A message from Robert Spencer

Dear Jihad Watch reader:

As I write this, there are people who would like nothing better than to see me dead. In fact, we just received another threat last week.

What have I done to "deserve" threats? As the founder and director of Jihad Watch, I have dared to expose the otherwise underreported or misreported activities of jihadists not only in America but also in Europe, Russia, Asia, Indonesia, Australia, Africa -- and everywhere else jihad is being waged around the world today.

I have also countered -- in frequent radio and TV appearances, and in countless books, articles and speeches -- the dishonest efforts of many Muslim spokesmen to conceal the true nature of jihadist activities, and to obscure the traditional meaning of jihad as enjoined upon every faithful Muslim by Muhammad himself: which is to subdue, by force if necessary, the entire non-Islamic world to Muslim rule.

For our pains, we at Jihad Watch have been vilified as anti-Muslim "bigots," denounced by Muslim pressure groups (such as the Council on American Islamic Relations, a.k.a. CAIR), and worse. And I myself have been threatened with death by jihadist Muslims who speak openly about having put me on a "hit list." For one public appearance in New York City, in fact, the NYPD placed me under the protection of its "Hercules Team," an anti-terrorist SWAT unit.

Although I take these threats quite seriously, I have decided not to let them deter me from continuing our work, which I believe plays a crucial role in the defense of our civilization and our way of life.

But I desperately need your help. Unlike CAIR, unlike the hundreds of Saudi-funded mosques that are spreading the extremist Wahhabi Muslim ideology right here in America, we at Jihad Watch operate without the backing of Middle Eastern oil billions. In fact, we operate with only a couple of volunteers.

That is why I am writing to you today. If Jihad Watch is even to continue our all-important work -- much less to expand our truth-telling efforts as we would like to -- we must build our staff and operations to a level capable of countering the oil-funded propaganda efforts of jihadists and their allies.

And that means gathering not only operating capital (of dire importance right now), but also seed capital for our own fundraising campaign -- and that campaign has to start with you. I have no one else to turn to.

If each of you gave $1,000, we'd be well on our way to our meeting our crucial goals. Now, that might be a lot for some, but, if those who could, gave more, we would still meet our present needs -- and more important, begin building a stable base for future action (we have quite a few things we would like to do, if only funding permitted). And eliminate the need to make special, urgent requests like this one.

Won't you please make a tax-deductible donation right now? Checks may be sent to: Jihad Watch, PO Box 9437, Gaithersburg, MD 20898-9437. Or you can donate amounts up to $100 (with complete confidentiality and security) here at the website, using the Amazon and PayPal links at left.

Again, I implore you to be generous. And I thank you with deepest gratitude.

Sincerely,
Robert Spencer
Director, Jihad Watch

Robert,

I think you've been very professional in how you've gone about this website. However, lately I've been thinking that the comments here that are in poor taste are an unacceptable risk. They will inflame your enemies, who won't distinguish between you and the commenters. It might be best to sanitize the site by getting rid of comments, at least until they can be moderated. They sometimes make the site seem extreme. A purely dry and scholarly site might make you safer.

Posted by: Benjamin [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:01 PM

One note needs to be struck. If you currently give money to further a museum, a university, a symphony orchestra, the Save Venice Foundation -- chances are that whatever good you are doing or think you are doing with that contribution will not mean much if Western Europe, the source and heart of our civilization, is islamized, or if it becomes -- as it will inevitably become unless there are changes of mind and heart -- a place for Infidels of great unpleasantness, expense, and physical insecurity.

If you are interested in the environment, think of how often here it has been suggested -- and only here -- that there is a natural community of interest between those who wish to change the energy policy of this prodigal country for environmental reasons, and those who wish to do it so as to deprive the Jihad of its "money weapon."

Almost any sums you now contribute to anything will mean a lot less, and may mean nothing at all, if the Infidel world, beginning with this country, fails to comprehend what is happening, and what could be done to prevent or at least minimize the harm that Infidels must endure -- and that in the end, if some or many of the things suggested here were done, the Infidels would save hundreds of billions of dollars and achieve far more than is being done with such expenditures.

That is worth something. We are holding out a hand in Eleemosynary Position #1, looking as winsome as possible. But we are not forcing upon you any of those formulaic dunning letters by assorted schools and organizations, each of which claims to be so wonderful, and each of which turns out to be so disappointing (you give, say, to your old college, only to find out later, if you ever do, that that college is nothing like what it was as you remember it, and that it has its own ward-churchills and Mesanostrans on campus, brainwashing the young).

The sums received so far will not keep this operation afloat. Some here have comforted themselves with the thought that there must be some hidden funds (there aren't), or that those who adopt the pose of the languorous rich must be (they aren't).

Think of this not as civilizational insurance (for that would mean receiving your payoff after that civilization has died) but rather, medical insurance: designed to keep you as healthy as possible by changing the mental environment that threatens all Infidels.

This does not seem to be asking for much. This country is full of organizations and people with their hands out. Some of them make fortunes in their speaking tours and then keep asking for more. This operation is not like that. We think instead of giving to them, if you do, you should change your will -- not as in last will and testament -- but your desire, your volition -- about what you think is worth supporting.

Posted by: Hugh [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:17 PM

Keep up the good work, Robert. I have enjoyed your books and read this site regulary. Today I sent a little cash and registered. Probably won't post much but the work you do is much appreciated.

Posted by: cmd [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:20 PM

Mr Spencer,

I am a student, and I am living off of student loans. However, I will be sending you a check soon. In my personal budget I will classify it as a tuition fee. ;-)

Benjamin,

Of course it is not my neck that is out there...not yet. However, are you suggesting that Mr. Spencer engage in the first step in the Trail of Tears that is Dhimmitude? Will that make him safer? For how long? What will be the next demand?

What will make he and all of us safer is to spread the truth of the nature of the enemy, and to DEFEAT him. Negotiation is not an option.

For every death threat that any of us receive, the enemy reveals himself to us and to the public at large. He has been forced out of his hiding place among us. As such, it is a victory for us each and everytime one of the Islamofascists rears his theocratic head.

