Karikatyrer som publicerats i anknytning till Islam.

Muslimer blir upprörda så till den grad att protester och våld tillkommer vilket bevisar att Islam är intolerant.

Wrong approach

Anti-defamation policy infringes on free speech

Battle Creek Enguirer OCTOBER 29, 2009

No one likes to be mocked or insulted. Nonetheless, freedom of speech requires a certain tolerance of offensive remarks. As long as words are not obscene and do not incite imminent public danger, they are allowed under the U.S. Constitution.

Such protections are essential to ensure that Americans can freely express their opinions and beliefs, no matter how unpopular they might be.

So we have to disagree with a resolution being promoted by the Organization of the Islamic Conference. The 56-nation bloc of Islamic countries wants the United Nations Human Rights Council to implement anti-defamation policies regarding religion. Like most folks, we don't like rude remarks about any religion, but trying to banish them would restrict freedom of expression and, ultimately, freedom of religion.

It is important to distinguish between discrimination and defamation. Discrimination involves actions that violate the rights of others, and should be condemned. But defamation is merely the expression of opinions, and does not have a physical impact on the ability of others to function.

The push for an anti-defamation resolution is due, at least in part, to what are viewed by many Muslims as anti-Islamic incidents in recent years, such as the publication in Europe of several cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed.

While we understand that Muslims were insulted, such gestures should not be outlawed. In this country, many people are offended by the burning of the U.S. flag or the use of religious symbols in controversial art projects, yet the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that such expressions must be allowed under the First Amendment.

In trying to determine what constitutes "defamation" of religion, it seems inevitable that someone's opinions will be constrained or silenced. We live in a world where religious beliefs proliferate, and we must allow all to be heard, no matter how repugnant they might be to our own views.

De jagas för våldtäkten i Kortedala- 3 mörkhyade män. Äntligen en reporter som säger lite mer än “3 män”

De jagas för våldtäkten i Kortedala

Även garvade poliser är tagna av brutaliteten vid våldtäkten i Kortedala.
Ett av polisens spår: en av de misstänkta våldtäktsmännen har ett speciellt kännetecken.
Spaningarna fortsätter och nya förhör hölls i går med den medtagna kvinnan.

Signalement på det tre männen

Man i 20-25 årsåldern, mörkhyad, bar en röd kort jacka och hade handskar på sig.
Man i 20-25 årsåldern, mörkhyad, bar en svart jacka. Bär ett speciellt
kännetecken.
Man i 20-25-årsåldern, mörkhyad, svart jacka och svart mössa. Längre än de andra. Skägg.

- Det handlar om ett mycket grovt misstänkt övergrepp, säger chefen P-O Johansson vid nyinrättade roteln för grova brott i Göteborg.
Hur många gärningsmän misstänks?
- I varje fall fler än en.
Finns det vittnesuppgifter utöver våldtäktsoffrets?
- Jag vill inte gå in på det.
Hur mår offret?
- Inte särskilt bra men vi kommer i eftermiddag (läs tisdag) att träffa henne för nya samtal.

Söker tre unga män

Enligt vad GT erfar spanar polisen i första hand efter tre män, alla i åldrarna 20-25 år.
Det var strax efter klockan 21 i söndags kväll som kvinnan på väg hem från jobbet kom promenerade i skogsområdet vid Almanacksvägen strax intill Kortedalavallen.
Hon ska då ha överfallits av tre gärningsmän som attackerade henne bakifrån och först slog ned henne.

Hölls fast

Hon svimmade av men när hon vaknade ska åtminstone en av de misstänkta ha genomfört en fullbordad våldtäkt.
Detta skedde medan de övriga höll fast henne.
Gärningsmännen ska även ha använt tillhyggen mot kvinnans underliv.
En av dem ska dessutom ha hotat henne med en kniv och sagt att hon skulle dö om hon berättade något.
Ändå var det kvinnan själv som slog larm till polisen.

Hörde en bil

Enligt våldtäktsoffret försvann männen efteråt in i skogen vid brottsplatsen och hon ska även ha hört en bil startas.
Polisen skickade flera patruller till området, men först när en hundförare började söka vid Almanacksvägen hittades kvinnan i skogen - några hundra meter från torget, där hon först sa att hon överfallits.

Barnstjärna mötte mångkulturen; rån, misshandel och utpressning

Info14.com STOCKHOLM | Publicerad: 2009-07-29 kl 19:54

- Du har jiddrat med min lillebror. Det kostar 500 spänn. Betala innan tisdag annars så dödar vi dig.Främlingarna stirrar ner den 13-årige pojken hånleendes. Pojken är oförstående till anklagelserna. Han vet inte ens vem lillebrodern är.

