Wilders: 'It's Time to Unmask Mohammed'

Geert Wilders has continued his battle against the Islamization of the West despite death threats and court cases. And although he doesn't ride a horse shouting a warning that "The Islamists are coming!", the more he talks, the more people are listening to the warning that he is giving. There is a reason that radical Islamists object to any exploration into the true story of Mohammed and the birth of Islam and that is because when the light of truth shines on the history of Islam it tells a very different story than that propagated by those in charge of Islam today or by their enablers from the liberal-socialist left and their minions of politically correct speech.

Only 14, Bangladeshi Girl Charged with Adultery was Lashed to Death

Hena Akhtar, victim of shari'ah law.  

Hena Akhtar, also known as Hena Begum, deserves to be remembered and not to be just another statistic in a Third World country.  Look into her eyes: she was just a child who despite poverty and a culture that offered no real future in the view of those reading this blog, could smile and enjoy life.  She was innocent and she committed no crime by any reasonable definition of the word.  Her only crime was that she was a female who would have had to have four male witnesses to swear that she had been raped if she was to avoid the penalty that was sure to be meted by Islamic religious authority in her hometown of Shariatpur, Bangladesh.  Her testimony, or the testimony of any number of female witnesses, would be inadequate under shari'ah.  The village elders met, the imam issued a fatwa, and she was publicly whipped to death.

There is no defense for such brutality.  We can cluck our tongues and avert our eyes while talking about the ignorance and poverty that allows such inhumane actions; and, we can piously point out that the imam was not truly following the Koran but that only makes us as guilty as the one holding the whip.  For those who would apologize for Islam, the apology cannot be accepted unless accompanied by proactive steps of change and we aren't seeing that.  What we see instead is a perfunctory statement that "it's wrong but that's not the true religion" and a quick change of the subject.  What we think is "Fail!"

The body of evidence available in the world today clearly shows that Islam has developed into a worship of brutality and death such as was the norm in the 10th century.  In other words, it hasn't developed or, if it ever did, ill-educated, religious leadership has devolved it to its current state of religious bigotry and violence.  Under the guise and guidance of its religious law--shari'ah--it justifies the subjugation of women, slavery, stoning, beheading, death for having the temerity to leave the religion, the cutting off of limbs for petty crimes and, in this case, the absolutely inhumane whipping to death of a young girl who committed no crime at all just because she was a female and that's what shari'ah law prescribes.  If the ummah can allow such atrocities to happen and go unchallenged and unpunished because those responsible are religious leaders--imams--or just because they are men who are supreme under shari'ah, then the ummah is as guilty of the crime as are the perpetrators.

There are those within the Muslim community who don't follow this medieval brand of Islam but they are a minority little followed by the media and few have been able to effectively speak out let alone begin to wrest control of the religion from the cretins who currently control it.  I pray that those few will eventually be successful because the bottom line is that if Islam wants respect from all humanity then it must give respect to all humanity.  Its current course is a blasphemy that if not corrected make its practice correspond more closely with a brutal criminal organization masquerading as a religion rather than a true religion that worships God.

Pakistan gunmen kill Christian politician

Because it has grown so common we have ceased being surprised by the violence of Islam; but why are we growing more accepting of it?  

If any news organization could whitewash this news it would be the multicultural, always-politically-correct, far-left-leaning MSNBC; but, in this case even they have to report the facts.

It is long past time that we take stock of the situation in the Muslim world.  There is a dichotomy, it seems, as we know that many Muslims only want peace and prosperity yet there are just as many, if not more, who believe that it is their duty to wage war against Christians and Jews.  They are mainly ill-educated but not always.  Many of the Islamists who wage violent jihad have been educated in Western universities and have lived in Europe and the United States.  Yet, in the end, they decide to attack and kill in the name of Mohammed.

We are only a few days from the arrest of one such student, a Saudi, who was studying in Texas.  He was preparing to make car bombs to wage his jihad here in the U.S.  Such is the evil that has grown from Islam:  The idea that God supports their murder of other human beings and will reward them.  I wonder if they have ever actually thought about what kind of reward God will have for them for their violation of God's Commandment "Thou shalt not murder."  The Koran  cannot be, and most assuredly is not, superior to the laws that God gave to Moses but there are those in the Islamic world who are so wrapped up in worshipping Mohammed rather than God, that they believe that it is.