Posted by: Trupolitik [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:21 PM

I'm confused. If what is written on this site is so wrong why don't these people just ignore it? I was so glad to have found this site to open my eyes. The more I look into the subject of islam the less I believe this whole "we are peaceful" stuff. What they say does not tally with the way they act. In the UK we have the muslim council of britain who condemned the UK bombings. It turned out that they were right behind the Isreal suicide bombings though.

Posted by: DaveMate [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:31 PM

Benjamin;
You are the type of person that this website dosen't need!!! This website is called "Jihad Watch/Dhimmi Watch! If you want dhimmitude, then stick with the mainstream media. The whole basic of this website is FREEDOM OF SPEECH! The mainstream media won't give us the facts. And in some cases, fabricate the news. (NBC Vs. General Motors.) To suggest that the speech on this website be "watered down" is foolishness on your part. And shows that when it is time to defend our liberties, YOU can NOT be counted on.
This website is not anti-Muslim, it's anti-sharia rule. It's not our fault that the majority of pro sharia are Muslim. A vast majority of us on this website take part in this blogg because it's evidence of what makes us free. It's what makes us united against a common enemy that is sworn to either our conversion, enslavement, or death. We are Americans, British, Italians, Germans, Danish, Swedes, Finnish, French, Spainards, Portugues, Greek, Norwegians, Dutch, Westerners, we are the Free World united against Islamic rule, dhimmitude and sharia. All different, all FREE!!!
Those not willing to fight/die for freedom, liberty, and independence and are cowards, you need not apply.
Robert, the check is in the mail!
You are a true citizen of the Free World.
God Bless you and the GREAT WORK you are doing with this website.

Posted by: Ironman Hondo [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:34 PM

Robert have you considered asking for help from anti-Jihadist Indian organisations like "RSS of America" or even the American Right wingers. Agreed that asking for help from political quarters opens you for typical leftist criticism, but thats better any day than shutting the shop.

Posted by: Vikrant_Camberleykar [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:38 PM

Robert,

I love the site. I loved your book. What I've learned from your site is better than what any university on the planet could have taught me. It makes sense out of what was once non-sensical. I will happily pay my "tuition" for this Jihad Watch University which has given me a priceless education. Thank you so much,

Tomilio

Posted by: Tomilio [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:47 PM

Robert, my check is in the mail.

But now that you've released the address, be sure to send someone else down to check your P.O. box. I know of some unemployed and disenfranchised "French" youths that may be looking for work...

Posted by: Know Your Enemy [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:48 PM

Trupolitik - I'm in the same boat. But if we can find the money, anyone can-- there's always a way, if the cause is that important. And it is.

Posted by: Shinoliite [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 3:55 PM

Where are the Pew, Ford, and McKnight foundations when it really matters?

Out there funding the Islam, probably.

Posted by: Alarmed Pig Farmer [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 4:02 PM

If each of you gave $1,000, we'd be well on our way to our meeting our crucial goals


May I suggest that you let it be known exactly what your financial goals are and then you may want to post how close you are to meeting those stated goals.

Granted the enemy will be watching and they may see that you are not being supported at all and dismiss you entirely -- or conversely, you may prove to be a bigger force than they reckoned.

Perhaps it is possible to do some fund-raising as part of a "Jihadwatch Foundation" whose purpose would be classified as educational -- then perhaps you could qualify for certain Federally funded grants?

Also, would you accept annonymous donations?

In any case -- there are plenty of nutcases out there -- so do protect yourselves regardless.

Posted by: witness [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 4:06 PM

Robert-

Ask and ye shall recieve.

I will donate what I can, I hope everyone else can see their way to contributing something. I look at it this way if Robert and his team came for dinner surely you would put something on the table and surely it would be the best you could afford. The JW team let me into their house everyday and they have never asked for a thing in return.

The check is in the post sir.

Posted by: km [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 4:09 PM

Robert -

I doubt you are in danger over your bloggers' excesses. You are in danger because you are effective.

I will try to help.

Posted by: Havoc [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 4:15 PM

I can't give $1000, but I will donate. Also, I'm spreading the word on my blog.

+++++++++++++++

Benjamin, be mature and realize that we are in a war with islam and words will not win this war. Words will help to inform and convince those that are willing to read and listen. The mo's only care about destroying all individuals that exposes the mo's to the clarity of light.

We that post with a militant stance keep this site safe, for the mo's understand that there are those at this site that will fight and defend our right to remain free in spite of our own government's ignorance of the threat of the cult of islam.

America was formed by war. The words came at the time they were needed to rally the soldiers and to unite the states into a free nation.

Benjamin, you continue with the words but realize that there will be a time when you will have to trade your pen for a sword or die in the conflict.

Prepare, be armed be ready.

Freedom, the only choice at any cost.

Posted by: Texican [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 5:01 PM

Dear Mr Spencer: done, and I'm sorry that it took a plea from you to make me contribute something to the efforts of you and your colleagues. Please may you continue. This website and the associated site Dhimmiwatch are absolutely indispensable in the resistance against the global jihad: you are the online one-stop-shop for all information about and armaments against encroaching islamization. You absolutely must continue.


Posted by: Dane [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 5:08 PM

Robert - Couldn't do $1000.00, but have sent via PayPal a smaller amount.

Could you, Hugh, or someone else contact me about some other ideas I have and would be willing to fund the seed money for.

Thanks!

Posted by: balticwaves [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 5:09 PM

Anyone that has'nt bought Robert's books....do so now.
Anyone that has....buy them again..Spread the word.! I live in the front(western) line.
THIS SITE MUST NOT DIE.

Posted by: wakeupmorpheus [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 5:15 PM

Damn, the NZ dollar has just gone down! But I will give what I can: the threat of islamism is the most important message to get out there today.

Posted by: Lili [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 5:21 PM

Benjamin; You are the type of person that this website dosen't need!!!

Look, I'm as concerned about the threat to our civilization as you are ... though for the moment it seems like it's the Europeans who really need to be afraid.

My point was simply that avoiding the inflammatory language found in some comments might reduce the risk somewhat. Any risk reduction is good. Of course, people like Hugh could go on posting in the comments section, because he probably puts illiterate barbarians to sleep...

