    “Cool clock kid”

    Clear text from President Obama: “Muslims are off limits. If you see something – ignore it! Move along.. this is nothing like Boston.”

    And all America bows to allah the false god.

    Satan… Alive and well in the West.

      Allah is called “The Great Deceiver”…That in Judeo-Christian terms is Satan, “The Father of Lies”.

    So they wouldn’t talk to anyone except news outlets and other moslems, but are suing the school.
    Now they will have to talk and show what they have and what they intended.

    Hope the school has a good attorney and shreds their *suit* much like so many shredded the *clock* idea when we first heard the story. Also hope the family finds what the inside of jail looks like.

      Yet the same day “the event” happened President Obama invites the kid to the White House. Something tells me the family will be very well taken C.A.I.R. of by this sitting President and The Muslim Brotherhood.

      and will the media C.A.I.R. to ask how that may be?

      I seriously doubt it.

    There were bombs that went off and is going off even as we read and watch this-
    just weeks ago a young man left his backpack in a hindu shrine in Bangkok that went off killing 20 people and maiming dozens.

    Bombs meanwhile went off even in mosques all over Middle East this Ramzan called Bloody Ramadan.

    There is Madrid, London buses, Moscow Metro, Mumbai…

    Yet this kid had the sick head to think of assembling deliberately a clock to look llike a bomb and giggle!

    Really…what was his point?

    More than that- what are these Jerks from White House to Corporate honchos and Media dumb-heads- trying to prove making this Pervert and cretin a national hero?
    That muslims dont plant bombs? and if a muslim plays on your edgy nerves with a prank bomb- you must smile and take your chances and get blown up?

    The boy tells a benumbed America that he intends to try out the airport !

    And Americans pat him and laugh it off!!

      “What’s the point?”

      They have two motives:
      -dry runs and analysis for future real terror events.
      -psychological warfare

      The point is silencing people! Father is a Muslim activist from somalia. This was a setup to enhance “islamophobia” narrative of the left. As a teacher, nothing out of place comes into schools, as, ultimately, teachers r responsible. Plastic guns r outlawed, why not fake bombs? I can’t stand the media-pandering!

    I initially gave Ahmed the benefit of doubt, writing that this was little different than the clock kits that I built years ago. Knowing electronics professionally, I could see that it was not a bomb.

    However since then I am now convinced that there is some subterfuge and and questionable motives.

    Invention – Ahmed did not “invent” the clock and it appears to be of older design, using hand-drawn PCB layout.

    Clean soldering – Appears to be wave-soldered rather than typical hobbyist hand soldering.

    This clock is of an older design and is most likely the components out of an existing older commercial clock, removed and placed into another case. This would not have impressed my electronics instructor.

    Motives – Impress a teacher or carry out a father’s intent to create an apparent anti-Muslim bias for publicity? Ahmed wanting a Quran in a news photo. Whose instruction?

    Very fishy and suspect. If POTUS actually brings Ahmed to the WH(at our expense) how many more apparent-bias schemes will be generated for publicity and profit?

    The world needs to be more open to Islam.
    — Steve Zuckerberg, who never invented a thing in his life (except the Like button)

    Gavin McInnes should be given the Congressional Medal of Honor. No, wait a minute. The Congress is pro-Islam, so they ain’t gonna give McInnes anything except maybe a swift kick in the ass.

    We have entered a dark world of en masse confusion, all of it feel good. Facts are left to the mist, staged events with a narrative given preference by the elites, you are embraced and sucked into an orgy of ass kissing augmented by prestige and free money. It’s a make believe world, but this ain’t no cartoon.

    “The world needs to be more open to Islam.
    — Steve Zuckerberg
    ”

    I say he should lead by example. He should house, pay for from his own pocket and take full responsibility for some of the “Syrian” “refugees”.

    Suckerberg is part of a pro-open borders lobbying group – I wonder how far would I get into one of his mansions if I were to show up in brownface, wearing rags and demanding, in Spanish, to be let in?

    “Andale pinche pendejo, todo que quiero es una sándwich y ver la tele en 3D. Y el mayor quarto, claro – tienes que tratar bien los convidados.”

    I probably couldn’t finish that before they sic the hounds on me.

    • Alarmed Pig Farmer says

      • Angemon says

        Sep 24, 2015 at 9:02 pm

        I hope he invents a Dislike button soon so I can tell him what I think of his ideals in a language he can comprehend.

        • Alarmed Pig Farmer says

          Sep 25, 2015 at 8:36 am

          Actually, Facebook announced a Dislike button just this week. Really, it’s the same icon but thumbs down. My assumption is that it will be impermissible to use the new button on a Moslem poster. That would be bigoted and insensitive.

      But the narrator blew it by using the R word. Islam is at war against us. Radical Islam is a myth perpetuated by fools and liars who want us to believe that Islam is a great religion of peace. Islam’s peace begins when their global conquest is completed.

      • dlbrand says

        Sep 25, 2015 at 2:04 am

        dajjal says: “narrator blew it by using the R word.”

        Yup. I caught it. Hated it, and given opportunity, ‘ would tell gavin such.

        dajjal stated: “Radical Islam is a myth perpetuated by fools and liars who want us to believe that Islam is a great religion of peace.”

        Indeed, indeed.

        Dajjal stated, “Islam’s peace begins when their global conquest is completed.”

