It is honestly not my wish to scare you, but to keep showing you examples of how our traditional American way of thinking is not shared by the 100 million Muslims who believe that Islam is superior to all other religions. YES- Only a fraction of this number are terrorists, but when the remaining 99,000,000 Muslims all are quiet, what are we supposed to think? True, there are moderate and "former" Arab muslims speaking up, but they are as yet a teeny number and they need our support!!! They are the courageous ones; we should be rallying to their side and learning from their stories. The 100,000 radical vocal muslims that are terrorizing the world are the only ones left shouting as they kill people- Americans and Israelis, especially. History tells us to that to ignore or appease a bully is trouble. Think Hitler. Think about the Crusades, which were a defensive response to over 500 yrs of Islamic agression. Check your facts, this stuff is true. I can give you two or three citations to check if you want. How long are we supposed to be "culturally sensitive" to a US religous minority group that says we will be conquered from "within" (our borders) by their higher Muslim birth rates and our own freedoms of speech/religion used against us, like we see in Europe right now? We don't see this as a hot issue right now in Fort Wayne IN today, but many other cities do. Ask Dearborn MI or New York, or Arlington VA, or Chicago IL where three new mosques are being built right now. This is much to think about. I am challenging you to manage your fear and think through the facts. To connect the dots. The important things is- there are many positive things one can do about this... we are Americans first! America still has her freedom of speech! If you want to do something about this, just let me know, I have many things to share. Like, simply speak up to your friends/family about this. This would not be tolerated one bit if this were about black and white racism. Because Islam is a religion vs/ other religions, people stay silent. Why? Out of fear that more terrorism will happen? When do Americans draw a line? Appeasement/accomodation hasn't worked in Europe.... hm. Remember when citizens stood up to the white supremecists in the South in the 1960's? People just had enough, and stopped it with civic action/litigation/ grassroots pressure. Well, now we have the radical religious supremacists telling us we ALL (CHristians, Jews, Hindus, gays, atheists) are inferior to THEM, because we are not worshipping Allah. What next? I know most Americans disagree with this crap, but are not comfortable dissing another religion. We just need to call it what it is, religious supremacism, and not tolerate it. Thanks for letting me bend your ear. see below for the Australian article explaining the Islamic connection to the Mumbai bombings. Beth Griffin Ft Wayne IN Chapter Leader Once again we have witnessed an Islamic terrorist attack incited and justified through appeals to Islam by its perpetrators. On one level it is understandable why so many in the West are unwilling or unable to connect the militant ideology of political Islam to the thousands of Islamic terror attacks that have been committed worldwide since 9/11. We extol the virtues of tolerance and pluralism and believe others in the world do so as well, so it is easy to dismiss such attacks as the work of a few extremists, rather than the product of adherence to an ideology. The fatal flaw in this thinking is this: How can we successfully win a war on Islamic terrorism if we dont correctly define the threat doctrine that motivates its adherents? It is argued that most of the worlds Muslims are not terrorists. While true, this fact is irrelevant. Most of the worlds Muslims have never read the Quran or the Hadith in a language they can understand. They have not read the hundreds of passages that call for jihad against infidels, nor do they renounce such passages. They do not organize en masse to denounce the terrorist acts perpetrated by other Muslims in the name of Islam, nor do they denounce the frequent exhortations to world subjugation found in the holy books of Islam. Yes, there are Muslims who have denounced the Mumbai attacks. But examine their denunciations closely and you will be hard-pressed to find renunciations of the supremacist doctrine of political Islam -- the foundation for jihad -- which emanates from its holy books. This is the justification commonly cited by terrorists for their actions. We in the West must come to grips with the uncomfortable fact that terrorism is a symptom of this militant, supremacist ideology. Terrorism is a means to an end, not an end in itself. And it is but one of many means used by those who are devoted to the supremacist ideology of political Islam. Religious head incited killers Bruce Loudon, South Asia correspondent | December 01, 2008 Article from: The Australian http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,24731818-2703,00.html THE al-Qa'ida-linked Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorists suspected over the Mumbai massacre were trained in Muzaffarabad, capital of Pakistan-controlled Kashmir, and were