Trifecta of NoVa Jihad

2010-12-15T08:15:00.000-08:00

What is going on? Where are these muslims getting this jihad stuff anyway...oh wait, the Koran, the Hadiths, the Saudis, the Muslim Brootherhood...that's right.

So we've got: Facebook Jihadi+MetroBomber+Dulles Grand Theft Jihadi=Xmas Unholy Trinity. Add in the Charm City recent revert to Islam and you've got 4 times the trouble in greater DC area...must be something in the water.

Breakdown is as follows:
Facebook Jihadi: Awais Younis, an Afghan, also known as Sundullah "Sunny" Ghilzai and Mohannme Khan, allegedly described how to build a pipe bomb that could maximize casualties on the Washington Metrorail, according to a December 6 criminal affidavit. Key themes: Afghan, Muslim, Metro.

MetroBomber: And in October, authorities charged Farooque Ahmed, 34, of Ashburn with conspiring with people he thought to be al-Qaeda operatives to bomb the Arlington Cemetery, Pentagon City, Crystal City and Court House Metro stations.The operatives were actually working with the FBI. Key themes: Pakistani, Muslim, Metro

Grand Theft Jihadi: Have one look at Muslim Muhammad Teshale, and you already know it’s jihad. There’s no way this guy’s multiple hit and run accidents on I-66, yesterday morning, were an “accident” because he caused at least SIX separate accidents, while driving a shuttle at Washington Dulles International Airport. And looking at the photo you gotta ask what the hell a jihadi looking person like this is doing as a licensed, employed airport shuttle. Um, helloooooo . . .? And the guy reportedly did this “to become famous.” Yeah, “famous” to allah and the Arab street. Hey, just like the 9/11 hijackers, also “famous.” He was shuttling no passengers, and drove as fast as he could during rush hour traffic, at a time when he knew he could cause the most accidents and injure the most people. If this isn’t highway jihad, what is? Teshale is replete with halal beard and all. Key themes: Muslim, Transit
Make sure you click on the link to see his photo: shaved head, full beard, super short mustache, just like Mohammed.

So lets play security manager: Devoted Muslim: Give him a van, access to the airport, and lots of captive passengers. New mom with breastmilk: photograph naked and/or grope. Man with bladder bag: photograph naked and/or group. etc...

Cracker jack work, gold star for Dulles, the TSA, and cowards who refuse to openly address the violence inherent in Islam. Bottom line, the US has adopted a strategy of "Its safer for my career to risk lives than be sued." We are moving downhill at warp speed. Beam me up.

Border Security: Ground Truth and Solutions

2010-11-17T07:36:00.000-08:00

Interested in border security follow the links in the story below:
After watching the security situation on our southern border deteriorate to the point where the United States was now under the direct threat of the narco-insurgency destroying Mexico, I decided to put together an organization called SAFE (Secure America Forever) to help counter the threat.

As part of SAFE’s Information Division I began posting about the border here on Big Peace and Big Government. The first piece was called “American Rancher X, Part 1 & Part 2“.

Also as part of SAFE’s Information Division, we at SAFE decided to launch a documentary series called “SAFE On The Border”. Below is the first episode, “Cartel Sniper/Observation Posts On The U.S. Side Of The Border”.

One Hundred Naked Citizens: One Hundred Leaked Body Scans

2010-11-17T07:22:00.000-08:00

We have the technology, we can make porn from them.

From gizmodo.com
At the heart of the controversy over "body scanners" is a promise: The images of our naked bodies will never be public. U.S. Marshals in a Florida Federal courthouse saved 35,000 images on their scanner. These are those images.

A Gizmodo investigation has revealed 100 of the photographs saved by the Gen 2 millimeter wave scanner from Brijot Imaging Systems, Inc., obtained by a FOIA request after it was recently revealed that U.S. Marshals operating the machine in the Orlando, Florida courthouse had improperly-perhaps illegally-saved images of the scans of public servants and private citizens.

We understand that it will be controversial to release these photographs. But identifying features have been eliminated. And fortunately for those who walked through the scanner in Florida last year, this mismanaged machine used the less embarrassing imaging technique.

Yet the leaking of these photographs demonstrates the security limitations of not just this particular machine, but millimeter wave and x-ray backscatter body scanners operated by federal employees in our courthouses and by TSA officers in airports across the country. That we can see these images today almost guarantees that others will be seeing similar images in the future. If you're lucky, it might even be a picture of you or your family.

While the fidelity of the scans from this machine are of surprisingly low resolution, especially compared to the higher resolution "naked scanners" using the potentially harmful x-ray backscatter technology, the TSA and other government agencies have repeatedly touted the quality of "Advanced Imaging Technology" while simultaneously assuring customers that operators "cannot store, print, transmit or save the image, and the image." According to the TSA—and of course other agencies—images from the scanners are "automatically deleted from the system after it is cleared by the remotely located security officer." Whatever the stated policy, it's clear that it is trivial for operators to save images and remove them for distribution if they choose not to follow guidelines or that other employees could remove images that are inappropriately if accidentally stored.

To the point, these sample images were removed from the machine in Orlando by the U.S. Marshals for distribution under the FOIA request before the machine was sent back to its manufacturer—images intact.

We look forward to seeing your next vacation photos.

Peaceful Muslims Strike Again

2010-11-16T13:51:00.000-08:00

Perhaps they are reading more the Medina suras...
CAIRO-- Muslims set fire overnight to at least 10 houses belonging to Coptic Christians in a village in southern Egypt over rumors that a Christian resident had an affair with a Muslim girl, security officials said Tuesday.

The officials said security forces have sealed off the village of al-Nawahid, in Qena province some 290 miles south of Cairo, to prevent the violence from spreading to neighboring towns. They said several people were arrested.

The attacks started after locals spotted a young Copt and a Muslim girl together at night inside the village cemetery, the officials said. They added that both were put under police custody as authorities investigate.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to speak to the media.

Clashes between Christians and Muslims occasionally occur in southern Egypt, mostly over land or disputes over church construction. But sectarian tensions have also been on the rise recently in the capital.

Big Sis: Naked Pics, Sex Assault, or Go Home

2010-11-15T06:36:00.000-08:00

You want to fly? Have a stranger take a naked picture of you, have a stranger touch you in a way that would normally get someone arrested, or stop flying...brilliant strategy. Big Sis confirms these are the options if you want to fly...what does she go through when she wants to fly? And if it ain't good for pilots and crew, then it isn't good enough for us.

Jim Tyner said no to the above, was refused flight, and then threatened with a lawsuit for failing to complete screening after being escorted from the airport. Follow his blog here.

National Opt-Out Day

2010-11-15T06:30:00.000-08:00

Also check out: http://www.pleaseremoveyourshoesmovie.com/
Wednesday, November 24, 2010 is NATIONAL OPT-OUT DAY!
It's the day ordinary citizens stand up for their rights, stand up for liberty, and protest the federal government's desire to virtually strip us naked or submit to an "enhanced pat down" that touches people's breasts and genitals in an aggressive manner. You should never have to explain to your children, "Remember that no stranger can touch or see your private area, unless it's a government employee, then it's OK."

The goal of National Opt Out Day is to send a message to our lawmakers that we demand change. We have a right to privacy and buying a plane ticket should not mean that we're guilty until proven innocent. This day is needed because many people do not understand what they consent to when choosing to fly.

Here are the details:

Who?
You, your family and friends traveling by air on Wednesday, November 24, 2010.

What?
National Opt-Out Day. You have the right to opt-out of the naked body scanner machines (AIT, or Advance Imaging Technology, as the government calls it). All you have to do is say "I opt out" when they tell you to go through one of the machines. You will then be given an "enhanced" pat down. Remember too, as the TSA says, "Everyday is opt-out day." That is, you can opt out any time you fly.

Where?
At an airport near you!

When?
Wednesday, November 24, 2010. We want families to sit around the dinner table, eating turkey, talking about their experience - what constitutes an unreasonable search, how forceful of a pat down will we allow, especially of children, and how much privacy are we will to give up? We hope the experience then propels people to write their Member of Congress and the airlines to demand change.

Why?
The government should not have the ability to virtually strip search anyone it wants. The problem is compounded in that if you do not want to go through the naked body scanner, the government has made the alternative perhaps worse! In an effort to try and make everyone comply with the scanners, the government has instituted "enhanced" pat downs. There are reports from travelers across the country about how the TSA now touches the genitals and private areas of men, women and children in a much more aggressive manner. We do not believe the government has a right to see you naked or aggressively feel you up just because you bought an airline ticket.

How?
By saying "I opt out" when told to go through the bodying imaging machines and submitting to a pat down. Also, be sure to have your pat down by TSA in full public - do not go to the back room when asked. Every citizen must see for themselves how the government treats law-abiding citizens.

NoVa Muslim Arrested On Terror

2010-10-27T11:37:00.000-07:00

I know you'll find this hard to believe, but another Northern Virginia muslim was arrested for planning terror...shocking. Its remarkable how many local muslims are simply misunderstanding the sacred holy peaceful texts of the religion of peace...oh wait, after a thorough review of progressive revelations in the Quran, a review of the Hadiths, and a few hours on Saudi state programming and they seem to have their theology down pretty good: kill, convert, or submit the infidel.

Va man charged in fake bomb plot against DC subway
October 27, 2010

By ALICIA CALDWELL
Associated Press

WASHINGTON - A Virginia man was arrested Wednesday and charged with trying to help people he believed were al-Qaida operatives in planning to bomb subway stations around the nation's capital, the FBI said.

The FBI said the public was never in danger because its agents were aware of the man's activities before the alleged planning took place and monitored him throughout.

Farooque Ahmed, 34, a naturalized citizen born in Pakistan, had been indicted under seal Tuesday in Alexandria, Va., and the indictment was released Wednesday. He was charged with attempting to provide material support to a designated terrorist organization, collecting information to assist in planning a terrorist attack on a transit facility, and attempting to provide material support to carry out multiple bombings to cause mass casualties at Washington-area metro stations. Ahmed lives in Ashburn, Va., outside Washington.

Federal investigators said starting in April Ahmed met several times with people he believed were al-Qaida operatives. During one of those meetings, investigators said, he agreed to watch and photograph a hotel in Washington and a Metro station in Arlington, Va. He also was accused of participating in surveillance, recording video of a subway station in Arlington on four different occasions, and agreeing to get security information about two stations.

Investigators said in a Sept. 28 meeting he gave diagrams of Arlington metro stations to a person he thought was part of al-Qaida and gave suggestions about where to put explosives on trains to kill the most people in simultaneous attacks planned for 2011.

"Today's case underscores the need for continued vigilance against terrorist threats and demonstrates how the government can neutralize such threats before they come to fruition," Assistant Attorney General for National Security David Kris said in a statement after Ahmed's arrest. "Farooque Ahmed is accused of plotting with individuals he believed were terrorists to bomb our transit system, but a coordinated law enforcement and intelligence effort was able to thwart his plans."

Ahmed faces up to 50 years in prison if convicted.

RUN THE ISA OUT OF VIRGINIA

2010-10-12T10:29:00.000-07:00

VAST

RUN THE ISA OUT OF VIRGINIA

We are back where we started with the Islamic Saudi Academy.

The Saudis have dropped their plan to develop the Popes Head Rd. site. The poor state of the economy, increased federal scrutiny of cash transfers from “middle eastern sources” to ISA, skittishness of any commercial lenders to become involved with the ISA extremists and the overall “plum, mad-dog mean” persistence of our opposition halted the radical school’s expansion.

They have feverishly been contacting private schools throughout Northern Virginia and offering huge amounts of cash for already-established schools. Now they are backed into a corner – none of the schools are apparently willing to sell. (Many schools which have been approached contacted VAST and gave us some details of the ISA offers.)

Now, we have the opportunity to make this radical, anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian (to name just a few) bunch homeless. The Board of Supervisors will vote on Oct. 19 on whether or not to renew the lease of the current ISA on Route 1 in South Alexandria. If the Supervisors vote not to renew the lease then the ISA will have to find some new dark corner from which to peddle hate-based violence as it attempts to create a generation of home-grown terrorists. We need to send them packing and we can do that with this single vote.

It is important for a host of reasons but it is most important because it demonstrates that they can’t continue to buy crooked politicians and deceive the gullible into enabling the growth of domestic jihad. It must stop in Virginia and it must stop now.

Please use the attached flyer in your church, synagogue or wherever to help us building the same attendance we had the last time we fought this. This can become the first and most decisive knockout punch to the domestic jihad.

A victory over domestic jihad here in Virginia will energize and mobilize our allies in Tennessee, California, Texas, Minnesota, Florida and elsewhere to continue the struggle against hate-based violence.

All of the Saudi money and oil-based power buys a lot but it doesn’t buy the American people.

Remember the words of that great American Josey Wales:
“Now remember, things look bad and it looks like you’re not gonna make it then you gotta get mean. I mean plum, mad-dog mean… ‘Cause if you lose your head and you live up then you neither live nor win. That’s just the way it is.”

PLEASE REPRINT THE ATTACHED FLYER AND PASS IT ON TO AS MANY AS POSSIBLE.

You Hold the Power to Stop Hate-based Extremism
1. Register to testify
2. Call your supervisor.
3. Come to the hearing on October 19 and be heard.

I can't comment on individuals, but I can tell you we have an effective policy of outreach to members of the Nazi community, and each one said they wouldn't kill more than just a couple jews...oh wait..."

ATTN US Army: West Point Grad Defends CAIR=HAMAS

2010-10-10T22:01:00.000-07:00

The audio trails off at the end, but not before an unconfirmed West Point grad hurls taqqiya. Issue number 1: Is this a budding Maj. Hassan or useful idiot, you decide. Either way, when a military officer attends a CAIR=Hamas dinner and defends it in an interview on camera it is a giant red flag, or perhaps a pre-incident indicator, or a violation of oath of office and uniformed code of military justice. However under this Administration, it should not interfere with his security clearance.

CAIR 16th Annual Banquet

2010-10-09T21:06:00.000-07:00

How much would you pay to know if a Hamas founded organization knew who you were? How about $65? That's the cost of admission to CAIR's 16th annual banquet and fundraiser. Last year, I attended CAIR's 15th annual banquet without incident, but apparently the have judged me as part of the Islamophobia machine, which in different parts of the world is announcing a death sentence.

So this year, I wanted to know if CAIR=Hamas was actually organized enough to follow what they say, because that hasn't always been the case. To get to registration, I walked by the VIP room that was laid out like a tent with cushions, the prayer room, and all sorts of items up for auction. The items up for auction is a new twist that they had not done in the past two years...maybe they're hard up for cash with all their legal troubles.

Also new this year, were the CAIR security and their metal detection handwands. These are really more for show to intimidate anyone that might want to come with an unauthorized recording device.

At registration, were a white non-muslim male and female. This too was new, guess CAIR spread its wings for interns this year. The male looked through the registration sheet, quickly went to see Corey Saylor, and returned. Corey came over, and oh so nicely informed me that they could not accomodate me, that my money had been refunded, and that they had sent me an email. I was somewhat expecting not to get in because I had registered about 4 p.m. the day before. Had that been the end of it, I may have accepted the mysterious cancellation as a polite way of saying I booked too late. But, with CAIR...its never that simple. I had not checked my email before, but they had sent me the following cancellation. Appartently, it took about five hours on the Friday night before a major event to determine I was trouble, which means they probably had me on a standing list of threats that merit a reply from their National Legal Counsel...and fellow defendent.

Dear Mr. ,

Thank you very much for your interest in attending our banquet; unfortunately, we will be unable to accommodate you.

Thank you for your understanding. We have already refunded your ticket price as is evidenced in the attached document.

Best regards,

The delay between Corey's notification and his coming to deliver the news was apparently to notify Marriott security. So Marriott security escorted me out, they never touched me, they also never told me why I needed an escort. Along the walk, the guard had to let another guard and a supervisor know that everything was ok. Apparently, CAIR deemed RFDAH a big security risk...I imagined this is how Chuck Norris must make people feel. I don't fault security, they followed safe practices, its just telling that CAIR has follow through and that it identifed me as such a risk.

For the sake of argument, what could the Ground Mosque Zero developer and a Hamas founded organization say behind closed doors that would be so devistating if it were leaked out...or say entered into Federal prosecution evidence. Oh yeah, lots of things.

I will write another post on the protest outside, getting late. Good job by VAST, was great to see everyone and meet Gellar and Spencer. More later when later is more.

FBI Give Hamas Operative A Tour

2010-09-28T13:21:00.000-07:00

When I tell people that we are losing the war on terror, they look concerned. When I tell them my conclusion has nothing to do with Iraq or Afghanistan, they look confused. Pat Poole, captures a sadly repetitive story, of the US inviting known bad guys (identified as such by Federal Prosecutors), through tours of our most sensitive areas. You cannot defeat an enemy by inviting him into your house, this only confuses your family, not your enemy. We have clearly made a decision not to win....think Gen. Eisenhower would have invited Rommel to inspect his troops before D-Day?

Would you invite this guy into the National Counterterrorism Center?

FBI Escorts Known Hamas Operative Through Top-Secret National Counterterrorism Center as “Outreach” to Muslim Community

Posted by Patrick S. Poole Sep 27th 2010 at 3:52 am in Featured Story, Islamic extremism | Comments (60)

Sheikh Kifah Mustapha (third from left) touring the National Counterterrorism Center (Photo: FBI)

A known Hamas operative and unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terrorism financing trial in U.S. history – Kifah Mustapha – was recently escorted into the top-secret National Counterterrorism Center and other secure government facilities, including the FBI’s training center at Quantico, during a six-week “Citizen’s Academy” hosted by the FBI as part of its “outreach” to the Muslim Community. The group was accompanied by reporter Ben Bradley of WLS-Chicago (ABC), who filed a report on the trip to Washington D.C. on Sunday, who observed:

Sheik Kifah Mustapha, who runs the Mosque Foundation in Bridgeview, asked some of the most pointed questions during the six week FBI Citizens’ Academy and trip to Washington. He pushed agents to fully explain everything from the bureau’s use of deadly force policy to racial and ethnic profiling. “I saw a very interesting side of what the FBI does and I wanted to know more,” Sheik Mustapha explained after returning from D.C. He hopes the FBI’s outreach runs deeper than positive public relations. Yes, I bet he wanted to know everything about the FBI’s policies.

Curiously, Bradley’s report on the Citizen’s Academy fails to make note Mustapha’s extensive terrorist ties and support for Hamas, including his former employment with the Holy Land Foundation, which was listed as a specially designated terrorist group by the U.S. government in December 2001, and whose executives were convicted of terrorism support in 2008 and sentenced to lengthy prison terms. Mustapha was personally named unindicted co-conspirator (#31) in the case and employment records submitted by federal prosecutors during the trial showed that he received more than $154,000 for his work for the Holy Land Foundation between 1996 and 2000. During the trial, FBI Special Agent Lara Burns testified that Mustapha also sang in a band sponsored by the Holy Land Foundation that regularly featured songs dedicated to killing Jews and glorifying Hamas. In a deposition he gave in a civil trial concerned with the murder of a Chicago teenager killed by Hamas while waiting for a bus in Israel, Mustapha admitted that he was the registered agent for the Holy Land Foundation in Illinois, and also to his involvement with other Hamas front groups, including the Islamic Association for Palestine. He was later hired as an imam by the Mosque Foundation in Bridgeview, which the Chicago Tribune reported in 2004 has long been a hotbed of Hamas support.

Bradley’s omission of this information about Kifah Mustapha in his report on Sunday is all the more curious since his own station aired an extensive investigative report of Mustapha’s terrorist ties earlier this year.The WLS investigation into Mustapha’s terrorist ties was prompted by a report published by the Investigative Project on Terrorism in January, which noted that Mustapha had been selected and trained as a chaplain by the Illinois State Police despite his documented terrorist support. The State Police eventually withdrew Mustapha’s appointment as chaplain and just last month he filed a lawsuit against the agency claiming discrimination aided by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, another FBI-identified Hamas front group.

There are several obvious problems with this episode, the first being the FBI’s “outreach” to a known Hamas operative (identified as such by federal prosecutors) and walking him through some of our country’s most sensitive counter-terrorism facilities. Why should terrorist operatives have to covertly case potential targets when the FBI will happily escort them and taken them into areas they would never be able to reach on their own? Who’s next on the FBI’s “outreach” calendar, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his fellow GITMO detainees?

This ongoing “outreach” to terror-linked individuals and leaders of known terrorist front groups by senior leaders of our national security, homeland security and law enforcement agencies is the kind of behavior criticized by my colleagues and I in the Team B II’s report released earlier this month, “Shariah: The Threat to America“. As I observed last week here at Big Peace, Matt Duss of the Center for America Progress and ThinkProgress.org demands that we continue this insane national policy of embracing the same individuals and organizations who have been caught openly cheerleading for Islamic terrorists and have called for the destruction of the U.S. and Western Civilization.

