In this war there is no second place.
As I said on 9-17-2005 "The Palestinians are flooding into the Gaza Strip from Egypt. If Al-Qaeda is setting up headquarters and training camps the Israelis will have every right to attack and defend themselves if attacked. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/ArticleNews/TPStory/LAC/20050915/RAFAH15/TPInternational/Africa. Maybe that was their plan all along."
As I wrote on 11-06-2005 "Terrorism is the murdering of the innocent. The Islamic fascist subjugate women, hate Jews and execute homosexuals. This is a religious war, Osama bin Laden's speeches are filled with religious arguments and theological language. Many Muslims throughout the world have not denounced the Islamic fascist they have been silent in their criticism and even celebrate them. This is a fundamentalist war against humanity against those that believes in freedom and modernity."
From 12-01-2005 "World War III, or the cold war, lasted fifty years. World War IV, the war on terrorism, could last even longer.
This war will end only when the terrorist are all dead or they give up their idea that we must all be dead. We are in Iraqi now and we must chase the terrorist to the ends of the earth. There can be no place for them to hide. This war has everything to do with 9-11. THERE IS NO SECOND PLACE."
From 2-08-2006 "The enemy (radical Islam) has shown its forces mustering hundred of thousands to go into the streets and fight for their cause violence and anarchy, slavery and death. Hammas wins election, takes authority over the Palestinians. Let's see if they are for jihad and commit suicide (I'm sure the Israelis will help} or will work for peace and freedom."
Well I guess the Israelis have decided to take the war to Hamas, into Gaza and Lebanon. The U.S. has to support them and go into Syria.

"The media in the United States is very uncomfortable in attributing religious motivations to violence. We see this in the case of the Palestinian suicide bombers who are often described as motivated by poverty and frustration, rather than by religious ideology. In Darfur, there is indeed a religious component to the violence; after all, the Khartoum government is an Islamo-fascist one."

India suspects Pakistani group over bombs
By Krittivas Mukherjee
MUMBAI (Reuters) - Indian officials named Pakistan-based militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba on Thursday as the prime suspect behind bombings that killed at least 156 people in Mumbai, as police said they had detained about 20 people.
Speaking on Pakistani television Pakistan's President Pervez Musharraf offered assurances to Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh of cooperation into Tuesday's coordinated attacks on India's largest city and financial hub.
Indian investigators have made sketches of three suspects seen at sites of the attacks, which targeted crowded railway carriages and stations.
"So far it looks like there was a substantial involvement of Lashkar-e-Taiba with local support," D.K. Shankaran, the most senior bureaucrat in Maharashtra state government, told Reuters.

Bangladesh - From
Islam In Bangladesh
Compiled By OurBangla.com
Most Muslims in Bangladesh are Sunnis, but there is a small Shia community. Most of those who are Shia reside in urban areas.
Although Islam played a significant role in the life and culture of the people, religion did not dominate national politics because Islam was not the central component of national identity. When in June 1988 an "Islamic way of life" was proclaimed for Bangladesh by constitutional amendment, very little attention was paid outside the intellectual class to the meaning and impact of such an important national commitment. Most observers believed that the declaration of Islam as the state religion might have a significant impact on national life, however. Aside from arousing the suspicion of the non-Islamic minorities, it could accelerate the proliferation of religious parties at both the national and the local levels, thereby exacerbating tension and conflict between secular and religious politicians. Unrest of this nature was reported on some college campuses soon after the amendment was promulgated.
, Muslims in Britain The London transport bombings of July 2005
prompted no less than eight surveys of Muslim opinion in the United
Kingdom within the year. When added to two surveys from 2004, they
provide in the aggregate a unique insight into the thinking of the
nearly 2 million Muslims in "Londonistan."
The hostile mentality they portray is especially alarming when
one recalls that London's police commissioner, Sir Ian Blair, recently
said that the threat of terrorism "is very grim" because there are, "as
we speak, people in the UK planning further atrocities."
The 7/7 attacks: About one in 20 British Muslims has voiced
overt sympathy for the bombings a year ago. Separate polls find that
between 2 and 6 percent endorse the attacks, 4 percent refuse to
condemn them, 5 percent believe the Koran justifies them, and 6 percent
say that the suicide bombers were acting in accord with the principles
of Islam.
Without endorsing the attacks, far larger numbers show an
understanding for them: 13 percent say the 7/7 suicide bombers should
be regarded as "martyrs," 16 percent say the attacks were wrong but the
cause was right, while 20 percent feel sympathy for the "feelings and
motives" of the attackers. A whopping 56 percent can see "why some
people behave in that way."

Mogadishu
Mogadishu's main port which has been closed for the last 10 years was fully handed today over to the Islamic Courts that took control of the Capital recently from warlords.
Militiamen loyal to Mohamoud Jama Furuh, Somalia assistant minister for the ports and sea transportation has been controlling the main port for the last years and officially handed it to the Islamic Courts today.
"We are very much appreciated to hand Mogadishu main port over the Islamic Courts and encourage other national properties be handed over" he said
Dear Fellow Patriots,
A good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit (Matt 7:18). It is time you opened your eyes and thoughtfully absorb the consequences of supporting an administration for partisan, patriotic, or even religious purposes. I am sure that many of you who have staunchly defended these leaders have done so for altruistic purposes. However, there comes a point in time that one must sincerely consider, critique, and act upon facts rather than rhetoric.
How can any of you believe that George W. Bush is a man of God when the fruits of this man’s presidency are burning before our eyes? He has lied from day one of his candidacy for 2000, beginning with his claims of being a “Compassionate Conservative,” and a “Uniter, not a Divider,” and he continues to lie. Has America been a good neighbor under this administration? Have we been good world citizens? I would argue that we have not. We have not considered the innocent people of Iraq in our calculations, under the leadership of an administration that contradicts itself as it claims, “We are the liberators of Iraq,” while telling us that “We’d rather fight them over there.” We have not considered the brave patriots that we have squandered in our battle of false premise. We have not thoughtfully scrutinized not only the devastating impact upon the Middle East, but the impact that these actions have and will ultimately continue to have on American families. What happened to the good-will of the entire world for our country? They have not been wise stewards.
When will this man be held accountable for his lies and the devastating consequences of those lies? There was courage upon the “Hill” to impeach a president guilty of personal indiscretions, personal dishonesty, but when it comes to a president and his administration that has cost this world unquantifiable hardship and a disturbing loss of life that continues to unfold; cowardice is the mode of operation.
Our political leaders have used their pens to send our bravest citizens into what has now become a nest of barbarity while tacitly encouraging savagery that has already cost our soldiers and their families dearly. Why? They have flagrantly dismissed the rules of war and have consistently strived to circumvent the Constitution that they claim to defend. Why? They said is was to protect us. That was a lie. They said it was to liberate. That was a lie.
Are you going to be complacent in this struggle? We are fighting for more than the prevention of terrorism—we are fighting for our true moral purpose in this world. And I ask you, what is it that you think the moral purpose of our country is? Is it to bear good fruit, or is it to complacently rally our leaders regardless of their actions or the consequences of those actions?
We must fight with our pens now—pick up your pen for this country. Pick up your pen for our service men and women; pick up your pen in opposition to greed, in opposition to arrogance, in opposition to deceit, and in opposition to the oppression of our neighbors. This administration must be held accountable.
The pen is mightier than the sword.
