" More than 100 radical Islamists affiliated to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) gathered on Thursday in Tehran’s most famous cemetery vowing to blow themselves up in suicide attacks to kill Americans, Britons, and Israelis."

The most famous cemetery in the world will one day be the Moslem Mid East. There is an internal logic in this saga that must ultimately lead to a nuclear attack on Israel and a massive retaliation by Israel that will vaporize Medina and Mecca and the lands of Islam in the region. Islam dictates that.

We are watching an out of control Islamic train, engineer dead at the switch, overheated engine roaring, smoke billowing from its stack, and as we watch we know that sooner or later the speeding train must reach a sharp bend in the track and derail. There is simply no way to stop the catastrophe. All cool headed people (deep in their heart) know the final outcome of this madness. We watch.

I wonder just how many are real volunteers". I don't remember what they called the child "volunteers" they used to clear minefields during the iraq/iran war but most were forced to be "volunteers". I worry more about the suicidal drivers in Tampa traffic than exploding muslims but I realize iran has a bigger bark than bite. I do encourage them to group up before blowing themselves up though. Explosives are expensive, consider circling any bomb in large numbers. Also, practice, practice, practice. Do not wait until you are at a western target, practice at home. Teach suicide bomber classes in iranian schools, just practice at home. Don’t keep allah waiting, blow yourselves up and meet him. Give um my best and remind him we have an appointment.

It has been observed before!! The Muslims, terrorists, insurgents,followers of Allah are so brave that they always hide behind face coverings. They also prefer cowardly ambushes of funerals , weddings, restaurants, churches, hospitals, nightclubs, tourist resorts and even pizza deliverymen. They have discovered that direct confrontations with US Marines/Army forces usually results in a quick death. Apparently dying while killing innocent people is more valuable (easier?) that dying in battle as Allah approves of.
Are they so afraid of showing their faces? Are they afraid of recognition that could further their desire to die? Are they afraid that the US could generate another deck of cards?
Could it be that they are more afraid of the imposter hero Allah? It takes a brave man to stand in front of a camera while beheading a bound and blindfolded captive. It takes a brave man to anniliate innocent bystanders.
Brave men indeed!! Show yourselves and be prepared to die like real men.

The speech last night with Bush and Blair confirmed that Blair has twisted Bush's arm, or was done in agreement to let the oil barons know that the US will now refer to islamofascists as these people. Political correctness for our stance on terrorism, highlighted by the courtmartial of volunteer marines doing their jobs, illustrates that only a severely catastrophic event as nuclear within the mideast will start the end of this insanity. I agree with the comment above that where this is going is obvious, as day by day, hour by hour, things deteriorate.
The sad thing here is that we didn't ask for this; Judaism and Christianity have no identical precepts that one must convert the rest of the world to one religion and in the process pillage, murder, rape, destroy, enslave, take property, tribute, etc. It is all written out in Revelation.

Although I fear you are right, we now have instantaneous information flow and islams biggest threat has always been the truth. Every time one of them runs off at the mouth they discredit themselves, they have no spokesperson expectable by western standards, no role models, no real leaders, just thugs. The truth continues to spread, people worldwide are seeing the entire picture. Their cult grew under a cloak of ignorance. Past victims of islam knew little and were easy victims, we are not ignorant of the threat and will not be victims. This generation could be the turning point.

Iran accuses U.S., Britain of lying about real intentions in Iraq
Fri. 26 May 2006
Iran Focus

Tehran, Iran, May 26 – Iran’s former President Ayatollah Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani accused the United States and Britain on Friday of lying about working to bring about democracy in Iraq.

“The heads of the two countries occupying Iraq admitted during their interview yesterday of having made a mistake in occupying Iraq”, Rafsanjani, who chairs the State Expediency Council, told worshippers in Tehran. His sermon was broadcast live on state television.

U.S. President George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair acknowledged on Thursday that there were “missteps” and “mistakes” in their war on Iraq.

“Blair’s expression of regret for removing the Baathists from Iraq shows that they were after something else in Iraq and their claim of supporting democracy in Iraq was a lie and demagogy”, Rafsanjani said.

“Luckily, with the vigilance of Iraqi officials and clerics, the occupiers are being sent back step by step”, he added.

WHY DOES PEACEFUL ENERGY MAKE IRAN A WORLD POWER?..............Nuclear capability gives Iran status of world power
Fri. 26 May 2006
Iran Focus

Tehran, Iran, May 26 – Obtaining nuclear capabilities has transformed Iran into a world power, hard-line Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said. His comments were reported by the official news agency on Thursday.

