Good day to you!
Fundamental Muslims had a chance to show themselves as worthy of living in civilized society -- they failed.
Muslims had a chance to show themselves as with us against radical Islamic terrorist --- they failed.
Muslims were welcomed to America and the West - and we extended all that we could offer in friendship -- and they attack us, HERE in our home.
Muslims now must decide, to either live in peace, or Rest in Peace...
It WILL get VERY ugly is they select door number 2, and you have clearly already selected door 2 - bub bye....
Semper Fi
A lie. What else did Satan whisper in your ear?
Please understand; this is personal. If you could witness 9/11 and convert to Islam then you are evil.
I watched thousands die and saw the unanimous consensus of the Islamic world when none would stand up and offer an unqualified denunciation of that mass murder.
Go back under your rock.
"You see, I hate mysteries," explained Skippy, flipping through his dog-eared copy of the Koran.
"And so do a lot of other Americans. They just don't have the courage to admit it."
"I always used to turn to the last page of a mystery novel to find out what happens--back when I wasted my time reading mystery novels; and even then I sometimes didn't really get the solution.
"But there are no mysteries here," he said happily, pointing to his holy book.
Skip--who prefers now to be called "Skimp", in honor of the Prophet--describes his long journey into the House of Mohammed in a book tentatively titled Putting My Faith Where the Sun Don't Shine--a White Boy's Journey which is scheduled to be released on the first anniversary of the destruction of the World Trade Towers in New York City.
"I never understood why the man that Christians worship as "god" left so many questions unanswered--so many rules unspoken"
"Why did he talk in parables and shoot back confusing questions when somebody asked him something?" As far as I was concerned the whole New Testament was nothing but mystery novel without a solution on the last page."
At one point in his spiritual journey the desperate young man consulted a Christian pastor in his neghborhood.
"I knocked on Reverend Tiffany Sweetwater's door one hot, late-summer's night at about 2 o'clock AM. I don't know what denomination she was in but I do remember that she answered the door in one of those short, lilac, see-through thing-a-ma-jigs with fake ostrich feathers around the chest and wrists."
"I ran from there," said Mainwaring--the memory of that frightening encounter etched upon his face as he searched for words.
"I ran and ran for what seemed like days. Actually it was only a few hours."
" I guess I fell asleep in front of a discount electronics outlet in a strip mall, because when I came to I had to pick some caramel corn out of my cheek where it had been pressed against a curb. I looked around and saw a crowd of people standing at the storefront window watching a bank of TV monitors, weeping and cussing. All the screens were showing airplanes crashing into these tall buildings."
"Then the screens showed hundreds and thousands of men with their foreheads to the ground and their rear parts pointing skywards and," said Skimp in a low intense voice, "I felt the earth move--as the old saying goes."
"When the President of the United States himself showed up at a Washington-area mosque the next day in his socks I knew I had found a place I could call home. I mean what other religion could command the respect and attention that Islam has since their September 11th wake up call? Even the Queen of England recently visited a mosque! Nothing succeeds like success as I always say."
In his autobiography Mainwaring compares the world-wide reception that the Moslem religion has received since September 11th with the treatment "of somebody like David Koresh, or other non-moslem American citizens."
"They're nobodies!" He exclaimed.
"I tried joining Aryan Nations but for one thing, they had almost no rules and regulations. "
At that time Skimp called himself "Biff".
"But what good did being Biff do me?" asked the young spiritual traveller.
"The minute we stuck a toe outside our clubhouse we had the Feds and local police on us like athlete's foot. Now that I am a moslem I can at least be sure of being given some respect and privacy from the US Government. I'm not like some dumb, redneck, hick Randy Weaver-type. I'm in the big leagues now."
Before the enthusiastic young convert "made it to the big leagues" as he describes it, he registered a few more spiritual bush-league try-outs.
"I moved to Utah and became a Mormon. I changed my my name to Don-o. I had always sort of admired Donny Osmond--especially the fact that he could play his own instruments. The whole family is very musical actually."
But, musical talent aside, Mainwaring found his spiritual hopes dashed again on, what he calls the "rocks of feminine gibraltar".
"Mormons aren't that different from Christians," said Skimp bitterly.
"They're almost as bad as Catholics when it comes to big-mouthed women and their big breasts which they're always waving in front of a guy's face to take his mind off the really important things."
"Thankfully, I was able to put all that behind me. And now, here I am ready to show all serious Americans how to enjoy a simple, well-regulated life."
Aside from putting the finishing touches on his forthcoming autobiography, Skimp spends a great deal of time on the internet spreading the word of Mohammed using th nom de jihad"Man in the Mirror".
"I am especially partial to discussion threads where Christians are mourning the deaths of their co-religionists at the hands of moslems," confided the young author.
"It provides a splendid opportunity for me to awaken these people to the faults of their faith and the flaws of their so-called messiah. After all, if Jesus was really "God" as Christians claim--then why are Christians the ones getting their heads cut off? Why are they the ones being driven out of countries all over the world? Why are they the ones being enslaved in Africa?
"Life," Skimp concluded-- reading from one of the many poems he has composed since submitting to Islam:
"You can't duck Life;
You have to take it;
All that Other Stuff is out there;
You can contemplate it
Or you can break it
All I know is
Allah will keep my chin
up
And his enemies won't even have a chin.