-Det är inte smart att vara kaxig. Du ska betala eller så dödar vi, väser den lille negern föraktfullt till den vid det här laget vettskrämde pojken. Pojken har, trots sin ringa ålder, gjort sig känd genom en serie populära reklamfilmer för ett av Sveriges största företag. Ett tänkbart motiv är förstås att främlingarna trott sig hittat en guldgruva i den 13-årige barnstjärnan. En egen guldkalv att mjölka på pengar.
Mötet med de två kulturberikarna innebär startskottet för en flera veckors lång terror mot pojken, hans vänner och hans familj. En situation inte alls olik den omskrivna Rödebypappans, som media vältrade sig frikostigt i. I den 13-årige spångapojkens fall vältrade sig ingen media. Trots de uppenbart sensationella ingredienserna, en ung populär barnstjärna flyr Stockholm efter utpressning och våld. Pojkens historia har hållits från löpsedlarna, medvetet och beräknat. Där Rödebyfallet får exemplifiera något exceptionellt, en top-story, är fallet med den 13-årige pojken och hans familj vardagsmat. Det händer överallt. Varje dag.
Svenskfientlig gängmentalitet
De två främlingarna som stannar pojken, som vi kan kalla Jimmy, på väg till skolan heter Said Taher och Tony Laventzakis. Det är Tonys lillebror som Jimmy ska ha bråkat med, ett svepskäl förstås. Främlingarna är två år äldre än pojken, båda är ökända bråkstakar. Deras offer är uteslutande svenskar.
Jimmy chockades och skrämdes påtagligt av händelsen. Rädslan satt så djupt att han inte ens vågade prata med sina föräldrar. Han gick inte tillbaka till skolan mer den veckan. Mot helgen packade han vad han behövde och rymde hemifrån, i ett desperat försök att slippa främlingarna.
Livet på luffen varade inte för länge dock. Några dagar senare kom pojken hem igen. Situationen hade dock inte lugnat ned sig nämnvärt på Vinstagårdskolan i Hässelby, en av Stockholms västra förorter. Eritreanen Said Taher hade hotat att skjuta huvudet av en lärare på skolan och polisanmälts samt stängts av från skolan. Personal på skolan berättar i polisens förundersökning hur situationen med Taher blivit ohållbar. Såväl personal som elever är rädda för eritreanen som istället får hemundervisning.
Vinstagårdsskolan i Hässelby, väster om StockholmVinstagårdsskolan i Hässelby, väster om Stockholm.
Jimmy får höra från två av sina vänner hur skulden till Tony och Said växt till 2000 kronor. Samma villkor gäller fortfarande; betala eller dö. Främlingarnas irritation växer sig allt större när de inte får tag på Jimmy, som knappt vågar sig utanför dörren längre. Den 26 januari möter två av Jimmys kamrater, vi kan kalla dem Johan och Rickard, Said Taher och en kille som kallar sig Basti. Johan och Rickard får motta örfilar och sparkar tills de går med på att gå hem till Jimmy och lura ut honom till främlingarna. De vågar inget annat.
Johan och Rickard får med sig Jimmy ut ur lägenheten men ändrar sig dock på vägen och tar med Jimmy till ett närliggande snabbmatsställe istället för den uttalade mötesplatsen och den stundande misshandeln. Främlingarna söker dock upp pojkarna på restaurangen en stund senare, som får fly in och gömma sig på lagret medan personalen motar ut främlingsgänget.
Släpas ut i Grimstaskogen
Situationen går dock snabbt från värre till värst. Främlingsgänget har bestämt sig för att Jimmy ska hosta fram pengarna och ger sig inte i första taget. De unga svenska pojkarna får smugglas in och ut genom bakvägen i skolan bara för att ha så mycket som en chans att hänga med i undervisningen. Någon dag senare är Jimmys kamrat Rickard på väg hem från skolan. När han kliver av tunnelbanan i Vällingby för att ta sig upp mot busshållplatsen möter han på nytt Said Taher tillsammans med en kumpan. Said sliter med sig Rickard från stationen, väl avsides ansluter ytterligare vänner till främlingen och tillsammans släpar de Rickard ner till Grimstaskogen, en knapp kilometer från Vällingby centrum. Gänget befaller Rickard att sätta sig ned och tvingar honom att ringa dit Jimmy. Trots upprepade försök svarar inte Jimmy. Said Taher tappar fattningen lägger en kraftig spark i Rickards bakhuvud så blodvite uppstår. Omtöcknad, chockad och livrädd försöker Rickard istället ringa Jimmys pappa. ”Kan du komma ner hit med 500 kronor så vi kan gå på gatorna igen?”, vädjar pojken till sin väns pappa. Pappan hälsar att om de här killarna vill något så får de ringa själva och slänger på luren.
Said blir rasande och sparkar Rickard i huvudet igen. Rickard faller till marken och får motta flertalet sparkar och knytnävsslag mot huvudet innan Said länsar pojkens fickor. I förhör berättar Rickard om traumat efter misshandeln, om den psykiska påfrestningen av att inte våga gå utanför dörren, om hur han fick ge upp innebandyn eftersom Said bodde i närheten av träningslokalen. Till råga på allt utsattes Rickard för ytterligare ett mordhot, då Tony Lavenztakis ringer upp honom och kräver att han ska dra tillbaka sin polisanmälan. Annars dör han.
Familjen attackeras i hemmet
Stärkta av dagens övergrepp mot Rickard i Grimstaskogen samlar främlingsgänget ihop sig för nästa drabbning. De har blivit sturska och fått blodvittring, ikväll ska pengarna inkasseras från barnstjärnan. En samling om ett dussin ungdomar, mestadels främlingar med Said Taher, Tony Lavenztakis och Basti i täten, tar sig från Hässelby till Spånga. Jimmy har Rickard över och ser på film i pojkrummet. Jimmys pappa ser på tv i vardagsrummet.
I ett första försök försöker främlingarna locka ut Jimmy. Två tjejer skickas fram att ringa på dörren för att få ut pojkarna på gatan. Bluffen genomskådas och pojkarna stänger och låser alla dörrar, och gömmer sig i sovrummet. Tre minuter senare ringer dörrklockan igen och Jimmys pappa går och öppnar dörren.
Främlingspojken står med simmiga ögon och knutna nävar och vaggar framför pappan, märkbart påverkad av något. Bakom sig har han ett par tre hotfulla kompisar. I förhör har pappan berättat hur han tolkat pojkens kroppsspråk som om han bara stod och övervägde huruvida han skulle hoppa på pappan eller inte. ”Jimmy ska ut. Vi ska snacka med honom!”, krävde pojken och tog ett steg framåt som om han hade bestämt sig. Pappan avväpnar kvickt situationen genom att sätta en hand i bröstet på främlingen och knuffa undan honom innan han slog igen dörren. För polisen har pappan berättat hur han tydligt kunde känna ett vapen, en batong eller ett järnrör, innanför jackan på pojken. Någon minut efter tumultet i dörren smällde det i vardagsrummet och en gatsten flög in genom fönstret. I samma stund ringer pappan polisen.
I och med attacken i hemmet blev situationens allvar uppenbart för Jimmys föräldrar. Jimmy får byta skola och flytta upp till sin morfar i Värmland där han fick stanna hela våren för att gå i skola. I vittnesförhör har Jimmys mamma förklarat att det inte alls är ovanligt att invandrarkillarna pressar svenska killar på pengar. Jimmy var varken den första eller den sista. Så ser livet i förorten ut. Jimmy fick pendla till föräldrahemmet på helgerna för att träffa föräldrarna och kompisarna. Hoten fortsatte dock telefonledes från främlingarna, i ett SMS från Jimmy till Rickard en vecka efter stenattacken varnar Jimmy sin kamrat. ”Det var en blatte som ringde och hota mig. Han sa att han visste var jag bodde och var mina äckliga kompisar bor, och att han skulle döda oss alla!” Till slut valde Jimmys familj att sälja sitt hus och flytta till ett annat område. Familjen fick nog av mångkulturen.
Said TaherEritreanen Said Taher under förhandlingarna vid Solna tingsrätt.
Familjen flyr – främlingarna bor kvar
Det blev slutligen rättegång av främlingarnas trakasserier av de svenska pojkarna. Den 3 juli föll domen och eritreanen Said Taher dömdes till ungdomsvård och 100 timmars ungdomstjänst för en rad åtalspunkter, bland annat för olaga tvång, rån och försök till utpressning. Taher dömdes också att betala ut drygt 77 000 kronor i skadestånd till de tre pojkarna och den hotade musikläraren.
I många avseenden slutade fallet med barnstjärnans möte med mångkulturen lyckligt. I det här fallet slapp någon en kniv i halsen, lämnad att blöda ur i ett dike. Barnstjärnan Jimmys fall är på intet sätt det värsta, eller ens bland de värsta utslagen av svenskfientlig gängmentalitet bland ungdomar det är däremot ett alldeles ypperligt tydligt exempel på den lågintensiva etniska terrorism i förorterna, den härskande kolonialmentaliteten i de segregerade områdena där svenska pojkar och flickor jagas som villebråd av multietniska gäng. Det är svenskfientligheten i sitt esse, de vardagsfallen som inte når den etablerade medians svarta rubriker.
Jimmys familj hade möjligheten, och de ekonomiska resurserna, att fly helvetet. Hade de bott kvar i området hade historien antagligen förr eller senare slutat betydligt blodigare. För många svenskar i miljonprogrammen finns dock inte den möjligheten. Man får acceptera sin lott och hålla käften. Traditionella svenska arbetarklassområden förvandlas till experimentella häxkittlar av våld, kriminalitet och svenskfientlighet. Det är ungdomar som Jimmy och hans vänner som får ta den värsta smällen.
Jimmy, Rickard och Johan heter egentligen något annat.

