Chicago synagogue desecrated with Arabic writing, "Death to Israel"

And they're calling it a possible hate crime. "Synagogue possible target of hate crime," from the Chicago Tribune, with thanks to Andrew Bostom:

A synagogue on Chicago's North Side may have been the target of a hate crime after vandals spray-painted derogatory messages on the building early Saturday, police said.

Officers were called to the Ner Tamid Ezra-Habonin Congregation of North Town, at 2754 W. Rosemont Ave., on Saturday evening and found the front door spray-painted with offensive language, Officer John Mirabelli said.

Someone wrote "Free Palestine" on the door in English as well as Arabic writings, said. Izzie Weinzweig, president of the congregation. "Death to Israel" and similar language was spray-painted on signs posted on the side of the building, he said.

I expect to see this in the headlines everywhere, replete with interviews of JADL spokespersons on every opinon programming talk show tonight. A little equivalency, pu-leeze.

Achtung!

Obviously the work of the right wing as there are nothing but peaceful Muslims all throughout the United States only raising hell on airplanes, using terrorism in courts and building mosques raising money for suicide projects.

I am told Muslims would never do this...so this must be someone who took the time of years to learn Arabic and hide their real right wing cause of......

Enough satire. The proof is in the handwriting on the wall, Islam is terrorism.

Has CAIR come out with a statement condeming this and will work with the Muslim community to apprehend these "misunderstanders" of Islam?

When will Chicago public schools drop teaching the Holocaust? It is a subject that higly offends the Muslims.

Toronto is well on its way to becoming a Muslim city. Hundred of thousands of "refugees" pour into Toronto every year from the best of the best Muslim nations-Pakistan, Somalia, etc.

Hate crime?
Depends on your interpretation.:))

hate vandalism, next to come , fire bombings, followed by assassinations...Islam on the march.

THe people in America should schedule a vacation trip to Dearborn Mich.....just to see the "Muslims"

Oh, but you see it said "Death to Israel" not "Death to the Jews." Didn't you know that an anti-Zionist who wants to wipe out Israel isn't necessarily anti-Semitic? So how can the police be sure it's a hate crime?

Or Minnesotastan.

Well I certainly hope the Chicago Muslims all band together to paint and repair the synogogue andpay for any other damage to demonstrate how they dont approve of such an act.

LOL Good one

I am sure that a group of Jews did it. After all, the grand playbook says that Muslims are always the victims..so therefore the clues left were meant to make them look bad, which, they never are, no matter what happens in their name...

Are you all ready for this. On the local news here in Chi Town last night, the anchor managed to keep a straight face as he reported that vandals had painted anti-Israel slogans in English and "a foreign language which police would not yet identify". Then the camera shot zoomed in on what was CLEARLY Arabic.

Somehow I think that if I had spray painted LATIN on the side of mosque, the police would not be hesitant to identify it as a "hate crime" and as Latin the language of the Roman Catholics.

Gotta laugh or I would scream.

I'd give four Cubs tickets to the Little Shaitan if he'd just start kicking ass & taking names instead of all of these conspiracies he uses to control the world.

Stop being so subtle Little Shaitan! Spray painting your own doors is too subtle! Bulldozers in Gaza.... that's how you live up to being the Little Shaitan.

Galils - not graffiti....

If the police cannot identify Arabic, then we are in deeper denial than I have imagined.

You dont have to speak a language to recognize it usually. As far as I know, no language is similar to Arabic.

Elric66, welcome to 1984, where doublespeak is the word of the day.

What happened in Chicago ist just the beginning. The virus has now hit our shores.

Lock-n-load.

Please forgive this off-topic post, Robert. I really do have to leave now (damn it!). But I hope everyone will take just a minute and read this from Debbie's website: "Happy Passover: Holiday Celebrates Freedom of Jewish People from Slavery", located here: http://www.debbieschlussel.com

Keep the faith everyone, Jew and gentile, theist and atheist alike. We shall have victory!

Grrr, that Debbie girl!!

Has the local CAIR chapter shown up to help their fellow Semites clean up the mess? Should I hold my breath?

Elric66 - Persian (Farsi) and I think Afghan (Pashtun) use the Arabic alphabet - a legacy of Arab hegemonistic conquerings in centuries past, caonquests that were done in the name of and with the help of Islam.

Born and raised in Chicago, this story hits me hard. My parents now tell me that there are security cars and police cars outside their small Temple on Friday. Just routine. The Jewish population of the Chicago area is about 250 thousand or so--down a bit from twenty years ago.

