Ah yes, the Muslim Brotherhood front group CAIR doing their best to police free thought about Islam.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A Muslim civil liberties group is protesting a series of children’s textbooks that it says contains misleading and inflammatory rhetoric against Islam.

The Pennsylvania chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations has begun a public awareness campaign Wednesday against the “World of Islam” books by Mason Crest Publishing.

The group says the books inaccurately portray Muslims as inherently violent and deserving of suspicion.

5 Misunderstanders of Islam from Virgina went to Pakistan to fulfill their Islamic duties but things didn’t work out so well…

ISLAMABAD – A Pakistani court charged five young Americans on Wednesday with planning terrorist attacks in the South Asian country and conspiring to wage war against nations allied with Pakistan, their defense lawyer said.The men — all Muslims from the Washington, D.C., area — pleaded not guilty to a total of five charges, the most severe of which carries a maximum sentence of life in prison, defense lawyer Hasan Dastagir told The Associated Press….

The men, aged 19 to 25, were charged by an anti-terrorism court inside a prison in Sargodha, the city in Punjab province where they were arrested in December. They were reported missing by their families in November after one left behind a farewell video showing scenes of war and casualties and saying Muslims must be defended.

Their lawyer has said they were heading to Afghanistan and had no plans to stage attacks inside Pakistan.

Right, I’m sure they were just on a sight seeing trip to the beautiful Waziristan.

American Al Qaeda caught in Yemen worked at New Jersey Nuclear plant

Infidelesto — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 19:03:07 +0000

Apparently he passed a background check in 2008.

He also worked for former Democratic Governor Jon Corzine’s campaign in 2005.

Astute Bloggers and AJC reported:

A New Jersey official says a suspected terrorist who worked at a complex of nuclear power plants did not breach security there.

Mike Drewniak, a spokesman for Gov. Chris Christie, says his office has been told that Sharif Mobley was supervised and had no problems when he worked at three power plants in Salem County from 2002 to 2008.

PSEG Nuclear spokesman Joe Delmar said Thursday that Mobley worked as a laborer for several contractors at the three plants and others in the region.

The 26-year-old Mobley, who grew up in New Jersey and later lived in Philadelphia and Newark, Del., is in custody in Yemen as a suspected member of al-Qaida.

A spokesman for the Yemeni Embassy in Washington says those charges have nothing to do with his employment at the plants.

Turkey withholding ambassador to US pending resolution on Turkish genocide of Armenians

Yeah this is old news, but it is important. Basically the islamists are saying that if we call genocide genocide, they will take their ball and go home.

TURKEY NOT TO SEND BACK ITS AMBASSADOR TO US, ERDOGAN

(ANSAmed) – ANKARA, MARCH 9 – Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan said that Turkey would not send back its ambassador to U.S. before seeing clear results, as Anatolia news agency reports from in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where he was set to receive the ‘King Faisal International Prize’. On March 4, Turkey temporarily recalled its ambassador in Washington D.C. Namik Tan minutes after a U.S. congressional panel approved a resolution labelling the incidents of 1915 as “genocide”. The resolution on Armenian allegations related to the incidents of 1915 was adopted at the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs in a voting of 23-22. Shortly after the measure passed the committee voting, Turkish government said in a statement that Ambassador Tan had been recalled to Ankara for consultations. Speaking to reporters, Erdogan said that adoption of the resolution concerned Turkey, adding that the U.S. was a strategic ally and partner of Turkey. Erdogan said that the decision was not binding, however, the attitude was important. He said that the attitude of the U.S. in the next period was very important for Turkey, adding that Turkey was waiting for the attitude the U.S. would assume next. Erdogan noted that he did not believe the U.S. would sacrifice its strategic partner for simple political discussions. He said that Turkey would assess the situation in a large scale, and would not send back its ambassador before seeing a clear result. Turkey and Armenia signed two protocols on October 10, 2009 to normalize relations between the two countries. The protocols envisage the two countries to establish diplomatic ties and open the border that has been close since 1993. (ANSAmed).

Infamous American Youtuber “JihadJane” indicted on terrorism charges

Infidelesto — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:33:26 +0000

She’s a bit well known in the anti-jihad community especially if you frequent the Jawa report who’s had somewhat of an ongoing “relationship” with her and her antics.

Via Foxnews:

A Pennsylvania woman known to authorities as “JihadJane” has been charged in federal court with conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists, conspiracy to kill in a foreign country, making false statements to a government official and attempted identity theft.

The indictment, unsealed Monday, charges that Colleen R. LaRose and five unindicted co-conspirators recruited men on the Internet to wage violent jihad in South Asia and Europe, and recruited women on the Internet who had passports and the ability to travel to and around Europe in support of violent jihad.

