The fall of the Great City, Constantinople, 1453: Past is prelude

The "smartest president ever" grew up Muslim, yet he lies about Islam to those who elected him.  He warns us to avoid "jumping to conclusions" about his (former?) fellow coreligionists-of-peace slaughtering Americans to shouts of "Allahu akbar!" The mayor betrayer of New York, Michael Bloomberg, green-lights the Green Plague's latest jihad factory in what would have been the shadow of the Twin Towers, except that Muslims obliterated them, slaughtering thousands of innocents in the process. And here is the governor of Massachusetts Deval Patrick and Boston mayor Thomas Menino facilitating jihad in the land of the Adamses and Revere:

Certainly not what the Sons of Liberty had in mind.

Where's Paul Revere when you need him?

What does any of this have to do with the fall of Constantinople so many centuries ago?  Only that, just as petty rivalries, incompetence, and betrayal weakened the Great City so that it could no longer resist the jihad waged against it, so today we face the same uncompromising, relentless evil.

At least the Romans knew enough to fight back. Our leaders usher the Ottomans into the city. This is what awaits the West:

The Turks had sought to enter the city with a fanatic spirit because the Prophet, in the Qur’an, offered them a special place in paradise. Sultan Mehmet only mimicked the Prophet Muhammad when he said, “…even if some of us should die, as is natural in war, and meet our destined end, you know well from the Qur’an what the Prophet says, ‘that he who dies in battle shall dine whole in body with Mahomet, and drink with him in paradise and he shall take his rest in a green spot and fragrant with flowers, enjoying the company of women and lovely boys and virgins and he will bathe in gorgeous baths. All these things he will enjoy in that place by God’s favor.’” Despite facing such great odds, the Byzantines would defend their ancient Christian capital with great tenacity against the armies of Mehmet.

[. . .]

When they were finished, with their preparations, the Ottomans began blowing trumpets throughout their camp, along with sounding the castanets and tambourines, to announce that the Sultan would make a proclamation to his soldiers. Mehmet said to his men, “Children of Mahomet, be of good cheer. Tomorrow we shall have so much wealth that we shall be all of gold, and from the beards of Greeks we shall make leashes to tie up our dogs, and their wives and their sons shall be our slaves; so be of good cheer children of Mahomet, and be ready to die with a stout heart for the love of our Mahomet.” That night so many fires were lit in the Turkish camp that it appeared to the defenders as if the very walls were on fire, thus causing more panic in the city.

A picture is worth a thousand words, but one ounce of common human decency would have been more appreciated

Muslim outreach after prayer. Coming to a sidewalk near you, sooner or later.

From here, by way of Atlas. Be sure to learn the lesson Muslims and their Useful, Idiot Dhimmis like Mayor Bloomberg demand of you: It is not the rape, slavery, and slaughter in Allah's name and in accord with Muhammad's example that is the problem, it's you for resisting it.

In response to those who've learned that lesson well, I ask:

What sort of religion inspires its followers to murder after prayer? This kind:

"the Messenger of Allah . . . would say: 'Fight in the name of Allah and in the way of Allah. Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war. . . . When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. . . . Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them. . . . If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah's help and fight them . . .'" (Muslim Book 19, Number 4294).

"fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war) . . . " (Qur’an 9:5).

So don't blame the victim or those reporting the evil. Stop the evil Muhammad preached and practiced.

"Chemical Sister" wrote:

"why don't you highlight the evils of Hinduisms as well like untouchability?"

If only Islam would stop "touching" non-Muslims, there'd be no atrocities like the one above to photograph.

Stop trying to divert attention from the anthropophagic elephant in the room. Tu quoques, straw men, red herrings will do nothing to stop jihad.  The problem is Islam.

[. . .]

How does denying the evil in which your coreligionists-of-peace engage "heal" anyone or anything (except, perhaps, your cognitive dissonance)? In effect, your strategy is: If we deny it, they won't come."

Fourteen hundred years of barbarity in Allah's name and in accord with Muhammad's example -- including more than 15,000 documented jihad attacks since 9/11 alone -- prove otherwise.

And to Nashbloom:

I quote Muhammad, yet you chastise: "We have had enough of you spreading hatred messages towards one religion."

That's why I quote Muhammad. I want Islamic hatred toward all other religions to end. I want non-Muslims to realize what motivates the global jihad against them so that they might defend themselves. I want truly decent Muslims to confront and denounce the evil which they worship (and perhaps, save themselves).

