RUSSIAN RUNNING

Real Russians Fleeing Iran (below)

RUSSIANS FLEEING FROM IRAN

Intelligence sources in Iran have reported early Oct. 1 that the entire staff of Russian nuclear engineers and experts employed in building the nuclear reactor at Bushehr had abruptly packed their bags Friday, Sept. 28, and flew back to Russia. There is no more information from any source as to why this has taken place.The Information originated with the ethnic Arabs who live near the reactor or who come in contact with its Russian staff. If true, then there could be only three hypothetical scenarios to account forthe Russians' precipitate departure: 1. Another crisis has cropped up in the patchy Russian-Iranian dealings over the Bushehr reactor. But this is unlikely because Russian president VladimarPutin is due for a high-profile visit to Tehran on Oct. 16, when he plans to sign a series of nuclear accords with the Islamic Republic. Furthermore, Moscow, like Beijing, stands foursquare behind Iran's efforts to delay harsher sanctions for its continued uranium enrichment. Only this week,the two powers gained Iran two to three months' grace by forcing a delay in the UN Security Council session that was to have approved a third round ofsanctions. 2. Moscow or Tehran has been tipped off that a U.S or Israeli attack is imminent on the Nuclear Plant and Iran's other nuclear installations and this prompt them to get the Russian personnel out of harm's way. 3. Moscow has intelligence that an Iranian pre-emptive attack is imminent against American targets in Iraq and the Persian Gulf and/or Israel.

MOSLEM AMERICAN PRESIDENT? OXYMORON CONCEPT

Can A Muslim Be A Good American President? ( everyone need's to vote & know who you are voting for ) * * * * * * * Something to consider very, very seriously!! "Can a good Muslim be a good American?" The question was asked to a man who worked in Saudi Arabia for 20 years . The following is his reply:... "Theologically - No. Because his allegiance is to Allah, the moon God of Arabia. "Religiously - No. Because no other religion is accepted by his Allah except Islam (Quran, 2:256) "Scripturally - No. Because his allegiance is to the five pillars of Islam and the Quran (Koran). "Geographically - No Because his allegiance is to Mecca , to which he turns in prayer five times a day. "Socially - No. Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make friends with Christians or Jews. "Politically - No. Because he must submit to the mullah (spiritual leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and Destruction of America, the great Satan. "Domestically - No. Because he is instructed to marry four women and beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34 ). "Intellectually - No. Because he cannot accept the American Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes the Bible to be corrupt. "Philosophically - No. Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran do not allow freedom of religion and expression. Democracy and Islam cannot coexist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic. "Spiritually - No. Because when we declare 'one nation under God,' the Christians God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to as heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in The Quran's 99 excellent names. "Therefore after much study and deliberation... Perhaps we should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country. They obviously cannot be both 'good' Muslims and good Americans!!! Their personal preference and allegiance is to Allah and Islam, not our Constitution, nor our God. "Call this situation what you wish; it's still the truth and factual, and you had better believe it!" "If you find yourself intellectually in agreement with the above statements, perhaps you will share this with your friends. The more who understand and comprehend this, the better it will be for our country and our future." And Barack Hussein Obama, a Muslim, wants to be our next president!!! Also, already a state of our Nation has elected a Muslim to the House of Representative. He is seated in the current session of Congress in the year 2007, and during his swearing-in ceremony he used the Muslim Koran (not the Bible)!!! How can he be a legitimate federal legislator in our Nation's Capitol while personally adhering to the above totally conflicting beliefs? Pass it on Fellow Americans. The religious war is bigger than we know or understand. October 8, 2007Jihad in Washington and Wall Street: here at last by Jerry Gordon, American Congress for Truth blog, October 8, 2007 White-house-iftar-dinner-10407.jpg Cultural Jihad erupted with a bang this week in our nation’s Capitol. It was Ramadan. So over at the Pentagon the PC thing to do was to invite radical Muslim Imams and officials of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). ISNA is one of unindicted co-conspirators in the Dallas Federal trial of the Holy Land Foundation. A Muslim chaplain and Navy Lieutenant Commander at the Pentagon Ramadan event had an auspicious last name in Arabic that translated into the “Sword of Islam”. The radical Muslim Imam present heads a Mosque in suburban Virginia stocked with the usual Wahhabi hate texts. On Capitol Hill, the House of Representatives in its benighted wisdom decided to pass a resolution recognizing Ramadan by a vote of 376 to zip, with 42 voting ‘present’: 41 Republicans and one lone Democrat in the group of dissenters. I guess the Members of Congress felt it was a sop to Saudi Arabia for its fine support of the War on Terror and pivotal role in the Arab peace initiative framing the November Middle East Summit in Annapolis. After all Saudi Arabia is the important swing producer in OPEC. Then we had President Bush holding the Seventh Annual Iftar dinner in the White House where he announced that “Terrorists don’t represent Islam”. Further, he tells the Arab world in a televised al Arabiya interview that “Islam is a great religion that preaches Peace”. When did this really start? I wrote about President Bush’s trek to the Islamic Center of Washington this summer with the groundwork prepared by his ex – White House Communications Director, Karen Hughes, Undersecretary of State for Public Diplomacy. I suggested that Dhimmitude had erupted in our Nation’s Capitol. It did. Now it grows deeper and entrenched in the mindset of Washington officialdom and in the offices of solons on Capitol Hill. We have K Street lobbyist, Grover Norquist, with his Palestinian Muslim wife, a State Department official , who helped to establish the Islamic Free Market Institute. He’s a supporter of radical Muslim Suhail Kahn golng onto the board of the Conservative Union. I see his footprints all over this week of cultural Jihad in Washington. There are advocates over at CAIR like Ibrahim Hooper, grinning from ear to ear and renegade American Maronite Christian, Jim Zogby of the Arab American Institute. Why should Wall Street be any different? There’s a Summit on Innovations in Islamic Finance at the Helmsley Hotel in Manhattan on October29th and 30th to instruct hungry investment bankers in all of the nuances of Sharia compliant bond, real estate and corporate financing. What do you expect; they’re lusting after deal fees in this financial desert caused by the burst of the housing price bubble and resulting credit crunch. It’s all because of the billions of those re-cycled petro-dollars.Just in Time, the new Dubai Bourse cut a “complicated” deal to buy 30% of NASDAQ. Our S.E.C. didn’t complain. Now we’ll probably see a lot of Shariah compliant public offerings over the next several years. Money talks and people walk. Who should know that better than the Bush family who have made a fortune out of cutting deals with the Princes of Araby and the Sheiks of the Gulf Emirates. Then so have former Presidents Carter and Clinton. It’s all so friendly, this Jihad in the 21st Century.Posted by Jerry Gordon @ 1:16 am 2 Comments » 1. THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF ALLAH ByLarry Houlewww.godofreason.com intermedusa@yahoo.com Thou shalt have no other gods before Allah or be beheaded Thou shalt obey without question the teachings of Allah or His Messenger which are for thy eternal or be beheaded.

