Ellison encourages Detroit crowd to push for justice
Star Tribune ^ | 12/25/06 | Niraj Warikoo

DETROIT — Speaking in Dearborn, Mich., late Sunday night, the first Muslim elected to Congress told a cheering crowd of Muslims they should remain steadfast in their faith and push for justice.

"You can't back down, you can't chicken out, you can't be afraid, you got to have faith in Allah, and you got to stand up and be a real Muslim," Detroit native Keith Ellison said to loud applause.

"Allahu akbar" — God is great — was the reply of many in the crowd.

"Allah" does not mean "god" in any language. "Allah" is the NAME of the Muslim rock god. "ilah" is the arabic word for god. This is pointed out in the koran more than 52 times.

"Journalist's" just aren't very smart these days, or they are using this disgusting evil called "Allah" to further degrade the image of the true God, Yahweh.

I wonder how long it will be before Michigan becomes the first Islamic country/state to succeed from the union and establish sharia law?

Democrat- the Islamic party.

And how do you explain some of the very good things our troops say about the average Iraqis?

How many Muslims do you know well enough to sit down over a cup of coffee or a lunch and talk with them about what is happening in the Mideast?

Muslims out of America, they don't belong here.

Yeah what the hell....let's just toss the First Amendment out the window. Next we'll go after Mormons and then maybe Zen Buddhists....

AMENDMENT I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

I know some very peaceful Muslims, but I do believe that the religion has a fatal flaw, that it has a sadistic origin.

I can say that not all wolves are bad, and that I have pet an puppy wolf, and never been bit. But I am not so naive as to think that a pack of wolves would not tear me to pieces given the chance.

Have you been to Dearborn lately? it's like going to the Middle East.
Don't expect anything to happen there should there be another attack on American soil, besides dancing in the streets.
every second baby born in Michigan is named "Mohammad", and in dearborn you get to hear that annoying call to prayer.

Allah?! This is NOT good. Keith Ellison should stay in his own state if he wants to stir things up. Detroit has enough problems without the not-so-good Senator "helping" out.

"Allahu akbar"

Sounds like a battle cry to me.

Let me see if I have this straight...the hijackers on 9-11 screaming "Allahu akbar" as the fly planes full of Americans into buildings full of Americans killing 3000+.

Practically every other act of war committed by the practitioners of this cult of death the perpetrators are screaming "Allahu akbar" at the moment of ignition.

Yeah, they're peace-loving people who just want a better life here in America. Sorry, not buying it for a minute.

Having sent most of my life with pack animals, I have to say that you are mixing grapefruit and coconuts. But that would be another discussion.

So I ask the question: Should we kill all wolves, including your pet and the pets that any other person may have because of the wild ones?

I just finished watching the Dog Whisperer and he says something that is very interesting, over and over. There are no bad dogs, only bad dog owners.

I think the same thing should be applied to our immigrants. The first thing you do with a pack is you do not let the pack get out of control to begin with. The best way to prevent that is to not add to the pack until you have control over what you already have.

Enough said, if you think about it.

The "yoots" will probably start burning cars in Detroit tomorrow.

I live just north of Detroit. I can honestly wonder if anyone would know if the yoots were burning cars. Being that I will be statistically safer when I go to Baghdad next month than I am in downtown Detroit, will anyone actually be able to notice the extra five cars burning?

Property crime against cars in Detroit is endemic. Police don't respond to it, residents at visitors take it for granted. The only people seriously concerned about a rash of car fires would be the car strippers who burn their hands trying to rip off the cars. As for Baghdad, it's about 40% more dangerous than the Detroit average (so saith Google Answers). Probably a lot more dangerous than downtown, somewhat less dangerous than certain neighborhoods at night. All sweeping generalizations of course, YMMV.

That you spent time over there is interesting.

But I ask the question again: How many do you know well enough to sit down with and have a real discussion? Those that are here now.

Some see Liberalism is a religion, and belive it to be busy outlawing free speech and expression of religion, excluding Islamic faith. Some might say Satanic rituals should be protected under the law as they are a religious expression, and some would prefer to jail its practitioners. When Muslims become the majority, all debate will end. All non Muslims will be forced to join or die. That is the reality. Heads will roll, it is the nature of Islam.

Please elaborate. You are being very vague. I had a Muslim client. He was a crud. What is it exactly that you thing we don't already know here?

"To hear Rosie on "The View" talk about her seething hatred of Christians in America (between making insults towards Asians), there is little doubt as to what the left would do if given full power."

And yet she gets away with it. But if someone says anything about a lesbian, well then that's a national crisis. I hope the Donald gives her a good bIatch slap for all of us who can't stand that show, which was bad before she got on, but is horrid now with her non-stop big mouth flapping away. This just goes to show Babwa Wawa's was a coset lesbian all these years, and is why she never married. What a shameful show she created. At least it was somewhat tollerable when Meridith was on. She sure knew what she was doing when she bailed. Now all they have is a token "sort of" right winger,Elizabeth, who has been lezzing it up with Rosie after the show. It's not like she could ever get a word in edgewise anyways

they would most certainly use it against their own people.

The clintons proved that at Waco for sure.

Thank You M1 Tanker for your service to our great country.

May God Bless you and keep you safe.

" The KKK and the white supremacists hold the Bible high when they rant. That does not make the Bible bad, it only points out that both good and wicked people read the Bible. They just read into it what fits their agenda. The same with any other religion.

No iot isn't. The Koran and hadith teach murder bigotry. It's Not a religion, it's a totalitarian system of government, justice, religion all rolled up into one. Don't be fooled by these "nice" muslims that you THINK you know. They act that way so they don't draw attention to themselves, until the day they shave all their hair off and blow up.

I thought the question was pretty simple and straight forward.

How many Muslims do you know well enough to sit down with and have a real discussion?

If you do not understand that question, I doubt your discussion would be of much value.

I have several clients that are crud. Crud can be spelled American, German, English and several other ways as well.

So what?

If you had 25 Muslim clients that were all crud, it might mean something.

The common denominator; the Manchurian Mohammedan Candidate has been revealed in Keith Ellison. The common threads between Democrats and Islamofascists are indeed the Arafat doublespeak and fundraising. This dude mat require a ping list of his own.
