Cordoba House, Park51: A Rose Is A Rose
August 25, 2010
"A rose by any other name"..."a rose is a rose"...Shakespeare and Stein were spot on. Changing the nomenclature of something, does not change it's essence. It is, what it is.
And so is the case of the hotly contested Ground Zero Mosque, or the Cordoba House. It's NOW being called Park51. Oh, how hip! How chic! How surreptitious...
It's well known, in the Muslim world, the significance of symbolism. The historical significance of Cordoba, Spain is huge. And the Mosque built there, after the destruction of a Christian Church, symbolized a tremendous conquest by the Moors in 711. And the head of the Cordoba Initiative, Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, knows this. And it was the precise reason he originally called his initiative AND the Mosque itself, Cordoba.
Then an unexpected phenomenon occurred: All those nasty infidels used the brains the Creator (not Allah) gave them and found out the meaning behind the name, Cordoba. Those little misunderstanders of Islam...
So they forced the poor, victimized Imam on to plan B...the Park51 nomenclature appears.
What would provoke the Imam to change the name of the Cordoba House? Wasn't his long-plotted monument of conquest named correctly? Was it easier to rename the Mosque than explain its symbolism?
"A rose by any other name" still has thorns...and this rose's stem is loaded with pricks...
Shalom through strength...

Ali Baba And The PA State
August 24, 2010
Yup...we've all heard about it at one point in our lives...the fictional story about Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. A thief, who outsmarts some other thieves...and so on. In the Arab world, Ali Baba is a slang term for a miscreant...thief included in that category.
But while everyone is focused on the fecklessness of another round of futile talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA), there are newly radicalized Israeli Arabs who are blatantly stealing Israel's land...
Aka Ali Babas...
The Bedouins, a nomadic group of Arabs, are slowly but surely being radicalized, and these radicalized elements inside the Bedouin community have created links with groups such as al-Qaeda. They have begun to defiantly steal Jewish land as squatters. A passive-aggressive technique...ALWAYS playing the victim, when confronted.
These ignorant, disinformed, squatters perpetuate the claim that the land has belonged to the 'palestinians' since biblical times.
Yeah...my Aunt Fanny...
Here are 3 simple reasons that this is preposterous:
The name "Palestina" or "Palestine" was a nomenclature created by the Romans. They wanted to rename Eretz Yisrael (the Land of Israel) after the Philistines, the historical enemy of the Jews. It was only coined by Rome in 136 A.D.. For virtually 2,000 years Jews were the only 'Palestinians' the world acknowledged.
Islam was only founded in 610 A.D.
Arabs first arrived in Israel with the Muslim invasion in 637 A.D. (Muslim conquest of Jerusalem.)
So, while the PA is busy BSing about 'peace' talks AGAIN, and their jihadist brethren are inflicting fear on the infidels...the poor nomadic Ali Babas are stealing Jewish terrain with their collective, hateful tukis...
With this type of example of 'love' and 'brotherhood', it almost makes me want a Mosque at Ground Zero...
Shalom through strength...

Hate: A Hard Habit To Break
August 18, 2010
The tolerance of intolerance in a society speaks volumes about the heart of that culture. The line between right and wrong becomes blurred. It increases crime against the innocent. And the disdain of government officials toward a people group and State for merely being who they are...is even more appalling.
Enter Norway...
A country with a history of Jew-hatred dating back to the Vikings (1200s). And, during WWII, their brutal behavior toward Jews in helping the Nazis round them up for the death camps...is a vile memory for many.
But when you've hated, and tolerated hatred, as long as the natives of The Land of the Midnight Sun have...it's a hard habit to break...
Case in point...it appears that the Norwegians have a similar dictionary to that of Muslim terrorists. In Islam, there will only be 'peace' when the entire world is dominated by Islam through either conversion, enslavement or death of the infidels. Yet, with this knowledge out there for all to see, many leaders (our country included) continue to refer to Islam as the 'religion of peace'. Now the Norwegian Deputy Minister (Socialist-Left), Ingrid Fiskaa, told a newspaper that she dreamed about the UN sending rockets against Israel. And she's considered a 'dove'...
Aww...how precious...just like those 'peace-lovers' in the West Bank, that the Norwegians adore...dreaming of pieces OF the Israelis, not peace WITH the Israelis.
And this is on the heels of the most violent anti-Israel, anti-Jewish riot in Norway history (2009)...where several government officials were sighted. Norwegian Finance Minister Kristin Halvorsen was seen smiling during the Anti-Israel demonstration. Signs around her read, "The greatest axis of evil: USA and Israel." Halvorsen's fellow protestors were also shouting "kill the Jews."
I'm sorry, what chapter was that in Dale Carnegie's, "How to Win Friends and Influence People"? Must have missed it...
The indisputable hatred for Jews is apparently so deep that a government official is unafraid to be seen on camera with the vile...which makes her vile as well...
As far as I'm concerned, Norway's government has given up its membership in the human race. Their behavior is reprehensible.
In conclusion, here's a question: Why haven't the other member states in the UN reprimanded Norway for this? Sounds like a reasonable question...but it's also rhetorical. The UN is the biggest appeaser of the intolerant...and ALL against Israel.
Hate is a hard habit to break.
Shalom through strength...

