(Copenhagen) Check this out. It's from Danish comedian Omar Marzouk who is also a Muslim.

Marzouk says terror humor has receptive audiences in unlikely places. He said he was greeted with hysterical cackles when, in recent shows in Israel and Britain, he suggested that the West recruit Muslims to prevent terrorist attacks by having them sit on buses, strapped with explosives, so when a real suicide bomber gets on, they can say, "Hey, man, it's O.K., I got this one covered."

From Interested-Participant.

Like all good autocracies, Libya doesn't want its citizens slaughtered openly.

Moammar: Nasr, how many times have we told you, put them in prison, then we kill them.

Nasr: My apologies, sir, it won't happen again.

Moammar: You're damned right it won't, you're getting the firing squad....er, you're fired!

pssst, check out how many times the word "peaceful" is used in the news article linked above.

First, they start with the rock throwing...

If the Gallup Independent gets a fatwa and we don't, I am going down there with a full load of cinderblock in my truck.

And just who do they think it is, the local Rotarians?

However, no evidence has been recovered proving the incident was in retaliation for the publication of the cartoons or was done by a member of the local Arab community.

Whoever did it, we all know it's really George Bush's fault.

Jay at Stop the ACLU is calling on Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to appoint a Special Counsel to investigate the activities of the ACLU. Among other things, Jay cites dissension within the ACLU ranks resulting in multiple resignations and ACLU spying on their own members.

One of the most troubling points is that in 2004 the ACLU refused to accept $1.15 million in grants from the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations because:

“The Ford Foundation now bars recipients of its funds from engaging in any activity that “promotes violence, terrorism, bigotry, or the destruction of any state.”

The Rockefeller Foundation’s provisions state that recipients of its funds may not “directly or indirectly engage in, promote, or support other organizations or individuals who engage in or promote terrorist activity.”

Why?

Former U.S. President Bill Clinton has called for European countries to convict the publishers of the Prophet Mohammed cartoons:

Daily Times—Former US president Bill Clinton on Friday condemned the publication of Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) caricatures by European newspapers and urged countries concerned to convict the publishers.

Talking to reporters after meeting Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz in Islamabad, Clinton said he disagreed with the caricatures and that the publication was against religious and ethical norms. Clinton said he had no objection to peaceful demonstrations being held worldwide, but this was not the time for violence. He said it was the time to promote inter-faith harmony and stand together on the issue. ...

Who let Bill out?

Cross-posted at OpinionBug.com

Update:

I looked at a video here (realplayer) and I didn't hear Clinton calling for the conviction of the publishers. It wasn't a complete recording of the press conference, but still, he isn't heard calling for the conviction of publishers.

Looks like the Daily Times may have really screwed up the translation after all. If so, my apologies to Jawa Report readers and former President Clinton.

TEL AVIV — Israel's military has found the perfect vehicle for special operations forces — the llama.

After extensive tests, the uncomplaining work-horse animals were found to easily out-perform donkeys. What's more, they need refuelling only every other day.

Irony on parade. Here are photos of the Fifth column operating in New York today. The protest over the Muhammed cartoons today in front of the Danish embassy that was organized by The Islamic Thinkers Society of New York. The retards in the MSM say that this group is simply upset about the blasphemous cartoons.

You may remember this group from past protests in the Big Apple where they shouted "we will kill you", and "next time we will get all of NYC". This is also the same group that burned the American flag and distributed the video. I've posted a few images from that video below. You can view the video here via Bareknuckles Politics.

Isn't it rich that they also carry around signs urging tolerance and calling Islam 'the religion of peace'? At one protest organized by them they could be heard screaming, God hates the US because they have Homosexuals.

Upset over the Muhammed cartoons? More like upset that the U.S. isn't an Islamic state and that the 9/11 terrorists killed so few.

Hat tip to Ace of Spades and Shawn Wasserman.

20 Livin4dawun: I'll tell you when I have the Freedom to oppress and mock other religions: When your religion tries to tell me how to live, attempts to force it's moral code upon me and threatens my freedoms by holding up signs saying you will "dominate." That isn't religion, that is ideology, you've overstepped the bounds of religion and as such it should be dealt with accordingly.

