"The meeting, dubbed 'Beating Back Bush and the System' attracted an odd mix of about twenty people of varying ages and backgrounds..."

They got 20 people together for this! Except for the potential for any of the attendees to aid and abet terrorists, we really should be laughing.

More chilling for me, I caught a ride home on the Toronto subway system yesterday. Three young men got on all dressed in extreme Muslim garb (Kulfis, baggy cotton trousers and ankle-length tunics over top, under winter coats) -- one Sudanese looking guy who appeared to be the leader, another black and a white guy. The ringleader had a supply of da'wa fliers in hand and gave one to a hispanic-looking rider.

In "Force of Reason" Fallaci details exactly how this union of the extreme left in Europe has crossed the isles - so to speak - with the Islamists. It was a key factor in bringing about the Arabization of Europe.

Both A.N.S.W.E.R. amd C.A.I.R and their ilk are salivating over the Eurabia example and are keen on applying the same techniques here through laws that hamstring dissent, and of course, through large scale immigration. In Europe, dissent against the Muslim invasion has become nearly impossible due to fear, as Fallaci nails it; e.g., the cartoons. We can see this same fear in the USA, in our press, our media, and particularly our politicians, all of whom are willing out of fear to sell us down the Muslim river - for votes and for oil-money support from the Arab princes. You never hear anything from the Beltway about stopping the Islamization of the USA, and with the present mob you never will.

daveconcerned - thanks for that reference. I wonder if "Lawfare" has penetrated our know-nothing intelligence agencies, or DOD. Or even if this falls under the umbrella of any Beltway agency.

It does not seem to have held back Congress or the Administration in their nearly "unrestricted support" of the Wahabbi invasion and the Hezbollah "businessmen".

Subliterate writing does not help the cause.

"Into the Lion's Den" or "Into the Lions' Den" would work. Without the apostrophe, I stop reading.

Re the Nazi-Soviet alliance of our time-

The answer is eventually going to be deportation of the neo-fascists ( A.N.S.W.E.R.and CAIR-style frauds). With each new day more and more people are wising-up to the connections (JW and others have helped bring this about), see the deception of groups like A.N.S.W.E.R.and CAIR-style groups.

More and more people realize that Islam is religion of intolerance (Hinduphobe, Christaphobe, etc., intolerant) and know that the extreme left are cut from the same cloth. Their alliance is the Nazi-Soviet pact of our time (and a lot of ANSWER and CAIR-style people are Jew haters). They are mentally ill and share common pseudo-religious-intolerant-belief-systems.

"Today, two big mountains lie like a dead weight on the Chinese people. One is imperialism, the other is feudalism. The Chinese Communist Party has long made up its mind to dig them up. We must persevere and work unceasingly, and we, too, will touch God's heart. Our God is none other than the masses of the Chinese people. If they stand up and dig together with us, why can't these two mountains be cleared away?"

The USA is a unique phenomenon. Muslims in the USA must now consciously or unconsciously become enlightened to the fact that other societies, & especially their Muslim countries of origin, do not offer similar opportunities, to become your own person. Denial of individual conscience, & the ability to do as you wish with your life, is a tragedy, since individual freedom is precious & unique. Muslims are required; it is not just an option, to find jihad killers in their societies, & eliminate or remove them, since they actually serve no just purpose, other then bleak so-called religious fanaticism. We all know by now, the world’s religions are only fables. In light of this fact, what must we do? Well, the first thing is to ensure, fanatical elements of our global society, are not allowed to engage in some sort of Armageddon, in the face of rational minds, while we rationalists are finally making a little headway in modern society. Why must societies allow primitive & superstitious minds to supersede rational minds? It appears to have occurred in the past; as ancient Greece was developing rational minds; i.e. Aristotle & Plato questioned the feeble human mind, for flaws or weakness, through philosophy, but as we know history, we still had to suffer through the dark ages, & the religious dark ages prevailed for hundreds of years. Irrationality dominated the sphere, until the European & American Enlightenment. Are we about to let this same occurrence reoccur? Islam wishes to execute secular rationalists, in the USA & Europe, through a nuclear holocaust. This is not only unacceptable, but also impermissible. We must hunt Islam’s jihad, until their wish for holocaust, is finally eliminated, & Islam’s leadership; the Mullah, Cleric, & Imam element, proclaiming their right to dominant our rational western world; is finally removed from our imminent danger. So, what’s the plan to stop these primitive Islamic minds, from executing their malicious plan to eliminate us infidels?

I didn't know that about Minneapolis; the article discussed in the link above deals with New York City, but it sounds like these "artists" are cut from the same cloth. Some of the performers' and song names just beg not to be taken seriously.

But where they perform-- and who sponsors the events-- is always interesting to observe.

don't forget that some very well-heeled foundations support the so-called "left." What is called "left" today stands for barbarism. It's funny that years ago in France there was a "leftist" party called "Socialisme ou Barbarie." Today the "leftists" are obviously barbarians; maybe not all but most.

It is also curious that the Left of today somehow does not see all that capital in the hands of Arab/Muslim princes, amirs, shaykhs, etc. It is also ironic that these amirs and shaykhs and muluk were enriched by Uncle Sam and other Western capitalist powers. See discussions below on how the Western powers helped enrich the Arab oil monarchs and the relation of the Left to that situation.

The Bolsheviks declared their support for Muslim political goals shortly after the Bolshevik coup d'etat in Russia [1917]. See below:

Both the Bolsheviks [and their followers today, Stalinists, Trotskyists, Maoists, Pabloites, etc] and certain Western govts have fostered Muslim oppression of dhimmis, and in fact have favored jihad.

This is complete BS even by your standard. Where in the link does it say that there was any "jihadist" in the A.N.S.W.E.R. gathering? Let alone any convergence between "the left" and Islam(there were only 20 in the meeting, quite a convergence and quite a representative of "the left" even indeed a few invisibe Islamists were in the mix)

Basically the guy went to the meeting as an "undercover" and discovered nothing remarkable
other than the usual rhetorics from the international socialist types.

Also, since when did opposing the illegal war in Iraq become synonymous with being a "jihadists"? Are you suggesting the millions of people all over the world who protested against the invasion were all "jihadists"?

I can see this is coming right out of Daneil Pipe's play book, who in a straight face tells us all muslims who support the Palestinians against Israeli occupation as "radical Islamists"(failing his self serving "litmus test").

Don't idiots like you ever get tired of making crap up? The war was not illegal. Read the ceasefire agreement from the first Gulf War. By all means, shut your mouth unless you know what the hell you are talking about. Don't bother answering back. You're not worth a flame war and any smug, half-assed, leftist retorts will not be acknowledged.

Oh yeah, the word is 'Christians' not 'Xians' dumbass. Learn to spell.
