The word is everywhere, but what does it mean? Jihad holy war or struggle now threatens innocent people of every faith. Al Qaeda may now be at the top of the terror ladder, but the roots of this global war are deep in history.
Tune in this weekend as Oliver North explores what every person should know about jihad. In proven "War Stories" tradition, this episode brings historical context to today's events.

This is a very informative 1 hour program about the Jihad. I watched it Saturday evening. Pay particular attention to Wafa Sultan. She immigrated from Syria to the US in 1989, is a very vocal critic of Islam (although she may still be Muslim), and has received a great many death threats from Muslims for voicing her views.
Pass the word.
Thanks for the ping...I would have missed this!

"It's time we recognized the nature of the conflict. It's total war and we are all involved. Nobody on our side is exempted because of age, gender, or handicap. The Islamofacists have stolen childhood from the world." [FReeper Retief]
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Paleologus - as quoted by Pope Benedict XVI
I saw it too. Sent Ollie a congrats. It was great!
I tuned in to watch the program again tonight and darn if they did not show it here on the west coast. I'll keep my eyes open for when the program is aired again.
Thanks. I missed the show, but if Ollie North did it, it had to be great!
