Massachusetts: Misunderstander of Islam to plead guilty in plot to blow up Pentagon with model planes

"Ferdaus is a Muslim-American from Ashland." Have you ever seen anyone identified as a "Christian-American" or a "Jewish-American"? This is in line with the implication of the name of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations, that being a Muslim is a nationality as well as a religion, which in turn relies on the Islamic idea that the Muslims constitute a single umma, which calls for an allegiance beyond nationality. It is no surprise to see the mainstream media picking up Islamic supremacist usage; they've certainly done it before.

"Massachusetts man to plead guilty in plot to blow up Pentagon with model planes," from the Associated Press, July 10 (thanks to Mike Slumber):

BOSTON – A Massachusetts man charged with plotting to fly remote-controlled model planes packed with explosives into the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol plans to plead guilty to two charges.

That's according to court documents filed Tuesday by prosecutors and attorneys for Rezwan Ferdaus.

Ferdaus is a Muslim-American from Ashland. He was arrested in September after federal employees posing as al-Qaida members delivered what he believed was 24 pounds of explosives....

The documents say Ferdaus will plead guilty to attempting to provide material support to terrorists and attempting to damage and destroy federal buildings by means of an explosive. Prosecutors and defense attorneys have agreed to request a 17-year sentence.

Federal officials said the public was never in danger from the explosives.

Of course. None of these jihad plots ever endanger the public. "Federal officials" must have a template on their PC's that includes the line, "The public was never in danger from this plot."

Having worked with the glory-hounds of the FBI I can confirm that the Fan Belt Inspectors will never permit their image to be tarnished, will always snow-job and tap-dance to make sure they look good, at the expense of other law enforcement agencies and officers.

Their organizational hubris does nothing to keep this country safe.

"Fan Belt Inspectors".

Priceless.

Only 17-years of prison dawah for this "Massachusetts man"?

The increasingly lazy and detached Shepard Smith said "Massachusetts Man" so I expected an Irish-Am guy with a Red Sox shirt in the mugshot.

"...that being a Muslim is a nationality as well as a religion, which in turn relies on the Islamic idea that the Muslims constitute a single umma, which calls for an allegiance beyond nationality."

Islam is indeed a nation (even though the "Nation of Islam" is only one small part of it). If I may quote from Wiktionary:

"nation (plural nations)
1. A group of people sharing aspects of language, culture and/or ethnicity.
The Roma are a nation without a country."

The case of Islam is more complicated than Wiktionary's example of the Roma, because while the Roma do not possess a country, Islam has absolute possession of a few countries, partial possession of several, and at least a presence in every country. Islam is a fractious, quarelling nation constantly divided against itself, but it is still a nation. And, most importantly, it is a nation which is at war with us, even though our own governments refuse to believe it.

One of the reasons for Islam's current success has been its ability to deceive so many Westerners into believing that it is not a nation, that it's just a religion, and that its citizens are just ordinary Americans (or Australians, or Danes, or whatever) who just happen to worship in a slightly different way.

You would think that cases such as Nidal Hasan, Anwar Al-Awlaki, Hasan Akbar, Naser Jason Abdo, Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad(the list goes on ad nauseum) would be enough to convince people otherwise, but (so far, at least) that has not been the case.

There can be no solution to the problem of Islam unless Western governments realize this.

The main stream media is even more ignorant than the rest of us. They haven't a clue about Islams ideology, commitment, motivation, or sincerety.

I have written to three main stream media writers. One actually wrote back to me saying that he would ask his Muslim friends if what I said was true.

The kaffirs main problems are ignorance and being afraid of the truth. I'm sorry to say, I have no clue how to break through such thick skulled thinking. Perhaps when they find themselves on their knees 5 times a day they will understand better.

Knowledge is a terrorible thing to waste away. And ignorance is lack of knowledge. This is the reason Islam is gaining power while kaffirs are being ineffective.

Any questions? Don't ask a Muslim for the answer.
