in the civilized world. The War and the Home Front: Were there any doubt that the global war between the West and the Islamist extremist terrorist enemy rages on, the events of yesterday [3/7/2008] should put it to rest. A Palestinian Arab gunman from eastern Jerusalem shot and killed eight Jewish students — young men studying the Torah — in an exceptionally barbaric attack on an Israeli religious school. The massacre that was greeted with cheers and prayers of thanksgiving in Gaza. Islamists leave Israel no choice. The attack yesterday in Jerusalem on a Jewish religious school in which eight civilians died disclosed important political trends. It showed once more the depths of the divisions within the Palestinian leadership. The Palestinian Authority, under its President Mahmoud Abbas, condemned the attack. On the other hand, Hamas, the Palestinian leadership in the Gaza Strip, praised the attack and Gazan civilians danced in the streets with joy. Palestinian Militants Hail Massacre at Jerusalem Seminary. Hamas Islamists have claimed responsibility for a Jerusalem shooting attack at a Jewish religious school that killed eight people, Reuters reports. Hamas militants cheered over the deadly shooting as thousands of Palestinians took to the streets of Gaza to celebrate Thursday [3/6/2008] amid recent armed conflicts in the Hamas-controlled strip. Islam: Not Just Another Religion. This campaign season, presidential candidates seem intent on battling each other with a war of words over universal healthcare, tax reform, immigration, the war in Iraq, the economy and Biblical literalism. Yet, they have spent few words on and have literally ignored the greatest threat to America and Western civilization since the Cold War: the global jihad. Afghan Radio Station Attacked for Being Un-Islamic; 2 Poppy Police Killed. Arsonists set fire Friday to a radio station near Kabul accused of being un-Islamic, and two poppy eradication policemen were killed in Afghanistan's southwest, officials said.

Al Qaeda's Dentist: London dentist Sohail Qureshi told the police he was just off to celebrate the Muslim festival of Eid with his family in Pakistan. But instead of dental floss and fluoride, Qureshi, 30, tried to board a plane at Heathrow Airport with $18,000 in cash, a night vision scope, two metal batons, terror handbooks, extremist material, military information on CDs and medical supplies. Worshippers of Death: Zahra Maladan is an educated woman who edits a women's magazine in Lebanon. She is also a mother, who undoubtedly loves her son. She has ambitions for him, but they are different from those of most mothers in the West. She wants her son to become a suicide bomber. Man Butchers 15-Month-Old Nephew in Jeddah Supermarket. Early morning shoppers at a supermarket in Jeddah were left reeling yesterday [3/2/2008], with some falling unconscious, after a well-built Syrian man clinched a knife and decapitated his 15-month-old nephew in front of his mother in the store's fruit and vegetable section. Imam's daughter in hiding after her conversion to Christianity sparked death threats. The daughter of a British imam is living under police protection after receiving death threats from her father for converting to Christianity. The 31-year-old, whose father is the leader of a mosque in Lancashire, has moved house an astonishing 45 times after relatives pledged to hunt her down and kill her. Kids used as decoys in car bomb, U.S. says. Insurgents detonated a car bomb with two children in it after using the children as decoys to get through a military checkpoint in Baghdad, a U.S. general said Tuesday.

