The 100 year Jihad war began 1400 years ago and is still going on.
Subject: ARE WE THE STUPID ONES?
Food for Thought
The war started in the 7th century and lasted through the 17th.
I would contend it never stopped but historically the facts
below are correct. This is why I choke when I hear someone
say we will defeat or contain these Islamic terrorists in a few
years or even 30 years as recently stated by Leon Panetta.
If the latest batch of murders, beheadings, and killing of
innocent Christians has shocked you, maybe you should
read this compilation of historical facts about the hatred
of Muslims.
WE, THE STUPID
This is all factually (and historically) correct - and verifiable:
In 732 AD the Muslim Army which was moving on Paris
was defeated and turned back at Tours, France, by Charles
Martell. In 1571 AD the Muslim Army/ Navy was defeated
by the Italians and Austrians as they tried to cross the
Mediterranean to attack southern Europe in the Battle of
Lapanto.
In 1683 AD the Turkish Muslim Army, attacking Eastern
Europe, was finally defeated in the Battle of Vienna by
German and Polish Christian Armies.
...this crap has been going on for 1,400 years and half of
the politicians don't even know it.
If these battles had not been won we might be speaking
Arabic and Christianity could be non-existent; Judaism
certainly would be... And let us not forget that Hitler was
an admirer of Islam and that the Mufti of Jerusalem was
Hitler's guest in Berlin and raised Bosnian Muslim SS
Divisions: the 13th and 21st Waffen SS Divisions who
killed Jews, Russians, Gypsies, and any other "subhumans".
Reflecting:
A lot of Canadian & Americans have become so insulated
from reality that they imagine that America can suffer defeat
without any inconvenience to themselves.
Pause a moment, reflect back. These events are actual events
from history. They really happened! Do you remember?
1. In 1968, Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed by a Muslim male.
2. In 1972 at the Munich Olympics, athletes were kidnapped
and massacred by Muslim males.
3. In 1972 a Pan Am 747 was hijacked and eventually diverted
to Cairo where a fuse was lit on final approach. It was blown
up shortly after landing by Muslim males.
4. In 1973 a Pan Am 707 was destroyed in Rome, with 33
people killed, when it was attacked with grenades by Muslim males.
5. In 1979, the US embassy in Iran was taken over by Muslim males.
6. During the 1980's a number of Americans were kidnapped in
Lebanon by Muslim males.
7. In 1983, the US Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by
Muslim males.
8. In 1985, the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked and a 70
year old American passenger was murdered and thrown
overboard in his wheelchair by Muslim males.
9. In 1985, TWA flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a US
Navy diver trying to rescue passengers was murdered by
Muslim males.
10. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by Muslim males.
11. In 1993, the World Trade Center was bombed the first time
by Muslim males.
12. In 1998, the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were
bombed by Muslim males.
13. On 9/11/01, four airliners were hijacked; two were used
as missiles to take down the World Trade Centers and of
the remaining two, one crashed into the US Pentagon and
the other was diverted and crashed by the passengers.
Thousands of people were killed by Muslim males.
14. In 2002, the United States fought a war in Afghanistan
against Muslim males.
15. In 2002, reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and beheaded
by---you guessed it was a Muslim male.
(Plus two other American journalists were just beheaded)
16. In 2013, Boston Marathon Bombing 4 Innocent people
including a child killed, 264 injured by Muslim males.
In 2014 Canada was attacked in Québec and Ottawa...
No, I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you?
So, to ensure we Canadian & Americans never offend anyone,
particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners
will no longer be allowed to profile certain people.
So, ask yourself "Just how stupid are we???"
Absolutely No Profiling!
They must conduct random searches of 80-year-old women,
little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret
agents who are members of the President's security detail,
85-year old, Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of
Honor winner and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave
Muslim Males, alone lest they be guilty of profiling.
Ask yourself "Just how stupid are we?"
Have the Canadian & American people completely lost
their minds or just their Power of Reason???
Let's send this to as many people as we can so that the
Gloria Alreds and other stupid attorneys, along with
Federal Justices, that want to thwart common sense,
feel ashamed of themselves -- if they have any such sense.
As the writer of the award winning story 'Forrest Gump' s

Russia just launched airstrikes in Syria. The Taliban just retake a city in Afghanistan. Nothing is happening in Yemen.

We have Australian citizens and we have a defence force......We have Muslims in Australia and we have the Muslim army of radicals
Do we really need a an Islamic school here to teach the radicals to kill homosexuals, apostates ( those who renounce their former belief)...I note no mention was made of Christians and infidels but you can bet your boots they would secretly be included.
There is trouble with a Capital T" on the way in Australia and it is time to clamp down on the preachers of violence...What do we do?.....What for another disaster to happen when more innocent people get killed.
I would not be surprised to see a group of anti Muslims taking things into their own hands.

