Join the crowd, maple leafers.

It's a big crowd by now.

I can already hear the cries for "Let's cut and run !"

Oh brother.

It also refers to Canada’s “fanatic adherence to Christianity” as well as its purported attempts to “damage the Muslims” and its support for the “Christian Crusade” against al-Qaeda.

And of course, Canadian bacon.

In case you've never stopped in over at SITE Institute...

#3 in my best Homer Simpson voice...ummm, bacon.

Harper is in charge, he isnt a wuss. Canada wont cut and run. Im just surprised he wasnt first offered to convert. That wasnt very Islamic of AQ.

A day without Islam is like a day without subjugation, terror, and murder.

It worked for them in Spain, so why not Canada?

Et tu Liz Ard?

Welcome to another Canada bashing thread. :(

I was a Canadian basher until they elected Steve Harper. People need to realize that just not being Muslim is enough to make you a target. Doesnt matter if you hate the US, George Bush or Israel.

"Despite the differences between the Canadian foreign policy and its U.S. counterpart, and despite the hatred the Canadian people harbour towards the Americans -- their bad neighbours who cannot hold back their damage from them -- they agree with them regarding leading the Christian Crusade in Afghanistan and confronting al-Qaeda there," it says.

Not enough hatred, I guess.

despite the hatred the Canadian people harbour towards the Americans

Yes, those hateful, mean, vicious, impolite, seething Canadians... riiight.

Well, I suppose they could be referring to Canadian Muslims.

didn't that poll Charles posted the other day indicate that Al-Quaeda doesn't exist?

Unless Islamochemotheropy is applied you may well see a 911 (Canuck style).

I'm Canadian. I'm also an out of shape, middle-aged woman and I could kick this jerk's ass from here to the 7th century.

If only he was brave enough to do the fighting himself, one on one.

These Jihadi losers want to threatne us?

Fine.

Put on the skates, pick up the stick, grab a puck, and we'll meet you Muslim pussies out on the ice and show you what we think about your threats.

Now, now, it's probably just the rantings of some "mischievous 'youts'".

Once again, an Al Qaeda threat differs little from a KOS, DU or Firedoglake threat.

What most people see in Canada, unfortunately, is what the Chretien and Martin Liberal governments did to destroy our credibility both diplomatically and militarily. If you look past that recent history, however, you'll find a nation that is not going to be cowed by the threats of terrorists. Canada is not leaving Afstan, and we will not be intimidated by Al Qaeda, no matter how much our MSM wants us to.

Put on the skates, pick up the stick, grab a puck, and we'll meet you Muslim pussies out on the ice and show you what we think about your threats.

That may be meant as humor, but I think it should be fairly obvious that deep down Muslims are cowards. Suicide bombing sounds brave, until one realizes they are quite convinced they shall spend eternity in a whorehouse for it, and they usually target the most helpless and vulnerable. A Muslim terrorist will avoid a fair fight.

Let's see here - Canada doesn't have troops in Iraq, France is in chaos and they don't have troops in Iraq, the German PM is under fire and they don't have troops in Iraq - anyone else notice a pattern here?

You rock! I've got your back!

If we think of Islam as a disease then the options for dealing with it become very clear.

Immunization: Educate people about the true origins of Islam and the character of its so-called prophet.

Drug Therapy: Provide an alternative faith for Muslims through missionary activity. Anyone who assaults or kills a missionary will be subjected to sudden-lead therapy.

Surgery: Elimination of the Clergy and Jihadists through sudden-lead therapy.

Sanitation: Demolition of mosques and madrassas and disposal of Korans.

Quarantine: Physical isolation of Muslims from Human society until they convert to a sane religion or expire.

Also take a good look at who they send as suicide bombers. You don't see even one of those very vocal spokespeople out there playing splodeydope. Children, retarded, sons of financially desperate families --- or Iran using young boys drunk on some religious claptrap to clear minefields. In other words, those for whom they have no value in the first place.

Looking at the s**t holes you call the "land of Islam" I think I would quit praying for the help of allah for any reason.

I mean, looking at the state of the Ummah, or what ever you call the cess pools you live in, I don't think that allah favors ya'll very much. You'd get more satisfaction praying to a rock. Oh, excuse me, you already do that? Hmm, I hear nobody is yet praying to dung heaps, perhaps you can try that.

Is Spain doing anything anymore anywhere?

Well today, the silly leftists seem to be going to have a protest and march, starting at the US consulate, and ending at the moss park armory...

Making support of Israel a crime?

Any Canadian whose family came here 100 years ago or more is almost guaranteed to have some American roots or ties. Both of my father's grandmothers were American. I have American cousins.

I don't believe that most Canadians hate Americans. I do believe that the CBC and many Canadian media are anti-American and anti-Conservative-Canadian.

