WSJ Op-Ed Piece and Beck Introduces "The Blaze"

While listening to Glenn's radio show this morning, I learned about an op-ed piece in the Wall Street Journal entitled Glenn's Happy Warriors: You probably couldn't have found a more polite crowd at the opera.

Excerpt:

Pundits will debate whether the crowd at Glenn Beck's Saturday rally in Washington was the largest in recent political history, but it was certainly among the most impressive.

Mr. Beck is a television host and radio broadcaster with a checkered past and a penchant for incendiary remarks. But if he's judged by the quality of people of all colors that he attracted to the Lincoln Memorial, his stock can't help but rise.


Jason Riley discusses Glenn Beck's rally at the Lincoln Memorial.
One would not be able to find a more polite crowd at a political convention, certainly not at a professional sporting event, probably not even at an opera. In fact, judging by the behavior of the attendees following the event, you'd have a tough time finding churches in which people display more patience as others make their way to the exits.

This army of well-mannered folks that marched into Washington seemed comprised mainly of people who had once marched in the U.S. Army or other military branch, or at least had a family member who had. Perhaps that's not surprising, given that the event was a fund-raiser for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, which provides scholarships to the children of elite troops killed in the performance of their duty. The day was largely devoted to expressions of gratitude for the sacrifices of U.S. soldiers, for great men of American history like the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., and for God.


Continue reading here.

I would have listed God first in that final sentence. However, it is very nice to finally have a positive piece of journalistic opinion about this awesome event shared by a mainstream media source.

Also, Glenn launched a new website called The Blaze. Just began exploring the site this morning. Check back for more information and commentary later.

The Heart of the Wise


I have often wondered why it is that the conservatives are called the"right", and the liberals are called the "left."

Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV) "The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left."

Mystery solved!

To Him That Overcometh

The accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their
testimony.--Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God
that justifieth. Who [is] he that condemneth? [It is] Christ that died, yea
rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also
maketh intercession for us.

Having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly,
triumphing over them in it.

--That through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

--In all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.--Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. . . . And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.--But thanks [be] to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Re 12:10,11 Ro 8:33,34 Col 2:15 Heb 2:14,15 Ro 8:37 Eph 6:11,17 1Co 15:57



Evening

The tree of life.

God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.--He gave his
only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have
everlasting life.--As the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth [them];
even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. . . . As the Father hath life in
himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself.

To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the
midst of the paradise of God.--In the midst of the street of it, and on either
side of the river, [was there] the tree of life, which bare twelve [manner of]
fruits, [and] yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree [were]
for the healing of the nations.

Happy [is] the man [that] findeth wisdom. . . . Length of days [is] in her right
hand. . . . She [is] a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy
[is every one] that retaineth her.--Christ Jesus . . . is made unto us wisdom.

Restore Honor Rally Draws Huge Crowd!


Well, it didn't take long for the spinmeisters to start their spinning about the Restore Honor event in Washington D.C. this morning.

Legal Insurrection: Subliminal Deception has the proof!

In between cooking and blogging, I am just starting to read the blogs and comments out there about the rally. I was sorry to read that Alan Keyes is apparently disgruntled with Beck. Oh well - can't please everybody!

I found this link interesting:

Solomonia: Huge Turnout For Beck

I think that the huge turnout was for God, Jesus Christ, and America! Anyway, it was interesting to read this blogger's non-Christian take on the event.

Excerpt:

I must say that though I have a healthy respect for religion in public life, and I acknowledge that there was a religious revival aspect to this event, and meaning absolutely no disrespect to our Christian friends, but I could have done with a few less blessings on behalf of everyone in the name of Jesus Christ. Once or twice, OK, but after a few more times you start to get that nagging feeling that "Maybe I don't belong here." At an event billed as a sort of all-purpose patriotic thing, a little more...ecumenical approach might be in order. This is much like Jewish communal events where, though the vast majority do not keep kosher, yet still dietary laws are observed out of respect for keeping the event appropriate for all. A little more respect on the part of some speakers that while professions of faith seemed to be welcome, they were not actually preaching inside their own churches, might have been in order.

I mean this as a nit, however. Imagine the consternation of the MSM, their subscribers dwindling, to see this huge turnout. The thrashing and slandering on the pages of the New York Times has already begun.

Home run, Beck.


Well - at least he used a positive baseball analogy at the end.

I think that one of the commentators at the site echos what I, and many hundreds of thousands of Americans feel about what occurred at the rally today:

EscapeVeolocity wrote:

I understand your point Solomon. However, part of the problem with Western Civilization these days is that Christians (and Christianity)have been driven from public life. This re-invigoration is good news for defenders of Western Civilization. This is the re-emergence of a healthy cultural expression/confidence. This country is still at least 80% Christian.

The problem is that you are used to Christianity being sidelined. When you listen to pre 68 political speeches, by the likes of JFK and FDR, you will quickly realize that this lack of Christian public expression since the 60s is an outlier. Christianity has been on the defensive.

This is good news for Western Civilization.


