Kerry's Gulag Goons
The partisan reasons for Amnesty International's disgusting and immoral 'gulag' statement become clearer every day. Let's recount: The 'non-partisan' Amnesty International is run by a Muslim women and the board is full of Kerry campaign contributors. Look, it's not that most Democrats are self-loathing anti-Americans, it's just that most self-loathing anti-Americans are Democrats. Washington Times via LGF and Scared Monkeys:
The top leadership of Amnesty International USA, which unleashed a blistering attack last week on the Bush administrationÂ’s handling of war detainees, contributed the maximum $2,000 to Sen. John KerryÂ’s presidential campaign.For more on why this is such a disgusting comparison, see my post here and contrast the worst allegations with what other released detainees are saying.Federal Election Commission records show that William F. Schulz, executive director of Amnesty USA, contributed $2,000 to Mr. KerryÂ’s campaign last year. Mr. Schulz also has contributed $1,000 to the 2006 campaign of Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, Massachusetts Democrat.
Also, Joe W. “Chip” Pitts III, board chairman of Amnesty International USA, gave the maximum $2,000 allowed by federal law to John Kerry for President. Mr. Pitts is a lawyer and entrepreneur who advises the American Civil Liberties Union.
UPDATE: AI defends disgusting use of gulag comparison.

It's not that human rights is a bad thing, Amnesty International only makes it seem that way.

Sort of similar to the League of Women voters back in the 80 election.
Regan was the first candidate to challenge the notion that they were some sort of holy institution made up of Saints. It was heresy to challenge their divine right to hold the Presidential debates. After the Regan revolution, they were exposed for exactly what they were, a very partisan group of far left liberals.
This group is cut from the same cloth and given the same free pass by the MSM. To quote them is a democrat ploy and the information is never challenged.

The inmates are running the asylum. And this woman, Khan, is the head nut.
"What we wanted to do was to send a strong message ... "
Message received, now WTF is that supposed to mean? It is complete and utter nonsense to call Gitmo a gulag and not dozens of other real, and monumentally more, abusive places. Here's my message, "Save your strong messages for Castro, Our Dear Leader, et al." She has succeded only in sending a clear and concise message to the kleptocrats and dictators of the world, "You're not really in our sights. Only in general terms."
It's not that we can't take criticism, (hell, we expect it) especially when it's well founded and in context. But this is just insane.

I especially like the al-Reuters line (from the Update link):
"The United States holds about 520 men at Guantanamo, where they are denied rights accorded under international law to prisoners of war."
With great offense, I would like to point out that under the applicable 'international law' aka Geneva Convention, we could hang them all today. One wonders if they are trying to be dishonest, or if they are merely stupid.

That explains why AI doesn't comment on terrorist Muslims beheading innocent people. Only "governments" disregard basic human rights? Also, AI is asking for access to the detainees. If no AI member has been to Gitmo, how can they compare it to a Soviet gulag and be taken seriously?

Too bad you don't feel the same about the white house exposing a cia operative to punish the author of a report they didn't like. Even if the report was true.
The article is not illegal. The White House exposure of Valerie Plame a an act of high treason.
You need to get your priorities straight.

Actually, Mr. K...you probably will vote for her. She's been best buddies with Newt G. recently! Deccles makes a very valid point, you have to admit. What happened to Valerie Plame was to quote Bush, "Absurd!". Not that I'm letting any media sources off my crook hook anytime soon.

Deccles, you need to have a reality check. Start with the timeline here: and just keep scrolling.
One other little tidbit you probably missed: Valerie Plame's cover had been blown by Aldrich Ames back in 1994. She was no longer a field agent and was assigned DC desk duties.
No cover to be blown, no crime committed. Better luck next time, Kossac.

deccles,
not a shred of proof that the white house outed Plame.
And Plame didn't seem to mind too much, as she and her husband subsequently went on a speaking tour. Apparently nobody was harmed-- unlike the treasonous shit you Libs are up to, tearing your country down and getting people killed.

Then again, if he runs I'm pretty sure he'll beat Hillary, if for no other reason than that he looks a lot more like the Great Mr. Doody than does Bill's wife. And according to my theory of US Presidential politics the candidate who most resembles Howdy wins every time.

I have to kinda go with deccles on his statement regarding Plame. Whether or not damage was done, the timing suggests there was a less than stellar motive involved. I wouldn't go so far as to say "the White House" though. It was someone "in" the White House, but the statement implies that it was a mass consensus (the White House!) to "out" her. I think it detracts from what's right and wrong about it.
However, there are some truths that kill and the press has shown a total lack of morality and common sense in this regard.

Defense Guy:
It's barely relevant to raise the Plame issue, and had her life actually been placed in danger it might have been relevant here. But it wasn't, and of course had it been there's already a law in place to deal with the issue.
Not so with regard to the press. We tolerate their general level of anti-Americanism and disregard for issues of national defense during "peace time" (as in the Glomar Explorer incident, for instance) but the only reason it's tolerated during war is the legacy of Vietnam, wherein the consensus (largely erroneous in my view) has been that they performed a service. I'd argue that by misrepresenting the Tet Offensive as a US defeat, and by publishing the Pentagon Papers, which was a self-critical study conducted by the military itself, their "service" was on behalf of the enemy.
My impression is that this President and this Congress will not challenge the press, so if anyone is to hold the press remotely accountable IT IS US.

Al Qaeda Lawyer: "My client was set up."
He must have been set up. There is no way in the world that a Muslim, a doctor, a family man, or a jazz musician could ever be a terrorist sympathizer.
A lawyer for a jazz bassist from the Bronx who was charged in a terror case today claimed his client and a co-defendant arrested in Florida had been ensnared in a trap set by government investigators.Wow, this guy better get a new lawyer fast-like. Yes, Anthony, this was a sting operation. I think the word your looking for was entrapment. A sting operation is when the good guys set up the bad guys so that they're caught doing something bad. Entrapment is when the good guys put another good guy into the position that they have no choice but to do something bad. The former is a legitimate police tactic, the latter is not. more..."It's a sting operation," Anthony Ricco, a lawyer for Tarik Shah, 42, told reporters after Shah appeared before a federal magistrate in Manhattan and was ordered held without bail.

I see the words "alleged" in front of the "pledged their allegiance to Al-Qaida" unlike the solid evidence of the Video, and undercover FBI agents testimony this sounds like conjecture, possibly from a different (perhaps paid informant) source ?

Well Thanos, I have to say you appear to come to a conclusion before proving the equation, in your statement :
"build bombs and guns for his fellow Muslim TERRORISTS", as I said what makes these people different from a militia that claims to be preparing for the downfall of society? you also made the distinction between "running around the woods pretending to be soldier" and then saying they wish to "bring down the government" that is my only point, I am not a Muslim apologist -- my point is other than the fact they are men of middle eastern decent and are Muslims what makes this different? because of a statement of dubious veracity that they pledged allegiance to Al-Quada. Where is the distinction that they have crossed the line from gun nuts, to Terrorists?

Sir,
While I see your summary of "more likely than not" that is not the standard on which they will be prosecuted, which is a much higher standard.
Your statement relies on the fact that "someone" alleged that the group pledged their allegement to Al-Qaeda - that neither appears to be made on Video tape, nor does it seem to be a quote from a Federal agent involved in the case (hence the words "alleged" in front of the statement) may I remind you that in any statement to the Police I can likewise allege you are involved in an Al-Qaeda cell. It does not make that statement truthful.

let me first start out by saying that I agree with most of the statements here about the dangers of the spread of radical Islam. What I am questioning however, is the difference under the 1st Amendment which makes the difference between "thought" and "true threats" this is what I was questioning when I asked about a specific plot to injure, or kill citizens which would move it from a "milita" to a cell.
Preparing for Urban warfare is evidently not a crime, due to the amount of American militias that go unchecked, they must have not acquired the Firearms they were wishing to obtain, otherwise I believe the AFT would have been involved. The idealism of a Muslim only Karate club isn't illegal either. So it appears that the whole case hinges on INTENT to obtain weapons, and train for combat, and is then coupled with the questionable statement they swore allegence to Al-Qaeda, as you have stated about hearsay, without a reliable source to that statement, this likewise is hearsay, only supported by the facts that the men are of Middle eastern descent and are Muslims. Do I say wait till they commit violence until we arrest them? no. however I would like to know they specifically had a plan in mind to do harm, that would move it from a "thought" to an "action".

Posted by: dave at May 31, 2005 08:35 PM (/r9Xb)

Dave, our system isn't perfect, but it's the best. There have been many instances whereby a person was dragged through the courts, found guilty and served time before their innocence was proven. I won't speak for these cases you mention because I don't know enough about them, but in other cases, due dilligence was followed and even though they were innocent they were found guilty. So many times there was no malice, just a desire to get to the truth and if no laws were broken in the process then an apology is really kind of empty rhetoric. Somehow I don't think an apology will satisfy them. If they find that laws were broken in order to prosecute then they have recourse to go to trial and counter-sue to get whatever reparations they think they deserve. Our courts work both ways.

these guys aren't arabic or of middle-eastern descent. These are black muslims- african americans- like Malcom X. Check the bow tie on the lawyer- I bet he is a member of NOI- Nation of Islam. There is a wide, national network of millions of american muslims that are growing closer and closer to signing up with AQ as the blatant war on islam abroad continues, and the war against blacks and browns at home continues. OBL already knows he can recruit and tap into these disenfranchised communities in the us- blacks, latinos, asians, even whites like Johnny Walker. The prison population in the us is one of the highest in the world- filled with people embittered by this system, many converting to islam- this is ground zero for recruiting. Once these folk hit the streets it's on. In urban areas of the east coast, where I live, it is common in my neighborhood to see black muslim women wearing a burkha like garment- everything covered except the eyes. You can best believe there is something going on, simmering beneath the surface waiting to reveal itself. There is a big difference between people who talk and those who actually are doing. It seems that the homeland security is busy with talkers, while the doers continue to do their thing. I don't think this will be the last we hear of this kind of thing. There will be more to come and before long homeland security be coming after you for your thought crimes.

Scarface: The best weapon we have is knowledge. I think the media does us a favor in many regards as they do tend to lean left and are suspicious of everything our government does. I get a little upset when they don't balance it out with more "truth", but believe you me, I listen and wait. Suspicion is good, but let's use that knowledge given us and learn what is BS and what is cause for alarm. I'm suspicious of those who buy into every single conspiracy regarding "thought police". Conspiracy works both ways. Some would have us all believe that our government is conspiring against us and others would have us believe that our government is being conspired against. I think it's a little of both. We'll know where to draw the line when we come to it, item by item.

I personally know brother Tarik Shah. He's like a Muslim Steven Segal. He's very dangerous in hand to hand combat and edged weapons but calling him a terrorist is a big stretch. The guy is in his 40s. If he was going to committ a terrorist act, he would've done so by now. While he has the potential to be a terrorist, I know personally he's more talk than action. What the FBI did to him was entrapment. Ten more years could go by and he'd still be saying he trains brothers for Jihad with nothing ever coming of it. Trust me.

Have any of you ever been involved in a police investigation? Ok, now have any of you ever been involved in an FBI investigation. If history and experience is any indicator we can assume that a good 75% of what is said before and indictment is bullshit. "Jazz musician as just a cover"?? BULLSHIT. Becoming a jazz musician isn't a matter of picking up an instrument and learning the notes, it's a life long evolution and it's incredibly fucking difficult. To get to the point where you're doing session work as a bassist(as Shah was) you've generally got 20 years of playing behind you, 4 to 8 years of university study, and a wealth of musical knowledge that most symphony musicians don't even have. This entire thing, to me, reeeeeeks of BS.
The fact that they spun the jazz musician thing that way should have you all questioning everything else they stated. Another relevant fact not mentioned above is that the undercover agent was NOT an FBI agent, but a criminal working on a plea agreement. They have also tried to paint him as a 'deadbeat dad'(this is from the FBI report) even though a recent interview with his wife has her praising him as a good father and provider. Hell, they even cast his entrepreneurial enthusiasm in a bad light(yeah uhm, did anybody actually read the FBI documents? They're public...no pictures though so maybe you can find it in audiobook format if you look around).
He wanted to teach hand-to-hand combat to Muslims. So. Fucking. What. I think it's sad and incredibly scary that you guys are just going to sit back and nod your heads while your government charges people with "WILLINGNESS" to do anything. His doctor friend, by the way, is being charged with WILLINGNESS to treat insurgents in S.A. Is a doctor not morally bound to treat anyone who is in need of medical attention?
Entrapment is when you're led to do a crime that you wouldn't have otherwise commited. These guys didn't even do that.. they simply stated their WILLINGNESS to do something that clashes with blindly two-faced american ideals. How many of you have never said "I'd like to kick the shit out of that guy" who stole your girl or dented your car. Well, you had better accept the possibility of going to jail for WILLINGNESS to commit an act of violence if you're going to accept what the FBI is dealing to this poor dude.

Some people will be offended no matter what you do
According to the AP, another group of veterans has managed to become offended. This time over the unveiling of a statue. It seems that in Ft. Edward, NY, a statue of Maj. Robert Rogers is being unveiled this Memorial Day weekend. For those of you not "in the know", Maj. Rogers wrote a field manual that became the basis for modern Army Ranger fighting tactics. So why would this statue offend anyone? Well, it's not the statue so much as the timing.
But some veterans believe unveiling the monument on Memorial Day is insensitive because Rogers was loyal to England during the Revolutionary War.
"I think it's a travesty that we would think about honoring a person, especially someone who fought against us, on that day," said Bob Bearor, who served in the Army's 101st Airborne Division in the 1960s. "It's a sacred day. ... Let's honor our dead who died for our country."
OK, being a vet myself, I'm as sensitive to veterans' causes as anyone. But come on, let's get real here. No one is trying to offend anyone by unveiling this statue on Memorial Day. The thought process is easy to see. Maj. Rogers was a military man, and Memorial Day is the day to honor the military. If you're getting offended because of this, you're looking too hard for something to offend you. Seriously. Lighten up a bit.
With the number of stories like this appearing, I really have to wonder if media editors don't send their reporters out looking for them.

The fact that the commander-in-chief is the man most handed by the MSM isn't helping either. I wonder what would happen if a Democrat were elected President?
Would these stories fall to the way side? Would the MSM be content for at least four years?

The way I see it, some people only see things in black and white; they are absolutists. Those are often the best people to have on your side when things go wrong. Relativists, on the other hand, while better at theoretical conversation, are generally of little use when it's time to bust heads.

Well, now I''m totally confused.
My experience on the Jawa Report is that readers are sensitive about patriotism. Minor disagreements with US policy are looked at suspiciously and deemed to be unpatriotic.
Rogers is a man who was loyal to the enemy. Isn't that an unpatriotic act to the degree that the man is undeserving of being honored?
Personally, I don't care if the man gets a statue or not. I'm just remarking about the apparent inconsistancy on the issue of patriotism that is being displayed by Jawa readers.

