Rub Salt in the Wound: Reissued!!!

Obamination: Press Conference; Same Excrement, Different Day

When I heard a sound bite on ABC radio news, I struggled to come up with a headline. I have settled on this:

Same Excrement, Different Day.

    President Barack Hussein Obama never tires of repeating the same al-Taqiyya; I tire of  refuting  his lies, but I will continue because I view  truth as a sacred value which must be preserved in order to preserve liberty.  As usual, I will take the worst lies out of context and refute them.  Those desiring the whole sack of feces can choose between the video:  Press Conference Video   and the transcript.

"As I said in Cleveland on Wednesday, I ran for President because I believed the policies of the previous decade had left our economy weaker and our middle class struggling.  They were policies that cut taxes, especially for millionaires and billionaires, cut regulations for corporations and for special interests, and left everyone else pretty much fending for themselves.  They were policies that ultimately culminated in a financial crisis and a terrible recession that we’re still digging out of today. "

    The policies that weakened our economy  belong to the LibTards in Congress and the White House, both Democrat and Republican.  There is no free lunch and no magic wand.  Due to the intentional destruction of  our system of education, the general public lacks the knowledge of economics necessary to anticipate the stream of lies coming from hucksters & politicians.  They did not learn from the .com bubble, so they bought into the housing bubble and got stung again.

    This story has three morals:

1. Get politicians & union goons out of the education system. 
2. Caveat Emptor!!!
3. Never vote for a LibTard!!!

    It is not possible to spur economic growth by wasting vast sums on boodoggles and increasing the national debt.  It is necessary to get more money into the hands of consumers and increase their confidence in the economy.  Everything Obama proposes is counterproductive.

"And finally, tomorrow we will commemorate not only the heartbreak of September 11th, but also the enduring values and resilient spirit of America.  Both Michelle and I will be joining our fellow citizens in remembering those who were lost on that day and honoring all who exhibited such extraordinary heroism in the midst of tragedy.  I’ll have further remarks tomorrow, but for now let me just note that tomorrow is a National Day of Service and Remembrance and I hope each of us finds a way to serve our fellow citizens -- not only to reaffirm our deepest values as Americans, but to rekindle that spirit of unity and common purpose that we felt in the days that followed that September morning."

heartbreak of September 11th

    This demagogue can enrage me without  making an effort. Expressions like that make my blood boil.  Evil men, motivated by  the evil doctrines of an evil institution committed an evil act designed to destroy our economic strength and crush our will to resist.  There are empty chairs at three thousand dinner tables because of that act. 

enduring values of America

    Those words are polluted by passage through the lips of demagogues who  have no respect for our God given rights to life, liberty, property; freedom of speech,  religion, assembly & petition.   Islam is a predatory way of life, not a religion. It has a religious component which serves to motivate its murderers and camouflage their mercenary mission.  It is  180° out of phase with each and every one of those American values to which the demagogue alluded.  None of those are applicable to it.

National Day of Service and Remembrance

    Shanghai us into slavery in the guise of  honoring the dead. Christ save me, how I hate that liar!!!  A day of cursing Islam and renewing our resolve to destroy it completely.

deepest values as Americans

    Those alluded to above, which are enshrined in the Declaration of Independence & Constitution which Obama hates and violates.  Abomination!!!

spirit of unity and common purpose

    Unity in cursing the evil institution which inspired the murderous act of war which killed three thousand and did billions of dollars of economic damage.  Unity in seeking national security; in the urge to prevent further attacks.  Unity destroyed by carping demagogues and their willing accomplices in the media. Common purpose wasted by a weak President who could not bring himself to name and declare war against the enemy.

"I think that at a time when the country is anxious generally and going through a tough time, then fears can surface, suspicions, divisions can surface in a society. And so I think that plays a role in it."

suspicions, divisions can surface

    Translation: "Islamophobic bigots are blaming Muslims for every evil on the face of the earth--scapegoating them as Hitler scapegoated  Jews."  No rational person is blaming our economic situation on Muslims or their war cult.  They own the blame. for the accursed abomination of nine years ago and subsequent attacks both failed and successful.

"One of the things that I most admired about President Bush was after 9/11, him being crystal-clear about the fact that we were not at war with Islam. "

not at war with Islam

    Muslims, motivated by the damnable doctrines of Islam, which promise them forgiveness of sins and eternal carnality in Allah's celestial bordello, attacked us in the name of Allah, as they are commanded to do by that demon.  They shouted "Allahu Akhbar!" while slitting the throats of the flight crews. Islam declared and prosecuted war against us  So, why the Hell are we not at war against it?

    Deniers are damned fools, Shrub included.  More than two hundred years ago, the Barbary  Pirates sacked our shipping and nearly bankrupted the new nation with demands for tribute.  When asked by what right they attacked us, they gave a very enlightening answer.

"The ambassador answered us that [the right] was founded on the Laws of the Prophet (Mohammed), that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have answered their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman (or Muslim) who should be slain in battle was sure to go to heaven." [Wikipedia]

• founded on the laws of the Prophet
• written in their Koran
• those not submissive are sinners
• right and duty to make war on them
• enslave them
• martyrs  going to heaven 

    Is there some part of the Muslim's answer to Adams & Jefferson that you  can not comprehend?   What part of it escapes Obama's comprehension??  When caliph Umar sent his army to Persia, the Persian general asked a  question similar to Jefferson's and received a similar answer.  This crucial quote comes from Sahih Bukhari 4.53.386.

Our Prophet, the Messenger of our Lord, has ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah Alone or give Jizya (i.e. tribute); and our Prophet has informed us that our Lord says:-- "Whoever amongst us is killed (i.e. martyred), shall go to Paradise to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever amongst us remain alive, shall become your master."

• Prophet ordered us to fight you
• martyrs go to Paradise
• survivors will be your master

    Can you see the parallels?  Can you connect the dots?  Why can't  Shrub & Obama???  They can but they won't, because Shrub was not comfortable with the fact that he had two  options: to kill 1.3 billion people or break their faith so that they would no longer be Muslims obligated to wage war against us.   Obama won't because he is one of them.  His father was Muslim; Islam passes through patriarchy. A Muslim's children are Muslims, by Islamic law.  If Obama had a genuine conversion, he would condemn Islam because he knows its evil from the inside. 

"We were at war with terrorists and murderers who had perverted Islam, had stolen its banner to carry out their outrageous acts."

terrorists and murderers   

    Read "Muslims". Terrorism is an intrinsic sacrament of Islam. "I will cast terror", "so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes", "to strike a terror", "Allah cast terror",  "I have been made victorious with terror".  How do you refute the Islamic record of what Allah & Moe said and did?

perverted Islam

    In  the previous paragraph, I gave you quotes from the Qur'an & hadith.  Allah said that he would and did "cast terror".   Moe said that he was made victorious with terror.  What part of that do you not comprehend?  I gave you links; click them and read multiple translations of the Qur'an and one translation of Sahih Bukhari.

    `Who perverted Islam?  Allah said something about war. I will quote one of those statements, an  imperative commanding Muslims to wage war against Jews, Christians & Zoroastrians.  This quote is from J.M. Rodwell's translation, linked to multiple translations.

9:29. Make war upon such of those to whom the Scriptures have been given as believe not in God, or in the last day, and who forbid not that which God and His Apostle have forbidden, and who profess not the profession of the truth, until they pay tribute out of hand, and they be humbled.

    What did Allah command Muslims to do?  Most of the translators  give it as fight.  What does it mean?  Moe told his companions what it meant to him, who is more expert in interpreting his revelations?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 8, Number 387:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Allah's Apostle said, "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah." Narrated Maimun ibn Siyah that he asked Anas bin Malik, "O Abu Hamza! What makes the life and property of a person sacred?" He replied, "Whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah', faces our Qibla during the prayers, prays like us and eats our slaughtered animal, then he is a Muslim, and has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have."  [Emphasis added.]

That Islamic scripture & oral tradition are codified in Shari'ah; Islamic law.  I quote from Reliance  of the Traveller, the handbook of Shafi'ite Fiqh.

o9.8: The Objectives of Jihad

The caliph (o25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: o11.4) -which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself-while remaining in their ancestral religions) (O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,

"Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden-who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book-until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled" (Koran 9.29), [Emphasis & link added.]