Although dr kill??? disliked hearing the name of Jesus Christ mentioned so much (as a small "a" atheist...what does that mean?) he still wrote:

But I would rather see a bunch of avowed Xtian [sic] conservatives running the USSA in a manner they feel is consistent with founding principle than this current dirty bunch of lieing [sic]Progs.


Heh!!

Praying for safety and a great event for faith, hope, and charity to shine through despite all of the terrible vitriol that the left is spewing about Glenn Beck's 8/28/10 event - Restoring Honor rally in Washington D.C. this Saturday. I wish I could be there, but family obligations prevent me from attending. I will keep a close eye on the coverage of the event.

I find the criticisms of the rabid left against Glenn Beck, his guests, the distortions of his "reasons" for holding the event and the ugly rhetoric against him for having it at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s great speech there very disturbing, disheartening and quite sad.

Glenn interviewed Alveda King, Dr. Martin Luther King's niece on his show today. I cried throughout the program. How did our country become so messed up and mean spirited? To hear how she is being treated so horribly by the left is disgusting. She appears to be a wonderful, faithful Christian woman who is pro-life and runs an organization encouraging life for the unborn. Of course, she represents everything that the rabid left hates - including being a willing vessel of love for reconciliation between the races and all people.

Glenn Beck Show- August 26, 2010


Tonight: Glenn continues from D.C. as less than 40 hours remain until the Restoring Honor Rally. Tonight, Glenn will prepare you and lay out the real message behind the rally (despite what you might have heard in the media). Joining Glenn tonight for a good portion of the program is Dr. Alveda King, niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. She has faced an enormous amount of criticism for agreeing to take part in and supporting the rally. We should keep her and all of those who have taken great risks to stand with Glenn in our prayers.


*******
Update 2:

A few weeks ago, I heard that Laura Ingraham may attend the rally on Saturday. I am currently reading her book, "The Obama Diaries" (it is EXCELLENT!) and on pages 324-325 she writes exactly why we need to keep up with the non-violent protests against the radical government agenda being hoisted upon us:



The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition - Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals

It is interesting that the very people who foment the anger in the country, the Democrats, are the ones wailing when the public reacts to their mischief. What did they think was going to happen when they refused to acknowledge the public outcry during the health-care debate?

It is hard to watch the persistent, radical agenda rolling out of this White House, whether it be health-care policy, immigration reform, cap-and-trade legislation, or the endless new taxes being proposed, without thinking that there is some plan underway. They are maliciously provoking a reaction, hoping for a violent response from the people, so they can use it to tarnish all dissent and finally silence criticism of their flawed policies. It is a textbook Saul Alinsky tactic.

Radical leftists thrive in conflict and chaos. In Rules for Radicals, Alinsky writes, "When those prominent in the status quo turn and label you an 'agitator,' they are completely correct, for that is, in one word, your function - to agitate to the point of conflict." In the midst of their premeditated conflicts, these leftists can do incredible damage. They will miss no opportunity to use the self-generated moments of strife to demonize their critics, restrain the people's freedom, and destroy their liberty. Should violence erupt or any social unrest break out as a result of their heinous policies, the liberals will proclaim themselves our protectors, and use the chaos as a justification to claim even greater control over our lives and our freedoms. For this reason, and so many others, violence must always be condemned and rejected, while every peaceful means of resistance should be utilized.


P.S. This blog post is currently listed here on the google blog search list, but I think that as posts on the Restoring Honor rally are added, the page number where it is listed may change.

I read some of the headlines and sentences from other blogs. The left-wing ones are doing EXACTLY what Laura Ingraham describes as the typical Saul Alinsky tactic (see quote and excerpt above in update 2) to cause the demonization of Beck and all who want to attend the event.

Knowing their tactics are a bogus attempt to cause strife and agitation takes the power away from their arguments and condemnation.

*******

Update 3:

I had to go three posts from the bottom of page 3 (at 9:15 a.m. PT) in order to find a blog post that wasn't disparaging the 8/28 Restoring Honor rally. What are these people so afraid of??

Sharif El Gamal - Waiter Turned Millionaire Developer?

I know I keep saying that I have another MUST SEE video here at Talk Wisdom, but the information about where the funding is coming from for the Ground Zero mosque is being revealed in a fast and furious way on the blogs!

Nice Deb provides one of the latest very interesting and informative videos of Fox News Channel's Megan Kelly story about Waiter Turned GZ Mosque Developer, Sharif El Gamal. So where is this money coming from??



What is this?? It seems like a surreal money for nothing and your chicks (checks?) for free" kind of scenario. How does a waiter become a millionaire real estate mogul in just a few short years?

Probable Answer: Militant Islamic funding.

Obama - The Post Turtle

YOU'VE GOT TO LOVE THIS RANCHER'S OUTLOOK & COMMON SENSE APPROACH TO LIFE .....



While suturing up a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher, whose hand had been caught in the gate while working his cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Obama, and his being our president.

The old rancher said, "Well, ya know, Obama is just a Post Turtle."

Now not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked,

What's a "Post Turtle?"

The old rancher said, "When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle."

