Death for Apostasy Advocated in Lansing, Michigan

Thu, Jul 6, 2006 at 8:23:41 am PDT

In Wednesday’s letters to the editor of the Lansing State Journal, a note from the Dark Ages. (Hat tip: Jihad Watch.)

Islam or death

I read Le Roy Barnett’s letter (“Muslims, speak up,” June 26) about Muslims’ opinion on Abdul Rahman’s conversion to Christianity.

Islam is not only a religion, it is a complete way of life. Islam guides Muslims from birth to grave. The Quran and prophet Muhammad’s words and practical application of Quran in life cannot be changed.

Islam is a guide for humanity, for all times, until the day of judgment. It is forbidden in Islam to convert to any other religion. The penalty is death. There is no disagreement about it.

Islam is being embraced by people of other faiths all the time. They should know they can embrace Islam, but cannot get out. This rule is not made by Muslims; it is the supreme law of God.

Please do not ask us Muslims to pick some rules and disregard other rules. Muslims are supposed to embrace Islam in its totality.

Nazra Quraishi
East Lansing

UPDATE at 7/6/06 1:17:16 pm:

It seems that Nazra Quraishi teaches kindergarten at an Islamic Sunday school: The Islamic Society of Greater Lansing - Sunday School. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)

A hundred books came out this year denouncing Christianity. Many were bestsellers and got great coverage in the MSM. Many of these books were written, edited, published, publicized and sold by nominal Christians -- individuals born to Christian parents, and/or baptized, or whatever.

Wonder why they're not scared of being beheaded. Could it be because ... all religions are not alike? Nawww...

I have been boycotting the book industry because of its anti-Christianity, which in my mind is exactly the same as its dhimmified cowardice.

Go to libraries. It's free.

This is the one advantage with have with this enemy: they so believe in their cause that they are loathe to dissemble about what that cause means and what it entails.

My question is this, though: we, as a liberal democracy, believe in freedom of religion. We also believe in tolerance of others' religious views. On what grounds, therefore, can we convince a majority of Americans that Islam is dangerous? Doesn't accepting that this particular religion is beyond the pale mean at the very least a partial repudiation of our liberal values?

This is what I mean when I say that one could not hope to design an enemy more ideologically challenging than radical Islam: we lack the ideological tools to resist it, our deepest beliefs cry out against condemning it.

Sooo, about all these "moderate" muslims I'm always reading about here - how do they reconcile with this absolutism of islam? Is "moderate" a muslim codeword for taqqiyah? What they are speaks so loudly I can't hear what the dhimmi supporters of "moderate" islam are saying.

16 Hhar  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 6:31:24am

What does N Quraishi know! This is ignorance of Islam! Islam says there shall be no compulsion in Religion! Compulsion is forbidden except where mandated by Islamic Law, and it is Islamic Law, NOT Islam, that...ummm...wait...hold it...


dang.


WELL ANYWAYS, Nobody kills people for apostasy any more! They just TRY to.


and sometimes succeed...but ummm...

Anyway they can't do it until the caliphate is restored, and nobody wants that!

Except the people who do...ummm...

So I guess this article about being gay and Muslim will go over quite well too?

Imaan's members feel like they are targets of both a wider society that discriminates against Muslims, and a Muslim community that sees homosexuality as a Western disease.

"Now we're dealing with Islamaphobia within the gay community, and Muslims who say gays can't be Muslims," Ubaid said.

Despite discrimination, Ubaid has found away to forge his own path and has reconciled his attraction to men with his love of Islam.

36 BH  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 6:38:32am

Islam is not only a religion, it is a complete way of life.

Islam is not only a religion, it is a complete way of life. Islam guides Muslims from birth to grave.

Walking my dog yesterday in a different part of the neighborhood, I paused to brush an insect from my leg and the wind gusted my skirt a little higher than was decent. Unfortunately, I had paused in front of a house where the homeowner witnessed this "transgression".

Turns out the homeowner is a muslim and he charged out of his garage and yelled at me, red-faced, indignant and at the top of his lungs while his hag-in-a-bag watched from the slit in the closed blinds.

I just stared at him, smiled, turned and bent over to lazily pick up my dog's deposit and went on my way.

