New Speech about Iraq and the Modern World
God's Warriors
Islamic radicals and their supporters on the left have made
systematic efforts to numb the United States and its allies
to the threat of radical Islam. They have done so by
invoking the specter of Islamophobia, Gitmo, Abu Ghraib,
Haditha and other thorny issues to fool the public into
thinking that America is the aggressor in the world war
against Islamic Fascism.

Mass Immigration Our Biggest Mistake Ever -- The majority of the Dutch are negative on Islam and immigration. Additionally, their knowledge of Dutch history is meagre, according to a survey by three history professors. According to 56 percent of the Dutch, Islam is a threat to the Dutch identity. As well, 57 percent named admitting large groups of immigrants as "the biggest mistake in Dutch history".
Saddam Paid for Lawmakers' Iraq Trip -- An indictment unsealed in Detroit accuses Muthanna Al-Hanooti, a member of a Michigan nonprofit group, of arranging for three members of Congress to travel to Iraq in October 2002 at the behest of Saddam's regime. Prosecutors say Iraqi intelligence officials paid for the trip through an intermediary. The lawmakers are not named in the indictment but the dates correspond to a trip by Democratic Reps. Jim McDermott of Washington, David Bonior of Michigan and Mike Thompson of California.
Report Cites Increase in Attacks on Military Recruiting Centers -- windows and bomb scares are growing threats for recruiters working to find young men and women to join the U.S. military, according to a new report that claims attacks on military recruiting stations are on the rise. The report, issued by a not-for-profit group that supports members of the military, calls the incidents — including the spray-painting of graffiti — "attacks," and claims there have been more than 50 since March 2003. "The peace protesters are not peaceful," said Catherine Moy, executive director of Move America Forward, which released the report. "They are violent. They are causing havoc in an illegal manner on recruiting offices across the United States."
U.S. Based Revolution Muslim Website Spreading Messages of Hate -- RevolutionMuslim.com isn't being maintained in some remote safe house in Pakistan. Instead, Yousef al-Khattab, the Web site creator, runs it from his home in the New York City Borough of Queens. And, because al-Khattab enjoys the First Amendment right to freedom of speech, all the authorities can do is watch. Formerly known as Joseph Cohen, al-Khattab is an American-born Jew who converted to Islam after attending an Orthodox Rabbinical school, which he later described as a "racist cult." The 39-year-old New York taxi driver launched RevolutionMuslim.com with the mission of "preserving Islamic culture."
Iran, Not al-Sadr, Leading Shi'a Attacks In Iraq -- As Shi’a militias and armed groups strike out at US and Iraqi targets from Baghdad to Basra, it is curious to note how many news reports attribute the attacks to Muqtada al-Sadr, either directly or indirectly. Rocket attacks on the U.S.-protected Green Zone may carry a message with implications across Iraq: rising anger within the Mahdi Army militia. The Shiite fighters led by anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr are reorganizing their ranks, taking delivery of new weapons from Iran and ramping up complaints about crackdowns by U.S. and Iraqi forces that could unravel the Mahdi Army’s self-declared cease-fire, according to militia commanders.
But Muqtada al-Sadr was sidelined from any command by Iran weeks ago. There are no attributions of direct quotes, commands or comment from Muqtada since the Shi’a militia uprising began in earnest. And there is a very simple explanation for this: The puppet has had his strings cut. Iran is calling the shots.
Web Host Suspends Site Planned For Anti-Koran Film -- A U.S.-based web service, which Islam critic and Dutch right-wing lawmaker Geert Wilders planned to use to show his film critical of the Koran, said on Saturday that it had inactivated the site due to complaints. "This site has been suspended while Network Solutions is investigating whether the site's content is in violation of the Network Solutions Acceptable Use Policy," the company said on the site www.fitnathemovie.com. (But, there is NO CONTENT)
Daily Presidential Tracking Poll -- John McCain continues to lead both potential Democratic opponents. McCain leads Barack Obama 49% to 41% and Hillary Clinton 49% to 43%.
Al-Qaida Blamed In Failed U. S. Site Attack -- An Al-Qaida terror cell was behind a mortar strike against the U.S. embassy in Yemen that missed its target but killed a security guard and wounded 13 students at a nearby school, an Interior Ministry official said Saturday. The official, speaking on customary condition of anonymity, said al- Qaida militant Hamza al-Dayan launched three mortars at the embassy Tuesday before fleeing the scene in a vehicle with three accomplices. The mortar shells crashed into the school in the downtown Sawan district of San'a, killing the security guard and wounding 13 schoolgirls, three grievously.
Whites "Must Do More To Help Muslims Feel At Home" Says Research Group -- Muslim immigrants face so much discrimination and hostility that they don't feel they belong here, according to a liberal research group. As part of efforts to improve integration, it called for an improvement in public behaviour towards Muslims. And it said other Britons are wrong to worry about segregation and Muslim-dominated enclaves, as there are benefits to "residential clustering."
