Everyone who knows me by now, knows I do not hate muslims. None of us here truly hate muslims. What we despise are the Islamic clerics.
Now there are vile, ignorant and crazy spokespeople for all ranks of life. Government, religion, Hollywood and of course…
the news media (Keith Olbermann comes to mind. Now there's a real idiot!)
But for now, lets concentrate on what we do best. ISLAM!! Now THEY have the front runners when it comes to crazies…the Clerics. Oh yes, the Clerics. Here is a bunch of total idiotic, lust crazed, saliva drooling, maniacal whack jobs.
Why don’t we look at a few of the recent media releases pertaining to the wacky world of Islamic clerics…..
Cleric Admits Role in Bombing Cricket Stadium...
BANGALORE: 8/25/10 - PDP leader and 2008 Bangalore blasts accused Abdul Nasser Madani has admitted role in the Bangalore stadium blasts which necessitated the shifting of two IPL matches to Mumbai, official sources said on Tuesday.
Interrogation of Madani, an accused in the 2008 serial bomb blasts here, has revealed his role in the twin explosions near the cricket stadium here ahead of an IPL match on April 17 this year, Home Minister V S Acharya said on Tuesday.
An Islamic “holy man” has a role in murder…
Clerics Call Pakistani Floods 'Allah's Wrath' for Secularism...
The monsoon rains that hit Swat a month ago, before sending a devastating tide south, have washed away homes, livelihoods, much of its high-grade rice crop and - in some quarters - hopes of extinguishing residual support for Islamic extremism among a population who lived under the yoke of the Taliban for more than two years.
But the message from the country's most conservative imams - that the floods were God's punishment for the secularisation of the state - is taking hold in this long-suffering region.
Maybe Allah is punishing those violent Pakistanis…
NEXT….
Egyptian Cleric: Allah will Destroy West, Muslims to Conquer World
Egyptian cleric Salem Abu Al-Futuh: The nation of Islam will return – despite our current crisis and despite the arrogance of the West. The West is bound to be destroyed. Just like Allah destroyed the Byzantine and Persian empires, He will destroy the West at the hands of the Muslims. This is an unequivocal promise. These countries will convert to Islam. Islam will reach these countries.
By Allah, we will conquer Italy. By Allah, we will conquer Italy and move into [the rest] of Europe. Islam will enter that entire region. Even America, you ask? Yes, even America. North or south America? Both North and South America. We will enter all these countries, and people there will be joining Islam in droves.
...and the muslims go running out into the streets screaming....DEATH TO AMERICA!!!
AUSTRALIAN MUSLIM HATE PREACHER CALLS FOR DUTCH MP GEERT WILDERS TO BE BEHEADED........
Friday, September 03, 2010 - Dutch Muslim radicals are calling for Wilders to be beheaded. The call comes from the Australian hate preacher Feiz Muhammad (40), by intelligence agencies worldwide as one of the main jihadist ideologues, a great inspiration for Western, young Muslim radicals.
Feiz Muhammad within intelligence circles is in the same breath as notorious spiritual jihad leaders and the US-Yemeni Muslim preacher Anwar al-Awlaki, a major recruiter for Al Qaeda, which is seen as the inspiration behind the failed attack with an aircraft over Detroit. According to Ronald Sandee, former employee of the MIVD and director of a U.S. anti-terrorist "assassination of the call for Wilders to be taken very seriously".
And here we have a holy man calling for murder.
So there you have a small example of how the clerics turn out to be a major problem for the moderate muslim.
So what do all of these whack jobs have in common? Islam. What does that tell us? Islam has very big problems. Muslims are looked upon as violent and capable of killing us with absolutely no remorse. With a thirst for the blood of the non-believer, muslims march out with their knives, guns and machetes…following the orders of their beloved clerics. Africa is saturated with infidel blood thanks to muslim clerics calling for the death of Christians
These are just a few recent examples of whats driving the average muslim . Leave the muslim alone and he’ll live along side of you peacefully. He would have no problem assimilating into our country.
Bottom line is…we know what the problem is. We know whats stirring the pot. Question is…what do we do about it?

The Chamberlain Effect
You can keep staring at that Black Widow spider sitting up in the corner of your ceiling. You can say it is sleeping. You can say it is benign. You can say anything you want to keep your mind at ease, but you know as well as that spider, that when you are sleeping it is coming down to bite you.
Islam, is like that spider. Silent, slow, unassuming....but very, very deadly, and while we sleep, it is coming down to bite us. Muslim extremists show us everyday, that they indeed are out to dominate the world. Murders, bombings, tortures, genocide, happening everyday all over the world. It seems wherever Islam goes, there is going to be violence.