In Islam, it is a Law of Allah to murder infidels, take their wives and daughters as sex slaves, sell their sons into slavery, loot the murdered infidels property and share 1/5 of the proceeds with Allah. Muslims can be beheaded for reviling or renouncing Allah or Islam. These are not sins or crimes against the Laws of Allah - THEY ARE THE LAWS OF ALLAH No rational, normal person can believe in the barbaric evil that is Islam. All the teachings in the Koran are not the words or teachings of any Allah. The Allah of the Koran never existed. The Koran is the words and teachings of Muhammad.

SOVIET UNION RE-BIRTH STARTING

(Remember to visit the other blog pages as per the links in the left hand column)

CLICK ON TITLE/SUBJECT TO GO TO FULL ARTICLE

In addition to the return of a Putin 'supreme ruler', Soviet type infrastructure in the political set up of future elections and his return to the top post in a few years, the 'executive enforcement arm' is coming into being.

Short step from the stated aim and purpose to a dictarorial imposition of someone's will on an unwilling populace.

"On October 2 Russia’s Nikolai Bordyuzha, secretary-general of the Collective Security Treaty Organization, told mass media that the CSTO is creating its own “peacekeeping” forces.

The member countries are Russia, Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan.

Bordyuzha outlined the political and military concepts underlying CSTO peacekeeping, to be approved at the organization’s October 6 summit in Dushanbe".

NEW BLOG PAGE - WORLD VIEWS

CLICK ON TITLE/HEADING TO GO TO PAGE
or
On "World Views" Link in left hand Column
The need for another page to post articles came about when several interesting or important stories came up on the same day and buried each other on the Home Page and the News Views. For instance an FBI bulletin, domestic USA events, a variety of Terror or Political articles, U.S. and International, or even a stand alone graphic or video that requires more prominence than a post on the Graphics or Video Pages. Thus, a visitor should scroll down the Home Page, head over to World Views and then check out News Views to get a good overview of what's going on or may prove amusing. The DAILY Terror News Page, with a multitude listing of only titles and links to articles, covers the major arenas where events occur, providing a selective choice to the reader and a rapid overview of events. Statistics show that visitors to AntiMullah come from all over the world, sometimes disguising/hiding their country source and use browsers in many languages. For instance, "by country" shows very little coming from within Iran, but a significant percentage of visitors use Farsi (Persian) language browsers. Expatriates and from within Iran, using proxies to avoid the Regime. Nearly every individual visit ends up going to at least two or three different Pages on AntiMullah, which has proved gratifying for the effort it takes to put up the posts. The Multilingual, currently mostly Farsi, has tracked a growing number of visits. An encouragement for spending time translating more of the English texts for Farsi speakers. The site is totally self-funded to maintain a clean, uninfluenced and focused profile of our opinion and does not link to other blogs, except to a "temporarily inactive" RegimeChangeIran. With such a huge disconnect in America and for that matter in most of Europe between the general knowledge of the people (often the governments, too) and the reality of the "political islam" danger descending on us, much of the AntiMullah focus goes to show what Islamofascism and intended Global Caliphate imposing religious "sharia" law instead of secular, modern law, really means. While no quarrel exists with anyone following Islam as a personal means of worship, the effort of political Islam orJihadists, in a reverse crusade, to drag us from our modern world back 1,400 years into the past and force us to follow the uncivilized mindsets of illiterate and superstitious and uncultured mindsets of those Dark Ages, does get the sharp edge of our opinions. And an effort to educate the world as to what to expect and face should this "ism" - not religion - progress unchecked.