The old rancher saw the puzzled look on the doctor's face so he continued to explain. "You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he's up there, he sure as heck ain't goin' anywhere, and you just wonder what kind of dumb a** put him up there in the first place."

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf: "We tend to forget, in the West, that the United States has more Muslim blood on its hands than al Qaida has on its hands of
innocent non Muslims. You may remember that the US-led sanctions against Iraq led to the death of over half a million Iraqi children. This has been documented by the United Nations. And when Madeleine Albright, who has become a friend of m

Anti-Christian Islamic Symbolism Surrounds Obama

There are polls showing that many Americans think that Obama is a "secret" Sunni Muslim while others admit not knowing what religion he practices. Can't blame the "don't know" people since Obama obviously doesn't practice biblical Christianity. At the same time, all that he does politically, socially, religiously, and foreign policy-wise gives Americans the additional tell-tale pro-Islamic impression that he hates the Jewish State of Israel.

Since I have been utilizing Hi stats and monitoring what visitors are viewing here at Talk Wisdom, there has been constant interest in a post that was written here way back in March of 2009 entitled Obama - Save Yourself.

Notice in that post's comment section that I mention that in another video (besides the "Save Yourself" YouTube video) there is proof presented of Islamic symbolism in Obama's now familiar campaign logo. Watch the video below and see where the symbolism is found. [Note: I do not subscribe to the video maker's view that Obama is THE "Antichrist" of the book of Revelation. However, his motives and actions are anti-Christ in nature - that is for sure!]

Jesus warned us that there would be many antichrists in the world.


1Jo 2:18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.

1Jo 2:22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.

1Jo 4:3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

2Jo 1:7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.


Obama certainly fits that description.

Take a look at the notes from my NIV Study Bible on 1 John 2:18-23 -

John is talking about the last days, the time between Christ's first and second comings. The first-century readers of 1 John lived in the last days, and so do we. During this time, antichrists (false teachers who pretend to be Christians and who lure weak members away from Christ) will appear. Finally, just before the world ends, one great antichrist will arise (Revelation 13; 19:20; 20:10). We do not need to fear these evil people, however. The Holy Spirit shows us their errors, so we will not be deceived. However, we must teach God's Word clearly and carefully to the peripheral, weak members among us so that they won't fall prey to these teachers who "come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves" (Matthew 7:15).



When you view the video, you may find it amazing to look back at all of the broken promises that Obama made!



P.S. If you just want to skip to the Islamic symbolism portion included in the video, go to about 3:15 into the video.

The young girl singing at the end of the video is still a very creepy thing to see...just as it was the very first time I saw it! It is truly a sad and scary thing to see a child brainwashed in this way!

What is the best way to counter such deception? Share the truth of God through His Word - the Bible! The following notes share how to avoid deception:

Apparently the antichrists in John's day were claiming faith in God while denying and opposing Christ. To do so, John firmly states, is impossible. Because Jesus is God's Son and the Messiah, to deny Christ is to reject God's way of revealing himself to the world. A person who accepts Christ as God's Son, however, accepts God the Father at the same time. The two are one and cannot be separated. Many cultists today call themselves Christians, but they deny that Jesus is divine. We must expose these heresies and oppose such teachings so that the weak believers among us do not succumb to their teachings.

These Christians had heard the gospel, very likely from John himself. They knew that Christ was God's Son, that he would return and establish his kingdom in its fullness. But their fellowship was being infiltrated by teachers who denied these basic doctrines of the Christian faith, and some of the believers were in danger of succumbing to false arguments. John encouraged them to hold on to the Christian truth they heard at the beginning of their walk with Christ. It is important to grow in our knowledge of the Lord, to deepen our understanding through careful study, and to teach these truths to others. But no matter how much we learn, we must never abandon the basic truths about Christ. Jesus will always be God's Son, and his sacrifice for our sins is permanent. No truth will ever contradict these teachings in the Bible.

Do Americans Know What We Are Up Against?

There has been a lot of buzz on the T.V. news shows, blogs, Facebook and Twitter lately about how the public now thinks that Obama is really a Muslim. I'm sure that his comments during a Muslim Iftar dinner at the White House - showing support for the Constitutional right to build a mosque near Ground Zero - fueled the sentiments of many more Americans that Obama not only sympathizes with Muslims, but might also, in fact, be one of them.

Our good ole' Lame Cherry blogger - a.k.a. Mr. Exclusive in some blogging circles - claims to have solved the mystery over Obama's Muslim upbringing through his post Is Obama Sunni or Shia Muslim?

I read his essay days ago, but this morning I found myself thinking about how easily (and quickly) Obama put out a "kill or capture" order for American-born Islamic terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki back in April, 2010. Yet, when Major Nidal Malik Hasan, the army psychiatrist who went on a shooting rampage in Fort Hood, Texas, in which 13 people died last November was shot but captured alive (and paralyzed), Obama and his cohorts didn't have nearly the same reaction towards the perpetrator of that horrible massacre. No one in the administration (AFAIK) was saying that Hassan should get the death penalty for what he did. If the death penalty was ever warranted, the Ft. Hood case should certainly qualify. Why was Obama mum on this terrorist's fate, yet put out a "shoot to kill" directive on al-Awlaki?

