6 bodies found after Tijuana shootout

Mexico is falling apart.

6 bodies found after Tijuana shootout - Yahoo! News: "Officials found six bodies Thursday inside a Tijuana house where gunmen took refuge during a shootout with soldiers and police.

Investigators were trying to determine if the bodies belonged to gunmen or kidnaping victims kept at the house, said a spokesman for Baja California state prosecutors who was not authorized to be quoted by name.

Soldiers, state and local police were sent in to help control the three-hour shootout that began when federal agents prepared to raid a house in a Tijuana neighborhood near the U.S. border.

Earlier, Baja California state attorney general Rommel Moreno said in a news release that one assailant was killed and four police wounded in the shootout, that comes amid a surge in violence across the border from San Diego."

Contraceptives allowed in Islam, says fatwa

Islam: More rules than any other religion.

They think that Islam is the most popular religion because it is growing the fastest. I think rules against NOT having children might have a greater influence than reasons to convert. Or maybe it it the rules against leaving Islam if you value your life. Or a combination.


NDTV.com: Contraceptives allowed in Islam, says fatwa: "Contradicting the popular belief that methods to control child birth are unlawful in Islam, a leading Islamic seminary has issued a fatwa allowing use of contraceptives by Muslims to keep a gap between two children.

''Yes, it is allowable to temporarily use contraceptives,'' says a recent fatwa by Islamic seminary Darul Uloom Deoband in response to a query whether one can use contraception to avoid the next child.

Clerics at Uloom's Darul ifta, the body which issues fatwas, says contraceptives are permissible so that ''the children are properly nourished''.

However, the Islamic body doesn't say anything about the permanent methods of contraceptions like vasectomy or tubectomy.

Supporting the Deoband's fatwa, prominent Muslim body Jamia-Ulema-e-Hind's spokesman Abdul Hameed Nomani, also an Islamic scholar, says: ''Such a method can be adopted. It is permissible.''

Citing a recent government report, he said more than 40 per cent Indian Muslims use contraceptives.

However, Nomani termed permanent contraception as ''unlawful'' (haram) and against Islamic law."

French Muslims getting more devout, poll shows

More Islamists in France. They have been afraid to confront Islamists when they were 10% of the population, what will happen now?

French Muslims getting more devout, poll shows : Religion General: "A growing number of French Muslims say they are practising believers, according to a survey for the Catholic daily Le Croix made public on Thursday. In the poll, 70 per cent of respondents said they adhered to the Islamic laws on fasting during the holy month of Ramadan. In 2001, the figure had stood at 60 per cent.

In addition, 70 per cent said they were believers in the faith, and one third of those said they practised it. Of those asked, 39 per cent said they prayed daily, compared to 33 per cent in 2001.

The poll also found that the number of Muslims that take part in Friday prayers has grown from 16 per cent in 1994 to 23 per cent in 2007.

The survey confirmed that France's Muslims are far more devout than the rest of the French population, which is becoming less religious."

Netherlands: Call to abolish Muslim schools

I wonder why the Islamic schools think they can ignore the Rule of Law in the Western nations? Is it because the West traditionally caves in on every demand anyway? Or could it be that the West is so weak that the Islamists know that they are going to rule there soon anyway?

Either idea stinks.

Islam in Europe: "Netherlands: Call to abolish Muslim schools

Nahed Selim, feminist, author and Muslim, calls to abolish the Muslim education system since it's predominated by radical Islam. Selim (54) worries about orthodox radicalism in education in Islamic schools. Therefore she wants to stop government subsidies of private schools in general. 'The Muslim schools won't come back, the Christian ones will.' Most of the 45 Islamic elementary schools and the two association for advanced Islamic education in Amsterdam and Rotterdam are characterized by administrative ignorance and financial chaos. State Secretary of Education Sharon Dijksma had a study done and depending on the outcome will close schools which do not fulfill the legal requirements.

Nahed Selim thinks it's not enough. 'By far in most Islamic schools radical Islam has deeply penetrated into the contents of the instruction. A book like 'the way of the Muslim' (De Weg van de Moslim), which was widely condemned by the politicians in 2004 and should be removed from the mosque, belongs to the standard package of textbooks.'

'De weg van de moslim' (which argues for the killing of homos, infidels and obstinate women) made the news after AIVD reports about the Tawheed mosque in Amsterdam. According to Selim the books are still being used in a great number of mosques and the Islamic College of Amsterdam."

Counterterrorism Experts Endorse Upcoming Symposium

Jihad Watch: "Counterterrorism Experts Endorse Upcoming Symposium

An announcement from America's Truth Forum:

Internationally recognized counterterrorism experts and nationally recognized pro-US advocates are endorsing the third in a national series of educational symposiums on the threat of radical Islam as providing critical information that every American should consume.

