It is ironic isn't it?
On week after eight Muslim doctors were taken into custody for plotting three car bomb attacks in the U.K. only a week ago, and following the discovery of a plot in which forty-five Muslim doctors intend to penetrate America's borders and do the same thing - the reigning champion on Jeopardy this very weekend - is a Muslim doctor.
He's smart, well put together, and very, very knowledgeable about all of the categories in his two day run that relate especially to American politics, relatively unknown heads of state in the Middle East, and fared very well on some relatively obscure chemistry questions too.
Does that make him a jihadi bomber?
I'm not asserting anything of the sort - but the questions now run through my mind that didn't only two weeks ago.
We were told by liberals, and the anti-war left that these poor Muslims were acting out against the United States because of western aggression and 'unfair' economic policies that locked the jihadis in dirt poor conditions. We were told that they were just uneducated blokes whose only possible avenue of response had to be violence against innocent people.
I guess that line of reasoning doesn't hold up when 53 prominent, highly educated, and evidently pretty financially mobile physicians have decided that they will use their Mercedes, Land Rovers, and Jeep Cherokees to destroy us several dozen at a time.
Reacting to the newly uncovered "45 doc" plot against the U.S. this week I observed on my Monday broadcast that it seemed the terrorists had observed our decision to cast suspicion against "poor jihadis" and simply altered their tactics to be less noticeable. Physicians are able to move much more easily from nation to nation, and after all they've taken the Hippocratic Oath to uphold life... right?
As my phone lines lit up one caller, 'Debbie' from Philadelphia, professed to working as an airline flight attendant, she recounted multiple eerie and creepy encounters with Muslim men on recent flights. Her estimation was that these men were purposefully "testing her reaction" as well as the rest of the crew to see what would be done. From one passenger going to the lavatory only to return wearing a bandana (a la 'United 93') to an Arab male who refused to take his seat because he was asked to by a mere woman.
The very next caller was 'Ellie' from Brooklyn; she chastised me for allowing Debbie to tell of her experiences. She launched accusations of Americans’ ignorance when it came to Arab/Muslim customs. She hatefully espoused that 'Debbie' was bigoted for having felt the least bit odd, when in fact "odd" things were happening around her. And in one mad rampant spew at the end of her call she accused me of needing "sensitivity" training, instructing me to use my air-time to spread the truth about Islam and to teach its true meaning.
I replied by responding that the concerns Debbie had, were not the least akin to bigotry. The airline flight attendant is the rule of law on international flights, when she tells the man politely to park his backside in his seat, I could care less what his Arab or Muslim culture informs him of. He has but one responsibility - and that is - to sit the heck down.
It was the observation of many of my show's staff that Ellie was quite likely a plant of some sort, attempting to disseminate exactly what our enemy wants us to think.
And on that initiative - they seem to be winning.
On Friday British Prime Minister Gordon Brown instructed his ministers to no longer use the word "Muslim" when referring to terrorist acts like the ones carried out in London and Glasgow. He also had the "war on terror" removed from the vernacular of the two week old government. His reasoning?
“There is clearly a need to strike a consensual tone in relation to all communities across the UK. It is important that the country remains united.”
And there it is again, that same blasted idea of a "consensual tone."
But does anyone ask the question, "What are we consenting to?" Nobody is arguing persecution for any one religious or ethnic group here, but for the record I'm fed up with all the "consensual tone" we westerners have had to concede on the issue.
Saying "it is important that the country remains united" begs the same question.
United around what?
It seems to me that the enemy is given lots of cover when we force the matter of linguistic correctness upon the masses. We have bent over backwards so as to not offend Arabs and Muslims. So much so that some are starting to ask - when are the Arabs and Muslims going to start helping us with these issues of security?
If consensus must be had then let it be the Muslim community who demonstrates their willingness to work with the larger society by conducting thorough internal investigations, coughing up the perpetrators, and demonstratively wiping their hands of the murderous thugs. Let us see their unique outrage that they share our pain and are willing to stand with the infidel and against their brother - for the cause of justice... consensually speaking.
Up and until that day comes I refuse to criticize good and decent, hard working innocent people like 'Debbie' from Philadelphia who in the aftermath of 9/11, sometimes worries about odd behaviors she sees expressed by religiously self-superior Arab males.
And it will be a very long time, for me personally, before the phrase 'Muslim doctor' will be able to be uttered in my presence without some sense of defensiveness quickening my heart rate.
"That's 'common sense' for $2000 Alex..."
And Muslims never have and never will do this.

Slightly longer answer: We are stupid and they are never going to help us.
Some categories he may have difficulty with:
"Pork - The other White Meat"
"Jesus - Not just another Jew"
"Women and their Contributions to Society"
Personally, I adhere to what the Bible says...
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].
The enemy will fight praying towards a black rock in Mecca. Those of us that understand the struggle will face towards our heavenly Father who hears our prayers.
I’ve thought for a long time that we should start having bombers flying over Mecca around-the-clock and inform the Muslim world that the next time there was an act of terrorism anywhere in the world that we would turn their satanic rock and shrine into a sand pit.
“The enemy will fight praying towards a black rock in Mecca.”
I had an idea earlier today about what to do with the meteor...

Ping to #6 wagglebee.
Sure looks like a bedpan to me. And they make pilgrams to stick their head in their and kiss a meteor? Gives the term ‘kiss the porceline bowl’ a new meaning.