Excerpt from link:

The Obama Administration has taken the unprecedented step of authorising the killing of a US citizen, the radical Muslim cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, linked to the plot to blow up a US airliner on Christmas Day.

The move to place Mr. al-Awlaki, 38, on a hit list was taken after a White House review concluded this year that he had moved from inciting terrorist attacks to taking part in them.

The decision is extraordinary not only because Mr. al-Awlaki is believed to be the first American whose killing has been approved by a US President, but also because the Obama Administration chose to make the move public.



Admittedly, I need to do more research to find out which kind of Muslim Hassan is, and whether or not al-Awlaki is Shia or Sunni. Is one Sunni and the other Shia? Is that the reason why Obama has purposely treated them differently? Lame Cherry has surmised that because Obama is purportedly Sunni Muslim (again - Talk Wisdom Reports - You Decide) he wrote this:

B. Hussein Obama was born Muslim, taught Islam, prayed Muslim and bows to Islam in taking their finances, to rewarding Islamocommunists portions of the Israelite state. He is Muslim and there is no denying that fact.


Khadaffi who Obama released a Libyan terrorist mass murdering Americans to, defines Obama as an African Muslim.

What requires understanding in this is Kenyans are Sunni Muslims who Obama is born from. Indonesians are Sunni Muslims who Obama was adopted into. Malcolm Little or X was a convert to Sunni Islam who Obama learned to be black from according to David Remnick. Louis Farrakhan or Louis Eugene Walcott, who Obama had Walcott's followers intimidate reporters in Chicago moved the Nation of Islam Mooselums closer to Sunni theology.


Barack Obama Soetoro was financed by Saudi Sunni Islam, the same sects as Sheik bin Laden, for his schooling.


So to answer the question as to which branch of Islam that Obama's loyalties lay, the answer is he is a Sunni Muslim.

This might not sound that big of a deal to westerners, until one remembers what that little Irish tiff was about in Catholics at war with Protestants, or the Inquisitions of the Catholic religion of olde against Protestants. There is a massive warring faction in Islam of Sunni against Shia and Shia against Sunni, melded now with Obama black liberation, Marxism and Fascism of the Nazi order.

The entire basis of this split is Shia Muslims believe that the only people who should lead Islam at the head are to be descendants of Muhammed, as in his kindred, while Sunni believe anyone can be the leader.

The shahadah or declaration in Sunni is simple:

"There is no god but Alláh, Muhammad is the Messenger of Alláh.


The Shia shahadah expands what most have heard.
"There is no god but Alláh, Muhammad is the Messenger of Alláh, Alí is the Friend of Alláh. The Successor of the Messenger of Alláh And his first Caliph."

Do you comprehend now why this blog has been posting exclusively that Barack Hussein Obama has been dragging America into the middle of an Islamic tribal war of genocide?

This is what the entire basis of Obama has been about and is about. His entire heritage, religion and financial backing has been Sunni in the fascist Muslim Brotherhood order. He has no place for Shia Muslims any more than what Mark Halperin blurted out to Charlie Rose's horror in "Obama has no affinity for the GOP Gulf States as they did not vote for him".

So why in this world when the Saudi Royal Family is busy warning the world that a nuclear Persia of Shiites Muslims is about to launch a genocidal war, equal to the Muslim wars of antiquity, is Obama being a benefactor of Iran?

The answer will be exclusive here, as it was exclusively here proven that Obama warned the Iranians of the French outing them in their nuclear bomb factory. Proven in Obama was using Twitter to assist Iran in rounding up to murder Iranian Patriots and proven that Obama has been assisting the Persian Islamocommunist regime in their production of nuclear weapons by dithering.

The answer is based in an exclusive analogy of this blog that a nuclear pollution of the central Asian region is what Putin was fomenting as much as Iran, because polluting the Middle East, means driving America from the region.


Zbigniew Brzezinski in his chessboard knows all of this, and there were attempts already to foment a nuclear exchange between Indian and Pakistan in Obama's first year. The entire purpose is to pollute the region to dislodge that wilderness of being a terrorist breeding ground.

In a global order as this blog was exclusive in noting, that radioactive fall out will also punish and implode the communist Chinese. Dying Chicoms and massive population shifts, as into Russian wilderness, all of a sudden has Peking worried about keeping it's head, and Moscow worried about becoming a Texas Mexican state speaking Chinese.

Methods to this globalist madness are based in sound strategic planning and Muslim Obama is more than a willing conduit in this, as by assisting the aggression of the Persian communists, sitting back and allowing the Bashrher reactor to be fueled, this means that when a strike does occur, that nuclear pollution will certainly follow. Pollution spreading into Afghanistan, Pakistan, Xianxang Province in China where Sheik bin Laden and Dr. Zawarhiri have been living for the past almost decade.
This is a nuclear domino effect. Obama can with his Sunni benefactors set off a chain reaction of global proportions, sending shockwaves all through Eurasia, all for the central European cause.