America's Truth Forum, in association with Basics Project, is proud to announce the third in the original national symposium series on the threat of radical Islam, Exposing the Threat of Islamist Terrorism, February 1 & 2 in the Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas.

Caroline Glick, Deputy Managing Editor, Jerusalem Post & Senior Fellow for the Center for Security Policy:

“As the 2008 presidential elections heat up it is clear that America and the world need for the American people to be sufficiently educated about the dangers of the 21st century that arise from the global jihad... America’s Truth Forum upcoming symposium, “Exposing the threat of Islamist terrorism,” will provide an essential service to the public... By bringing experts from a wide variety of fields and professional backgrounds together under one roof, America’s Truth Forum & Basics Project will provide the public with an opportunity to learn about what the media doesn’t report...Only by understanding these dangers will the American people be able to ensure that the next President will be a leader who understands and is committed to defending the United States and the rest of the Free World against the threat posed by the forces of jihad at home and around the world.”

Dr. Harvey Kushner, Chairman of Criminal Justice Dept. of Long Island University, best-selling author, advisor to the FBI and FAA:

“There is no shortage of blogs addressing the dangers of our Islamic enemies; however, there are just two organizations, America’s Truth Forum and Basics Project bringing the major issues related to Islamic terrorism directly to the people. Their meetings bring important, unvarnished information directly to the people impacted the most – the general public. The latter has been fed a varnished, politically correct, explanation of terrorism, not the real issue – the destruction of our ability to identify our enemy: the substitution of our Judeo-Christian values for Sharia law, ATF and Basics Project are the only organizations I know that visit different parts to allow people to interact directly with experts. This traveling road show must continue.”

Robert Spencer, Director of Jihad Watch, best-selling author and expert on radical Islam:

“The symposiums produced by America’s Truth Forum and Basics Project are one of the few occasions during which Americans can – without politically correct trimming and distortion – learn the truth about the nature and magnitude of the jihad threat and what we can do to resist Islamic supremacism. At a time when both liberal and conservative media figures resist telling these truths, whether out of ignorance, fear or both, these events serve as a time when some of the leading spokesmen of the counter-jihad movement can be heard at length.”

G.Gordon Liddy, nationally syndicated radio show host and pro-Western advocate:

"Were it not absolutely necessary that I be in Washington, I would absolutely attend the forthcoming America's Truth Forum/Basics Project event in Dallas. I know Caroline Glick and Frank Gaffney personally and would never miss a presentation of either of them. In Dallas you'll get to hear them both, on subjects of the utmost importance to our nation and to you. Be there!"

Capt. Larry Bailey, USN (ret.) and Chairman of the Gathering of Eagles:

“...nothing less is at stake than Western Civilization. That sounds over the top, but if one reads the news, it becomes clear that radical Islam is the greatest threat the West has confronted in centuries – Naziism and Communism notwithstanding. The Dallas symposium enables Americans to understand the nature of the threat and how to combat it.”

Don’t miss the seminal educational event February 1st & 2nd in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area: Exposing the Threat of Islamist Terrorism.

Man named Jihad caught driving with loaded gun, tazer

Nice name! I hope he spends the rest of his life contemplating Jihad from a small cell. For a very short life.

Man named Jihad caught driving with loaded gun, tazer | The Daily Telegraph: "A MAN who had ammunition in his pocket and a loaded pistol on the back seat of his car when he was pulled over told police he was, 'going hunting with my uncle'.

The gun was ready to fire when police pulled over Mahmud Jihad, 26, in Rooty Hill on Tuesday.

Also in a bag in the back seat was a tazer, Mount Druitt local court heard yesterday.

A further three pistols - including a Russian semi-automatic - were found when police raided Jihad's Shalvey home later the same day.

Along with the cache of guns and ammunition found in the bedroom of the builder's labourer, was $59,550 in cash.

Jihad yesterday faced court on 15 charges, including having a firearm in a public place.

The court heard Jihad was sentenced to 12 months' jail in 2005 for similar offences."

Jihadists seize fort from Pakistani troops

Even the Pakistani military is embracing martyrdom?

With huge bands of terrorists working together to capture forts, they are moving beyond terrorism. If US forces had been aiding in the defense, the terrorists would have all been slaughtered like the pigs they are. Still, losing seven guys while killing about fifty is not a bad trade. May they rest in peace.

I pray that Pakistan's nuclear bombs are still safe. Maybe the US will have to do a raid on them to remove them to safety at Fort Knox.


