AMERICA! Convert to Islam or Die

The enemy does not veer off course. The left (and the UN, and the Eurabians, and the communists) may turn itself inside out to avoid the 800lb barbarian in the room but the adherents to Islam are doing it  by the book (the Koran). Islam requires that an enemy state be given the chance to convert to Islam before being attacked and killed. Very much like the letter Ahmadinejad sent to Bush here and the fatwa Osama issued back in 1998 against America.

Qaeda urges Bush, non-Muslims to embrace Islam: video

DUBAI (Reuters) - Al Qaeda called on        President Bush and non-Muslims especially in the United States to convert to Islam and abandon their 'misguided' ways or else suffer the consequences, according to a video posted on a Web site on Saturday.

The speaker was identified as Azzam the American, also known as Adam Yahiye Gadahn -- an Islamic convert from California wanted for questioning by the        FBI and who U.S. authorities believe to be involved in a "propaganda" campaign for al Qaeda.

"If the Zionist crusader missionaries of hate and counter-Islam consultants like ... the crusader and chief George W. Bush were to abandon their unbelief and repent and enter into the light of Islam and turn their swords against the enemies of God, it would be accepted of them and they would be our brothers in Islam," Gadahn said in English.

"To Americans and the rest of Christendom we say, either repent (your) misguided ways and enter into the light of truth or keep your poison to yourself and suffer the consequences in this world and the next."

UPDATEAugust 3rd: Daniel Pipes is so very excellent here. Maybe Centanni and Wiig could learn something. As Mark Steyn so eloquently and succicntly wrote, " to the Islamist mind, a society with nothing to die for is already dead."

 

	Adam Gadahn.

In a statement today, Al-Qaeda's American rep, Adam Gadahn (né Adam Perlman, whom the FBI seeks "in connection with possible terrorist threats against the United States"), has this to say:

If the Zionist crusader missionaries of hate and counter-Islam consultants like Daniel Pipes, Robert Spencer, Michael Scheuer, Steven Emerson, and yes, even the crusader-in-chief George W. Bush were to abandon their unbelief and repent and enter into the light of Islam and turn their swords against the enemies of God, it would be accepted of them and they would be our brothers in Islam."

So, Al-Qaeda wants me and my "sword" (a reference, presumably, to my computer keyboard) to join its efforts. My response to Gadahn:

I note your offer for me to change sides in the current war. But I am faithful to my own religion, to my own country, and to my civilization. I will do my part to defeat radical, totalitarian Islam and to usher in the emergence of a modern, moderate, and good-neighborly Islam in its place.

By way of postscript, Gadahn praises three Westerners: Seymour Hersh, George Galloway, and Robert Fisk. This is in keeping with Osama bin Laden's praising William Blum.

I really love what Pipes wrote. And while he has more faith in the will of moderate Islam, I pray he is right.

Radical Islamists go by "the book" when it's convenient to do so. When it's not convenient, there are plenty of mullahs who will re-interpret "the book" to suit them.

This is true Islam. The entire koran is a manual of terror.

Grand Alliance of Jews, Christians, Hindus and Sikhs

It is time to form a Grand Alliance of Jews, Christians, Hindus and Sikhs to fight and resist the clear and unacceptable Islamic threat to our cultures and our democratic ways. If our governments and leaders won't properly recognize the threat and defend us, then we owe it to our families to rise to our own defencse. Spread the word throughout the internet, and let this idea take root and grow.

Let us ally ourselves, and give those who threaten our safety the jihad they so desire - culturally, politically, and physically - before it is too late.

jdka,

All are allies except those who don't want to be (the Left, mainly).

In Genesis 16:12, G-d says: "His hand shall be against every man..." (the worldwide Islamic threat), "...and every man's hand against him" (the cure for that). "Every man" means just what it says: Jews and Greeks fighting the same fight.

Pam, you have a big fan with the obvious solution to this whole mess:

I mean, I pretended that I was a good Catholic boy in school and in church for many years and the priests were none the wiser, or possibly they were but they kept quiet for their own reasons. They're good at stuff like that. Surely, if need be, we can fake out your garden variety Imam; bunch of wankers that they are.

Carry on.

A booklet entitled “Al-Jihad” (holy war) was found in the possession of Hezbollah operatives during the latest conflict in Lebanon. The booklet, presents the Islamic teachings of Khamenei, an ideology based on jihad and shahada...
