Jewish Neo-Nazis?

Ok, I'm not even going to begin to try to analyze this although I have a feeling Michael Moore will see this as more evidence of Mossad involvement in 9/11. This does kinda remind me of that Chappelle skit about the black Klansman. Bill Dauterive e-mails this Drudge news flash:

Israeli police have discovered a ring of about 20 local neo-Nazis, young emigrants from the former Soviet Union, but are uncertain how to proceed against them as Israel has no specific laws against supporting Nazi beliefs, the Israeli daily Maariv reported Tuesday.

1 you gotta be kidding???....and they are jewish???....and being the reason for Israels creation, you would think that they would have a law banning such anti-Jewish groups...i find this very mindboggling....they must be some drugged out kids or something...sheesh...i mean i have heard of and actually known some Jewish people in America here who did not support alot of what Israel does and did not like some Israeli leaders but ive never known any of them to be in support of or being Nazis

2 Well, I think Rusty could confirm the high degree of anti-Semetism present in the former Soviet Union. So great, that even the Jews hate the Jews.

3 There has been an element in Jewish society for a long time now that hates other Jews, specifically the religious ones. It has taken many forms, and marched under many banners; Nazis, Communists, Liberals, etc., all had/have a Jewish members.

4 Easy way to eliminate the Jewish religion: Make the foreskin cutters Nazis, and in 100 years there are no Jews with dicks left.

6 >>>"It has taken many forms, and marched under many banners; Nazis, Communists, Liberals, etc., all had/have a Jewish members." That's a good point. Self-loathing Jews have always been all over the map. I read an article once about self-loathing jews hiding out in the SS during WW2.

7 Ok ok, that last comment of mine was rude and antisemitist, if that's a suitable word.

Posted by: A fatwad Finn at June 01, 2005 12:00 PM (lGolT)

8 I dont think they were jewish but we have to look at the black americans in our on country as the next potential nazis god forbid. Here in Baltimore md. blacks have told me over and over agian of thier hatred of jews. They seem to regard Jews as Super White and i never ever met a black man or woman who did not hate white ppl. Not that it was always that aparent. But they, Blacks speak up when it comes to thier hatred of Jews. Its disgusting. Black antisemitism in 4 times greater than the general population(JDL)

Greg Has Been Banned

Greg's anti-semetic conspiracy theories have just gone too far. For instance:

When this report is taken with others that I have (I have a mountain of stuff) it appears that the "terrorists' were being shepherded by the Israelis and the FBI.

The Left wing in American begins to sounds more and more like the Klan every day.

3 Bye Bye greg. But really he was the one that gets everyone all riled up and posting. Some days I thought he had to be a machine he was so "always there". He rarely posted an opinion he wasn't willing to back up with facts. He is foul mouthed though. It's your site Rusty do as you must.

Posted by: Howie at May 31, 2005 04:43 PM (D3+20)

4 Greg needs to seek professional help. He is so convinced that his worldview is correct that he has thrown all logic and reason out the window. Plus he is a raging jew hater, and that is never a good thing.

Posted by: Defense Guy at May 31, 2005 04:43 PM (jPCiN)

5 The thing is I didn't want to ban Greg. I enjoyed all the inflammatory discussion he started. But when he begins to say the FBI was somehow involved in 9/11 he has crossed a line into an anti-American paranoia which I will not tolerate.

Posted by: Rusty Shackleford at May 31, 2005 04:45 PM (JQjhA)

6 The thing about Greg that should be understood is that there is nothing unique or special about him to distinguish him from the typical liberal. They are generally certified, foaming-at-the-mouth moonbats, and he is hardly on the fringe. Of course he will go to DU or some other such haven of moonbattery and claim he was banned for dissenting, but liberals are such idiots they don't know dissention from treason.

8 maybe greg is really a Muslims???...has anyone though of that...the short time ive been here all ive seen posted from him are cospiracy theories and such far out liberal crap that i would either laugh at him or curse him till the air turned blue....i mean, its good to have someone with an opposing view so you can try to bring them around to reason and the facts but when someone gets either personal or goes on like he did with anti-Jewish tirades, its time to teach them a lesson to act civil...too bad we just couldnt send the Muslim world to its room so it would learn to behave....sigh, oh well, a guy can dream...nuff said

10 You know, I'm glad to hear it. I always roll my eyes when I see his email address in my inbox indicating yet another mooronic diatribe from Greg...the thing I love about blogging over here is that there are so many readers. People slap the trolls down so quickly I almost never need to defend myself. ;-)

11 Hahahahahahaha...Rusty, you tellin' me you can't handle the mere typed words of Greg?! I mean really...you have all the right in the world to ban anyone from your blog, but he is just as the small yin to your collective yang. Oh yeah, and don't count my bro Collin (colon babler) out...he is still alive and well, lurking in your worst nightmares!

Posted by: osamabeenthere at May 31, 2005 07:40 PM (OXRZJ)

12 Rusty, you're a lot more tolerant than most of these Leftists are. But I still wouldn't have banned him. I'm all in favor of letting Leftists and lunatics like greg out themselves so that regular folks know just how lunatic are. Folks need to hear it from the horse's mouth, because don't believe me. They think I'm just being hysterical when I try to tell them what these moonbats are all about.

Posted by: Carlos at May 31, 2005 08:25 PM (8e/V4)

13 Beth, Greg spews far less bullshit than the collective in here. That bullshit is of course, depends on anyone's point of view. If this is a blog that truely supports Democracy and American values, everyone should be allowed to speak...no matter what they say.

Posted by: osamabeenvotin' at May 31, 2005 08:26 PM (OXRZJ)

14 there is also something called morals and commonsense, osama....while, yea, there isnt really anything that you cant say in the US, but there is a point where most people think, i have the right to not listen to this persons hate filled or nasty personal language...its called being/acting civilized....so in away, you really cant say anything you want....i just cant go down to the corner and yell and scream that im gonna go out and kill blacks or kill jews or spew hate about them or say stuff about someones parents or wife, id be arrested , so if greg comes in here and spouts off his mouth and contributes nothing to the room but just disturbs and aggravates, its Rustys right to ban him or not...hey, at least Rusty doesnt have the power to send a powersurge threw gregs pc and juice his ass good.....nuff said

Posted by: THANOS35 at May 31, 2005 08:40 PM (b7uP2)

15 If this is a blog that truely supports Democracy and American values, everyone should be allowed to speak...no matter what they say. I'm sorry, you seem to be confused. You have the right to speak your opinion. Rusty can't stop that. He doesn't have to provide you with the means to voice your opinion to a broader audience. This is his space. You want an unrestricted platform for your speech? There are hosting services aplenty. This ain't one of 'em.