Americans, basically are forgiving people. We look for the good in everyone and everything. We want to think that everyone should love each other and we can all just get along.
Islam showed America just how it feels towards her people. On October 12, 2000, the USS Cole was victim of a suicide attack while it was harbored and refueling in the Yemeni port of Aden. Seventeen American sailors were killed, and thirty-nine were injured.
Liberals asked..."Oh what did we do wrong to bring this upon us?"
The Islamic Sudanese are starving the Christians in Darfur, and the United Nations sleeps.
Hamas, Hezbollah, Jamaat ul-Fuqra, all listed as terror groups, have bases within the borders of the United States. Not one word is spoken by any law enforcement agency.
Of course everyone remembers 9/11. When 19 radical muslim extremists hi-jacked four planes. Two were flown into the World Trade Center in NYC. One crashed into the Pentagon. The fourth came down in a field in Pennsylvania. And of course we all believe that muslim terrorists were behind that heinous act of war...right?
Wrong!
More than a third of the American public suspects that federal officials assisted in the 9/11 terrorist attacks or took no action to stop them so the United States could go to war in the Middle East, according to a new Scripps Howard/Ohio University poll.
Some polls say as many as 80% of Americans believe the US government had something to do with 9/11.
Really? Unbelievable. If I remember...Osama bin Laden admitted to orchestrating the entire event. Did anyone else see that? No? It was a video.
Today in America, we have Islam making inroads within our public schools. Liberal colleges feel that Islam is getting a bad rap and pretty much lets the muslim student associations run anything they want. Although they freely publicize the anti-Semitic attitude that muslims in general vocalize, and many are merely an outlet for Islamic radicalization. But...we choose to ignore this and basically look the other way.
Try this exercise....make a sign that says: Islam must be banned. Now go stand in your cities downtown center. I give you about 5 or 6 minutes before people come up to you and call you a racist, Islamaphobe, hater, war monger, among other names. Meanwhile, the muslims will either be sitting in the background smiling while the everyday citizen does the work, or they go crying to CAIR that you were not following political correctness.
America is sound asleep.
Thomas Sowell said it best:
"When the majority of the people become like sheep and will tolerate intolerance rather than make a fuss, then there is no limit to how far any group will go."
When we ignore what is happening around us, when we refuse to admit that terror is on our doorstep, when we close our eyes to the fact that a violent ideology is marching into our cities to subvert our culture, dominate our society and remove the most populous religion with their own.....I call it The Chamberlain Effect.
Arthur Neville Chamberlain (18 March 1869 – 9 November 1940) was a British politician who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from May 1937 to May 1940. Chamberlain is best known for his appeasement foreign policy, and in particular for his signing of the Munich Agreement in 1938, conceding the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia to Nazi Germany. When Adolf Hitler continued his aggression, Britain declared war on Germany on 3 September 1939, and Chamberlain led Britain through the first eight months of World War II.
The same can be said for the American leadership. The current government does not dare correlate Islam with any act of muslim violence in this country. Not the Fort Hood shooter, not the Christmas underwear bomber. The war on terror is no longer related to radical Islam. It doesn't matter that Islamic extremists ARE out to kill us. The latest rule from the White House....Do not mention terrorist and Islam in the same conversation. I find this appalling.
The same can be said for basically all Americans. Lets go back to the little protest sign that I had you make. If you were to do that protest, you will be hounded out of town. Why? Because people will not want to believe what you have written. They want to believe that Islam is the victim, and we all know how muslims love to play the victim. Oh yes.....they are the victims. The poor, poor muslims. The same muslims that will kill their own daughters if they become too westernized. The same poor, poor muslims that behead their wives if they ask for a divorce. The same muslim students that will chant and attack the stage of any speaker that dares to speak out against the violence Islam brings. The very same muslims that kill over cartoons, that demand the death of teachers over teddy bears. The very same muslims that scream Death To The Jews, riot in the streets, create Muslim Only zones in cities, and threaten the lives of billions of people on this planet.....while we sleep.
Unfortunately, you will pay for it in the future.
That spider is coming down, and if we don't wake up.........

Muslim scholars: Airport scanners against our religion
February 12, 2010
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Saying that body scanners that can see through clothes violate Islamic law, Muslim-American groups are supporting a "fatwa" -- a religious ruling -- that forbids Muslims from going through the scanners at airports.
The Fiqh Council of North America, a body of Islamic scholars, issued a fatwa that says going through the airport scanners would violate Islamic rules on modesty.
