Obamination: 9/11 Disservice

Political correctness may be defined as irrational persistence in the belief that "it is possible to pick up a turd by the clean end".  Ten years ago, the "Magnificent Ninteen", armed with box cutters, hijacked four commercial passenger aircraft and flew them three of them into occupied office structures.

    The immediate tactical objective of that attack was to maximize grief, suffering, psychological impact, insecurity, distrust, physical destruction and economic damage to America.  The extended tactical objective  was to  instill a sense of defeat, insecurity & helplessness; to effect the maximum possible negative impact on our will and ability to mount an effective counter attack and defense.

    The strategic objective is to effectively eliminate what they perceive as the greatest obstacle to total global conquest & domination and the establishment of permanent Islamic hegemony.

    The attack was not planned, funded facilitated and executed by a single nation state or alliance of nation states.  It was  planned and executed by  believing Muslims, in the name of Allah.   When they slit the throats of the flight crews, they  shouted the takbir.  "Allah hu Akbar" says it all.  We do not need any investigation, we do not need any evidence, we do not require interrogations, trials or witnesses.  The proof stands out clearly in Islam's cannon of scripture, tradition, exegeses & jurisprudence. 

    President Barack Hussein Obama, in his weekly address, made no mention of or allusion to the fatal facts stated above.  He pretended that the G'd'd Abomination was the result of amorphous natural forces, equivalent to an earthquake or hurricane.  In fact, it was an attack by  enemies of the human race; deracinated zombies Hellbent on a course of maximal destruction by what they believe to be Allah's imperatives, threat & promise.

    As a wise man said "Its Islam, stupid!". Not Al-Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood, 'extremists', 'radicals' neither was it terrorists. "Its Islam, stupid!"

    Allah commands Muslims to conquer the entire world. The conquest imperatives are contained in Al-Anfal 39 & At-Taubah 29. "Fight them until" resistance ceases and "only Allah is worshiped", "altogether and everywhere".  "Fight those who"... until they "pay the jizya" and "feel themselves subdued".  What could possibly be re obvious? 

    Moe confirmed the imperatives, declaring that he was "ordered to fight the people" and "commanded to fight with men", the terminal condition in both cases being effective conversion & submission to Islam. 

    The imperatives are codified in Shari'ah, most clearly in Reliance of the Traveller, Book O, Chapter 9, Paragraph 8:  "The caliph (o25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians "... . Jihad is defined as "war against non-Muslims", a "communal obligation" upon Muslims, "meaning upon the Muslims each year".  Hedaya confirms the fact that jihad is undertaken on Islamic initiative, it is offensive, not defensive: "The destruction of the sword  is incurred by infidels, although they be not the first aggressors" [Volume II, Book IX, Chapter `, Page 141]

    The outcome is predicted in exegesis: Tafsir Ibn Kathir leaves no doubt.

    Ten years ago, Shrub lied about the identity of the enemy who attacked us, presumably because his family is deep in the pockets of Saudi Arabia and he did not want to face well justified demands for the extermination of Islam. 

    Ten years later, Obamination  persists in the same deception, presumably because he is a Muslim.  He makes reference to ending the fighting in Iraq and withdrawing from Afghanistan, but none to why we invaded them.  Both nations base their laws on Shari'ah, the same Islamic law that mandates yearly attacks against disbelievers. We lost those wars wasting  billions of dollars and priceless lives & limbs. Victory requires stamping out Islam.

    Thanks and a tip of the hat to Atlas Shrugs for bringing Obanination's spew of feces to my attention.  But I am not in complete agreement with Pamela Geller: "The call for service on September 11th is inappropriate and sacrilegious. September 11th is a national day of mourning. Not service, remembrance for those who died in a surprise military strike against the United States of America conducted by the military wing of the global jihad, resulting in the largest loss of life in American history.". 

    September 11 should be a national day of cursing, neither service and not mourning.  We should be united in raising our voices to God in supplication for the immediate death & eternal damnation of those who planned, financed, facilitated, executed, enjoyed, celebrated and sympathized with the attack.  We should be united in prayer for the eternal damnation of Muhammad and the complete and permanent eradication of the war cult he founded.

    Turds do not have clean ends. Islam does not have clean ends.  It was created by Moe for his own personal emolument through the perpetuation of war, generating a continuing flow of spoils and tribute.  Islam is mercenary, it can not be rendered beneficent.  Islam is aggressively violent, it can not be rendered passive.  For the disgusting details, see: Islam's Mercenary Mission and What's Wrong With Islam/Muslims?.

    Obaminatio's spew is below, followed by my commentary on the major points.

Remarks of President Barack Obama
Weekly Address
Saturday, August 27, 2011

In just two weeks, we’ll come together, as a nation, to mark the 10th anniversary of the September 11th attacks.  We’ll remember the innocent lives we lost.  We’ll stand with the families who loved them.  We’ll honor the heroic first responders who rushed to the scene and saved so many.  And we’ll pay tribute to our troops and military families, and all those who have served over the past ten years, to keep us safe and strong.

We’ll also recall how the worst terrorist attack in American history brought out the best in the American people.  How Americans lined up to give blood.  How volunteers drove across the country to lend a hand.  How schoolchildren donated their savings.  How communities, faith groups and businesses collected food and clothing. 

We were united, and the outpouring of generosity and compassion reminded us that in times of challenge, we Americans move forward together, as one people.

This September 11th, Michelle and I will join the commemorations at Ground Zero, in Shanksville, and at the Pentagon.  But even if you can’t be in New York, Pennsylvania or Virginia, every American can be part of this anniversary.  Once again, 9/11 will be a National Day of Service and Remembrance.  And in the days and weeks ahead, folks across the country—in all 50 states—will come together, in their communities and neighborhoods, to honor the victims of 9/11 and to reaffirm the strength of our nation with acts of service and charity.