USA EXPERIENCING MYSTERY ODORS

CLICK ON TITLE/SUBJECT TO GO TO SOURCE
When some months ago, a strong, still mysterious, bad odor wafted in from New Jersey into New York, it occurred to me that this was or could be a test by terrorists examining the best spread of biochemical or even nuclear radiation into New York for maximum damage effect. Here we go again? With a ratcheted up testing process as the dogs of war strain to be unleashed against Iran? (Alan) United States experiencing mysterious odors The reports of mysterious odors are popping up all over the United States. New York City experienced an odor with no known origin earlier this year, creating somewhat of a panic with the citizens, which is understandable in these terror times. Connecticut has had there share of an enigma fragrance, with no origin ever discovered. Even as far North as Alaska, an odor with no known host was evident to citizens and public officials alike. There are countless other locations throughout the U.S. that has had mystery scents make a guest appearance with no known cause. Could these odors be tests by the U.S. Government, to study the paths in which they take, so as to know where a real toxic cloud would go if a dirty bomb was ever set off by terrorists? How far fetched is it for the security agencies to perform tests in real cities, so as to better prepare for a real threat? It is better to know the path that a toxic cloud would travel, so as to minimize casualties. However, if in fact, these non-toxic odors are created by our government, they could at least inform the city officials, so that the citizens could be notified prior to testing, to ease fears that is not surprisingly caused by it. If these smells are not due to government tests, then someone undesirable may be doing tests of their own. Also, not far fetched, is terror cells performing their own tests, to track the pattern that a dirty bomb would make if detonated. Whatever the creator of these odors, it is not known to the public or even city officials. Do you have any theories? Below are just a few stories involving these mystery odors in the United States. New York City odor story: NYC ODOR Connecticut odor: Conn. odor - Nikiski, Alaska odor: Alaska odor, San Diego odor: San Diego odor This entry was posted on Sunday, September 30th, 2007 at 3:37 pm and is filed under terrorism.

SERENITY, WHERE IS THY STING?

Meanwhile, on the subject of another, perhaps in many ways similar "queen of illegal acitivity", also read the article below of the capture of this infamous Mexican woman. One may become the President of the USA (video) and the other become a long term prisoner.

Best for the world would be if both languished in prison, unable to cause the harm they bring with them. Why bring this drugs story into AntiMullah? Because terrorists of many nationalities but specially from Iran have been funding their anti-West activities with running drugs in co-operation with Mexican and Colombian drug cartels. Latin America now has Iranian investment pouring in - some $100 BILLION has been promised to Venezuela and Colombia - while some 500,000 homeless women and children, starve and freeze in the inhospitable and cold streets of Tehran, the capital city of Iran. Hundreds of thousands more suffer in other cities and villages around the country, ignored and even harrassed by a heartless, mindless Islamic government. During the Monarchy, not always perfect by any means, extensive efforts were made to look after orphans, provide meals in schools- as in America, and use secular family law to prevent women being thrown into the street without any means of survival or support - as now happens in Islamic Iran. And why Hitlery? Because Bill Klintoon and his co-president Hitlery - egged on by the Liberal Left loonies - are the tender gardeners of the Jimmy Carter roots of our international and terrorist difficulties and want to drag a resisting USA into a Socialist or even Communist format Administration. Look at Carter's friendships. Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, Castro of Cuba and several of the new South American leaders who are either Socialists or out and out Communists like Chavez. There is usually a "reason to the madness" (Shakespeare paraphrased) of articles here, which while attacking "political Islam" (as opposed to purely private religious beliefs) has the focus of protecting the Western world from sinking back 1,400 years by the attempts to inject sharia (religious) law into the Western justice system. And removing the clerical lunatics in Islamic Iran, whose "secular" President, Ahmadi-Nutjob illustrated so well during his visit to the USA and the drivel he spouted. DRUG ARREST Mexican police have captured the country’s highest profile female drug trafficker - the notoriously nicknamed Queen of the Pacific - along with her Colombian drug boss boyfriend, aka The Tiger. Sandra Avila Beltran was arrested on Friday driving her BMW sports utility vehicle in a wealthy part of Mexico City. Juan Diego Espinosa was picked up in the same area a few hours later. The couple are allegedly important figures in the organisation of shipments of Colombian cocaine to Mexico heading for the US. Both are also wanted on drugs charges in the United States. Beltran is said to be close to Ismael ‘el Mayo’ Zambada, one of the top drug barons within the Sinaloa trafficking organisation that is headed by the legendary Joaquin ‘el Chapo’ Guzman. Her regal nickname comes from her reputed role in developing smuggling roots up the Pacific coast. Espinosa, 39, is allegedly an important figure within the Colombian Norte del Valle cartel. That group’s leader, Diego Montoya, was arrested three weeks ago in an operation hailed as the biggest blow to Colombian drug traffickers since the fall of the infamous Pablo Escobar in 1993. Mexican authorities said the investigations that finally led them to Beltran began five years ago after the seizure of nine tons of Colombian cocaine in a tuna fishing boat off the Pacific port and resort of Manzanillo. ‘This woman has been transporting Colombian cocaine into Mexico since the Nineties. She is part of a family that has been dedicated to drug trafficking for three generations,’ public safety under-secretary Patricio Patiño said. A video released to the local media by the police show the alleged Queen of the Pacific claiming to be a housewife who earns extra money selling clothes and renting houses. Beltran speaks with hesitation throughout, until asked why she is in police custody. ‘Because of an arrest warrant with a view to my extradition,’ she replies quickly with a smile.

