Miserable, eh? That's why Western-born Muslims are leaving home and flocking to Islamic countries in droves, arriving by plane, train, and boat to find a better life and take advantage of generous social welfare systems -- no, wait...
The "revolting geek" described himself as such some years ago, and the "miserable suburbs" quote comes from the Fox affiliate in Detroit linked from this story. "Al Qaeda Video Asks Detroit-Area Muslims to Act," from Fox News, October 25:
An Al Qaeda call-to-arms video released in Detroit by a U.S. intelligence agency hints that terror attacks may be coming to the U.S. and parts of Europe, MyFoxDetroit reports.
Adam Gadahn, Al Qaeda's American-born spokesman, posted a 40-minute video on terrorist Web sites on Sunday, looking to attract local Muslims in sparking terrorism attacks.
Gadahn urged Muslims living "in the miserable suburbs of Paris, London and Detroit" to stage religiously motivated attacks on targets in Europe and the United States.
"It is the duty of everyone who is sincere in his desire to defend Islam and Muslims today, to take the initiative to perform the individual obligation of jihad," Gadahn said in Arabic in the video.
Detroit is the only U.S. city mentioned by Gadahn, who, in the video, also gives praise to the suspect involved in the attempted airplane bombing at Detroit Metro Airport.
Abdulmutallab, the underwear jihadist.
The video, which asks Al Qaeda followers to individually stage attacks, has been condemned by Muslim leaders in the Detroit area, including Imad Hamad, the Regional Director of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee.
"It makes us stronger, it makes us more united," Hamad said in the video, adding that "we all have a responsibility to be vigilant and not take anything for granted when it comes to our safety and security."
"It's a war between the evil and the good. I think we are on the good side, so far I think we are winning our fight against terrorism."...
But to take issue with "terrorism" alone is still to sidestep jihad as the heart of the matter, as it would also be to hide behind the notion of "defensive jihad," which amounts to jihad waiting for an excuse.
"It's a war between the evil and the good. I think we are on the good side, so far I think we are winning our fight against terrorism."...
It's nice that you are on the side of good...I'm sure that Allah appreciates that...But what are you actually doing to win your fight against terrorism? That must be pretty tricky since Allah identifies himself as a terrorist in Quran 8:12...
'Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instil terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them."
It's really hard to convince Believers who have 'firmness', not to terrorize when Allah does it, and advocates it...
Sort of off-topic, but wasn't Gadhan raised on a goat farm? I wonder if he is one of those who inspired the late Theo van Gogh to come up with a certain spot-on expression to refer to mahoundians in general.
I would give my right arm to be the one who loads, aims and fires the bullet that stops the beating of the evil heart of this traitorous bastard.
Imad Haamd "It's a war between the evil and the good. I think we are on the good side, so far I think we are winning our fight against terrorism."...
His deception here is that the "terrorism" is in his mind the US actions against the Islamists, not the Islamist jihadi actions. That's what makes it easy for him to publicly denounce terrorism, while being careful not to condemn individuals or Hamas, Hesbollah etc. His fellow Islamists all understand the subtext. It's the same trick as condemning attacks on innocents whilst not explaining that "innocents" is not meant to include non-muslims.
... as it would also be to hide behind the notion of "defensive jihad," which amounts to jihad waiting for an excuse.
Hell, these people don't even bother waiting.
Either they don't have the patience or they're just too darn enthusiastic about advancing the Cause.
The Muslims in the suburbs of London are already waging jihad on a massive scale. They are flooding their towns with heroin with the deliberate objective of waging narcojihad against the hated kuffars: http://crombouke.blogspot.com/2010/01/narcojihad-chemical-jihad-and-muslim.html
"...condemned by Muslim leaders in the Detroit area, including Imad Hamad, the Regional Director of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee."
Imad Hamad is wasting his breath. We're onto guys like him and Rehab and Hooper who, from time to time, are called on to "issue statements" designed to calm increasingly restive infidels when one of their co-religionists embarrasses them and we have the temerity to complain. We'd be more impressed if they'd publicly call for Gadahn's execution, but of course they will never do that.
The entire Quran, Hadith and Sunna should be honestly, thoroughly and accurately translated into English and/or other Western languages so that the Westerners can read for themselves what's in them and educate themselves in the process. Let's not expect Muslim translators/deceivers to do this for us. Non-Muslim translators should produce these honest, thorough, and accurate translations.
How can the Quran, Hadith, and Sunna be effectively criticized by the Western people (leaders, politicians, and civilians alike) if accurate and honest translations of them are not available in English and other Western languages? This is truly part of the battle or war (figuratively speaking - politically, culturally, and academically) against Islam. Yes, we should be at war (figuratively speaking - politically, culturally, and academically) against Islam because Islam has already declared war (both literally and figuratively) against us all non-Muslims.
