Terror Plot Foiled In England

And this one was particularly vile, even by the incredibly low standard already set by the jihadi pigs who infect much of the world.

EVIL Muslim terrorists were to kidnap a British soldier on UK streets and force him to plead with Tony Blair for his life in return for a pull-out of troops from Iraq, The Sun can reveal.

The soldier would have been filmed begging the PM to withdraw from Iraq and Afghanistan in a sick propaganda stunt.
Army sources said the target was a British Muslim soldier in his 20s.

He would eventually be beheaded on film in a sick mirror of the torture and savage killing of British hostage Ken Bigley if Mr Blair refused.

Senior security sources say the plot would have put the most unbearable blackmail pressure on the Premier to act.

It would also have sent shockwaves through the entire British Armed Forces - putting the fear of God into every man and woman in uniform on or off duty.

The fact that the arrests were made in Birmingham could suggest that soldiers recovering from wounds in military hospitals there might have been targeted.

So – will the terror-supporting auxiliaries of the anti-war movement consider condemning this planned atrocity? Or is this simply one more instance that we have to understand the feelings and grievances of the swine who seek to perpetrate such acts?

All In The (Terrorstinian) Family

Just a quick view of the family values of a typical Terrorstinian family following the murder of three Israeli civilians by a jihadi pig in Eilat.

The mother of Muhammad Faisal Saksak, the 21-year-old suicide bomber who carried out Monday's attack in Eilat, said she was aware of her son's plan to blow himself up and that she had wished him "good luck."

Dozens of Palestinians, chanting slogans against Israel and the US, converged on the family's home to "congratulate" them on the success of the attack.

A celebration over the intentional, planned, premeditated murder of random innocents – clearly these people are neither civilized nor desirous of peace.

War On Terrorism An Over-Reaction To 9/11

This column goes to prove that some folks may have book smarts but no common sense -- or moral compass. Professor David Bell effectively argues that the terrorists didn't kill enough Americans on 9/11 to justify our response.

IMAGINE THAT on 9/11, six hours after the assault on the twin towers and the Pentagon, terrorists had carried out a second wave of attacks on the United States, taking an additional 3,000 lives. Imagine that six hours after that, there had been yet another wave. Now imagine that the attacks had continued, every six hours, for another four years, until nearly 20 million Americans were dead. This is roughly what the Soviet Union suffered during World War II, and contemplating these numbers may help put in perspective what the United States has so far experienced during the war against terrorism.

It also raises several questions. Has the American reaction to the attacks in fact been a massive overreaction? Is the widespread belief that 9/11 plunged us into one of the deadliest struggles of our time simply wrong? If we did overreact, why did we do so? Does history provide any insight?

Certainly, if we look at nothing but our enemies' objectives, it is hard to see any indication of an overreaction. The people who attacked us in 2001 are indeed hate-filled fanatics who would like nothing better than to destroy this country. But desire is not the same thing as capacity, and although Islamist extremists can certainly do huge amounts of harm around the world, it is quite different to suggest that they can threaten the existence of the United States.

Yet a great many Americans, particularly on the right, have failed to make this distinction. For them, the "Islamo-fascist" enemy has inherited not just Adolf Hitler's implacable hatreds but his capacity to destroy. The conservative author Norman Podhoretz has gone so far as to say that we are fighting World War IV (No. III being the Cold War).

I'm utterly speechless that an educated many would write this, or that an American publication would print this.

But then again, Bell is a college professor.

And the newspaper is the LA Times.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised at all.

Terrostinian Jihadi Murders Innocent Israelis

Does this atrocity remind Jimmy Cater of the difference between Israel and the Terrorstinians?

A suicide bomber has blown himself up in a bakery in IsraelÂ’s Red Sea resort of Eilat, killing three people in the first such attack inside the Jewish state in nine months.

Notice that the target was a bakery, not a military installation, and it is clear that the bomb was intended to hit civilians – though there is an indication that a larger civilian target may have been intended.

It had been nine months since such an attack had been carried out – a record of safety that can be attributed to the success of Israel in fencing out the terrorists. You know, the fence Carter decries in his book as oppressive.

No doubt the anti-Semitic former president will agree with this statement from the Terrorstinian AnarchyÂ’s ruling Hamas movement, which is couched in language similar to his book.

"The Eilat operation is a natural response to the occupier's crimes against our people amid continued blockades, incursions, assassinations and arrests in the West Bank and Gaza Strip," said Hamas spokesman Ismail Radwan.

"It is the Zionist enemy who is responsible for the deteriorating situation among the Palestinians. The resistance is entitled to defend the Palestinian people.”

Israel has made further steps towards peace with the Terrorstinians in recent weeks – which have obviously been seen as a sign of weakness and resulted in this deadly assault.

