Islamic Salami; The Temporary Islamic Caliphate




From my friend and fellow scholar at Northwest Christian University

Islamic Salami
By Nicholas Sammut

In light of the coming Temporary One World Caliphate

“The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to
eat?” So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of
Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my
blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my
blood is true drink. Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him.
As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever feeds on me, he also
will live because of me. This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like the bread the
fathers ate, and died. Whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.” Jesus said these things in
the synagogue, as he taught at Capernaum. (John 6:52-59 ESV)”

We see later in the story that many of those who walked with Jesus turned aside and stopped
following him after this unique sermonette.

Perhaps it was this misunderstanding by those who dropped off, see John 6:66, that begun the
rumors of christians being flesh eaters. More of this can be read in The Doctrine and Practices in
the Early Christian Church, Ch. God & the gods. Jesus was speaking in a metaphor (I am the
bread of life) rather than a simile (I am like bread that gives life), which the majority
understood. This is an important piece to understand for a case that I will make.

Christians were persecuted for rumors of incest and cannibalism beginning in about c. 29-32 AD.
However, the Christians new that this was a metaphor explaining the characteristics of life
through him in socially relevant terms. To jump forward in time, say about 2014: Christians
understand the representativeness in Jesus words. We understand we are not impelled to serve
up Jesus fried steaks with a side of blood. In the same manor, the Jews today do not Literally
put citizen Jews to death for various violations of the Law of Moses.

But contrary to this deliberation on behalf of religious groups who are extreme in their passions
of faith; our generation is yielding a religious group who compartmentalizes their sacred
writings into Blood Rights.

I am, of course, speaking of the great influx of militant Muslims. This group’s ideologies are the
direct action of writings such as the Hamas Charter, among others that encourage a "whatever
the cost" mentality. It is the desire for an Islamic State that encompasses the entire world. This
Shiite venture, that is, the unification of Church and State on a global scale, has been implicit in
Islamic doctrine since it’s creation in about c. 632 AD. But most religions desire their figure of
deity to be supreme. Following my comparison of the Jewish and Gentile’s ( non-Jew) belief in
God—let us deliberate.

Indeed the God of Israel said He alone was God. When Jesus ascends into heaven (see Matt.
28:16-20; Mark 16:14-20; Luke 27:47-48*) he commands that Christians should proclaim his
sovereign deity to all nations. But this has never been enforced by Christians or Jews to the
degree of which Islam does now.

We see three religions, who claim to worship and serve the same God. But the intention of the
heart, that is, the intentions by which articles becomes actions must be fixed upon the
knowledge of Jesus’ sacrifice and his saving grace that was poured out for us. Otherwise we
strive to appease a God who is incompatible with humans, who is above all human intellect or
achievement. This God, apart from Jesus Christ, can have no interpersonal relations to Man. He
is not substance. He does not know sin Because He is of nothing that has ever sinned. Indeed,
Jesus Christ is the most important occurrence that History has to tell. The person of Jesus is the
reason why the Law of Moses and the Bible is applicable to our religious institutions. If Jesus
never was, then perhaps the Jews would read every word of the Torah as literal and
mandatory. They deny Jesus to have changed their practices; but his ministry did in fact shift
the emphasis in socially productive strides.

Blood will always cry for blood. But the life of the blood is so much more than the blood itself.

OK beheading jihadist "...he was fired earlier that day for 'not liking white people'"

OK, here we go, down the rabbit hole for another adventure is spin and surrealism.  It had nothing to do with Islam, it had nothing to do with religion, Islam is a religion of peace and it must be because Jah'Keem Yisrael is a racist.

How did this come about?  His Facebook page, with pictures of a beheading and the Qur'anic quote to support beheading must not be relevant, and his exhortations to follow Islam as Muhammad did means diddly-squat.  Of course, non-Muslims know exactly what is in his head, and he couldn't possibly mean what he said, posted and did.

This is madness.

Muslim convert 'who beheaded colleague' is charged with murder as it emerges he returned to Oklahoma food plant for 'revenge' after he was fired earlier that day for 'not liking white people'

Alton Nolen, the Muslim convert accused of beheading a female colleague in Oklahoma last week, has been charged with first-degree murder in the gruesome killing.

Nolen, 30, was also charged with assault and battery with a deadly weapon for the grisly attack at Vaughan Foods in Moore last Thursday, Cleveland County prosecutor Greg Mashburn said. The DA added that officials will likely pursue the death penalty in the case.

Nolen was fired from his job on Thursday after Traci Johnson - a co-worker he later attacked - said she had had an altercation with Nolen 'about him not liking white people', Mashburn said.

Nolen then allegedly returned home and fetched a knife and 'returned to get revenge', the prosecutor said.

The criminal complaint released today states that Nolen drove to his home 'for the sole reason to retrieve a large bladed knife'. He then went back to work 'with the large knife in his shoe, in order to assault an employee of the business with the knife.'

He walked into the plant's administrative office and came across 54-year-old Colleen Hufford, whom he attacked from behind, severing her head.

