“Afghans must command foreign troops”: state newspaper

Moe’s Jihad News

* That’ll be the day! Exactly because of our trusted ‘allies’ Bin Laden got away…

To defeat Taliban militants, foreign troops led by NATO and the U.S. military in Afghanistan should come under the command of the Afghan government, otherwise the war will drag on, a government-owned newspaper said on Tuesday.

Imam Ahmed sez  “We are being mentally tortured,” 

Sheik yer’mami sez: “time to pack up, imam. The desert is full of pretty camels this time of year…”

The New York Times

 

“We are being mentally tortured,” Imam Ahmed said at his mosque, an anonymous building that looks more like an apartment complex than a house of worship. “The cartoons are an insult against Islam, an attempt by right-wing forces in this country to get a rise out of the Muslim community and so portray us as against Danish values.”

Soren Krarup, a retired priest and leading voice in the party, said the Muslim response to the cartoons showed that Islam was not compatible with Danish customs. “Muslims who come here reject our culture,” he said. “Muslim immigration is a way for Muslims to conquer us, just as they have done for the past 1,400 years.”

*****
AHMEDABAD/SURAT: On the morning after the Ahmedabad serial blasts, The Times of India ran the headline — Bangalore, Ahmedabad. Who’s Next? The answer is here. With two explosives-packed cars and 18 bombs being discovered across Surat, it’s clear that terrorists had planned a deadly serial attack on the diamond capital of India. ( Watch )        

Gujarat’s second largest city would have been sucked into another round of tragedy had the terrorists succeeded in blowing up what appears to be at least three dozen bombs — between the incendiary material found in WagonRs on Sunday and the assembled bombs discovered in the densely populated city on Tuesday. Surat is home to a Rs 70,000 crore diamond industry.

US: Ignorance about the Enemy’s Ideology is the Problem

In fighting Jihad, America’s greatest challenge remains understanding and confronting the ideology that provides the basis for Jihadist terrorism. Efforts to clearly define this enemy ideology recently have been undermined by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC), and the State Department in promoting a “terror lexicon” that recommends federal government employees avoid terms such as “jihad,” “jihadist,” “Islamist,” ry=mujahideen&v%3Aproject=clusty-gov&v%3Apersonality=&v%3Asources=911″>“mujahideen,” and “caliphate” when addressing issues involving terrorism. The argument made by the DHS, NCTC, and others is that the use of such terms will aid in the “recruitment” of Muslims to join terrorist organizations, or will alternatively provide “legitimacy” to religious aspects of terrorist efforts.

Report: Iran now has 6000 centrifuges for uranium

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran’s president said Saturday his country now possesses 6,000 centrifuges, a significant increase in its nuclear program that is certain to further rankle the United States and others who fear Tehran is intent on developing weapons.

The new figure is double the 3,000 uranium-enriching machines Iran had previously said it was operating.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s announcement, reported by the semi-official Fars news agency, comes a week after the U.S. reversed course in negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program by sending a top American diplomat to participate in talks between Tehran and world powers.

Vancouver — At last, a Western diplomat – Chris Alexander, a former Canadian ambassador now serving as a United Nations special envoy in Kabul – has had enough of the political correctness to publicly acknowledge that Pakistan, through its Inter-Services Intelligence agency, is supporting Taliban insurgents in Afghanistan (UN Envoy Backs Karzai Against Pakistan – front page, July 28). “Otherwise we really are pretending that Niagara Falls doesn’t flow.”

UK Muslims in Taqiyya Frenzy: "Infidels, stop spilling the beans, or else…!"

Poll results finding that 1/3 of Muslims support murder in the name of religion are a result of “vague” and “misleading” questions, which were “willfully misinterpreted,” say Muslims

* Related: Malaysia Plans New Taqiyya Propaganda Centre to Promote Positive Image Of Islam

Muslims are religiously obligated to protect Islam from the kuffar by lying (taqiyya) by spreading misinformation about Islam like “Islam is a Religion of Peace”,  by engaging in deceit, detraction and deflecting away from the ugly reality of their belief-system. Whenever somebody spills the beans, (apostates like  Wafa Sultan or Ayaan Ali Hirsi   immediately come to mind who must be killed because they are seen as traitors,) you’ll immediately find a whole army of spin-meisters  come crawling out from under their rocks telling   irritated infidels that its all not like that, that we got it all wrong, that Islam is really all peace etc. etc. etc. Unfortunately they (nearly) always find enough suckers to buy it.

Hugh Fitzgerald puts it in perspective:

The questions were “vague” and “misleading”? But the questions were not given, as some reports say, to the uneducated and the illiterate, those who did not know English. The questions were asked of Muslims attending university, and who could reasonably be expected to be the least likely group of Muslims to have misunderstood the questions, to have been misled by them, even if we were to pretend to take seriously such an obviously tendentious charge about the poll that is now being made by Muslims, stung at the way Infidels are reacting, and rightly.

Muslims blame the right wing’s “own tawdry obsession with Islam.” “Muslims under renewed attack in UK”, from Mathaba,

The National Union of Students (NUS) has joined Muslims in criticizing a report on ‘Islam on Campus’, while a new Channel Four television documentary on the Holy Qu’ran has been widely accused of being ‘misleading and defamatory’.

Indonesia: Muslims storm Christian school, injuring 265 students

*  Why? Who knows what really happened. According to one news report is was a radical imam in a mosque who incited the violence. Another story says  a Christian was accused of stealing a motorcycle from a Muslim. Here is yet another story:

While trying to chase a mouse into the street, a Christian student threw a slipper against a house owned by a local Muslim. The Muslim homeowner, enraged, kicked and punched the student. A crowd gathered. Rumors flew. “Many students suffered various injuries to the head. Others were burnt by Molotov cocktails.”

