“Those videos are not much different than videos involving American soldiers targeting Iraqi civilians,” he said. “You have to look at both sides here.”

Bullshit. American soldiers don't target civilians. But the jihadis love to hide amongst them to use them as human shields.

Neighbors described Khan — who immigrated to the U.S. from Saudi Arabia when he was 7 years old — as “friendly” and “reserved.” They said he launched his Web site while taking classes at Central Piedmont Community College and selling Cutco knives.

Go the f home if you don't like it here. F'in loser.

An attack on Islam? If by attack on Islam you mean bringing democracy to Iraq making sure we're around for another century, then sure.

Mahmoud said the blood-drenched videos Khan shows of U.S. soldiers injured in combat “serve the purpose of making the reality of the Iraqi scene visible to people.”

Yeah- because the msm really hides that sh*t from us.

I'm reading a book, Change and Continuity in the 1984 Elections, and I have a question for you Lizards, if you don't mind.

Here's a quote from the book, p. 141: "In all of Roosevelt's elections, and in every postwar election through 1976, Jews strongly supported the Democratic presdental canddate. In 1980 a substantal minority of Jews voted for John Anderson, depriving Jimmy Carter of an absolute majority of Jewsh votes, but Carter still receved a plurality of the Jewish vote."

Note: 71 percent of Jews voted for Carter in 1976.

My question: Was the thought of voting for a Republican so repugnant that Jews chose to vote for Anderson because they couldn't support Carter? (I'm trying to understand the Jewish vote.)

I'm glad to see Fox covering this. This needs exposure.

re: #26 hermeneutics

When you figure out the American Jewish vote, then try to figure out why so many Israelis have believed that peace with Paleostinians was possible. I mean that in a sad way.

I can take a stab at it and point to the fact that Jews have a tendency to identify with the underdog. I don't know enough about the Torah to determine its effects on the Jewish psyche, but I'm sure the idea of justice and fairness is an enduring theme. Another factor is the centuries of marginalization and oppression meted out to Jews has forged an identity that is not quickly shed. Then there's the story of the Jewish class with their schoolteacher out for a field trip at the museum. One kid complained, saying his was thirsty. The teacher told him, "Suffer, it's good for your character."

World Trade Center is a great movie. I don't think any strong man can watch it without crying and having murderous thoughts though.

God remember with mercy the innocents who died that day and grant them forgiveness of all wrongs.

And for the guilty: Lousy bastards.

re: #32 Alouette

WTF? Maybe it was a "butterfly ballot" kind of thing when Jews voted for Pat Buchanan thinking they were really voting for Al Gore?

Did you ever read David Frum's "The Right Man: The Surprise Presidency of George W. Bush"? In it, he postulated why Jews dislike GW Bush so much: Frum contends that it was scary combination of being a frat boy-WASP-cowboy, which is radioactive for most Jewish people.

I'm wondering what the triggers were for Ronald Reagan, since he was much more Philosemitic than Carter (duh), or Anderson. Look what Wiki says about the latter:

"Initially, Anderson was amongst the most conservative members of the Republican caucus. In his second term as a Congressman, Anderson introduced a constitutional amendment that would have "recognize[d] the law and authority of Jesus Christ" over the United States"

No wonder he racked up the Jewish vote. Wait.

An excellent report called "The Al-Qaeda Media Nexus," by Daniel Kimmage may shed a lot of light on the Jihadis abroad and in the United States.

re: #62 Mich-again

A long tradition of church-state separation treats churches and synagogues as "untouchable." Remember the sanctuary movement in the 1980s ... and now? Churches harbored illegal immigrants in their basements and justified it by saying they were "sanctuaries." The feds avoided these churches. They sat outside and waited for the illegals to exit.

With this history, I would expect sedition in a mosque or church to be ignored.

Just saw this - the stunning oratory of Barack Obama. The gaffes just keep on mounting!

re: #23 vbspurs

Larry Johnston isn't a reliable source. While there are vocal Hillarists who will sit this one out or vote McCain, mainstream polling suggests it's not a large fraction of the electorate. Obama gained a few points in the polls after he clinched the nomination.

This election might be close, or it might be a blowout for Obama. Anyone who thinks McCain can win big and win easy, with the economy in trouble and the war not yet visibly and conclusively won, is dreaming.

Lincoln won big in 1864, but only because by the time of the election, Sherman had taken Atlanta and was marching through Georgia. People could see that Lincoln's strategy had succeeded and that victory was just a matter of time.

If we do get to that point in Iraq before November, we still won't be there with respect to Afghanistan. And if the war goes well, the fighting will die down and the war won't be on the front page. That leaves the economy. Bush's record on the economy for the first 7 years was decent. But this last year has seen several missteps and some external shocks. There won't be any recovery by November.

The Republicans are pedaling into a headwind this time around.

CAIR, MSA and all the rest could not possible ever consider that it just may be the immoderate actions of Islamists and so-called moderate Muslims and their no-holds-barred, in-your-face approach (and being in your face is part of the MSA strategy) that makes MOST people recoil from Islam.