Brutal gruppvåldtäkt i Kortedala

Varför skriver inte media hur gärningsmännen ser ut? Vill dom inte skydda våra kvinnor i Sverige? Är kulturberikning viktigare än våra kvinnors framtid och säkerhet?

Info14.com GÖTEBORG | Publicerad: igår 20:52

Under söndagskvällen blev en kvinna indragen i skogen vid Kortedala torg i Göteborg där hon blev brutalt våldtagen av tre ”kulturberikare”. Ingen misstänkt är ännu gripen.

Det var under gårdagskvällen som en kvinna under sin promenad blev överfallen och våldtagen av tre män. Enligt polisen är det en synnerligen grov överfallsvåldtäkt och ambulans fick föra kvinnan till sjukhus.
Flera polispatruller började söka efter gärningsmännen som beskrivs vara i 20-25 års ålder, en av dem har afrikanskt utseende och de två andra arabiskt utseende. I sedvanlig ordning har de sistnämnda ”detaljerna” inte nämnts av massmedia, utan man har endast gått ut med uppgifter om åldern på gärningsmännen.
Polisen har ännu inte gripit några misstänkta och det är heller inte känt om de gjort några fynd vid den tekniska undersökning som pågått vid idrottsplatsen Kortedalavallen.

Tecknaren står överst på terroristernas dödslista

Så snackas det om hur fredligt Islam är….

 Expressen 27 Oktober 2009

Överst på terroristernas dödslista:
Tecknaren Kurt Westergaard, 75.

Terroristerna skulle slå till mot Jyllandsposten och hämnas för karikatyrteckningarna på Muhammed.

Toppar dödslistan

Överst på dödslistan stod Kurt Westergaard, 75, som ritade teckningen med Muhammed med en bombturban.
- Jag blir rasande över att mitt liv hotas. På det sättet känner jag att jag står upp mot angriparen i stället för att bli rädd och vilja fly, säger Kurt Westergaard till Ekstrabladet.
- Sedan är jag en gammal man också, det hjälper. Då blir man inte så rädd för något sådant.
Dödshotet ändrar inte Kurt Westergaards syn på teckningarna.
- Jag har bara gjort mitt jobb, säger han till Ekstrabladet.

Kvällsposten 27 Oktober 2009

Muslimerna surar fortfarande över Muhammed karikatyrerna. Det får mig att vilja publicera bilderna dagligen framöver. “Get over yourself, muslim!”- (egen kommentar)

Terrorplanen kallades "Projekt Musse Pigg".
Målet: Danska Jyllandsposten.
Två män med anknytningar till al-Qaida har gripits misstänkta för att ha planerat en hämnd för Muhammedkarikatyrerna.

Terroristerna skulle använda bomber och handeldvapen i sin attack på Jyllandsposten.
På tisdagen avslöjade danska och amerikanska myndigheter att två män - amerikanen David Coleman Headley, 49, och kanadensaren Tahawwur Hussain Rana, 48 - gripits misstänkta för terrorplaner mot Danmark.

Greps i Chicago

"Terrorangreppen har inte varit omedelbart förestående, men det var nödvändigt att göra gripandena nu för att minska risken att de skulle genomföras", sa Jakob Scharf, chef vid danska säkerhetspolisen, under en presskonferens på tisdagen. Foto: AP

Männen greps i Chicago 3 och 18 oktober.
- Terrorangreppen har inte varit omedelbart förestående, men det var nödvändigt att göra gripandena nu för att minska risken att de skulle genomföras, säger danska säkerhetspolisens chef Jakob Scharf enligt Jyllandsposten.
David Coleman Headley har varit i Danmark för att rekognoscera inför attacken, enligt misstankarna.

Lurade sig in på redaktionen

Bland annat ska han ha lyckats lura in sig på Jyllandspostens redaktion, genom att låtsas vilja annonsera i tidningen.
Under sitt besök på tidningen ska David Coleman Headley ha videofilmat - vilket misstänks vara en del av kartläggningen inför dådet.
De anhållna ska ha kontakter med personer från flera terrornätverk i Pakistan och USA.
Danska och amerikanska myndigheter misstänker att fler är inblandade i planerna.

Bosnia 'on brink of new civil war'

Bosnia is heading for a new civil war as a constitutional crisis threatens to cause the collapse of the political system, the country's leaders have warned.

The concerns have been triggered by Bosnian Serb leaders who have stepped up their demands for independence with a warning the country is no longer "sustainable".

The growing ethnic divisions have raised fears of a return to the fighting which claimed the lives of up to 110,000 people between 1992 and 1995.

Senior European and US officials have called an emergency meeting in Sarajevo on Tuesday to meet the country's leaders to find a solution.

The crisis centres on attempts to overhaul the constitution which was imposed on the country in 1995 in the wake of the war.

Since then Bosnia has been made up of two semi-independent entities – the Serbs' Republika Srpska and the Muslim-Croat Federation.

The two are linked with weak central institutions whose functioning is often obstructed by ethnic rivalries.

Serb groups claim attempts to streamline the complex government system are designed to undermine their position and absorb them into stronger central state.

Milorad Dodik, the Bosnian Serb prime minister, has described constitutional changes as "unnecessary and unacceptable".

"Bosnia is an unsustainable country ... the international community has overplayed its hand in Bosnia, and this will become evident in the end," he said.

Mr Dodik has called for referendum on self-determination to be included in the constitution that could pave the way for Republika Srpska's independence from Bosnia.

Sulejman Tihic, the leader of Bosnia's largest Bosnian Muslim party, said he fears that a new war could be looming.

"If it continues to go on like this, there is no question there will be conflict. It's just a question of what kind of conflict there will be, and is it going to be in three months, six months or one year?," he said.

Lord Ashdown, who served as the international community's High Representative in Bosnia from 2002 until 2006, has also sounded the alarm.

"This is a crucial moment and if the international community fails to address it, Bosnia risks slipping towards disintegration," he said.

Jim Steinberg, the US deputy secretary of state, will fly to Sarajevo on Tuesday for talks aimed at breaking the deadlock, along with Carl Bildt, the Swedish foreign minister, and Olli Rehn, the European Commissioner for Enlargement.