And there are fantastic Churches throughout Chicago. One of my favorite structures is a Church right accross the street from the John Hancock Building with a lovely garden. You can sit there, under the trees and forget you are in an urban center.

The past few trips back home have been eye openers. The region around Northwestern(the downtown medical branch), long a 'high-brow' area where Dr. Loyal Davis(nancy's Father)used to operate, is now loaded with Muslims. I was shocked at their growth. You see them on the streets, driving the taxis, at the airports, with their babys.

I fear for out country. It can come apart from within. Will the center hold? The only saving grace here is the Christian growth is occuring in the South, and accross the Mexican border with their strong Catholic family values. However one feels about immigration. I'd rather take the entire population of Mexico than what has happened to France et al.

And dont wait for Barack Hussein Obama to come 'round either. He's out there busy fighting for justice.

I am wondering what ever happeed to the Jewish Defense League. And we all know who murdered their leader, Meir Kahane. It would be good if they would make their presence more felt in the face of what is likely to be a rising tide of anti-semitic violence, vandalism and harrassments.

The moslems react to strength. You blink or flinch they'll kick you in the balls. There is no middle ground.

Remember their strategy. If you don't have the strength to fight now, make peace and live to fight another day.

It says so in the KKKoran. We've all been presented the relavant passages on this and other websites.

Remember also the days when Israel kicked ass and scattered their armies across the sands.. the Arabs throwing their guns in the air and running away at the sight of an Israeli soldier.

Since then the "Invincible Jews of Israel" have shown their enemies mercy and kindness in full violation of their better knowledge that moslems interpret such gestures as weakness.

Unfortunately the situation in europe is even worse. We've seen a steep rise of these sort of despicable actions in Germany and France and the MSM dutifully names right-wing neo-Nazis and skinheads as the perps. Before anyone is apprehended. When the identity of the perps turns out to be of the moslem variety which is 99% of the time, the story dies down rather quickly and the shouting in the Op-Eds turns to other "wrongs" committed by the Host country upon our dear and can-do-no-wrong "guests".

Needless to say the courts are quite lenient and understanding. Cultural differences, you know? Feh! Pfui!

Remember the "angry lone middle-aged white male" Beltway sniper in DC story? Turned out that was two moslems. How inconvenient.

When the EU did a study on violence against Jews and vandalism against Jewish institutions they did so with the very best intentions of unearthing the terrible "danger for the extreme Right". When the result didn't fit their political needs the study was summarily scrapped.

If my memory serves me correctly the study was leaked by someone on the inside or this would never even have become known to the public.

The few sources who carry such information is Brusselsjournal.com and politicallyincorrect.de.

Then there is Nebeldeutsch.de which coveres newspeak and turnspeak by the moslems and the MSM. And there is Dhimmideutsch.de which is kind of like Dhimmiwatch.com but not quite as well-traveled.

France has a couple of web blogs on the subject of islamification as well, but my French isn't what it used to be and it's hard to pore through the small type that is often found on these sites.

The JW/DW format should be commended for being easy on the eyes and for allowing unhampered resizxing of the text.

It's all about communicatiinbg effectively, which is what Robert and Hugh are so very well-versed at.

Biorabbi - no f!@#$% way Islamic agenda will win out in the United States. If we can keep educating more people on how sharia law is the exact opposite of principles found in the US Constitution people will stop for a second. If you can get them to see that everything they like is at risk
( booze,
gambling,
monetary system based on interest,
women in bikinis,
ham sandwiches,
American Idol,
rock n roll,
pet dogs,
toilet paper,
and so on)

then they will understand. Currently we're not there, but the True Believers are helping with every act of terror or political coercion. People are fucking armed to the teeth too... more than 3%

I actually pity the poor Mo-Foes if they get enough ambition to get serious about it on American Real Estate. The fuckers don't stand a chance.
Don't kid yourself. The part that I'm afraid of is that we will actually come to that point some time in the next 5 years. Maybe not in my town, but in towns like it...

As an aside, hundreds of Chicago Jews(maybe a thousand) cancelled their subscriptions to the Tribune some years ago because of blatent anti-Israel pieces. Can I name names here? I won't, but there were a few grade-A, Fisk, dhimmis on the Tribune. Long live the Sun Times.

Sorry for the double post. I hit the wrong buttons here.

That's easy. And I agree we have to overcome the common misconception of islam as a religion.