Never forget in this though, that Barack Hussein Obama was the one and was highlighted here by ABC news in using the defining term MOOSELUMS. Mooselums are a black revolutionary socialist group, which due to monetary support Louis Farrakhan and black Muslims have been moving towards. They too want their figurehead leadership, and if the Arab Sunni eats radiation to get it while Shia Persians are bleeding at the gums, then this is more of that German Philosopher Kant in the ends justify the means mentality infusing all branches of Islam in these radicals of Islam.


Make no mistake, Barack Hussein Obama is not just a radical, he is not just a black revolutionary of change, he is an Islamic radical with the same ideology as Louis Farrakhan.

Barack Hussein Obama is a black Mooselum, by his pronunciation and declaration in publicly scoffing at the name Muslim and choosing Mooselum to send a message to the follower in code early in his tenure at the White House.


He is based in Sunnism, and their intent is to conquer and destroy Shia Persians, and nothing says destruction like a Chernobyl crater melting down after the Russians and Chincoms go off to spread cancer somewhere else.



What an absolutely chilling scenario - if true. It would certainly explain the obvious "marriage" that Obama has brought about through his criminal associations with, as Lame Cherry describes it, the "massive warring faction in Islam of Sunni against Shia and Shia against Sunni, melded now with Obama black liberation, Marxism and Fascism of the Nazi order."

I certainly hope that Mr. Lame Cherry is wrong in his analysis - but the evidence of Obama's actions appear to show his analysis is...pardon the pun...dead on.

We Need A Hero...


...to save us from ourselves!

This is a great song from the Jars of Clay CD - The Long Fall Back To Earth.



Jars of Clay "Hero" lyrics:

One spot on an empty canvas
One chair in an empty room
No place for a revolution
No hope if the signs are true
We stand at the edge of something
Will we ever know what it is?
Hold on cause the wind is rising
And we can't get away from it

Were in shock from the failed emotion
No cause in the shadow land
We sing while the city's burning
No room, no escape, no plan
We all never thought it would end this way

AND WE NEED A HERO
TO SAVE US FROM OURSELVES
WE NEED A HERO
TO SAVE US FROM OURSELVES

SAVE US FROM OURSELVES
SAVE US FROM OUR FEAR
WHEN THE SIRENS WAIL
WE NEED A HERO HERE

SAVE US FROM OURSELVES
SAVE US FROM OUR FEAR
WHEN THE SIRENS WAIL
WE NEED A HERO HERE

We hide on our knees in silence
Maybe God doesn't hear at all
And the wait overtakes the violence
And we watch as the giants fall
We're not gonna let it end this way

Thanking Our Troops In The Cause For Freedom

This video of former President George W. Bush and former First Lady Laura Bush welcoming our troops home brought tears to my eyes - for so many reasons. For one thing, respect, honor and trust were in style. Thank you to our brave returning soldiers! And, thank you Mr. and Mrs. GW Bush, for pleasantly surprising our brave soldiers upon their return. They valiantly served our country to liberate the Iraqis from tyranny and oppression! Thank you ALL for keeping America safe and the place where FREEDOM RINGS!

Why Is NYC Refusing To Allow Rebuilding of Christian Church?

Investigative Report on Radical Imam Rauf [Update]

Last week, on the way to a restaurant, my husband was playing with his new app on his Ipad. The application "listens" to the music and lyrics of a song on the radio, and then tells you the name of the song and the artist. When The Coffeehouse station on XM radio played a particular song, I recognized it immediately and beat the app in naming the song, and then the artist (or so I thought). The song was "Come Away With Me" and I stated (incorrectly), "by Norah O'Donnell."

My husband said, "No! "It's Norah Jones! Who the heck is Norah O'Donnell?"

I laughed to myself when I realized that Norah O'Donnell is that nitwit "reporter" over on the GE sponsored (you know - the people who "bring evil to life" as Glenn Beck says - ha!) MSNBC, which is one of the worst organization within the media of mass deception.

Perhaps the term "nitwit" is too soft. After all, anyone who says what Norah recently said actually deserves the title of absolute and blithering idiot!!

posted by John Schulenburg at Gateway Pundit - 30 minutes ago

Act! For America sent me the following email today. If O'Donnell (or anyone else at MSNBC) had any real investigative skills, she might learn what this organization discovered through extensive research!



Exposing the real Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf

Dear Christine,

This past Friday, President Obama waded into the Ground Zero Mosque controversy, asserting it was a religious freedom issue.

Memo to President Obama and the politically correct elites in media, politics, academia and elsewhere: We’re not disputing First Amendment rights here.

We are not opposed to the first amendment right to build a mosque. We are opposed to the erection of a mosque on the sacred ground of Ground Zero, because this will be viewed by tens of millions in the Muslim world as a victory shrine. This will embolden those committed to jihad against America and swell their ranks.

We are opposed to the stunning insensitivity toward the 9/11 victims by Imam Rauf and those supporting him in this endeavor.

And we are concerned about the real agenda for this mosque, an agenda that includes the advance of sharia law, which is why we bring you this email today. In this extensive expose’ below learn for yourself who the real Imam Rauf is—hardly the “moderate” he and his apologists claim he is.