Posted by: Benjamin [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 5:50 PM

I wonder what the internet traffic amounts to (both bytewise and moneywise) on a site like this, I sure would like to help some more...

Brian, Denmark

Posted by: Canman [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 5:55 PM

Robert Spencer,

You have my best wishes for your continued success and that of Jihad Watch. Bracha v'Hatzlacha! (blessings and success).

That being said, consider also finding a single donor (or more) with extremely deep pockets, such as family or corporate money. Perhaps Certiorari can help here.

Posted by: HaMalach [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 6:08 PM

Please, all readers of this site: all of us who have learnt from our betters, right here, please contribute financially. It's extremely important. Please enable Robert and Hugh and their colleagues to continue the vital work that they do. I repeat: it's more important than anything that jihadwatch and dhimmiwatch continue. Don't we all feel that?

Posted by: Dane [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 6:10 PM

I feel really low that I'm broke because of excessive cell phone use and traveling to Canada. I'm an international student from Saudi (Indian) and usually cash strapped. However, this plea by Mr. Spencer should shame many of us (at least me) who have not thought of donating as of yet. If only I was George Soros...
However, I've decided to use my free printing privileges in the university to print many JihadWatch flyers and leave them lying all over campus for a start. From next semester I plan to regularly donate from my bi-weekly paychecks.

Tushar

PS - Robert, I think we were sort of disillusioned due to the magnificent success of P.I.G. to Islam (book)...those revenues cut too short I suppose?

Posted by: Tushar Saxena [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 6:29 PM

Dear Mr Spencer
I have been avidly reading your site for some time. I have never before made a comment on a website nor contributed to a web-based appeal. Nervously registering to do both has taken me more than an hour - but I was determined to support your work. To other elderly luddites out there -try it, it wasn't too difficult! I urge all other passive readers to get active. Kate

Posted by: Kate [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 6:32 PM

Robert is at risk. Anyone that speaks the truth about Islam is at risk.

However, those of us that take such risks know that to continue down a path of dhimmitude and appeasement is worse than the spectre of an untimely demise. Some things are just worth the risk.

I will always give what I can to make sure that Jihad Watch continues, be it money, time or just good old American moral support. It is that important.

Posted by: Foehammer [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 6:45 PM

Once more I have to say that all of us, long-time lurkers and whatever, should finally own up and put our money where our mouths are. I've been reading jihadwatch and dhimmiwatch since 9/11, and I've thought about contributing but put it off, because it's all free after all, but here is Robert Spencer risking his life for God's sake to bring us information to use against the global jihad. We have to help him.

Posted by: Dane [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 6:47 PM

Mr. Spencer,

Many thanks for your crucial work.

Glad you have the paypal link. Just sent my bit. (If I hit the lottery big, you'll be a major bequest.)

Everybody needs to remember that without this site the castrated blather that passes for 'analysis of Islam' would far more prevalent online.

Put something on ebay and send the proceeds. Have a bake sale, yard sale, or hock your grandma's spare dentures. (She won't be in the mood to eat if reduced to a dhimmi within a Sharia state.)

Posted by: profitsbeard [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 6:59 PM

Been a lurker for quite some time now, and have grown steadily more addicted, as I realize more and more the importance and necessity of this site. Happy to donate, although not as much as I would like. But keep going, Robert, please. I applaud your bravery and courage.

Posted by: big7625 [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 7:17 PM

I recall my late father's satisfaction when he wrote a check for Olover North's defense fund. He declared that if the President was forced to break the law to fight communism we're in one Hell of a mess. I think I can paraphrase that by saying that if a scholar risks his life to spread the truth, we are really and truly in one Hell of a mess. My check will be in the mail soon. Spend it however you wish. With the first $500 you receive, you might think in terms of a Glock 9 mm. Do they have a "concealed carry" law in Undisclosedlocationville?

Posted by: Pelayo [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 7:18 PM

'Mohammed':

I hope you read this. The more threats your side utters, the more people I will inform of your evil ways.

And I've been successful! One year ago my girlfriend was naive about your religion, thinking it was a 'religion of peace.' After a year of quietly and gently pointing her to jihadwatch, she has not only changed her mind, she is now informing her friends about the true intentions of Islamic terrorists.


Posted by: thirstyscribe [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 7:19 PM

I never have much money at any one time - but Paypaling what I can. I wouldn't mind you hitting me often. I'm like a lot of people - I could scrape up $20 or $50 regularly but never have $1,000 at one time.

Posted by: poetcomic1 [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 7:22 PM

Mr. Spencer,

I have been supporting you and Jihad Watch by buying your books and informing all that I can about Jihad Watch. I wish I could send $1,000 but I'm afraid it will have to be a lot less. As long as my son and his friends are on the front line fighting jihadists in Iraq and Afghanistan, their needs are my first and principal monetary responsibility. But you still deserve whatever I can manage to scrape up.

Posted by: Don Miguel [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 7:25 PM

witness: May I suggest that you let it be known exactly what your financial goals are and then you may want to post how close you are to meeting those stated goals.

I think you have a good idea there but I would think it unwise to publish $-amounts. Robert knows the target he has for say the next 12 months. So he can show the goal as "100%" and the actual is then published regularly. Showing actuals engages the contributors and potential contributors, which in turn stimulates further contributions.


Posted by: raven_ [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 7:40 PM

Robert,

What have you done to "deserve" threats? You've told the truth and unfortunately nowadays, people can't handle that much honesty. But I applaud you for it, for truth will set you free. Keep up the good work. You must be really effective to have that much "love" coming your way.

BTW, my check is in the mail.

And hey guys, don't be disheartened. If we each told ten or twenty of our friends about this we could get the $1000 in no time. Robert doesn't care how we get it. Just get it.

Posted by: Isabellathecrusader [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 7:44 PM

I'm proud to say I just PayPal'd fifty bucks. And happily so.

I agree with Sneaky's suggestion to use advertising. Nothing is free. Adverts on a website I like, for me, are an acceptable intrusion.

