Try the first link and then hit the title: “We Can’t Afford to Let Them Spill the Beans”

Also: “Why Bush Wants to Legalize the Nuke Trade with Turkey” is also interesting. I wonder if this has anything to do with Turkey entering into Iraq’s northern territory? Could this be an incentive?

Regarding the author at link in post # 36.... Dr. Thomas Riggins is the Chaper President of Humanist Society of Metropolitan New York

Humanist Society of Metropolitan New York

For example, England spoke at the Islamic Society of North America's 2006 convention...

The sum total of stupid in all of gubmint is truly awe inspiring. Within 48 hours of the towers coming down on September 11, 2001 I was convinced that we, the West, had 1.6 billion enemies within islam. I have not changed that assessment. With all their resources, these people can't figure out they are being had.

You are right. I remember he had to apologize to Hillary for that letter.

He could be the “former Turkish Ambassador”. Hmmmmm?????

When did Edelman condemn coughlin? Do you have the link?

Thanks Ernest.

In a stunning turn of events, a high-level Muslim military aide blamed for costing an intelligence contractor his job will step down from his own Pentagon post, WND has learned. Meanwhile, his rival, Maj. Stephen Coughlin, a leading authority on Islamic war doctrine, may stay in the Pentagon, moving from the office of the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to the office of the secretary of defense. However, sources say a former U.S. ambassador to Turkey is trying to block his new contract.

*Former* U.S. ambassador to Turkey? It's about time we had us a hangin'!

"He's voluntarily leaving the government in March."

March? He should be leaving the deck of a barge somewhere in the Potomac estuary, wearing cement blocks wired to his feet.

Best news I have read for a long time - subject matter. Is the ice finally breaking? Are we waking up to the enemy within?

The deputy secretary of Defense, England should also be fired if he does not resign.

As far as the State Dept is concerned you’d have an empty building if the appeasers and pro-Islam Dhimmis were to be required to leave!

Same goes - VERY SADLY - for the CIA, who have turned from competent covert operatives (not all but too many) - into corporate CYA desk jockeys.

You can’t get them to do anything worthwhile after being mentally retrained by the Clintons for nearly a decade into being emasculated eunuchs instead of the guardians of our interests as they were in the past.

Like some of the ones I knew. None of whom wanted to stay.

If any of them care to question this, I will be happy to put something in front of them that will curl their toes. Or hang their heads in shame.

Good deal!

Note to Fairness Doctrine Pushers:

Don’t do it! Fairness Doctrine will get people killed someday!

If we had Fairness Doctrine, would anyone have put that scum under a microscope? Probably not!

COLMES: We only have a moment left. We have a FOX News producer at the Pentagon who is reporting that we have spoken with people in the Pentagon who are claiming that the defense intelligence agency, they employ Coughlin through a contract.

And it was Rear Admiral David Dorset, director of intelligence for the joint staffs, who decided not the renew his contract for fiscal purposes. It had nothing to do whatsoever with Islam, the person you’re fingering as being responsible for his dismissal.

Another “PC” Navy guy doing Islam’s dirty work? What’s up with the Navy?

Unfortunately, it's what our boys have been forced to bleed and die for:

The New "Democratic" Iraqi Constitution: Article 2: First: Islam is the official religion of the State and it is a fundamental source of legislation:.. No law that contradicts the established provisions of Islam may be established.

“The firing of the Pentagon’s only resident expert on Islamic law, Maj. Stephen Coughlin, has begun to attract the attention of key members of Congress and the White House, which has launched a “fact-finding” mission into the case, Newsmax has learned.”

Wonder if Edelman is going against the WH? This is curious....must go now.

BTW, I too could not find a link between Edelman and Coughlin other than this article.

Have you seen what Debbi Schlussel went through, trying to get the FBI to investigate Muslim death threats against her and her family?

Thanks for the ping!

After recounting a Muslim death threat to her... From Debbie's site:

Unfortunately, with John, he was allowed to plead to a misdemeanor, even though his crime was a felony. And we'll see what the judge metes out in terms of a sentence. I'd like to see jail-time. If his victim were a Muslim, that would be guaranteed. Will this guilty plea affect Mr. John's immigration status, as he seeks to become a U.S. citizen? If it had been a felony, I'm told it would have for sure. This is not the kind of guy who should be in our country, let alone get citizenship. With Burki, since he is not believed to be in America, if he ever comes back, he's supposed to be arrested and stand trial. We'll see.

It's important to note that justice for me did not come nearly as easily as it comes for American Muslims who get action from the FBI and the U.S. Department of Justice, upon the whine about a hangnail. Mr. John sent his death threat to me almost 3.5 years ago. And I am only now finally getting justice, after going through a lot of baloney. I also believe that were it not for my having a loud and influential voice on this site and elsewhere in the media, nothing would have happened at all.

I compare this to the lightning speed that FBI agents and Justice Department lawyers moved in indicting and convicting two New York men who sent largely benign, anti-Muslim e-mails to extremist, hate-mongering Imam Hassan Qazwini, on the weekend of Nicholas Berg's televised beheading. Within a month of their e-mails, FBI agents raided both men's homes, and they were indicted shortly thereafter. Unlike my cases, they were not given plea deals. One of the men, Michael Bratisax, is a quadriplegic veteran in a wheelchair. (As I've written, the USDOJ has a special affirmative action prosecution program for Muslim "victims"--you and I aren't equal to them in "Justice"'s eyes.)

Islam+The Left=Unholy Alliance. The Left+Islam=Barack Obama. Wake. Up. Now.

[FARS]

As far as I know, the Qazvini mentioned here is part of the six member Iranian family, father and sons, originally based in Southern California, who started a madrasseh school and mosque in Irvine (still there), then also others in various States.

One of them became the Imam of one of the key mosques in Iraq.

[farmer18th]

I was more troubled, actually, by the reported double-standard between the two different kinds of threats.