Here's proof that it is a cult.

Of all the Major known religions like Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism and Christianity there is none that punishes apostasy by death.

The basis of all true religions is love and moral conduct. Moral conduct against all members of the Human Race and not just those within th group.

Martin Luther King, for example, quoted the Bible rather effectively to basically prove the Un-Christian behavior of the Segregated South.

Fat chance using the KKKoran to get them to stop slavery in the Sudan. Or in Sowdiarabia.

Killing those who leave is the hallmark of a gang or a cult. Ask the Jonestownsies and the Mafia. The Yakuza or the Crips. The Manson Gang or the Bloods. Feel free to add to the list.

I think I've made my point.

So if it quacks like duck it's a dog. If it squeals like a pig - it's islam!

A_Plague_on_Both_Houses


I wish you were right in your predictions but I am fraid it will take something more dramatic than a bunch more MoFoes settling into America.

The country is so large and people slowly will move elsewhere when MoFoes move in. The MoFoes will get control of an increasing number of cities.

Think Minneapolis, Hamtrack and Dearborn, Mich.

They are doing the same thing in Europe.

The MSM keeps selling us the ROP song and if anyone dares oppose moslems by force I guarantee you - they will be made and example of!

In Germany there was a recent case where an Ethiopian who was drunk [2.0] told two Germans to "get out of my way, German pigs" andkicked at them. So they beat the crap out of the guy. Completely normal IMHO. Would happen anywhere else where people don't take Sh•t.

The guy survived and developed a "coma" once he was in court to testify against the "German pigs".

The Germans were flown into court by helicopter, blindfolded and shackled like terrorists. There was a media circus of untold proprtions. The talk shows were competing to get the Ethiopian on to talk about his ordeal.

Turns out the reason the Ethiopian's memory began to fail him was corroborating evidence and testimony by eye witnesses supporting the version of the two Germans.

The story disappeared from the media in NO TIME at all! Gautanamo shmantanmo! They fly Germans who defend themselves using ONLY THEIR FISTS in helicopter blindoflded and shackled from Berlin to the Highest Court in Karlsruhe. The Karksruhe Court was initially formed for the handling of RAF terrorism cases. So you get the idea.

Contrast that with two Turks beating a 47yo father senseless in front of his small kids during Karneval Celebrations. The judge on this case gave them probation since the victim "was not seriously hurt". All while the guy was still in the hospital recovering from his coma. The judge said the injuries were "not serious and lifethreatening".

My guess is the same thing would happen here.

The only way to change things IMHO is like Elric pointed out to spread the knowledge on islam. Give everyone the 411.

One way to do that is to get out in the streets and have peaceful demonstrations. And buld coalitions. The more of us stand up and are counted the less the POLOticians can keep counting on our votes!

The need our votes to legitimize their illicit dealings which is IMHO the reason most of them go into politics in the firts place.

And which is why we are now in this huge mess we are in.

The moslems are expert bribers and blackmailers. And they've found a great number of willing and eager collaborators in our body politic.

The MSM on the other hand are really that dumb naive and misguided.

Allahfanculo - I agree with you - get the 411 out there. It's working.


If it comes down to SHTF ( and I doubt it will with organized jihadi groups ) in the US... the organized jihadi groups are dead meat. No way is that going to happen.

I've been trying to spread the word and it is having an effect in my immediate circle of people. That's what I did in 2006... now I'm moving on to communicating with members of the Political, religious, media and social circles and every time someone does something similiar it's going to add up.

Eventually the True Believers will overplay their hand in the US and that will be the end of any ideas of Reciprocity and Due Diligence. In the meantime I'm doing what I can to get the foundation laid. It's inevitable that some incident will occur in the US once again.

"Possible?" not even "Probable?"

Well, it may have been just some kids having harmless fun. Like writing, "Kill the Jews!" on a synagogue might or might not be a "hate crime."

Wondering whether the band of Middle-Eastern-looking men, praying whilst bowed down towards the East, before getting on the plane with you, and giving voice to that wonderment, may well land you in court, getting sued, and being branded as a "racist," and possible having committed a hate crime," a "crime of tongue" (as opposed to a "crime of pen," when you write something not flattering about Moslems, their progenitator, of their ideology known as Islam).

biorabbi, this is a common way that the muslims infiltrate and then the crimes/violence starts. And in many areas, eg: Lebanon, you have the media and apologists disguising it all.

