I am liveblogging from Las Vegas, baby, where I spoke this morning at the America's Truth Forum symposium. It is a peculiar experience to walk through the casinos of the Sahara and Hilton and find a group of courageous and patriotic Americans who are aware of and sensitized to the jihad threat.
Walid Shoebat just spoke, ringing and inspiring as ever. Last night we heard from Joe Kaufman of Americans Against Hate, who spoke about the activities of the Council on American Islamic Relations, and Harvey Kushner, who gave some chilling information about jihad activities on American campuses.
More asap.

Which suit did you decide to go with: gold lamee, or the white jumpsuit with an eagle done in sequins?

Keep away from the gambling tables Robert. LOL!

My documentaries posted on my site :
PoPe PhoBia and The Suicide of our Civilizations
are most appropriate.
Please link these powerful images filled with irrefutable evidence about the current state of affairs, to your sites, posts. ect. Lets not be silent anymore, lets reach out to the vast majority on both sides who think that our cultures and our civilization is worth saving!

That's why they say "What happens in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas."

Right on Robert! We are with you my friend. Shoebat is great.

This definitely should not be a case of "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas!" After all Spencer and the rest will probably report to us, and perhaps the proceedings will available in some foremat.

Excellent! Spence, I wish I could party with you man. We'd go get tanked after the talks, get Walid Shoebat, Hirsi Ali, Hugh. Go play some craps, hit a few of the buffets. We'd go see Zumanity, Danny Gans, and Rita Rudner. We would have all the girls because you're a chick magnet, dude!

Americans Against Hate? Hey, I hate plenty-Islamania that is. Such a group should be at Vegas too!

Not quite Ina Gada Davida, but not bad.

And while you were busy in Las Vegas, National Louis University in Lisle Illinois, was hosting a conference on Islamic Leadership in American education.
The upshot, how to make Islamic culture part of the American Education landscape.
Dozens of workshops were held over two days which I presume was about implementation.
Lovely, isn't it?

I saw Walid speak in Lakeville MN. He was great. He had some very heavy security. Tall, mean looking dudes with bulges in their armpits. They kept glancing at the doors of the church.

Please Robert, watch your back. I worry each time you venture away from secure undisclosed locationville.
Posted by: Xero G at November 11, 2006 8:34 PM
hope you had lady luck at your side at the tables.
Las Vegas, is that not one of the places the islamist wanted to trash? seems they sure like to party before they plunge into buildings. Have a great time. you can still enjoy life while you are saving it!

we have to get the truth out there, else, the dem's and 'american' muslims are gonna cause america's downfall sooner than not!
i say if you don't like america then get the fuck out of the USA... and that comes from someone who hasn't even been to the states... it's just logical.... don't try destroy the system that gave you a chance to do something with your life in the first place!!!!
at November 11, 2006 9:07 PM
please hire body guards Robert Spencer
.......intelligent ones at that, who also understand the muslim mindset and jihad threat....
because these damn muslims will stop at nothing to spread their perverse satanic hatred of everything non-islamic!!!!!!!!!!!!

Robert:
Wish I could have attended this symposium, I've stayed at the Sahara Hotel many times over the past twenty years and also attended many events in the Gold room at the hotel.
I hope you enjoyed your stay in Las Vegas over this past weekend.

Robert,
How we envy you, rubbing shoulders with courageous souls such as Walid Shoebat, Bat Ye'or and the late, great Orianna Fallaci.
Hugh, how we envy you, rubbing shoulders with Robert.

I tried rubbing shoulders with Hugh, but my sweater got all pilly.
Cordially

I'm beginning to get to know some of the players on this great website, but the LV comments were a hoot - and everyone sounds just a little less severe (except, no surprise, there are a lot of healthy extremists out there...).
Keep up all the great postings and, to Fearless Leader Spencer, maybe report on some of the highlights when/if you ever return...
Joy

Thanks for the chuckle Robert.
The "pilly" effect obviously stems from Hugh's reptilian shell.
Posted by: Cornelius at November 12, 2006 11:43 AM
Robert I thought you'd be interested in this story about Kofi Annan describing the rift between Muslims and the West.

My goodness this is scarry when the UN secretary-general Kofi Annan can say that
"We should start by reaffirming and demonstrating that the problem is not the Quran or the Torah or the Bible,"
"Indeed, I have often said that the problem is never the faith, it is the faithful and how they behave towards each other."
He obviously hasnt read the last three quarter of the Quran and others of their holy books... What hope have we when our leaders dont read what we are up against...dont they realise that these terrorists are only being the best of Muslims, they are good muslims and doing what they are told to do and they are only following the example of their beloved leader who did just the same...
Because of their continual reluctance to read these books our leaders deserve all that they get but we who are trying to wake the world up will also suffer..

I am beginning to think that Muslims have won, what do the rest of you think,, do we have any hope, do you see any sign of a wakening, enough to stop this horror...?????????????
