Mad World News:

There are those who are so deeply devoted to raising the Caliphate that they will infiltrate the education system, media, and government in order to assist in implementing Sharia law; then, there are those who are so ignorant or blinded to the goal of the ummah that they are perfect pawns for Islamists to manipulate into spreading the intolerance of Islam. Unfortunately, the West is riddled with both, and the same laws that have turned tens of countries back into 7th century wastelands threaten our very own democracy.

According to an interview by The Muslim News, the British Labour Party is vowing to enforce pending legislation that will make any criticism or action that puts Islam in a negative light an aggravated crime, punishable with prison time and/or hefty fines.

“We are going to make it an aggravated crime. We are going to make sure it is marked on people’s records with the police to make sure they root out Islamophobia as a hate crime,” Miliband told the Editor of The Muslim News.

“We are going to change the law on this so we make it absolutely clear of our abhorrence of hate crime and Islamophobia. It will be the first time that the police will record Islamophobic attacks right across the country,” he said.

Labour Party Manifesto pledged to take a “zero-tolerance approach to hate crime” regarding the growth of Islamophobia as well as anti-Semitism. “We will challenge prejudice before it grows, whether in schools, universities or on social media. And we will strengthen the law on disability, homophobic, and transphobic hate crime,” it said.

While Miliband mentioned nothing of punishment for anti-Semitism or Christianophobia, he did add that the motive for such action is that the Muslim community is an “incredibly important” and “incredibly rich.”

Alright, I know what you’re thinking. This is only in the UK, so, why should I be worried? Well, this type of Islamic legislation is not only across the pond. In fact, it’s much closer to home than you think.

Fifty-year-old Eric Brazau was sentenced to one year in jail for handing out a flier that “vilified Muslims and disparages their religion,” IBTimes reports.

Brazau was arrested after he denounced the Quran and condemned Islam’s intolerant, terrorist values. However, this didn’t happen in some Islamic country or even in the UK; Brazau was sentenced for criticizing Islam in Toronto, Canada.

The purpose of the tyrannical legislation isn’t to simply stop citizens from criticizing Islam, but to prevent us from speaking out against anything Muslims do. By falsely claiming that rape, pedophilia, and murder have nothing to do with Islam, the media and legislators prevent patriot activists from identifying and stopping terrorism.

While all of these reprehensible actions were committed by the Islamic Prophet Muhammad, according to the Quran, Sunnah, and Hadith, simply being unable to openly identify the perpetrators and motivation ties the hands of security to properly prevent radicalism.

We must never play into this farce that Islamophobia is the reason for any and all opposition to Islam. The very idea that not wanting to instill medieval Sharia law is a problematic mental disorder is just another way to intimidate the enemies of Allah.

If this was really a true phobia, as Islamosympathizers like to throw around, it would be much more tolerated. Phobias are often thought to be irrational fears, but are also looked at as completely understandable since the sufferer cannot help the mental and behavioral disorder.

However, Islamophobia is not treated as such. It is simply name-calling used to intimidate the opposition into silence, deter warranted blame or suspicion from the aggressors, and provide seemingly intellectual and widely accepted terminology for a problem that doesn’t exist.

Hitler said it best: “Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.” After all, who wants to seem like a racist, bigot, intolerant Islamophobe when the media, education system, and even our own elected officials are chastising it?

As tempting as it is to want everyone to like you, the price is democracy and freedom, as they don’t defend themselves. And, as every devout Islamist knows, the West’s democracy and freedom are the best tools for destroying democracy and freedom.

U.S. Military ‘Hostile’ To Christians Under Obama; Morale, Retention Devastated

Soldiers pray at military base; Cruz, Lee Fight for Religious Freedom for
Military Service Members

April 16, 2015

The Washington Times:

By Jacqueline Klimas 

Soon there may only be atheists in the foxholes.

Christians are leaving the U.S. military or are discouraged from joining in the first place because of a “hostile work environment” that doesn’t let them express their beliefs openly, religious freedom advocates say.

Michael Berry, senior counsel at the Liberty Institute, a Texas-based legal organization dedicated to defending religious liberty in America, said recent high-profile cases of military chaplains facing punishment for private counseling sessions that reflected the teachings of their religion could cause devout Americans who are qualified for military service to think twice about joining the military.