IGNORANCE IS BLISS - DEADLY BLISS - DESCENDING LIKE A GUILLOTINE BLADE ON OUR NECKS

Are Attitudes To Islam Hardening? CHECK OUT http://alanpetersvideos.blogspot.com/ "Not So Funny Reality" video on Ahmadi-Nejad A poll was published on Tuesday this week, compiled by the Pew Research http://people-press.org/reports/display.php3?ReportID=358 Center and the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life. This poll had sampled the opinions of 3,002 American adults, and found that 43% of respondents had a favorable view of Muslims, a drop of 5% from a similar poll from March 2004. In the recent poll, 35% had a negative view of Muslims, while in 2004 that figure had been 32%. Amongst religious groups, 51% of white mainstream Protestants and 48% of white Catholics had favorable views of Muslims, while only 24% of white evangelicals held favorable views. Fortunately for Muslim Americans, the respondents viewed them more favorably (53%) than they did Muslims in general. The poll also found that 58% of people said they "knew little or nothing about Islam's practices". (Alan Note: There lies the danger and Islam's insiduous strength - our ignorance of sharia law and the openly stated aim of Islamists to create a Moslem Caliphate to rule the world and IMPOSE sharia on us - similar to imposing Old Testament eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth on our modern society. Sharia laws date back UNCHANGED some 1,400 years and have no place in an enlightened, modern society) Additionally, 70% of Americans questioned thought that their religion was "very different" from Islam. In 2005, the figure for people thinking that their faith differed substantially from Islam stood at 59%. Back in 2001, 52% of people thought that Islam was different from their own faith. In 2001, 31% of people polled felt their religion had "a lot in common" with Islam, dropping to 27% in 2005 and to 19% in 2007. Politically, the most positive views on Muslims come from people who class themselves as "liberal Democrats", with 66% of these having a favorable impression of Muslims. For "conservative and moderate Democrats", as well as "independents", 48% had positive views of Muslims. Amongst Republicans, there is less favorable opinion. Of those with "moderate and liberal" outlooks 41% had positive views of Muslims, compared to only 26% of "conservative Republicans". People who knew a Muslim personally tend to have a more favorable view of Muslims in general. 56% of those who knew Muslims had a positive view, compared to 36% of people with no Muslim associates. The Pew poll, which was conducted between August 1 and August 18, shows that there appears to be a trend which views Muslims and Islam less favorably than three years ago. Other polls from Europe similarly indicate that attitudes towards Islam seem to be hardening, rather than softening. The authors of the Pew report claim that the "biggest influence on the public's impression of Muslims, particularly among those who express an unfavorable opinion of Muslims, is what people hear and read in the media. About a third of the public (32%) - including nearly half of those who offer a negative opinion of Muslims (48%) say what they have seen or read in the media has had the biggest influence on their views." The authors of the report claim that personal experience and education are less influential on people's opinions, though are more frequently cited as influential factors by those with supportive views. The "media" is a broad term. What appears to be lacking in this report is a clear breakdown of which particular aspects, in which areas of media, have made American people develop more negative attitudes. Are people being influenced by negative portrayals in dramas on TV, or by what they see in news reports? There are numerous sites on the internet which are critical of Islamism (political Islam). Are these influential in forming public opinion? If news items on Islamic terrorism are influencing people negatively, it would still be unethical journalism to stop reporting such incidents. Are media-based threats from Al Qaeda influencing public opinion? After the horrific events of 9/11, there was a backlash http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/2488829.stm against people perceived to be Muslims. The FBI claimed that hate crimes enacted upon Arabs and Muslims in the United States increased by 1,700% in 2001. There have been reports of Islamist terror plots on US soil since 9/11, but there have been no significant Islamist terror attacks in the US to explain the apparent rise in mistrust displayed in the Pew report. Findings from the recent Pew survey pose other questions. The proportion of people who view Islam as greatly different from their own faith has increased substantially. Are these people becoming more cynical, or are they understanding some of the basic tenets of Islam more clearly than they did before? One group which has maintained a high media presence in the U.S. is the Council on American Islamic Relations. (CAIR) Though highlighting cases of discrimination against Muslims, this group has been actively making the news, as in the case of the "flying imams" and more recently as an unindicted coconspirator in the Holy Land Foundation trial, currently playing out in Texas. Are CAIR's attempts to highlight "Muslim issues" backfiring and adding to a growing climate of mistrust? Britain suffered a major terrorist attack in 2005, though killing significantly fewer individuals than 9/11 (52 fatalities and about 600 injuries on London Transport on July 7, 2005). In Britain there have been increases in public mistrust of Muslims according to a poll conducted for the Financial Times and published on August 19. http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/114ea332-4e8a-11dc-85e7-0000779fd2ac.html This report was carried out by