Rocket Attacks On Israel From Gaza

Not that Jimmy Carter or other apologists for terror would think this is a bad thing.

Islamic Jihad militants launched homemade rockets into Israel from the Gaza Strip on Sunday in retaliation for Israel's continuing military operations against their group in the West Bank.

The rocket attacks came despite a two-month-old cease-fire between Israel and the Palestinians in Gaza.

The group said it fired seven homemade rockets toward the Israeli towns of Sderot and Ashkelon. The Israeli army said several mortar shells had landed in empty areas in Israel on Sunday morning, causing no injuries.

How long is Israel expected to restrain itself before it takes the sort of actions permitted any other country when repeatedly attacked by terrorists?

Why Mosques Must Not Be Treated As Special

After all, given the connection between jihadi terrorism and Islamic institutions, is it any wonder that incidents like this one in England happen? Indeed, it is surprising that they donÂ’t happen more often.

A British-born terror suspect was on the run last night after breaking his control order and evading police by taking shelter in a mosque.

The man, aged 26, is thought to have escaped abroad after claiming that he wanted to undertake terror training in Afghanistan.

* * *

The man, who is of Pakistani origin and lives in Manchester, was only placed under the control order this month. But within four days he disappeared. Police sources say that the man failed to show up at a local police station to surrender his passport. He was traced to a nearby mosque, where community leaders say he had sought sanctuary. Police rarely enter a mosque: they began discussions with both local community figures and leading officials connected to the mosque.
It is understood that while these talks were taking place, the young suspect was helped to escape through a back entrance while officers from Greater Manchester Police were stationed outside.

Whitehall officials said it is not known whether the person inside the mosque who helped this suspect escape knew that he was under a control order.

In other words, “sanctuary” in a mosque is really a code for giving suspects a safe place to hide and plot their escape with the cooperation of the religious authorities at the mosque while they are ostensibly negotiating with the police.

The time has come to forget special concern for the religious sensitivities of the religion that has spawned the jihadis. While I know that most Muslims are good and decent people, police need to be willing to kick down the doors and search for jihadis using Muslim institutions to fund, aid and abet terrorist activity. This is, after all, a war for survival – and one that was chosen and instigated by the jihadis, not by us.

A Book Review Worth Reading – And A Book Worth Buying

Robert Spencer reviews Stephen Emerson’s recent book in the current Human Events.

Are you aware of the al Qaeda plot to assassinate President Bush that was uncovered in 2005? Did you know that jihad terrorists in the U.S. financed the 1993 World Trade Center bombing partially through the sale of counterfeit T-shirts? Did you know that a professor at the University of South Florida in the 1990s was one of the international leaders of the terrorist group Palestinian Islamic Jihad and that he used his university activities as a cover while he raised money, gained recruits and disseminated propaganda for the jihad group? Had you heard that in May 2003, an American citizen living in Ohio pled guilty to conducting surveillance of the Brooklyn Bridge and other potential targets for al Qaeda?

These were not isolated incidents. In fact, they are just a few of the known activities of a huge jihad network that still operates in the United States, but of which few Americans are aware. That lack of awareness, however, is not because the information is unavailable: Steven Emerson’s “Jihad Incorporated: A Guide to Militant Islam in the U.S.” tears the cover off this American jihad network. It is a comprehensive summation of what is known about the activities of al Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and other jihad groups within the United States. Although the tone of this book is sober and straightforward throughout, the cumulative effect is startling: The extent to which these jihad groups have penetrated American society is likely to come as a surprise even to relatively informed readers.

How active are the jihadis in this country? How extensive is their network. I think this is good information for every American to have – and that the apologists for terror will try to keep out or our hands by any means necessary.

Attack On American Embassy In Athens

No injuries, and only slight damage reported.

Suspected leftist guerrillas fired a rocket at the U.S. embassy in Athens on Friday but no one was hurt in the blast, police and government officials said.

In the most serious attack against the mission in 10 years, the small rocket launched from across the street shattered windows and woke up nearby residents in the central Athens area at 5:58 AM (0358 GMT).

"There are one or two anonymous phone calls which claim that the Revolutionary Struggle was behind the attack," Public Order Minister Byron Polydoras told reporters outside the embassy. "Most likely, it is an act by local perpetrators."

The leftist guerrilla group has emerged as the most serious domestic threat since the dismantling of the deadly November 17 group in 2002. It claimed an assassination attempt against Greece's culture minister in May and a bomb at the Economy Ministry which wounded two people and damaged buildings 13 months ago.

Greece has a history of terrorist activity occurring within its borders, but a good record of bringing the perps down. It will be interesting to see how the story develops.