Posted by: Jim The Kafir [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 7:57 PM

I like the idea of setting a fundraising goal which was mentioned above. Robert, I think you should consider setting that goal and perhaps ask some of the big name bloggers (and not so big name bloggers) to post your request. This is just a start of course and you won't be able to achieve everything with this fundraiser but if you set the goal amount and what you hope to do with the funds, then people will respond. Think it over. Repost the request later this week once you've figured out the numbers and the programs you want to start up.

Posted by: igor [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 8:03 PM

To me, this site is the world's most important website. The value-add Spencer and Fitzgibbons bring to the table is extremely high. I know execs making $500,000 a year who don't bring as much value to the table.

Here's an idea: JW applies to all the major majors foundations. RS & HF keep a diary of the adventure. They of course are turned down flat by everybody, rejection letter-style. The two write an article about the experience and publish it in the Wall Street Journal Op Ed page.

Businessmen and conservatives throughout the WSJ subscriber base read it and blush in shame. No, they don't contribute, they just wish RS, HF, and Islam would disappear into thin air.

Posted by: Alarmed Pig Farmer [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 8:09 PM

$1000 bucks? Can't do that in one shot but I pledge $250 a month starting next month till the first of next year for a total of $2000.

Robert, no thanks ever required, instead - THANK YOU!!!

Posted by: Infidel33 [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 8:16 PM

Robert – I appreciate your invitation to “join the fight” and I want you to know I have now completed four of the Five Pillars of Freedom: (1) Visit Jihad Watch and Dhimmi Watch daily, (2) Order “Defeat Jihad” T-Shirts and Bumper Stickers (3) Send “The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (And the Crusades)” as a gift to loved ones and (4) Make a contribution to Jihad Watch.

Of course, I’ll continue to work on the fifth Pillar – Educating Others about Jihad – for some time to come.

I urge Jihad Watch readers to consider diverting all funds they had planned to donate to political causes this year to Jihad Watch. Certainly our Republican and Democrat representatives have done a poor job of protecting us from Jihad. Vote as you see fit, but donate your dollars to an effort that is producing fruit – Jihad Watch!

Posted by: Jumpintimmy [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 8:35 PM

Robert, I'm sending my donation via pen pal tonight.

I must confess that I doubt Hugh upsets any true Jihadist fanatic out there, because his prose is so outstanding that I doubt such a illiterate jihadi could make heads or tails of his language, his wit. Kind of like a fat ape, trying to decipher Shakespere.

Posted by: biorabbi [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 8:56 PM

JW/DW are a daily read for me and I've purchased and read all of your books and many of those recommended by you and your staff. This site has provided me (and countless others) with a valuable education.

Unfortunately, I've never been comfortable making purchases (or donations) online. Now that you have posted a mailing address I will definitely send what I can (regularly) . . .with lottery tickets (hopefully winning tickets) with every intention to help you fulfill your goal.

All the best to you and your staff.

Posted by: justamomof4 [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 9:00 PM

The free world is under siege.
We must rise to meet the challenge. There is no alternative.

Robert, I don't have 1000. I will give what i can.

My country is drowning in a sea of Wahabi fundamentalism and all the talk you hear is about sea level rise.
JW is a beacon of light and hope.
Thank you Robert, Hugh, and all who are taking part.

THIS SITE MUST NOT DIE.

Posted by: The Pig Loving Maldivian [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 9:24 PM

Robert, you can count on my help. I am grateful for all that you are doing and think that every member of Jihad watch should at least donate $100.

I promise to be as generous as I can both at this moment and in the future.

I thank that a pledge system where by one can commit to monthly amount with a yearly total would work better for those of more limited mean.

God bless you. please do not shut down the comment section as it is very important for the Jihad opposition to reach out and find like souls.

Posted by: El Cid [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 9:26 PM

Wow! just goes to show ya people SUCK, and don't want the truth even discussed on the internet. Mr Spencer don't give in (AT ALL).

Posted by: Denver [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 9:30 PM

what have you done to deserve death? well of course you don't deny putting the blasphemous photos of the Holy Prophet (May His Peace be Upon You)of course. And surely you don't deny being a general thorn in the skin of worldwide Jihadism, the ones like you,who know what they are talking about are really the most troubling to those ertswhile defenders of the so called Muslim Faith. I have always struggled with the concept of a "religion" that claims, as a part of it's religious duties, the right, much less the power to convict ordinary people in any part of the word for offenses that they claim to be worthy of death because the offense was somehow, a perceived affront to the so-called religion of peace that they adhere too.It would seem to be the most outrageous oxymoron, a religion of peace that busies itself with the decapitation of offenders. Here lies an important distinction between our Muslim friends, and for instance the Jesuit Catholic priests that raised me. Yes, I have to admit they did hit my knuckles with rulers at times, but never did they chop heads, or feel the need to issue Fatwa's on any persons who may have violated some aspect of Catholic life. Even us altar boys who were guilty of drinking the unconsecrated wine when no priest was around, surely that should have been worth a death Fatah at the very least. I wonder how the same Muslims would feel if we started to enforce the same types of laws agaisnt them. An eye for an eye, as it were. That always seemed to be concept they could wrap their hands round. On the other hand I would not be too worried if I were you since after all these years no one has tried to kill Salmond Rusdhie that I am aware of. I think just talking about killing this infidel, or that infidel, gets thier blood going and it makes them feel as if they actually accomplished something that day other than sitting around playing dominoes, beating the wife, and smoking the hookah all day. Please Robert Spencer, keep up your magnificient work, if they manage to chop off your infidel head who could possibly replace you? And, as always, may the Peace of The Holy Prophet be Upon You!

Robert,

God Bless you and keep up the good work. I will do what I can do to help you, because I do have limited means.

Robert,

I will send a check from my business tomorrow.

Tonight I was at Boders Books and I placed your "Islam Unveiled" facing out on the top shelf with all the Korans where it belongs.

Your work must continue.

Posted by: Briars [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 7, 2006 9:43 PM

My check is also in the mail (really!), at least it will be on Monday. I have earmarked everything I used to donate to the now worthless Republican party for you. Not that it's a bundle, but it should help. My income is not consistent and my trust fund is tightly controlled by greedy bankers, so I will have to make my contributions quarterly.