Why are you not working on your own community of jews to stop being islamic apologists? there are a majority in the TV, radio and probably news, media that are jewish. Start getting them informed - I would assume you could start doing it from a Jewish angle. Instead we hear from these groups - muslim appeasement types of things on TV and in the news. It is disgusting, while their own people are the target of attacks. All we hear about is their moaning and groaning over the holocaust while they have a more current problem - islam.

Oh, and this is why I do not believe in 'moderates' anymore. yes, we have those who help us - but it is for money - and you better believe they would turn on us in a 'heart beat' just because their koran tells them to do so. Why else would one of our 'friends' be so intent on supporting the building of wahabbi mosques in the USA (over 1500) and supporting CAIR?!

"I fear for out country. It can come apart from within."

Only if PC continues its mainstream dominance. America, and the West in general, could easily resist the insinuation, infiltration and inundation of Islam, were it not for PC.

PC is the problem; not Islam.

Arabic Writing? That rules out Anglo Neo-Nazi wannabes. The ones I've seen aren't even intelligent enough to translate into pig-latin.

It's a bit off topic, but I read in jpost.com that Nancy Pelosi wants to establish diplomatic relations with Syria in the hope of changing their behavior.
Haven't we had enough of vain politicians with naive fantasies? First we've had the quest for a unified, democratic Iraq, and now we have behavioral therapy for Islamo-fascists. What's next, summer camp for deprived jihadis? How about bombs for barbarians.

It's a bit off topic, but I read in jpost.com that Nancy Pelosi wants to establish diplomatic relations with Syria in the hope of changing their behavior.

well l hope syrians hit her jet when she flys home the cow! pelosi should be trialed for treason. Lincoln sent some packing and put some in jail during the Civil War, now he was a true Republican!

I'd suggest everyone learn how to write the name "Allah", very small, in Arabic script.

With a pin.

In lead.

(Never know when it might come in handy.)

This site is the ultimate non_PC venue. And thank God for that. But on that note, I would like to echo R_not's post to biorabbi because he/she is pointing to something which cannot be ignored - which is the prominent role of American Jews in enabling the Islamic invasion. Don't Jews figure centrally in the ACLU, for example? It is certainly my understanding that Jews in the US may have had a certain motivation in promoting open borders from an historical perspective so as to theoretically diminish their own exposure to danger as a minority and while I can understand that motivation, it's obviously not working out too well as we now turn the corner on the 21st century in America. Rather, it may well come back to bite them in the ass. Everyone knows that Jews have the highest IQ on the planet (just ahead of the Asians). I am seriously counting on them to show it NOW, when the survival of the rest of western mankind really and truly depends on their ability to demonstrate that intelligence, which means demonstrating FLEXIBILITY in their intelligence, in order to rise above yesterday's reality and ADAPT intellectually to a changing reality. Because the ability to adapt and change and see what is NOW, is certainly a central criterion of what we mean by intelligence.

Hey Caroline, as per your comment about Jewish intelligence, let me remind you that Noam Chomsky, Ilan Papp and Norman Finkelstein are examples of prominent Jewish morons.
Yes, a lot of Jews want open borders because of the memory of exclusion when a safe haven was needed, but they also need to understand that safe havens can become unsafe if left unguarded.

Are we assuming the doers of this act were Muslim? If I were a Jew or a christian fundamentalist like you, I would suspect many others too. Its not only muslims who hate the Jews MOST of humanity HATE the Jews....For God's sake, they (the jews) were even cursed by the tongues of Dawood and Isa (peace be upon them) for their hard-headedness...check surat Maidah

Biorabbi,

Having grown up in "Chicago's playland" in Wisconsin, but having lived most of my adult life in NYC, I was wondering if Chicago was experiencing a growth in its Muslim population.

Last fall, while back for a visit & waiting in line to go on a boat trip around Lake Geneva, I was shocked at the number of women waiting in line who were almost completely covered (not burkhas, but close; probably abayas).

I knew, then, the answer to my question.


This site is utterly biased and should be ashamed of itself. I have not seen the desecration of a Mosques with a pig's head reported yet!

Of course this site is biased, because many of us realize that Islam preaches subjugation or war against non-Muslims. We have a bias against our self-destruction.

"death to israel"? how un-original.