Islamist Cleric -- We Have More Right To Australia Than Christians

I'm waiting for the international condemnation of this statement by Islamic organizations and prominent Muslims.

SHEIK Taj Din al-Hilali has ridiculed his adopted country on Egyptian television, dismissing the furore over his insults to women and defence of gang rapists while claiming Muslims had more right to live in Australia than the descendants of convicts.

The latest outburst by Australia's chief Muslim cleric came during an interview as he enjoyed what was meant to be a self-imposed exile in the Middle East to duck the national outrage he sparked late last year.

But rather than douse the controversy, which divided Muslim Australia and further strained relations with the broader community, the imam of Sydney's Lakemba Mosque has inflamed it.

"The Western people are the biggest liars and oppressors and especially the English race," the Mufti of Australia said in Arabic during the extensive interview in Eqypt, his birthplace. "The Anglo-Saxons who arrived in Australia arrived in shackles. We paid for passports from our own pockets. We have a right in Australia more than they have."

Remember -- this is the same guy who said rape victims were pieces of meat who deserved to be assaulted by innocent Muslim boys who they tempted by dressing immodestly. Indeed, he compared them to pieces of meat left out where they could be consumed by animals.

Of course I doubt there will be any serious criticism of the latest round of comments, because it is really reflective of the history of Islam as a whole -- one in which Muslims seek and impose a regime under which they have greater rights than followers of any other religion wherever they go, reducing native populations to dhimmi status.

Muslim Rep. Spreads Lies After Judiciary Committee Appointment

So much for believing that Keith Ellison might be a loyal American or have any grounding in reality.

Rep. Keith Ellison has been named to the House Judiciary Committee, a panel that has oversight over issues such as civil liberties, immigration and courts.

In a prepared statement, Ellison, D-Minn., called the selection an honor and privilege.

"I look forward to pursuing a progressive agenda in the committee, including the restoration of American citizen's civil liberties that have come under increasing attack over the past six years," said Ellison, the first Muslim member of Congress.

Ellison, a freshman lawmaker, said this week he'd like to see a ban on racial profiling, an issue that could come up in the Judiciary Committee.

Notice that phrase -- "progressive action". That means "regressive action" to the pre-9/11 status quo when it comes to detecting and preventing terrorist activity.

It also seems to me that Ellison is a liar in that there has been no attack on civil liberties in this country, and that there is nothing that needs be restored.

On the other hand, he is more than willing to help his fellow Muslims escape detection when they try to engage in terrorist acts.

What a guy – brought to you by the Democrat Party.

Dead Terrorists Piss Off Leftists

Loyal Americans would think that this is a good thing.

The suspected al-Qaeda militant who planned the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in east Africa was killed in an American airstrike in Somalia, an official said Wednesday.

"I have received a report from the American side chronicling the targets and list of damage," Abdirizak Hassan, the Somali president's chief of staff, told The Associated Press. "One of the items they were claiming was that Fazul Abdullah Mohammed is dead." ...

Mohammed allegedly planned the attacks on the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania that killed 225 people.

He is also suspected of planning the car bombing of a beach resort in Kenya and the near simultaneous attempt to shoot down an Israeli airliner in 2002. Ten Kenyans and three Israelis were killed in the blast at the hotel, 12 miles north of Mombasa. The missiles missed the airliner.

Which may, of course, explain these responses from the unAmerican Left.
First at TalkLeft.

...do we just believe we can go anywhere in the world and kill people because they might be al-Qaida followers?

Hell yes – and we need to do it more often and better. After all, terrorists are hostis humani generis -- the enemies of all mankind. Kill them where ever and when ever we can find them.

And then, of course, from the moonbats over at Kos.

The notion that we have any idea of whatever structure something called "al Qaeda" may have, sufficient to be able to ID who's in charge of what, is laughable. The idea that some notional "our man in Modagishu", ever alert for these key al Qaeda operatives that our expertise has identified, and probably circulates packs of playing cards with their pictures, spotted our intended target and dogged his footsteps to the Kenyan border to call in this airstrike, is ludicrous. I doubt that even the con men in charge of the whole operation believe that they have any idea who or what may have been at ground zero of those smoking holes. The only thing one can be confident of from this report, is that there would be no report were there not a need for some positive news of progress in the GWOT on the eve of Our Leader's inspiring speech outlining the Glorious Way Forward. Onward, to ever more and larger smoking holes, in ever more countries! The brown people will get the message sooner or later.

* * *

I have been a keen observer of the US political scene my entire adult life, and I wouldn't have any idea who in the Republican political machine to send the AC-130s after, or any confidence that knocking off any or all of them would improve the world, despite an utter confidence that they have fucked up the world mightily.