18 Oh yeah, osamabeenvotin': "...but he is just as the small yin to your collective yang" I think you didn't know what you were saying here... Yang, in tao, is everything considered good, masculine, healthy and the yin is the bad, feminine, harmful. So you were kind of saying greg was a pussy fighting against what's right...

20 I shall miss Greg. His comments usually got those who disagreed with his comments to strengthen their own views via argument.

Posted by: Young Bourbon Professional at June 01, 2005 07:45 AM (x+5JB)

21 Plus, all of his views were NOT "Left wing."

Posted by: Young Bourbon Professional at June 01, 2005 07:46 AM (x+5JB)

22 Yeah, he was a heterosexual, so I guess he wasn't "all the way Left." Anyway, Greg is welcome to read the blog, but I warn all readers to not spout any theories that blame America for 9/11. I myself have had doubts about the Iraq war. I think being against the war because you do not think it is in America's national interests is a legitimate viewpoint, and most of me thinks it's wrong, some quarter of my sould has sympathy for this viewpoint. However, those that question America's MOTIVATION or who BLAME America for terrorist acts will find no comfort or quarter from me.

This is his space. You want an unrestricted platform for your speech? There are hosting services aplenty. This ain't one of 'em." Let me clear up some confusion: If Rusty wants to ban Greg, I can't blame him. I never said this wasn't Rusty's space. He can ban anyone he wants! I just didn't think Greg was bad enough to get dissed...and what's exciting about always talking with people who agree with you? This is only my opinion. Now if I was to ban someone, it would be Minimus Phallus...only on the grounds that he can't handle anything beyond his playground bully mentality. "You should also either ban osamathecocksucker or give me his IP addy so I can hunt him down and... take him out to lunch, yeah, that's it, lunch." Like I've said in other threads: My IP is a dead end since I relay through other servers. (Though if Rusty banned me, I'd respect it and split without re-routing) Minimus, you really don't have any idea who you are fucking with. You can talk all the shit you want, but if you get hostile with me, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.

25 I disagree with Libs and think they're wrong, but I don't consider them lunatics. But greg and the conspiracy theorists are most definitely lunatics. Don't get me wrong, It's nothing personal against them. Greg was fine, but he was a loon. So I do understand Rusty's point of not wanting to dignify that lunacy on his blog. But aside from that, greg wasn't so bad. He'd match you point for point, or insult for insult, depending on how you talked to him.

28 The US Government and the US Mainstream media have not reacted with anything that looks like outrage or even just surprise at the contents of the leaked Downing Street memo. Hence, you have known all along that the claims about Iraq's WMDs were lies manufactured to trick YOU into sending our sons and daughters into harm's way. The Constitution does not explicitly authorize the government to lie to the people. The Tenth Amendment prohibits the government from arrogating that right to itself. Therefore, when the government lies, it acts unconstitutionally and illegally. It exceeds its lawful authority and delegitimizes itself. At the moment the government lies to the people, it ceases to be the legal government of this land..... Stand up man. It is so obvious that 9-11 was an inside job... I see conclusively that a number of public officials, at the national and New York City levels, including then-Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, were aware that flight 175 was en route to lower Manhattan for 20 minutes and did nothing to order the evacuation of, or warn the occupants of the South Tower. One military officer was forced to leave his post in the middle of the attacks and place a private call to his brother - who worked at the WTC - warning him to get out. That was because no other part of the system was taking action. You can also prove the "Israeli and British governments acted as partners with the highest levels of the American government to help in the preparation and, very possibly, the actual execution of the attacks." When so many leaders are part of the Israel oath and Carlyle type Bush Sr.) weapons manufacturers, how can you stand by and watch Idaho farmers and mothers loose the children of Idaho? Who is making millions? The PNAC - Project for a New American Century: Elliott Abrams,Gary Bauer, Eliot A. Cohen, Midge Decter, Paula Dobriansky, Steve Forbes, Aaron Friedberg, Francis Fukuyama, Frank Gaffney, Fred C.Ikle, Donald Kagan, Zalmay Khalilzad, I. Lewis Libby, Norman Podhoretz, Dan Quayle, Peter W. Rodman, Stephen P. Rosen, Henry S. Rowen, Donald Rumsfeld, Vin Weber, George Weigel, Paul Wolfowitz) that is who.. They needed a "New Pearl Harbor" to convince you all to go to war and fund the military take over. Bush even went as far as to say that 9-11 was the "New Pearl Harbor". Thus begins "The Theatre Wars". Look here, http://www.newamericancentury.org. I hope you have studied the PNAC. They own you and me. They are hopelessly bound to Israel and oil and war. I quote, "We need more money to up the defense budgets for raises , new arms, and future capabilities." "Without some disaster or catastrophic event neither the politicians or the military would have approved." Feel duped? WE all were... Let us review this "New Pearl Harbor" shall we? Gee, Sir just who set up all these diversions? TREASON? 1 ) MILITARY EXERCISE NORTHERN VIGILANCE: Transferred most of the combat ready interceptors and possibly many AWACS from the north east into northern Canada and Alaska. This explains,in part, why there were only eight ( 8 ) combat interceptors in the NE on 9/11. 2 ) NON-MILITARY BIOWARFARE EXERCISE TRIPOD II: FEMA arrived in NYC on 10 Sept 2001 to set up the command post for FEMA, NEW YORK CITY AND DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE on Manhattan's PIER 29. This shows our masters are loving, they made a strong effort to minimize the required deaths. This was probably forced on them by the CFR, nice guys who must occasionally kill innocent people. 3 ) WARGAME EXERCISE, VIGILANT GUARDIAN: This exercise simulated hi-jacked planes in the northeast sector. The 9/11 commission made only mention of this single exercise and lied about its purpose. The commission said its purpose was to intercept Russian bombers. 4 ) WARGAME EXERCISE, VIGILANT WARRIOR: This exercise simulated hi-jacked planes in the northeast sector. 5 ) WARGAME EXERCISE NORTHERN GUARDIAN: This exercise simulated hi-jacked planes in the northeast sector. At the time of the real hi-jacking there were as many as 22 hi-jacked aircraft on NORAD's radar screen. Some of these drills were "Live Fly" exercises were actual aircraft, likely flown by remote control were simulating hi-jacked aircraft. Some of the drills electronically added the hi-jacked aircraft into the system. All this as the real hi-jackings began. NORAD could not tell the difference between the seventeen bogus blips and the five actual hi-jacked aircraft blips. Cheney could. It is clear we know almost nothing about how 9/11 was executed. We should know it was an exceeding highly technological operation involving dozens of major projects each employing large resources. So, right now the United States is a nation without a legal government. We are under occupation by a foreign power. "As nightfall does not come all at once, neither dies oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight. And it is in such twilight that we all must be aware of change in the air - however slight - lest we become victims of the darkness" Justice William O. Douglas, US Supreme Court (1939-75). How was the 'Secret' Senate meeting on Patriot Act? The expanded act would let police go on 'fishing expeditions? In a move that could expand the police powers in the Patriot Act, the Senate Intelligence Committee will meet behind close doors to discuss, among other things, "a little-discussed provision to enlarge the FBI's ability to wiretap people who it suspects are national security threats." And, pray tell, what constitutes the DEFINITION of a 'national security threat"??? Anyone who disagrees with the current Administration? Man, that's going to be one heck of a lot of wire taps. Where is the love? Repeat after me, "I am from the government and I am here to help you." If you are among those who still think the US government "Military - Industrial - Intelligence" complex would never dream of harming Americans: Who blew up the 'Maine'? Who has tested, for decades, - with often fatal results - scores of bio-pathogens against countless, unknowing US men, women and children? Who put our troops and public in death's way of radioactive fallout in the 50's and 60's above-ground nuclear testing? Who created 'Operation Northwoods' which proposed killing American airline passengers among many other treasonous acts? Who failed to warn and encouraged the attack on Pearl Harbor? Who killed JFK, RFK, JFK, Jr, Sen Carnahan, Sen Wellstone and countless others who 'got in the way'? What about those 50+ dead microbiologists? Who created/caused GWI which has killed/disabled over 500,000 US troops and their family members? Who used/is using nuclear weapons in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and Iraq which have killed or disabled tens of thousands of US troops... and will kill far more than that number with the 'Depleted'Uranium now sown...not to mention the millions of other innocents now dead or dying? Who lied repeatedly about HIV/AIDS? Who has lied/lies repeatedly about mad cow prion disease in our food supply - which is now crawling throughout our environment? Who approved countless deadly pharmaceutical drugs, including deadly toxins like aspartame, and sat by and watched Americans die? You cannot deny the writing is on the wall for 9-11. As year five of the reign of George W. Bush unfolds, consider Team Bush's modus operandi: a cabinet in lock-step with the resident; secret policy-making meetings and back door deals with the corporate elite; legislation crafted by a Republican-controlled Congress with little dissent by a timid opposition party; misinformation and isinformation campaigns; a permanent war on terrorism that olerates the widespread abuse of detainees and secret prisons; and the chipping away at civil liberties.. America is becoming a Theocratic Fascist Dictatorship. If you need a reminder of a what a Fascist Government may be like, here are fourteen: 1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism (Patriotism) - Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays. 2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights - Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc. 3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause - The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc. 4. Supremacy of the Military - Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized. 5. Rampant Sexism - The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution. 6. Controlled Mass Media - Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common. 7. Obsession with National Security - Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses. 8. Religion and Government are Intertwined - Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions. 9. Corporate Power is Protected - The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite. 10. Labor Power is Suppressed - Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed. 11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts - Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked. 12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment - Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even fore go civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations. 13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption - Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders. 14. Fraudulent Elections - Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections. Consider, the anti-democratic warning signs: the Patriot Act and subsequent civil liberties-busting legislation; election snafus seamlessly fading into history; a war carried out on the basis of misinformation and disinformation; secret prisons where captives are tortured. Think about how things change slowly, yet dramatically, while good people either aren't paying attention or are too satisfied to raise their voices. Will you save us? We are watching you too!