Harris Interactive, and involved a series of questions posed to respondents in the US and in five European countries - Germany, Italy, Spain, France and Britain. Harris' comprehensive findings comprise a 233-page breakdown of responses http://www.harrisinteractive.com/news/FTHarrisPoll/HI_FinancialTimes_HarrisPoll_July 2007_Tables_EU.pdf . A shorter summary can be found here http://www.harrisinteractive.com/harris_poll/index.asp?PID=801 A combined total of 6,398 adults were questioned in the six countries, between 1 and 13 August, 2007, corresponding closely with the time span for the recent Pew study. When asked: "Does the presence of Muslims in your country pose a threat to national security or not?", British respondents had the highest proportion who answered in the affirmative (38%), with the US and France with the lowest proportion (21% and 20% respectively). (Alan note: Americans are too ignorant on this subject to know better, while the French simply disdain them or are the most infilitrated by them) Those who answered "no danger" were the lowest in Spain (45%) and Britain (45%), with France at the highest (68%). 58% of US respondents did not believe the presence of Muslims in their country posed a national security threat. The issue of whether Muslims were seen to have too much or too little political power in respective countries, there was great uncertainty in the US, with 49% answering "not sure', the highest of the six countries surveyed. (Blissful ignorance again?) Only 20% of Americans thought Muslims in the US had "too much" political power, and 23% thought they had "the right amount". For the British respondents, 46% said Muslims in the UK had "too much power", only 28% were "unsure" and 19% thought they had "the right amount". Respondents in the six countries were asked: "Have Muslims in your country become the subject of unjustified criticism and prejudice or not?". Here, the answers had less variation, but again Britain's attitudes appeared to be different from those in the US. 44% of Britons answered "No" compared to 30% of Americans,. 47% of Spanish respondents said "No" to this question, with France (30%) having the fewest to answer "No' to the question. The highest proportion of those who thought Muslims had suffered undue prejudice came from the French (51%) followed by Italians (49%), Americans (47%), Germans (40%) and Britain in the lowest place at 39%. Respondents were asked "Do you have any friends who are Muslim?." Social relations with Muslims were highest in France, with 69% claiming to have Muslim friends, followed by Britain (38%), Germany (37%), Italy (32%), the US (28%), and Spain the lowest at 27%. Spain appears to have the least social interaction with Muslims, with 70% of respondents claiming to have no Muslim friends, followed by Italy (67%), Germany (61%), the US (60%), Britain (55%) and France with the lowest amount answering "no" (28%). On the issue of terror attacks happening on home territories within the next 12 months, the UK had the highest proportion (52%) who believed this would happen. 32% of Spaniards thought such an attack would happen on their soil, closely followed by 30% of Americans. France, Italy and Germany responded similarly, with between 15% and 18% believing an attack would happen within 12 months in their respective countries. FT poll graphic http://media.ft.com/cms/278bf2c2-4f29-11dc-b485-0000779fd2ac.gif 59% of Britons thought it was possible to be both a Muslim and a citizen of the country, a lower percentage than found in the other five nations surveyed. (With centuries of experience through having had a British Empire and dealing with a wide variety of cultures at a government level, the residual knowledge remains with the British psyche and an inkling of what sharia law means) France had the highest number who believed Islam and citizenship were compatible, closely followed by the United States. Almost 30% of Britons thought it was impossible for a Muslim to be a British citizen and a Muslim (quite correctly according to Islam which allows allegiance only to Allah, not to any State or nation). In France, (with a high enough percentage of Moslems for the tail to wag the dog) only 18% of respondents thought it was impossible for a French Muslim to be a citizen and a Muslim. (Not an opinion shared by devout Moslems themselves). http://www.expatica.com/source/site_article.asp?subchannel_id=26&story_id=30134&name=Germans+negative+on+Islam,+poll+shows In May last year a national poll was published in the German newspaper Frankfurter Allegmaine which indicated that attitudes towards Islam had worsened in the two years since 2004. 91% of respondents thought that Islam oppressed women (in 2004, the amount was 85%). 83% of Germans thought Islam was dominated by fanaticism (in 2004, the figure was 75%). 71% of Germans questioned felt Islam was intolerant, compared to 66% in 2004. 56% thought the "Clash of Civilisations" had already started. In 2004, 46% believed it had started. The German survey also asked if strict limits should be imposed upon Islam in Germany, and nearly half (40%) agreed. (Possibly based on their decades of experience with Turkish, mostly Moslem, guest workers) Germans were asked if building of mosques should be forbidden in their nation while some Islamic states refused permission for churches to be built. Again, more than half (56%) agreed. More than half (61%) of the respondents agreed that there would perpetually be "major conflict between both faiths". The pollsters concluded: "If one looks at this from a pessimistic viewpoint it could be seen as the start of a downward spiral toward conflict...The clash of civilizations has already begun in the minds of citizens." France appeared in the August Financial Times study to have the best relations with Muslims of the five European countries polled. French respondents were the least concerned if one of their offspring married a Muslim, for example. It is possible that there is a correlation with these responses and the attitudes held by French Muslims. Though using only a small sample from France's estimated 6 million Muslims, a poll study carried out on 513 respondents in August 2006 http://www.expatica.com/actual/article.asp?subchannel_id=25&story_id=33213 found some surprising attitudes of tolerance towards French secular values. The study was commissioned by La Vie, a Roman Catholic weekly. 