It said that the building was believed to house al-Qaeda fighters and accused the terrorists of using children as human shields. Jihad this! I no longer accept that we are only at war with Islamic fascists or Islamic fundamentalists or whatever the heck we're calling them this week. I believe that we in the West are at war with Islam, period. I have heard any number of politicians, up to and including President Bush, claim, contrary to all reason and evidence, that Islam is a religion of peace. If you buy that load of malarkey, I've got a Brooklyn mosque I'd like to sell you. There is no defence against these children of death. We are deep inside intelligence headquarters in Kabul. On the faded sofa opposite is an extraordinary new weapon — a 17-year-old Pakistani peasant boy called Farman Ullah. He is the world's first remotely detonated human bomb. Palestinian Authority Cartoon Prays That Allah Will Kill Americans. A cartoon published Tuesday [10/9/2007] in an official Palestinian Authority newspaper shows a Muslim man calling on Allah to kill Americans, said a group that monitors Palestinian media. Palestinian Media Watch, an independent research group, said the cartoon shows the Muslim man kneeling before a U.S. fighter jet. His prayers are enclosed in four missiles aimed at the American plane. The dangers of tolerance. In the same week Farzana Hassan was threatened with death, Quebec's chief electoral officer said Muslim women who wear the niqab would not have to show their faces to confirm their identities at the ballot box. So, what do those two disparate events have in common? Hassan sees such "concessions" to fundamentalist factions of Islam as fuel that emboldens those who endanger her life, her freedom and that of other women. The religion of peace — at gunpoint. You need a scorecard to keep up with all the region's disaffected. Apparently, when three or more angry Muslims gather in a garage, a new jihadist group is born. What's perfectly clear is that video is the new weapon of mass destruction. A billion people manipulated into religious frenzy is a formidable force. It is also clear that the West's continued existence — at least from the perspective of Islamist militants — depends upon our willingness to bow to Islam. Islamic Prejudice: Christians. Traditional Islamic law mandates the death penalty for Muslims who leave Islam, in accordance with Muhammad's command: "Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him." This is still the position of all the schools of Islamic jurisprudence, although there is some disagreement over whether the law applies only to men, or to women also. Saudi Squander: Where does all the money go? Of the more than 1,200 mosques in America, more than 80-percent were built with Saudi money, according to author RezaF. Safa (Inside Islam). In fact, Safa writes that the Saudis have spent "$87 billion since 1973 to spread Islam throughout the United States and the Western hemisphere." Elsewhere in the world, it is believed that Saudi Arabia finances some 85 percent of the world's mosques, where the vitriolic and violent Wahabbist interpretation of Islam is taught. It is indisputable that the current hatred of the United States and the ideology of Islamist violence are reinforced via these mosques. In Search Of The "Peace-Loving Muslims" — Again. What is it with the combination of being a medical doctor and a "Muslim? That's a very legitimate question to ask, in light of a certain event that unfolded at the end of last week in Virginia. Dr. Esam Omeish, who in addition to being an "M.D." was, up until last Thursday, a member of the Virginia State Commission on Immigration. He also happens to be president of the Muslim American Society. Three Bible publishers killed. Attackers on Wednesday [4/18/2007] slit the throats of three people in a Turkish publishing house that printed Bibles, the latest attack on minorities in mainly Muslim Turkey, said officials.

Stoned to death for loving the wrong boy. A 17-year-old girl has been stoned to death in Iraq because she loved a teenage boy of the wrong religion. Tied up, blindfolded, waiting to die: the truth about the hostages' ordeal. Blindfolded and lined up against a concrete wall with their hands tied behind their backs, the British marines and sailors heard the sound of weapons being cocked. One of them dropped to the floor screaming, "They are going to execute us." Another could be heard throwing up. Fighting back was simply not an option'. The British captives held by Iranian Revolutionary Guardsmen described yesterday how they were bound, blindfolded and lined up against a wall while weapons were cocked behind them. Defending themselves against suggestions that they surrendered too readily and were too eager to cooperate with their captors, they said that they had feared the worst and that fighting back was simply not an option. Mixed signals: Although his critics accused the president of misrepresentation, it was they who engaged in such a practice. For example, CAIR falsely charged he had "equated the religion of peace [Islam] with the ugliness of fascism." In fact, Mr. Bush did something altogether different — and laudable: He made clear that those who use Islam to justify and provide political cover for their totalitarian aggression are at odds not only with America but with Islam, itself. Such dangerous ideologues cannot be appeased. They must be destroyed. 