Spencer: The Lessons of Adam Gadahn

In FrontPage today I write about a couple of things Adam taught us:

The first American to be charged with treason since World War II was back in the news Sunday, both for a new videotape he released and for reports of his capture that turned out to be false. In the videotape, al-Qaeda operative Adam Gadahn, an American convert to Islam, praised the Fort Hood jihad murderer and called upon Muslims to carry out jihad attacks in the United States. The reports that Gadahn had been captured caused widespread excitement until the arrestee turned out to be a different American convert to Islam, Abu Yahya Mujahdeen Al-Adam, who like Gadahn is an al-Qaeda leader. The videotape and the arrest of the other American-born Muslim demonstrate yet again the cognitive dissonance that prevails at the highest levels regarding the nature of the jihad threat.

In the videotape, Gadahn called Nidal Hasan, who murdered thirteen people in the name of jihad and Islam at Fort Hood in November 2009, "Brother Nidal" and held him up as "the ideal role-model for every repentant Muslim in the armies of the unbelievers and apostate regimes." And not just military personnel: Gadahn added that "Nidal Hasan is a pioneer, a trailblazer and a role-model who has opened a door, lit a path and shown the way forward for every Muslim who finds himself among the unbelievers."

Gadahn advised his fellow jihad warriors: "You shouldn't make the mistake of thinking that military bases are the only high-value targets in America and the West. On the contrary, there are countless other strategic places, institutions and installations which, by striking, the Muslim can do major damage." He implored jihadis to think out of the box: "As the blessed operations of September 11th showed, a little imagination and planning and a limited budget can turn almost anything into a deadly, effective and convenient weapon."...

"As the blessed operations of September 11th showed, a little imagination and planning and a limited budget can turn almost anything into a deadly, effective and convenient weapon."...

The sad thing is that this is true. Mark Steyn speaks about this in his book 'America Alone'. Muslims can wreak such damage with all of the things mentioned in the quote. You don't need to wait for Islamic nations to develop nuclear weapons to be afraid of them. They're doing so much damage already, even those "peaceful, moderate" ones residing in Western nations who threaten and/or sue and/or kill those infidels who dare criticise Islam. Combined with countless Muslims on welfare who can easily build up a jihadist wealth portfolio to fund terrorist attacks against their host nations, we need to end Muslim immigration. The risk is far too great to take and for those who cry "discrimination!", I don't care. No other group has ever presented a comparable threat. They are far more dangerous than the Russians during the Cold War.

"Nidal Hasan is a pioneer, a trailblazer and a role-model who has opened a door, lit a path and shown the way forward for every Muslim who finds himself among the unbelievers."

Evil is just not a strong enough word to describe Adam Pearlstein. Isn't that his real surname - Pearlstein? So he's Jewish?

Apparently Pearlstein missed the part in the Q where allah curses Jews and turns them into apes and swine.

Someone needs to put this demon down. Forthwith.

Azzam the Ameriki, must be laughing and enjoying all the unearned publicity over his 'capture'...He can laugh now, but he will be crying later...eventually he really will be captured...then watch the tears flow...

Hey Pearlstein - I have two questions:

How come allah paralyzed your "role model?"

How come allah denied your "trailblazer" immediate entry into paradise with the 72 virgins, pearly boys, and rivers of wine?

You don't really believe those obvious lies made-up by your false prophet Warlord, do you?

I hope you get put down soon, Barbarian-Boy, as soon as possible.

Oh, and your family must be so proud of you. Such a decent and productive human being their son turned out to be.

My contempt for and loathing of this piece of human excrement cannot be adequately expressed.

All a Muslim needs to be "radicalized" is a copy of the Qur'an.

"All a Muslim needs to be "radicalized" is a copy of the Qur'an."

Good one. I'm going to remember that. Exactly right.

Somewhere I read that Gadhan was a red-diaper baby. Is there any truth to such a rumor?

If there is, can we marvel how someone for whom the chief constant of his upbringing was that America is somehow a uniquely and specially evil country flies to a new fiercely anti-American ideology when his original god fails?

We have no one to blame but ourselves. We know who the enemy is - anyone who worships the religion of ISLAM. If any innocent non-Muslim is a legitimate target of the jihadi, it only begs to reason that every Muslim should be a legitimate target. The tactics they use work because they are not reciprocated. If Muslims feared non-Muslims more than their feared the jihadi maybe they'd be a little more willing to rein them in within their own communities. They are using "charity" to fund subversive movements to undermine our governments & way of life while we send them foreign aid. WTF! is up with that? It is time to throw political correctness out the window and trade blood for blood. This isn't a law enforcement issue, it is a clash of cultures on a global scale.