His choice to remain loyal to England was a choice many made. There wer good arguments on both sides. They either stayed here or went back to the mother country, which I believe is what Rogers did. He was an asset during the French and Ind-i-an War, no?
We have no problem honoring Cofederate soldiers on Civil War battlefields who directly fought against the Union. Again, they had some darn good reasons.
These complainers need a life.

Ok, so Rogers was loyal to England during the revolutionary war. So why is it "insenitive" for Memorial Day? Seems like it would be ALOT more "insensitive" to unveil his statue on Independance Day.

Yes. The man made his choice. It doesn't detract for what he did during the F&I War. He decided to not side with what was not even a country then. Perhaps he was more of a pratriot then the Masonic, Leftist elitists who started the revolution.
Heh Heh. Awaiting the deluge...

So, it's a privately funded statue that's set up on a privately funded site paid for by a private group.
For all I care, the outraged retired Rangers can parachute in at night and cut the head off the goddamn statue, holding it for ransom, or, as an alternate solution, fund a statue of George Washington dropping trou, have it cast, and place it near Maj. Roberts.

Banned in the UK: Abu Hamza al-Masri Quotes from Terror Tracker
Neil Doyle is the author of Terror Tracker and runs his own website here. I've been aware of Neil's work for some time. Much of what he publishes on his website mirrors my own anti-terrorism posts.
Neil Doyle is the author of Terror Tracker and runs his own website here. I've been aware of Neil's work for some time. Much of what he publishes on his website mirrors my own anti-terrorism posts. A new and updated paperback version of Terror Tracker is soon to be available in both the U.S. and U.K. In the U.S. you can order it at Amazon here. One important aspect of the book is that it reveals statements from a former imam at London's Finsburry Park Mosque, the radical hook-handed cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri. Abu Hamza was arrested one year ago today in London on charges that he conspired to build a terrorist network in Oregon. He is currently rotting--literally, his body is covered in sores because he refuses to shower--in a Belmarsh prison.
However, UK readers may not know much of Abu Hamza's statements. UK newspapers are barred from reporting this at the moment, as the case is subject to censorship pending extradition hearings. So, no mention of Terror Tracker in the UK because enquiring Britons may just want to read what Abu Hamza has been thinking all these many years. The book is also a tad embarrassing for the police, as their key evidence was out in print before they even charged the guy, yet the public is not allowed to know this.
Free speech indeed.
In the spirit of free speech and wishing the British people to know what kind of filth has been living amongst them and taking advantage of their good will these past decades, all the while plotting the destruction of their liberty and democratic institutions, The Jawa Report presents quotes from Neil Doyle's Terror Tracker. Warning: If you're a UK blogger do not reprint as that might get you thrown in jail. Or, you know, reprint them, in an act of civil disobedience.
According to Abu Hamza, Jewish people were subhuman and no further up the evolutionary scale than monkeys. It was Allah's will that they should be exterminated. He even seemed to suggest that Adolf Hitler had been sent to earth by Allah to carry out the task. 'Not only did they become monkeys, but Allah put a law on Earth that wherever always Allah will send in people to humiliate them, to kill them, and to punish them. And Hitler is not far from us,' said Hamza....More quotes later...."All the Israelis are fighters. They all fight. That's why anybody over 15
he is a warrior and he should be killed!"

Dear Glen,
The United States and the IRA
After the troubles began anew in 1969, the IRA set up fundraising in the United States. The money went generally to the cause, not necessarily to the fighters. The US didn't do much to suppress this fundraising in the 1970s.
Eventually the US housed an IRA arms network. Supporters shipped ArmaLite rifles by the dozen. This small amount went a long way in the relatively unarmed Northern Ireland. The IRA also had a relocation program of sorts here, for people who had to avoid capture across the pond.

For what it's worth, I'm mentioned in Chapter 3 of the "Terror Tracker" book. (It's a true story).
Glen Jenvey (two posts ago) is also in the book.
"gg" RE: "The United States and the IRA" -- have you considered that the major source of Islamist recruitment, propaganda, funding, etc. has been the from the USA? I'm not saying that the US Govt. financed it, but I am saying that you can physically trace the sites to USA servers.
I'm also saying that the FBI, CIA, NSA, and other three letter acronyms are not investigating the problem -- they appear to be actively covering the problem up.

0:00 My dear brothers we still continue to identify the second enemy of Islam which are Jews. Allah identified them as the enemies of him. [?] They lie about Allah, as we said, last time. The enemies of his angels, as we have said “we don’t like Gabriel, because he is the angel of war”
0:33 Allah sent his [?] messenger and they killed him as they said “we have killed Jesus, the messenger of Allah and the son of Mary” knowing that he is the messenger of Allah [?] and his mother. Alah said that they are the enemies of his books. They change the books, they twist the books. They believe in some of the books and disbelieve in some of the books. Allah said for them that you know that is it is haram, and forbidden to you to take a ransom for some of you and you fight some of you and you take them out of the positions and out of their houses. It’s haram for you.
1:13 and yet, when it comes, and when it comes that you take them as captives, you pay the ransom for you. So you do some of the book and you disbelieve some of the book. You do some actions which Allah said them as command. And you do some actions which Allah forbid for you, and you say this is your religion. Then Allah says: this means you believe in some of the book, and you disbelieve in some of, in the other, in the other some of the book and this is the biggest disbelief.
1:40 And this is to answer the people, the [?] of our time, who are saying that actions cannot take a peron out of Islam. No. Some actions takes a person out of Islam, even if he doesnÂ’t believe it will take him out of Islam or out of his religion, because Allah identified them as believing in some of the book and not believing in some of the book through their actions, not through their hearts,
2:04 and he promised them the fire hell, eternity in fire hell, because of their actions. He does not mention what is in their hearts, so be aware of those things, of their actions, you could be some of them. You could be believing in some of the book, and disbelieving in the other some of the book. Allah identified them as eating the money of people with [?] with [?].
2:30 Allah said that some of them you attract him with very large amount and he will give it to you back. Others: you will attract him with only one dinar, and you will never have it, because they have made the statement, and they have made the law amongst themselves, that we have got no responsibility, and no oath whatsoever towards the illiterate, which is other than themsleves,
3:00 so they made it halal for them to lie to other people, to kill other people, to take the money of other people, as long as they are not from their descendants, or from their family. Allah also described them in very important issues which we need to know, in order to deal with them. When we talk, we should know how to talk with them. When we fight, we should know how to fight with them.
3:30 What is their mentality. What is their pscyhe. All this we get from the Quran. Not from the evening standard. Not from the Sun. Not from the documentary, even though it looks very real. It is not real. Allah has said this people, “I have imposed humiliation upon them because they disbelive in me.” So why now they are not very humiliated. Why now we are the humiliated people and they are not?
4:00 Certainly because we have left jihad according to the hadith. We have been very interested just for money and for positions, and [?] said that if you do so, and you get involved with [ribis/interest?] wealth and usury, then Allah will impose on you, Muslims, the humiliation, which will never be taken from amongst you, and if you go back to your religion—means jihad,
4:30 because if you left jihad, Allah [?], the humiliation will not be lifted until you go back to your religion—means jihad in the cause of Allah, fighting the enemies. So, now you’ve got a bit of courage, and Muslims got a bit of this courage—or a lot of this courage—and this is why they give us the humiliation, and they take the mastership from Muslims. Now: But Allah has said something very important to show how negelected we have in our religion for these sons of monkeys to rule upon us, above his Quran, as sons of monkeys.
5:01 The story of the evolution, not all of it is wrong, you know, because Darwin, he was so [?] by Jews, he wanted to establish a link between human beings and the monkeys. Why. Because he was so afraid to find his own grandfather is the Jew. The first monkey. The first ape. So he wanted to prove it to the people from the other way around.
5:30 The first of man is the monkey. No! The source of monkey is a man. And heÂ’s a Jew. That is what Allah said in the Quran. [Arabic.] Allah said this in Surah 15, We have created mankind in the best form, then we have descended into this death.
6:03 Death form. [?]. [Arabic] And you know those who have [?] in the Sabbath, we have [?] them to become monkeys. Dirty monkeys. So Allah described them as monkeys. And those monkeys: your president bows down to them. And they coming back to have a bite of you.
6:33 Allah described them as monkeys and we deal with them as masters. Allah show us that you have cowards. He said: and if they fight you, certainly they will run. No doubt they will run; I will make them run. In Surah [?], but yet, we donÂ’t have chance to fight them. The [?] to [?] to protect them , not to protect us. So how can we reach them? To whom weÂ’re gonna get our backs?
7:00 Allah said they are very cowards. They have said to Moses when Allah have said “go and take this holy land,” they said to him “No way.” There is very strong people inside. If they go out, we will go in, otherwise never. And when they were [?] by Moses and some of the believers, they said “No way, absolutely never. Go on, fight with your G-d, we are here staying. If it comes to the matter that we either fight, or we leave the religion: We leave the religion! This is the mentality.
7:35 This is why, after 5,000 years or more, they remember the promise, but they found the fools who would pay the price for them. They will find the fools like [?] who is going to defend them, and come in, and heÂ’s upset because heÂ’s working for Jews, and he stays in the land of Jews. HeÂ’s very upset to stand to defend the Jews, who make him the monkey of the Jews, even though they are monkeys of the believers [?] for the second time:
8:03 Go to you Jews, and pray in the synagogue, and leave us alone. My dear brothers, it is not a joke. You are [?] of Europe. You are taking from the charity of the prostitute. And you are giving charity to the prostitute. So it is not a joke. DonÂ’t come here and ask me to give you a quick [?], so you donÂ’t have a parking meter ticket. No! If you want [?] there is hundreds of mosques there who are gonna tell you that you are the sons of Omar al-Khattab, just put five pounds in the box.
8:36 My responsibility is to tell you the truth. YouÂ’ve wasted yourself. YouÂ’ve wasted your religion, and your families and your children. What else you gonna waste? Allah has identified them the most cowards of all, and yet, their women: they jump from helicopters, and they go under the tunnel, and they go to the Himalayas, and they shoot our men like a video games,
9:00 and we have large big people are now afraid from dark. They donÂ’t know the difference from a potato and a hand grenade. And they call themselves the son of the sahaba [companions of the prophet]. What is that logic? What is that logic? Where are you gonna go next after you go to the [?]? In the stomach of the fish? Or in the fire-hell. Allah identified these people as the most enemies of him and the believers. WeÂ’ve got to deal with them that way.
9:31 And not because we are weak, we should leave the truth behind us. Let us know the truth. [Arabic: the prophet may peace be upon him] when he was very weak in Mecca, when he had no followers in Mecca, he stand firm, and he said to Qurayish, “By Allah, Qurayish, I came to you with a massacre; with a slaughtering. [Arabic.] Those who are saying you are afraid, [?] weak now, and they are liars. Even if though we are oppressed and weak, we are still have to deliver the truth, even if we cannot to deliver it.
10:07 We have to send, even if we cannot amake it through. For our children to grow in the truth. Enough promises from those thieverous scholars who are eating with [Arabic affirmation of one god]. Let us know the truth. And if we are disbled to do it, let us ask others to do it. Let us be fair with ourselves. InshÂ’allah we shall continue next time [closes with prayer request for mujahideen leader in Kashmir]

RADICAL ISLAMIC CLERIC CALLS JEWS "MONKEYS" AND "ENEMIES OF ISLAM"
In a preaching tape of jailed radical Islamic cleric Abu Hamza obtained by British citizen and freelance investigator Glen Jenvey, Hamza makes frequent references to Jews as monkeys and enemies of Islam.
Hamza (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3752517.stm) has been in prison in the UK since May 2004, when he was held at the request of American authorities, who want him extradited to face charges of trying to build a terrorist training camp in Oregon.
Since then, Britain's Lifestyle Extra reported (www.lse.co.uk/ShowStory.asp?story=NL712421F&news_headline=abu_hamza_covered_in_scabs), Hamza has been charged in the UK with 16 offences including racial hatred and soliciting others to murder non-believers.
Hamza will face charges in the UK in July before any decision is made about his case here. British authorities are also trying to revoke his UK citizenship.
One blog ( http://mypetjawa.mu.nu/archives/084320.php) reported that British readers may be unaware of Hamza's statements, as the country's newspapers are currently banned from reporting on the case due to "censorship pending extradition hearings."
CITIZEN SPY
Jenvey made a major contribution to Hamza's incarceration. He set up a false Islamic extremist Web site using a pseudonym. His intention was for his site to entrap terrorists.
It worked. Hamza landed onto Jenvey's site and began e-mailing him. Hamza's trust of Jenvey increased to the point where Hamza ended up providing Jenvey with both audio and video tapes of private meetings.
As CBS News pointed out in a 2004 profile on Jenvey (www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/08/16/eveningnews/main636344.shtml), while Hamza had often verbally supported the committing of terrorist acts abroad in his sermons, he had protected himself from British anti-terror laws by never publicly calling for violent action within the U.K.
But the tapes obtained by Jenvey told a different tale -- one of incitement to acts of terror in the U.K. and the U.S.
Hamza privately encouraged his British and American followers to violence, saying "A land for jihad is in Afghanistan. If you are more courageous, you should do another Afghanistan in your own country."
It was statements like this, CBS reported, that provided enough evidence of apparent incitement for both British and American law enforcement to pounce on Hamza.
In an e-mail interview Jenvey said when he first heard Hamza's words he felt as if he was listening to "pure evil." He reported his findings to the British police, "and a number of military attaches in London."
He added, "I feel that a place of worship being used as a place of terror whatever the faith is an evil act against God. We must (work) hard, so that people like Abu Hamza who are hiding behind their faith to spread evil mixed with racist speeches and political rubbish, get no mercy in the courts and are stopped from spreading terror around the globe."
HAMZA ON THE JEWS
In another one of the tapes Hamza says, "So Allah described (the Jews) as monkeys. And those monkeys, (you) bow down to them. And they (are) coming back to have a bite of you. Allah described them as monkeys and we deal with them as masters."
Hamza even defends Darwin's theory of evolution, saying it wasn't all wrong.
"Darwin ... wanted to establish a link between human beings and the monkeys. Why? Because he was so afraid to find his own grandfather is the Jew. The first monkey. The first ape."
Allah called the Jews "cowards," Hamza says. "They have said to Moses when Allah said, ‘go and take this holy land,' ... ‘No way. There is very strong people inside. If they go out, we will go in, otherwise never.'"
Hamza says the Jewish response when told to take the promised land was, "If it comes to the matter that we either fight, or we leave the religion: We leave the religion! This is the mentality."
Hamza says Allah calls the Jews "the enemies of his books. They change the books, they twist the books. They believe in some of the books and disbelieve in some of the books."
That attitude, says Hamza, has resulted in their "humiliation."
"Allah has said, ‘this people," Hamza says, ‘I have imposed humiliation upon them because they disbelieve in me.' So why now they are not very humiliated? Why now we are the humiliated people and they are not?"
Because Muslims have neglected their obligation for jihad, or holy war, Hamza says.
"We have been very interested just for money and for positions, and (Allah) said that if you do so, and you get involved with ... wealth and usury, then Allah will impose on you Muslims the humiliation which will ... not be lifted until you go back to ... jihad in the cause of Allah, fighting the enemies."
Hamza says that Muslims have really neglected their religion to allow the Jews, "these sons of monkeys to rule upon us, above his Quran."
Hamza says that some Muslims even defend the Jews because they work for them and live in their land.
To those Muslims who do that, Hamza says "Go to your Jews, and pray in the synagogue, and leave us alone. My dear brothers, it is not a joke ... You are taking from the charity of the prostitute and you are giving charity to the prostitute."
Hamza scolds his listeners and says he is responsible to tell them the truth.
"You've wasted yourself. You've wasted your religion, and your families and your children. What else you gonna waste? ... And we have ... people (who) are now afraid from dark. They don't know the difference from a potato and a hand grenade."
However, Hamza continues, just because some Muslims are weak doesn't mean they should neglect the truth.
He says, "When (the prophet) was very weak in Mecca, when he had no followers in Mecca, he stood firm, and he said to Qurayish (www.defendamerica.mil/articles/a111601a.html), ‘By Allah, Qurayish, I came to you with a massacre; with a slaughtering ... Those who are saying you are afraid ... (and) weak ... they are liars. Even if we are oppressed and weak, we still have to deliver the truth.'"
Hamza says it is essential for his listeners to take action if their children are to grow up in the truth.
"Enough promises from those (thieving) scholars ... Let us know the truth," Hamza says. "And if we are disabled to do it, let us ask others to do it. Let us be fair with ourselves. (If Allah permits) we shall continue next time."
Hamza closes with a prayer request for the mujahidin leader in the Kashmir (www.kashmir-information.com).
The tapes also served another purpose. They showed that American James Ujaama, a well-known Islamic activist in the Seattle-area who had denied knowing Hamza, did indeed know him. Ujaama was charged with conspiring to set up an al Qaeda terrorist training camp in rural Oregon in an attempt to further promote "violent jihad" against the United States.
However, in the end Ujaama pleaded guilty on the lesser charges of bringing money, computer equipment, and a recruit to the Taliban (www.globalpolicy.org/empire/terrorwar/analysis/2005/0316courtterror.htm). His plea was entered in exchange for his cooperation in terrorism investigations.