Shabaz Bhatti was a Christian who died for his faith.  He was murdered not because he had committed a crime in any sense of the word but because he didn't act like the dhimmi that he was supposed to be while living in Muslim-controlled Pakistan where Christians and other religious minorities are routinely threatened with death.  No one has been arrested in his murder.

Tell me, which one is most likely to be in the presence of the Father on the day of judgement:  the one who was murdered for his faith in a Loving God or the murderer?

Blaming the Right for the Giffords Attack Is Pure McCarthyism

George Will is always an excellent read and this one is spot on.

In the wake of the shooting the immediate move of the liberal left was not concern for the victims but positioning for political advantage.  The Democrat leadership and the left-wing blogosphere and the Left Stream Media, aided by the clearly addled Sheriff of Pima County, began an immediate attack on Sarah Palin, the TEA Party, talk radio (obviously conservative talk radio as liberal talk radio has been an abysmal failure) and Fox News.  They attacked Sarah Palin and the TEA Party because they fear her and them.  They attacked talk radio because it airs ideas that oppose their leftist meme.  They attack Fox News because it hasn't fallen in line with the slavish adoration of Barack Obama as best demonstrated by MSNBC.  (There are no more ardent or slavish sycophants of Barack Obama on the airwaves unless, of course, you want to count CNN as a whole.)

The script is now plain for all to see.  They will continue to point fingers at the political right in hopes of at least demonizing them and at best causing them to hesitate or pull punches in their political arguments out of a fantasy-land-fear that their debate has caused an individual to take violent action.  While doing this they will trot out the tried and worn-out arguments for gun control, restrictions on political speech and additional spending for security for the members of Congress.  (That will come in handy at future Town Hall meetings when they want to keep TEA Party members out and have only compliant crowds.)  Their end goal, of course, is domination rather than clear political discourse.

To be sure, the political discourse in America is loud and, at times, raucous.  It is supposed to be because when it is completely controlled by either side the result is not for the good of We the People.  I've often said that the 1st Amendment is a beautiful thing because it helps us to more easily identify who the idiots are and that has never been more true than today.  We have an aged Sheriff, clearly in his dotage, who instead of being the Law Enforcement Officer with 50 years of experience calming the community and assuring them that the evidence is being gathered properly and they are safe, launches into an unsupported, and unsupportable, diatribe against the political right thus shifting the blame from the defendant.

We have a New York Times that just over a year ago when a Muslim Army Officer shouted, "Allah akhbar!" as he began shooting and killing fellow soldiers at Ft. Hood, counseled that we shouldn't jump to conclusions about his motivation but should wait for the facts, now immediately jumping to conclusions in the absence of any supporting facts.  (As did all those on the left, including our dear leader.  Pity they never bothered to say, "Oops, you were right.  He is a Muslim terrorist acting in concert with other terrorists.)

We have Democrat politicians who have yet to shake a medieval mind-set that imparts motive and action to inanimate objects again trotting out tried and failed gun-control policies thinking, I suppose, that We the People are so stupid as to not remember that they just didn't work the last time they were tried and won't work this time.  (Of course, they've always opposed the 2nd Amendment and aren't about to change just because of a little ole' Supreme Court decision.  Remember, these are the same Democrat politicians who urge collective guilt for an individual's crimes because it's society's fault that the individual was forced to kill somebody.)

We have Democrat and liberal-left strategists working feverishly and overtime to fulfill the dictum of Rahm Emanuel that one should "never let a crisis go to waste."

Fortunately, I don't believe the American people are as dumb or sheepish as the liberal-left believes.

Journalists urged caution after Ft. Hood, now race to blame Palin after Arizona shootings

The utter hypocrisy of the liberal Left Stream Media.  Is it any wonder that the market share of outlets like CNN and MSNBC are staggeringly low?  They do not adhere to any journalistic standard but instead follow ideological boundaries.  The shooting in Arizona was terrible but the alleged shooter, Jared Lee Loughner, was described by friends as a "liberal, left wing activist."  Yet CNN and MSNBC are going out of their way to blame Sarah Palin and the rhetoric of conservative talk radio.  I don't believe it is possible for them to be more asinine in their spin on the news.  It would be more logical for them to blame The Daily Kos who published a now-removed (so they could attack Palin with clean hands, I suppose) comment that Gifford should die because she wasn't liberal enough.  But that would still be a ridiculous assertion.