He was livid. I've never seen anyone purple before.

muslims are locked in hell on earth and I don't feel sorry for them one little bit.

Pervez Musharraf almost nuked India

The Pakistani army, led by General Pervez Musharraf, had moved nuclear warheads during the Kargil war so that they could be used against India, exiled former prime minister Nawaz Sharif has claimed in his official biography.

America's New Strategic Partner?

Over the last year, the U.S. and Indian governments struck a deal that recognizes India as a nuclear weapons power. India could in time become a valuable security partner. So despite the deal's flaws and the uncertainties surrounding its implementation, Washington should move forward with it.

And no one has a problem with all this embracing as long as it's done in an Islamic country.

The moment you choose to live or remain in a non-Islamic country is the moment you agree to live by non-Islamic rules.

What is that so hard to understand?

KevinV,

As long as we hold onto freedom of speech, freedom of religion will work itself out. I have to believe that the idea of killing apostates is repugnant enough to most humans on a fundamental level. We just need to be able to discuss it and its ramifications in the marketplace of ideas for true freedom of religion and thought freedom to win out.

49 Fjordman  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 6:42:07am

I would still strongly recommend this book, for those of you who haven't read it:

Once again, I say that a religion that is addicted to bloodshed and oppression enjoys no First Amendment protections.

The FedGov needs to shut down all mosques and deport all foreign mullahs/imams immediately.

If you can't think these thoughts with me, then you are cutting your own throats.

My proof? The cities of Bethlehem and Nazareth and the country of Lebanon -- once Christian majority -- are now Muslim majority.

France and England -- once at least nominally Christian -- are being Dhimmified at an alarming rate.

This is a war: We either fight to win -- or we are (de facto) raising the white flag of surrrender.

Islam is a cult just like some Christian cults. If you were ever in a cult and then tried to leave it you would know of what I write.

Someone can get caught up in a cult and not know they are. Experiance speaks. I'm not an uneducated person, I have served in the military and have a degree. Once out it takes many years to get back to reality. Some never get it out of them. Some teachings are difficult to forget. Family members treat you as dead. The isolation is tough and the harrassment is far reaching and lasts a lifetime.

Islam is an especially dangerous cult. It comes out of a stone age mindset where murder for those that dissent is accepted and expected. God help the liberals that don't understand.

71 bianchi_roadie  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 6:48:02am

Whoops, someone at CAIR will probably tell Nazra to put a cork in it. His letter shows that all "true" muslims would be against the UN Declaration of Human Rights:

Article 18.

Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.

About gays and Islam-

when Mohammad threw in 27 smooth young boys as beautiful as pearls to go with the 72 virgins (and, despite the talk about raisins, I give Mo credit for knowing you can get a lot more murder out of people for sex than for shriveled grapes) I'm pretty sure he was tossing a bone, as it were, to some of his followers of alternative sexual orientation.


Plus, I hear Taliban Kandahar was famous for grown men buggering teenaged boys.

We can have the America that the founders envisioned, and that most of us grew up with, or we can have a muslim population dwelling within our borders. We cannot have both. As long as they are here they will push relentlessly for concession after concession to accomodate their "complete way of life". They will make no concession to ours. Every concession that we make diminishes our liberty, and security, and strengthens their position. It is jihad through "peaceful means" nothing less.
Their openly stated goal is to undo our system and they will use our constitutionally guaranteed freedoms to undermine and destroy us. And because of the equal protection clause the inconveniences and restrictions and continued diminishment of privacy and freedom must be visited on all Americans, not just the ones who would destroy us.
Because of the muslim population we need a department of homeland security. Because of the muslim population we need the NSA monitoring programs. Because of the muslim population we need the swift program. Because of the muslim population we need airport screening. Because of the muslim population we have the FBI working overtime.
It's fine for us to vent, to blow off steam and say, "deport the bastards", but you and I both know it isn't going to happen. It can not happen without a radical undoing of our system of laws. Do you see any politician willing to stand up and say, "Enough"? Can you envision any politician with the balls to say even, "No more muslim immigration to the US, No more student visas to muslim countries, no more travel to the US from muslim countries?" I sure don't. GRRR. Anyway, end of rant. Good morning Lizardoids.