abu hamza the outspoken terrorist cleric based in london has been given more protection in the lead up to his trail by red faced british home office and police officials the british media are now banned from reporting even his name in the press in a soviet union style blanket ban. the ban goes so far as to ban newspapers in the UK reporting on the book TERROR TRACKER By neil doyle. which was a major force that led to hamza arrest the book gives quotes from video's and audio tapes which abu hamza gave to british spy glen jenvey.. several writers feel the government and police ban on the press is uncalled for as hamza before his arrest made public insulting speeches in the streets of london and inside the finsbury park terror mosque open for all to hear. an insider on the case say's it's just a soviet style attack on free press we hope the press will be allowed to report the trail.abu hamza threats and racist remarks and membership to al-qaeda are well known it's now time to stop hiding behind red faces said mr jenvey in an interview and except fact's the UK was used and is being used as a base by terrorist's. and the press and book writers should be allowed to record history and given their pens back.

And they're using the Italian courts to further that agenda. How pathetic. And the Italians are letting them! This kind of appeasement will be the death of all of us. Are they going to sue Dan Brown for the Davinci Code? What's that? No? Of course not. The Catholics are certainly offended though. And there's a lot more of them in Italy than Muslims.

The Muslim majority is what we in Finland call "hiljainen enemmistö", people who don't think they can influence anything and don't want to go through trouble for nothing. They need to be shown a path to get power, or else they will just continue shutting up about everything and avoiding problems and issues as much as they can.

Rusty,
A reader from Italy sent me the judge's contact info. How about helping to make sure that the judge hears from the world that supporting Islam against free speech, and being a dhimmi, is something that the world will not let him live down - he's going to be famous for being a Muslim supporting dhimmi and being anti-free speech. He needs thousands of emails.

Mexico Uber Alles
Overheard at a rally at the Baldwin Park, CA, Metrolink station,
"Too bad Osama Bin Laden didn't have a hydrogen bomb
to drop on that Jewish shit hole called Manhattan..."
"Osama Bin Laden Rules!
"Zarqawi the Gringo killer, yes!, yes"
I've been out of the loop for awhile so maybe you've already seen this. They've got video. It's pretty freaking disgusting.
Hat tip: Pixy Misa
Parenthetically I used to live about 3 or 4 miles down the road from the Baldwin Park Metrolink station and had been there dozens of times. I never once noticed the anti-American slogans until I saw this story explode on the blogosphere several weeks ago.

Well, I guess even 200 years later some people still feel like they were exterminated or taken over...which, mind you is what really happened. BUT, that does not justify clocking old ladies or extreme hate. Seems like a mosquito trying to bite an elephant's ass. Off the subject...a different point of view on the News"weak" thing: http://villagevoice.com/news/0521,tomorrow,64227,9.html

Idiots like these are going to keep on until white people are forced to start killing anyone with brown skin in this country, and I think that's what they want, to start a war. Idiots. It shouldn't be long now. I figure 10,000 rounds of ammo should last me a while, but no need to take chances, I'll feel much better when I have about ten times that stashed away.

These seditious pigs should be stripped of citizenship and deported to the further reaches of Guatemala never to be seen from again.
Aztlanism wants to turn the American Southwest into the shithole that is Meso America. And if they succeed, in another 50 years, that shithole will still be an economic basketcase, only this time it will include the American Southwest. And its refugees will still be flooding across the border looking to whitey for relief.

That one loud mouthed Mexican female who said "go back to Europe." I'd have to say if it wasn't for Europeans, she'd be on a cot with her legs spread to get a bite to eat for herself and her brood. Wait, she'd have welfare and charity coming from Europeans, errrr, well, maybe not.
I can't help but contradict this "work ethic" that people claim Mexicans have over Europeans. I work mowing lawns to keep my FAFSAs coming for my Bachelors degree. I work 9 hours a day somedays and only 6 other days. Even when I work 9 hours I am still ready for more but my boss isn't. Today when I was walking back to my place as the roads are all torn up fromo construction work being done on them. I saw a mexican in a bobcat taking a nap on the job. WORK ETHIC I TELL YA! I bust my ass working and I never take a nap on the job. Cheap labor I guess, you get what you pay for.

Let's see...
Indians: Few occasional sacrifices for 20'000 years...
~1'000'000 people perhaps
Spaniards: Wipeing out dozens of Indian tribes/nations while systematically killing all non-Christians and heretics in Europe...
about the same numbers Hitler had with Jews
Conclusion: Yup, Spain was definitely more murderous and brutal. Even in ritual religious killings, if counted per year.

Not really native Americans back then, more like Mongols exploring their northern areas. Indians and eskimos still look quite like Mongols, their genetic mapping was only slightly changed by the need to adjust to different environments. (Jungle indians grew skinnier, eskimos smaller and stronger-boned, prairie indians got browner when the intense sunshine eliminated the paler shaded ones, and ,excluding eskimos, facial features softened because they no longer lived in such harsh conditions)

To compare the Spanish inquisition to the ritual slaughter of the Aztecs is Liberal MORONITY. Shows how dumbed down Libs are.
"....the Spanish Inquisition, in spite of wildly inflated estimates of the numbers of its victims, acted with considerable restraint in inflicting the death penalty, far more restraint than was demonstrated in secular tribunals elsewhere in Europe that dealt with the same kinds of offenses. The best estimate is that around 3000 death sentences were carried out in Spain by Inquisitorial verdict between 1550 and 1800, a far smaller number than that in comparable secular courts."
--Inquisition by Edward Peters (The Free Press/Macmillan, 1988 [Univ of CA Press, 1989])
the numbers were even fewer in the rest of Europe. But the Aztecs? Behold:
"In 1487 Aztec priests sacrificed more than 80,000 prisoners of war at the dedication of the reconstructed temple of the sun god in Tenochtitlán."

greg,
legend according to Liberal brown people apologists.
How about this:
One sixteenth-century account states that 20,000 were sacrificed yearly in the capital city alone, another reports this as 20,000 infants, and a third claims the same number as being slaughtered throughout the Aztec empire on a single particular day. The most famous specific sacrifice took place in 1487 at the dedication of the main pyramid in Tenochtitlán. Here, too, figures vary: one source states 20,000, another 72,344, and several give 80,400.
Recently, Borah, possibly the leading authority on the demography of Mexico at the time of the conquest, has also revised the estimated number of persons sacrificed in central Mexico in the fifteenth century to 250,000 per year, equivalent to one percent of the total population. According to Borah, this figure is consistent with the sacrifice of an estimated 1,000 to 3,000 persons yearly at the largest of the thousands of temples scattered throughout the Aztec Triple Alliance. The numbers, of course, were fewer at the lesser temples, and may have shaded down to zero at the smallest.

Oh wait, if 250'000 was 1% of the population, does it mean the conquistadors killed 25'000'000 people, and that's just the Aztec numbers?!

Finn,
the spaniards did not eradicate the indian population to the extent that the english did in north america. They simply toppled the indigenous aristocracies and then intermarried with the population over the centuries. Your average mexican today is a spanish/aztec mix.

the Maya are further south than Mexico, in Guatemala. And my understanding is that the Mexican government is very strict about any of them trying to cross north into Mexico. Nice double standard.

greg,
Are you just feigning ignorance out of boredom? Modern mexicans and guatemalans are the descendants of Aztecs and Mayans, with some spanish blood sprinkled in. They're called 'mestizos'.
And FYI-- because it isn't common knowledge-- the Maya civilization collapsed hundreds of years before the spaniards even arrived. Nobody knows why, but you can probably blame the Aztecs for that.

"By the way, can someone explain to me why the Bush Administration is harboring a known terrorist?"
deccles,
because this known terrorist doesn't have a hatred of America-- as per Rusty's comment-- but rather of Castro. So how does an anti-Castro terrorist make the kettle black when it's completely unrelated to the Left's hatred of America. I don't get it. Where you just looking for any thread on any blog to copy and paste that?
Posted by Carlos at May 24, 2005 07:30 PM
Actually Carlos, my comment to Rusty has nothing to do with my terrorist post. I was referring to another post he made.
I added the link regarding the terrorist because this original article seemed to at least refer to the subject of terrorism.
I only do this because Rusty will never post anything that might show Bush's true colors.

Carlos,
I’m reminded of a psychological study that was done some 25 years ago. In the study, 5 year old American black boys and girls were asked to draw “a pretty girl”. Invariably they drew a white girl with blond hair. Such is the insidious nature of Whitey’s program that by the age of 5 one has already been indooctrinated. You have been indoctrinated by this same program to the extent that you have become a self-hatter. It’s ugly and I feel for you.

You guys need to do a little more homework. Mexicans are not Aztecs and never were. First of all, a mestizo is a person of mixed European and native American ancestry (not just Aztec) -- the mestizo Mexicans of today are the descendents of Europeans (primarily Spaniards) and multitudes of indigenous peoples from Mexico (Tetzcocans, Zapotecans, Matlatzincans, Mixtecans, Mayans, Tlaxcalans, Totonacans, Huaxtecans, Tarascans, etc., etc. and Aztecs).
Second, the Aztecs were ALWAYS a minority in Mexico. They occupied a relatively small area of central Mexico and commanded an empire that lasted less than three hundred years. Their empire was large but it was mostly populated by the native people who generally governed themselves. Only the peoples geographically close to the Aztecs even spoke the same language (Nahuatl). In the end, a large portion of the Aztecs were killed by the Spaniards by starvation, disease or in battle.
So to sum up for the Aztlan and Mecha losers, modern Mexicans are not Aztecs and the chances that they have a drop of Aztec blood are slim to none.

Killing young people was the Aztec way of birth control. Brutal? Yes, but they didn't have the food or the space for them in big Aztec cities.
If they had had condoms or known the week in the period circle sex is childless they wouldn't have had to slaughter them. So they had to, but for starvation, not a career or body figures that can be easily fixed (well, the body everywhere, career pretty difficult in most countries) after the 1,5 years the child needs it's mother most of the time.

An embryo is just what I described it. As for when do I consider it
to be human, DUH, when it is born and breathing. As in LIVING AND BREATHING. And yes it is a parasite. Until it is born, it is feeding
off it's host, weaking it's host. It is much like a tumor. The only
difference is that the embryo has much more "potential". If we are
going to say that getting rid of a potential life is a sin, then
any woman who has had a menstrual cycle or any man who spanked his monkey is committing sin. They are wasting the potential of life.
Actually any man who unloads for any other reason then to create a
child is committing sin. (Using condoms, his partner is on the pill,
sponge ect.)
The problem is that the majority of people in this world
are so egotistical, that they truly believe that they do not consider
themselves animals which is what they really are. Do you think that if a starving lion sees any one of us is going to stop and think, woah, I'm hungry, but they guy has a soul so I can't eat him. I don't think so. Or what if some ET(outworlder) visit our planet. I am sure
they are going to think we are another class of guinea pigs to study
just like the rest of the animals in the world. Don't get me wrong,
I still think Humans are the top of the animal kingdom, but we are animals none the less. Soul or souless, just look at the actions
of every animal on the planet and you can see a lot of things in common.

I appreciate your honesty. If you live in a universe where there is no God, then it is as you say and we are nothing but animals. Logically, abortion would therefore be no more disturbing to you than slaughtering a chicken or swatting a mosquito, and logically it would also justify all the crimes committed by godless atheists in the 20th century. And horrible as those crimes seem, in a Godless universe, no big deal. That's what made the 20th century such a bloody one.

Finn, It is not my religion to have unprotected sex. I am trying
to point out (to the extreme) what the Conservative Right wants us
to believe. That life begins at conception, and I am saying only
the potential for life begins at conception. Life does not begin until
one is born ( as in ,once again, Living Breathing.)
YBP, Merrian - Webster (MW) defines a parasite as "an organism living in, with, or on another organism in parasitism" and parasitism
as "an intimate association between organisms of two or more kinds; especially : one in which a parasite obtains benefits from a host which it usually injures". An embryo meets this definition. It is obtaining benifits (nourishment) while it injures (fatigue, pain to
name a few things) the host. Babys do not fit the term because they are no longer causing harm to the mother. And there was no need for
you to conceed the point, I already state I was an animal. The point
you need to conceed is that everyone else in the world is also. As Carlos state (with a slight modification), "horrible as those crimes", "what made the 20th century such a bloody one"
Carlos, first off, It is not the atheists that are causing most of the horrible acts, but "religious people" (Muslims, Protestants (IRA), Catholics (child abuse).
The reason abortions do not bother me and it should not
bother you or YBP, because we will never have to have one, unless either of you two are doctors asked to perform one. To me that is the
whole point about abortion. It is a choice between a woman, her doctor, and her Beliefs. But the CR (Conservative Right) want to make the Government part of that choice. The CR wants to force their
belief onto these women. YBP once stated in a different post that it is a sin for Christians to force their faith on to anyone. Well there
been a lot of sinning up on Capital Hill.(But of course there is always a lot of sinning up on Captial Hill.)
One more for Finn, you are wrong, children are leaches up to 18, and with todays economy, even longer.