Mr Rehn said on Wednesday: "This political stalemate has dragged this country backwards.

"I hope that Bosnian leaders will rise to the occasion for the sake of their citizens and for the sake of the Western Balkans and Europe as a whole."

Brussels is holding out the prospect of EU membership as an incentive for constitutional reforms.

"We are aiming at agreeing certain constitutional changes that will make Bosnia-Herzegovina a functional state and able to be considered as candidate country for the EU. We want Bosnia Hercegovina to be a credible applicant for EU and Nato membership.

"But for this to happen the country needs to stand on its own feet without the OHR [High Representative] and its broad executive powers. No quasi-protectorate can join the EU."

Bosnia-Hercegovina is still recovering from the devastating three-year war which followed the break-up of Yugoslavia in the early 1990s.

The conflict centred on whether Bosnia should stay in the Yugoslav Federation, or whether it should become independent.

The war left Bosnia's infrastructure and economy in tatters. Around two million people – about half the population – were displaced.

Nästan var femte vill se SD i riksdagen

 

Aftonbladet 26 Oktober 2009

Ny Sifo-undersökning presenterad i SVT:s Agenda

18 procent av väljarna vill se Sverigedemokraterna i riksdagen, enligt en undersökning som SVT:s "Agenda" låtit göra.

– Det handlar till stor del om missnöjesväljare som vill ge makten en örfil, säger Mona Sahlin.

– Det här är nog en större grupp än vad som verkligen skulle rösta på dem vid ett val, sade Mona Sahlin (S) i söndagens Agenda.

Hon säger dock att det är viktigt att ta debatten för att partiet inte ska få samma gratisskjuts som Ny Demokrati fick av missnöjesväljare.

– Att försöka blunda bort Sverigedemokraterna, och inte låtsas om dem, är en misslyckad strategi.

Måste bemöta SD

Maud Olofsson (C) tror också hon att många av de som uppgav att de vill se SD i riksdagen gör det för att "röra om i grytan".

Hon säger att det är viktigt att inte låta partiet få en offerroll som en underdog mot etablissemanget.

– Vi måste gå i klinch.

Mona Sahlin passade också på att ännu en gång framföra att det rödgröna blocket aldrig kommer att samarbeta med SD om de kommer in i riksdagen.

Lena Mellin, Aftonbladets politiska kommentator, tror dock att politikerna måste vara försiktiga med vilken slags uppmärksamhet de ger partiet.

Bra att publicera

– Genom att offentligt diskutera en eventuell vågmästarroll i nästa val, och hur partiblocken i så fall gör då, är att märkvärdiggöra Sverigedemokraterna på ett obegripligt sätt. De är fortfarande ett väldigt litet parti, säger hon till Aftonbladet.se efter debatten.

Mellin säger att man ska ta uppgiften att 18 procent vill ha SD i riksdagen med en nypa salt.

– Vi hade en undersökning i veckan som visade att 12 procent kunde tänka sig att rösta på Sverigedemokraterna. Det handlar nog om att vilja röra om i grytan och markera missnöje mot dem som sitter, snarare än rasism.

Lena Mellin var också med i Agenda-studion på söndagskvällen med anledning av att Aftonbladet i veckan publicerade en debattartikel av Jimmy Åkesson om partiets syn på islam.

Något Maud Olofsson tyckte var bra.

– Jag tror att många svenskar inte har förstått att Sverigedemokraterna verkligen står för detta och blev chockade.

Exclusive: The Koran and Hadith Go Against Human Rights

Family Security Matters October 5, 2009

The Koran, the holy book of Muslims, and Hadith (fatwas of the prophet Muhammad) contain numerous passages that are incompatible with the UN Declaration of Human Rights to which, by the way, all Muslim states have officially subscribed.

One might argue that the Bible and the Old Testament of both Christians and Jews also contain atrocious passages that go against human rights. (For further information, click here.) However, while Christians and Jews ignore these atrocious passages and look at them in a historical context, Muslim believers, especially radical Muslims, do not. They are convinced that both the Koran and Hadith are sacred scriptures; the word of Allah and must be followed and implemented to the letter. Suicide and car bombers are a clear case in point. Many Muslims believe that Sharia (which includes both the Koran and Hadith) must be introduced and applied all over the world as the only best law for all human beings.

Here are some examples which clearly show that Islam is diametrically opposed to universal human rights.

While Article 18 of the UN Declaration of Human Rights prescribes: “Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief ….” the Koran prescribes the opposite. It says about freedom of thought, conscience and religion:

“O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.” (Sura 5, verse 51).

And the Jews say: Uzair is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah DESTROY them; how they are turned away!” (Sura 9, verse 30).

And the Jews will not be pleased with you, nor the Christians until you follow their religion. Say: Surely Allah's guidance, that is the (true) guidance. And if you follow their desires after the knowledge that has come to you, you shall have no guardian from Allah, nor any helper.” (Sura 2, verse 120).

“And KILL them (the unbelievers) wherever you find them, and drive them out from whence they drove you out, and persecution is severer than slaughter, and do not fight with them at the Sacred Mosque until they fight with you in it, but if they do fight you, then slay them; such is the recompense of the unbelievers.” (Sura 2, verse 191).

“So when you meet those who disbelieve, strike their necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either confer favor afterwards or ransom them. That is the command. And if Allah had willed, He could have taken vengeance upon them, but He ordered armed struggle to test some of you by means of others.”(Sura 47, verse 4)

“Let not the believers take the unbelievers for friends rather than believers; and whoever does this, heshall have nothing of (the guardianship of) Allah, but you should guard yourselves against them, guarding carefully; and Allah makes you cautious of (retribution from) Himself; and to Allah is the eventual coming.” (Sura 3, verse 28).

And what does the Koran say about freedom of religion and about those who turn their back to Islam and commit apostasy?

“They desire that you should disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not from among them (the unbelievers) friends until they flee (their homes) in Allah's way; but if they turn back, then seize them and KILL them wherever you find them, and take not from among them a friend or a helper.” (Sura 4, verse 89).

While the UN Declaration of Human Rights condemns in Article 2 any discrimination based on sex by saying, “Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status,” the Koran calls for discrimination against women. It says:

“Men are superior to women because Allah has made so. Therefore good women are obedient, and (as to) those (women) on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and BEAT them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.” (Sura 4, verse 34).

“And as for those who are guilty of an indecency from among your women, call to witnesses against them, four (witnesses) from among you; then if they bear witness confine them to the houses until death takes them away or Allah opens some way for them.” (Sura 4, verse 15).

Men are allowed to beat women:

“Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and (as to) those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great.(Sura 4, verse 34)

According to the Koran, a woman’s testimony is worth half of that of a man:

O you who believe! when you deal with each other in contracting a debt for a fixed time then call in to witness from among your men two witnesses; but if there are not two men, then one man and two women from among those whom you choose to be witnesses, so that if one of the two errs, the second of the two may remind the other.” (Sura 2, verse 282).