'Islamofascism': The word has … caught on, not least because it provides a convenient way of announcing that you are not against Islam but only against its perversion by the terrorists. But this prompts the question whether terrorism is really as alien to Islam as we should all like to believe. The gap between Islam and peace. The experts tell us militant Islamic fundamentalists, or "Islamists," represent a narrow, if murderous, fringe. They number no more than 10, maybe 15, percent of all Muslims. That estimate works out to somewhere between 100 million and 150 million people. Which is a lot of murderous fringe. The Editor says... The other 85 percent are keeping a low profile for now, but they'll gladly join the winning team if Islamism gains momentum. Muslim pupils kill teacher. Muslim pupils at a secondary school in northeastern Nigeria beat a teacher to death today after accusing her of desecrating the Koran. Oluwatoyin Olusase, a Christian, was adjudicating an Islamic Religious Knowledge exam at the school in Gombe state when the incident occurred. Man gets 30 years for ripping out wife's eyes. A man who ripped out his wife's eyes in a fit of rage was sentenced by a French court to 30 years behind bars on Tuesday. Mohamed Hadfi, 31, tore out his 23-year-old wife Samira Bari's eyes following a heated argument in their apartment in the southern French city of Nimes in July 2003 after she refused to have sex with him. World War III. The American people and free people everywhere must come to grips with the fact that radical Islamists and the countries that back them are already engaged in a global war to defeat us. The attacks against the U.S. and other nations are all connected to one source … radical Islamists intent on initiating a new Golden Age of Islam. Which leads to my second point, that it is imperative that the American people and especially our leaders, understand that Islam is not a religion of peace. We should not tolerate the preachers of jihad. It is a war fought with planes crashed into buildings or blown up in mid-air, roadside bombs, kidnappings, beheadings and other unspeakable instruments of terror. It is decentralised but global in scope, from madrassas in Pakistan, to mosques in London, to "charities" in America, to banks and boardrooms in the Middle East. It is a war with a cultural and ideological component that is lavishly financed by easy oil money from states like Saudi Arabia that we have long (and foolishly) regarded as "moderates" and "friends". The rise of the caliphate. Thanks to a steady flow of petro-dollars, today's leaders of "the religion of peace" — both Sunni and Shia — have been able to launch and sustain well-financed, extremely aggressive campaigns to advance their beliefs. Sheiks, imams, mullahs and ayatollahs routinely expound the virtues of "martyrdom" and vicious treatment for Christians and Jews. The "common ground" for all Islamic radicals is hatred of the United States and Israel. Terrorism threat is here to stay. A broad and deep coalition of Islamic extremists is determined to murder very large numbers of Americans, Westerners, Christians, Jews and — let us not forget — insufficiently committed Muslims. … Those whom Bush now calls Islamic fascists have been killing Americans for decades. Al-Qaeda declared war on America when Bush was still in Texas. Why Islam is the new Marx. The 20th century saw the demise of communism, despite its attraction to millions of people who felt poor or downtrodden. It was exposed as a totalitarian system that stifled the aspirations of man. But its stain is spreading within the casing of Islamic fundamentalism. Beyond wishful thinking about Islam. Now that three years and three months have passed since nearly 3,000 died on a day that will live in infamy, the hills are alive with the sound of positive musings about Islam. Publisher's Weekly has reported that many new books on the religion are hitting the stores, with most assuring readers that Islam is a religion of peace. Islamofascism — an enemy like no other. "If other people in al Qaeda are really as sadistic as this guy seems to be, then we're really in for a long and awful war." National Public Radio's Daniel Schorr made this comment about the anti-American courtroom tirade of Zacarias Moussaoui, the so-called 20th hijacker. Yes, Mr. Schorr, the Islamofascists — the ones who want us dead — are, indeed, that "sadistic." This shows that a lot of people, who should know better, still don't get it. When Muslims kill Muslims: When it comes to maiming and killing, the Arab-Muslim world holds a place of prominence. In particular, the ancient land between two rivers, now Iraq, has proven to be greatly fertile as killing fields. Beauty pageants can be murder: Inasmuch as liberals are demanding that Americans ritualistically proclaim, "Islam is a religion of peace," Muslims might do their part by not killing people all the time. Recently, the Religion of Peace suffered a PR setback when Muslims in Nigeria welcomed the Miss World beauty pageant by slaughtering Christians in the street and burning churches to the ground. At last count, more than 200 people were dead, hundreds more were injured and thousands were left without homes. The battle over Islam: Islam now stands at a crossroads. And the burden rests on the majority who call Islam a "religion of peace" to show us what they mean. By the Word or by the Sword: President has gone out of his way to assure Americans