Al-Qaeda has called on its followers to unleash massive forest fires upon the United States this summer

But, but, but… Barack Hussein Obama told us that the war on terror was officially over. Besides, these threats are not new. Following 9/11, reports of Muslim plots involving wildfires were widespread. But if the terrorists do manage to carry out such an attack, the Obama Regime will just blame the fires on global warming.

ABC NEWS The men who launched al Qaeda’s English-language magazine may have died in a U.S. missile strike last fall, but “Inspire” magazine lives on without them — and continues to promote jihadi attacks on Western targets, offering detailed advice on how to start huge forest fires in America with timed explosives and how to build remote-controlled bombs.

Two new issues of “Inspire” magazine have surfaced on jihadi forums, the first since radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki and chief Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula propagandist Samir Khan were killed by missiles from a U.S. drone over Yemen on September 30, 2011. The magazines eulogize Awlaki and Khan as the “spirit” and the “tongue” of “Inspire” respectively, but deny that their deaths will stop the magazine or jihad.

The second of the two issues seems to have been prepared after Khan and Awlaki’s deaths. “To the disappointment of our enemies,” says one of the articles, “issue 9 of Inspire magazine is out against all odds … The Zionists and the Crusaders thought that the magazine was gone with the martyrdom of Shaykh Anwar and brother Samir. Yet again, they have failed to come to terms with the fact that the Muslim ummah is the most fertile and most generous mother that gives birth to thousands and thousands of the likes of Shaykh Anwar and brother Samir.”

The magazines have also lost some of the snark and American colloquialisms favored by the U.S.-raised Samir Khan, who memorably titled one of his articles urging Western Muslims to wage lone wolf attacks “Make a Bomb in the Kitchen of Your Mom.” But issue nine carries equally lethal advice, with “It Is of Your Freedom to Ignite a Firebomb,” which gives detailed instructions on how to ignite an “ember bomb” in a U.S. forest, recommending Montana because of the rapid population growth in wooded areas.

Despite the deaths of leader Anwar al-Awlaki (left) and editor Samir Khan (right), al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has published two new issues of "Inspire" magazine.

“In America, there are more houses built in the [countryside] than in the cities,” says the writer, who uses the pseudonym The AQ Chef. “It is difficult to choose a better place [than] in the valleys of Montana.”

Islamic radicals and al-Qaeda takeover of Mali will turn it into a sharia-ruled Islamic state

Islamist and al-Qaeda forces, along with former Gadhafi mercenaries, have wrested control over Mali’s entire northern territory with the recent seizure of a key Malian city, an unsettling outcome which marks just one of the ugly after-effects of Libya’s civil war.

FrontPage Magazine  The recent seizure of Timbuktu, located 600 miles north of Mali’s capital of Bamako, by rebel forces battling the Malian government represented the government’s last major stronghold seizure in the north. Having already lost the northern Mali cities of Kidal and Gao only days earlier, the capture of Timbuktu has marked the effective end of the Malian government’s control over its northern territory, a desert region larger than France.

More importantly, there are now fears that a rebellion that began in January as a separatist movement is being overtaken by Islamist and al-Qaeda factions. These factions are not interested in a creating a separate secular state but rather are intent on turning the entire country of Mali into a Sharia-run Islamic state.

French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said, “It appears that an extreme Islamist-jihadist faction (Ansar Dine) is taking the upper hand among the different Tuareg factions.” For starters, it was the Ansar Dine, led by Salafist leader Iyad Ag Ghaly, which was the group which actually captured the city of Timbuktu, raising its black Islamist flag over the city and claiming it as its new base.

In addition to Timbuktu, it is reported that the Ansar Dine has already begun to flex it muscle by imposing new Islamic measures in recently captured cities of Kidal and Gao, measures which include the banning of Western-style clothes, music and alcohol.

Caroline Glick explains why there are no ‘lone wolf’ killers in Islam

The massacre of Jewish children at the Ozar Hatorah Jewish day school in Toulouse was decried by French President Nicolas Sarkozy and all of France. World leaders condemned the crime. The killer died in a standoff with French security forces. Justice was served. Or so you thought.

FRENCH JEWISH SCHOOL MURDERS BY A MUSLIM

Caroline Glick  Dig a little deeper and it becomes clear that justice has not been served. Indeed, it hasn’t even begun to be addressed. The killer, Mohamed Merah, was NOT a lone gunman. He wasn’t even one of the lone jihadists we hear so much about. He had plenty of accomplices. And not all of them were Muslims.

Mohammed Merah

An analysis of the nature of his crime and the identity of his many accomplices must necessarily begin with a question. Why did Merah videotape his crime? 