The other glaring problem is that a reporter working in one of the largest media markets in the country can travel to such an event and be unaware of or unwilling to mention his own station’s reporting on his travel partner’s terrorist support activities. Such is the state of the establishment media today.

Shariah: The Threat to America

Center for Security Policy | Sep 13, 2010

This study is the result of months of analysis, discussion and drafting by a group of top security policy experts concerned with the preeminent totalitarian threat of our time: the legal-political-military doctrine known within Islam as "shariah." It is designed to provide a comprehensive and articulate "second opinion" on the official characterizations and assessments of this threat as put forth by the United States government. This study challenges the assumptions underpinning the official line in the conflict with today's totalitarian threat, which is currently euphemistically described as "violent extremism," and the policies of co-existence, accommodation and submission that are rooted in those assumptions.

UPDATE: The Team B II Report, Shariah: The Threat to America, wil be released in early October as a 370-page paperback volume, and will be available to purchase at Amazon.com for $14.00. This official version will include an expanded section on the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) as well as the complete text of the 1991 Muslim Brotherhood document, "An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America,"entered into evidence in the US v Holy Land Foundation trial.

VAST Calls for “Full Disclosure” from Fairfax Supervisors Considering Vote on Radical Saudi Academy’s Lease

Connolly Took Saudi Money While Promoting/Voting on Radical School Lease

A Virginia group has called on members of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors to “fully disclose” donations they have received from groups and individuals with an interest in the October 19 hearing on the renewal of the lease of the radical Islamic Saudi Academy on Route 1.

James Lafferty of the Virginia Anti-Shariah Task Force (VAST) said in a letter to each Supervisor that he was concerned because former Board Chairman Gerry Connolly received numerous contributions to his Congressional campaign as he was shepherding the last ISA lease renewal through the board and attacking opponents.

An Associated Press report on June 17, 2008 stated: “The board’s chairman Gerry Connolly, the Democratic nominee for Congress in Virginia’s 11th District offered a strong defense of the school and accused critics of slander during the meeting in which the lease was approved.”

“Connolly should have recused himself from the process but instead he carried the water for the Islamist radicals and cashed a lot of their checks,” said Lafferty. “Many of the contributions were to his Congressional campaign but , at least, one of them was not reported to the Federal Elections Commission.

“We are asking each Board member to check his/her records and if they have accepted contributions from any entity connected to the ISA and that includes

2-2-2

CAIR, the Islamic Society of North America and any other Islamist groups and any individuals or officials of any of the local mosques, we are asking them to comply with the law and recuse themselves. “

While promoting the last ISA lease renewal in 2008, Connolly received the following support from those with a strong interest in the radical school operated by the Saudi government:

Nihad Awad donated $500 on January 24, 2008. Awad is a founder of CAIR and stated in a 1994 speech in Florida “After I researched the situation inside and outside Palestine, I am in support of the Hamas movement.”

Yaqub Mirza gave $1,000 on January 12, 2008. Mirza is a prominent leader in the Safa group, a radical Islamist operation in Northern Virginia. Congressman Andre Carson (D-Indiana), a Muslim, returned a Mirza donation to his campaign.

Hisham al-Talib gave $1,000 on January 24, 2008. Al Talib is another Safa leader.

Arab-American Leadership PAC, a group funded partially by the radical Muslim Brotherhood, donated $2,000 during the 2008 cycle.

Connolly also received $18,758 from Qorvis Communications in 2006 through 2008, according to published reports. Qorvis represents the Saudi government. Its Washington and Virginia offices were raided by the FBI after the 9/11 attacks. The embassy of the Saudi government is listed as the owner/operator of the ISA.

“Connolly was busy cashing checks and shilling for the Saudis but we didn’t find out about it until after the vote was taken and after he had called the citizen opposition ‘slanderers’ and ‘bigots’.

“Shortly after the vote was taken, Connolly called on the State Department to investigate the ISA. He tried to have it a variety of ways.

“We want to ensure that no other Board member follows his scurrilous example and gets purchased, leased or rented by the Saudis and their radical operatives.”

"Secure the border, and I'll go home."

2010-09-26T05:46:00.001-07:00

The underlying theme behind much of the conservative American frustration with their government is its dereliction of enumerated duties and intrusions into other unauthorized areas. Our government can mandate free men to have health insurance through a perversion of the interstate commerce clause but claims impotency to secure the border which the Constitution expressly states it will do.

Well folks, this is America, and those Americans left, well, they get the job done. These relics of US ascendancy remain an industrious people who surmount challenges to prosper. These Americans remain the bulwark against the passive failures of seductive excuses. In other words, if you won't do it, I will.

When it comes to border security, like many other issues, we expect the border to be secured. That's what borders are for, securing. It is neither optional, nor rational, to force an inanimate object to do something it cannot. You cannot wishfully think a rock into water, nor a border secure. This would be a completely different conversation if we renounced our borders and declared them merely to be gateways, thresholds, or scenic overlooks. So if it must be done, and the government won't do it, well then, the US citizen, which extends authority to the government, will. This article highlights this frustration. An citizen patrolling the border says:

"If they don't like the way I'm doing it, if they don't like me as a person doing it, if they don't like the groups that are coming out, good," Ready said. "Then let's change it. Let's secure the border, and I'll go home."

ISA Lease Renewal Time Again

2010-09-21T13:25:00.000-07:00

Well, it's silly season again, the Islamic Saudi Academy, and all of its rascally loveable quirks (poor tenant, convicted assassins, Jihad textbooks, Sharia compliance, etc...), is up for a renewal of its lease with TerrorFax (Fairfax Co.). Let the Dhimmitude begin!

Blue Ridge Forum

The many Virginia and national voices who have opposed over the last two years Fairfax County leasing its land to the Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia for the operation of the Islamic Saudi Academy (ISA) will have an opportunity on October 19 once more to tell local politicians that they don't want the ISA operating on public land in Fairfax County.

rns_school_01Genuine and continuing transparency of both the curriculum and the practices of the ISA to ensure the school is not an academy for Shariah should be a condition precedent, in our view, to any such rental of Commonwealth land.

"Team B" Shariah Report
Andy McCarthy guides us today to a useful Family Security Matters summary of the Center for Security Policy's new report "Shariah: The Threat to America." (also posted on this site)
Here (p. 85) is pertinent text from the Fairfax County Supervisors September 14 "board package" on the October 19 hearing.

"TIMING:
Board action is requested on September 14, 2010, to provide sufficient time to advertise the proposed public hearing to be held on October 19, 2010, at 5:00 p.m.
BACKGROUND
The Board of Supervisors is the owner of a facility located at 8333 Richmond Highway and identified as Tax Map Numbers 101-4 ((1)) 005A, 101-4 ((1)) 057, 101-4 ((8)) (E) 001, and 101-4 ((7)) 001. The Islamic Saudi Academy has leased the school since 1989 for the operation of a private school. The current lease expires on June 30, 2011, and the Islamic Saudi Academy has requested an extension. Therefore, it is proposed that the County enter into a lease addendum that will permit the Islamic Saudi Academy to continue leasing this site for the period of July 1, 2011, through June 30, 2012.Included in the lease addendum is an option, subject to approval by the County, to extend the lease for two additional one-year periods."

In June of 2008, ABC 7 News reported in its "Head of Virginia Islamic School Arrested; Protesters Demand Shutdown" that –

"The [Fairfax County] board [of Supervisors]'s chairman - Gerry Connolly, the Democratic nominee for Congress in Virginia's 11th District - offered a strong defense of the school and accused critics of slander during the meeting in which the lease was approved.

Connolly did not return calls seeking comment Tuesday. But Keith Fimian, his Republican opponent for the congressional seat, said that because the school is on public land, taxpapers have the right to ensure that the curriculum meets certain criteria.

'From what I know, the board was wrong to renew the lease,' Fimian said."
For background on the whole ISA issue, readers are encouraged to revisit two of our pertinent posts
–May 15, 2010: Will GOP Candidates in Virginia 11 Talk About Islamists?

–August 8, 2008: Our Friends the Saudis and their Fairfax Academy
where we wrote - -
–
"Andrew Cochran here in Counter-Terrorism Blog gives us his current report on the stormy controversy surrounding the Islamic Saudi Academy. We had earlier written about this persistently thorny matter here and here.
Mr.Cochran concludes (but readers should also consider his entire post):
'Yet the State Department and Fairfax County supervisors duck, hide, and punt the issue back and forth, failing to act in the best interests of county citizens and the U.S. This is my seventh post on this issue since May [2008], and I am no more optimistic that they will act than I was in May.'"

Last month we explained in our "Ground Zero Mosque" Previewed in Falls Church Virginia? that–

"Virginia's Republican Representative Frank Wolf, however, has clearly spoken out on such matters — in trying to get light shed on a troubling situation created by Fairfax County's mindless approval of the Islamic Saudi Academy lease and the Academy's subsequent expansion."

The October 19 Fairfax County Board of Supervisors hearing on extending the lease is a sovereign opportunity to insist that the curriculum and teaching practices of the Islamic Saudi Academy be wholly and continually transparent if that school is to be allowed to conduct further operations on land belonging to the Commonwealth.

The two best witnesses to speak to the Fairfax Board in the ISA matter would be 10th District U. S. Representative Frank Wolf and 11th District House of Representatives candidate Keith Fimian.
Their appearance in person at the hearing would concentrate the supervisors' minds wonderfully, and would get across the point that facilitating with public resources any propagating of Shariah is a national concern. For the Shariah costs to the fabric of our society would clearly outweigh whatever rental revenue Fairfax County might receive from the Royal Saudi Embassy.

Take'em Out at The Ball Game

2010-09-21T13:13:00.000-07:00

Though I too believe that the Dave Matthew's Band receives a little too much hype now and then, I've never wanted to bomb them. As a matter of fact, I've never had any inkling or desire, let alone a plan and what I thought to be a working device, to bomb anything. Then again, my belief system doesn't promote the murder of everyone else that isn't in my religion. Hmmm, just another mysterious case of a muslim with a bomb, absolutely no connection to any Islamic theology or organizations. The only interesting parallel is that either drawing Mohammed (Pedophile that he was) or burning the Quaran in reality is as much a weapon of mass destruction as an IED. Instead of shrapnel and concussive force, it is millions of muslims programmed to kill over any insult to their religion of peace.

You all know the story by now. Muslim boys meets explosive, falls into Jihad, and its Harry met C-4 or in this case, Sleepless in Chicago...those Jihadis, tireless romantics.

CHICAGO -- A man arrested for allegedly placing a backpack he thought contained an explosive near Chicago's Wrigley Field also talked about poisoning Lake Michigan, bombing a landmark skyscraper and assassinating Mayor Richard Daley, according to a federal complaint filed Monday.

Sami Samir Hassoun, 22, a Lebanese citizen living in Chicago for about three years, was charged with one count each of attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction and attempted use of an explosive device.

"He wanted to transform the city of Chicago, he wanted to make a statement and he wanted to replace the mayor of Chicago," said FBI Special Agent in Charge Robert Grant. "He was unhappy with the way the city was running. He was also unhappy with things that were happening in other parts of world."

At a brief hearing Monday, Hassoun quietly told U.S. Judge Susan Cox that he understood the charges. Hassoun's federally appointed public defender Dan McLaughlin declined to comment on the case, as did several family members who attended the hearing. A message left on an answering machine at Hassoun's home telephone number wasn't returned.

An FBI informant tipped investigators about Hassoun nearly a year ago, the agency said. Grant said Hassoun acted alone and that the undercover agents told him they were from California and unaffiliated with any group. He declined to offer specific details about Hassoun's motivations, but said he believed the agents were ready to give him money if he carried out the attack.

Hassoun was arrested early Sunday after planting the fake explosive device -- which was given to him by an undercover agent -- in a trash receptacle near Sluggers World Class Sports Bar, a popular bar steps from Wrigley Field, Grant said. The Cubs were not playing at their home field; the stadium hosted Dave Matthews Band concerts Friday and Saturday nights.

The informant befriended Hassoun over the course of a year, conducting conversations in Arabic, which were taped and shared with the FBI. In that time, Hassoun waffled greatly on his plans.

Initially, he didn't want to cause violence, suggesting setting off smoking devices in downtown locations near City Hall, authorities said.

"No killing. There is no killing," he told the informant, according to the complaint.

But his plans became more grand, as he believed bigger acts would command public attention and embarrass the mayor, according to the complaint.

"Little by little, I'm building it up," he said, according to the complaint. "I will shake Chicago."

Hassoun's alleged plots ranged during the investigation. They included talk of plans to unleash a biological virus on Chicago and bombing the Willis Tower, formerly known as the Sears Tower, the complaint said.

Hassoun on one occasion told the informant he wanted to paralyze commerce in the city, according to the complaint. Asked how he intended to carry out various suggested attacks, Hassoun responded, "You park the car, and let it go 'boom,"' the complaint says.

Grant said Hassoun wanted to start his own organization and planned to flee to California after the device went off in Wrigleyville.

"He was not highly skilled, but I think he was definitely desirous of obtaining the material needed to carry out his attack," Grant said.

Shortly before the plot near Wrigley Field, the informant introduced Hassoun to the undercover agents who Hassoun believed were friends and would pay for the attack to be carried out.

Chicago authorities said Daley never was in any danger. Police said Daley -- who has been in China for a business trip -- was informed of the plot over the weekend.

"We were always in control of this investigation," said Chicago Police Superintendent Jody Weis.

There have been other cases involving FBI agents posing as terror operatives and supplying suspects with bogus explosives. Last year, authorities arrested a Jordanian national after he allegedly attempted to detonate what he thought was a bomb outside a Dallas skyscraper.

In an unrelated case, authorities in Springfield, Ill., arrested another man after he allegedly tried he tried to set off what he thought was explosives in a van outside a federal courthouse.

Tax $'s for African Penis Washing

2010-09-14T06:41:00.000-07:00

I don't even know where to begin with this one. Government deficits and a devastated economy are driving our financial system towards collapse. The average American that still has a home is struggling to keep it, and good people are pinching pennies just to get by...what a perfect time to spend $800K in tax dollars educating Africans how to wash their dicks. Lets add that to the $400K NIH spent on studying why men don't like condoms and that's $1.2 million tax dollars spent. The project management term used to describe this result is dick, as in, we got dick. The program management performance metric this program containing multiple such projects is: getting dicked over.

The NIH should be stripped of its budget, and forced to solicit for these projects door to door. We get them all the time, Band fundraisers, Cancer Walks, why not a knock the door for African Penis Washing.

DC Quake Report

I felt the earthquake this morning, but didn’t know what it was, at first I thought, Thermonuclear detonation…its been a good ride, then I thought, this is it, the air conditioner is going to blow…then I got in the shower.

Didn’t know it was an earthquake until I was listening to the radio in the car.

Living next to Terror Target #1 or 2, depending on how you look at it, mushroom clouds blossom in the fertile dark fields that cover the canvas of the back of my head. With this heat though, I'm most glad it wasn't the AC.

WASHINGTON - A 3.6 magnitude earthquake woke the Washington metro region Friday, rattling homes and startling people.

The U.S. Geological Survey says it happened at exactly 5:04:49 a.m. about 3 miles under the earth's surface.

Welcome to Falls Church, Fairfax County, home to the Wahhabi Corridor, the Build America Shopping Center, and the Dar Al-Hijrah 9-11 mosque...come for the halal stay for the jihad. Halalco, the Islamist super-market in the DC area, got caught with its hijab down by CBN selling US most wanted terrorist Anwar Al-Awlaki sermons. When confronted by the reported, management went straight to the playbook lie, deny, then threaten to kill for insulting Islam...well maybe not that last part. Great video. Rest of the story found at CBN here. Sadly, none of this news to the counter-jihad movement here, and as the story states, not to the FBI either.

Fairfax Home To Somlia War Crimes Drama

2010-06-04T08:39:00.000-07:00

Something to ponder. I haven't researched the often conflicting facts that come out African conflicts, but its interesting to know that Fairfax was the chosen land for this to land in. Not surprising given what else we've imported from Somalia. What is funny/interesting, is that in the Fairfax Rte 7 Wahhabi Corridor, Somalis rank at the very bottom of the social structure. And here I thought it was only those of white western European descent that could be racist...somehow my Fairfax County Public Schools multi-cultural days and diversity sensitivity never sensitized me to the Islamic worlds race based social strata.

Ex-Somali official Mohamed Ali Samantar may be sued in U.S., Supreme Court rules

By Robert Barnes
Washington Post Staff Writer
Wednesday, June 2, 2010; A05

A group of Somalis who allege torture and killings by the former government of their homeland may pursue their lawsuit against a former prime minister now living in Fairfax County, the Supreme Court ruled Tuesday.

The justices ruled unanimously that a federal law that protects foreign governments from lawsuits filed in the United States does not cover individuals such as Mohamed Ali Samantar, who was defense minister and prime minister in the 1980s and early 1990s in the now-ousted government of Mohamed Siad Barre.

While Samantar's interpretation of the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act is "literally possible," Justice John Paul Stevens wrote for the court, a close reading "supports the view of respondents and the United States that the Act does not address an official's claim to immunity."

The court warned that its decision was narrow and that Samantar might have other legal claims of immunity when a district court reconsiders the suit. "Whether petitioner [Samantar] may be entitled to immunity under common law, and whether he may have other valid defenses to the grave charges against him, are matters to be addressed" by lower courts, Stevens wrote.

But the legal organization that represented those who sued Samantar said the decision gives teeth to the remedy Congress supplied to let victims recover damages from those who have moved to the United States after committing human rights violations in their home countries.

"Faced with a choice between accountability and immunity, the Supreme Court squarely came down in favor of accountability," said Pamela Merchant, executive director of the Center for Justice and Accountability in San Francisco. "Congress passed the Torture Victims Protection Act because they did not want torturers who have committed serious human rights crimes to seek safe haven in the United States. The Supreme Court's decision means that the U.S. will not serve as a safe haven."

Lawyers for Samantar and some members of the diplomatic corps had argued to the court that a decision in favor of Bashe Yousef and four other Samantar accusers could have powerful foreign policy implications, and could open U.S. officials to lawsuits in foreign courts.

The case is Samantar v. Yousef.

FBI Plays Texas Hold'em With Jihadi

2010-06-04T08:27:00.000-07:00

Surprise! Just when John Brennan had you feeling relaxed by telling Jihad was ok, another jihadi gets arrested trying to provide material support to jihadis. OMG, my sense of trust in the government's strategic understanding of enemy threat doctrine has been turned upside down.....oh, wait, never mind, these are not the droids I'm looking for.
Houston Chronicle has the story here:

Barry Walter Bujol Jr. claimed he was just a window washer, but a federal grand jury on Thursday accused the 29-year-old of attempting to provide al-Qaida terrorists with global positioning instruments, cell phones and a restricted publication on the effects of U.S. military weapons in Afghanistan.

According to court records, the tall, bearded Bujol was arrested by federal agents at the Port of Houston while boarding a ship bound for the Middle East.

Bujol, a U.S. citizen, was shackled at the waist and ankles when he appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Frances Stacy, who ordered him to remain in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.

“This arrest is a sobering reminder of the threat we continue to face,” said Richard Powers, head of the FBI's Houston division. “It remains the FBI's overriding priority to predict and prevent terrorist attacks, at home and abroad.”

Authorities also searched Bujol's home at the Pine Meadows Apartments in Hempstead.

He said little in court; his attorney could not be reached immediately after the hearing.

The FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force began investigating Bujol in 2008 and determined he was sending e-mail to Anwar al-Aulaqi, a known associate and propagandist for al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, according to prosecutors.

Al-Aulaqi provided him with a document titled “42 Ways of Supporting Jihad.” Bujol also allegedly sought al-Aulaqi for advice on how to provide money to the mujahedeen overseas. Al-Aulaqi is the native-born U.S. citizen who exchanged e-mail with the suspect in the 2009 Fort Hood shootings, Army psychiatrist Nidal Malik Hasan.

In addition, Bujol made three unsuccessful attempts during February and March 2009 to leave the country and travel to Yemen or elsewhere in the Middle East, according to court documents.

The indictment lists 11 names for Bujol, including Pat, Paul, Michael, Abu ABudha Al Farnasi and Abu Najya.

He is accused of knowingly attempting to provide material support or resources to al-Qaida, including personnel, currency, prepaid phone cards, mobile telephone SIM cards and global positioning systems.

Prosecutors said he also attempted to provide restricted publications that detailed not only aspects of U.S. military systems, but described unmanned vehicles as well.