He then turned his attention to Johnson, 43, whom he cut across the left side of the face and also tried to behead. She survived.

Nolen was eventually shot by the company's CEO Mark Vaughan but survived his wounds.

The affidavit adds that he 'openly admitted to "beheading" the first victim with a knife and cutting and attempting to "behead" the second victim with the knife'

Muslims are proud to kill an infidel, his admitting to the beheading should not be shocking.

He faces two assault charges in relation to Johnson and Vaughan.

Mashburn said it was 'highly likely' that he would seek the death penalty against Nolen, but would confer first with Hufford's family.

While the FBI is investigating his links to Islam, and while he believed Nolen was using Arabic terms during the attack, Mashburn said the attack seemed to be tied more to the complaints against him.

'It had more to do with race rather than trying to convert people,' Mashburn said. He said there was a 'back and forth with Ms. Johnson and that led her to make a complaint to the HR department.'

And I have a bridge for sale...

'There was some sort of infatuation with beheadings. It seemed to be related to his interest in killing someone that way,' the prosecutor said. 'Other than that, it seemed to be related to his being suspended earlier in the day.'

Anything but Islam, it has to be anything but Islam, and we will find something to distract from the truth.

No motive yet in OK jihad beheading, experts stumped

Hmmm, what could it be?  Girlfriend left him?  Not enough hugs as a kid?  Grinding poverty?  Pissed at losing his job?  Long lines at the gas station?  Who knows what drove Jah'Keem Yisrael to behead a co-worker, as it is obvious his Facebook page has nothing to do with his actions and his shouting of Islamic slogans (most likely Allahu Akbar) does not mean he used religion to justify his attack.

No, to point that out and ask if that is what drove him would be Islamophobic.

Oklahoma City beheading case leaves national security experts wondering

It’s too early to know whether the beheading of an Oklahoma food plant worker was a terrorist act or workplace violence, a top White Housenational security adviser said Sunday.

Tony Blinken, deputy national security adviser to the president, said theFBI is investigating whether the suspect, Alton Nolen, is a so-called “lone wolf” terrorist or a disgruntled worker who went on a rampage, killing and beheading one co-worker and seriously wounding another.

Nolen’s Facebook page is riddled with anti-American posts, glorification of brutal tactics used byIslamic terrorist groups, and a photo of Osama bin Laden.

“We don’t know,” Blinken said when asked directly whether the attack was an act of terror. “The FBI has an active investigation. I’m not going to get ahead of it. Let’s see what they find.”

Though Blinken appeared on at least three Sunday news shows, "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace was the only host to raise a possible terrorist connection to the Oklahoma attacks.

CNN’s Candy Crowley set up her interview with Blinken by asking about warnings from the FBI and Department of Homeland Security about lone-wolf terrorists acting alone in retaliation for the U.S. airstrikes against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. But she did not tie that discussion to the beheading in Oklahoma.

"Face the Nation" host Bob Schieffer, who also interviewed Blinken on the CBS program, made no mention of the Oklahoma attack.

Though Blinken did not appear on ABC’s "This Week," the network's senior Justice Departmentcorrespondent, Pierre Thomas, did mention Nolen’s efforts convert fellow employees to Islam in the setup of a broader discussion about homegrown terrorism.

The Obama administration was chastised for calling the 2009 shooting at Fort Hood, Texas, an act of “workplace violence” by Maj. Nidal Hassan, who espoused militant Islamic beliefs. Thirteen people died in that shooting. Hassan was later convicted of premeditated murder by a court martial and has been sentenced to death.

Nolen was fired from his job Thursday, apparently after trying to convert co-workers to Islam....

Second attempted jihad beheading in Oklahoma

terrorism



Did any mainstream media in the US carry this?  Is Jacob Murithi misunderstanding Islam when he says the Islamic State (ISIS) kills Christians?  Is he misrepresenting his peaceful religion?  

Why do we have two jihad attacks on the same day aimed at beheading non-Muslims?  The Islamic State has shown that beheadings achieve the desired result in the West; that is to "terrorize" the population and send a message that nothing is beyond the pale for Islam in its conquest of the globe.

One dead, one seriously injured and one threatened, all by Muslims.  But remember, these episodes have nothing to do with Islam and are not religiously based.

Man says he represents ISIS, threatens co-worker

Oklahoma City, Okla. — It appears to be a strange coincidence.

On the same day (Friday) Moore police announced the deadly attack inside Vaughan Foods, Oklahoma City officers arrested a fired nursing home employee for threatening to cut off a co-worker's head.

Police tell Newsok.com, Jacob Murithi had been working at the Bellevue Nursing Home in northwest Oklahoma City.

He's said to have threatened the unidentified co-worker on Sept. 19.

She told officers Murithi identified himself as a Muslim. He then mentioned he "represented ISIS and that ISIS kills Christians."

He's currently at the Oklahoma County Jail on a terrorism count. Police say his bail is set at $1 million.

Wait.  He threatened beheading and is arrested for "terrorism".  Jah'keem Yisrael actually beheads a co-worker and is accused of "workplace violence".  Did I miss the cognitive dissonance?