Why did he take the trouble of strapping a video camera to his neck and filming himself chasing eight-year-old Miriam Monsonego through the school courtyard and shooting her three times in the head? Why did he document his execution of Rabbi Jonathan Sandler and his two little boys, three-year-old Gavriel and six-year-old Aryeh? 

 The first answer is because Merah took pride in killing Jewish children. Beyond that, he was certain that millions of people would be heartened by his crime. By watching him shoot the life out of Jewish children, they would be inspired to repeat his actions elsewhere. And he was surely correct.

Millions of people have watched the 2002 video of Daniel Pearl being decapitated. Similar decapitation videos of Western hostages in Iraq and elsewhere have also become runaway Internet sensations.  

DANIEL PEARL BEHEADED BY KHALID SHEIK MOHAMMED

Led by Youssef Fofana, the Muslim gang in France that kidnapped and tortured Ilan Halimi to death in 2006 also took pictures of their handiwork. Their photographs were clearly imitations of the photos that Pearl’s killers took of him before they chopped his head off.

The pride that jihadist murderers take in their crimes is not merely manifested in their camera work. US Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who massacred 13 US servicemen at Fort Hood in 2009, showed obvious pride in his dedication to jihad. Hassan gave a presentation to his colleagues justifying jihad. He carried business cards in which he identified himself as an “SOA,” a soldier of Allah.

Similarly, Naveed Haq, the American Muslim who carried out the attack at the Seattle Jewish Federation building in 2006, murdering one woman and wounding another five, bragged to his mother and friend about his crime in monitored telephone calls from jail. Haq boasted that he was “a jihadi” and that his victims deserved to die because they were “Israeli collaborators.”

The exhibitionism common to all the men’s behavior makes it obvious that that their attacks were not the random actions of isolated crazy people or lone extremists. All of these killers were certain that they were part of a global movement that seeks the annihilation of the Jews, the subjugation of the Western world and the supremacy of jihadist Islam. And they were convinced that their actions served the interests of this movement and that they would be viewed as heroes by millions of their fellow Muslims for their killing of innocents.

THIS SITUATION is bad enough on its own. But what make it truly dangerous are the West’s responses to it. Those responses together with the crimes themselves expose the depraved and perilous nature of our times. And they show that Merah’s death can bring no closure to this story. There are five interrelated aspects to the West’s response to these crimes and the jihadist reality they expose.

The first aspect of the West’s response is denial. Time after time, Merah and his ilk throughout the Western world show us who they are and what they want. And time after time, the Western elites, and even much of the Jewish leadership, turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to their cries of murder and calls for the destruction of Western civilization.

In the case of Halimi’s murder, for instance, Paris police refused to view his abduction as a hate crime. Despite the fact that Fofana and
his followers called Halimi’s family and recited Koranic verses while Ilan screamed out in agony in the background, the Paris police treated his disappearance as a garden variety kidnap-for-ransom case. Even after Ilan was found naked at a rail heading with burns on more than 80 percent of his body and died en route to the hospital, it took French authorities over a week to admit that he had been the victim of an anti-Semitic crime.

 On a lesser note, everyone from the media to Jewish communal leaders in the US abjectly refuse to recognize that mainstream Muslim groups like the Muslim Students Association are sympathetically inclined towards Hamas. Moreover, they refuse to recognize that sympathy for Hamas necessarily entails sympathy for Hamas’s genocidal platform of annihilating the Jewish people in the name of jihad.

As David Horowitz wrote in a recent article at FrontPage magazine, Jewish student leaders at places such as the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill prefer to attack messengers like himself, than accept the inconvenient truth that Muslim student leaders on campus with them support the annihilation of Israel.

 Ignoring and denying the openly expressed aims of jihadists like Merah is of course only part of the problem. The second aspect of the West’s effective collusion with these killers is Western elites’ justification of their crimes. After initially pinning the blame for the Toulouse massacre on Nazis, when French authorities finally acknowledged Merah’s jihadist identity, they also provided his justification for murder. Speaking to reporters, French Interior Minister Claude Gueant gave us Merah’s name and his excuse at the same time.

Gueant told us that Merah was associated with al-Qaida and he was upset about what he referred to as Israel’s “murder” of Palestinian children. It should be unnecessary to note the simple truth that Israel doesn’t murder Palestinian children. Palestinians murder Israeli children. But then, if Merah got his news from the Western media there is a reasonable chance that he wouldn’t know that.

EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton was rightly condemned by Israeli political leaders this week for her equation of the actual massacre of Jewish children in Toulouse with the imaginary massacre of Palestinian children in Gaza. But she is not alone in this behavior. US President Barack Obama engaged in similarly outrageous libels when during his speech to the Muslim world in June 2009 he compared the Holocaust with Israeli treatment of the Palestinians. And the line separating these libels from actual incitement is often hard to find.