Posted by: dave at February 18, 2006 01:06 AM (CcXvt)

21 livin4dawun , Islam is at best a cult, religion it is not, nor ever has been. "Peaceful" or maybe you meant, full of pieces. You believe you can hijack the Muslim faith and have a leg to stand on. What peaceful things are you doing now, you deranged maniacs? You are morons, with a death wish for all. That's a good idea! Let's start with you! The only thing you said that was right was, "...I am done...". More done than asshole, terrorist, islamic pukes like you, can ever know. You have kicked the wrong dog and soon you'll be buried in bacon bits you incoherent fucks. If jerks like you had been responsible at all, you wouldn't find your dumb asses being ridiculed.

22 Oh, now the pinheads are saying we're thick-headed. Okay, Einstein, I'm going to give you a chance to tell us where in the US Constitution it says our Freedom of Speech is limited so as not to offend you or your knob-sucking 'prophet' . I'll save you the time and tell you that our 1st amendment right is absolute. There is no place that says we can't mock your 'religion of peace' even though there is certainly a lot to be mocked. Our Supreme Court will see to that if you can even get one of the liberal district courts to side with you. Where you and your pig-fornicating friends made your miscalculation is that most in this country aren't afraid of you like they are in Europe and we won't turn in our many weapons and surrender like the French. So, you 'peacefully wanted to bring that point across from you' did you? And I guess you did that by burning embassies, calling for yet another murder of human beings, and generally just looking foolish in front of the world. Great job getting your point across - assuming looking like a bunch of pricks was your point. Go ahead, al-Sparky, bring it on. As long as you and the other illerate cave dwellers live in the 8th century worshipping your pedophile, you're still just an uneducated pile of pork feces. Now process this: get back to your cave and finish up that batch of Nikes or we won't give you your 7 cents. Be a good boy and I'll pray to the true Lord God and ask him to forgive your soul. Actually, I'll pray for you anyway since we are taught to pray for those who are on the road to be condemed to hell in hopes that He will show you some mercy. Does your God teach the same thing or did you just bastardize his words on you own? God bless you.

Posted by: slug at February 18, 2006 01:39 AM (vQoK9)

23 remember this, when some smarmy starbucks liberal elite mocks the president and tells you "they don't hate our freedoms" It becomes obvious everytime you hear the Muslim voices, even in our own country that they hate freedom of religion ("Islam will dominate") they hate freedom of speech (cartoons) these things are offensive to Islam, because as we know Islam is incompatible with democratic values. I know we make fun of the so called 'moderate' Muslim, however they are here, and most of them have fled some shithole sandtrap where the above values are law and probably had one or more family member be a victim of the above type of theocracy, they most likely value the freedom of the United States, they don't have to be a Muslim, they do it by choice, they can eat pork or drink Alcohol, but choose not to. The only Muslims that are not a threat to the United States, are those that do not believe in the Caliphate agenda, believe others may practice their own religion and renounce violence done in the name of Islam. I hope they speak up soon.

26 Islamway, You would like us to learn your language? You are very lucky that we do not, for to listen to the garbage that you project over the airways the American people would have no doubt how much you hate us and what your intentions truly are. What you teach your young and old alike. I have always said, if the left started to listen to what is being said in Farsi and Urdu, instead of the apologetics published for Western consumption, they would get very uncomfortable indeed, and we would not have this problem of endlessly trying to convince them. As for Islam dominating the world. Just watch my middle finger Islamway, and be grateful that you have for the moment the moderates to protect you. When their bubble bursts, you will see an entirely different America, then I would advise you to simply leave.

They seem to expect that US culture will bend itself to fit THEIR vision. With everything else that's been said here, I'd also say the islamics are just a little narcissistic.. kinda like their libtarded brethren here in the US.