Jihad Watch: Jihadists seize fort from Pakistani troops: "Hundreds of Islamist militants overran a Pakistani paramilitary fort near the Afghan border Wednesday, sparking fierce fighting that left seven troops and up to 50 rebels dead, the army said.

Another 20 troops were missing after insurgents armed with rocket launchers and assault rifles blasted their way into the remote outpost at Sararogha town in the rugged South Waziristan tribal district.

The area is said to be a stronghold of Baitullah Mehsud, a tribal warlord with alleged links to Al-Qaeda who is accused by the government of masterminding the assassination of opposition leader Benazir Bhutto.

'Around midnight 400 miscreants attacked the Frontier Corps at Sararogha. The fort was captured by militants, we are taking stock of the situation,' chief military spokesman Major General Athar Abbas told AFP.

'There are reports of 40 to 50 dead miscreants, while seven personnel embraced martyrdom.'"

Debating the Root Causes of Suicide Terrorism

Wow. More proof that it is easy to control statistics to make them say almost anything, even the opposite of the true figures. Go and read the full study

lgf: Debating the Root Causes of Suicide Terrorism: "University of Chicago political scientist Robert Pape has been in the forefront of those arguing that suicide terrorism is neither an act of desperation nor a result of Islamist ideology, but a carefully measured means to achieve a political end. It’s an argument that’s been used by many multiculturalists (and by Islamists themselves) as a way to absolve Islam itself of any responsibility for this barbaric practice. But in an interesting piece for Middle East Quarterly, Jonathan Fine says Pape cooked the data for his study: Contrasting Secular and Religious Terrorism."

British Muslim computer geek, son of diplomat, revealed as Al Qaeda's top cyber terrorist

Proof that AQs strategy of posting to the internet is working. This is also more proof that the terrorists are NOT poor idiots. They are recruiting many desperate people from that group, but it is the educated elites who are running the show for the terror groups.

Not that the Left will admit that they are wrong about their stereotypes.


British Muslim computer geek, son of diplomat, revealed as Al Qaeda's top cyber terrorist | the Daily Mail: "Tsouli arrived in London in 2001 with his father, a Moroccan diplomat. He studied IT at a college in central London and was quickly radicalised by images of the war in Iraq posted on the internet.

By 2003 he had already begun posting his own material including a manual on computer hacking and a year later had moved on to publishing extremist images and al Qaeda propaganda on the web.

It is claimed al Qaeda leaders in Iraq spotted Tsouli's work and took the decision to recruit him, using his expertise to post their own extremist videos to a wider audience.

In 2005, Tsouli became administrator for the web forum al-Ansat, used by 4,500 extremists to communicate with each other, sharing such practical information as how to make explosives and how to get to Iraq to become a suicide bomber.

But the enterprise had become so huge, it began to attract the attention of cyber-trackers who monitor the internet for extremists, leading to Tsouli's arrest."

We pay the enemy and America’s corporations profit

It is very disturbing that the terrorists are being supported by so many multinational corporations. Here is an except:

We pay the enemy and America’s corporations profit » 9/11 Families for a Safe & Strong America: "General Electric has admitted that it has contracts in Syria and Iran for electric power plants, oil and gas, lighting, and medical equipment (that latter is humanitarian stuff not subject to sanctions and no one is citing them). GE claims that none of it is being used for military purposes by “Iranian forces” or “Syrian forces.” Here is an excerpt from GE’s response to a 2006 inquiry by the SEC, Office of Global Security Risk:

“In addition to diagnostic, monitoring and life science medical products, our products and services that are sold or otherwise distributed include power generation systems and parts, oil & gas equipment, power control/supply and lighting products in Iran, each of which is sold or distributed pursuant to legal obligations entered into prior to February 2005. We sell our products and services directly and through distributors located in Iran and elsewhere. Our customers include private companies, government-owned electrical utilities and refineries, the Ministry of Oil, public/private hospitals and universities. To the best of our knowledge, none of the products or services we provide has been, or could be, employee in any military application or used by the armed forces of Iran for strategic, tactical or training purposes.�"

America's Secret Army

Murphy's Law: America's Secret Army: "America's Secret Army

January 8, 2008: Most American men are unaware that they are in the army, or, as described by the Militia Act of 1903 (popularly known as the Dick Act), the unorganized militia. The main purpose of the Dick Act was to sort out over a century of confusion over the relationship between the state militias (now known as the National Guard) and the federal forces. The 1903 law was the first of many laws hammered out to create the system now in use. But in the last century, not much attention has been paid to the little known 'unorganized militia' angle. This force contained every able-bodied adult male who was not a part of the organized militia. The 1903 law legalized the right not to be part of the organized militia, because a 1792 law had mandated that every adult male be part of the militia. The problem was, most men didn't want to be bothered. To deal with this, state governors created two classes of militia; paid (who trained and were armed and organized into units) and unorganized (everyone else.)"