 French television, which Merah no doubt often watched, is notorious for crossing it. It was France 2 that gave us this century’s first anti-Semitic blood libel with its October 2000 tale of Muhammad al-Dura’s alleged death at the hands of IDF soldiers. The France 2 story was exposed as a fraud by an appellate court in Paris in 2008. The appellate court overturned a lower court’s libel ruling against Internet activist Philippe Karsenty who wrote on his personal website that the al-Dura story was a hoax.

 The appellate court viewed France 2′s unedited footage from the scene. That footage showed al-Dura moving after the France 2 cameraman had declared him dead. The footage led the court to overturn the decision of the lower court that had found Karsenty guilty of libel.

Apparently the same French establishment that now declares solidarity with France’s Jews is unwilling to part with the al-Dura hoax that incited the spilling of so much Jewish blood in the past decade. Last month, France’s Supreme Court overturned the appellate court’s ruling and ordered it to retry the case. As far as the Supreme Court of France is concerned, the appellate court had no right to ask France 2 to provide evidence that its story was true. According to the court, the unedited footage which proved the story was a blood libel should never have been admitted as evidence. The truth should never have been permitted to come to light.

IN ADDITION to denying, justifying and inciting jihadist violence, Western elites and authorities also engage in facilitating it and, after the fact, excusing it. In the case of Merah, although details are still unclear, it has been reported that he underwent jihadist training by al-Qaida in Afghanistan and was apprehended by Afghan authorities.

 Despite his ties to al-Qaida, either US or French military authorities decided he should be sent back to France even though he clearly constituted a danger to French society. Moreover, according to media reports, French authorities knew that he was dangerous and still failed to apprehend him. They had been informed that at least on one occasion, Merah sought to radicalize a 15-year-old Muslim boy. And yet, he was allowed to remain at large.

As the mother of the teenager said, “All these people had to die before they finally arrest Mohamed Merah. What an enormous waste. The police knew this individual was dangerous and radicalized. I complained to the police twice about Mohamed Merah and tried to follow up several times.”

 In the US, Major Hasan’s colleagues and commanders knew of his sympathy for jihad and his connections to jihadist leader Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen. And yet they promoted him to major and sent him to Fort Hood.

 The West’s complicity with these jihadist crimes doesn’t end with their perpetration.

 After failing to acknowledge that Halimi was abducted by jihadists who murdered him because he was a Jew, French authorities conducted his murderers’ trials behind closed doors. Hidden from public scrutiny, in their first trial, Halimi’s killers were given pitifully lights sentences. Fofana was rendered eligible for parole within 22 years. It was only the outcry of activists within the French Jewish community that caused French authorities to hold a retrial.

 In Seattle, Haq’s first trial for his attack on Seattle’s Jewish Federation was declared a mistrial. Seattle’s mayor and media went out of their way to present Haq as mentally ill. The prosecution failed to seek the death penalty and didn’t bother to present the records of Haq’s phone conversations bragging about his crimes until his second trial.

Together, the behavior of proud jihadist warriors of the West like Merah, Hasan, Haq and Fofana, and the depraved silence, indifference and complicity of Western elites with their jihadist aims, form the physical and moral landscape of our time. And it is because of this evil mix of perpetrators and enablers that Merah’s death is not a victory of justice.

Just one more reason why the vast majority of New Yorkers approve of the NYPD’s enhanced surveillance of Muslims

JOSE PIMENTEL. NYC resident and Muslim terrorist, an alleged al-Qaeda sympathizer, who is charged with plotting to attack NYC police and U.S. soldiers with homemade bombs.

CBS News  Pimentel is a Dominican-born Muslim convert also known as Muhammad Yusuf. Authorities say Pimentel had a website detailing his belief in jihad, or holy war, and said he believed Muslims were obligated to attack Americans as retaliation for U.S. military involvement in Muslim countries.

Police said Pimentel told an informant he wanted to attack targets that included police cars and stations, post offices and soldiers returning home from abroad, authorities said. He was arrested while making his homemade bomb in November, authorities say.

“Jose Pimentel engaged in a plot to build improvised explosive devices and use them to commit acts of violent jihad,” crossing a line between rhetoric and trying to take action, Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. said in a statement after Pimentel was indicted last month on charges including weapons possession and conspiracy as terror crimes.

FLYING PIGS MOMENT: Mayor Bloomberg defends NYPD surveillance of Muslims

Ray Kelly & Mayor Bloomberg

We have witnessed Bloomberg’s pigheaded support for the Ground Zero Victory Mosque, his Muslim Ramadan dinners, and his non-interference when Muslim asslifters block off entire streets to pray. So when he backs NYPD Chief Ray Kelly’s counter-terrorism efforts, despite the blowback from Muslims, he is to be applauded.