Within Islamic countries, those rules reign. We aren't there yet. We still have a voice.

The gay Muslim is a good story because it is a division of ideas within the Islamic community. If *this* Islamic tradition isn't valid, maybe *that* one isn't either. One new idea breeds 100 more.

Americans are a pretty reasonable and understanding group of people, but our patience will eventually run out.

And then we’ll see who is afraid of whom.

When the day comes, (and I believe that day is not far off) when Mosques are in flames, Muslims are being deported, beaten and chased down and killed in the streets, when the Western world has had its belly full of Muslim bile, hate and threats, when no sympathy exists for innocent Muslims who refused to denounce groups like MPACUK and CAIR, who refused to stand up and denounce violent and threatening Muslims, when the civilized world recognizes and calls Islam what it really is – a death cult and evil – sane, civil, peace loving – God fearing people - the world over, will look back at incidents and practices like this, and say: “They’ve brought this on themselves!”


I’m not advocating this, only predicting it based on what I see (when you hear little old Irish ladies in Boston – never friendly to anything violent or bloody - comparing Muslims to Nazis - you know there’s a cultural mind shift is taking place.

Lord help the Muslims, if the little old lady brigade get their hand on ‘em.

Pushed too far

A few days ago, I was running a cool-down lap after a speed workout at the track -- part of my marathon training program -- when several Army ROTC guys arrived for a workout. After some push-ups, sit-ups and stretches, they began circling the track as well. I finished up my cool-down and began to stretch while they kept on with their two-mile run, and I witnessed something I had only seen in exaggerated caricatures in military movies.

Apparently, these guys were supposed to complete two miles within an allotted time, but one of them was falling just a little bit behind pace. The commanding officer started running right behind him, screaming at him to speed up. Some of the choice motivating statements included: "When you're on the battlefield, you won't have the luxury of moseying in-between buildings while bombs go off around you!" "Terrorists and insurgents love slow people like you! You give them an easy target!"
---
Surely, there are healthier approaches for pushing someone to the limit -- and for instilling grit and toughness. I realize this questionable tactic might be designed to build "character" and "strength," but [but, BUT!] does someone's health, well-being and humanity have to be put on the line in order to achieve these results? It's fortunate that "don't ask, don't tell" will forever keep me ignorant of how bad this form of hazing (dare I say, "mild torture?") can get.

I'll just never understand how degrading someone might make him stronger, how battering someone makes her tougher. From my vantage point, it's psychological abuse that desensitizes people from human relationships -- and diminishes, rather than enriches, society.

Your quote -

to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance.

I'm a bit troubled by the 'manifest' word and it being used in conjunction with 'practice'; esp. if the 'practices' of islam legitimately include honor killings, taquiyya, pedophilia, etc.

It's fine for us to vent, to blow off steam and say, "deport the bastards", but you and I both know it isn't going to happen. It can not happen without a radical undoing of our system of laws. Do you see any politician willing to stand up and say, "Enough"? Can you envision any politician with the balls to say even, "No more muslim immigration to the US, No more student visas to muslim countries, no more travel to the US from muslim countries?" I sure don't. GRRR. Anyway, end of rant. Good morning Lizardoids

I surely don't see it happening under our current President, who has been captured on film holding hands (holding HANDS!) with the leader of the country that supplied 19 of the 22 9-11 hijackers.

One of GWB's State Department's reactions to 9-11 was to DOUBLE this past year the number of STUDENT VISAS to Saudis to come study in this country.

President Bush is part of the problem we have of dangerously INCREASING the Muslim (and Mexican) presence in this country.

From mark steyn a few months ago:

“In a more culturally confident age, the British in India were faced with the practice of `suttee’ - the tradition of burning widows on the funeral pyres of their husbands. Gen. Sir Charles Napier was impeccably multicultural: `You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: When men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks, and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.’”

Relocate Israel

I read with interest William E. Molnar's "Arabs still can't accept Israel's existence" (Forum, April 3). It has all the old arguments of being in favor of the state of Israel.

It is still a racist state and existing on the might of the U.S. government.