“The ability to influence the international landscape gives a country the status of a world power”, Ahmadinejad said.

“Today, with the Islamic Republic of Iran having obtained peaceful nuclear technology, the international landscape has changed and the Islamic Republic of Iran has been transformed into an influential power”, he said.

“Despite propaganda by the Arrogance (West), nations all over the world are increasingly becoming prepared to accept the great goals of the Iranian people’s revolution”, he added.

From Rusty Shackleford's site, I knew it.

Visitors might think they see the signs. For one thing, Afghan men tend to be more intimate with other men in public than is common in the West. They will kiss, hold hands and drape their arms around each other while drinking tea or talking.

Moreover, there is a strong streak of dandyism among Pushtun males. Many line their eyes with kohl, stain their fingernails with henna or walk about town in clumsy, high-heeled sandals.

Posted by: Carolyn2 at May 26, 2006 10:15 AM

Frank-

Western engineering put a fail-safe on trains to prevent such a "runaway" metaphor as you compare Iran to, known as the "dead man's brake"- in short, the driver has to "positively" apply a foot to keep the brakes "off", and, should he drop over from illness, the pedal is released and the brakes automatically apply.

Islam, having never reached this level of rationality, thinks that the only brake needed is a brick wall.

The resistence of the West will be just that.

BTW

If the Israelis ever do need to retaliate against Mahmoud and the mad mullahs, it would be wise if they fulfilled Mohammad's only 'prophecy' (Bukhari volume 2, book 26, verse 666) and arranged to have one of the rescued black Jews from Ethiopia in their military press the button.

Report: Israel warns of World Cup terror

Saudi newspaper says Israel warned US, European intelligence service of possible attempts by Hizbullah cells to carry out attacks during upcoming soccer tournament in Germany in bid to prove to international community that Tehran is capable of retaliation if attacked
Roee Nahmias

Israel has warned European and American intelligence bodies of possible attempts by Hizbullah cells, led by Imad Mugniyah, to carry out terror attacks during the upcoming World Cup tournament in Germany, the Saudi Al-Watan newspaper reported on Friday.

According to the report, the terror plot is aimed at proving to the international community that Tehran is capable of retaliation if attacked.

Sources in Washington said a joint US-European operations room has been set up to deal with such a scenario; to this end, two American
aircraft carriers, along with a French ship are making their way to the Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf

Nice people tend to have quite a bit of patience but once that patience has reached it's end nice people tend to be very focused on setting the offender straight once and for all. I am a nice person and I'm saying we *will* see an end to islam before this century is over if for no other reason than we will finally recognize that in order for other nice people to live in peace islam has to go.

Terror threats at the World Cup.. doesn't surprise me in the least *but* I think if any are carried out the results will be a *big* surprise to those who planned them.

IMO the biggest problem islam has is it *wildly* under estimates it's enemies. That one thing will end up being their fatal error.

I THOUGHT IRAQ DIDNT HAVE ANY WMD........Speaking to a fervent congregation of prayers at Tehran University campus, Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani slammed western states' performance during the 8 years of Iraqi imposed war on Iran and said, "Westerners allowed Saddam to walk along the track for the production of the Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMDs), including chemical and even nuclear weapons and long-range missiles in a bid to block Iran's development, but the Iranian nation's patience and dedication defused all their plots."

Noting the change in the enemies' discourse and their abundant threats against Iran, he stressed, "History has proved that Iran will not allow anyone to usurp its rights, " adding, "Tehran does not wish to worsen the nuclear case, but we advise the world arrogance to revise its behavior."

Pointing to US President George W. Bush's confession of the US Army's mistreatment of prisoners in Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo, Rafsanjani stated, "This proves that they have had many miscalculations in their strategies and they must be aware that they are repeating the same error in Iran's nuclear case."

Addressing the West, the Interim Friday Prayers Leader of Tehran warned the western states against their radical treatment of Iran's case, saying that the West would have to confess to its mistakes and errors in future if it decided to continue its current hostile behavior and efforts.

WE WILL BLAST YOU WITH PEACE.....WE WILL SHOOT YOU WITH JOY......BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iran would hit back against any U.S. attack, Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said during a visit to Baghdad on Friday.

"In the event that Americans attack Iran anywhere, Iran will respond with an attack in that place," he told a joint news conference with Iraq's speaker of parliament, Mahmoud al-Mashhadani.

Mottaki's remarks were translated into Arabic.

But he suggested he did not believe the United States would attack Iran, saying: "We don't see that America is in a position where it would create a new crisis for the American tax payer."

The United States and Iran are fiercely at odds over Western accusations that Iran's nuclear power program is a cover for making weapons. Iran denies the accusations and says it has a right to a peaceful nuclear program.

