I just got a copy of the 1995 video "Jihad in America" yesterday, from the WorldNetDaily site. I watched it last night.
While the video was made for PBS in 1995, it does have a brief update at the beginning, dealing with the WTC attack and other things that have transpired since 1995.
People, we are in a world of trouble. I STRONGLY urge you to get this video, ASAP. WorldNetDaily sells it, and you may be able to find it elsewhere. You really won't understand what the threat that we face is until you've seen it.
The Taliban isn't the problem. Osama bin Laden isn't the problem. True, they're pieces of the problem, but only pieces. The biggest part of the threat we face consists of the fact that there are thousands of active followers of Islam who want to destroy America FROM THE INSIDE, and they're primed and ready to go. This video includes scenes secretly taped at several radical Islam "events," where various leaders urged the people attending - and there were hundreds at each meeting - to kill, to shoot, that the "blood must flow, that limbs must be cut off," etc. Folks, these meetings didn't take place in Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia - they took place in Kansas, New Jersey, Florida, etc. These people are well established in American communities, and they've been preparing for several years now. Remember, this video was made in 1995.
One of the updates at the beginning of the video included the fact that a meeting was held in September of 2000 wherein several major players in America's defense community were called to Washington to take part in computer simulations to determine what the biggest threats are currently to America, and to see how they could be effectively dealt with. The result was that, essentially, China isn't the biggest threat. Russia isn't the biggest threat. The biggest threat is radical Islam. In fact, the video states that in 10 hours of computer simulation no sufficient answers for defense or deterrence were found that were adequate to keep America from suffering greatly and our lives as Americans from being permanently changed by attacks from radical Islam.
I came away from watching this video stunned - and thinking that these people are the equivalent of rabid dogs. If this isn't dealt with, right now, INSIDE AMERICA, we are going to lose this country. Rabid dogs are shot or otherwise killed, because they are, purely and simply, too dangerous to allow to live, as well as being incurable.
Between this extreme form of Islam and the rapid elimination of our rights as citizens under the guise of fighting terrorism, we are in a world of hurt right now, people.
I'm about as strict a Constitutionalist as you're likely to find. But we MUST do something about radical Islam before it destroys this country. I propose a constitutional amendment that removes many of the rights in the Bill of Rights FOR FOLLOWERS OF ISLAM ONLY until we can get a handle on this. The wholesale abrogation of the rights of ALL citizens that's being conducted right now by "our" federal government is extreme overkill - it should be limited to proponents of radical Islam, since they are, in actuality, the only real threat among the people living here. "Our" government is using Islamic terrorism as an excuse to clamp down on good American citizens, and that cannot and need not be accepted or tolerated. The "USA Patriot Act" should be limited to followers of Islam, as should all "terrorist" legislation and executive orders dealing with terrorism in the forseeable near future. There *IS* no threat from anybody else to this country, but the threat from radical Islam is EXTREME.
ALL followers of radical Islam should be deported from this country NOW. Period. Rounded up and sent away. Before their plan to destroy America bears more fruit. And NO Middle Eastern people should be granted visas of any type until this is all sorted out. If we don't take extreme measures like this, America is going to be destroyed.
Get the video. Order it NOW. You need to see what we're up against. It's a lot worse than you think.
One of the best spectator sports is watching people who argue vehemently that there is nothing that justifies endangering constitutional rights slowly see the light...
And then try to come up with alternatives.
Excellent advice. The video is also available for online viewing with Real Player at the links below.

Have you seen the video? I didn't have that apocalyptic tone until I watched it.
I appreciate your comment, but even the Founders knew that sometimes the Constitution would need to be modified. My biggest concern in that vein is simply that the method they provided for doing so be followed - and it rarely is. Today executive orders and legislative fiat have replaced Constitutional rule.
I do not dispute that Radical Islamics are a clear and present Danger; I just wonder the academics of the task.
