Radarsite vs. The Muslim Brotherhood: Small Battles in the Big War

A note from Radarsite: On October 5 we had the pleasure of posting another edition of Gary Fouse's always exciting Fouse Reports, Muslim Brotherhood to Appear at UC Irvine. Below I have reposted the first comment we received at Radarsite to this article and my response. Interestingly, according to my Statcounter, during this entire exchange, we were being visited by an ISP address in Egypt, the home of the Muslim Brotherhood. I have listed the ISP below. Although Gary Fouse's confrontation with the detestable MB was in person, Radarsite's follow up battle was in conducted in cyberspace. Nonetheless, as I think you will agree, these small battles are all part of the same great war. I hope my readers find these latest confrontations enlightening. - rg

I am afraid to inform you that the goal of the Muslim Brotherhood or of any Muslim is not to creat a global Islamic world! Islam gives the right to Christians and Jews to live among Moslems! When are you going to stop attacking Islam without reading or studying it? When are you going to stop spreading fear? When are you going to stop hating something you dont even know!

To Anonymous -- I have decided not to delete this comment of yours because I want to call you a liar in public. Just who the hell do you think you're talking to? Some illiterate nincompoop?
I have been studying history probably longer than you have been alive. In my heavily annotated copy of the Koran there are 434 pages. Of these 434 pages, 288 pages contain some form of usually quite graphic violence or threats of violence invariably aimed at the apostates or infidels or Jews. I have read literally hundreds of the Hadiths and Sira and the accompanying texts and enough Islamic literature to make me sick to my stomach. Your bloodthirsty cult drips of hatred and revenge and intolerance. Your only hope in this world is that people won't see it for what it is.

And, yes, I am spreading hatred, hatred for your abysmal cult of death and all that it stands for and all of the misery it has brought to every land it has touched.Your sacred Mohammed is an abomination, a criminal, a child molester and a murderer. His so-called religion is nothing but a cult of warfare and rapine.You abhor the world of freedom and truth, and so you despise the West.You live in insane fear of the power of women and the wickedness of the Other. All who are not believers are to be treated as either second class citizens or enemies. You have slithered into our midst like a serpent and you are just as deadly. Your only hope of survival here lies with those gullible liberal fools who do not know you.

You have made a strategic blunder by coming onto this site and attempting to preach your lies. We know better here. Here you will find no gullible fools, but people who have done their homework and who have learned to despise you and everything you stand for. Don't come back here again or I will delete you the next time. You are not welcome here. This site is devoted to your ruin.

Well said Roger. This person is either ignorant of the true nature of Islam or a member of the MB and trying to convince you that they are peaceful and benign. The major cause of terrorism in the world for the past 50 years has been Islam and Jihad.It is time for people to wake up and smell the coffee. The threat is real and here in the US.

"...The goal of the Muslim Brotherhood or of any Muslim is not to creat a global Islamic world!"8:39 commands war on Pagans until only Allah is worshipped "alltogether and everywhere". [Abdullah Yusuf Ali]9:29 commands war on Jews & Christians until they are subjugated and pay extortion. 9:33 It is He Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islâm), to make it superior over all religions even though the Mushrikûn (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh) hate (it). Carefully examine 13:41 See they not that We gradually reduce the land (of disbelievers, by giving it to the believers, in war victories) from its outlying borders. And Allâh judges, there is none to put back His Judgement and He is Swift at reckoning.And 14:15 But they (the Messengers) sought victory and help [from their Lord (Allâh)], and every obstinate, arrogant dictator (who refuses to believe in the Oneness of Allâh) was brought to a complete loss and destruction.***"Islam gives the right to Christians and Jews to live among Moslems!"Islam first conquers them! Islam attacks, conquers, subjects its victims to dhimmitude; less than second class citizenship. ***"When are you going to stop spreading fear?"When Is Islam going to stop casting terror? I refer to 3:151 & 8:12, ratified by 33:26 and confirmed by Bukhari4.52.220 . We hate Islam precisely because we know it; because we have read its canon of scripture, tradition, exegeses & jurisprudence; we recognize pure, unmitigated evil when we see it. We know how Hindu Kush got its name. We want no part of it. anonymous is a piker; an amateur apologist for 'slime. I have taken on two of his betters: Masood Khan & Hemayet Udden, OIC Ambassadors. You can witness their deliaring at Islamophobia Exposed: Exposing Malicious Malarkey.