“Protecting the American public from the threat of terrorism, both international and home-grown, is the highest priority of the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Texas,” said Jose Angel Moreno, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Texas.
FBI enlists informant

As federal authorities did not take questions, it is not known how Bujol first came to their attention, what steps he allegedly took to transport the goods to al-Qaida, or whether any of those items were procured in the Houston area. Also unknown at this point is how Bujol is alleged to have made his initial contact with al-Qaida.

Beginning in November 2009, the FBI brought a confidential informant into the investigation — someone whom Bujol allegedly believed was an al-Qaida operative, according to prosecutors.

Over the next few months, Bujol repeatedly said he was willing to travel overseas to fight for al-Qaida.

The person working for the FBI provided him with a fake identification card that Bujol would use to get into the port in order to board a ship bound for the Middle East.

Bujol and his wife, Ernestine Johnson, are also charged with fraud in connection with an alleged conspiracy to obtain housing subsidies, court records show.

In 2009, Bujol claimed to make just $75 a week working part-time as a window washer at what authorities contend was a bogus company established in his name.

Johnson said she survived on money sent from the family.
Accused of rent scam

Because of the low income he claimed, Bujol secured subsidies that lowered the couple's rent to just $6 per month, instead of the usual $715, according to an affidavit filed in federal court.

At one point, Bujol allegedly was using the Social Security number of a man who had been killed in a car accident in Louisiana in 2001.

The FBI said it started keeping tabs on Bujol in 2009 with a camera hidden outside the couple's apartment, and never saw evidence that he had gainful employment.

Progressives Would Evolve Constitution to Nothing

2010-06-04T08:21:00.000-07:00

George Will writes a great op-ed contrasting Madisonian and Wilsonian view of the Constitution. In a nutshell, Madisonian view is that of limited government, Wilsonian aka Progressive view is of limitless government.

The danger of a government with unlimited power

By George F. Will
Thursday, June 3, 2010; A17

Today, as it has been for a century, American politics is an argument between two Princetonians -- James Madison, Class of 1771, and Woodrow Wilson, Class of 1879. Madison was the most profound thinker among the Founders. Wilson, avatar of "progressivism," was the first president critical of the nation's founding. Barack Obama's Wilsonian agenda reflects its namesake's rejection of limited government.

Lack of "a limiting principle" is the essence of progressivism, according to William Voegeli, contributing editor of the Claremont Review of Books, in his new book "Never Enough: America's Limitless Welfare State." The Founders, he writes, believed that free government's purpose, and the threats to it, are found in nature. The threats are desires for untrammeled power, desires which, Madison said, are "sown in the nature of man." Government's limited purpose is to protect the exercise of natural rights that pre-exist government, rights that human reason can ascertain in unchanging principles of conduct and that are essential to the pursuit of happiness.

Wilsonian progressives believe that History is a proper noun, an autonomous thing. It, rather than nature, defines government's ever-evolving and unlimited purposes. Government exists to dispense an ever-expanding menu of rights -- entitlements that serve an open-ended understanding of material and even spiritual well-being.

The name "progressivism" implies criticism of the Founding, which we leave behind as we make progress. And the name is tautological: History is progressive because progress is defined as whatever History produces. History guarantees what the Supreme Court has called "evolving standards of decency that mark the progress of a maturing society."

The cheerful assumption is that "evolving" must mean "improving." Progressivism's promise is a program for every problem, and progressivism's premise is that every unfulfilled desire is a problem.

Franklin Roosevelt, an alumnus of Wilson's administration, resolved to "resume" Wilson's "march along the path of real progress" by giving government "the vibrant personal character that is the very embodiment of human charity." He repudiated the Founders' idea that government is instituted to protect pre-existing and timeless natural rights, promising "the re-definition of these rights in terms of a changing and growing social order."

He promised "a right to make a comfortable living." Presumably, the judiciary would define and enforce the delivery of comfort. Specifically, there could be no right to "do anything which deprives others" of whatever "elemental rights" the government decides to dispense.

Today, government finds the limitless power of dispensing not in Madison's Constitution of limited government but in Wilson's theory that the Constitution actually frees government from limitations. The liberating -- for government -- idea is that the Constitution is a "living," evolving document. Wilson's Constitution is an emancipation proclamation for government, empowering it to regulate all human activities in order to treat all human desires as needs and hence as rights. Unlimited power is entailed by what Voegeli calls government's "right to discover new rights."

"Liberalism's protean understanding of rights," he says, "complicates and ultimately dooms the idea of a principled refusal to elevate any benefit that we would like people to enjoy to the status of an inviolable right." Needs breed rights to have the needs addressed, to the point that Lyndon Johnson, an FDR protege, promised that government would provide Americans with "purpose" and "meaning."

Although progressivism's ever-lengthening list of rights is as limitless as human needs/desires, one right that never makes the list is the right to keep some inviolable portion of one's private wealth or income, "regardless," Voegeli says, "of the lofty purposes social reformers wish to make of it."

Lacking a limiting principle, progressivism cannot say how big the welfare state should be but must always say that it should be bigger than it currently is. Furthermore, by making a welfare state a fountain of rights requisite for democracy, progressives in effect declare that democratic deliberation about the legitimacy of the welfare state is illegitimate.

"By blackening the skies with crisscrossing dollars," Voegeli says, the welfare state encourages people "to believe an impossibility: that every household can be a net importer of the wealth redistributed by the government." But the welfare state's problem, today becoming vivid, is socialism's problem, as Margaret Thatcher defined it: Socialist governments "always run out of other people's money."

Wilsonian government, meaning (in Wilson's words) government with "unstinted power," is hostile to Madison's Constitution, which, Madison said, obliges government "to control itself." Thus our choice is between government restraint rooted in respect for nature, or government free to follow History wherever government says History marches.

Krauthammer on Gaza Blockade

2010-06-04T08:13:00.000-07:00

One of the few good pundits left, Krauthammer nails the truth surrounding Gaza:
The Obama Administration will allow (either through planning or ignorance) the destruction of Israel.

Summary quote: "Israel refuses repeated invitations to national suicide."
We should adopt the same strategy.

Full article follows:
Charles Krauthammer
Friday, June 4, 2010; A19

The world is outraged at Israel's blockade of Gaza. Turkey denounces its illegality, inhumanity, barbarity, etc. The usual U.N. suspects, Third World and European, join in. The Obama administration dithers.

But as Leslie Gelb, former president of the Council on Foreign Relations, writes, the blockade is not just perfectly rational, it is perfectly legal. Gaza under Hamas is a self-declared enemy of Israel -- a declaration backed up by more than 4,000 rockets fired at Israeli civilian territory. Yet having pledged itself to unceasing belligerency, Hamas claims victimhood when Israel imposes a blockade to prevent Hamas from arming itself with still more rockets.

In World War II, with full international legality, the United States blockaded Germany and Japan. And during the October 1962 missile crisis, we blockaded ("quarantined") Cuba. Arms-bearing Russian ships headed to Cuba turned back because the Soviets knew that the U.S. Navy would either board them or sink them. Yet Israel is accused of international criminality for doing precisely what John Kennedy did: impose a naval blockade to prevent a hostile state from acquiring lethal weaponry.

Oh, but weren't the Gaza-bound ships on a mission of humanitarian relief? No. Otherwise they would have accepted Israel's offer to bring their supplies to an Israeli port, be inspected for military materiel and have the rest trucked by Israel into Gaza -- as every week 10,000 tons of food, medicine and other humanitarian supplies are sent by Israel to Gaza.

Why was the offer refused? Because, as organizer Greta Berlin admitted, the flotilla was not about humanitarian relief but about breaking the blockade, i.e., ending Israel's inspection regime, which would mean unlimited shipping into Gaza and thus the unlimited arming of Hamas.

Israel has already twice intercepted ships laden with Iranian arms destined for Hezbollah and Gaza. What country would allow that?

But even more important, why did Israel even have to resort to blockade? Because, blockade is Israel's fallback as the world systematically de-legitimizes its traditional ways of defending itself -- forward and active defense.

(1) Forward defense: As a small, densely populated country surrounded by hostile states, Israel had, for its first half-century, adopted forward defense -- fighting wars on enemy territory (such as the Sinai and Golan Heights) rather than its own.

Where possible (Sinai, for example) Israel has traded territory for peace. But where peace offers were refused, Israel retained the territory as a protective buffer zone. Thus Israel retained a small strip of southern Lebanon to protect the villages of northern Israel. And it took many losses in Gaza, rather than expose Israeli border towns to Palestinian terror attacks. It is for the same reason America wages a grinding war in Afghanistan: You fight them there, so you don't have to fight them here.

But under overwhelming outside pressure, Israel gave it up. The Israelis were told the occupations were not just illegal but at the root of the anti-Israel insurgencies -- and therefore withdrawal, by removing the cause, would bring peace.

Land for peace. Remember? Well, during the past decade, Israel gave the land -- evacuating South Lebanon in 2000 and Gaza in 2005. What did it get? An intensification of belligerency, heavy militarization of the enemy side, multiple kidnappings, cross-border attacks and, from Gaza, years of unrelenting rocket attack.

(2) Active defense: Israel then had to switch to active defense -- military action to disrupt, dismantle and defeat (to borrow President Obama's description of our campaign against the Taliban and al-Qaeda) the newly armed terrorist mini-states established in southern Lebanon and Gaza after Israel withdrew.

The result? The Lebanon war of 2006 and Gaza operation of 2008-09. They were met with yet another avalanche of opprobrium and calumny by the same international community that had demanded the land-for-peace Israeli withdrawals in the first place. Worse, the U.N. Goldstone report, which essentially criminalized Israel's defensive operation in Gaza while whitewashing the casus belli -- the preceding and unprovoked Hamas rocket war -- effectively de-legitimized any active Israeli defense against its self-declared terror enemies.

(3) Passive defense: Without forward or active defense, Israel is left with but the most passive and benign of all defenses -- a blockade to simply prevent enemy rearmament. Yet, as we speak, this too is headed for international de-legitimation. Even the United States is now moving toward having it abolished.

But, if none of these is permissible, what's left?

Ah, but that's the point. It's the point understood by the blockade-busting flotilla of useful idiots and terror sympathizers, by the Turkish front organization that funded it, by the automatic anti-Israel Third World chorus at the United Nations, and by the supine Europeans who've had quite enough of the Jewish problem.

What's left? Nothing. The whole point of this relentless international campaign is to deprive Israel of any legitimate form of self-defense. Why, just last week, the Obama administration joined the jackals, and reversed four decades of U.S. practice, by signing onto a consensus document that singles out Israel's possession of nuclear weapons -- thus de-legitimizing Israel's very last line of defense: deterrence.

The world is tired of these troublesome Jews, 6 million -- that number again -- hard by the Mediterranean, refusing every invitation to national suicide. For which they are relentlessly demonized, ghettoized and constrained from defending themselves, even as the more committed anti-Zionists -- Iranian in particular -- openly prepare a more final solution.

Jihad Counselor Wanted

2010-06-04T07:38:00.001-07:00

Wanted: Instructors for the way of Jihad
Islamic Saudi Academy has numerous openings for fine educational professionals who can continue to produce fine ISA graduates like:
Raed Abdul-Rahman Alsaif (arrested for attempting to board a plane with a concealed weapon)
Ahmed Omar Abu Ali (convicted and in prison for life, for attempting assassinate George W. Bush)

The ISA wishes to continue its harmony with the local community dhimmis, infidels, apostates, those filthy jews, and all form of kaffir that is our religious duty to kill. The instructors must follow this example as demonstrated by our Sharia compliant and Saudi approved textbooks and impeccable past leadership such as Abdalla I. Al-Shabnan who demonstrated the proper way to disregard all laws except Sharia ones when he failed to report child abuse.

Featured here at an ISA hearing is Nihad Awad who took a break from planning with convicted terrorists for some civic action or jihad by another name.

Fairfax County Muslim Arrested For Threatening Obama

2010-06-03T12:23:00.000-07:00

FAIRFAX, Va. - A Fairfax County man is under arrest after being accused of threatening to "blow the brains out" of President Obama. Police are taking the email threat very seriously.

The Fairfax patent lawyer is charged with threatening to kill the president on, but neighbors suspect there were previous threats. His next door neighbor found a law enforcement agent hiding behind a tree in his front yard just after the February blizzard appearing to monitor the home of the alleged would be assassin.

As Laurel Ridge Elementary School was letting out Friday, parents were shocked to discover that the neighbor who lives in a house on Commonwealth Boulevard is now in prison and accused of threatening to kill President Obama. ABC 7 Talkback:

We asked neighbor Jennifer Baitinger if the news was trouble to her, given his house and proximity to the school. She replied, "Oh yes, definitely. It's a little disturbing."

Mary Walker sits on the board of the neighborhood association.

She said about the neighborhood, "Kings Park West is a great neighborhood. We've got families with young children. We've got singles. We've got lots of senior citizens who are like grandparents to everybody."

In court papers, the government charges Adam Albrett, also known as Muhannad Almahmoudi, sent an email May 14 threatening to "blow the brains out of President Obama unless he vacates the White House."

The arrest warrant accuses Albrett of "threats against the president and successors to the presidency," which would be White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. Albrett also threatened to kill Emanuel.

Neighbors say 45-year-old Albrett is a patent attorney of Middle Eastern descent who grew up here. His sister, who is a dentist, and two brothers, an engineer and a doctor, attended Laurel Ridge Elementary School.

Neighbors say that Albrett and his family all have been friendly during their years on Commonwealth Boulevard. His mother often exchanged cookies and food at the holidays.

Albrett waits in prison for his next court appearance on June 1.

Pakistani national found guilty of conspiring to back Taliban

2010-05-27T22:39:00.001-07:00

Say it isn't so. A Pakistani national backing the Taliban...never. The most important thing is that it has nothing to do with his religion and that Islam is a religion of peace, and these are not the droids you're looking for.

HOUSTON (AP) — A Pakistani college student living in Texas was convicted Thursday of conspiring to help the Taliban and fight U.S. troops.
A federal jury convicted Adnan Babar Mirza, 33, of two conspiracy counts and seven firearms violations after a three-day trial in Houston. He faces up to five years in prison on each conspiracy count and 10 years on the weapons counts when he is sentenced on Sept. 10.

Mirza, who remains in federal custody, was one of four men arrested in 2006 for alleged participation in paramilitary training exercises at campsites around the Houston area so they could engage in a holy war.

Mirza's attorney, David Adler, told jurors Mirza went on camping trips but denied they involved paramilitary training exercises.

Prosecutor Jim McAlister told jurors that the activities of Mirza and the other three men came to authorities' attention after another of their friends, James Coates, decided "things were getting out of hand" and became an FBI informant.

Mirza claimed Coates was the one who was militant and promoted violence.

An undercover officer taped conversations with Mirza and the other men in which they allegedly talked about ambushing U.S. soldiers and triggering a bomb with a cell phone, according to court documents.

FBI Special Agent John McKinley, the prosecution's first witness, told jurors Mirza can be heard on the taped conversations talking about sending money to support Taliban families. Prosecutors have said Mirza collected about $900 for Taliban fighters and their families.

But Adler said it's not against the law to send money to the families of Taliban fighters and Mirza collected money for hospitals and other groups but not specifically for the Taliban.

He also said Mirza can be heard in these taped conversations expressing anger about injustices Muslims around the world have experienced, but his client was just expressing emotion and didn't intend to act on it.

Prosecutors also said Mirza, who was attending Houston Community College, was in the country illegally because he violated his student visa by working.

Adler denied his client violated his student visa by working.

The three other men who were arrested have pleaded guilty or been convicted.

Kobie Diallo Williams, a U.S. citizen, was sentenced in August to 4½ years in prison for conspiring to join the Taliban and fight against U.S. forces.

Syed Maaz Shah, a former Pakistani engineering student at the University of Texas at Dallas, was sentenced in 2007 to 6½ years in prison on federal firearms charges. Shiraz Syed Qazi, also a Pakistani student and Mirza's cousin, received a 10-month prison sentence in 2007 on a firearms charge.

Big Khat Bust in Fairfax Wahhabi Corridor

2010-05-27T22:02:00.000-07:00

Welcome to the Wahhabi Corridor, home to Dar al Hijrah and Build America and overflowing with Islamists. This is not what was meant by your tired, your hungry, your poor.

Police Seize Record Catch of Khat

Mason Police District – A police officer on patrol observed what appeared to be a drug transaction in a parking lot at 5981 Columbia Pike in the Falls Church area, around 6:10 p.m. on Saturday May 15. The officer stopped two men and conducted an investigation which revealed that one suspect was allegedly purchasing khat from the other. Both men were arrested and approximately 21 pounds of khat was seized. A subsequent search of one suspect’s house led to the seizure of an additional 111 pounds of khat.

This is believed to be the largest seizure of khat in Fairfax County history. Khat is an amphetamine and a Schedule I drug. It is a flowering evergreen shrub native to East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. Typically, it is chewed like tobacco, though it can be smoked and sprinkled on food.

Ahmed Omer Abdujelel, 45, of 2846 Annandale Road #121 was charged with distribution of a Schedule I drug and distribution near certain properties (recreation center).

Ali Abdi Hersi, 47, of 30 Channing Street, NW, in Washington DC was charged with possession of a Schedule I drug.

Fairfax Muslim Threatened South Park

2010-05-27T21:22:00.000-07:00

I would love, love to see, a discussion of jihad between John Brennan and Fairfax County's good jihadi son, Zachary Adam Chesser/Abu Talhah Al-Amrikee.

Al-Amrikee, a former George Mason Univeristy student, is the good muslim who threatened South Park over the Mohammad (may he burn in hell) episode, or as he claims, did not threaten but rather announce a universal truth that they should die:

“This stance [advocating death for those who insult Muhammad in keeping with several Islamic rulings throughout history] is virtually obligatory,” the statement says in part. “But it does not mean that our taking this stance is in some way an absolute call toward the requirement that the creators of South Park must be killed, nor a deliberate attempt at incitement; it is only to declare the truth regardless of consequence and to offer an awareness in the mind of Westerners when they consider doing the same thing.”

He did attend GMU, until he met another muslim student (presumably female), and dropped out to marry and successfully procreate. Mr. and Mrs. Jihadi and their baby jihadi have put down roots as the peaceful quite Jihadi nuclear family next door that is polite to their infidel neighbors they wouldn't hesitate to kill.
But fear not, his religon has nothing to do with his motives, and Islam is a religion of peace. Brennan, drink our cool-aid, not theirs.

But don't fear Dhimmi Fairfax, though he no longer lives at his mother's Centerville home, we've not lost him, he still lives in another Fairfax town. Look for him at an interfaith meeting near you.

Interesting, if not confusing, is the back and forth between overt Islamist and flaming Islamist. CAIR claimed the Revolution Muslim South Park threats were a set-up, to which Al-Amrikee had this to say:

In response to statements by the Council on American-Islamic Relations implying that Revolution Islam was too outrageous to be real and could be a setup to smear Islam, Al-Amrikee said, “CAIR is an organization which frequently abandons Islamic principles in favor of pleasing American politicians. This is how many if not most Muslims view them. We e-mailed them our press release so that they could respond, but they have yet to do this. They do not return to the religious proofs for what they say, but they issue statements from emotions.”

“CAIR should worry more about the millions of Muslims whose blood has been shed by America over the past 20 years than appeasing a society that only cares about its own citizens,” Al-Amrikee said.

This just in, we're f'd.

2010-05-27T13:33:00.000-07:00

The President's top counterterrorism adviser, John Brennan, announces that Jihadis are fighting us, and we will continue not to fight them. Might as well announce we're at war with the Boogey Man and the monster under my bed.

Here is how you know that a lot more infidels and apostates are going to die:

"Nor do we describe our enemy as 'jihadists' or 'Islamists' because jihad is a holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam, meaning to purify oneself or one's community, and there is nothing holy or legitimate or Islamic about murdering innocent men, women and children," Brennan said.

Well the only problem with his statment is, well everything, someone has been reading more Tarriq Ramadan than his Koran, the Hadiths, or say the Pakistani military's definitive treatise on jihad, "The Quaranic Concept of War." Its here on Amazaon, but then again, I suppose you don't find what you don't look for. Which is really the point, we're not looking at all. Even worse, Brennan is reading their propoganda.

But maybe its just the administration, surely others can't be so foolish, say like approving a mega-mosque at the WTC.

Dar al Hijrah Hosts Bucks For Bombers

2010-02-13T13:04:00.000-08:00

Come on down to Dar al Hijrah, the past, present, and future home of terrorists and terrorist sympathizers, and donate tonight for...surprise, a convicted terrorist.

Radio Free Dar al Harb says: “Dar al Hijrah can no longer claim guilt by association when they celebrate their association with the guilty.”

