Are We in the Ninth Year of a Ten-Year Hudna?

A chill ran through me this month when I realized that September 2010 might be more than just another anniversary of the 2001 savagery. According to Islamic law, 2010 could be the start of the ninth year of a ten-year hudna. So what is a "hudna," and what is so special about the ninth year of an Islamic terror standoff?

A "hudna" is a temporary peace entered into by an Islamic force when it is weaker than its enemy. Its purpose is to buy the Islamic side time to rearm and regroup. But don't think of it as a ceasefire as Westerners understand the concept, because there are fundamental differences.

First, according to Islamic thought, the Muslim side is entitled to break the hudna at any time without giving notice to its adversary. However, the non-Muslim side is entitled to no such change of mind.

Second, ten years is the longest time authorized for a hudna before the Islamic side is obliged to resume making war. And since the last Islamic assault on Washington and New York -- our political and economic capitals, respectively -- we have now passed the nine-year mark.

"...Most of all, they don't want to know that the word "islam" itself means "surrender" in Arabic, not "peace," as has been widely misreported, and that our side is the one that is required to do the surrendering..."

Keep saying it, Marylou! .......................... FRegards

[dusttoyou]

Can’t speak for anyone else, but I am damn tired of hearing of all this camel jockey/arab sounding names or mooselimb holiday BS.

These people are stuck in the 8th Century and are dead-set on dragging all the rest of us back there with them.

The whole lot of em needs to be herded to iran and the stinking place turned into glass.

It just takes them ten years to get organized.

Not to worry, our president is certain we can absorb a terrorist attack.

However, it it messes up Michelle's garden, he knows he'll have hell to pay!