Jakarta (AsiaNews) – Police evacuated the Christian Theological Arastamar Institute (STT SETIA) which is located in an eastern district of the Indonesian capital after it suffered damages during clashes between Christians and Muslims over the week-end. At least 1,500 students were moved to nearby police headquarters and a local Christian-based political party. The situation remains critical and further violence between opposite factions cannot be ruled out….Last night hundreds of residents from the village of Kampung Pulo had taken up arms threatening to storm the school after being instigated by an imam at a local mosque who claimed that a bunch of Christian gangsters were coming to “protect” the school after it was attacked on Saturday by a Muslim mob, causing damage to the building and hurting hundreds.

Leon de Winter, 54, is a Dutch writer and best-selling author living in Bloemendaal, near Amsterdam, and in Los Angeles. He latest novel, “The Right of Return,” is a current best-seller in the Netherlands. A German translation is set for publication in autumn 2009 by Diogenes Verlag.

SPIEGEL INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR LEON DE WINTER

 

‘The Europeans Are Chasing Illusions’

Dutch author Leon de Winter talks with SPIEGEL about his new novel, which is set in 2024, the threats mounting against Israel and the assimilation of Muslims in Europe.

SPIEGEL: Mr. de Winter, your new book — “The Right of Return” — is a novel, but it actually describes a political vision. In the book, it is the year 2024, and Israel has shrunk to just a few square kilometers around Tel Aviv, which is surrounded by enemies. Are you simply playing with some ideas here or is this a serious prediction?

Israelis in Jerusalem following a suicide attack that involved a bulldozer on July 2.

 

Leon de Winter: Both. Israel is menaced by two threats. On the one hand, by the hatred of its enemies, which today is primarily stirred up by Iran, and on the other hand, by the erosion spreading throughout Israeli society. There are three groups that have little in common: the Orthodox Jews, the Israeli Arabs and the secular Jews, who currently make up the majority of the population. But this majority is dwindling. The conflict between these three lifestyles is every bit as much of a threat — if not even more dangerous — to the existence of Israel as its outside menaces.

SPIEGEL: Does this mean you’re afraid that Israel, as a predominately secular Jewish state, could soon be history?

De Winter: I am not a prophet. When I was young, I really wanted to be a prophet, sometimes even the Messiah. But that is what all Jewish boys at a certain age want to be. They all wake up one morning and are absolutely positive: I am the Messiah! Who else would they be? And then they have to attend school, and reality catches up with them. I don’t disseminate messages; I tell stories about individuals. On the other hand, you cannot tell stories about Israel in the year 2024 without writing about politics. That just doesn’t work.

India: the backlash, that dreaded backlash..!!

Gujarat Muslims hope for no Hindu backlash after bombings

* Gee, its hard to be a Muslim: you do your best to follow your religion and at last you succeed to “strike terror in the hearts in of the unbelievers” and then, oh shocks, horror: these filthy kuffar might just wizen up and do the same to you, unfair, isn’t it? There should be a law against it, sharia law!

Kaleej Times

AHMEDABAD, India – After serial bombings killed dozens of people here Muslim housewife Tahira Bi hopes history will not repeat itself in India’s western state of Gujarat, where memories of Hindu rage are still fresh.

With the city of Ahmedabad hit by blasts claimed by a little-known Islamist group, the spectre of a fresh outbreak of communal violence or revenge attacks on Muslims is at the forefront of concerns.

“I first saw Hindu-Muslim riots when I was 10 years old. Then again in 2002. I have no fear any more,” Bi said at her home in the communally-sensitive Naroda-Patiya residential area, where many Muslims were killed in riots six years ago.

“How long are we going to live scared and running, like cats and dogs? What has to happen will happen, but we have to go on,” said the mother of six who is in her 40s.

UN notes that Gaza has world's highest jobless rate, blames Israel

* When you breed generations of zombies and Jew-hating assassins, is it any wonder that such a population is unable to produce anything of value?

* The Abomination of the Desolation

* THE UNITED NUTTERS: TURNING REALITY ON ITS HEAD

Remember when, during the Gaza pullout, former World Bank President James Wolfenson, Mortimer Zuckerman and others raised $14 million to buy the Gaza greenhouses and give them to the Palestinians? At that time the New York Times reported that his call for money was received enthusiastically by the American Jewish community: “Within 48 hours, Mr. Zuckerman said, he had his $14 million. And the Palestinians had a shot at inheriting relatively intact the greenhouses whose vegetables and flowers have been a major source of Israeli export income, and, not incidentally, about 3,500 desperately needed Palestinian jobs.”

They “had a shot.” And what did they do with that shot? Palestinian jihadists destroyed some of the greenhouses. They looted others. They used some for smuggling tunnels.

But the unemployment rate in Gaza? Israel’s fault, of course!

“U.N. Says Gaza Has World Highest Jobless Rate,” from Israel National News, July 28 (thanks to DW):

(IsraelNN.com) Unemployment in the Gaza region stands at 45 percent, the highest in the world, according to a report issued by the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration. It noted that nearly all of Gaza’s factories have shut down in the past several years. The unemployment rate in Judea and Samaria was estimated at 25 percent.The report blamed Israel’s closure of the Gaza crossings and restrictions of fuel as causes for the disastrous state of the economy. It did not note that the Gaza economy was flourishing before the Oslo War broke out almost eight years ago.