94% of the French Muslims believed people were equal "regardless of religion". 69% said they would accept a Muslim marrying someone outside of their faith. 73% believed in the separation of Church and state, and 46% thought it was acceptable for a Muslim to convert to Christianity. Younger French Muslims aged 18 to 24 were less tolerant of Muslims converting to Christianity, with 56% opposing conversions out of Islam. 31% of this age group opposed marriage between Muslims and non-Muslims. Some of the French Muslims appeared to be rather lax in their faith: 30% never read the Koran, only 17% attended a mosque on a weekly basis, and 49% of respondents claimed that they never went to mosque. Even though 56% of younger French Muslims opposed conversions out of Islam, this is hardly comparable to the situation in Britain. A poll conducted by Populus in Britain, which was published by the Policy Exchange in January of this year found that among young British Muslims aged 16 to 24, 36% believed that a Muslim who converts to another religion should be "punished by death". One in eight young Muslims said that they admired groups such as Al Qaeda which are "prepared to fight the West". 37% of younger Muslims wanted to live under Sharia law. The full report (pdf document) entitled Living Apart Together can be found here: http://www.policyexchange.org.uk/images/libimages/246.pdf . demo http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/graphics/2007/01/29/nmuslim29.jpg Britain, probably more so than any of the countries listed in the Harris/Financial Times poll, has tried to force policies of "multiculturalism" onto the general public, and has an administration which attempts to show favor to Islam. The attitudes of British Muslims have not been ameliorated by such policies, if polls are to be believed. The hostility to Western values expressed by Britain's Muslims was highlighted in June 2006 in a survey by Pew http://pewglobal.org/reports/display.php?ReportID=254 Global Attitudes. Amongst Muslims of all ages, 81% of British Muslims surveyed claimed to see themselves as "Muslims first", citizens second, compared to 69% of Spanish Muslims, 66% of German Muslims and only 46% of French Muslims. The left-leaning Guardian http://www.guardian.co.uk/religion/Story/0,,1804078,00.html newspaper commented on the 2006 Pew report in an article entitled "Poll shows Muslims in Britain are the most anti-Western in Europe": "The poll found that 63% of all Britons had a favourable opinion of Muslims, down slightly from 67% in 2004, suggesting last year's London bombings did not trigger a significant rise in prejudice. Attitudes in Britain were more positive than in the US, Germany and Spain (where the popularity of Muslims has plummeted to 29%), and about the same as in France. Less than a third of British non-Muslims said they viewed Muslims as violent, significantly fewer than non-Muslims in Spain (60%), Germany (52%), the US (45%) and France (41%). By contrast, the poll found that British Muslims represented a "notable exception" in Europe, with far more negative views of westerners than Islamic minorities elsewhere on the continent. A significant majority viewed western populations as selfish, arrogant, greedy and immoral. Just over half said westerners were violent. While the overwhelming majority of European Muslims said westerners were respectful of women, fewer than half British Muslims agreed." Muslims in Britain, according to this report, showed anti-Semitic attitudes. Only 32% of British Muslims had a favorable opinion of Jews, whereas 71% of French Muslims viewed Jews favorably. The June 2006 poll by Pew surveyed 14,000 individuals in 15 countries. One of the co-chairs of the study, Senator John Danforth (St Louis) said http://www.westernresistance.com/blog/archives/002399.html "It seems to me that where they (Muslims) really tilt against the West has to do with values or with lifestyle or with perceptions that the West is a place of selfishness and arrogance and violence. Where do they get that idea? Maybe on television, I don't know." It is significant that a proportion the non-Muslim respondents in the most recent Pew report are, by the authors' admission, finding that the media is fueling negative perceptions of Muslims and Islam. Perhaps a very specific poll should be carried out in the US and elsewhere to specify exactly which areas of the media are creating "negative" perceptions. In Britain, a leftist commentator from the Guardian appears http://www.khaleejtimes.com/DisplayArticleNew.asp?xfile=data/opinion/2007/S September/opinion_September80.xml&section=opinion&col=to to blame the rise in mistrust of Muslims - as reported in the August Harris/FT poll - entirely upon the media. Attitudes towards Muslims are becoming less trusting in the West, and in Britain, this rise in mistrust seems linked to an increase in physical attacks upon Muslims. Polls are good at indicating trends, but they are not always so clear on the issues of causality. More polls are needed, both to gauge the attitudes of Muslims to the Western countries they live in, and the attitudes of Westerners to Muslims. It is not enough to merely document deteriorating relations. The causes need to be explored more fully, and once identified, they can be addressed. Merely "blaming the media" is not enough.