The Islamic State makes 6M/day on oil revenues

The airstrikes from Obama and his Arab and European partners sure are having an effect.  It is reported that we have bombed the oil facilities, has anyone asked about the environmental damage being caused by our actions?  Does anyone care?

Also, what if anything is being done to stop the flow of IS oil through the borders to the black market?

...crickets...

From ANSAmed September 25

Islamic State makes 3-6 mln dollars per day from oil revenue(
ANSAmed) - BEIRUT - Eleven oil wells in Iraq and Syria are believed to bring in over three million dollars per day to Islamic State (IS) coffers.

Israeli intelligence sources claim that the amount may be higher, as much as six million dollars per day. This is the reason behind the US airstrikes Wednesday evening on oil installations in the Deir Az-Zor province, eastern Syria. The 'Islamic Caliphate' proclaimed by Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi uses the funds - which make it the largest terrorist economic powerhouse ever - to stock up on weapons, pay its fighters well and buy off local Sunni tribes. IS controls four of the five main oil fields in Deir Az-Zor, the region with the most energy resources in Syria.

By selling oil at sharply reduced prices, say several sources in Syria, IS has been able to secure the support of armed tribal clans in both Deir Az-Zor and Raqqa, the only Syrian province entirely in its hands. In the Himrin region of Iraq's Diyala province (near the Iranian border) alone, IS is thought to be earning 600,000 dollars per day, the mayor of a city in the region, Oday Al-Khadran, stated in recent days. Khadran said that the jihadists fill about 100 tankers of oil per day and deliver it ''to ruthless retailers in Mosul or Syria. Here it is sold to foreign mediators at some 4,000 dollars for each tanker, some 80% less than market prices in Europe''.

The Islamic State destroys 1300 year old church in Iraq




Like the Buddha statues at Bam-i-yan, the Green Church in Tikrit is gone, a victim of Islamic hatred of anything non-Islamic.  This church was a World Heritage site, now it is a World Heritage site of rubble.

This is Islam.

ISIS blow up Tikrit's Green Church
(ANSA) - Cairo, September 25 - Islamic State (ISIS) militants have "completely destroyed" the iconic Green Church in the northern Iraqi city of Tikrit, the MENA news agency reported Thursday, citing Iraqi security sources.
The Islamists packed the church - one of the oldest Christian monuments in the Middle East - with explosives before detonating them.

Beheading in America: Jihad arrives in the Heartland






From a retired teacher of history and comparative religion.

Start of a new trend?
By Billy Rojas

The spin has begun, with CBS leading the way. This horrendous crime, we learn, has nothing to do with jihad or other Muslim activities in the world today. It was unrelated to anything else but this one individual's disguntledness over being terminated from a job. 

So, everybody, why don't we all get together with some "real Muslims" and have a kumbaya fest and discuss love and peace and understanding? But if, before then, another Muslim beheads a friend of yours, or your son or daughter, or aunt or uncle, hey! Rest assured that we have nothing to fear from Islam. And although Muhammad's book, the Koran, tells Muslims on the path of jihad to behead others, well, remember that there are "reformers" who are very willing to explain it all away in the name of love and peace and understanding. 

Just as there were Nazis who were willing to explain away Hitler's Mein Kampf -O, it doesn't really mean that, O, we can reform Nazism, and so forth. Hey, it is the same damned thing, one equals the other, in case you haven't noticed. 

Where will the next beheading occur in America? California? Oregon? Florida? Texas? Montana? Ohio? Wisconsin? Chicago? Maybe we should have an "office pool" to try and guess the lucky location of this event, which is sure to come, courtesy of your local friendly Muslim fanatic. 

In case you have not noticed, we are at war with Islam. They declared was on us, not the other way around, but it is war, nonetheless. In a war the best thing to do is fight to win, otherwise you lose. Of course it would help if people understand the simple fact that, yes, indeed, a war exists, like it or not. And it sure in hell is not going way by praying in away or ignoring it as if it did not exist. 

But, but, but, war is inconvenient to your plans? Gee whiz. In that case you are excused. If your son or daughter is beheaded in the meantime, or a good friend, or a co-worker, well, that wasn't "real Islam" and sleep comfortably. there is nothing to worry about.

Update: Here is Alton Nolen, aka Jah’Keem Yisrael on his Facebook page.  Nothing but Qur'anic quotations, exhortations to kill, and a graphic picture at the bottom of a beheading.  The media will take no notice of this, and maintain that this had nothing to do with Islam.

We are doomed.

Oklahoma Beheading: Fired Man's Knife Rampage

A man who had just been sacked at an Oklahoma food plant decapitated one female worker and stabbed another before he was shot and wounded by the boss.

Police said Alton Nolen, 30, was "angry" after losing his job when he launched into a knife rampage at Vaughan Foods in Moore on Thursday afternoon.

Mark Vaughn, chief operating officer of the business and also a reserve police officer, is being hailed as a hero after he shot Nolen while the suspect was stabbing a second woman.

Authorities say it appears Nolen targeted the workers at random.