No better way to show their commitment to convicted Islamist terrorist Sabri Benkahla, by having an Islamist famous for defending the Sharia practice of wife beating and connected the convicted Holy Land Foundation. It appears Dar al Hijrah's past Imam is too busy with the Jihad overseas to be the keynote speaker. Fortunately, tonight's speaker, Dr. Jamal Badawi can rally the Ikwan to support another of Dar al Hijrah's esteemed convicted terrorists.

More later, got to cover this wondrous event.

Terrorism that's personal (12 images)EDITOR'S NOTE: GRAPHIC CONTENT

Text by Jim Verhulst, Times' Perspective editor | Photos by Emilio Morenatti, Associated Press

We typically think of terrorism as a political act.

But sometimes it’s very personal. It wasn’t a government or a guerrilla insurgency that threw acid on this woman’s face in Pakistan. It was a young man whom she had rejected for marriage. As the United States ponders what to do in Afghanistan — and for that matter, in Pakistan — it is wise to understand both the political and the personal, that the very ignorance and illiteracy and misogyny that create the climate for these acid attacks can and does bleed over into the political realm. Nicholas Kristof, the New York Times op-ed columnist who traveled to Pakistan last year to write about acid attacks, put it this way in an essay at the time: “I’ve been investigating such acid attacks, which are commonly used to terrorize and subjugate women and girls in a swath of Asia from Afghanistan through Cambodia (men are almost never attacked with acid). Because women usually don’t matter in this part of the world, their attackers are rarely prosecuted and acid sales are usually not controlled. It’s a kind of terrorism that becomes accepted as part of the background noise in the region. ...

“Bangladesh has imposed controls on acid sales to curb such attacks, but otherwise it is fairly easy in Asia to walk into a shop and buy sulfuric or hydrochloric acid suitable for destroying a human face. Acid attacks and wife burnings are common in parts of Asia because the victims are the most voiceless in these societies: They are poor and female. The first step is simply for the world to take note, to give voice to these women.” Since 1994, a Pakistani activist who founded the Progressive Women’s Association (www.pwaisbd.org) to help such women “has documented 7,800 cases of women who were deliberately burned, scalded or subjected to acid attacks, just in the Islamabad area. In only 2 percent of those cases was anyone convicted.”

The geopolitical question is already hard enough: Should the United States commit more troops to Afghanistan and for what specific purpose? As American policymakers mull the options, here is a frame of reference that puts the tough choices in even starker relief: Are acid attacks a sign of just how little the United States can do to solve intractable problems there — therefore, we should pull out? Or having declared war on terrorism, must the United States stay out of moral duty, to try to protect women such as these — and the schoolgirls whom the Taliban in Afghanistan sprayed with acid simply for going to class — who have suffered a very personal terrorist attack? We offer a reading file of two smart essays that come to differing conclusions.

• In August, Perspective published a New York Times Magazine piece that followed up the story of Afghan sisters Shamsia and Atifa Husseini, who were attacked with acid simply for attending school. If you wish to refresh your memory, you may read the original article here.

• Two very smart, informed observers come to opposite conclusions on the proper U.S. course of action in Afghanistan. Here are excerpts from arguments that each of them has recently made:

Here are excerpts from Steve Coll’s “Think Tank” blog at NewYorker.com, in which he argues why we can’t leave — “What If We Fail In Afghanistan?” (Read it in full here.)

In an essay entitled “The War We Can’t Win” in Commonweal (also reprinted this month by Harper’s), Andrew J. Bacevich makes the case that we are overstating the importance of Afghanistan to U.S. interests. Bacevich is a professor of international relations at Boston University and the author, most recently, of The Limits of Power. A retired Army lieutenant colonel, he served from 1969 to 1992, in Vietnam and the first Persian Gulf War. He was a conservative critic of the Iraq war. Several of his essays have run before in Perspective. To read this one in full, go here.

Christian Warrior Anthem

2009-11-25T09:44:00.000-08:00

I am going to do something special with this.

Lyrics:
The transliterated lyrics to "Preliator," which is Latin for "Warrior" or "Fighter," read as follows. For simplicity's sake, I have deleted the first version of the lyrics, which are flat-out inaccurate. My thanks to Kendralogan, who laid down the framework for this answer, and for beginning the translation. As the lyrics to this song were written by someone who only knew basic Latin, I have taken some creative license and expanded them slightly so that they make more sense in English. They are as follows:

Our savior, blessed God, You are eternal
Your mystery, your holy death, before all

Our blessed Savior,
You number the hairs on our heads;
Truly blessed, blessed are we
We, the warriors of truth

Our savior, blessed God
We fight for your holy cause
Beyond eternity, enduring always
Are you, the leader of the choir, Regal King of the universe

For you Savior, we defend the holy cause
Bright Father, gloried in resurrection!
For you Savior, we defend the holy cause
Bright Father, gloried upon that day

The earth is shadowed, an evil place
Those who are wicked shall perish,
Who do not take what our Master has put forth
The Bright Father, Regal King of the universe

For you Savior, we defend the holy cause.
Bright Father, gloried in resurrection!
For you Savior, we defend the holy cause.
Bright Father, gloried upon that day!

For you Savior, we defend the holy cause
Bright Father, gloried in resurrection!
For you Savior, we defend the holy cause
Bright Father, gloried upon that day!

Tearful, tearful are those
Who do not take what our Master has put forth

Ft. Hood is a jihadi attack.
Multiple attackers targeting troops deploying to muslim countries=Jihad
This is the only reason FBI has gone to Ft. Hood.
What remains to be seen is how many more supported. Who was their imam? Was he a military chaplin? What about the families.

Expect CAIR to issue the Islamaphoia warning any time now.
Media will play along or minimize, much like they did with the beltway sniper John Allen Mohammed.

http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS247776+28-Oct-2009+PRN20091028
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Council on American-Islamic
Relations (CAIR) today distributed an editorial, entitled "Islamophobia
Machine Targets American Muslims," outlining what the Washington-based Muslim
civil rights group says is a campaign by "extremists of all stripes who
coordinate and cooperate in a relentless effort to demonize Islam and deprive
American Muslims of their civil rights."

CAIR distributed the editorial through ISLAM-OPED, a syndication service
designed to offer an American Muslim perspective on current political, social
and religious issues. ISLAM-OPED commentaries are offered free-of-charge to
one media outlet in each market area. Permission for publication will be

CAIR: Islamophobia Machine Targets American Muslims
Nihad Awad
WORD COUNT: 1187

[Nihad Awad is national executive director for the Council on American-Islamic
Relations (CAIR), the nation's leading Muslim civil liberties organization. He
may be contacted at nawad@cair.com.]

"Are you a believer?" asked the participant in a Capitol Hill gathering of
Islamophobes and Muslim-bashers who -- according to conference materials --
were seeking to promote "freedom of speech and religion."

When CAIR's intern answered, "Yes, of course," the conference participant --
whose card indicated he works for "Encountering Islam Christian Ministry" and
obviously thinking "believer" meant something other than Muslim -- replied,
"Good, because we want to cut their [Muslims'] necks off."

Just one hour later, the officially-registered intern was asked to leave the
conference, which was held in the U.S. Congressional Auditorium, because "some
of the panel members do not feel comfortable with you being here." So much for
freedom of speech and religion.

Before being ejected, CAIR's intern heard one audience member seek advice from
a panelist as to how American Muslim rights could be "curtailed," given the
fact that "unfortunately" Islam itself cannot be outlawed.

But not to worry -- one of the speakers at the Washington, D.C., conference
does advocate outlawing Islam in America. That speaker, David Yerushalmi,
works for one of the other speakers at the conference, Frank Gaffney Jr.

Other panelists included anti-Islam hate blogger Pam Geller, who has appeared
at Muslim-bashing events with Gaffney and with another conference speaker,
Florida House of Representatives Majority Leader Adam Hasner. Hasner recently
hosted an appearance by extremist anti-Islam Dutch politician Geert "ban the
Quran" Wilders in Florida, which was co-hosted by the hate blogger and
promoted by another conference panelist, Tom Trento of the Florida Security
Council.

Does all this make sense? It does if you understand that there is an
"Islamophobia Machine" made up of extremists of all stripes who coordinate and
cooperate in a relentless effort to demonize Islam and deprive American
Muslims of their civil rights.

The list of attendees at CAIR's recent sold-out 15th annual banquet in
Arlington, Va., further illustrates how the Islamophobia machine works.

Two of those who purchased tickets for the banquet were notorious Islamophobes
with histories of Muslim-bashing and associations with hate groups.

Among the 750 Muslim community members and activists, interfaith leaders and
diplomats from Muslim-majority nations who heard addresses by speakers such as
Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rabbi Steven B. Jacobs of Progressive Faith Foundation
were the two "moles" -- a hijab-clad representative of an anti-Islam group and
a "counterterrorism consultant" who claims Thomas Jefferson only owned a Quran
"so that he could know his enemy, so he could confront them, know them, kill
them."

The consultant, John Cosgrove, made that claim weeks earlier as he protested
the "Day of Islamic Unity," during which thousands of American Muslims
gathered for prayer on Capitol Hill. Cosgrove is head of the Virginia chapter
of the anti-Muslim hate group called the United American Committee (UAC). He
was one of the main opponents of the expansion of an Islamic school in
Virginia.

In 2007, the head of the UAC called Islam a "cult" and said terrorists are
"honest" Muslims. He also stated that anyone who believes Muslims are not the
"enemy" is "incredibly ignorant or a simple-minded fool."

Hijab-wearing mole number two, Christine Brim, is senior vice president for
policy and program management at the Center for Security Policy. She was asked
to leave the event after being observed surreptitiously recording the banquet
speeches, despite earlier being given legal notice that such recordings were
prohibited. Instead of speaking to security personnel, Brim immediately fled
to the hotel's exit. (CAIR's dinner was an open event with media present.
Unauthorized recordings are prohibited only to prevent abuse by those who
have, in the past, sought to smear the speakers by distorting their words.)

Brim, along with Cosgrove, was an opponent of the Islamic school in Virginia.

Her group and its President Frank Gaffney Jr. actively promote the racist and
anti-Islam ideology of David Yerushalmi, the center's general counsel, who has
advocated outlawing the practice of Islam in America and permanently closing
all U.S. mosques.

SEE: Center for Security Policy Staff
http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/staff.xml

In a 2007 commentary headlined "War Manifesto -- The War Against Islam,"
Yerushalmi called for a "war against Islam and all Muslim faithful." He wrote
in part:

"On the so-called Global War on Terrorism, GWOT, we have been quite clear
along with a few other resolute souls. This should be a WAR AGAINST ISLAM and
all Muslim faithful...At a practical level, this means that Shari'a and
Islamic law are immediately outlawed. Any Moslem in America who adopts
historical and traditional Shari'a will be subject to deportation. Mosques
which adhere to Islamic law will be shut down permanently. No self-described
or practicing Muslim, irrespective of his or her declarations to the contrary,
will be allowed to immigrate to this country..."

Another such "manifesto" called for making "adherence to Islam" punishable by
a 20-year prison term.

In a 2006 article for The American Spectator, Yerushalmi wrote: "Muslim
civilization is at war with Judeo-Christian civilization...The Muslim peoples,
those committed to Islam as we know it today, are our enemies."

In another article, Yerushalmi wrote: "Instead of a promise of victory, Sura
24:52 must be made ashes in the mouths of Muslims. A seemingly unending air
control campaign over enemy territory is the way to continually remind the
Muslims of their subordinate status and the impotence of Allah without
becoming mired in the quagmire of counterinsurgency."

He also wrote that he "has staked out an approach which is to Know the Enemy
by declaring the enemy historical, traditional, and authoritative Islam."

Yerushalmi's website once contained the following white supremacist language
as part of its mission statement:

"America was the handiwork of faithful Christians, mostly men, and almost
entirely white, who ventured from Europe to create a nation in their image of
a country existing as free men under G-d."

Other articles on his website made racist statements such as: "There is a
reason the founding fathers did not give women or black slaves the right to
vote," and "Race matters and affects your intelligence. Jews are the smartest
white people around. Orientals smarter than Whites. Latinos next. Then
Blacks."

Another article stated:

"Is there something unique about the Black American (or, at least the Black
New Yorker) that leads him to murder so disproportionately and to most often
kill and victimize his own?"

Yerushalmi is also the former employer of Dave Gaubatz, his one-time "Director
of Intelligence and Counter-terrorism Studies" and author of a Muslim-bashing
book. In 2007, Yerushalmi's group paid Gaubatz $148,898 for "research."

Gaubatz has a long history of bigotry targeting Islam and Muslims. He has
called Islam an "evil ideology" and a "terminal disease." Along with his past
rhetorical attacks Islam, Gaubatz has called President Obama a "crack head"
and wrote that "a vote for Hussein Obama is a vote for Sharia Law."

It is becoming obvious to anyone who puts all the parts of the Islamophobia
machine together that American Muslims are being targeted by a coordinated and
well-funded nationwide effort to disenfranchise their community and demonize
their faith.

This insidious effort will only succeed if Americans of all faiths fail take a
stand against un-American attempts to divide our nation along religious lines.

CAIR 15th Annual Banquet Quicklook

2009-10-26T08:50:00.000-07:00

CAIR had its 15th annual banquet this past Saturday, Oct. 24, 2009, at the Gateway Crystal City Marriott in Arlington, VA. Located a few blocks from the Pentagon, it is ironic that their venue was the same used to host Arlington County's 9-11 After Action Conference, where first responders and officials from around the country came to learn from Arlington County's repose to 9-11.

All credit to my unnamed supporter, the theme of this year's banquet was the incredible shrinking CAIR. Embassies that attended in the past did not have tables, and though the Saudi Embassy had a table, only two people who may, or may not, have been from the Embassy arrived. Otherwise, it was 6 open seats at the table. Also notably absent were the Jordanian Embassy and the Iranian Interests Section. In doing a comparison between past banquets, far fewer embassies attended this year. However, while its old friends sat out, a new friend, in the form of Libya arrived. The Embassy of Libya had a full table as the Libyan Ambassador to the US attended the event. The Libyan Ambassador received special recognition by MC Mahdi Bray, and a very warm personal greeting from Esam Omeish. Perhaps this video contributed to Omeish's loss in his Dem. Va. Delegate primary loss:

CAIRs gave most of its awards its immediate inner circle. This raises the question of whether or not CAIR could find anyone of note that would actually accept the award. Mahdi Bray received one of their awards, perhaps for good work such as this:

This years banquet had more, and more visible, security. Marriott, Wachenhut, and CAIR staff put on a strong show. Of interest, the CAIR staff acting as security had badges this year, however I could not identify what the big gold shields said. If the shields had police, or special police, on them, they would have been in violation of Virginia law. It could not be determined if the increase in security was due to our video from last year, security required for Jesse Jackson, and or both.

The other big questions is why were Jesse Jackson, and sidekick Rabbi Steve Jacobs, their? Solicitations for the Rainbow Coalition PUSH were made, and as Bray said in pushing for donations for Jackson, "you've got to be a friend, to get a friend." Was Jackson there because CAIR paid for his help in response to the Myrick et al crackdown? Was Jackson just piling on to stay relevant?

Though I never agree with what they say, the speakers this year were worse than last year. Amidst a series of rambling, conspiracy theory, defensive, and half-hearted saber rattling, Larry Shaw stood out as the standout gaffe maker. Larry Shaw made a joke about the FBI sponsoring tables that was not well received due to the tangible paranoia in the room. He then proceeded to make an incoherent diatribe implying the US government was ignoring drug cartels to focus on low level drug dealers. Perhaps the most telling audience participation of the night was when Shaw asked the crowd separately if there were any U.S. military and then first responders in attendance. No one raised a hand or uttered a word. Dead silence.

Robert Spencer received a direct challenge from Mahdi Bray and Muslim Mafia was the target of the bully pulpit for the speakers. A victory in the Flying Imams case was also celebrated.

CAIR's donations that night, approximately $170,000+ helped them meet their quarterly goal of raising $1 million, alleged Bray after a substantially abbreviated fund raising effort by Siraj Wahhaj.

Funniest moment of the night goes not to a speaker, but to the Tiramisu that had alcohol in it. Only the Kafir in attendance recognized that wonderful haram taste.

I am working on scanning copies of the material that handed out at the tables near reception.

I sat with Martin McMahon (CAIR and Saudi lawyer), Arab News reporter Sarah Ferguson, and an Alhurrah anchor and producer. Always strange company at these events.

Florida Department of Law Enforcement earns an F

Center for Security Policy | Sep 16, 2009
By John D. Guandolo
[Note: John D. Guandolo is a 12 ½ year veteran of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. At the request of the Center for Security Policy, he prepared an assessment of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s (FDLE) investigation of the Ohio-based parents of former Muslim Rifqa Bary, the 17-year old apostate from Islam who has sought refuge in the state of Florida. The FDLE report is provided here, and is available as searchable text for the first time, below his analysis. The significant errors and omissions that Mr. Guandolo and other experts have found in this FDLE investigation show a failure in FDLE’s professional responsibility in handling the Rifqa Bary case. Governor Crist and FDLE management need to get new investigators on the job, start over, and this time do it right. A life may be at stake due to FDLE negligence-- and willful blindness-- in conducting this investigation.]

John D. Guandolo:
Response to FDLE Investigative Report on Rifqa Bary Matter

Upon my review of the report filed by the FDLE regarding the Rifqa Bary Matter in Florida, I offer my professional opinion.

1. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) Investigative Summary OR-73-1741 encapsulates the investigation into allegations made by Fathima Rifqa Bary (hereafter referred to as "Rifqa Bary") that she is or may be in physical danger from her father, Mohamed Bary, or others. Point 4 on page 2 of the report states Rifqa Bary believes her life to be in danger from an "honor killing" by her family or others, which she states is in accordance with Islamic Law. The report finds: "Ms. Bary's concern that she may be killed because of her conversion from Islam to Christianity remains a subjective and speculative concern..." and concludes there is no conspiracy to commit violence against her. The investigators in this matter offer this opinion void of any knowable facts.

In fact, a due diligence review would reveal the existence of authoritative Islamic Law texts officially translated into English. This review would further reveal Islamic Law - which is real law - has requirements and rules as to how to deal with those who leave Islam [eg The Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law, "Umdat al-Salik" also known as "Reliance of the Traveller" - publicly available]. If it can be shown (1) there is a requirement in Islamic Law for killing Ms. Bary as a publicly declared apostate from Islam, (2) that her parents adhere to Islamic Law, and (3) that she did, in fact, leave Islam and convert to Christianity, then the FDLE has a professional responsibility to include these facts in this report, and investigate this matter fully. There is nothing subjective about this - these are all ascertainable facts. I would hope the Florida State's Attorney's Office has done their due diligence on this matter and is aware of this

2. Mr. Bary's comments to the Investigators claiming there is "absolutely not" any concept of Honor Killings under Islamic Law can also be comparatively and factually reviewed against Islamic Law. There are, in fact, rules and requirements as to how apostates should be handled within the context of Islamic Law, and these facts must be reviewed by FDLE if a professional and factual report is to be completed.

3. It was noted that the Executive Director of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) -Columbus (Ohio) and the Staff Attorney for CAIR were present during the interview of Mr. Bary by FDLE Investigators. Absent from the FDLE report was any mention that CAIR is a known Muslim Brotherhood entity and an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation (HLF) trial - the largest terrorism financing trial in U.S. history - revealing HLF as a Hamas/Muslim Brotherhood front in the United States. All defendants in this case were found guilty in November 2008 and are serving long prison terms. These facts about CAIR were testified to at trial, and accepted as legally true. They are irrefutable - the documents demonstrating these facts were stipulated to by the defense. The Muslim Brotherhood's (MB) creed is "Allah is our goal; the Messenger is our guide: the Koran is our constitution; Jihad is our means; and martyrdom in the way of Allah is our inspiration," and their stated objective in America is a "Civilization-Jihad" to destroy the United States from within, and the MB exists to implement Islamic Law here in the United States.

All of these facts are relevant for two critical reasons. First, these material facts should be made known to the State Attorney's Office and any Judges involved in this case as a matter of course. Secondly, when representatives from an organization that is objectively known to be hostile towards to the United States and unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terrorism financing trial in U.S. history, are allowed to be present during a law enforcement interview of someone, it raises questions as to why they were allowed to be present at the interview at all.

These facts further demand an objective look to determine if the Muslim Brotherhood itself has a position on Islamic Law and Apostasy. One of the MB's two stated objectives is to implement Islamic Law in North America (and across the globe), and it is known they call for adherence to Islamic Law wherever Muslim communities exist. The Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law: Reliance of the Traveller is approved as valid Islamic Law by the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT), a known Muslim Brotherhood entity, as proven in the HLF trial.