47 That was a joke right? even countries which are considered moderate "models" of Islam like Indonesia, Jordan et. al are on fire over CARTOONS. I assume by the use of your lingo, you are British, I saw a group of about forty Muslim people with signs in London promising/promoting violence. I am not sure why I did not see you, or any other moderates on the other side of the street denouncing the deeds of the so called 'few' extremists. See, the problem is, we hear from you so called moderates every week or so: except for us, your actions speak lounder than words, no one is denouncing the violence officially as un-islamic but ever so more telling there are no counter-protests, marches by moderates decrying violence done in the Prophets/Allah's name, and until that time we'll continue to believe you do not protest because you silently agree with the message, even if not the means.

51 The muslims who posted here do not even know their own religion whil they ask us to learn more.You ladies and men do noknow your own history .I do believe there are peaceful muslims but it has nothing to do with mohammeds religion,the reason you are a nice person is exactly because you don't really follow the tradtyion of your fals prophet.You believe that religion should be peace and love but that is because of the way the true God made us and the Good Lord commanded us even to love our enemies as much as possible(thats my little addition).You all need to open your eyes and shake off your sleep and recognize that the religion of mo began with him fighting and raiding caravans read the hadiths and see how they loved killing and war.Stop covering yourself and trying to make your false religion sound like the true religion of peace Christianiyt,which is easily proved by all of Jesus teaching without the need to twist it .unlike your own.Your religion is not one that emphasizes love and peace but blind acceptance and submission.One cannot leave islam without being cursed and killed,is that loving and peaceful and tolerant?that is just one thing and a small one compared to the rest.

Posted by: dave at February 20, 2006 01:47 PM (CcXvt)

53 Your prophet mo was a deceiver and probably deceived himself,a proven liar and unfaithful.He copied and borrowed everything from the jews and Christians but mixed it all up with his own opinions .the teaching is not even worthy to be called a teaching.Everyone knows that the koran is a book that just repeats the same thing again and again with nothing new only threats and threats.You must realize why you follow what you do does it come from freedom or your parent tradtion.If you just follow because you were taught it without examining it in detail then you are just like any idolater who worships a lizard because his parents did so,Abraham behaved not so,he left the worship of his parents to follow the true God.YOu must com e to the faith that is pleasing to GOd ,not as a slave but as sons and daughters,freely choosing.od already gave you the tools in your heart to come to him when your heart tells you religion should be peaceful and merciful since we want mercy ourselves and this is the religion of your heart which is christianity,so stop pretending and fooling yourself that this is what your false prophet said.Now this doesn ;t mean there are some wholesome aspects practiced in mulim families but the good parts do not come from islam but from simple family love, do not confuse them.Jesu is your only way and hope you will not enter paradise if you follow the killing false ptrophet mo.the jihadists are only imitating thier first example because they admire him,notice when a christian imitates his Lord Jesus Christ he becomes humble peaceful and a blessing to all men not violent.

55 Hey JJ and Maximus - I'm with ya and I'm ready to fight and I want to fight NOW and not save the fight like cowards for our children. The first thing we can do, every day, is CALL A nazi A nazi. Talk to our friends and try to explain what we are facing and that it is 1938 again NOW and that islam is the nazi's. Educate everyone you can on the reasons why islam is incompatible with the peace and safety of your children and grandchildren's future peace and security. Show the pictures, show what they say. They hang themselves with their own words (as you know) if people will just break through the denial or the MSM programming. Explain that you do not want and you will not tolerate your daughter in a burka, your son forced to kneel to this islamonazi facism crap EVER. Remember Patrick Henry said "As for me - Give me liberty or give me death" and I would ad to preserve the liberty, safety and security of my family, and yours Fight islam in every way possible NOW before it is too late! NEXT: DO NOT ALLOW THE TRAITORS IN OUR GOVERNMENT TO SELL OFF OUR PORTS TO AN ARAB COMPANY. (note that our government at all levels, both parties, seems to be giving the enemy the rope to hang us with) AT THE SAME TIME; DEMAND AN END TO moslem IMMIGRATION EXPELL moslems. This is not a relegion it is a nazi, totalitarian ideolgy and it should not be allowed to spawn in our country and use our freedoms to ambush us in the night. WE NEED TO DEMAND THAT NON CITIZEN moslems leave the country immediately or be deported for the security of the country. Close all mosques. These are enemy forward combat bases and should be closed, the nazi's deported. Build a wall on the Mexican border to prevent the current invasion of our country. The fight is comming and I'm with you. These things we can do now. Lets do them in every way. Lets confront and provoke these bastard retards. And dip your bullets in bacon grease. When it comes time, Deny them the reward they seek. FIGHT islam NOW