OT, but I just got around to reading the June issue of Reason magazine's column "The Jihad Against Muslims. When does criticism of Islam devolve into bigotry?" by Cathy Young. In it, she refers to Jihad Watch as a right-wing site and asks the question: "Is Islam more intolerant and violent than other faiths"

Ms. Young answers with "The truth is that the canonical texts of every major religion are full of contrtadictory statements that can be cherry-picked for a variety of messages". She goes on to give examples of Biblical "intolerance". Oddly enough, no examples of head-choppin' madness from the "Holy" Qur'an, though.

She says "I'm not an expert on Islamic teachings. Then again, neither are the people convinced that Islam is a violent death cult" (after naming Hugh Fitzgerald three paragraphs up)

Two of the athletes stepped out of the car and were shot in the head, said one witness. The third was shot dead in the vehicle.

"The gunman took the body out of the car and threw it on top of the other two bodies before stealing the car," said the witness, who requested anonymity.

RONIN,
I believe the "child volunteers" used by the Iranians to clear the minefields were called Basji. At first they simply ran towards the Iraqis, If the bullets did not kill them, then the mines did. Eventually they changed their tatics and had the children roll towards the Iraqis (they could cover more ground this way). The Iraqis apparently became dismayed at the vast slaughter of children, they turned and ran away. The children, as I recall, did not carry weapons. I do not know if families of the children ever received compensation.

The fact that we can accept this behaviour so nonchalantly and plough on with our normal type of postings just shows how much we have become inured to the horrors of the moslem world. The entire scenario is insane, deranged, horrible (in the literal meaning of that word). The horror of this meeting should have made us all retch. Can anyone else see just how utterly appalling this report really is?

Had this been reported just twenty years ago the macabre horror would have had people reacting exactly as I said earlier. But now, we have grown so used to the derangment and insanity that exists under the black cloud of islam that this report hardly even bothers us.

The brave Islamic warriors, it has been noted, always surround themselves with women and children whenever possible if an encounter with armed foe (read US Marines/Army)is expected. Then, with a predictable outcome, they rant and rave about the killing of innocent civilians at the hands of said foes.
If the people refuse to stand by the murderers,then they are killed anyway, immediately and without a second thought.
It is without doubt the civilians are beginning to take matters into their own hands, witness the ever increasing militia violence against each other. (some try to call this a civil war)Maybe it is a civil war.
And to their credit, our mainstream media consistantly identifies the killing of civilians the direct result and responsibility of the American/Coalition forces. They never put the blame on the Muslims. Go Figure. Maybe they work for Al Jezeera
Makes you want to gag

The report sure bothers me,if it was up to me,every country that burned our flag and chanted"Death to America",would have about 20-30 min. to live,or how ever long it took for our bombs to hit.After 9/11 i would have turned all that sand into glass.

how the marines were held back by their comanders when they burned,and strung up them contracters,i will never understand.If i was their they would have had to shot me to stop me from going to that smileing,danceing croud,and spray as much ammo,grenades,as i could,would like to see em smile after that.

I don't really see the problem with this. Iran identifies "Americans, Britons, and Israelis" as their enemies. This isn't surprising - at least for the first two nations - given recent rhetoric. So they want to defend themselves - what's surprising about that? Culturally we may have an issue with suicide bombers - but it's just another way of killing. You could argue that it's a braver way of defending your interests than the Brit/US strategy, which seems to be about killing 10 civilians to every soldier.

raffie -

Wow -- you stated a few shocking things in the above post, but I wanted to focus on one statement in particular. You said,

"Culturally we may have an issue with suicide bombers - but it's just another way of killing."

Really! So if a suicide bomber came in your favorite cafe and blew himself up; killing a dozen or more INNOCENT people, including some of your loved ones -- but you survived -- are you still going to stand by your claim that it's, "just another way of killing?"

If your answer is yes, then I think you are lying to both me and yourself.

Lots of posters think that Muslims are irrational,
based on their behavior in the Burger King or cartoon scandals.

Nothing is further from the truth. Muslims'
"insanity" is carefully calibrated to the degree
of tolerance of the country they live in:
they are on their best behavior under bloody dictators like
Saddam (peace be upon his name) and they are at their most outrageous in
liberal Western democracies.