Karnival of the Koran Krapping (UPDATED: Happy Memorial Day Infidels!!)

UPDATE: Keep those pics coming!! I will not stop until we get a collective fatwa issued against us.

Ok, so my original post and new website didn't get me a fatwa, any death threats, a riot, or even a single major diplomatic incident. *sigh* At least it generated a lot of other bloggers to post their own pictures of Quran desecration! That's gotta count for something, baby!!

Keep those photos coming. If the entire blogosphere pooling its resources can't start an international incident, what can?

Below are several great images. Click on each one to take you to the blogger's original post.

Here is the image that started it all.....

Here is our first video entry from Dan Riehl!! Click image below for video.

Here's a new one I got on 6/09

This one was so inspiring that I almost gave it its own post. I call it "Damn if feels good to be an infidel!"

Can it get any more blasphemous? You bet it can. more...

Doesn't it annoy you when you see people burning the American flag? How the hell is this any different??? (don't bother answering) You've gone way too far.

15 >What bloggers do for fun has nothing to do with U.S. policy >vis a vis muslims. So? The point is this: when Islamic terrorists see the American public defiling a book that's sacred to around one fifth of the world's population... it gives them the PERFECT opportunity for launching a recruitment drive. I.E. the reckless stupidity of the American public is directly proportional to the increase in global terrorist attacks. If you provoke them - they will strike. >I never ascerted Newsweek put our troops in danger... the >Islamofacists did Actually your Government did!!! White House spokesman Scott McClellan: "This allegation....was contrary to everything that we value and all that our military works to uphold... People lost their lives. The image of the United States abroad has been damaged. It will take work to undo what can be undone". Why do you hate Islam so much? Don't you understand that ANY religion can be exploited by fascists? Hitler thought he was being a good Christian by killing all the Jews.

17 Hey Martin, I do not condone US soldiers doing this. because they represent the US government, in the same way I do not support taxpayer money to support anti-Christian art. On the other hand, I do support the right of an artist to make anti-Christian art or a fictional character named 'Rusty Shackleford' defacing the Koran. I don't care if Muslims are offended. I am much more concerned with a 'holy book' that condones the murder of non-believers than I am abaout anybody being 'offended'. Further, if the Koran is so holy and peaceful, etc, then the worst this should do is cause protests. On the other hand if such actions, like this, lead to violence then what we have engaged in is a moment of clarity.

32 Is it any wonder that a large proportion of the muslim world thinks that America has little or no respect of their religion, not to mention understanding? This kind of thing will just lead to putting the troops in even more danger since it will fuel hatred and help legitimise insurgents actions, free PR for recruiting. It is ridiculous to start citing the Koran's so-called message of 'death to infidels', have any of you taken the time out to read the Koran and learn about Islam? There is a lot in the bible that if taken word for word is pretty extreme, but the vast majority of people don't follow it word for word. Your ignorance is shown by your generalisations of Muslims and i'd be surprised if you've even met any. Keep on acting the way you do and the problem is only going to get worse.

33 Ben, Why don't you share your so-called knowledge of what is "pretty extreme" in the Bible? --Jesus replied, " 'Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and mother,'[a] and 'love your neighbor as yourself.'"--- Matthew 19:19 Yea, I'd say that's pretty "extreme"...even radical at that. Nowhere in the Bible does it talk about putting others under servitude or enslavement (dhimmitude anyone?) or to kill anyone who does not agree with their faith, rather God asks us to LOVE them, and PRAY for them. Yea, pretty extreme.