The attack began at about 4pm when he went to the car park and drove his vehicle to the front of the warehouse where he hit another car.

Nolen then walked through the main entrance and began his rampage.

Police spokesman Jeremy Lewis told a press conference that Nolen's colleagues had said "he recently started trying to convert several employees to the Muslim religion".

However, it is not clear if his beliefs had any link to the attack. The FBI is also investigating the incident.

The first victim has been identified as 54-year-old Colleen Hufford.

Mr Lewis told Friday morning's press conference: "He did kill Colleen and he did sever her head."

Nolen and the second victim, 43-year-old Traci Johnson, are both in a stable condition in hospital, said police.

Muslim immigration: Too late to send them "back where they came from"




And besides, they wouldn't go anyway.  Here's why.

News sources across the world are, for the most part the same when it comes to the "who and where" of the news.  The claim that the media is unbiased and objective is, as we are all aware a sham, a great joke that all parrot but few believe. I always take what the media says with a grain of salt (size depending on which media I am looking at) while looking for the nugget of truth that is always an integral part of any news story.  That nugget, for better or worse is most likely found not in the body of the article, but in the comments after the story.  I relate these thoughts to you because as I admire the general commentors in their grasp of the problems of Islam, I do think they miss the whole picture by ignoring some basic Islamic theological underpinnings.

One theme is constant within comments posted when talking about Islam and Muslims in the West: if Muslims don't like the West they can go back where they came from.  As a corollary they ponder why, if the West is so bad did they come here to begin with?

These are the $64,000 questions.

For a while I asked the same questions, puzzled as to why one would come to a new country and then spend their time complaining about it.

With Islam and Muslims it is all about conquest.  It is a requirement within Islamic texts and tenets that Muslims must regain the land that Allah bequeathed for them, which is, not surprisingly the entire globe.

The imperative for Islam is to inhabit every country, grow through population/demographics to become a percentage of the population and, when over 5%, the agitation for separate rights begins, and demands for  accomodations and unique treatment not afforded the rest of that society slowly becomes the new norm.

Governments continually tell us that immigration is a good thing if managed properly.  Decades of unregulated immigration from Muslim countries into Europe are now bearing the result of these misguided principles; Muslim populations have risen exponentially faster than indigenous peoples, thus enabling the agitation and demands now being experienced across Europe.

To demand of Muslims that if they don't like where they live they should move ignores the underlying principle, that of conquest of Muslim lands occupied by the infidel.  They are here because they are supposed to be here, their complaints, demands and rancor are part and parcel of the program Islamic doctrine demands of pious Muslims.  They will not leave, they will not flee, they will not budge.  The plan is clear to anyone who understands Islamic doctrine, unfortunately those who should know these things are the least equipped to handle the looming problem, most of all because they refuse to accept what jihadists tell us: that the fighting is due mainly to Islamic theology.

Islam drives the immigrants.  Islam demands the conversion, subjugation or death for non-believers. Islam is spreading across the West, aided by its useful idiots, apologists and water-carriers that tell us over and over that what the jihadists say means the opposite, that they misunderstand Islam and really don't believe what they say to us.

Cognitive dissonance of Biblical proportions.

Somali immigrants in Minnesota are leaving America to fight for Islam in Iraq with the Islamic State. Americans in the hundreds have joined Islam to fight for the way of Allah.  They come here and to Europe as an immigrant, refuse to assimilate and instead create their own little Muslim enclaves. Tower Hamlets, Birmingham, Luton, even London itself are now experiencing Islamic unrest, some areas even have their own sharia police and the country has officially allowed sharia courts to run concurrent with English courts.

The city of Dearborn, Michigan is the first American city to adopt sharia courts.  No wonder, as Dearborn is ironically known as "Dearbornistan" due to the high (over 40%) populaltion of Muslims there.  Muslims do not want to go back to "where they came from" because they are already "where they need to be" in order to impliment the dictates of Islam: convert, subjugate or kill.

For those who whine about Muslims whining, just remember that the whine of Islam is to be followed by a cacophony of bitter cheese, ending in soft-spoken capitulation to the rhetoric of "Islamophobia" and racism because, after all we don't want to be seen as intolerant.

Muslim immigration should cease immediately and a system created where the accepting countries can fully, truthfully and honestly vet and approve someone from an Islamic country.  Until then, we will see more immigration of Muslims, a good number of them bringing their supremacist agenda with them.

The end result of no action on this deadly Muslim immigrant threat will not be a good one for the infidel.

House approves arming our enemies, aid to flow to the Free Syrian Army

Wait for this worm to turn.  When it does, we are in for a world of hurt.  We can thank Obama for our demise and history will record this administration as being responsible for the "clash of civilizations" foretold by Samuel Huntington in his 1994 book of the same name.

House approves Obama request for Syria in broad bipartisan vote

The House overwhelmingly voted Wednesday to grant President Obama authority to train and arm moderate Syrian rebels waging war against Islamic extremists.

Despite vocal opposition from both war-weary liberals and defense hawks who feel the Syria plan should include more robust steps, majorities in both conferences voted 273-156 to back Obama’s plan to give military aid to vetted members of the Free Syrian Army.