I hope we can raise enough to keep you afloat. Please keep us apprised of the situation; money has a way of miraculously materializing in times of dire emergency.

I must confess that I doubt Hugh upsets any true Jihadist fanatic out there, because his prose is so outstanding that I doubt such a illiterate jihadi could make heads or tails of his language, his wit. Kind of like a fat ape, trying to decipher Shakespere.

hello Robert, thank you for your patience with me and your many long hours of work in reseach. l cannot begin to thank you and your staff! l had asked for your address a while ago, and l am to great procrastinator.. but l will mail you your check in US funds. and will keep a budget in place. some website have a small fee that you pay such as Rush's, althoug he is a very rich man, but people like him know how to work the system, and not saying its bad, but maybe you need to create a two tier system a free site and another site to post? just a
thought.or Drudge's site has a lot of advertising. but maybe most companies are too timid. your work is far more important than most.
and l have budgeted what l buy in books to go to your website. and know that most others feel the same way. l have even sent you web addresses to my dog list l belong to, when ever politics come into play.. and any how l know about a thousand or more dog people just got it this week!

Robert

I'm sorry to hear about the financial state of Jihadwatch. I wish I could do more, but I've just been hit with a huge tax bill that I'll have to send to not just Unca Sam, but Sacramento as well. Need to finance the Jiziya to the good people of Egypt, Pakistan, Iraq, Indonesia and a number of other countries whose denizens practice their "Allahu Akbar" war cry, so that those of them who manage to make it here can continue to send you their threats, such as the above. Sigh...

I'll donate what I can, when I can. Hugh, I agree with you - if I was donating cash to any charity or cause, Jihadwatch would be first on my list. (Too bad J/W can't take kind - I have a whole bunch of kid's clothing that my kid has outgrown and that I'd love to donate. However, something tells me that that would be completely worthless in helping J/W run its operations.)

Posted by: Infidel Pride [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 1:18 AM

Notwithstanding the melodramatic plea for funding (no problem there), this inaccurate statement stuck out in Mr. Spencer's letter:

"... and to obscure the traditional meaning of jihad as enjoined upon every faithful Muslim by Muhammad himself: which is to subdue, by force if necessary, the entire non-Islamic world to Muslim rule.

That's a malicious lie, and you know it. There isn't a single instance in which the Prophet Muhammad ordered Muslims to subdue and/or invade the entire non-Islamic world.

Posted by: historymove [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 1:47 AM

Robert, I own all your books, just Paypal'ed a couple of Ben Franklins, and bought bumperstickers and a t-shirt. The bumperstickers will be placed in high-traffic areas as advertisement for jihadwatch.org.

I am thinking of the billions of dollars that the Saudis spend to finance the spread of Islam; I am also thinking of the periodic emails you receive from confused jihadists asking where they can join the jihad.

Is it possible that a small percentage (say, in the tens of millions) of the Saudi funding could be diverted to jihadwatch.org? Just a quick letter to the Saudi royal family with a few flowery references to Mohammad (PBUH), a description of how you are spreading the word of Allah (SAW) among the infidels, and a few veiled references to "the mission" might be enough to bring home the bacon. Assuming they are not too informed about what jihadwatch actually is.

After seeing the influence of Saudi and UAE petrodollars on U.S. politicians during the Dubai ports deal, it truly sickens me to know that there are no deep-pocket donors who would benefit from spreading the truth about Islam, while there is so much money available for hiding the truth about Islam.

I hope that there is some way to work through the current financial situation.

Posted by: special_guest [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 1:53 AM

"Christianist Soldier of God" and "historymove", who are you, really? Are you Sunni or Shi'ite? Saudi or Pakistani?

Anyways, your stupid calls for genocide will simply be erased from the site. Time to learn some new tricks, moron.

Of all the open calls that Robert has made challenging prominent Muslims to debate, and of all the billions of Muslims in the world, there is yet to be an honest, reasonable response from the Islamic world to the information made available by JW/DW. It speaks volumes that the only response Islam can come up with is death threats, slandering, and underhanded trickery.

Posted by: special_guest [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 2:21 AM

To Benjamin:

I used to think the same way, that the comments section should be shut down. The comments at times have a bit of extremism that maybe does prevent numbers of people from ever really opening their minds to Robert's reports and thoughts or giving him a chance, though Robert himself is not at all an extremist -- to me he seems like the best kind of New York Times reporter (though I rarely buy it anymore, the New Duranty Times on occasion still has some of the most brilliantly trained, highly ethical, world class talent in the world). He's without malice, even gentle with attackers and slanderers, and remarkably disciplined in sticking to facts and logic. It is quite something to notice that whenever he goes beyond facts to conclusions, his conclusions never stray from close contact with facts, never become dogmatic free floating sentiments spouted in the subtly intoxicated manner of the ideologist or extremist. Robert's epistemological sobriety, humility and calm is what makes him one of the absolute Zen masters, a real grownup, of the debate on Jihad. And I shouldn't forget that this site is also blessed with Hugh's wisdom, his amazing erudition, insight, and detailed colorful knowledge of places and things and words well beyond the ken of most. His adoption of "dude language" briefly in a post from a few days ago, as in "Shur dude," and his neologism "dudity," in the context where it came up, had me laughing. But I've got to wind down this post.

So the 'yippee-yahoo' comments we all, or I and many others, sometimes post here to let off steam or indulge our less educated emotions may put an obstacle between Jihad Watch and some of the people Robert most needs to have visiting and watching here.

Lately though, I put in the other scale of the balance how much I've learned by posting here -- how much thinking and researching I've done in writing posts. I've had a lot of fun, like a kid in a sandbox. I'd guess some of my posts have been as childish as any child's constructions. But writing out what we think can help us gradually edit our errors.

I donated through Paypal -- not a grand, but what I could. Will try to keep it coming in future.

Posted by: km [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 2:29 AM

historymove said:

There isn't a single instance in which the Prophet Muhammad ordered Muslims to subdue and/or invade the entire non-Islamic world.