        Indeed, hence the Qur’anic verse, “Peace be upon those who follow the guidance.”

        • dajjal says

          Sep 25, 2015 at 3:20 am

          “ Peace be upon the followers of guidance. Now then, I invite you to Islam (i.e. surrender to Allah), embrace Islam and you will be safe; embrace Islam and Allah will bestow on you a double reward. But if you reject this invitation of Islam, you shall be responsible for misguiding the peasants (i.e. your nation). ”
          Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 188
          http://www.quranexplorer.com/Hadith/English/Hadith/bukhari/004.052.188.html

          “. I will not fight against you unless I write to you (in
          advance). So, join the fold of Islam or [P. 29] pay the jizyah. Obey Allah and His
          Apostle and the messengers of His Apostle, honour them and dress them in nice
          clothes, other than the uniform of the ghazis. Provide Zayd with good clothes. If my
          messengers will be pleased with you, I shall also be pleased with you. The jizyah is a
          known thing. If you like that, peace might prevail over the land and sea; you should
          obey Allah and His Apostle. You will not be required to pay dues you have been
          paying to the Arabs and the ‘Ajamis, and you will pay the dues to Allah and His
          Apostle. If you send them (my messengers) back and do not please them, I shall not
          accept anything from you, and shall wage war against you and make your young
          ones captive and shall stay your elders. ”
          http://www.soebratie.nl/religie/hadith/IbnSad.html#01.2.73.3

          Too many people are unaware of the fact that Moe dictated and dispatched extortion letters to neighboring kings.

          Peace be upon those who follow the guidance means those who obey Moe; his recitation. The alternative is violent conquest. There are many more extortion letters in Ibn Sa’d, the one quoted from above is the most explicit of them.

    How dare you compare Christianity to Islam? The fact that you do so shows me you know nothing about either one. Worse yet, you do not want to learn.

    When will all monotheists of whatever flavour realize that their perpetuation of belief is totally based on the indoctrination of what is no more than complete bullshit! Once they do realize that they may stop fighting each other which is leading to the greatest bloodbath the World has ever seen, and it’s all over nothing in reality except one’s ego status within their false belief.

          Re: “And I always thought (knew) that totalitarian atheistic regimes had produced the greatest bloodbaths, so far…”
          —————————————–
          Formally, you could be correct: the Stalinists of Russia and the Maoists of China caused the most deaths.
          The Nazis were not specifically Christian, they were nationalist.
          The Imperial Empire of Japan ( World War II ) was indigenous Japanese religion ( Shinto ).
          The Islamist war in South Asia took seventy ( 70 ) million lives. I will therefore disagree with you and say that the Islamic Sharia “regime” attack on South Asia wins hands down.

          BTW, I consider the Medieval Roman Catholic Church to be a totalitarian regime, and the Spanish royalty loyal to the Vatican during their massive depredations. The sort-of “Christian” genocide in the Americas is a major carpet pilot argument used against the West. Even tho early Christianity is not like jihad or Sharia. I therefore claim that the Spanish conquest is un-Christian by nature.

          Still looks like you’re proven wrong. The big genocide was Monotheism Versus South Asia. The other one, Islamic slaving in Africa, killed up to one hundred million Africans. So, monotheists take first prize AND second prize. Now you know.
          Monotheism winning the top two spots in the genocide contests yields good reasons to go for separation of Church and State. Clear?

          And I will add that Adolph Hitler was very fond of the Muslims. And he cut a major deal with the Vatican to neutralize the German Catholic political organization.
          “The only religion I respect is Islam. The only prophet I admire is the Prophet Muhammad.” — Adolph Hitler, quoted by Ahmed Huber

          Religion is typically a dirty business, just like politics. I deeply deeply distrust people who are basically religious. And I want to drive them all from politics.

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zzs-OvfG8tE

          See http://www.politicalislam.com/tears-of-jihad/ From which:

          Hindus : Koenard Elst in “Negationism in India” gives an estimate of 80 million Hindus killed in the total jihad against India. [Koenard Elst, Negationism in India, Voice of India, New Delhi, 2002, pg. 34.] The country of India today is only half the size of ancient India, due to jihad. The mountains near India are called the Hindu Kush, meaning the “funeral pyre of the Hindus.”
          80 million Hindus

          Buddhists : Buddhists do not keep up with the history of war. Keep in mind that in jihad only Christians and Jews were allowed to survive as dhimmis (servants to Islam) everyone else had to convert or die. Jihad killed the Buddhists in Turkey, Afghanistan, along the Silk Route, and in India. The total is roughly 10 million. [David B. Barrett, Todd M. Johnson, “World Christian Trends AD 30-AD 2200”, William Carey Library, 2001, p. 230, table 4-1.] 10 million Buddhists
          ______________
          Dr. Bill Warner of Political Islam is way beyond you. And my PRIMARY reference for this subject matter. Christian pastors could stand to learn some real critical theology. I’ve only seen a few good ones. Let’s introduce them to the physicist Bill Warner and the Jewish physician Andrew Bostom. For actual methodology and a good model.

          Don’t worry about me “playing pretend”. I back up my work. I am a professional.

          Islamists out in the wild are way more serious. They kill people and destroy civilizations. They are way meaner and tougher than you. And WAY worse than the genocidal Nazis and Commies.