No, it is not the Muslims who are crazy, it is the
liberal Western people. After all, it is the
West who is going extinct, while the Muslims
proliferate and prosper.

raffie,

I don't know much about suicide bombers but I know professional soldiers. The biggest difference from my point of view is attitude. A professional kills when he has too but makes every effort to limit collateral damage, which we define as hurting non-combatants and we also try and protect their property. We do this even when we know they protect enemy combatants. A suicide bomber wants and plans for collateral damage. They are cowards, anyone can commit suicide, it takes no training, no talent and no professional solder would ever consider it. It is not “just another way of killing”, it is simply barbaric. I mentioned several times on this list I have spent a few tours opposing islams so called warriors, I am not impressed and have yet to meet any who demonstrated any tactical ability or showed any bravery. They can use any excuse they want for their lack of ability but I for one don’t buy it. They are miserable, cowards. I also remind people that the biggest single killer of muslims world wide are other muslims for that they have my heart felt thanks. Keep up the good work.

raffie you have it wrong, the government of iran and their mullahs are the enemy of its people! and as far as saying suicide bomber killing is just another way of killing, is correct on that aspect, but that is where you see the great divide between civilized people and monsters. Brits and AMericans do not target civilians, nor do they hide among them, something that the cowards of islam practice as a method of killing.

Posted by: Lulu at May 26, 2006 5:47 PM

Bernard Lewis writes today in world tribune..........Take, for example, the suicide bomber. Classical Islamic legal and religious texts are quite clear on the subject of suicide. Suicide is what Christians would call a mortal sin. Even if a man or a woman had lived a life of unremitting virtue, by committing suicide they forfeit paradise and go straight to hell, where, according to the sacred texts, the eternal punishment of the suicide consists of the eternal repetition of the act of suicide," he said.

Under Islam, a person who poisons himself will experience “an eternity of bellyache.”

Suicide terrorism is a recent development that has come in stages. Islamic jurists recently ruled that throwing oneself to death against a superior enemy was permissible.

THIS DIDNT SOUND RIGHT TO ME...SO I DID A SERCH AND FOUND THIS........Records on suicide attacks for political gains in the ancient period are not many. Al Baruni writes of an influential heresy in the third century AD called Manichaeism, named after an Iranian known as Mani or Manes. According to this apostasy, “the universe is in the grip of an uncontrollable darkness and evil which must be fought so that fragments of good or light might rise to heaven, and the world come to its merciful end.” Providing this justification, he asked his followers to destroy the world, and accomplish this destruction by suicide attacks. When the Shah of Persia pronounced death sentence on him, he said, “It will be necessary to begin by destroying him, before anything of his plans should be realized.”

?

During medieval times, Venetian traveler Marco Polo noted that Al-Hasan ibn-al-Sabbah, a Persian Muslim and descendent of the Himyarite kings of South Arabia from Tus, terrorized the population of Persia by “assassinations.” “Assassin” is derived from “hashish,” the drug used by Hasan to “to numb his hand-picked young men’s (of 12 to 20 age group) moral ethics to the point that they could easily kill on command.” Hasan, being an Ismaili missionary – a lesser known Islamic sect – justified his reign of terror as being directed against the Crusaders. However, in reality, he ordered suicide attacks to fulfill his ambition of domination over Persia and vengeance against rival Islamic leaders. The “martyrs” were promised “paradise,” as illustrated in the castles captured by the assassins in modern day Iran and Syria, popularly known as Fertile Crescent. This tradition based on “promise of paradise” still exists in modern Islamic terrorist groups like the al Quaeda using suicide attackers. Apart from “assassins,” the Jewish Sicairis were also notorious during the eleventh century AD. This information is vital since suicide terrorism is generally attributed to Islamic culture, and existing literature does not move beyond this point of reference.
(SORRY FOR THE LONG POST..BUT IS DOING THAT ISLAM IS MISUNDERSTOOD THING!)

Posted by: storagemanager at May 26, 2006 6:22 PM

storage manager, two points: Catholics, some Catholices may consider suicide a mortal sin, but you can't say that is the view of Christianity. It's not my view. I can think of a lot worse things can killing yourself.

Secondly, these suicide bombers are not suicides per se. They are, in their view, giving their life for Allah, dying in battle against the unbelievers. It is murder. Not suicide. They kill themselves only when the attack requires it. If the attack can use a timed bomb, or an IED, they use that instead.

These monsters are murderers, not suicides.

Hi Naseem!

I agree with your above statement:

"As is the way of the West....you will wait until they detonate their 1st nuclear weapon"

Bush's slow-response to Ahmad seems so out-of-character for our president; given Bush's resolute response to Saddam Hussein. Why he is taking so long to respond to these overt threats is NOT what I expected from the president I voted for.

In my opinion, it can only be explained by the fact that most Americans don't want another war, otherwise Bush would've made his move by now.

Take care!