Palestine was not a barren land where the Jews of Europe went to live with British protection. Palestinians already were living there.

It is the saddest part of the history of white imperialism that created and sustains the state of Israel.

There will be no peace in this century and beyond if there is not a solution to the Palestine problem. U.S. security depends on it, too. The state of Israel and what it is doing in the West Bank are barbaric.

Maybe we should think about a state of Israel in some part of the United States.

Western Muslims must develop a critical discourse that rejects victimhood, and that criticises radical or literal readings of religious teachings. It is also important not to conflate or confuse religion with separate debates: social problems are not religious problems and have nothing to do with Islam as such.

Isn't that a problem? Asking Muslims to "not believe" or criticize the true Quran? What's the point of the whole cult religion then?

Unfortunately, Christianity was just as violently coercive as Islam was back in the early days of Islam.

When the Holy Roman Empire, for example, converted the Germanic tribes, villagers were given the choice between baptism and decapitation.

The obvious difference is that European Christianity has mellowed out, while Islam has not changed at all - Christian weakness in Europe leaves it helpless in the face of the Islamic resurgence.

But this is nothing new- the weakness of Christianity in the Old World left it unable to deal with Communism and Nazism, too.

Christianity's main strength is in the New World.

Unfortunately, Christianity was just as violently coercive as Islam was back in the early days of Islam.

Man is violent. Regardless of what men may have done in the name of Christianity, the acts are not supported by the teachings of Jesus.

Whether any man accepts the Bible or the Qu'ran as Holy Writ, the differences in the teachings of the faith are clear and unequivocable. Contrast the lives of Christ and Mohammed.

Christ was rejected and went to the cross. Mohammed was rejected and went to another city (Medina) where he raised an army and conquered those who rejected him (Mecca).

Christ was tempted and rejected the temptation of wordly power. Mohammed began preaching a much softer message than the one he eventually espoused. He was frustrated by his lack of success and turned to armed force.

Islam cannot "mellow" without rejecting the example of Mohammed. Mohammed’s life was lived as the antithesis of Jesus’s. I’ll leave the rest of the “antis” to others.

My question is this, though: we, as a liberal democracy, believe in freedom of religion. We also believe in tolerance of others' religious views. On what grounds, therefore, can we convince a majority of Americans that Islam is dangerous? Doesn't accepting that this particular religion is beyond the pale mean at the very least a partial repudiation of our liberal values?

That freedom does not extend to all religious practices and anti-social cults. For example, many satanists believe in various forms of animal sacrifice. Such behavior is not tolerated and is not covered under the concept of freedom of religion, and any religion that advocates such also is not tolerated.

Likewise, radical Islam (not going to get into how much of Islam falls into that category) appears to advocate sacrifice of Muslims and murder of infidels. Such behavior is not tolerated and is not covered under the concept of freedom of religion, and any religion that advocates such also should not be tolerated.

Education (not the liberal indoctrination that passes for education in LLL land) is the key to waking up Americans to these sad realities...

Interesting article (gay and Muslim).

Unfortunately, a huge majority of followers in Islam would kill him just for acknowledging his homosexuality, let alone practicing it. And he knows it.

He thinks he can balance the two with ‘tolerance’.

Not likely in my opinion – Imam’s aren’t too 'tolerant' of gay sex. Or much else.

BTW: To the gays on the left, anything short of a white wedding in St. Patrick’s is considered discriminating yet ‘hanging fags’ from lamp posts in Iran or dropping brick walls on gays in Islamic countries is pretty much ignored. I believe it’s called ‘useful idiots’?

The mention of self-identified gay Muslims:

Imaan's members feel like they are targets of both a wider society that discriminates against Muslims, and a Muslim community that sees homosexuality as a Western disease.

"Now we're dealing with Islamaphobia within the gay community, and Muslims who say gays can't be Muslims," Ubaid said.

...reminds me to recommend the fascinating documentary Trembling Before G-d, which looks at the difficult lives of Jewish homosexuals in the Orthodox and Hassidic communities.