Well, as they say, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

​Village Voice  Reporters repeatedly grilled Mayor Mike Bloomberg this morning about recent reports of the New York Police Department’s surveillance of Muslim student groups at campuses throughout the Northeast.

 Bloomberg shot back at them that the NYPD policies are there to protect freedoms such as the free press. “You are not going to survive. You will not be able to be a journalist and write what you want to say if the people who want to take away your freedoms are allowed to succeed,” Bloomberg said after one reporter pressed him on the matter.

This latest controversy escalated with reports from the Associated Press that the police department has regularly monitored websitesrun by Muslim student groups at 16 colleges, including Columbia and New York University.

Yale University President Richard Levin came out today criticizing the surveillance practices, calling them “antithetical to the values” of Yale and the country — the subject of the first off-topic question thrown at Bloomberg at a press conference this morning in Brooklyn about job-creation.

“I don’t know why keeping the country safe is antithetical to the values of Yale. Yale’s freedoms to do research, to teach, to give people a place to say what they want to say is defended by law enforcement throughout this country,” Bloomberg said. “If going on websites and looking for information is not what Yale stands for, I don’t know. It’s the freedom of information. If people put things on websites, presumably — and make them available to everybody…it’s ridiculous it seems to me to argue that they’re not available to everybody.”

In line with the defense that the NYPD has offered in light of the recent reports, Bloomberg also reminded reporters that a dozen people have been convicted through this kind of monitoring.

Just the latest Muslim terrorist arrested by the NYPD before he could pull off an attack on NYC

A second reporter asked Bloomberg to respond to the allegation that authorities even sent an undercover agent on a whitewater rafting trip where the agent recorded students’ names and kept a record of how many times the students prayed.

“No,” he said, pausing again. “We have to keep this country safe. This is a dangerous place. Make no mistake about it. It’s very cute to go and to blame everybody and say we should stay away from…[policies like] intelligence gathering. The job of our law enforcement is to make sure that they prevent things and you only do that by being proactive. You have to respect people’s right to privacy. You have to obey the law, and I think that police officers across this country…do that.”

Finally, in the last question of the news conference, another reporter asked him to respond to complaints from the Muslim community that they are being surveilled more than others. “I don’t know how anybody would know that,” Bloomberg said.

He ended with one more line about free press: “Remind yourself when you turn off the light tonight, you have your job because there are young men and women who have been giving their lives overseas for the last 200 plus years so that we would have freedom of the press. And we go after the terrorists. We are going to continue to do that and the same thing is true for the people that work on the streets of our cities.”

After the conference, Runnin’ Scared called Cyrus McGoldrick, civil rights manager for Council of American-Islamic Relations in New York, to hear his response to Bloomberg’s latest defense of the policy. ”We know very well that, despite the NYPD’s best effort to deny it, this was not about following leads — this was about religious, ethnic profiling,” he told us.

When Runnin’ Scared asked him about Bloomberg mentioning free press in his defense, McGoldrick said, “That’s laughable. I would expect better from him…(Oh, how quickly they turn)

The idea that to protect freedom of press we need to then give up freedom of…religion, it doesn’t follow. It’s not logical.” Public safety is important, but law enforcement should not devote its limited resources to blanket monitoring of these students, he said. “We are looking at the use of fear to justify the devastation and destruction of our constitutional rights.”

Bare Naked Saturday: What Have the CAIR Bears Been Up to This Week?

Last month, WordPress.com declared war on the brave little site that is BareNakedIslam.com — which delivers an unflinching and relentless look at what “the religion of peace” (which is neither religious nor peaceful, and is in actuality a militarized ideological cult predicated on world domination and the forced capitulation of all non-Muslims) is up to on a daily basis.  WordPress.com deleted the site because Muslims threatened to murder WordPress staff for offending Islam if it didn’t — and like the media companies who bow whenever Muslims make similar threats to censor political cartoons or news reports that give accurate depictions of Islam, WordPress.com folded into dhimmihood.

Since then, the remarkable people behind BareNakedIslam found a new home and have continued to do what they do better than almost anyone except Pamela Geller — yanking back the “religion of peace” curtains and exposing what Islam’s really about and what it’s up to in the patient chess game for dominance that it’s playing with the West (while idiots in the Tolerant Left here in this country delusionally pretend Muslims are engaged in “murder-is-just-a-misunderstanding!” Candyland).

Islam really and truly does want to kill you — and it would today if it could, unless you submit to dhimmihood and bow and scrape before a would-be caliphate.