'Palestinians': Friend Or Faux
August 17, 2010
Imitation leather, artificial crab, fake diamonds...we're all familiar with these and more. They are the faux array we live with daily, for various reasons. But in the Middle East, there's a faux people group that has become an axiomatic populace that has been fooling the gullible...and just continues the masquerade...
The so-called 'palestinian' people oddly were not an issue until the end of the Six Day War. And numerous Arab Muslims (i.e. PLO Exec. Zahir Muhsein; King Abdullah of Jordan; Prince Hassan of Jordanian Assembly; Jordan PM Abdul Hamid Sharif and King Hussein) have all stated that there was never a 'palestinian' people OR nation of Palestine. The 'palestinian' campaign has been the greatest fraud perpetrated on the world...and sadly, the ever-increasing Jew-hating segment in the world media has continued the charade...
So what's the latest fauxism out of the Arab world? It's a grave one...because it deals with a cemetery...
Earlier this year, the Norwegian media outlet NRK reported how Israel was planning to erect a museum atop an ancient Muslim graveyard. It has now been revealed that the graveyard was just a 'Palestinian' deception intended to make Israel look bad.
...and the palterer's parade continues...
One of the critics of the museum, Diana Husseini, said: "With the destruction of the graveyard the Israelis are deleting traces of Jerusalem's Arab and Muslim history." Does that name 'Husseini' sound familiar to you? Her ancestor was none other than the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin al-Husseini...the Imam who helped Hitler formulate the 'Final Solution'...
...so I guess she was doing her part in the family business...howbeit, to no avail.
For anyone to ever approach the Mideast situation with any veracity...they must discern whether Israel's partner in negotiation is: Friend or Faux.
Shalom through strength...

Jihadists Love The Blah, Blah, Blahs
August 12, 2010
If there's one thing Islamic terrorists LOVE is 'peace talks'. And that's NOT because they believe in them, or want to reach a compromise or resolve a dispute. Their love is for a completely different reason...
For the Muslim carrying out Islamic law which follows Da'wah (proselytizing), one must have time to prepare. What follows da'wah? Why violent Jihad, of course. And time is a necessary element to carry out their task.
Remember: Time for a terrorist is a ticking bomb for innocent victims. Jihadists are patient little miscreants.
More often than not, as we have seen with the 'Palestinian' Authority (PA), Muslims call for a 'hudna', which is a truce...well, not exactly. A REAL truce would be a cease-fire, with the understanding that negotiations will continue.
But not so with Muslims...
A hudna is NOT a cease-fire. It is more of an intermission. The show of violence directed toward civilians will continue WHEN the Islamists are refueled, rearmed and refreshed.
So 'peace' talks or the blah, blah, blahs are another form of a pause for preparation to carry out Jihad.
So-called peace talks have started a plethora of times, ending in agreements that the Israelis commit to...but are breached repeatedly by Muslims...with impunity. And all the while, the time is being used by the enemies of the West (Israel being in the vanguard of that hatred), prepping for Jihad.
Now the administration is saying, as so many have in the past, that Israel and the PA are close to direct talks...don't be fooled by this false hope. It will end up as every other Holy Land huddle, with Israel doing and giving up everything...and their enemies getting a pass...again.
So the next time you hear the high and lofty laud more of the blah, blah, blahs...remember: The Jihadists are loving it!
Shalom through strength...