I argue that babies can and do cause fatigue to parents,m who have to wake in the night to see to their needs, and can cause "harm" as well. (Breastfeeding, emotional upset, etc.) Let's kill all kids, as long as it's our "choice"!
Many things in life cause "harm." Like relationships. The "harm" of bearing children must be a blessing. Ask the many women who go to incredible means of becoming pregnant.
Weird that if abortion is such a great thing we only just realized it thirty years ago. We need to tell these women who have had them that are now speaking out against the practice. Unenlightened dolts.

This is the question the President's flunkies cannot answer about what happened on Sept. 11, 2001:
With an unknown number of planes flying over the nation and crashing into buildings, with the President's presence at Booker Elementary announced in the media three days in advance, and with an airport just 4 miles away, how did the United States Secret Service Protective Detail know for a fact that President Bush was safe as he sat there reading about goats? How did the United States Secret Service Protective Detail know for a fact that they did not need to move President Bush into his bullet proof limo and drive away to foil a possible inbound? How did the United States Secret Service Protective Detail know for a fact that by keeping the children in the same room with the President that they were not risking their lives as well?

Finn, last I knew, the IRA was fighting not to join the Northern Catholics, but to have them join the rest of Ireland as one united
country. They is why they kept attacking the English. Also Finn, you
cannot say there has not been any violent conflicts caused by "religious" people. Some big ones that come to mind at least to me
might be the CRUSADES. As for pets being given away, yes we give them
to animal shelters, who after a certain amount of time, kill the pets for you. Try again, Finn.
See YBP, that is the difference between me and you. I am not judging
if abortions are bad or good. I am saying it should be a choice between the woman, her doctor and her god. But you and the rest of the
CR want to tell everyone it is evil. YOU ARE FORCING YOUR BELIEFS ONTO
THE REST OF SOCIETY when there is no reason to do so. If a woman
in Texas gets an abortion, is it going to have any impact on your life, NOOOOO. So why are you trying to force the woman to carry it to
term? The problem is that the CR can not defined anything. Life begins
at conception, no birth. A child is an adult at 18 years of age, no make that 21, no make that 15. Pick a definition and stick to it. For me life begins at the baby's first breath. Everything before that, it
is just extra tissue that can be discarde or not, depending on the woman's choice.

Butch,
Sorry to confuse you. Let me try again.
It was public knowledge that Bush would be at Booker Elementary School on September 11, 2001. This had been announced on Sept. 9th.
There is an airport just 4 miles from Booker Elementary School.
Given these two facts, why didn't the Secret Service Protective Detail wisk Bush away from the school when it became apparent that America was under attack? How did they know Bush was safe at the school? The answer is that they were privy to the attack plans, i.e. the Bush administration orchestrated 9-11 with the help of the Israeli Mossad.
I have a mountain of evidence to this effect but I don't want to overwhelm you. Let me start you out with a single item.
Here is a report from Briit Hume of Fox News which describes a huge Israeli spying involving 200 spies here in the US just prior to and after Sept. 11, 2001. This story was spiked (destroyed) by Fox the day after it was reported. It's an incredibly important story. Fortunately copies have been archived and are available at:

"As for pets being given away, yes we give them

That's not giving pets away, that's just abandoning them. Giving pets away is when you find someone who wants to take care of the pet for you, not dumping them in the nearest butcher facility.

Oh, an important correction:
Catholic church acted exactly like modern terrorism when it was spreading like a virus with crusades and "convert or die" -policy, but since it is a majority organization now they can't be called terrorists. More like the biggest influence in US foreign politics. So technically Catholic Ireland as a country is a part of an ancient terrorist organization, but you can't say they are that today.

Finn, your post stated that the Protestants want to join the Catholic (which was part of the UK.) There is a big difference between
them join the UK, and the Catholic breaking away and joining the rest of Ireland. Also you are wrong again. There have been different wars
fought over religion besides the Catholics and the Muslims. The civil
wars in England where the Protestants and Catholics were butchering
each others comes to mind. Ever hear of Bloody Mary, and I'm not talking about the drink. Now I do not disagree that the Catholics and
early Christians were not brutal. I know most of Norway was covert to
Christianity by the sword. But we have strayed from my point, which
was addressings Carlos remark of the atheists doing all the killing and evil things in the world. I tried to point out this was not true.
Now if you want to rant and rave about the evils of the Catholics, you can go ahead. I do not care one way or the other. Now YBP might. As for the supposedly accidental mispelling and deliberate not correcting of my name, I did have more respect for you because I thought you were one of the few who could carry on a debate with out
childish name calling. I guess I was wrong. So if want to start
digressing into name calling, just let me know. I can think of all kinds of names especially since I have a lot more years on you.
And just to show you, here is one for anusbitchman. Gee, Bitch works for your sorry ass name also. If you don't have anything to say besides profanities and violences, maybe you be just keep your fat ass dick sucking lips shut. Now if you wish to comment on why my views are wrong in a friendly debate, by all means I will be glad to hear your view. If you just want to show how stupid you are go play with yourself, because I know you cannot get any woman to be with you.
YBP, how is it forcing people to your beliefs by allowing
other people to do something you personally don't believe in.
There was a time when some people believed that drinking booze was wrong. There are some people who still believe this way. By allowing you or me to drink, does this force them to go against their belief. No. Also you stated "Weird that if abortion is such a great thing we only just realized it thirty years ago." but then you turn around and state "for legalizing a practice that people have reviled for thousands of years?" So how old is abortion, 30 years or thousands?
One more thing, I would like to comment you on how to hold a debate. I can see this is a touchy subject for you, but you have presented yourself far above, and not in just this post but different ones, most people on this blog.

Hmm... Some other Protestant related wars:
The 30-year northern war Lutherans vs. Catholics and Orthodox. Scandinavia, Russia and Germany+neighbours involved.
"Uskonpuhdistus", cleansing of the faith, looting all Catholic churches in all of Scandinavia and North-Germany and switching to less extravagant Lutheran faith.
"Ristiretkisodat", pagan peoples of the north and east teaming up with Mongols to fight off Crusades to the north. (more like a protesting war)
How was it... "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but touch my heart and I'll crush yours"? That's the Finnish version at least... If someone insults you, you should retaliate with ten times the insult, not start saying "let's not start doing this, I'd win anyway", since you never know what kind of insult skill the person might have unless you try. Besides, I enjoy a bit of insults comment wrestling, played a bit too many Monkey Island games to not love it.

To return to the original subject of this article(well, at least to comment something on it), why did they think Manhattan is a Jewish shithole? I'd say it's more like a paved, polluted boil in Americas belly button (if Florida is the winkie, Northpole is the head and brains, Canada being the upper body) sucking life out the not-so-overpopulated waist-areas below it.

Butch: Good morning and thank you for your kind words. I'll try to avoid religious arguments here! It ain't easy!
Abortions have probably been around since mankind started, but have always been considered reprehensible and a crime against humanity until recently. Calling abortion a "right" is a new trend. Prtoecting human life is not a radical new thing, but fundamental to the the sanity of any civilized society. I'm positive the Founding Fathers, who discuss the God-given rights of those created by parents (and indirectly, through Him), would be aghast. Practically, 100% of a person's genetic makeup is determined at the moment of conception. Science and medicine define being a person (human) by genetic means. According to science and medicine, a fetus is a distinct organism. Thus, killing a fetus is killing a potential baby. Killing a child is killing a potential man or woman. It's killing innocent life, and that's what those who oppose abortion are against. No one is saying that babies should have "rights equal to or superior to a woman's." Pro-life proponents are simply saying that babies have a right to life. Regarding Development: Some imply that a fetus is not a thinking, feeling, conscious human being. Current, valid science indicates that a fetus is not a senseless mass of tissue, as some people have believed in the past. According to Planned Parenthood, a fetus is "the organism that develops from the embryo at the end of eight weeks of pregnancy and receives nourishment through the placenta; the fetus continues to develop until the pregnancy ends." According to Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Tenth Edition, an organism is "an individual constituted to carry on the activities of life by means of organs separate in function but mutually dependent : a living being". In other words, Planned Parenthood admits that a fetus is an individual, and a living being. According to Dr. Ruth's Encyclopedia of Sex, "The beginning of the fetal period [is] arbitrarily designated by most embryologists to occur eight weeks after fertilization. At this time, the embryo is nearly one and one-half inches long. Few, if any, major new structures are formed thereafter; development during the fetal period of gestation consists of the maturation of structures formed during the embryonic period." In other words, the basic structure of the baby has already been formed. Planned Parenthood admits this. Now, remember, this is still within the first "trimester." The baby has a small brain. The baby can feel pain. The baby can feel vibrations. The baby has vague vision and hearing. The baby has reactions which indicate a simple intelligence. Admittedly, the baby is undeveloped enough at this point that its sensations and thoughts are not similar to adults'. However, the baby is a thinking, feeling human being. I believe that laws should support this fundamental belief.
Another set of arguments against abortion would be philosophical arguments. A key philosophical question is where do you draw the line? Put another way, when does a human being become a person? The Supreme Court's decision of Roe v. Wade separated personhood from humanity. In other words, the judges argued that a developing fetus was a human (i.e., a member of the species Homo sapiens) but not a person. Since only persons are given 14th Amendment protection under the Constitution, the Court argued that abortion could be legal at certain times. This left to doctors, parents, or even other judges the responsibility of arbitrarily deciding when personhood should be awarded to human beings. The Supreme Court's cleavage of personhood and humanity made the ethical slide down society's slippery slope inevitable. Once the Court allowed people to start drawing lines, some drew them in unexpected ways and effectively opened the door for infanticide and euthanasia. Look at the situation of the poor woman in Florida, starved to death. Reagrdless of her thinking capabilities, SHE WAS STILL A WOMAN.
The Court, in the tradition of previous line-drawers, opted for biological criteria in their definition of a "person" in Roe v. Wade. In the past, such criteria as implantation or quickening had been suggested. The Court chose the idea of viability and allowed for the possibility that states could outlaw abortions performed after a child was viable. But viability was an arbitrary criterion, and there was no biological reason why the line had to be drawn near the early stages of development. The line, for example, could be drawn much later.
Ethicist Paul Ramsey frequently warned that any argument for abortion could logically be also used as an argument for infanticide. As if to illustrate this, Dr. Francis Crick, of DNA fame, demonstrated that he was less concerned about the ethics of such logical extensions and proposed a more radical definition of personhood. He suggested in the British journal Nature that if "a child were considered to be legally born when two days old, it could be examined to see whether it was an 'acceptable member of human society." Obviously this is not only an argument for abortion; it's an argument for infanticide.
Other line-drawers have suggested a cultural criterion for personhood. Ashley Montagu, for example, stated, "A newborn baby is not truly human until he or she is molded by cultural influences later." Again, this is more than just an argument for abortion. It is also an argument for infanticide.
More recently some line-drawers have focused on a mental criterion for personhood. Dr. Joseph Fletcher argues in his book Humanhood that "Humans without some minimum of intelligence or mental capacity are not persons, no matter how many of these organs are active, no matter how spontaneous their living processes are." This is not only an argument for abortion and infanticide; it's adequate justification for euthanasia and the potential elimination of those who do not possess a certain IQ. In other writings, Joseph Fletcher suggested that an "individual" was not truly a "person" unless he has an IQ of at least 40.
There are a number of biblical arguments against abortion. But there are also medical, legal, and philosophical arguments against abortion.

YBP,
Very well argued. I'm in agreement with you. That said, I'm going to play devil's advocate (just figuratively I hope).
There is a controversial "theory" in Biological thought that states that, "Ontogeny Recapitulates Phylogeny". This was put forward by Ernst Haeckel in the 1800s.
Dr. Spock was one of the most famous pediatricians in the world. He is also the author of many best selling books. Read the following quote from his book "Baby and Child Care" and notice just how much HaeckelÂ’s "theory" influenced the world. "Each child as he develops is retracing the whole history of mankind, physically and spiritually, step by step. A baby starts off in the womb as a single tiny cell, just the way the first living thing appeared in the ocean. Weeks later, as he lies in the amniotic fluid of the womb, he has gills like a fish..." Quote is from Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care. (Forget the nutty reference to spirituality).
The statement means that the human embryo during early development goes through stages, first appearing fish like, then frog like, then chicken like, then pig like, and so on, until it comes to look human.
Those who hold this belief might argue that the early embryo, while technically human, is more like an "animal" developmentally. Of course this is only during early development.
Those who disagree with the theory call it, “Haekel’s Lie”.

Greg: Thanks. I remember reading about the theory, too, in college. Some evolutionists may assume that because of the similarities in the appearance of the these embryos, humans are "harkening back" to the species from which they derived rather than believe that the animal fetuses or feti are themselves harkening back to the developmental stages of of the higher creature: mankind.
I love the line from "Annie Hall," where Woody Allen tells Diana Keaton that (paraphrasing) "All the things our parents told us were GOOD for us are BAD for us: Red meat, sunshine, college."

YBP,
I do agree that there has been some type of abortion procedures around for long time. I believe usually it was some type of potion that often as not hurt both mother and fetus. But if abortion is so “reprehensible and a crime against humanity” why is it still around in force. Cannibalism and Human sacrifices are “reprehensible and a crime against humanity” and they are for the most part extinct. I am not arguing that protecting human life is not a fundamental need of sane societies. What I am arguing is the definition of what constitutes a human life. Just because 100% of ones genetics are determined at time of conception (and I am taking your word on this, I have not looked into it), does not necessary make that a person. One can gather all the materials needed to make a house in
a yard and have the blue prints for the house. Once you have everything there that is needed to make the house, it does not mean you actually have a house. I agree 1000% that killing an embryo or fetus is killing a “potential baby”. But it is not a baby yet. As such, societies should not make laws based on potentials. If a society does, then we could make a law declaring Finn to be a potential terrorist, and he should be arrested and turner over to the US authorities. He did say he was glad about 9/11. Now the instant a baby is born, then they should be given 100% equal rights as any other human on earth.
As for Terri in Florida, we both know we disagree on this point. I believe it was a mercy that she was allow to die, (once again I did not like the method. I believe it could have been done quicker and less painful.) Now, to give you some information to use against my own arguments, I am going to contradict myself. When I said a baby who is born should gain 100% rights as any other, I believe there is one exception to that. That is if the baby was born with no real brain activity, (ie brain stem only, poor delivery resulted in a brain damage child in the same state as Terri, ect.) If a body can only produce brain waves to a maximum of just keeping up body functions, then maybe it is not a human. If a body can not experience any type of emotions, then does this not take away at what makes us human. As for your last statement about biblical, medical, legal, and philosophical arguments against abortion, I will be happy to listen to the medical, legal and to some extent the philosophical. The biblical issues should not be consider due to our Separation of Church and State clause in the Constitution. If we start allowing Christian views into our laws, (and I know there are some already), then we should start allowing other religions also. How would you feel if we passed a law that no more cows can be killed. I think I would go crazy if I could never have another cheese burger or T-bone.
As for you Faggot Finn, I was trying to be nice, but since your dumb ass wants to get into a pissing match, well lets go. First off, where in the hell in my “earlier” post did I off you an insult. The only thing I can think of was that maybe I insulted your intelligence, but if I did it was not intentional. I thought you were smarted then it now appears you are. So why don't you go back to humping your sheep, and leave people who know how to debate, debate. As for me commending YBP on how he handles himself on these posts, I can assure you I handle myself much better then you, you Finnish pond scum.
Any one know why women hate have sex with men from Finland? Because they are always Finnish before they even drop their pants. Why did the Russian Cabinet hate Stalin?
Because he kept destroying the Finnish.
Why did Finn fall off the cliff?
He did not see the ewe turn.
Why did Finn want to join the German Navy?
He heard they had ewe boats.
Why does Finn like making love on cliff sides?
The ewe pushes back harder.
Why does Anus bitch man wear Button Fly?
Sheep can hear a zipper at 30 yards.
Why does Finn where Button Fly?
Cause Anus Bitch man can hear a zipper at 50 yards.

