Interpol, the international law enforcement cooperation organization with 188 member states, has explicitly warned Americans to not provoke terrorists this September 11th, the ninth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the United States mainland by the Muslim terrorist group al Qaeda.
The warning was made as part of a statement requested by Pakistan that was issued Thursday by Interpol regarding the global threat of violent reaction by Muslims to the planned burning of Korans this Saturday by a small, formerly obscure Christian church in Gainesville, Florida that is seeking to draw attention to the evil, violent nature of radical Islam. However, Interpol did not issue a similar warning asking Muslims to not engage in terrorism in response to the protest.
Interpol Secretary General Ronald K. Noble singled out Americans for a special admonition in the statement:
"September 11 is a day when the world should come together to redouble our efforts to prevent and fight terrorism, not a day when any individual, especially an American, should engage in provocative acts that will give terrorists propaganda intended to convert September 11 from a day of remembrance, to one of recruitment for terrorists and others inspired to attack the US and other western targets."
Noble appeased Muslims while belittling the protest by the Dove World Outreach Center and its leader Pastor Terry Jones:
"Pakistans actions in contacting INTERPOL to ensure that potentially vital information in helping police identify and prevent any form of terror attack is circulated worldwide are to be commended, and the reaction of INTERPOL and others around the world in response to this planned hateful act should be seen by the Muslim community as strong evidence that this man and his small congregation stand alone."
Interpol fails to appreciate that the simple act of breathing by Americans is a provocative act to Islamic terrorists. Its focus should be on thwarting terrorism, rather than on First Amendment protected activities by American citizens.
Except the Vacationer in Chief.
Obama has given INTERPOL rights to come after you here in America
Interpol can go to Hell and take the muzzies with them.

Here is a passage from the introduction:
Defining PropagandaAn attempt to define propaganda is made near the end of this pamphlet after we have examined its main characteristics. In order to avoid mistaken ideas, however, it may be useful to point out at once what some of these characteristics are.
Propaganda isnt an easy thing to define, but most students agree that it has to do with any ideas or beliefs that are intentionally propagated.
It uses words and word substitutes in trying to reach a goalpictures, drawings, graphs, exhibits, parades, songs, and other devices.
Of course propaganda is used in controversial matters, but it is also used to promote things that are generally acceptable and noncontroversial.
So there are different kinds of propaganda. They run all the way from selfish, deceitful, and subversive effort to honest and aboveboard promotion of things that are good.
Propaganda can be concealed or open, emotional or containing appeals to reason, or a combination of emotional and logical appeals.
See the section on Defining Propaganda for a fuller discussion.
It is the spring of 1940. Allied armies face the German columns, but there is little action at the front, and a group of French soldiers find time to listen to an enemy broadcast.
Where are the English? asks the radio voice. The enemy broadcaster is speaking in French. The soldiers listen uneasily. Ill tell you where your English comrades are, continues the voice. They lounge about Paris and fill the night clubs. Have you seen a Tommy in the Maginot Line? Of course not. French soldiers, you will find the Tommies behind the lineswith your wives.
Propaganda. Of course. The German propaganda strategy of division, intended to sow suspicion and doubt about the fidelity of an ally. The propaganda preparatory to the blitz.
A handful of Londoners are drinking ale in their neighborhood pub. The time is July 1940. The French have signed Hitlers armistice terms, but Britain is still holding out. The pub keeper turns the dials of the tavern radio to tune in on Lord Haw-Haw, the Berlin broadcaster, and the voice booms out:
England is ripe for invasion. ... You might as well expect help from an army of mastodons as from the United States. ... You are on a doomed ship. ... Whether or not the people of Britain want to see their fields turned into graveyards and their cities into tombs is a matter for themselves and Mr. Churchill. Perhaps if the British people could speak, they would ask for peace. But since the official voice of England asks not for peace but for destruction, it is destruction we must provide.
The propaganda of fear. The voice of defeatism.
It is the autumn of 1941. The United States is still neutral, but an American Army is in training, a Navy is being strengthened, and Lend-Lease supplies are crossing the Atlantic.
An American sits at home tinkering with his short-wave set and he picks up an English-language broadcast beamed to North America from Germany.
The German government and the German people have only the friendliest of feelings for the United States, the home of so. many American citizens of German descent. The words of the radio speaker are honeyed words. Let it be said for once and all, the broadcaster continues, that a German victory in this war is no threat to English democracyand certainly not to American democracy.
The propaganda voice of appeasement. Here is the strategy of attempting to hypnotize a people with an assertion of the peaceful intentions of the Nazi war machine.
In a few brief months the Japs strike at Pearl Harbor, and the Germans declare war against those for whom they said they cherished only the friendliest of feelings.
Well, BRING IT ON!!!
It is good to provoke the snake, if the aim is to cut off it’s head. (Me, 9-9-10)
Remember when the Islamists called Palestinians invaded and seized the Church of the Nativity and desecrated the Bibles there?
You have to smoke the snake out somehow.
Nope. He's an American (or was).
Remember him from the Waco hearings? He was high up in Treasury at the time, and was taken to task for the bungled BATF raid which left agents and Branch Davidians dead and lead to the standoff.
The Clintoons bailed him out and got him this gig with Interpol - he is/was married to Hillary's COS, Maggie Williams.
Too bad Soupy Sales isn’t around anymore. I’d like to hear him weigh in.
Interpol will raid the The Dove Church on Saturday and arrest American citizens while the local cops and the FBI stand by. Barack Obama will say he doesn’t have the authority to stop it!
When does his IRS investigation begin?
In which direction are we supposed to bow?
can’t doubt it
They'd better bring friends and pack a lunch.
Instead of warning terrorists to not commit acts of terror others are warned not to provoke them. What a bunch of pussies.
Oh my gosh!
Remember the banner:
.....THE DEMOCRAT PARTY IS A CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE.....
Don’t provoke terrorists. KILL them.