Forget Waldo, Where's Shukrijumah?
August 11, 2010
Most of you are familiar with the book, "Where's Waldo," written by illustrator Martin Handford published in 1987. A fictional book that presents readers with a peculiarly dressed man as he sets off on "a world-wide hike." Waldo travels to everyday places...such as the beach, the ski slopes and the zoo. The book contains 12 meticulous 2-page depictions of different locations. Somewhere in the midst of the crowded setting is Waldo and readers are asked to search the detailed illustrations to find the lost trekker.
Cute time waster...but that was then, and this is now...
We have a 'Waldo' of sorts...he's not cute, innocent or innocuous. He's got a $5 million bounty on his head...and he may very well be on our sod...
The Saudi Arabian born Adnan Al Shukrijumah, 35, who resided in the US for 15 years (NY and FL), may now have taken over Khaled Sheikh Mohammed's position and become al Qaeda's new global operations chief. Why should that matter to Joe and Jane Citizen?
Because our authorities DON'T know where he is...
In October 2003, Shukrijumah was the subject of a covert manhunt in the US and Canada. That same year, he was employed as a nuclear engineering student at MacMaster University's nuclear 5-megawatt research reactor in Ontario, Canada before vanishing.
And his absenteeism was only observed when a large amount of radioactive material was missing from the university's reactor. It was believed that bin Laden had entrusted the 'student' with preparing a "dirty bomb" attack in a US city.
Our officials are reporting that he is NOT on our turf. But I'm not buying it...
I don't believe Shukrijumah is here BUILDING that device. But I DO believe he is here training young recruits how to do just that.
This plays right into our current ever-deteriorating milieu of treating Muslims as a special protected class, while they surreptitiously devise machinations to bring down the West...all with Allah's blessings...
The question is, how many more Shukrijumahs are there in our nation right now? Hundreds upon hundreds of Muslim terror operatives have overstayed Visas, breached our borders posing as Hispanics...ALL in order to accomplish their work.
Don't believe me? Then how about the Imam of the (God forbid) Ground Zero Mosque. Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf wrote a book with the title: ‘A Call to Prayer from the World Trade Center Rubble: Islamic Da’wah From the Heart of America Post-9/11'. Islamic scholar Robert Spencer clarifies it this way: "Da’wah is Islamic proselytizing. And in the Islamic law, da’wah precedes jihad. You call the nonbelievers to Islam. And if they refuse to accept it, then you initiate the jihad against them. But the whole goal of both da’wah and jihad is to impose Islamic law or Sharia upon the nonbelievers as a political system, not as a religious one."
The FBI, the CIA...the entire Department of Homeland Security...has ONE goal: To keep us safe from those who seek to destroy us and our way of life.
And they are failing miserably...
The ideology of Islam is the trough from which ALL Islamic terrorists, like Shukrijumah, drink. It's time for the Feds to drain their reservoirs, by eliminating the recruiters and enablers of these barbaric beliefs.
In other words: Stop frisking Waldo and seek Shukrijumah!
Shalom through strength...