35 Leviticus 25:44-46 "Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids. Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession. And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour." -"However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way." Exodus 21:7 states you can sell your daughter. People quote leviticus as being plain evidence that homosexuality is wrong, yet in exodus (35:2) it states you may kill your neighbour if he works on a sabbath. So its ok to enforce one but not the other?

37 Yes, Ben, you caught me in my haste by my setting the parameters too broadly by saying "nowhere in the Bible"--- but the mistake most non-Christians make is failing to differentiate between the Old Testament laws and convenants (the Hebrew Scriptures) and the New Testament. You are quoting laws which no longer apply because sacrificial/priestly law is no longer needed because of Christ's perfect sacrifice. The Mosaic covenant established the law and the priesthood, however, through Christ's death and resurrection, the New Covenant was established which abolished the need for the priesthood. Therefore, making the Levitical (Mosaic) law (which includes those things you mentioned regarding the holding/owning of slaves, etc.), unnecessary for followers of Christ. Therefore, Christians are not held to the Levitical law, like Muslims are held to the laws of the Koran. The laws and the "extremism" quoted from the Old Testament (the Hebrew Scriptures) are not relevant to today's followers of the Way (Christ Jesus)--subsequently rendering your arguement null and void. In order to efficiently argue "extremism"--quotes about Christian practices/"laws" need to be cited ONLY from the New Testament. To Christians, the Old Testament (Hebrew Scriptures) serve as a historical set of events leading up to the fulfillment of the prophecies which would culminate in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

40 Kyler, I'll further your remark with a comparison of the Bible to the Koran: The only thing that can save Islam at this point is if they, too, come out with a new and revised edition of the Koran like the Christians did with the New Testament. You could have the Old Koran which preaches hell fire and damnation and the New Koran which teaches temperance and tolerance. Of course Mohammed would have to be ressurected and the first time he married a 6 year old he'd go to jail and maybe see that he did his people a real disservice. It's really a shame because since Islam is Christianity's younger sibling, by around 600 or 700 years, and Christianity hasn't killed anyone for "the faith" in almost two hundred years, I figure we have about 400 or 500 years more to wait for their murderous ideals to fade or evolve. The problem with Islam is that it hasn't evolved like Christianity has. Still, even in this modern day, their tenets are designed to keep that from happening; to keep their people in the dark ages and completely refute anything resembling progress and equality even among their own. Why people still insist that this idea be "respected" is beyond me. "Servitude" vs "dhimmitude". "Selling your daughter" vs "killing your daughter". Old Testament vs The Koran. The Koran and Mohammed were nothing more than an attempt to restore things the way they were before Christ. They desperately need a new prophet to set things straight. I don't subscribe to either religion, but I sure can see the difference and if I had to choose, guess which one I'd go for? Muslims don't have that choice for fear of death.

49 As if Jihadis need an excuse to kill Americans and Jews...I mean come on. This might be in bad taste but so is a lot of other things that is called "art". Rumcrook: Hitler may have not been a Christian but he sure as hell used Christian dislike of Jews for his owns. Hitler used the hatred of Jews that was common (and still is) in the Catholic countries of Europe to his own advantage. A couple of thousand years of Jew bashing from the pulpit made it a bit easier to turn the Germans and others against Jews in such an extreme way. And it is not exactly like it was the first time there were pogroms against Jews in continental Europe. Any reading of the Jewish experience in Europe will demonstrate that. The only thing that made the Nazis ususual was the fact they did on such a large scale and mechanised it. In fact, Hitler and the Nazis were not pagans but in fact just Nazis. Nazism was suppose to take the place of religion as well as political parties. Most of their myths were made up on the spot losely based on Norse and Germanic pagan ideology.

Posted by: Andrew Ian Dodge at May 31, 2005 10:13 AM (ni3Uj)

50 The truth about Hitler Hitler's hatred of the Jews had nothing to do with religion, and his fascination with the Norse gods was solely in the interest of using them as mind control devices. Hitler was a liberal of his day, i.e. he saw the suffering of the world as the fault of the Jews, just like the French did, just like the Russians did, and just like modern liberals do today. Only difference is that back then, they weren't liberals, they were "progressives", exactly the same as liberals call themselves today. I mean, come on, what else could you call Hitler but a liberal? He was a vegetarian, an artist, he had no useful education but lots in the way of "intellectualism", he had delusions of grandeur, saw plots and conspiracies everywhere, and hated Jews. Oh, and he was probably part Jewish. As was Lenin. As was Marx. As were many so-called "revolutionaries" of their day. They were atheistic Jews and they hated the Jews who practiced their faith. Now, I'm not slamming atheism here, as I am an atheist, and have no personal desire to exterminate the Jews, but I'm also not a "progressive" or any other type of sociopath, I'm a libertarian, but this isn't about me. Hitler was the archetypal liberal, and if he were alive today, he would probably be a regular Democratic candidate for president.

52 Those pictures probably (I hope) won't amount to a hill of beans of difference considering the enourmous glut the world has to digest in info overload on a daily basis. However, it is nice to think that those of us who consider ourselves to be cultured and somewhat mature - hahaha - would consider these images at the very least the kind of thing that our mothers taught us in 1st grade were juvenile and potty humor. That's the best take on this baloney. The worst take is that they make it onto a jihadi website to be used (however fakey they are) as a recruitment tool. I for one am for using all means - psychological warfare, the economic carrot & stick, military superiority (espcially technologically), philisohpical, political and religious sophistication and argumentation, etc. etc. to win this war against those within Islam who are pushing the edges of that religion toward a Cult of Death. Now some would say Islam cannot be redeemed - and perhaps that may be true. But at the very least we should encourage the finer impulses of Islam (say discipline, morality and sense of right and wrong). Meantime, if you want a good laugh at someone else's expense why don't you stick it in the eye of people that can "take it" - like Donald Trump, Bill Clinton or President Bush (whatever is your fancy for humor or caricature - Dana Carvey and Will Farrel come to mind). The radical Muslims, however, have proven to have very little in way of a sense of humor. That is something we just need to accept, imho, and not provoke this rather juvenile mindset. If Islam ever grows up and decides to be a fully functioning religion like all the other great religions then they will open themselves up to public scrutiny and indeed to humor, critique and occasional derision. Until then we're fighting insane and deadly juvenile delinquent 'theologians' (I'm talking about the Salafi Wahabi Sunnis here I suppose primarily) who are DEADLY SERIOUS about killing our young, brave men and women and innocents all around. I for one do not wish to give them any more ammunition then they already seem to have.