Well the Chicago chapter of CAIR finally issued a statement about the desecration of the synagogue

""This reprehensible attack on a house of worship should be condemned by Americans of all faiths," said CAIR-Chicago Executive Director Ahmed Rehab. Rehab called the synagogue's president to express the Muslim community's sympathy and support."

note that they say nothing about Muslims condemning the attack but rather call upon all Americans to condemn the attack. simply disengenous to say the least

Abdullah: "Its not only muslims who hate the Jews MOST of humanity HATE the Jews....For God's sake, they (the jews) were even cursed by the tongues of Dawood and Isa (peace be upon them) for their hard-headedness...check surat Maidah"

Abdullah - just out of curiosity, do you ever look directly into the mirror - into the reflection of your own eyes - and see the sheer hatred and evil staring back?

Ah, the lake, the Art Institute, da bears, the deep-deep pizza with beer on a windy Saturday night.

But there is a dark side to our lovely city. Yes. Hamas and company have been growing throughout Chicago. Case in point: The Bridgview Mosque which is Hamas country as Mr. Emerson described it.

I hope we are listening, and I hope the listeners are honest and loyal... but I wonder. We have many Arabic speakers who are Sephardic Jews or Arab Christians. They should be used, their talents and loyalties harnessed.

Come, come, Caroline. I've read your posts; you're too smart for the above post. I've met many dumb Jews and many smart Jews. We bleed like everybody else. Because one is Jewish or Christian or whatever does not make one immune from being stupid. Jews are loyal Americans. I write this with respect to you Caroline, and I do respect your views. This IQ stuff is crap. Are Sephardic Jews not quite up to snuff? Is their a drop in kids of mixed marriages? This is rubbish.

I don't agree with most of the shades of scum the ACLU defends: Nazis, pedophiles, Islamists, but contrast the US with Saudi Arabia. I doubt there is a branch of the ACLU over there... no worries of civil rights or protections of any kind over there. Our constitutional protections are a weakness, but, in the end, they are what differentiates us, what sustains us, what marks us sharply from the house of Islam. Thank god.

One can look at the whole 'war on terror' with a bit of shock and awe. From the Orwellian words that obscure what happened on 911 and continue to cloud our vision.

Jews are hammered for being too Jewish, too 'Pro-Israel', too liberal, too neoconservative. But it obscures what our common foe is, and how she operates in the still of the night.

Are we assuming the doers of this act were Muslim?

So then, since the words "liberate Palistine" was written in arabic on the doors, which just happens to be the liturgical language of the quaran, then obviously the self-identifying clue was that this act was done by radical Buddists or Hindus.

What other logical choice could there be?

This is a real brain teaser for even the wisest of sages.

"This site is utterly biased and should be ashamed of itself. I have not seen the desecration of a Mosques with a pig's head reported yet!"

thats 'cos jews, atheists and christians are more civilised than your so called "religion of peace" fanatics.

anyway, suprised you are allowed to type the word "pig", do you have to clean you keyboard after writing the word "pig"? how about cleaning your mind, i mean if you say the word pig, then surely an image of a pig comes into your head and surely that pig does some type of mental damage?

just a thought.


lool Some of you kuffar have a wicked sense of humour. Now why would we wanna lose that huh? After all you have given us hollywood (the funniest place on earth)???

By the way we are allowed to say pig and type pig. We can even pat a pig on the head but we are not allowed to as in the words of Allah;

3. Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah. that which hath been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly) eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any is forced by hunger, with no inclination to transgression, Allah is indeed Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

4. They ask thee what is lawful to them (as food). Say: lawful unto you are (all) things good and pure: and what ye have taught your trained hunting animals (to catch) in the manner directed to you by Allah. eat what they catch for you, but pronounce the name of Allah over it: and fear Allah. for Allah is swift in taking account.

Chapter of the table verse 3 and 4

"We can even pat a pig on the head"

why does that statement appear so sinister?

biorabbi - I'm surprised you take such offense at my post. I am merely a neutral observer. How do you explain the really gross disproportion of Jewish intellectuals, as indicated by Nobel prizes in science etc, if it doesn't indicate something superior about Jewish IQ? The fact that so may intelligent Jews such as Chomsky exist doesn't negate that fact. Such folks could merely be brilliant sophists.

Maybe you imagine that my post implies that Jews are not "loyal" Americans. That would be a very wrong inference. To me, Jews are indistinguishable from what I think of as America. When it comes to modern liberalism, certainly Catholics have played a major role in that respect (some of the biggest open-borders advocates out there) and my own background is Catholic. In fact, my father was an immigrant Catholic who participated in Vatican II. He died many years ago but all the time I think about what he did and how what he did quite possibly contributed to the modern Catholic liberalism that may have contributed to the current open-borders ethos in America. After all, it is Ted Kennedy, a Catholic, who may be most closely associated with our current, suicidal immigration policy.