If I quote Muhammad and you call that "hate," what does that say about what YOU believe regarding Muhammad's words?

And when you write, "Killing someone in name of religion is mindset of poor ignorant people who don't know the true God," aren't you calling Muslims "poor ignorant people", and aren't you denying that Allah is "the true God"? Because Muslims who butcher non-Muslims in Allah's name and in accord with Muhammad's example have ample justification from their "sacred" texts for doing so.

Being an Islamic scholar, you already knew that.

A rat in the White House

Note the dark grey coat, the beady eyes, the gaunt face, the ravenous glare, the long, thin tail:

(Wait . . . That's a microphone cord . . . .)

"Rat? What rat? Let's not jump to any conclusions."

In an ironic and completely avoidable twist on "The Pied Piper of Hamelin," this time the rat is leading the children to their doom. The Pied Piper of Hafiz*:

-has spent more than a million dollars in legal fees to hide his personal records (including a birth certificate, if it exists). If I have to produce documentation to obtain a passport, qualify for a home loan, or use a credit card -- if a war hero like John McCain has to prove his citizenship to the Senate in order to be eligible for the presidency, as our Constitution requires -- why can't Obama? Why won't Obama?

-has done nothing to secure our borders, but he does invite (other?) foreign-born, tin-pot, third-world, aspiring dictators to our capital to denounce Americans' enforcing extant federal law in defense of its citizens;

-had his grandmother admit that she witnessed his birth in Kenya;

-had his own wife refer to Kenya as his "home country;"

-is the biggest recipient of contributions over the last twenty years from Goldman-Sachs, while using their little "drama" to tighten the government's grip on our financial institutions;

-uses a leaking well as a distraction and a bludgeon with which to punish the American people for its use of oil (quadruple the tax?);

-devours one private industry after another and looks for more;

-succeeded in socializing medicine, which means politicians will decide who's worthy to receive what treatments, when;

-burdens America and its posterity with crushing, enslaving debt and wants to add to that a European-style Vassal-Added-Tax (VAT), the end result being gargantuan inflation, bankruptcy, and military inferiority;

-lives like a king at our expense -- "ready to rule from Day 1" -- while insisting that We the People tighten our belts and inflate our tires;

-defunds our space program and advanced weapons systems development, disarms our military, and uses suicidal Rules of Engagement to bleed our warriors (medals for restraint?);

-has been such a weakling toward America's enemies that the insane despot in North Korea has attacked South Korea, breaking a hard-won ceasefire for which many in this nation bled and died;

-has allied himself for decades with America's enemies -- including leftist terrorists, Muslims, and Islamophilic, racist, America-hating, anti-Semitic pseudo-Christians;

-bows to Muslim and Communist tyrants and submits to Islamic supremacism in the United Nations;

-lies repeatedly for Islam, the "religion" in which he was raised and training which "the smartest president ever" ought to recall;

-appoints those who defend terrorists to inform policy and enforce the law, sexual predators to care for our children's well-being, and anti-Semitic, Useful, Idiot Dhimmis and closet jihadists to "deal" with Israel;

-betrays our European allies to their Muslim and Soviet neighbors and the only decent nation in the Middle East, Israel, to Islam;

-eats ice cream while Iran slaughters its own people and arms itself for genocide in Israel and metrocide in America;

-urges restraint in "jumping to conclusions" when Muslims shout "Allahu akbar!" and gun down Americans or when they try to detonate their SUVs, their shoes, and their underwear, but patriotic Americans, including returning military? They are "potential terrorists;"

-seeks to give those waging jihad against America the rights of citizens;

-he relies on Muslim incompetence to foil Islamic terrorism in America.

*or not. "Hafiz" is a term for those who have memorized Qur'an.

Reports I've read suggest that though Obama was in Qur'an classes for serious students, he was not a good student. So, the current president is either a serious student of Islam and is deceiving the American people about his knowledge of it, or he's a poor student. A case of, "Damned if you do, damned if you don't."

Or, if you ask Obama's "spiritual mentor" of twenty-plus years, just "damned," America.

Michelle Obama admits B. Hussein's "home country" is Kenya

Oh no, she didn't . . .