that they have nothing to fear from the religion of Islam. "These acts of violence against innocents," declared President Bush, "violate the fundamental tenets of the Islamic faith." Is the President right? Is Islam fundamentally a peaceful religion? Why not say it bluntly? Islam is an aggressive, violent political ideology. It may be that Islam in its true form is as gentle as a lamb. But in the real world, it is an aggressive, violent political ideology. It may also be that a majority of U.S. Muslims object to the jihad being waged against infidel Christians, Jews, Hindus, atheists, agnostics and democrats of all denominations. But if so, they are keeping it to themselves. Islam is a religion of WHAT?. Standing on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn, on the afternoon of September 11, 2001, … the residents of the neighborhood danced in the streets, laughing, shouting to each other, shaking hands. These people were not what one would suppose to be fanatical or militant Muslims. … They were American citizens however, who were expressing their judgment — joy at the events of that horrible day that forever changed our world and America's place in that world. They were also the followers of Islam: religion of oppression, discrimination, violence, terror, war, superstition, intolerance and prejudice. What you need to know about the 'religion of peace'. There are millions of peaceful Muslims … but the fact is that radical Muslims are using core texts of Islam that are deeply rooted in Islamic theology, tradition, history and law to justify their actions, and those radical Muslims are able to recruit and motivate terrorists around the world by appealing to these core Islamic texts. What you need to know about the 'religion of peace', Part II. A recent poll in the Palestinian Authority indicated that 71 percent [of Muslims] approved of suicide attacks against civilians in Israel. Noncombatants are not to be targeted … but if they are considered to be aiding in the war effort, then they can legitimately be fought. This is the justification that Osama bin Laden used for 9/11, and the Palestinians use for suicide bombing attacks in Israel. Religion Of Peace? In the wake of the cartoon jihad and mosque-on-mosque violence in Iraq, most Americans now think Islam has more violent believers than any other faith. Yet many still view it as a "peaceful religion." Psychologists might call this cognitive dissonance — a state of mind where rational people essentially lie to themselves. But in this case, it's understandable. In our politically correct culture, criticizing any religion, even one that plots our destruction, is still taboo. And no one wants to suggest the terrorists are driven by their holy text. Dear Muslims: What is It that You Don't Understand? We, the non-Muslims — the infidels, heathens, unbelievers, apostates, enemies of Allah, najis (soiled), as you prefer to call us — would like to know what is it that you don't understand and what is it that makes you behave so badly toward us? You blame us for your problems and believe if we embrace Islam and help establish the Islamic ummah, the earth would be cleansed of us, transformed to paradise, and all your problems disappear? What A Muslim Really Wants: The most comprehensive survey of attitudes toward terrorism in the Islamic world (over 9,000 respondents in nine Muslim countries were polled by Gallup in 2002) showed entrenched anti-Americanism, seething rage and a total disconnect from reality. Only 19% of those surveyed believed the 9/11 hijackers were Arabs. Evil across our planet: More than 4,000 people have died as Islamic terrorism has spread across the world over the last decade. Islam, a Religion of Peace — or of Violence? Instantly after the atrocities of 9/11 our president George Bush sought out the head imam in Washington. He took the podium with him to proclaim, and to ensure one and all, that "Islam is a religion of peace." … Our president is grievously mistaken. Islam is not a religion of peace, but a religion of violence. Five questions non-Muslims would like answered. [Question #4] Why are so many atrocities committed and threatened by Muslims in the name of Islam? Young girls in Indonesia were recently beheaded by Muslim murderers. Last year, Muslims — in the name of Islam — murdered hundreds of schoolchildren in Russia. While reciting Muslim prayers, Islamic terrorists take foreigners working to make Iraq free and slaughter them. Muslim daughters are murdered by their own families in the thousands in "honor killings." And the Muslim government in Iran has publicly called for the extermination of Israel. What right have Muslims to claim moral superiority? The West is not free from sin. But what sets this type of murder apart is that the perpetrators believe that what they are doing is morally justified. In another (dis)honour killing in 2001, Faqir Mohammed stabbed his daughter 20 times in the head and stomach. He told police: "According to the law it was not right, but according to religion it was right." Hawking hell. As T. S. Eliot once observed, "No culture can appear or develop except in relation to a religion." And fundamentalist Islam remains the creed of Afghanistan. The Taliban was not a foreign pathogen, but a malignancy naturally arising from within that state. 