The “yes” vote was made up of 159 Republicans and 114 Democrats; opposition was just as bipartisan, with 85 Democrats and 71 Republicans voting no. The Syria language was considered as an amendment to a stopgap funding bill to avert a government shutdown on Oct. 1.

A coalition of unusual bedfellows voted against the amendment, including Democratic Reps. Jim McGovern (Mass.) and Barbara Lee (Calif.) and Republican Reps. Michele Bachmann (Minn.) and Steve Stockman (Texas). Members on such opposite sides of the ideological spectrum rarely vote together on major issues.

That $1 trillion continuing resolution (CR) easily cleared the House in a 319-108 vote and was sent over to the Senate, which is expected to pass it on Thursday.

“You saw Republicans and Democrats come together,” the new majority whip, Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.), told reporters after the vote. “The president asked for an authorization, and we approved that authorization with some accountability steps in place.”

Earlier in the day, Obama pledged that he would not send in ground troops to fight the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), saying it’s more effective to support military allies “so they can secure their own countries future.”

The president’s comments were aimed at soothing members unnerved by comments a day earlier from the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Gen. Martin Dempsey raised the possibility that U.S. ground troops could be used against ISIS on a “case-by-case” basis.

“I will not commit you, and the rest of our Armed Forces, to fighting another ground war in Iraq,” Obama declared flatly during an appearance at Florida’s MacDill Air Force Base, which houses U.S. Central Command.

Wednesday’s vote teed up a larger debate over whether Congress should vote to authorize a broader war against ISIS fighters. Members of both parties said Congress should consider a full authorization of military force against the terror group — or at least have that fight out in the open.

“I think more and more members are beginning to understand that this is the beginning of what I think is going to be a very necessary and intense debate about what we should be doing there,” said Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.), co-chairman of the Progressive Caucus and a “no” vote on the Syria amendment and CR.

“I think it will be a lame-duck debate,” he said.

The narrower Syria amendment, introduced by House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon (R-Calif.) and backed by congressional leaders in both parties, places some restrictions on the president’s authority.

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel would have to notify lawmakers at least 15 days before beginning any training of Syrian rebels, and would have to ensure all fighters being trained in the program receive background checks. The Pentagon also would be required to provide status briefings to Congress every 90 days.

But the McKeon amendment explicitly does not authorize the use of military force against ISIS.

White House officials have argued that the military authorization passed by Congress in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks has allowed them to carry out targeted air strikes against ISIS in Iraq.

But there are Republicans and Democrats alike who want to see a vote on a full-scale military authorization in the near future — a way to ensure Congress doesn’t cede its constitutional power to declare war.

Bachmann, who voted against the amendment, said that the U.S. should establish a full-scale military authorization instead of using potentially unreliable Syrian rebels as a proxy to fight ISIS.

“It seems to me we should take our best possible tool, which is the United States military, and with all resources at our fingertips, defeat the Islamic State as quickly as we possibly can,” said Bachmann, who serves on the Intelligence Committee.

Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mike McCaul (R-Texas), who backed the Syria measure, said it would be his “strong desire” for Congress to vote on full authorization.

“You’ve got the War Powers Act expiring,” he told The Hill, “but I think with the threat landscape evolving the way it has been, you’d have to update it.”

US weapons now being used by the Islamic State

And where did they get these weapons from?  They stole, appropriated or were given these weapons by the Free Syrian Army, the same group Obama has been arming.  After all, they are the "moderates" in Syria and thus must be supported against Assad.

There is no chance they will use the weapons against us, right?

Right?

Islamic State fighters using US arms – Report

Islamic State fighters appear to be using captured US military issue arms and weapons supplied to moderate rebels in Syria by Saudi Arabia, according to a report published on Monday.

The study by the London-based small-arms research organisation Conflict Armament Research documented weapons seized by Kurdish forces from militants in Iraq and Syria over a 10-day period in July.

The report said the jihadists disposed of “significant quantities” of US-made small arms including M16 assault rifles and included photos showing the markings “Property of US Govt”.

It also found that anti-tank rockets used by IS in Syria were “identical to M79 rockets transferred by Saudi Arabia to forces operating under the Free Syrian Army umbrella in 2013″.

The rockets were made in the then Yugoslavia in the 1980s.

Islamic State is believed to have seized large quantities of weapons from Syrian military installations it has captured, as well as arms supplied by the United States to the Iraqi army after it swept through northern Iraq in recent weeks.

Obama supports the Free Syrian Army - Free Syrian Army supports the Islamic State

Cognitive Dissonance on a massive scale from the White House.  This time we are willingly providing our enemy with the weapons of our demise.  To say the FSA has been "vetted" is the same as saying a man standing in front of Niagara Falls will get slightly damp.
"We are collaborating with the Islamic State and the Nusra Front by attacking the Syrian Army’s gatherings in… Qalamoun,” said Bassel Idriss, a commander of a Free Syrian Army brigade"

So there you go.  Arming those who want us dead just makes so much sense, doesn't it"

DAILY JIHAD: OBAMA'S 'VETTED' FREE SYRIAN ARMY JOINING FORCES WITH ISLAMIC STATE TERROR GROUP
The US-backed Free Syrian Army (FSA), Al Nusra Front, and the Islamic State have paired together in order to fight President Bashar al-Assad’s Syrian Armed Forces, according to statements from multiple commanders from within the FSA.