I think a website that provides up-to-the-minute intelligence reports on the people who want to kill you is too important not to visit regularly, so BareNakedIslam is one of the first stops of my day, every day.  Reading it is like having  a classified dossier dropped into your lap of everything the Tolerant Left doesn’t want you to know about the greatest existential threat this country (and the entire free world) faces.

Here’s some of what BareNakedIslam reported this week:

* The Tolerant Left in Italy has been promoting the Islamization of that country because they think it will destroy the Catholic Church (which the Left there considers its mortal enemy).  So, this is enemy-of-my-enemy-is-a-friend type thinking and Leftists are actively trying to build mega-mosques all across the country to encourage Muslims to ultimately transform Italy into an Islamic republic. Though Sweden or the Netherlands will be the first European country to be taken over by Muslims because of the Left’s stupidity, Italy could find itself in the next round (with Britain, France, and Germany).

* Mayor Bloomberg in NYC once again comes out swinging on behalf of Islam — doing his best to prevent police from monitoring the activities of mosques (which are fronts for terrorist activity). This is that truly perverse group-think in the Tolerant Left where to prove how “liberal and open-minded they are” (and proving this is an obsession with these people) they bend over backwards to pretend that the people who destroyed a large part of the city and killed thousands of New Yorkers are as innocent and harmless as newborn kittens (and anyone who thinks otherwise is an Islamaphobe…which is the latest Alinsky-grade word that Democrats use to describe anyone who opposes them).

* Muslims are agitating for the removal of dogs from Europe as they are offensive to Islam. As expected, the Tolerant Left in Europe is aggressively pushing the banning of dogs before Muslims start threatening to kill people for not meeting their demands to outlaw Fido.

CHECK THIS OUT:

Spend some time over at BareNakedIslam today and check out everything else that’s going on.

Why not consider picking a day of the week and making this a new tradition?  I picked Saturday because it’s a day that political news is light and I have the morning largely free of anything else to do; this is when I typically catch up on TV shows that are now available on Hulu…and I’ve found that I can have one window up watching a show and BareNakedIslam up in another and during commercial breaks I’m scanning the latest news on what terrible things Muslims did that week and what violence was committed in the name of Islam.

Maybe you could start doing this too…and share BareNakedIslam’s content with your friends and family.

You could have a lot of fun with this if you want, too — like frying up a bunch of bacon to munch as you read BareNakedIslam every Saturday morning. If you live alone, or have a partner who doesn’t mind (or neighbors who don’t peek into your windows), you could even go all Bare Naked yourself while you read the site (just make sure you’re done frying up the bacon first). Some of it is admittedly dense and unpleasant to read — like popping into a horror movie already in progress — so whatever you need to do to make educating yourself on Islam a priority, please do it.  Islamists count on the free world sleeping through the would-be global caliphate’s takeover. Becoming informed on what’s going on thwarts these sharks that Leftists keep telling you are dolphins.

On a very personal note, I really want to do as much as I can to promote this marvelous site.  WordPress.com is a nightmare to deal with.  As some of you know, HillBuzz.org was hosted on WordPress’ server until early 2011 — just like BareNakedIslam was.  Because HB opposes Barack Obama and what the Tolerant Left is doing to America, WordPress frequently took away my access to the site, suspiciously made the site unavailable for loading at weird and suspicious times, and randomly deleted things from our archives when they probably didn’t think I’d notice.  One day, there’d be 8,695 articles archived…and the next that total would be 8,693.  What vanished in the middle of the night?  I never had any way of figuring that out — but here and there I’ve gone back to look for something I know I wrote and I can’t for the life of me find it. I know that I never deleted it, and that no one on the HB team deleted it, so who did?

Even though it’s expensive to pay for hosting costs on a private server, we moved HB away from WordPress because we were afraid that during the 2012 campaign WordPress would just delete us altogether in service to Barack Obama’s re-election bid.  Some months when we’ve really struggled to scrape together enough lint-covered pocket change to pay the operating costs of this site, I questioned whether this was a smart decision to make.

Man alive, in January when WordPress.com aimed the censorship Death Star at BareNakedIslam I realized I made the smart decision to remove HB from the WordPress orbit before the same thing happened to us.

BareNakedIslam became a cautionary tale for any political site that opposes the Tolerant Left’s talking points — you just can’t run a site like this that speaks out against Islam, the Democrat Party, or Barack Obama specifically and have your site hosted on WordPress.com because suspicious things will start happening to thwart your efforts or harm your ability to get your message out.

I want BareNakedIslam to thrive in its new home and hope you can do whatever you can to make sure people know that WordPress.com and Islam did not win and this brave little dynamo is still alive and well and exposing those who would murder us all.