The accused co-conspirators are located in South Asia, Eastern Europe, Western Europe and the United States.

In June of 2008, LaRose posted a comment on YouTube under the username “JihadJane,” stating that she is “desperate to do something somehow to help” the suffering Muslim people, according to the indictment.

She was also know to authorities as “Fatima LaRose.” The indictment describes LaRose as in her 40s.

Here’s the DOJ indictment:

WASHINGTON – David Kris, Assistant Attorney General for National Security, and Michael L. Levy, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, together with Janice K. Fedarcyk, Special Agent-in-Charge of the FBI in Philadelphia, today announced the unsealing of an indictment charging Colleen R. LaRose, aka “Fatima LaRose,” aka “JihadJane,” with conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists, conspiracy to kill in a foreign country, making false statements to a government official and attempted identity theft.

The indictment charges that LaRose (an American citizen born in 1963 who resides in Montgomery County, Pa.) and five unindicted co-conspirators (located in South Asia, Eastern Europe, Western Europe and the United States)recruited men on the Internet to wage violent jihad in South Asia and Europe, and recruited women on the Internet who had passports and the ability to travel to and around Europe in support of violent jihad.The indictment further charges that LaRose and her unindicted co-conspirators used the Internet to establish relationships with one another and to communicate regarding their plans, which included martyring themselves, soliciting funds for terrorists, soliciting passports and avoiding travel restrictions (through the collection of passports and through marriage) in order to wage violent jihad. The indictment further charges that LaRose stole another individual’s U.S. passport and transferred or attempted to transfer it in an effort to facilitate an act of international terrorism.

In addition, according to the indictment, LaRose received a direct order to kill a citizen and resident of Sweden, and to do so in a way that would frighten “the whole Kufar [non-believer] world.” The indictment further charges that LaRose agreed to carry out her murder assignment, and that she and her co-conspirators discussed that her appearance and American citizenship would help her blend in while carrying out her plans. According to the indictment, LaRose traveled to Europe and tracked the intended target online in an effort to complete her task.

“Today’s indictment, which alleges that a woman from suburban America agreed to carry out murder overseas and to provide material support to terrorists, underscores the evolving nature of the threat we face,” said David Kris, Assistant Attorney General for the National Security Division. “I applaud the many agents, analysts and prosecutors who worked on this important investigation.”

“This case shows the use terrorists can and do make of the Internet,” said U.S. Attorney Michael L. Levy. “Colleen LaRose and five other individuals scattered across the globe are alleged to have used the Internet to form a conspiracy to provide material support to terrorism, culminating in a direct order to LaRose to commit murder overseas. LaRose – an American citizen whose appearance was considered to be an asset because it allowed her to blend in – is charged with using the Internet to recruit violent jihadist fighters and supporters, and to solicit passports and funding. It demonstrates yet another very real danger lurking on the Internet. This case also demonstrates that terrorists are looking for Americans to join them in their cause, and it shatters any lingering thought that we can spot a terrorist based on appearance.”

“This case demonstrates that the FBI and our partners in the law enforcement and intelligence communities must continue to remain vigilant in the face of the threats that America faces, in whatever form those threats may present themselves or no matter how creative those who threaten us try to be,” said Special Agent-in-Charge Janice K. Fedarcyk of the Philadelphia Division of the FBI. “We must use all available technologies and techniques to root out potential threats and stop those who intend to harm us.”

If convicted of the charges against her, LaRose faces a potential sentence of life in prison and a $1 million fine.

This case was investigated by the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force. It is being prosecuted by Jennifer Arbittier Williams, Assistant U.S. Attorney from the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, and Matthew F. Blue, Trial Attorney from the Counterterrorism Section in the Justice Department’s National Security Division.

The public is reminded that an indictment is an accusation and a defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

Here’s a copy of the indictment.

Video: Son of Hamas founder says moderate Islam doesn’t exist

Infidelesto — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 01:55:00 +0000

Here’s the thing. He’s both right and wrong. He’s right about the fundamental Islamic ideology and the inherent violence being a true Muslim leads to. He’s wrong that all Muslims are the same and ultimately and eventually seek jihad. There are lots of Muslims who may be non-violent and brainwashed and simply don’t understand their own religion and what it entails.

If they ever knew the truth about Mohammed or the truth about their own ideology and how it’s being spread around the globe and how anti-freedom, anti-free speech and anti-life it is, they’d probably wisen up. Sadly, so many are brought up believing in the greatness of Islam are completely blind to the voilence that reigns supreme throughout the religion. Not that I sympathize with these people, but they do exist.

They’re non-violent brainwashed morons who may not go commit Jihad, but they’d sure as hell vote Islamic Law into power if given the chance and would ultimately like to see Islamic Law rule the world. That, they can’t escape and ultimately, even though they’re not prone to violence, they’re still prone to supporting and advocating jihad and Islamic totalitarianism. See Iran. Where are all the so-called decent Muslims standing with the West to stop them?

San Francisco: 3 Muslims shoot gay man in the face with bb gun

Infidelesto — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 01:36:35 +0000

Wait, I thought Muslims were the most oppressed and hated minority in the country?

Oh and it should be mentioned that the notoriously left-wing lunatics at SFGATE failed to even mention the perps as Muslim. All it takes is a look at their names though.

Three cousins from Hayward have been charged in San Francisco with a hate crime and assault for allegedly firing a BB rifle at the face of a man they believed was gay, an attack the men videotaped, authorities said Wednesday.

Mohammad Habibzada, Shafiq Hashemi and Sayed Bassam, all 24, are scheduled to be arraigned today in San Francisco Superior Court. They are free on $50,000 bond apiece.

The victim of Friday’s attack was walking on the 3200 block of 16th Street near Guerrero Street about 10 p.m. when a car pulled up and someone inside opened fire with a BB rifle, police said.

The man was hit in the face but refused medical treatment, said Lt. Lyn Tomioka, spokeswoman for the Police Department. He reported the shooting to police, who pulled over a car that matched the assailants’ vehicle a short distance away and arrested the three Hayward men.

Investigators believe the assailants chose the victim because he appeared to be gay. When the men were pulled over, police found a video camera that was used to film the shooting, investigators said.

via Creeping Sharia who adds:

Let’s use our imagination once again. Imagine if a gay guy shot a Muslim with a BB gun just because he was Muslim. Would he be free on bail? Would we never hear the end of it? Paging Eric Holder, Obama, CAIR, ISNA, MAS, ICNA…

Napolitano finally admits Fort Hood massacre was “Violent Islamic terrorism”

Infidelesto — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 19:45:39 +0000

I have to wonder though, why now? Liberals always spin the real deal with their politically correct appeasement rhetoric until the truth bites them in the ass and their forced to admit the truth. This is one of those examples.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano has become the first Obama Administration official to publicly describe last year’s deadly shootings at Ft. Hood, Tex., as a terrorist act, according to a search of news clips and transcripts.

“Violent Islamic terrorism … was part and parcel of the Ft. Hood killings,” Napolitano told the Senate Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday morning. “There is violent Islamic terrorism, be it Al Qaeda in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen or anywhere else, [and] that is indeed a major focus of this department and its efforts.”

In the months since an Army psychiatrist — who had been in contact with a radical Muslim cleric in Yemen — opened fired inside the Army base, many on Capitol Hill have urged administration officials to publicly identify the attack as terrorism.

Those calls have been used by Republicans and others to paint administration officials as weak on terrorism and subsequently unwilling to use the word “terrorism.”

During the Senate hearing on Wednesday morning, Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT), the Homeland Security Committee’s chairman, called the administration’s “reluctance” to use terms such as “Islamist extremism” or “Muslim terrorist” a “pet peave of mine.”

Another day, another muslim bomb plot in the US

Kal El — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 13:00:11 +0000

I am sure this latest jihadi will be (mis)characterized as just another misguided muslim, who needs therapy, and should be pitied and coddled. He ought to be sent off to GITMO, and signed up for the intramural waterboarding team. They offer great therapy there for jihadis.

Guilty Plea Made in Plot to Bomb New York SubwayGuilty

The Afghan immigrant at the center of what the authorities described as one of the most serious threats to the United States since 9/11 pleaded guilty Monday to terrorism charges in what he said was a Qaeda plot to detonate a bomb in the New York subway.

The man, Najibullah Zazi, admitted that he came to New York last year near the anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks to kill himself and others on the subway using a homemade bomb. He characterized the plot as a “martyrdom operation” that he was just days away from executing when he said he realized he was under government surveillance.

Mr. Zazi, 25, pleaded guilty in United States District Court in Brooklyn to charges that included conspiracies to use weapons of mass destruction and to commit murder in a foreign country, and to provide material support for a terrorist organization. He faces a possible life term when he is sentenced on June 25.

Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said at a news conference in Washington that the Zazi case represented one of the most serious threats to the United States since the 9/11 attacks.

“Were it not for the combined efforts of the law enforcement and intelligence communities, it could have been devastating,” he said. “This attempted attack on our homeland was real, it was in motion and it would have been deadly.”