56 To islamway, Have you looked at your religion. It is full of hate, and death. I have. History shows Mohammed had sex with a nine year old girl. Hey, let us say that was a wrong print. It appears Mohammed enjoyed cutting off heads, and making slaves of women. Have you come across that information? Look, anyone with half a brain can see Islam is a false religion. It appears Mohammed was delusional. To me, Satan talked to Mohammed as god, and now their are a billion false moon god worshipping Muslims. Some are killing folks over cartoons. I bet you do not agree islamway, so I will keep going to the gym, keeping my ammo dry, and pray to Jesus who was raised from the dead, and sits at the right hand of G-d to help you see the light of truth. Over, and out. Buy Danish!

And yes i agree with freedom of speech, but the Danish cartoonists and Denmark itself went beyond the limit!! Plz think about! It's common sense!!! What if all this happened to you (non-muslims)!

60 The Quran from the perspective of a non-Muslim: Robin Peters is a 44 years old lady who read the Quran and then she liked to comment on what she've read .. so let's see what did she say .. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= The Koran is the Bible of Islam. Revealed to the world by Muhammad approximately 1,400 years ago, it is regarded by Muslims, universally, as the word of God to Muhammad and from him to all Islam. No devout Muslim disputes this; in this respect, there is more agreement among Muslims about the divine origin of the Koran (seen as having been literally dictated to Muhammad by the mouth of Allah Himself) than there is about the origins of the Bible among Christians. Even those of us forced to rely on translations of the Koran (considered interpretations of same because only the Arabic Koran is the literal Word of God) can see the literary value of this work. There is tremendous spiritual and psychological value in reading this book, as well, for Muslim and non-Muslim alike. For me, the psychological value of this book comes in its emphasis on right and wrong belief and standing up for what you believe in, even if it costs you dearly in terms of human relationships. Certainly, no one has accused Muslims of being wishy-washy about their faith! In fact, the differences in the various branches of Islam come from the ways in which they practice their faith. A Sunni Muslim will differ from a Shi'ite or Twelver Muslim in the way in which they practice their faith, but they will not disagree about the divine origin of the Koran or the fact that there are correct and incorrect beliefs. I think that Catholics and Protestants can learn an important lesson from Muslims in this regard; we have become so concerned with whether or not the Bible is inspired or dictated directly from the mouth of the Lord, or whether certain beliefs are correct or incorrect, or whether certain actions or practices are moral or immoral, that we are no longer truly Christian or loving of one another. The Koran basically mandates certain behavior from the rank-and-file believer. In this respect, Islam is less a religion than a way of life and pattern of behavior with Allah (God) at its very center. By way of contrast, Christians leave Christianity at the door of church on Sunday, still practicing that civil religion so popular during the 1950s and so offensive to those of us who take the Bible and Christ seriously. Muslims are expected to pray five times daily; Christians who pray once daily are seen as "out of the loop" and are thus discouraged from contacting God regularly unless it's to be polite during a worship service. Muslims fast at least one month a year; Christians generally ignore the need to undergo cycles of feasting and fasting, unless they belong to a denomination which takes Lent seriously. Muslims consider charitable donations a tax of sorts, due and payable once a year during the feast of Eid, one of the five pillars of the faith without which one is not a Muslim; Christians generally donate to charity with such highhandedness and snobbery that they might as well not donate one penny. I would strongly recommend that people of all religious persuasions read the Koran, if only to learn more about what Islam really is all about.

67 The so-called "holy" koran say's :005.073 YUSUFALI: They do blaspheme who say: Allah is one of three in a Trinity: for there is no god except One Allah. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them." So watch out when a muslim wants to punish blasphemists. Islam is the religion of fear and war for the infidels.