In bringing it up, I don't mean to imply a comparison between the worlds of Islam and Orthodox Judaism; however, the documentary does offer some insights that may be generally applicable. Most importantly, it looks at the question, "why do these people choose to continue identifying with a highly conservative faith community that ostracizes them?"

201 grandma  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 8:36:05am

I couldn’t manage to get the link to work, however, I am reassured that the Lansing State Journal had the good sense to publish that letter. Our government does not need to get into the business of discrediting Islam; Islam is doing just fine all by itself and that letter proves it.

Our Almighty Creator gave mankind something that he gave no other of his living creations: a mind, the ability to choose between good and evil, and a spirit with which to build a relationship with Him. Allah, it appears, does not reflect the true identity of that Almighty Creator, and is therefore not the true god. Allah’s idea of his kingdom is one on Earth, and death and destruction are his promises. All one has to do is submit to Allah’s religion, obey all those rules, fear for one’s life in this world and the next, and force it upon every other person on Earth. In other words, sell your soul to Allah.

For those of us who still can use our minds, we don’t need a religion, Allah’s or otherwise, to tell us what to do. We don’t need a government to fix it. It is up to each one of us as individuals to make the correct choices. We are only here for several decades and are a very impatient species. We want everything fixed in this world, in our lifetimes, according to our agenda, by someone else, and expect the Almighty to cooperate. The burden falls upon mankind to correct evil. It has been almost five years since 9/11. Many of us have used our minds productively to learn more about the evil that is Imperialistic Islamist Expansionism. I for one was rather nonchalant before then, but not anymore. So I am a force of just one who Allah ain’t gonna get. Each individual person is the key to success.

So I thank this letter writer for publishing yet some more information so that those like me, who would resist, can be more resolved in our efforts. I think that the “ball is now in Allah’s court”. As much as Allah’s hordes spew out their hateful intentions of death and destruction, they haven’t managed any events in the past five years to equal their past “glory”. But they’ve given us five years to figure out their filthy agenda. No matter what they accomplish next, they are already damned if they do and damned if they don’t. Exactly how it should be.

Sorry for the long comment. Thanks for listening to Grandma on this cool and rainy SC afternoon, and have a nice day.

Quote from his link:

On July 1, around 25 Imaan members rode atop a float in the EuroPride 06 parade in London. With banners reading "Gay Muslims unveiled" and flags of the United Kingdom and from across the Islamic world, they waved cheerfully at the crowd.

While they didn't hide themselves in rainbow burkhas as they did the previous year, most were still reluctant to give their names or be photographed for fear of reprisals.

60 times in the quran it tells the believers of islam, to "kill the unbelievers and infidels".

It also says to the believers of islam, "deceive them, pretend you are their friends, until the sacred years of peace are over, then, kill the unbelievers wherever they are."

Based on the actions of those who believe in islam, beheadings, cutting off tongues, noses, beating, torturing, and murdering their woman and children, treating their woman worse than dogs, teaching their children from the earliest age, to hate and kill Israeli's and Americans, bombings of other muslims, and anyone who doesn't "conform to allah", I can increase the list, add infinitum.

The reason why the left so identifies with Islam and kisses up to them is they both are cults. Islam is an evil cult whose members must die if they want to leave.

The left is a cult who issues "just kidding" threats of death to those who disagree. Remember Alec Baldwin and his 'joke' about shooting Henry Hyde and family? I have never heard so many wishes for death to conservatives as I have in the last few years. The latest was that idiot in NY who said Schummer would put a bullet between the president's eyes. (Did the SS ever follow that threat up?)

As much as the left and Islam call Bush Hitler, it is they who walk in lockstep.

You can follow your f*cking religion all you want up to the point where it infringes on someone else's rights, especially their right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." That it is where it stops. Cold.

If you want to try to change the rules, then pick up a gun, put on a uniform, and take on the U.S. Armed Forces. If you prefer to take the terrorist route, the day will come when armed American citizens will have had enough and will administer their own justice.

Good question. Americans, and the entire West for that matter, must be shown that life is the standard of value -- life on this earth. That means that we must promote a society founded in reason, individualism, rights, justice, benevolence, science, capitalism, freedom, moral responsibility, and such Enlightenment values. Anything that is antithetical to life is out. We must categorically reject collectivism, mysticism, authoritarianism, substituting emotionalism for reason, moral relativism or skepticism, and the glorification of the base and denegrating, and we must know why they are anti-life. We must become the full, uncompromised realization of the civilization our Founding Fathers seeded. We must be the living embodiment of the best that man can be, and we must know why it is right to be the best and proclaim it proudly.

Same idiot wrote this

read with interest William E. Molnar's "Arabs still can't accept Israel's existence" (Forum, April 3). It has all the old arguments of being in favor of the state of Israel.

It is still a racist state and existing on the might of the U.S. government.

Palestine was not a barren land where the Jews of Europe went to live with British protection. Palestinians already were living there.

It is the saddest part of the history of white imperialism that created and sustains the state of Israel.

There will be no peace in this century and beyond if there is not a solution to the Palestine problem. U.S. security depends on it, too. The state of Israel and what it is doing in the West Bank are barbaric.

Maybe we should think about a state of Israel in some part of the United States.

The latest was that idiot in NY who said Schummer would put a bullet between the president's eyes.

The "idiot" who said that, was obviously Chuck Schummer, or the NY Comptroller never would have introduced him that way!

Schummer obviously made that exact statement to the NY Comtroler in their conversations, before the speech that Shmuck Schummer was to give.

The fact that Shmuck Schummer, in no way shape or form, denounced the introduction, he never once said it was out of line, or even wrong, before he made his speech, is proof that Schummer told the NY Comptroler those words.

The fact that they both made some kind of insincere, lame "denouncment" of the comments, hours after the speech, meant absolutly nothing.

I hope the GOP can get ahold of the actual recording of that introduction, and use it in the fall campaign commercials, and also in 2008.

Of course, the same cannot be said for the British people and their government, in the UK, Muslims are under siege, liable to be arrested, raided and even shot at for no reason except that we “could potentially be a terrorist”. It could be our beard, it could be our clothes or it could even be the colour of our skin. It is enough nowadays, as the young Brazilian Mr Menezes learnt, just to look like a Muslim to be shot by the police, “just in case” you were a suicide bomber!

Moreover British politicians have made abundantly clear that they are “101%” behind the persecution of the Muslims and that we should just accept it! That they will not tolerate any talk of Islam or Shari’ah, “no negotiations with the implementation of Shari’ah” Mr Clarke said, an “evil ideology” Mr Blair called it.

Furthermore, globally they are engaged in a vicious war against Muslims, one where the “rules have changed”, where extraordinary renditions, torture, rape, humiliation and murder are a necessary step to deal with a threat that has “never been seen before”; where Tony Blair must close his eyes to the atrocities by UK and US soldiers in order to prevent this “evil ideology” taking root in the hearts and minds of the Muslims.

It is enough to hear one example of Bush and Blair’s war in Iraq, let us hear about the brutal murder of innocent families by US troops in Mahmudiyah; this is the account of their neighbour,

My lesson-o'-the-day from all this --- if you're gonna write highly-charged letters to the editors of newspapers who also post said letters on their website, never, never sign your real name.

They should know they can embrace Islam, but cannot get out.

In my neck of the woods, that's called a death trap.

Sound more like a gang. Islamic mafia?

didn't you mean "piss be upon him"?

Lord help the Muslims, if the little old lady brigade get their hand on ‘em.

It appears that Nazra Quraishi is associated with the Islamic Center of Greater Lansing. Oh, happens to be a teacher of the Kindergarten Sunday school class.

Shouldn't that be "a teacher of the Kindergarten Sunday Friday school class"?

Well, where the hell have YOU been? How are Soccer and Rugby?

Ok, many of you already know the trials and tribulations we've had with the Saudi family that used to live next door. A new Saudi family moved in a few months ago and actually seem quite nice - the kids go out of their way to try to be friends with Molly the Beagle (that's a one way street - she can't stand them). The Dad has been very clear that he wants the kids to become 'americanized'. So I'm all for it, right?

One problemo. The wife/mom. Covers even INSIDE the house.

I dunno, just sayin'.

Is this really happening in America?

Can I be afraid of people with this mindset now? Or must I continue to understand the root causes of their anger, which turns out to be the Western European male dominance of society. (yikes)

251 Enraged_Badger  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 11:01:25am

Don't the moonbats GET it? Completely bloody clear statement about the violent cultish nature of Islam ('there is not compulsion in Islam', right?). Statements like this and ones about how 'decadent the West is and it must embrace Islamic values or die'..when will 'It's the Jihad, stupid' be understood?

storagemanager 7/6/2006 10:53AM PDT
From article linked : "Moreover British politicians have made abundantly clear that they are “101%” behind the persecution of the Muslims and that we should just accept it! That they will not tolerate any talk of Islam or Shari’ah, “no negotiations with the implementation of Shari’ah” Mr Clarke said, an “evil ideology” Mr Blair called it."

I actually could think of some choicer words. Probably not very printable in general newspapers...

Agreed, and me too, although I consider myself more classical liberal than conservative.

I believe in freedom. Many good people died for that ideal. And there are those in the world who seek to take it away. To seek to prevent that from happening is not acting in service to Halliburton.

I can't believe that the gays on the left fail to see that, although they will get the wall dropped on them as soon as they finish off the Jews. Maybe concurrently.

251-enraged_badger- Yeah, Dennis Prager had some effete kid on and He said that the Muslims want to preserve their culture and that is why they are agitated. Prager said the story I just read was about Muslims killng those watching a soccer match. They murdered two people when spraying the room with machine gun fire...

Effete kid said, "No they didn't."

It is alwways the Wests fault and W's fault and the USA's fault that the whiners are upset. These useful idiots will have to be dealt with as they are going to get us and our families killed.

255 OLDPUPPYMAX  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 11:37:54am

Islam is not a religion, it is a disease--a worldwide pestilence. And civilized people everywhere are faced with the imperative of curing or killing one billion practicing victims of its heinous lust for blood, dominion and servile devotion.

256 republic  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 11:50:19am

So, this kook believes that muslims should be allowed to kill, at will, and the rest of the world is just supposed to sit back, and do nothing!

That is exactly what his "quran" demands that the followers of islam do, at least 60 times!

Deceive, then kill, deceive, then kill, deceive, then kill.

Unreal!

What's even more bizare, is the people who believe that islam is a rop!

"Hey, that person just cut that other persons head off!"

"Yes, they were just following the teachings of muhamad, just look the other way, it is all being done in the name of "peace", or so they say."

257 Infidel and Proud  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 11:54:35am

OT: Arrogance aims to create a 'greater Israel' in Middle East

Speaker of Iraq's National Assembly Mahmoud al-Mashadani in a meeting with the representative of the Jurisprudence in Khorasan, Ayatollah Abbas Vaez Tabassi, here Thursday said that the major goal of the arrogance in occupying Iraq is to create a 'great Israel' in the region...

Indonesia quits Zionist regime game

Indonesia has pulled out of its fed cup tennis tie with the Zionist regime later this month in protest over the regime's military crimes in the Gaza Strip, the Foreign Ministry said Thursday.

I used the headlines thought up in the twisted minds of the Iranian reporters...

Taqqiya did you say.

In an article in the Independent, Taqqiya master Tariq Ramadan, advises muslims in the West, "Western Muslims must develop a critical discourse that rejects victimhood, and that criticises radical or literal readings of religious teachings.".

[Link: comment.independent.co.uk...]

As the writer states, "Please do not ask us Muslims to pick some rules and disregard other rules. Muslims are supposed to embrace Islam in its totality".

EXACTLY. That means Jihad, be-headings etc. It is naive and futile to expect anything else.

It seems that Nazra Quraishi teaches kindergarten


Hey, what a coincidence, my old kindergarten teacher (Mrs. Heenan - I wonder if she's still alive) used to encourage us kids to murder infidels too! Didn't yours?

263 mfarmer1  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 1:04:42pm

No joke, I just SPOKE to her! I asked her directly: "If an American citizen who is a Muslim changes or renounces his or her faith, you believe this person should be executed, even here in America?"

Her answer: "Yes, that it correct." And get this, she FUC**ING GIGGLED when she answered! I am not making this up!

There you have it folks! Give her a ring, her number is linked to the update given by Charles.