There's an "anti-war" rally being held in downtown Toronto today. I'm hoping Jack Layton will hold up a copy of The Post and say, "See? Al-Qaeda agrees with us!" Layton certainly doesn't take the word of the president of Afghanistan who personally came to Canada and asked us to stay in his country and help his people.

Here's what I've said since 9/11: "You'd better hope that our PM kisses George Bush's ass. We need the U.S. and we'd better not forget it."

AQ doesn't actually do anything that is useful to Human society. You should call a demolition firm and a scrap metal dealer for that job.

Canada’s “fanatic adherence to Christianity”

Hey, at least Al Qaeda has a sense of humour. I have lived in Canada all my life, & I cannot recall anybody ever accusing Canadians of religious fanaticism. Even religious Canadians tend to be very mild mannered about their faith. Nominally Catholic Quebec has one of the lowest rates of church attendance in the Western world.

Unless hockey is a religion?

Paranoid projection at work again.

Do they seriously think that Canadians covet the fly blown patch of dirt where they live? Somebody ought to send them a postcard.

*Aren't all leftist rallies called, "(blank) out of (blank) Now!" ? I guess it saves on the cost of printing signs.

Some don't get it.

CALGARY/A-M 700 CHQR - Bringing Canada's troops home from Afghanistan as soon as possible is the theme of demonstrations in Calgary and other major centres across the country Saturday. Local organizer, Calgary and District Labor Council President Peggy Askin, says Canada should no longer be involved in occupying Afghanistan. She says we've become involved in a "full combat mission" that needs to end. Askin says Canada should have an independent foreign policy and chides the federal government for getting involved in a military "adventure" with the U.S.

It's a shame that to many here, an independent foreign policy means doing the exact opposite of the USA. It's never occured to them that we do things because they're good ideas, not because we're lapdogs of the Americans.

And what Afghanistan has to do with labor, I'll never know.

This timing of this threat seems to coincide with today's demonstrations across Canada.

Karl Rove is indeed a genuis.

#42 Canadian Imperialist Running Dog

This is a very naive statement by AQ. We are neither religious fanatics nor cowards. We are small, cautious and blindly independent at times. But check your history AQ, when the fight is brought, we get pissy.

All reference to their god should be "Allah" like Abdul said...and not the God in Whom we trust...there is a difference!

Regarding all of these demonstration in Canada. Yes Canada does have it's share of young leftist. But there appears to be a disproportionate number of immigrants participating and often the most radical and vocal. And I am not talking about Chinese (which are quiet and lawbiding and apparently grateful to their adopted land). The lawlessness you can observe in immigrant areas of Vancouver and Montreal is troubling.

#34 Here's another idea to add to your list:

Gather up all the muuzzlimb children and give them an education free from imams and islamomisinformation. Then in one generation, the threat has petered out.
(They can be settled in the areas vacated by the Mexicans who have infiltrated the US.)

I have a solution. everytime we receive a threat from Al Q, or there is a terrorist attack anywhere in the world that is fomented by Islam, then we bomb 50 mosques during friday prayers, oops that should be friday hate fest, with google earth, gps and all that technology, it shouldn't hard to find all these buildings. plus a few MOAB bombs to clear out the odd poppy and marijuana plantation in afghanistan.

hey a guy can dream can't he.

the problem is that it would require a clear coherent unified strategy in the west which doesn't appear to be currently present.

Unfortunately, neither the NDP, or Liberals really support the troops, they never have, and never will, despite any platitudes they spew. It will likely take decades of proper support for the military in order to bring it up to spec so that we can actually act on more than one hotspot at a time.

Take for example the DART. Good idea in principle, nearly useless in practice, since it has no airlift assets attached to it and we had to rent other's countries planes to get it to the indonesia disaster 2 weeks after it happened.

The religion of peace at work again.

No Canuck bashing from me.

My Great Grandfather fought alongside the Canadians troops at the second battle of Passchendaele.

Forget the crap our government talks the British people have LONG memories when it comes to this sort of thing.

This is fantastic news for Canadian patriots and defenders of freedom. It means the Canadian troops in the region are killing lots of jihadis. Al Qaeda wouldn't be trying to scare civilians if the Canadians weren't taking a serious toll on their supply of shahids.

Yo Bin-head, go piss up a tree (or a camel) you freakin retard.

In the cse of the 2nd, Liberal Wimps (just about 90% of the Toronto population) will balme Bush, then blame the conservative government and call for a wall to be built bewteen the US and Canada.

Hopefully not too OT, but we have to work this thru from all angles.

It's not up to us to suck favour from Americans. That's what nerds and keeners in high school do who feel they need approval to be in the cool group. And frankly, I have never been ashaimed to be Canadian, only somewhat embarrased for the bootlicks from Canada who say that.

