Hamas Reiterates Prior to Unity Gov’t: They Will Never Recognize Israel, Israel Must be Destroyed

05/11/2011 Leave a comment

“Hamas would be willing to accept a Palestinian state within 1967 borders, a leader of the militant group, Mahmoud Zahar, told the Palestinian news agency Ma’an on Wednesday, adding, however, that Hamas would never recognize Israel since such a move would counter the group’s aim to ‘liberate’ all of Palestine.

Zahar’s comments come amid Palestinian efforts to form a unity government that would include former rivals Fatah and Hamas, following a reconciliation agreement the two factions signed last week in Cairo.

Speaking to Ma’an on Wednesday, Zahar, hinting at the possible political line of a future Palestinian unity cabinet, said that recognizing Israel would ‘preclude the right of the next generations to liberate the lands,’ wondering: ‘What will be the fate of the five million Palestinians in the diaspora?'”  Read more.

The Yemen-based fugitive warned Americans not to fool themselves that the ‘matter will be over’ with the killing of bin Laden, the Saudi-born architect of the September 11, 2001 attacks.

‘Do not think of the battle superficially … What is coming is greater and worse, and what is awaiting you is more intense and harmful,’ Wahishi said, according to a SITE translation.”  Read more.

Yemeni-American Passenger on Flight to San Fancisco Attacks Cockpit Door Shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’

05/10/2011 Leave a comment

“SAN FRANCISCO – The passengers sat stunned as they watched a man walk quickly toward the front of American Airlines Flight 1561 as it was descending toward San Francisco. He was screaming and then began pounding on the cockpit door…

Almurisi went toward the cockpit door 30 minutes before the flight from Chicago was supposed to land on Sunday night, San Francisco airport police Sgt. Michael Rodriguez said. Almurisi was yelling unintelligibly as he brushed past a flight attendant.

Marty, 35, recalled that she and other passengers on the plane were stunned when they saw Almurisi walking down the aisle. She said a woman in a row across from her who speaks Arabic translated that Almurisi said ‘God is Great!’ in Arabic.

Andrew Wai, another passenger, told KGO-TV on Monday that the wife of one of the men who took Almurisi down later said Almurisi was yelling ‘Allahu Akbar.’

‘There was no question in everybody’s mind that he was going to do something,’ Marty said.” Read more.

Islam a Threat to Western Freedom: Wilders

05/10/2011 1 comment

By Jessica Hume – “The presence of Muslims in Canada threatens the country’s freedoms and democracy, and only if immigration from Islamic countries is suspended can the cultural deterioration of the country be stopped, controversial Dutch politician Geert Wilders told a packed house Monday night in Toronto.

‘Our Western culture is far superior to Islamic culture,’ Mr. Wilders said. ‘And only once we are convinced of this will we be able to defend our civilization.’

The event, held at the Canadian Christian College in north Toronto, marked Mr. Wilders’ second stop on a three-city tour. The visit, his first to Canada, is sponsored by the International Free Press Society.” Read more.

Intelligence Officials: More Warnings of al-Qaida Terror Plots Coming

05/09/2011 Leave a comment

By Ronald Kessler – “The FBI Laboratory has custody of the more than 100 items seized in the raid of Osama bin Laden’s compound, and clues from this material will likely lead to warnings of more al-Qaida plots, intelligence officials tell Newsmax.

The bureau played a key role in helping to train U.S. Navy SEALs for their mission, focusing on the commandos’ task of gathering evidence about al-Qaida in the compound. After 9/11, the FBI took on the role of safeguarding any material seized in U.S. counterterrorism actions around the globe. It helped to preserve the chain of custody should the material be presented as evidence in a prosecution by the United States or by other countries. In addition, the FBI is in the best position to analyze fingerprints, DNA traces, and handwriting.” Read more.

Egypt: 50,000 Attend Islamist Rally: ‘The United Arab States and the United Islamic States are Inevitably Coming, and Soon We Will Have One Caliph to Rule Us All’

05/09/2011 Leave a comment

They say that attacks against Coptic Christians in Egypt is wrong because they’re ‘protected by Islam’ as Dhimmis who pay the Jizya tax.  But what they don’t tell you, of course, is that the Jizya tax upon non-Muslims will be abolished by the ‘Islamic Jesus’ either because all non-Muslims will have already been killed, or because it will remove the so-called ‘protection’ given to Dhimmis (non-Muslims) that are still alive because by this time “all mankind will be required to embrace Islam with no alternative”, or be killed …

By Hany ElWaziry – “More than 50,000 people on Saturday attended a joint rally held by the Muslim Brotherhood group and Salafis in Haram district, Giza.

The organizers chanted slogans stating that the Brotherhood and the Salafis are one, and that both seek to apply the Islamic Sharia.

‘The United Arab States and the United Islamic States are inevitably coming,’ said prominent Salafi preacher Safwat Hegazy at the rally. ‘And soon we will have one caliph to rule us all.’

Hegazy condemned those who burnt the church in Imbaba on Saturday. ‘They are not Salafis or Brothers, nor are they Egyptians,’ he said. ‘They are the enemy that incites sectarian strife.’

Salafi preacher Mohamed Hassan, for his part, called on all Islamic groups to reassure Muslims and Christians alike. ‘Egypt does not belong to the Muslims alone,” he said. “And Copts are protected by Islam. They need not resort to the United States for that.'” Source.

“An Anglican bishop in the Church of England has criticized the West’s reticence on violence against Christians and other minority communities in the Middle East, South Asia and other parts of the world.

Writing in the latest edition of Standpoint magazine, Bishop Michael Nazir-Ali said the United Nations had taken the necessary steps to protect people in Libya from attacks by their own government, but questioned why the United Nations or the West was ‘unable to tackle the widespread and growing persecution of Christians?’

He voiced particular concern over Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan, where the Christian communities face regular attacks and harassment at the hands of Muslims.”  Read more.