As far as sex is concerned, women are sex objects, according to the Koran. They must be ready for intercourse any time the husband wishes:

“Your wives are a tilth for you, so go into your tilth when you like, and do good beforehand for yourselves, and be careful (of your duty) to Allah, and know that you will meet Him, and give good news to the believers.” (Sura 2, verse 223).

During menstruation, however, men should keep away from women; they are filthy. The Koran says:

“It (menstruation) is a discomfort; therefore keep aloof from the women during the menstrual discharge and do not go near them until they have become clean; then when they have cleansed themselves, go in to them as Allah has commanded you; surely Allah loves those who turn much (to Him), and He loves those who purify themselves.” (Sura 2, verse 222).

According to the Koran women are, in general, unclean creatures. After a Muslim has washed and prepared himself for prayer, he should not touch a woman. Therefore, “pious” Muslims never shake hands with women.

“O you who believe! do not go near prayer until you have washed yourselves; and if you have touched women, and you cannot find water, betake yourselves to pure earth, then wipe your faces and your hands; surely Allah is Pardoning, Forgiving.” (Sura 4, verse 43).

In case of inheritance, a woman inherits half of the portion a man inherits:

“They ask you for a decision of the law. Say: Allah gives you a decision concerning the person who has neither parents nor offspring; if a man dies (and) he has no son and he has a sister, she shall have half of what he leaves, and he shall be her heir she has no son; but if there be two (sisters), they shall have two-thirds of what he leaves; and if there are brethren, men and women, then the male shall have the like of the portion of two females; Allah makes clear to you, lest you err; and Allah knows all things.” (Sura 4, verse 176).

The Hadith is also full with passages that brazenly discriminate against women and followers of other faiths. Here are some of these passages: 

Women are deficient in intelligence and religion:

"The women asked, "O Allah's Apostle! What is deficient in our intelligence and religion?" He said, "Is not the evidence of two women equal to the witness of one man?" They replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her intelligence. Isn't it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?" The women replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her religion."  (Book #6, Hadith #301)

Women who pass by a praying man annul his prayer:

Narrated 'Aisha: The things which annul prayer were mentioned before me (and those were): a dog, a donkey and a Woman. I said, "You have compared us (women) to donkeys and dogs. By Allah! I saw the Prophet praying while I used to lie in (my) bed between him and the Qibla. Whenever I was in need of something, I disliked to sit and trouble the Prophet. So, I would slip away by the side of his feet."  (Book #9, Hadith#493)

A Jew also annuls the prayers of a man:

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: Ikrimah reported on the authority of Ibn Abbas, saying: I think the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: When one of you prays without a sutrah, a dog, an ass, a pig, a Jew, a Magian, and a woman cut off his prayer, but it will suffice if they pass in front of him at a distance of over a stone's throw.  (Book #2, Hadith#0704)

Prophet Muhammad discriminates even against black dogs:

Abu Dharr reported: The Messenger of 'Allah (may peace be upon him) said: When any one of you stands for prayer and there is a thing before him equal to the back of the saddle that covers him and in case there is not before him (a thing) equal to the back of the saddle, his prayer would be cut off by (passing of an) ass, woman, and black Dog. I said: O Abu Dharr, what feature is there in a black dog which distinguish it from the red dog and the yellow dog? He said: O, son of my brother, I asked the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) as you are asking me, and he said: The black dog is a devil.  (Book #004, Hadith #1032)

While Article 13 of the UN Declaration of Human Rights stresses, “Everyone has the right to freedom of movement,” women in Islam are not allowed to travel alone:

(38) Narrated Ibn 'Umar: The Prophet said, "A Woman should not travel for more than three days except with a Dhi-Mahram (i.e. a male with whom she cannot marry at all, e.g. her brother, father, grandfather, etc.) or her own husband.)"  (Book #20, Hadith#192)

(40) Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "It is not permissible for aWoman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to travel for one day and night except with a Mahram."  (Book #20, Hadith #194)

Women are not allowed to mourn as long they want. Why only four months and ten days? Only Allah knows:

(49) Narrated Zainab bint Abi Salama: When the news of the death of Abu Sufyan reached from Sham, Um Habiba on the third day, asked for a yellow perfume and scented her cheeks and forearms and said, "No doubt, I would not have been in need of this, had I not heard the Prophet saying: "It is not legal for a Woman who believes in Allah and the Last Day to mourn for more than three days for any dead person except her husband, for whom she should mourn for four months and ten days."  (Book #23, Hadith #370)

Non-Muslims are also subjugated to the “law” of Sharia:

(54) Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar : The Jews brought to the Prophet a man and aWoman from amongst them who have committed (adultery) illegal sexual intercourse. He ordered both of them to be stoned (to death), near the place of offering the funeral prayers beside the mosque."  (Book #23, Hadith #413)

A woman is allowed to fast only with permission from her husband:

The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: No woman should observe fast when her spouse is present (in the house) but with his permission. And she should not admit any (mahram) in his house, while he (her husband) is present, but with his permission. And whatever she spends from his earnings without his sanction, for him is half the reward.  (Book #005, Hadith #2238)

As a man, if you see an alien woman, rush immediately to your wife and have intercourse with her to repel the devil in that woman:

Jabir reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) saw a woman, and so he came to his wife, Zainab, as she was tanning a leather and had sexual intercourse with her. He then went to his Companions and told them: The woman advances and retires in the shape of a devil, so when one of you sees a woman, he should come to his wife, for that will repel what he feels in his heart.  (Book #008, Hadith #3240)

Jabir heard Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) say: When a woman fascinates any one of you and she captivates his heart, he should go to his wife and have an intercourse with her, for it would repel what he feels.  (Book #008, Hadith #3242)

Women are solely for beauty, status, and believers. Their brains are insignificant:

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: A woman may be married for four reasons: for her property, her status. her beauty and her religion, so try to get one who is religious, may your hand be besmeared with dust.  (Book #008, Hadith #3457)

Women are crooks and useless creatures:

AbuHuraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: woman is like a rib. When you attempt to straighten it, you would break it. And if you leave her alone you would benefit by her, and crookedness will remain in her. A hadith like this is reported by another chain of narrators. (Book #008, Hadith#3466)

A woman who commits adultery must be stoned to death. She sacrifices her life for Allah:

Imran b. Husain reported that a woman from Juhaina came to Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) and she had become pregnant because of adultery. She said: Allah's Apostle, I have done something for which (prescribed punishment) must be imposed upon me, so impose that. Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) called her master and said: Treat her well, and when she delivers bring her to me. He did accordingly. Then Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) pronounced judgment about her and her clothes were tied around her and then he commanded and she was stoned to death. He then prayed over her (dead body). Thereupon Umar said to him: Allah's Apostle, you offer prayer for her, whereas she had committed adultery! Thereupon he said: She has made such a repentance that if it were to be divided among seventy men of Medina, it would be enough. Have you found any repentance better than this that she sacr ficed her life for Allah, the Majestic?  (Book #017, Hadith #4207)