In Minneapolis, volunteers will help restore a community center.  In Winston-Salem, North Carolina, they’ll hammer shingles and lay floors to give families a new home.  In Tallahassee, Florida, they’ll assemble care packages for our troops overseas and their families here at home.  In Orange County, California, they’ll renovate homes for our veterans.  And once again, Michelle and I look forward to joining a local service project as well. 

There are so many ways to get involved, and every American can do something.  To learn more about the opportunities where you live, just go online and visit Serve.gov.  Even the smallest act of service, the simplest act of kindness, is a way to honor those we lost; a way to reclaim that spirit of unity that followed 9/11.          

On this 10th anniversary, we still face great challenges as a nation.  We’re emerging from the worst economic crisis in our lifetimes.  We’re taking the fight to al Qaeda, ending the war in Iraq and starting to bring our troops home from Afghanistan.  And we’re working to rebuild the foundation of our national strength here at home. 

None of this will be easy.  And it can’t be the work of government alone.  As we saw after 9/11, the strength of America has always been the character and compassion of our people.  So as we mark this solemn anniversary, let’s summon that spirit once more.  And let’s show that the sense of common purpose that we need in America doesn’t have to be a fleeting moment; it can be a lasting virtue—not just on one day, but every day.

Americans move forward together, as one people.

    That crap belongs in a campaign speech, not in a remembrance of innocent lives lost in a violent attack by believers in Islam.  For a politician who constantly divides the nation by race and economic status to mention togetherness, implying unity is the Acme of arrogance. "Move forward" implies the Socialist agenda of economic destruction & redistribution. That phrase belongs in a paid campaign commercial; it is entirely unrelated to the event being commemorated. 

every American can be part of this anniversary

    Those of us who are old enough to remember the Abomination can not avoid remembering the horrific events of that day. The image of jumpers evading the flames and smoke, hurtling toward the pavement below is indelibly imprinted on our memories. Likewise the image of the collapsing towers.

    Far from being an empty clause, it is another appeal to unity: unity in voting to re-elect the worst President in American history. It belongs in a paid campaign commercial, not in a commemoration of innocent lives lost.

National Day of Service and Remembrance

    There is no rational connection between service and remembrance. This clause, like its precedents, is polemical; unrelated to the topic at hand. "Service" fits right in with "sacrifice" and "eat your peas". I happen to like peas, I will eat as many as I can get my hands on when they are fresh. I had a bowl of pea soup for breakfast. I do not like the Socialist agenda of tax increases, which Obamination is promoting with his spew of excrement.

reaffirm the strength of our nation with acts of service and charity. 

    How did FDR reaffirm the strength of our nation after Pearl Harbor?  "Service and charity" devolves into tax increases. It is entirely out of place in a speech remembering the Abomination.

Michelle and I look forward to joining a local service project as well.

    Mr. President, do a national service, right now: resign!  Resign!!  Resign!!! 

emerging from the worst economic crisis

    No, we are plunging deeper into the abyss as a direct result of the Socialist agenda behind your outrageous policies.  That phrase, like so many others, belongs in a paid campaign commercial.

taking the fight to al Qaeda

    Al-Qaeda is a sub set of the enemy, not the enemy. Islam is the enemy. The war won't be over until Islam no longer exists; until there are no more Muslims.  When every Muslim is dead or apostate, then the war will be ended in victory, not before.

ending the war in Iraq and starting to bring our troops home from Afghanistan

    We have not won; we have lost and are losing because those nations are populated and governed by Muslims under Islamic law, the same law that mandates annual attacks on disbelievers.

rebuild the foundation of our national strength

    The Declaration of Independence & Constitution are the foundation of our national strength; you are eroding and evading them. The clause actually refers to the economy, which you are deliberately destroying. Those words belong in a paid campaign commercial, not in a speech about the Abomination.

character and compassion of our people

    This phrase and the clause it belongs to devolve into the theme of including the enemy under the umbrella of protection afforded by the Bill of Rights. "The right to peacefully practice Islam."  Islam can not be practiced peacefully because "Jihad is ordained for you."  and Muslims are not permitted to pick and choose from the Qur'an

sense of common purpose

    Common purpose? Communism! The phrase belongs in a paid campaign commercial. 

not just on one day, but every day

    So why bring it up now, in the context of remembering the G'd'd Abomination?  A proper remembrance involves the 3000 who lost their lives and the thousands who suffered injuries, many of whom are disabled.  A proper remembrance involves acknowledgment of the cause of those deaths & injuries and the identity & content of the ideology which motivated it.  A campaign speech pushing the Socialist agenda is entirely out of place in that context.

Brilliant Orator; Damn Fool: Netanyahu Addresses Congress

Brilliant Orator; Damn Fool: Netanyahu Addresses Congress For those who missed the speech, MSNBC has a video which displays the P.M.'s passionate connection with his primary audience who responded with many standing ovations. 

    The speech is preceded by an advertisement and a news clip; I am not certain that I grabbed the correct embed code.