The Silver-Lined Gitmo Commode
By Demosophist, (while Rusty is living it up in Adams-Morgan and forgetting to tell me where to meet him.)
Well, I'm frankly puzzled by this whole Koran-flushing thing. I understand how a people steeped in a vengeful literature for a thousand years might get upset when a few red infidels use laser-guided bombs to blow up their neighborhoods while we're liberating them from tyranny. And I grasp the idea of the shame of a proud people when inferior mongrel troops are sent into a place like Fallujah or Ramadi to uncover baby Auschwitz slaughterhouses with shaky plaintive notes from the victims scrawled on the walls in their own blood, or when we bomb Baghdad in "Shock and Awe" while they stand on their rooftops so as not to miss anything, or when a group of our miscreants discomfit captives guilty of far worse, with the cultural indignities of plebe hazing. I understand that, and it sorta makes sense. But why do they wait until they think we might have flushed a [holy] book down the crapper before instigating an Ummah-wide lethal street uprising? Why now, and not then?

It won't take a massive attack on one of our cities to set us off into total war with Islam. If we see the start of suicide bombings in our cities, malls, or other public places, I would expect to see outrage so massive that it could result in Congressional action to not only ban Muslim immigration, but possibly the deportation of Muslim non-citizens as well. And I'm NOT paranoid. A radiological or chemical attack against one or more of our cities would result in such a terrible lust for revenge that it could not be stopped. Anyone who tried to negotiate would be ignored. I read recently that Iran will not attack Israel with a nuclear weapon because Iran knows that there are Israeli submarines with multiple nukes, and that Iran would cease to exist as a nation if Israel struck back. I would hope the Iranians (or the North Koreans) know that any weapons used against us will be traced by to their money, scientists, technology, spies, or whatever. The revenge would be horrific.

The one adjective that best describes Muslim characteristics is childishness. They do the most unbelievable shit and stand ready to justify it by making up whatever lies are needed on the spot, then when they see an offense to them, whether real or perceived, they throw a tantrum.

Greg, get a grip. Read the newspaper. The Iranians are working as fast as they can to get a nuke and everybody (except you, I guess)knows it. They will probably prevail, unless Israel or the US stops them first. They have publically stated that their intention is to "destroy Israel" with a nuke. Like so many Islamic regimes, they are delusional to the point of psychosis. They know Israel will destroy them if they hit her first. The fact that YOU don't keep it is not my problem, comrade.

I think the logic of deterrence still holds with respect to Iran, but it's now more of a constrain than a barrier, because there are lots of loose cannons around now. How could a people willing to violate the sanctuary of mercy, not to mention other time-honored sanctuaries, be relied upon to honor the logic of deterrence? Short answer: they can't. If through through misadventure or design they were to get their hands on a device, you can kiss the Middle Eastern heritage and civilization, both the Persian and the Arab versions, goodbye. They'll survive only in museums.
Besides that, why would we even consider giving that sort of leverage to a totalitarian regime, if there were the slightest possibility of denying it to them? You Leftists out there (Venom, etc.) get with the program. Just because we win this doesn't mean you lose. That's another story, and your prescriptions will be judged on entirely different grounds.

admit that Saddem was a lot smarter then the idiots in Iran. Dollar
for Dollar, chems are a lot better then nukes. They are a lot cheaper
to make, easier to research, easier to clean up after. Usually
leave the area alone for 3 or 4 days, and you good to go. You may still have to deconaminate the area, but it is a lot easier then to
de radiate an area. Not only that, you can get loot once the area is
clear, with the mushroom you get slag. So if you ask me, screw nukes,
lets ensure no one uses chemical weapons.

I just don't know how to talk to the Left, or for that matter their allies the Paleocons, any more. The fact that the latter are their allies might have clued them in at some point, but I think I've finally come to the same conclusion as Bill Whittle, that for some people deep in the womb of sanctuary "reality has left the building."
I don't know how to reach such people, though I see they can probably reach themselves if they've the right incentive. And I don't believe, any more, that there's even a decent reason to try to reach them. We can pretty much do this without them. When they decide it's time to join the jihadists, and they start throwing bombs themselves, we'll cross that bridge too.
What can one expect of a people who equate the equivalent of plebe or fraternity hazing with real torture? Not very much, I'm afraid.
On a more constructive note, did you know it's possble to use store-bought tortillas and Trader Joe's Pizza Sauce with pre-grated Italian gourmet cheeses and farm-fresh produce, to make personal-sized homemade pizzas that are just wonderful enjoyed with a beer and NASCAR on the Speed Channel, or the Tour de France or the Giro on OLN if you prefer?

If you did have children of that age you might reconsider your position.
If it's essential, it's essential. I believe it's essential, and unless I were willing to be a free-rider, of course I'd support my children going, just as people like Marc Danziger already have done. I'm preparing to go myself, as soon as I get up to speed on the language. What I can't fathom is what you think the alternative to be. Read the above fisk again. Stir in the insight that Islam has been made vulnerable to this by three trends: 1. a thousand year trend in literature that mocks all other cultures on earth as the equivalent of a canine brawl; 2. the open door given the Nazis by the Allied pullout from the Middle East in the 1940s to sew the seeds of malignant ideology; and 3. the fruition to both trends by merging with "liberation philosophy" in the writings of radical Islamists by people like Sayyid Qutb... all stirred by decades of autocratic and tyrannical oppression of Muslims and their media.
We. Have. No. Choice.

Greg continues to demonstrate his utter ignorance. Iran isn't a neighbor of Israel. And Iran is not an arab country.
In fact, Israel worked to aid Iran during the Iran-Iraq war because Iraq had actually field armies against Israel and Iran had not.
Iran's hatred of Israel is based solely on the same thing that greg's mental illnesses are based upon - anti-semitism.

But that actually is your working level of reality, isn't it? This is all one big living room to you.
What this may ultimately come down to in the end, with those of you willing to undermine civilization for the sake of that living room of perfect commity in your head, is that we may have to simply boot you out of this sanctuary so you can come to your own terms with the enemy.

Greg, only incomprehensible to you because of the continual ignorance you display here. In the '67 and '73 Arab-Israeli wars, Iraqi ground units participated on the arab side despite the fact that Iraq does not share a border with Israel.
That was why Israel was interested in supporting Iran against Iraq during their long war in the '80's.

greg,
my children didn't fight in WW2 either, yet I fail to see how this invalidates that war, or this war, or any war.
For arguments sake let's pretent you've proved I'm a coward for not fighting in this war and also proved that I'm the lowest form of human scum that ever walked the face of the earth. Answer me this, what in tarnation does that prove about the current war? Nothing. ergo, I see straight through your rhetorical slights of hand.
Whether or not I'm scum or what you think of me is entirely irrelevant to the righteousness of this cause or any other cause. That's why I don't see to personalize blogging, because it's irrelevant what I think of you personally, or you of me.

Now, to actually respond to the post at hand, instead of that (non-PG-13 & genetically improbable comments about Greg's ancestry deleted)troll's blather...
This brings to mind an editorial cartoon just after 9/11. A bunch of stereotypical jihadis hi-5ing & whooping it up except for one really scared looking guy in front holding a book titled something like "Japan In WWII". The dialog at the bottom was, "Um, guys, have you read how this thing ends?" The Arab Street(tm) has nothing on the US Street if we get ticked off. I've heard it asked if there's anything more deadly than a fanatic willing to die. The answer is yes: An engineer who wants his family to live. Just ask the residents of Hiroshima & Nagasaki...

Newsweak II--The Undiscovered Irony
Actually this is being hinted at in a few different places, but let's make it explicit:
Newsweek ran a story based on mistaken information about flushing a Koran. As a result of their mistake, people died and America's reputation suffered abroad.
George Bush invaded Iraq based (in part) on mistaken information about WMD's. As a result of his invasion, people died and America's reputation suffered abroad.
Of course, Iraq did have WMD production capabilities, they did sponsor terrorism, they did violate UN resolutions and international law, they did prosecute a genocide against the Kurds and killed thousands upon thousands in a nightmarish totalitarian state. And Iraq now has a fledgling democracy. And America clearly demonstrated its resolve to avenge the attacks of 9/11. But all that's not important right now.
What is important: Newsweek did exactly what the left accuses Bush of doing. Can the left defend Newsweek without implicitly defending Bush as well?

You pawn. The fact is that every US home (almost) has a flushable toilet. The production capability was there, and right-wing US bloggers regularly sponsor extremist right-wing behaviour - noting Blog-ads to left; "Victor Davis Hanson at his best", "Politically Incorrect - The Coolest Right Wing Shirts", "Military News and Discussion" (echo chamber) glorification of dark side etc.
Newsweek pre-emptively broke a headline that was waiting to happen. Newsweek are committed in their foresight and commited in alerting their audience to risk.
Anyway, if you still think "the left" read Newsweek you probably need re-educative instruction. The left read and write everything. Including rightwing spoofs like this sit...woops, cat got out of bag again.

actus,
I would consider Newsweek morally culpable for reporting it even if it were true, because they reported it based on either A) malice against Bush, regardless of the consequences, or B) without malice, but with reckless ignorance of the consequences. That kind of ignorance is culpable.
Newsweek was motivated either by malice or extreme ignorance of the consequences. And anybody that ignorant should not be reporting world news. I find it hard to believe Izikoff is that naive.
But given that the accusations aren't true, Newsweeak is double and triple culpable.
The interrogator, on the other hand, is not morally culpable because A) flushing Koran pages down a toilet isn't immoral, anymore than some Liberal atheist flushing pages of the Bible is immoral. It was merely an interrogation technique not consisting of torture, and not meant for publication by ignorant malicious journalists.
Or the interrogator not culpable because B) he never did flush Koran pages down a toilet.

I couldn't care less if it does happen. Bibles and buddhist statues are desecrated 24/7 by these muslim sub-humans, and we don't fucking riot and kill people over it. If someone riots because of a desecrated Koran he should be shot like a mad dog.

Actus-
Yes, I really think desecration of the Koran does NOT happen at the hands of our civilian interrogators or soldiers. I think anyone who did so would face severe discipline. For very good reasons, as the recent riots have demonstrated.
I expect that, in line with the "fake menstrual blood" incident, it would be within the rules of engagement to desecrate a fake Koran. I have no knowledge of that, of course, and whether it would be effective I am quite doubtful.

I'm assuming our troops act a lot like prison guards -- which aren't nice people. I don't think that mishandling a Koran is that big of a deal -- in the humane treatement sense -- and I'm assuming that our troops don't either. Not the kind of thing I would do, but I've never had to run a prison/ detention system.
I'm also going by the fact that before this there have been other reports of desecrations, and other religious offenses being used.
Are you really surprised to find out that, in a prison, jailers act like prison guards?

Tin-Foil Brigades in Congress
Break out the tinfoil, 88 members of Congress have signed a letter to the President requesting an investigation into a 'secret meeting' in which Tony Blair and G.W. Bush plan to invade Iraq and come up with justifications for it later.
Have Congressional Democrats gone completely moon-barking batty??
Here is the letter as published by Raw Story. (Hat tip to Rob at Say Anything) more...

There are so many things fundamentally wrong with that letter I don't know where to start. I'll let someone else tackle it point by point. It kills me that they're STILL saying that justification for the war had to be "created". We would first have to say that 12 years of defying sanctions and non-compliance with resolutions wasn't enough. Openly administrating payments by cheque to families of terrorist "martyrs" wasn't enough. Repression, imprisonment, torture, assassination, and execution of his own people wasn't enough. Everyone was content to let the US foot the bill for years in the containment of Saddam's forces while being accused of starving Iraqi children. In that case you'd have to deny the OFF scandal existed too. His regime was, by Iraq's own constitution, illegitimate.
And John Kerry didn't sign it? What? Is he going soft? Clinton didn't sign it? Nor did Biden, Byrd, Pelosi, Boxer, Ted [hiccup] Kennedy, etc?
Greg's legacy will be, "At least he was consistent."

I agree with Oyster on some stuff. The only thing we really needed
for justification to invade Iraq was the continual breaking of the UN
resolutions. All of the U.N. should of joined us on that.
But I also say that Bush, should have impeachment proceedings
brought against him because he did "lie" about WMD. Shoot, they
try to impeach Clinton for a B.J., which really only effected 3 people, (Hilary, Bill, and Monica), when George's lie effect millions of people and Billions of Dollars?