Ahmadinejad offered up his attacks while extolling his vision of Islamic global domination. Refusing to note his existential challenge to the Free World, the Western media concentrated their coverage of his trip on his statements regarding specific Western policy goals. His rejection of the UN Security Council's authority to take action against Iran's illicit nuclear weapons program; his championing of the Palestinian cause and Israel's destruction; his denials of Iranian support for terrorism, and his attacks against the US were widely reported. So too, his insistence that Iranian women enjoy full rights and that there are no homosexuals in Iran received banner headlines.Ahmadinejad gave two major addresses this week - at Columbia University and at the UN General Assembly. He devoted both to putting forward his vision for global Islamic domination. And while the Western media sought hidden meanings and signals for peaceful intentions in his words, the fact is that on both occasions, Ahmadinejad made absolutely clear that his vision of Islamic domination cannot coexist in any manner with Western civilization. Consequently, Ahmadinejad's statements were not negotiating stances. They were the direct consequence of the world view he propounds. As such, they are non-negotiable.

Dick Morris & Eileen McGannNew York Post, September 27, 2007 Columbia University this week managed to hand a PR victory to Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. It's time for another New York institution - the state Office of the Comptroller - to join the drive to undermine this evil and dangerous regime. California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is set to sign a new law aimed at banning Golden State public pension funds - which includes the two largest ones in America - from investing in companies that are involved in developing Iranian petroleum or natural-gas resources. Florida's public-employee-retirement fund is divesting nearly $1.3 billion invested with 21 companies doing business in Iran or Sudan. (California already hit Sudan's pocketbook last year.) Missouri and Louisiana have similar policies in place. The blow to Iran's rulers should be huge. The California system alone has assets totaling $350 billion - much of it invested in companies that do business with Iran such as Sieman's, Total, Respol and Shell.

A member of the state's Commission of Immigration resigned Thursday, a few hours after Gov. Timothy M. Kaine was told about online videos showing the appointee condemning Israel and advocating "the jihad way. "Kaine issued a statement saying he had accepted the resignation of Dr. Esam S. Omeish. He said Omeish offered to resign because he didn't want anything to distract the work of the commission.In a video that appears on YouTube, Omeish, who is president of the Muslim American Society and chief of the division of general surgery at INOVA Alexandria Hospital, is shown at an August 2006 rally in Washington denouncing an invasion of Lebanon by the "Israeli war machine."

Kagan Opinion Journal, September 29, 2007 Many politicians and pundits in Washington have ignored perhaps the most important point made by Gen. David Petraeus in his recent congressional testimony: The defeat of al Qaeda in Iraq requires a combination of conventional forces, special forces and local forces. This realization has profound implications not only for American strategy in Iraq, but also for the future of the war on terror. As Gen. Petraeus made clear, the adoption of a true counterinsurgency strategy in Iraq in January 2007 has led to unprecedented progress in the struggle against al Qaeda in Iraq, by protecting Sunni Arabs who reject the terrorists among them from the vicious retribution of those terrorists. In his address to the United Nations General Assembly Wednesday, Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki also touted the effectiveness of this strategy while at the same time warning of al Qaeda in Iraq's continued threat to his government and indeed the entire region. Yet despite the undeniable successes the new strategy has achieved against al Qaeda in Iraq, many in Congress are still pushing to change the mission of U.S. forces back to a counterterrorism role relying on special forces and precision munitions to conduct targeted attacks on terrorist leaders. This change would bring us back to the traditional, consensus strategy for dealing with cellular terrorist groups like al Qaeda--a strategy that has consistently failed in Iraq.