"It is a violation of clear Islamic teachings that men or women be seen naked by other men and women," reads the fatwa. "Islam highly emphasizes haya [modesty] and considers it part of faith. The Quran has commanded the believers, both men and women, to cover their private parts."
The Muslim groups are urging members to undergo patdowns instead.
BULLSHIT!! Just another way to get around the system....soon you'll see signs in airports:
MUSLIMS GO THIS WAY ----->
EVERYBODY ELSE Go HERE ------>
This country is rapidly become a country of religious seperation.

French Call for Veil Ban in Public Buildings
Monday, January 25, 2010
PARIS — A French parliamentary panel will stop short of recommending a ban on face-covering veils in the street and instead will ask for the garb to be banned in public facilities such as hospitals, the panel's president says.
The 32-member panel's report due Tuesday culminates a six-month inquiry into the wearing of all-encompassing veils that began after President Nicolas Sarkozy said in June that they are "not welcome" on French territory.
Andre Gerin, a Communist lawmaker who heads the multiparty panel, said the report contains a "multitude of proposals" to ban such garb in places like schools, hospitals and other public buildings, but not private buildings or on the street.
Gerin stressed the need to move "progressively" toward a law banning the attire in the streets and to work "hand in hand" with Muslim leaders and associations.
A 2004 French law bans Muslim headscarves from classrooms.
Muslim religious leaders have warned that a law banning face-covering attire in the streets could stigmatize Muslims and drive some to extremism. They were joined last week by Roman Catholic and Jewish leaders who said they consider such a drastic step unnecessary.
France has Western Europe's largest Muslim population, estimated at some 5 million. Only a tiny minority of Muslim women wear such attire, usually a "niqab" pinned across the face to cover all but the eyes.
Critics of the veils call them a gateway to extremism, an insult to gender equality and an offense to France's secular system.
"It is perhaps a marginal problem, but it is the visible part of the iceberg," Gerin said in a recent interview. "Behind the iceberg is a black tide of ... fundamentalism." He denounced those he called "gurus" or "French Taliban" who, he claimed, promote a radical brand of Islam that forces women and girls to hide themselves.
Critics of a formal ban have raised concerns about the constitutionality of state mandates on dress.
"I don't think an ideology should be fought through constraining measures but through ideas," Mohammed Moussaoui, the head of a coalition of Muslim organizations, said in an interview. "It's very difficult to talk about the liberation of women through a law that constrains." (WHAT??? HUH???- BBJ)

What Oath? Muslims Unfit for Citizenship and Military Duty
By Scott W. Winchell
Editor-in-Chief; Interim CEO; Stand Up America Project
In 1960, one of the biggest questions in the race for the Presidency between John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon was Kennedy’s religion. Being a Catholic, Kennedy was asked if his allegiance was to the country or the Pope. In those days, the same as today, in Catholicism, each adherent was first a Catholic, and second, a citizen of their country.
On Sept. 12, 1960, presidential candidate John F. Kennedy gave a major speech to the Greater Houston Ministerial Association, a group of Protestant ministers, on the issue of his religion. At the time, many Protestants questioned whether Kennedy’s Roman Catholic faith would allow him to make important national decisions as president independent of the church. Kennedy addressed those concerns before a skeptical audience of Protestant clergy.
The following is from a transcript of Kennedy’s speech:
But because I am a Catholic, and no Catholic has ever been elected president, the real issues in this campaign have been obscured – perhaps deliberately, in some quarters less responsible than this. So it is apparently necessary for me to state once again not what kind of church I believe in – for that should be important only to me – but what kind of America I believe in.
I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute, where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote; where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference; and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the president who might appoint him or the people who might elect him.
Apparently, this was enough to resolve the question, and he won the election. Today, we have a new question of allegiance. Not a question regarding Catholicism, but rather, Islam. The reason we ask this question is based on the fact, that a Muslim, is a Muslim first no matter where that person lives. Islam recognizes Dar el Islam, the “house of Islam” as any place a Muslim is present. Islam may not control that place, but the man that proclaims his devotion and submission to Allah is by Sha’ariah Law, a Muslim first and foremost.
Islam means submission, literally; there is no doubt that a devout Muslim must proclaim this or he is an apostate. This is something worse than an infidel, or non-believer, for he has forsaken his duty to Allah. Therefore, he must always be a Muslim first, and that means he is not only unable, but also forbidden from acting in any other fashion. If he is in our military, he may take orders, and obey, but at some level, when the order runs afoul of Islam, he must revert to Islam first. This is very obvious in the case of the terrorist, Major Nidal Hasan at Fort Hood.
