Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi continues to prove his reputation as a "reformist." A new MEMRI report (thanks to Nicolei) on this aging child prodigy, this darling of the Islamic Society of Boston:
"When I was only nine, the people of my village gave me the title 'sheikh [who teaches] the Koran and religious science.' I have devoted myself to religious propagation [ da'wa ] for the sake of Allah, and I have not relinquished the mission that Allah entrusted to me. I see myself as appointed by Allah. I will never withdraw from this mission. I hope my life will end with a virtuous death, like [the death] sought by warriors fighting Jihad for the sake of Allah. I do not defend falsehood or the tyrants … but I defend and am beneficial to the affairs of my nation. I will not relinquish my mission whatever accusations are leveled at me regarding terrorism or other matters." [1]The London Arabic-language daily Al-Hayat reported that Al-Qaradhawi said: "I am not afraid of the Mossad or the Americans." He also said: "The Mossad has threatened to eliminate me, and I hope that Allah will grant me martyrdom [ shahada ] for His sake and that my life will end by my dying at the hands of the enemies of Islam." According to the daily, Al-Qaradhawi hoped to die "a virtuous death" and that this meant "that the head would be severed from the body." [2]
Meanwhile, on the dhimmi front:
London Mayor Livingstone: 'Sheikh Al-Qaradhawi's Ideology is Utterly Remote from Extremism'During the solidarity conference, a film about Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi was aired, in which London Mayor Ken Livingstone appeared. According to a report on Al-Jazeera TV 's Internet site, Livingstone said: "We were surprised by the onslaught of unbridled distortion of facts in the papers, which described this man as a wild animal and presented him as the jurisprudent of Satan... We were therefore of the opinion that it is important to conduct a comprehensive inquiry, in which we will consult with the world's ' ulema and study Dr. Al-Qaradhawi's 140 books.
"The results of the report were astounding. It transpired that most of the fabrications that distorted Dr. Al-Qaradhawi's words come from the institute called 'The Middle East Media Research Institute,' which purports to be an objective institute interpreting the words of the Muslim ' ulema from around the world. However, we have discovered that an ex-officer in the Israeli intelligence, the Mossad, is running this institute and that the institute systematically distorts not only Al-Qaradhawi's words, but the words of many [other] Muslim ' ulema as well. In most cases, this distortion is comprehensive, and therefore we printed this document." [3]
According to the Qatar daily Al-Sharq, Livingstone noted that after special committees had studied Al-Qaradhawi's ideology by reviewing over 140 books, as well as sermons and lectures by Al-Qaradhawi, it was found that "Sheikh Al-Qaradhawi's ideology is utterly remote from extremism." [4]
'Like to die a virtuous dead like a Jihad warrior...'
Not to worry mate, I shall do it for you. Present yourself bound and gagged at a place of your choice, make sure Al Jazeera and Al Manar and CNN are all there, and I will bring my best knife along... If I don't puke or faint in the process I shall be proud to give you the service you so desire, before you can cause any more mischief...

Mind you this is coming from the mouth of Livingston, Londons top ignoramus.
The git refused to apologise for his remarks to a jewish journalist, in which he compared the man to a nazi concentration camp gaurd after the reporter said "I'm just doing my job" (in other words the nazi gaurds used that same excuse, as though a reporter asking the London mayor questions at a press conference, and gaurding captured jews, who've been rounded up with their family, then starved and gassed to death are moral equivalents...... what a dick-head).
Although the comment itself wasn't actually anti-semitic, the way in which he was so insensitive towards the holocaust prooves he has the supremely arrogant attitude towards jews many leftist media gobblers have.... that it's okay to offend jews because Israels the only country in the middle east thats not a third world squalor pit (oh and lets not forget the leftist media brai-washing of the plight of those poor palestinians and their kamikaze kids).
I suspect though that Mr. Livingstone wouldn't be as stubborn about apologizing was it revealed that muslims were offended by his comments. Why , we'd probably have a written , thousand word suck-up addressing the UK muslim population in the Gaurdian.
This man is a poisonous,5th column pro-islamist sycophant and nothing he says on the subject will be treated with anything other than skeptisism, exept for by the screeching, flashing ,freak-show that is the London Cosmopolitan media circus.
So the fact that he praises a islamo-facist lunatic, and dismisses facts about the mans extremist stance is hardly a surprise.... but in a way it's actually a good thing, because it's yet more ammo for the right-wing british media that just love to tarnish his image (whats left of it).
Lets hope his decides to take his final journey to paradise when he's in the good mayors company.... London could do with a replacement, and the islamo-facist could certainly do with an important "martyrdom" op (wonder what Livingstones last thoughts would be as his blood and shredded vitals organs mingled with the disintegrated body parts of Al-Qaradhawi..... probably "I knew I shouldn't have pissed off those Daily Mail/zionist collaboraters !!!")
Terminators thoughts reflect how many people are.
If I dont get sick while cutting your head off; the mere thought of perpetuating such an act brings queasiness to those with morals,and while we contemplate if given the opportunity to carry out such an act whether we would or not the terrorist does not think twice about performing this act because he is brought up with those thoughts in his head.