54 Condemning Islam via citations from the Koran, and then defending Christianity from Bible citations by saying, essentially, "you're taking it out of context" is not reasonable. Condemning Islam by citing examples of extremists outside of the mainstream of Islamic belief while not acknowledging extremists like the Hitler and the KKK is not reasonable. Extremist elements of the Muslim world and out of context quotes from the Koran are as relevant to Islam as extremist elements of the the Christian world and out of context quotes from the Bible are relevant to Christianity.

56 We Shall Prevail!...Or Will We? by: Ali Sina 2005/07/07 "We shall prevail and they shall not," was the reassuring statement read by the shaken British Prime Minster Tony Blair, flanked by fellow G-8 leaders in response to four terrorist attacks against civilians in London today, July 7, 2005, that killed at least 40 people and injured 700. Among them, at least 45 are in serious or critical condition, including amputations, fractures and burns. These are only preliminary numbers. The count of casualties will certainly rise. Blair added: "Whatever they do, it is our determination that they will never succeed in destroying what we hold dear in this country and in other civilized nations throughout the world," That is a heartening promise and it this time that the Great Britain is hit by the worst attack since Hitler, it is most welcomed. But is there any substance to it, or is it just a pep talk? Unfortunately the promise that we shall prevail is an empty promise. The question is how we can prevail when we are not even fighting against the enemy? Billions of dollars are being spent and wars are being waged yet the enemy is not even identified let alone targeted. If anyone thinks the war against Islamic terrorism can be won the way our politicians are waging it, he is deluding himself. We are fighting this war defensively. No war was ever won fighting it defensively. Even that is an overstatement. The truth is we are just sitting ducks for the terrorists to hit us at anytime they want. The truth is that we are helpless. Each one of us can become the target of some sort of terrorist attack and there is nothing we can do about it. We are like frogs with a snake in the pond. As long as the snake is loose, anyone of us can be hit at anytime and all the assurances and hazard alerts have no other value than making us feel better. To fight this war, first we have to identify snake. The snake is an ideology. It is an ideology that promotes hate and incites violence. This ideology is called Islam. One commuter evacuated from a subway train at KingÂ’s Cross station reported: Â“It was chaos. The one haunting image was someone whose face was totally black and pouring with blood." A doctor rushing to the scene of one of the blasts said: Â“The front of BMA house was completely splattered with blood and not much of the bus was left,Â” A surviving passenger who was sitting in front of the bus that exploded killing ten people, said: " The roof flew off and went up about 10 meters (30 feet). It then floated back down," he said. "There were obviously people badly injured. A parking attendant said he thought a piece of human flesh had landed on his arm." As the city's transportation system ground to a near-halt, buses were used as ambulances and an emergency medical station was set up at a hotel. Rescue workers, police and ordinary citizens streamed into the streets to help. The Associated Press writer Jane Wardell wrote: "Some central London streets emptied of traffic. Groups of commuters who had been on their way to work gathered around corner shops with televisions, watching in silence. The mood was somber and subdued". This is all in accordance with the teachings of Islam. Muhammad ordered his followers to instill terror in the hearts of those who did not believe in him (8:12). He exhorted them to fight against unbelievers (8:65), slay them (9:5), Punish them by their hands (9:14), and subdue them (9:29) . This is exactly what is happening. The terrorists are not a misguided Muslims. They are the real Muslims doing what their prophet instructed them to do. Not all Muslims are terrorists. But the fact is that the Islamic terrorists hide among the Muslims, who in turn either protect them or are sympathetic to their cause. Islamic community is the breeding ground of Islamic terrorism. We canÂ’t find the terrorists to eliminate them before they strike, but we can eliminate their breading ground. Leaving the summit of G-8 behind and returning to London , Mr. Blair said he knew most Muslims worldwide "deplore this act of terrorism." This could be true. But what good it makes when they support the ideology of terrorism at the same time? These Muslims who deplore acts of terrorism must ask themselves why they support Islam that advocates terrorism. There is an inconsistency between what they profess (their faith) and what they proclaim (their word). More terrorist attacks will occur. More people will die and if we do nothing, Islamic terrorists will eventually win. Islam has won through terrorism ever since it began. Islam may not win to become the world religion, but it will win burning the world into ashes and for Islam that would be a victory. There is only one way to fight Islamic terrorism and that is to fight Islam itself. Islam IS terrorism. All we have to do is read the Quran and familiarize ourselves with the life of its author to see this fact. In the Quran, the incitement to kill and to instill terror is spelled out in clear language in hundreds of verses. The first step that we have to take is to identify the supporters of Islamic terrorism, those who hate the West and kick them out. It is not difficult to identify these goons. They are very vocal on the Internet spewing their venom against the West. They can be easily identified and thrown out. Mosques must be shut down and mosque goers should also be kicked out. Mosques are not places of worship as churches, synagogues and other temples are. The only deity worshiped there is Allah the god of death and bloodshed. Ayatollah Komeini said, "Mehraab (the main hall of the mosque) means the place from which war (harb) proceeds". If they hate the West this much, why they should be allowed to live here? The terrorists are them. We should not wait until they strike, but rather kick them out for the very fact that they do not like us and our way of life. The second step is to launch a massive ideological war against Islam. It is Islam that is inciting hate and is goading Muslims to become terrorists. How can we overlook this clear connection? Ironically, the British Parliament is debating a law to declare criticism of Islam, "incitement to religious hatred" and make it a crime. This is insanity. How can we fight our enemy and protect it at the same time? In Italy, Oriana Fallaci the author of the best selling book "La Forza della Ragione" is sued for denouncing Islam. Amazingly the Italian Judge, Armando Grasso, of the city of Bergamo, instead of throwing out the suit has ordered Fallaci to stand trial. Islam must not be protected by passing laws making illegal its criticism. On the contrary, Muslims must be forced to justify their terrorist faith and prove that it merits the status of religion. Do we give the hate spewing Creativity Movement the status of religion just because its followers claim it is? Would anyone in his right mind ban the criticism of cults such as the Satanism, Branch Davidian or the Solar temple or even the cult of Charles Manson? Why in a country that even the criticism of Christianity is not banned, the criticism of a dangerous cult such as Islam must be outlawed? More lives have been lost today and more will be lost in future but those who want to remain politically correct and the appeasers are not going to wake up. They will continue defending Islam, the very doctrine that calls for their heads. They will continue fighting for the right of Muslims to believe and promote their ideology of hate. It seems the non-Muslims are on a suicidal course. One day, when they have had enough of it, perhaps after hundreds of terrorist attacks have left virtually everyone mourning for the loss of a loved one, or perhaps when a few atomic bombs have been blasted in their countries and a few million of them are incinerated; when their economies are totally destroyed and their cities have become wastelands, the Westerners will rise and slaughter their Muslim neighbors. Under pressure insanity prevails. The inability of the governments and the unwillingness of the public to denounce Islam as evil and ban it, will inevitably strengthen fascism, racism and vigilantism. White supremacists will find a receptive audience and in the name of saving their countries from foreigners they will launch their genocidal campaign against non-Whites. The silent masses will remain ever more silent. Tired of incessant Islamic terrorism and wary of their governments' inability to deal with the threat of Islam, they will receive the fascists as their saviors and will rely on them to cleanse their countries from Muslim immigrants and non-Whites. Fascism could come back with vengeance and everyone would lose their freedom. Yet many would welcome it because the threat of Islam seems to be far more greater than the home grown fascism. Why take the route of insanity when we still have time to eliminate our enemy by words alone? And yet the British Parliament wants to suffocate even this word. This law would only make fascism to come back as it would be the only alternative. We canÂ’t win Islamic terrorism unless we demolish its ideology. Islam must be demolished or more lives will be lost, more body parts will fly in the air and more innocent blood will dye the streets. At the end Islam will lose; but at what cost? The longer we wait, the heavier will be the price to pay. Instead of passing foolish laws banning criticism of Islam, Islam must be discussed freely in schools, universities and in the mainstream media. Public debates must take place between the proponents and the opponents of Islam so the hidden facts about Islam come to surface. Muslims living among us must be brought to accountability. They must either leave Islam or forced to leave non-Muslim countries. Islam is terrorism. It must be banned. We are not talking about religious persecution. Islam is not a personal religion. It is a fascistic anti human ideology with a very temporal goal in the guise of religion and promises of afterlife. It is an ideology that wants to instill terror, to destroy democracies, take away our freedoms and dominate the world. Like Nazism and communism, Islam harbors ambition of world of domination and yet demands protection under religious status. We must not tolerate this ideology of hate masked as religion. It must be destroyed and its proponents must be kicked out. If Islam wants to conquer the world it is political, and criticizing it cannot be classified and "incitement to religious hatred". If we do the same that we were doing, we will reap the same that we have been reaping. More lives will be lost and despite Mr. Blair's assurances, we shall not prevail. In fact we will lose and that means the end of the world as we know it. It is not good to lose hope but false hopes can be just as deadly.