Posted by: Blasfemist at February 21, 2006 02:11 PM (z7Vhf)

68 Before I may begin, I would like to provide a few observations that I made. From reading the above posts, I can tell that many of these people are relatively uninvolved with politics, as well as the world in general. I would make an assumption that most of you are located in the central America, rural areas, because in those places it is highly understood that there is lack of an adequate variety of opinion and information; in other words are given no choice but to digest what they are fed, which in many cases may turn out to be the wrong food. Therefore, I do not blame you. However, what I do blame you for is how you allow closed-mindedness to captivate your thinking ability and you force yourselves to one option and one option only—ignorance and dependence. ANYWAY, I am from a very urban area, New York City, and I love it very much, and it has granted me the opportunity to obtain information and a myriad of thoughts and to hear both truth and lies, as well as establish my own thoughts, as opposed to being spoon-fed by “intimidating authority”. Well, if any of you need a little enlightening, feel free to ask me about my views and opinions, because I feel many of you are benighted and I don’t believe that it is fair to see my fellow humans, most probably American citizens, in that kind of a disposition, for I am a liberal and I feel I must educate you on the set-backs of society, esp. media and what everyone WANTS you to think and believe. By the way, while any of you may be at it, grab a couple of books and begin reading more liberal views. All you need is at least a 30% open mind and you will learn a lot, if proper books are even sold around your neighborhoods…such as what is censored from you everyday by the media. OK so we shall speak again… and one more thing: if anyone is going to spill any garbage facts, they should be totally disregarded. Any post that should be presented should have documented facts or direct proof (I.E. QURAN AND HADITH, many of you really don’t realize that people don’t always eat random dung). I mean, "Islam is the religion of fear and war for the infidels." Where do you support that, or did I happen to miss something? Come on, don’t be so ignorant.

Ok genius? I don’t think you were on that plane so stop believing your own lies you mentally challenged person. And where did anyone mention religion of peace? Well, now that it is mentioned…go ahead and try to defy that statement. Prove to me that Islam isn’t a religion of peace…NOT by bigotry but by clear proof…and I don’t want to see a person being used as an example either because people don’t always portray the correct thing, do they? Let me not even touch up on the sick people we have on earth…so don’t be so vague as to use people to convey the meaning of Islam.

73 Liberal, You have exhibited the very things you denounce in others.Many have made statements that are obviously contrary to you and so what?But you have not stated your position except to to step in with the arrogance of a fool.How typical of closed minded individuals to say what you said of all the participants up here.Do you have something to say or not,for so far you have made no meaningful point.You have not disproved anything up here.You only criticised and made all sorts of extreme unsound generalizations.Excuse me but is all that drivel and empty multiplication of words supposed to be wisdom.You sound sarcastic not intelligent.You only tried to say something to make yourself sound great and others bad.Who cares where you are from? Only a simpleminded person would try to wear that as a badge of honor unless it were in jest.Everything about what you said sound like you are projecting your own psyche on others,like it is a description of yourself,like you are originally from a small town and now think because your in NYC that you are sophisticated.Sorry you don't understand what is going on here, if you were wise you would and would have refrained from displaying such undignified pride.

Posted by: Michael Servetus at February 22, 2006 12:55 AM (e+j77)

74 I may or may not agree with everything said here or the way it is said,but I certainly understand what is going on and what is the cause of it.It doesn't matter where a person is from,if he or she is right then they are right.In a work entitled "Thus Spake Zarathustra" I remember that when the main character was called upon to give a reason for his position he answered,I thought it through so long ago, all that remains now is the result.So liberal friend why do you assume that these bloggers and patriots have not thought it through.You want somenone to explain themselves to you? Think it through yourself!We are living post enlightenment we don't have to get it from a book or "authority" the only authority here is our own reason excercised to discern truth all by itself,without any help.You should try it some time you might like it instead of spewing out typical,corny like Iowa lines about rural people.If you truly desire to know about Islam and its leader Mo then visit prophet of doom.com or faithfreedom.org,or the religion of peace.com. You behave like a decent muslim man I know who acts as though you could not have thought something through if you come to a conclusion other than the one he would like you to believe or that is against him.See we are all for compassion and tolerance but rational compassion and rational tolerance not the liberal brand of irrational compassion which is suicidal.