This is for greg who wouldn't know the truth if it bit him in the a**
"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs." -- From a letter signed by Joe Lieberman, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara A. Milulski, Tom Daschle, & John Kerry among others on October 9, 1998
"This December will mark three years since United Nations inspectors last visited Iraq. There is no doubt that since that time, Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to refine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer- range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies." -- From a December 6, 2001 letter signed by Bob Graham, Joe Lieberman, Harold Ford, & Tom Lantos among others
"Whereas Iraq has consistently breached its cease-fire agreement between Iraq and the United States, entered into on March 3, 1991, by failing to dismantle its weapons of mass destruction program, and refusing to permit monitoring and verification by United Nations inspections; Whereas Iraq has developed weapons of mass destruction, including chemical and biological capabilities, and has made positive progress toward developing nuclear weapons capabilities" -- From a joint resolution submitted by Tom Harkin and Arlen Specter on July 18, 2002
"Saddam's goal ... is to achieve the lifting of U.N. sanctions while retaining and enhancing Iraq's weapons of mass destruction programs. We cannot, we must not and we will not let him succeed." -- Madeline Albright, 1998
"(Saddam) will rebuild his arsenal of weapons of mass destruction and some day, some way, I am certain he will use that arsenal again, as he has 10 times since 1983" -- National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, Feb 18, 1998
"Iraq made commitments after the Gulf War to completely dismantle all weapons of mass destruction, and unfortunately, Iraq has not lived up to its agreement." -- Barbara Boxer, November 8, 2002
"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retained some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capability. Intelligence reports also indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons, but has not yet achieved nuclear capability." -- Robert Byrd, October 2002
"There's no question that Saddam Hussein is a threat... Yes, he has chemical and biological weapons. He's had those for a long time. But the United States right now is on a very much different defensive posture than we were before September 11th of 2001... He is, as far as we know, actively pursuing nuclear capabilities, though he doesn't have nuclear warheads yet. If he were to acquire nuclear weapons, I think our friends in the region would face greatly increased risks as would we." -- Wesley Clark on September 26, 2002
"What is at stake is how to answer the potential threat Iraq represents with the risk of proliferation of WMD. Baghdad's regime did use such weapons in the past. Today, a number of evidences may lead to think that, over the past four years, in the absence of international inspectors, this country has continued armament programs." -- Jacques Chirac, October 16, 2002
"The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of threat Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow." -- Bill Clinton in 1998
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members, though there is apparently no evidence of his involvement in the terrible events of September 11, 2001. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons. Should he succeed in that endeavor, he could alter the political and security landscape of the Middle East, which as we know all too well affects American security." -- Hillary Clinton, October 10, 2002
"I am absolutely convinced that there are weapons...I saw evidence back in 1998 when we would see the inspectors being barred from gaining entry into a warehouse for three hours with trucks rolling up and then moving those trucks out." -- Clinton's Secretary of Defense William Cohen in April of 2003
"Iraq is not the only nation in the world to possess weapons of mass destruction, but it is the only nation with a leader who has used them against his own people." -- Tom Daschle in 1998
"Saddam Hussein's regime represents a grave threat to America and our allies, including our vital ally, Israel. For more than two decades, Saddam Hussein has sought weapons of mass destruction through every available means. We know that he has chemical and biological weapons. He has already used them against his neighbors and his own people, and is trying to build more. We know that he is doing everything he can to build nuclear weapons, and we know that each day he gets closer to achieving that goal." -- John Edwards, Oct 10, 2002
"The debate over Iraq is not about politics. It is about national security. It should be clear that our national security requires Congress to send a clear message to Iraq and the world: America is united in its determination to eliminate forever the threat of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction." -- John Edwards, Oct 10, 2002
"I share the administration's goals in dealing with Iraq and its weapons of mass destruction." -- Dick Gephardt in September of 2002
"Iraq does pose a serious threat to the stability of the Persian Gulf and we should organize an international coalition to eliminate his access to weapons of mass destruction. Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to completely deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." -- Al Gore, 2002
"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction." -- Bob Graham, December 2002
"Saddam Hussein is not the only deranged dictator who is willing to deprive his people in order to acquire weapons of mass destruction." -- Jim Jeffords, October 8, 2002
"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction." -- Ted Kennedy, September 27, 2002
"There is no doubt that Saddam Hussein's regime is a serious danger, that he is a tyrant, and that his pursuit of lethal weapons of mass destruction cannot be tolerated. He must be disarmed." -- Ted Kennedy, Sept 27, 2002
"I will be voting to give the president of the United States the authority to use force - if necessary - to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security." -- John F. Kerry, Oct 2002
"The threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real, but as I said, it is not new. It has been with us since the end of that war, and particularly in the last 4 years we know after Operation Desert Fox failed to force him to reaccept them, that he has continued to build those weapons. He has had a free hand for 4 years to reconstitute these weapons, allowing the world, during the interval, to lose the focus we had on weapons of mass destruction and the issue of proliferation." -- John Kerry, October 9, 2002
"(W)e need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime. We all know the litany of his offenses. He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation. ...And now he is miscalculating AmericaÂ’s response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction. That is why the world, through the United Nations Security Council, has spoken with one voice, demanding that Iraq disclose its weapons programs and disarm. So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real, but it is not new. It has been with us since the end of the Persian Gulf War." -- John Kerry, Jan 23, 2003
"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandates of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering them." -- Carl Levin, Sept 19, 2002
"Every day Saddam remains in power with chemical weapons, biological weapons, and the development of nuclear weapons is a day of danger for the United States." -- Joe Lieberman, August, 2002
"Over the years, Iraq has worked to develop nuclear, chemical and biological weapons. During 1991 - 1994, despite Iraq's denials, U.N. inspectors discovered and dismantled a large network of nuclear facilities that Iraq was using to develop nuclear weapons. Various reports indicate that Iraq is still actively pursuing nuclear weapons capability. There is no reason to think otherwise. Beyond nuclear weapons, Iraq has actively pursued biological and chemical weapons.U.N. inspectors have said that Iraq's claims about biological weapons is neither credible nor verifiable. In 1986, Iraq used chemical weapons against Iran, and later, against its own Kurdish population. While weapons inspections have been successful in the past, there have been no inspections since the end of 1998. There can be no doubt that Iraq has continued to pursue its goal of obtaining weapons of mass destruction." -- Patty Murray, October 9, 2002
"As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process." -- Nancy Pelosi, December 16, 1998
"Even today, Iraq is not nearly disarmed. Based on highly credible intelligence, UNSCOM [the U.N. weapons inspectors] suspects that Iraq still has biological agents like anthrax, botulinum toxin, and clostridium perfringens in sufficient quantity to fill several dozen bombs and ballistic missile warheads, as well as the means to continue manufacturing these deadly agents. Iraq probably retains several tons of the highly toxic VX substance, as well as sarin nerve gas and mustard gas. This agent is stored in artillery shells, bombs, and ballistic missile warheads. And Iraq retains significant dual-use industrial infrastructure that can be used to rapidly reconstitute large-scale chemical weapons production." -- Ex-Un Weapons Inspector Scott Ritter in 1998
"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years. And that may happen sooner if he can obtain access to enriched uranium from foreign sources -- something that is not that difficult in the current world. We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction." -- John Rockefeller, Oct 10, 2002
"SaddamÂ’s existing biological and chemical weapons capabilities pose a very real threat to America, now. Saddam has used chemical weapons before, both against IraqÂ’s enemies and against his own people. He is working to develop delivery systems like missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles that could bring these deadly weapons against U.S. forces and U.S. facilities in the Middle East." -- John Rockefeller, Oct 10, 2002
"Whether one agrees or disagrees with the AdministrationÂ’s policy towards Iraq, I donÂ’t think there can be any question about SaddamÂ’s conduct. He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do. He lies and cheats; he snubs the mandate and authority of international weapons inspectors; and he games the system to keep buying time against enforcement of the just and legitimate demands of the United Nations, the Security Council, the United States and our allies. Those are simply the facts." -- Henry Waxman, Oct 10, 2002

- President Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998

- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999
"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has invigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies."

"...they try to impeach Clinton for a B.J.,..." This is factually wrong. They went ahead with impeachment procedings against Clinton for "obstructing justice". He was eventually only dis-barred for the same reason. Apparently the bar association thought it was serious enough to kick him out.
Greg, Saddam did NOT give the inspectors free reign. The IAEA even went so far as to allow him to "self-declare" what his arsenal inventory was at one point. And inspectors were thrown out entirely for years.
You know what? As far as the Bush and Blair "alleged conspiracy" goes, a little critical thinking might be in order; do you really think it would have been smart to say, "Hey, we're going to invade you if you don't comply by oh, say, March next year, is that okay?" This 'new and revealing' information means nothing. In the event Saddam did-not-finally-comply after more than a dozen years, plans for an invasion had to be in place. You don't tell someone you're coming after them and then sit around and plan afterwards. This talk of a "rush to go to war" is BS. As it was, we waited too long. Saddam had many years to comply. Too many.

not the ones in power. They are not the one who initiated a war
and lied to the America Populace. What I am saying is what is good

lied, lets impeach him. As I stated earlier, I believe there
were two reasons to go to war, 1, help the Iraqis escape the
tyrant Saddam, 2, Saddam ignored the U.N. resolution repeatedly.
Now I do support the war, and I do support our troops, what I don't support is two lying, cheating, stealing thieves who happens to occupy
our nations top two executive positions, Bush and Cheney. The Bush adminstration makes Grant's adminstrations looks like choir boys. That is really sad due to the fact that I, as a Texan, will not support a fellow Texan.

Greg remains a slanderer and a liar. There have been several investigations of the intelligence pre-war in both the US and Britain and none have found any evidence that President Bush or Tony Blair lied about the intel involved.
But we have a lot of evidence that greg is a liar. QED.

Butch, don't get me started on Whitewater. Both Clintons were guilty of what they were "suspected" of. The idea that he was not found guilty simply doesn't hold water with all the evidence. The fact that the Rose law firm conveniently "lost" (read that - shredded) paperwork and Madison Bank & Trust Co. neglected to fill out the proper paperwork at all is the only thing that saved them. Very little paper trail. All they had to go on was hearsay evidence and whatever minor corroboration they could dig up. That shredded paperwork has probably since been recycled and we've all used it as toilet paper. You can't defend a guy who isn't sure what "is" means.

Oyster,
I am not saying Bill is not guilty in whitewater. (Although,
my personal opinion, Hilary is more so then Bill.) What I read
was that they (the GOP) were able to bring about and impeachment
due to Clinton lying about the B.J. under oath. I agree, I think
slick Willie, was probably to slick, and as able to make a lot
of the stuff disappear. But just to clearify my points, they are:
1. I believe he was impeached due to perjury.
2. Clinton perjured himself only on the B.J. (The only lie we
know 100% to be a lie.)
3. If this was the only thing the G.O.P. could get on Clinton,
where is the justice in this for getting a B.J.
Once again, if there was other perjured statements Clinton made,
I did not see them. I do not love the Clinton's adminstration any
more than Bush's. I do hate Bush's admistration more then Clinton's.
(I love no adminstration, I tolerate some more then others.)

Butch, you are grossly misrepresenting what Clinton lied about. In a deposition for a civil action involving Clinton's alleged sexual harrassment of an Arkansas state employee, Clinton was asked about other sexual relationships with his employees. He denied having any relationships with employees in a series of questions. Those denials were the lies - lies he perpetuated in order to win a court case and deny justice to a woman who had sued him.
That was an impeachable offense and one that would have gotten him removed from office had the Democrats any integrity.

I think the far left has gone so far left, that they will do anything to make Bush look bad. They've fallen so under Soros' spell and Moore's stupidity that they'll forget that they took an oath to defend the constitution from all enemies domestic and foreign.
Just this week, we've heard that Iran is going to develop nuclear weapons and will use them on us. They have already test fired ICBM's and have already stated that they'll use them to fire Electro-magnetic pulse weapons that will shut down all the electronics in the northern Hemisphere. That means that they'll shut down every computer, TV, Radio, and Cardiac pacemaker in our sphere.
Now, do you think the democrat lefties will actually allow us to conduct a first strike against the terror leaders? Of course not, in fact, I'd wager that the left loonies would be standing in the dark screaming in victory that someone had finally shut us down, and in the process killed millions of people in hospices and hospitals.
And they call Islam a religion of peace. right.....

Robin,
I am not trying to misrepresent anything. I am just saying
that I thought, and I could be wrong, Clinton was impeached for lying about his sexual relationships during his deposition for the Whitewater hearings. I am certain he lied else where, but I thought the impeachment was for his perjury during that hearing only. If this is true, and they only thing Clinton lied about (that the GOP caught
him on) was this one issue, then the GOP should of just walked away.
Now if you are saying that Clinton needed to be impeached because
he did lie, no matter when or on what he lied, then the same should hold true for Bush and Cheney. Once again I want to point out,I am not a loyal fanatic of Clinton or Bush. My political philosophy is
politicians = Liars, Cheaters, Thieves and Evil.
Governments = unfortunately a necessary of life.
The less a govenment meets = less they can still, lie, cheat the people out of the peoples stuff.
Posted by: Butch at May 10, 2005 04:44 PM (Gqhi9)
52
Butch, and you are wrong. The deposition was related to a civil suit for sexual harrassment - where the questions were plainly relevant and within the scope of discovery. As the judge ruled at the very moment they were asked.
And no, I'm not saying that Clinton should be impeached for lying - which is sometimes necessary to run a government ( and I don't agree that Bush or Cheney have themselves lied ) - but he should be impeached for the obstruction of justice he engaged in. Something you seem to continue to wilfully not understand.
Posted by: Robin Roberts at May 10, 2005 07:12 PM (xauGB)
53
Robin,
I admit, and I said before, “I” was only aware of his lying under oath. I have just gone back and looked up the point you are trying to make, and I now see that his impeachment process came about in this order:
Gov. Clinton had and encounter with Paula Jones in hotel.
Clinton elected President.
Paula sues
Kenneth Starr appointed Independent Counsel to investigate
a real estate deal called Whitewater.
Clinton and Lewinsky fool around.
Lewinsky subpoenaed by Jones lawyers.
Starr is now authorized to investigate Lewinsky.
Starr reports on the Lewinsky matter to Congress.
Congress votes to hold impeachment hearings on two accounts,
Obstruction of justice and perjury charges.
Senate votes, 45 to 55 in ClintonÂ’s favor on perjury charges, 50
to 50 on obstruction charges.
Clinton Cleared.
Now my questions is why was Starr, who was suppose to investigate Whitewater, now has been given permission to investigate a totally unrelated event. (Sex and real estate, yes I can now see the connection, NOT.) Once again, I do not, and did not care if
Clinton was found guilty or not. What I am saying is that although Clinton did some very shady deals, Bush and Cheney are a lot worse and should be brought under the microscope also. And if Bush is as good as Clinton, then he can get his Republican Senate to let him off
also.
Posted by: Butch at May 11, 2005 08:50 AM (Gqhi9)

Butch, everything that Ken Starr investigated was referred to him by the Clinton Attorney General. The Clinton administration decided early on to keep refering most but not all of the new scandals that arose to Starr because they didn't want to have new independant counsels appointed - after all they'd done to discredit Starr. For that reason, Starr ended up investigating a lot of stuff outside of Whitewater because the Clinton administration wanted him to be the investigator. The Clinton white house preferred Starr because the reality was that he had ethics that prevented him from fighting back against the Clinton's smear PR campaign against him as much as he should have. Each time, the new matter had to also be approved by the 3 judge DC circuit panel that supervised Starr under the old now-expired independant counsel statute. That is how for instance Starr investigated the crooked billing of Webb Hubbell and the apparent suicide of Hillary's former law partner and White House counsel Vincent Foster. The White House travel office scandal, etc. etc. In each and every case, Janet Reno referred the matter to Starr. And every time, as Starr's office spent more money investigating ever more Clinton admin scandals, he was attacked by the very White House that had referred the scandal to him.
The Lewinsky matter was a little different. When Linda Tripp learned from Monica Lewinsky that there were phone calls from Clinton to Monica regarding what she should say to the Jones' lawyers, this was reported to Starr's office. Starr's office immediately reported this to the Clinton Dept of Justice who decided that Starr should investigate it. Starr then did investigate the matter and turned over what he found to the House of Reps for their consideration. Starr's successor also reached a plea bargin with Bill Clinton regarding the obstruction of justice charge.
The Clinton partisans liked to claim that Starr went looking for this stuff on his own - and usually coupled that false claim with a swipe at Starr's religious principles. Those were blatant Clinton admin lies. Starr didn't work that way and they knew it.
As a contrast, the independant counsel who investigated Iran-Contra during the Reagan administration spent about as much money investigating that one matter ( with a very cooperative White House ) as Starr spent investigating many different Clinton admin scandals against a non-cooperative, even obstructing White House.