Kaffirs can still think for themselves. And no matter how much the PC pressure and the cowardice exhibited in the face of CAIResque intimidation, people can still through the crap and reach their own conclusions about Islam. Lawsuits, threats or even "subtler" approaches, like handing out free Korans, will not put a balm on the obvious immoderacy of public Muslims. Is there a silent moderate Muslim majority in the U.S or Europe? Almost 7 years after 9/11, one must conclude: "No, not that I can see."

It's odd that the fact that RFK was assassinated at the hands of a Palestinian, Sirhan Sirhan, is rarely commented upon these days.

re: #121 Purple Prose

It's odd that the fact that RFK was assassinated at the hands of a Palestinian, Sirhan Sirhan, is rarely commented upon these days. Sirhan Sirhan himself said he acted because of RFK's support of Israel. RFK was a victim of Jihad. He made himself an enemy of the Ummah in 1948, as a reporter writing about "Palestine."

[Link: www.jcpa.org...]

Now that Obama no longer has the support of Hamas and, given comparisons of Obama to the young Kennedys, the Democrats might want to look around and reconsider who their friends and enemies are.

Roughly this was fairly recent news around here, but definitely worth repeating. It dovetailed nicely into the discussion of the hung jury (jury instruction confusion) regarding the "sudden jihadi" in Seattle, who killed one person and injured several others in a pre-planned attack against Jews.

That particular thread was a wonderful moby moment, btw. Many false flags showed up in the course of that rather lengthy thread.

Folks, there are probably many different ways to hunt turkeys, but I use the two that I've had the most success with over the past 40+ years.

1. Pick a likely spot. Camouflage yourself. Use your turkey call. Wait for a response. Call again. Wait for response. If you're calling well, that turkey will come running, all fanned out and ready for action. You provide the action.

2. Along about dark-thirty, begin listening. You'll hear them as they go to their roosting trees. They'll cluck and gobble and murmur as the congregate in a flock. Note the location of the roost tree. Return the next morning and wait for them to fly off the roost, taking as many as you feel the need too. Those with little sportsmanship will shoot them on the roost, but we need not encourage such actions here.

Listening is important.

Clearly you were well ahead of Daniel Pipes in your enlightenment about radical Islam, Charles. You were prescient and a "distant early warning system" of the extent of this struggle. Pipes was for a long time a "five percenter" who believed strongly that radicals within that religion were a tiny minority of the whole, and simply an isolated problem to be dealt with.

Even back to the day of the assassination of RFK I was suspicious of the motives of Sirhan Sirhan. One upon a time while in college I roomed briefly with a group of middle-easterners (Iraqi, Pakistani and Persian (aka Iranian), and it wasn't hard to see that there were some very hardwired differences even back then. I didn't see them for what they were, unfortunately.

The problem with napping on Shabbat is I am wired...up past my bed time. GA.

Neighbors described Khan — who immigrated to the U.S. from Saudi Arabia when he was 7 years old — as “friendly” and “reserved.” They said he launched his Web site while taking classes at Central Piedmont Community College and selling Cutco knives.

Abdullah Mahmud, an acquaintance of Khan’s who attends the same mosque, the Islamic Center of Greater Charlotte, defended Khan's viewpoints, saying his anger stems from the United States' foreign policy and occupation of Iraq.

I'm thinking that this mosque needs to be investigated, sooner rather than later.

This young man has been in THIS country since he was seven years old; which means what he believes about Islam was probably learned here in THIS country. I hope that the Islamic Center of Greater Charlotte (good Lord, is this in my South? God help us) has been thoroughly infiltrated and we will soon see it shut down and the jihadist POSs deported.

Heard an author on RFK murder. Sound tests now confirm 13 bullets shot in 5 seconds. The fatal bullets were fired from the side to his temple and under arm within 5 inches. Sirhan was several feet away and in front of him - they believe they found all of Sirhan's bullets in other people, and in the walls. The venue guard who was in the position to kill him, never has his gun confiscated...later he claim that he had sold it 3 months before the murder - turns out it was 3 months after the murder - bullets too deformed for ballistics - according to reports.

Evidence point to Sirhan having been programmed - flat affect - no memory of the event.

The website of Mr. Kahn (using NYT and British style here) has been reported on in the media before and apparently been on the radar screen of the FBI for a while. It could easily be legally shut down on a number of grounds that trump the First Amendment. I think it unlikely that political correctness has hamstrung the FBI on this either. This is REAL LIVE jihadi website that generates REAL intelligence. It and Mr. Kahn are being carefully monitored. Thank Allah that Muslims are always overconfident and overplaying their hand: despite Mr. Kahn knowing he is being watched closely, he has probably continued to let snippets get through that are useful intelligence. For example, the snuff videos he posts probably have useful digital clues about who is making and distributing the digital clips.

The shocking thing about the story is that there are "mixed emotions" about his site. I hope that those who raise support for this absolutely over-the-top site are being added to the FBI files as "people of interest" if they are already not there.

