Hooper's the CAIR spokesmouth, and his ability to defend Islamic terrorist groups is downright reflixive.

[skeeter]

Raids by police in 1992 and 1993 on a 101-acre Muslim commune in central Colorado turned up bombs, automatic weapons, ammunition and plans for terrorist attacks.

Coincidentally happening at the same time the feds were(vainly) sifting thru the ashes and charred bodies of Mt Carmel for the very same items.

"I can only imagine how WIDE this effort is....."

Looks pretty darned widespread. I found one here in PA called the "MASJID MUJAHIDEEN". It's in Philly, and it has been listed since 2000 as a "church."

I would very much hope the authorities AND the locals are at least SUSPICIOUS about any church with "warriors" as part of it's name, especially after 9-11, and MOST especially because the perp(s) who planted the nail bomb in a mailbox have not yet been caught.

Anyone recall who described the Afghan Taliban war as "Mad Max Meets Genghis Khan" ?

"Hooper's the CAIR spokesmouth..."

We're lucky, in a way, that Hooper and his ilk still have NO clue about how Americans tick. Every time I hear or read one of these goofballs telling Americans we must be nice to the Muslims because we are scaring them...I get one step closer to joining the nuke 'em all crowd.

Janet Reno is gone and will need a job after Jeb kicks her behind in November. Perhaps she could be a contract agent for the government. She would know what to do with a religious compound.

Great idea! Bush should make Reno the new "Minister of Infested Mosques". She certainly has the qualifications.

Being a resident of the Sovereign state of West 'by God'
Virginia, I have thought of a number of, probably inappropriate jokes, relative to inviting our militant
muslim guests to come 'hide out' in the hills of W.Va.

Bottom line is, while Dearborn, Mich. or Newark, NJ might
work as HQ's, I can't help but think 'muslim' types are
going to have difficulty blending in anywhere in western
VA or W.Va.

huh?

No argument here...now, downtown Richmond's got a bit harder job on its hands. I'll keep my eyes peeled...MUD

Ping. Is this in your neck of the woods?

Nazism was an ideology but islam is just a religion /sarc

[Holding Our Breath]

Please don't let Northern VA establish your opinion of The Old Dominion.

Although Northern Virginia is becoming more and more populated with these minority types, Virginia is still abeautiful state and the movement of these groups into the area is disturbing to say the least!

[Holding Our Breath]

driving around 90 miles an hour on 7E into Leesburg Very scary since I live in Reston....

[swarthyguy]

Good One!

[cake_crumb]

"huh?"

The person(s) who planted the bomb haven't been caught...have they? I've been trying to make it a point to cruise Philly news sites and find out how the case is progressing, but if anyone was arrested, I still might have missed it.

...we refuse to acknowledge that Islam is the enemy...

EXACTLY! Sad but true - islam is NOT a "religion" of peace and love, ESPECIALLY not to "infidels" who must "revert" to allah (all are, supposedly, born to allah but fall away, so it's not CONvert, it's REvert - LOL) or be killed.

The old testament is repleat with examples of entire groups being wiped out to the last man, woman and child and even to the last bit of livestock. I'm NOT saying that the bible calls for the elimination of islam, but there certainly is a great historical precedent for what is necessary, and it certainly appears that what is necessary FOR REAL, LASTING PEACE (and not merely in the middle east, but world wide!!!) IS the elimination of islam!

Stay armed and stay alert!

Nah. That's down in the heat. It's where my dad grew up though(Phenix, Va).

Could be tough for them, though. Pork is a sacrament in that part of the world. You can pull in to any parking lot and see guys selling BBQ from a pig cooker attached to a pickup truck.

bttt

"You can pull in to any parking lot and see guys selling BBQ from a pig cooker attached to a pickup truck."

....Hmmm....opens up possibilities for non-violently convincing the "militant Muslims" to leave the area....

This makes me think of what happened when the Christ Miracle Healing Center and Church moved into Miracle Valley AZ. They had a shoot-out with the Cochise County Sheriff's Department in 1981. Score: Good guys 1, Bad Guys 0.