The internet ramblings of Loughner point more to a disturbed individual than to a true political/religious ideologue like Major Nidal Hasan of Ft. Hood Massacre fame.  Remember how the same ones who are now pointing fingers urged calm and said we shouldn't rush to judgment about his Islamic jihadist motives?  They were wrong then, too.  Loughner is not a military veteran as some said immediately after the shooting.  (Why do idiots always like to blame the military first?  We've seen violence, true, and it is something we never want to see again.)  There is no evidence that he is a member of any TEA Party group as the left-wing "Let's-take-advantage-of-this" groups have been asserting.  He is most certainly not a Republican or a Conservative with two of his favorite books being listed as Mein Kampf and the Communist Manifesto both of which promote left-wing ideology.  He may belong to some fringe group but it is one that is not aligned with either of the two main political parties here in the United States in any manner or fashion.

The investigation of Loughner and the shooting is ongoing.  He is in custody.  Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, et al., clearly had nothing to do with it nor did the political rhetoric of the day promote this sick act.  Think about that when you hear a news commentator try to insinuate that opposition to Obama promoted an attempt on the life of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.  Who are really the promoters of violence?

Victory! Seattle Transit Drops Jewish Blood Libel Bus Ads

This is the type of speech that passes for approved civil discourse in Seattle.  Oddly, anything opposing this view is considered hateful.  

Seattle is a very liberal city--pardon the understatement--and it's not surprising that they, meaning Seattle Transit, had no compunction about accepting glaringly anti-semitic ads to run on their mass transit buses.  It is also not surprising that they quickly "unaccepted" those ads and refused to accept pro-Israel counter-ads.  It's a funny thing about liberals that they lack the moral compass necessary to see the difference between hate and discourse.  Anything they say in support of their beliefs is, of course, classified as legitimate discourse while opposing views are always branded as "hate speech" that could cause problems.

Evil always works best in darkness and they would have gladly run the anti-semitic ads until a light was shined upon them by The American Freedom Defense Initiative.  Then the back-peddling began.

The Ugly Reality of Islam

Islam is violent.  Otherwise there would be no problem.  

Harry Potter Actress Beaten and Branded a Prostitute by Her Family After Dating a Non-Muslim

I am told time and again that Islam is peaceful and those who are using it to justify any violence other than self-defense are violating the Koran. Yet the linked story is all too common. The violence of "honor killings"--how can any murder be honorable?--is all too common as is the terrorism against Muslims and non-Muslims alike. So how can a religion that continues to allow, and even give tacit approval to such actions, be termed "peaceful?" How can any religion that allows itself to justify slavery of non-adherents to that religion as is documented in Sudan be called just?

The answer is, of course: It can't. There are Muslims who are peaceful but they are clearly afraid to stand-up and shout in the face of the unthinking violence of their religious brethren. Which gives rise to another question: If, as we are told by the intelligentsia, those who are violent are only 10% of the 1 billion+ Muslims in the world, why are the overwhelming majority afraid to make that minority which espouses violence outcasts? That would surely happen in the Christian world so why not in the Muslim umma? The question is, on retrospect, almost rhetorical. While some, note only "some," of the alleged 90% are truly peaceful and willing to let others worship as they wish, the rest are secretly pleased that "their side" is advancing even if they don't necessarily agree with the violence. In other words, they don't directly approve of it, but they won't stop it.

A case in point is the recent case in Baltimore, Maryland, where an FBI sting operation resulted in the arrest of a young jihadi who wished to blow-up a military recruiting center. The jihadi tried to enlist the cooperation of 3 of his Muslim friends and only one of the friends tried to talk him out of it. When he approached the 4th friend that American went to the FBI and the budding terrorist was caught before he could fulfill his jihad. Think about it for a second. Only 1 of 4 American Muslims did what is expected of any American citizen.