In December, a chaplain for a Ranger training battalion received an administrative letter of concern after a soldier complained that he advocated Christianity and used the Bible during a mandatory unit suicide-prevention training session. The Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers said the chaplain “used his official position to force his personal religious beliefs on a captive military audience” in an article the group posted on its website.

And, last month, a Navy chaplain was removed from his post and may lose his career after some sailors complained about his private counseling, in which he reportedly advocated against homosexuality and sex outside of marriage.

“People of faith are going to stay away from the military,” said Mr. Berry in an interview with The Washington Times.

“I can’t tell you how many moms and dads I’ve spoken to who say, ‘My son or daughter wants to join the military, [but] in light of what you’ve described, I’m not sure I want to let them join the military anymore,’ and I don’t blame them. I would have serious reservations about my own kids joining,” Mr. Berry said.

Douglas Lee, president of the Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty, whose job it is to find people who want to be chaplains and make sure they’re also qualified to serve in the military, said growing religious hostility within the military is making it harder for him to find potential recruits and for the armed forces to maintain the chaplains it does have.

“I know people who get out, officers and chaplains, who’ve said, ‘I can’t serve the way I want to in this environment,’” said Mr. Lee, who also served as an Army chaplain. “People who’ve said, ‘Because of the religious liberty challenges I see, I think I’ll serve somewhere else.’”

Not being able to recruit or retain these individuals is very dangerous from a national security standpoint, said Mr. Berry, because they could be the military’s next group of leaders, but will never serve because they don’t think they’re welcome.

“We all used to sit around and talk about planning on spending 20 years, but at some point enough is enough,” he said.

Mr. Berry said he thinks the “hostile work environment” that is forcing the most religious persons out of the military is only getting worse, and that while in the past problems were mainly in the Air Force, religious liberty issues have spread throughout all the services.

“The problem is getting worse, not better, despite our efforts,” he said. “There is a culture [of] hostility [toward] religion in the military right now.”

While problems in the past have touched all religious groups, Travis Weber, director of the Center for Religious Liberty at the Family Research Council, said he’s seen a recent uptick and pattern of Christians facing persecution for religious expression.

Saudi Princes Planned To Down AIR FORCE ONE In Missile Attack: 9/11 Terrorist Gives Damning Testimony

(Screenshot Credit, RT)

February 6, 2015

RT:

A former Al-Qaeda member has revealed a strong connection between the terrorist group and the Saudi Royal family in the 1990s. More notably, he alleges that Saudi princes and terrorists discussed a plan to shoot Air Force One out of the sky.

The revelations came in the form of a testimony, delivered from a maximum-security prison, where Zacarias Moussaoui is incarcerated.

According to the New York Times, Moussaoui submitted the claim on his own initiative. He sent a letter to the judge presiding over the lawsuit filed by family members of 9/11 victims against the government of Saudi Arabia.

And so, for two days last October, lawyers were permitted for the first time to interview the terrorist at the federal prison – the most secure facility in the federal system, in Florence, Colorado. He gave a damning report that included very prominent members within the royal family, including three princes he says were all Al-Qaeda donors.

The testimony was finalized on Monday.

The meeting discussing the plan to down Air Force One allegedly took place at the kingdom’s embassy in Washington DC.

This and other meetings allegedly involved some of Saudi Arabia’s top princes and billionaires, including then-Prince Salman – brother to the late King Abdullah and now the King of Saudi Arabia. If Moussaoui’s testimony holds up, the view of Saudi involvement in attacking the United States and its alleged double-dealings could be changed profoundly.

Apparently from 1998 to 1999, Moussaoui was tasked by the Afghan terrorist branch with creating a digital database of Al-Qaeda donors, including Prince Turki al-Faisal, the former chief of Saudi intelligence, as well as others, mostly billionaire businessmen and leading clerics.

“Sheikh Osama wanted to keep a record” of the money flow, Moussaoui’s testimony says, adding that he acted as courier for Bin Laden himself.

NY Times also recounts Moussaoui describing in detail the training he received in the camps, as well as a trial run of a 750-kg bomb that was to be used on the American embassy in London – and later the embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.

But what would surely be a major blow for the US, Moussaoui also revealed plans to down the president’s Air Force One airplane with a Stinger missile. This was apparently discussed with the Islamic Affairs Department of the Saudi embassy.

“I was supposed to go to Washington and go with [a visiting Saudi official]… in order to find a location where it would be suitable to launch a Stinger attack and then, after, be able to escape,” Moussaoui went on.

His arrest allegedly came on the eve of that scouting trip.

There were attempts in 2006 to present the terrorist as insane, due to some instances of erratic behavior, but that didn’t fly with the judge, despite a psychologist’s diagnosis. And so he was deemed fit to stand trial.

In fact, “he has actually a better understanding of the legal system than some lawyers I’ve seen in court,”Judge Leonie M. Brinkema said at the time. She also called him “an extremely intelligent man” and said she was “fully satisfied” with his mental state.

The Saudis didn’t take kindly to the possible impact these revelations could have. Judgment on Moussaoui’s mental health is what could make or break the credibility of his testimony. And when submitting it on Monday, there were no indications whatsoever that the 9/11 attacker was not of sound mind.

According to NY Times, on the same day, the Saudi embassy referred to how the September 11 commission flatly rejected the possibility of such a relationship, pointing to how “Moussaoui is a deranged criminal whose own lawyers presented evidence that he was mentally incompetent.” They were alluding to his earlier mental diagnosis.

“My impression was that he was of completely sound mind — focused and thoughtful,” said a Philadelphia lawyer questioning him.

“WE’RE IN YOUR CITIES & WE WANT YOUR CHILDREN”: THE ISIS “BEHEADERS” ARE EVERYWHERE

(Screenshot Credit, Christian Patriots)

January 27, 2015

Christian Patriots:

The ISIS threat is a manufactured threat. However, just because the threat is contrived, does not mean that this CIA controlled organization does not represent a serious threat to the American people.

The Secret Service said it is “aware” of the above photo that shows an ISIS flag in front of the White House. I am quite certain that Barack Hussein Obama took his time ordering the Secret Service to take down the flag.

The Omnipresent ISIS Threat

ISIS routinely issues threats against the U.S. In a recent video series, Vice Mediaembedded with ISIS militants, and an ISIS militant told a Vice camera, “God willing, we will raise the flag of Allah in the White House.” Judging by the above photo, at least temporarily, it would appear that ISIS has succeeded.

ISIS, by design, is everywhere. The following was tweeted from an apparently pro-ISIS Twitter handle @sunna_rev on August 9, 2014

 Then of course there is the boldly announced presence of ISIS at the tumultuous events in Ferguson with regard to the shooting of Michael Brown. Please take careful note of the following picture, with ISIS sign in the background, to go along with accompanying tweets which attempt to recruit and radicalize our youth.

Unless one is  a die-hard coincidence theorist,  it is very difficult to discount the connection between the ISIS sign, listed above, and the attempted recruitment and radicalization of our youth with regard to building a domestic terrorist force in order to carry out dramatic acts of domestic terrorism which will ultimately result in a declaration of martial law. I submit that this is precisely what is happening inside of the United States, right here and right now.

NBC’s Predictive Programming TV Series

In a stunning case of predictive programming, the new NBC hit series, State of Affairs, shows exactly what ISIS is up to as they are recruiting college American youth in order to carry large-scale domestic terrorism. The following episode of State of Affairs if particularly telling as terrorist recruit, “Stacy Dover”, blows up a CIA safehouse killing a U.S. Senator, a CIA agent and seriously wounding the CIA Director. The name of the terrorist group, in the show, is not ISIS, but it may as well be as the show name for ISIS is “Ar Rissalah”. The above described scene is portrayed in the first few moments of the latest State of Affairs episode depicted HERE

The True ISIS Threat Was Manufactured By the CIA

Aaron Klein, an author for WorldNetDaily, has reported that members of ISIS fighting against the al-Assad government in Syria were trained by U.S. military instructors in Jordan. We also know that ISIS received it weapons from cast of military supplies left by U.S. troops in Iraq. By law, these weapons caches were to be destroyed before the troops redeployed to the United States.  ISIS is clearly a CIA psyops that has two goals:

1.) Take Syria’s Assad out of power.

2.) Become the next excuse on why we must continue to hand over our rights to the government to protect us.

 Recruiting American Youth

Your children are vulnerable to become recruited by ISIS as witnessed by the three teenage Colorado girls who wanted to join ISIS as a good opportunity to study how the militant group recruits young people in the West, U.S. law enforcement officials toldCNN. Again, as in Ferguson, American youth are being recruited through social media. I issue this warning now to the parents of America: Know what your children are doing. Monitor their social media and forget the lame argument that they have privacy rights. Nonsense! You have parental responsibilities.

“Banning Word of ALLAH is Liking Banning Word of GOD” Reports AceWorldNews

AceWorldNews: South East Asia News      September 18, 2014

The following article was written by AceWorldNews and isn’t about religious beliefs but about censorship and the absurdity of what is being done in Malaysia.

For long, Malaysia has been a multi-religious country where most people can adhere to their own religion even though Islam is the official religion. A state with a history of its diverse faith followers that lived in peace with each other. However, recent years have seen a drastic rise in growing intolerance towards the religious and ethnic minorities.

In recent developments, are the infamous Malay Court Ban limiting the use of the Arabic word Allah for Muslims “ONLY.”

The country has come under fire for its systematic evidence of targeting Christian community; the church burnings, grave desecration and the seizure of 300 Bibles. This Bible raid was justified under the Court ruling as it contained the word Allah. Come again.

When one thinks that the word Allah has been used by Malaysians for over 600 years and the name Allah was used in the Gospel printed in Malaysian 400 years ago, we can better comprehend the senselessness and impropriety of this prohibition. Ridiculous:.

The followers of Christ in the Arabian Peninsula, including some 12 million followers of Christianity are using the word Allah without any qualms or statutory rulings.

So why and what is wrong in Malaysian Christians using the word Allah?

The Koran itself is very clear on this subject, by affirming that Muslims should say to Jews and Christians that “our God and your God is one”.

However, many Malay Muslims have a rigid and schematic view of Islam. The challenge is to “educate the masses” and to promote religious freedom. Moreover, the government says Allah should be reserved exclusively for Muslims — who make up nearly two-thirds of the country’s 29 million people — because if other religions use it that could confuse Muslims and lead them to convert.

For crying out loud, is this really happening?

“The Allah ban is a direct result of our failure in Nation Building as a peoples. Everyone is responsible for it and everyone should play a role in the reconciliation process. We will have to look back as a nation and ask where did we go wrong. Then from there, we will need to find new creative ways to bridge the cross cultural gaps that led to this point,” says Malaysian human rights defender and Director, Dignity International (an international human rights based organization) Adrian Periera.

On-ground human rights groups have joined hands with Malaysian Catholics in campaigning against this ruling. One good that came out of this inanity, is the renewal of the Malaysians spirit that is seen into coming together as a united force. Needless, the Malays Catholics don’t find themselves alone in this battle and can count on the support of Muslim groups.

Organizations like Sisters in Islam (SIS) and the Front for Islamic revival (IRF) have launched initiatives on social networks to promote accurate information removed from the ideology and propaganda of the government and extremist movements.

“God, what is your religion?” This cryptic question, spotted on a T-shirt worn by a Malay Muslim woman demonstrator in a public protest for expressing solidarity with minority Christians over who can use the term ‘Allah’.

This debate has crossed national borders and sparked a debate among Muslims around the world.

In Pakistan, the English daily newspaper Daily Times questioned the ruling, asking why Malaysia would deny people of other faiths to “own God in all His attributes”. Similarly a newspaper in the United Arab Emirates called the court ruling “wrong”, and said the word Allah was never exclusive to Islam but used by both Christians and Jews to refer to God even before the advent of Islam.

“So. My God is not your God. And your God is not mine”

Is this making sense to any sane person within Malaysia and elsewhere? I guess not.

Reza Aslam, Muslim Academic writer said that the world was “laughing” at Malaysia over the court ruling that he described as a political decision more than anything else. “That you can control people’s ideas, their behavior, their faith and their minds simply by trying to control the words that they use, is absurd. It is an embarrassment to a modern, constitutional, democratic and deeply Muslim state like Malaysia,” said the religious scholar.

Indeed, congratulations to Malaysia being the first country to ban God’s name and to limit God to themselves.