“We are collaborating with the Islamic State and the Nusra Front by attacking the Syrian Army’s gatherings in… Qalamoun,” said Bassel Idriss, a commander of a Free Syrian Army brigade. “Our battle is with the Assad regime, and it is on Syrian lands only,” he told to Lebanon’s Daily Star.

According to another Free Syrian Army commander, the combining of forces with the Islamist terror outfits was needed in order to achieve the greater good. “We have reached a point where we have to collaborate with anyone against unfairness and injustice,” said FSA commander Abu Khaled. “Let’s face it: The Nusra Front is the biggest power present right now in Qalamoun and we as FSA would collaborate on any mission they launch as long as it coincides with our values,” the commander concluded.

Over the weekend, President Obama told NBC’s Chuck Todd: “we have a Free Syrian Army and a moderate opposition that we have steadily been working with that we have vetted. They have been on the defensive, not just from ISIL, but also from the Assad regime. And what-you know, if you recall, at the West Point speech that I gave, I said, we need to put more resources into the moderate opposition..”

In July, several factions within the Free Syrian Army decided to pledge allegiance to the Islamic State terror group....

Mother of Muslim convert killed in Syria forms "de-radicalization" program

Mother of dead Canadian jihadi speaks out
Damian Clairmont



Interesting to note that it is a non-Muslim who feels the need to gather resources and support to begin to try and de-fuse jihad activity in Canada.  Shouldn't it be the mosques, madrassas and Muslim leaders leading the charge against jihad and fundamental Islamic ideology?

Is there an agenda afoot here?  Why wouldn't Islamic leaders be the loudest voices in a program such as this?  Could it be that they cannot, on theological grounds dispute the Islamic States claim that they are following the dictates of Muhammad and the words in the Qur'an?  In other words, they are unable to counter true Islam with any kind of doctrinal/scriptural rebuttal, thus their silence in responding and their accusations that anyone questioning their motives must be an Islamophobe.

Mother of dead Canadian jihadi launches de-radicalization effort

The mother of Damian Clairmont, a Calgary man who in January died fighting with ISIS in Syria, says she's tired of waiting for Canada to take action on de-radicalization. She is starting her own program for families of Canadian jihadis so other mothers don't lose their sons to the clutches of extremism.

"It's a lot to take on, but I don't know what else to do," Christianne Boudreau said.

"I have no choice at this point, because I can't just let Damian die in vain and that's the end of it, and just walk away from it and let it happen to another family ... I can't."

In her Calgary basement office, Boudreau's computer fights for space on her small desk with copies of letters that were sent over the past year and rarely answered; to the Prime Minister, to the chief of the Calgary police, to the head of CSIS.

Her questions were broad and pained; How is it that even though CSISwas apparently watching and worrying about her son’s growing extremism, no one informed her until it was too late and he was already in Syria?

In one letter she asks, “If my son was under surveillance for two years in respect to the suspicion of his participation in a potential terrorist organization, how was he able to obtain a passport two months prior to his leaving Canada?”

It would have been Islamophobic to profile her son.

She has also been desperate for emotional support for both herself and her other children, who are still trying to fathom how their big brother Damian could transform so profoundly and become a fighter with ISIS.

Not much help has been forthcoming.

“I had no one to reach out to, there was nobody who understood what I was going through," Boudreau says. "It was like I was in a bad movie and I couldn’t make it stop.”

[Watch Adrienne Arsenault's feature story "A Mother's Instinct" on The National tonight (Sept. 9) at 9 p.m. ET on CBC News Network and 10 p.m. ET on CBC Television.]

Boudreau tried connecting with other parents in Canada, looking for just one person she could talk with about the horrible guilt and fear and questions that swirl around her constantly: “What did I do wrong? How could the child I raised be hurting or killing people?”

She knows she’s not alone in this. There are dozens of family members of other Canadian jihadis out there who are just as mystified and horrified. But almost all are staying silent, coping far away from the public spotlight.

With no-one in the government or her community answering Boudreau’s calls for help, this summer she went searching in Europe for programs to bring home to Canada. She also found someone who understood her angst, a woman named Domnique Bons in Toulouse, France.

Like Boudreau, Bons’ politically astute son Nicholas converted to Islam and started changing fundamentally. He became obsessed with the plight of the Syrians and vowed to act, not just talk.

By early 2012 he was talking of feeling uncomfortable living amongst non-Muslims in France, and soon after that he was in Syria, along with his younger half-brother Jean Daniel. Both ended up joining ISIS. And both died - Nicholas as a suicide bomber.

Like Boudreau, Bons took the bold and lonely step of speaking out publicly. And like Boudreau, she found that few families were willing to connect with her.