If you haven’t yet done so, please sign our petition opposing the Ground Zero Mosque. One national poll now shows that 54% of Democrats, 70% of Independents, and 82% of Republicans are opposed to the Ground Zero Mosque.


The following report is in PDF form - and WELL WORTH THE READ! Please share with everyone you know. With terribly misinformed reporters like Norah O'Donnell - who has obviously been helplessly fooled by the taqiyyah-minded radical Islamists - who needs additional enemies?




Excerpt:


quote:
Feisal Abdul Rauf By Alyssa Lappen
An investigative report prepared for ACT! for America

Feisal Abdul Rauf, born in Kuwait in 1948, boasts of his issue from an “Egyptian family steeped in religious scholarship.” 1 He presents himself as a Muslim moderate.2 Yet Feisal Rauf's Muslim Brotherhood provenance, radical by definition, is as authentic as it gets.

Evidence of family, and direct Rauf Muslim Brotherhood connections

Rauf's father Dr. Muhammad Abdul Rauf (1917-2004), was an Egyptian contemporary of Muslim Brotherhood (MB) founder Hassan al-Banna.


Rauf's father studied and taught at Islam's closest equivalent to the Vatican --- Al-Azhar University --- beside Hassan al-Banna, perpetuating the pious family tradition of radicalism.


In 1948, Rauf's father fled Egypt, during its first MB crackdown; Feisal was born in Kuwait. 3


In 1965, Feisal's father left Malaysia for New York City to stealthily buy two thirds of an E. 96th Street block for an Islamic “personal trust,” revealing its $1.3 million Islamic money from Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Libya only after construction of the MB mosque began in 1984. 4


Likewise, 46 Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) nations funded the $17 million Islamic Cultural Center, only after its 1992 opening did Rauf's father reveal that funding source or admit his long-term plans for discriminatory Muslim-only housing for the Islamic complex. 5


Rauf's father named Feisal as a permanent trustee of the MB mosque.


Under Feisal's permanent trusteeship, ICC employed Al-Azhar imam Muhammad Gemeaha. A week after fleeing the U.S. on Sept. 28, 2001 he stated, “only the Jews” could have perpetrated 9/11; Allah says Jews “disseminate corruption in the land,” spread “heresy, homosexuality, alcoholism, and drugs.” Americans would exterminate Jews like “Hitler did” if they knew.


ICC then hired Al-Azhar envoy Omar Saleem Abu-Namous. He too saw no “conclusive evidence” that Muslims committed the atrocities, but rather saw Muslims as innocent victims. 6


At Perdana Global Peace Organization, an MB, Hamas and al-Qaeda affiliate, Rauf is second in command to antisemitic former Malaysian P.M. and Islamic law advocate Mahathir Mohamad,7 who in Nov. 2002, incited global anti-West financial war as a “jihad worth fighting for.”8


On May 7, 2010, Rauf himself stated, “Some people say ... Muslims ... attacked on 9/11 … ”9


In 2001 on 60 Minutes, Rauf called U.S. policies “an accessory to the crime that happened,” and said, “In … the most direct sense, Osama bin Laden was made in the USA.” 10


Rauf wants to impose sharia in the U.S. His 2004 book, What's Right with Islam, is translated into Malay as the Call from the WTC Rubble. 11


In Dec. 2007 Rauf promoted the book at a Kuala Lumpur Hizb ut Tahrir (HT) meeting. 12 Banned in Germany since 2003 and outlawed in Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia, Turkey and Saudi Arabia, among other places --- the organization is ideologically akin to the MB.


In the fiscal year ended Jun. 30, 2009, Feisal's ASMA accepted at least $1.3 million, including $576,312 from Qatar,13 whose government stands accused of funding international terrorism, has long harbored terror financiers, and for decades hosted Muslim Brotherhood spiritual chief Yusuf al-Qaradawi. Rauf is quite friendly with Qaradawi, a large, founding shareholder in terror-funding al-Taqwa Bank who champions sharia law, wife beating and suicide bombing. 14


Rauf concluded in the Washington Post, shortly after President Obama's June 2009 Cairo speech, that he'd challenged Muslims to “Live up to the tenets of our religion, embrace Shariah law as conceived by the Prophet, and see what happens.” 15


Rauf seeks more U.S. legal “leeway” for sharia --- to put Muslims above the law --- by

“[Inviting] voices of all religions to join the dialogue in shaping the nation’s practical life, [and allowing] religious communities ... to judge ...according to their own laws.16


On Dec. 9, 2007, Rauf said in Arabic to Sa’da Abdul Maksoud of the Hadi-el-Islam website, that current, unjust governments, “do not follow Islamic laws.” He advocates establishing sharia

“in more [ways than one] ... through a kingdom or a democracy, [so long as the] fundamentals of Shariah [exist, with standards of Muslim scholars] required to
govern. ...to organize ... relationships between government ... and the governed.” 17


In March 2010, also in Arabic, Rauf stridently denounced interfaith discussions. “I don't believe in interfaith dialogue,” he said in an article that highlighted his statement in its headline. 18


