Amazon.com: A Hatred That Lasted 4000 Years... Best Selling author Hal Lindsey explains how, on September 11, an ancient fight-to-the-death conflict exploded on the shores of the U.S. Though most Americans didn't realize it, we were already involved in this struggle. A struggle driven by a hatred that goes back over 4000 years. Islamic fundamentalism's purpose is to replace the Judeo-Christian world order with an Islamic world order. Every American needs to understand the enormity of the threat we face -- and why.
In the aftermath of 9/11 most Americans are asking:
Why do most Muslims hate Jews?
Why do Islamic fundamentalists hate the United States and call it "The Great Satan?"
Why did Islamic terrorists sacrifice their own lives to kill Americans?
Do Islamic fundamentalists have access to weapons of mass destruction?
Could Islamic terrorists imperil the survival of the United States?
What light does Bible prophecy shed on this?
Does the Koran call for violence and conquest?
Are the Islamic fundamentalists an aberration of the Muslim religion, or are they - as they claim - the "True followers of Mohammad?"

Finally mainstream media blows the lid on Islamofascism, Islamofascists: 'Non Muslims = apes & pigs'


The following are some of the recent showing in US media, where up to now it was a taboo, so not to offend some Muslims it's called "Politically correctness", as Brigitte Gabrielle said this PC is killing us... on Glenn Becks's special (sill on a re-run on CNN this weekend) called "Radical Islam Extremist agenda". You can see how they compare their tactics to the nazis of WW2, (No, not the exaggerated slogans anyone throws in a political discurse, but) real fascism.

They show there the Wahabbi Saudi Arabian evil textbooks that are being spread into the US calling Christians and Jews "apes and pigs" (as if it's not enough that their Quran says that, they stress it out to adhere to in real life...).


Another Arab speaking out is M. Darwish that laments on how the Islamic adults brainwash the toddlers with so much hatred and glorifying mass murder in the name of Islam. Finally he has the segment of Nevada's Islamic group that is moderate and speaks out against it so do some cleric in Kuwait that regret the CULT of DEATH, "not giving the value of life to our kids"..

Some quotes from the "Obsession" On radical Muslims' war against Non Muslims (copied from http://attheagora.blogspot.com )

“Our motto, which we are not afraid to repeat year after year, is: Death to America.”


4. Hassein Suadd – Al-Qassam Brigades Commander (Dec. 2005):


“We succeeded, with Allah’s grace, to raise an ideological generation that loves death like our enemies love life."

“. . . And we swear to take vengeful blood from our enemies for our killed and wounded.


8. Jordanian and Palestinian School book (1998):


“This religion [Islam] will destroy all other religions through the Islamic Jihad fighter.”


9. 3 ½ year old Girl prompted by some adult (May, 2002):

“You see the Islamic rule, if a Kuffar (non-Muslims) goes into a Muslim country. And he’s walking by. He’s like a cow; boy, anybody could take him. That is the Islamic rule and this is the opinion of Islam. It’s not my opinion. If you read the books of jihad, you’ll see . . . A Kuffar is walking by, he walks inside – you catch him. “What are you doing here?” Then he’s a booty, you can sell him in the market. If Muslims cannot take him, you know, and sell him in the market then you just kill him. It’s okay.”

22. June 2005 – The Islamic Thinkers Society – a video voice over while young "Americans" are stamping on an American flag:


“In this country, one of the loopholes of this government is they allow the freedom of expression.”


“Indeed, it is He [Allah] who sent His messenger, Mohamed, with the Islam to dominate over all other religions; to dominate the United Sates; to dominate the world even though the non-Muslims may hate it.”


23. Some unnamed, turbaned figure speaking on a computer capture.


“Islam’s superior than the Jews, than the Christian, than the Buddhists, than the Hindus. Who ever seeks any other thing apart for Islam will never be accepted. And the Christian or Kuffar, you may think to yourself. No, No, No, they are innocent. No Kuffar is innocent.”


24. Another shouting computer image:


“From yourself we’ll make your destruction because Allah’s tradition will prevail on this earth.”


25. Mohanoud Ahmadinejan – Iranian President (July, 2004):

Islamism & Arabism, pitting the world against the Jew

"Divide & Concquer",Divide the west (Christians & Jews) and conquer???