• Make war upon...
• ordered to fight
• caliph makes war

    What did Al-Mughira  say to the Persian general?  What did Sidi Haji Abdrahaman say to Adams & Jefferson?  Then on what quicksand does Obama stand while asserting that Islam has been "perverted"?  Moe set the standard of Islam with his recitation and actions.  Islamic law, founded on that recitation & sunnah, obligates Muslims to wage war against disbelievers, aggressive, offensive warfare on Islamic initiative at least one attack per year.  President Obama is a liar and a traitor.  I direct doubters & dissenters to Reliance of the Traveller, Book o9.0 through 9.9. Clueless morons who  believe that those imperatives are anachronistic or metaphorical are directed to the following resources for correction.  The last listed item  will disabuse you of the delusion that Moe only fought defensive battles.

• Sahih Bukhari 4.52 Jihad
• Sahih Bukhari 4.53 Khumus
• Sahih Bukhari 5.59  Expedition
• Sahih Muslim  Jihad
• Sunan Abu Dawud Jihad
• Malik's Muwatta Jihad
• Extortion letter to the Rulers of Aqaba

"And I was so proud of the country rallying around that idea, that notion that we are not going to be divided by religion; we’re not going to be divided by ethnicity.  We are all Americans.  We stand together against those who would try to do us harm. "

not going to be divided

by religion

by ethnicity

    How can  anyone hear or read those words without cursing?  Obama and his party have made a career of racial & ethnic division as well as economic class warfare which is exemplified early in his press conference. He demands that a Mosque be erected on Ground Zero but says nothing about a Greek Orthodox Church that has been frustrated by bureaucrats for nine years.  America ain't hyphenated.

"And I think it is absolutely important now for the overwhelming majority of the American people to hang on to that thing that is best in us, a belief in religious tolerance, clarity about who our enemies are -- our enemies are al Qaeda and their allies who are trying to kill us, but have killed more Muslims than just about anybody on Earth. "

religious tolerance

    First, Islam is a predatory way of life, not a religion. It preys upon the human race.  It declared and is prosecuting war against pagan and scriptural disbelievers.

    Second, tolerance must be reciprocal; Islam is intolerant.  Islam does not tolerate any religion, it only tolerates Islam. Get a clue.

3:85. And whoever seeks a religion other than Islâm, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers.

    Islam curses us.

9:30. And the Jews say: 'Uzair (Ezra) is the son of Allâh, and the Christians say: Messiah is the son of Allâh. That is a saying from their mouths. They imitate the saying of the disbelievers of old. Allâh's Curse be on them, how they are deluded away from the truth!

    When Islam triumphs over Christians, it imposes draconian legal and social restrictions on them.  This quote from Reliance of the Traveller informs us that Christians can not give testimony in trials. Only Muslims can testify!

o24.2 Legal testimony is only acceptable from a witness
 who:
(a) is free;
(b) is fully legally responsible (mukallaf, def:
c8.1) (0: as testimony is not accepted from a child
or insane person, even when the child's testimony
regards injuries among ehildren that oeeurred at
play);
(e) is able to speak;
(d) is mentally awake;
(e) is religious (0: meaning upright (024.4)
(A: and Muslim), for Allah Most High says,
"Let those of rectitude among you testify"
(Koran 65:2),
and unbelief is the vilest form of corruption, as
goes without saying); [Emphasis added.]

o11.5 Such non-Muslim subjects are obliged to
comply with Islamic rules that pertain to the safety
and indemnity of life, reputation, and property. In
addition, they:
(1) are penalized for committing adultery or
theft, though not for drunkenness;
(2) are distinguished from Muslims in dress,
wearing a wide cloth belt (zunna:r);
(3) are not greeted with "as-Salamu
'alaykum" ;
(4) must keep to the side of the street;
(5) may not build higher than or as high as
the Muslims' buildings, though if they acquire a
tall house, it is not razed;
(6) are forbidden to openly display wine or
pork, (A: to ring church bells or display crosses,)
recite the Torah or Evangel aloud, or make public
display of their funerals and feastdays;
(7) and are forbidden to build new churches.
011.6 They are forbidden to reside in the Hijaz,
meaning the area and towns around Mecca,
Medina, and Yamama, for more than three days
(when the caliph allows them to enter there for
something they need).[Emphasis added.]

    Exactly why in Hell should we tolerate a war cult which curses us,  denies the sanctity of our blood and property, denies our rights; declares & prosecutes war upon us!??

clarity about who our enemies are

     What book contains a clear command to wage war upon us?  Whose book is that?  Then who the Hell is our enemy!??  "Its Islam, stupid!"  Who prays for our defeat? Who burns our flag? Who marches in the streets chanting "Death to America!"?  Who carries signs declaring "Freedom go to Hell!"??

    The fact that Islam is divided into schismatic sects who hate each other's existence does not make any of them our friends or allies. They have one thing in common: hatred of disbelievers.

"And I will do everything that I can as long as I am President of the United States to remind the American people that we are one nation under God, and we may call that God different names but we remain one nation."

call that God different names

    There is one God, aid he ain't Allah!  Allah is an ancient deity of  pagan Arabia, previously going under different names including Baal and Sin. Read the Qur'an and see if it reflects the God you worship.

"But I’m also respectful that people of different faiths can practice their religion, even if they don't subscribe to the exact same notions that I do, and that they are still good people, and they are my neighbors and they are my friends, and they are fighting alongside us in our battles."   

practice their religion

    Does the practice of religion include obedience to religious obligations?  Are you aware of the fard al-kifaya of Jihad?  It binds all free, able bodied & sane adult male Muslims until a sufficient number have reported to the front. I refer doubters & dissenters to Reliance o9.1.  Muslims can not practice Islam without waging war on us. Its what they do; what Allah purchased them for.

9:111. Verily, Allâh has purchased of the believers their lives and their properties; for the price that theirs shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allâh's Cause, so they kill (others) and are killed. It is a promise in truth which is binding on Him in the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) and the Qur'ân. And who is truer to his covenant than Allâh? Then rejoice in the bargain which you have concluded. That is the supreme success . [Emphasis added.]

    When disbelievers retaliate and invade Muslim lands, the obligation becomes  fard ayn, binding upon all Muslims. If they are overrun, that includes women and children and Muslims wheresoever dispersed over the face of the earth.

    Muslims are obligated to obey Allah and  his Messenger. What did Allah command them to do?  What did Moe do for them to emulate?  In the last nine years of his life he started a war every six weeks on the average.   Get a clue.

they are my friends

    If they are good, obedient Muslims, they are not your friends. Allah expressly forbids friendship & partnership with disbelievers, even if they are parents  & siblings.

3:118. O you who believe! Take not as (your) Bitânah (advisors, consultants, protectors, helpers, friends, etc.) those outside your religion (pagans, Jews, Christians, and hypocrites) since they will not fail to do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely. Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed We have made plain to you the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses) if you understand.

9:23. O you who believe! Take not for Auliyâ' (supporters and helpers) your fathers and your brothers if they prefer disbelief to Belief. And whoever of you does so, then he is one of the Zâlimûn (wrong-doers, etc.).

"President Abbas and Prime Minister Netanyahu were here last week, and they came with a sense of purpose and seriousness and cordiality that, frankly, exceeded a lot of people’s expectations.  What they said was that they were serious about negotiating."

serious about negotiating

    There is no limit to treachery & irrationality. There is no peace between Muslims and Jews, never was and never will be.  I have a few clues for you in addition to 9:29, previously cited.

7:167. And (remember) when your Lord declared that He would certainly keep on sending against them (i.e. the Jews), till the Day of Resurrection, those who would afflict them with a humiliating torment. Verily, your Lord is Quick in Retribution (for the disobedient, wicked) and certainly He is Oft­Forgiving, Most Merciful (for the obedient and those who beg Allâh's Forgiveness).

Who might Allah send to torment the Jews?  Any nominees?

2:191. And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah is worse than killing. And fight not with them at Al-Masjid-al-Harâm (the sanctuary at Makkah), unless they (first) fight you there. But if they attack you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.

Sunan Abu Dawud Abu Dawud 14.2477
Narrated Ibn Hawalah:

    The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: It will turn out that you will be armed troops, one is Syria, one in the Yemen and one in Iraq. Ibn Hawalah said: Choose for me, Apostle of Allah, if I reach that time. He replied: Go to Syria, for it is Allah's chosen land, to which his best servants will be gathered but if you are unwilling, go to your Yemen, and draw water from your tanks, for Allah has on my account taken special charge of Syria and its people.

Sahih Muslim Book 041, Number 6985:
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews. [Emphasis added.]

    The Roman Province of Syria was conquered by caliph Umar in 638, driving out many Jews and Christians. In 1948, the jews recovered a tiny fragment of their stolen patrimony. Muslims can't tolerate that because land once conquered must forever remain  in Muslim hands, it belongs to Allah.  Allah promised them a two to one kill ratio and victory.  Israel's successful self-defense proves Allah to be an impotent idol. That is the ultimate blasphemy which Muslims will never accept.  There will be peace when there are no more Muslims, not until then, no matter what suicidal concessions you force Israel to make.

"The idea that we would burn the sacred texts of someone else’s religion is contrary to what this country stands for.  It’s contrary to what this country -- this nation was founded on.  And my hope is, is that this individual prays on it and refrains from doing it."

we would burn

    The planned Qur'an burning is a private affair, belonging to the church involved, not to the nation as a whole or the government.

contrary to what this nation's foundation

    This nation was founded on Judeo-Christian ideals, not Muslim ideals.  The founders declared that we are free to choose what, when & how to worship or not.  Islam declares that only Allah has the right to be worshiped and that war must be waged to secure that right.  The Qur'an contains the conquest imperatives behind the accursed abomination perpetrated nine years ago today.   This nation was also founded on the ideal of free expression.  Pastor Jones has a right to express his indignation at Islam's demon worship & genocidal conquest.

"But I’m also Commander-in-Chief, and we are seeing today riots in Kabul, riots in Afghanistan, that threaten our young men and women in uniform.  And so we’ve got an obligation to send a very clear message that this kind of behavior or threats of action put our young men and women in harm’s way.  And it’s also the best imaginable recruiting tool for al Qaeda."

this kind of behavior

    Our very existence offends Muslims.  Nothing Pastor Jones can do will offend them more than the presence of our troops in Afghanistan.  They need no further  pretext for hating and attacking us.  We can not exacerbate their hatred by any  act or omission.

    Backing down and suspending or canceling the protest as Pastor Jones has done is the worst possible error.  It gives Islam a victory, proof that terror and the threat thereof is effective.  It will  enhance terrorist recruitment and funding.

    My blog posts enrage them. One of my blogs has been banned by Pakistan. What is to stop you from demanding  that my free expression of  relevant, verifiable  factual information be censored?  By God I stand on the  free speech clause of the First Amendment!!

    Our national security is not endangered by  those of us who expose & condemn Islam, it is endangered by traitors like you who appease Muslims and fail to eradicate Islam from the face of the earth.

"Well, I think it needs to happen.  And we’re going to work with members of Congress -- and this is going to have to be on a bipartisan basis -- to move this forward in a way that is consistent with our standards of due process, consistent with our Constitution, consistent also with our image in the world of a country that cares about rule of law.  You can’t underestimate the impact of that.  Al Qaeda operatives still cite Guantanamo as a justification for attacks against the United States. Still to this day.  And there’s no reason for us to give them that kind of talking point when, in fact, we can use the various mechanisms of our justice system to prosecute these folks and to make sure that they never attack us again."

consistent also with our image

    Image be damned! Its the reality that is important, not any image, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  Khalid Sheikh Mouammad and his colleagues signed a confession in which they took pride in what they did, based on Allah's accursed imperatives and Moe's damned example.  They need  trials like you need a toothache.

    Holding prisoners is the greatest possible incentive for fresh attacks because the enemy seeks hostages for exchange.  Just usher them into Hell immediately and be done with them!!!

    Those are unlawful enemy combatants, not purse snatchers.  They do not deserve the privileges & immunities of citizens charged with petty offenses. F.D.R. set a good precedent, follow it.

"Here’s what I think.  I think that in this day and age, there are going to be -- there is always going to be the potential for an individual or a small group of individuals, if they are willing to die, to kill other people.  Some of them are going to be very well organized and some of them are going to be random.  That threat is there.  And it’s important, I think, for the American people to understand that, and not to live in fear.  It’s just a reality of today’s world that there are going to be threats out there."

willing to die, to kill other people

    Being killed in battle  against disbelievers is the only guaranteed ticket to the best levels of  the celestial bordello.  It is also the only certified get out of Hell free card.  If they are fully informed and really believe, they will seek martyrdom.

not to live in fear

    After the accursed abomination there was anxiety over follow up attacks.  During the D.C. Sniper episode, there was great anxiety and a few copy cat attacks.  Those attacks are calculated to tear our social fabric, to induce paranoia and make normal  life impossible.   Ultimately, terrorism is intended to render its victims incapable of mounting   an effective defense effort.

    There is one and only one solution to this problem:  remove the Islamic fifth column from our  soil and keep them out.  Deport Muslims and ban them from entering.  If we won't do that, we won't have security.

"We are tougher than them.  Our families and our businesses and our churches and mosques and synagogues and our Constitution, our values, that's what gives us strength.  And we are going to have this problem out there for a long time to come.  But it doesn’t have to completely distort us. And it doesn’t have to dominate our foreign policy.  What we can do is to constantly fight against it.  And I think ultimately, we are going to be able to stamp it out.  But it’s going to take some time."

churches and mosques

        The two do not belong in one sentence. Mosques are places where Muslims congregate to curse us and pray for our defeat. Seventeen times each day they remind Allah of why he wants to burn us; how  we went astray or earned his  wrath.  Mosques are their armories. Recently, fifteen Muslims died in a Mosque in Afghanistan when their bomb detonated prematurely.

    Religious faith is part of our strength.  According to S.K. Malik's Qur'anic Concept of War,  destroying faith is a necessary prerequisite to instilling terror.

"With respect to the mosque in New York, I think I’ve been pretty clear on my position here, and that is, is that this country stands for the proposition that all men and women are created equal; that they have certain inalienable rights -- one of those inalienable rights is to practice their religion freely. And what that means is that if you could build a church on a site, you could build a synagogue on a site, if you could build a Hindu temple on a site, then you should be able to build a mosque on the site."

all men and women are created equal

    Islamic law says that we can not build churches or maintain existing churches.  Islamic law says that we can not testify in court.  Islamic law says that the testimony of one man is equal to that of two women.

build a mosque on the site

    The St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church stood across the street from the towers. It was crushed when they collapsed.  The bureaucrats of the Port Authority have given them the run around for nine years, they celebrated Christmas in a tent.  But the Mosque is on the fast track.

practice their religion freely   

    The practice of Islam involves waging war on disbelievers.  President Obama said that  Muslims have a right to practice Islam. President Obama is a traitor because he postulates a right to wage war against us. Democrats, ignoramuses and damned fools will deny this. Let them; facts trump emotions..

 9:38. O you who believe! What is the matter with you, that when you are asked to march forth in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd) you cling heavily to the earth? Are you pleased with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But little is the enjoyment of the life of this world as compared with the Hereafter.

9:39. If you march not forth, He will punish you with a painful torment and will replace you by another people, and you cannot harm Him at all, and Allâh is Able to do all things.

"And fortunately, the overwhelming majority of Muslims around the world are peace-loving, are interested in the same things that you and I are interested in:  How do I make sure I can get a good job?  How can I make sure that my kids get a decent education?  How can I make sure I’m safe?  How can I improve my lot in life?  And so they have rejected this violent ideology for the most part -- overwhelmingly.".

peace-loving Muslims

    Hypocrites, not Muslims if they love peace; their Islam goes no deeper than their throats.

interested in

    They are interested in pleasing Allah, staying out of Hell and getting into  the celestial bordello. Believers sold their souls so that they fight in Allah's cause, "kill others and are killed".

improve my lot in life

    In Psychology class, we were taught that all humans share  a common hierarchy of needs. Tell that to Allah.

9:38. O you who believe! What is the matter with you, that when you are asked to march forth in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd) you cling heavily to the earth? Are you pleased with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter? But little is the enjoyment of the life of this world as compared with the Hereafter.

6:32. And the life of this world is nothing but play and amusement. But far better is the house in the Hereafter for those who are Al­Muttaqûn (the pious - see V.2:2). Will you not then understand?

6:70. And leave alone those who take their religion as play and amusement, and are deceived by the life of this world. But remind (them) with it (the Qur'ân) lest a person be given up to destruction for that which he has earned, when he will find for himself no protector or intercessor besides Allâh, and even if he offers every ransom, it will not be accepted from him. Such are they who are given up to destruction because of that which they have earned. For them will be a drink of boiling water and a painful torment because they used to disbelieve.

4:74. Let those (believers) who sell the life of this world for the Hereafter fight in the Cause of Allâh, and whoso fights in the Cause of Allâh, and is killed or gets victory, We shall bestow on him a great reward. [Emphasis added.]

"The other reason it’s important for us to remember that is because we’ve got millions of Muslim Americans, our fellow citizens, in this country.  They’re going to school with our kids.  They’re our neighbors.  They’re our friends.  They’re our coworkers.  And when we start acting as if their religion is somehow offensive, what are we saying to them? "

their religion is somehow offensive

    What? Declaring unending warfare against the rest of the human race is not offensive?  Declaring women to be half as intelligent and half as valuable as a man is not offensive? Declaring a right to enslave and rape non-Muslim women is not offensive?  Declaring a right to enslave non-Muslim   children is is not offensive?
Sanctifying terrorism & genocide is not offensive?  Co-opting Jesus Christ as a genocidal warlord is not offensive?

"I’ve got Muslims who are fighting in Afghanistan in the uniform of the United States armed services. They’re out there putting their lives on the line for us.  And we’ve got to make sure that we are crystal-clear for our sakes and their sakes they are Americans and we honor their service.  And part of honoring their service is making sure that they understand that we don’t differentiate between them and us.  It’s just us. "

    Have you so soon forgotten what Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan did?  How can anyone be sure that those enlisted Muslims are loyal,  not just biding their time for the maximum  return on their investment?

Imam Rauf's Veilled Threat

In the fog of ideological & psychological warfare, with conflicting claims of  a face saving compromise which would relocate the Ground Zero Mosque  of triumph and save the Florida Qur'ans from a fiery fate,  we need to get back to basics and focus on the significant core issues.

    The Imam behind the Ground Zero Mosque of Triumph, Feisal Abdul Rauf,  issued a  thinly veiled threat in an interview with The Larry King Show. The Washington post included a video clip in their article., headlined: "Imam Rauf: National security hinges on Mosque debate".

    The Post placed this quote  above the video: "Our national security now hinges on how we negotiate this, how we speak about it."

This was a particularly difficult interview to transcribe because both the interviewer and interviewee spoke rapidly and  with soft voices.  The video buffers too slowly on my connection, my  eustachian tubes were not clearing, and my hearing aids are incompatible with my headset.  I had to use the telecoils, and my monitor is louder than my headset.  I did not get everything, but this should be close enough to convey the important meaning. 

..."But I also have a responsibility. If we move from that location the story will be that the radicals have taken over the discourse, the headline in the Islamic world will be that Islam is under attack. And I am less concerned by the radicals in America than I am concerned  by the radicals in the Muslim world. ... the danger from the radicals in the MW to our national security--to the nationals security of our troops- I have a niece who works in the Army in [inaudible] Iraq-- the concern for American citizens who live and work and travel overseas will increasingly be compromised if the radicals are strengthened.

If we do move it, it will strengthen the argument of the radicals to recruit  and their increasing aggression. The idea of [inaudible] is to create something like a Muslim Y. The YMCA was created one hundred and thirty years ago. to improve relationships between what was then called the American protestant religions by having young men and young women, of course they were separate at that time; YMCA/YWCA, common bond you know, by doing sports together and other programs together. [inaudible]
And that second street Y was an attempt by the Jewish community  to create a center where you'd create that kind of bonding.   We are now, today, where the Jewish community and the Catholic community was maybe seventy years ago, a century ago and this is our time; our turn to do that.

(What's on the table now?)
The biggest issue is the national security issue.
(How do you pull out without looking like you've lost?)

Without making it look both in this country and in the Muslim world.  You must remember that what we do is watched all over the world.  And we are very engaged with the Muslim world.  And our security is really number one, our national security, our personal security is extremely important. And this issue has become now a national security issue. And therefore in our conversations, in our decision making process, we have to weigh many many factors and that has been dominant among them.

(Is there a middle ground that has you pull out of the center and do something else? that's what it sounds like you are saying.)  We are discussing many things right now but, you know, we haven't found yet an option  that would work in a safe way.

(What are ... what you are considering?)

As I said,. we consider everything in life. but we have to be very cautious here because the voices of the radicals have ratcheted up and we must make sure that the moderates take over the conversation.

(Given what you know now, would you have built?)

As I mentioned it, this story is not new. People knew about it.  ...(Right, but given what you know now would you have said 'listen, lets not do it there because...'  because it sounds like  you are saying, in retrospect , you wouldn't have done it? )

Well,yes, if...if...(You would not have done it?)
If I knew this would happen, this would cause this kind of pain, I wouldn't have done it.  My life has been devoted to peace making,

(...There are so many people who say... if you are saying it was a mistake, then why can't you get out of it and not do it?)

because we have to now make sure that whatever we do actually results in greater peace, not in greater conflict.

(Why do you think this structure is causing all this controversy now? )

Well there is a certain amount of anti-Islamic sentiment in this country (what now?) and we have seen it in the attacks upon mosques in various parts of the country in the last several weeks. So it is clear that this issue is not just about our center which is an attempt to create peace between Muslims and  non-Muslims but this has aroused a certain anti-Islam sentiment which is unfortunate in this country--we need to look at it and have a discourse about it and make sure this does not dominate the discourse between us because Americans believe fundamentally  and in a very fundamental strong way about freedom of religion, about separation of governments and churches, in separation of church and state which means the power of the government should not be used to coerce people to believe in any religion but it should be used to defend and protect religious rights and freedoms.  So this is the conversation we need to have right now.

(Lets talk about money: one hundred million dollars is the price tag for this Islamic cultural center, where are you going to get the money?)

Well we have yet to raise a capital campaign...(You have no money for it yet?)

We haven't raised any money for it yet.  .

(Where will you get the money?)

We'll get the money from whatever sources we can, domestically especially, and be very transparent about how we raise the money. This has been something that we have committed ourselves to . (Meaning you will list whoever is giving you money?) Yes.  ( Will you turn down money from people who give money to say, HAMAS?) Absolutely. (No question about it; anyone who gives money to HAMAS can not give money to you ?) We will do whatever is absolutely correct and legal and safe thing   to do.

(Which means what exactly? Because that's an extra condition?)  You see, I'm the visionary behind it, I'm not the actual builder, I'm not the financial expert, I'm not  the legal expert on these things, but I have a vision here of  establishing something which I know, in my heart of hearts, will be a powerful instrument of peace.

(  Who would you not take money from, who would you say no to, who would you turn away?)

We would turn it from anybody who was deemed to be a danger to this process.  (People I think, here in New York and around the country would say ' that is sacred land, that is a special place for everyone in America-- is that a step toward peace?) As Clyde Haberman [sp?] and many many people have said, "look what exists in that neighborhood", look what exists around the corner.  ( Oh, I believe you, I've lived downtown, so I know the neighborhood very well. )

So lets be clear, calling this particular block sacred  ground is and what exists there... you know...(strip clubs and delis, I've been there a million times, but I think when people call it sacred ground, they're saying something terrible  happened on this spot and and we've...)

We've got to be fair you can't say a place that has strip joints is sacred ground. We've got to be just, we've got to speak the truth we've got to have justice for everybody,  we're a country of justice for all, not just for non-Muslims only or some groups and not for others This is what America is all about, Solidad. We've got to really mean what we say and say what our values  are truly about.

This isn't... the discourse has been hijacked by people who say "no".

(you've heard about this Pastor in Florida, Terry Jones,who is proposing burning Qur'ans on 9/11,  what do you think of that?)

I would plead with him to seriously consider what he is doing. (Why?)  Its going to feed to the radicals in the Muslim world.  Its dangerous, General Petraeus has said that. It is something that is not the right thing to do on that ground. ...
.
(Do you  think he has a right to do it?)

And more importantly, well, we have freedom in this country, freedom of speech, but with freedom comes responsibility.  It is a famous saying to shout fire in a crowded theatre, this is dangerous for our national security, and also the un-Christian thing to do.  Jesus Christ didn't teach us to do that, we Muslims have a ... we look to the example of our Prophet- to our Prophet's sunnah. Many Christians say, 'What would Jesus do"
Jesus taught us to turn the other cheek, Jesus taught us to love your enemy, we are not your enemies.  This is what Jesus taught us to do, and I would like to suggest that  you know--we all have to live  by the highest principles of our faith traditions  

• "If we move from that location the story will be that the radicals have taken over the discourse" 

I presume he means  us, the Americans who resist the erection of a victory Mosque on the scene of the  accursed abomination.

• "the headline in the Islamic world will be that Islam is under attack."

The finger of blame switches from those who are poking a gigantic middle finger in our eye to those of us who are vociferously resisting  the attack.

• "I am concerned  by the radicals in the Muslim world. "... 
• "the danger from the radicals in the MW to our national security"

    "Radical" Muslims are likely to throw stones and bombs at our troops, assault tourists and businessmen overseas, and terrorize us at home because we vocally resist the erection of  their symbol of triumph in the place where they murdered 2700 people nine years ago.   We are accused of provoking our tormentors by resisting them.   Does anyone else perceive the moral inversion performed in this case?

    Muslims are taught that any step taken to injure or anger us is imputed to their credit as a deed of righteousness, to be weighed against their sins on Judgment Day.  You'd learn that fun fact in 9:120, if you'd read that damn Qur'an instead of ignoring or burning it. They don't need any incentive from us to attack us. 

• "If we do move it, it will strengthen the argument of the radicals to recruit  and their increasing aggression."

    If they relocate the project, moderate Muslims will be radicalized and recruited by terrorists.  The difference between a moderate and a radical is that the latter is fully aware of Allah's imperatives and seeks to implement them.  Moderates are either ignorant or indolent,  those whom Muhammad called hypocrites whose Islam goes no deeper than their throats.  They profess but do not practice.   We have been told that  relocating the project from Ground Zero will cause more Muslims to seek to implement Allah's imperatives.  In that case, is there any real difference in the beliefs of radicals and moderates?

• "The YMCA was created one hundred and thirty years ago. to improve relationships between what was then called the American protestant religions"...
• "We are now, today, where the Jewish community and the Catholic community was maybe seventy years ago, a century ago and this is our time; our turn to do that."

    A Young Muslim's Christian Association?  Oh, right, a Young Muslim's Association.   The Y serves 45 million people in 120 countries. Guess which countries ain't served.  No Y in Arabia or North Africa, why is that?  But we need another Muslim (terrorist) recruiting station in New York. Yeah, right.

• "The biggest issue is the national security issue."

    How big is it?  How many more attacks, how much increase in the scale of those attacks? If that face saving compromise Pastor Terry Jones thought he had worked out was genuine, would that result in a national security problem?

• "You must remember that what we do is watched all over the world."
• this issue has become now a national security issue.

    The question was one of  relocating the project without the appearance of defeat. How about the reality?  It would be a strategic setback because any alternative location would not have the psychological effect of the Ground Zero location, it would contribute much less to the Muslim's sense of triumph.  The answer speaks volumes.  Rauf is concerned about defeat in the eyes of the Ummah.  But anything that deflates their egos should bring about some reduction in recruitment and enthusiasm for terrorism. That would make a positive contribution to peace and security.  Strategy is inverted along with morality.

• "we haven't found yet an option  that would work in a safe way"

    No options that would not increase the security risk?  We get more attacks unless the symbol of Islamic supremacy is erected on the site of the abomination?

• "we have to be very cautious here because the voices of the radicals have ratcheted up and we must make sure that the moderates take over the conversation"

    The emphasis is on "radicals" and "moderates". The moderate voice is quiescent because "moderates" are not zealots; they are not empowered and motivated to speak out and act; they are passive.  The "radicals" have the mission, motivation and machine guns; they are activated.

    Did anything escape your attention in that quote? Look again.  Who is Rauf concerned with?  Only Muslims; our perceptions, attitudes, feelings and interests don't count, they are not under consideration. He ain't interested in anyone but Muslims.

• "If I knew this would happen, this would cause this kind of pain, I wouldn't have done it.  My life has been devoted to peace making,"

    Rauf was not expecting a vigorous, vociferous reaction.  He was not expecting intensive and extensive news coverage.  Did he make a war?  No, he made a controversy, and that ain't exactly the polar opposite of "peace making".  Of course, Muslims make peace by subjugating disbelievers. Peace follows victory.

• "we have to now make sure that whatever we do actually results in greater peace, not in greater conflict."

    He can not admit defeat and back down because that would result in "greater conflict".  If we surrender, that results in peace; if he surrenders, that results in conflict.  Got a clue yet?

• "there is a certain amount of anti-Islamic sentiment in this country"
• " it is clear that this issue is not just about our center"
• "make sure this does not dominate the discourse between us because Americans believe fundamentally  and in a very fundamental strong way about freedom of religion, about separation of governments and churches, in separation of church and state which means the power of the government should not be used to coerce people to believe in any religion but it should be used to defend and protect religious rights and freedoms."

    Nineteen Muslims hijacked four airliners and flew three of them into office buildings.  Their act was motivated by the preaching and example of Muhammad bin Abdullah, the founder of Islam.  Their act was celebrated by Muslims all over the world.  What sort of fool expects us to have a neutral or pro-Islamic sentiment after that?   A cockpit voice recorder was recovered, exposing  exclamations of "Allahu akhbar" as the flight crew was murdered.   People wondered why, and research was done; books and movies were created which expose the doctrines and practices of Islam.  Some of us looked up the Barbary Wars, and what we discovered in  the historical recored confirmed what we learned  from your texts and outraged us.

    How is it possible to have a discourse not dominated by the fact that your demon demands that you conquer and subjugate us?   Freedom of religion means that we can choose any religion or none at all. Islam demands that it have a monopoly, that only Allah be worshiped.  The two are not compatible, they are polar opposites.

    Separation of Church and state means that the two institutions are independent, they do not interfere in each other's affairs. Islam demands that all law be Allah's law, Shari'ah, not man made legislation.  That is the polar opposite of separation of church and state.   Freedom of religion and separation of church and state do not serve as your license to wage war on us or dominate us by out breeding us, subversion & sedition.

• ( Will you turn down money from people who give money to say, HAMAS?) "Absolutely". (No question about it; anyone who gives money to HAMAS can not give money to you ?) "We will do whatever is absolutely correct and legal and safe thing   to do."
• "We would turn it from anybody who was deemed to be a danger to this process."

    Wear your black dot garden gloves to keep a grip on this snake. Why is HAMAS an issue?  Rauf will not acknowledge the fact that it is a terrorist organization.  Neither would he acknowledge the fact, if asked, that there is no difference between HAMAS  and Islam.

    Giving money to HAMAS is illegal. Taking money from HAMAS donors is not illegal.  Their willingness to donate to you  as well as  to HAMAS tells us  who & what you are. The fact that you want to disassociate yourself from them provides the same information.  But we already knew that you are Muslims.  What constitutes a "danger to this process" ?  The implication is that you would reject money from anyone whose reputation or associations would impair your false image of peaceful  moderation.

• "We've got to be fair you can't say a place that has strip joints is sacred ground."
  

    What makes any ground sacred?  What desecrates it?  If the flesh, bone & blood of your family and associates is finely divided and splattered over several city blocks by an aircraft  impact   and the subsequent collapse of  the impacted building,  are that place, those scattered remains and their memories any less sacred  to you than they would be in a consecrated cemetery  in your church yard?  In fact, there was a church on that site.  Is the site desecrated by the presence of strip joints and other business establishments which pre-existed the accursed abomination?

    If your loved one and  colleagues were murdered by assassins motivated by the damnable doctrines of an accursed war cult, what is the effect on your psyche of the erection, on the site where the ash and smoke of your loved one settled, of a shrine where the war cult's devotees will remind their  demon seventeen times every day of how your loved one and you have "earned" his wrath & "gone astray"; a place where they will curse us and supplicate their demon for "victory over the disbelieving folk"?  Does that or does that not impair the sanctity of the site more than a strip club around the corner?  

• "I would plead with him to seriously consider what he is doing. (Why?)  Its going to feed to the radicals in the Muslim world.  Its dangerous, General Petraeus has said that. It is something that is not the right thing to do on that ground. ..."

    Burning a Qir'an as a symbol of objection to the damnable doctrines enshrined therein and the accursed actions inspired thereby and to the erection of a  shrine to them  in a place where those  damnable doctrines and accursed actions resulted in more than 2000 deaths  "feeds radicals"  but burning the American flag, the symbol of liberty and justice for all, chanting "death to America" ,  and bearing signs reading "Islam will dominate the world" and "freedom go to Hell" along with "behead those who Insult Islam"  are innocent acts of no import or impact whatsoever, though they are carried out by thousands where as Terry Jones has fifty in his congregation.  Proportionality, anyone?  Can you perceive moral inversion??

• 'What would Jesus do" 

    He lectures us  by Jesus?  Unholy sacrilege!!! The Islamic version of Jesus is Allah's slave, not God's son, was not crucified, neither was he killed nor resurrected.  And he will return to lead the Muslims in  battle against us, the final and ultimate genocide.  He will rule the world by the Qur'an.   The arrogance of Muslims knows no bounds.  If you have any doubt about the veracity of this paragraph, read this blog post: The Defamation of Jesus Christ.

Blogburst: Alan Keyes against the Flight 93 memorial

Alec Rawls sent out another blogburst, updating the protest planned for Saturday September 11, 2010. Unfortunately I got behind in reading my email and neglected it.

    As previously promised, Alec included an image of  his newspaper advertisement and a link to the pdf file which you can print and mount on  poster board or in  a window.

    Please do whatever you can to  stop the erection of a symbol of Islamic triumphalism at the crash site!

---

Conservative hero Alan Keyes is asking whether there is a pattern of submission surrounding the nation's 9/11 sites. Apparently he has seen our video expose of Islamic and terrorist memorializing features in the crescent memorial to Flight 93 (now called a broken circle). Like any straight-thinker, he doesn't like what he sees. The Flight 93 crash site is no place for a giant Islamic-shaped crescent, no matter what it is called. On this point, Keyes cites Colorado Representative Tom Tancredo's 2005 objection to the newly unveiled Crescent of Embrace design:

Back in 2005, then-Rep. Tom Tancredo was reported to have sent a letter to the National Park Service "asking the Interior Department to reconsider the crescent-shaped design of the memorial to those aboard a plane hijacked on Sept. 11, 2001, because some may think it honors the terrorists." Tancredo quite sensibly argues that "regardless of whether 'the invocation of a Muslim Symbol' was intentional, 'it seems that such a symbol is unsuitable for paying appropriate tribute to the heroes of Flight 93 or the ensuing American struggle against radical Islam.'"

Keyes notes our claim that the design is still replete with terrorist memorializing features and he seems to find it credible. Why shouldn't he? The damning features are all right there in architect Paul Murdoch's design drawings. Thank you Doctor Keyes! "It’s not just embarrassing. It is a dangerous willful blindness, spurning the woken vigilance of Flight 93." That's the last line of the full-page advertisement that Tom Burnett Senior and Alec Rawls will be running in the Somerset Daily American this Friday and Saturday (when the two first ladies will be in town for the 9/11 anniversary): Click for legible image. Full ad-copy PDF here (large file warning). We are hoping that visitors will hold onto our ad, maybe even tape it to their car windows, and most especially, show it to any press people they come across. Hey, if the Park Service can use 9/11 to plant the world's largest mosque on the Flight 93 crash site, we can use 9/11 to object. To join our blogburst against the crescent mosque, just send your blog's url.

Qur'an: Read it before Burning it

General Petraeus is quoted by the Associated Press (on Yahoo! news) as saying that Qur'an burning would inflame passions.

"Images of the burning of a Quran would undoubtedly be used by extremists in Afghanistan — and around the world — to inflame public opinion and incite violence,"

    The Secretary General of Nato is quoted in a similar vein.

"would be in a strong contradiction with the all the values we stand for and fight for."

    Did Christians riot, destroy property and kill people when a photograph was published as "art" showing a crucifix immersed in urine?  Did they riot when elephant dung was used in ersatz  iconography?  But Muslims, whipped to a frenzy by rabid clerics in Juma Salat  riot on the basis of unfounded rumors as well as such egregious offenses as the Motoons & Fitna.

    If rabid Muslims are going to harm our troops because a few Qur'ans are burned,  they will also use  blog posts, books, videos and articles exposing the intrinsic evil of Islam as a pretexts for outrageous acts of violence.  If we follow the General's illogic, we must forbid all criticism of Islam, effectively annulling the First Amendment.

    CNN quotes General Petraeus as saying that the Qur'an burning could "endanger" our troops and the mission.  CNN quotes a statement from our Embassy in Kabul in which the Embassy condemns the Qur'an burning. in terms such as "acts of disrespect against the religion of Islam", "deliberate attempts to offend members of religious or ethnic groups"  and "offensive messages, which are contrary to U.S. government policy ".

    Msnbc  reports on the remarks of Attorney General Eric Holder and other critics.  They quote Holder as calling the burning "idiotic and dangerous" . They quote a group of religious leaders as referring to "anti-Muslim frenzy"  and  "disrespect for a sacred text".

"To attack any religion in the United States is to do violence to the religious freedom of all Americans," 

    State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley is quoted  in a fulminating denunciation

"We think that these are provocative acts, they are disrespectful, they are intolerant, they are divisive,"

Crowley called the burning "inconsistent with our American values" and "un-American".

    Our servicemen are in harm's way in Afghanistan, viewed by the locals as "occupiers" to be tormented, killed and driven away. When  Dar ul-Islam is invaded, jihad to repel the invaders is fard ayn, an individually binding religious obligation upon all able bodied male Muslims. I direct the attention of doubters and dissenters to Reliance of the Traveller, Book o9.1. They do not need any additional provocation.

    Dove World calls Islam Satanic.  It intends to protest Islam's attacks on us by burning Qur'ans. Is that  an attack on a religion?  Is Islam a religion?  Muslims do use that word, but the principal term used to describe Islam is Deen: way of life.  What is that way of life?  What is its economic base, is it agriculture? Is it construction? Is it manufacturing? Is it trade and commerce?  One saying  attributed to Muhammad answers these questions for us. Read it carefully; I added emphasis to  make critical points clear to you.

Sunan Abu Dawud Book 23, Number 3455:

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar:
I heard the Apostle of Allah, (peace_be_upon_him) say: When you enter into the inah transaction, hold the tails of oxen, are pleased with agriculture, and give up conducting jihad (struggle in the way of Allah). Allah will make disgrace prevail over you, and will not withdraw it until you return to your original religion.

    Muhammad told the Muslims that if they engage in trade & agriculture to the exclusion of jihad Allah will curse them until they return to "your original religion". What did they give up? What must they return to? Jihad.  What is jihad?  Is jihad an-nafs, the struggle against ego and temptation an alternative to agriculture? How  would it produce food or income with which to purchase food?   What is jihad, and how does it rival  agriculture as an economic activity?

    Fortunately for us, Islamic law includes a clear and unambiguous definition of jihad. For clarity and ease of exploration, I have added emphasis and links to external references.

o9.0: Jihad

(O: Jihad means to war against non-Muslims, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada signifying warfare to establish the religion. And it is the lesser jihad. As for the greater jihad, it is spiritual warfare against the lower self (nafs), which is why the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said as he was returning from jihad.

``We have returned from the lesser jihad to the greater jihad.''

The scriptural basis for jihad, prior to scholarly consensus (def: b7) is such Koranic verses as:

-1- ``Fighting is prescribed for you'' (Koran 2:216);

-2- ``Slay them wherever you find them'' (Koran 4:89);

-3- ``Fight the idolators utterly'' (Koran 9:36);

and such hadiths as the one related by Bukhari and Muslim that the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said:

``I have been commanded to fight people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and perform the prayer, and pay zakat. If they say it, they have saved their blood and possessions from me, except for the rights of Islam over them. And their final reckoning is with Allah'';

and the hadith reported by Muslim,

``To go forth in the morning or evening to fight in the path of Allah is better than the whole world and everything in it.''Details concerning jihad are found in the accounts of the military expeditions of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace), including his own martial forays and those on which he dispatched others. The former consist of the ones he personally attended, some twenty-seven (others say twenty-nine) of them. He fought in eight of them, and killed only one person with his noble hand, Ubayy ibn Khalaf, at the battle of Uhud. On the latter expeditions he sent others to fight, himself remaining at Medina, and these were forty-seven in number.)

    Jihad means "to war on non-Muslims".  How does it produce income?  The Qur'an has the answer to this question, distributed over several surahs. [Emphasis added for clarity.]

8:1. They ask you (O Muhammad) about the spoils of war. Say: "The spoils are for Allâh and the Messenger." So fear Allâh and adjust all matters of difference among you, and obey Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad), if you are believers.

8:41. And know that whatever of war-booty that you may gain, verily one-fifth (1/5th) of it is assigned to Allâh, and to the Messenger, and to the near relatives [of the Messenger (Muhammad)], (and also) the orphans, Al-Masâkin (the poor) and the wayfarer, if you have believed in Allâh and in that which We sent down to Our slave (Muhammad) on the Day of criterion (between right and wrong), the Day when the two forces met (the battle of Badr) - And Allâh is Able to do all things.

    Al-Anfal is variously translated as "The Spoils", "War Booty" or "The Windfalls". If Islam is a "religion of peace", why does its scripture tell us that Moe gets the loot, specifically the top 20%. That top 20% is called Khums.  In Bukhari's collection of authentic hadith, the Book of Khumus describes the division of the spoils.    Of course, that must be a rare and occasional  necessity, because Islam is a "religion of peace".  So why does that book contain 88 ahadith?

    In Surah Al Fath, we learn that Allah has promised the Muslims "rich spoils" that they will capture.

48:19. And abundant spoils that they will capture. And Allâh is Ever All-Mighty, All-Wise.

48:20. Allâh has promised you abundant spoils that you will capture, and He has hastened for you this, and He has restrained the hands of men from you, that it may be a sign for the believers, and that He may guide you to a Straight Path.

48:21. And other (victories and much booty there are, He promises you) which are not yet within your power, indeed Allâh compasses them, And Allâh is Ever Able to do all things.

    Did Allah deliver on his promise of "abundant spoils"?

33:26. And those of the people of the Scripture who backed them (the disbelievers) Allâh brought them down from their forts and cast terror into their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you made captives.

33:27. And He caused you to inherit their lands, and their houses, and their riches, and a land which you had not trodden (before). And Allâh is Able to do all things.

    In another ayeh, Allah reveals Moe's motivation: "the good of this world".  What does that mean?

8:67. It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war (and free them with ransom) until he had made a great slaughter (among his enemies) in the land. You desire the good of this world (i.e. the money of ransom for freeing the captives), but Allâh desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allâh is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

    The translators included a parenthetical expression taken from tafsir. That expression tells us what Moe wanted: ransom money.  The mission of Islam is mercenary, neither beneficent, spiritual nor anodyne.  "Religion of peace"?  Waging war, making a great slaughter is one of the duties of a Prophet.  Got a clue yet?

    The hadit have more clues for the clueless.

Sahih Muslim Book 019, Number 4327:
The spoils of war were not made lawful for any people before us, This is because Allah saw our weakness and humility and made them lawful for us.

    Taking spoils was taboo among the Arabs. Allah gave Moe special dispensation because he saw Moe's weakness and humility.  Lets take a good, close look at that humility. Khan bowdlerized this hadith when he translated Bukhari. Aisha Bewley did not.

Bukhari  Ch 61 # 2756: ...It is mentioned from Ibn 'Umar from the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, "My provision has been placed under the shadow of my spear, and abasement and humility have been placed on the one who disobeys my command.

    How did Moe get his provision? What happened to anyone who disobeyed his command?  So Allah saw his weakness and humility..... Humility?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:
 Narrated Abu Huraira:

    Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand." Abu Huraira added: Allah's Apostle has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those treasures (i.e. the Prophet did not benefit by them).

    How was Moe made victorious?  Who brought him the keys to the treasures of the world?  What of those treasures?

 Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 267:
    Narrated Abu Huraira:
    The Prophet said, "Khosrau will be ruined, and there will be no Khosrau after him, and Caesar will surely be ruined and there will be no Caesar after him, and you will spend their treasures in Allah's Cause." He called, "War is deceit'.  

    How about those treasures, did they inure to Moe's benefit?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 3, Book 37, Number 495:

    Narrated Abu Huraira:

    Whenever a dead man in debt was brought to Allah's Apostle he would ask, "Has he left anything to repay his debt?" If he was informed that he had left something to repay his debts, he would offer his funeral prayer, otherwise he would tell the Muslims to offer their friend's funeral prayer. When Allah made the Prophet wealthy through conquests, he said, "I am more rightful than other believers to be the guardian of the believers, so if a Muslim dies while in debt, I am responsible for the repayment of his debt, and whoever leaves wealth (after his death) it will belong to his heirs. "

How did Allah make Moe wealthy?

    I have presented proof of the centrality of Jihad in Islam, that it is a predatory way of life, predation upon the non-Islamic human race, Dar ul-Harb, the land of war.  Why is it the land of war?  Because it is not yet under Islam's domination.

    The entire world must be brought under Islamic domination because Allah's word must be made superior.

9:33. It is He Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad ) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islâm), to make it superior over all religions even though the Mushrikûn (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh) hate (it).

48:28. He it is Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad ) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islâm), that He may make it (Islâm) superior over all religions. And All-Sufficient is Allâh as a Witness.

61:9. He it is Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad ) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islâmic Monotheism) to make it victorious over all (other) religions even though the Mushrikûn (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh and in His Messenger Muhammed ) hate (it).

    Two ayat declare that Islam must be made superior, one declares that it must be made victorious.  How would that happen?  The  context has a clue for you.

61:10. O You who believe! Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment.

61:11.  That you believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad ), and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with your wealth and your lives, that will be better for you, if you but know!

61:12. (If you do so) He will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant dwelling in Gardens of 'Adn ­ Eternity ['Adn (Edn) Paradise], that is indeed the great success.

    "Strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh"; whatever could that mean?  How would that make Islam victorious & dominant?

Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 65:

Narrated Abu Musa: A man came to the Prophet and asked, "A man fights for war booty; another fights for fame and a third fights for showing off; which of them fights in Allah's Cause?" The Prophet said, "He who fights that Allah's Word (i.e. Islam) should be superior, fights in Allah's Cause."

13:41. See they not that We gradually reduce the land (of disbelievers, by giving it to the believers, in war victories) from its outlying borders. And Allâh judges, there is none to put back His Judgement and He is Swift at reckoning.   

   
    Muslims fight in Allah's cause, to make Islam dominant. Allah gives them the  disbeliever's land in war victories.  Got a clue yet?

    Two ayat in Surah Al-Anfal tell us most of what we need to know about Islam.

8:38. Say to those who have disbelieved, if they cease (from disbelief) their past will be forgiven. But if they return (thereto), then the examples of those (punished) before them have already preceded (as a warning).

8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allâh) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allâh Alone [in the whole of the world ]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allâh), then certainly, Allâh is All-Seer of what they do.

    Who: disbelievers.  What? Fight them until resistance ceases and only Allah is worshiped in the whole world.  Got a clue yet?  Surah At-Taubah has another clue for  the clueless.

9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

    But Islam is a "great religion of peace".   Surely those conquest imperatives must be  metaphorical, allegorical or anachronistic. Yeah, right. I already showed you one of the confirming ahadith, in that quote from Reliance. "commanded to fight the people until"... . That same section told you that jihad is warfare against disbelievers.  But you did not get a clue.  Shari'ah has another clue for you.  Those conquest imperatives are codified into Islamic law and one of them specifies its scriptural basis.
   

o9.8: The Objectives of Jihad

The caliph (o25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: o11.4) -which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself-while remaining in their ancestral religions) (O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,

"Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden-who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book-until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled" (Koran 9.29),

the time and place for which is before the final descent of Jesus (upon whom be peace).  After his final coming, nothing but Islam will be accepted from them, for taking the poll tax is only effective until Jesus' descent (upon him and our Prophet be peace), which is the divinely revealed law of Muhammad. The coming of Jesus does not entail a separate divinely revealed law, for he will rule by the law of Muhammad. As for the Prophet's saying (Allah bless him and give him peace),

"I am the last, there will be no prophet after me,"

this does not contradict the final coming of Jesus (upon whom be peace), since he will not rule according to the Evangel, but as a follower of our Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) ).

    The caliph makes war on  "people of the scripture"  until they are subjugated and  make annual extortion payments.  The scriptural basis is At-Taubah 29.
Allah said "fight them" ; Moe said " I am commanded to fight" .  What did Moe do?  What did his rightly guided caliphs do?  How did Islam build an empire that stretched from the border of China to the border of France?

    When America won its war of revolution, it no longer had the protection of the British fleet. Her shipping was sacked by the Barbary Pirates. The young nation was nearly bankrupted by paying tribute.  Adams & Jefferson asked by what right they attacked us.  The answer has another clue for you.

The ambassador answered us that [the right] was founded on the Laws of the Prophet (Mohammed), that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have answered their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman (or Muslim) who should be slain in battle was sure to go to heaven. [Wikepedia]

    Examine the crucial elements.

• Laws of the Prophet
• written in their Koran
• who should not have answered their authority were sinners,
• right and duty to make war upon them
• make slaves of all they could take as prisoners
• every Mussulman (or Muslim) who should be slain in battle was sure to go to heaven

    Can you connect the dots?  If not, you are a certified LibTard, like Holder, Clinton & Obama.  The ambassador's obnoxious statement is strikingly similar to a statement made  to a Persian general on a battlefield. This quote comes from Sahih Bukhari 4.53.386

Our Prophet, the Messenger of our Lord, has ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah Alone or give Jizya (i.e. tribute); and our Prophet has informed us that our Lord says:-- "Whoever amongst us is killed (i.e. martyred), shall go to Paradise to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever amongst us remain alive, shall become your master."

Examine the crucial elements.

• ordered us to fight you
• until you worship Allah alone
• or give jizya
• martyrs go to Paradise
• survivors enslave you

    Are you intelligent enough to connect the dots or are you a LibTard, impervious to all evidence?  Why do Muslims attack us; are they grievance driven or doctrine driven?  Is Islam a "religion of peace" ? Has it been "perverted",  "twisted" or "hijacked"?

    Is the Qur'an a holy book, the sacred word of Allah or was it contrived by a venal con man, woven of plagiarized pseudepigrapha  and situational scripture?   You won't find the answer from the Qur'an alone, you need  hadith to complete the puzzle. Moe, like modern cult leaders, had groupies. Moe wanted to accept their sexual advances. Allah accommodated his wishes.

33:50. O Prophet (Muhammad )! Verily, We have made lawful to you your wives, to whom you have paid their Mahr (bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage), and those (captives or slaves) whom your right hand possesses - whom Allâh has given to you, and the daughters of your 'Amm (paternal uncles) and the daughters of your 'Ammah (paternal aunts) and the daughters of your Khâl (maternal uncles) and the daughters of your Khâlah (maternal aunts) who migrated (from Makkah) with you, and a believing woman if she offers herself to the Prophet, and the Prophet wishes to marry her; a privilege for you only, not for the (rest of) the believers. Indeed We know what We have enjoined upon them about their wives and those (captives or slaves) whom their right hands possess, - in order that there should be no difficulty on you. And Allâh is Ever Oft­Forgiving, Most Merciful.

    Moe lusted after Zainab, whose father rejected him.  Moe fixed up his adopted son with her, later taking advantage of a convenient divorce to snatch her.

33:37. And (remember) when you said to him (Zaid bin Hârithah; the freed­slave of the Prophet ) on whom Allâh has bestowed Grace (by guiding him to Islâm) and you (O Muhammad  too) have done favour (by manumitting him) "Keep your wife to yourself, and fear Allâh." But you did hide in yourself (i.e. what Allâh has already made known to you that He will give her to you in marriage) that which Allâh will make manifest, you did fear the people (i.e., Muhammad  married the divorced wife of his manumitted slave) whereas Allâh had a better right that you should fear Him. So when Zaid had accomplished his desire from her (i.e. divorced her), We gave her to you in marriage, so that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the believers in respect of (the marriage of) the wives of their adopted sons when the latter have no desire to keep them (i.e. they have divorced them). And Allâh's Command must be fulfilled.

33:38. There is no blame on the Prophet () in that which Allâh has made legal for him.That has been Allâh's Way with those who have passed away of (the Prophets of) old. And the Command of Allâh is a decree determined.

Sahih Muslim Book 008, Number 3330:

Anas (Allah be pleased with him) reported: When the 'Iddah of Zainab was over, Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said to Zaid to make a mention to her about him. Zaid went on until he came to her and she was fermenting her flour. He (Zaid) said: As I saw her I felt in my heart an idea of her greatness so much so that I could not see towards her (simply for the fact) that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) had made a mention of her. So I turned my back towards her. and I turned upon my heels, and said: Zainab, Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) has sent (me) with a message to you. She said: I do not do anything until I solicit the will of my Lord. So she stood at her place of worship and the (verse of) the Qur'an (pertaining to her marriage) were revealed, and Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) came to her without permission. He (the narrator) said: I saw that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) served us bread and meat until it was broad day light and the people went away, but some persons who were busy in con- versation stayed on in the house after the meal. Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) also went out and I also followed him, and he began to visit the apartments of his wives greeting them (with the words): As-Salamu 'alaikum, and they would say: Allah's Messenger, how did you find your family (hadrat Zainab)? He (the narrator) stated: I do not know whether I had informed him that the people had gone out or he (the Holy Prophet) informed me (about that). He moved on until he entered the apartment, and I also went and wanted to enter (the apartment) along with him, but he threw a curtain between me and him, as (the verfes pertaining to seclusion) had been revealed, and people were instructed in what they had been instructed. Ibn Rafii had made this addition in his narration:" O you who believe, enter not the houses of the Prophet unless permission is given to you for a meal, not waiting for its cooking being finished..." to the words"... Allah forbears not from the truth."

   Moe's favorite, his child bride was onto him. This hadith lets the cat out of the bag

Sahih Bukhari Volume 6, Book 60, Number 311:

Narrated Aisha:

I used to look down upon those ladies who had given themselves to Allah's Apostle and I used to say, "Can a lady give herself (to a man)?" But when Allah revealed: "You (O Muhammad) can postpone (the turn of) whom you will of them (your wives), and you may receive any of them whom you will; and there is no blame on you if you invite one whose turn you have set aside (temporarily).' (33.51) I said (to the Prophet), "I feel that your Lord hastens in fulfilling your wishes and desires."

Now we know: the Qur'an ain't sacred, it is situational scripture, a fraud.  Allah is no god, it is Moe's dummy.

    If burning the Qur'an is an attack on Islam, it is a counter attack, subsequent to Islamic attacks upon us.  Did you know that Islam denies the divinity, crucifixion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ?  Did you know that Islam curses Jews & Christians, that it calls us the worst of living creatures?  Did you know that Allah turned some Jews into apes and swine?  Why not?  Because you have not read  the Qur'an.  

    I admit that the International Burn a Quran Day may irritate Muslims. But it serves a larger purpose: it gives me and others a good excuse to  expose the fatal facts of Islam to a curious public.  The constant drumbeat of news coverage is raising interest and curiosity.  A few more people will read this blog post. A few more will click the links and explore Islam's canon of scripture, tradition and jurisprudence than otherwise would.  And I view that as a good thing.

    So read the Qur'an  already. Then piss on it, let it dry and  burn it.