There has to be some law against this, there's just gotta be some way to get her out of here. Oh, and yes, trust me by the accent I heard that this one is originally from some serious Islamic sh*t-hole.

264 tomilio  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 1:39:09pm

I just wrote this letter to the editor of the Lansing newspaper:

In response to Nazra Quraishi's letter "Islam or Death":

This is what mainstream Islam teaches its followers:

"It is forbidden in Islam to convert to any other religion. The penalty is death. There is no disagreement about it". Islam is being embraced by people of other faiths all the time. They should know they can embrace Islam, but cannot get out. This rule is not made by Muslims; it is the supreme law of God".

More citizens need to be aware that this is a widespread belief in Islam and not the rantings of one particular person in its faith. If these beliefs were not mainstream, why would the Islamic Center of Greater Lansing make Nazra Quraishi the teacher of the Kindergarten Sunday school class. Are these beliefs in line with the constitution and American values of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness? They seem more consistent with Osama Bin Laden.

265 Still Rolling  Thu, Jul 6, 2006 1:44:16pm

My letter just submitted to the Lansing State Journal:

Thank you to Ms. Nazra Quraishi of East Lansing, for writing so clearly that "Islam is a guide for humanity, for all times, until the day of judgment. It is forbidden in Islam to convert to any other religion. The penalty is death."

For too long, too many Americans have been willingly deceiving themselves about the nature of the threat we are facing, right here in our beloved homeland. Now, here it is. The enemy has so much contempt for us, and so little fear, that he is comfortable spitting on everything we hold dear. Life? Liberty? Pursuit of Happiness? Religious tolerance? Hah! Ms. Quraishi makes it clear that American rules do not apply in matters of the islamic faith: "Islam is being embraced by people of other faiths all the time. They should know they can embrace Islam, but cannot get out."

Oh, but you say, these people are ignorant but not dangerous? Funny, the same thing was said about a gang of drunken thugs who used to gather in Munich beer halls in the 1920s preaching another warped ideology of separatism and hate.

Is the Muslim world in any mood to have dialogue with the West?

The Muslim world, and their Western Left supporters, define "dialogue" to mean that we Americans must sit on our hands and keep our mouths shut while the Muslims harangue us about how awful we are.

The reason why the left so identifies with Islam and kisses up to them is they both are cults.

No. The reason why the Left has a sneaking admiration for Islam is that with the collapse of Communism, Islam is the only force out there that can take on the hated U.S. and Israel.

I've heard many Leftists speak nostalgically of the Cold War when "the USSR was a counterweight to U.S. imperialism." With the end of communism, the capitalist U.S. appeared triumphant and the world seemed to be going toward free markets and free trade. That stuck in the Left's collective craw. They never accepted it.

Islam is now doing things the Left could only dream of: attacking the hated Pentagon, attacking the hated centers of global capitalism like the World Trade Center, attempting to push the West out of the Third World. Those are the goals of the Islamists, and those were always the goals of the Leftists. They just disagree as to the methods to use.

FWIW, I agree, but I'n not sure how "sneaking" it is, after all "Islam means 'peace'", and we know how much leftists love peace.

The left doesn't have a sneaking admiration of Islam, but a glaring one. I agree with your reasons why, but my point (which was not very well made) was the left is indeed a cult. Those who dissent are mocked and ridiculed; they threaten conservatives with death (Alec Baldwin just posted on the Huffington Post a dream he has of killing the vice president) or shun their own who disagree.

In any cult there must be total and complete adherence to ALL tenets and principles espoused. Horror stories abound here in the gliterati of Hollywood of those blacklisted, never to work again, because they came out of the closet as a conservative, or were a liberal who didn't toe the party line.

The left's inability to tolerate differences in opinion goes right along with Islam. If the left ever gets into complete power here in the U.S., the natural outcome would be a totalitarian U.S.

Islam and the left were made for each other; they both crave power and demand obeisance. Both pontificate about peace and tolerance while they silence their opposition. Because, after all, it's for our own good.

One of the hallmarks of criminal gangs is the "rule," "Blood in, Blood Out." Islamism sounds just like this to me...