In Reliance of the Traveller, Investigators will find specific legal doctrine on how apostates are to be treated under Islamic Law. Furthermore, the Muslim Brotherhood has a history of officially addressing the issue of Apostasy. In 1984, Ismail R. Al-Faruki , the Founder of IIIT, stated: "That is why Islamic Law has treated people who have converted out of Islam as political traitors...[Islam] must deal with the traitors when convicted after due process of law either with banishment, life imprisonment, or capital punishment...but once their conversion is proclaimed, they must be dealt with as traitors to the state."

Apostasy is also specifically addressed in Peace and the Limits of War, published by IIIT and written by Louay Safi, the former Executive Director of IIIT, Malaysia, the Association of Muslim Social Scientists (a proven Muslim Brotherhood entity), and the Executive Director of the Islamic Society of North America's (ISNA) Leadership Development Council. ISNA was proven to be a Muslim Brotherhood entity and is also an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terrorism financing trial in U.S. history - HLF. The book is also approved by the Secretary General of ISNA. In it, Mr. Safi notes that individual apostates cannot be killed for a "quiet desertion of personal Islamic duties," but can be put to death as "just punishment" when the apostate deserts Islam publicly (p. 31).

4. This is a statement of facts regarding this matter:

* There are requirements in Islamic Law regarding someone who deserts Islam
* The Muslim Brotherhood's objective is the implementation of Islamic Law in the United States
* Rifqa Bary has left Islam and become a Christian
* Rifqa Bary has made statements to FDLE officials and others that her parents have threatened to kill her because she has left Islam
* The Bary's appear to be adherent to Islamic Law
* The Bary's appear at an interview with two Muslim Brotherhood representatives doing business as CAIR, a group known to be hostile towards the United States which is also an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terrorism financing trial in U.S. history
* The Muslim Brotherhood supports the killing of Muslims who publicly leave Islam

5. It is my professional opinion that sufficient Probable Cause exists to believe that Ms Bary's concerns for her personal safety are based in a realistic and factual understanding of her situation, and, therefore, a further criminal investigation is warranted.

Investigative Summary
OR-73-1741

Pursuant to a request for investigative assistance, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement conducted an investigation into allegations by juvenile female Fathima Rifqa Bary that she is or may be in physical danger from her father, Mohamed Bary or others. FDLE's authority regarding criminal investigations is dictated by Florida Statute 943, as follows:

943.04 Criminal Justice Investigations and Forensic Science Program; creation; investigative, forensic, and related authority.-

2)(a) ... the department may investigate violations of any of the criminal laws of the state, and shall have authority to bear arms, make arrests and apply for, serve and execute search warrants, arrest warrants, capias, and other process of the court. FDLE has conducted numerous interviews and inquiries as part of this investigation, and is documenting the substance of those interviews as part of the FDLE case file. This document will serve as an Investigative Summary regarding FDLE's findings in this matter.

INVESTIGATIVE FINDINGS

On August 24, 2009, FDLE conducted an interview of Fathima Rifqa Bary. At that time, she made the following allegations:

1. Ms. Bary alleged she was the victim of an Assault by her father during an incident when her father threatened to strike her with a laptop computer in June 2009.

The investigative efforts by FDLE did not identify an assault having occurred against Ms. Bary in the state of Florida. Investigation of this allegation indicated it occurred in the state of Ohio, for which FDLE has no jurisdiction. Checks with Ohio law enforcement agencies revealed no derogatory information on Mr. Bary based on this allegation.

2. Ms. Bary alleged she was the victim of an Aggravated Assault by her father during the above mentioned incident when she alleges her father said "I will kill you, tell me the truth".

The investigative efforts by FDLE did not identify an aggravated assault occurring against Ms. Bary in the state of Florida. Investigation of this allegation indicated it occurred in the state of Ohio, for which FDLE has no jurisdiction. Checks with

Ohio law enforcement agencies revealed no derogatory information on Mr. Bary based on this allegation.

3. Ms. Bary alleged she was the victim of long term child abuse by her father. Ms. Bary alleged her father struck her regularly and provided the following examples in support of her allegation: Ms. Bary advised she was struck in the face in the family car and she was struck in the face for interrupting a conversation.

The investigative efforts by FDLE did not identify any evidence of child abuse having occurred against Ms. Bary in the state of Florida. Investigation of this allegation indicated the incidents occurred outside the state of Florida, for which FDLE has no jurisdiction. Checks with other law enforcement agencies revealed no derogatory information on Mr. Bary based on this allegation.

Should Ohio determine an investigation into the above allegations in their jurisdiction is warranted, FDLE stands ready to assist the state of Ohio in any way possible.

4. Ms. Bary alleged she will become the victim of an "honor killing" by her family or unknown persons due to her conversion from Islam to Christianity.

This allegation by Ms. Bary is based on her belief or understanding of the Islamic faith and/or Islamic law and custom. Ms. Bary stated that she believes Islamic law dictates she must be put to death for her abandonment of the Islamic faith which she refers to as apostasy. Ms. Bary has not articulated who would commit such a killing, other than her father (as listed above in allegation two), or where it would occur. Other than her father, she does not identify any specific individual who have verbally or physically threatened her with death. No credible reports of threats toward Ms Bary have been received in the states of Florida or Ohio.

The Islamic community was not investigated. An investigation into any person, religious or social organization without a specific identifiable criminal predicate is inappropriate. Investigators checked with the local, state and federal law enforcement communities in the Columbus, Ohio and Orlando, Florida areas and have not been made aware of any identifiable threat to Ms. Bary or the Bary family regarding this allegation. At the time of this report, FDLE has received no information from law enforcement agencies of threats toward Ms. Bary or the Bary family, nor has FDLE developed any derogatory information on the Bary family. The FDLE cannot further evaluate the potential for a threat to Ms. Bary given the lack of specific information. FDLE has not been able to establish that a crime has occurred in the states of Florida or Ohio, or will occur in the states of Florida or Ohio in relation to the allegations by Ms. Bary. FDLE is mindful of the rights of all individuals associated with this investigation and has remained focused on specific allegations of criminal activity as presented by Ms. Bary. Ms. Bary's concern that she may be killed because of her conversion from Islam to Christianity remains a subjective and speculative concern in that FDLE's inquiry to date has failed to reveal any evidence ofa conspiracy to commit, solicitation to commit, attempt or other efforts to commit any such action or other violence against her.

The following is a summation of the investigative activities conducted by FDLE:

On Monday, August 24, 2009, Special Agents of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and a Child Protective Investigator of the State of Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) conducted a sworn taped interview with Fathima Rifqa Bary, a juvenile. During the interview, Ms. Bary admitted to having run away from her home in Westerville, Ohio on July 20, 2009 and to having travelled by Greyhound bus to Orlando, Florida. Ms. Bary stated that she ran away from home due to her fear that her recent conversion from the Islamic faith to Christianity would result in violence or death.

Ms. Bary stated that in approximately June 2009 she learned that a friend of her father had notified her father of Ms. Bary's Facebook page which had information about her religious conversion. She stated her father confronted her in her bedroom, grabbed the laptop computer from her and threatened her with it during a conversation about the issue. During the exchange of words, Ms. Bary alleged her father lifted the laptop computer and reared it back as if to strike her with it, saying "I will kill you, tell me the truth". Ms. Bary stated she thought her father would strike her with the computer, but he did not.

In an interview with FDLE on August 27, 2009, Mr. Bary denied having threatened his daughter. He stated that in June, when he confronted his daughter in her bedroom regarding Christianity, he grabbed the laptop computer she was working on. He stated that he lifted it to throw the computer and decided not to, that he had invested too much money in it to break it.

In an interview on August 28, 2009, Mr. Brian Williams, an associate ofMs. Bary's, told FDLE that he told Columbus police (CPD report #090609442) that Ms. Bary had told him about her father threatening her with the laptop computer and about her mother finding Christian materials in her room in July 2009. Williams told CPD that he knew Ms. Bary would reach a runaway point.

During continuation of the interview with Ms. Bary, she stated throughout her childhood and into adolescence she was the victim of physical abuse by her father. She stated that on one occasion during her childhood, her father struck her in the face when she was in the family car en route to Mosque. She stated that she was wearing the traditional Islamic Hijab, a headscarf worn by Muslim women, and that she slumped down in the car in order to not be seen by others. Ms. Bary stated that her father struck her in the face apparently for showing embarrassment of her Islamic religion and customs. She also stated that her father struck her in the face when she was a young child for having interrupted a conversation between her parents. Ms. Bary said the last time she was a victim of abuse was when she was in middle school.

On August 27,2009, Mr. Bary was interviewed by FDLE. When asked about corporal or other punishment Mr. Bary stated that his daughter seldom was punished and when necessary, a scolding or denial of privileges was the norm. He denied ever striking her.

On August 27, 2009, FDLE agents interviewed Mrs. Bary regarding corporal punishment of her daughter. Mrs. Bary advised that usually a stern scolding was all that was required to correct her daughter.

On August 27, 2009, Rilvan Bary, Ms. Bary's older brother, was interviewed by FDLE.

Rilvan Bary stated he knew of no corporal punishment toward Ms. Bary, and of no incidents ofphysical abuse by their parents.

On August 27, 2009, FDLE checked with New Albany Middle School, New Albany, Ohio, for records of abuse as outlined by Ms. Bary. Mr. Jeff Warner, Director of Communications for the Plain Local School District in New Albany, stated that the district had already conducted searches of their records due to public and press interest in the case, and had found no evidence of any reporting of abuse or suspected abuse. He stated that Ohio is a mandatory abuse reporting state, so any suspected abuse had to be reported by law.

In another incident, Ms. Bary stated that a high school teacher, Ms. Debbie Crump, had offered to house her in the event that she (Ms. Bary) needed to escape repercussions from her family due to her Christian religious beliefs.

On August 31, 2009, FDLE spoke with high school teacher Ms. Debbie Crump by telephone. Ms. Crump stated that she was not aware of any danger toward Ms. Bary regarding her conversion to Christianity. She said that she made an offer to Ms. Bary to stay at her residence because Rilvan Bary was having parties at the Bary residence when the parents were out of town. Alcohol was allegedly being consumed by Rilvan's guests and Ms. Crump was concerned for Ms. Bary's safety in that environment.

In continuation of her interview, Ms. Bary stated that she was in fear of being killed for her "apostasy" or conversion from the Islamic faith to Christianity, which she characterized as a violation punishable by death in Islam. She referred to the act as an "honor killing." She did not articulate who would carry out the killing, but suggested that her father, male blood relative or unknown individuals in the Islamic community would be required to commit the killing.

On August 27, 2009, Mr. Bary was asked if there was any Islamic punishment for conversion from Islam to Christianity. Mr. Bary answered "absolutely not" and "there is no such thing as honor killing." An attorney present at the time, Mr. Romin Iqbal, characterized the concept as cultural and tribal, not related directly to the Islamic religious practice.

Ms. Bary discussed her upbringing and stated that she had been a cheerleader at New Albany High School. When asked if her father approved of her cheerleading she stated that her father had no real idea what the concept or activities involved in cheerleading were, and allowed it. She stated that she always wore sweatpants or other coverings to hide the short skirt of the cheerleading outfit from him. She stated her father had never been to an event in which she performed as a cheerleader. Furthermore, she stated the family had no photos of her cheering or team photos as would appear in a yearbook.

On August 27, 2009, Mr. Bary stated to FDLE that he knew about his daughter's cheerleading activities. He said that she had asked her mother for permission to cheer and was denied. Ms. Bary then asked Mr. Bary for his approval and he subsequently allowed her participation.. Mr. Bary stated that he drove her to cheerleading practice occasionally during the week He said he had never seen her perform due to his work commitments.

On August 27, 2009, Rilvan Bary told FDLE that his parents seemed to be supportive of his sister's cheerleading activities.

When FDLE and other investigators visited the Bary household on August 27, 2009, several photos of Ms. Bary dressed in her cheerleading uniform were prominently displayed in the family living room.

Ms. Bary stated she had made her conversion to Christianity over a period of years, but in June 2009 was baptized in Ohio by Brian Williams, a 21 year old associate. She stated that several of her associates at the House of Prayer in Columbus knew of her concerns and fears of being killed for her apostasy to Islam.

On August 27, 2009, FDLE interviewed three people at the House of Prayer in Columbus Ohio. All knew of Ms. Bary and were familiar with her Facebook page which listed her concerns over leaving the Islamic faith. The interviewees stated they did not know Ms. Bary well and did not discuss her situation directly with her.

Ms. Bary was asked how she came to Orlando. She stated that she had hitchhiked from a neighbor's house to the Columbus, Ohio Greyhound bus station on July 20, 2009. She stated she had arranged for a ticket through Christian associates she had met on the Facebook social networking page. She stated she traveled to Orlando, was met by the Law family and eventually taken in by the Lorenz family.

On August 28, 2009, Mr. Williams confirmed that he had picked Ms. Bary up at the Hopson's residence on July 20, 2009 and drove her to the Columbus Greyhound station for her trip to Florida. He further stated that she had preplanned locations around the country, including a location in Georgia, Jacksonville, Florida and Orlando, Florida, with Orlando being her primary planned sanctuary. Mr. Williams referred to the preplanning locations as Ms. Bary's "fire drills ".

On August 31,2009, DCF investigators told FDLE that when they first spoke to Ms. Bary about travelling to Florida, she told them she had used money saved from her job to purchase the ticket. FDLE's investigation has revealed that the ticket was purchased in Orlando under a fictitious name and provided to Ms. Bary. During her interview, Ms. Bary acknowledged that it was her signature on the ticket. FDLE has maintained a copy of this ticket for this case file.

On August 27, 2009, FDLE and DCF conducted an investigation in the greater Columbus, Ohio area in an attempt to verify Ms. Bary's allegations of criminal activity.

FDLE/DCF Investigators were accompanied to the Bary residence by Sgt. John Hurst of the Columbus P.D. Child Abuse Squad. The residence is located in an apartment complex.

Mr. Babak Darvish, Executive Director of the Council for American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Columbus and Mr. Romin Iqbal, Staff Attorney for CAIR OHIO were present.

Investigators interviewed Mr. Bary in a voluntary noncustodial setting. Mr. Bary was cooperative and asked to be able to tell his side of the story. Mr. Bary volunteered that he learned of his daughter's conversion to Christianity in early 2009. He stated that because she is still under age and living in his home he believed she should continue to study and practice Islam. However if she were to return from Florida, Ms. Bary would be allowed to study Christianity. Mr. Bary further stated that at the time she becomes an adult, she would be free to worship as she pleased. Mr. Bary denied having threatened his daughter. He stated that in June when he confronted his daughter in her bedroom regarding Christianity, he grabbed the laptop computer she was working on. He stated that he lifted it to throw the computer and decided not to as he had invested too much money in it to break it.

When asked about corporal or other punishment, Mr. Bary stated that his daughter seldom was punished and when necessary, a scolding or denial of privileges was the norm. He denied ever striking her.

Mr. and Mrs. Bary said that several years before, when Ms. Bary was in middle school, she wanted to babysit and created posters for advertisement. He stated that his daughter listed herself as a Christian and that Mr. and Mrs. Bary questioned her about the reference. He stated she never really answered the reference.

Mr. Bary stated that he knew about his daughter's cheerleading. He said that she had asked her mother for permission to cheer and was denied. Mr. Bary advised he ultimately gave her permission to participate. Mr. Bary stated that he drove Ms. Bary to cheerleading practice occasionally during the week. He advised he had never seen her perform due to his work commitments.

Mr. Bary stated that about a year ago, his son Rilvan told him that Ms. Bary was carrying a bible to school and that she was speaking with students about Christianity. Mr. Bary stated that he told Ms. Bary not to discuss religion in school as it was against the rules.

On August 27, 2009, FDLE agents interviewed Mrs. Bary in furtherance of this investigation. Mrs. Bary stated that her daughter had changed significantly in recent months, paying less attention to her younger brother and the family in favor of other activities including late night computer use and telephone calls on her cell phone. Mrs. Bary denied any knowledge of physical abuse of her daughter. Mrs. Bary stated that it was her husband's belief that their daughter should study and learn Islam first, but could study other religions also.

On August 27,2009, Rilvan Bary, Ms. Bary's older brother was interviewed by FDLE.

Rilvan Bary stated he knew of no corporal punishment toward Ms. Bary and of no incidents of physical abuse. He stated that his own situation within the residence was that he was a part-time resident who had gotten an apartment with friends but spent a lot of time at home. He knew of his sister's religious conversion through his friends at school.

He was asked by Ms. Bary to keep it quiet from her parents. He stated he noticed a change in her behavior and said that she had changed her group of friends to a much older group. Rilvan Bary stated that his circle of friends was predominantly American

Christians and that he had suffered no ill treatment for his associations. He admitted to being less than devout with his Muslim religious studies. Rilvan Bary stated his father did not force him to practice it although his father does pray five times daily. Rilvan Bary stated that his parents seemed to be supportive of his sister's cheerleading activities.

On August 28, 2009, Brian Williams contacted FDLE via telephone. Williams advised that he knew Ms. Bary and that he had baptized her in June 2009. Williams stated he had previously advised Columbus police (CPD report #090609442) that Ms. Bary had told him about her father threatening her with the laptop computer and about her mother finding the Christian materials in July 2009. Williams stated he told CPD that he knew Ms. Bary would reach a runaway point.

FDLE's investigation has not developed any information which supports an allegation of criminal activity in the state of Florida. Furthermore, our investigation has provided no clear evidence of criminal activity in other states which may be supportive of the above allegations. FDLE is prepared to assist the state of Ohio or any other entity in furtherance of investigative matters which may pertain to their areas of jurisdiction.

The Crazy Persian referenced in the video had the Iranian flag drapped around his neck and carried a yellow box with a variety of support Palestine/get rid of the Jews slogans. The purpose of the box was to solicit donations. So, every cop loves a crazy eyed guy with a big yellow mystery box roaming around the crowd...the US Capitol Police stopped the guy, searched him, then let him go, guess he wasn't a threat...no where have heard that before...

Muslims to America: We don't fear you

2009-09-26T18:27:00.000-07:00

This post is dedicated to the media's coverage of the Muslim prayer day on Capitol Hill.
Analysis then videos.

First and foremost from the Washington Post:
"'We wanted to bring people out to show you don't need to fear America,' said Imam Ali Jaaber of Dar-ul-Islam mosque in Elizabeth N.J., the service's main organizer."Or more accurately: We wanted to bring people out to show Muslims don't fear America.

In the same article they feature the standard Muslims as victims quote: "Stop being so scared!" thundered Imam Abdul Malik of New York. "You ain't done nothing wrong. Just do the work of Allah, and believe." and the WP described it as a "pep rally for the beleaguered U.S. Muslim community."

Beleagured by who? what? when? how? and why? Good journalism, ney activism, ney propoganda there Jacqui Salmon

What's a good way to describe the opposition? Criticism, discourse, self-defense,...how about Crusaders attacking innocent Muslims:
The organizers of a Muslim day of prayer scheduled to take place Friday in front of the U.S. Capitol have come under attack from some conservative Christians.

Further, how about the WP feature Hassen Abdellah, defender of the Umma, would have you believe Muslims have never done anything and issues a challenge:
"I don't understand. This is a simple event. All we want to do is pray," he said. "In America, name one event where Christians tried to pray and Muslims disrupted it."
I'll garuntee there were a substantial number of Christians, Jews, and other faiths who had their prayers disrupted on 9-11.

Let's here it for common sense:
In a statement, the Rev. Canon Julian Dobbs, leader of the Convocation of Anglicans in North America's Church and Islam Project, warned that the service is "part of a well-defined strategy to Islamize American society and replace the Bible with the Koran, the cross with the Islamic crescent and the church bells with the Athan [the Muslim call to prayer]."

Christian evangelist Lou Engle said the Friday event "is much more than a nice little Muslim gathering. It's an invocation of spiritual powers of an ideology" that "doesn't have the same set of values that our nation has had."

Below, D.L Adams of Stop the Islamization of America gets in more clear thinking. It would have been nice if Channel 7 had been there for the whole SIOA event instead of showing up at the last minute, but any press is good press.

Additionally, accordingly a reporter who overuses the dictionary and under-utilizes research, John Cosgrove "brandished a book called The Quranic Concept of War to demonstrate the supposedly aggressive and confrontational nature of ancient and modern Islam."

Could Mr. Cosgrove have "shown" "displayed" or "held" a book? No, clearly, no, he brandished it. And all the victorious battles that the Sunnah and Hadiths describe, and the jihadi warporn videos? Are those aggressive or confrontational? Clearly not to James Rosen of FoxNews.com.

