Does Dennis Prager give too much credit to unhinged leftists and their tools for being “bright and well meaning….?”



Not ready for jihad?



Jamaica’s Muslim leadership has banned him from preaching in established mosques, just in case his radical rhetoric stirs a Jamaican jihad. He has influenced convicted terrorists such as Richard Reid, the so-called shoe-bomber. His sermons were found in the apartment of suicide bombers who struck London, England, in 2005. Even one of the 9/11 plotters is said to have been a follower of Sheik Abdullah El-Faisal. (Source CNN)

Depraved Arab Killers Celebrate Quadruple Israeli Murder by Hamas



Better make that quintuple – it turns out one of the four people these cowardly bastards slaughtered for no reason whatsoever was pregnant. And then 3000 of them decided to celebrate, just like they did after 911. Their mothers must be so proud. Another ‘give ‘em a state’ moment from those adorable ‘Palestinians’ (UnDhimmi)



Happy Interfaithing!



Is Ikebal Patel in Manila on a government ticket?







Part of Patel’s itinerary is the roundtable discussion scheduled Thursday at the Australian Embassy in Makati City to give members of the media information about his work in Australia and discuss how interfaith dialogue can be used to promote peace and tolerance in our communities.



Strangely, there is nothing in the Koran about “interfaith, peace & tolerance” with unbelievers. Why are we forced to pay for this nonsense? (thanks to Mullah/mp.com.ph)

Islamophobes murder 43 with suicide bomb at Shi'ite Muslim rally -- no, wait...


Actually, it was more Sunni-Shi'ite jihad. But don't expect the UN and the OIC and CAIR and the rest of them to start talking about Muslim-on-Muslim violence instead of focusing upon a chimerical "Islamophobia."



"Suicide blast rips through Pakistan city, 43 dead," by Rizwan Saeed for Reuters, September 3 (thanks to all who sent this in):



QUETTA, Pakistan (Reuters) - A suicide bomber struck a rally in the Pakistani city of Quetta Friday, killing up to 43 people in the second major attack this week, piling pressure on a government struggling with a flood crisis.

The attack on the Shi'ite rally expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people came as the United States said the devastating floods are likely to delay army offensives against Taliban insurgents. [...]



More than 100 people were wounded in the Quetta attack, which like triple bombings at a Shi'ite procession in the city of Lahore this week, bore the hallmarks of the Taliban who often attack religious minorities to destabilize the government. [...]



Earlier, the al Qaeda-linked Taliban took responsibility for Wednesday's bombings in Lahore, further challenging the civilian government struggling to cope a month after devastating floods.



Aside from its battles against homegrown Taliban, Pakistan is under intense American pressure to tackle Afghan Taliban fighters who cross the border in Pakistan's lawless tribal areas to attack U.S.-led NATO troops. [...]





Yes, I'm sure the Pakistanis are going to get right on that.



The Lahore blasts, which killed 33 people, were the first major attack since flood waters tore through the country. "It's revenge for the killings of innocent Sunnis," a spokesman for Qari Hussain Mehsud, mentor of the Taliban's suicide bombers, told Reuters by telephone from an undisclosed location.

In another attack in the northwest, a suicide bomber killed one person outside a mosque of the Ahmadi sect, who consider themselves Muslims but whom Pakistan declares non-Muslims....



Islamist charities, some of them linked to militant groups, have at the same time joined in the relief effort for the millions affected by the worst floods in the nation's history.



U.S. officials are concerned that the involvement of hardline groups in flood relief will undermine the fight against militancy in Pakistan as well Afghanistan....