Women are simply bad luck, bad omen:

'Umar b. Muhammad b. Zaid reported that he heard his father narrating from Ibn 'Umar that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) had said. If bad luck is a fact, then it is in the horse, the woman and the house.  (Book #026, Hadith #5526)

Narrated Sa'd ibn Malik: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: There is no hamah, no infection and no evil omen; if there is in anything an evil omen, it is a house, a horse, and a woman.  (Book #29, Hadith #3911)

Women are breeding machines:

Narrated Ma'qil ibn Yasar: A man came to the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) and said: I have found a woman of rank and beauty, but she does not give birth to children. Should I marry her? He said: No. He came again to him, but he prohibited him. He came to him third time, and he (the Prophet) said: Marry women who are loving and very prolific, for I shall outnumber the peoples by you.  (Book #11, Hadith #2045)

A woman is an unavoidable evil, and marrying a woman is like buying a slave:

Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: If one of you marries a woman or buys a slave, he should say: "O Allah, I ask Thee for the good in her, and in the disposition Thou hast given her; I take refuge in Thee from the evil in her, and in the disposition Thou hast given her." When he buys a camel, he should take hold of the top of its hump and say the same kind of thing.  (Book #11, Hadith #2155)

If you incite a slave against their master, you are not a good Muslim:

Narrated AbuHurayrah: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Anyone who incites awoman against her husband or a slave against his master is not one of us.  (Book #12, Hadith #2170)

While Article 16 of the UN Declaration of Human Rights stresses that men and women “are entitled to equal rights as to marriage, during marriage and at its dissolution,” Islam makes it difficult for women to divorce:

Narrated Thawban: The Prophet (peace be_upon_him) said: If any woman asks her husband for divorce without some strong reason, the odour of Paradise will be forbidden to her. (Book #12, Hadith #2218)

If you want to free a slave, free first the men, then the women:

Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu'minin: Al-Qasim said: Aisha intended to set free two slaves of her who were spouses. She, therefore, asked the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) about this matter. He commanded to begin with the man before the woman. The narrator Nasr said: AbuAli al-Hanafi reported it to me on the authority of Ubaydullah.  (Book #12, Hadith #2229)

Forced marriage and forced divorce:

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: A woman embraced Islam during the time of the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him); she then married. Her (former) husband then came to the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) and said: Apostle of Allah, I have already embraced Islam, and she had the knowledge about my Islam. The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) took her away from her latter husband and restored her to her former husband.  (Book #12, Hadith #2231)

The son of a slave woman consummated by a free man is not allowed to inherit anything:

Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) decided regarding one who was treated as a member of a family after the death of his father, to whom he was attributed when the heirs said he was one of them, that if he was the child of a slave-woman whom the father owned when he had intercourse with her, he was included among those who sought his inclusion, but received none of the inheritance which was previously divided; he, however, received his portion of the inheritance which had not already been divided; but if the father to whom he was attributed had disowned him, he was not joined to the heirs. If he was a child of a slave-woman whom the father did not possess or of a free woman with whom he had illicit intercourse, he was not joined to the heirs and did not inherit even if the one to whom he was attributed is the one who claimed paternity, since he was a child of fornication whether his mother was free or a slave.  (Book #12, Hadith #2258)

A woman whose husband dies must not use any make-up, neither dress up as she pleases. The same does not apply to the man:

Narrated Umm Salamah, Ummul Mu'minin: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Awoman whose husband has died must not wear clothes dyed with safflower (usfur) or with red ochre (mishq) and ornaments. She must not apply henna and collyrium.  (Book#12, Hadith #2297)

Islam is against human rights not only in theory, but also in practice under the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan, under Hamas in Gaza, under Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, in Saudi Arabia, in Iran, Egypt, in the Arab Gulf states, Sudan, Somalia, and Morocco.

After all the above blatant evidence, President Obama and apologists across the globe still believe that Islam is a tolerant “religion.” On the contrary, Islam is a fanatic, stone-age “religion.

More Insults, Please

Blocking Muslim cartoons and other attempts at Web censorship.

The Wall Street Journal October 4, 2009

 

In today's world of instant global communication, disagreements happen more quickly and resentments get established in real time. Just as the British and Americans have been called two nations divided by a common language, today we all share the Internet, yet we are divided by the instant communicating that digital technology makes possible.

Recall the incident in 2005, when a Danish newspaper printed a dozen cartoons featuring the Prophet Mohammed, including one with a bomb in his turban. Posting the cartoons on the Web resulted in protests in much of the Muslim world, including riots and deaths. The bomb-in-the-turban cartoonist, Kurt Westergaard, has received death threats and lives under 24-hour police protection in Copenhagen. Last week he visited the U.S., with the message that when it comes to insult and humor, there is little common ground around the world.

"As the Danish tradition is for satire, we say you can speak freely, you can vote, you can speak out any time, but there's only one thing you can't do—you can't be free of being mocked or being offended," Mr. Westergaard said in a speech in New York City. "That's the condition in Denmark."

Insults are a longstanding part of free expression in much of the West but are under pressure in our digital era of instantaneous communication. Instead of the Internet adding to freedom as we usually assume it does, its global reach makes it an excuse for censorship. Many governments lobby for anti-insult laws, even though insults are a key means of criticism. Leaders of several Muslim countries have tried to get perceived insults to their religion reclassified as offenses.

The Jyllands-Posten newspaper solicited cartoons after threats to Danes by Islamists, including physical attacks on authors, musicians and academics. "In this situation the paper felt that it was imperative to test whether we still enjoyed free speech," Mr. Westergaard wrote in Princeton University's student newspaper last week. This included "the right to treat Islam, Muhammad and Muslims exactly as you would any other religion, prophet or group of believers. If we no longer had that right, one could only conclude that the country had succumbed to de facto sharia law."

As the cartoons spread on the Web, agitators in several countries fanned the flames by adding mocking cartoons and photos that had not actually appeared in the Danish newspaper. Danish Embassies were burned in Syria, Lebanon and Iran, and its exports were boycotted. Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen, now NATO's secretary-general, refused to apologize.

The issue faded until this August, when Yale University Press decided to remove the cartoons from a book it had agreed to publish called "The Cartoons That Shook the World," by Brandeis University Prof. Jytte Klausen. Yale claimed that it was censoring not based on content but because of the risk of violence.

A group of Yale graduates sent a letter objecting. "I think it's horrifying that the campus of Nathan Hale has become the first place where America surrenders to this kind of fear because of what extremists might possibly do," said one of the graduates, Michael Steinberg.

Insults are under threat in many countries. The World Press Freedom Committee earlier this year published a survey, "The Right to Offend, Shock or Disturb," which details how laws against insults are being used to squelch free speech, including opposition to the government.