Listen, just because you sit in a Coffee bar in New York sipping an espresso while listening to new agers talk about basket weaving from Hemp, or the evils of Capitalism doesn't make you a deep thinker. Don't think you can come here and "educate" the "hayseeds" when you evidently do not even have a passing clue about the goals of Islam re: the Khalifah, Sharia, Taqiyya and kitman, the Mahdi etc. I suggest you come back here when you've read up on the above subjects and try your whole "deep thinking liberal" routine again.

77 I hope everyone here can see that each of us is human and if our labels were taken away, we would see how your problems are the same problems a muslim person faces, they have the same questions about this life on earth, about how to handle problems in life, the way to raise your kids, how to stay healthy, how to keep away from poverty, how to give something to the world before you leave it. All of you need to understand Islam, how much longer will we avoid looking into Islam through a muslims eyes, how much longer will we be frightened of just simply going to a muslim website to learn of their religion. In my limited experience Ive noticed that muslims behave and act 90% according to their faith, so if you want to have peace on earth without killing off all the muslims, you have to take advantage of reading about thier faith. It will help you help them. After talking and reading, im sure you will see how your screaming and shouting is no better than that of their fanatics - so how are we any better.

Posted by: sal vetoro at February 24, 2006 04:00 PM (hZ77x)

78 You didn't have to explain "In my limited experience" because your "give peace a chance" spiel gave it away instantly. You of course followed that message to a crescendo ending in moral equivalence between fanatics and the people who see Islam as a threat. No one is "frightened of Islam" except liberals like yourself who hide under the blankets at the very thought of insulting them. Most people that post here spend more time looking up facts, and statistics to do with Islam, and obviously have a greater understanding of it, excuse them if they do not subscribe to your philosophy of "All we need is love".

Taliban and al Qaeda supporters shown parading beheading victims in Pakistan on video. Disgusting. Via Chad at In the Bullpen this from the Times:

Disturbing video footage of beheaded bodies being paraded through the streets of southern Pakistan, in front of powerless police, has been broadcast today in Afghanistan.

Tolo TV, a private Afghan network, said that the men were killed a month ago in the tribal district of South Waziristan as a punishment for their opposition to the Taleban and al-Qaeda militias.

It would not reveal the source of the footage, whose authenticity has not been verified.

In one segment of the film, three decapitated heads are held up to cheers from a gathered crowd. Later, a number of bodies are seen being dragged behind a pick-up truck.

Crowds are heard chanting "long live Osama bin Laden" and "long live Mullah Omar", respectively the leaders of al-Qaeda and the Taleban.

Spend a little time talking to jihadis and a common theme emerges: they believe it is their religious duty to fight. In their view, this duty is imposed on them in the Quran and by the example of the Prophet Muhammed who, by most accounts in the most widely accepted hadiths, is a man not averse to killing his enemies and spreading Islam through force and the sword. If you are a Muslim and reject the authenticity of those hadiths and of that interpretation of Quranic verses, then what's the problem?

As the Demosophist has reminded me on several occasions, if Muhammed didn't endorse violent jihad then the caricature of him in Danish newspapers is of a false Muhammed and therefore should be offensive to no one. However, if Muhammed did endorse violent jihad, then he deserves to be blasphemed.

Diana West in the Washington Times via Powerline.:

When the widely influential Sheik Yusef al-Qaradawi can praise Muhammad as "an epitome for religious warriors [mujahideen]," Muhammad, a jihad model, shouldn't be a taboo subject in the West, either in caricature or commentary, and certainly shouldn't be super-sacralized, in effect, by a fearfully polite censorship. The subject should be laid out for all to see.

Here is a copy of the original affidavits relating to Vice President Dick Cheney's shooting accident. They come via USA Today and the Corpus Christi Caller-Times.