Yep, that’s right – al-Qaeda is morally superior to the GOP, and there are so many of us that are appropriate targets that this asshat wouldn’t know which of us to kill first. And sadly, such comments are typical of the latter day left in this country – who interestingly enough, seem blissfully unconcerned about the fact that most of the victims of this jihadi scumbag were, to use the words of the KOSsack, “brown people”, and that the US served up justice on their behalf as well as that of our own country.

At what point does what passes for “liberalism” today become aid and comfort to the enemy?

Nowhere To Run

The US has gone after al-Qaeda targets in Somalia today, in a stark reminder that our terrorist enemies will never receive safe harbor (unless the Democrats cut off funds to seek and destroy them).

A U.S. Air Force gunship has conducted a strike against suspected members of al Qaeda in Somalia, CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports exclusively.

The targets included the senior al Qaeda leader in East Africa and an al Qaeda operative wanted for his involvement in the 1998 bombings of two American embassies in Africa, Martin reports. Those terror attacks killed more than 200 people.

The AC-130 gunship is capable of firing thousands of rounds per second, and sources say a lot of bodies were seen on the ground after the strike, but there is as yet, no confirmation of the identities.

The gunship flew from its base in Dijibouti down to the southern tip of Somalia, Martin reports, where the al Qaeda operatives had fled after being chased out of the capital of Mogadishu by Ethiopian troops backed by the United States.

This is good news, and a reminder of why we fight in Iraq and Afghanistan.

And besides, as we say down here in Texas -- some folks just need killing.

Just A Reminder of What Israelis Face

And you wonder why that nation builds a security cordon to prevent murderous attacks upon its people. Read about what happened to these two Israeli teens last summer -- and how they are fighting for justice.

Last June, Hadass and Emunah were standing on the side of Highway 60 at the Rechelim junction near Shilo, Israel, waiting for a southbound ride to take them toward Jerusalem. While they awaited their ride, three conservative, Wahhabi-type, radical Muslims stopped and attempted to kidnap the two girls.

Providentially - I employ the word deliberately here - an IDF officer happened to come along at that time. The officer interfered in the kidnapping, radioing for backup. The conservative, Wahhabi-type, radical Muslims left the scene in a big hurry, but were caught a short distance away without incident when local law enforcement personnel erected a few strategically-placed road blocks.

Investigators later learned that graves had already been dug by the conservative, Wahhabi-type, radical Muslim terrorists to contain the bodies of the two girls. After treatment at a Jerusalem hospital, the two young ladies are back with their friends at school.

Now they want justice. But during the intervening months that have elapsed since the attempted kidnapping last year, all weapons-trading charges have been dropped against the three conservative, Wahhabi-type, radical Muslim terrorists, along with accusations that they were involved in assisting in conservative, Wahhabi-type, radical Muslim terrorism. Only the attempted kidnapping charges remain.

So Haddass has spoken out, demanding justice.

Please remember all the preparations that went into this crime - the daring, the instructions, the way they obtained weapons, rented a car, recruited people, and they even dug a grave! They dug a grave for my friend Emunah and me - everything was ready! And so they set out.

There were a few problems: one of the men quit, the car broke down, but they were determined to murder. They passed by the bus stop where we were sitting, Emunah and I, and then they decided that we were good targets for being murdered.

Why? Because we are weak and can't protect ourselves; they are contemptible murderers who seek out the weak....

So they made two U-turns and came to us. They just didn't realize that G-d loves us.... Does anyone here think that after they serve their punishment, they will be good people? Not at all; they will try to murder again.

My uncle, Kobi Zaga, may G-d avenge his blood, was murdered on a Sabbath night two and a half years ago by a murderer who had been released just two days earlier from Israeli prison. He couldn't hold himself back! These terrorists are murderers, and whoever releases them are their partners in murder....

There is no moral basis for supporting terrorist murderers -- nor is there a moral basis for ever allowing them the opportunity to return to civilized society where they can victimize more innocents. Let the words of young Hadass be a rminder to you of that fact -- and a warning of what could come to this country if we don't remain vigilant, steadfast and resolute in the War on Terror.

Terror Imam Deported

DonÂ’t let the door hit you in the turban on the way out, scumbag.

A Muslim leader from Ohio who was convicted of lying about his involvement with a group the U.S. government designated a terrorist organization has been deported to his native Palestinian territories, immigration authorities said Friday.

Fawaz Damra, 46, was convicted in June 2004 of concealing his ties to Palestinian Islamic Jihad when he applied for U.S. citizenship in 1994.

Damra, who served as imam at one of the Cleveland's largest mosques, was deported on Thursday, said Tim Counts, spokesman for the U.S. Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Earlier, Damra had agreed to be deported to Qatar.

He ought to be headed to Gitmo instead. HereÂ’s hoping the Israelis keep close tabs on him.