Republicans Transform

HAHAHA! What a great idea! .

IMAO: Republicans Transform: "Posted by Frank J. at 11:28 AM
'I'm ready to debate Obama!'
A reader of the Corner sent in an idea that I think was a pretty good suggestion: The Republicans stop their feuding and their fighting and combine announcing Fred Thompson as president, Mitt Romney as Vice President, McCain as Secretary of Defense, and Giuliani as Secretary of Homeland Security. This is a cool idea. Now, anyone who is a not a moron likes everything about Fred Thompson, so he'd be a great president. Mitt Romney is a conservative in training, so he'd be good for vice president. The only thing McCain is right on is the war, so why not put him a position where that's the only view that matters. And Giuliani would be a great Secretary of Homeland Security if he would just prove his bona fides on illegal immigration by beating a Mexican drug smuggler to death with a Maglite -- something I'm sure he'd be more than willing to do.

In addition, it could be announced that Mike Huckabee will be the White House Press Secretary where he can use his talking skills for good instead of evil. And Ron Paul could be made a security guard at the National Archives so he can make sure no one messes with the Constitution.

If Republicans announced a ticket with all the frontrunners on it, wouldn't they be unstoppable? They'd be takin"

Britain's Muslim Gang Culture: Coming Soon to a Town Near You?

Ah, it is so nice to know that Islam is the Religion of Peace. If they were not so Peaceful they might prove dangerous. Of course, the appologetics also like to say that Islam does not accept forced conversions. Just like Mohammad never rode an army up to a village and demand they convert or die. He was the Prophet of Peace and Tolerance.

May the Peace of Allah avoid you. May the Peace of Jesus protect you.


Britain's Muslim Gang Culture: Coming Soon to a Town Near You?: "
The “Muslim Boys”

On Wednesday January 4, 2006 a black mother gave evidence at an inquest. At Southwark Coroners Court in southeast London, Ruth Marriott spoke of the last days of her son Adrian Marriott. He had been an accountancy student, but was also a gang member, belonging to the Peel Den Crew. He was shot five times in the head on June 8, 2004, a few weeks before his 21st birthday. His body was found in parkland off Barrington Road in Brixton.

52-year-old Ruth Marriott told the inquest: 'We heard the shooting. We heard gun fire. The thought did strike me that Adrian could be involved, but it was a fleeting thought. Then we heard from police the following evening what had happened. Adrian was told on the Sunday prior to his death that he would be killed if he did not become a Muslim by the Wednesday, which was the day he died.'

John Sampson, the coroner, asked if her son had taken the threat seriously. She answered: 'I do not think he did.' Sampson later declared that Adrian Marriot had been unlawfully killed.

Ruth Marriott last saw her son on the day"

Confirmed: Barack Obama Practiced Islam

It is not much of a story, but Obama DID attend the mosque with his father. He WAS listed as a Muslim on his school papers. According to Sharia Law Obama is a Muslim because it is illegal to leave Islam. If your parent is Islamic, then you are too. Leaving is illegal and carries a death sentence.

Of course, the Christian church he loves to talk about is not much of an improvement since it denies being American. You should check that out.

In a time when religion is becoming key to the world dynamic, it is ludacris to have a lapsed Muslim and bigoted Christian in a position of power. He should be marginalized and shunned.


FrontPage Magazine: "Confirmed: Barack Obama Practiced Islam
By Daniel Pipes
FrontPageMagazine.com | Monday, January 07, 2008

In a recent analysis, “Was Barack Obama a Muslim?” I surveyed available evidence and found it suggests “Obama was born a Muslim to a non-practicing Muslim father and for some years had a reasonably Muslim upbringing under the auspices of his Indonesian step-father.” In response, David Brock’s organization, Media Matters for America (MMfA), which calls itself a “progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media,” has criticized one of my sources of information.

MMfA contends in “Daniel Pipes relied on disputed LA Times article to revive Obama-Muslim falsehood,” that “key aspects” of a March 16, 2007, Los Angeles Times article I quoted were later challenged by another newspaper account, “History of schooling distorted,” by Kim Barker in the Chicago Tribune on March 25."

Multiculturalism is breeding intolerance - Telegraph

It is great to see that the politicians are finally seeing the disaster that their policies have begat. It might be time to abort these disgusting policies like a Leftist would a child.