Well, historymove, for starters, how about Chapter 8, Verse 39 of the Quran:

008.039

YUSUFALI: And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah altogether and everywhere; but if they cease, verily Allah doth see all that they do.

PICKTHAL: And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is all for Allah. But if they cease, then lo! Allah is Seer of what they do.

SHAKIR: And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do.

historymove, you can say I am misinterpreting the above, but it's not my interpretation that matters. I'm just pointing out that many Muslims interpret the above verse this way(understandably, given what it plainly says). So you don't need to convince me. You need to convince them.

Also consider the lethal form of compulsion advocated in the following three verses:

Chapter 9, Verse 123

PICKTHAL: O ye who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are near to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who keep their duty (unto Him).

Chapter 9, Verse 29

SHAKIR: Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Messenger have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book [Christians and Jews], until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.

Chapter 9, Verse 5

PICKTHAL: Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then leave their way free. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

Unfortunately, historymove, most Muslim authorities agree that Quran verse 2:256, "There is no compulsion in religion" was produced by Mohammed long before Quran chapter 9 and the three verses listed above. And many Muslim authorities agree that according to the Quran's own doctrine of 'abrogation' or canceling (see 2:106 and 16:101), if a later verse or chapter contradicts an earlier one, the later one wins out. So for many Muslim scholars, "there is no compulsion in religion" has gone by the boards, though you wouldn't know it because many persons, for many kinds of reasons, want to conceal this fact. You may consider this interpretation wrong, but again, there are many Muslims who disagree with you. You need to convince them.

-Omar

Posted by: duh_swami [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 3:26 AM

A few minutes ago, I made a financial contribution to jihadwatch on paypal. I hope to contribute more money in the future. I greatly appreciate jihadwatch and everything that it represents to our world.

I check this website on a daily basis and occasionally post when I have time during the day. Jihadwatch is good nourishment for my heart and soul because it provides the news that is so often missed by the mainstream dhimmi media.

Jihadwatch has a valuable role in our society. The mission of jihadwatch is truly a noble pursuit. Robert is a brave intellectual who is committed to exposing the sad truth about jihad to our world. His vocation is an important one.

I want to see jihadwatch flourish and grow in the future. This is the reason that I am happy to make a financial contribution to Jihadwatch. More education is needed to inform people about the real nature of jihad and the danger that is presented in sharia. It is truly heartening to find other people on this website who are also greatly concerned about the encroachment of sharia in the world.

You wrote a wonderful book about the Christian crusades. I am greatly humbled by the past efforts of many ancient Europeans who made incredible sacrifices to defend Christianity and the west against the invading Moslems who violently invaded Europe and oppressed Christians in the Middle East.

I am blessed to have ancestors who also joined in the crusades. One of my distant ancestors from the 14th century Netherlands gave up his livelihood and family for a year and fought in Rhodes. He later prayed for his sick wife in Jerusalem, a spiritual city that was dear to his heart. Fortunatley, this brave dutchman led an army and defeated a Moslem army in Rhodes. He was eventually knighted by an English king for his success. I believe that his crusading spirit still lives somewhere in me. If he were to come back to life today in his homeland, the Netherlands, I am sure that he would be amazed by the increasing Islamization of Europe.

I am not a racist person who despises Muslim people. As a Christian, I beleive that all people were created in the image and likeness of God and are worthy of respect. But I am quite aware that Islam is not "the religion of peace and truth" that Muslim apologists claim it to be. Islam as a religion must be challenged and confronted.

Important websites such as Jihadwatch exposes the truth of jihad and Islam to our world. Thousands of people rely on this website each day. Taking a stand and reporting the truth inspires and inflames the heart.

I hope that Robert continues to keep this website operating. Jihadwatch is sorely needed to dispel the malevolent forces that seek to take away our freedom in the name of Islam.

Keep jihadwatch on the internet!

duh_swami asked

What is a Christianist? What is the meaning of the word 'ameen'?

Exactly. And what is a "holy almighty bible"? CSoG also calls for "WIPE THEM OUT IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST". When did Jesus Christ ever call for "wiping them out"? That doesn't sound like a Christian message, it sounds like the rantings of a certain sociopathic paedophilic prophet.

Dear Robert and Hugh,
If it wasn't for Jihad Watch, we would still be in the dark, where many , of course, would wish us to remain. Try as they might, that will not happen.
Thank you for shedding, and spreading light, allowing us to see the truth, fully revealed.
JW is bringing together people from many corners of the world, from many spiritual paths, who honour and respect each other's way, and wish to protect that right.

You have my admiration, respect, and love, and as soon as I can get PayPal going, my support.

I couldn't summon up a thou at the moment, but I did contribute what I could. All of you are doing a phenomenal job, and I recommend this site to any and all of my co-workers, friends, and family in whom I can raise any concern about the Islamist threat.

I would be very disappointed by a discontinuation of the comments section. Of course, it's your blog, and you're the boss. Still, where would I go for a weekly dose of Naseem's catty observations?

(Animal lovers, don't get me wrong--I like cats. I have two of them. Neither have ever uttered anything as peculiar as some of the Islamic "contributors" to this site, however.)

My thanks and best wishes to the team!

Assalamau_laikum all,

I am truly dissapointed about Mr. Spencer being on some stupid hit list. It is totally uncalled for...everyone is entitled to an opinion..so I hope you remain safe & healthy.

In the UK on the TV I see many free Islamic channels on the satellite channels. Virtually all of the hindi, punjabi & gujarati are pay per view channels. All greedy capatilist ventures, only Islam is generous, & free & it is so easy to spread dawa, the Ahamidi TV channel is free too.

Muslims are not stupid...I'm not certain how they survive on freeview...but Allah SWT works in strange ways and is all seeing.

I have not been to Amrika so cannot comment on the Islamic channels there.

It strikes me that...you (JW) need not only to survive but to expand if you want to try and make a difference...so it maybe revolutionary but why not advertise on TV.

Maybe you are afraid that the subject matter is not fit to put on TV...but bloody hell...at the moment it seems that you are putting your life blood into it..you keep saying that peoples need to know about Islam....so let it come.

