U.S. Forces In Iraq Rescue 4 Men and a Boy who were being Tortured

Here’s a remarkable discovery and rescue by our soldiers that seems to be getting the ol’ gloss-over. I found it mentioned in passing at the end of a lengthy article.

News.com.au

… In the western Anbar province, US forces rescued five hostages when they opened a padlocked room in a building they were searching in Karmah, a restive town north of Fallujah, the military said.

“Inside were four men and a boy who had been kidnapped and severely beaten with chains, cables and hoses,” the military said, adding that the hostages bore the marks of torture.

“The boy stated the terrorists had hooked electrical wires to his tongue and shocked him,” it said.

Hmm, when did the boy become an, “it?”  Is he from the Adam’s Family or something???

Lieberman: Now is the Time for Choosing

Just when I thought the U.S. Senate was going to Hell in a handbasket, Senator Joseph Lieberman offers a glimmer of hope:

The Republican Jewish Coalition Leadership Conference attendees meeting in Washington on Wednesday, May 16, 2007, received U.S. Senator Joseph Lieberman (ID-CT) with tumultuous applause and a standing ovation. The 160 Republican Jewish leaders who assembled at the Washington DC Chamber of Commerce building, a block away from the White House, were visibly moved by Senator Lieberman’s principled stand on the Iraq war and national security, and delighted in his victory last November over Ned Lamont, a wealthy businessman who was supported by the Democratic party, and his Democratic colleague from Connecticut, Senator Christopher Dodd.

Senator Lieberman expressed his gratitude to many in the audience for having supported his 2006 race for re-election. Injecting dry humor, he said, “I know there are some who are probably wondering what a nice independent Democrat from Connecticut is doing at a Republican event like this? Well, a funny thing happened on the way to reelection last year… And as Rabbi Hillel said, the rest is commentary.”

Assuming a more serious demeanor and quoting President Ronald Reagan, Lieberman’s message to the audience was “Now is the time for choosing.” He continued: “If we stand united through the months ahead, if we stand firm against the terrorists who want to drive us to retreat, the war in Iraq can be won and the lives of millions of people can be saved.” “But if we surrender to the barbarism of suicide bombers and abandon the heart of the Middle East to fanatics and killers, to Al Qaeda and Iran, then all that our men and women in uniform have fought and died for will be lost, and we will be left a much less secure and free nation.” He added, “That is the choice we in Washington will make this summer and this fall. It is a choice not just about our foreign policy, our national security and our interests in the Middle East, it is about what our political leaders in both parties are prepared to stand for. It is about our very soul as a nation. It is about who we are, and who we want to be.”

Winners and Losers

Recently, I was shocked to discover that even my own mother, who lost her father in World War II, is starting to believe the media hype on our supposed loss of the fight in Iraq. The Liberal Media has gleefully named this condition, “War Fatigue,” implying that Americans are tired of the war in Iraq, while absolving themselves of the crime of continuously broadcasting anti-American propaganda from the war zone.

Al-Qaeda, Sunni’s, and Shiite insurgents have never won a single major battle in Iraq. They rely on America’s Liberal media to slowly wear down the support and resolve of the American people. We have heard their cries of, “it’s a quagmire,” since the earliest days of our blitzkreig-ish incursion into the heart of Iraq to liberate its people.

Yet, despite the naysayer’s constant barrage of insults and bad press, at home and abroad, our troops have performed magnificently – even with their hands tied by incredibly naive policy makers in Washington D.C. They have consistently performed above and beyond what has been asked of them by our Military Commanders.

If we are to lose this war in Iraq, it will not be because of our military. Nor, will it be because of people like Nancy Pelosi and her ilk. It will be because we the people of the United States of America have been brainwashed by the Liberal media and have actually begun to believe the lies coming from the Islamonazi propaganda machine. And, in a Democracy, that is an evil thing, indeed…

For those of you who have a case of war fatigue, I present the following article by Dennis Prager:

U.S., Israel Haven’t ‘Lost’ Anything
By: Dennis Prager, Special To The Bulletin

America has “lost” the war in Iraq primarily because most people believe it has. And most people believe it has because the news media have said so.

If this sounds bizarre, consider this: Why is it widely believed that Israel lost its 2006 war against Hezbollah in Lebanon? The answer is essentially the same – people believe it because the media said so. In fact, there is no rational case for arguing that Israel lost its war against Hezbollah.

I have believed that Israel won, or at least that Hezbollah lost, since the end of the war in 2006. I was convinced of this by Michael Young, the opinion editor of the Lebanese newspaper the Daily Star. In an interview on my radio talk show, he made the compelling case that Hezbollah had lost.

Do we stand by and say Nothing?

How do you react when you are in a public place and overhear our troops being denounced as murderous thugs? Do you shake your head in dismay and bite your tongue, or do you butt into another’s conversation and ask the offender to clarify?

Muslims urged to integrate more

May 21, 2007
CNN

SARAJEVO, Bosnia (Reuters) — European Muslims should do more to integrate in their new countries and reconcile their Islamic and civic identities, leading Muslim scholars said.

Scholars from the European Council on Fatwa and Research (ECFR), meeting in the Bosnian capital, said pious Muslims were increasingly asking them practical questions about how to interact with non-Muslims in their new home countries.

The ECFR, chaired by influential Qatar-based Islamic scholar Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, was set up in 1997 to help Muslims in Europe — many of them immigrants — by providing religious rulings, or fatwas, on how to act in harmony with Islamic law.

“Muslims shouldn’t live on their own but they should positively integrate into the society,” said ECFR General Secretary Hussein Mohammed Halawa, summing up the conclusions of the ECFR’s five-day annual meeting that ended on Sunday.

“They should not lose their (Islamic) identity,” he added.

Bosnia’s Grand Mufti Mustafa Ceric said European Muslims were sometimes skeptical about integrating, because they feared losing their Islamic identity, but times had changed. “The fear of isolation has led the majority to agree on this,” he said.

ECFR member Mohamed Almansoori said European Muslims were sometimes confused about Islam’s values because they saw some satellite television and Internet sites from the Middle East that preach hate rather than peace and respect for others.

Islamberg Just the Beginning…

 

Islamberg not the only radical Muslim compound flourishing in North America
Radical Muslim paramilitary compounds flourishing across the United States

The two FBI types breaking bread with the enemy in the photo above at “Islamberg” look right at home to Canada Free Press (CFP). Notice the weapons these dudes are wearing at the dinner table?

Islamberg is just one of what is thought to be a half dozen radical Muslim paramilitary compounds flourishing across the United States, this one nestled in dense forest at the foothills of the Catskill Mountains on the outskirts of Hancock, New York.

Canada, home to at least one such compound, is no safe ground.

Now that the photos of the two unidentified FBI types have been published, we will undoubtedly hear that they were merely working undercover. But some sticklers would consider saying cheese from the dinner table of the enemy is over the top.

Hundreds of letters have deluged (CFP) since it published a story with pictures of Springtime in Islamberg, written by The Day of Islam author Dr. Paul Williams with the able assistance of Doug Hagmann, Bill Krayer and Michael Travis.

Many letter writers complain that local authorities are telling them they have never heard of the compound.

Thousands of Young Muslims Prepared to Unleash Terror in Britain

Ex-Qaeda insider warns of fresh terror attacks on Britain’s streets
From our ANI Correspondent
Daily India
London, May 21: A former insider of the Al Qaeda network has warned that thousands of young Muslims are being prepared to unleash a fresh reign of terror on Britain’s streets.

Hassan Butt, 27, who spent 10 years close to the heart of the Al-Qaeda network and performed the role of a heartless fundraiser from the Muslim community, is about to become the biggest whistle-blower of all time by exposing how the radical Islamic extremists operate.

Wanted in Pakistan for plotting to kill President Musharraf, Butt is living in London in fear of security forces and Islamic revenge squads, reports The Sun.

In conversation with a tabloid reporter at a cafe near the site of the London Tube bombings, Butt revealed how he collected “taxes” from doctors and wealthy businessmen in the Muslim community with his sinister team to fund terrorism and lured desperate drug addicts, aided by their evil dealers, in a plot to “poison the West with drugs”.

He also blamed moderate Muslim leaders for failing to face up to preachers of hate like hook-handed Abu Hamza and exiled Omar Bakri, leaving them free to twist young minds.

“Saying thousands of British Muslims support terrorism is no over-estimation. I know because I used to raise money from them. Doctors, teachers and businessmen would all chip in-and they knew it was going towards terrorism,” Butt is quoted, as saying.