Exactly. I hear about “moderate Muslims†all the time, but I sure have never seen one or heard their voices raised in outrage about 9/11 or any other terrorist act. To me, profiling, watching Arab-looking people closely, etc. are actions they deserve because of what they believe and have done. This political correctness and being “kind and tolerant” that so many espouse is going to get more people killed. Whatever unwanted attention they get in public is of their own doing.
And Islam is a form of Theistic Satanism.
Exactly!
Agree. This is a spiritual war.
oh yes, wagglebee. This will be the right way to bring democracy and peace into the world in general and into the Middle East in particular ;-)
when the Kaaba is destroyed, all the radical islamist will say: “eh, we were totally wrong! thank you for bombing our shrine! from now we will live on your values and, for sure, we`ll nevernevernever start any kind of vendetta :-)
that wouldn`t work, and that`s the reason why no military expert who isn`t completely nuts will support such an idea.
the “eye for an eye” - way of thinking is comprehensible, from the point of view a psychologist may have. In practical politics it is rather dumb.
Also, Potent Potables.
Actually, he has an Arab name but is apparently American born and educated.
Just a matter of when.
When a majority get enough hits to take action, that is WHEN you will see all out war against Islam by the rest of the world.
I DO believe it is coming.
You can’t teach kids that hating Jews and Christians is normal, and to kill or convert is the will of a GOD. That is the will of a small “g” false god.
Muslims worship a different god, a pagan god of war. A pagan culture that believes women mean little and should be beaten, not heard (something feminist don’t seem to talk loudly about). Some say it is a false moon god, but they are brainwashing their culture into radicalism.
The non-Muslim world will need to take action and it is going to be lots of bloody politically incorrect actions that will either make them fear staying on their current path or they will die.
They pretty much want us to become women beating, child abusing Muslims or we must die.
There is no middle ground, so we have a date with WW3 of Muslims against all others.
It is only a matter when it gets going heavy, there are no ways of avoiding it in my opinion.
God Bless America, our troops and the sacrifice of all those before us that gave us the privileged to this day to live in freedom.
you make a big mistake, CA Guy.
your mistake is: taking the, maybe, 5 percent idiot islamists for the total amount of muslims. It`s like taking the radical Christians who really believe that the earth is 600 years old for the whole community of all christians in the world.
Most of all muslims are occupied with their daily living, work, family and so on. There is no interest to join a terrorist group. in most muslim countries, anyway - what I mean is the majority in Indonesia, Dubai or Morocco, for example. That people in Iraq, Palestina or Afghanistan rather tend to join terrorist groups or to radicalize is a logical thing, but not representative.
I think the people on *both* sides (if there are only two sides... I didn`t think so) who are interested in escalation are not a hell of a lot. Not enough to cause a future like you predict ;-)
What ever is this Islamic appologist talking about? Plenty of people dedicate time to teach Americans the true meaning of Islam. There are plenty of Muslims however, that are decieving Americans what the true meaning is, and they always seem to forget to bring their koran along with them..
The true meaning of Islam:
Ishaq:208"When Allah gave permission to his Apostle to fight, the second Aqaba contained conditions involving war which were not in the first act of submission. Now we bound themselves to war against all mankind for Allah and His Apostle. He promised us a reward in Paradise for faithful service. We pledged ourselves to war in complete obedience to Muhammad no matter how evil the circumstances."
Qur'an:8:39 "So, fight them till all opposition ends and the only religion is Islam."
Qur'an:8:7 "Allah wished to confirm the truth by His words: ‘Wipe the infidels out to the last.'"
Ishaq:204 "‘Men, do you know what you are pledging yourselves to in swearing allegiance to this man?' ‘Yes. In swearing allegiance to him we are pledging to wage war against all mankind.'"
Ishaq:587 "Our onslaught will not be a weak faltering affair. We shall fight as long as we live. We will fight until you turn to Islam, humbly seeking refuge. We will fight not caring whom we meet. We will fight whether we destroy ancient holdings or newly gotten gains. We have mutilated every opponent. We have driven them violently before us at the command of Allah and Islam. We will fight until our religion is established. And we will plunder them, for they must suffer disgrace."
Qur'an:8:39 "Fight them until all opposition ends and all submit to Allah."
Ishaq:324 "He said, ‘Fight them so that there is no more rebellion, and religion, all of it, is for Allah only. Allah must have no rivals.'"
And of coursse:
Tabari I:280 "Allah said, ‘It is My obligation to make Eve bleed once every month as she made this tree bleed. I must also make Eve stupid, although I created her intelligent.' Because Allah afflicted Eve, all of the women of this world menstruate and are stupid."
Tabari IX:113 "Allah permits you to shut them in separate rooms and to beat them, but not severely. If they abstain, they have the right to food and clothing. Treat women well for they are like domestic animals and they possess nothing themselves. Allah has made the enjoyment of their bodies lawful in his Qur'an."
The nonactive ones have been collaborators.
If they are NOT collaborators throughout Islam, then please point to the great Islamic Fatwa against Radical Islam, Osama Bin Laden and all the other bastards?
From what I have seen, a moderate Muslim seems to be one that does not practice their faith.
The whole culture is sick because any culture that keeps women down and treats them poorly is doomed IMO.
It’s dysfunctional, abusive and non loving.