Speech by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to a Joint Meeting of the United States Congress
May 24, 2011
I am deeply honored by your warm welcome. And I am deeply honored that you have given me the
opportunity to address Congress a second time.
Mr. Vice President, do you remember the time we were the new kids in town?
And I do see a lot of old friends here. And I do see a lot of new friends of Israel here. Democrats and
Republicans alike.
Israel has no better friend than America1. And America has no better friend than Israel. We stand together to
defend democracy. We stand together to advance peace. We stand together to fight terrorism.
Congratulations America, Congratulations, Mr. President. You got bin Laden. Good riddance!2
In an unstable Middle East, Israel is the one anchor of stability. In a region of shifting alliances, Israel is
America’s unwavering ally. Israel has always been pro-American. Israel will always be pro-American.
My friends, you don’t need to do nation building in Israel. We’re already built. You don’t need to export
democracy to Israel. We’ve already got it. You don’t need to send American troops to defend Israel. We
defend ourselves. You’ve been very generous in giving us tools to do the job of defending Israel on our own.
Thank you all, and thank you President Obama, for your steadfast commitment to Israel’s security.3 I know
economic times are tough. I deeply appreciate this.
Support for Israel’s security is a wise investment in our common future. For an epic battle is now unfolding in
the Middle East, between tyranny and freedom.4 A great convulsion is shaking the earth from the Khyber
Pass to the Straits of Gibraltar. The tremors have shattered states and toppled governments. And we can all
see that the ground is still shifting. Now this historic moment holds the promise of a new dawn of freedom
and opportunity. Millions of young people are determined to change their future. We all look at them. They
muster courage. They risk their lives. They demand dignity. They desire liberty.
These extraordinary scenes in Tunis and Cairo, evoke those of Berlin and Prague in 1989. Yet as we share
their hopes, but we also must also remember that those hopes could be snuffed out as they were in Tehran
in 1979. You remember what happened then. The brief democratic spring in Iran was cut short by a
ferocious and unforgiving tyranny. This same tyranny smothered Lebanon’s democratic Cedar Revolution,
and inflicted on that long-suffering country, the medieval rule of Hezbollah.
So today, the Middle East stands at a fateful crossroads. Like all of you, I pray
that the peoples of the region choose the path less travelled, the path of liberty. No one knows what this
path consists of better than you. This path is not paved by elections alone. It is paved when governments
permit protests in town squares, when limits are placed on the powers of rulers5, when judges are beholden
to laws and not men, and when human rights cannot be crushed by tribal loyalties or mob rule.
Israel has always embraced this path, in the Middle East has long rejected it. In a region where women are
stoned, gays are hanged, Christians are persecuted, Israel stands out. It is different.
As the great English writer George Eliot predicted over a century ago, that once established, the Jewish
state will "shine like a bright star of freedom amid the despotisms of the East.” Well, she was right. We have
a free press, independent courts, an open economy, rambunctious parliamentary debates. You think you
guys are tough on one another in Congress? Come spend a day in the Knesset. Be my guest.
Courageous Arab protesters, are now struggling to secure these very same rights for their peoples, for their
societies.6 We're proud that over one million Arab citizens of Israel have been enjoying these rights for
decades. Of the 300 million Arabs in the Middle East and North Africa, only Israel’s Arab citizens enjoy real
democratic rights. I want you to stop for a second and think about that. Of those 300 million Arabs, less than
one-half of one-percent are truly free, and they're all citizens of Israel!
This startling fact reveals a basic truth: Israel is not what is wrong about the Middle East. Israel is what is
right about the Middle East.7
Israel fully supports the desire of Arab peoples in our region to live freely. We long for the day when Israel
will be one of many real democracies in the Middle East.
Fifteen years ago, I stood at this very podium, and said that democracy must start to take root in the Arab
World. Well, it's begun to take root.8This beginning holds the promise of a brilliant future of peace and
prosperity. For I believe that a Middle East that is genuinely democratic will be a Middle East truly at peace.9
But while we hope and work for the best, we must also recognize that powerful forces10 oppose this future.
They oppose modernity. They oppose democracy. They oppose peace.
Foremost among these forces is Iran. The tyranny in Tehran brutalizes its own people. It supports attacks
against American troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. It subjugates Lebanon and Gaza. It sponsors terror
worldwide.11
When I last stood here, I spoke of the dire consequences of Iran developing nuclear weapons. Now time is
running out, and the hinge of history may soon turn. For the greatest danger facing humanity could soon be
upon us: A militant Islamic regime armed with nuclear weapons.
Militant Islam12threatens the world. It threatens Islam. I have no doubt that it will ultimately be defeated. It will
eventually succumb to the forces of freedom and progress. But like other fanaticisms that were doomed to
fail, militant Islam could exact a horrific price from all of us before its inevitable demise.
A nuclear-armed Iran13 would ignite a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. It would give terrorists a nuclear
umbrella. It would make the nightmare of nuclear terrorism a clear and present danger throughout the world.
I want you to understand what this means. They could put the bomb anywhere. They could put it on a
missile. It could be on a container ship in a port, or in a suitcase on a subway.
Now the threat to my country cannot be overstated. Those who dismiss it are sticking their heads in the
sand. Less than seven decades after six million Jews were murdered, Iran's leaders deny the Holocaust of
the Jewish people, while calling for the annihilation of the Jewish state.
Leaders who spew such venom14, should be banned from every respectable forum on the planet. But there is
something that makes the outrage even greater: The lack of outrage. In much of the international
community, the calls for our destruction are met with utter silence. It is even worse because there are many
who rush to condemn Israel for defending itself against Iran’s terror proxies.
But not you. Not America.15 You have acted differently. You've condemned the Iranian regime for its genocidal
aims. You’ve passed tough sanctions against Iran. History will salute you America.
President Obama has said that the United States is determined to prevent Iran from developing nuclear
weapons. He successfully led the Security Council to adopt sanctions against Iran. You in Congress passed
even tougher sanctions. These words and deeds are vitally important.16
Yet the Ayatollah regime briefly suspended its nuclear program only once, in 2003, when it feared the
possibility of military action. That same year, Muammar Qadaffi gave up his nuclear weapons program, and
for the same reason. The more Iran believes that all options are on the table, the less the chance of
confrontation. This is why I ask you to continue to send an unequivocal message: That America will never
permit Iran to develop nuclear weapons.
As for Israel, if history has taught the Jewish people anything, it is that we must take calls for our destruction
seriously. We are a nation that rose from the ashes of the Holocaust. When we say never again, we mean
never again. 17Israel always reserves the right to defend itself.
My friends, while Israel will be ever vigilant in its defense, we will never give up on our quest for peace. I
guess we’ll give it up when we achieve it. Israel wants peace. Israel needs peace. We've achieved historic
peace agreements with Egypt and Jordan that have held up for decades.
I remember what it was like before we had peace. I was nearly killed in a firefight inside the Suez Canal. I
mean that literally. I battled terrorists along both banks of the Jordan River. Too many Israelis have lost
loved ones. I know their grief. I lost my brother.
So no one in Israel wants a return to those terrible days. The peace with Egypt and Jordan has long served
as an anchor of stability and peace in the heart of the Middle East.
This peace should be bolstered by economic and political support to all those who remain committed to
peace.18
The peace agreements with Egypt and Jordan are vital. But they're not enough. We must also find a way to
forge a lasting peace with the Palestinians19. Two years ago, I publicly committed to a solution of two states
for two peoples: A Palestinian state alongside the Jewish state20.
I am willing to make painful compromises to achieve this historic peace21. As the leader of Israel, it is my
responsibility to lead my people to peace.
This is not easy for me. I recognize that in a genuine peace, we will be required to give up parts of the
Jewish homeland. In Judea and Samaria, the Jewish people are not foreign occupiers.22 We are not the
British in India. We are not the Belgians in the Congo.
This is the land of our forefathers, the Land of Israel, to which Abraham brought the idea of one God, where
