In Islam, lying or omissions for the 'greater good,' according to a strict or radical Islam/Islamist philosophy is not only acceptable, it is holy and blessed work. It is called al-Takeyya (or al-Taqiyya) and is a strategy outlined in the Hadiths and supported by various interpretations of some of the Suras in the Koran. We have just seen it in action and most people never even caught the whiff of mental ether the Islamists were pouring into the airways of the already comatose and choking non-Islamist world.
Al-Takeyya is a policy whereby a Muslim may lie, deceive or omit critical truths if it promotes the spreading of Islam AND the conquest of the non-Muslim world. According to William P. Welty, Ph.D., al-Takeyya/Taqiyya is:
"The Islamic principle of lying for the sake of Allah. Falsehoods told to prevent denigration of Islam, to protect oneself, or to promote the cause of Islam are sanctioned by the Qur'an, including lying under penalty of perjury in testimony before the United States Congress, lying or making distorted statements to the media such as claiming that Islam is a religion of peace and deceiving fellow Muslims when the one lying has deemed them to be apostates." (1)
And here is the definition from an Islam encyclopedia website:
"The word "al-Taqiyya" literally means: "Concealing or disguising one's beliefs, convictions, ideas, feelings, opinions, and/or strategies..." (2)
Now here's where the latest Islamist sneak maneuver of al Takeyya/Taqiyya comes into play. The Islamic Commission of Spain issued a decree against al-Qaeda terrorist leader Osama bin Laden. They did this in response to the bombing of a Madrid train last year by al Qaeda.
Mansur Escudero, head of the Federation of Islamic Religious Entities, called on clerics to formally condemn terrorism and pray for all terror victims. He went on to state, ''The terrorist acts of Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda organization ... which result in the death of civilians, such as women and children ... are totally prohibited and are the object of strong condemnation within Islam.''
Sounds good so far.
But let's examine what this man did not say, as well as the timing of his little media-sensation fatwa.
This fatwa was timed to coincide with the 1-year anniversary of the bombing in Madrid. Sure, several hundred people died, but this is not the first time that hundreds, nay, thousands of people have died at the hands of Muslims merely because they weren't Muslim.
Therefore, one must ask why was there no such fatwa issued in the aftermath of 9-11? And why has no fatwa about the "...death of civilians, such as women and children'' ever been issued regarding the thousands upon thousands of Jewish/Israeli victims of genocidal terror ever been issued?
I will tell you why. This is al-Takeyya/Taqiyya at its most devious and deceptive. And the key word here is 'civilians.'
In radical Islam (Islamism), any Jew living in Israel is not considered either 'innocent' or a 'civilian.' Nor were the people living and working in America on 9-11. Islamists consider the 'Great Satan -- America,' and the 'Little Satan -- Israel,' to be enemy combatants. And this includes every man, woman or child, even babes in arms, even sleeping or in school or playing in playgrounds. This includes any and all who are not Islamists and who oppose being forced to kneel down and pay homage to Allah or his followers. In particular, Christians (whom they call 'Crusaders'), and Jews.
This also includes those of us who refuse to allow the Islamists to insidiously inject their politico-religious dogma into our way of life. And this especially includes Israel, whom the Islamists view as a polluting force in their quest for 'Arab unity' and a Judenrein Middle East.
So the fatwa issued by this Muslim cleric living in Spain was meant to put the free and civilized world into yet another coma. He was hoping we would see this supposedly 'peaceful and tolerant' religious edict and sing the praises of Islam and remind each other how it is a 'peaceful' religion, even though the word 'Islam' also means 'to submit,' and our utter and complete submission is what they are working towards.
The crafter of this latest religious edict, so proudly trumpeted to the world, has achieved nothing more than a clumsy attempt to delude us into thinking that Islamism is really nice and honorable and loving and peaceful. It is also meant to deceive us into believing that even though such edicts were never issued -- and will never be issued -- regarding Americans or Israelis, these particular Muslims are mainstream moderates.
Camel cakes! We are now familiar with the ploy of lying, omissions and deceit as sanctioned by al-Takeyya/Taqiyya. And some of us are not in a humanist/liberal feel-good coma like lambs going to the slaughter. And we will continue to alert you to the deceptions used by the Islamists.
The lesson to be learned here is not to look for what is said, but what is deliberately not said. If anything, this fatwa, by its omissions and timing (or lack thereof) has simply reinforced the fact that the Islamists do not see Israel or Judeo-Christian America as 'innocent.' It has reaffirmed that they see us all as ripe for deceit and murder in the name of Allah.
It's Former Dodgers frog (see post #93)
He's 'Dodging' us at the moment....but we as conservative women are very patient, are we not Jan?
Hey Fred....only ONE frog per thread, remember. That's the rules. And I got it!
Thanks FD!
9:47:56.......Jan, we posted at exactly the same second?
Yikes Fred, only a coincidence...I'm sure.
Jan is in Colorado and I'm in Florida.
Of course, we are both blessed as sisters in Christ.
Yeah, conservative women always get their little green frogs. It's when they kiss them they get into trouble. Wedding bells, children, housework...and a Prince who comes home every night and says, 'what, don't tell me your're on that silly computer again?

LOL, my Prince is no longer surprised to find me on that silly computer....he takes it in stride, God love him!
The links from USF work for me. Thanks for letting me know even if it was a day late. LOL
Keep it up!
Then there's the EXCELLENT Green Frog:
And this one:

Take your pick...
All three guranteed to turn into a Prince when I kiss them?
I'll have them all!
No, won't be greedy. One's for Bennett46.
Palestinians with children just don't want to see billboards with Sara Jessica Parker with her tits hanging out. And neither do I want to expose my children to such.
bump.
bump.
I'm an American and I don't want to see those billboards either.
You have Hollywood and a rapidly growing secular society to thank for that!
Dear Concentrate,
I believe you are simplifying matters. Compare your reaction to what you don't like to theirs. Islamic violence has a long long history that predates sexy advertisements or porn on the web. Islam has a history of making eunuchs to protect harems.
Palestinian children sent out to blow themselves up are promised 72 virgins in heaven. The act of blowing themselves up is called a "marriage". Islam allows child marriages. The prophet himself married a 6 year old girl and consummated when she was 9 (still playing with her dolls - according to self-same Islamic scripture - the Hadith).
The Ayatollah Komeini, spiritual and temporal leader of Iran was married a ten year old girl, who had a miscarriage at the age of eleven.
Throwing rocks at a woman buried in a pit is pornographic. The men throwing rocks and chanting "God is Great" can have up to 4 wives, plus all the women of their right hand (war captives - sex slaves), plus they can divorce by simply repeating 3 times "Talaq talaq talaq".
They are the last to talk about morality.
btt
Thanks for the ping.
Did someone call my name...
Hey Lady...Did you order a green tree frog?
...look above.
That's the best tree froggy piccie I ever saw! Thanks.