The endless wait for the Winograd Committee report and the political capital the prime minister has received in opinion polls published in recent days - have drawn the attention of most Israelis away from the daily warfare that is taking place less than an hour from the center of the country. In recent months, the West Bank and Gaza Strip security forces have arrested hundreds of militants and foiled dozens of terrorist attacks. Only the fact that yesterday the IDF suffered its first fatality this year in the West Bank has returned the focus on what is taking place on that front.It's common to claim it is impossible to defeat terrorism. But over the years of combating Palestinian terrorism during the second intifada (this month marks the seventh anniversary), the IDF and the Shin Bet have reached the closest possible point to achieving a victory. Since the beginning of the year, two soldiers (one each in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip) and six Israeli citizens (three in a suicide bombing in Eilat, two from Qassam rockets in Sderot, and one who was stabbed to death in the Etzion bloc in the West Bank) were killed as a result of terrorism. These are very minor figures, considering the number of attempts at carrying out attacks, and also when compared to the high point of the intifada, when 450 Israelis were killed in 2002. The last suicide bombing in central Israel occurred 18 months ago, in April 2006, in the old central bus station in Tel Aviv. The winning formula is a combination of aggressive intelligence gathering by the Shin Bet, the obstacle created by the separation fence and the complete freedom of operations granted to the IDF in the Palestinian cities. The army considers the continued arrests of militants and the main roadblocks as essential tools for successfully combating terrorism. Defense Minister Ehud Barak said yesterday that if he had to choose between easing restrictions on Palestinians and security considerations, he would opt for the latter.

HonigmanIsrael Hasbara Committee, September 28, 2007 IHC Abstract - The nub of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is about appetite vs. starvation, declares the writer.In their attempt to create the 23rd Arab state and the second Palestinian state (Jordan being the first), the Arabs are trying to convince themselves and the entire world that they are both the old Jews and the new Jews. First they hijack Palestine as their historic country, when clear Jewish as well as Roman records of Jesus time make no mention of the land being Arab. Second they hijack the historic condition of Jewish statelessness as their own.History records that it was the Roman conqueror Hadrian who renamed Judea Syria Palaestina, after the Jews historical enemies the Philistines. This renaming was done in the aftermath of the Roman suppression of the revolt of Bar Kochva, in which 580,000 people perished.

Editorial Investors Business Daily, September 26, 2007 War On Terror: A new movie called "The Kingdom" shows Saudis fighting terrorism alongside FBI agents. That's certainly what we'd like to see. But like the flick, it's pure fiction.There's new evidence the Saudis aren't cooperating in our battle to eradicate terrorists or those who bankroll them. Their negligence is shocking even to cynics. According to the Treasury Department's top anti-terror official, the kingdom has not prosecuted a single person named by the U.S. or the United Nations as a terror financier. Asked by ABC News how many Saudis have been charged with funding terror since 9/11, Treasury Undersecretary Stuart Levey said, "There have not been any." Not one? "No," he asserted.

ISAIAH 5:20 From the 1960s, inversion of truth and reality has been one the most favored propaganda methods of Israel's adversaries. One of its most frequent expressions has been the accusation that the Jewish people, victims of the Nazis, have now become the new Nazis, aggressors and oppressors of the Palestinian Arabs. Contemporary observers have identified this method and described it as an "inversion of reality," an "intellectual confidence trick," "reversing moral responsibility," or "twisted logic." Because Israel's enemies have, for nearly half a century, repeated such libels without being challenged, they have gradually gained credence. Since inversion of reality constitutes the basic principle of current anti-Israeli propaganda, it is important to understand what it is and how it works. This propaganda method is a product of Nazi Germany. It is totalitarian both in its methods, particularly the use of the paranoiac myth, and in the absolute solution it advocates. It totally denies all of Israel's claims and leaves no room for introspection and compromise.The Problem in Historical Perspective: Israel and the Media War>From the 1960s, inversion of truth and reality has been one the most favored propaganda methods of Israel's adversaries.

Gary Bauer writes: Columbia University has banned the Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) from its campus since 1969, highlighting the fact that many universities treat America's enemies better than they do those who protect America. ...[I]n the hands of liberal academia tolerance is an elastic concept. Michael Rubin writes:[W]hile faculty members fall all over themselves to bring repressive dictators to campus, many dissidents from the same countries are ignored. Columbia has never invited chief Libyan democracy activist Fathi El-Jahmi, for example (his mailing address for the last two and a half years would be Libya's state prison system).