Rosen then goes on to put a great quote in from Mr. Cosgrove, except he omitted that Mr. Cosgrove directly challenges Congressman Keith Ellison by name. Additionally, the quote was probably seleted for no other reason then considered to be fanatical.

Noting the arguments of some that Thomas Jefferson possessed a copy of the Koran, Cosgrove conceded this was true and added: "He had it so that he could know his enemy, so he could confront them, know them, kill them, and vanquish the Islamic pirates, the scourge of the seas and spreading tyranny abroad. After reading the Koran, founding the Marines and expanding the Navy to go kill them, I think he laid the Koran down thinking perhaps he was done. Sadly, it was not the case."

Finally, if Mr. Rosen would rewind the video that FoxNews shot, he would see in fact that this is wrong: "John Cosgrove, who identified himself as a counterterrorism consultant..."
Mr. Cosgrove was neither introduced, nor introduced himself as such. Mr. Cosgrove introduced himself as the American Constitution and Capitalism Defense Front Virgina President. But hey, why let facts get in the way of opinionated news?

9-12 Rally Vids

2009-09-16T09:16:00.000-07:00

I am still editing footage from the crowd, but I thought these videos will give you an idea of what it felt like. I am putting perhaps the most important video first. It is a call for Americans to make decisions as Americans, not as black/white/whatever Americans. As you have probably seen, playing the race card is an attempt to stifle free speech and debate on a very serious topic applying to all Americans. So note to those with "white guilt", get over it, our protected liberties and application of law and policy are guided by rule of law, not feelings.

Moran Town Hall Fall Out

2009-08-26T12:22:00.000-07:00

Aug. 25, 2009
South Lakes High School, Reston Va
8th Congressional District
Con. Moran invited Howard Dean to schelp for Obamacare, or as our sign correctly pointed out-national socialist healtcare.

Better video and reporting to follow, but wanted to get something out.

I didn't make the cut to get inside, so I hung around outside.

DNC sponsored astroturf:
Most of our signs are home made, no DNC astroturf signs for us, plenty of "Thank You" Obama for them. Bait and Switch alert: The DNC signs didn't say healthcare reform, health insurance reform. Subtle, but important, the ministry of propaganda has caught on that healtcare won't sell, but beating up on an insuracne bogeyman will.

Union Goons:
Union goons were in attendance. Local 10 Elevator Union.

Surpression of free speech:
As you'll see in a video below, we had sign with Obama as Joker, thank you DissentFromDayOne. We were told by a black Fairfax County School Security officer that we would have to keep the sign face down on the lawn or be thrown off for trespassing. So we took it directly to the a FXPD Captain and asked about the legality of this. Shame on us for not knowing the law, but now we know to do some research. The FXPD Captain didn't want to get in the middle of it, said there were different rules for schools. So, look for more events to take place at schools where the crowd can be more restricted in their free speech. Since no one could give us a straight answer, we applied the constitution and continued to hold the sign high for all the crowd to see. In related note: Con. Connolly hide behind elderly women to have his healthcare debate. Non retirement community residents were prohibited.

Overwhelming sporadic and unorganized opposition:
Outside, the crowd was a majority anti-socialist healthcare. However, when I asked these concerned citizens resiting government run econocare, none cited a particular organization that organized them, paid them to be there, told them what to say, how to act, and/or provided them protest material. Mostly self-mobilizing concerned citizens, expect for the LaRouche PAC people.

Racist:
Yes, we got the now obligatory racist. Yawn. It would be funny if it wasn't sad. You know you are winning the argument when the start calling you names.

Obamatons, Lemmings, and Useful Idiots:
Hard to distinguish, many O-no-care supporters shared all of these characteristics. Many would not engage in mono y mono debate. Those that did could not cite specific facts, just liberal talking points: Not having war would pay for it all, etc., I did have fun with the "its deficit neutral" argument. I reminded them that abstinence is "sex neutral." Neither one is realistic. In their closing statements they either ran away, insulted me, or a combo insult, declare victory, and retreat.

Here are the preliminary vids, more to follow.

Police and Fire Out In Force at ISA Hearing

2009-07-20T01:46:00.000-07:00

Fairfax PD and Fire Marshals Office were out in force. We had numerous reports from those who went to the Planning Commission hearing that they were intimidated and threatened on the way to their cars after the meeting. At this Supervisors hearing, I spoke with at least one individual who had to time his exit from the meeting to avoid a known threat against him. Then of course, there was the testimony from the brave man who lives in constant fear for his life from the Wahhabists that caused to flee to the US from Egypt. But here's Mernie Fitzgerald letting you know everything is ok, and that over 12 cops and 3 fire marshalls are the norm for planning meetings. Afterwards she told me that if I acted now, I could take advantage of a limited time offer while supplies last, to get a Shamwow, Snuggie, and secret Wall Street Insider trading tips for the low price of $19.95.

Perhaps they were afraid of all this.

Wealth Redistribution Continues Via Healthcare Tax

2009-06-10T06:50:00.001-07:00

Communism continues unabated. To pay for nationalized healthcare, those with current healthcare are going to be taxed. Yes, Virginia, there is a boogyman. So what used to be a benefit for those that had it, is now a liability, simply for working. The Government is going to decide how to use the income of productive members of society to better the lives of the unproductive. This is wealth redistribution. This is the targeted destruction of capitalism and free enterprise.

A Senate plan to overhaul the nation's health system is likely to include a new tax on some employer-provided health benefits that exceed the value of the basic plan offered to federal employees, currently about $13,000 a year for a family of four, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee said yesterday.

Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.) said he is drafting the health reform measure, which he expects to unveil next week. He told reporters that taxing employer-provided benefits is "perhaps the best way to raise money for an overhaul of the health-care system" and offered details about the form that tax is likely to take.

Baucus said his proposal is likely to cap benefits at "a level higher than the actual benefit that members of Congress receive today." An employer-provided plan worth less than that level would remain tax-free, he said, while any benefit exceeding the cap would be taxed as ordinary income.

Such a tax, if adopted, would be phased in over "several years," Baucus said. And it would be likely to "grandfather" in health benefits set as part of a collective-bargaining agreement, he said, allowing union plans to remain tax-free until new contracts can be negotiated.

Baucus declined to say how much money the proposal would generate. The nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation estimates that taxing employer benefits above the value of the Federal Employees Health Benefit Plan, adjusted for inflation, would generate nearly $420 billion over the next 10 years -- a sizable chunk of the $1 trillion or more likely to be needed to expand coverage for the uninsured.

A higher cap and exemptions for unions would make the tax more politically palatable but would diminish the amount of money it would raise. Baucus said the sums under discussion remain "significant" but added that he is looking at a variety of other money-raising options, including Obama's plan to limit the value of itemized deductions for families earning more than $250,000 a year.

At a closed-door meeting of the Finance Committee last month, the Joint Committee on Taxation also provided estimates for repealing the tax deduction for certain large medical expenses ($180 billion over 10 years), a new tax on flexible savings accounts and health reimbursement accounts (about $70 billion over 10 years), a new 3-cent tax on sugary drinks (about $50 billion over 10 years) and higher taxes on alcohol (about $60 billion over 10 years). A more dramatic proposal -- taxing half of all employer-provided health premiums -- would generate $1.2 trillion over 10 years, according to a memo provided to Finance Committee members. Baucus's comments came after a lunchtime meeting of Senate Democrats at which lawmakers began hashing out the complex details of a health overhaul. "This is the first week of crunch time," said Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.). "This is the first day when, instead of looking at the car, we're starting to test-drive it."

Democratic leaders in both the House and Senate yesterday continued to trickle out details of proposals without saying how they would raise the money. The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee released an outline that would require the vast majority of businesses to contribute to workers' health costs and would impose tight restrictions on the practices of insurance companies. Like a developing House plan, it would include government-sponsored insurance for people who have trouble finding coverage on the private market -- an idea adamantly opposed by Republicans.

Omeish is a Loser

2009-06-10T06:26:00.000-07:00

35th Virginia Delegate Democratic Candidate Esam Omeish lost in the Democratic primary.
As a pediatric doctor it follows he would run on a healthcare platform. Which is a much better platform than Pro-Jihad, Anti-Israel, Islamist Supremacy. I suppose getting thrown off of Gov. Kaine's Immigration Panel didn't help either.

Stop Omeish has the breakdown here. 1,039 voted for Omeish, which was 15% of the vote, which also means he beat someone. As one of 4 contenders, he finished 3rd.

Open questions: Was Omeish really interested in elected office? Is this a smoke screen? Is this a CAIR et al experiment, role out a well documented offender and see what sticks, a setup for a more "moderate" candidate later?

Videos and then Paul Sperry's good work:

Paul Sperry at FrontPage lays it all out:
The Great Al-Qaeda "Patriot" By: Paul Sperry
FrontPageMagazine.com | Monday, April 09, 2007

A man identified as "Esam Omesh" spoke just before Cindy Sheehan at last month's antiwar rally that Sheehan headlined in Washington.

Following chants of "Impeach Bush!" from shivering protesters, Omesh took the podium and exhorted "brothers and sisters" to condemn Bush for the deaths of "more than 650,000 Iraqi lives." He demanded the White House "pull our troops out of Iraq now" and "end the war today."

The speaker counted himself among the "great American patriots" who braved the cold to march on Washington and protest the war that day.

While there may have been legitimate voices there, this speaker decidedly was not one of them. Not because he's Muslim, but because he's an Islamist tied to an al-Qaida fund raiser and the spiritual adviser to the 9/11 hijackers.

Turns out it his real name is Esam S. Omeish, and he runs a nonprofit group in Washington called the Muslim American Society, which the FBI believes is the U.S. branch of the dangerous Muslim Brotherhood, a worldwide jihadist movement that operates like the mafia. The secret Islamist society counts Osama bin Laden, Ayman al-Zawahri, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and blind sheik Omar Abdel Rahman among its members. Its motto: "The Quran is our constitution, the prophet is our guide; Death for the glory of Allah is our greatest ambition."

His office is right next door to the old office of one of Al-Qaida's top fund raisers in America, Abdurahman Alamoudi, before he was jailed a few years ago. And it's located in the same Alexandria, Va., business park as the former office of Osama bin Laden's nephew, before he hightailed it back to Saudi Arabia after 9/11.

"Omesh" is not the legal spelling of his name. He may spell it that way for the media, but that's not how it's listed in court documents I've examined. The correct spelling is Omeish with an "i." Perhaps he leaves it out to avoid links to his brother, Mohamed S. Omeish.

As I first reported in my book, "Infiltration: How Muslim Spies and Subversives Have Penetrated Washington," Mohamed Omeish headed the U.S. branch of one of bin Laden's favorite Saudi charities, the International Islamic Relief Organization, which was raided after 9/11. Tax records I've obtained show Omeish shared an office with Alamoudi, the convicted al-Qaida-tied terrorist and godfather of the Muslim mafia in America. This is the same "moderate" Muslim leader who federal prosecutors caught on tape complaining bin Laden hadn't killed enough Americans.

It gets worse. Esam S. Omeish also sits on the board of the 9/11-tied mosque in Washington that helped the hijackers get licenses and housing, and whose imam prepared them for martyrdom operations in private closed-door sessions. Omeish personally hired the imam, Anwar Aulaqi, who fled the country on a Saudi jet about a year after 9/11 (the FBI now wants another crack at questioning him).

Dar al-Hijrah Islamic Center, which tax records show has received large donations from the Islamic Relief Organization, is a Muslim Brotherhood bastion. Another former imam and current prayer leader, for example, is an admitted Brotherhood member from the Sudan. The mosque's deed was signed by an Alamoudi crony who has admitted participating in the Brotherhood's "Ikhwan" movement in America.

Dar al-Hijrah is a turnstile for terrorists and terror suspects. A prayer leader, Sheikh Mohammed al-Hanooti, was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the first World Trade Center bombing. Other dubious mosque members have included: Alamoudi, Abdullah bin Laden, Osama's nephew; Hamas leader and fugitive Mousa Abu Marzook and his partners Ismail Elbarasse and Abdelhaleem Ashqar, who was convicted of obstruction of justice in February; convicted Virginia Jihad Network leader Randall "Ismail" Royer, a former CAIR official; and Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, an al-Qaida operative recently convicted of plotting to assassinate President Bush.

Leaders of the mosque rallied around Ali, calling the trial a Zionist "witch hunt," even after it became obvious he was guilty.

What's more, the phone number to the mosque was found in the German apartment of Ramzi bin al-Shibh, roommate of 9/11 ringleader Mohamed Atta. Atta's deputy "emir" in the "raid" on America, Nawaf al-Hazmi, worshipped at Dar al-Hijrah, along with the pilot who crashed the plane into the Pentagon.

Back to mosque leader Esam Omeish, the "American patriot." Court records I've obtained show he put his home up for bond collateral in 2004 to help spring from jail a terrorist suspect who was caught allegedly casing the Chesapeake bridge for attack. His dubious pal Ismail Elbarasse is a founding member of Dar al-Hijrah.

Omeish's house is just down the road from the mosque in Falls Church, Va., and just a few blocks in the other direction from the Islamist business park in Alexandria. One of Omeish's neighbors on his cul-de-sac is the former bookkeeper for terror banker Soliman Biheiri. He started an Islamic investment bank that included Hamas leader Marzook and Abdullah bin Laden as major investors. Biheiri, a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, was recently convicted of lying about his connections to Marzook in an investigation into his terrorist ties.

It's one big happy Islamist family in Omeish's neck of the woods.

This is who is rallying opposition to the war. Omeish may claim to be an "American patriot," but even Cindy Sheehan should know better. The people she's consorting with would not have shed a tear had her son been beheaded in Iraq.

Obama: USA=Muslim Nation, Share Nukes with the Umma

2009-06-03T06:19:00.000-07:00

Good news Al Queda, you can stop fighting, the black flag of Islam is over the White House. Obama says I have experienced Islam (I am Muslim) and so I will not fight you, in fact, I'll give you nukes. Hey, why don't you just come on over and do Michelle too. So the question is, is Obama an Islamist or Socialist Manchurian candidate?

The other day we heard a comment from a White House aide that never would have been uttered during the primaries or general election campaign.

During a conference call in preparation for President Obama’s trip to Cairo, Egypt, where he will address the Muslim world, deputy National Security Adviser for Strategic Communications Denis McDonough said “the President himself experienced Islam on three continents before he was able to — or before he’s been able to visit, really, the heart of the Islamic world — you know, growing up in Indonesia, having a
Muslim father — obviously Muslim Americans (are) a key part of Illinois and Chicago.”

Given widespread unease and prejudice against Muslims among Americans, especially in the wake of 9/11, the Obama campaign was perhaps understandably very sensitive during the primaries and general election to downplay the candidate’s Muslim roots.

The candidate was even offended when referred to by his initials “BHO,” because he considered the use of his middle name, “Hussein,” an attempt to frighten voters.

With insane rumors suggesting he was some sort of Muslim Manchurian candidate, then-Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., and his campaign did everything they could to emphasize his Christianity and de-emphasize the fact that his father, Barack Obama Sr., was born Muslim.

The candidate’s comment at a Boca Raton, Florida, town hall meeting on May 22, 2008, was typical: “My father was basically agnostic, as far as I can tell, and I didn’t know him,” he said.

In September 2008, candidate Obama told a Pennsylvania crowd, “I know that I’m not your typical presidential candidate and I just want to be honest with you. I know that the temptation is to say, ‘You know what? The guy hasn’t been there that long in Washington. You know, he’s got a funny name. You know, we’re not sure about him.’ And that’s what the Republicans when they say this isn’t about issues, it’s about personalities, what they’re really saying is, ‘We’re going to try to scare people about Barack. So we’re going to say that, you know, maybe he’s got Muslim connections.’…Just making stuff up.”

Back then, the campaign’s “Fight the Smears” website addressed the candidate’s faith without mentioning his father’s religion:

“Barack Obama is a committed Christian. He was sworn into the Senate on his family Bible. He has regularly attended church with his wife and daughters for years. But shameful, shadowy attackers have been lying about Barack’s religion, claiming he is a Muslim instead of a committed Christian. When people fabricate stories about someone’s faith to denigrate them politically, that’s an attack on people of all faiths. Make sure everyone you know is aware of this deception.”

The website also provided quotes from the Boston Globe and Newsweek mentioning his father’s roots.

Since the election, however, with the threat of the rumors at least somewhat abated, the White House has been increasingly forthcoming about the president’s roots. Especially when reaching out to the Muslim world.

In his April 6 address to the Turkish Parliament, President Obama referenced how many “Americans have Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim majority country. I know, because I am one of them.”

Obama Submits to Iran: Gives Hotdogs and Nukes

2009-06-02T12:52:00.000-07:00

The President has gone rogue! Well that implies he was ever on our side to begin with.
So Iran kills your soldiers, holds your embassy hostage, kills more of your troops and supports your adversaries in the Southern Hemisphere...well hell, the only sensible thing to do is to give them hotdogs and let them build nuke plants. WTF? Manchurian candidate FTW.

"In a new overture to Iran, the Obama administration has authorized U.S. embassies around the world to invite Iranian officials to Independence Day parties they host on or around July 4th."

"I do believe is that Iran has legitimate energy concerns, legitimate aspirations"

To asshats that voted for him, how do you like this change? Wave goodbye to Israel.

Religon of Peace Strikes Again

But how could this happen the Quran and Hadith are harmless books that contain no violence, Islam is a religion of peace, Barrack Obama knew nothing about Resko or Blago and is a legitimate President, capitalist and defender of the constitution, hey have I told you about this real estate investment opportunity to be part of the a bridge ownership group, we're being funded from a wealthy Nigerian that is willing give us some money in exchange for some assistance selling flying pigs. Very similar to the "get me some jihad" peacenicks that wanted to slaughter the sons of apes and pigs.

Muslim jihadi killing our soldiers on American soil .............

UPDATE: Robert Spencer breaks this stunning development:

I have learned from a well-placed source that Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, who killed one soldier and wounded another at a a Little Rock military recruiting center today, and who faces charges of terrorism as well as first-degree murder, has recently returned from Yemen, where he studied jihad with an Islamic scholar there.

Apparently the Islamic scholar under whom this American convert to Islam studied was yet another misunderstander of Islam's true, peaceful teachings.
Jihad terror on American soil: Muslim kills soldier, wounds another at Arkansas military recruiting center Jihadwatch

"Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad -- a 24-year-old Little Rock resident formerly known as Carlos Bledsoe -- faces a first-degree murder charge and 15 counts of engaging in a terrorist act..."

"Suspect arrested in Arkansas recruiting center shooting," from CNN, June 1 (thanks to Don):

(CNN) -- An Arkansas man was arrested Monday in connection with a shooting at a Little Rock military recruiting center that killed one soldier and wounded another, authorities said.

Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad -- a 24-year-old Little Rock resident formerly known as Carlos Bledsoe -- faces a first-degree murder charge and 15 counts of engaging in a terrorist act, Little Rock Police Chief Stuart Thomas said. The terrorist counts stem from the shots fired at an occupied building.

The soldier who was killed was identified as Pvt. William Long, 24, of Conway, and the wounded soldier is Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula, 18, of Jacksonville, Thomas said....

Although military officials initially believed that the shooting was a random act, Thomas said police think the shooter acted alone "with the specific purpose of targeting military personnel."...

Thomas said police recovered three guns from Muhammad's black Ford SUV: an SKS semi-automatic rifle, a .22-caliber rifle and a pistol....

Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad had "political and religious motives." -- so says "Shooter, Victims Identified in West LR Shooting," from KATV7.com, June 1 (thanks to Benedict).

Courtesy of Fox News. Lets just do a little bit of role reversal and see what would have happened if it was uniformed and armed Klan members outside of this Philly polling station saying "You are about to be ruled by the white man, nigger." OMG, the heavens would erupt, the sky would fall, Al Sharpton's hair would spontaneously ignite, and nationwide the streets would burst into civil disorder...instead, the guilty walk free and a tranquility resembling the expression of a secretly suicidal stepford wife lies upon the land. I guess this is what politically correct equality means.

Fox News has it here:

Charges brought against three members of the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense under the Bush administration have been dropped by the Obama Justice Department, FOX News has learned.

The charges stemmed from an incident at a Philadelphia polling place on Election Day 2008 when three members of the party were accused of trying to threaten voters and block poll and campaign workers by the threat of force -- one even brandishing what prosecutors call a deadly weapon.

The three black panthers, Minister King Samir Shabazz, Malik Zulu Shabazz and Jerry Jackson were charged in a civil complaint in the final days of the Bush administration with violating the voter rights act by using coercion, threats and intimidation. Shabazz allegedly held a nightstick or baton that prosecutors said he pointed at people and menacingly tapped it. Prosecutors also say he "supports racially motivated violence against non-blacks and Jews."