Abdullah - you didn't answer my question:

Do you ever look directly into the mirror - into the reflection of your own eyes - and see the sheer hatred and evil staring back?

And if not - maybe you're not looking closely enough. Try again. Your prophet was a mass murderer. He reveled in people being tortured. When you look in the mirror, see that. See the 800 men of the Quarayzah tribe getting their heads sawed off - one by one. Because that's the evil that's staring back at you in the mirror. That's what you worship. That's who you are.

This site is utterly biased and should be ashamed of itself. I have not seen the desecration of a Mosques with a pig's head reported yet!\

oh Abdullah, you see this site shows truth, your black death cult called islam is being unvieled as we speak. the more muslims kill in the name of their child rapist pretend phrophet the closer islam comes to be deemed a terrorist organization to be shunned and chased out ouf of a civilized world. oh Abdullah become human and leave islam while you can.

Look at Vatican II. Look at the tremendous diversity within Christianity. I couldn't even list all the streams. There is a Japanese strain of Catholicism that intrigued me greatly. The Japanese expelled the priests but could not snuff it out. Why is that? The answer lays in the inertia and diversity and capacity for change. There is no such diversity or questioning within Islam. This is both a strength and a weakness, robotic as only a closed system can be. There is a great Frank Lloyd Right Church, Unitarian I think, in Oak Park. It is tremendous to view. I meant no slur to you, Caroline, and perhaps I assumed too much; I'm sorry.

Stone Hinged
Thanks for jogging the memory.

Well it seems some "people" in American have decided to give 2 synagogues a "nice" Passover Present.
I think this is worth remembering.Usual M.O.

Let us not forget the arabs attacked in 1973 on Yom Kippur: the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
Imagine the fuss if muslims were attacked during ramadan?

Abdullah says
"Some of you kuffar have a wicked sense of humour.."

So we are Kuffar are we? (Like we didn't know).Does anyone else think this is a somewhat racist remark? It sure gives away exactly where Abdullah is coming from.

"Some of you kuffar have a wicked sense of humour. '


...That is right!...in fact, we can laugh at racist, whitey hating wannabbee terrorists such as yourself, you are so transparent....

..you are too funny yourself.....

Abdullah, there was a pig head-in-the-mosque incident that was reported quite some time ago. CAIR squealed to the FBI and the FBI investigated. I do not know what the result of the investigation was, and I don't care.

This site is utterly biased and should be ashamed of itself. I have not seen the desecration of a Mosques with a pig's head reported yet!

Abdullah,
Are you making a suggestion? or giving instructions on how to really get to Islamics?
Where is that tractor-trailer loaded with 75 thousand pounds of sow bellies when you need it (to tip over and spill while making a wrong turn in a parking lot)?

Palayo, the incident was probably like all the other CAIR reports, fabricated. Somewhere, I saw the figures about how many of those the FBI has investigated and it was quite large.

Food for thought!!!

Have you ever thought about how the Muslims have now circled the USA population centers. They are everywhere. That was not so 8 years ago. Where did they come from?? Does this mean the Jihad is ready to begin??? Is there a conspiracy to send them out to encompass the globe??

In England, the Muslim population centers have now formed a crescent in the country. Jihad will be coming to them soon.

If you don't profess Allah as your God in the near future you will be beheaded. It is not just the Jews that they hate but all peoples who do not bow down to their God. Why do I say so? The B I B L E tells me so!!

This talk about I.Q.? Darling, absolutely MOST appropriate.
You speak of a common foe, operating in "the still of the night" Is this foe , not in fact, your personal construct? And, will frankly be your undoing? Jewish liberal thought is suicide.
What the hell are you guys thinking???

Jews may be hammered for being "too Jewish" (I'm not sure what that means...an excessive amount of lox?) "too Israel" I personally don't know a single Jew whos is "too Israel" Actually, it appears to be a badge of intellectual courage to support the PALESTINIANS over the Israelis!!!
And as for the aforementioned "too neoconservative"; Who the HELL is biorabbi talking about? Please, stop this.

I'm not Jewish, but I would be willing to fight to the death for the state of Israel. There are certain universal truths in this world, and we would inflict a mortal wound on all we hold dear and believe in to do otherwise.