'Peaceful' PA official praises suicide bombers. Speech in Arabic language belies his pronouncements in English. Hamas defends suicide blast. Monday's suicide bombing in Tel Aviv [4/17/2006], which killed seven people, was a part of the Palestinian right to self-defence, a spokesperson for the ruling Hamas party said in Gaza. Islamic terrorists shot aid couple as they watched TV. A husband and wife who dedicated their lives to helping African children were murdered in cold blood by Islamic terrorists, an inquest heard yesterday. Dick and Enid Eyeington were watching television at their home in Somaliland when a terrorist linked to al-Qaeda shot them. The couple were considered "infidels" by their attackers, who wrongly believed that they were trying to convert Africans to Christianity. A religion of peace? Really? Western Muslims' Racist Rape Spree. In Australia, Norway, Sweden and other Western nations, there is a distinct race-based crime in motion being ignored by the diversity police: Islamic men are raping Western women for ethnic reasons. We know this because the rapists have openly declared their sectarian motivations. Raped for reading the Bible. An Iraqi man allegedly raped a Muslim woman as "punishment" for reading the Bible, saying, "let your Jesus help you", a court [in Australia] heard yesterday. Saudi Marriage 'Expert' Advices Men In the 'Right Way' to Beat Their Wives. Move over, Dr. Phil, there's a new relationship expert in town. He's Saudi author and cleric, "Dr." Muhammad Al-'Arifi, who in a remarkable segment broadcast on Saudi and Kuwaiti television in September, counseled young Muslim men on how to treat their wives. Cleric 'predicted bombings'. Television footage was screened on Friday of radical Muslim cleric Omar Bakri Mohammed apparently predicting terrorists would strike on the British mainland several months before the July 7 London bombings. … Bakri famously praised the September 11 hijackers as "magnificent". He then triggered further outrage after the July 7 bombings when he said he would never tip off police if he knew a Muslim was about to carry out an attack. Islam: A religion of peace? Canada faces a unique dilemma because the doctrine of multiculturalism is seen as intrinsic to our national identity. The recent disruption of an alleged homegrown Islamist terror plot has caused many Canadians to ask: How can multiculturalism — which preaches tolerance above all else — be squared with a militant, intolerant creed that demonizes non-believers? Islam Is not a Religion of Peace. The U. S. has many predominantly Muslim allies. We are largely dependent on Arab oil. Much of the press and public have bought into the multiculturalist nonsense that the Clinton and Bush Administrations have helped to instill. Probably the less said the better, but we should not determine our foreign policy and strategy in the Mideast on the utterly false and laughable proposition that Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance. Killers Defy the Koran. It's time to stop calling the global terrorists Islamic fundamentalists. The slaughter of the Russian children in Beslan has absolutely nothing to do with Islam. If the Islamic community does not rise up en masse against the fanatics who dare to use the name of Allah while committing these atrocities, they need to stop insisting Islam is a religion of peace. Iran's new president promotes suicide squads. In the second TV appearance since his election victory, Iranian President-elect Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad spoke in praise of "the art of martyrdom" as volunteers continued to mobilize for suicide squads aimed at U.S., British and Israeli forces. Religious hatred, Saudi-style. Before Sept. 11, 2001, the notion that literature in mosques could be dangerous might have struck some as alarmist. But of the 19 terrorist-hijackers that day, 15 were Saudi, and all of them were steeped in the relentless hostility to "infidels" that the Saudi publications inculcate. For some, the mosques were a crucial resource. A religion of peace? Al-Qaida-related group attacks pastor. A Muslim extremist group tied to al-Qaida set fire to the house of a well-known pastor in Pakistan who had been warned to "repent" and return to Islam. Fighting Radical Islam: Where is the worldwide condemnation of these latest killings by the political and religious leaders of Muslim countries? Where are the U.N. resolutions sponsored by France and Germany condemning what occurred? Terrorism: "Everything To Do With Islam," Says Author: Robert Spencer, author of Islam Unveiled and an adjunct fellow at the conservative think tank Free Congress Foundation, believes Islam's theological foundation is creating many of today's terrorists and would-be terrorists. Spencer's book takes a critical look at the religion of Islam, its holy book, The Koran, its prophet Muhammad and concludes that the religion is producing violent behavior in a significant numbers of its adherents. Khilafah: The Move Toward A One-World Islamic Government. Exactly what it is that Islamists want? They're murdering innocent people around the world, disrupting commerce with their attacks on ships and businesses, attacking churches and temples, and broadcasting threats to the world almost daily. Iran is the Root of Islamic Terrorism. Destroying its theocracy would be a major victory in the war on terrorists. Islam: a religion of peace? A "religion of peace," says President Bush about Islam. But investigative journalist Robert Spencer, in his new book "Onward Muslim Soldiers: How Jihad Still Threatens America and the West," argues that what we call "Islamic extremism" stems from a straightforward reading of the Koran and interpretative Islamic texts. The Willingness To Kill Or Be Killed In The Name Of A Peaceful And Caring Allah! Terrorists wage war on the defenseless civilian population … and these demented maniacs specifically target women and children. Slouching Toward "2084". The Dutch novelist Margriet de Moor, writing in a German newspaper, wants to know whether anyone is at work on a novel titled "2084." … Ms. de Moor describes a visit to a Dutch shelter for battered women, where typically 80 percent of the women are Muslims. Sheik says "It's OK to kill non-Muslims": "If a kafir person (non-believer) goes in a Muslim country, he is like a cow," explains Sheik Abu Hamza. "Anybody can take him. That is the Islamic law." Update: It's in the Book: Sheik Abu Hamza claims that he cannot be accused of inciting violence because he is a cleric who only preaches Muslim law. "I say the reality that's in the Muslim books anyway. Whether I say it or not, it's in the books." Day of the Locusts: Today, leaders and diplomats are claiming, "Islam is a religion of peace." But everything in Islam's history cries out against this. Most wars taking place right now are between Moslems and some other group or nation. The truth is, Islam was born in violence, and it has been a religion of the sword ever since. Mullahs and ayatollahs enforce Islam's laws by flogging people and by chopping off their fingers, limbs or heads. Boys forced into Muslim flogging ritual. A devout Muslim encouraged two teenage boys to flog themselves until their backs were covered in bloody cuts, a jury was told yesterday. Syed Mustafa Zaidi, 44, a Shia Muslim, was celebrating the traditional Ashura festival, a ritual act of lamentation commemorating the slaughter of the Prophet Muhammad's grandson, Husayn, and his followers in the 14th century. Islamists – not who they say they are: Those Moslems variously known as fundamentalists or Islamists often appear to outsiders to be the most authentic adherents of their faith. They refer constantly to God and conspicuously pray in public. Men sport full beards and women wear veils. They urge Moslem solidarity and demonstrate a suspicion of non-Moslems. A closer look, however, finds that Islamists are hardly model Moslems. Religion of peace kills 200 in Nigeria: Hundreds of Muslim youths have gone on the rampage in Nigeria's capital, Abuja, following Friday prayers. The BBC's Haruna Bahago in Abuja says people armed with sticks, daggers and knives set fire to vehicles and attacked anyone they suspected of being Christian. Declare War on Wahhabism: It was not by accident that 15 of the 19 Sept. 11 murders were Wahhabi from Saudi Arabia. Or that the Taliban was the ideal form of Wahhabite government. Or that bin Laden himself is a Wahhabite Saudi. Wahhabism, masquerading as a religion, has a network of Mosques and schools worldwide which are poisoning the young and sowing hatred. Our own PC military is seeking additional Wahhabite clergy. Wahhabite clergy teach in our prisons. The Altar of Death Worship: "We believe our sons go to heaven when they are martyred. When Jewish sons die, they go to hell." Are All Muslims Terrorists? Recently I decided to look further into the Muslim religion. So I went straight to the Koran: the core of Islam. What I have found is absolutely shocking! The Culture of Martyrdom: How suicide bombing became not just a means but an end. Looking Evil in the Face: Danny Pearl was murdered not for any crime or other misdeed he might have committed. He was murdered just because he was an American, a Jew and a reporter. The Toleration of Evil: It is time the world recognizes Palestinian terrorism as a form, indeed the heir, of Nazism. It is time Israel demanded that the toleration of such evil no longer be accepted by civilized societies. It is time for human garbage such as Robert Mugabe, Saddam Hussein and Yasser Arafat be disposed of along with Osama bin Laden. Peace, prosperity and civilization itself can be achieved only by the refusal to tolerate the evil such men embody. "Relentlessly and Thoroughly": The only way to respond. Islam is an imperialist religion, more so than Christianity has ever been, and in contrast to Judaism. The Koran insists that nations, however mighty, must be fought "until they embrace Islam." JIHAD: Unmasking America's new enemy Islamism is a brutal, coercive utopian movement — a politicized and virulent interpretation and implementation of Islam — bent on nothing less than The Battle Over Islam: Oh, certainly, Arab leaders and others issued statements condemning the September 11 attacks, but take a look at the fine print. Other interesting web sites: Jihad Watch. Because the West is facing a concerted effort by radical Muslims, most of whom are ignored by the Western media, to destroy the West and bring it forcibly into the Islamic world. That effort goes under the general rubric of jihad. Jihad Watch is dedicated to bringing public attention to the role that jihad theology and ideology plays in the modern world, and to correcting popular misconceptions about the role of jihad and religion in modern-day conflicts. We hope to alert people of good will to the true nature of the present global conflict that radical Islam is waging against the rest of us.  Islam: The Religion of Peace -- and Terror.