There's got to be a perfectly logical excuse explanation for this one, too.  From here, hat tip to The Sheriff:

Now, can we impeach the treasonous, allegedly-former-Muslim, Illegal-alien-in-Chief?

Elena Kagan another jihad-abetting, elitist, liberal tyrant and the spitting-image of her employer

So, Kagan not only wants to restrict freedom of speech, and denies the unalienable right to bear arms, but she also defends jihad's sponsors. Is anyone surprised that Obama nominated her?

President Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court, Elena Kagan, helped shield Saudi Arabia from lawsuits filed by families of 9/11 victims seeking to target countries and leaders who helped finance al-Qaida.

"I'm very concerned about her views on executive power and her views with respect to the separation of power," Stephen A. Cozen, the lead attorney in the case for 9/11 victims, told WND.

"I believe she must be asked questions about whether or not citizens who are attacked inside the U.S. have the right to file suits domestically against terrorism financiers," said Cozen, the founder and chairman of Cozen O'Connor, a Philadelphia-based law firm with 24 offices throughout the country.

Cozen recounted to WND an April 2009 meeting he held with Kagan to present the case for his clients – thousands of family members and others affected by the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks who sought damages from the Saudi kingdom, Saudi high commissioners and the country's rulers.

Cozen's suit documented evidence the Saudis funneled millions of dollars to al-Qaida prior to the 9/11 attacks and that the kingdom continued to finance terrorism thereafter.

He was arguing to bring his case to the Supreme Court after it was dismissed by a lower court and an appeals circuit, which had cited the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 as barring lawsuits against leaders of foreign governments.

Cozen, however, documented how both the Supreme Court and U.S. government briefs allowed for such lawsuits in the past, finding the Immunities Act did not hold in similar cases.

Kagan's friend-of-the-court brief argued Cozen's case would interfere with U.S. foreign policy. She urged the Supreme Court not to hear the case.

So, in Kagan's mind, punishing those fueling jihad is "interfering with U.S. foreign policy."

Obama using a fraudulent social security number?

Speaking of "fraud," anyone find that birth certificate yet?

This isn't the first time "Obama" and "fraud" appear in the same breath.  It won't be the last.

"There is obviously a case of fraud going on here," Daniels maintained. "In 15 years of having a private investigator's license in Ohio, I've never seen the Social Security Administration make a mistake of issuing a Connecticut Social Security number to a person who lived in Hawaii. There is no family connection that would appear to explain the anomaly."

[. . .] 

Another anomaly in the law enforcement databases searched by Daniels and Sampson is that the date 1890 shows up in the field indicating the birth of the number holder, along with Obama's birth date of 08/04/1961. A third date listed is 04/08/1961, which appears to be a transposition of Obama's birth date in an international format, with the day before the month.

Daniels disclosed to WND the name of the database she searched and produced a computer screen copy of the page that listed 1890 as a date associated with the 042 Social Security number.

Daniels said she can't be sure if the 1890 figure has any significance. But she said it appears the number Obama is using was previously issued by the Social Security Administration.

After an extensive check of the proprietary databases she uses as a licensed private investigator, Daniels determined that the first occurrence of Obama's association with the number was in 1986 in Chicago.

Daniels assumes, but cannot prove, that Obama took on a previously issued Social Security number that had gone dormant due to the death of the original holder.

Speaking of birth certificates, what does Obama have to hide?  A lot, apparently.

Obama’s high-priced lawyers have built walls around various records or simply made them disappear. It is estimated that Obama’s legal team has now spent well over $1.4 million dollars blocking access to documents every American should have access to. The question is why would he spend so much money to do this?

The president who campaigned for a more “open government” and “full disclosure” will not unseal his medical records, his school records, his birth records or his passport records. He will not release his Harvard records, his Columbia College records, or his Occidental College records—he will not even release his Columbia College thesis. All his legislative records from the Illinois State Senate are missing and he claims his scheduling records during those State Senate years are lost as well. In addition, no one can find his school records for the elite K-12 college prep school, Punahou School, he attended in Hawaii.

Isn't there some hospital in Hawaii now a national historical site for having been the birthplace of our nation's latest president?

Something much more important than a game

And one more beautiful, little reason to preserve Western Civilization and its many blessings:

What can you expect from someone spending millions to avoid proving he's an American citizen?

Where's the birth certificate, B. Hussein? The college records? The master's thesis? The journal articles? Anything? What are you trying to hide?