HOORAY! The English Defence League gives birth to the European Defence League

Egypt’s cultural heritage is under attack as nearly 200,000 rare books and manuscripts go up in flames at the Egyptian Institute

 As Egypt’s new fundamentalist Islamic rulers threaten to destroy the Sphinx and the pyramids, other evidence of Egypt’s history is also at risk with the burning of the Egyptian Institute and its precious books and manuscripts that are the heritage of all human civilization.

Israel Today  (Frederic F) On December 17, an Egyptian mob, presumably of the type that has been voting for the Muslim Brotherhood, demonstrated that they have no intention of “modernizing” or adopting Western-style pragmatism when they torched the Institute of Egypt in Cairo. The scientific institute played an important role in disseminating knowledge about Egyptian hieroglyphic texts after they had been deciphered in the early 19th century. 

The Institute’s director, Mohammad al-Sharnoubi, wept over the destruction of this precious heritage while Army soldiers allegedly stood idly by, poking fun at him.

Any number of political analysts have tried to write off the electoral gains by Islamist parties in Egypt, insisting that once in power, groups like the Muslim Brotherhood and the Salafist al-Nour Party will take a pragmatic approach to governing.

The scientific institute played an important role in disseminating knowledge about Egyptian hieroglyphic texts after they had been deciphered in the early 19th century

It is the same nonsense that was spouted as the Nazis rose to power in Germany, when the Ayatollah Khomeini made his triumphant return to Iran, when Yasser Arafat’s PLO terrorist organization was elevated to the status of a national government, and when Hamas won the 2006 Palestinian legislative election.

Among the casualties of the Islamist assault were some 192,000 rare books and manuscripts.

Bird's-eye view of the Institut d'Égypte in Cairo, which was almost gutted over the weekend

The Institute of Egypt was established by Napoleon Bonaparte when he invaded Egypt in the late 18th century. For centuries the Institute of Egypt housed priceless chronicles of the nation’s history, as well as the findings of hundreds of top scholars and scientists.

The Institute of Egypt symbolized Egypt’s connection to the West, and for many its establishment was the start of the “modern era” in Egypt. And that is why it had to go. Because Egypt’s Islamists have no intention of modernizing, not on Western terms, at any rate. Like the Ayatollahs in Iran and Hamas in Gaza, their ultimate goal is to return Egypt to a medieval form of life where a strict interpretation of Sharia Law governs the actions of all.

Volunteers trying to salvage what's left of some 192,000 books, journals and writings

The first to suffer will be Egypt’s Christians. They are suffering already.

But most of this is being ignored by an international community determined to paint the “Arab Spring” as a positive phenomenon. It is certainly a positive thing to throw off the yoke of a repressive dictatorship. But it is a negative thing to replace that repressive dictatorship with oppressive theocratic rule.

That the world is championing this change in Egypt when just 30 years ago the same scenario played out in Iran with devastating results just goes to show that mankind is doomed to never learn from his mistakes.

"If any country refuses to allow the spread of Islam within its borders, we will wage jihad on that country."

Just like Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, and sooner or later, Syria, Jordan, and Yemen, the U.S. is looking at Iranian-style fundamentalist Islamic governments all  over the Middle East. But the real threat to America’s interests and security is a lot closer to home. In fact, it’s already here.

Jordan’s Tahrir Party leader, Sheik Admand Abu Quddum says, “Islam commands us to fight to spread the religion of Allah in every country on earth. We will give them the chance to convert. If they refuse, they must pay the jizya (tax) and submit to the laws of Islam.” “All government leaders must be Muslim and male. And, of course, Israel must be annihilated.”

This is what unrestricted Muslim immigration to the West has gotten us. And no matter what they try to tell you on ‘All American Muslim,’ Muslims have no intention of assimilating, only dominating. It’s a religion with them. It is not radical Islam, it is Islam.

PAKISTANIS want "Peace with Jihad!"

Screams of ‘Death to America’ could be heard everywhere in recent anti-US mass protests. But don’t stop sending them $$billions in American taxpayer dollars because they still like our money.

Why Newt Gingrich’s War on Islam is good for America

Call it the war on terror. Or not. The real war is the war on Islam being fought in small towns and big cities in America as well nearly every country around the world. Newt Gingrich gets it. Few others do. Or ever will.  

Newt’s recent declaration that he would ask John Bolton to be his Secretary of State, and if we’re lucky, he would also choose Allen West as his Secretary of Defense will put the world on notice. The business of Islamic jihad, Islamization of the West and creeping Sharia isn’t business as usual anymore. The domestic and foreign Islamic thugs working to destroy America from within and America’s interests throughout the world would have a powerful new foe who intends to return America to its rightful position as the world’s only superpower where the motto is, ‘We don’t care if they like us, as long as they fear us.’

