Brigitte Gabriel Sounds The Alarm
Here's an e-mail she wrote about the threat to our lives and the Western way of life from Islam, posted on The Voice:
During this first month of the New Year 2009, we have seen some stunning developments that, considered together, should leave absolutely no doubt about the rising radical Islamic threat on our doorsteps in America.I have been warning Americans since 2002 about this threat, and that the threat is not just confined to terrorism. This is not a "war on terror." Terror is a tactic, one of many in the arsenal of radical Islamists.
I have been declaring, to anyone who would listen, that Islamists are well on their way to subverting and transforming Europe, and they are riding that wave here to America.
I have told my personal story, of how Islamists, step by step, took over my country of Lebanon. How they used our freedoms and commitment to tolerance and multiculturalism against us to further their ultimate ends. And how they are using the same strategies and tactics against us in the West.
In just the past three weeks we have seen:
A violent Islamic protest in Britain, where an angry mob shouting "Allahu Akbar" chased - yes, chased - dozens of British policemen for blocks. You must see this video to believe it!The Amsterdam Court of Appeals ordering the prosecution of Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders because he has made statements deemed "insulting" and harmful to "the religious esteem" of Muslims.
Austrian parliamentarian Susanne Winter convicted of "incitement," because of public statements she has made, including the claim that the prophet Mohammed was a pedophile.
Muslim protest marches in Italy that ended with the protestors, in an obvious act of intimidation, conducting mass prayer vigils directly in front of Catholic places of worship.
The release of an official U.S. government report stating that Hezbollah is forming terrorist cells here in the U.S. that could become operational.
The UN continuing to move ahead with the "Durban II" conference and its document that is little more than an anti-Israel rant that calls for suppressing public "defamation" of religion - notably Islam. This has run parallel to an effort by the Organization of the Islamic Conference to get the UN Human Rights Commission to pass a resolution condemning public "defamation" of Islam.
Brigitte continues:
My friends, the handwriting is clearly on the wall. Radical Islam is on the march, and it is growing stronger and bolder with every passing day.*

"that's because we ain't played cowboys and muslims yet."
There will be a confrontation, and Islam will not win. Eventually, they're gonna push the wrong person or people, and motherfuckers are gonna get shot.

Yea the people that the islamofacists will push to far will likely not be the Americans or the west. A half century ago I think the west would have had the guts to fight back. Now a days we in the west are too pansy to fight. This will sound bad but if losing 4300 US military personal in IRAQ (not Afghanistan) makes us say it is too hard to continue fighting. True IRAQ all be it is an unpopular war. Would it be worth it to us if it was a popular war to loose those lives?
What will make us willing to send 10.000, 20.000, 100,000 or a million soldiers and young people to fight. Even if we do have the people to send over.
Also we in the west do not have the heartlessness to kill. WWII we (west) where willing to firebomb the hell out of the Germans and be damned it to hell if civilians got caught in the action. True in Vietnam their was some firebombing/napalming that it when we started to loose our stomachs for it. Ask the question are you willing to level a town of 10000 to get at 100 jihadi soldiers? Are you willing to shoot at that soldier hiding behind a kid?
You know who it will be against in the future. The Chinese - those fuckers are crazy and given just a little incentive they will be the ones to fight and willing to lose thousands if not hundreds of thousands to protect themselves. That makes me think why the Islamofacists do not push to much at China. Because if you start a fight with China, China will be the ones finishing it.

Here's the dreaded part: W. Bush was a bad president but he held on one point; there was no terrorist attack on US soil after 9-11 on his watch. Let see if Obama would get the same record.

"True in Vietnam their was some firebombing/napalming that it when we started to loose our stomachs for it"
Uh yeah - war crimes will generally do that to a (non morally deficient) person.
"Ask the question are you willing to level a town of 10000 to get at 100 jihadi soldiers?"
Obviously not. It worries the hell out of me that YOU obviously are. Which High School do you currently attend? I've long since graduated, but I feel it only fair to warn your fellow teenagers in case you go all Columbine on them.
I can see now where the Army managed to recruit for Abu Grahib and where the warders for Gitmo came from.
Waterboarding anyone? Round here the Surf's very definitely 'up.'
James H at January 27, 2009 7:32 AM
James -
When you are fighting against an enemy that does not recognize boundaries, do you let them win, or do you accept the 'collateral damage' that the enemy's tactics impose?
If people thought like you in 1945, Truman would have been up on charges of war crimes for the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
brian at January 27, 2009 7:36 AM
James is so moral. The High School kind of moral where really tough decisions about survival are made in a kind of cartoonish fantasyland. James, open the web browser and search on an essay titled "The Virtue of Killing Children". It's the kind of essay that exposes the kind of moral dilema the West is actualy facing on the battlefield in Afghanistan and Iraq, and, may eventually be faced here. And it's not answered by High School morality plays.
Richard Cook at January 27, 2009 7:49 AM
Obama will not fare well against Islam. He made a speech yesterday, on Arab TV, no less, in which he said "to the Muslim community, Americans are not your enemy." http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=6738907
He's living in lala land. We're truly fucked if he thinks he can just invite them to sit down and talk things out. Ain't gonna happen. Pass the ammo, Brian.
Flynne at January 27, 2009 8:05 AM
It is disgraceful for the people, represented by the cops in that video, to allow an armed mob to run free in the middle of their capital city. When will someone stand up?
Of course, that's what arms control of the entire population, including cops, gets you. The only ones with weapons in Britain are apparently those who have been stockpiling them in mosques.
We've all got a lot of ugliness ahead -- either voluntary enslavement to radical Islamic political correctness or carnage in the streets.