Egypt offers Sinai to the refugees, Abbas refuses

If true, this would have been as close to a real peace as has been offered in 60+ years.  A country five times larger than today and more than enough room for all refugees to return and build a new life.

But no, Abbas cannot agree to this because it removes the impetus to destroy Israel ans scatter the Jews to the four winds.  The only goal that interests Hamas, Fatah, the Islamic State and all other Islamic groups is for all the Jews to die and Israel relegated to the dustbin of history.  Nothing less will suffice, so the offer of a country of their own will remain a non-starter.

Egypt's Sisi Offered Abbas Creation of Palestinian State in Sinai Peninsula

Egyptian President General Abdel Fatah al-Sisi has offered Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas the chance to create a Palestinian state in the Sinai Peninsula, according to local Israelimedia.

The offer to the Palestinian President which, reports say Abbas has denied, would have seen 1,600 square kilometres of the Sinai Peninsula given to the Palestinian Authority, creating a Palestinian state five times the size of Gaza.

According to IDF Radio, the offer would see Abbas relinquish demands that Israel return to the 1967 borders.

In the new and enlarged Gaza, the territory would be demilitarised and Palestinian refugees, many who were unable to return to their towns after the creation of Israel, would have been able to settle there.

As part of the proposal, Palestinian cities in the occupied West Bank would have been autonomous and continued to be under Palestinian Authority control.

Sisi allegedly said to Abbas in the meeting: "You are now 80 years old, if you don't accept this proposal, your successor will."

The Palestinian Authority is yet to publicly comment on the initiative but unnamed sources said that Abbas rejected the deal in a meeting with Sisi.

The Israeli military radio station said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had knowledge of the offer and that the United States had given its approval to such an idea.

An idea along the same lines was introduced years ago by Israeli academics but Egypt rejected the proposal.

Son of Hamas founder explains the war on "terrorism"

The West and their media lapdogs always portray Islam as a religion which is just as equal, peaceful and tolerant as any other, denying what jihadist and Islamists say about why they fight.  The willful denial exhibited by Islamic apologists is so palpable you can chew on it.  Anyone who questions the motives of Islam or Muslims is immediately labeled a "Islamophobe", not worthy of dialogue or even acknowledgement they exist.

I would imagine then, that Mosab Hassan Yousef would be seen as not just an apostate to be killed, but also as the worst kind of Islamophobe; one who used to be Muslim but converted to a believer in Christ.  His words on why we must fight are too important to ignore, yet those in power will do just that.  The denial permeates every cranny of Western thinking, making it impossible to address the root causes of why our enemy wants us dead.

If our dear leaders will not listen to someone who was born into the most virulent kind of Islam and knows from where he speaks, then we are doomed.

Convert to Islam beheads 82 year old grandmother

I know, it's as if the brutal reality will never abate, and the depths to which the darkness of mans soul resides will never be emptied.

Palmira Silva deserved none of this, pray for heaven to accept her.

From The Telegraph September 4 by Tom Whitehead, Ed Malnick, Tom Brooks Pollock and Gordon Rayner

Woman beheaded 'with machete' in north London garden
An 82-year-old woman was beheaded in a north London suburban garden by a man with a machete.

Palmira Silva, a widow and grandmother described as “such a sweet lady” by one neighbour, was killed outside her home in Edmonton in a random but frenzied assault by a 25-year-old.

Witnesses said they saw the man, wielding a foot-long blade, attack a passing vehicle and a cat before roaming back gardens looking for a victim.

Police believe he also tried to attack two people at another home in the street, but they were able to escape without injury.

The man was arrested after armed officers, who had distracted him to prevent further attacks, cornered him in a house and brought him down with a Taser stun gun. Some officers were injured.

Mrs Silva, who was of Italian descent, was pronounced dead at the scene.

One line of inquiry for detectives is understood to be that the man was inspired by recent footage of terrorists beheading two American journalists in Syria.

Some residents claimed last night that the suspect was a local man who had converted to Islam last year, but those claims could not be verified. Detectives said they had ruled out terrorism.

Willful blindness to the possible connection with Islamic doctrine, for to ask such questions would, of course be "Islamophobic".

German jihadists enforce shariah law in Germany

Police throw book at Shariah vigilantes

Charges of unlawful assembly and use of uniform in public were brought against 11 members of a group trying to enforce aspects of strict Islamic Sharia law in the North Rhine-Westphalia city, a spokeswoman for the Wuppertal police told The Local.

Officers stopped the 11-man group on the street on Wednesday. Some were wearing orange vests bearing the words 'Shariah Police', in violation of federal German law, the spokeswoman said.

The group has been stopping young people at local drinking and gambling establishments and urging them to abstain from activities deemed to be ungodly according to Islam.

The Wednesday incident was the first time they had directly violated the law, and no formal complaints had been made against them.

"There is no evidence that they have intimated anybody," the spokeswoman said, adding that talks were under way between integration authorities and local mosque leaders to address the situation.
Wednesday was also the day the group created its Facebook account, which by Friday had been 'Liked' by more than 1,500 visitors.