The linked report is no less egregious. An internationally known actress who would appear to be from a upscale and modern thinking Muslim family in England (because, after all, they did let her appear in an internationally known and viewed movie about witches and wizards) is in fear for her life for the apparently unforgivable sin of dating a non-Muslim. There is an evil, it seems, in the hearts of her family and she is now in hiding because of a beating by her father and death threats that involve both the father and the brother. She is in hiding because her father is now demanding that she enter into a marriage he arranged with a Muslim. She is in hiding because our British cousins find themselves totally hobbled by political correctness run amuck and are unable to protect her should she appear to give evidence against her father and brother. It is then, an unfortunate case where both Islam and Christianity have failed the young lady. Islam because it allows such barbarity that could not exist without a nod and a wink from the religious hierarchy; and, Christianity because it has turned a blind eye out of a desire to be inclusive of all thus ignores the problem and does not take stern action--at least in England.

America, I'm afraid, is no less guilty as there have been honor killings here. Two young Muslim girls were allegedly murdered by their father in Texas for "being too westernized" as was a young girl in Arizona for the same inane reason. And another Muslim man in upstate New York allegedly killed and decapitated his wife over "honor" because she wanted a divorce.

Is it any wonder that Americans are uncomfortable with Islam? This is clearly represented by the efforts of some states to forbid the use of shari'ah law in their own courts and the strident opposition to the Ground Zero Mosque in lower Manhattan. The ball is in the umma's court. Islam can only be changed from within and that will only happen if the umma can subdue the barbarians who are in control.

Freeing the Black Jihad Slaves in Sudan

Stop slavery.  Stop it now.  

I've spoken before on the economic slavery that the liberal left is working hard to institute here in the United States.  In many respects it is as pernicious and demeaning in its denial of freedom to the individual as was the slavery of the body that we eliminated in the United States during the 19th century.  It's goal is to turn all citizens into slaves of the state for the belief of liberals is that the state is all important and individuals must conform or be ostracized.

The tragedy of the slavery of the body that was defeated with the Civil War in the United States is still, however, practiced by Muslim countries in Africa.  This really should not surprise anyone who has studied history as it was Muslims, after all, who captured and sold the slaves to European and American slave traders in the 19th century; and slaves have been common in the Middle East since before Islam became a religion.  The main difference is that it is now practiced almost exclusively in Muslim countries where shari'ah law is in force.  This is not to say that all Muslims are slave traders, but it is obvious that Islam is used in places like the Sudan and Saudi Arabia to justify slavery.  The slavery in Sudan especially is so violent and disgustingly immoral that civilized nations would be absolutely justified in totally eliminating the government of that country by force and ensuring that President Omar Hassan Al-Bashir, an already-indicted war criminal, meets a fate similar to Saddam Hussein.

Is it any wonder that we in America are adamantly against the introduction of shari'ah law into the American legal system?

‘Mainstream’ Islamist Group Wants ‘Global Caliphate’ and Islamist America

It's not being fabricated.  They speak for themselves.

Will we let people like this control the destiny of our children?

The inability of people to recognize the threat that organizations like this are to our Constitution and our way of life is frustrating.  Time an again we are told that not all Muslims are trying to destroy our country and that it's not Islam that's the problem but a small group of political fanatics that use Islam as a front or cover for the terrorism that they perpetrate.  Then something like this comes along and we find out that a "mainstream" Muslim group, in this case the Islamic Circle of North America, actually promotes the establishment of a worldwide caliphate and the subjugation of America to shari'ah law and in doing so advances the cause of the so-called political fanatics.

Will someone please tell us why our government leaders aren't calling these people out?  Will someone please tell us why our government is more concerned about criticizing Islamic organizations such as the ICNA and CAIR than it is about protecting our Constitution and way of life?  Will someone please tell us why liberals in the Left Stream Media and the entertainment world kowtow to Islam while feeling free to insult all Christians?  (Wait!  I think I know the answer to that.  See the pictures of Rage Boy and his friends above.)

Isn't it time that our leaders admitted that there is a problem?

Developers of Mosque Near Ground Zero Seek Federal Funds for Post-9/11 Rebuilding

We will never forget...