Now I tell you this because I know it will not happen not least of all due to PC. In the West..some simple handwaving and token protest like JW will happen as Islam comes into your world and most importantly into your childrens world.

Just imagine, No dogs, No pigs, fewer pets, fewer christians and more muslims, more mosques, friendly imams halal coke jilbab-r-us clothes shops...advances in speaker technology.

Giant arrows pointing to mecca, adverts on TV outlining the time of prayers...all will come to fruition.

All in all a complete transformation to Islamia...all within 50 years.....so yes please go through the motions...get whatever funding you can...say what you need to ....and then get ready for Islam.

Now now Naseem, if you're gonna try to entertain with your schizophrenic rants, at least try to spell the name right. Its "America", not "Amrika". You've been told this before. I understand that you people are often a little slow, but atlases are commonly available, many online, with the correct spelling.

And to Mr. Spencer, I hate to sound like a cliche, but the check's in the mail. Its not $1000, as the gentlemen in the green Army suits aren't giving me a regular allowance anymore.

Posted by: Eisenhund [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 7:36 AM


Naseem, the sun is about to rise. You'd better hurry up and jump into your box, and remember to close the lid.

I gladly sent some money in last evening to this important site.

Back to you Naseem, you are obviously living in another dimension if you think Islam is going to rule the earth at any time. Islam is the answer only for those who wish to live in a sub standard fashion.

If you're proud to be Muslim, knowing how Islam teaches and preaches violence, watching your brethren destroy everything in their fanatical path, then you are the same as them, and should be dismissed as nothing more than another Islamic jester.

Muhammad (SBUH) was an admitted raider and throat slicer. Well, he ordered his followers into war, never having the courage to fight himself.

Where is he now, Naseem? Most likely roasting in hell with all the other demons. He was a coward, and the beneficiary of illiterates who fell for his lies.

If you'll read, Naseem, you'll see that burkhas and hijabs are being banned, Muslims are being rounded up, and tossed out of free societies.

Muslim organizations are losing what little credibility they ever had, and now the Palestinians, who have proven that they love the killing by voting in Hamas as their representatives, have just had funding revoked by the US and the EU.

Nonetheless, Jihad Watch will survive, and press forward. You should convert to a legitimate religion, Naseem.

Meanwhile, hurry into your box before the sun gets too hot.


Posted by: Prickzilla [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 7:49 AM

Naseem,

I read that you believe Islam will conquer the world or at least the USA. Keep dreaming. The truth of the matter is that the Christian Church in the USA is still adding new members. Three churches have seen excellent growth. The reason? Because they both stressed the Bible and a honest living out of faith in Christ. Here is a URL :

http://www.christianpost.com/article/church/2564/section/new.yearbook.reveals.trends.in.us.churches/1.htm

Also have to take into consideration that the nations that have seen massive growth in new Christian believers, the global south is now sending missionaries to the nations that many years eariler sent missionaries to these nations. They are coming to the west, the USA in a special way to set up new churches or to take over leadership in present churches. So this is a begining of a Christian revival.

Don't be upset that Naseem refers to the United States as "Amrika", most ignorant Islamists do.

It just goes to show how in the dark they are about this country, and why, although they are excellent at pretending to be oppressed victims, they will never take anything over in this country.

Just think, how could a nation ever be taken over by Muslims when they are represented by Grassos like "Spanky" Hooper, and dirt bags like Nihad Awad and Arsalan Iftikhar?

Not all Muslims think like these kooks do. Unfortunately, the Muslims who speak out against them are usually threatened or attacked in the press. Islam is going nowhere but down the slippery slope.

There are approximately 1000 more Christians being born every 24 hours than there are Muslims.

http://www.bible.ca/islam/islam-myths-fastest-growing.htm

Check the figures, Naseem. The refusal of Muslims to use birth control isn't going to help the cause of Muslim infestation.

Christians will continue to work to convert Muslims to Christianity, no matter how many swords your Islamist leaders attempt to swing.

It's not to late for you to convert from a cult to a religion, Naseem.

Posted by: Prickzilla [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 10:28 AM

To the Nasseem bashers:

I think you guys dont get that Nasseem simply points out a fact. While the West protesting and writing feelgood letters to Jihadwatch, the islamist are busy making babies... all of them muslims.
How many kids do you, the letter writers, have?
Then go and check out your nearests islamic slum, which is bursting at the seams.

This is hardly a unique experience. Muslims are outbreeding non-muslims all over the world.

All that said, I will now proceed to PayPal and send off my contribution too.

But the future of Western civilization does indeed look bleak to me.

Nasneem, come on now don't pat yourself on the back about those "free" channels on Sky because I'm sure your Saudi buddies have many enterprising endeavours, least alone television broadcasting on Sky.

You should visit the US and Canada and the great cities of Europe and then ask yourself, which of these places can you breathe the breath of freedom and feel great about life more, where Islamic countries live their existence out of rock and sand or out of the fruited and flourshing metropolis and countrysides of the great west?

From some things Naseem has said in other posts, it seems she is trying to do a sort of penance for having doubts and questions about Islam. She expressed fears of hell. (On average, about one in fifteen verses in the Quran threatens with hell.) Part of her penance seems to be to try to persuade people at this site about Islam or to help Islam. If I recall correctly, she is an Ahmadi Muslim, and that means most Muslims don't consider her a real Muslim. In Pakistan, the government in 2005 shut down Ahmadis' ability to publish their literature, and Ahmadis are periodically attacked and killed by mainstream Muslims. I'm not sure, but the Ahmadis seem to represent a slight reform of Islam -- jihad might be more limited, and Mohammed slightly less taken as the 'last word' in all things.

Naseem, I hope you will keep an open mind, keep questioning. Learn to be your own prophet.