They are .pdf copies of the original affidavits filed by the Kenedy County Sheriff's Department. Click here to see them.

You'll notice that all involved agree this was an accident. No quantities of alcohol were consumed. That the Sheriff's department was notified almost immediately, etc. So much for the conspiracy theories and tirades about a 'cover up'.

For his part, Harry Whittington is apologetic about all the fuss that has been caused by being shot and looks forward to hunting with Cheney again in the future. more...

Wow, I never thought I'd be criticizing the Tories for being weak on terrorism. To their eternal shame they voted against Labour's proposal to outlaw the glorification of terrorism. The opposition claimed that the new law was not needed. But as Robert Spencer rightly points out, "If the existing laws were adequate to the problem, why did Abu Hamza preach unhindered for seven years?" Indeed.

This is not Thatcher's Conservative Party.

A Pakistani Muslim cleric has issued a fatwa and offered up to $1 million to any one of the few misunderstanders of jihad who will kill Danish cartoonists involved in drawing images of Muhammed. The cleric has visited upstate New York to give inspirational talks to American Muslims and may have some relationship to radicals that use Islamic schools in rural areas as fronts for terrorist training mentioned in this earlier post.

UPDATE: I am now completely confused. Traderrob points out that ABC deliberately left out parts of the 12 hour tape in which Saddam actually threatens to use a third party to attack the U.S. with WMD! So, take that into consideration as you read the following rant that I wrote before learning of this.

------

Not only are the 12 hours of tapes set to be released to the public by John Loftus tomorrow a fizzling non-event, but the media and many on the Right side of the blogosphere have taken those tapes out of context, twisting them to find hidden meaning where no meaning is to be found.

Without naming names, can I just say that it is totally out of context to read Saddam Hussein's warnings that 'terrorism is coming to America' as a veiled threat. Many on the Right have been so eager to find WMDs in Iraq that they are letting wishful thinking cloud their judgement. The tapes are no 'smoking-gun' more...

UPDATE: Pakistani cleric with ties to this group has placed a $1,000 bounty on Danish cartoonist's head.

Disturbing report from WND about terror groups using Islamic schools in the U.S. as a front for their recruitment and training activities.

I'm *shocked*. Thanks to Nicholas for sending this link:

The Pakistani terrorist group Jamaat ul Fuqra is using Islamic schools in the United States as training facilities, confirms a joint investigative report by an intelligence think tank and an independent reporter.

A covert visit to an encampment in the Catskill Mountains near Hancock, N.Y., called "Islamberg" found neighboring residents deeply concerned about military-style training taking place there but frustrated by the lack of attention from federal authorities, said the report by the Northeast Intelligence Network, which worked with an Internet blogger, "CP," to publish an interim report.

The neighbors interviewed, who asked not to be identified, said they feared retaliation if they were to make a report to law enforcement officials.

"We see children – small children run around over there when they should be in school," one neighbor said. "We hear bursts of gunfire all of the time, and we know that there is military-like training going on there. Those people are armed and dangerous." ...

Jamaat ul-Fuqra, or "community of the impoverished," was formed by Pakistani cleric Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani in New York in 1980. Gilani, who refers to himself as "the sixth Sultan Ul Faqr," has stated his objective is to "purify" Islam through violence.

Gilani also is the founder of a village in South Carolina called "Holy Islamville."

The encampment in Hancock, N.Y., is run by a front for Jamaat ul-Fuqra called Muslims of the Americas Inc., which operates a school known as the International Quranic Open University Inc....

Though primarily based in Lahore, Pakistan, Jamaat ul-Fuqra has operational headquarters in the U.S.

The group seeks to counter "excessive Western influence on Islam" through any means necessary, publicly embracing the ideology that violence is a significant part of its quest to purify Islam. The enemies of Islam, the group says, are all non-Muslims and any Muslim who does not follow the tenets of fundamentalist Islam as detailed in the Quran.

Jamaat ul-Fuqra openly recruits through various social service organizations in the U.S., including the prison system. Members live in compounds where they agree to abide by the laws of Jamaat ul-Fuqra, which are considered to be above local, state and federal authority.
