MidnightWatcher – Prophecy in Motion

I missed this news story from a couple of weeks ago. Looks like Hollywood has officially decided to stick with attacking Christianity instead …

2 Timothy 3:12,14-15, “Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted… however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of … which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.”

The Express Tribune – “Film-makers in Hollywood are terrified of inciting further retribution against America over a string of new films showing the US mission to kill Osama Bin Laden.

The shooting for two films is complete and they are scheduled for release before Christmas, with a third awaiting the go-ahead. All are under scrutiny after protests across the Islamic world and the killing of the US ambassador in the Libyan city of Benghazi over the anti-Islam US film on Prophet Muhammad… according to the Daily Express.

At least one fearful studio has asked an Islamic cleric to vet its script. Senior executives at another studio have entered into intense briefing sessions with US State Department officials to minimise or expunge any content which otherwise might be viewed as offensive.

Filmmakers are worried that fundamentalists could target cinemas where the films are playing, with one admitting: ‘We are even asking if we dare release anything on this subject.'” Source – The Express Tribune.

Family Security Matters – “In the Spring of this year, US Army Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Dooley was condemned by the Joints Chiefs of Staff (JCS) and relieved of teaching duties at Joint Forces Staff College for teaching a course judged to be offensive to Islam.

The course he taught, Perspectives on Islam and Islamic Radicalism, was an elective course that Lt. Col. Dooley’s superiors judged as presenting Islam in a negative way. His superiors were persuaded to come to this conclusion after receiving an October 2011 letter in which 57 Muslim organizations claimed to be offended by the course.

The fact that Lt. Col. Dooley is a highly decorated combat veteran with  nearly 20 years of service under his belt apparently held little or no sway with the JCS.  As a matter of fact, JCS Chairman General Martin Dempsey ‘personally attacked‘ Lt. Col. Dooley on C-Span on May 10, 2012, during a Pentagon News Conference.” Source – Family Security Matters.

Flashback: US Marines Warned: Act More Muslim, Don’t Spit Towards Mecca – “But wait, that’s not all. They’re no longer permitted to urinate facing towards Mecca, either. And it doesn’t matter which way the wind is blowing. Unfortunately, Karzai still isn’t impressed. I guess the only upside to this ridiculous politically correct brainlessness is the likelihood that a Muslim extremist or two are having difficulty strapping up their suicide vests or burying their IEDs from all the laughter …” Read more.

Flashback: American Military Continues to Submit to Islam: Cross Removed at Base in Afghanistan – “A large cross that had been prominently displayed outside a chapel on an isolated military base in northern Afghanistan was taken down last week, prompting outrage from some American service members stationed there. ‘We are here away from our families, and the chapel is the one place that feels like home’ … ‘With the cross on the outside, it is a constant reminder for all of us that Jesus is here for us.’ ‘Not having it there is really upsetting,’ added another. ‘I walk by the chapel daily on the way to chow and the gym, and seeing the cross is a daily reminder of my faith and what Jesus accomplished for me.’” Read more.

Interesting discussion took place recently on The Glazov Gang with “Experiencing Islam” author James E. Horn, “Capitalism 101” author Leon Weinstein and Chapter Leader of Calabasas-West Valley ACT!, Shari Goodman. Watch the full segment below …

Host: “This film maker, Nakoula Bacile Nakoula, has been arrested. And, I mean, since when do people get dragged out in the middle of the night in America for a probation violation? This is obviously got something to do with Obama following out Islamic blasphemy codes… Tell us a little bit about your knowledge of something called the ‘false flag’ and what you think is happening here.”

James E. Horn, Author of ‘Experiencing Islam’: “People on probation, they get checked by the probation officers at any time. If they do something stupid they can get hauled in. But it’s a guy in a jacket with a badge, not the top law enforcement officer in this district of California. And that’s what they did, and by doing it the way they’ve done it, they have made the Islamists overseas think that they’ve arrested this guy because of the movie, not because it’s a parole violation… As far as this being a false flag, a false flag operation is where you take a person or an individual or group of people and you make them into something that they’re really not, but you make other people over here believe [it] …”

Host: “What you’re saying is that this film maker is not who he says he is, or who we say he is …”

James E. Horn, Author of ‘Experiencing Islam’: “He’s not who he says he is. I think that he’s an al-Qaeda plant… He was sent over here [to] stir trouble. His behavior is not characteristic of a Copt.”

He then places these forms of identification into the hands of dubious characters that are not the real identity.” Read more.

It is worth repeating that when the Prophet Daniel wrote in 7:25 that Antichrist would intend to “change” or “make alterations” to times and laws, it is clear in my mind that the “laws” were a direct reference to the desired implementation and subjugation of Sharia Law upon all non-Muslims, regardless of where they lived. But seeking to change the “times” may not have simply been referring to changing Greenwich Mean Time with Mecca Time or replacing the Gregorian calendar of Christianity with the Hijri calendar of Islam. It may have also been referring to something that we’re witnessing this very day both inside and outside the Muslim world: the rewriting of history …

Daniel 7:25a, “He will speak out against the Most High and wear down the saints of the Highest One, and he will intend to make alterations in times and in law …” (NASB)

By Louis Palme – “Muslims have been raising the claim that it [was] Muslims who discovered America before Columbus. It’s no better than their more recent claim that Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon, heard the Muslim call to prayer (azan) while there, and converted to Islam, and then moved to Lebanon. (Well, he did live in Lebanon, Ohio.)