The more I read, the more this sounds like nothing more than a political system like nazism, rather than a religion. mohammed spent the start of his life working in trading caravans with jews and christians, he picked the bits of the religions he wanted, married into money then went for the grand prize. This is not the account of a man who spoke to god, rather a man who wanted people to think he spoke to god to get whatever he wanted. Is that wrong? Maybe I misunderstand this. Someone pointed out in a thread recently that "we now know that early marriage for girls is very damaging emotionally and mentally", in mohammeds time it was the norm to marry after the girls first period. The poster pointed out (brilliantly i thought) that even if mohammed didn't know the emotional harm he was causing a young girl by "marrying" at such a young age her surely allah would and point this out to mohammed? Sort of puts a dent in the theory that mohammed spoke to god/allah?
Am trying to understand this "religion" so maybe I am way off the mark. OR maybe I'm not.

Hello Mr Spencer

I am also one of the many "lurkers" who has decided to join in your efforts to bring about an end to islamisation of our planet.

I am from England (Indian origins) and lament at the absence of someone like you on our soil. Here saying anything remotely again islam is still deemed to be "racist" - how pathetic!

As you are well aware, Europe is rapidly being turned into a dhimmistan and unfortunately, USA is heading that way also. Anything that you can do to stop this rot is highly commendable in my book.

My small contribution will be on its way soon.

May I take this opportunity to plug a website that will interest your members who are not already aware of it:
www.faithfreedom.org (NOT .com please!)

One final request: can you please come to our shores to give us one of your illustrious talk/lecture. That ought to put a cat among the dhimmi pc pigeons here!

With best wishes

Derukugi,

It is true that what is creating growth in the Muslim faith is the birthrate. But the truth of the matter is that the Christian faith, the global south in a special way, is growing even faster. One thing to keep in mind. With Easter coming next weekend; in a number of churches, at least in the Catholic Church, a number of new members will be coming in the number of parishes worldwide on Holy Saturday night( Easter vigil Mass ) by either baptism or reception. Special days and events like that should give us here at JW hope that the Christian faith will spread thru these new missionaries.

Robert Spencer:
My wife and I value your contribution to the education of the world on Islam, especially your mission of exposing the deception and sedition, inherent in their belief system. It is our family decision to support you and the work of JihadWatch.
This site is a beacon of truth. The fact is our governments and church leaders seem to be blind; in their ignorance, they act unwittingly as shills or accomplices.
We accept the reality that we ARE in a war: physical, marketing, information and spiritual.

Via snail mail, we are sending you $2000. We believe that this ranks near the top of our expenditure priorities.
Keep up the good work. May God continue to bless you.

Maybe some knows Jerry Lewis and we can get a telethon going and........................

I just pawned one of my KKKorans. Sent $27.77 to Robert Spencer to spread his anti Jihad message

Dear Mr. Naseem,

What's it like to be an adherent of a "religion" that teaches such hatred, violence, and superstitions? I wonder how many bruises you have given your wife if you have one. I wonder what you would think if someone threatend to kill you. You need to remember that it is not just Isalm against Christians and Jews, but Isalm against the entire world and you and your ilk are outnumbered. It is through the bravery and work of Mr. Spencer (peace be upon him) and others (peace be upon them) that your "religion" will be exposed for the big lie that it is. One last thing, I was born a southpaw, that is, left handed. It is my favorite hand, and I really enjoy eating with it.

AND SEND BY PAYPAL if you can. Paypal skims 4% while Amazon skims 15%, same as their take when you sell a used book through them. Which is fair for book selling but not for donating

DhimmiNot is sending $2000! You are a true anti-Jihadist!

patriot2,

Thanks for your concern. You also be careful.

Posted by: bigcatgirl13106 [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 8, 2006 6:31 PM

Mr. Spencer, I'm honored to support your efforts, and encourage you to keep up the good fight. I sent in a donation. Now, please tell me what else I can do to support the anti-jihad movement. You can email me by way of the Pay Pal donation I made; I used my work address for security purposes and would be happy to hear from you.

With best regards,
Just Linda

Poor, misguided naseem. Don't you know that nothing is free? Your boring, colourless, hate-filled free tv is calling your children to become killers of the very people giving them refuge ? You actually feel proud of that?
Seems like there is plenty of money to run these useless tv channels. Here is an idea you may not have thought of. Why not use this money to help yourselves, instead of always begging from the free nations? How long will the muslims keep the refugee camps in pakistan, instead of building homes and real schools? Why not house your muslim families living on the sidewalks around your big mosque in Delhi? The Saudi king offered millions to renovate a mere building, where the people of your religion are begging, and breeding outside of it, living in the filth? But, of course, you will probably blame the Indian government for that. You all never take responsibility for yourselves. WAKE UP!!!!

Ever since reading, "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam", my eyes have been opened for the first time. Thank-you Robert, for educating me (and all who read Jihad/Dhimmi Watch) about the true nature of Islam.

I'm humbled by your courage and expertise, please keep up the good fight...for the sake of our civilization. I can only afford $200 but I know it will be well spent and I'm honored to have the opportunity to support your efforts.

“Now, please tell me what else I can do to support the anti-jihad movement.”
– Just_Linda

I’ve asked myself that very question many times Just_Linda, ‘what else can I do,’ stand on the corner with a sign? Chain myself to the Saudi consulates door? What? What can I do Mr. Spencer? We can help you in some way. I don’t know what, but somehow there must be something we can do besides give money. I sent money this morning but money is hard, my time and effort are given freely. What can I do for you? For free people everywhere? For human rights? Please…just point me in the right direction.

Naseem forgets that Westerners are historically the most dangerous of enemies. It was even a Westerner that brought about the fall of Constantinople, and not the might of the Muslims. It was the expert design of cannon by Urban of Hungary that brought down the great city.

Once the veil of ignorance lifts off the majority of the West, nothing will save Islam from a true reckoning. And lifting that veil is probably the greatest goal of everyone that supports Jihad Watch.

I applaud Naseem for always reminding us of the hubris of the enlightened barbarians. It will be their undoing.

Foehammer, excellent post.

Once the veil of ignorance lifts off the majority of the West, nothing will save Islam from a true reckoning. And lifting that veil is probably the greatest goal of everyone that supports Jihad Watch.

So true so true, if we can expose Islam to the thinking people of the world we will be able to defeat it.

Like sunlight to a vampire, it will perish.

What can we do? we can give money, spread the word and keep our powder dry, soon the events will call us to action.
