Tony Blair has said, Radical Islam is world's greatest threat

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-11182225

And I agree, but I also believe you can drop the word ‘radical’ from that sentence. Tell me how one is to differentiate between them? (radical and Islam that is)

And don’t miss this Saturday’s sign, the crescent new moon occults Venus and this is a predominant sign in Islamic imagery.

Notice the dates:
09/11/2010
09/11/2001

This tells me that whoever planed the 9/11/01 attacks (Abdullah II, king of Jordan) was well aware of this sign! But I’m sure our government is up to speed on these things by now, aw, who am I kidding? If we’re relying on the (any) government we’re all doomed!

Clip:

(September 11, 2010) — Venus 0.3° north of Moon, occultation
An occultation occurs when one object passes in front of a smaller one, temporarily obscuring all or part of the background object from view.

Clip:

Ottomans being Turks were using a crescent bearing flag. When Saleem I resumed power as the caliph, the Ottoman flag was red with a green circle and three yellow crescents. Ottomans for the first time separate the religious flag and the national flag. The national flag was red with crescent facing right, while the religious flag green with crescent facing right. Later, a five-cornered star was added to symbolize the five pillars of Islam.

This green flag with crescent and star became a standard Islamic flag and is used till date, and it is very interesting that most of the people think that this flag has been used by Muslims since the beginning. This crescent bearing flag has been used by different Muslim empires and nations in the history especially those having Turkish origin. This crescent flag with some variations is still in use by different Muslim entities, e.g., Algeria, Azerbaijan, Comoros, Malaysia, Maldives, Mauritania, Pakistan, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, Uzbekistan, and Western Sahara.

See further discussion on our pages about the Ottoman Empire.

And as for this Muslim center planned in downtown Manhattan let’s take a look at the area. I can tell you there is no large Islamic population downtown that needs a mosque there. The people visiting this center would be from Brooklyn, Queens, New Jersey etc. the location is completely symbolic. I saw one woman on TV that got it right, she said, “They build their mosques at the site of their victories.” Check!

Oy,,, to be continued…