Big Apple: Rotting From The Core
August 5, 2010
Harvest time is almost upon us...so let's talk apples. What causes an apple to rot? Among the myriad reasons including excessive temperatures and fungus...we have insects. In particular, the apple maggot...or worm. The adult lays its eggs inside the fruit. The worm that hatches consumes the fruit (rarely will the larva leave the fruit while it is still hanging on the tree), and causes it to bruise and decay and finally drop before ripening.
Kind of like voters putting putzes into office...and the putzes become the origin of the rotting process...
Well, another worm has begun the process of rotting the Big Apple...making way for the Islamic snake to takes its throne of supremacy over its conquest of Ground Zero...
The worm is the New York City Landmarks Commission...who unanimously voted against landmark status for 51 Park Place...where a Mega-Mosque is planned. Truth be told, they made up their menial minds far in advance of hearing the facts.
The planned mosque is known as The Cordoba House or Cordoba Initiative...but it's been given a more cosmopolitan nomenclature: Park51.
So, what's the big whoop? What's another Mosque?
The significance of this Mosque is monumental (no pun intended)...and the reasons NOT to build near the sacred site, where 3,000 Americans lost their lives to the followers of Islam...are many. If you've been scratching your head on this one...allow me to lay it out for you...
The significance of the Cordoba, aka Park51 Mosque:
Current-day Spain, the Andalusian city of Cordoba which is portrayed as 'the model of medieval Muslim progressiveness and tolerance for Christians and Jews." But the TRUTH about Cordoba is, the Christian city was conquered by Muslims around 711, its people slaughtered or enslaved. The original mosque of Cordoba...the designation of the Ground Zero mosque--was built on top, and in part from the materials of, a Christian church. Modern day Muslims are well aware of these facts.
A Mosque MUST be built upon conquered land, for the sake of Islam.
Imam Abdul Rauf, heading the Cordoba Initiative, has radical roots similar to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Rauf’s education in the West (NYC & UK) and his familiarity with American pop culture, has made him an intensely proficient practitioner of Taqiyyah
The reasons it should NEVER be built near this sacred site:
Ground Zero is sacred ground. It is the last resting place of 3,000 innocent American lives.
With the above knowledge, allowing this magnum opus to Islam would be a welcome mat to Imams, and their peeps, who practice Taqiyyah.
It would be the ultimate disrespect to the mourners of those murdered in the 9-11 Muslim terror attacks.
Permitting the mosque to be built so near to Ground Zero would be like allowing the Japanese to build a temple to the late Emperor of Japan, at Pearl Harbor.
The hypocrisy is as thick as a cut-pile prayer rug...the unindicted co-conspirators of the Holy Land Foundation case, CAIR...joined the chorus of venal voices and sent out an 'action alert' to its email list...that said: "Ask NY Commission to Defend Religious Freedom."
Religious freedom? How absurd is that? People who follow an ideology that demands all people follow it or else? Name one Islamic country where there is religious freedom for ANY other religion? Can't think of one? That's because there IS none. Not one!
So their 'religious freedom' argument is specious. It's an attempt to play us for the fools they think we are. And sadly...Bloomberg, and his bootlicking ilk...prove them correct.
Is this a hopeless situation? Not at all. This can be won in the court of public opinion. Protests are planned, the ACLJ has filed a court challenge to the mosque...and much more to follow.
These brazen dissers (Bloomberg et al) must be shamed into doing the right thing and honoring the memory of the American lives lost in an Islamic terror attack, on that infamous day.
This is the moment that divides the subservient mice from intrepid, free men. Will we freely stand up...or will the Islamists win a conquest, yet again?
So, allow me to say, in conclusion: I'm protesting the apple maggots this Fall...how about you?
Shalom through strength...

Divine Justice: Assanges Of The World Become Terror Targets
August 3, 2010
You've heard his name recently...the editor of Wikileaks, Julian Assange. Just another fool against freedom. But fools like Assange are pernicious...because their feckless activity compromises the defense of nations.
And what happens to these reprobate reporters of revilement? Bupkis...
These are individuals with the blood of patriots and innocents on their hands...because they have disclosed information that compromises Spec Ops and possibly endangers operations on the ground now, and in the future.
But in today's milieu, they are regarded as champions, heroes and courageous.
I beg to differ...
An interesting conversation occurred this past weekend on FBN's Freedom Watch. Justin Raimondo, editorial director of Antiwar.com, made an astounding conclusion concerning Wikileaks' release of the documents...he insisted that the public should have access to the documents so they could review them and draw their own conclusions.
Really? So Raimondo is an intelligence expert and KNOWS what is what concerning Intel? That's like me reviewing the theories of 'special relativity' and 'general relativity' and determining whether Einstein was correct in his conclusions.
Let me see...the possibility of that happing would be: ZERO!!!
And so it is with Raimondo and his ignorant ilk.
I rather defer to Freedom Watch's other guest, former CIA agent, Wayne Simmons...who unequivocally assessed Wikileaks: He called them a terrorist organization.
Spot on, Mr. Simmons...
And with that, I have a strong suggestion for our enemies: Since you don't care what infidels you kill, I highly recommend that you aim low...at the slithering creatures like Assange. They don't believe in defending themselves, just hiding in other countries as they help destroy the defenders of freedom.
Just set your sights on the color yellow...it runs down the back...
Shalom through strength...