Not surprisingly, Newt has the left wing moonbats foaming at the mouth because they understand that Newt’s ideas are more than just campaign rhetoric. Newt has named the enemy and will not be made impotent by political correctness that forces most politicians into caving to the notion that Islam is a religion of peace.

Gingrich’s 2010 documentary, “America At Risk: The War With No Name,” portrays a disturbing vision of the world in which the U.S. and its western allies are at war with Islam, vividly demonstrating the dangers facing America, one decade after the attacks on 9/11. Today, Washington refuses to tell the truth about the war we are fighting. According to experts, we are at war with Islamists – and it is a war we are losing. “This war will go on until either the entire world either embraces Islam or submits to Islamic rule,” says historian Bernard Lewis, while appearing in the film.

Speaking at the American Enterprise Institute last year, Gingrich told the audience:

It’s time we had a national debate on this. And one of the things I’m going to suggest today is a federal law that says ‘no court, anywhere in the United States, under any circumstances, is allowed to consider Sharia as a replacement for American law.’ Period.

Gingrich believes, the primary threat facing the U.S. isn’t a foreign adversary but the gradual imposition of Islamic Sharia law in America.

IB TIMES   Gingrich likes to couch his policy positions in broader ideas, invoking his training as an historian to offer context and clarity. So it went in a 2010 speech to the American Enterprise Institute. He depicted a clash of civilizations and ideologies between western liberalism and radical Islam, which he likened to World War II in its importance and the Cold War in its duration.

But Afghanistan, the current presidential frontrunner asserted at the time, is not the central front in this conflict. It is in the United States, where Gingrich contended Sharia principles were slowly and insidiously taking hold.

“Stealth jihadis use political, cultural, societal, religious, intellectual tools; violent jihadis use violence,” Gingrich said. “But in fact they’re both engaged in jihad and they’re both seeking to impose the same end state, which is to replace Western civilization with a radical imposition of Sharia.”

He went on to describe Sharia law as a “mortal threat to the survival of freedom in the United States” and to call for a federal law barring courts from using Sharia law. He reiterated the call for federal Sharia ban while speaking later that year at the Values Voter Summit, and told an audience at the Cornerstone Church in Texas that he feared his grandchildren would see America “dominated by radical Islamists.”

For evidence, Gingrich has pointed to cases that include a New Jersey judge invoking Sharia when he denied a Muslim woman a restraining order against her ex-husband (an appeals court reversed the decision) and a blind student at St. Cloud State University  being exempted from a class after Muslim students objected to his seeing-eye dog on religious grounds. He drew plaudits from like-minded conservatives, with Andrew C. McCarthy writing in the National Review that Gingrich had “crystallized the essence of our national security challenge” by making the question of “where do you stand on sharia?” paramount. 

Further exemplifying his anti-Muslim sentiments, In an interview last week, Gingrich explained that the Palestinians are an “invented people” a statement effectively denying the right of Palestinians to a state. Such a position would end U.S. support for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and rejects the policy positions of the Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Obama administrations.

Newt called the Palestinians “terrorists.”

Not one to backpedal his statements, even when it is considered politically incorrect, in a recent GOP debate, Newt not only didn’t back down, he doubled down on his positions on the Israel-Palestinian conflict saying, “Somebody ought to have the courage to tell the truth. These people are terrorists. They teach terrorism in their schools. They have textbooks that say, if there are 13 Jews and nine Jews are killed, how many Jews are left? We pay for those textbooks through our aid money.”

Newt Gingrich has said the Arab Spring and the Muslim campaign against Catholic University are symptoms of a growing anti-Christian climate, and pledged to defend  religious freedom around the globe.

Christian Post  Gingrich criticized the Obama administration’s involvement in the Arab Spring – the Middle East grassroots uprising that has overthrown longstanding authoritarian leaders such as Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi and Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak – arguing that such involvement is creating an atmosphere of hatred towards Christians.

The former House Speaker also took issue with the recent complaint by Muslim students against Catholic University of America. The complaint filed with the D.C. Office of Human Rights charged that the school rooms used for Islamic prayer have religious material such crosses and images of Jesus, and that the private Catholic university would not sponsor a Muslim student association.

Gingrich responded to the complaint by asking, “Are you prepared to sponsor a Christian missionary in Mecca? Because if you’re not prepared to sponsor religious liberty in Saudi Arabia, don’t come and nag us with some hypocritical baloney. So I think we need to be prepared to stand firm for genuine religious liberty, not for something that’s anti-Christian.”

Gingrich also compared the Ground Zero Victory Mosque project to building a Nazi monument outside the Holocaust Museum.