True. The best beer I have ever had - I made it. I have also made some pretty bad stuff tho.

RFK saw that the conflict in the Levant was about Jihad in 1948. Even now, the Israeli/Palestinian question is almost never put into such a context, despite the conquest/election of Gaza by Hamas. That is why "land for peace" will never work. It's about Jihad and Dar-al-Islam, stupid.

The die has long since been cast; the fight will take place. The Jews with their backs to the sea, fighting for their very homes, with 101 percent morale, will accept no compromise. On the other hand, the Arabs say:

Religious Crusade

"We shall bring Moslem brigades from Pakistan, we shall lead a religious crusade for all loyal followers of Mohammed, we shall crush forever the invader. Whether it takes three months, three years, or 30, we will carry on the fight. Palestine will be Arab. We shall accept no compromise."

No, no. I'm a naturalised American citizen from the Great State of Florida. Look any no-fault State is great, okay? ;)

The Farkers might have something to say about Florida, though...

John McCain: 'ABBA fan'

That's what we're learning today at the candidate's new campaign blog, The McCain Report.

Ruh roh, is that bad?

/catchy pop, but you won't find it on my iPod, not that I even own an iPod

BTW, if anyone's interested, song_and_dance_man got off on an Intelligent Design tangent whilst on the Tommy Emmanuel thread, called Charles out, and simply wouldn't back off. (Sigh)

227...

That's thinking like the incumbent Party, trying to draw a line in the political sand.

No, thats thinking that in a two-party system, each party (in this case, the party's leaders) must somehow demonstrate different policies, priorities, and vision. If not, whats the point? BTW, there are obvious differences between what the Republican base wants, and what a Marxist like Obama intends to deliver. That said, a conservative candidate could easily illustrate such differences on a whole host of issues. Unfortunately, McCain is not a conservative. And if the McCain strategy hinges on picking up "independents" to offset the loss of conservative Republicans, he is already doomed.

re: #186 vbspurs

Ah, gotcha. I thought you might be French (PSG). I'm Nantes, BTW.

...Now I'm curious, why does PSG lead you to the French conclusion. (Is it a language quirk, for example?)

/Which would be funny, in that I keep promising myself to learn enough French to be able to pronounce the words properly.

SaDM got the stick?

Poor little Samir:

up at Samir’s house like I promised. It was a pretty disappointing experience considering he is a Jihadist wannabe.I rang the doorbell and waited for a few minutes. After a while, I rang it again. Finally, an older guy dressed in a gray gown answered the door. I asked him if Samir Khan was there and he said; “No. Please get off my property and do not come here again.” I answered that I would get off his property and asked if I could speak with him about something else, but he shut the door in my face. It is amusing that Samir hides behind his daddy.

I hate ID threads, but enjoy an intelligent design. I think Jennifer Love-Hewitt was intelligently designed. And I have hope for the Raptor.

re: #189 gop_patriot

I'm thinking that this mosque needs to be investigated, sooner rather than later.

This young man has been in THIS country since he was seven years old; which means what he believes about Islam was probably learned here in THIS country. I hope that the Islamic Center of Greater Charlotte (good Lord, is this in my South? God help us) has been thoroughly infiltrated and we will soon see it shut down and the jihadist POSs deported.

Agree, gop. And then there was the Texas principal reassigned (not fired) for requiring students to attend CAIR presentation on Islam! Take you pick of links here.

Fun coffee yesterday, G. But we forgot to talk about Ghost Hunters!

His account's listed as "Blocked", so I guess he's earned himself a trip to the corner. At minimum.

re: #236 jcm

See, the debate between those who believe in Intelligent Design and those who don't is one debate I refuse to participate in. That said, those good Lizards here on both sides of that issue are not here for that...but to fight the Islamofascists.

No worries regarding Fark. It's just that they've noticed such a disproportionate amount of silliness emanating from the Sunshine State they created a special "Florida" tag for their stories.

I'm firmly on the ID side in my beliefs, but I'm also trained in the sciences.

I've posted a few times on the need the respect the gulf between the two realms and to tread lightly in the area.

Ironic, isn't it, that so many fear the "Religious Right"? But what do we find when the light is shone upon Obama's (former) church? How many more are similiar in their teachings and lectures that have yet to be exposed? How many as-yet-to-be exposed mosques preach anti-US and anti-Western hate? There really is a cultural civil war in this upside down world.

The cult in which I was raised got a lot of grief for it's lack of patriotism during WWII. Ironically, they were among the first to go to Herr Hitler's concentration camps (1933).

Not defending it. Just commenting.

Florida is a strange but amusing State. Everything weird, kinky, eccentric, stupid, and just plain hilarious happens here.

Case in point, the Cuban version of The Matrix. "Pa' piso!" Hehe. I love this place.

Read the politically charged threads and you'll realize you're uncomfortable close to the truth. I lurk in the Photoshop threads, and others where I sense the mockery factor is high.