David set out to confront Goliath, and where Isaiah saw a vision of eternal peace. No distortion of history
can deny the four thousand year old bond, between the Jewish people and the Jewish land.
But there is another truth: The Palestinians share this small land with us. We seek a peace in which they will
be neither Israel’s subjects nor its citizens. They should enjoy a national life of dignity as a free, viable and
independent people in their own state.23 They should enjoy a prosperous economy, where their creativity and
initiative can flourish.
We've already seen the beginnings of what is possible. In the last two years,
the Palestinians have begun to build a better life for themselves. Prime Minister Fayad has led this effort. I
wish him a speedy recovery from his recent operation.
We've helped the Palestinian economy by removing hundreds of barriers and roadblocks24 to the free flow of
goods and people. The results have been nothing short of remarkable. The Palestinian economy is
booming. It's growing by more than 10% a year.
Palestinian cities look very different today than they did just a few years ago. They have shopping malls,
movie theaters, restaurants, banks. They even have e-businesses. This is all happening without peace.
Imagine what could happen with peace. Peace would herald a new day for both peoples. It would make the
dream of a broader Arab-Israeli peace a realistic possibility.
So now here is the question. You have to ask it. If the benefits of peace with the Palestinians are so clear,
why has peace eluded us? Because all six Israeli Prime Ministers since the signing of Oslo accords agreed
to establish a Palestinian state. Myself included. So why has peace not been achieved? Because so far, the
Palestinians have been unwilling to accept a Palestinian state, if it meant accepting a Jewish state alongside
it.
You see, our conflict has never been about the establishment of a Palestinian state. It has always been
about the existence of the Jewish state.25 This is what this conflict is about. In 1947, the United Nations voted
to partition the land into a Jewish state and an Arab state. The Jews said yes. The Palestinians said no. In
recent years, the Palestinians twice refused generous offers by Israeli Prime Ministers, to establish a
Palestinian state on virtually all the territory won by Israel in the Six Day War.
They were simply unwilling to end the conflict. And I regret to say this: They continue to educate their
children to hate.26 They continue to name public squares after terrorists. And worst of all, they continue to
perpetuate the fantasy that Israel will one day be flooded by the descendants of Palestinian refugees.
My friends, this must come to an end. President Abbas must do what I have done. I stood before my people,
and I told you it wasn’t easy for me, and I said… "I will accept a Palestinian state."27 It is time for President
Abbas to stand before his people and say… "I will accept a Jewish state."28
Those six words will change history. They will make clear to the Palestinians that this conflict must come to
an end. That they are not building a state to continue the conflict with Israel, but to end it. They will convince
the people of Israel that they have a true partner for peace.29 With such a partner, the people of Israel will be
prepared to make a far reaching compromise. I will be prepared to make a far reaching compromise.
This compromise must reflect the dramatic demographic changes that have occurred since 1967. The vast
majority of the 650,000 Israelis who live beyond the 1967 lines, reside in neighborhoods and suburbs of
Jerusalem and Greater Tel Aviv.
These areas are densely populated but geographically quite small. Under any realistic peace agreement,
these areas, as well as other places of critical strategic and national importance, will be incorporated into the
final borders of Israel.
The status of the settlements will be decided only in negotiations. But we must also be honest. So I am
saying today something that should be said publicly by anyone serious about peace. In any peace
agreement that ends the conflict, some settlements will end up beyond Israel’s borders. The precise
delineation of those borders must be negotiated. We will be very generous on the size of a future Palestinian
state. But as President Obama said, the border will be different than the one that existed on June 4, 1967.
Israel will not return to the indefensible lines of 1967.
We recognize that a Palestinian state must be big enough to be viable, independent and prosperous.
President Obama rightly referred to Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people, just as he referred to the
future Palestinian state as the homeland of the Palestinian people. Jews from around the world have a right
to immigrate to the Jewish state. Palestinians from around the world should have a right to immigrate, if they
so choose, to a Palestinian state. This means that the Palestinian refugee problem will be resolved outside
the borders of Israel.
As for Jerusalem, only a democratic Israel has protected freedom of worship for all faiths in the city30.
Jerusalem must never again be divided. Jerusalem must remain the united capital of Israel. I know that this
is a difficult issue for Palestinians. But I believe with creativity and goodwill a solution can be found.
This is the peace I plan to forge with a Palestinian partner committed to peace. But you know very well, that
in the Middle East, the only peace that will hold is a peace you can defend.31
So peace must be anchored in security. In recent years, Israel withdrew from South Lebanon and Gaza. But
we didn't get peace. Instead, we got 12,000 thousand rockets fired from those areas on our cities, on our
children, by Hezbollah and Hamas. The UN peacekeepers in Lebanon failed to prevent the smuggling of this
weaponry. The European observers in Gaza evaporated overnight. So if Israel simply walked out of the
territories, the flow of weapons into a future Palestinian state would be unchecked. Missiles fired from it
could reach virtually every home in Israel in less than a minute. I want you to think about that too. Imagine
that right now we all had less than 60 seconds to find shelter from an incoming rocket. Would you live that
way? Would anyone live that way? Well, we aren’t going to live that way either.32
The truth is that Israel needs unique security arrangements because of its unique size. Israel is one of the
smallest countries in the world. Mr. Vice President, I'll grant you this. It’s bigger than Delaware. It’s even
bigger than Rhode Island. But that’s about it. Israel on the 1967 lines would be half the width of the
Washington Beltway.
Now here’s a bit of nostalgia. I first came to Washington thirty years ago as a young diplomat. It took me a
while, but I finally figured it out: There is an America beyond the Beltway. But Israel on the 1967 lines would
be only nine miles wide. So much for strategic depth.
So it is therefore absolutely vital for Israel’s security that a Palestinian state be fully demilitarized. And it is
vital that Israel maintain a long-term military presence along the Jordan River. Solid security arrangements
on the ground are necessary not only to protect the peace, they are necessary to protect Israel in case the
peace unravels. For in our unstable region, no one can guarantee that our peace partners today will be there
tomorrow.33
And when I say tomorrow, I don't mean some distant time in the future. I mean -- tomorrow. Peace can be
achieved only around the negotiating table. The Palestinian attempt to impose a settlement through the
United Nations will not bring peace. It should be forcefully opposed by all those who want to see this conflict
end.
I appreciate the President’s clear position on this issue. Peace cannot be imposed. It must be negotiated.
But it can only be negotiated with partners committed to peace.34
And Hamas is not a partner for peace. Hamas remains committed to Israel's destruction and to terrorism.
They have a charter. That charter not only calls for the obliteration of Israel, but says ‘kill the Jews wherever
you find them’. Hamas’ leader condemned the killing of Osama bin Laden and praised him as a holy warrior.
Now again I want to make this clear. Israel is prepared to sit down today and negotiate peace with the
Palestinian Authority.35 I believe we can fashion a brilliant future of peace for our children. But Israel will not
negotiate with a Palestinian government backed by the Palestinian version of Al Qaeda.36
So I say to President Abbas: Tear up your pact with Hamas! Sit down and negotiate! Make peace with the
Jewish state! And if you do, I promise you this. Israel will not be the last country to welcome a Palestinian
state as a new member of the United Nations. It will be the first to do so.37
My friends, the momentous trials of the last century, and the unfolding events of this century, attest to the
decisive role of the United States in advancing peace and defending freedom. Providence entrusted the
United States to be the guardian of liberty. All peoples who cherish freedom owe a profound debt of
gratitude to your great nation. Among the most grateful nations is my nation, the people of Israel, who have
fought for their liberty and survival against impossible odds, in ancient and modern times alike.
I speak on behalf of the Jewish people and the Jewish state when I say to you, representatives of America,
Thank you. Thank you for your unwavering support for Israel. Thank you for ensuring that the flame of
freedom burns bright throughout the world. May God bless all of you. And may God forever bless the United
States of America.