I'd say the police underestimated the size of the demo and were therefore greatly outnumbered. It happens; last time it was a bunch of football hooligans who chased them. There's no sense in standing your ground in such circumstances - you will just get beaten, possibly killed, by a mob. The police were retreating in good order, not running away.
I didn't see any great violence or threats in that video; it was simply a protest demo. It's not the protesters' fault the police were forced back. Does anyone suggest the police should have fired into the crowd or something? This is not Arabia. Protest is legal here - even if you, or the police, don't like it.
Norman at January 27, 2009 9:08 AM
Or we could just get smart about it and demand our Western governments boot out the rabble-rousing Islamists and send them back to their caves.
No point in getting bogged down in endless invasions against an insane guerrilla network.
Been there, done that, didn't work for us.

But Norman, they shouldn't have been so indimidated, and yes, if it's necessary, and if they had guns, they should have fired over the crowd's heads as a warning first, then if the crowd didn't stand down, yes, fire into them. How much you wanna bet there were some of the crowd that were armed? o.O
This video is now making the rounds via email. I've already gotten it twice. It NEEDS to be seen. By EVERYONE. And it needs to be MADE KNOWN that this will NOT happen here.
It's not the protesters' fault the police were forced back.
Well, then, whose was it, the Pope's? o.O
Flynne at January 27, 2009 11:48 AM
...and if they [the police] had guns, they should have fired over the crowd's heads as a warning first....
Not so fast with the gunplay there, Skippy. Bullets fired into the air must come down. While they may not come down with the same velocity they had when fired, they'll still be moving pretty fast.
The police cannot see who is on the other side of the crowd (where the "warning shots" will come down). Perhaps innocent bystanders.
Conan the Grammarian at January 27, 2009 12:35 PM
I didn't even know about this protest until I saw this video. Does anyone know where and when it happened? The point is, if there had been violence, or gunfire, it would have been a different story, and it would have been headline news. What happens here in the UK is the police will have been photographing the whole event and weeks or months later, after everyone has calmed down, they will do any follow-up arrests that are necessary.
Having said that, this really seemed a tame show. A couple of traffic cones were thrown. As far as I could see, no-one was hurt, no property damaged, and people got to express their point of view. That's what demonstrations are for. It's not actually necessary to draw blood every single time.
It certainly did not live up to the description: "A violent Islamic protest in Britain, where an angry mob shouting "Allahu Akbar" chased - yes, chased - dozens of British policemen for blocks."
- It was not violent.
- There were one or two "Alahu akhbar"s but was it an Islamic mob? Impossible to say.
- No-one got above walking speed. There was no chase.

Amy, I beg you not to get into the habit of beginning paragraphs with "My friends." I don't want John McCain to come to mind when I'm reading!

James H scares me. Mostly, because I think his nihilistic self-loathing worldview is getting all too common. The terrorists choose to hide behind civilians (many of whom are willing...sick in itself) so we should just surrender to them as opposed to killing some innocents? And then watch happily as our own kids are rounded up and killed? Yes yes, let's do that.
And how is bombing a country you're at war with a war crime?
Burn or jump, James? They're probably not going to give you the choice to surrender and live at their whim, you know. NO matter how good at toadying you got in the schoolyard.
momof3 at January 28, 2009 7:13 PM
perhaps more freedom loving nonbelievers will be less tolerant of those racist islamic inhumane criminals when the world economy climate get worst.
WLIL at January 29, 2009 3:00 AM
Guys...I take you are all in the USA?
Well, I warn you, slam has taken over the UK...we have some of the Sharias laws, more will come. Islam is protected, we are not allowed to say anything or we get put in Jail for hate speech.
Im 62 and disabled so cannot go to live in anoher country.
In some schools our children are forced to observe Islamic issues, food, clothing etc......
Do not be like the uk...we have cowered to Islam, and they are dominant. They are only 5% so we should be able to fight back, but our Labour left wing government is protecting the muslims all the time, we dont have a chance. If we try to tell the police that we have been abused we are either told to go home, or the police try to blame us and prosecute us.
Keep America free..... dont let Islam in, it smiles at you but stabs you in the back when its strong enough.
God help us here..we are doomed....our children will be forced to be muslims one day.