Unlike Catholicism, Islam enforces this by the sword. In many lands around the world, there are frequent examples of this enforcement, especially among the woman in Islam. Honor killings are frequent and occur everywhere, even here in the USA, Canada, Great Britain, and many other places in the western world. Kennedy, back in 1960 was not even ex-communicated let alone receiving a Fatwa from an Imam, declaring he must die, and that all Muslims are duty bound to carry this edict out. This is a religious edict known only to Islam. Somehow, Major Nidal found that he could no longer be a member of the Military and decided to act on his devoutness to Islam, and to proceed to kill his own military comrades to whom he swore an oath.
Therefore, as we see in Hasan’s example, Islam is first in the mind of the devout, and it is clear that he never intended on living up to his oath as a soldier. He took the license of takiya, the Islamic right to lie for the sake of Islam to infidels. His oath never mattered and therefore, regarless of any oath a Muslim takes, it is to be totally discounted. Not only did he commit acts of terrorism, he also broke numerous laws, both military and civil. The worst of which was violating 18 U.S.C. § 2385 : US Code – Section 2385: Advocating overthrow of Government:
Whoever knowingly or willfully advocates, abets, advises, or teaches the duty, necessity, desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or destroying the government of the United States or the government of any State, Territory, District or Possession thereof, or the government of any political subdivision therein, by force or violence, or by the assassination of any officer of any such government…shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both, and shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof, for the five years next following his conviction.
These are acts of Sedition and Treason. But to a Muslim, they are acts of devotion to Allah. So which prevails? As a free society where we are a land of laws, not men, the former applies. So we now have a very real question of loyalty.
To a lesser degree, when a Muslim from another land is naturalized in the United States, and they swear an oath to gain citizenship, to whom are they beholding? When a recruit signs up for the military, takes the oath, yet declares he is a Muslim on the form, what should we expect?
Here is the oath on citizenship:
I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God.
Or was that Allah?
Here are the oaths for the military:
I, (state your name), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God. (Title 10, US Code; Act of 5 May 1960 replacing the wording first adopted in 1789, with amendment effective 5 October 1962).
I, (State your name) (SSAN), having been appointed an officer in the Army of the United States, as indicated above in the grade of (BLANK) do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservations or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office upon which I am about to enter; So help me God. (DA Form 71, 1 August 1959, for officers.)
Citizenship form n-400 also asks whether or not the applicant has:
…advocated the overthrow of any government by force or violence (either directly or indirectly)?
I think a great many Muslims would fail this test immediately if it could be proven, but takiya absolves them anyway under Islam if they lie about it. How do we prove or disprove these issues?
The answer is clear, we cannot. If we tried, the ACLU would file cases by the boatload. Therefore the only sane thing to do to protect us from the Hasan’s of the world and Islamic deceit is to ban any person with Muslim affiliation of any sort from both citizenship and military service. Islam has no place in modern society. It is a barbaric political ideology, not a religion, and therefore, it is akin to citizenship from another country. Islam knows no boundaries, but acts as if it were a separate state. Therefore, we should treat them as if they were. They are devout, abiding peoples of another country/state make no mistake about it.

These are acts of Sedition and Treason. But to a Muslim, they are acts of devotion to Allah. So which prevails? As a free society where we are a land of laws, not men, the former applies. So we now have a very real question of loyalty.
To a lesser degree, when a Muslim from another land is naturalized in the United States, and they swear an oath to gain citizenship, to whom are they beholding? When a recruit signs up for the military, takes the oath, yet declares he is a Muslim on the form, what should we expect?
Here is the oath on citizenship:
I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God.
Or was that Allah?
Here are the oaths for the military:
I, (state your name), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God. (Title 10, US Code; Act of 5 May 1960 replacing the wording first adopted in 1789, with amendment effective 5 October 1962).
I, (State your name) (SSAN), having been appointed an officer in the Army of the United States, as indicated above in the grade of (BLANK) do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservations or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office upon which I am about to enter; So help me God. (DA Form 71, 1 August 1959, for officers.)
Citizenship form n-400 also asks whether or not the applicant has:
…advocated the overthrow of any government by force or violence (either directly or indirectly)?
I think a great many Muslims would fail this test immediately if it could be proven, but takiya absolves them anyway under Islam if they lie about it. How do we prove or disprove these issues?
