How soon before we will have suicide bombers in our own midst?

I fear we are one teenager-dumped-by-his-girlfriend away from that event.

I suspect that the only reasons they haven't started yet is because American teens are well-fed, and because of Gameboy, X-Box, Playstation, etc.

That's a good idea --- at least counteract the muslim call to follow allah by a Christian or Jewish call to follow Christ and/or God. Nothing should say the Church bells should wait until after the muslim yodeling begins --- they could go off simultaneously.

Don't forget 9-11 ------ we've already had the suicide bombing. At least the first major ---- but there have been many not very publicized attempts ---- on NY subways for example. They aren't coming here to be Americans or to assimilate into Western culture and ways or because the believe in the Constitution ---- they cannot believe in anything but Sharia government.

I would definitely go out and hold up some signs or make some calls to stop that and I don't live anywhere near there!

You can find it in the Koran, it states their intentions crystal clear. Make the world Islamic or kill all who do not convert. It can happen here.

When we were stationed in Saudi Arabia, we kept the air conditioners going full time most of the year. During our first February there, I shut them down and opened the windows. At just about 0445 was "al fajr," the morning call to prayer. From that point on, we kept the ACs running for the next 15 months. It is incredibly annoying.

That's the idea behind this ;don't kid yourself.

The constant Islamic call to prayer 5 times a day , 7 days a week will make the infidel so uncomfortable he will move out.

But who is going to buy in? Property values will fall and more afordable housing will be available for Allah's children who can live in an Islamic ghetto and not have to rub shoulders with the infidel. -Tom

Yep, the President already invites terrorist organizations (like CAIR) over to the WH to "celebrate" Ramadan, so who knows what lies in our future.

And this is in one of the most famous Polish areas in the world.

As one of our most disreputable Islamonazis here on Free Republic once said of Kosovo being Serbia (as stipulated in UN resolutions), "Not no mo'!"

Just don't be surprised if he doesn't refer to the Polish inhabitants being chased from their homes by the criminals as "simply moving to a nicer neighborhood," assuming for a second that he hates the Slavic Christian Poles half as much as he hates the Slavic Christian Serbs, of course.

IT WAS PASSED BY UNANIMOUS VOTE!

Hamtramck Residents To Hear Prayer Broadcasts

Issue Sparks Heated Debate Among Residents

POSTED: 9:13 am EDT April 21, 2004

UPDATED: 9:43 am EDT April 21, 2004

Hamtramck residents will soon be hearing a Muslim call to prayer five times a day following a unanimous vote by the City Council Tuesday night.

The issue of sending out the prayer on a loudspeaker in the city sparked a heated debate among residents.

"If you guys think about it, the Muslim call to prayer is actually a beautiful thing," an unidentified man who supported the issue said during the City Council meeting.

Some residents are opposed to the call to prayer, saying it gives state sponsorship of a religion and it lifts Islam above all other religions in Hamtramck, Local 4 reported.

"I would say that is a distortion," Hamtramck City Councilwoman Karen Majewski said. "We worked very hard to craft this ordinance in such a way that it would cover all means of religious expression."

Resident Maria Radtke called it "one big mess."

"There'll be no peace as far as I'm concerned," Radtke said.

Resident Bob Golen also opposes the call to prayer. He said he is a Christian and does not believe in the tenants of the Muslim faith.

Majewski said the ordinance will allow the city "a way to deal with all religions, not simply the Muslim call to prayer."

The councilwoman also said the amendment to the noise ordinance passed by the City Council "gives us the flexibility to adjust the number of speakers, the direction of the speakers, the level of loudness. So that will all depend on the community response, on the particular neighborhood that the mosque may be in, because we have several mosques, and the particularities of each case."

City Council members may have voted to allow the daily prayer, but they have not yet set a decibel level for the mosques. The council will make the decision at a meeting next week.

The calls are expected to begin in May with broadcasts between the hours of 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.

As for complaints of the noise pollution created by the call to prayer, Majewski said there are other noise issues because Hamtramck is an urban city.

"We have a lot of noise on our streets," Majewski said.

She said there is flexibility within the ordinance to deal with all of the noise problems such as cars, trains and noisy neighbors.

"This ordinance gives us a way, a mechanism, by which to deal with these complaints," Majewski said.

Where's the ACLU when you actually need them???


My guess is that they're paying for the loudspeakers.

If this thing goes through, I propose a march on the city the likes of which this country has never seen. This is our lives and freedom at stake. I think this is the biggest national story there is today.

Local businesses should provide earplugs for their customers.

The store owners could hand out little ear plug carrying cases that go on key chains. They could place ads on the cases.