And perhaps, best of all, as President, Newt Gingrich would prosecute the anti-American CAIR, ISNA, NAIT, ICNA, and all other Muslim Brotherhood affiliates operating in the U.S.

Sudden Jihad Syndrome hits Belgium, but media won’t report the deadly grenade attack was perpetrated by a MUSLIM terrorist

At least five people were killed, including an 18-month-old toddler, and 122 were wounded in the assault yesterday that brought tragedy to the pre-Christmas season in Liege, Belgium.

FAITH FREEDOM  Only the bloggers seem to want to tell you that Nordine Amrani, a MUSLIM man with a history of weapons and drug offenses left home armed with hand grenades, a revolver and an assault rifle. Stopping at a central square filled with holiday shoppers, he lobbed three grenades into the crowd, then opened fire.

Herman Van Rompuy, a former Belgian prime minister who is now president of the European Council, said he was badly shaken by the attack. “There is no explanation whatsoever,” Van Rompuy said. “It leaves me perplexed and shocked.” (Well, duh, the killer was a Muslim, case closed)

Amrani was a Muslim and he was waging his personal Jihad against the infidels. After over 18,000 terrorist attacks by the followers of the religion of peace since 9/11, the only thing that is inexplicable and indeed shocking is the surprise of the politicians and their inability to connect the dots between the terrorists and the hate mongering teachings of their prophet.

Two days earlier, another Muslim, calmly pointed his handgun and opened fire on passing cars near Vine Street and Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood while shouting Allahu Akbar. He injured one passerby before being killed by the police. In both cases the media refused to identify the killer as Muslim terrorist.

The Belgian Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo said the attack was the act of a “lone assailant,” a man known to police who had “no links to terrorism.” “This is an isolated case. This is not about terrorism,” he stressed. (Riiight, butliberals always insist that an obvious terror attack has nothing to do with Islamic terroism)

The truth is that Muslims don’t have to belong to any organization to carry out jihad. Any Muslim can arm him/herself with guns, grenades, poisonous chemicals, or even a kitchen knife and perform his religious duty, killing the infidels. The fact that a Muslim has been involved in drug trafficking, theft or pimping does not preclude him or her to become a jihadi. Most of the companions of Muhammad were thugs and ruffians, murderers and thieves prior to converting to Islam. After converting, they put their expertise at the service of their prophet. Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who was responsible for the murder of thousands of people in Iraq, was originally a car thief.  Many Muslim converts are ex-convicts and many of them converted to Islam in prison. I know this first hand because many of them write to me and brag about their résumé of crimes prior to their conversion to Islam.  Islam attracts criminals.

Nidal Malik Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter and Faisal Shahzad, the Time Square bomber, were also acting as individuals.  However, they were not without any connection to a terrorist organization. Islam is a terrorist organization. The multitudes of Islamic terrorist organizations don’t have a distinct ideology. They follow the Quran.

Islamic terrorism will continue and more innocent lives will be lost. The leftist politicians and the leftist media will continue to hoodwink the public and deny any Islamic involvement. None of the major news media mentioned that Nrodine Amrani or the Hollywood shooter were Muslim, even though the latter was shouting Allahu Akbar while gunning down people in the street. (But the bloggers did)

The public is awakening and they will not sit till their unscrupulous politicians and their compromised media take them to the slaughterhouse to the last person. Their anger can be heard in the Internet. The MSM is silent, but the Internet is roaring.

The Belgian jihadi on Tuesday was killed accidentally by one of his grenades. Had he been able to throw all his granddads at the public, the death toll and injuries could have been much higher.

The peaceful West is becoming a war zone, courtesy of the religion of peace. Islamic immigration has cost the westerners countless lives, enormous amount of tax money and their freedom.  This chaos will continue until, either the leftist parties are eradicated and the media is discredited, or the West succumbs to Islam.

Winning the most seats right behind the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt’s recent election, the Salafi Party praises Osama bin-Laden

Even more radical than the Muslim Brotherhood and poised to gain a lot of power in the new Egyptian government, radical Islamic fundamentalist Salafi Party loves bin-Laden, but Muslim brother, Barack Hussein Obama? Not so much…for now.

So how’s that Arab Spring ‘democracy’ movement working out for you now, Barry? Oh, thats right, replacing the secular governments of the Middle East and Africa with strict shari’a rule has always been your intention.  Having their leaders condemn you, is just part of  the Re-elect Obama 2012 Campaign Strategy to fool the American voter. Again.  Shhhhh, don’t tell anyone. I wonder if Senator John Kerry met with the Salifists at the same time he was meeting with the Muslim Brotherhood on his recent trip to Egypt?