The answer is clear, we cannot. If we tried, the ACLU would file cases by the boatload. Therefore the only sane thing to do to protect us from the Hasan’s of the world and Islamic deceit is to ban any person with Muslim affiliation of any sort from both citizenship and military service. Islam has no place in modern society. It is a barbaric political ideology, not a religion, and therefore, it is akin to citizenship from another country. Islam knows no boundaries, but acts as if it were a separate state. Therefore, we should treat them as if they were. They are devout, abiding peoples of another country/state make no mistake about it.

Somali charged in attack on Danish cartoonist
By JAN M. OLSEN, Associated Press Writer Jan M. Olsen, Associated Press Writer – 11 mins ago
COPENHAGEN – A Somali man was charged Saturday with two counts of attempted murder for an attack on a Danish artist whose 2005 cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad ignited riots and outrage across the Muslim world, authorities said.
The artist — 74-year-old Kurt Westergaard — was moved to an undisclosed location for his own protection.
The 28-year-old Somali man with ties to al-Qaida broke into Westergaard's home in Aarhus on Friday night armed with an ax and a knife, said Jakob Scharf, head of Denmark's PET intelligence agency.
Westergaard, who has been the target of several death threats since depicting the Prophet Muhammad with a bomb-shaped turban, pressed an alarm and fled with his 5-year-old granddaughter to a specially made safe room. He had been under round-the-clock protection by Danish security agents.
Officers arrived two minutes later and tried to arrest the assailant, but then shot him in the hand and knee when he threatened them with the ax, said Preben Nielsen of the Aarhus police.
Nielsen said the man's wounds were serious but not life-threatening, and Westergaard was "quite shocked" by the attack but was not injured.
The Somali man denied the charges at a court hearing Saturday in Aarhus, Denmark's second largest city, 125 miles (200 kilometers) northwest of Copenhagen. Accompanied by a lawyer, he was wheeled into the court on a stretcher from the hospital where he was being treated.
Chief Superintendent Ole Madsen in Aarhus said the man was charged with two counts of attempted murder: one on Westergaard and one on a police officer. The court also banned publication of the man's name.
"He will be in custody for four weeks, and in isolation for two," Madsen said, adding that the Somali would be moved to the Vestre Faengsel prison in Aarhus, which has medical facilities.
His defense lawyer, Niels Christian Strauss, told reporters outside the court he had urged his client to remain silent during the hearing to give him more time to examine the evidence.
Westergaard remains a potential target for extremists nearly five years after he drew a caricature of the Prophet Muhammad along with 11 other Danish cartoonists that were printed in the Jyllands-Posten newspaper. Since Westergaard's cartoon is viewed the most provocative, he is the only of the twelve to live under round-the-clock protection.
The Jyllands-Posten had asked Danish cartoonists to draw Muhammad as a challenge to a perceived self-censorship, not to insult Muslims. Still, Danish and other Western embassies in several Muslim countries were torched a few months later in 2006 by angry protesters who felt the cartoons had profoundly insulted Islam.
Islamic law generally opposes any depiction of the prophet, even favorable, for fear it could lead to idolatry.
The Somali man had won an asylum case and received a residency permit to stay in Denmark, Scharf said, declaring the Friday attack "terror related."
"The arrested man has, according to PET's information, close relations to the Somali terrorist group al-Shabab and al-Qaida leaders in eastern Africa," Scharf said. "(The attack) again confirms the terror threat that is directed at Denmark and against the cartoonist Kurt Westergaard in particular."
Scharf said the man is suspected of having been involved in terror-related activities in east Africa and had been under PET's surveillance but not in connection with Westergaard.
Westergaard could not be reached for comment. However, he told his employer, the Jyllands-Posten, that the assailant shouted "Revenge!" and "Blood!" as he tried to enter the bathroom where Westergaard and the child had sought shelter.
"My grandchild did fine," Westergaard said, according to the newspaper's Web site. "It was scary. It was close. Really close. But we did it."
Westergaard has received previous death threats and was the subject of an alleged assassination plot.
In October, terror charges were brought against two Chicago men who planned to kill Westergaard and newspaper's former cultural editor. That trial has not yet begun.
In 2008, Danish police arrested two Tunisian men suspected of plotting to kill Westergaard. Neither suspect was prosecuted. One was deported and the other was released Monday after an immigration board rejected PET's efforts to expel him from Denmark.
Throughout the crisis, then-Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen distanced himself from the cartoons but resisted calls to apologize for them, citing freedom of speech and saying his government could not be held responsible for the actions of Denmark's press.
An umbrella organization for moderate Muslims in Denmark condemned the Friday attack.
"The Danish Muslim Union strongly distances itself from the attack and any kind of extremism that leads to such acts," the group said in a statement.