And this clown with his cronies who researched with genuine zeal the 140 books,sermons,etc. is why concerned citizens such as ourseves must do everything possible to expose the truth that our trusted officials fail to comprehend.
We must test those of whom we seek counsel. Has this person stood in the counsel of the Lord? Have they seen Him and heard His word? Be careful of those who speak for God yet don't follow Him.
"'This is My warning to My people,' says the Lord Almighty. 'Do not listen to these prophets when they prophesy to you, filling you with futile hopes. They are making up everything they say. They do not speak for the Lord! They keep saying to these rebels who despise My word, 'Don't worry! The Lord says you will have peace!' And to those who stubbornly follow their own evil desires, they say, 'No harm will come your way!' 'But can you name even one of these prophets who knows the Lord well enough to hear what He is saying? Has even one of them cared enough to listen?'" Jeremiah 23:16-18
Sometimes it's not easy to know where God is leading. We want to follow His way, but we are not always sure what it is. Seek advice and guidance from those who know and trust God, whose fruit confirms they follow His will.
"Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with scoffers." Psalm 1:1
Red Ken's special committees were of course Islamic clerics themselves, so is it any surprise they found "Qaradawi's ideology is utterly remote from extremism." More like Red Ken's ideology is far removed from reality.
What's with Red Ken, the quintessential marxist and his use of the 'Royal We'. Seems to me to be developing aspirations beyond his professed beliefs. What was it the Roman author Sallust said..."Ambition has driven many men to be false, to have one thought locked in the breast, and another ready upon the tongue."
I belive that this type of talk is very dangerous. The "cells" that everyone worries is living in their country didn't arrive from another country, they are home made. It might take years, but if this kind of stuff goes on long enough, they will convince a few impressionable people to act out...

Unsure as to what avenue of "MEANS" to educate the people of thought on the direction of MOSLEMS. Just looking for answers. The exposure that the group commands - should be balanced by the truth of the vile actions of the MOSLEMS. Just confused that so many become complacent on the world actions of the MOSLEMS and elect not to be involved. Thank you
Posted by: Hoberry,....thanks for joining in; your wisdom of complacency is quite right and the lack thereof to action on behalf of free people,most dont want to be bothered by it and trust their government will handle this quite nicely but whoa and behold when people who have been confused on these issues for a while now and see no resolution, they research on their own trying to see what the holdup is, but in their quest for knowledge it becomes transparent that muslims and the land of islam continue to deny the rights to existence of others,and then you wonder why does'nt anybody stop this nonsense.....And then someone responds to you Welcome Aboard Mate; On this ship we practice truth in liberty whilst trying to discern from the day to day events when this will stop.
I could imagine Mayor Livingston playing the part of the mayor of emerald city in that famous scene from the Wizard of Oz.
"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!"
Red Ken is being consistent, after all, during the cold war any acts of Communist atrocities or aggression and the inherent contradiction and fascism of Marxism was always quickly refuted by dedicated fellow travelers! He should be targeted as a threat to democracy and his country. I still remember when the pig barred the Miss World people from London cause he blamed them for the Muslim atrocities in Nigeria. I bet he would give the keys to the city to the Islamic thugs who started the murder spree on the grounds that they couldn't control themselves because they were provoked!
Mary Martin where are you? We need to wash that Redken right out of our hair.
Red Ken is golden. We're working out details for leaflets to pass out to our fellow community members on topics concerning Islam, and Red Ken is a great piece of work to do a job on.
Consider the fun one could have pulling out Red chestnuts and putting them to the fire of publicity in the form of leaflets distributed around London. It could be a great opportunity to gather up some new readers here by making a leaflet that shows the gist of what we read here with Red Ken as the focus of dhimmitude.
If you're interested, join us at our blog at http://co-jet.org. Jihadwatch readers made the site, and it's there for all of us to use.
A leaflet on Red Ken. I like it.
Well Tony Blair sets the leadership tone in England, and Tony has rolled over completely for the Muslims, even expanding the Hate Crime Law to protect Muslim sensitivies (just mention that it was a Muslim or Paki that raped a girl, or just mention Honor Killings, which are de jure in England and it is 7 to 10 years in jail).
And on this side of the ocean our own President rolls over for the Muslims (you see it is "terrorists" that we are war against), forbid that the Saudis, the chief financiers of Islamism and Terrorism could have their hands in the pot, especially when they are family friends and business partners with the Bush, hold 7% of our national debt, and provide lucrative defense contracts for our defense industry.
Money talks, and it is our money, laundered through Muslim oil wells, that is buying our politicians and killing us slowly.
Mayor Livingston and Tony Blair are bought and paid for, by money and votes, and there is a suspicion of blackmail as well, especially as regards Blair and sex.

What does that say about the intelligence level of the local adult population?

I think there is no doubt, from his behaviour more than from his actual words, that Livingstone is a pathological anti-Semite. To mention that something has a "Zionist" connection is, for him, to condemn it out of hand and beyond repeal. He has however achieved a miracle: he has got me to register for the Electoral lists (as an EU citizen, I am entitled to vote in local elections, but both main parties disgust me far too much to bother) just to support whoever is likeliest to chuck the bastard out. Two terms as Mayor are enough. "You have been here too long for any good you may have done, and there is no health in you. Depart, I say, and let us be done with you. In the name of God, go!"
Paolo:
How likely is he to be voted out of office? When are the elections?
Allah be praised that muslims have such an honourable leader like Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi who is ready to embrace martyrdom for the Islamic cause. Unlike the apostate rulers like Fahd, Musharraf and Mubarak who will be eliminated by the Islamic freedom fighters.
TROLL WATCH!