And although there are a lot of liberals here, Chomsky, Moore, Steisand, the New York Times and all of Hollywood come from the US, so its not like its unique to Canada.

Further more, Canada has been kicking some major terror ass in Afghanastan. 2 Aussie soldiers have been killed in Iraq and Afghanastan, both not in combat, while 36 Canadian soldiers have been killed, at last half in combat. I'm not ashaimed of that at all.

I walked by the protest abuot 1:15pm today. There were maybe a few hundred people there, across the street from the US embassy. The first thing I saw when approaching was a Mohawk flag, then someone handing out flyers from some soccialist worker organization. There was an "artists against the war" table and a few others that were covered up because it was threatening rain. I didn't hang around long because it was pretty lame and there were too many people with body piercings (I have a hard time taking such people seriously).

There were quite a few signs to do with global warming. Projection. Pathetic.

I'd say the crowd was about half the sizze of the support-the-troops rally we had here in Toronto a few weeks ago.

Yeah, I have been reading about the Canadians fighting jihadis in Afghanistan. They have earned a reputation among American soldiers and marines for being extremely meticulous and tough - they don't like when people disrespect the Canadian troops. That reputation though, which was probably more a popular association of Canada with European culture and hence European softness and aversion for all things military, will probably be hard to shake until average folks take the time to learn how the Canadians fight and then report that in the media.

Al Qaeda Threatens Canada

This prat is a strategist? Sounds like he's confusing Canada with France.

What did we do to deserve taliban Jack Layton?

Speaking from the Toronto rally, NDP Leader Jack Layton told CTV Newsnet that Canadians are not protesting to discourage the troops, but rather to support them.

"We are raising these questions to support our troops," Layton said. "Our job as citizens is to make sure we're asking them to do the right thing in the world ... there is a sense that this mission is the wrong mission for Canada and that it is not helping to achieve the goals we all have in mind for Afghanistan."

And what is this wrong mission?

[Cpl. Steven] Jiovannetti did a six-month tour of duty in Afghanistan. A large part of his job was delivering humanitarian aid.

Humanitarian aid - oh, the humanity.

#93 Zombie Mohammed

Nice. Did you even go read the link?
Nobody's talking about kissing US ass, doubting our real commitment or the competency of our soldiers.
My point is this: If the GOP is running ads accusing Canadians for being lazy on the WOT - there's a reason.
Maybe they think that's how some Americans think.
We have a bit of work to do to regain some trust... like re-electing Harper and supporting the troops any way we can as they do the real dirty work.
I will be more careful next time.

#93 Zombie Mohammed

bootlicks

lol.

And yes, our country's official stance toward Islamist threats until recently has been shameful.

Just count your blessings that you elected Harper. He is tough like John Howard or GW.

That would mean so much more if Harper had majority government. Unfortunately he doesn't.

What this means, for those unfamiliar with parliamentary systems, is that Harper's Conservatives have more seats in Parliament than any other single party, but have less than all the others put together (what would be called a "plurality" when it happens in the Electoral College here). In a majority government, on the other hand, the party in power outnumbers everyone else combined.

The upshot of having a minority government, is that when the government introduces a bill for a vote and loses that vote, the government "falls" and another election is called for. Majority governments are immune to this danger.

So, we did elect Harper, but still didn't have the cojones to give him a majority. As a result he has to walk on eggs; he can only introduce bills which can get votes from at least one of the other parties. It has been argued that this need to find consensus instead of simply imposing new bills (as a majority government can) leads to better government, but it isn't perfect either.

The Canadian left will come out as useful idiots in this, insisting that this is the only reason "they" hate "us".

They don't seem to understand just how strongly Islamofascists feel about government-funded feminist lobbies and gay marriage.

Incidentally, I was thinking about it, and if a terrorist attack were to occur in Canada, it'd almost certainly happen in either Toronto or Montreal. You need a prolific target, and Toronto and Montreal have nice clogged subway systems and large Islamic immigrant populations. (That is to say, terrorists are more likely to fit in there. A suspicious-acting Arab in Winnipeg would get noticed before you could say "Oui M'sieur." That's not to say anything about the oft-maligned Canadian Muslim population.)

Anyhoo, the thing is, all Parliamentary seats in these cities are what we call "safe" seats for the various groups of leftists that hold them.

That is to say, any potential attack would strike at the heart of areas most supportive of terrorists and least supportive of the free world to begin with. It's the strategic equivalent of terrorists bombing the Berekely campus to protest Republican policy.

Al Queda would seek to attack Canada anyway, because they hate Canada for not being an Islamic fascist state. They already tried to blow up Toronto and other areas.