Festival of the Fatwas

So many great blogs, so little time. If you have a post you need plugged, just send a trackback here. We'll see if there are any takers and whether or not to make this a regular feature. (Translation: for the love of all that is holy send a trackback!!)

Update: Of course this might work better if trackbacks were working......*sigh*
Update II: Ok, all seems normal again.

In the meantime:

Cheers to Martini Pundit on his one year blogoversary.

The Dread Pundit Bluto catches a case of the funny.

WunderKraut notices that NPR uses the 'I' word. As in "Illegal Alien".

Jason has more on the Iraq-al Qaeda connection.

Jane from Armies of Liberation has an excellent post in The Religion Journal on the ongoing government sponsored al Qaeda jihad in Yemen.

Secret note to Preston: Forget the boring TN scandal, focus all remaing strength on tonight's 'meeting'.

A cold case is heating up. Iowa paperboy Johnny Gosch vanished without a trace in 1982. Is Jeff Gannon, Johnny Gosch?

12 Did I tell you today how much I love you Rusty? Also todays news, al-Qaeda sponsored Baathist training camps in Yemen. So now not only did the Yemen govt hire several top Iraqi generals into its military, but they are training the fucktards that go try to blow up our guys and the Iraqi kids. Rusty, I really appreciate all the help you gave me getting this story out. And the more I check it, the more serious it becomes, like gun runnning, narco-terrorism, and more. But I'd be no where in terms of publicity without the the good people of the blogosphere. I think even Robert put in a good word for me and Front Page published my article today. Gordo's been a dream and so so many others.

13 The Five Dancing Israelis Arrested On 9/11 http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/fiveisraelis.html A Mossad surveillance team made quite a public spectacle of themselves on 9-11. 1. The Israeli Â“moversÂ” cheered the 9-11 attacks to celebrate the successful accomplishment of the greatest spy operation ever pulled off in history. 2. One of them, or an accomplice, then calls a 9-1-1 police dispatcher to report Palestinian bomb-makers in a white van headed for the Holland Tunnel. 3. Having thus pre-framed the Palestinians with this phone call, the Israeli bombers then head for the George Washington Bridge instead, where they will drop off their time-bomb van and escape with Urban Moving accomplices. 4. But the police react very wisely and proactively by closing off ALL bridges and tunnels instead of just the Holland Tunnel. This move inadvertently foils the IsraelisÂ’ misdirection play and leads to their own capture and 40 day torture. 5. To cover up this story, the U.S. Justice Department rounds up over 1000 Arabs for minor immigration violations and places them in New York area jails. The Israelis therefore become less conspicuous as the government and media can now claim that the Israelis were just immigration violators caught in the same dragnet as many other Arabs. 6. After several months, FBI and Justice Department Â“higher-upsÂ” are able to gradually push aside the local FBI agents and free the Israelis quietly.

14 The Fake bin Laden Video Tape YOU ARE LOOKING AT A US GOVERNMENT LIE http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/osamatape.html On December 13, 2001 a videotape of Osama bin Laden "confessing" to the 9/11 attacks was made public. Look at the juxtaposed pictures of Â‘OsamaÂ’ for yourself. The Â‘smoking gunÂ’ tape is clearly a fake! Your government is lying to you. You should be outraged. When Clinton lied about a lesser offense he was impeached. It's time to impeach the chimp.

20 "Seen it before greg. It's crap."-DG How is it crap? That was the tape our government provided which they called the "smoking gun" because supposedly Osama takes credit for 911 in the tape. But anyone who looks at the picture from the "smoking gun" tape juxtaposed to other Osama pictures will clearlly see that the man on the tape is not Osama. The tape is a fake and your denying it without even looking at it just shows what a stupid closed-minded person you are. You little Cunt Juice Fascist! Our government is lying to us.

Louisiana Church Sex Cult Arrests

(Ponchatoula, Louisiana) The FBI, the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office, the Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office, and the Ponchatoula Police Department are investigating allegations of cult-like deviant practices, including sex with children and animals, by members of the Hosanna Church in Ponchatoula. Thus far, the following eight people have been arrested and charged.