  1. With friends like America, who needs enemies? A series of American Presidents have let Israel down and sabotaged her, beginning with Carter. Obama must be numbered among the enemies of Israel. The Congress and electorate are friends of Israel, but they don't make our foreign policy.
  2. That is a prime example of meaningless emotional bonding, much too shallow. "Getting" Usama, while necessary, is insufficient.
  3. That statement should have been dripping with sarcasm, I failed to detect any. Obama is not committed to Israel's security, far from it.
  4. The real battle is between tyrants, not between tyranny and liberty.  Those who seek liberty are an insignificant minority, unlikely to prevail.
  5. Netanyahu brought out one crucial point concealed by Obama: the necessity of limited government. Without it, libertarian revolts are doomed to failure.
  6. One crucial element is missing: acknowledgment of the fact that those rights are contradicted by Islam; the two are incompatible.
  7. That brilliant statement of the blindingly obvious truth is a slap in the face to the E.U. & U.N. It should be restated early and often.
  8. Until Islam is removed, the seed will fall upon rocks and be consumed by birds or scorched by the sun. It can not sprout and blossom until Islam is eliminated.
  9. Peace is not a function of democracy. Democracy and aggression are not mutually exclusive. Democracies will only be peaceful if their electorates want peace and eschew aggression.
  10. The powerful force which opposes peace & freedom is Islam. Netanyahu should have named it.
  11. Why does Iran oppose liberty and sponsor terrorism? What "powerful force" motivates those policies?  "Its Islam, stupid!".
  12. If you thought my headline was outrageous, now you will learn the reason, its in that statement: "militant Islam" "Its Islam, stupid!". The name stands alone, without adjectives, qualifiers or modifiers. "Its Islam, stupid!". Islam's purpose is the accrual of power, wealth & income. Its method is martial. These fatal facts are fully documented in another blog post: Islam's Mercenary Mission, there you will find the relevant ayat & ahadith quoted and linked. Islam is militant by definition.
  13. Pakistan already has the bomb. It is just a matter of time before the regime falls to those more ready to use the bomb Nobody is willing to take effective action against Iran to prevent it from building a nuke.
  14. The leadership of Iran is not the problem. Its Islam, stupid!". Open the Qur'an to 9:29 and read itRead JM Rodwell's translation for its outstanding clarity. Turn next to 7:167Who will Allah send to torment the Jews?  Next, read Sahih Bukhari 4.52.177Iran did not invent Islamic genocide of Jews. Who did?  For the answer, turn to 8:67.
  15. Every time Israel counter attacks, our President demands "restraint". Have you so soon forgotten the bitter bitching about "Cast Lead"?
  16. Those sanctions are necessary and insufficient. Iran's nuke program must be destroyed by military force.
  17. This line had strong emphasis in the video and for good reason.  There is no reason why Israel should submit to genocide.
  18. A nice retroactive swipe at Obama's support for the revolt against Mubarak.  It will probably be misinterpreted to support paying tribute to the new Muslim Brotherhood regime.
  19. Islam does not make lasting peace, only ten year hudnas, which are contracts at will, subject to revocation when the Muslims gain sufficient strength to renew their aggression.
  20. They do not want a state, if they did, they would have accepted the partition plan in '47 instead of waging war against Israel. They want Israel destroyed and the Jews massacred. Nothing less will satisfy their blood lust. Besides which, they are not a people, they are undifferentiated Arabs from Egypt & Syria.
  21. Compromising, negotiating & appeasing Islam result in more aggression, not in peace. All such gestures are perceived as signs of weakness, which emboldens the predator. Land for "peace" is a fool's bargain, you will have neither land nor peace.
  22. A rarely stated truth: Jews are occupied, not occupying. Few will accept that fact.
  23. It is called Jordan.
  24. When you remove check points and security barriers, Jews die as a result, not a wise move.
  25. In a previous blog post:Victory: the Path to Peace.  I detailed the Islamic foundation of violence against Israel. Rejectionism is about Allah's promise of victory and his failure to make it permanent. Israel's recovery of stolen hand and Islamic failure to reconquer it proves Allah to be an impotent idol. Muslims can not tolerate that blasphemous reality.
  26. Inculcating hate in the schools is an egregious violation of the Oslo Accords. While that violation continues, no new negotiation should be started.
  27. A foolish act of treason against Israel and the human race.
  28. The demand is impossible. Even if possible, no such statement could be trusted by any sentient person. Tolerance of Israel is tantamount to apostasy.
  29. In that case, the people of Israel would be damned fools, doomed to destruction and they would deserve it. Islam is a lie and Muslims are liars. Arafat talked peace in English to the press and war in Arabic to his brethren.
  30. That is a damned lie. Jews and Christians are restricted in their access to the Temple Mount and arrested if they attempt to pray there.
  31. Cognitive dissonance is right on the surface of that statement, easily seen and recognized. If Muslims wanted peace, the conflict would end. Instead, they want victory and expanded conquest.  Peace must be complete, absolute, exclusive and permanent. It can not exist while Muslims are Hellbent on world conquest. 
  32. Then start expelling Muslims from the land of Israel, send them home, far beyond your borders. Rocket fire will only stop when there are no living Muslims within rocket range.
  33. More cognitive dissonance: he knows that peace is impossible but he can't confess his knowledge, he can only vaguely imply it.
  34. Cognitive dissonance is clearly evident. We all know blessed well that Abbas has no interest in peace: "from the river to the sea".  Israel has no partner for peace, never had one and never will.
  35. What do HAMAS and P.A. have in common? They are Muslims. They believe the same crap. They observe the same "religious obligation" to make annual military attacks against disbelievers.  "Its Islam, stupid!".  How can Netanyahu be so damned stupid?! 
  36. Al-Qaeda, HAMAS Muslim Brotherhood & Islam are one. They are all the same. Read the HAMAS  Charter. "The Islamic Resistance Movement: The Movement's programme is Islam. From it, it draws its ideas, ways of thinking and understanding of the universe, life and man. It resorts to it for judgement in all its conduct, and it is inspired by it for guidance of its steps." ... "Allah is its target, the Prophet is its model, the Koran its constitution: Jihad is its path and death for the sake of Allah is the loftiest of its wishes."  Anyone having a brain located outside of his anus should be able to comprehend the obvious identity. Al-Qaeda and HAMAS are Al-Ikhwan offshoots. The HAMAS Charter echoes that of the Brotherhood.  Get a clue, for Chrissake!!! Why in Hell is it called the Muslim Brotherhood?  "Its Islam, stupid!"!!!
  37. Idiot! There are 57 Islamic members outvoting us already, we don't need any more!!  Such stupidity is incomprehensible.

Fighting Terror

Education is key to fighting terror

The Bangkok Post gave that headline to an interview with Jean-Paul Laborde, who heads the U.N.'s Counter-Terrorism Implementation Task Force Office.  Click the link above to read the article, i am digging for coprolites. 

Terrorism has yet to be eradicated after lots of security and law enforcement efforts over several consecutive years, so integrated approaches which uphold the value of educational curricula, promotion of tolerance and protection of human rights are needed for medium-term and sustainable policies to better address the regional and global menace.

yet to be eradicated

    How do you hope to eradicate terrorism without eradicating those who perform it and those who direct them to perform it?

lots of security

    A balloon compressed at any point expands wherever it is not compressed. It is not possible to secure every potential soft target 24/7/365.

law enforcement efforts

    Terrorism is not a law enforcement issue, it is one component of warfare. Since it is inspired by sanctified doctrine and directed by both state and non-state entities, it must be combated on two battlefronts: ideological and military.  Whenever you arrest or kill one terrorist, others will come forward to replace him.

educational curricula

    We do not control the schools in Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Lebanon, Syria or Iran. Their text books are not printed in our language. We can not dictate what content they inculcate or how they inculcate it.  The suggestion that it can be done demonstrates the rare height of arrogance achieved by bureaucrats.
   
    Schools in Islamic nations teach the sanctity, necessity & divine obligation of terrorism because they are Islamic. They teach the contents of the Qur'an, Sunnah & Sira because those texts define & exemplify Islam.  If you want to do something about that, eliminate Islam.

promotion of tolerance

    We stupidly tolerate Islam, which seeks to destroy or dominate us; there is no better sign of civilizational insanity.  Islam does not tolerate us because intolerance is ordained by Allah in his book and Moe in his Sunnah.  You can not inject tolerance into Islam because Allah said "whoever seeks a religion other than Islâm, it will never be accepted of him" [3:85] Moe said "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.'".  [Sahih Bukhari 1.8.387]

protection of human rights

    Such as our right to live, secure in our persons and property; or the Muslim's 'right' to kill, enslave, rape, pillage and plunder. Moe said something about that in the hadith cited above, so I will quote the entire saying here. Read it slowly; let the full meaning sink in.

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."

ordered to fight the people

    What could possibly be less tolerant than that?

till they say

    Freedom of religion, anyone?

 then their blood and property will be sacred to us

    Our blood and property are not sacred to Muslims until we become Muslims. Life? liberty? Property?  Kiss them goodbye if you will not eliminate Islam from the earth. Its open season on us so long as Islam exists.

has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have 

    Only Muslims have rights. Got a clue yet??    

sustainable policies

    Slowly bleeding to death, sending our soldiers to fight an invisible enemy with suicidal rules of engagement is not sustainable.  Random pat downs & body scans are not sustainable. Waiting for the next bomb to detonate is not sustainable. Constant terror is not sustainable.  Paying tribute is not sustainable. What did President Jefferson do?

In the coming years, greater regional and international cooperation will be very much needed, or we will not have the whole picture of the terrorist groups.

regional and international cooperation

    You might begin by adopting Israel's airline security tactics and continue by accepting her check points and security wall instead of condemning them.

terrorist groups

    There is one terrorist group: Islam.

Violent extremism is still very well spread among the populations. If you don't do something now _ for example, promoting proper Islamic teaching _ in a year or two it will be more dangerous.

Violent extremism

    "Its Islam, stupid."  Islam is intrinsically violent, Allah's jihad imperatives are clearly stated in the Qur'an. [8:39, 9:29]  

proper Islamic teaching

    Islamic teaching consists of the Qur'an, Sunnah, Sira & Fiqh, exactly what they are teaching now: the 'religious obligation' to hate & exterminate Jews and conquer the entire world.  Anything that contradicts the Qur'an & Sunnah will not be accepted, it will be rejected as bida.

    The next coprolite incorporates the questioner's false premise which is included and italicized.

How do you balance recognition of expression of religious freedom and prevention of radicalism, especially in grass-roots education?

We need to promote a culture of peace and of tolerance.

While we speak about freedom of religion, we must address issues of tolerance to respect diversity.

religious freedom

    The right to practice one's religion is restricted to Muslims. Where Allah's writ runs, Jews & Christians are forbidden to build or maintain houses of worship, display crosses, ring bells, pray aloud in public and hold public processions & funerals.  They are not permitted to own or carry weapons, use saddles or testify in court  against a Muslim.

    The practice of Islam involves obedience to Allah & emulation of Moe. It is inseverable, not a la carte. Allah commanded: "fight them until". Jihad is an integral part of the practice of Islam. It can not be ignored, neither can it be stricken from the Qur'an. Believers fight in Allah's cause, killing others and being killed. [9:111] This little sample of fiqh may help you to comprehend the fatal fact.

culture of peace and of tolerance

    As already demonstrated, peace & tolerance are polar opposites of Islam. They won't fit and can't be forced.

Of course, there is the insurgency in southern Thailand, but there needs transnational elements before the UN can get involved. Internal terrorism is not our issue.

transnational elements

    The insurgency in southern Thailand is Islamic. Islam is transnational, it crosses borders freely. U.N. bureaucrats are neither intelligent enough nor honest enough to acknowledge that fact.

fighting terror

    Terror is a psychological condition, imposed as a battle tactic for the purpose of rendering a victim incapable of mounting an effective defense.  When stung by a wasp, do you settle for killing the offending wasp?  No, you destroy the nest so that you will not be stung again.  Islam is the source of terrorism. Allah said "I will cast terror".  Allah commanded Muslims to maximize the strength of their army to "strike terror" in their enemies. Allah cast terror, resulting in the death, enslavement and dispossession of local Jewish settlements. Moe bragged that: "I have been made victorious with terror".

    It is not possible to fight terror, you must fight its source: Islam. Believers are motivated by Allah's promise of eternity in the celestial bordello and threat of eternity in the fire.  So long as there are Islamic believers , there will be terrorism.  You have three choices:

  1. make them stop believing
  2. make them stop breathing
  3. suffer continued torment and eventual defeat & enslavement.

Esposito's Question & My Answer

On August 27, John Esposito uttered and the On Faith Panel of  News Week & The Washington Post published  Is Islam a primary driver or cause of terrorism? which attracted my attention while I read an article by Jordan Sekulow:  Imam Rauf should apologize. While I generally agree with Sekulow, I admit that an apology from the Imam would not alter my attitude, even if I thought it to be sincere.  Nor would I be satisfied by relocation of the Park 51 project.

    I skimmed Esposito's article and discovered a spew of al-Taqiyya which deserves refutation. As is my habit, I will quote the most egregious passages and let those who want to read the  entire article use the link above.


"Islam, like all world religions, neither supports nor requires illegitimate violence." [Emphasis added.]

illegitimate violence

    Allah, through his conquest imperatives, legitimatizes  aggression.  Is it legitimate  to wage war because your intended victim does not share your beliefs & ritual practices?  Surah Al-Anfal 38 identifies "those who have disbelieved"  as the target of violence commanded in the next verse :  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... .  The explicit casus belli is disbelief.  Allah & his slaves think that is legitimate, do you?

    In Surah At-Taubah, Allah commands Muslims to fight  Jews & Christians until they are subjugated and make annual extortion payments called jizya.
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 disbelief a legitimate casus belli?  You be the judge.  In my opinion, John Esposito practiced kitman to convey a false impression. 
 
"The Quran does not advocate or condone terrorism."

Quran does not advocate  terrorism

    That is not what Allah said. In Surah  Al-Imran 3:151. We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve, because they joined others in worship with Allâh, for which He had sent no authority; their abode will be the Fire and how evil is the abode of the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong­doers).  What did Allah say he would do?  That could be a reference to the afterlife, is it? Here is the answer from Tafsir Al-Jalalayn. "We will cast terror (read ru‘b or ru‘ub) into the hearts of the disbelievers: after departing from Uhud they resolved to return in order to exterminate the Muslims, but they were terrified and did not return;..."

    Islam does not get off so easily, the reference is temporal, not eterna. In Surah Al Anfal, Allah again says that he will cast terror.  8:12. (Remember) when your Lord inspired the angels, "Verily, I am with you, so keep firm those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes."

      Yeah, right, Allah issued the command to the angels; so why was he reminding  his companions of  the command?  Obviously it was something he wanted them to do.  Examine verse 57 carefully. 8:57. So if you gain the mastery over them in war, punish them severely in order to disperse those who are behind them, so that they may learn a lesson.  The meaning reaches full clarity in the light of  Surah Al-Hashr 2.

 59:2. He it is Who drove out the disbelievers among the people of the Scripture (i.e. the Jews of the tribe of Banî An-Nadîr) from their homes at the first gathering. You did not think that they would get out. And they thought that their fortresses would defend them from Allâh! But Allâh's (Torment) reached them from a place whereof they expected it not, and He cast terror into their hearts, so that they destroyed their own dwellings with their own hands and the hands of the believers. Then take admonition, O you with eyes (to see).     Allah terrorized the Bani An-Nadir so that they destroyed their own settlement, so you should take admonition.  Learn a lesson : take admonition. Get it?  By what agency did Allah cast terror?  Verse 13 has a clue for you.  59:13. Verily, you (believers in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) are more awful as a fear in their (Jews of Banî An-Nadîr) breasts than Allâh. That is because they are a people who comprehend not (the Majesty and Power of Allâh).
    The Jews were  more afraid of Moe's army than of Allah.  Ain't that the general idea?  Examine Abdullah Yusuf Ali's translation of 8:60.  Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies, of God and your enemies, and others besides, whom ye may not know, but whom God doth know. Whatever ye shall spend in the cause of God, shall be repaid unto you, and ye shall not be treated unjustly. [Emphasis added.]
    Maximize your army to strike terror.  Got that clue yet?  

"As with other faiths, a radical fringe distorts and misinterprets mainstream and normative Islamic doctrines and laws."

distorts and misinterprets

    What did Allah command Muslims to do?  What did Moe and his "rightly guided caliphs" do?  Just how did Islam expand to rule  all of Arabia, northern Africa,  southern Europe and nearly half of Asia?  Sahih Bukhari's books of  Jihad, Khumus & Expedition have some clues for you.  Sure, there is an injunction against suicide.  There is a difference between wasting your death and killing Jews or pagans.  Get a clue.  The phrase "fought until he was killed"  occurs in several ahadith. Sunan Abu Dawud 14.2567, Sahih Muslim 19.4413, 20.4678,4679,4681,4683.
"They pay no attention to Islamic law which draws on the Quran to set out clear guidelines for the conduct of war and provides no support for hijacking and hostage taking."

no support for  hostage taking

    A search of Hilali & Khan's Noble Qur'an turned up ten matching Surahs for "ransom".  Most of them are not relevant, but one is particularly relevant.
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.

    The parenthetical expressions come from tafsirs used in the translation.  Allah reprimanded Moe for not killing enough of the enemy because he wanted ransom money.   Tafsir Al-Jalalayn makes matters abundantly clear.  "The following was revealed when they ransomed those taken captive at Badr: It is not for any Prophet to have (read as an takÅ«na lahu or an yakÅ«na lahu) prisoners until he has made slaughter in the land, going all the way in fighting disbelievers. You, O believers, desire the transient things of this world, its ephemeral gains, by ransoming, while God desires, for you, the Hereafter, that is, its reward, through your killing them; and God is Mighty, Wise: this was abrogated by His words [and set them free] afterward either with grace or by ransom [Q. 47:4]."     Surah Muhammad 4, as mentioned in the tafsir, reinforces the concept beyond all doubt.  47:4. So, when you meet (in fight Jihâd in Allâh's Cause), those who disbelieve smite at their necks till when you have killed and wounded many of them, then bind a bond firmly (on them, i.e. take them as captives). Thereafter (is the time) either for generosity (i.e. free them without ransom), or ransom (according to what benefits Islâm), until the war lays down its burden. Thus [you are ordered by Allâh to continue in carrying out Jihâd against the disbelievers till they embrace Islâm (i.e. are saved from the punishment in the Hell-fire) or at least come under your protection], but if it had been Allâh's Will, He Himself could certainly have punished them (without you). But (He lets you fight), in order to test you, some with others. But those who are killed in the Way of Allâh, He will never let their deeds be lost,
    Moe was given permission to release captives for ransom after he had killed a sufficient number.
"Islam's relationship to violence and terrorism, as well as the primary causes of global terrorism, are often concealed and confused by the religious language and symbolism that extremists use."

Islam's relationship to violence and terrorism

    What is that relationship, if not that which is revealed in the Qur'an & hadith?  What texts do the "extremists" quote?

causes of global terrorism

    Islamic doctrine. Not poverty, not repression, not occupation, not ignorance, not illiteracy; Islamic doctrine. What did Allah command them to do?  What did Moe do?  The objective is accumulating   "good deeds"  to weigh against their sins on judgment day. If one does not die in battle, his sins are weighed against his "good deeds".   Allah has a clue for you in Surah At-Taubah 120, I will emphasize the crucial clause for clarity.  9:120. It was not becoming of the people of Al-Madinah and the bedouins of the neighbourhood to remain behind Allâh's Messenger (Muhammad  when fighting in Allâh's Cause) and (it was not becoming of them) to prefer their own lives to his life. That is because they suffer neither thirst nor fatigue, nor hunger in the Cause of Allâh, nor they take any step to raise the anger of disbelievers nor inflict any injury upon an enemy but is written to their credit as a deed of righteousness. Surely, Allâh wastes not the reward of the Muhsinûn

    Muslims earn Brownie points by angering or injuring disbelievers.  That is the cause of terrorism.


"Religiously legitimated violence adds divine, authority that increases a terrorist leader's authority as well as moral justification, obligation, certitude, and heavenly reward, all of which enhance recruitment and a willingness to fight and die in a "sacred struggle." "

Religiously legitimated violence

    The most effective lies have a little sliver of truth mixed in to disguise them. That last quote is exemplary.  I already detailed the religious legitimation.  The obligation is fard al-kifaya, outlined in Reliance of the Traveller, o9.1.  The minimum requirement is one attack per year. The word reward occurs in 60 surahs.  Surah As-Saff 12 mentions the reward for participation in jihad. 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. To see their reward, begin reading at 56:10.