UN Expenses increase 25% — for what? -- Despite long-standing efforts by successive U.S. administrations to rein in U.N. spending, the United Nations this month presented its top donors with a request for nearly $1.1 billion in additional funds over the next two years — boosting current U.N. expenses by 25 percent and marking the global body’s highest-ever administrative budget, according to internal U.N. memos.
Key Questions Still Left After Obama Speech -- The beauty of a speech is that you don't just give the answers, you provide your own questions. "Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes." So said Barack Obama, in his Philadelphia speech about his pastor, friend, mentor and spiritual adviser of 20 years, Jeremiah Wright. An interesting, if belated, admission. But the more important question is: which "controversial" remarks?
Judge Eases Jail For Terror Trial 12 -- THE 12 defendants in Australia's largest terrorism prosecution are not getting a fair trial, the judge overseeing the case has said. The startling admission came as Justice Bernard Bongiorno said the conditions under which the accused are being held are so severe they could cause mental illness and jeopardise their ability to defend themselves. In a ruling he described as "extraordinary'', Justice Bongiorno ordered the men be moved to a new prison and called for their conditions to be upgraded.
"Palestinians" Overwhelmingly Favor Terror And Kassams, Oppose Negotiations -- The New York Times today publishes the results of a poll of 'Palestinians' and discovers that an astounding 84% - the largest number to support a single terror attack - supported the murder of eight Jewish boys at the Merkaz HaRav yeshiva. Some 75% wish to terminate 'negotiations' with Israel and 64% support the launching of rockets on Sderot and Ashkelon.
Obama Church Published Hamas Terror Manifesto -- Sen. Barack Obama's Chicago church reprinted a manifesto by Hamas that defended terrorism as legitimate resistance, refused to recognize the right of Israel to exist and compared the terror group's official charter – which calls for the murder of Jews – to America's Declaration of Independence.
The Islamification Of France -- The French website 5 Years Later has posted maps that illustrate the advance of Islam in France. I’ve taken the latest one from 2008 showing through shades of green the areas of implantation of the religion of peace and tolerance. The numbers on the map are those of the departments and have nothing to do with numbers of Muslims. The chart at the bottom runs from fewer than 5 to more than 30 mosques, prayer rooms or meeting houses. So we see that, in the southwest, department 33 has more than 30 while department 40 has fewer than 5.
Muslims In Europe "Menace To Peace," Says Ambassador -- Muslim immigrants are a serious threat to peace and democracy in Europe, according to the Israeli Ambassador to the Vatican Oded Ben-Hur. "[Muslims] have a different agenda, and are beginning to be a real serious menace to democracy and peace in Europe," he said during a speech at the American University of Rome. Ben-Hur also criticised what he called the Italians' "docile, ostrich-like approach" to Muslims in Italy. "People here in Italy should have raised hell," he said.
NY Appeals Court Rejects Claim By Arabic School Principal -- A federal appeals court says the former principal of an Arabic-themed public school cannot force New York City to give her another shot at getting her job back. The 2nd US Circuit Court of Appeals agreed Thursday that Debbie Almontaser (as acting in her official capacity when she made controversial statements to the press. The trouble started when she discussed the term Intifada. Critics said Almontaser should have condemned the use of the word on T-shirts made by a youth organization.
Sleepy Cornish Village Kept Awake By 700-Strong Party Of Muslims Broadcasting 5 AM Call To Prayer By Loudspeaker -- It is just a few days until Easter, the most important date in the Christian calendar. But for 700 Muslims who have gathered in a rural caravan park, this week has a different religious significance. And to some of their neighbours, the thrice-daily calls to prayer are proving a strain on a harmonious relationship. The Iranian Muslims have converged on the Trevelgue Holiday Park in Porth, Cornwall, to celebrate yesterday's Persian New Year.
Worsening Polls Reveal Obama's Pastor Problem -- Democrat Barack Obama suffered in the polls Thursday after a much-acclaimed speech on race that, pundits said, had failed to defuse voters' anger over rage-filled sermons by his former pastor. Waging an acrimonious battle against Hillary Clinton for the Democrats' White House nomination, Obama confessed to being bruised by the controversy surrounding his longtime Chicago preacher, Reverend Jeremiah Wright.
Foreign Fighters Leaving Iraq -- A growing number of foreign fighters are leaving or attempting to flee Iraq as U.S. and Iraqi forces have weakened al-Qaeda and forced its members from former strongholds, U.S. military officials say.
The trend reflects a broad disenchantment among foreign fighters, particularly since al-Qaeda has lost sanctuaries in parts of Baghdad and Anbar, a Sunni province west of the capital, U.S. military intelligence officials say.
USA To Transfer %150 Million To Palestinians -- An agreement for a USD150 million aid (about 95 million euro) by the United States to the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) was signed in Ramallah, in the West Bank, today. Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad, who signed the agreement with U.S. Consul General Jake Walles, told the media that the financial aid "comes to us at a time of great need and it will help our efforts in building towards Palestinian statehood."
