Al-Qaeda top dog urges jihad over Muhammad film

And none of the voices that constantly claim that non-Muslims misunderstand the concept of jihad are rushing to disabuse al-Zawahiri of his misunderstanding. How odd!

"Al-Qaida leader urges holy war over Prophet film," from AP, October 13:

CAIRO — The leader of Al-Qaida has urged Muslims to wage holy war against the United States and Israel over a film that insulted Islam's Prophet Muhammad.

Ayman al-Zawahri praised as "honest and zealous" demonstrators who breached the U.S Embassy in Cairo and attackers who stormed the U.S. "embassy" in Benghazi in violence linked to the film....

In an audio message released by al-Qaida's media arm As-Sahab and posted on militant websites early Saturday, al-Zawahri claimed Washington allowed the film's production under the pretext of freedom of expression, "but this freedom did not prevent them from torturing Muslim prisoners."

All JihadWatchers must encourage their loved ones to read the Koran and the History of Mo (Sira). The rational mind is repulsed by the idea of venerating such a monster and following such an evil creed.

Email links to online Korans to the movers and shakers in your neck of the woods. Ask them if they agree with the dualism of Islam. Ask them how hard a wife can be beaten and still be legal under the state's current laws. Should those laws be modified to allow Muslim barrows to beat their wives?

Demand an answer from them.

Un-elect ANYONE who aids or abets Islam.

Israel had nothing to do with this film...Ayman has been bumping his head on a regular basis, enlarging the hole in it...Why does he need lame excuses to war with Israel when everyone knows that's what Allah wants? Ayman knows what Allah wants, after all, he is in direct contact with Allah 5 times a day...and we all know Allah hates Jews with a passion...He even turned some of them into apes and pigs so great was his rage...And what was Allah raging about? Why they rejected his message and his messenger...Christians did that too, Q 5:14, which is why they are punished to this day...All kuffar, if not converted or killed must suffer, it's the will of Allah...and Ayman...

If the majority of Muslims in the World are peaceful then why are their voices completely silent when fatwas or holy wars are issued against non Muslims?

The only way Islam can ever come away from its own internal and external violence is a total reformation.

Of course Mohamed and his followers made sure that would never happen by saying the written words are through the Angel Gabriel from Allah and are considered pure for all time and thus can never be abrogated. And of course to do so invites the charge of blasphemy.

Tragically Islamic teachings remain in the archaic world of the 6th century.

Jihad with all it's violence and murderous actions all over a short film the many Muslims happen to dislike. That just proves that evil always needs to have an excuse.

zawahri,as bad as bin laden.no brains,no heart,no soul.stuck in a time and place of his own choosing.forever backwards in thinking,words and deeds.just another failed individual thinking that his ideology is the be-all of existence.love and enlightenment will never be in his vocabulary.only chaos,violence and blood.

"but this freedom did not prevent them from torturing Muslim prisoners." ?!?!

Muslims, don't lecture anyone about torturing prisoners. With a prophet like yours, you'd better keep your heads down.

Can we think like the Hondurans?

Latin America has experienced too many thug presidents who want to stay in power for life. So the Hondurans changed their constitution to allow their president to serve at most one term, and more importantly to make it a crime for a serving president to seek to change this limit to enable them to run for another term. The punishment, provided for in the constitution, is immediate expulsion of the president. Other people can seek the change, it is just that the sitting president cannot.

The notion of free speech embodied in the US First Amendment also makes the distinction between who is the speaker, between the government and the people. It acts as a restriction on the power of government to limit the speech of the people. It reflects the wisdom that government cannot be trusted, on balance, because the government will invariably abuse that power no matter how well intentioned might be the advocates of arming government with the power of censorship.

Back to the Honduran example. Should it be a crime for any public official to use their position to seek to invalidate the First Amendment? The punishment for elected executive branch officials could be immediate expulsion from office, just like Manuel Zelaya. The mere babbling of a sitting president in opposition to the First Amendment is itself unsettling enough that, on balance, it might be safer for the preservation of individual liberty that the offender be expelled immediately. "Respect" for the First Amendment before "respect" for Islamic thuggery.

When "government" in OIC member countries is merged with Islam and Sharia and all manner of ranting insane imams then individual freedom can be created or preserved only by way of vigorous and robust criticism of all the institutions of government, without exception.

It is blasphemy to criticize the right of the people to seek redress of grievances against tyrannical government. Only a tyrant thug could entertain such criticism. Submission to a thug, as a religion, is not freedom. It is an abomination.

(Here is an exercise.) When Obama criticizes Romney for Romney's criticism of Obama's messes in Libya what is to stop Obama from tossing Romney in jail?

Is it a coincidence that Zawahri attributes the attack in Behghazi was sparked by the infamous video - the same as Obama?

Is it a coincidence that Zawahri attributes the attack in Behghazi was sparked by the infamous video - the same as Obama?

Is it a coincidence that they both opened their mouths up about Innocence and that Obama hasn't shut his about it, nor shut Zawahiri's up with a Predator drone?

Can you say, Hellfire missile?

The AP, typical of MSM, is careful not to use the word "jihad", instead helpfully translating it as holy war. They don't want us plebs confusing it with that other jihad, the pink furry internal spiritual kind, especially after we have been exposed to those hateful AFDI ads. The message in the ads would be validated and AFDI vindicated, and that would definitely not do.