Austin Bernard III, 36, was charged with allegedly forcing a girl under the age of 13 to perform a sex act and admitted to knowing about alleged sexual acts involving children, dogs and cats that occurred at Hosanna Church.
Nicole Bernard, 36, was charged with aggravated rape of a juvenile under the age of 13
Paul Fontenot, 21, was charged with aggravated rape of a juvenile under the age of 13.
Deputy Christopher Labat, 24, was charged on one count of aggravated rape, one count of crime against nature, and one count of malfeasance in office. Being a law officer, Labat was not put with the general prisoner population. He is, however, on suicide watch.
Louis Lamonica, 45, was charged with two counts of aggravated rape and one count of crime against nature after he confessed that he had sex with children and animals. The entire sex cult case broke wide open when Lamonica walked into the Sheriff's office and confessed. He is the former pastor of the Hosanna Church.
Robbin D. Lamonica, 45, was charged with one count of aggravated rape after a male victim told deputies that he had been having sex with Robbin Lamonica from the time he was 4 years of age until he was 13.
Lois Ann Mowbray, 54, was charged with obstruction of justice, failure to report a felony, and accessory after the fact to aggravated rape.
Allen R. Pierson, 46, was charged with one count of aggravated rape for allegedly engaging in sexual intercourse with a girl who was 9 or 10-years-old at the time. The victim is now 13.

The investigation continues and authorities believe there may be dozens of victims ranging in age from infancy to adolescence. Computers were seized and the crime lab expects to find pictures of sex acts involving children and animals.

Notably, the laws of Louisiana consider sex with young children a capital crime punishable by death. If the evidence is sufficient, Scott Perrilloux, the 21st Judicial District Attorney, may seek the death penalty. Execution shouldn't be inconceivable. The enormity of the alleged crimes is bewildering.

7 Well, even the Holy Spirit, the energybeing in charge of Gods work on Earth, is a pedofile. Mary was 16 when she had Jesus. (well fine, it could have been the over 60-year-old Joseph and they just said it was a virgin birth to avoid trouble) So get out of that sick thing you call religion and stop trusting in God.

Posted by: osamabeenthere at May 23, 2005 11:01 AM (E2ydb)

10 It is not religion that is bad, but "Organized" religion. If Finn wants to pray to Akka, or Osama to Allah, that is fine and dandy. Even if they do it while walking down the street, no biggie. It is when power hungry people get to gether and try to control the masses by telling them things will be better in the next life, so shut up and do what I tell you and the next life will be heaven. Keep the worshippers stupid, uneducated, and poor, and you can control them better. (How do you do this, tell them birth control is evil, and they should pop out as many babies as possible.) They way I see it, the only one who is getting me into heaven, is myself and the Big Guy upstairs (and F--K no I don't mean Bush). So since it is between me and God, why should I listen to any one else.

Posted by: Butch at May 23, 2005 12:14 PM (Gqhi9)

11 It is definitely sad to see things like this happen, but it is definitely a sign that Jesus is coming back soon. I drove by the church last night for the first time. It looked like a regular church, except it had a Parish Homeland Security van & 3 police cars outside with caution tape all around. It was really sad to hear about a place that people go to for security & comfort doing these GOD AWEFUL things to children & animals. TO ALL OF YOU WHO HATE GOD & RELIGION: This does not represent all religions, & yeah I agree religion sucks, but God doesn't. It's not about religion its about having a close relationship with God that is your own relationship. Not being controlled by what everyone else thinks you should be or do, but by listening to God's voice & just using common sence. Responding to what Kazmin remarked, God would never tell anyone to have sex with children. He specifically said that adultery & fornication is a sin. It is a sin to have sex with someone you are not married to, & you can't marry a child. I am just asking all who read this not to allow this incident to make you run the other way, but to know that God is love & love is not this.

Posted by: Rachel at May 23, 2005 01:18 PM (vxFAx)

12 I think most of the posters here are missing the point and some very relative information. This was a not a Godly church. Members have admitted in their affidavits that they were worshipping satan. So, please, let us not lump good Christians, Jews, or Muslims in the same pile with satan worshipping pedophiles...that's very much like filling a bowl of apples, oranges, and bananas with huge smelly piles of crap!

Posted by: t at May 23, 2005 03:17 PM (frFd7)

13 Mr T., "Godly" churches have committed some of the same acts as this one, (Catholic sex abuse scandal.) It is not the religion that I dislike, but the Church. Like I said, having your own relationship with God(s, Goddess, whatever) is okay, it should be between you and him. The Church is made up of people and there for capable of errors.

15 Butch: There is no way I'm going to start worshipping a lesser god like Akka, the god of homemaking. If I were to return to the ancient ways, the natural choice would be to worship Ukko Perkele, the ÃƒÂ¼bergod. But evangelish Lutheran atheism is better, so I'll stick with that.

My e-mail is mypetjawa-at-gmail-dot-com. I don't really read my yahoo account anymore since I get about a bajillion pieces of e-mail there every day. And I don't have access to my university e-mail right now since it's a pop server. Further, until last night I didn't really have internet access since my wifi card decided to melt my computer down the very first night I got to the hotel so I've only read The Jawa Report like twice in the past week.

Call me ADMIRAL Rusty Shackleford

This week I:

Atended a speech delivered by the President. Very cool since I had no idea he was going to be the key note speaker.

Met two U.S. Senators, including John McCain. The other Senator was decent enough to chat with my students for awhile.

Hung out with my Congressman for about 30 minutes too long while he blathered on and on with every liberal DNC talking point while claiming to be a 'conservative' Democrat.

Sat in on a Senate committee meeting in which Trent Lott looked incredibly bored.

Watched as John Lewis reminded a group of high school students that he was with Dr. King at the March on Washington for the bajillionth time in his life.

Was in the room as Justice Kennedy read the decision from the bench that states could not ban the import of wine---Thomas and Breyer passed notes the whole time.

Had to sit through the Junior Senator from California blathering on and on about 'extremist Republican judges' from the gallery.

Was overheard on the Hill commenting, upon passing Norm Coleman in the halls, that his wife was hot.

Had two half-smokes, three all beef kosher hot dogs, and four Mt. Dews off street carts.

Told a lobbyist representing the rent-to-own furnishings industry that his business was immoral and predatory. I take it Congressional aids aren't so forward as he stormed off in a huff.

Saw the Nationals beat the Brewers. Several yuppified liberals moved because we were beeing a tad bit too obnoxious. Don't you just love liberals-- always fighting for the 'common man' but can't stand to be near any of them.

Witnessed the head of the Israeli Air Force lay a wreathe at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

Cried as I found my grandfather's name at the new WWII memorial.

Cried again at the Holocaust Museum.

And again reading the Second Innaguaral enshrined on the walls of the Lincoln memorial.

Noticed that the Human Rights Campaign building is right across the street from the YMCA. How prosaic.

Missed my family desperately.

This town is so shallow. This town is so deep. The history I love, the politics and the people I hate.

