NEW YORK CITY - So far, the violent riots that have erupted throughout the Muslim world over the Mohammed cartoons have not been repeated here in the U.S.
But yesterday in New York City, one radical Islamic group was preaching a message that is anything but peaceful.
This is not Pakistan or Gaza. It is Manhattan's east side--just a short drive from ground zero. The group calls itself the Islamic Thinker's Societyits, for short. The purpose of the demonstration was to condemn the now infamous cartoons.
But there was another message as well: that Islam will one day dominate the world.
One ITS member said, We are here to tell you that there is nothing you can do--and that your days are numbered...all of you who disbelieve: speak good, or Allah will silence you.
The protest began in front of the Danish Consulate. ITS members stomped on Danish flags and warned Denmark that it would suffer "allah's wrath." The group then moved to the German Consulate, where they trampled on German and Israeli flags--and called non-Muslims "scum."
All of this took place under the watchful eye of the NYPD. Onlookers we spoke to were outraged.
Some people have evolved and matured and become civilized human beings, but they obviously haven't. And unfortunately we're supporting them and protecting them, too, One NYC resident said.
Members of the ITS declined to be interviewed for this story. But off-camera, their leader told cbn News that the group consists of mostly college students who live in New York City.
The Internet journal Worldnetdaily.com has reported that ITS is linked to al-Muhajiroun, a notorious British Islamist group that disbanded in 2004.
That group's former leader--Abu Hamza al-Masri--was convicted in a British court earlier this month of incitement to murder, among other offenses. ITS members deny any connection to al-Muhajiroun, but the black flag flown at ITS rallies--and its goal of a worldwide Islamic state--are identical to those of al-Muhajiroun.
Although this event lacked the violence that has been so prevalent in cartoon protests throughout the Muslim world, the message was eerily similar: America and Europe, your days are numbered.
Unfortunately, it may take another, even bigger attack on U.S. soil to make America WAKE UP and finally crush these bugs!!!

I believe there is a burgeoning marketing opportunity for paint ball ammunition filled with pork products.
If our society were morally healthy, they would all be hung in public without trial.
NYC is woefully 2nd Amendment deprived.
Bring it South, Akmed, we got something for ya and it's not a jail cell nor a group hug.
You are correct. It will come over the southern border.
When it happens, BITS.
Yeah, whatever.
Kinda like the SDS in the 60's who were preaching socialism. These 'students' should be investigated to see if they actually attend any classes at their colleges. If they aren't full time, they oughta be deported, then they can protest all they want, back home. Believe me, they'll still get face time on the American networks.
You post made me think. There was a time when people (Americans) didn't believe that this was their agenda. It was just a few years ago, when we bombed Serbia.
It *is* good that they are open about it now.
Kinda' oxymoronic isn't it?
They have lost this round.

I could continue, but you get the picture...
What do you mean "STAY" focused and never let down? We aren't focused at all - the primary concern is that we be fair and tolerant toward everyone equally. The Islamists whine about every little snub, and we don't have enough sense to tell every Arab/Muslim that doesn't have a good reason to be here (good for US, good for THEM doesn't count) to get out of the country by a certain date.
And MUSLIMS are the best reason for securing our borders. They HAVE and WILL use the Mexican border to access the US and commit more atrocities.
Today's behavior by Muslims would not have been tolerated prior to the self-indulgent 60's. They would have got the living daylights pounded out of them.
I am not for violence, but I'm not for tolerating these people either.
Pork rinds are much better, you don't get as much grease on your own hands.
Toss a football at 'em and yell, "Catch!"
But something WAS started right there, the DNC idiots WERE hit, and they STILL voted for Kerry.
I would be be surprised if those moslems were not card carrying democrats.
I hate to say it, but this is not "radical." It's basic Muslim belief. Allah rules the world, and he sent Muhammed to conquer it for him. Anyone who resists will be silenced or killed. Allah will see to it, through the agency of those who do his will. That's been the basic Muslim position for 1400 years.
The Nazis were an existential threat to Western democracies, including the US. They had the industrial, scientific and military ability to defeat the free world.
Islam does not. They have the ability to kill people and cause problems, but, in the end, Islam will lose a clash of civilizations with the West.
The Muslim world needs to make peace with that fact. The longer they drag this war out, the worse the end-results will be for them. The Western world invented the concept of total war. The only reason the Muslim world still exists post 9/11 is because of our restraint. But you can only get away with tugging on Superman's cape for so long.
I am so d@mn tired of this crap! If these raghead turds want to foment sedition send 'em to hell.