I'm afraid to leave a message because I'll be torn to bloody shreds (this is a very nasty, kick em in the crotch discussion)
I'm actually quite conservative and have supported the Bush Administration the entire time. I have said dozens of times that Saddam was a tyrant, Saddam defied sanctions, It's a reality of our economy to protect oil interests etc. (I'm not claiming that I have an educated opinion - so please don't humiliate me if I've said something asinine)...BUT 1 year ago my little brother joined the army as a infantryman.
On some level I still hold to the political beliefs mentioned above, but when I think of giving my precious little brother's life to the cause it suddenly takes on a different light. Not saying that we should never go to war...ever - that's not realistic. But it does make me re-evaluate my ideals.
If my little brother dies for this war and Bush really did lie and misrepresent the facts to manipulate or motivate the nation to war(even if Saddam deserved it), I don't know if I'll ever get over it or forgive Mr. Bush.

Brilliant because most PhDs are Liberals, and morons because they're so fucking stupid.

So why was MG being named jackass of the week? I read what she said and it sounded more like she's making sure everyone thinks about why 9/11 happened and why America is so hated. It's pretty dumb to assume terrorists are 'jealous' of freedom. There are many other issues that motivate them... Either way, worldwide polls don't lie, most of the world hates our ass, justified or not.
Carlos: are you maybe 'jealous' of intelligent people? I know plenty of PhD's who are quite liberal and they aren't 'fucking stupid'. They are kick ass, motivated people with balls who do what they say and don't take shit from people who say 'fucking stupid' things like you just did.

steven,
I know you do, that's what I just said.
And by the way, being "motivated" doesn't impress me if you're motivated to do jackass things, like be a more effective Liberal, or a more ignorant Hollywood actor. Hitler and Stalin were motivated. "Motivated" is therefore a neutral thing. It can be good, or bad. In your case, probably bad.
And I'm a fucking lawyer starting my own practice so don't talk to me about balls and motivated, idiot.

Terrorists aren't jealous of our Freedom, they are afraid of it. If everybody in the middle east were free of tin pot dictators and religious fanatics, the middle east would be as rich as we are, both culturally and financially. Women would be free to walk the streets, wearing whatever they wanted, and there would be tourism through the sacred thoroughfares.
If people were free in the middle east, they could follow their dreams, and might even stop praying 5 times a day.
Hopefully someday, the people of the middle east will rise up and tell the mullah's to vamoose and go back to their caves.

Starting a practice doesn't have anything to do with having balls or being motivated: Congrats, you are trying to do what a million other dishonest people have done to line their pockets. Oh yeah, and if 'motivated' is neutral, why do a million lawyers use the word LIBERALLY on their resumes? Why do you brag about your silly little practice using the word?

Don't be ignorant too long or they'll finally get a nuke and turn Texas into a parking lot.

hahaha! what a maroon. If anybody puts 'motivated' on his resume he's either a high school kid, a college drop out, or a PhD without any real world work experience. No wonder you hippies can't find real jobs, no wonder all you do is bitch and moan about how bad capitalism is-- you put 'motivated' on your resumes and nobody hires you. And of course everybody knows you aren't motivated, you're mooches, whiners and losers. I'd rather hire a my blind, 3-legged dog than some Lib PhD who puts 'motivated' on his resume.

What a joke being called selfish by a Lib, when it's a proven fact that Red staters-- CONSERVATIVES-- give more to charity even though they make less money. NJ-- a Blue state-- is tops in salaries but 47th in charitable donations. So now you know where to put selfish, right up your ass.

Carlos, I'm not a fucking 'lib' or a conservative, so your labels fail to define me. If the red states stopped giving money to the Christian insanity TV drive, then your charity numbers would fall flat on their former slave owning asses. Also, who the fuck are you calling 'conservative' when Bushie spends our future out of existence? How many 'conservatives' really conserve anything? (natural resources for example) How many 'red staters' drive economy cars instead of huge SUVs/Trucks that compensate for their tiny puds? What's up with all the flyovers buying trucks and not hauling anything but their obese McDonalds ass around? If the West and East coast kicked the midwest out of the USA, you'd be Mexico's bitch in no time. The midwest is a joke...a joke that you don't get because your brother is your father too!

if you kicked the red states out you'd starve to death. What are you going to eat, your stocks and bonds? That's all you've got now anyway. You don't even have industry anymore. China and Mexico got all that. And for thr record, I believe the elites of BOTH parties have sold us down the road. I don't give a shit about George Bush. I'm a conservative, not a Republican.

steven,
you're a Liberal, and assume you're fully on board with their agenda for overturning the established order, and with it the traditions and values that the regular folks you claim to care about hold dearest. But you don't care for them. You hold them in contempt-- that's why you try to socially engineer them. But as long as you feel it's your duty to socially engineer them, they'll never be your ally against the economic elites. Regular folks hate you more than they fear the economic elites. They hate social engineering far more than they hate economic engineering.
Northern Texas does blow because it's cattle country. East and central Texas is good for forests and hills, and West Texas is good for dessert. Southern Texas blows too though.

Overturning the established order? Last time I checked, it is our American duty to make sure that 'order' isn't abused like it is now. My thoughts that our government and corporations are corrupt does not make me a liberal, it makes me a patriot who cares how this country is run. As far as 'regular folks'...if you're referring to rural Americans: They are often under educated, underpaid and easily manipulated by our media/govt./corp. I grew up in rural America and I'm a city dweller now...I notice these differences like night and day. I don't feel threatened by traditions and values as long as they aren't racist, suppressive or harmful to others. I am harsh and pointed with my insults, but I don't really hold 'regular folks' in contempt. I think most people are lazy and ignorant, but I don't blame them...it's human nature! As long as everyone's water runs, food is on the table and the TV buzzes away, everyone is comfortable. That's why 9/11 was such a spank. People usually don't take action unless their way of life is threatened. Yes, our nation's poorest elect our nations' richest...and those leaders say one thing, do another and the poor keep getting poorer. What do you think is a solution? Maybe I'll venture into other parts of Texas someday. Maybe my next road trip?

not easily manipulated, as your failure to make any inroads amongst them bespeaks. They just happen to know what they believe, and they aren't going to change in order to please the very Libs who obviously hold them in such contempt.

I don't think it's about me trying to make inroads, I'm talking about 'regular folks' who believe everything they hear/see on TV, which we all know is a bit removed from reality and always biased. I know you don't care about Bushie, but according to the polls, 'regular folks' aren't too pleased with him. Collin? I dunno...I'm sure he's lurking around somewhere. Maybe him and Gayrooster are out having a Zell Miller style duel?

Never apologize for the Crusades. Those were christian provinces until the jihadist invaders swarmed like locusts out of the Arabian peninsula in 700 AD. And they were still occupying Spain when all this went down in Jerusalem. Fuck you guilt-ridden self-loathing Liberal dhimmis. I despise you.

The only non-Muslims who aren't power hungry are the humanists, who seem to think goodness and mercy is a human creation, and God is merely a metaphor.

I saw Kingdom of Heaven last night, and was pleasantly surprised. It wasn't the pro-Islamic love fest I had feared, yet a lot of people won't like it because it showed Crusaders for what many of them were; vicious barbarians. It also showed many of them as brave, noble, and righteous.
Saladin (Salah eh Din) was portrayed in a fairly accurate light as far as I could tell. He was the greatest military leader Islam ever had, and probably the most enlightened. The fact that he showed his enemies more mercy than they would have shown him is telling, and is well illustrated in the movie.
We have to remember that Christianity was just emerging from the dark ages at the time of the Crusades, and not everyone was a plaster saint. Many men took the cross to find salvation, others took it to satisfy their lust and greed. The movie wasn't really about Christian versus Muslim anyway, it was about good against evil in the hearts of men. I liked it, and I might see it again.

Saw the movie last night, and the Europeans were a mixed bag. There were good and bad ones. But predictably, all priests are douchebags, as per formula. True morality can only be found outside the organized church is the message in this movie.
Unless you're muslim, in that case religion's fine. For instance, Orlando's character "lost his religion" and was nevertheless the most noble of the Europeans BECAUSE he lost his religion, or so we're to believe. Also, he claims not to hear from God and that God doesn't speak to him. So presumably even God isn't necessary for moral greatness, let alone organized religion.
The pep talk he gives his men before the battle purposely robs Jerusalem of any spiritual importance, and instead they fight only for "the people." Predictable. He ends up rousing the troops with shouts of "come on! come on!". Yawn.
While the muslims shout "Allahu akbar" as they march on Jerusalem. Yet they, unlike the christians, are portrayed as noble in their religious conviction.
Christianity=savage and corrupt
Islam=noble
Aside from that, the movie was pure amazing eye candy.

This mustard has pass his expiration,..
narrow minded and hater of Muslims
awaits his king at the gate of zion- a bad king conditioned to return on the establishmednt of a state survives burglary and blood.
any way, the film is bad for Muslims,
unfair to Salahaddin , "No Mercy" or threating to kill children and women "within these walls" were never narrated about him. The film blasphemes the great man and the Muslims as blood thursty. Ignorant enough not to dig their wells when the fact is they shigned the christians life with knowledge.
The movie showed the ethnic and cultural diversity in the christian side, while it was actually in the Arabs side whom wrongly portraied as all dark skinned. It showed Muslims and jews living with the europeans, while they killed them all along with the Arab christians when they took over Jerusalem the first time..the jews were most hated by the christians that they massacered them inside the christian lands before they even reach the Arab lands. The jews by witness of history knew no better tolerance from other than the muslims and refujed to them. The Orthodux church was very delighted to regain its properties from the catholic church after Salahadeen opened Jerusalem. Some haters mentioned blathered about the great Arab conquests from Arabia into the christian lands- Short concultation for history sources would tell you that they
1-never forced no one on conversion- unlike the christians(untill only60 years ago)- and they were met as liberators
2-NEVER killed civilians - or prisoner of war.
3- they were met as liberators from the corrupt (church abiding) bezuntium empire. (ofcourse I can't claim that the met with flowers as the Americans claim in Iraq) a habit was not known back then.

Mennonite Group Claims Responsibility for New York Embassy Bombing
Ok, so it wasn't the Mennonites. Would you believe the Amish? How about Jehovah's Witnesses? No? Mormons?
When all else fails I follow South Park's advice and blame it on some Puerto Rican.
Some Puerto Rican claims responsibility for New York City Embassy Bombing.
Still, it just doesn't work.......
Anyway SITE is reporting that an Islamic group is claiming responsibility.
ADNKI Italy offers this:
A little known group known as the Soldiers of Levant (Jund al-Sham) has claimed responsibility for Thursday's explosions outside the British Consulate in New York. In a statement published via the Internet, the group said the attack was "the start of war inside America". No-one was injured in the pre-dawn blasts which shattered windows at the consulate. Soldiers of Levant claimed responsibility for a fire several weeks ago at an oil rig in Texas.Chad at In the Bullpen offers the case for why Jund al-Sham is probably not responsible."At dawn today, with the help of Allah, we placed two explosive devices in the heart of the enemy of Islam and of Muslims," the group proclaimed.
"America has already been hit by the Texas operation but despite this it maintains that that was not the work of mujahadeen. Today we announce the start of a war within and outside America and we will not hesitate at attacking festivities and cafes and hotels and churches."
There was also a threat to the United Kingdom - the New York blasts occured as British voters were going to the polls in general elections.
"As for you Great Britain, this was a special operation and a clear messages for you and the American people. None of you will be spared. We have already prepared for you the sword and if Allah wishes we will call on all the cells in America and start the battle."
Me? I've no idea. If this was an organized terror attack I think it says a little something about the organization. It seems much more like the act of a lone nut, maybe with the help of a buddy or two, inspired by jihad ideology.
On the other hand, Robert Spencer has been all over Jund al-Sham for awhile and has not yet dismissed the notion that the terror group was responsible for the Texas City refinery explosions.
Hat tip to our man on the ground in NYC who read about this over at Rantburg.
UPDATE: Mystery solved. Pinhead McBush's evil minions probably responsible.

Marla Marla Ruzicka: A Peace Activist's Journey From Leftist Activist to Leftist Martyr
David Horowitz has an excellent article in Front Page magazine about the life and times of murdered peace activist Marla Ruzicka. It seems that in her life she went from radical anti-American leftist activist to moderate leftist peacenick. But in her death she has become another martyr for Left's anti-American sentiments once again. Karma, I guess. Hat tip to Chuck Johnson.

Marla Ruzicka died because she took foolish risks and refused advice to the contrary.

The fact that she was a compassionate person who cared about the poor doesn't change the fact that she only cared about those who could be used for propaganda purposes against the US. I read a lot about her yesterday, but unfortunately didn't save the links. She was a child of Republican parents who instilled in her the love and compassion she felt, but she allowed herself to become a "useful idiot" of leftist traitors, dictator worshippers, and terrorist sympathizers.
It's a shame that she died, regardless of the circumstances, but it's bigger shame that she turned against her country, because in the end she was nothing more than a propaganda tool of the enemy. That's life though, you choose which side you want to play on, and don't expect any sympathy from your enemies.

There was everything anti-American about Ruzicka, from Code Pink right through her last blame-US-troops-for-everything organization. Your emotional response is a clear indication that you realize this, but are simply too pigheaded to admit it.

"There was everything anti-American about Ruzicka, from Code Pink right through her last blame-US-troops-for-everything organization."-Bluto
Apparently your definition of what is pro-American is narrowly defined. It's all about the silly war as far as you're concerned. America is much greater than that as Ruzicka understood. She tried to show the world America's best face. Finer Americans than Ms. Rusicka and Rachel Corrie are few and far between. That you figuratively spit on Ms. Ruzicka grave by calling her anti-American is reprehensible and cowardly and shows your lack of understanding of true American and Christian values.
Now go shave your head and walk backwards to confuse people.
Posted by: greg at May 04, 2005 02:13 PM (/+dAV)

It's an easy definition, greg (though I believe you misspoke, in your rage, and meant to say "broadly defined"). If you support Fidel Castro and revile the US while in high school, if you volunteer to serve as a "human shield" to protect the monster Saddam, if you twist incidents and deliberately leave out inconvenient facts in how you write about a war hoping to make your own country look evil; you are anti-American.
Now I realize you don't like things like facts entering your own little emotional fantasy world, greg, as evidenced by the snit you've flown into, but maybe if someone had done the same for Marla she'd still be alive today.
You and your friends killed her greg, by encouraging the foolish and self-destructive anti-American activities for which she received so much attention.