Rauf's Manhattan ASMA offices at 475 Riverside Drive occupy the suite next door to Council of American-Islamic-Relations (CAIR) of NY; its national parent is the U.S. arm of the MB terrorist group, Hamas, and an unindicted coconspirator in the 2008 Holy Land Foundation terror financing case in which the organization and five officers were convicted.19


At the Jul. 13, 2010 New York Landmarks hearing on the fate a 152-year-old wrought-iron era building where a piece of jet fuselage fell through its roof on 9/11 --- CAIR-NY executive director Zaed Ramadan supported destroying the structure opposite Ground Zero to build Rauf's 15 story mosque, a monument to Muslim victory to tower above the memorial site. 20


Rauf and his wife Daisy Khan in 2009 both refused to sign a Freedom Pledge to protect former Muslims from the death sentence sought by most sharia interpretations for Muslim apostates. On Oct. 20, 2009, Former Muslims United asked ASMA's executives to pledge to

“renounce, repudiate and oppose any physical intimidation, or worldly and corporal
punishment, of apostates ..., [however] that punishment may be determined or carried out by myself or any other Muslim including the [apostate's] family, community, Mosque leaders, Shariah court or judge, and Muslim government or regime.”21


Rauf's 2000 and 2004 books both laud sharia and envision implementing it in the U.S. – and “rejuvenating” the Islamic spirit of 14th century jurist Taqi al-Din Ahmad Ibn Taymiyyah and his 18th century heir Muhammad bin Abdul al-Wahhab. Rauf also lauds purported “modernists” Jamal al-Dinal-Afghani (d. 1897) and Muhammad Abduh (d. 1905) who revered Wahhabis, Ibn Taymiyyah and like Rauf pretended sharia – with perennial jihad and countless strictures on non-Muslims and women – complements Western ideas like those in the U.S. Bill of Rights. 22


Rauf also authorized two mainstay MB organizations, the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) and the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) to produce “a special non-commercial edition” of his 2004 book to promote “proper [Western] understanding of Islam...”23


Rauf's ASMA in 2004 established the purportedly liberal Muslim Leaders of Tomorrow.24 Its liberal faces are largely overwhelmed by sharia devotees like al Qaeda supporter Yasir Qadhi,25 CAIR-NY community affairs director Faiza N. Ali --- who co-authored CAIR's fallacious “denunciation” of a superb 2008 NYPD report on homegrown jihadists --- and CAIR-NY community organizer Debbie Almontaser, who once ran the city's Khalil Gibran Academy.26


Since at least 2006, Rauf's U.S.-based Cordoba Initiative has partnered with Gallup Organization and “Sunni and Shi'a scholars from Morocco to Indonesia” to create “an Islamic legal benchmark for measuring 'Islamicity' of a state”---sharia index---for official, state, public and press use in the “Muslim and Western worlds.” He initiated the project, funded by Malaysia and many other nations in the 57-member Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC). 27


A key sharia index board member, Jasser Auda, doubles on the academic council at the U.K. the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) office and in summer 2010 taught with Muslim Brotherhood heavies---e.g. former ISNA leadership development head Louay Safi, IIIT v.p. and NAIT founding general manager Jamal Barzinji and Minaret of Freedom head Imad Ad Deen Ahmad, present at the Beirut terrorist convention in January 2001. No mistaking their intent. /end quote

Update:

Just when you think you have read all that there is to know about Rauf and the proposed Ground Zero mosque, read Big Peace: Ground Zero Mosque’s Hidden Websites: Follow the Shariah.

Excerpt:

Do the math. The 15 floors planned for the Ground Zero Mosque just don’t add up.

What’s the goal? Maybe the Imam’s goal is not simply to force a provocative “insensitivity” about 9-11 on the American public, with the help of America’s elites. Maybe the Imam’s long-term goal is to force Shariah law on the American public – of course, again, with the help of America’s elites.

Second Update:

Here's an interesting essay posted at Bible Prophecy Today: The Prophecy of Ishmael and the Ground Zero Islamic Center.

See the comment section for additional discussion about Ishmael and Bible prophecy regarding him and his decendants.

Even Bush Haters Miss Him Now?


Obama is doing such a great job pi**ing people off (even many in his "base") that some former Bush haters are "missing Bush" and longing for Bush's opinion on the 9/11 Ground Zero mosque debacle.

But of course, one Bush hater STILL can't resist engaging in their usual political spew-fest, even while giving his piece the title, Why I Miss George Bush.

Liberals are so desperate for clarity from a politician (even one in whom they hated for eight years) in whom they think might agree with their "Islam is peace" mantra, that they would even turn to George W. Bush to find out What Would George W. Bush Would Do About the Ground Zero Mosque?

Crazy...isn't it?

Meanwhile, their wonderful fraud-in-chief, the confused ObaMARXIST is In L.A. California raising millions of dollars for more criminal progressives and in so doing, caused a massive traffic jam on Monday evening that ended up snarling traffic and causing tired working commuters a four hour ride home from their jobs.

