Myth vs Fact-Part 163

Myth	Fact
Islam: Religion of peace.	Abu Dawud Book 19, Number 2996: Narrated Muhayyisah: The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: If you gain a victory over the men of Jews, kill them. So Muhayyisah jumped over Shubaybah, a man of the Jewish merchants. He had close relations with them. He then killed him. At that time Huwayyisah (brother of Muhayyisah) had not embraced Islam. He was older than Muhayyisah. When he killed him, Huwayyisah beat him and said: O enemy of Allah, I swear by Allah, you have a good deal of fat in your belly from his property.

Myth vs Fact-Part 162

Myth	Fact
Islam: Religion of peace.	Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 280: Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri: When the tribe of Bani Quraiza was ready to accept Sad's judgment, Allah's Apostle sent for Sad who was near to him. Sad came, riding a donkey and when he came near, Allah's Apostle said (to the Ansar), "Stand up for your leader." Then Sad came and sat beside Allah's Apostle who said to him. "These people are ready to accept your judgment." Sad said, "I give the judgment that their warriors should be killed and their children and women should be taken as prisoners." The Prophet then remarked, "O Sad! You have judged amongst them with (or similar to) the judgment of the King Allah."

Breaking and Entering--Worth Repeating

Another HT to my friend Bonnie:

Breaking and Entering:

A lady wrote the best letter to the editor in ages!!! It explains things better than all the baloney you hear on TV.

Her point:

Recently, large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration.

Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely.

Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.

Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist I leave.

But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and done the laundry and swept the floors. I've done all the things you don't like to do. I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house).

According to the protesters:

You are REQUIRED to let me stay in your house. You are REQUIRED to add me to your family's insurance plan. You are REQUIRED to educate my children. You are REQUIRED to provide other benefits to me & to my family (my husband will do all of your yard work because he is also hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part).

If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim MY RIGHT to be there (in your house I broke into).

It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do and I'm just trying to better myself. I'm a hard-working and honest person, except for, well, you know, I did break into your house.

And what a deal it is for me!!!

I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused of cold, uncaring, selfish, prejudiced and bigoted behavior.

Oh yeah, I DEMAND that you learn MY LANGUAGE!!! so you can communicate with me.

Why can't people see how ridiculous this is?! Only in America .

Stop the ACLU! Weekly Roundup 11/18-11/24/2007

A little late with the roundup due to the holidays; as usual, Jay at Stop the ACLU! has some excellent articles about the insanity that is the ACLU.

Articles:

Why No Push for Duncan Hunter?
This is a question that has been running through my brain for a little while now. I finally published my thoughts on it, and would like to get other input.

"Get Osama" is Prohibited Speech in New York (of All Places)!
Apparantely patriotic speech expressing the hope that we defeat our enemy falls under the category of derogatory twoards another religion and therefore isn't as protected in New York. Think we could get the ACLU on this case?

Feds Teach Firefighters to Spot Terrorists, ACLU NOT Happy!
As usual, the ACLU are up and arms over firefighters being used as lookouts for terrorism. They pull out their usual disgusting "privacy concern" card.

Firefighters in major cities are being trained to take on a new role as lookouts for terrorism, raising concerns of eroding their standing as American icons and infringing on people's privacy.

Unlike police, firefighters and emergency medical personnel don't need warrants to access hundreds of thousands of homes and buildings each year, putting them in a position to spot behavior that could indicate terrorist activity or planning.

But there are fears that they could lose the faith of a skeptical public by becoming the eyes of the government, looking for suspicious items such as building blueprints or bomb-making manuals or materials.

ACLU Halts Bible Donations in North Carolina Elementary Schools
Yet another chapter in the ACLU's war against the Gideons. They are definitley splitting hairs on this one.

Ron Paul on the Issue of Medical Marijuana
Remember when Mitt Romney walked away from the medical marijuana patient in the wheelchair? Don't get me wrong, Mitt answered the kid's question and went on to being a politician. It did come across kinda cold though. Anyway, that kid seems to be making his rounds to other candidates. He asked a similar question to Ron Paul, who had quite a different answer and reaction.
