The First American Family Killed by Islam (Vanity)
FR ^ | 1/17/2004 | Self

Posted on 01/17/2005 6:53:27 AM PST by jriemer

Outside of FNC, the MSM has been quite silent on the fact that the Armanious family in NJ was the first entire family killed by muslim extremists on the continential US - before or during 911. Those murdered on 911 left spouses and children but in this case, an entire family was wiped out in cold blood. Considering the MSM morbid curiosity for these kinds of things, months of OJ and Scott Peterson being prime examples, you would think that the MSM would jump on the chance to report on something this grisly right in their own back yard but they're not. A husband, a wife and two daughters are gone at the hands of radical Islam and the story is less than ten miles away from the headquarters of three of the MSM broadcast studios but no big story day after day.

They were the first American family killed by Islam. Who's next?

Blue state cover-up.
If Jersey identifies the killing for what it is, they must also accept the fact that this is the first terrorist attack in their state.
Political correctness, diversity and fear of offending mooslims will trump the truth.

NJ is caught in a bind on another front. It's a unpleasant pick between one from column A or B:

A) It is a hate crime (a law they adore) against Christians by Muslims which underminds liberals "why can't we get along atmosphere".

B) It isn't a hate crime which tacitly encourages more attacks upon Christians by Muslims which undermines liberals "why can't we get along atmosphere".

Personally, I agree with the 1892 New York Supreme court ruling that made islam illegal. They could see what is coming!!!

That's why hate crimes laws aren't good enough. Even passing "hate speech" laws wouldn't give the government the power to arrest Americans for not doing or even talking about something- even though they may be thinking something dangerous!

Without religious thought crimes laws what will this country come to?

Funny how the guilty ones always claim racial profiling. They must be members of the democratic party.

"1892 New York Supreme court ruling that made islam illegal"

I haven't heard of anything like that.
Perhaps you're thinking of this:
"1811 case of People v. Ruggles. This is a ruling by the New York Supreme Court. The Chief Justice of the New York Supreme Court was James Kent, author of Commentaries on American Law. He wrote in his opinion, “We are a Christian people…. Christianity, in its enlarged sense, as a religion revealed and taught in the Bible, is not unknown to our law.” "

If, however, there is such a case as you mentioned I'd appreciate the title if you know it.

Agreed, the silence is deafening. There was a case of two homosexuals sodomizing and murdering a teenager (I think it was in Colorado)--the MSM was silent on that one too. But the provided non-stop coverage of the Matthew Shepard case (homosexual student tied to a fence and left to die)--including comparisons of Shepard to Christ in the OpEds. This whole selective reporting is very "1984"ish.

I probably had talked with that man on paltalk. I wonder what his screenname was. I would reinstall paltalk and find out, but it is so trojan/spyware riddled.

On Rush's station here in DC, 630 AM, WMAL, Michael Graham is covering this topic right now.

So far (I just remembered to turn on the radio, not my usual practice when I'm home) I've only heard this one guy castigating Graham for smearing a Billion Muslims around the world, and a woman whose position I can't seem to remember.

Isn't it amazing that the MSM isn't reporting this AT ALL? Even if they don't know for sure that it was done by Muslims, who had issued death threats against the husband/father, you'd think that at least they would report the dang crime.

The Muslims are the terrorists. We can limit our actions to them.

Those that act like pigs get a full helping of slop.

I hope they catch them and then needle them all in the name of their allah. 72 camels await them in their fanatasy world on non-existence. I think we will see more of this type activity. The American Can of Whip-Ass may soon be opened to the sand goons. NSNR

Read Steven Emerson's book Jihad in America. There were several Jewish people killed by Muslims in the 90's. Jihad had already started but no one noticed.

Excellent choice for a weapon. One strike, one kill and no deposit or return. Their scimitars are no match for that weapon of finess. To the Master the negative as well as the Positive.NSNR.

The Dutch filmmaker, Theo van Gogh, was murdered in the same manner, on the street and in broad daylight. The silence from the world of "arts and entertainment" was deafening.

Prayers for the family and the Coptics.

The fate of this family is an insight into why islam won't work in America-at least, the America we know to have been founded on religious freedom and free speech.

I don't think (I hope) America will not tolerate a religious sect that spawns believers who feel entitled to murder anyone who criticizes it. Think of the ramifications, folks.