Multiculturalism is breeding intolerance - Telegraph: "Multiculturalism is breeding intolerance

By Philip Johnston
Last Updated: 12:01am GMT 07/01/2008

It has taken a long time to happen, but at last an authoritative and senior establishment figure has pointed to the elephant in the room. Before the Bishop of Rochester's article yesterday in The Sunday Telegraph, the debate about immigration focused almost exclusively on who benefits financially. We have tiptoed around its effect on our society and culture. Even the somewhat belated recognition by ministers that newcomers should show a commitment to British values and demonstrate a knowledge of English tends to be couched in economic terms and ones favourable to the immigrants themselves - that they will get a job more easily and their lives will be enhanced if they are more integrated.

Multiculturalism is breeding intolerance
'Few politicians have been willing to question the impact of a growing Muslim population'

However, few politicians have been willing to do what Michael Nazir-Ali has done, which is to question the impact of a growing Muslim population upon the very fabric of the nation, turning it within half a century into a multi-faith and multicultural land."

The Arab 'Right of Return' to Israel

Excellent historical study of why the Palestinians lie when they say they are from "Palestine"

Family Security Matters: "The Arab 'Right of Return' to Israel

Rachel Neuwirth

A media and propaganda campaign has been under way since the Annapolis 'peace' conference to legitimize the longstanding demands made on behalf of the Palestinian 'Arab refugees' – meaning in practice the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of refugees – from the 1948 Arab-Israel war of 60 years ago, for their return to their ancestral homes and the return of all their ancestors' former land and property in what is now Israel. The Palestinian National Authority, headed by Mahmoud Abbas, and the Palestinian Liberation Organization, founded by Yasser Arafat, have always made this demand a sine qua non for 'peace' with Israel, as do all of the Palestinian terrorist-political groups (Fatah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, etc.). And the Palestinian Arab leadership continues to stand by this demand today, promising their supporters that they will never agree to 'peace' without its acceptance by Israel."

Al-Qaeda's white army of terror

Now the strip searches of non-Arabs is finally starting to make a little sense. What a pity. Darn terrorists are still basing the terrorism on religion, however. This mean we should be able to put a piece of pork at the door to key targets and keep the Muslims out.

Al-Qaeda's white army of terror - Scotsman.com News: "Since the 7/7 and 21/7 London bombings, police and intelligence services have had considerable success in identifying, disrupting and stopping extremist plots. As a result, groups such as al-Qaeda, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Harkat-ul-Mujahideen have been forced to change tack. Converting white non-Muslims has been one response.

The trend is well established in the United States. American-born Adam Gadahn is one of the FBI's top 10 most-wanted terrorists after converting to Islam and rising through al-Qaeda's ranks to become a prominent spokesman.

One British security source last night told Scotland on Sunday: 'There could be anything up to 1,500 converts to the fundamentalist cause across Britain. They pose a real potential danger to our domestic security because, obviously, these people blend in and do not raise any flags.

'The exact figure of those who have converted to Islam and turned to terror is not precisely known. Not everyone who converts becomes radicalised and it may be that just two-fifths go down that path, but it remains a significant and dangerous problem.'"

Plot to kill Queen foiled

God save the Queen!
I guess He did. Thank God.

Hmm. Terrorists posing as Media? I already thought half of them might be related. Just more proof.

Daily Express: The World's Greatest Newspaper :: News / Showbiz :: Plot to kill Queen foiled: "Two huge outside broadcast vans belonging to the Uganda Broadcasting Corporation were seized after a tip-off from intelligence agents.

As a result, UBC was unable to transmit live pictures of key summit events, including the Queen’s historic address to the Ugandan parliament on November 22.

Dr Ruhakana Rugunda, the Uganda Minister of Internal Affairs, said: “We received information that a terrorist group linked to Al Qaeda, the Allied Democratic Forces, was planning to carry out terrorist activities at the Commonwealth meeting. The security services in Uganda neutralised these threats.”"

Anti-war Soros funded Iraq study

What a shock to learn the Left is funding lies of the Left.

Anti-war Soros funded Iraq study - Times Online: "The Lancet study was commissioned by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and led by Les Roberts, an associate professor and epidemiologist at Columbia University. He reportedly opposed the war from the outset.

His team surveyed 1,849 homes at 47 sites across Iraq, asking people about births, deaths and migration in their households.

Professor John Tirman of MIT said this weekend that $46,000 (£23,000) of the approximate £50,000 cost of the study had come from Soros’s Open Society Institute.

Roberts said this weekend: “In retrospect, it was probably unwise to have taken money that could have looked like it would result in a political slant. I am adamant this could not have affected the outcome of the research.”"