incited by speeches from their leader in Lahore. As the sole surviving terrorist was interrogated in Mumbai, security sources told The Australian that 10 terrorists were picked by LET for the suicide mission. They were ordered to "kill until your last breath" and murder up to 5000 people. They did so after provocative speeches by Hafiz Mohammed Saeed last month in Lahore, capital of the Punjab. Saeed, described as LET's supreme religious and political head, declared in one speech: "The only language India understands is that of force, and that is the language it must be talked to in." The email claiming responsibility for the Mumbai attack minutes after it started last Wednesday was generated on a computer based in Pakistan. And a satellite telephone captured from the terrorists revealed calls made to numbers in Pakistan during the attacks, reports said. Officials said the terrorists' route to Mumbai had been recorded on GPS co-ordinates contained in the satellite phones. Sources said the 10 terrorists -- most of whom were believed to be Pakistanis -- were ordered to undergo training to attack Mumbai. The captured gunman, Ajmal Amir Kamal, 21, reportedly told intelligence sources the group had trained openly in Muzaffarabad before heading to the nearby Mangala dam for lessons in marine commando techniques. The group then visited Rawalpindi, which adjoins Islamabad, the Pakistan capital and site of the Pakistan army headquarters. >From there, the group took a train to the port city of Karachi, where, heavily armed, they boarded a freighter for the trip to Mumbai. Along the way, they became nervous about Indian coastguard activity and almost aborted the mission. They "dragooned" a less conspicuous, passing fishing boat into service, shooting dead four of its crew members. The skipper of the fishing boat and another crew member took them closer to Mumbai before they, too, were killed. One was decapitated and the other had his throat slit. Close to shore, they transferred to small speedboats for the run into the two landing points they had selected in Mumbai - Sassoon Docks and Badhwar Park, on Cuff Parade. Conflicting evidence obtained by intelligence agencies suggests that the group may have had local support, and that one or more of its members may have been staying locally, possibly even in the Taj Mahal hotel. A British link to the attacks was raised over the weekend when a senior Indian official claimed that Britons were among the militants. Vilasrao Deshmukh, the chief minister of Maharashtra state, in which Mumbai lies, was quoted on an Indian television station as saying that British citizens had been detained. British MP Patrick Mercer, a former Tory security spokesman, said he had been given information that at least two of the terrorists had credit cards and other identifying documents that linked them to Dewsbury, West Yorkshire, in northeast England. The claims, however, were not substantiated by official British sources, who said there was no evidence "at this stage" that Britons had taken part in the attacks, although they acknowledged that events were "moving fast" and more information was emerging about the nationality of the terrorists. MI5 and British counter-terrorist police are keeping in close touch with their counterparts in India and are alert to the possibility that Britons with Pakistani origins might have been involved. Significant numbers of young British Pakistanis have taken part in terrorist training in Pakistan. British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said that there was no evidence of Britons being involved, and the Foreign Secretary David Miliband said: "We obviously will want to work very closely with the Indians but it is too early to say whether or not any of them are British." Malaysian police are investigating reports that Malaysian-issued credit cards were found in the belongings of the terrorists involved in the Mumbai attacks. Home Minister Syed Hamid Albar said Malaysia had no links with the terrorists, responding to an Indian report that nine of the gunmen claimed to be Malaysian students when they travelled to Mumbai several months ago. Terror analyst Praveen Swami said that at a meeting of key LET leaders in Lahore on October 19, LET leader Saeed, who insists he is only head of the Jamaat-ud-Dawa welfare organisation, made plain his view of Pakistan's neighbour. "India, he claimed, was building dams in (Indian-controlled) Jammu and Kashmir to choke Pakistan's water supplies and cripple its agriculture," Mr Swami reported Saeed as saying. "Earlier, in an October 6 speech, Saeed claimed that India had 'made a deal with the United States to send 150,000 Indian troops to Afghanistan' and that it agreed to support the US in its existential war against Islam. "Finally, in a sermon to a congregation at the Jamia Masjid al-Qudsia (mosque) in Lahore at the end of October, Saeed proclaimed that there was an 'ongoing war in the world between Islam and its enemies'. "He claimed that 'crusaders of the East and West have united in a cohesive onslaught against Muslims'." ------------------------------------ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