Last year, French President Nicolas Sarkozy tried to use a 19th-century law against insulting the president to ban voodoo dolls featuring his likeness. The editor of another Web site in Saudi Arabia had to flee the country when he was accused of insulting Islam by criticizing the kingdom's religious police. And in 2007, a Web site in Russia was fined for publishing an article titled "Putin as Phallic Symbol of Russia," satirizing the prime minister's effort to increase the country's birthrate.

Contrast this with the admiration we have for great insults. Winston Churchill was the master of the putdown, dismissing various political opponents as "a modest man, who has much to be modest about," "a sheep in sheep's clothing," and someone who "has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire."

An article in Heeb, a self-mockingly named Jewish satire magazine, criticized Yale's censorship of the Danish cartoons: "While we would definitely be opposed to Yale University desecrating the Torah, we certainly wouldn't think it inappropriate if, in a book about the subject, they showed some photos of desecrated Torahs." The writer tried to follow Yale's contorted reasoning to justify the removal of the cartoons from a book about the cartoons, but gave up: "Who knows? We have no idea, but one thing is for sure—we know who we're rooting for in this year's Harvard-Yale game." Nice insult.

Om att sälja ut frihetliga värden

Erixon Blogg 24 oktober 2009 · 18:10

I Dagens Nyheter har författaren Lena Andersson en utmärkt kolumn där hon vänder sig emot dem som inte vågar yppa kritik mot islam och därför inte försvarar västerländska värderingar, Beröringsskräck:

Reaktionen på de populistiska partierna i Europa är ofta så här känslomässig. När de talar om exempelvis islamiseringen av Europa och radikaliseringen av islam får man aldrig klart för sig om de ska hålla tyst för att de har fel i sak eller för att de har rätt i sak.

Det som rör andra folkgrupper än den egna får helt enkelt aldrig vara ett bekymmer även om det råkar vara det. Då måste bekymrets rot av artighetsskäl förläggas hos den egna gruppens attityder, aldrig hos minoriteten. Det kan vara rätt för att undvika splittring och att utsatta grupper känner sig ovälkomna i sitt eget land, men det främjar inte en rimlig diskussion om samhällets förändring.

Här är det livsviktigt att värderingar kommer först. Har en minoritetsgruppering fel, ska vi kunna säga det. Det är inte tro, hudfärg eller kön som avgör om människor tänker rätt. Det är vad som sägs och görs som ska stå i fokus. De som uttrycker förakt för demokrati, individuell frihet och människors lika värde ska bemötas, oavsett vilken bakgrund budbärarna har.

TRAIL OF TERROR Islamic takeover of U.S. already under way

Posted: October 03 2009 WorldNetDaily

Expert warns 'mainstream media' providing 'talking points' of Arab countries

An expert on terrorism is warning the United States should be fighting Islamization, which she believes already is under way. And author Brigitte Gabriel should know: She watched it happen in her native Lebanon.

"Lebanon used to be the only majority Christian country in the Middle East," Gabriel told radio talk show host Andrea Shea King in a recent hour-long interview "Most people today do not know that. We were the majority, the Muslims were the minority, but as the years went by, the Muslims became the majority because of their birth rate, but also because of our open-border policy.

"We welcomed everyone into our country," Gabriel said, and people didn't realize that the "minority," the Muslims in the society, "was not tolerant" and "did not believe all people were equal."

"They tried to impose their way of thinking on us, and they succeeded," she said.

The result, Gabriel said, was that a radical terrorist organization tied to Islam, Hezbollah, now rules in Lebanon.

As WND reported, Gabriel is fearful that terrorists believe now is the time to strike at America, while it is distracted by financial tension and election turmoil. She expressed the concerns during an interview with KSFO's Barbara Simpson, when she also discussed her new book, "They Must Be Stopped: Why We Must Defeat Radical Islam and How We Can Do It

Gabriel's new interview with King is available on BlogTalkRadio.

She noted it's been seven years since the Sept. 11, 2001, act of war on U.S. soil by Islamists, but America is falling to Islam's attack, and the battle already is far advanced.

"They do not need to fire a single bullet to destroy us," she said. "They are taking over our country culturally, just like they have taken over Europe."

She said Islam is being taught across the U.S. as part of world history courses for seventh graders.

"A three-week course is teaching students to memorize and recite Islamic prayers and verses from the Quran," she said. "Students have to adopt Islamic names, fast for a day to experience Ramadan, the holiest of Islamic religious holidays, and write about their experience as a Muslim at the end of the program. The exercises during the class include encouraging students to incorporate Arabic phrases such as Allahu Akbar in their speeches, and for students to imagine they were meeting disciples on a pilgrimage to Mecca. This is a state-approved curriculum, using state-adopted textbooks that have been part of the instructional program in California for over a decade."

WND reported this week that a new study shows U.S. textbooks provide "information" such as that Jesus was a Palestinian and the nation of Israel imposes terrorism on others but is not a victim a terrorism.

"Now it is being rolled out nationwide. One book I discuss in particular is 'Across the Centuries,' published by Houghton Mifflin. The Muslim Council on Education has been busy working with the State Department of Education and America's top three publishers who …are literally rewriting history," Gabriel said.

"'Across the Centuries' is a staple in the State of California. This textbook is at best, a well of misinformation. It is 558 pages long and covers the 1500 years from the fall of the Roman Empire and the French Revolution. The text includes 55 pages devoted to Islam, seven pages noting the Middle Ages in Europe, and six pages of Christian history. The chapter on the Byzantine Empire received only six pages. The chapter on Islam accounts for 10 percent of the text, while Christianity and Judaism are almost entirely absent," she said.

"This is public education approved by the State Board of Education nationwide! Our students are being indoctrinated into Islam in our public schools and we don't even have a clue! How can this be allowed to be taught in public schools in America? Most people do not know about it because it is flying under the radar!" she said.

At the university level it's worse, she said.

"What's been happening for the last 16 years, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states ... because of the money coming from the oil, they have been pumping millions of dollars into our universities appointing Arab professors who are anti-American, anti-Israel, who have been basically brain-washing our students into believe we are the problem," she said.

"The children, who have been educated in American universities for the last 16 years, have graduated and are now working ... not influenced ... by our patriotic education as Americans, but they have been influenced by Arab thinking ... [and] hatred based on revenge," she said.

"The writing is on the wall. Who would have thought that Shariah would come to Harvard University with regulated women-only gym hours? That an imam in Des Moines, Iowa, gave an opening prayer at the 2007 Iowa Legislature's opening session in which he called on Allah to give victory over those who disbelieve? Muslim taxi drivers in Minnesota who refuse to pick up passengers carrying alcohol? The first Islamic public school, the Kahlil Gibran Academy, that opened in 2007, funded by tax dollars! American colleges designating Islamic prayer rooms on campus for use by Muslims only!" Gabriel said.