The MB was founded by Hassan al-Banna. Read what he wrote: The Way of Jihad and curse Islam!He also wrote this: By jihad, I mean that divinely ordained obligation which is reflected in the following saying of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and which Muslims are to carry out until the Day of Judgement:‘Whoever dies without struggling in the Way of Allah, or wishing to do so, dies a Pre Islamic Jahiliya death.’Its weakest degree is the heart's abhorrence of evil. and its highest degree is fighting in the Way of Allah. Between these two degrees are numerous forms of jihad, including struggling with the tongue, pen, or hand, and speaking a word of truth to a tyrannical ruler.This call (to Islam) cannot survive without Jihad. The more lofty and far reaching the call, the greater the struggle in its path. The price required to support it is huge, but the reward given to its upholders is more generous.‘And strive in the Way of Allah as you ought to.’(Surat-al-Hajj (22), ayah 78)http://www.youngmuslims.ca/online_library/books/tmott/There is one and only one thing to be said to Allah and his slaves: Go to Hell and be damned.

Islam: Religion of peace.	Malik's Muwatta Book 9, Number 9.18.56: Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Humayd ibn Abd ar-Rahman ibn Awf from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Whoever hands over two of any type of property in the way of Allah is called to the Garden, with the words 'O slave of Allah! This is good!' Whoever is among the people of prayer, is called from the gate of prayer. Whoever is among the people of jihad is called from the gate of jihad. Whoever is among the people of sadaqa, is called from the gate of sadaqa. Whoever is among the people of fasting, is called from the gate of the well-watered. (Bab ar-Rayyan)." Abu Bakr as-Siddiq said, "Messenger of Allah! Is it absolutely necessary that one be called from one of these gates? Can someone be called from all of these gates?" He said, "Yes, and I hope you are among them ."

October in New England: Conflicting Signs, Competing Realities

This town where I live, this quintessential small New England village is beautiful in the Fall. Sometimes I forget how beautiful. Yesterday was a crisp clean October afternoon. It was Saturday and I was driving through town to get my groceries for the weekend. I was away from my computer and out into the real world. Comforted by the surprise of the cool fresh air and the reassuring solidity of this unchanging historical reality which surrounds me. Clean white wood frame houses, tall slender church steeples rising up into a cloudless blue sky. And then there are the people, some of them my friends, up on ladders, painting their houses, in their yards raking leaves or playing with the kids. I wave at some of them as I pass and they wave back. Joggers jogging, lost in their zone. Young lovely mothers pushing baby carriages, thinking about the future.

I forgot how beautiful it all is. How beautiful and powerful and overwhelming this particular reality can be. I'm on my way to the store and I'm driving through this great undeniable reality, and I am comforted by its immutability.

There is of course another reality, an alternative reality, a competing reality, that not-so-reassuring reality I left behind me on my computer. And it seems so far behind me now, so foreign to this glorious day, so infinitely removed from this crisp bright Saturday afternoon. I comfort myself with the thought that that other reality I left behind me is nothing more than a virtual reality, an insubstantial two-dimensional reality, that exists only on my computer screen or in my overwrought imagination. It's not a real reality like the one I'm out in now. It has not the same weight nor credibility of this sumptuous October afternoon in New England. I am temporarily comforted by this thought. I think about those dark, looming existential threats that I left back home on that now-darkened computer screen, and they seem as inconsequential and amorphous as children's fantasies, as foolish and spooky as Halloween ghosts. What power do they have here? I ask myself. What have these hypothetical specters of creeping sharia and pending Socialistic doom to do with this real tangible world I see around me now? Do these people who I pass on my way to the store look frightened or vulnerable? If I stopped and asked one of them if they were living in fear of al Qaeda right now, what would they answer? If I stopped and asked that man who is raking leaves in his front yard if he's worried about America losing its national sovereignty or the encroachment os Islam into our Judeo/Christian culture, what would he say? These are the normal people living in their normal world. That alternative reality is as absurd and out-of-place here as a Transylvanian vampire.

I take in a deep breath of New England air and smile. I feel better now. I'm back in the real reality. It's a beautiful day and I'm on my way to the store to get groceries for the weekend and I'm happy and healthy and I'm not in any pain, and that other reality is as faraway and impotent as some old movie I saw long ago. To waste my life worrying about the threats from that other reality is as foolhardy as wasting my life worrying about being abducted by UFOs.

But then I start seeing the signs. Just one or two at first. Then more and more of them, until they seem to be everywhere. They are the signs of Obama. And they are from that other reality I thought I had left behind but hadn't. And my Saturday afternoon is suddenly not so pleasant anymore, not quite so invulnerable as it was just a minute ago. I had asked myself, How could all this that I see out my window, how could all this great American reality actually change? And the answer is in the signs. How many people in how many different worlds looked around them in history and asked these same great questions? How could all this change? It is incomprehensible.

Then I see another little sign, tacked up on a telephone pole. An innocuous little sign, weather beaten and torn at the edges -- it's been up there for quite a while now. "No room in this town for hate" it reads. And I shudder to myself. This is the sign that advertises our vulnerabilities and our weaknesses. This is what makes this beautiful little town of mine so friendly and pleasant and so blind to the steady encroachment of that other less friendly reality. We have no room here for hate. And without hate we are vulnerable to those who hate us. We are, this sign proclaims, a community determined to be tolerant and just. We are fair-minded and trusting. We don't just welcome the Other into our midst, we eagerly embrace them. And if you are different than us, we say, if your culture is different than ours, and if your values are different from ours, no matter, we will embrace you just the same. Our survival is secondary to our tolerance.

It occurs to me that these different signs are all coming from the same places, these Obama signs and these 'no hate' signs. They were put up by the same people. They are making the same statement and they are proud of their statement. They want the world to know that we care, that we recognize our culpability in the evils that have beset mankind and this great green planet of ours, and we are going to make amends. We are going to change. You just wait and see.

These are the competing realities that are fighting for the dominance of my soul on this beautiful Saturday afternoon. I am in the world of the reality of the normal people for a little while, and sometimes I feel so out of place, my bleak alarmist pessimism seems as fantastic and incongruous here in this bright sunlight as that misplaced Transylvanian vampire. If only I could stay in this reality forever...

Every Day Heroes

Meet Staff Sgt. Jo Turner AND Spc. Cheryl Ivanov:

The Story:

When Staff Sgt. Turner and Spc. Ivanov first deployed to Afghanistan as combat medics attached to an Afghan National Army (ANA) brigade, they had a hard time earning respect -- especially from Afghan soldiers, who had never seen women in combat before. Yet all that changed as they proved themselves time and again during high-risk missions and during life-saving operations in the midst of battle.

During one patrol, Kandak soldiers were ambushed by insurgents; without hesitation, Turner, who was driving a Humvee for embedded trainers, drove her vehicle directly into the firefight while another soldier manned the weapon in the turret and helped cut off the enemy’s direct line of fire. In another incident, the team responded to an attack on a nearby Kuchi camp. Upon arrival, they saw that instead of hitting the intended American base, insurgents had hit the camp instead, wounding and killing several civilians. Turner and Ivanov quickly began providing medical care to the civilians despite the rockets still crashing down in the area.

Besides providing medical support for the ANA, Afghan police, and U.S. personnel during missions, Turner and Ivanov serve as mentors to ANA healthcare providers and conduct classes for Kandak medics. They also serve in a humanitarian role by coordinating medical assistance for Afghans in nearby villages - an opportunity to make friends with locals and gather intelligence, which has led to actionable information. Ivanov and Turner have both earned Combat Medical Badges for their work under fire. ( here and here)

And in a National Guard story:

Breaking gender barriers in war:

Female combat medics earn respect from Afghan Army

By 1st Lt. Amanda Straub
41st Brigade Combat Team

GARDEZ, Afghanistan (1/26/2007) – Oregon Army National Guard Staff Sgt. Jo Turner, and Spc. Cheryl Ivanov have found a niche in a "Good Ol’ Boys’ Club" while serving in Afghanistan.

Turner, from Springfield, Ore., and Ivanov, from Coos Bay, are female combat medics deployed with Oregon’s 41st Brigade Combat Team. They are attached to the Afghan National Army’s (ANA) 3rd Infantry Kandak, 1st Brigade, 203rd Corps. They provide medical support during missions.

Both women have earned Combat Medical Badges because of their work under fire. They drive armored Humvees for the embedded trainers assigned to the 3rd Kandak during patrols and provide medical support to the ANA, Afghan police, U.S. military personnel and civilians.

Turner and Ivanov also mentor ANA healthcare providers and conduct classes for Kandak medics. They say that because they are women, it was a challenge to earn the respect as an embedded trainer among the Afghan soldiers....

This really IS a great write-up, and you can find the rest on these two Every Day Heroes here.

Thank YOU, Staff Sgt. Turner and Spc. Ivanov for your service.