Only accurate translations of the Quran, Hadith, and Sunna can possibly persuade Western leaders, politicians, and people in general about all the evil and demonic elements of Islam - excepting Allah/God ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allah ) who is not responsible for all the evils that are committed by demonic Muslims in His name, despite the texts of the Quran, Hadith, and Sunna.
The best evidence against the fraudulent and demonic elements of Islam are the accurate translations of the Quran, Hadith, and Sunna into English and other Western languages such as Spanish, French, German, etc...
But I would say, in criticizing Islam, "don't throw away the baby with the bathwater." Allah/God ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allah ) is not responsible for all the murders, rape, deceit that are committed by Muslim fanatics/liars/thugs/murderers/rapists in His name just because of the very texts in the Quran, Hadith, and Sunna. If we don't believe that Muhammad is the messenger of God/Allah ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allah ), why should we believe all the lies and evil commandments that he attributed to Allah/God as contained in the Quran, Hadith, and Sunna?
And I would say forget the moon-god argument about Allah/God, as it is completely irrelevant to Islam. In my opinion, when one insists that Allah/God is a moon-god, that one loses all credibility in the eyes of Muslims (particularly those who are potential converts from Islam) and in the eyes of those who are presently sympathetic to Islam/Muslims out of sheer ignorance, willful or not.
Every time an immigrant to this country commits or is caught planning an act of terrorism they should be locked up for life. The entire immediate family of said terrorist should all be deported to the hell hole they came from. If there are no immediate family then the next 500 applicants from that country that are awaiting refugee status should be struck from the list and not allowed into this country.
How do you think this would affect all the sympathisers in the Muslim community? I could see a million muslim march being organized against terror real soon afte this law is in place. Simple solution.
Converting to islam is the only way this loser was guaranteed a female, a wife (slave), no one else would have him. I'll just bet it makes him feel so virile when he beats her/ them.
Looks like another restless "Asian youth" has gone bad in DC.
This one, 34 year old "man" from Pakistan, casing the Metro stations with intent to get a "ticket to ride on", all the way to 72 breathless-raisins-in-waiting for this "man".

It's almost getting to be funny! - LOL - ....just don't say it! .. or the boogy man...shhh
This vile traitor must have some strong connections in Detroit, where a teeming hive of muslim supremacists plot America's demise and islam's victory. If the FBI has time, they should contact the local CAIR office for permission to get a few wiretaps and do some mosque surveillance, giving them plenty of advance notice so they can warn the suspects.
If the FBI can give 'prominent' muslims with known ties to terrorists tours of its most sophisticated anti-terrorism facility and the DHS can hire 'devout' muslims to fill sensitive, high-ranking positions, CAIR should certainly be consulted and advised of all investigations involving muslims. It is pure luck that we have not had another catastrophic terrorist attack and I have a feeling our luck will not last much longer. When the next one comes, it will be very interesting to see how the incompetent morons running the Justice Department, Homeland Security, the State Department, and Obama's muslim outreach fiasco will react. Will they see that appeasement never works, or will they say they didn't do enough? The latter, I'm sure.
@ Living Stone
You write:- 'The entire Quran, Hadith and Sunna should be honestly, thoroughly and accurately translated into English and/or other Western languages so that the Westerners can read for themselves.......'
But they have been! The tragedy we are living through is that the movers and shakers in the world of politics and the media refuse to accept what these texts say at face value.
Worse still, many politicians and journalists have not read these freely available texts. They have a 'chocolate box' view of Islam: khol-eyed lovelies reclining on cushions in hareems while through a latticed window in the background an Arab mathematician astride a camel gazes at the stars to plot his way through the trackless desert.
If politicians and the media accepted that what the Qur'an states means that Islam plans to take over the world and impose Shari'a by force, then we'd be in a better position to defeat Islam.
There are none so blind as those who will not see!
I'd be reckoning both buraq and livingstone to be correct in regards to the essence of respective standpoints. .livingstone with regards to the atomic axis-of-cleavage. .and buraq with the dereliction-of-duty rendered by mindless Western politicians.
"It is the duty of everyone who is sincere in his desire to defend Islam and Muslims today, to take the initiative to perform the individual obligation of jihad," Gadahn said in Arabic in the video.
He's correct insofar as his religion of peace is concerned. He is merely following the teachings of his pedophile leader who considered anyone not following him, as the spokesman and consultant for allah, as an infidel unworthy of keeping his or her head. Speaking of head, I've heard rumors about Bin Laden and camels that cannot be repeated here. It gets lonely on the desert, they say, and all's fair in love and war . . .especially war.
Who gets the blame when the big one goes off?
If it's so miserable, they are free to return to whatever sand country they crawled out of.