In Islamic theology, the purpose of da’wah is to invite Muslims and non-Muslims to understand the worship of Allah.
Indian “televangelist” Dr Naik has been banned from countries including Britain, Canada and parts of India for his rhetorical support for terrorist leader Osama bin Laden.
He has recommended capital punishment for homosexuals and apostates and has been quoted saying “every Muslim should be a terrorist” and asserting men’s “rights” to beat their wives, as long as they do it lightly, so as not to leave a mark.
Sheik Deedat, who died in 2005, was a South African Muslim missionary of Indian descent whose books have been banned from sale in France since 1994 for being “violently anti-Western, anti-Semitic and inciting to racial hate.”
His da’wah centre was heavily financed by the bin Laden family and Deedat praised Osama bin Laden after meeting him.
Deakin corporate communications director Sarah Dolan yesterday said there were no clear grounds to cancel the event at the last minute.
“Nevertheless, we will closely watch how the group represent and conduct themselves,” she said.
“As a university we are committed to the fair and open *exchange of ideas, but we draw the line not just at anyone promoting or justifying violent extremism but also at any malicious expression of exclusivism intended to encourage people to view others in a way that is disrespectful or hateful.”

When they stop a Christian coming in because the femanazis don't want him, but are happy to allow radical muslims in for their conferences........
Free speech, only on their terms.

They wonder where a 15 year old would get a gun .....
From a political party of course.

Is Malcolm Turnbull playing with fire with his association with the UN on Human Rights?
Jennifer Oriel has presented some facts about the UN which I have personally been suspicious about and have mentioned on previous occasions on the ASF....The UN want World government and are embracing Islam and communism together ......Bank-Ki-Moon is regarded as a GREENIE who is very far to the left as can be......This man even defended the lies told by our Human Rights Commisioner Gillian Triggs.......
Where is the UN Human Rights while such killings are being carried out by those barbarians from ISIS......I watched Four Corners tonight whereby there is a secret group risking their lives to save women and girls as young as of 9 years of age from ISIS.....The stories they told were unbelievable......One young girl of no more than 16 was Gang raped up to 16 times in one day.
Where is the UN Human Rights?....They are turning a blind to it......They are as useless as a toothless tiger and Tunrbull seems to be going along with them.
I am beginning to wonder whether the right decision was made to dump Abbott.
http://www.theaustralian.com.au/opi...th-with-ideology/story-e6frg6zo-1227556738266
In his first month as Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull’s most decisive actions have been in cultural and international relations. His government has signed Australia up to the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, announced a bid for membership of the Security Council and declared candidacy for a seat on the Human Rights Council.
The multilateral moves have taken a nation accustomed to Tony Abbott’s more hawkish foreign policy by surprise. While the renewal of soft power relations with the UN may be viewed favourably, Australia’s new era of cosmopolitanism should be tempered by political realism.
Even ardent advocates of the classical liberal ideals that inspired the Universal Declaration of Human Rights are beginning to recognise there is something rotten in the heart of the UN. Since the turn of the century, it has been beset by corruption and a culture of profligacy which would likely elicit strong criticism were the organisation a private enterprise. But it is the emerging culture of dishonesty at the UN which poses the greatest threat to its legitimacy as an independent and trustworthy arbiter of human rights and justice worldwide.
Dishonesty and double standards mark the rise of the UN in the realm of 21st-century human rights. In Australia, Europe, Canada and the US, human rights commissions have undermined evidentiary standards by supplanting empirical truth with emotionalism, campaigned against border integrity, criticised national security policy, engaged in judicial activism and sought to censor freethinkers. They have been unrelenting in the pursuit of a neo-Marxist social agenda that respects neither parliamentary process nor the views of citizens who pay their wages.
The most pressing problem with UN human rights advocates, however, is their use of dishonesty to achieve political ends. When *attorney-general George Brandis rightly criticised Australian Hu*man Rights Commission president Gillian Triggs for fibbing about the presence of armed guards at immigrant processing centres, he was accused of violating her human rights.
Rather than correcting Triggs’s misrepresentation of the truth, the UN defended it.
Michel Forst, the UN special rapporteur on human rights defenders, asked the government to explain its actions while condemning its alleged violation of Triggs’s rights. The violation of truth was not raised as a matter of vital interest. While that may offend our moral sensibilities, it is consistent with UN values.
The UN has created a new value system where the truth is subordinated to human rights activism. For example, in the report Human Rights Defenders, it states that the “critical test” of a human rights defender is not to be correct — to base their case on objective and validated truth — but to pursue rights. Human rights have been transformed into a master ideology that transcends truth.
As history has shown, the supersession of objective truth with political ideology produces big lies. The big lie of the modern age is that secure-border policy produces more harm to humankind than it prevents. The UN is a powerful purveyor of the lie that effectively protects people-smugglers and frequently proves lethal to their human cargo.
In the organisation’s latest attack on Australia’s highly successful secure-border policy, UN migrant rights rapporteur Francois Crepeau whipped up a media storm on the false claim he was denied adequate access to immigration centres.
The leftist media reported Crepeau’s hysterical claims as though they constituted fact. Nowhere was his history of criticising conservative government policy reported. His recent attack describing defence of the continuous historical tradition of British culture as “bull****” went unremarked. No one questioned his ability to conduct an impartial investigation into Australia’s immigration processing centres given he is one of only eight council members of the Global Detention Project, an activist group highly critical of such centres.
The Turnbull government passed its first test on border security by refusing to submit to Crepeau’s fantastical claims. But it faces an uphill battle to convince the electorate that deeper engagement with the UN is in the national interest and will produce return on investment.

The Turnbull government passed its first test on border security by refusing to submit to Crepeau’s fantastical claims. But it faces an uphill battle to convince the electorate that deeper engagement with the UN is in the national interest and will produce return on investment.

I seem to recall you were never a fan on Malcolm, preferring Scott Morrison instead?
I'm also guessing you aren't a fan of importing 'those" kind of brainwashed ghetto people?