Columbus Day follows the Muslim Day celebration in New York City by just a few weeks, so it is not surprising that Muslim leaders have tried to steal the credit for that historic achievement. After all, taking something that does not belong to them is part of their ideology (Surah 48:20) and the cherished traditions of their prophet. (Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 7, Number 331)

The discovery of America by Columbus was one of the most remarkable human achievements of the 15th Century, just as landing on the moon was in our own lifetime. But those two events would have been only historical footnotes had Christopher Columbus and Neil Armstrong merely made one-way journeys. In fact, the expeditions would have been remembered as foolish, ill-conceived, and inhumane stunts. With that in mind, let’s consider the claim that Muslims discovered America before Columbus.

On September 25, 2011, American Muslims held their 26^thAnnual Muslim Day Parade in New York City with banners, leaflets, and of course, the now-predictable mass prayer in the middle of Madison Avenue. One of the leaflets that got my attention, mostly for its lack of syntax, was headlined, ‘Islam is Not Anti-Systemic’ by a local African-American Imam, Aiyub Abdul-Baqi.

Based on the title, one might think that the leaflet was a denial of the anti-Semitism that is infused throughout the Quran (e.g., Surahs 5:60, 5:82, 9:28-30, and 62:5). Actually, there was no mention of Jews anywhere in the document.  Instead, the hand-out argued that Islam ‘is as American as apple pie.’ Furthermore, ‘Muslims were here before the Christian European conquest of America [1492] and we are here today.’ Imam Abdul-Baqi arrogantly upped the ante by adding, ‘For those seeking to obtain knowledge, they can read ‘They Came Before Columbus’ by Dr. Ivan Van Sertima and ‘Deeper Roots’ by Dr. Abdullah Hakim Quick, which documents (sic) Muslims [sic] history in America and Caribbean [sic] up to the present.’

So I tracked down those books along with several other supposedly scholarly works that contend that Muslims reached American before Columbus. The arguments were Read more…

Argenteuil Synagogue

By Angelique Chrisafis, The Guardian – “France has increased security at Jewish religious sites after blank shots were fired at a synagogue west of Paris and police arrested 11 people on suspicion of being part of an Islamist jihadist cell.

François Hollande held talks with Jewish community leaders at the Elysée and announced that security would be stepped up immediately at religious sites. He said the state was ‘totally mobilised against terrorist threats’ and ‘intransigent’ in fighting racism and antisemitism.

On Saturday evening, blank bullets were fired from a car at a synagogue in the Paris suburb of Argenteuil while worshippers were inside the building. Earlier on Saturday, police raids outside Paris, Cannes and Strasbourg led to a series of arrests in connection with what the state prosecutor described as a suspected radical Islamist cell.

The main target in the raids was a 33-year-old man in Strasbourg whose DNA was found on a grenade used in a daylight attack on a Jewish kosher grocery store in Sarcelles, north of Paris, last month, in which one person was wounded. When police arrived to arrest him before dawn on Saturday, he opened fire with a handgun and was shot dead by officers.

A convicted drug dealer, he was described as a ‘delinquent who converted to radical Islam’ and was said by police to have been determined to ‘end as a martyr’. Three of the people arrested had a criminal record for offences such drug-trafficking, theft and violence.” Read more.

Flashback: ‘Worrisome’: The Role of Drug Trafficking in Promoting and Financing Today’s Global Terrorism – “Speaking at a recent conference in Istanbul, ‘The Role of Drug Trafficking in Promoting and Financing Today’s Global Terrorism,’ jointly organized by Turkey, the United States and Colombia, UNODC Senior Terrorism Prevention Officer Irka Kuleshnyk said that ‘While it is difficult to establish how widely terrorist groups are involved in the illicit drug trade, or the breadth and nature of cooperation between these two criminal groups, the magnitude of the numbers involved make the relationship worrisome.’ According to the UNODC’s World Drug Report 2007, the total potential value of Afghanistan’s 2006 opium harvest accruiing to farmers, laboratory owners and Afghan traffickers reached about $US3.1 billion.” Read more.

By Mia Garcia, FOX 10 News – “PHOENIX -A woman claims she was beat by her family for talking to a man and on Friday, those family members were in court.

All three family members plead guilty. The 20-year-old victim had an outburst in court and interrupted the hearing.

She was crying and told the judge this was all her fault and she wants her mother back.

The judge repeatedly asked her to stop interrupting.

The alleged incidents happened when she was 19. Court records show she was burned on her face and chest with a hot spoon after refusing to participate in an arranged marriage with a 38-year-old man.

Records also state that victim was tied to a bed with a rope secured with a padlock until Feb. 8, when she was released to go to school.

The mother, 50-year-old Yusra Farhan, plead guilty to unlawful imprisonment. The father, 45-year-old Mohammed Altameemi, plead guilty to disorderly conduct and her 18-year-old sister, Tabarak Altameemi, plead guilty to misdemeanor assault.” Read more.