Posted by: champ at May 26, 2006 8:51 PM

storagemanager, Naseem will rant and rage against the West until another earthquake in Paki and then she and all those like her will come begging the West for help. It is much easier for those people to attack the West verbally than try and change things in their own countries. In her culture she would be killed by her own clan if she tried to stand up for her rights. That's why she avoids talking about the women in her country who are killed for their families "honor" and why homosexuality, drug use, adultery, poverty, etc., are swept under the prayer rug and kept out of sight in Islamic nations..

storage -

My husband has said the same thing -- that Iran already has nukes, and that's why they're making these incendiary threats.

I think you are both right, and I also agree that if we as Americans knew what Bush knows, then we would stand in awe over what he's facing.

Posted by: champ at May 26, 2006 9:30 PM

If Iran has nukes then that makes the decision to wack them all the much easier. That should instill some moral clarity.

What is the Bush-style alternative? Start respecting them? Walk on eggshells when they get angry? Give them more latitude? Dismiss their threats. Forgive their beligerence?

Posted by: somethingaboutislam at May 26, 2006 9:52 PM

Islam demonstrates an anthropocentric view of the world. Muslims only believe in what will ‘save’ themselves. They demonstrate an inability to successfully explore a universe different from their own. They strap themselves up to only what is permitted in the Koran. This suggests a panoramic vision of fear and insecurity, and a desperate attempt at uniqueness. Muslims are in a state of denial, since their ego will allow them to believe they do not have needs or dependencies in the greater world, such as with non-Muslims or any other life on the planet. As if a selected set of humans are able to live in a vacuum. A biocentric view of the world, one in which humans are only another animal in a chain of dependency, is the way to defeat the fear and insecurity found throughout Islamic teachings. The ‘Human’ is not selectively, but rather fully dependant on other humans, organic life, and the atmosphere to survive. Take away oxygen, take away other organic life, and the human will die. All organic life is interdependent on other organic life. Muslims have a desperate insistence on uniqueness and believe they are special to Allah or the ‘creator’ of the earth. The ego in Koran will never ‘save’ the Muslim or provide a ‘paradise’ or this fantasy of an afterlife. The Muslim must come out of the mental universe that wraps itself in Islam, since it is only a form of delusion, and welcome in the harsh real world of interdependencies. After all, it is real.

Posted by: SFOD at May 27, 2006 5:59 AM

SFOD,

Well said. Allow me to add the following.

Muslims view themselves and indeed are taught from a very young age that they are superior to the Infidels. And it's not just a general feeling of superiority. Muslims truly believe they ARE inherently superior to Infidels in every way.

From the perspective of this superiority, all things in all lands are inherently islamic. Ergo, everything in the entire world belongs to them and was put here for their exclusive use by allah. Once they've taken over something it forever belongs to them and it's an insult that you'd even think about wanting it back. They are in a constant state of warfare with the non-islamic world to take, building by building, block by block, land by land, what is rightfully theirs until the whole world is islamic and all non-islamic peoples are in their servitude.

It should be understood that Infidels were only put on this planet by allah to serve muslims. Since allah is merciful and compassionate, muslims begrudgingly are obligated to give Infidels one chance to convert to islam before being sold into slavery or beheaded as no longer able to serve islam. The same level of compassion is only extended to Jews under limited circumstances.

With this being said, one begins to understand why muslims are in a constant state of being 'totally pissed-off!'. It infuriates them, to the point of blind rage, to watch Infidels live better lives, enjoy life, have women which rightfully belong to muslim males, and all the rest, when these Infidels should be spending their entire lives in servitude to their muslim masters. And the godless Infidels are doing all this while worshipping lesser gods in soon-to-be islamic lands? Gasp! Say it ain't so! Meanwhile, much of the world's muslims live in sub-standard conditions; although they'll accept in the interim the non-islamic world's jiyza payments as temporary compensation.

We've all seen how easily the situation exacerbates when the infidels blatantly offend the religion of an entire 'race' of inherently superior people by doing such things as publishing cartoons which mock their prophet or by making logos out of the letters of their god's name.

My point is that things make sense once you realize that they are looking at you through the eyes of someone who honestly views themselves as superior to you, with an increasingly vengeful mindset driven by the conviction that one day everything you own will be theirs and you and your wife and your children will serve them or be put to the sword.

Something to think about..

On the whole debate about suicide bombing being somehow morally different to what US/Brit troops do, there is a further piece in a British newspaper today suggesting that this isn't so.
The gist is that there is yet more evidence of 'executions' by US marines in Iraq - and these executions targeted unarmed civilians including women and children.
You can find the piece here:
