News The MSM Will Not Report

WASHINGTON - Like many Soldiers deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan, Soldiers from the Oregon National Guard's 2nd Battalion, 162nd Infantry brought their personal cameras to Iraq during their deployment in 2004. They snapped photos of each other firing weapons, shot video of explosives they detonated and logged plenty of footage of their own commentaries intermixed with Soldier humor.

AL ASAD AIR BASE, Iraq (AFPN) - Airmen are improving the lives and operating conditions of Marines by constructing more than $9.8 million in aircraft shelters, taxiways and temporary shelters at Al Asad Air Base.

AL TAQADDUM, Iraq - The AN/TSQ-120B is a temporary air traffic control tower used by Marines in expeditionary operations until a more sturdy structure can be built. Although designed for just 90 days of continual use, the one at Al Taqaddum Air Base has seen more than its share of sorties since it was raised during the early stages of Operation Iraqi Freedom.

On Iran, NIE, Jerks and Retarded Politicians

~Snooper~

As the GREAT news coming out of the efforts of our Troops in the War In Iraq comes flowing in showing that the Leftinistra have ALWAYS been on the wrong side of this issue...as well as a plethora of others...they now find the need to whine, cry, foam at the mouth and make fools of themselves on a different issue; thus distracting their inability to get anything done and/or lead in any capacity. The more they can distract from their ineptness on any issue to get anything right on any issue, they deflect their ignorance onto something and/or someone else. Such is not going to go unanswered or at least challenged.

Within the last week or so, A known Syrian Al Qaida leader has been removed from any influence in this life on a permanent basis, along with the slog's media pool. The violence levels have dropped to the levels of January 2006 with another 40 Al Qaida terrorists meeting the same fate as the Syrian fool. We have also witnessed an acknowledgment from some "prominent" terrorist scum that they were wrong and have lost Iraq to the United States. Evidence of Iranian 'meddling" in Iraq has come forth and the retarded politicians look the other way...it doesn't mesh with their incessant stupidity...or, does it? We have also seen terrorists moving further north in Iraq due to the overwhelming forces arrayed against them. Those of us that have been paying attention know now what we knew "then" that we were going to win this war and we are in fact winning this war because the Lame Stream Media prints and airs less and less and less stories about the War In Iraq except when the news is so obvious, they are forced to print an actual by God Good News piece.

With overwhelming evidence that Iranian weaponry was and is being utilized in the war effort in Iraq, I find it ironically and unfathomably odd that people of any walk of life would trust anything the Iranian government would say in regards to nuclear weapons or nuclear energy. Equally absurd as that sentiment is, I find disingenuous hindsight rhetoric completely unacceptable. There is a part of the NIE, among many, that points to the "we really don't know anything" verbiage masked by theoretical intelligence.

[...] "We judge with high confidence that in fall 2003, Tehran halted its nuclear weapons program," said the NIE text, reflecting a strong consensus among the nation's 16 intelligence agencies. "Tehran's decision to halt its nuclear weapons program suggests it is less determined to develop nuclear weapons than we have been judging since 2005." [...]

Having worked in the field relying on some desk weeny with my life, I find that little segment appallingly retarded...I have seen crap like that before and when I and others read such drivel, we discounted it whole heartedly and went about our mission as if the idiot that wrote such nonsense was a moron and could not be trusted.

To a "Field Tech", "High Confidence" equates to "We really don't know for sure". To a Field Tech, the very term "suggest" sends chills up and down the spine. Let me rewrite that phrase above so you can see for yourselves how a Field Tech would consider the message:

[...] "We really cannot say for sure so take this with a grain of salt as follows: Iran may or may not have stopped its uranium enrichment process back in 2003 but we are pretty hopeful that they have. It is your job to take the necessary precautions and actions to confirm what we think we are sure about, maybe. All of us back here are confident that we are in agreement that we really don't know much. If our beliefs can be confirmed, it might suggest that Iran did stop their weapons program to a degree that we hoped that they did. End of message. Oh. Wait. The above is our concensus and we bet your lives on that data. Good luck and Happy Hunting." [...]

This whole NIE/Iran thing pisses this DAV off to a degree that I feel like going to DC and spit on every desk weeny that put this drivel out and I also want to spit on every moron that actually thinks that Iran has "given up" on nukes. Friggin' morons. If they don't know for a surety, why bother publishing anything at all except, "Hey folks. We don't know squat. Carry on."

I question the motive(s) of those involved. And, yes, I do hav experience in the matter at hand.

We have Libtards and morons winking and wiggling their scrawny fingers in an "I told you so fashion" as if they know something and I would venture a guess they have never served in any capacity anywhere except for servitude to a dolt.

When Hans Blix questions the veracity of the NIE, the libtards should really STFU and take note. But, it is a cherished Bash Bush moment so, they would "Rather" prove their genuine ignorance and stupidity all for a shot at the object of hate via BDS.

Israel ain't buying into this crap and neither am I. Only morons will give a victory to a madman fruit loop like the Iranian moppet.

We reported on this the other day and as predicted, the Leftinistra Moonbats of the anti-Americanist Fruit Loop Brigades are having to change soiled panties seemingly on the hour.

Bush-Bashing Is Fun

But here's what you missed amid the Iranapalooza excitement. Some of the elusive and much sought-after political progress in Iraq: (read the rest...it won't disappoint)

The above is from Jules Crittenden. The below is from the disheartened and so mentally deficient losers of the left:

It has been a trying few days, as our animus to cry angrily and fearfully for vengeance against an unending succession of exaggerated foreign threats has been dampened by disappointing news regarding the supposed nonexistence of the Iranian nuclear threat, according to certain intelligence sources against whom our resentment is now rising. (read the rest and bring your tissues...I laughed so hard I thought I was going to snot myself)

The pathetic loons of Trolldom and Doom and Gloom have been beaten...again...by the dumbest man on the face of the Earth...GWB. I wonder what that tells "them".

A KOSmonoff Has Troubles With Facts

~Snooper~

What is it with the vast majority of KOSmonoffs these days? Can they not feel the wind directions change? Can they not tell that they are irrelevant and insignificant? Whereas it might be true, I have no way of knowing, that the KOSmonoff site gets 487,391 hits a day, that is pretty much irrelevant. Many of "us" go there to see how loony they are and get quite a grand guffaw now and then. We DO link back and many of our readers know to fact check BEFORE they write elsewhere...something of an alien concept to a KOSmonoff or any other moonbat. They really are lost, don't you know...

This particular KOSmonoff has the consistent wrongness and blind ignorance of facts, no matter which OR whose book It reads. I suspect that at one time, this poor child once lauded Murtha as a hero of the moonbats seeing that he also said that the surge was not working. Now that Murtha has stated otherwise, I guess the poor child's zero is Reid again. You know, the fool that says the Surge isn't working whereas everyone of at least half of a brain knows otherwise.

Hell, even OBL admitted that factoid.

Such is life in the world of the average anti-Americanists that dwell in the Land of Oz.

Oh. Lest our readers miss this one...go check out the socialist KOSmonoff poet rail against that Evil Capitalism thing. That will add to their site meter count for sure. Hey! KOSmonoffs...you are welcome for the traffic...no need to thank us...just send cash.

Even Pakistan has grown sick and tired of these anti-Americanist groups and pro-terrorist groups. They deport them. Perhaps we should do the same?

Blue Handed

~Snooper~

Every time I think nothing will surprise me anymore, the Leftinistra, such as Matthew Yglesias, manages to take my breath away all over again. Consider the staggering dishonesty with which the Leftinistra, such as Lefty Matty, try to mislead the American people about their theoretical knowledge of the alleged Iranian nuclear program and the contents of the recent NIE as opposed to the one back in '05. If, the Leftinistra were so intelligent, why then did they not know anything then? And, what is it with their reflective hindsight? Is hindsight actually a good way to show ones stupidity? This is the Leftinistra Matty sometime or another:

It's not as if Cheney read the NIE and decided he had some reason to believe it was incorrect. Rather, he read it, decided he'd better not contradict it, but also decided that bottom line conclusions about how Iran had halted its nuclear weapons program were inconvenient, and thus decided to talk around that minor point and try to get the American people confused about what's happening. Stunningly cynical and yes I'm resolving once again to never be stunned.

I find it wondrously stupid how ignorant these retarded Leftinistra are and how arrogantly they vomit and spew their obvious BDS and feigned intelligence. It's not like Yglesias is intelligent or not, does it? If he were, he wouldn't be trying to mask his stupidity under the guise of Dumb. Would he? The hindsight of the Yglesias:

Indeed, the striking thing about this is the extent to which looking back at Cheney's statement he's tried very carefully to avoid directly contradicting the NIE while crafting phrases that are clearly designed to cause the listener to draw the precise wrong conclusion.

It is truly obvious how much the Leftinistra let their emotions run their ignorance. Sometimes I am grossly concerned over the mental health of the more prominent Leftinistra. One would think that adults would know better than to act as they do.

I also find it curiously funny...as in chuckle-chuckle-snort-snort...how the loony BDS libs will plunge to their deaths upon the rocks of illusion and despair at the outside chance that they just might have something on the targets of their deeply rooted hatred. The Leftinistra, infected with the lethality of BDS will cherry pick themselves into a frothing and venomous tizzy just to leave themselves wide open for more questions and reason.

One of these days, the poor slogs will be able to, after they grow up, differentiate between the following: "High Confidence", "Moderate Confidence" and "Low Confidence". From my perspective, I have High Confidence that their BDS diatribes leaves a box of turtle turds with more collective intelligence than the likes of 100 Matty Yglesiasswipe.

Apparently, Matty and his clan of Merry Tighty Whities never read the entire report nor have they fact checked anything. The Leftinistra fit to a "T" the piece we posted earlier about the Pathology of A Defeatist. Kind of saddens me in a way.

The Pathology of A Defeatist

~Snooper~

We have all heard of the Pathology of Liberalism and we have also heard that Liberalism is a Mental Disorder. However, I haven't read what the Pathology of a Defeatist is...until now. First, however, we must define what "defeatism" "IS". Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary: acceptance of or resignation to defeat. A defeatist, then, is one which actively prescribes to the "all is lost" and the Trekkish "resistance is futile" mantra. The last I was taught, learned and came to believe, no one likes a loser and, for the most part, no one of substance and character will accept defeat, especially when there is even an outside chance of victory. A loser, is one that gives up too easily in the face of adversity and if the going gets too tough and, they haven't either the mental or physical stamina to maintain.

The Pathology of a Defeatist follows closely with that of the Pathology of Liberalism due to the inability to overcome the childish mindset based on emotions and emotions only, regardless of facts readily prevalent and/or known. In the face of facts presented, the Defeatist will deny that which is obvious even to the oblivious. A Defeatist has the mind set that proclaims that they are correct because they said that they were, regardless of evidence to the contrary.

It won't matter to Senator Harry Reid that Iraqis are demanding the destruction of Al Qaida, by holding hunger strikes. It won't matter to SoH Pelosi that the number of Iraqi citizens killed has tremendously dropped and it won't matter to Biden that American casualties has also drastically dropped. It won't matter to Kucinich that reconciliation is breaking out in the north, either. Sometimes I have to wonder if the Defeatists, no matter the party affiliation, can tell the difference between day and night.

In regards to the War In Iraq, the worse news to the Defeatist Mind Set is declining casualties; American, Coalition or Civilian and, victorious battles over the enemy and that same enemy declaring that they have lost the War In Iraq. It goes against the grain of the Defeatist Mind Set and they whine and squirm and resort to the known failed and wrong-headed rhetoric. Even the news that American Troops are on their way home is bad news to the Defeatist because they did not force the issue...it was preplanned and according to plan. This causes the Defeatist to change the topic and discussion at hand.

Substantiation of emotionally driven drivel is an aspect of daily discourse considered to be anathema or alien to the very nature of the Defeatist Mind Set. Emotion demands to be reconciled and in the spot light of verifiable facts, the Defeatist cannot maintain any semblance of credibility. The Defeatist will forgo or forswear facts to maintain their discredited mantra, no matter the cause. In regards to the War In Iraq, victory scares the current crop of American Defeatists, no matter if they are in political positions or any number of anti-Americanist groups and public opinion, when flowing away from the preconceived truth will be widely ignored.

While most of us were enjoying turkey for Thanksgiving dinner, Rep. Jack Murtha (D-Johnstown), was eating a little crow. "I think the surge is working," Rep. Murtha said last week after a quick holiday visit to Iraq. The observation isn't remarkable. The signs of progress in Iraq are so obvious that even the New York Times has begun to report them. [...]

This is what has our home-grown Defeatists in a squabbling throe of contempt and trembling fit of woe-is-me-itis. The BDS runs deep...ever since 2000. As disingenuous as a Defeatist is, deep down, they must know what they themselves are...emotionally unhinged. Some would say that it is time for Defeatists to resign from political offices once they have declared themselves irrelevant.

I often ask myself why it is and, what is the driving force behind the Defeatist Mind Set as so demonstrated recently by Senator Harry Reid. As long ago as October in the year of our Lord 2007, Osama Bin Laden admitted defeat in Iraq. His mission there is lost. Yet, "mister" Reid seems to discount that because it goes against the individuals he must cater to in order to maintain political office.

The pathetic Poster Boy of Silly, one "mister" Reid, is so far behind the curve, it is still unbelievable that anyone even bothers to grant him an audience...must be one of those benevolent traits of some. For an example of how "mister" Reid declared that he will never believe any Good News coming from Iraq under any circumstances, please visit my friends at Flopping Aces and review the video therein.

The Pathology of A Defeatist is as follows: I believe what I believe no matter the evidence to the contrary. I cannot accept that I might be wrong on any issue because if I admit to being wrong on any issue, I will be seen as untrustworthy. Therefore, I can never be wrong; therefore, I never am wrong, no matter what.

In case this data has escaped the Reids of the world, the fighting has shifted back to Afghanistan and now Pakistan. Iranistan may or may not be in the mix yet but I am sure it is coming, one day...hopefully not but they sure do like to rattle their sabers.

The Best Part of Sadly, No! Is You Don't Have To Have A Brain

A Socialist would-be Dictator's dreams got dashed, for the time being, in Venezuela over the weekend and the libtards are upset. There are some other socialist scum wondering who is the bigger dictator, Chavez or Bush. One has to be a complete fool to think that GWB is a dictator unless, naturally, that lethal injection of BDS has an affect on the brain similar to that of syphilis.

Let us all pray so.

[UPDATE(S)] Apparently, the Power Grab Machine has failed the would be Castro Wannabe...

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has narrowly lost a referendum on controversial constitutional changes.

Voters rejected the sweeping reforms by a margin of 51% to 49%, the chief of the National Electoral Council said.

Mr Chavez described the defeat as a "photo finish", and urged followers not to turn it into a point of conflict.

Correspondents say the opposition could barely hide their delight and that the victory will put the brakes on Mr Chavez's "Socialist revolution".

I can hardly wait to hear the Libtards whine.

As is with any tin pot dictatorship, results of the vote are subject to sudden, inexplicable change at any moment, comrade.

Wake Up America has a running update as well right here...they even have a Salon type whining.

From the AP Wires:

CARACAS, Venezuela - President Hugo Chavez suffered a stunning defeat Monday in a referendum that would have let him run for re-election indefinitely and impose a socialist system in this major U.S. oil provider.

Voters defeated the sweeping measures Sunday by a vote of 51 percent to 49 percent, said Tibisay Lucena, chief of the National Electoral Council, with voter turnout at just 56 percent.

She said that with 88 percent of the votes counted, the trend was irreversible.

Opposition supporters shouted with joy as Lucena announced the results on national television early Monday, their first victory against Chavez after nine years of electoral defeats.

Some broke down in tears. Others began chanting "And now he's going away!" [...]

Well, I don't know about that "going away" thing but we could only hope as much.

Congratulations Venezuelans!!

ABC News: an unprecedented defeat? Say again?

Breitbart is saying the vote has not yet been settled:

The New York Times:

Voters in this country narrowly defeated a proposed overhaul to the constitution in a contentious referendum over granting President Hugo Chávez sweeping new powers, the Election Commission announced early Monday. [...]

Is it me or, did that sound a little too whiny?

NEWSFLASH!!! CHAVEZ CONCEDES DEFEAT!!

Via Redstate: WaPo and CNN: In a nutshell? We win. They lose.

Wizbang sings

CBS finally steps in it:

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has lost out on a bid to become more like his hero and political ally, Fidel Castro. A measure to allow Chavez to run for re-election an unlimited times was voted down by a margin Chavez calls a "photo finish." [...]

Wizbang seems to think the photo finish was more like a landslide but Hugo is too embarrassed to say.

WSJ is also reporting that Chavez has conceded defeat.

Words of wisdom from Pajamas Media; the Chavez opposition has become muted and they wonder what Chavez is up to next.

OTB: narrow loss it is but a loss is a loss...

[...] Quite a few of us political science types figured Chávez would win, either by hook or crook, but apparently we were mistaken, which is probably good news for those concerned by the possibility of further slides to authoritarianism in Venezuela. It's possible that these amendments will be resurrected again, however, as the next legislative elections aren't due for over two years and Chávez's term doesn’t end until January 2013.

I don't have a polisci anything but I didn't think Chavez would win. Why else would he have threatened the US with oil supply and make a lame claim that the CIA was messing with the elections?

A Libtard at the Huff and Bust whines and whimpers: It seems "mister" Goldstein is "Rather" put out that a fellow socialist scum didn't get his way...

The Bushies have called Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez a dictator and a tyrant... but since when do dictators lose elections? [...]

Poor thing. It was only a matter of time before the Libtards started whining.

[...] I always find Hugo Chavez to be a somewhat annoying subject because he's neither the Satanic Hitler as reflected universally in our media (and it's really creepy how much he's distorted) nor the Great Savior Of The Left. He's a left wing populist with an authoritarian streak, but no matter what they say it's "left wing populist" which makes the Villagers froth, not the authoritarian part. There are plenty of dictators around the world which get respectful treatment from our media, and the anti-Democratic authoritarian actions of our own president disturb them not at all. [...]

The Leftinistra either really don't get it or, they think we are really that dumb. Nice try Lame Bird but, no "cigar" for you...

Jules Crittenden...how to become a tin pot dictator

The Weekly Standard has a Round Up: interesting point here and it explains the Libtard whining and sad attempt at spin...

[...] Of course, our left-wing friends aren't convinced that Chávez is dangerous, or even a nutcase. One Huffington Post blogger says, "But Chávez congratulating his adversaries for winning an election? That's not a dictatorship...that's a functioning Democracy." And Power Line points out that the BBC called Chávez's referendum a "reform." [...]

Concur...they really do think we are that dumb.

[...] "There is a great trust in our Army right now, and I think that is really the superimposing reason why we're successful thus far," Caraccilo said. "And, I think because of that, we can win."

From Al-Reuters: Iraq Politics Must Back Up Surge

~Snooper~

Wait a minute. I could have sworn the war was lost because the political solution didn't come first. Now that the Surge has worked and troops have started to come home, a sure-sign of success, the political solution is now being stressed...again.

I wish these folks would make up my mind. No matter. We always knew the Surge had to work before the political solution could even be attempted.

We look like fools being on the wrong side of the Iraq War, under the direction of that idiot Pelosi and that worm Reid!"

Naturally, the above "conversation" is completely made up by me. But, it is funny just the same. But, seriously, the headline in the NYT is, well, "Rather" peculiar to say the least. And, it is Front Page News! Good Lord. Oh. Wait. That should be good [l]ord, shouldn't it?

Nonstop Theft and Bribery Are Staggering Iraq

In the picture, there is a masked lad holding his hand out, holding a gun. Oh. Wait. That isn't a gun, is it? AHA! I KNEW I've seen that "weapon" before. It is a spray nozzle on the end of a hose of some sort. And, he is cleaning his outstretched hand! RUN FOR COVER!!

Is Islam tolerant? What did Allah & Muhammad have to say on tolerance & related matters? [Emphasis added.]

3:19. Truly, the religion with Allâh is Islâm. Those who were given the Scripture (Jews and Christians) did not differ except, out of mutual jealousy, after knowledge had come to them. And whoever disbelieves in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allâh, then surely, Allâh is Swift in calling to account.

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.

3:86. How shall Allâh guide a people who disbelieved after their belief and after they bore witness that the Messenger (Muhammad) is true and after clear proofs had come unto them? And Allâh guides not the people who are Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers).

3:87. They are those whose recompense is that on them (rests) the Curse of Allâh, of the angels, and of all mankind.

3:110. You [true believers in Islâmic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways, etc.)] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma'rûf (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism and all that Islâm has ordained) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islâm has forbidden), and you believe in Allâh. And had the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) believed, it would have been better for them; among them are some who have faith, but most of them are Al-Fâsiqûn (disobedient to Allâh - and rebellious against Allâh's Command).

3:111. They will do you no harm, barring a trifling annoyance; and if they fight against you, they will show you their backs, and they will not be helped.

3:112. Indignity is put over them wherever they may be, except when under a covenant (of protection) from Allâh, and from men; they have drawn on themselves the Wrath of Allâh, and destruction is put over them. This is because they disbelieved in the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allâh and killed the Prophets without right. This is because they disobeyed (Allâh) and used to transgress beyond bounds (in Allâh's disobedience, crimes and sins).

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.

Allah only accepts Islam; where's the tolerance in that? Judaism & Christianity will never be accepted; Where's the tolerance in that? If anyone turns away from Islam, the curse of Allah, the angels and all mankind is upon him; where's the tolerance? Perhaps its in the hadith. Abasement, humility & destruction are consequences of disbelief. How tolerant!!

Sahih Bukhari Volume 9, Book 84, Number 57:

Narrated 'Ikrima:

Some Zanadiqa (atheists) were brought to 'Ali and he burnt them. The news of this event, reached Ibn 'Abbas who said, "If I had been in his place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah's Apostle forbade it, saying, 'Do not punish anybody with Allah's punishment (fire).' I would have killed them according to the statement of Allah's Apostle, 'Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.'"

Malik's Muwatta Book 36, Number 36.18.15:

Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "If someone changes his deen - strike his neck!"[...]

Apostates may be killed. That's Islamic law.

@O8.4 Click this link, search for @O8.4.

There is no indemnity for killing an apostate (O: or any expiation, since it is killing someone who deserves to die).

Does Allah have any more choice epithets for us?

8:22. Verily! The worst of (moving) living creatures with Allâh are the deaf and the dumb, those who understand not (i.e. the disbelievers).

98:6. Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islâm, the Qur'ân and Prophet Muhammad from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikûn will abide in the Fire of Hell. They are the worst of creatures.

We are the worst of creatures; destined for Hell fire. Yep, Islam is real tolerant. Allah added something more.

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.

Is that of any force or effect, or just blowing off steam?

@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),

Reliance of the Traveler, the all purpose handbook of Islamic Law, told you that the Caliph makes war on Jews & Christians and why. Al-Misri quotes the same verse I quoted for you, he quotes it as the basis of fiqh. Muhammad added insult to injury.

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!

What does Allah say about Muslims?

3:110. You [true believers in Islâmic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways, etc.)] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma'rûf (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism and all that Islâm has ordained) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islâm has forbidden), and you believe in Allâh. And had the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) believed, it would have been better for them; among them are some who have faith, but most of them are Al-Fâsiqûn (disobedient to Allâh - and rebellious against Allâh's Command).

Muslims are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; exactly what is the meaning of this? Muhammad has the answer!

Sahih Bukhari Volume 6, Book 60, Number 80:

Narrated Abu Huraira:

The Verse:--"You (true Muslims) are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind." means, the best of peoples for the people, as you bring them with chains on their necks till they embrace Islam.

See how tolerant Islam is? It calls us the worst of living creatures, declares war upon us, curses us and calls for the decapitation of aptostates. Then it calls for Muslims to lead us to Islam with chains on our necks!
Why in Hell should we tolerate that?!

For those recalcitrant morons who require more evidence of Islam's violent intolerance: links to Ibn Kathir's Tafsir; the titles alone should convince anyone. Read the tafsir and curse Islam.