Let me get this straight.  First, over the objections of a clear majority of Americans, Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf and his crowd want to build what amounts to an Islamist victory monument to the Jihad 19 in the shadows of Ground Zero.  In the raucous discussion about that proposal the apologist defenders of the Ground Zero Mosque stated emphatically time and again that the "...mosque is not at Ground Zero!"

Now the Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf wants the U.S. Government to give $5 million for the renovation from funds set aside to redevelop Lower Manhattan after 9/11.

This is further insult to injury.

CAIR Spreads Propaganda for Radical Saudis on Islam’s Holiest Day

This is CAIR's true goal.

This article by Dr. M. Zuhdi Jassar, an American Muslim, clearly points out that CAIR's motivation is to further the Islamist jihad against the United States from within.  Political correctness prevents both our government and the Left Stream Media from acknowledging the danger of CAIR's activities even though it was an identified as an un-indicted  co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation case involving the illegal movement of money to Hamas.  And we would be foolish to forget the former CAIR officials that have been indicted for being actively involved in terrorism.

Their latest move is to try and obtain a religious exemption for Muslim women who wear the hajib while flying.  Clearly CAIR does not have the best interests of America at heart and the sooner it is exposed to all Americans for what it is the better.  Our government would be much better off listening to men like Dr. Jassar than to extremists whose goal is the subjugation of our nation.

Al-Qaeda on Capitol Hill: Congressional Muslim Staffers Association Embraces Islamic Radicals and Terrorists

The idea that Americans in or near positions of power could willingly aid and abet the furtherance of a political movement dedicated to the subversion of our Constitution and the destruction of our nation is frightening, but that is what the authors of the linked article outline. And scary it is.

Americans are ingrained from day one with the ideal that people may worship as they wish once they come to these shores. But since the 19th century confrontation between the Mormons and the Federal Government over plural marriage which led to a change in Mormon religious doctrine, there has never been a religious movement on our shores so deeply intertwined with an associated political ideology as Islam. It should not be surprising, therefore, that we are confused in how to deal with a group that has a Constitutional right to worship as they please yet a religious obligation to actively advance the goal of placing their religious law in a position above our nation's Constitution. We know that is what the Muslim Brotherhood wants to do and that it is wrong and must be stopped yet we hesitate. Compounding the confusion are the neo-liberal doctrines of diversity and multiculturalism that demand our understanding and acceptance of others without reciprocity. This did not exist when Federal troops were sent to the Territory of Utah in 1857 and thus when Utah became a state it did so without polygamy.

Christians Stabbed, Beaten With Plank Near Indonesia's Capital

This is the truth about Islam.  

This is how Islam functions.  This is the result of Islam becoming the dominant religion in any nation.

In the days leading up to the 9/11 Remembrance in this Year of our Lord, 2010, the Left Stream Media was filled with angst over the proposal of a small town minister in Florida to burn Korans on 9/11.  Ominous threats were received from Muslim radicals and amplified by the ever compliant news media.  Even our military commander in Iraq quaked with fear over the act putting our soldiers in increased danger!  What the politically correct ruling class either cannot or refuses to understand is that Muslims need no reason other than the fact that you are not Muslim and are not groveling at their feet to attack.  The attack reported in the linked article is all too common in Indonesia and the southern Philippines.  Christians are attacked for no other reason than they are Christians who wish to worship God in their own way.  The attacks have nothing to do with the burning of any Koran and certainly had nothing to do with the misguided minister in Florida.  They had everything to do with the religious intolerance that is taught and encouraged in Islam.

But they, the Muslims, are quick to demand that everyone else tolerate their religion and quick to take affront at any perceived slight.  They've even gone to the U.N. to ask that any speech that defames a religion be made an international crime.  (We all know that they don't mean that they will obey that law.  They just want a way to justify their own violence.)  And now the most peaceful Imam Feisal Rauf is uttering thinly veiled threats about how moving the Ground Zero mosque will be perceived as an insult to Islam and cause radical elements, i.e., Islamo-fascists, to attack Americans any where in the world.

Excuse me.  They've been doing that for a couple of decades now and common sense says that whether the mosque is built or not they will still attack Americans any where they think that they can get away with it.  That is the nature of the Islamo-fascists who wage war against the United States and the western world.