I'll see some of you tomorrow about 8 p.m. E-mail me for directions.

Chris Short Launches Conservative Thinking

Since Rusty has given me a key to this thing and hasn't mentioned it yet, I'd like to point out I've launched a new blog today:

Conservative Thinking

For all the juicy details, go here; I think you'll like it. Please don't hesitate to let me know what you think.

Reconstituted Iraqi Army Opens Headquarters

(Baghdad, Iraq) The Iraqi Ground Forces Headquarters was inaugurated yesterday in a ceremony attended by "a small group" of Iraqi and Coalition dignitaries. The location has not been revealed, obviously for security reasons. According to a statement from Iraqi Ground Forces commander Gen. Abdul Qadir Jassim,

"We are celebrating today a historical event and the rebuilding of the Iraqi army. Having the headquarters of our ground forces here is an indication of the Iraqi army controlling its own destiny."
"Our streets have been covered in blood, and we want to clean this place with the help of our friends the Americans."

In response, Lt. Gen. John R. Vines, commander of Multi-National Corps-Iraq, stated,

"As soon as you feel you are ready, we will hand over operations. And the coalition will return to their own countries."

This is the first somewhat formal declaration of an exit point -- when the Iraqi commander believes his army can do the job -- for the Coalition Forces go home.

A New Neologism

Ace of Spades has been griping for a long time about how there's no noun available to replace the dreadful neologism "blogosphere". It's easy enough to ignore Ace, but now Maserati-drivin' Cornerite Warren Bell complains about it as well. Since both of these guys are apparently screenwriters of somewhat varying degrees of success, my sympathy is limited. Just make up your own word and stick to it, fellas.

Nonetheless, these simpering weiners may have a point. "Blogosphere" sounds sufficiently nerdy to describe most electronic media, but it doesn't go far enough. Too often we're grasping for a word that includes more than just blogs, and encompasses all the fast-turnaround pixel-based publications that fling new ideas and breaking news around like poo in a monkey house, leaving the old-fashioned media in the dirt. Drudge, Lucianne.com, Free Republic, NRO, Fark, Tech Central Station, DU, Best of the Web, all these need a word that distinguishes them, along with blogs, from those old-fashioned print and TV outlets creeping along in the left lane with their blinkers on, blissfully causing riots in Afghanistan and correcting them a week later, shaking their liver-spotted fists at us whippersnappers in our Maseratis passing them on the right.

So that word is: "The Immedia".

Yeah, Google gives many hits on "immedia" already. ("The Immedia" gets much fewer.) Someone's probably even copyrighted it. But who cares? The word does what it's supposed to do and there's no reason it can't be pressed into service, immediately.

1 "The Immedia" ? No fucking way, you have got to be joking, LMAO, that is so art-house wanky, and so been there done that. Dude, way before your time as a blogger art schools throughout the land were setting up "Intermedia" departments. It was wanky then and it sounds even wankier now. At least those guys were nice peaceful harmless types - the worst one guy ever did was eat lightbulbs live in a performance peice. Go on, I dare you, call your log "Immediac" - haH HAH HAH. I CAN'T believe I am hearing this from a 40 year old lecturer. Ditch the "media". Really. Just go with the "I". Or the "me", the "Imesphere" - now that has a ring to it. Anyway, once the teenies start playing sounds and homemade animations en mass through their sites this whole print thing is going to start looking incredibly ratty and liver-spotted (like it doesn't already). Logs, these are just logs, electronic logs and diaries, nothing more, nothing less. A bunch of scrambled letters, that's all. It's just expressionism, that's all. Degenerate expressionism manifesting itself in a world at war. Or dadaism, lacking in coherence and logic. A bunch of mashed up articles and clippings selected at random and scattered across the web. "The Immedia" LOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLL

2 How about "Accountable Media Sources Of Principle Which Expose Bias" AMSOP-WEB No? Oh well. I tried.

3 "Blog" and its derivatives always reminds me of Harrison Ford's comment to Carrie Fisher at their first reading of the "Star Wars" script. "You can read this stuff, but you can't speak it."

4 I was trying to get my arms around Immedia, but just couldn't. It sounds too much like Immodium. And that comparison will not do us any good, no matter how apt it may be. http://www.imodium.com/

5 I like blogosphere, why does it need a change? Blogosphere represents the new media and I am sure the MSM (old media)would love to see a name change fight er discussion. I dont think that the name blogosphere will ever go away, just get bigger. At lest I hope so.

6 One too many "o"s. Just Blogsphere. Tougher. Tighter. Much better than blogglobe. Blognet. Blogistan. Blogcadia. Heh. Immedia is pretentious beyond words to describe it. About 2 major layers of abstraction beyond anything relevant and usable. Anyway, these things cannot be "decided"; they happen. Wanna try another word? Run it up the Blogstaff and see who salutes!

Blogging from D.C.

Yo peeps. I'm blogging from an underground bunker deep in enemy territory. And by that I mean 'a squalid Capital Hill basement apartment. Unfortunately it's the place the Professor Chaos calls home.

The first thing you notice when coming from the backwoods of a Red State to the nation's capital are all the self-important looking young people. Wannabes of all sorts come to this modern Babylon to climb, claw, and sleep their way to the top. In many ways this place reminds me of L.A., my home town, with its hordes of young people willing to do just about anything to make big in Hollywood. But at least L.A. has a socially valuable product that people are willing to pay for.

This town is worse than Rome. At least Rome had some pretty interesting entertainment--you know, with that whole Colliseum thingy.

Here the goal is power. Here they forcefully rob the nation of its wealth and redistribute it amongst themselves.

In the Bible Rome is personafied as a whore. A whore is far too wholesome to represnt this town. Whores give you something in return and the exchange is voluntary.

What best represents D.C. then? A Rapist.

Note to Friends About D.C. Trip

Friends,

I'm heading out of here tomorrow for Washington, D.C. Last call for those in the area to meet at a small gathering set for Saturday, May 21st at about 8 p.m. at an undisclosed downtown location. E-mail me at mypetjawa-at-gmail.com for details.

I apologize for the lack of linkage to all my fellow bloggers of late. Just too dang busy. The same goes for answering a lot of e-mail. Trust me, finals week sucks twice as bad for us as it does for the students.

Anyway, I will be blogging some from D.C. Maybe I'll put up a photo or two, but posting will be very light for the next week.

Lucky for me I have some great people filling in. I know you'll enjoy what they have to say. See you in D.C.

Sick Vacation Blogging

So I went to the doctor to get the pinkeye checked out. Spend two hours waiting. What does he do? Gives me some salve and sets up an appointment with an eye doctor. What a way to waste a vacation, eh?