No, I meant what I said and I'm not in a rage. I laugh my ass off all day long fucking with you mooks. You define PRO-American narrowly, excluding everyone who isn't "down" with this war. But being pro-American hasn't a thing to do with ones stance on the war in my humble opinion.

Just like a fighter who smiles when he gets tagged in a vain effort to shrug it off, the evidence of your emotional breakdown here is all to obvious, greg. And it's easy to understand. Anyone who tries to win arguments without any facts whatsoever at their disposal is destined to suffer humiliation. Quite rightly. While you were floundering for a face-saving response I was researching and posting a roundup of successful anti-terrorist activity in Iraq.

I am a Mom of a social worker/activist about to graduate from college. She is not unlike Marla in both her beauty and her desire to help others devistated by war/policy/social injustice. To know that she died as she attempted to make the world aware of the "casualty of war" should sadden us all. While some of you view her work as "Anti-American"...we cannot dispute that it was pro-life. It is this message she worked so hard to show the world. To debate and discuss her reasons is futile...for it is not her reasons that made the difference....but the lives she has rebuilt. Whether these are Americans, Afghans, or Iraq civilians...they are human lives...who are victims of war. To those that mourn the troops of America and our Allies...my prayers are with you. To those families that mourn the loss of their loved ones killed in conflict everywhere...war is not the answer to find peace, for any of us. This beautiful "child" knew this....and in her death she has given her loudest statement of all. Even the most well intentioned get caught in the crossfire...Now her family will have to learn to rebuild after giving up a loved one to war...just as she helped so many others rebuild.
Marla, the candle of your life was seen by so many. And it has made a difference. And it this world so few of us do.

It is sad that this country and you assholes are so brainwashed. You let a complete idiot make you believe that there is a terrorist around the corner when the real terrorist lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Marla Ruzicka at least had the courage to do what she believed AND risk her life. You fucking faggots just sit around and talk shit. This country will not last because of cowards like you. When the day comes for you to have to fight, you will turn tail and run like that cocksucker in the White House did during the Vietnam war. I went to war and fought already. What have you assholes done for your country? That's what I thought. You don't know what courage is. Well, Marla didn't tell you, she showed you. Until you pick up a weapon and put on a uniform, shut the fuck up and be thankful men like me and people like Marla exist to save your sorry ass! Eat shit and die assholes!

War Hero Won't Release War Hero Records
It's been 90 days since John Kerry promised to sign the forms necessary to have his military records released. I'm sure he's just being overly modest about his heroics.

I thought Kerry's military records would come from the same publishers that G.W.'s came from. I forgot the name of it, but I am
sure it is the same publishers that produces Harry Potter. All three
are good pieces of fiction.

Interview with "Forsake the Troops" Founder
The Dread Pundit Bluto has interviewed Michael Crook, the force behind the Forsake the Troops website. When this site first was put up I thought it was a sick joke. Apparently I was wrong.
Would it surprise any of you to know that the man who wrote this:
Two entertaining photos for your amusement..an injured US soldier being carried away like the candy-ass punk he is, and a dead US scumbag (aka member of the US military) who will now probably cost the taxpayers money for many years to come.Is also a white supremist? From Bluto's interview:
I am a member of an organization that preserves the rights of White men and women. It does not, despite popular opinion, condone violence or hate crimes towards members of other races. Just as blacks have the NAACP, we have our organizations. I personally believe that we each have the right to live our lives, and each racial group has the right to promote and preserve their causes.Right, you're no racist pig. Go read the rest.

According to forsakethetroops. info
On Monday evening, the webmaster of Forsake The Troops was brutally assaulted by two men, thought to be members of the military, in response to their opinions about this website. Mr. Crook had been the target of numerous death threats and trespassers at his residence. All of these threats were saved and have been turned over to the authorities.
UPDATE:
At 6:19pm Eastern time, Michael Crook died of his injuries, after being rushed by ambulance to the leading hospital in the area for head trauma. The two men who allegedly assaulted him are currently in the custody of police. Mr. Crook died with his wife and infant daughter present.
It is therefore the decision of his family, and associates that Forsake The Troops goes offline, to prevent further incidents of violence and threats against his family. Therefore, this domain will permanantly go offline at around 5pm Eastern time, on Tuesday, May 17th, 2005.
Comments, and well-wishes may be addressed to noc@smishosting.com. Media inquiries (no interviews with family at this time), or sincere inquiries from well-meaning people may be directed to (315) 558-4372.
Leave a voice mail message and your call will be returned by our media representative. The family requests privacy at this time.

Apparently, for some unknown reason, no one can find any information in his home town of this ever happening. So, either it did happen and they are trying to hide it, or my theroy, he's just trying to bash the military again. If you notice it says in the blog on the website that "by two men, thought to be members of the military." I believe that this fairy tale is a cowardly act of retreat from a coward. What, the phone calls and the threats geting to much for you. Let's entertain the fairy tale and say that it did happen, this is exactly what someone like this deserves.
How's that for ignorance, the only reason he had the right to say the B.S. he wanted was because of the very people he was trashing. What an ignorant fuck. Take my opinion for whatever you want, but then again that's what makes this country so great.

Unfortunately todays media, some uninformed youth and spinless SCUM like this specimen look for opportunity to disrespect the U.S. military, particularly our toughest of the tough - the ARMY and MARINES. While many nations demand military service of their citizens, we still have an all volunteer service and have the best military in the world as a result. Our charter is to defend our nation against enemies foriegn and domestic, to stick up for the little guy and defend the rights outlined in our Constitution which includes the ability for this SCUM to run his mouth in hiding. Personnally, I think all American males should pull a minimum 2 year tour in service, this alone would help to weed out this filth. As one comment stated above, this piece of shit may simply be worming his way out of the public eye and using the military to aid in his disappearing act. If in fact he did get the shit kicked out of him - my hat is off to those who did it. I have pity only for the fatherless child left behind but certainly NOT for his widow that apparenlty found comfort in with a subhuman of his ilk. Decenting opinions are a right, active efforts to teardown National institutions and diminish the efforts to bring justice for wrong doings is tantamount to treason.
Not only has this shit for brains not had what it takes to serve his country; his defiling of our service men and women's sacrifices cuts at the very core of why we the worlds leader in human rights and defence of our nation. FUCK HIM!!!!! AND he's a racist white supremist FUCK HIM EVEN MORE!

Just like to say that the very military he was/or maybe still is dissing(if he is alive and is just scared now) is the very military that is protecting his rights and freedom. If he is dead the men and women of the military are protecting his rights to have justice sereved and let his family be at piece by prosecuting the perpetraders. To support this beief is maddness. Everyone that does support this belief that to forsake the troops needs to stop trying to get attention and stop whinning.(spelling maybe wrong)

Those of you talking about "schadenfraude" and commending whoever did this are as disgusting, if not more so, than Mr. Crook. This fascist, jingoist praise for violence against a man who did nothing more than exercise his GOD-given rights (the Constitution does not GIVE rights, it merely confirms them), is no less reprehensible than Crook's similar statements about armed forces casualties, and perhaps more so in that those who join the military do so with the understanding that they may die violently, and lately have been the invading and thus, offensive side in recent conflicts. That you can laugh and jeer at man being violently attacked and murdered for something he SAID revolts me to the core, and carries some frightening implications about the state of the union, if your reaction is in any way representative of how Americans in general would react to this news. It is people like you who will cheer when Bush becomes supreme protector of the state, suspends the constitution, and declares martial law after the next terrorist attack.
And even if this is a fake, comments like yours demonstrate that something is rotten in the land of the "free".

Wait, if the USMC is so great and top notch, then why do they feel that they have to kill anyone who makes fun of them? This is a sign of weakness.
Anyone who has to lash out at those who make fun of him is a cowardly, insecure weakling, not worthy of the immense responsibility and dignity associated with membership in the armed forces.
It is worthy of being a member of any common street gang or death squad though. That's exactly of .
If you support beating or killing someone simply because of their sick jokes, however sick the jokes, then you do not care about democracy. Paying lip service and saluting to flags and claiming to be a patriot does not mean you are defending the country, it just means you're following orders.
Just because you're good at doing what your commanding officer tells you to do, doesn't mean it's in the interest of the country, nor does it mean that you're defending freedom, or whatever. If your commanding officer told you to go burn all the books criticizing the government, and then hunt and kill those who wrote them, then you're just another fascist.
One thing that makes me proud to be an american is that when the fascists came to power, and took over the armed forces there with their fascist philosophy, that the US troops went over there and put them down before they took control of the world. I hate to think that we would turn around and let our our troops become fascists too, and for no real good reason.
If you think that power, physical might, is the only thing that determines moral supremacy, then you really have no right to be in the volunteer army, because it is an insult to the fighting men and women of the armed services to be represented by stupidity and hatred. That kind of scum is better off working for the mercenary security companies, where morals don't really matter.
You can't claim to be defending freedom while at the same time you supress freedom by encouraging extrajudicial retribution against a domestic dissenter. That makes you a hypocrite. Deal with it. You can't just keep repeating to yourself "I'm right - I'm right - I'm right" and somehow magically it will happen. It doens't work that way. You have to actually think things through sometimes and swallow your pride.
If it's not too big for you to handle, that is.

First of all no one has the right to insult the dead! You would smack some up side the head for calling your dead mother a whore. Well every dead soldier is a brother of every living one. Does no one understand this but the military. Every soldier that has lived or died in the service of his country's people deserve the upmost respect. They have all made great sacrifices and the dead the ultimate. But think of the so call lucky to live most of them dearly miss their brothers in arm that didn't. Disrespecting a soldier is a sick act, in the lowest of forms. Micheal Crook is a whining baby that never grew up. Micheal put down the crackpipe or whatever your smoking and step away. If I meet this creep I would have to hit him too. Sorry I'm not a pc pussy. Sometimes you have to speak softly, other times their is a reason to carry a big stick. I think he will never see the light. May God have mercy on his soul whenever he passes. I don't think God could forgive this one. With his words he has insulted even my father. I alone will not forgive him for that. What is bound on earth is bound in Heaven.

I don't have a web page, but if I did I would have a fun time with Michael Crook. One look at him is all you need to know about the bastard. I am a veteran (drafted 1956) and went willingly to serve my country. This little bastard Crook should be "adopted" by the 82nd Airborne or the Marines to give him a taste of what life is all about. As I told him in an e-mail, he wasn't birthed right. He entered the world right out of his worthless mother's ass.

Diplo:
Look back up at your post, and this particularly intelligent and charming passage:
"If your commanding officer told you to go burn all the books criticizing the government, and then hunt and kill those who wrote them, then you're just another fascist."
What does that mean? That's like me saying, "If your boss told you to go find a couple of homosexuals and kill them, then you're just another homophobic murderer." No argument there, right? Here's the deal- your boss DIDN'T ask you to go kill gays, and you HAVEN'T done so (as far as I know).
Nor did my CO tell me to burn books or kill their authors or anything else even REMOTELY fascist. If he HAD, he wouldn't be a CO for much longer. So, where do we stand? Right back at square one. We've broken even. Before you create an analogy, think it through. Excessive hyperbole will get you nowhere. Nor will using gargantuan words to try to dicombobulate your target audience. Try not to be so smart next time. Be dumb like the rest of the left-wing extremists, and you might actually make some headway.

I have two points. The first is that I don't know why everyone is saying his site is shut down. I went on it today. I had to read this moron's comments. Sadly people with his level of intelligence are breeding. Yet, we wonder why test scores are so low. My second point is one that has been made by others. The cowards in uniform are allowing him to say what he wants. I wish he could have had the oppurtunity to speak like this in, oh maybe, the former Soviet Union. Even more recently, the defeated regime of Saddam Hussein. Oh wait, the cowards in uniform took care of him. I note that when his country called for service, he lacked the courage to carry the flag that he says he loves so much.
I wish all of those who are loyal a good night and good rest. I'll be busy not earning my pay out in the middle of the ocean doing absolutely nothing for my beloved America.

I have a few things to say. June 6, 1944, thousands of american soldiers stormed the beaches of normandy and gave their lives for a cause most of them didn't know about or probably very much care to know about. They had simply answered the call of our great nation and did their duty to the fullest extent possible. Again in Korea and Vietnam, thousands answered the call and many made the ultimate sacrifice. Why did they do this? Well Mr Crook, they did it so that the world would be a better place and others could enjoy the freedoms that we take for granted here in America.
I look at some of the replies from some of the people on here an realize that they are just as uneducated as Michael Crook. You say that he was excercising his GOD given right. Well I'm sad to say that it isnt a GOD given right, its a constitution given right. If it was GOD given people in other countries would not have the fear of being killed for what he has said. Only in America can a man say what he did and call it freedom of speech. Only in America are we afforded this right. And only by the daily sacrifices made by our servimen and women are these rights kept.
You say you spit on our veterans, well I am in that brotherhood that you say you spit on and one day you will be dead and I pray to GOD that someone comes and spits on your graves, and the graves of your family. I have lost many of the men I love as brothers, they are closer to me than some of my own blood family. We have been threw the fire of the combat together, and came out baptized in the blood of our own, and that of the enemy. We have done all this, unselflishly giving our all and laying our lives down so that people like you can sleep in peace at night and wake up in the morning to say such horrible things. When I first read your words I was stunned and appalled that anyone would say such things. You say we are paid to much? That we have to many benefits? Look at the job we do. Look at what we go thru in our daily lives, when we deploy our families are left alone and wondering if we are coming back alive. And then look at the sports stars, and movie stars and you tell me who you think is paid to much. Our funerals are paid for by the goverment because thats their way of showing our families(they cant show us if we are dead) that they appreciated the sacrifices made, the blood spilled, and the life lost. And by the way Mr Crook, we pay taxes to. You arent the only people whop pay taxes, and if you want to use that against us, I dont want your perverted money to pay me.

Mr. Crook, this punk-ass dweeb, is a living being fulfilling his name. CROOK, in the aspect that he as an American, is Crooked. His life has been crooked, as he so lives it on a daily basis, this being gathered from his random and ridiculous thoughts that spews from crooked dreams. Crooked dreams that was robbed from him when he was just a child and this is his way of getting back at his worthless mother, a father that probably wanted nothing to do with him, and the kids that picked on him while growing up. He probably tried to join the military in some way, but was shunned by something he did in his lifetime that prevented him from doing so. Just looking at him, it's obvious his life is no better than the average American, financially, so what is he really trying to accomplish? More importantly, Who should he be directing his rubbish to?
With Americans like him, I think we should throw him across the border of a communist nation and see how he lives his crooked life there. Crook, you're such a loser. What's it feel like to no know that no one likes you, let alone, love you?
You dirty Crook.

This guy tried to join the military for 2 years waiting on paperwork for a supposed heart murmer (sp?) He has written 2 articles thatwere very pro military. one of course is his 1 month basic training sob story. Google search for them and you will find them. It's very interesting how one who was so Pro Military turned sour upon his loss of that opportunity due to a medical problem.