"I never knew how easy it was to write poetry," said Skimp, "until I embraced the peace of Allah."
If so, please evidence when and how was it changed or "corrupted," as Muslims claim. Do you have an original uncorrupted version? Can you provide historical indication of tampering?
Jesus, peace be with him, never claimed to be God, man made Jesus part of God.
Demons called Jesus the Son of God and feared Him. When asked, Peter called Jesus "Son of the living God" and was not corrected. Jesus said "I and the Father are One." Thomas called Jesus "My Lord and my God" after touching his hands and side and was not rebuked. Jesus said to Satan, "Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God." The Pharisees sought to kill him because "He made Himself equal with God."
Or are those all corrupted portions of the Bible, which brings us back to the first question - when and how was this done?
Man in the Mirror's Mohammedanism turns out to be power-worship. They're right because they get away with doing these violent things.
I wonder why he won't admit, then, that in fact he admires what the hijackers did on 9/11.
CNN statement about false claim it used old video
Brazilian university statement says no fact to original claim
September 20, 2001 Posted: 4:02 PM EDT (2002 GMT)
(CNN asks that you copy and e-mail this statement to whomever asks about it.)
There is absolutely no truth to the information that is now distributed on the Internet that CNN used 10-year-old video when showing the celebrating of some Palestinians in East Jerusalem after the terror attacks in the U.S. The video was shot that day by a Reuters camera crew. CNN is a client of Reuters and like other clients, received the video and broadcast it. Reuters officials have publicly made the facts clear as well.

Reuters statement on false claim it used old video
The allegation is false. The source of the allegation has withdrawn it and apologized. It was started by a Brazilian student who now says he immediately posted a correction once he knew the information was not true. This is the statement by his university -- UNICAMP -- Universidad Estatal de Campinas-Brasil.
Again, please read this -- and copy it -- and send it to anyone you know who may have the false information. Thank you.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT by Universidad de Campinas-Brasil 17/09/01
UNICAMP (Universidad Estatal de Campinas-Brasil) would like to announce that it has no knowledge of a videotape from 1991, whose images supposedly aired on CNN showing Palestinians celebrating the terrorist attacks in the U.S. The tape was supposedly from 1991, and there were rumors that the images were passed off as current.
This information was later denied, as soon as it proved false, by Márcio A. V. Carvalho, a student at UNICAMP. He approached the administration today, 17.09.2001, to clarify the following:
-- the information he got, verbally, was that a professor from another institution (not from UNICAMP) had the tape;
-- he sent the information to a discussion group e-mail list;
-- many people from this list were interested in the subject and requested more details;
-- he again contacted the person who first gave him the information and the person denied having the tape;
-- the student immediately sent out a note clarifying what happened to the people from his e-mail list. The original message, however, was distributed all over the world, often with many distortions, including a falsified by-line article from the student. He affirms that a hacker attacked his domain. Several E-mails have been sent on his behalf and those dating from 15.09.2001 should be ignored.
Among the distortions is the fact that UNICAMP would be analyzing the tape, which is absolutely false. The administration considers this alert definitive and will be careful to avoid new rumors.
what the ...
LOL
And therein lies the aswer to the international Left's flirtation with mohammedanism. At its very heart the Left worships power. All totalitarian, State-oriented systems---or State-dependant systems such as capitalism---absolutely LOVE raw, ufettered power. They love to weild it. They love to watch it being weilded against their enemies.
The Left in the West has watched ALL its "4-year plans" for the alteration of human nature sink beneath the sheer weight of the blood of the last two centuries. Now, both the Statist totalitarian Left and the globalist capitalist Left (always have been blood-brothers--always will be) turn their weary eyes to the "islamic" solution. It provides strict Law and Order--the number one priority of global capitalism--enforced ruthlessly against the "teeming masses" while leaving the wealthy elites to do as they please.
We needn't wonder why the totalitarian Statist Left loves Islam---one need only gaze at the praying posture of the men to understand what a sigh of relief will be breathed by entrenched bureaucracies all over the planet when a critical number of peons have stopped the intellectual and spiritual "restlessness" and embraced the peace of submission...
I am a Christian (though some Christians would claim otherwise I suppose), and also have had many questions that pastors couldn't answer. So I've done some digging on my own, and come up with very satisfactory answers to a lot of my questions, and since the subject is God, I know there aren't answers available for EVERY question in this life. But if you care to lay out some of your questions, I would be glad to tell you if and what I've found out that may help you (I don't claim to know everything by any means, but there is a lot of information on the internet also). I can tell you though, the answer is not in Islam, as Jesus Christ is the living Son of God, and that is contrary to the teachings of Islam. It's as simple as this: Man CANNOT live up to the Law (the old Jewish law) and Jesus Christ is the only one who can, and does, in our place. All of the laws and rules and regulations that Islam imposes on it's believers are just another form of that Law. That Law was given to increase sin, not escape from it. Everyone who tries, is going to fail, and possibly go "mental" in the process.
Peace.
So go live in a Muslim country! (Arabia, Iran, Libya, Yemen, Iraq, Egypt.....etc.) You'll feel more at home there and we in America will feel safer here.