"Can a vest and a name really cause so much headache?" the group posted on its page after the encounter with police.

"What have all the grumblers now coming out of the woodwork done for wayward youth?" it also asked. "Do you realize how many are buying and consuming drugs? If you are so honest and good, where is your shrieking and outrage?"

Don't cross the line, warn police

Meanwhile, the Wuppertal police on Friday released a statement pledging to crack down on anyone seeking to take the law into their own hands, especially with any use of intimidation or force.

"The state has an exclusive monopoly on the use of force," reminded local police chief Birgitta Radermacher. "Any conduct that intimidates, provokes or makes people insecure will not be tolerated. These 'Sharia Police' have no legitimacy," she added.

There had been repeated attempts, especially at night time, by members of the Salafi Islamist community to influence and recruit young people, the statement said.

Police presence in the city centre had been strengthened and citizens were urged to report sightings of the group, which has said it will expand its activities in other towns.

The group reportedly identifies itself with the Salafi movement, an ultra-conservative sub-group within Islam with a strong following in the Middle East. Most of the world's Salafis are from Qatar, UAE and Saudi Arabia.

Bastions of friendship, we are continuously told.
Authorities in North Rhine-Westphalia have expressed concern at the implications of ad hoc community 'patrols' by its members here.

"In this way they are demonstrating that they do not recognized our law-based state," an interior ministry spokesperson told the Rheinischer Post newspaper.

Obama fantasyland trip: "We’re going to degrade and ultimately defeat ISIL (IS’s previous name) the same way we’ve gone after al-Qaeda"

I imagine he really believes that and is trying to convince the rest of us that there is no real threat, that the Islamic State will fall prey to American might and right, just like Al-Qaeda.

The problem is that Al-Qaeda had not been defeated, the seventh branch of Al-Qaeda just opened in India.  Will Obama retract his statement that Al-Qaeda have been defeated after reading this news?  Don't hold your breath, blue is not your color.

Obama policy on "terrorism"=madness.

Obama: We will defeat ISIS like we did al-Qaeda

US President Barack Obama said Friday he was confident he could gather a broad international coalition to defeat Islamic State extremists in Iraq and Syria, following two days of talks at the NATO summit
“I leave here confident that NATO allies and partners are prepared to join in a broad, international coalition,” Obama said after a meeting of the Western military alliance in Wales. “We’re going to degrade and ultimately defeat ISIL (IS’s previous name) the same way we’ve gone after al-Qaeda,” he said.

Following the beheading of two US journalists by the Islamic State, which has overrun swaths of northern Iraq and Syria, Obama said there was “unanimity” among NATO members that the group “poses a significant threat”.

Obama cautioned that “it’s not going to happen overnight”, but “we’re going to achieve our goal".

You can kill the man (or men) but until you address what drives the actions (Islamic doctrine) you will never kill the threat.

Steven Sotloff is the second American journalist beheaded by the Islamic State




"So just as your missiles continue to strike our people, our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people"

So says Jihad John, the un-identified murderer seen in the video.  The MSM are not showing the video, claiming it is too graphic.  I believe we should see it, to always remind us of who we are fighting.

As long as no one addresses the ideology which drives the jihadists, we will continue to see beheadings.  As long as PC reigns supreme, we will witness continued atrocities.  No one is willing to say what the doctrine is that makes these horrific acts possible because they would immediately be labeled "Islamophobic" and a bigot as well as racist.  No, this has nothing to do with Islam, we are told, all to the detriment of free people everywhere, and especially victims like Sotloff and Foley.

There will soon be others.  We don't know how to wage war anymore, and that will get us all killed.

My prayers to the Sotloff family.  May God seat Steven at His right hand.

Video purportedly shows beheading of U.S. hostage Steven J. Sotloff

The Islamic State militant group released a video today purporting to show the beheading of U.S. hostage Steven J. Sotloff.

A masked figure in the video also issued a threat against a British hostage, a man the group named as David Haines, and warned governments to back off "this evil alliance of America against the Islamic State", the SITE Intelligence Group monitoring service said.

The purported executioner appeared to be the same British-accented man who appeared in an Aug. 19 video showing the killing of American journalist James Foley, and it showed a similar desert setting. In both videos, the captives wore orange jumpsuits.

"I'm back, Obama, and I'm back because of your arrogant foreign policy towards the Islamic State, because of your insistence on continuing your bombings and ... on Mosul Dam, despite our serious warnings," the man said.

"So just as your missiles continue to strike our people, our knife will continue to strike the necks of your people."

In the video, Sotloff describes himself as "paying the price" for the U.S. intervention in Iraq with his life.

Sotloff, a freelance journalist, was kidnapped in Syria in August 2013. Sotloff's mother Shirley appealed on Aug. 27 in a videotaped message to Islamic State's self-proclaimed caliph, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, for her son's release.

The White House said it could not immediately confirm the authenticity of the video. White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters in a briefing that if there is such a video, it would be analyzed very carefully, adding that the administration's thoughts and prayers were with Sotloff's family.

Shortly before the briefing, the SITE monitoring service said the militant group had released the video.