Yeah. I can see why even some liberals who once hated Bush are missing him. But not for the same reasons that I and most conservatives miss him - moral and political sanity - for one thing.

Ronald Reagan: Those Voices Don't Speak for the Rest of Us

I think that this new ad is the best one that I have ever seen! Via Gateway Pundit:

Those Voices Don't Speak for the Rest of Us.




Can also watch on Youtube

For those of you not familar, this is from Reagans speech on October 27, 1964. It is called "A Time for Choosing".

It is about 29 minutes long, please go and watch the rest of it.



Brings back to my memory such a wonderful time when America had a REAL, GENUINE, NATURAL BORN CITIZEN PRESIDENT - Ronald Reagan - who loved America, served our people, supported our military, believed in the vision of our Founding Fathers, worked to uphold our Constitution and showed honor, respect, and dignity for our Republic!

Which Defines You? Loyalist or Patriot? [Update]


The following essay is cross posted from Worth Reading Blog. I think that the eleven year old young girl in the essay got it right when she said that she and her family are Patriots. The writer of the essay has labeled the supporters of the status quo as Loyalists. Loyal to whom and/or what? Read the essay to find out.

I personally think that the choice is quite obvious now.

Loyalist or Patriot?
EDITOR'S NOTE: This was first published on 'Paratus Familia' blog, and is so Worth Reading we are cross posting it here. Cheers to "Enola Gay"


Miss Calamity (our eleven year old daughter) stunned me the other day with an incredibly astute observation. She informed me that ours is a family of Patriots. Now that statement, in and of itself, may not seem earth shattering, but it got me thinking. If we were patriots, what were the people who staunchly support the entrenched establishment? After thinking long and hard, I came to the conclusion that the supporters of the status quo must be called "Loyalists".

Looking up the definitions of both Loyalist and Patriot, I made a startling discovery. The definition of a loyalist is: One who maintains loyalty to an established government, political party, or sovereign, especially during war or revolutionary change. Conversely, here is the definition of a patriot: One who loves and loyally or zealously supports one's own country. Do you see the difference? One supports the established government and the other supports their country! What a revolutionary idea! Literally.

As I watch our State and Federal governments in action, I see a wholesale group of loyalists. They are loyal to their programs, they are loyal to their pet projects and they are loyal to their pocket books. Ultimately, they are loyal to themselves. Nowhere do I see a loyalty to their country or their countrymen.

Patriots have become icons of terrorism. They have been labeled as enemy combatants and dissidents. They have been marginalized for their love of country and staunch support of the ideals on which this great country was built. We, as Patriots have become the enemy.

We are a country divided. The terms "Republican" and "Democrat" no longer apply. We are either Patriots or Loyalists. Lovers of government and tyranny or lovers of country and freedom. We are being thrust into a new era, that is, in fact, but another chapter in the story of liberty.

As said by one of the Great Patriots: Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace-- but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

We stand on a precipice. Patriot or Loyalist. Tyranny or Liberty. Security (supposed) or Freedom. We all make a choice, either consciously or passively. Choose you this day who you will serve - the author of oppression or the Father of liberty. Will you meekly serve your masters or are you willing to suffer and perhaps even die in the name of Liberty and Freedom. Choose you this day.

Speaking of Patriotic loyalty, the following is a MUST READ! And take the time to read all of the links provided too!

Daily Thought Pad: Is pResident Obama Loyal to America... or To Someone Else?

Excerpt:

Since President Obama’s administration:

§ The Ft. Hood massacre (i.e. “man-caused disaster”) killed 13 Americans.

§ Fatalities of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan have increased by 330%.

§ There’s been a 620% increase in the number of wounded U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan.

§ I.E.D. deaths in Afghanistan have increased by 625%.

§ The underwear bomber would have killed Americans and others if the civilians on the plane had not intervened to stop him.

§ The Time Square bomber would have killed Americans if not for his own incompetence.

Germany and Spain closed mosques in their country within the last few weeks, yet the media has remained quiet about it. (See reference articles below).
The Ground Zero mosque would require the Islamic judicial system pursued by Imam Rauf – Sharia law. Among the gems found in Sharia law: death to Gays and Lesbians; enslavement and persecution of women; and honor killings.
Imam Rauf says that “Islamic law and justice begins in religious movements.” Infiltrating religious movements as a way to bring Islamic law and justice to America sheds new light on Imam Rauf’s pursuit of a mosque at Ground Zero.
Imam Rauf is involved in the Flotilla excursions to Gaza which intend to conquer Israel by driving them out of the Gaza strip. Imam Rauf has helped to finance the Flotillas and a September/October excursion is planned on the ship they named “Audacity of Hope,” inspired by President Obama’s book of the same name… which was inspired by Reverend Jeremiah Wright. Oh… and President Obama’s friends, Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn and Rashid Khalidi are also involved in the aggressive mission of these Flotilla.
What will America do with this information? Will America ignore it, or will America stand against infiltration which places its citizens, its judicial system, its national security and its allies at risk?

Will America care that President Obama, has brought Imam Rauf into the center of our national security?