It was not too long ago since the "blaming game" & scapegoating has resulted in active gas chambers, in plans for erasing an entire creed, origin from the face of the earth.

The new antisemitism has recent years been translated into "anti Zionism", not only in theory but in "action" as well, from plain terrorism on innocent Jews -- even outside Israel -- through Arabs attacking innocent Jews in Paris, and beyond.

True, some of Islamists are more open than others, like Adolf Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's "wiping off" plan, or Hezbullah's "happiness" with Jews concentrated in one place so it will be easier for the Islamists to carry out "what they want", or Hamas' declaration "We are a nation that drinks blood, and we know there is no better blood than the blood of the Jews", and others.

Maybe the danger is no less from those that try to hide their agenda under a hypocritical "worry" for "Palestinians plight" mask, not only are the same "preoccupied for Palestinians" singers not helping "Palestinians" but they are the ones, usually, that will put any obstacle so that any improvement in their situation will NOT take place, Why else, do you think has a "solution" to "Palestinians" prolonged that much?

But the cynical weapon against the Jews, the Islamists use is simple: "It's all the Zionists' fault", just solver the Israel/palestine problem, and we will all dance in a picnic.

Amazingly enough, not a mere few gullible liberals are the ones, "buying" that crap.

Yea right, What is Islamists' plan for a world dominated by radical Islam (or Caliphate) connected to that "conflict"?

It is the other way around, it is the Zionists who fight the world's war against radical Islam.

Are the ones "buying" Islamists' propaganda really aware of the danger of this evil "blaming game"? of the fatal consquences of scapegoating? Or has a 'cowardice of facing the harsh truth' virus, blinded, paralyzed any senses in the west vs Jihad?

"Divide & Concquer",Divide the west (Christians & Jews) and conquer???

1) Those that started with the Jews never ended with the Jews, 2) Jihadists, that are after all non Muslims, the test of the reality ceck is: How many will let themselves fooled by Islamists' picking on the Jews = the "convenient" minority, more than others.


Islamists are not motivated by "desperation" but by Jihadi Hate only!

Some are still blinded by Islamic propaganda that it is "personal" so called "grievances" that drives the mass murderer Islamic Jihadists to massacre innocent people.

But time and time again, we all see that the Jihadists are also well established & even well educated in the west, (but use the very western aid & development to hit at the west, the same goes to Arabs educated in Israel), nothing in their life tells of "being desperate", for their real motivation is pure hate!

Look at the examples of Muslims carrying out or plotting to masscare.

The best evidence for their motives is that the target in London was not Parliament, the City or the Israeli Embassy but a nightclub on ladies’ night. Islamic extremists are motivated above all by a pathological hatred of a liberal, democratic capitalist society that lets women enjoy themselves, practises freedom of expression, protects gay rights and tolerates alternative lifestyles...

Iraq

What doesn’t motivate Iraq suicide bombers by Donald Sensing
Via Norm Geras, I learned of a fascinating account in The New Republic of biographies published of suicide bombers and jihadist death seekers in Iraq. Why do they deal in death? Here’s what missing from the screen of motivations:
[M]issing are some of the issues most commonly cited as driving anti-Americanism in the Arab world. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict barely registers on the jihadist radar, and Abu Ghraib merits few mentions. The motivation for jihad is almost always, in keeping with Salafi ideology, the plight of the humiliated Muslim nation, victimized by the joint evil forces of kufr (unbelief, embodied by the United States as the enemy bent on the destruction of Islam) and tawaghit (tyrants who have set themselves up, or are propped up, as gods on earth).
So what does motivate them?
Many of the jihadists profiled held good jobs or were well-educated. Faysal Zayd Al Mutayri of Kuwait “resigned from the Ministry of Defense, where he held a military post.” Sultan Al Hudhayl Al Qahtani owned restaurants in Riyadh. Fahd Abdallah Al Fayzi was from a rich Saudi family, his father a local real-estate tycoon. Tariq Bin Luwayfi Al Huwayti graduated from the meteorology faculty of King Abd Al Aziz University. Mahir Ali Al Jahni of Saudi Arabia studied in India, where he earned a degree in English and computer science. And Ahmad Said Ahmad Al Ghamidi, also of Saudi Arabia, was studying medicine at Khartoum University when he broke off his studies and used his tuition money to go to Iraq.
Impoverished Arab men are too busy working for their next meal to allow themselves the luxury of religious fantasy.

Obama links Islamic terrorism to poverty 18 Sep 2008 by budsimmons 
In other words, poverty causes Islamic jihad. Obama reiterated this point last July during a CNN interview, when he related the rise of jihadist sentiment in Indonesia to poverty: “And now in Indonesia, you see some of those extremist ...

If poverty causes terrorism, why is Pakistan aiding the Taliban, and edging ever closer to implementing the strictest possible version of Islamic law, so many billions of dollars later?

In fact, the poverty-terror connection has been debunked many times. Fortune magazine, for example, reported in March 2007 that “of the 50 poorest countries in the world…only Afghanistan (and perhaps Bangladesh and Yemen) has much experience in terrorism, global or domestic.” The 9/11 hijackers were “middle-class sons of Saudi Arabia and many were well-educated. And Osama bin Laden himself is from one of the richest families in the Middle East.”

Fortune noted that a 2003 study of Palestinian terrorism found “higher-status respondents (merchant, farmer or professional)” were significantly more likely than “those lower down the ladder (laborer, craftsman or employee)” to agree that there were “circumstances under which you would justify the use of terrorism to achieve political goals.” And Harvard professor Albert Abadie studied 1,776 terrorist incidents, only to find no connection between poverty and terrorism: “When you look at the data” to find such a connection, he said, “it’s not there.”

Terror plot hatched in British hospitals
By Kim Sengupta, Ian Herbert and Cahal Milmo
Tuesday, 3 July 2007
A suspected secret cell of foreign militants, believed to be linked to al-Qa'ida and using British hospitals as cover, are being questioned over the terrorist attacks in London and Glasgow.
Five of the eight people under arrest last night are said to be doctors. Another of those detained is the wife of one of the doctors, who is a medical assistant working for the NHS. The home of a sixth doctor is said to have been searched by police. Late last night an Australian television network reported that a suspect wanted in connection with the attacks had been arrested in Brisbane.
Attention has been focused on a group of nationals from the Middle East, who had not previously attracted the interest of security agencies.

That terrorists themselves are reasonably well-off does not by itself disprove the argument that terrorism springs from poverty and ignorance. Terrorists might simply be a self-selected elite, who hope to serve the needs of an impoverished and despondent populace—in which case, providing money and education to the masses would be the best way to prevent terrorism.

From what we know now, this theory appears to be false. Krueger and Maleckova compared terrorist incidents in the Middle East with changes in the gross domestic product of the region and found that the number of such incidents per year increased as economic conditions improved. On the eve of the intifada that began in 2000, the unemployment rate among Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip was falling, and the Palestinians thought that economic conditions were improving. The same economic conditions existed at the time of the 1988 intifada. Terror did not spread as the economy got worse but as it got better.

This study agrees with the view of Franklin L. Ford, whose book Political Murder covers terrorist acts from ancient times down to the 1980s. Assassinations, he finds, were least common in fifth-century Athens, during the Roman republic, and in eighteenth-century Europe—periods in which “a certain quality of balance, as between authority and forbearance” was reinforced by a commitment to “customary rights.” Terrorism has not corresponded to high levels of repression or social injustice or high rates of ordinary crime. It seems to occur, Ford suggests, in periods of partial reform, popular excitement, high expectations, and impatient demands for still more rapid change.

But if terrorists—suicide bombers and other murderers of innocent people—are not desperate, perhaps they are psychologically disturbed. But I cannot think of a single major scholar who has studied this matter who has found any psychosis. Terrorists are likely to be different from non-terrorists, but not because of any obvious disease.

In short, recruiting religiously inspired or nationalistically oriented terrorists seems to have little to do with personal psychosis, material deprivation, or family rejection. It may not even have much to do with well-known, high-status leaders. Among West Bank and Gaza Palestinians, for example, there is broad support for suicide bombings and a widespread belief that violence has helped the Palestinian cause, even though as late as June 2003 only about one-third of all Palestinians thought Yasser Arafat was doing a good job. Indeed, his popularity has declined since the intifada began.