"Those of us who come from the Middle East and see what's happening in the U.S. ... shake our heads in amazement," she said, calling her book a warning. "We are coming up to a very important election. This is the time we need to understand what is at stake, why our voice counts, why we need to go out and vote. This is the time to make a difference before it is too late," she said.

She said that's why besides her book, she's launched the ActForAmerica.org website.

"We launched this out of American Congress for Truth as our activism and political lobbying arm because I realized talking by itself is only wasting hot air and is entertainment. Action is the only way that's going to make a difference," she said. "History reveals that the apathetic give way to the passionate, the complacent are subdued by the committed. ACT for America.org is mobilizing people all over the country and giving them the tools to resist the Islamic infiltration in our society on every level: schools, governments, universities and corporations.

"Our work is vital in educating the American public about what is happening behind the scenes," she said.

"I encourage people to go to our website Act for America.org. I know we have citizen action training seminars coming up in Kansas City and in Indianapolis within the next two weeks. Sign up and attend them if you are in those areas. And check where we have chapters across the country and either join a chapter, or if there's no chapter in your community, sign up to lead one. Organized power at the grass roots level trumps the voices of political correctness," Gabriel said.

"The radical Islamists promised to destroy us, and as you know from the recent war in Lebanon, that country is now nearly Islamic," she said.

"We are not waiting for this phenomenon to occur here in the war against Islamofascism. We are not simply hoping for spontaneous grassroots eruptions that may or may not come. We are making it occur by organizing grassroots chapters and supporters across America. We will force elected representatives to choose. To align themselves with the grassroots voices of America or the voice of political correctness."

Gabriel was born and raised in Lebanon. When she was 10, her home was bombed by radical Islamists. She spent two and a half months in a hospital with injuries, and then she survived with her parents for seven years hidden in an underground bomb shelter, subsisting without electricity or heat on a meager diet of rice, lentils and tufts of grass that grew outside the shelter. She crawled beneath sniper fire for sips of water from a nearby ditch.

Those who have lived through such experiences are horrified at Americans' attitudes, she said.

"I have two guests staying with me, also from Lebanon, who ran to Israel for their lives when Israel withdrew out of Lebanon. And this is their first trip to America. I took them to New York and to Washington, D.C., last week and we were walking around and they were stunned at the gullibility of Americans. I took them to an air show this past week and they saw Muslims in our military. They looked at me in utter shock and said, 'Do Americans know these same Muslims would turn their guns against their fellow Americans, military men and women in the same tents, and kill them in the name of Islam? What is America thinking?'" Gabriel said.

"We are not only fighting a military jihad, we are fighting a cultural jihad and we need to wake up. We are as much at war with the cultural jihad as we are with the military jihad," Gabriel said.

"Islam is coming to America while we are asleep at the wheel and only focusing on al-Qaida attacking us militarily. The Muslims are taking us over culturally and remember, they don't even have to fire one bullet," she said.

Gabriel's book, according to "American Jihad" author Steve Emerson, is "riveting, compelling and spellbinding. This is a must read for the entire American public."

"A compelling and captivating personal story with a powerful lesson about threats to freedom in our time," said R. James Woolsey, director of Central Intelligence from 1993-1995.

"There is a threat. We must do something about it. We must stop them," Gabriel said.

Earlier, in an interview with WND columnist Larry Elder published in two parts, "Because they hate," and "Because they hate, part 2," Gabriel said al-Qaida already is inside the U.S., as is Hezbollah.

"We estimate thousands have already been smuggled into America. ... Hamas is here. ... They have cells in over 40 states. ... We also need to reform our immigration and visa programs. We need to monitor who is coming into our country and why. ... We need to increase human intelligence. … I want everyone who fits the terrorist profile to be profiled. We have men between the ages of 16 and 40 who have committed terrorist acts around the world in the name of Islam. They are not little old ladies from Ohio with blue hair. They are not children going to Disney World on their Easter vacation," she said.

Elder asked: "What happens if a Democrat wins the 2008 election?"

"We are doomed. Our enemies want the Democrats to win. This last election, jihadist websites were playing victory songs and declaring the Democrats are our allies in the war against America," she said.

Europe: Lebanese authorities uncover European terror network

Europe News 06 October 2009

Lebanese authorities uncovered what they think is a European Fatah al-Islam network, branching into Norway, Sweden and Finland, reports Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera in its Saturday edition.
The network, according to the newspaper, enjoyed Scandinavia's tradition hospitality to immigrants when they established cells in Northern Europe. 
The network is inspired by al-Qaeda and according to the newspaper's sources had prepared plans to commit acts of terror in Europe.
Air-traffic, public buildings and 'cultural symbols' were named as targets for the acts Fatah al-Islam wanted to commit.
some of the members came into the EU in recent months from Syria and Lebanon and then ran an extensive travel business in Europe with stolen or phony papers.
The purpose of this trips was to map out possible terror targets.
A "European head office" was established several months ago in Greece by a central member of the Lebanese terror groups, and from there the terror network's travel activities were coordinated.
Unnamed Lebanese sources describe this central member as Muhammed Musa, also known by the alias Abu Muslim.
The Lebanese sources claim, according to the paper's journalist Guido Olimpio, that there was also a Nordic Fatah al-Islam cell, with members in Norway, Sweden and Finland.
The reason the Lebanese network chose Scandinavia was that they wanted to take advantage of the region's traditional hospitality towards immigrants and lack of inspection by local authorities, writes the Milan newspaper's terrorism expert.
Among the Fatah al-Islam member who established themselves in Europe were some who were trained sabotage activities.
These people lives in a safe-house in Greece and played a key role in the activities which went on.
A Syrian citizen who had a central role in the terror organization was partially responsible for the Lebanese authorities finding out about the network.
Abu Adnan lived in Greece for several years and was arrested in Lebanon in teh summer.
The Syrian went through several tough interrogations after the arrest, and confessed in these interrogations of building up Fatah al-Islam's European network.
The new data on Fatah al-Islam confirm previous reports that the Lebanese terror network considers Europe both as a place of refuge and a target.
Terrorism expert Brynjar Lia of the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment toldtv2nyhetene.no that Fatah al-Islam is most focused on Lebanon and the Levant, but has a presence in several countries and was involved in attempting operations in Europe.
Arab newspaper Dar al-Hayat claimed in December 2008 that several of the prisoners in the Lebanese Roumieh prison had been in exile in European countries like Sweden, Germany and Denmark before they came to Lebanon to participate in Jihad - holy war.
In December 2008, a court in Dusseldorf sentenced a 24 year old Lebanese to life in prison for attempting to blow up a German train.
The 24 year old was linked to Fatah al-Islam and wanted to blow up the trains in order to take revenge for European media printing cartoons of the prophet Muhammad.
His brother, who was also a suspect in the case, was killed in a battle between the Lebanese army and Fatah al-Islam in Tripoli in 2007.
The Norwegian security service had no comment for tv2nyhetene.no on Fatah al-Islam's Norwegian branch.