The Obama administration won the case last month, but moved to dismiss the charges on May 15.

Click here to see FOX News video from the scene on election day.

The complaint says the men hurled racial slurs at both blacks and whites.

A poll watcher who provided an affidavit to prosecutors in the case noted that Bartle Bull, who worked as a civil rights lawyer in the south in the 1960's and is a former campaign manager for Robert Kennedy, said it was the most blatant form of voter intimidation he had ever seen.

In his affidavit, obtained by FOX News, Bull wrote "I watched the two uniformed men confront voters and attempt to intimidate voters. They were positioned in a location that forced every voter to pass in close proximity to them. The weapon was openly displayed and brandished in plain sight of voters."

He also said they tried to "interfere with the work of other poll observers ... whom the uniformed men apparently believed did not share their preferences politically," noting that one of the panthers turned toward the white poll observers and said "you are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker."

A spokesman for the Department of Justice told FOX News, "The Justice Department was successful in obtaining an injunction that prohibits the defendant who brandished a weapon outside a Philadelphia polling place from doing so again. Claims were dismissed against the other defendants based on a careful assessment of the facts and the law. The department is committed to the vigorous prosecution of those who intimidate, threaten or coerce anyone exercising his or her sacred right to vote."

Libel Lawfare Quicklook With Video

2009-05-19T19:43:00.000-07:00

I attended the Middle East Forum's Libel Lawfare Conference and all I got was a 100 year old English translation of the Urdu booklet "The British Government and Jihad." Actually, I got far more, as I'm sure most of the participants did from this excellent conference courtesy of the Legal Project at the Middle East Forum. Hat's off to Brooke Goldstein for organizing it, sorry I missed your opening remarks. The story of the Urdu booklet on Jihad took place during lunch, and will have to wait for another time. But since I may have your attention, will proceed with a condensed review of the day supported by a bunch of shaky videos.

Within the plush embrace of the Capital Hilton, three blocks north of the Comrade in Chief's residence, the conference offered panelists with domestic and foreign perspectives on lawfare. From the morning session came the following items for consideration:

Frank Gaffney: Religious and Secular trans-nationalism has America in a pincer movement that if not opposed will end free speech as we know it. The first amendment won't be revoked, but yielding sovereignty to global organizations, campus speech codes, and lawsuits will "chill" free speech to the point that no one will want to exercise, or be able to afford to, their right. Related point and action item: Say No to Koh. Call your Congressman and Senators: No on Harold Koh!

RFDAH Note: Two words that should stop being used in the discourse of this subject because of over-repetition and/or irrelevance: chilling effect and speaking respectfully. Chill is just over-used and I want viciously passionate arguments. If they mean civil discourse vs. jerry springer, that's different, but respect grants quarters to an enemy that would afford us none.

Prof. Alan M. Dershowitz: Italy indicted him on comments he made about an Italian judge from his office in Boston. Italy extended its jurisdiction from Rome to Baaahston. He flew to Italy to confront them, and will take his course through all the highest courts of the land in Eurabia. Point being, when no crime has been committed you must be acquitted. Slinking away with an unenforceable foreign judgment against you is unacceptable and does nothing to further the cause. Pick your head up, fight the charges, demand to be cleared, promote, and get the US gov to more actively promote our model of free speech.

Legal system as it is has most responsible media (TV and journalism) with the least protection and the least responsible (internet) gets the most protection. This is greatly skewing the system.

Perhaps the best moments were his exchanges with Gaffney on Sharia. It would be the cowards way to say Dershowitz was a prickly liberal refusing to acknowledge the realities of the world. Dershowitz challenged Gaffney, "you have not made the case." Dershowitz would go on to acknowledge and request the opportunity to learn more about Sharia, but his point stands. If he represents the people we are trying to win over, we need to improve our game. You may be right, but you're not being winning the argument. I'm pretty sure the Law and Order scene change music was going to play at any second.

Finally, free speech in neutral and restrictions work both ways. Dershowitz kept going back to Kashrut law protections offering protection for Sharia. RFDAH Note: How can you be pro-Israel and pro-sharia (he defended various sharia compliance scenarios, not enough detail in scenarios for him to really to make an informed opinion if he wasn't already savvy on shraia. )?

Andrew C. McCarthy: US government has a duty to protect the freedom of US citizens over the rest of the world.

James Taranto: Free Speech not in danger based on SCOTUS Brandenburg v. Ohio. Works both ways though. Advocating violence is protected speech but incitement to violence is not protected. RFDAH Note: Disagree, free speech very much threatened.

John J. Walsh: Out in deep left field. Everything you'd expect from a defense lawyer. His lone good point, libel tourism laws as proposed could be too broad and strip those actually damaged of the right to legal recourse. His solution: an international body to determine a solution. RFDAH gags.

Then began the peanut gallery circus of questions, and it was a notable peanut gallery featuring Charles Jacobs, a Pakistani Imam, and a host of others distinguished individuals. RFDAH note on question etiquette in general. I know the nerves may get you, the excitement may overtake you...but get to the damn point. Too many, and one is too many, first offered cathartic releases before getting to an actual question. This left about eight people without time to ask their questions, and I really wanted to hear what the lady in the festooned hijab was going to ask.

Lunch break. I didn't have access to the lunch time Invitation Only session, so I decided to do the next best thing, go right to the elephant in the room, the one who stood out amongst a sea yamicas and gentiles, the Imam with the big hat. I spent 30 minutes debating the Pakistani Imam and his Senegal national companion about Islamist aggression, Free Speech, and a Prophet of Mercy that beheaded 600 Jews. That is another story, but I will reveal this, while the give and take was good, and I walked away feeling these men were not wahabbists, the Imam did blame the beheading of the defeated Jewish tribe on the Jews themselves. It is part of the bizarre and enshrined victimhood in Islam, even among the Imam's ostensibly peaceful group banned by the Pakistani government, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community.

My notes on the afternoon are brief as the I put down pen and picked up camera. The video is shaky, so my recommendation is turn off the monitor and turn up the speakers. In summary, while the UK is moving to toughen its libel laws to address the libel tourism issue, the EU is an unsalvageable abomination that should be razed to the ground and not started over.

Missed David Harris.
Ok, as I'm trying to get the videos up, I realized they are too long and I need to cut them down, which isn't going to happen at midnight. I will get the vids up sometime by the end of the week. Alan Mendoza and Douglas Murray clips are definitely worth coming back for.

Stimulus: The Chicago Way

2009-05-15T06:21:00.001-07:00

Here is what happens when Chicago politics and a Leftist 'Soft' Junta gain access to power:
1) Extend voter fraud by tampering with the census
2) Begin paybacks, construction projects, labor unions, hurry legislation, push it through, squash dissent which is what you can do when you've got the media in your pocket. This leads us to, stimulus checks for dead people, a natural extension of the dead voting. We've either got a zombie horde or a thugs in office, but perhaps I repeat myself.

Crime Terror Nexus Arrest Near Radical Falls Church Mosque?

2009-05-14T11:06:00.000-07:00

Fairfax County Police led a massive bust near the popular and growing radical Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Falls Church, VA. The strip mall down the street that is hangout of choice for the Islamist enclave surrounding Dar al-Hijrah is called Build America, thus the title Operation Build America. Time again we've seen the nexus between petty crime, organized crime, and jihadis. Hopefully this made a bigger impact than can be released to the public. You must click on the link to read the names and see pictures of those arrested. 16 of 27 middle eastern males between ages 18 and 48. Just goes to show that even though FXPD had a Jihadi mole, the boys in blue can still kick a little ass.

Fairfax County, home to Falls Church, is one of the major frontlines of Islamist aggression. We have:
The Dar al-Hijrah Wahabbi corridor which is a massive Islamist enclave built up around the mosque
Tax payer subsidized K-B.A. in Jihad via the Islamic Saudi Academy and George Mason (ISA is not taxed and Mason is public)that has already produced one convicted terrorist
Gitmo trials and Gitmo prisoners coming
And our first pro-jihad candidate

This bust is only the tip of the iceberg. Its a good start, but just that, a start.

Undercover Operation Nets 143 Criminal Charges

On Wednesday, May 6, over 135 law enforcement personnel participated in concluding a year-long undercover investigation. Operation Build America was launched in May 2008 to better understand the criminal activity taking place in and around the Build America Shopping Center. The shopping center is nestled in the Skyline community in the 3800 block of South George Mason Drive. Community concerns of illegal activities in the shopping center coupled with indicators that crime was in the upswing sprung the operation into motion.

The investigation successfully infiltrated several criminal organizations and businesses operating around the center. Undercover police officers identified nearly 40 people suspected of criminal activity that ranges from property crimes to crimes of violence. The undercover operation successfully recovered stolen firearms and illegal narcotics including cocaine and marijuana.

Collectively, 143 criminal arrest warrants and 15 search warrants were issued in this undercover operation.

The success of the operation can be attributed to the coordinated effort of several units and agencies:

* Fairfax County Police
o Criminal Intelligence Division
o Organized Crime and Narcotics Division
o Special Weapons and Tactics Team
o Mason, Sully, and Mount Vernon Police District Stations
* Town of Herndon Police Department
* Department of Public Safety Communications
* Fairfax County Code Enforcement Strike Team
* Fairfax County Office of the Sheriff
* City of Alexandria Police Department
* United States Marshals Service
* United States Postal Inspector’s Office
* Northern Virginia Cigarette Tax Board
* Northern Virginia Gang Task Force
* Virginia Alcohol Beverage Control

Virginia is For Gitmo Lovers

We will know more about sex offenders than we will about the Gitmo detainees coming to the US.

In McLean, where you can't throw a rock without hitting a spook, one of the Uyghers will be hosted, while other Jihadis will be sprinkled throughout the NoVa area to ensure everyone gets their mandatory multi-cultural exposure to Islamist aggression.

I am interested to see how their cultural assimilation will go. How will a group that ripped a TV off the wall because an ad featured a woman with exposed arms (not Michelle Obama) deal with sun dresses in Old Town, George Mason University co-eds, and the abundance of female soccer players, northern Virginia swim league, joggers, and outdoor enthusiast...God forbid they were let loose around the beautiful people that comprise Hill staffers.

What can we surmise will occur? How about a CAIR/Leftist combo propaganda extravaganza?, so odds are these guys will be kept on a leash, at least long enough for photo-ops, sob stories, and lawsuits.

I disagree with the puke's analysis in the video, but it documents the story of these innocent criminals...gag.

WND OBAMA WATCH CENTRAL
Pentagon official blames U.S. for al-Qaida attacks
Worked for George Soros, argued for government control of media
Posted: April 20, 2009

Rosa Brooks

She believes al-Qaida was an "obscure group" turned into a massive threat due to U.S. policies.

She's referred to former President Bush as "our torturer in chief" and a "psychotic who need(s) treatment" while comparing Bush's arguments for waging a war on terrorism to Adolf Hitler's use of political propaganda.

She's worked on behalf of George Soros' philanthropic foundation.

Meet Rosa Brooks, the Obama administration's new adviser to Michelle Fluornoy, the undersecretary of defense for policy, a position described as one of the most influential in the Pentagon.

"I prefer to think of (my new position) as my personal government bailout," Brooks wrote in a departing piece at the Los Angeles Times, where she served as a regular columnist.

Brooks' new boss earlier this month briefed Congress on U.S. policy in Pakistan and Afghanistan, two countries for which she has enormous power concerning drafting future military doctrine.

"Brooks will wield an extraordinary degree of influence in helping shape U.S. policy. Her extreme views should therefore be closely scrutinized," wrote Nile Gardiner, a contributor to the London Telegraph's online blog.

Indeed, Brook's recent L.A. Times columns evidence views some may find concerning.

In 2007, she labeled al-Qaida as "little more than an obscure group of extremist thugs, well financed and intermittently lethal but relatively limited in their global and regional political pull. On 9/11, they got lucky. … Thanks to U.S. policies, al-Qaida has become the vast global threat the administration imagined it to be in 2001."

Also that year, she called the surge in Iraq a "feckless plan" that is "too little too late" with "no realistic likelihood that it will lead to an enduring solution in Iraq." The surge was widely credited with helping to stabilize Iraq.

Brooks wrote Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney "should be treated like psychotics who need treatment. … Impeachment's not the solution to psychosis, no matter how flagrant."

She also penned a column about Bush entitled "Our torturer-in-chief" in which she inferred attacks against the U.S. were a result of torture policies.

"Today, the chickens are coming home to roost," she fumed, but "the word 'accountability' isn't in the White House dictionary."

In another column she referred to the regimes of Iran and North Korea as "foreign authoritarians," while calling the Bush administration a "homegrown" authoritarian regime.

In a column last month, Brooks claimed the Bush administration's Office of Legal Counsel arguments for prosecuting the war on terrorism were similar to tactics used by Hitler.

According to Brooks: "How did such dangerously bad legal memos ever get taken seriously in the first place? One answer is suggested by the so-called Big Lie theory of political propaganda, articulated most infamously by Adolf Hitler. Ordinary people 'more readily fall victim to the big lie than the small lie,' wrote Hitler."

Last week, FoxNews.com highlighted Brook's departing column in which she argued for more "direct government support for public media" and government licensing of the news.

Wrote Brooks: "Years of foolish policies have left us with a choice: We can bail out journalism, using tax dollars and granting licenses in ways that encourage robust and independent reporting and commentary, or we can watch, wringing our hands, as more and more top journalists are laid off."

In response, L. Brent Bozell, president of the Media Research Center, countered, "The day that the government gets involved in the news media you see the end of the democratic process, because an independent news media is absolutely essential to the success of a democracy."

Brooks is also a law professor at the Georgetown University Law Center, where she serves as director of Georgetown Law School's Human Rights Center. She previously served as special counsel to the president at Soros' Open Society Institute. She has consulted for Human Rights Watch and served as a board member of Amnesty International USA.

DHS Secretary uses Jedi powers to advance agenda of Sith Lord.

In order to allow easily manipulated illegal immigrants the right to vote without being a citizen (as they do in socialist multi-cultural suicidal Europe), Obama et. al, are trying to stop the discussion about our sieve of a southern border. May also tie into their North American Union goals. In order to accomplish this distraction, why not have your lackey say something terribly outlandish about the northern border. This could all be part of some grand plan, she's just an idiot, or both.

Story here and in following oped. Congrats to Obama for continuing to piss off our trusted allies: UK and Canada.

National Post editorial board

National Post Published: Wednesday, April 22, 2009
Can someone please tell us how U. S. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano got her job? She appears to be about as knowledgeable about border issues as a late-night radio call-in yahoo.

In an interview broadcast Monday on the CBC, Ms. Napolitano attempted to justify her call for stricter border security on the premise that "suspected or known terrorists" have entered the U. S. across the Canadian border, including the perpetrators of the 9/11 attack.

All the 9/11 terrorists, of course, entered the United States directly from overseas. The notion that some arrived via Canada is a myth that briefly popped up in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, and was then quickly debunked.

Informed of her error, Ms. Napolitano blustered: "I can't talk to that. I can talk about the future. And here's the future. The future is we have borders."

Just what does that mean, exactly?

Just a few weeks ago, Ms. Napolitano equated Canada's border to Mexico's, suggesting they deserved the same treatment. Mexico is engulfed in a drug war that left more than 5,000 dead last year, and which is spawning a spillover kidnapping epidemic in Arizona. So many Mexicans enter the United States illegally that a multi-billion-dollar barrier has been built from Texas to California to keep them out.

In Canada, on the other hand, the main problem is congestion resulting from cross-border trade. Not quite the same thing, is it?

This invasion is precisely why people take to the streets to demand enforcement of our sovereign borders. Unfortunately, it seems the only men left in this country are old ladies, and God bless them for it, give'em hell grandma!

Great Prenteder Encourages Destruction of America, Dissolution of the Union

2009-04-16T22:00:00.001-07:00

Bottom line, Obama is weak and everyone is taking a piece.
He is weak because he has no core principals of value.
The American Nation was founded on Judeo Christian principals, so when you are the President of that nation and choose to cover up grande nino Jesus, people know you are against the America of our Founders.

Then your security apparatus identifies its combat veterans as security threats, while permitting the Muslim Brotherhood to flourish.

Junky savages with small arms are tieing up millions of dollars of military attention and threaten to kill US citizens wherever they are found, and you offer a grand plan to do everything other than the one thing they will actually respect, a definite military strike.

Obama then decides that our enemies can in fact outlast America and announces its time to talk with Cuba.

No wonder he's not getting respect from other world leaders and why States Rights and secession is back on the table as serious option, and rightly so.

Lone Star Strikes Back, Tells Fed Don't Mess with Texas

2009-04-14T07:37:00.000-07:00

AUSTIN – Gov. Rick Perry today joined state Rep. Brandon Creighton and sponsors of House Concurrent Resolution (HCR) 50 in support of states’ rights under the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

“I believe that our federal government has become oppressive in its size, its intrusion into the lives of our citizens, and its interference with the affairs of our state,” Gov. Perry said. “That is why I am here today to express my unwavering support for efforts all across our country to reaffirm the states’ rights affirmed by the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. I believe that returning to the letter and spirit of the U.S. Constitution and its essential 10th Amendment will free our state from undue regulations, and ultimately strengthen our Union.”

A number of recent federal proposals are not within the scope of the federal government’s constitutionally designated powers and impede the states’ right to govern themselves. HCR 50 affirms that Texas claims sovereignty under the 10th Amendment over all powers not otherwise granted to the federal government.

It also designates that all compulsory federal legislation that requires states to comply under threat of civil or criminal penalties, or that requires states to pass legislation or lose federal funding, be prohibited or repealed.

HCR 50 is authored by Representatives Brandon Creighton, Leo Berman, Bryan Hughes, Dan Gattis and Ryan Guillen.

Taliban Lash 17 Year Old Girl

CLOSE [X] 17-year-old girl being beaten by Islamic radicals in Pakistan’s northwestern region of Swat, where Sharia law was introduced after the government reached a truce with the Taleban in February.

A local Taleban commander in the militant stronghold of Matta, 25 miles from the regional capital, Mingora, ordered the girl to be flogged a week ago after accusing her of adultery, according to local r More..eporters.

But some residents of Matta have accused the commander of ordering the beating to get revenge after the girl refused to accept his proposal of marriage.

“Please! Enough! Enough!” the girl is heard crying in Pashtu, the language of the tribes who dominate northwestern Pakistan – now the main hub of Taleban and al-Qaeda activity.

At another point, she cries: “I am repenting, my father is repenting what I have done, my grandmother is repenting what I have done...”

The man flogging her is also heard abusing his colleague as he struggles to hold her down and stop her covering her backside with her hands.

“You should hold her tightly so she doesn’t move,”

Video: Inside Saudi Academy Hearing

2009-03-23T08:38:00.000-07:00

In response to the WaPo article dismissing concerns about the ISA teachings, realcourage.com sums it up best:

For equality and liberty to survive, supremacism of any kind must be consistently challenged without fear. If this had been a South African-supported school during the apartheid era, with a documented history of textbooks teaching children white supremacism and hatred to other races, I would have the same problem with it. Or any other institution with a history of supremacist textbooks teaching hate and
intolerance.

This is why it is so important to defend our shared inalienable human rights of equality and liberty, as I am doing at realcourage.org

Would those who claim we don't have a right to defend equality and liberty call our defense as "hate propaganda" if we were challenging an institution supporting racial supremacists? Or challenging South African apartheid advocates? Or challenging the history of racial supremacism in America?

Caught red handed Islam cries foul

2009-03-23T08:11:00.001-07:00

From the faithful over at Islam In Action:

In the wake of finding out that the FBI had an informant in a California Mosque, 11 major US Muslim organizations have threatened to end all outreach programs with the FBI. Demanding that the FBI changes their ways in dealing with potential Islamic threats. Of course these leading Islamic groups once again try and use our freedoms against us to get their way as they are saying "We want our constitutional rights."
They even go as far as to say that the FBI is to blame for potential Islamic terrorists here in America. This is just another example of US Muslims trying to dictate how our country is run. We need to wake up and see that they are not here to be our equals, they are here to dominate.

US Muslim Groups Mull FBI Boycott
By Muhammed Qasim, IOL Correspondent

Bazian believes that sending infiltrators and informants into mosques leaves the Muslim community with the assumption that they are "guilty" until proven otherwise.

WASHINGTON — Frustrated by mistrust, suspicion and provocative actions targeting their law-abiding community, the major American Muslim groups are considering to rupture all outreach relations with the FBI and the Justice Department.
"The Muslim organizations are very carefully considering to suspend relations with the government agency in order to create some room for the agency to re-consider the way they are dealing with the Muslim community," Nihad Awad, Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), told IslamOnline.net.

Eleven of the most prominent Muslim groups in the country issued on Tuesday, March 17, a joint statement asking the FBI to reconsider its policies of targeting American Muslims and Muslim groups.

"If the FBI does not accord fair and equitable treatment to every American Muslim organization…then Muslim organizations, mosques and individuals will have no choice but to consider suspending all outreach activities with FBI offices, agents and other personnel," said the statement.

"This possible suspension, of course, would in no way affect our unshakable duty to report crimes or threats of violence to our nation."

The signatories stressed that reaching this decision was not swift or easy, but by all means inevitable.

"We are doing this to bring the unreasonable and unfair treatment of the Muslim community to the attention of the government, give them some time, give them some space, to make changes and amendments," Dr. Agha Sahi, Chairman of the American Muslim Task Force on Civil Rights and Elections (AMT), told IOL.

Hatem Bazian, President of the California-based American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), also linked the decisions to "the way the FBI deals with the Muslim Community in America."

"Now the organizations are collectively considering to suspend relations with the FBI."

Besides CAIR, AMT and AMP, the other organizations are the American Muslim Alliance (AMA), Islamic Educational Center of Orange County (IEC), Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), Muslim Alliance in North America (MANA), Muslim American Society-Freedom Foundation (MAS-FF), Muslim Student Association-National (MSA-N), Muslim Ummah of North America (MUNA) and United Muslims of America (UMA).

Provocative

In their statement, the Muslim groups cited some of the recent provocative incidents by the FBI.

"There are a number of reasons, which compelled us to take this step, the first one is the mistreatment of the Muslim scholars and Ulema," Sahi told IOL.

"Many have been arrested on false charges and either deported or set them aside."

He added that FBI agents and informants who come into mosques to spy on worshippers also increased Muslims anger.

"[They] are provoking young Muslims and compelling them on doing unreasonable and stupid things, take them to the courts and jail them for 20 to 25 years," he said.

"The job of the government is not to provoke people."

The Muslim community in California were infuriated last month after it was revealed that the FBI sent a convicted criminal to pose as an agent provocateur in several of the state's mosques.

Last year, media reports unveiled that FBI agents were monitoring mosques in California's cities of Los Angeles and San Diego.

For Bazian, the California Muslim community leader, sending infiltrators and informants into mosques is leaving the community with one assumption.

"The assumption is that they are guilty," he said.

"They are looking at us with suspicion."

Awad, the CAIR Executive Director, agrees.

"To send a criminal to a mosque to instigate violence is not acceptable," he fumed.

"It's really undermining the relationship between the Muslim community and the government that we have made over the years."

Rights, Respect

"We want our constitutional rights."

Virginia: Bullying Mob Packs Govt Meeting in Support of Islamic Supremacist Institution

Imagine facing the overwhelming odds of fighting for equality in Islamic supremacist Saudi Arabia or in the 1960s-era white supremacist Mississippi.

These were the same odds faced by a handful of activists in challenging the estimated 600 supporters of the Islamic Saudi Academy at Northern Virginia’s Fairfax County Planning Commission on the night of March 18, 2009. Many hundreds of the Islamic Saudi Academy (ISA) supporters wore printed name tag badges reading “I Support ISA,” including ISA’s logo containing the emblem of Saudi Arabian government with its two crossed swords.

This is the same Saudi government that a few weeks ago the U.S. State Department condemned for its “significant human rights problems” in denying basic freedoms and human rights to men, women, and non-Muslims, and the same Saudi government whose courts recently sentenced a 75 year old woman to 40 lashes for “mingling” with men, and whose courts recently sentenced a pregnant gang-rape victim to 100 lashes for “adultery.”

The meeting of the Fairfax County Government Planning Commission was to consider a special exemption to a zoning regulation to allow for the building of an expansion to the Islamic Saudi Academy in Fairfax, Virginia. The Fairfax County government has been leasing space for the existing Saudi Academy facilities for years now. As a suburb of Washington DC, Fairfax, Virginia is slightly more than 20 miles away from our nation’s capital. The Islamic Saudi Academy has been frequently criticized for its reported use of textbooks promoting hate and violence, its former students associated with jihad plots, reports of negligence on reporting female child sex abuse, and ISA’s former valedictorian convicted of joining Al-Qaeda and plotting to assassinate the president.

At the government public meeting, the Fairfax County government board auditorium was packed by Islamic Saudi Academy supporters beyond capacity with dozens standing in the aisles and corridors, as it sought to show its clout to Northern Virginia’s Fairfax government. It was an event that most Fairfax residents were unaware of, but the Saudi Arabian-backed institution’s supporters were well organized to demonstrate their power in Virginia. Andrea Lafferty, one of the few speakers to challenge the Islamic Saudi Academy was nearly ushered out with the overflow crowd of Islamic Saudi Academy supporters, until she fought to have a seat in the audience.

As Islamic Saudi Academy’s attorney Lynn Strobel presented their case to the Fairfax County Planning Commission, she emphasized the public support of her clients seeking the expansion of this Islamic supremacist, Wahhabist-based institution. In a dramatic move to demonstrate their power, Lynn Strobel turned to audience and asked the supporters of the Islamic Saudi Academy to rise. In the auditorium packed with individuals wearing printed badges “I Support ISA,” virtually EVERY person stood up.

While the Islamic Saudi Academy’s attorney and their speakers were treated courteously and with respect, those in opposition to the Islamic Saudi Academy were treated very differently.

The bullying mob of Islamic Saudi Academy supporters was frequently allowed to disrupt the tiny number willing to speak against the Islamic Saudi Academy’s planned expansion in Fairfax County. Several speakers challenging this expansion were loudly booed and laughed at — until the Fairfax commission chairman Peter Murphy (as this was being captured on video) would eventually call for order.

While most of the activists challenging the Islamic Saudi Academy addressed typical zoning issues like traffic and local conservation issues, they also addressed the challenge to human rights in extending land use for an institution with a documented history of textbooks promoting hatred and intolerance, and whose leaders and students have been linked to covering up female child sex abuse and terrorism plots. One commissioner criticized such activists for addressing such human rights and human security issues as “people there who obviously had an agenda.”

The first public speaker was Traditional Values Coalition’s James Lafferty. After addressing typical zoning issues and explaining his familiarity with the existing ISA Academy, James Lafferty addressed his concerns about ISA teachings and the impact on the community. He stated that his concern has been that the repeated reports about ISA teachings indicate that they are anti-American, anti-Christian, and anti-semitic. To underscore their intolerance, the bullying mob of 600 ISA supporters loudly booed, shouted down, and laughed at his comments. (Minutes earlier, ISA attorney Lynn Strobel attested to how ISA “promotes respect and mutual understanding” between Muslims and others.)

James Lafferty was not the only heckled speaker at the government meeting. His wife, Andrea Lafferty, was also booed and laughed at as she spoke about her concerns by the crowd - once again showing the type of “respect and mutual understanding” that the ISA supporters are seeking to expand. Andrea Lafferty expressed her concerns about how the land use would be used to promote supremacist ideologies, emphasizing her concerns about the Saudi Academy’s promotion of Sharia law, the history of textbooks calling for intolerance and hate, the incomplete translation of recent allegedly revised textbooks, and the potential for promoting violent behavior. As the crowd of ISA supporters mockingly laughed at her concerns, Andrea Lafferty expressed her concerns about the conflict between the American commitment to human rights and Islamic supremacism’s suppression of women and others, summarizing her thoughts as “the Statue of Liberty has a torch in her hand, not a rock.” She challenged the Fairfax officials not to be cowardly on this issue and to consider the land use issues associated with such human rights and freedoms. However, Fairfax Planning Commissioner Chairman Peter Murphy was only concerned about challenging methods of flier distribution to alert residents to this meeting.

The meeting that started at 8:15 PM lasted late into the night, continuing well past midnight into the early hours of the morning, with 35 public speakers, many of which were apparently signed up in a coordinated effort by the Islamic Saudi Academy earlier in the week, as speakers supporting the ISA would state that they had been asked by ISA officials to speak at the meeting.

Other activists who spoke at the Fairfax County meeting included:

– Denise Lee, ACT for America - who challenged land use issues for the ISA expansion including traffic patters, water issues, and property values - but then addressed the documented issues of the intolerance and hate reported in the ISA textbooks and the cover-up by a school official over sexual abuse of a 5 year old girl that was an ISA student.

– Christine Brim, Senior Vice President, Center for Security Policy - who addressed the history of how ISA has overpromised and failed to live up to its commitments in the past on the existing facility. Christine pointed out that given this history, the commission should be concerned about new information yet to be disclosed by ISA.

– Faith McDonnell, international human rights activist with The Institute on Religion and Democracy - who pointed out how a Christian school was denied similar zoning exceptions in the same area, and who addressed her experience in dealing with international human rights as to how Islamic supremacist ideologies oppress and threaten those who seek freedom of conscience and religion. Faith also challenged the Fairfax County Planning Commission that enabling the teaching of such supremacism does not come without consequences, and that the Planning Commission would be accountable for what happens as a result.

– Myself - Jeffrey Imm, Responsible for Equality And Liberty (R.E.A.L.) organization - addressing the need for considering the Virginia Human Rights Act in government decisions and land use, and relating my past experiences in seeing business and land use to promote white supremacism in the 1960’s Virginia. I related my experiences in seeing such segregationist, “white clientele only” businesses in Virginia and stated that there is no difference between businesses promoting racial supremacism from “religious” supremacism in terms of supremacism defying our inalienable human rights of equality and liberty. I urged the planning commission to consider how injurious it would be to promote the bullying nature of supremacist ideologies in Virginia businesses - among a people whose responsible for equality and liberty is their first priority.

The numerous ISA supporters who spoke at the Fairfax Planning Commission meeting were not heckled, booed at, or shouted down. One ISA supporter, Abdul Rahman, told the commission that the ISA expansion must be granted because “America needs Islam.” Another ISA supporter called for the ISA expansion to “teach our children in our traditions.” One of the very few women ISA supporters not wearing a hijab or a niqab (among the hundreds that did), Angela Jrab also spoke to the planning commission on busing issues and the perspective of women at ISA. In response to those concerned about the long history of Saudi and Islamic supremacist oppression of women, Angela Jrab spoke as a supporter of the ISA expansion. Angela Jrab told the planning commission that her Muslim husband did not discriminate against women, nor did ISA, as her company was allowed to manage security for the ISA facilities. Unlike the cold, angry, or “off topic” reaction of planning commissioners to those speakers concerned about Islamic supremacist and Wahhabist ideology’s oppression of women, Fairfax Planning Commissioner Earl Flanagan warmly thanked Angela Jrab for her “most helpful presentation” (which well exceeded her time limit), stating that he was certain Planning Chairman Peter Murphy would agree with him. This was the overall pattern in the planning commission’s reactions to those who spoke. For the most part, those who spoke against the ISA expansion were either ignored, confronted, or grilled - even when bringing up what seemed reasonable safety and land issues. Those who spoke in favor of the ISA expansion were routinely appreciated by the planning commission.

During one of the few breaks in the heated meeting due to the overflowing crowd of ISA supporters, several of those who sought to speak out against the ISA were cornered and confronted by some ISA supporters. These ISA supporters denied all of the reports by the Associated Press, the Washington Post, other media, and U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. These ISA supporters told activists that the Washington Post and other reports of ISA textbooks calling for jihad and calling Jews apes and Christians pigs - were all lies. These ISA supporters said that the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom’s report criticizing ISA textbooks stating that it is permissible for Muslims to kill coverts from Islam and adulterers - was a lie. They said reports of former ISA valedictorian Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, convicted in federal court of joining Al-Qaeda and plotting to assassinate President Bush - were a lie. They said that FBI reports that former ISA student Mohammed El-Yacoubi was carrying a suicide note with what it believed was planned to be a suicide bombing attack in Israel - were a lie. According to these ISA supporters, all of the reports about the problems with ISA are nothing but lies. In this exchange, one woman ISA supporter shouted out “it is all lies” and then after discovering that one of the cornered rights activists was a Christian, stated that “the Jews killed your Jesus.” Later the same woman ISA supporter reiterated that ISA does not support hate.

In Virginia, while a bullying mob declared “I Support ISA,” you should know that there were fearless activists who clearly sent the message that “We Support USA,” and the inalienable human rights of equality and liberty inherent in America’s identity.

But citizens concerned about the spread of Islamic supremacists’ threat to equality and liberty must not ignore how vastly outnumbered such activists were and continue to be in representing us in public events and before government agencies. The six activists speaking out against the Islamic supremacist nature of the Islamic Saudi Academy were outnumbered by the estimated 600 ISA supporters by nearly 100 to one. This is not the first or the last such public event where the larger consensus on equality and liberty needs greater representation.

Clearly when supporters of Islamic supremacist institutions publicly demonstrate that they can outnumber their opposition by such vast numbers, such supporters will become further emboldened and confident in their ability to influence government agencies, laws, and legislature. In the Washington DC metropolitan area, and around the nation, it is not enough to commiserate privately over our concerns about Islamic supremacism, or to think that “preaching to the choir” on shared Internet blogs and via email is really accomplishing anything.

Those who believe that we can win victories for freedom by merely marching in place and reassuring ourselves — need to wake up. If we are not willing to get out in public to defend equality and liberty as citizen activists, we can be certain that there will be plenty of others supporting institutions and ideologies that do not respect equality and liberty who will act in public. Those who support ideologies against equality and liberty will continue to persuade the media, the government, and your neighbors — that they represent the majority of public opinion. We cannot expect courage from our government, if we don’t see courage from the public they represent.

Will you let them win? Or will you do something about it?

Defending equality and liberty is inconvenient. It takes time and commitment. It costs you money. It interferes with your life. But equality and liberty cannot be taken for granted, with the forces of supremacism that are on the march, not just in Northern Virginia, but around the nation and the world. When you consider how inconvenient it is to challenge supremacism, think about what your life would be like without equality and liberty. Think about what type of future and legacy we would leave for the children and future generations. Good intentions are never enough. Being responsible for equality and liberty means that your action is needed now.

To help in the activist focus on issues challenging equality and liberty, our organization “Responsible for Equality And Liberty (R.E.A.L.)” at realcourage.org has listed future events where we are publicly challenging supremacism. Take the time to look for such events, and see where you can get involved with R.E.A.L. or other activist organizations, such as ACT for America.

The next time you are concerned about the growth of Islamic supremacism in foreign lands, never forget that those who seek to challenge equality and liberty are right here today in America too.

Remember those like the “Fairfax 600″ that publicly supported an Islamic supremacist institution in Virginia. They are convinced that you aren’t willing to publicly challenge them. They are convinced that those supporting equality and liberty either don’t care or are too afraid.

But those of us responsible for equality and liberty will Fear No Evil.

Staff of Obama Nominee Arrested

2009-03-12T10:08:00.001-07:00

Amateur hour continues at the White House. Cabinet full of tax cheats, can't get political appointees through because of tax problems, can't staff the Treasury Dept., and now...criminal charges.

WASHINGTON - Two officials in the D.C.'s Office of the Chief Technology Officer have been arrested in a federal bribery sting, sources tell WTOP.

D.C. Office of the Chief Technology Officer employees Sushil Bansal and 40-year-old Yusuf Acar have been arrested, sources tell WTOP.

Acar was taken into custody Thursday morning by FBI agents at his home in Northwest D.C.

The FBI is now serving a search warrant at the office of D.C.'s Chief Technology Officer, WTOP has learned.

"We are there as part of a continuing ongoing criminal investigation," FBI Washington Field Office spokesperson Katherine Schweit tells WTOP.

Schweit would not comment on the details of the investigation.

More than a dozen FBI agents - including evidence technicians - at the office, located at 1 Judiciary Square on 4th Street in Northwest, WTOP's Mark Segraves reports.

Most of the employees have been told to go home. Other employees have been segregated into a waiting room.

Segraves reports the FBI's search has expanded from 9th floor offices to 10th floor offices.

A spokesman for D.C.'s U.S. Attorney tells WTOP he cannot discuss the investigation, as it is currently sealed.

On March 5, President Barack Obama named D.C. Chief Technology Officer Vivek Kundra as the federal government's chief information officer.

Kundra's last day was March 4.

Kundra, who was in charge of technology in the District since 2007, has been a consultant to Obama since he won the election.

Empresses Pelosi Demands Peasent Army Transport Her

2009-03-12T09:44:00.000-07:00

Pelosi Demands Filthy Ignorant Peasant Soldiers chauffeur her around:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has repeatedly requested military aircraft to shuttle her and her colleagues and family around the country, according to a new report from a conservative watchdog group.

Representatives for Judicial Watch, which obtained e-mails and other documents from a Freedom of Information request, said the correspondence shows Pelosi has abused the system in place to accommodate congressional leaders and treated the Air Force as her "personal airline."

Pelosi's office disputed the claim, pointing to White House policy enacted after the Sept. 11 attacks allowing for the House speaker to travel to his or her congressional district via military aircraft whenever possible for security reasons. Her office said she typically uses the same kind of aircraft used by her predecessor, Dennis Hastert.

But Judicial Watch said that Pelosi was notorious for making special demands for high-end aircraft, lodging last-minute cancellations and racking up additional expenses for the military.

The e-mails showed repeated attempts by Pelosi aides to request aircraft, sometimes aggressively, and by Department of Defense officials to accommodate them.

"I think that's above and beyond what other members of Congress are doing and what is expected of our elected officials," said Jenny Small, a researcher with the group.

In one e-mail, aide Kay King complained to the military that they had not made available any aircraft the House speaker wanted for Memorial Day recess.

"It is my understanding there are NO G5s available for the House during the Memorial Day recess. This is totally unacceptable ... The Speaker will want to know where the planes are," King wrote.

In another, when told a certain type of aircraft would not be available, King wrote: "This is not good news, and we will have some very disappointed folks, as well as a very upset Speaker."

Pelosi spokesman Nadeam Elshami said the report seemed to be based on only "a few e-mails," and defended the requests for military aircraft for her colleagues as a "function of the speaker's office." Elshami said at least one of the requests in the above e-mails referenced requests made for other members.

Pelosi's office noted that the Department of Defense ultimately makes all decisions on use of military aircraft for travel, and that Pelosi is "extraordinarily appreciative" of the department's effort to accommodate Congress.

SITREP USSA-Patriots Respond

2009-03-12T08:59:00.000-07:00

So how is the New World Order going? How about a single world currency while we're at it?

Only Congress, Obama, and EU politicians aren't tired of it, but the rest of us are:

"Anger rises in Germany as the economy falls. Trade unions and globalization-critical protesters are planning demonstrations in Berlin and Frankfurt under the banner: "We're not paying for your crisis." Alexis Passadakis, 31, an activist from the group Attac, tells SPIEGEL what's wrong with the system."

But hey, these are just "fits and starts"...time to party:
Since the presidency changed hands less than six weeks ago, a burst of entertaining has taken hold of the iconic, white-columned home of America's head of state. Much of it comes on Wednesdays.

Except for those parties that are traditions, much like throwing out Churchill's bust, pissing on the Brits, messing up the Oath, and throwing out Hail to the Chief.

Party time, socialism is coming in, and the rich can pay for it right...wrong:

The bottom line is that Mr. Obama is selling the country on a 2% illusion. Unwinding the U.S. commitment in Iraq and allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire can't possibly pay for his agenda. Taxes on the not-so-rich will need to rise as well.

And if we can't them here, we'll get them over there, look the evil corporate boogeyman:
President Barack Obama's Treasury secretary says the administration will unveil a series of rules and measures in the coming months to limit the ability of international companies to avoid U.S. taxes.

Afterall, someone has to pay for universal healthcare, and we are in the marijuana (gateway drug) phase of it: Driving private sector out and introducing an economically unsustainable replacement:
U.S. President Barack Obama has been vague about details of his healthcare reform efforts, but he provided a hint on Monday of one direction he could take -- community health centers.

This of course, is crazy enough, but predictable enough that even a lunatic could see it coming, and see how government agencies will be used to reinforce it by tracking you (Enhanced ID worse than Real ID), indoctrinating your kids, and taking your guns. (Because Mexico's violence is our fault, we should disarm) Afterall, Mexican drug cartels can make Forbes list, but can only get guns from careless Americans blindly selling to cartel muscle.)

Bottomline, while the left is organizing to move even faster, Patriots are coming out the woodwork, disorganized as it may be. Introducting Pat Dollard's ACTIVE, Glenn Beck "We Surround Them" rally Mar. 13, and Chuck Norris's efforts, and belated happy birthday to Chuck. Why you may ask, or have the need to explain to the sheep, well this Marine says it exactly:
