Their man is in the White House and they are going for the throat. Unindicted co-conspirator, Muslim Brotherhood front CAIR (in Obama's Chicago) is hosting the first US appearance of previously banned jihadist Tariq Ramadan. Evil is circling the wagons. In sanctioning Ramadan, the Obama administration presents itself as a threat to national security.

There are NO words to describe this being done openly - blatantly. May God help us all and may America survive this administration..

UK shocker - government efforts to have Muslim chaplains de-radicalize Muslim prisoners are failing

One would think that if Islam really were a Religion Of Peace That Has Been Hijacked By A Tiny Minority Of Extremists™, this would be a relatively easy process. All one would have to do would be show the prisoners the peaceful aspects of the Qur’an that they had overlooked, and explain to them how Osama bin Laden and the rest had misunderstood Islamic theology. Then their loyalty as Muslims would do the rest. Why isn’t this happening?

Egyptian Christian girl subjected to acid attack

The Assyrian International News Agency reported yesterday that Dina el-Gowhary, a 15-year-old Egyptian Muslim-born girl who converted to Christianity, was subjected to an acid attack. Three weeks ago, as she left their hiding place to get some water, her jacket was set on fire. Dina's father Maher el-Gowhary, who now goes by the name Peter Athanasius, converted to Christianity 35 years ago. Several Fatwa's were issued calling for the "spilling of his blood," supported by Islamic apostasy laws which call for the death of converts. The family frequently changes where they live to evade being killed, and friends supply them with food. "We cannot sleep, eat or go out in the street," he said.

Terrorism, ethical values and Islamic dysfunctionalism

There is a troublesome news article on MSNBC about a Pakistani terrorist who had planned to use a 14-year old boy as a suicide bomber, the boy not knowing that he was to be killed in the attack.

There are three sentences in this story that raise issues that are instructive in understanding the mind of the terrorists and in instructing ourselves on issues that we as westerners need to consider.

[1] “I was happy to be in place where I could kill unbelievers,” he said. “I thank God that we all returned safely and had a successful mission.” He wanted to kill “unbelievers” not because of anything they had done to him, but they were not believers in his god and his religion. His religious faith was so distorted and fanatical that he believed that killing was an appropriate response to unbelief. There is something very wrong in the heart of a religious faith that sees the world in such “us versus them” terms, yet it seems to be endemic to the nature of fundamentalist interpretations of religion—muslim, Jewish or Christian. I have studied this issue and discuss it in an essay on “Fanatic Fundamentalists” at http://christianhumanist.net/fanatic.aspx
